I have already requested to book with Jeffery again!”

Houla got more walks outside with her than she does when we are at home - LOL! We are already planning to use Katie for our next trip & have referred her to friends in town that need a reliable sitter!”


“Makayla certainly lived up to the hype! She was accommodating, and genuine. Communication was great as well. Blue did not wish to see her go when his stay concluded. I am already looking to book her for upcoming visits!”

About: I’ve taken care dogs of all ages from 8 weeks to 18 years. I am experienced in working with dogs who have disabilities or medical complications and I am completely comfortable administering things like medicine or eye drops. Whether your dog likes playing fetch, going on walks, or simply snuggling in the couch, I’ll be there to give them companionship in whatever manner suits them. My favorite part of pet care is providing photo updates to owners as they are away from their furry friends! Thank you in advance for trusting me with the care of your best friend. I currently have full availability to dedicate time to your baby! I can come as early as 6am and as late at 10:00pm to visit your pet and give them quality attention and care. I am very communicative and promise to follow your individualized directions for your pet’s care. Wether you would like you pet crated, or out and about around your home, I will make sure they are always in a safe and comfortable environment.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. I would love to able to walk and watch your pets for you. I currently work in the animal field and would love a way to enjoy my passion and make money for my savings. I currently work a part time job and would need to text or have a call about what days I’m available. I would prefer a day of walks, check-ins, and would be open to overnight. I would love to sit at the owners home. I would take them for daily walks in your neighborhood or nearby parks. I’m also good at nap time and daily feedings for your pets.

About: My pets are my babies and I’ll treat yours the same! I’ve had a dog since I was just four, and have had a pet since then. I am a current graduate student. So outside of classes, I will be free to care for your babies. I schedule is fairly flexible and open. I have quick hands to catch the quick ones (like mine) and am very cautious. Please outline your wishes and I’ll be sure to follow them.

“Kay was so good with deuce. She was also very responsive and took lots of pictures of my deuce when she took him out. The service was well worth it and we will be booking with her again.”


About: I'm a freelance writer and blogger and have the flexibility of working from home. I have two chihuahuas of my own. They are both older dogs and pretty chill. I have a masters in mass communication where I studied animal behavior and the media's influence on society's views of animals. I adore all living things. If I could have any job in the world and money wasn’t an issue, I’d open my own animal shelter and animal protection organization. Having the resources to shelter as many animals as possible would bring me the utmost joy and sense of fulfillment. I'm more than happy to brush your dog/cat and offer delicious homemade treats. Please supply a list of any medical conditions or allergies your animal may have. **IMPORTANT** If your dog is not comfortable with people, please do not request my services. I don't want to take any chances risking your dog's safety or my own. Thank you.

About: I have been lovingly caring for my pets since age 6, and never looked back. At 10 years old I began training puppies and have experience with animals of all ages. Let your mind relax knowing your precious pets are in good hands! 🐩🐕🐈 I have wide open overnight plus afternoon availability to guaranty your puppies, kitties etc. are getting plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, love and more. Thanks! Upon booking I will request a thorough check list for your pets care. I want to ensure everyone is taken care of properly at all times!


About: I have a big fenced in yard, lots of room inside, and plenty of free time for playing with your doggo! I have a 6-year-old female maltese-yorkie named Ellie that I have loved for 6 full years. I also frequently care for my friends' dogs of varying breeds, personalities, and sizes including an geriatric golden retriever and a 2-year-old Bernese Mountain dog. I will be sure to give your pup tons of attention while providing a clean and safe environment for them to relax in while you are away. I am also happy to accommodate special needs/requests for your dog. I have a flexible schedule and will work with you and your dog's needs! I am also willing to care for more than one dog at a time IF they are from the same household; however, I will never introduce a NEW pet (other than my own) to yours while you are away. Your dog’s safety is my #1 priority during his or her stay. PLEASE BE ADVISED: I have a responsibility to protect the safety of my roommates and my own dog while they are in my home. Therefore, all inquiries/booking requests may be asked for proof of pet ownership (or other way to verify authenticity) as a means of screening for scams, predators, or other just generally bad humans. Furthermore, I reserve the right to deny service if I am unable to verify such or just get an icky feeling about a request. (Don’t yall wish people could all be as loving and innoncent as our doggo friends so I didn’t have to worry about such ridiculousness ?).

About: I’ve taken care of pets since before I can remember. I got my first dog at the age of 3 and fell in love with dogs ever since. I’m currently a college student trying to make extra change while meeting new people. My schedule is completely flexible and would love to work things out. To me their not just pets their family and should be treated with the same tenderness and care that you would want someone to treat you with.

Virden pet parents share their Rover experiences
Gizelle was amazing. My cat is slow to warm up to people but she was patient and now my cat loves her. Highly communicative, sends great feedback about how my girl is doing, and cleans up spaces she doesn’t need to. Thankful to have found Gizelle, my cat’s new best friend!

Katie was seriously the sweetest person and Loki warmed up to her right away. She had a very calming demeanor which made me feel comfortable with her as well as why Loki probably warmed up to her so quickly. She always updated me with pictures and asked a lot of follow up questions that I myself hadn’t thought of. I was so pleased with getting to work with Katie and will be recommending her to all of my friends and colleagues moving forward.
