“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”
“Cindy took very good care of our baby girl and made her feel so comfortable. We really appreciate her and her husband and how they looked after Poppy. Highly recommend reaching out to her for day care or boarding!”
“We had such a great experience with Katherine. The daily updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear Quinn was happy, comfortable, and very well looked after. It made being away so much easier. I truly can’t recommend Katherine enough!”
“Where do we begin? We were so nervous about leaving Nicky with strangers. And we are truly so grateful to have found Susan and Brian. Full disclosure, we thought about not writing this review so that we could keep Susan and Brian all to ourselves, but we know that they will take very, very good care of other, beloved pets so here we are. We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Susan and Brian! They made sure that our human and the furry family members were comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent. They made sure to keep us updated with regular messages and photos. They also created a little “report card” upon our return so we knew exactly how and what Nicky was doing each day — such a thoughtful touch! They went above and beyond while caring for our dog. When Nicky had unexpected tummy issues, they handled it with such care and ease. We had peace of mind the entire time we were away. We highly recommend Susan and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, kind, gentle, funny, dedicated and wonderfully caring sitters for their furry family members. Susan and Brian, thank you so much!”
“Rieko was quick to respond and took great care of our dog for the weekend. Loved the updates with photos so I knew Bentley was having a great time and getting alot of exercise. Will definitely book again!”
“Heather was very caring for our pups Luna & King. This was our first time ever using Rover and our pups were very comfortable with her! They also got to meet some new friends! She updated me day and night on how they were doing. She provided lots of photos so we were also comfortable! I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her again!❤️”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my 10 year old Goldendoodle, Ginger! Anne and Andrew were amazing with caring for her while I was overseas for two months! Anne kept me in the loop with tons of updates and pictures. You could tell Ginger really grew attached to them, and she seemed so comfortable and happy there. She was spoiled and allowed up on the couch and even cuddled up in their bed! They also have an older Goldendoodle who’s the sweetest, and they got along so well. Their place is beautiful, safe, and perfect for dogs. I’d absolutely trust them with Ginger anytime and will definitely use them again. Anne and Andrew are truly wonderful dog sitters!”
“We were very pleased with the care Dex received with Jessica. She sent updates and pictures often which gave us peace of mind and very secure. Dex was well taken care of and she really cared for him. I would definitely use her again.”
“We were incredibly fortunate to find Emilie & Vitaly to take care of Sadie while we were away for the week. From the very beginning, Emilie’s communication was excellent, and we always felt informed and reassured. The daily photos and updates were wonderful and gave us peace of mind knowing that Sadie was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. It was clear that she was in loving and capable hands. We would highly recommend Emilie & Vitaly and their children to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Sadie!”
“From the moment I walked in Carley's house I knew it was all about dogs. She had welcomed Roxy with open arms. This was the first time we boarded Roxy and were very nervous, but had no other options. Carley was fantastic she put us at ease and sent me pictures all night long so I knew she was ok. My dog was very happy and even made a new friend. I would not hesitate in recommending Carley for Dog sitting.”
“Jessica and family treated my dog, Cooper, just like he was their own and I knew he was in good hands from the moment I met them. They sent many updates, including photos and videos. I will definitely be using their dog sitting services again and highly recommend them!”
“Having Richard care for my dog gave me great relief as a first time Rover customer. Everything seemed quite seamless. Richard was very welcoming and showed me some of the area of his home where my dog would be spending some time there. And the backyard was a nice big fenced in area!! Definitely would recommend his services and will utilize his help again!”
“Angi was fantastic! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her over the weekend as we attended an event. You can tell she is a dog person, and was very welcoming and communicative. We appreciated the regular updates and photos to reassure us Maple was having a great time and was being well cared for. Would highly recommend and we’ll rebook if we are ever traveling that way again. Thanks Angi.”
“Dalton has taken care of both our pets (cat and dog) and we always come home to very happy pets. Our Viszla got lots of walks and exercise and our Siamese cat always get lots of pets. Dalton always send pics and is a great, responsible pet sitter. Thx so much.”
“Geo and Amanda were great! Lots of pictures sent for updates the dogs were extremely comfortable and happy to be with them. We’ve already rebooked for the next time! Thanks so much”
“Adi and Ips took such great care of my 5 year old dog and really went above and beyond. I have a Corgi, and they handled her energy so well. They usually have 2 to 3 other dogs around, both big and small, and even safely exposed her to a cat, which was a great experience. They kept her busy with long walks full of sniffing, worked on her leash skills, and even took her on a car ride. They also offered to help reinforce a few commands, which I really appreciated. At the same time, they made sure she got plenty of rest. She was totally comfortable sleeping wherever she wanted, whether that was with the other dogs or on the bed. They stayed in touch every day and let me know right away when she had a health related episode. It was clear they were paying close attention and genuinely cared about her. I can’t thank them enough and will definitely be booking with them again when needed.”
“Working with Dale was a pleasure from the beginning to end. She is a true professional and will take care of your pet like it’s her own. Her regular updates will put your heart at ease like they did for me while traveling out of the country. Seeing my puppy’s pics and reading the updates sure put a smile on my face :) I will for sure use Dales services in the future ! She’s an awesome lady, with a big heart for animals and their owners. Thank you so much Dale !!! See you soon :)”
“Geordie is absolutely fantastic. He took my sweet girl Bailey for an entire week into his home. I received multiple photos and videos of their adventures together. From walking on the trails, visiting seniors and watching tv together on the couch, Bailey had met a new friend. Thanks Geordie!!!!!”

About: What sets me apart is my deep understanding of cats’ unique needs and personalities. I’ve cared for cats of all ages, including seniors, and know how important patience, gentleness, and consistency are. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, administering medications, and providing cozy spaces where cats feel safe and relaxed. I pay close attention to each cat’s behavior, energy, and preferences, making sure they feel secure and loved. With my flexible schedule during the week and on weekends, I can give your cat plenty of attention, play, and companionship. Your cat will be cared for with the same warmth and devotion I gave my own feline friends, making them feel happy and comfortable in my care. 🐾
About: 🐱 About Me: Patient, Attentive Care for Your Feline Friends! Hi, I'm Natasha! As any cat lover knows, kitties rule the house, and they all have completely unique personalities. Some are social butterflies who crave chin scratches and laser pointer chases, while others prefer to observe you from a safe distance atop a bookshelf. My approach to cat care is entirely relationship-based and patient. I never force interaction; instead, I let your cat set the pace, earning their trust through quiet observation, respect for their boundaries, and sticking strictly to their established routines. What a Typical Visit Looks Like: Fresh Food & Water: Strict adherence to your feeding schedule (wet food prep, exact measurements, or specific medication schedules). I always wash bowls and refresh water fountains or dishes. Meticulous Litter Box Maintenance: A clean box keeps cats happy and healthy. I scoop thoroughly during every single visit and keep the surrounding area tidy. Enrichment & Play: If your cat is playful, I’m ready with the feather wand, crinkle balls, or laser pointer. If they love mental stimulation, I'm happy to set up treat puzzles. Quality Companionship: For shy or independent cats, I’m perfectly content sitting quietly on the floor, reading a book or working, just offering calm company so they don't feel entirely alone. The "Headcount" Rule: I never leave a visit without physically spotting your cat to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and accounted for—even if they are a master of hiding!
“Natalie was Great! She was super responsive to our messages before and during pet sitting. Sent us great updates and the cutest pet news flash at the end to sum up Chief's time! SO CUTE!! Also, she is the only person who has managed to break through Chief's skeptical exterior, and he seemed to really like her! She's definitely got a magic about her! Thank you again Natalie!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my dad was a dog trainer, so I was surrounded by dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments from a young age. This gave me a strong understanding of canine behavior and how to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m confident handling dogs on walks, whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. I know how important routine, patience, and positive reinforcement are, and I always make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves to play or prefers a quiet companion, I’m happy to provide the care they need while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring, capable hands. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to spend with your furry family members. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get plenty of exercise under supervision. We also have two friendly, well-socialized dogs, a Maltese and a Black Lab, who love meeting and playing with other dogs and are comfortable around cats. I always introduce pets slowly and carefully to make sure everyone feels comfortable. If your pet prefers their own space or has a different routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. When caring for pets in your home, I always follow your instructions to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’m comfortable with crating if that’s part of their routine, administering meals, going for walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in the comfort of their own home.
About: Happy to walk a dog or two. I usually have my kids and dog in tow on walks, but am flexible if that’s not ideal. Our 12yo dog Kutsu (medium sized border collie mix from Japan) is great with other dogs and loves to run, play and explore. He mostly just keeps to himself though and avoids conflict. I am a full time mom looking for extra cash and love dogs, and so do the kids of course. The kids are so far very gentle with our dog and other dogs we’ve had here. We aren’t hosting at this time but will again soon! We're more than happy to accommodate any special needs. We are well-versed in the cone of shame, allergies, and giving medications. I used to be a nurse so learning on the job is my specialty. We believe in positive reinforcement training and have used an e-collar in the past until it wasn’t necessary anymore. Please feel free to talk to us more about how we can support you and your best friend! I am a stay at home mom so I make my own schedule and am very flexible. I am good with last-minute or planned visits. All depends on the needs of the dog. If they like to be left alone, cool. If they need meds, cool. If they need walks all day, cool. We can accomodate!
“Ashley took great care of our kitty, Charlie while we were away! Charlie requires special care and medication for his condition and Ashley took care of all his needs and kept him on schedule. She was very communicative and kept our place clean, we really appreciated that she was sending frequent pictures and updates. We have full trust in her and would highly recommend!”

I make sure the home is respected and kept tidy while ensuring the pet feels secure in their familiar environment. In both settings, I prioritize the pet’s safety, well-being, and emotional comfort, while also keeping owners updated as needed.

“This was our first time using this App and doggy daycare for our new pup Felix.

“Melanie has been a wonderful dog sitter for my miniature pinscher mix Lulu! Lulu went on a regular basis for doggy daycare in the fall of 2025 and early 2026 before we moved away. Melanie was always responsive, caring and provided regular updates with photos and video after every daycare session. Lulu is going to miss going to Melanie’s house and playing with her friend Finn. Thank you Melanie!”

About: 🐾 About Me: Professional Care, Puppy-Level Enthusiasm! Hi, I'm Natasha! I know how tough it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why my goal is to give you total peace of mind. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer who needs a structured routine, a growing puppy working on their manners, or a sweet senior who just wants a quiet couch to snooze on, I tailor my care to exactly what your dog needs to feel safe and happy. Why Choose Me? Structured & Mindful Approach: I don't just "watch" dogs; I pay close attention to their body language, routines, and comfort levels. If you are working on specific training milestones (like crate training, loose-leash walking, or socialization), I am happy to help maintain that consistency while you're away! Active & Adaptive: From energetic hikes and outdoor play to calm, enriching indoor puzzles, I adapt the day's pacing to match your dog's age and energy level. Clear, Daily Communication: You'll get regular updates and photo check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. I maintain a structured, full-time schedule that allows me to dedicate my days entirely to pet care. I don’t believe in leaving pets alone for long stretches, so your furry family member will enjoy a highly attentive environment. Whether maintaining a progressive exercise routine for an active dog, supporting a service candidate puppy working on their focus and manners, or providing quiet company for a senior pet, my schedule adapts to their needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is sticking to their comfort routine while you're away. I live in a cozy, secure, and entirely pet-friendly space that is kept clean and free of hazards. While I don’t have a private yard, I completely make up for it with a highly active and structured routine! Outdoor time is intentional and frequent. We will go on regular, timed leash walks and local outdoor adventures tailored entirely to your dog’s age and energy level. Inside, the vibe is peaceful and relaxing—perfect for refueling after a good walk. I have plenty of room for crates, beds, and indoor enrichment puzzles to keep your pup happy and content.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my dad was a dog trainer, so I was surrounded by dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments from a young age. This gave me a strong understanding of canine behavior and how to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m confident handling dogs on walks, whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. I know how important routine, patience, and positive reinforcement are, and I always make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your pet loves to play or prefers a quiet companion, I’m happy to provide the care they need while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring, capable hands. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to spend with your furry family members. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get plenty of exercise under supervision. We also have two friendly, well-socialized dogs, a Maltese and a Black Lab, who love meeting and playing with other dogs and are comfortable around cats. I always introduce pets slowly and carefully to make sure everyone feels comfortable. If your pet prefers their own space or has a different routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. When caring for pets in your home, I always follow your instructions to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’m comfortable with crating if that’s part of their routine, administering meals, going for walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in the comfort of their own home.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through overnight stays, drop-in visits and dog walking. I’ve cared for pets with many different personalities, from energetic and playful to shy, nervous and anxious. I’m patient and take the time to let each pet become comfortable with me at their own pace. I follow their regular routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime and lots of love and attention. I especially love seeing a shy/anxious pet begin to trust me and become my little shadow. Building relationships with pets and having families trust me to care for them again is one of my favourite parts of pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a kindergarten educator, I’m available for morning visits before work, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays during the school year. During the summer, I have much greater flexibility and am available throughout the day, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of schedules and your pet’s routine. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and loving care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where they can maintain their familiar routine and surroundings. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences so I can provide calm, personalized care tailored to them. Before any booking, I offer a free Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, discuss your pet’s routine, and ensure we’re the right fit for one another. I also ask all pet parents to complete a detailed intake form, which helps me learn about your pet’s routine, medical needs, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. For dog walking clients, I also like to do a short practice walk so your dog can get comfortable with me before our first scheduled walk. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and recently said goodbye to my two sweet pups who both lived beautiful, full lives to 16 years old. Caring for them through every stage — from playful puppy days to their senior years — gave me deep patience, attentiveness, and love for animals at every age. I understand how much pets mean to a family because mine were truly my heart. I treat every dog in my care with the same gentleness, respect, and affection, making sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home. 🐾 Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I intentionally keep my schedule flexible. My days off during the week and on weekends allow me to care for your pet 100% of the time — they won’t be left alone for long stretches. I plan my days around walks, feeding times, play, and rest so your pet gets consistent attention and supervision. Whether it’s multiple daily walks, enrichment time, or just extra cuddles, I’m fully present and focused on their care while they’re with me. 🐾 Safety and trust are everything to me. In my home, pets are supervised, loved, and treated like family. While I don’t have a fenced-in backyard, I make up for it with frequent structured walks and outdoor time on a long leash in the yard so they can safely explore, sniff, and enjoy fresh air. I’m attentive to each dog’s energy level and routine — whether that means extra playtime, slower senior strolls, or sticking closely to feeding and medication schedules. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I follow all instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates with photos so you always feel connected and reassured. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times. 🐾
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my diverse and hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and skill levels. With three years of experience in pet retail, I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior and the products that best suit their needs. I’ve also worked closely with dog trainers and walkers, gaining specialized experience in handling reactive and aggressive dogs with defensive handling techniques. In addition to my expertise with senior dogs, puppies, and pullers, I’ve been actively involved in dog sports like agility, barn hunt, lure courses, scent work, canicross, rally obedience, and conformation. This gives me a unique ability to tailor activities to your dog’s energy levels, whether they need a calm walk or an engaging training session. Whether you're looking for someone to provide gentle care for a senior dog or a high-energy workout for a sporty pup, I can ensure your dog feels safe, stimulated, and well-loved. I work with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments—including reactive and aggressive dogs. I’ve had great success helping dogs integrate into group walks, with many positive outcomes to show for it. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as I’m passionate about balancing my career outside of Rover with my love for dogs who meet me through Rover! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines and preferences while maintaining balance and structure to stay consistent and reduce stress.

“Jayne was very friendly and professional through our communications. She was comfortable and confident when I told her we had two large breeds dogs. She seems to have lots of experience with all types and you can be confident that your pet will be in safe hands when Jayne is on duty!”
About: I have been a vet tech for over 5 years but decided that field is no longer for me. I knew I wanted to stay in the field with animals so I became a dog trainer, walker and boarder. Dogs have always been a passion of mine! I will treat your dogs just like my own.. lots of TLC 🥰 I am always around to let your fur babies out to do their business. I work very locally. We will always go for walks in the morning and evening! If you require me to live-in your home, I will need to bring along my personal dog as well. I also have a dog of my own that is super friendly and a great teacher to other dogs. I also have cameras set up around my home for extra safety.

“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”
“Where do we begin? We were so nervous about leaving Nicky with strangers. And we are truly so grateful to have found Susan and Brian. Full disclosure, we thought about not writing this review so that we could keep Susan and Brian all to ourselves, but we know that they will take very, very good care of other, beloved pets so here we are. We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Susan and Brian! They made sure that our human and the furry family members were comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent. They made sure to keep us updated with regular messages and photos. They also created a little “report card” upon our return so we knew exactly how and what Nicky was doing each day — such a thoughtful touch! They went above and beyond while caring for our dog. When Nicky had unexpected tummy issues, they handled it with such care and ease. We had peace of mind the entire time we were away. We highly recommend Susan and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, kind, gentle, funny, dedicated and wonderfully caring sitters for their furry family members. Susan and Brian, thank you so much!”
“Heather was very caring for our pups Luna & King. This was our first time ever using Rover and our pups were very comfortable with her! They also got to meet some new friends! She updated me day and night on how they were doing. She provided lots of photos so we were also comfortable! I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her again!❤️”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my 10 year old Goldendoodle, Ginger! Anne and Andrew were amazing with caring for her while I was overseas for two months! Anne kept me in the loop with tons of updates and pictures. You could tell Ginger really grew attached to them, and she seemed so comfortable and happy there. She was spoiled and allowed up on the couch and even cuddled up in their bed! They also have an older Goldendoodle who’s the sweetest, and they got along so well. Their place is beautiful, safe, and perfect for dogs. I’d absolutely trust them with Ginger anytime and will definitely use them again. Anne and Andrew are truly wonderful dog sitters!”
“We were very pleased with the care Dex received with Jessica. She sent updates and pictures often which gave us peace of mind and very secure. Dex was well taken care of and she really cared for him. I would definitely use her again.”
“We were incredibly fortunate to find Emilie & Vitaly to take care of Sadie while we were away for the week. From the very beginning, Emilie’s communication was excellent, and we always felt informed and reassured. The daily photos and updates were wonderful and gave us peace of mind knowing that Sadie was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. It was clear that she was in loving and capable hands. We would highly recommend Emilie & Vitaly and their children to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Sadie!”
“Jessica and family treated my dog, Cooper, just like he was their own and I knew he was in good hands from the moment I met them. They sent many updates, including photos and videos. I will definitely be using their dog sitting services again and highly recommend them!”
“Having Richard care for my dog gave me great relief as a first time Rover customer. Everything seemed quite seamless. Richard was very welcoming and showed me some of the area of his home where my dog would be spending some time there. And the backyard was a nice big fenced in area!! Definitely would recommend his services and will utilize his help again!”
“Angi was fantastic! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her over the weekend as we attended an event. You can tell she is a dog person, and was very welcoming and communicative. We appreciated the regular updates and photos to reassure us Maple was having a great time and was being well cared for. Would highly recommend and we’ll rebook if we are ever traveling that way again. Thanks Angi.”
“Dalton has taken care of both our pets (cat and dog) and we always come home to very happy pets. Our Viszla got lots of walks and exercise and our Siamese cat always get lots of pets. Dalton always send pics and is a great, responsible pet sitter. Thx so much.”
“Geo and Amanda were great! Lots of pictures sent for updates the dogs were extremely comfortable and happy to be with them. We’ve already rebooked for the next time! Thanks so much”
“Adi and Ips took such great care of my 5 year old dog and really went above and beyond. I have a Corgi, and they handled her energy so well. They usually have 2 to 3 other dogs around, both big and small, and even safely exposed her to a cat, which was a great experience. They kept her busy with long walks full of sniffing, worked on her leash skills, and even took her on a car ride. They also offered to help reinforce a few commands, which I really appreciated. At the same time, they made sure she got plenty of rest. She was totally comfortable sleeping wherever she wanted, whether that was with the other dogs or on the bed. They stayed in touch every day and let me know right away when she had a health related episode. It was clear they were paying close attention and genuinely cared about her. I can’t thank them enough and will definitely be booking with them again when needed.”
“Working with Dale was a pleasure from the beginning to end. She is a true professional and will take care of your pet like it’s her own. Her regular updates will put your heart at ease like they did for me while traveling out of the country. Seeing my puppy’s pics and reading the updates sure put a smile on my face :) I will for sure use Dales services in the future ! She’s an awesome lady, with a big heart for animals and their owners. Thank you so much Dale !!! See you soon :)”
“Geordie is absolutely fantastic. He took my sweet girl Bailey for an entire week into his home. I received multiple photos and videos of their adventures together. From walking on the trails, visiting seniors and watching tv together on the couch, Bailey had met a new friend. Thanks Geordie!!!!!”
“Bethany sent many pictures throughout Bella's stay she was super nice and we ended up getting home to late so we asked to extend her stay by a day and she said of course I will be sending Bella back here again”
“Sheila watched our pups for the second time for 9 days and we could not have been happier! We felt so at ease on our vacation knowing they were being so well taken care of. She treated them like her own and made sure my picky girl was always fed, no matter what! Thank you Sheila for making our babies feel comfortable, safe and happy. We will definitely be using Sheila in the future!”

“Ellie just love’s going to Sharon’s house and it’s such a nice social place for her to be that I am looking for excuses to take her back more often! I highly recommend her!”
“Tessa was wonderful with our girl! She stayed with her for about 10 days and took such great care of her. Our pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Tessa sent updates and photos throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. She's kind, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter”
