About: Hello there! If you’re new to Rover and this would be your first booking, then you can save $20 by entering the promo code: BENC05789 We hope our 5-star reviews speak for themselves- we love animals! We’ve enjoyed meeting new families in the area and helping them care for their fur babies while they’re away 🐶🐱 We only take ONE family’s pets at a time, and we don’t have any pets of our own, so you don’t have to worry about safety or peace of mind for your furry friends. We would love to host your dog or cat at our place- we welcome all animals here! We have a big fenced-in backyard, and always have a stash of toys and treats on hand. We want your pet to feel like they are on their own little vacation, too 😅 ***If you happen to live in downtown Wendell, and you’d rather keep your dog at your own house while you’re away, ask about us doing home check-ins, even if our calendar says we’re booked! *** We have been doing Rover since 2021 as a side-hustle while Julie was in school studying ultrasound, which allowed her more time to be at home. She graduated in May of this year, and now has a part time job of her own. So for our current schedule, there will be one day during the week where she will be home all day, and one half day during the week for me. In addition, we will both be home on weekends. If your dog requires a lot of attention during the day, and is used to someone being home at all times, we understand if you decide to look elsewhere! We absolutely love animals, and our house feels pretty empty without our Rover pals 🙂 We plan on doing Rover throughout the summer + beginning of fall 2025, and then will probably phase it out for any newcomers. We can’t wait to meet your pup if you do decide to book with us! We will care for your pet’s every need! We like to take them on walks twice a day (we need the exercise, too!😅). We also are perfectly comfortable administering medications, if needed. We will give them plenty of cuddles, playtime, and love ☺️
“Noa took wonderful care of our cats, Linux and Array, over a long holiday trip. She was reliable, communicative, and very attentive. She sent regular updates, photos, and videos, and clearly took the time to make sure the cats were comfortable and well cared for. She also went above and beyond by alerting us to and handling an unexpected issue with a frozen hose, which we really appreciated. Our home was left in great condition, and it was clear the cats were happy and safe while we were away. This was Noa’s first time using Rover, and she did an amazing job. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
“Samantha did excellent! On top of it. She's detail oriented and wants to do a nice job. Stayed the full-time and didn't cut out early. Enjoyed playing with the cats during the extra time. Left the house clean. She really did great !”
“Ciara did great doing drop-in visits for my pup even tho it was a last minute request. Great communication and really put my mind at ease while I was 8k miles away in Tokyo. Will definitely be requesting her services again!”
About: I’m currently a veterinarian assistant who has a Great Pyrenees, German Shepherd, Tortishell Kitty, and a cute little bearded dragon. I’m experienced with administering medications and basic grooming. I’m a firm believer that all fur and furless babies deserve love and respect and I treat them all like my very own. I am a full time Veterinarian Assistant during weekdays, but I can still swing by and say hi to the little babies. I can board or home visit anytime during the weekends! I have a fenced in yard and a sweet German Shepherd who LOVES playing with pups and is extremely gentle with kitties. I also have the ability to keep pups or cats that might not be too happy with another dog in a separate area. I enjoy recording most of my interactions with fur babies and sending the videos to you!
“I have a special needs dog and now a sick dog and she was incredible with both. My sick dog would eat for her but not me! She is caring, attentive and all that anyone could need. Thank you Alyssa very much”
“Lindsey was fantastic! She took such great care of my kitties. They hardly ever come out for anyone when I’m not home but they all came out to visit and play with her. She kept me updated and sent great pictures all along the way. Thanks so much, Lindsey! 🩵”
About: I am certified in Pet CPR and First Aid through the American Health Training Association. Personalized Care, Special Needs Pet Care, and Experienced & Trustworthy I am retired and currently an Interfaith/Interspiritual Minister which provides me with a flexible schedule. I am available weekdays, most weekends and holidays for you. My services at this time will take place in your home. I will require an initial greeting to make sure your animal is comfortable and has a chance to get to know me in their own environment. I have worked with animals that have had anxiety and was able to work with them to gain their trust.
“Ladies and gentleman, when I say that this you g lady is dependable, I mean “can you please drop everything because my baby hasn’t eaten in 5 hours” type of panic. She drop across town to stepped up to the plate which calmed my soul. Us pet parents are extra sensitive when we are out of town, she never complained or said no. Sweet and dependable and TRUSTWORTHY!!! Emphasis on TRUSTWORTHY! If you are looking for peace of mind, Jasmine is the right and only choice! I will be seeking her services again.”
“Iyana watched my two cats while I was away and she went above and beyond! Iyana was kind enough to send videos and pics and you could tell how much my cats loved her. She took a lot of time to play with them and she was thorough and very communicative. I cannot wait to rebook Iyana again and I highly recommend her!”
“Louis was a lifesaver. I requested 3 last minute drop in visits. He came to my house to meet me and my dogs on the same day as the request, right before I left town. He was very attentive, asked me important questions that I hadn't even thought of, and made me feel completely at ease. He showed up for his visits right on time, like literally right on the hour, every time, stayed the entire 30 minutes, and followed all of my instructions. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I would not hesitate to book him again in the future.”
“Kymberlee was absolutely amazing! She was so so nice and listened to everything I had said about my cat. Her positive energy immediately made me feel comfortable and I knew she would be perfect for the job! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
About: I am a teacher on summer break! Neighbors and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and visit their dogs during the day. Working with children requires some of the same qualities needed to work with animals. I am patient, calm, nurturing, and dependable. I am currently on summer break. I will be available most weekdays and some weekends. I can visit and provide walks during the day. I am available at various times for feeding and playing with your pet. I love to provide a friendly, safe, and fun experience for your pet. I love interacting with pets. I usually go over to feed, give fresh water, and provide bathroom breaks.

You can depend on me to be on time and communicate effectively, providing you and your pet with the best experience possible.
About: I am a very dedicated and reliable pet care professional with 6 years of experience in dog care and individual pet sitting. I can provide high quality, attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique routine, temperament, enrichment & exercise and medical needs such as administering medications💕 I’ve worked in a doggy daycare/boarding facility as well. From there that’s where I learned how to administer medications. At a young age I would take care of friends and family’s dog’s & cat’s. At the moment I’m have a very flexible due to me not working at the moment. Therefore I can provide options for you and you’re fur babies💕 I have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I love dearly. I feed them every morning and night let them out at least 3-4 times a day but if needed more I have a fence so they can get exercise. I play with them at least two times a day since they’re high-energy.
“This was our first time leaving one of our dogs behind while we went out of town, and trusting a stranger not only with your fur baby but also your home and possessions is--for me, at least--anxiety inducing. I'm so glad we found Nicole. She is trustworthy and responsible, but more importantly she is compassionate, kind, and a true animal lover. Our pitbull was loved on and happy, and our home was safe and secure under Nicole's care. I cannot recommend Nicole enough, especially for neurotic control freaks like myself.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wendell
We couldn't be happier with the care our Sophia provided for our three dogs during our vacation! We have one energetic puppy and two senior dogs, all with very different needs, and they were all cared for with so much patience, love and compassion She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious our dogs were comfortable, well cared for, and getting lots of affection while we were away. Coming home to three happy, relaxed pups meant everything to us. I highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive. We will definitely be booking with ther again!
So great with Ava, my pup. I was away out of town for several days, and I could tell that my dog was loved on really well because she did not act anxious when I arrived in the door or need for attention. I could tell she had gotten lots of rubs and cuddles. Just what you want for your pup when you’re away.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
