Perfect service. I'm down for awhile and Amber is used to get daily hikes. Matt was a perfect match for my girl. He was very friendly, prompt, and personable. Amber loved him. Will use him again

About: I have been around animals, exotic and domestic, since I was taken home in the carrier. Animals are my passion and there’s no animal that doesn’t need loved! I am a first responder with no set schedule, so I would like to spend my free time with animals and helping people out if they are needed. I couldn’t think of a better way to help out! I am very flexible on my off days and would be willing to go above and beyond for your pet. I understand some pets require certain things that may be different or difficult, but I would be absolutely willing to work through that! Walking dogs, doing litter boxes, playing fetch, and giving attention are all my specialties!

About: I’ve been caring for multiple types of animals most of my life, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits and guinea pigs. I have always had a deep love and understanding for animals and enjoy getting to know each one’s individual personality. My goal will always be to provide the best care for your animals and treat them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting your furry companions! My schedule is very flexible to accommodate your pets needs. For dog walking I’m available Monday-Saturday from 9am till dusk and Sundays anytime after 1pm. For boarding and house sitting, hours and days will be determined upon request. I will not be able to board after may. For boarding, your furry friends will have a cozy walk out basement all to themselves with lots of natural light and comfy furniture to lay on. They will be put on a leash when taken outside for walking and potty breaks. I have two dogs of my own, one that is very friendly and would be happy to keep your dog company. Our other pup is older and prefers to be a lone wolf which won’t be an issue because the two spaces are completely separate. And for clients home, I will follow the instructions they provide.

About: Note: In addition to reading my generic profile description below, please read the FAQ section in detail (compiled as of 3/22/2023). None of the answers called out in that section are with arrogance or attitude. Those all are true facts and that comes with experience/knowledge. To some people they might sound harsh, as it is not to their expected answers they want to hear, but to those who can understand where all that logic of answers is coming from, will definitely benefit in the long run (whether it is with me or in general). My name is Arya Naga. I was born in India and through the hard work and dedication of my parents, I came to the US in 2005. I came to the United States with several dreams: To gain a college education and graduate degrees, become a US Citizen, own my own home and start a business dedicated to my passion, knowledge and training of dogs. I'm proud to say that I've achieved every one of my dreams, culminating in my choosing Portage County to purchase my first home and open Summit Pet Resort (website construction is still in the process), where I specialize in boarding, training and grooming. I personally offer services to accommodate any of your canine needs, whether it be behavior modification, dog sitting, dog daycare, training, or simply exercise/walking while you are away from your home. My Motto: Happiness, Wellness and Safety of every single pet under my care. I own and love 3 dogs of my own. I work them daily in obedience, protection, and search and rescue work. I am currently working to obtain their appropriate titles and compete. I am a NASAR Wilderness Air Scenting certified K9 handler. Each of my dogs are large breed, guardian dogs. I have trained dogs of many different breeds, sizes, temperaments and behavioral issues. I have a deep understanding of the nature and psyche of dogs. I also am adept at developing training programs designed for you and your dog to achieve whatever goal you have for yourselves, should you choose to grow with your dog in this manner. Training programs take into consideration your dog's temperament, age, energy level and drive/focus, along with your personal goals. Despite my native accent, I'm a very effective communicator and will be in regular contact with you as to your dogs well-being, happiness and daily activities. I am fortunate enough to have outside employment that allows me to work from home. Therefore, your dog will have constant love and attention. Along with the essentials of food and water and any necessary medication (if needed), your dog will receive consistent exercise (fetch, tug, ball time, etc.), enrichment activities and entertainment, as well as needed rest. If the customers expect me to use my food for feeding, i am very much ok to do it at a REASONABLE PRICE, provided the customer pup has no sensitivity to change of kibble brand I work from home all day. So i can accommodate to whatever the needs are. I can create good exercise activities to entertain, work and tire your dog out through fetch, agility and other playful activities. Every pet’s care is customized to the individual pup’s need as well as his/her owner’s requirements. But in general every single pet under my care will always be in constant supervision with good play, eat, drink, poop and sleep schedules. My goal is to use my 17,000 sq.ft of outbuildings to setup my official business in the year of 2023/24, contingent upon commercial loan and local zoning approvals. Until then, the dogs are boarded in my house. I can easily accommodate 25-35 dogs comfortably in my house in addition to my 3 dogs. But my goal is to use phasing approach to renovate one building at a time and expand as the business grows. Though I can’t board any dogs in my outbuildings at this time until renovations are done (which is why i am using my house), i can very well use one of the outbuildings for training purposes. So if your pup is in need of any training, i can very well address that as a 1-1 session or group sessions by having the respective owner(s) on site few times a week or can do it like a board and train program. Frequently Asked Questions/Additional Notes: Q1) What is Socialization? A1) true socialization is the process of training the dog to become non-sensitive to any kind of noises, environments, surroundings, animals, people, vehicles, floors, etc. and feel the true connection with his/her owner and be able to consider that the true entertainment is from the owner and not from all the other things in the world and be confident and have great impulse control with respect to all the factors outlined above. Most other people think socializing means my dog has to meet all the other dogs and get petted by all the people on his/her walking routine. That is WRONG. Q2) why is socialization important? A2) to ensure that the dog one possesses is a very stable, calm, confident and well tempered dog. Q3) Why did I personally bring up this topic of Socialization in my profile write up? A3) I get this question asked many times when a customer makes the initial connection on Rover asking for a boarding availability/request "hey before i board my dog(s), I would like to setup a meet and greet with your pets to make sure my pet(s) get along well with yours". The short and immediate answer to that is a NO. There are several reasons for it: a) you are trying to make a meet and greet with three dominant breeds on their platform/property. That is asking for big trouble in case the other pet(s) is/are not well mannered or trained, as this is not a neutral ground. b) I personally do not know the other dog's temperament, behavior, personality and a whole lot of other things. I can't let some random dog come and meet my dogs, as I am unsure of how either parties would react, especially with a Caucasian and a Corso in the mix. c) I have worked extremely hard to get my dogs to the point where I want them in terms of their behavior, obedience, manners, etc. But that does not mean, i can trump the breed genetics. If anyone says "it's all in how you raise them", they are talking wrong. This is the most common saying by most dog owners "My dog plays well with all the other dogs in the daycare or dog parks". Well that is one bad area to use as an example. And one of the worst places to socialize any dog. d) Most customers don't understand the breed types/genetics. Most don't even know what a CAUCASIAN is. If you read up about this breed, then you will understand why I am bringing up this topic. Not only I have to be careful in trying to introduce a pet, but now I also have to try to deal with a stranger's presence on my property. I cannot risk too many variables for that initial introduction. I exactly know when and how to introduce and will do that very carefully. And this does apply in general to any dog when trying to meet a new dog (not just for boarding, but in general on your casual walks or at a dog park or at a store, etc.). Most Customers don't understand this logic and when I say I can't do that until I feel comfortable and know the timing is right, they are getting upset and making that reservation with someone else. d) I am personally responsible for the safety, happiness and well-being of your pup during his/her entire stay with me. So without knowing the true personality of a dog, I personally will not socialize or let your dog play with other dogs (be it mine or other customers dogs). Q4) after reading the above question and responses, you all might be wondering, will my pet(s) ever get to play and enjoy or get the feeling of a true doggy daycare? A4) well, the answer to that is it all depends on how each of the dogs receive and interact with others. For me to be able to make them give that feeling of daycare setup, I have to first study and understand every dog that is in my possession and then make slow and careful introductions with other dogs and once I feel it is safe for them to hang out, that is when i let them play in one of my daycare rooms that is big enough to easily let 20-30 dogs play comfortably. If either the introductions doesn't go well or if the dogs feel uncomfortable with the presence of other dogs, I isolate those dogs and give them 1-1 attention, play time, walk and fetch times. Q5) Based on the socialization explanation above, does that mean my dogs are dangerous? A5) absolutely not. One of my dogs is a service dog working as a Search and Rescue Dog to find missing and dead people. and in order to get accepted to any working club, the dog should be friendly with people and other dogs (though they don't allow meeting with other dogs 95% of the times). But I cannot change the breed genetics of a Corso or a Caucasian or Dutch or to that matter any dog breed. It is just taking that extra precaution so that no one is in trouble, in case anything happens. Q6) Will the customers dogs ever meet my dogs or other Customers dogs? A6) Yes of course. Only if i feel it is safe for them meet. There are several instances where customers dogs were playing with my dogs and customers dogs playing with other customers dogs, and I have a zillion videos to prove that. Unfortunately, due to Rover's Technical features limitations, I can't upload videos to my personal profile. I can only upload pics. But I have sent several videos of such instances to the customers and all of them were happy. Q7) the other most frequently asked question to me is about Where will my dogs stay? and how long will they stay there? A7) as called out in my profile, as my outer buildings are in no shape or form to accept boarding at this moment, I am boarding the dogs in my HOUSE. My profile shows the pics of where the dogs will stay and how they are housed. Each dog will get his/her own individual crate, very well sufficient enough to host the pet. Between 7am-12/1am everyday, the dogs will go out every 2-3 hours and get 20-30 mins of non stop play or walk (relative to the dog's health, age, activity, etc. levels) so that by the end of the break time, they all come in the house tired and would want to lie down and rest. In that way, they go back into the crates and get break for 2-3 hours and again the loop repeats till the end of the night. I have several videos as proof that I sent out to several customers with regards to this. So, I REST ASSURE YOU, your PET will NOT BE CAGED for hours together. I would never do that to any pet (be it mine or customers). some of the customers that hit me up with boarding inquiry mention that their pet free roams in their house and they have similar expectations. I am sorry to burst the bubble, but I don't operate like that. This is for several reasons: a) if i let one or two or few pets free roam, the others will get jealous and I will have to put up with constant barking or whining, etc. From June 2022 till date, I have had only 7 dogs that fell under the nuisance barking type. But other than that, I am extremely glad that all pets tuned to my setup (though some of the customers said "our dog barks a lot in the house. So it would take some time for him/her to settle. Touch wood, I did not encounter such issues even with those that were called out beforehand"). b) we all know dogs can do counter surfing, chewing, etc. So if i let a dog free roam, and if he/she accidentally ingests something that was not meant to be, it is very risky for the dog, which I personally do not want to happen. c) and as you know, males usually try to mark their presence. So if one male starts marking in the house, in order to remark that other males may try, especially with other female dogs present (though all or most dogs are house trained, you cannot change the marking behavior of a male. If anyone says they can train that out, good luck in trusting them). d) if all dogs are lose and free roaming and if for some reason, a fight breaks, it will be extremely hard to handle other dogs while trying to break the actual fight. e) and moreover crate training is very important in a dog's life because it is helpful in several locations like at a training facility (when the trainer is working on other dog(s) and the dog has to be rested, at a Vet's facility when the dog is given medication and has to be put under observation, or to that matter even in one's household to avoid accidental ingestion, counter surfing, pooping, peeing, house destruction due to separation anxiety, etc. But some customers who reached out to me in the past few months didn't like this approach, as it does not work for them and/or their dog(s). I cannot make everyone happy. Q8) what do I guarantee? A8) an excellent staycation under my watch. Lot of play or walk times, good rest times, good 1-1 attention, food and water breaks. I want all customers to understand these points: a) some dogs are fine with boarding but some due to their separation anxiety or being away from their house makes them either moody or upset or whatever and might not eat or drink a day or two or few days. This is a fact. how frequently it happens? that depends on an individual dog. b) when such situation arises - i personally will try to give more play time to ease the dog out, provide enrichment activities, etc. so that the dog feels confident or tired or hungry and starts behaving normally. If that doesn't work out, I try to change locations in the house as to where the dog is housed or give free roaming time or whatever it takes for the dog to eat to begin with. But at the same time, I maintain a fine line with this approach too. What that means is, dogs are smart. So if a dog figures out, me being hungry is getting me free roaming time or something to an individual dog's liking, then he/she tries to outsmart or outplay me. I carefully try to read between the lines of a dog's behavior and act accordingly. c) even after doing all this, if the dog still doesn't eat, I can take the dog to my personal vet and get checked up for any health issues. d) as a last resort, I will reach out to the owner to see if the dog can be housed temporarily for few hours at their friends or family house (where the dog knows someone) to get that first food bite to get some energy. This is in the case if the dog goes on starving mode for days together. e) But at the end of the day, I try do everything in my power to keep the dog healthy, eating and drinking normally. some dogs lose their regular appetite during boarding. that means if a dog normally is used to eating 2 cups a day and now only eats 1/2 or 1 cup a day, then there is a chance the dog loses some weight upon delivery to the customer when he/she comes to pick up the pet (all of this explanation is for dogs that stay for a long time like a week or more. if it is only for a very short stay/boarding, there won't be much change in a dog's weight in a drastic way). I APPRECIATE AND WANT THE CUSTOMERS TO UNDERSTAND ALL THESE FACTS called above. Q9) How Clean is the location? A9) As you can see from my profile pictures, I sweep and mop the house weekly 3-4 times a week. Because if i don't, with the amount of shedding my caucasian does, I can fill up pillows, mattresses and jackets. I use the cleaning liquids shown in my profile to sanitize and keep the house as clean and neat as possible. I also sanitize every crate and crate tray with pet friendly cleaning liquids to maintain the cleanliness for other pets. Q9) What do i expect from the customers? A9) these are few things i expect: a) full details about their pet (be it good or bad - either in the rover description when they reach out to me or via a call after they make the generic request for boarding on rover). b) any feeding, drinking, potty, play, behavior habits. c) if the dog is used to his/her own bed and crate, then i don't mind using that in my house. d) and lastly, would appreciate if they can WRITE A REVIEW. Whether it is a good review or bad review, I don't mind. Good Reviews will certainly help me and of course future potential customers (which is why I have over 100 five star ratings over a period of 12 months, thanks to all those who provided the reviews) and bad reviews will definitely help me correct my mistakes (if any). Q10) CHECK YOUR DOG BEFORE YOU LEAVE A10) What i mean by this is: this is the backstory: Recently, a customer boarded her small dog (about 10 lbs) from Dec 26th - Jan 3rd with me. But as of Jan 13th, I got a text message from her, claiming I did something to her dog and she found bite marks under the dog's armpit below right elbow and she sends me a picture. a) first of all that was a false claim, because 90% of the times her dog was walked alone which was shown in the videos I sent. b) Secondly, the only time she was with another dog was also on a leash and the dog is very good temperament wise. Other than that, once the dog(s) come back in to my house after their walks or play, they all stay in their individual crates, including my own dogs. c) the pic that she sent me shows more like a rash using a vest than a bite mark and if it was a bite mark, I personally don't know what the customer has done or taken her dog to in the two weeks to get something happen to the dog and trying to pull that crap on me. d) even if she wants to claim that, she will not stand a chance in terms of the tests i am going to put her dog and my dogs and the customer dogs her dog was with in the videos in terms of temperament. Because as a human, you can lie, but dogs don't lie, as their behavior is straightforward. If they don't like you, they will show it and if they do like, they will exhibit that too. So the customer can claim all that she wants, but me as a person who understands dogs very well, she will 1000% fail here. e) only bad part from my end was, I never have checked the dogs thoroughly in terms of any previous injuries or bite or wound marks like that, both at the time of pick up or drop off, thinking I can trust the customers. But thanks to this customers, she taught me a realization point once again that "animals are more trustworthy than humans". So moving forward, I will definitely check or will ask the customer to show every inch of the dog's body for any kind of wounds or anything like that (just like they check a rental car before handing it over to a customer for rent). and I will do the same during pick up time. Once the dog is picked up after checking and crosses my property lines, I have no relation to anything that a customer claims with respect to their dog, as I have no control over what has happened to the dog once it is not under my watch. So this means, once the customer picks up their dog and goes past my property, it is an AGREED AGREEMENT THAT YOU ARE HAPPY WITH YOUR DOG'S PHYSICAL AND MENTAL WELL BEING AND I (NAGA ARYA) HAS NO RELATION TO ANYTHING RELATED TO YOUR DOG AND YOU ARE NOT GOING TO INVOLVE ME IN ANY KIND OF LEGAL DISPUTES. f) irony is, even if the customer decides to leave me, I am not going to leave that customer who made this false accusation against me, and I personally am taking this very seriously and will pull her to the court for "DEFAMATION ACT against an individual and business entity". At the end of the day, any business is all service oriented. If one provides good service, then eventually good things will happen. But it is also customer centric/driven. A lot of customers expect/demand/request specific things for their pup, but when I request the above few things, I don't get the same in response. Hope I have made how I operate, how I take care of your pet, and other logistics very clear. after reading all this, if you feel comfortable that I am the one for meeting the needs of your pet's boarding, I GUARANTEE AN EXCELLENT SERVICE TO YOUR POOCH. If not, i totally understand. Thank you to all who took time in reading through this. As i work from home, i can attend the pets needs in a timely manner and ensure they are always well taken care of and are having a good time when boarded with me. They come out every 2-3 hrs and get walked or played hard for 15-25 mins each session and the loop repeats like that from 7am to midnight. I give personalized attention to an individual pup’s needs and strategize my approach accordingly. The pets are always provided with required amount of food, plenty of water, play and potty breaks between 7am to 1am.

About: Ive had dogs all 18 years of my life. Currently I hav 5 dogs all medium sized dogs which is a lot of cleaning and attention. I have an Axolotl right now who is a few years old and have had lots of fish and a few cats over the years. Animals living with me or pets I have always considered family and I would treat anyone else pet with love, care and respect just as I would want for my own "babies". I am a college student so pet care fits into my daily life perfect and helps me make cash for college while having enough time to focus on school work. I am available as I have no other focus like a job as of right now so my hours are pretty open. I would always call or text if there was ever a concern or question and wouldnt do something that wasnt talked about before. I am always loving to animals and would never want the owner to worry about the dog or fish's safety while my care. I am loving to all animals and would be interested in working with animals i've never worked with before. I would love a chat over the phone or in person the first time and may bring my mom or boyfriend just to ensure my safety the first time us meeting but would love to go over all the do's and don's for your pet.

About: Hi! I’m Madeline: a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of experience in pet care. I began dog sitting in 2020 and have cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities ever since. For a while, I even offered in-home boarding, giving dogs a safe and cozy place to stay with me. Though I took a break from Rover to work with repeat clients, I’m now opening my schedule for dog walks and drop-in visits again and I’m so excited to meet new furry friends! With a background in 4-H and years of hands-on experience, I know just how important it is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable when you’re away. I treat every animal like my own and pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and nurturing. As a full-time student at Kent State University, I’ve built my schedule to leave room for doing what I love: caring for animals! I’m available for walks and drop-in visits Monday through Wednesday mornings and late afternoons, as well as Fridays and Saturdays. Pet care has become a meaningful part of my weekly routine, and I always make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. For drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets everything they need, whether that’s food and water, a potty break, playtime, or just some love and companionship. I follow any instructions you leave closely and aim to keep their day feeling as normal as possible while you're away. For dog walks, I provide safe, engaging walks at a pace suited to your dog’s needs. I stay attentive to their behavior and make sure they get plenty of sniff time and exercise. Whether it’s a quick potty walk or a longer stroll, your dog’s well-being is my top priority.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, I offer more than just basic pet sitting—I provide reliable, loving, and structured care tailored to each pup's needs. I’ve stayed in clients' homes for extended periods, managing full-time routines while they vacationed stress-free. From daily walks, feedings, and baths to morning and evening care rituals, I treat every dog like family. I’ve also helped with basic training, reinforcing positive behavior while gently correcting unwanted habits. My goal is always to create a happy, safe, and loving environment—where your dog feels at home, and you feel confident they’re in great hands. I’m currently in the exciting phase of starting my own business, which means I’m not tied to a full-time job and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give your dog the time, attention, and consistent care they deserve—whether it’s daily walks, extended stays, or last-minute needs. I'm here when you need me! I care for pets exclusively in my clients’ homes, which helps keep the dogs comfortable and relaxed in a familiar environment. I take time to build trust with each dog so they feel safe, loved, and at ease while their owners are away. I stick closely to their usual routines—walks, meals, playtime, and any specific care instructions—so they experience consistency and comfort. My goal is to make my presence a positive and calming one, so your dog feels secure and well-cared for every step of the way.

About: Dogs have been my best friends all my life- they give more than take. I have had mutts and labs thru the years and love taking the time to give back to them the love and attention they deserve. I have been trained in training my pups/dogs to sit, heel, stay, fetch, leave it, etc. I have had rescues and adore their ever giving love and thanks. I love the privilege in helping others care for their furry family. Update- I am back in OH and available for drop-ins on weekdays and weekends. Please feel free to contact me regarding your schedule- thank you! I always verify with owners their pets' physical and safety needs, inside and out. I love playing ball, walking around the yard or in the neighborhood or parks if near- giving dogs the time to investigate their environment- running, smelling, socializing and down right having fun- sun or shine, hot or cold weather- we'll have fun.

April is the best pet sitter ever. She so great I fly her from her home in ohio to my home in Florida to watch my 15 year old Maltese and my three cats. Everyday she takes time to play with my cat's give them their medication, changes three liter boxes,cuts their nails,and walks my dog . I don't trust a lot of people to take care of my fur babies but I definitely trust April she is really good with them and spend a lot of time loving them. Debbie Ribel

About: I have been around animals, exotic and domestic, since I was taken home in the carrier. Animals are my passion and there’s no animal that doesn’t need loved! I am a first responder with no set schedule, so I would like to spend my free time with animals and helping people out if they are needed. I couldn’t think of a better way to help out! I am very flexible on my off days and would be willing to go above and beyond for your pet. I understand some pets require certain things that may be different or difficult, but I would be absolutely willing to work through that! Walking dogs, doing litter boxes, playing fetch, and giving attention are all my specialties!

Lizzie is a reliable and responsible "puppy sitter", as we call her. Our two small dogs love to see her come in the room! She shows them great attention and they know they are going to get a chance to go outside to play ball or walk around our neighborhood. She is our go-to person because we know we are leaving are small gems in great hands!

Carson has taken great care of his own cat and dog in the last few years. He is now a responsible college student, thus, not having any pets. I know that his experience with animals, maturity, and kindness will equate to him being a top notch pet caregiver. He loves animals, helping others, and following the instructions given. He is a wrestler that I've always heard is very coachable and likeable. And, also, wrestlers work very hard at all they do to get great results. He's the right one to select for a job. Tina P.

About: Ive had dogs all 18 years of my life. Currently I hav 5 dogs all medium sized dogs which is a lot of cleaning and attention. I have an Axolotl right now who is a few years old and have had lots of fish and a few cats over the years. Animals living with me or pets I have always considered family and I would treat anyone else pet with love, care and respect just as I would want for my own "babies". I am a college student so pet care fits into my daily life perfect and helps me make cash for college while having enough time to focus on school work. I am available as I have no other focus like a job as of right now so my hours are pretty open. I would always call or text if there was ever a concern or question and wouldnt do something that wasnt talked about before. I am always loving to animals and would never want the owner to worry about the dog or fish's safety while my care. I am loving to all animals and would be interested in working with animals i've never worked with before. I would love a chat over the phone or in person the first time and may bring my mom or boyfriend just to ensure my safety the first time us meeting but would love to go over all the do's and don's for your pet.

About: Hi! I’m Madeline: a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of experience in pet care. I began dog sitting in 2020 and have cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities ever since. For a while, I even offered in-home boarding, giving dogs a safe and cozy place to stay with me. Though I took a break from Rover to work with repeat clients, I’m now opening my schedule for dog walks and drop-in visits again and I’m so excited to meet new furry friends! With a background in 4-H and years of hands-on experience, I know just how important it is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable when you’re away. I treat every animal like my own and pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and nurturing. As a full-time student at Kent State University, I’ve built my schedule to leave room for doing what I love: caring for animals! I’m available for walks and drop-in visits Monday through Wednesday mornings and late afternoons, as well as Fridays and Saturdays. Pet care has become a meaningful part of my weekly routine, and I always make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. For drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets everything they need, whether that’s food and water, a potty break, playtime, or just some love and companionship. I follow any instructions you leave closely and aim to keep their day feeling as normal as possible while you're away. For dog walks, I provide safe, engaging walks at a pace suited to your dog’s needs. I stay attentive to their behavior and make sure they get plenty of sniff time and exercise. Whether it’s a quick potty walk or a longer stroll, your dog’s well-being is my top priority.

I can’t say enough about the incredible job my fiancé did watching my family’s dogs while we were on vacation. She cared for them like they were her own—keeping them happy, healthy, and loved every single day. From daily walks to playtime and updates, she went above and beyond. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving toward animals, she’s the one. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a top-notch pet sitter!
