“Jenni and her family took amazing care of our dog, Olive Lucy. She was obviously part of the family by the end of her stay. Jenni took her on walks everyday and followed all instructions. Jenni sent great pictures and updates of Olive's time with them. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda was amazing, kept me posted all the time about Loki and send me pictures of him so I could see how he was doing. He was definitely being loved amd spoiled like if he was home with me. Very glad I found her for Loki's care while I was away.”
“Ryan and his Wife are very nice people and can tell they are dog lovers! First time booking through Rover, and would definitely recommend booking with Ryan. My pup had a blast making new friends with their two dogs. I enjoyed being able to schedule a meet and greet prior for my pups stay. They were accommodating and flexible with me and would send me updates with pictures. I would book again with them in the future!”
“First time with Ashley and she was great! Our dog Mia was a rescue, and she brought some quirky things with her when we got her. Ashley was able to bond with Mia and made her feel comfortable and secure. We will definitely use her again and recommend her highly especially if you have a pet with some anxiety issues.”
“So grateful for the excellent care they provided! We were so nervous about leaving our 11 year old dog with separation anxiety with someone else. Megan sent photos and updates daily and it was incredibly clear that Lily was having a great time and was so well cared for. Lily got daily walks, playtime, and cuddles. Lily takes medication multiple times a day that they had no problem administering. I ended up feeling like Lily was on a little vacation while we were away. Truly cannot say enough great things about the care they provided!”
“Michelle was incredible! She took amazing care of my baby and sent me lots of adorable pictures. I highly recommend Michelle! She loved animals and will treat your fur baby like it’s her own. :)”
“I cannot recommend Ralph highly enough! From the moment we first met, it was clear that he has a genuine love for animals and an incredible ability to connect with him. Leaving my dog, Butters, in someone else’s care is never easy, but Ralph made the process completely stress-free and gave me total peace of mind. Throughout the entire stay, Ralph went above and beyond to ensure that Butters was happy, healthy, and loved. He kept me updated with regular photos, videos, and messages, which made me feel like I was still part of my pup’s day-to-day life. It was so heartwarming to see Butters smiling, playing, and clearly having the time of his life! When I returned, I could tell that Butters had been so well cared for—He was happy, relaxed, and clearly adored their time with Ralph. It was as if Butters had gone on a doggie retreat. I honestly think my dog misses him already! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly passionate about what they do, look no further than Ralph. He is a gem, and I feel so lucky to have found him. Thank you, Ralph, for treating Butters like your own and for giving me the confidence to leave my furry family member in your care. You are the best! 10/10, would absolutely book again!”
“Dana was fantastic with our dog Dakota.Dakota is a little special dog who needs a lot of love and a lot of attention. She was abused before we got her and it just takes her a while in order to trust people by the third day. Dakota was very very comfortable when we went to pick her up. She was in attack mode and protecting Dana, which I take as a good sign because she only protects the people she loves. Dana was very accommodating to us. We had a problem with pick up, but she made it work I know when I go on our next trip we will be using Dana again because our dog Dakota loves her”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 30+ years. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes and personalities, as well as ages from puppies to seniors. From energetic walks to cozy snuggles, I believe in nurturing, exercising, loving, and maintaining routines for dogs. I am sensitive to the cues for playtime, cuddles, and when a dog needs quiet time. My speciality is being present to the daily needs of family pets, which can include dosing medicine, bath time, ear cleaning, and training routines. I Pet care naturally fits into my daily and weekly routine because I am building my schedule around it. As a part-time pet sitter and walker, I am fortunate to have the flexibility to give each pet my full attention for morning, midday, and evening walks, playtime, feedings and care. I do not have a fenced yard and would require a leash for your pet at my home. Please provide a leash for let-outs and walks, a bed, and a crate in case of your pet needs a secure environment. Pets are not allowed on furniture or human beds.
“Amazingly accommodating. Derek was fair, flexible, friendly, and frankly, fun to work with. He kept us updated throughout the whole process. I think Misty was a bit sad to leave there to be honest. Thanks Derek ✌️”
“Eric and Polly are fantastic! They are so caring and Colby loves spending time there! We can go on vacation knowing that he feels at home and that he is in a safe and loving environment.”
“Sharon was awesome to our kitten Moon! Sharon dealt with Moon's skittishness in the beginning like a pro, and was very understanding and patient. We really appreciated the peace of mind while out of town.”
“Let me tell you about David, this guy is phenomenal. This is our third time leaving our 15 month old Golden Doodle and he is so good with our Chloe. He spends so much time with her and you can tell he really cares about animals. His family plays and spends time somChloemdoes not have time to miss us. He sends us pics and videos throughout our vacation and it just makes my wife feel so comfortable knowing she is in GREAT hands. Highly recommend David to watch your pup, he has a great family.”
“We were nervous for our first time having a dog sitter for our pup, but Christina was great! Very communicative and our little guy was well taken care of. I’d recommend her for sure.”
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Miranda and her husband took such wonderful care of our little boy! It was great to be able to enjoy our weekend and know he was safe and sound. Great communication and flexibility!”
“My dog Mac just spent 10 days with Aaron and I think he was actually a little sad to leave. He made quick friends with Aaron's dog boomer and I loved the videos of the two of them playing. Aaron was great at keeping us updated and I would definitely recommend him to a friend.”
“Brendan and Sarah were wonderful. They boarded Gracie with little notice, sent lots of photos, and Gracie had such a good time she didn’t want to leave.”

I don’t get out of town much and I am lucky enough to be able to bring my two fur babies to work with me everyday. I feel so fortunate to have found Megan and her family. Megan works from home which meant less alone time for my dogs-which made their 9 days with her much easier. Megan sent me daily updates and pictures that absolutely put this nervous momma at ease. From our first meet and greet, I knew that Megan’s easy going attitude and ability to understand my dogs’ quirks made her the perfect fit. Both dogs loved her immediately and got the added bonus of the rest of her family that showed them both so much affection and extra playtime. Megan is absolutely my go to sitter from now on and if I could give her a ten star review I would!
Jenni and her family took amazing care of our dog, Olive Lucy. She was obviously part of the family by the end of her stay. Jenni took her on walks everyday and followed all instructions. Jenni sent great pictures and updates of Olive's time with them. Highly recommend!
First time with Ashley and she was great! Our dog Mia was a rescue, and she brought some quirky things with her when we got her. Ashley was able to bond with Mia and made her feel comfortable and secure. We will definitely use her again and recommend her highly especially if you have a pet with some anxiety issues.
Cindy and Justin cared our dog in their home while we were away for the weekend. They were attentive to details and accommodating with our concerns. Our dog liked them right away. Cindy sent us pictures and updates which gave us peace of mind! We will use them again!
