We had Jaymee sit for Maxie about 24 hours including an overnight. Jaymee is a kind, lovely young lady- she is very loving and empathetic towards Maxie- I’m sure all animals. Given all her great qualities and how happy Maxie was we will definitely use her again!

Michelle was wonderful with my medically challenging senior dog. It was so reassuring to know that my Jamie was being treated with love and compassion while I was away. I will definitely be using Michelle again!!

About: With 15+ years of experience caring for animals of all kinds—from scales to tails—I’m an avid animal lover who truly connects with pets on a deeper level (sometimes more than with people!). I treat every fur baby as my own and make their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priority. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, scaly, fluffy, or anything in between, I’m here to give them personalized, reliable, and compassionate care. I’m happy to provide updates as often as you’d like, so you’ll always feel confident and connected while you’re away. I am a mom of four (human children) as well as three fur babies- a cat, dog, and bearded dragon. I work from home full-time Monday through Friday, and can be very flexible with whatever busy schedule you may have! I will be upfront and honest- I decided to create a rover account partly due to animals being something I am passionate about and have the experience to make you as fellow fur parents feel comfortable. I also am doing this so I can work a "part time" job to (slowly but surely) be able to afford to get a house with a yard- both for my human and animal children. I would love to have your pet's come to me, but due to me living in an apartment with just a small fenced patio, I will be coming to your homes and can make what works for your busy schedule work for me! Whatever questions or concerns you may have, I will do my best to ease any anxiety and make you feel safe and comfortable leaving your pet(s) in my care!

We left our pups in Kaitlin’s care at our house for an entire week and we couldn’t have been happier!! Kaitlin loved our pups and they were super comfortable with her as well! I was actually jealous because she got way more snuggles than I typically do! We will definitely ask her to come back and I highly recommend her!

Medea is wonderful. She took such great care of our sweet big girl. Daily check ins and photos eased our minds and we were able to truly enjoy our time away. She left our house clean and even did laundry (even though we told her not to worry about it). We are thrilled we have someone we can trust with our beloved pet and home. Thank you again for everything.

Needed to find someone to stay in our home to watch over our six-month-old, 30 lb. Boxer, Esmee for a few hours. A rather tall order to fill since it's not easy to find an in-your-own-home sitter who's also willing to engage with a very energetic puppy. Haven't ever used any type of pet sitting service before, so I was a little apprehensive about giving Rover.com a try. Am so glad I did! Since it was our first booking with Amanda, she set up a first meeting/visit with us at our home several days before sitting date. Esmee was pretty full of herself that day, but Amanda wasn't fazed by all the bust-my-buttons wiggling, and was willing and happy to get to know and play with Esmee

About: I have owned multiple dogs (Barnum, Tiara, Miles, and Peanut were my furry friends) from the time that I was two years old until I started college. I have also pet sat for friends many times throughout highschool. Those experiences gave me a deep understanding of the love and attention that dogs require. I love dogs and would be more than happy to help you care for your four legged furend when I am not in classes since I am a full time college student. I am patient, attentive, and exceedingly open to play time with your dog. It's my goal to make both you and your pet happy by walking, checking in on them, or staying with them. I'll follow any instructions I'm given. I also currently have 2 doggos of my own so I adore pets. I'm looking for ways to make extra money when not at work so any time I'm not working I'm available to help care for your furry family member Pets aren't just pets. They're family. I understand just how adored and important someone's pet is to them so I'll follow any care instructions and otherwise just make sure your fur baby is happy and feels comfortable and loved

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m really patient, whether it’s a puppy still learning or an older pet that needs things slower and a little extra care. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, giving meds if needed, and paying attention to small changes so nothing gets missed. I want you to feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and getting lots of love. my flexible school schedule allows me to easily prioritize pet care around classes, ensuring your cat receives dedicated attention and reliable visits exactly when needed. my routine focuses on maintaining their specific feeding and litter schedules while providing professional medical monitoring, play and quiet companionship without the stress of travel.

There are no words strong enough to describe how grateful I am for Lashay. She didn’t just watch my dog Juno — she loved him like her own. From the moment they met, I could see the patience, warmth, and genuine care Lashay brings to everything she does. Juno isn’t the easiest dog. He’s big, emotional, and full of personality. But Lashay showed incredible calm and understanding, meeting him with kindness every step of the way. She gave me thoughtful updates, photos, and messages that made me feel completely at ease — and honestly, a little jealous because he looked so happy. But it didn’t stop there. Lashay took care of my cat too — with just as much love and attention. I’m not sure how she balances so much with such grace, but I do know this: my animals were in the best hands possible. If you’re lucky enough to have Lashay care for your pets, take it. She is one of a kind. Loving. Professional. Communicative. And above all, trustworthy. Juno and I are forever thankful.

About: I graduated in May of 2025 from the Madison Area Technical College Veterinary Technician Program, then passed the VTNE to become a Certified Veterinary Technician. In school we worked with dogs, cats, horses, cows, and lambs. I have had dogs since I was a child, and I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I worked on a farm taking care of horses for about two and a half years from 2020-2022. I've taken care of pets for friends/family for many years as well! I currently work at a vet hospital, though I am out on FMLA. Unfortunately, that means I can only take on pets less than 30 lbs at the moment. If you're looking for someone to take extra care of your pets, please reach out to see if we're a good fit! I'm currently working full time as a certified veterinary technician at a veterinary hospital. I work 40 hours a week with a varying schedule. Generally I work 8 am - 6 pm four days a week (my day off during the week changes each week). I work on Saturday about once per month. My rover clients will be scheduled around that availability. I currently live in an apartment with a cat and will not be able to watch clients' pets in my home. If I am watching pets in the client's home, I will take care of them the way I would take care of mine. I am respectful and conscientious of your personal space and privacy.

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. 🐾 My heart belongs to my 8-year-old miniature schnauzer, my little old lady bestie who came from a tough past. Caring for her through trauma and anxiety has made me a more patient, attentive, and compassionate pet parent which are skills I bring to every pet I care for. Most recently, I welcomed three rescue cats into my life, and let me tell you, they have completely stolen my heart! Every day is a new adventure learning their quirks and showering them with love. Dogs, cats, big personalities, shy babies, I adore them all. Your pet won't just be looked after, they'll be loved, doted on, and treated like my very own. 🐶🐱 I can't wait to meet them! Working from home means I have a wonderfully flexible schedule. I already walk my dog multiple times a day and spend a big chunk of my time enriching and engaging my pets. Adding your fur baby to my routine would be a joy, not a chore. There's almost always someone home, which means maximum love and minimal alone time for your pet! 🐾 Your home, your rules. I'll follow every routine, boundary, and expectation you set to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you're away. My goal is for your pet to barely notice you're gone (okay, they'll miss you but they'll be well-loved in the meantime)!

About: I'm currently in school for my RN. I have worked in Hospice for a few years now, and for awhile I provided doggy hospice for my last pup (Callie) that passed in January of 2022, she was with me almost 17 years. I now have a crazyyyy puppy. I live less than 5 minutes from my job so my pup gets a lot of my time. I do work around 2-4 days a week so I'm looking to fill my free time with more pups and I know my puppy is craving someone to play with. Each dog I care for is cared for in different ways, no care is the same. Some are very high energy and require time and patience. Others are more timid and don't need as much couching.

However, could be available on some weekends. Pretty flexible schedule as I’m an artist. I do art shows I will treat your dogs with kindness and respect. I do have a tendency to spoil them. Very reliable, punctual and have a reliable reputation
