“Shawna was wonderful with my little Frenchie. Walks everyday, socializing with other dogs and playing with her. Would definitely book with her again.”

“This was the first time we had left our puppy with anyone. Angie took the time to let us know how Molly was doing and sent pictures throughout the week. We will definitely call on Angela again.”

“I wish I could give a 10 star! I am a helicopter dog parent. I will. Happily admit, I've left my dog with another lady who used to work with Rover who was excellent but I can say this without a doubt. My dog has never came home. So happy and energized realizing he had fun. He was exercised. He was spoiled with Amanda just like he is with me and that does my heart good. Amanda is my go-to regardless of the need. Thank you, Amanda!”

About: I have worked in professional animal care settings and worked with different kinds of animals in a zoo setting! I have sat privately for years! I have a very flexible work schedule so I am able to do everything I can to work my schedule around your dogs individual care! I have been trained in various forms of animal enrichment, food management, and know how to notice problems with animals mental and physical well being. I care for each animal based on insidiously care plans!

About: PROMO CODE: $20 off for first-time Rover users!!! EMILYH23876 Hey there! My name is Emily, and I’m a veterinary student at LMU. I graduated from Auburn University as an Honors Scholar in Animal Sciences, and I have a variety of animal experience that I put toward both my pet-sitting business and veterinary career. As an experienced dog-walker and sitter, I understand that everyone's needs are different, and I am ready to tailor an experience for you and your pets! I offer dog walking, sitting/home drop-ins, boarding*, and additional services such as basic grooming and house-care. Although my availability has become more variable week-to-week since starting veterinary school, I always have a clear view of my schedule for the entire semester and will make every effort to fit your fur baby into it. (See the last paragraph in this section!) I am doing this job for a small source of income and also just because I enjoy being around animals! Animal care and intuition are skills I have always been able to rely on. From large animal practice to small animal practice, raptors and more, I have accumulated roughly 1000 hours of volunteer work in different areas before applying to veterinary school. Furthermore, I was employed in some of the best boarding and daycare kennels in Huntsville and strive to provide their level of excellence and precision in care PLUS the comfort of home at an affordable price. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, I grew up with several pets in my own home. Home was the first place where I learned to love and understand animals. My family has two dogs and two cats back home. Waldo, an Irish Wolfhound mix and my best friend, lives with me in Kentucky while I continue school. I also recently rescued two ball pythons that are as docile as can be! About an hour away, my horse lives at my boyfriend’s “misfits” farm along with several other spoiled-rotten rescues. Whenever possible, I participate as much as I can with their care. With so many animals to take care of, we are always coming up with creative ways to suit everybody’s needs in an efficient and effective way. I feel that boarding in a high-volume facility prepared me for this! It's a whole zoo over here. I will care for your pets as if they are my own. My life will always revolve around animals, (despite my allergies!) With the experience and intuition I have gained so far from immersing myself in these activities, I can assure you that I will take good care of your fur-babies, whatever the task may be. I will go above and beyond expectations, to the best of my ability, in order to make sure your pets are happy and comfortable and that you come back to a home as good or even better than it was when you left it. Hire me and you won’t be disappointed! Tips are appreciated but never expected. I can be decently flexible and will try to work around classes! Please feel free to contact me and I will try my best to work something out! IMPORTANT: I am generally in class from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM (Harrogate, TN). We do normally have a (~hour) lunch break-- I intend on making daily (~10 min drive) trips home (Middlesboro, KY) to eat lunch and let my dog out daily (mid-day, varies by week/day, with the exception of occasional required sit-in lunches at the CVM) so, if your dog needs a mid-day potty break, this can best be achieved with boarding!! I also aim to make boarding my most cost-effective option (in most cases) because it requires the fewest trips! *See additional details about boarding requirements.

I also aim to make boarding my most cost-effective option (in most cases) because it requires the fewest trips! When we meet to discuss procedures, I take thorough notes just like I do for class! When I enter your home for petsitting, rest assured that I will pay close attention to detail and take care of every task you ask of me to the best of my ability. I am not afraid to clean when I think it is necessary or beneficial, and strive to leave your home and anything I use in the same or better condition than it was when I encountered it. I will let dogs out to potty as directed and clean any litter boxes or crates at least daily or as directed. I will feed your pets with extra care and be mindful of their behavior and intake. Water is the most important substance for the body, so it is of top priority for me to provide plenty of fresh water and monitor water intake as well. I like to provide extra containers in case one becomes empty or gets spilled. Perhaps the best part about home pet sitting is your pets comfort and one-on-one enrichment. While I have had the privilege to work in some excellent facilities, I have also seen some pretty awful boarding kennels! I strive to make your pet feel as secure, comfortable, and happy as possible during my stay and will take the time to understand each one’s individual needs in order to tailor my care to them! From a run around the block to a nap on the couch, I aim to provide whatever will make your pet happy while you are away.

“Brittany was great! She did very well with our dogs, also sent us pictures. We have had bad experiences in the past with Rover so we were skeptical, but the experience with her was amazing!”

About: I have been a vet tech for 15 years. I love all dogs and cats. I really enjoy spending my time surrounded by furry friends. I will treat your pet just like they are part of my family. I can also handle pets with behavioral issues.. Can seperate mine from them if needed. I have been pet sitting for about 10 years and have a lot of amazing clients. I can also provide references if needed. I will send you pics if you would like and im always available to tell you how your baby is doing. My yard is secure and they can even sleep in the bed with me if you want. I always prefer a home visit with you and your pets before they are left in my care..i find this makes them more comfortable.
