House Sitting in Woodruff

“Michelle did a great job watching our Gracie. She stayed at the house with her and even watered my wife's plants while we were gone. I will definitely use her again the next time we need a dog sitter.”

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a baby and grew up visiting my grandpa’s farm in the country! My family also had cats, and I had four fish growing up! I love taking care of my family’s dog whether it be walking, exploring, or just cuddling and petting! I have had experience with all types of pets, from super energetic to ones that would sit on the couch all day long if they could! I have experience staying overnight for multiple days if needed with your pets, or dropping in a couple times a day as needed! I also love taking walks!

“Due to unfortunate circumstances she couldn’t watch my pups. She was very proactive in keeping me up to date and helping me find another dog sitter. She said she would definitely like to help in the future.”

“Kaylinn did such an amazing job!! Her updates were thorough and she included a ton a photos every day! My animals fell in love with her so much that even my standoffish cat was cuddling with her!! I will definitely be scheduling her for my next trip!”

“Jasmine was absolutely brilliant! She is knowledgeable and reliable, and our furbabies adore her! She was equally adept at tending to our 3-month-old puppy as she was our old, grumpy chihuahua. She knows her way around both cats and dogs and was able to offer us training support with our wee one. We will definitely be booking her for future pet sitting needs - even if we're convinced that our pups already love her more than they love us :)”

About: I have had the privilege of taking care of dogs since I was around the age of 13. I had repeatedly watched the same dogs in high school and even had my own dogs that I got to help train and take care of. I have a lot of experience with puppies, adult, and senior dogs and a variety of different breeds. I currently watch two golden retrievers occasionally and they are 5 and 8. They sometimes need medicine for itchiness and joint issues, which I have had the responsibility of administering those medicines to them. I have been around dogs my whole life and truly enjoy spending time with them, playing with them, and walking them. I currently work part time and normally have every Monday (all day), Wednesday (all day), and Tuesday afternoon off. I work most of the actual day on weekends (10-4:30), but before and after those hours I am entirely free. The place I work at closes at 4 every day so I am free pretty much every evening/night. Aside from that, I have a very flexible schedule that comes out week to week, so it is fairly simple to adjust my schedule and take time off as needed. Unfortunately, I will not be able to care for pets in my own space as I live in apartment with strict rules for pets. That being said, if I would need to keep the pet with me for a few hours, I have a decent amount of open area around my complex that I would be able to bring a dog to.

“Ashley was wonderful! She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and sent regular updates of our girls which we always appreciate. We’ll definitely rebook with her!”

“Jennifer was GREAT! I asked in very short notice if she could take care of my boys and she was more then willing to work me in. She sent me daily pictures and videos and communicated with me the entire time. She knew I was very anxious about leaving my "babies" and she did all she could to help alleviate the stress. She was wonderful. I CAME HOME TO HAPPY BOYS! I plan to use her for future trips as well as recommend rover for friends. THANKS JENNIFER FOR AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE!”

“Allison was awesome with Willow. She was punctual and extremely outgoing and friendly. Allison sent us a beautiful picture of her and Willow bonding that was super precious. I will definitely be calling Allison for future fur baby get togethers. ❤️💕”

About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).

About: I have my own cat but dog and cat sit for for friends/family often - including my sister’s doodle for 6 weeks when he was a puppy! I work full-time and enjoy working out in the evenings but can let pets out for potty breaks throughout the day depending on my work schedule. I prefer to care for pets in the client’s home, since my own cat is very territorial - he is not a fan of other animals.

About: I provide loving, reliable care and treat every dog like my own. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, including potty routines, crate training reinforcement, and leash manners, as well as senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle care, and medication support. I focus on clear communication and creating a calm, safe environment so you can feel confident your dog is in great hands 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, and I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure each pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and love throughout the day, with flexibility for weekends and extended care when needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules, to keep things consistent and stress-free. I keep a clean, secure environment, carefully supervise pets at all times, and ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always safely managed. In a client’s home, I respect their space and care for pets exactly as instructed, providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would with their own family 🐾🤍

About: Hello, my name is Jennifer Jones. I'm 32 years old from Tremont, Illinois. Ask anyone who knows me, and they'll tell you that I'm a compassionate, dedicated, and hardworking individual with a broad range of skills in animal care. My lifelong passion for animals started young. I began caring for and training them in grade school. I was a volunteer at TAPS for five years, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. I also assisted under a licensed veterinary technician for two years, where I gained experience administering oral, topical, as well as ear and eye medications, so I'm comfortable caring for pets with specific health needs. Whether it's handling, training, or providing medical support, I'm confident in my ability to provide top-notch care for animals, where I will always aim to make every pet feel safe and loved while their pawrents 🐾 are away. I appreciate you taking the time to review my profile, and for considering me to care for your fur babies. 🐶 I look forward to hearing from you soon! ☺️ Pet care is my top priority. I'm committed to balancing each pet's unique needs, whether in my clients' homes or my own. From feedings and medication schedules to evening playtime, I'll provide consistent, quality care tailored to every pet. That said, I work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 6-9 PM. I can still do boarding and housesitting during these times. If needed, I can take the dog to work with me and kennel it there, or it can stay at home with my mother - whatever works best for the owner. Given the nature of my services, I will adhere to and utilize the existing systems and protocols established by my clients for the care and well-being of their canine companions, ensuring consistency and familiarity for the animals in my charge.

“Georgia is very good with Ranger. Ranger is a special needs dog. She follows his care plan and gives me updates and contacts me with concerns or questions! I never worry when she sits for Ranger. She also takes the very best pictures!”

“Great care! Dogs were well taken care of and loved while we were away!”

“Julie was great! She sent lots of pictures and followed our instructions. We knew our fur babies were in good hands. We would definitely recommend her services.”

We have 4 cats and I am an animal lover through and through! i am a stay at home mom of 2 and so my availability is open typically very flexible!.

I am a Rover user myself and understand how important it is to feel stress free and in good hands when you are gone.

“Abby did a great job house sitting for us. The house was immaculate when we returned and our pets were all happy and healthy. We will use Abby again!”
