About: Hello! My name is Melissa, and thanks for checking out my profile. Im new to Rover, but not animals care. I had a steady client, house sitting two dogs, but that is now too far away. That job was in-house care with my dog and all that included all that comes with it, feeding, playing and much more. Please let me know if I can be the one to help you! I've been an optician for 7yrs and am studying to get special certification. I do work part time as an optician locally. The job is only few days a week from 9-4. With enough notice I can make changes in regards to scheduling. Besides that I love going to the river with my dog or am just as happy sitting on the couch. I like a good schedule: something for me to follow, to know exactly what you expect and need. My dog and I walk in the mornings and after work or let out back on a lead, depending on weather. I am always outside with her. I take care of my cat litter everyday or every other. Swiffer everyday! I don't know how the litter travels everywhere!! Drives me nuts!

About: Hi, I’m Isaiah, a lifelong animal lover and the kind of person who will stop mid-sentence to pet a dog walking by. I’ve grown up around pets and have spent years caring for dogs and cats of all kinds; big, small, shy, wild, and everything in between! What sets me apart? I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether I’m playing fetch with a zoomy pup, giving extra love to a senior dog, or just being a cozy couch buddy, I tailor my care to make your pet feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. ❤️ I’m experienced with puppies (yes, I’ve cleaned up a lot of accidents), senior pets who need a little extra patience, and pets who just need a calm presence and consistent routine. I can also give meds, stick to special diets, and handle quirky habits with a smile. Your pet won’t just be “watched”, they’ll be cared for like family. Bonus: You’ll get fun photo updates and lots of tail-wagging peace of mind!🐾 I’m currently transitioning from military to civilian life, which means my schedule is wide open and totally flexible! Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and right now, I’m grateful to have the time to fully dedicate myself to it. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I’m here and ready. I can accommodate short notice bookings, extended stays, or regular visits throughout the week. When I’m caring for pets in your home, my top priorities are safety, respect, and making sure your pet feels completely comfortable in their own space. I follow your routines closely feeding times, walk schedules, medications, crate training, you name it, to keep everything consistent and stress-free. I take the responsibility of being in someone else’s home seriously. You can trust that I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. Leaving things clean, secure, and exactly how I found it.

Isaiah R.
“If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, look no further than Isaiah R. He’s one of the most trustworthy, kind-hearted, and dependable people I know—and animals absolutely love him. Isaiah has a natural way with pets, whether it’s a high-energy pup that needs structure and exercise or a senior dog that just wants some calm companionship and care. What makes him stand out is his calm, steady presence and the genuine joy he brings to every interaction with animals. He’s patient, attentive, and always puts the needs of the pet first. On top of that, his background in the military shows through in the way he handles responsibility—he’s reliable, punctual, and incredibly respectful of your home and routines. Whether you need someone to take your dog for a long walk, check in on your cat, or stay overnight while you’re away, Isaiah is the kind of person you can trust 100%. Your pet will be in amazing hands—and you’ll get peace of mind, regular updates, and probably a few cute photos too!”

She does it all from expert frisbee throws to lending a helping hand holding an antler to gnaw on. She keeps it calm and collected, comes up with fun enrichment, and anticipates exactly what a pup might need. I trust her with my pup wholeheartedly. She is an amazing human, all pups and humans would agree!”
