“Kaylan was great with my cat, very communicative and gave me regular updates with pictures. I have peace of mind going out of town knowing Kaylan is checking on Penny!”

“Amber was absolutely amazing when I was scrolling looking for someone I just got a great feeling about her I made the perfect Choice. I was away on a birthday trip 7 days, and she took incredible care of my cat, Arrow, the entire time. She kept in touch with me every day, sending updates and pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She made sure Arrow was well cared for, played with him, scooped his litter box, and even took the litter outside afterward to make sure my apartment stayed fresh which was great to come home to. She also took the time to let him drink from the faucet his absolute favorite thing! which showed me that she really paid attention to his personality and routines. On top of taking such great care of Arrow, Amber went above and beyond by bringing my trash can in and even putting my birthday flowers inside the house and in fridge to keep them fresh for me 🥹 It’s clear that Amber genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. Knowing Arrow and my home were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and thoughtful pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”


About: Since I was a young child I have had cats and dogs galore to watch since I was homeschooled. I also was paid to watch my grandparents 10 dogs and numerous catsl I myself have 2 beautiful cats named Binks and Yoda. I have always loved animals and will always keep your pet active! I am currently going to school at Tulsa welding school but I’ll only need 2 days out of the week to go to school at night which gives me plenty of time to keep your pets occupied! I always keep doors closed to places that might be harmful to your pet. And I will always follow your instructions to the letter because I understand that you have rules set in place for your pets. I also am really good at knowing when a pet is going to do something they’re not supposed to do and stop them accordingly.
About: What sets me apart is how seriously I take caring for your pet—I treat them like they’re my own. I have a background working as a pharmacy technician and EMS training, so I’m very attentive, reliable, and comfortable handling situations that require extra care or quick thinking. I’m experienced with both puppies and senior pets, whether that means helping with basic routines and potty training or giving medications and moving at a slower, more comfortable pace. I also make it a priority to keep you updated with pictures and messages, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. Honestly, animals are a huge part of my life, so pet care fits into my routine really naturally. I love being around them, and I actually plan my days in a way that lets me give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, it never feels like a chore—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away is always my priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks, and of course plenty of attention and playtime. For walks, I make sure they get safe, structured exercise at a pace that fits their energy level. I’m very attentive to each pet’s needs, whether that’s giving medications, working on basic puppy routines, or taking extra time with senior pets who need a slower, gentler approach. I also respect your home, keep everything clean, and follow any instructions closely. I always send updates and pictures so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Alina is awesome! She took great care of my babies and they were so happy and well looked after when I returned home. Alina was accommodating and detailed and sent great pictures and reports each day of the drop in visits. She even braved the awful weather to make sure they had their outdoor time. She is very trustworthy and reliable. Thanks a bunch Alina I definitely hope to have you sit again next time!”

“Emma is FANTASTIC! I received a lot of photos and videos which made being away from dogs a lot easier. Emma is so caring with my animals and is the only dog sitter we will be using.”

About: I love dogs and truly treat them like a precious loved one. I didn't grow up with dogs but chose to get pets once I was financially able to do so. Know your pups will be safe, cared for, and loved! I have a very flexible daily routine so I'm able to give them a lot of attention, whether that's dedicated walks, training, play time, etc. I don't have a fenced yard as I live in a complex. But my pets are on a leash anytime they're taken out for potty breaks and walks.

I’m especially patient with anxious pets, seniors, and puppies, and I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and daily routines. I keep owners updated with photos and messages and focus on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for—not rushed. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, reliable care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits and can accommodate routine-based or last-minute requests when needed. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow all owner instructions, keep doors and gates secure, monitor behavior closely, and maintain a calm, clean environment. In a client’s home, I respect routines and spaces, minimize stress, and ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.
“Jada did absolutely amazing watching out puppers while out of town. Received lovely check in photos and feedback regarding the dogs. She gave such tender love and care to them and our home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone you can trust while your away.”
“Jocelyn is awesome always takes great care of my dog when I am away. She is very communicative and always sends updates. I recently needed a last minute request for her to do drop ins and also needed to extend my request and she was very flexible and willing to help! My dog also has very bad allergies and she is always willing to give him his medication if needed. I would definitely recommend Jocelyn!”

“Maggie did a great job with our pets! We have a shepherd that is protective of the home so she spent extra time with us at the park so he could get to know her before we left.”

“I know my pups are well cared for when we book with Kimberly! We’ve scheduled with her a few times now and each time she’s been kind, friendly and dependable. She’s our go to when we need help caring for our fur babies.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and a lifetime of caring for dogs. Since I was a kid, I’ve looked after my neighbors’ dogs walking them, keeping them company, and making sure they felt safe and loved while their owners were away. I truly understand how important pets are; they’re family. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always provide the best, most attentive care possible.❣️🐾🐈🦮 Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time, which allows me to have most afternoons available, as well as weekend mornings. This gives me plenty of time to focus on walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve without rushing. I’m able to be flexible and dependable, making sure each pet’s needs are fully met. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow the owner’s routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while maintaining their normal daily routine. I also keep owners updated with check ins so they feel at ease while they’re away.

“We just love Ashley!! She is so good with our two big dogs. She loves and takes such good care of them while we’re gone. She communicates well and always sends pictures. We highly recommend Ashley.”

About: I would love the opportunity to love your fur baby! Pets are great and I appreciate all the different personalities they have to learn/adapt to! I’m a working college student, but I can stay with your pet at night and care for them in the morning before work and come back to them after work. My pets at home walk on water. Me and my family love our dogs, so I would appreciate any opportunity to love even more babies.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I’ve owned a Yorkie for most of my life and have regularly cared for larger dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m attentive, patient, and very observant, so I pick up on changes in behavior, energy, or comfort quickly. I focus on keeping pets calm, safe, and on their usual routine. I follow care instructions closely and take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time. I’m typically available after 3pm on weekdays and have flexibility in the evenings. I’m dependable about scheduling, communication, and sticking to each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I prioritize safety and routine whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I have a securely fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, but I primarily keep dogs indoors to ensure comfort and safety, especially during colder weather. I’m careful about leashes, gates, and doors, follow all care instructions closely, keep pets on their normal schedule, and maintain a calm, clean environment so they feel comfortable and secure.
Watauga dog parents share their Rover experiences
We cannot recommend Cheryl highly enough! She stepped in to help us on very short notice, which was such a relief, and she took incredible care of our dogs while we were away. She was communicative, dependable, and clearly cared about making sure our pups were happy and comfortable. We loved receiving updates and photos, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. When we returned, they were relaxed, well cared for, and clearly had been given plenty of attention and love. We are so grateful for her flexibility, kindness, and professionalism. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

Robin is very sweet and is an amazing, experienced person to trust with your pets. Our dogs and cat were all excited to see her each day. She's a great communicator, timely, and proactive about getting needed information before we went out of town. She handled some unexpected events with grace, cleaned the floor of any muddy paw prints, and sent multiple check in photos daily. Would highly recommend!

Jennifer was so good with both of my dogs! I felt comfortable knowing that she would take care of my babies while I was out of town. I also added an extra visit at the last minute, which she was more than happy to do. I would definitely recommend Jennifer. She has a calm demeanor, and you can tell that she really cares about your babies!

This woman is an angel! She’s so experienced with dogs from all walks of life and demeanors. She’s very professional and communicative and worthy to trust with your home and fur baby. My dog hates most people and they hit it off so quickly! I’m so relieved that I found someone capable of handling my reactive, and often unfriendly, dog.

I’ve been very happy with her help with my animals. She drops in once or twice a day as needed and adjusts to my schedule, which is extremely helpful, especially when I like to be gone for church all day on Sunday from like 9 AM until almost 9:30 PM… It’s so nice not having to run home in the middle of the day but yet still come home to all my fur babies, and they’ve been taken care of!

Alicia is the best!! This is the second time she has come to the rescue and watch our pups! Both Bailey and Zoey love her, and it makes us feel so at ease leaving knowing she is taking care of them! Highly recommend her if you need someone to watch your animals!!
