Dan & Kat took care of our babies for a week and it went awesome! In the past, one of our boys has had anxiety when we've left and had accidents. Not so this time! Our two dogs and cat loved Dan & Kat and we wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. From the meet and greet to being flexible on our dogs' schedules and daily updates, everything was absolutely perfect.

Samantha did a fantastic job taking care of our pets while we were out of town. We have a dog that is challenging when you first meet her, but Samantha with her calm demeanor and animal behavior experience, won our dog over and now Fiadh loves it when Samatha comes over for a walk. Samantha kept in touch with us consistently and sent plenty of pictures. We highly recommend her!

As first-time Rover users, we were initially nervous, but Taryn immediately set our minds at ease. She warmly suggested a meet-and-greet to ensure it was a good fit for us and our pets. While we were away, Taryn was excellent with communication, checking in upon arrival and sending regular photos and updates. Coming home was a delight; our house was spotless, our dogs were happy, fed, and well-exercised, and Taryn had even thoughtfully started a load of household linens in the wash. We have no doubt our animals adored her and received the very best care. We will absolutely be asking Taryn to return!

Hanna was excellent at keeping us updated throughout her stay. She was patient and willing to listen to all the quirks about our dog and always kept us in the loop about how they were doing. I have two very different dogs and she did so well with them! She was absolutely fantastic and I would highly recommend her to others!

About: I have been around animals my whole life and I love them! I have a 4 year old kitty named Bunny and she is everything to me. My best friend has a mini Australian shepherd that is very friendly and I love being around him. I also have watched my brother and sister in law’s dogs for 2 years now. They ranged from having 4-8 dogs at different points and I would love to go stay with them, feed them, and get to play with their fluffy selves! I am working limited hours at this time, so I am available weekdays 8 a.m.- 2 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.- 9 p.m., and also weekends any time! I will monitor the animals needs and be there in any way I am needed. I will take them outside as much as directed, feed them, make sure they have water, and love on them!

About: I grew up caring for stray animals. Cats, dogs, possums, you name it, I fed it! Since I was 16, I have routinely been caring for two special-needs dogs and two elderly cats. In summer of 2025, I assisted a friend in moving across the ocean with her dogs, which entailed over 60 hours of travel and multiple airports with two reactive dogs. I have experience administering medication, calming anxiety, redirecting behavioral issues, and just generally living with dogs. I have spent several weeks house-sitting for a friend and caring for her two high-needs dogs while maintaining her home, and I am up for any challenge you place in front of me. I currently have a largely open schedule, with extreme flexibility in order to meet your needs. I can always make time for a drop-in or a walk. I am great with all animals, and trust between myself and your pet is my #1 priority. I’m very good at gentle redirection and positive reinforcement, and I will never violate your pet’s boundaries. I always ensure that your pet’s environment is safe and comfortable, and I stick to a strict feeding/walking/medication schedule for the pets I care for.

About: I am a PhD student in the Biochemistry Department at UGA. I have a life long appreciation for the natural world and with that, the individual personalities of each animal. I have extensive experience with both cats and dogs. At home, I have a cat that requires oral medication so I am no stranger to administering medication. I also have some experience with anxious animals through pet sitting. My partner and I are both pet sitters and we are very active. I am a graduate student, so I'm really flexible. As long as I have advance notice I can fit most people in to my schedule I can only board cats in my home as I only have cats. When I take care of pets in their homes, I make sure I get all their required eating and walking out of the way before I spend some extra time with them, so they dont feel too lonely.
