“Brenda's home was clean, and she was very conscientious about our initial meetup and making sure that my pup was cared for in a way that I was comfortable with. She also sent lots of pictures during the weekend that we were away.”


“Wendy was very reassuring while keeping Sammy. I had only had Sammy for 3 weeks when I needed a sitter for a day and a half. I was very nervous to leave him. Wendy kept me updated with photos while keeping Sammy which really helped me. Wendy has a big fenced in back yard which is also very nice for a puppy or grown dog. I was fortunate she had another puppy arrive the second day so my puppy had someone to play with! :-) I would recommend Wendy as a pet sitter if you find your self in need. She has a lot of experience especially with puppies! You can also read the rest of her reviews as I did which brought me to her in the first place!”


“Cheyanne took amazing care of our fur baby! We were gone for 5 days and she frequently sent us pictures as well as updates on how he was doing. She also administered all of his daily medication and ear drops with no troubles. She was very flexible with our schedule and responded to our messages very quickly. We highly reccomend her to anyone and will deffinately book her again in the future!”


“Very highly recommended! Chantal and her husband were great caretakers for our two dogs for a week’s time — even more than we could have expected. They have a beautiful, spacious, safe place — both indoors and for when they had to go outside. My husband and I felt 100% comfortable leaving them there while we were away. From the beginning during our meet-and-greet through pick-up at the end of our trip, we saw just how kind and calm they were, treating our dogs just like their own dog and providing lots of interaction and play. Also, Chantal was extremely accommodating of our 7 month old puppy’s “puppy behavior” and attentive to the need to go outside more frequently. She provided updates every day (and was very responsive to other questions) and we could see just how relaxed our pups were, as if they were staying with family. We are definitely planning on using Chantal’s services the next time we need to go out of town.”


“Layna D and her family did a wonderful job in caring for my dogs well being and kept me updated everyday with texts and pictures. Completely trustworthy and responsible and I highly recommend her for sitting services. If she’s available the next time I go out of town I will definitely rebook.”


“Holly, you have provided the best and most loving care for my dog, Max. Thank you so much for watching him again, along with Kira, my daughter’s 8 month old pomsky, while we traveled out of town. You offer such a loving home! I feel lucky to have found you!”


“This was our first experience with Rover and we’re a little nervous about it. However, from the moment I dropped our boy Nash off we knew he was in good hands. We received updates everyday and they were always positive. He got plenty of play time and tons of love while we were gone. We highly recommend Rebekkah and I will definitely be taking Nash to her again!”


“Issa is usually shy and hides from people. I think she really enjoyed Samantha. I believe she was spoiled while staying there. I really appreciate you making sure she was comfortable and keeping me updated. Thank you”


“Heather was excellent! She took great care of Wiley and sent plenty of photos so that I knew he was okay and having a good time! She also was super kind and flexible when we were running late for pickup. Thank you, Heather!”

“Nicole was so wonderful! If there were more stars, I would definitely give them. She was so communicative and kind. And I could tell she took care of my pups just like how I would. She sent tons of photos and quickly responded. I’m always a little anxious to leave my babies, but she eased all the worries. I hope to board with her again.”


About: I have always had a great love for animals. Since I was a child with my first rabbit, I have helped care for family, friends and neighbors pets. Through the years I have had several dogs and cats. I currently own a farm with donkeys, cows, pigs and chickens. Here at the daycare, I have my own dogs, guiena pigs, hedgehogs, chinchilla and a turtle. I left the world of people. After caring for animals as a passion, I decided that I wanted to make a career out of it. I left the world of customer service so that I could focus on spending all of my time doing daycare and Boarding. My facility is open Monday thru Friday from 7am to 6pm. During those hours we operate daycare, intake and release for boarding and grooming. After hours we are here for feeding, walking, playing. I own and operate a boarding and daycare center for pets. I can care for and board any size animal from a goldfish to a horse. I live on site so your pets are looked after 24 hours a day. We have common areas where pets can interact if you wish, as well as private kennels. All pets are walked atleast 5 times per day in our fenced in back yard on or off leash. They have plenty of outdoor playtime when the weather permits. All areas of the building, including kennels are climate controlled. We also provide grooming services if you are intrested in having your et groomed during their stay. We provide food but you may also bring your own as well. We will feed on your schedule.

About: I grew up on a working farm, so I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. My family and I bred, raised, and sold labrador puppies for many years. Neighbors and friends have also relied on me to feed, walk, and house sit their pets. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is flexible allowing me to cater to your timeline. I prefer a week in advance notice, but if you're in need of last-minute care please reach out, I'd love to try and help. I live in a very rural area, perfect for walks and outdoor play with your pet! I have a fenced yard, pet-friendly indoor space, and crates for your fur baby if needed. *Please note* I do have a toddler, so if your pet is not child-friendly, please notify me in advance.


“Jaimee and her family cared for our dog while we were away for several days. They took wonderful care of him and made him a part of their family. She is fast to respond and sent pictures every day while we were away! Would definitely recommend to others looking for a sitter.”


“Lisa did an amazing job with our little Venus. She kept us posted with pictures and messages. Lisa really helped ease our minds. This was our first time working with Lisa. We look forward to working with Lisa in the future.”


“Best Rover ever. Lauren is AWESOME! If you don't book with her, you'll be missing out. Our 3-year old lab, Auggie, was well cared for and thrived while staying with Lauren. Lauren communicated with us regularly during Auggie's stay, so we knew exactly how Auggie was doing. If we vacation in the Outer Banks in the future, Lauren will be our first call.”
