“June was a fantastic sitter for our two pups while we were away! She was so communicative and sent pictures a few times every day so we could see how happy they were. One of our dogs is deathly afraid of thunderstorms and she comforted him throughout the night. She also took them on several walks, which they absolutely love and brought our pups back home when our flight was delayed and the timing became an issue. I 100% recommend June -she treated our dogs like her own!”
“Katie is an absolutely amazing sitter. She sends so many updates, so you won’t be worried about your fur babies at all. My two dogs spend 4 days with her and they were treated like royalty. Kathleen is so detailed, even giving me a record of their feeding times, potty time and play time etc. She kept them very entertained and brought them for plenty of walks and fun time at the dog park. If my dogs could talk they would tell me they didn’t miss me. Lol. I recommend booking with Kathleen, she knows how to take care of your dog and they will be in great hands. Definitely booking again. Rating beyond: 5/5.”
“Our pups had a blast running around Victoria's large spacious yard with her friendly pup. She has the perfect set up for watching dogs. With her calm demeanor, I was quickly at ease leaving my dogs with her. She provided the perfect amount of updates and videos while we were away. We will definitely be rebooking.”
“Carolyn could not have been more professional, caring or accommodating. First time Rover user and I think I struck gold. If I had to choose between Carolyn's services and a traditional bordering service, I'd choose Carolyn every time. I hope to use her services in the future.”
“Once again, Derek and his family were the perfect caregivers for my dog Bear. They are kind, caring, and willing to do all of the small, nice things for Bear that I do. I am so happy to have found Derek, as we have several long trips planned in the next few months. We will go away knowing that our sweet pup is in the best hands possible. Thank you so much, Derek!”
“Kelli is a devoted dog lover who took excellent care of my 11 year old frenchy for a couple of nights. Some medication was required and Stevie sleeps in bed with me. Her medication was no issue for Kelli and she allowed Stevie to sleep with her which was so appreciated. Kelli works from home which is a real benefit when caring for Stevie. We greatly appreciate Kelli and her efforts on behalf of Stevie. We are already booked for our next trip with Kelli 🐾🐾”
“Christine was terrific with Sparky. He is an older dog and she and her family were very patient with him and conscientious with his medication. I would definitely use her again.”
“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”
“Cheryl was amazing! Our pups loved being there and felt welcome. We received picture updates throughout the day. I highly recommend and will use her services in the future. Thanks again Cheryl!”
“Jill is an amazing and professional dog sitter! She picked up my dog right from my house and took wonderful care of him for an extended period of time. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. I highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for the best dog sitter!”
“Wow! Absolutely wow! To give you an idea of how well my boys experience was…They didn’t want to leave. I had to entice them with treats to get in the car to go home. They were loving on Nancy from the moment the door to her home was opened to seeing their smiling faces when we picked them up after a weekend. We now refer to this experience as “Aunt Nancy’s Oasis.” These boys had so much fun they were wiped when they got home and probably had the best sleep of their lives.”
“Michele is awesome! She’s very knowledgeable of dogs and dog behavior and I felt 100% confident leaving my fur babies under her care. Michelle gave great updates over the weekend that I cherished and it was clear the dogs were happy and very comfortable. I highly recommend Michele!”
About: We only take dogs under 40lbs. I have a 5 acres property. 1 acre fenced in so dogs have a safe space to run and play. It is a dogs vacation paradise. My family and I love animals and love helping others. I am home full time to care for your pets like they are our own. I am excited to take care of them while you are away. We have a big family and lots of love to give. We only care for dogs under 40 pounds. This ensures your little furry family members are safe at our home. My property has paths through it and has lots of space. The dogs in our care get a vacation of their own while at our home.
“Second time booking Tony; terrific sitter just like last time. Very communicative and responsive, followed all instructions thoroughly, and took extra steps to care for my senior dog (including staying up late with her one night). Would 100% recommend and book again.”
“Anzhalika and her family were phenomenal hosts for our little Rhubarb. Her sons took Rhu for walks, sent us pictures both days and gave us updates on how she was adjusting. They agreed to have a meet and greet a week before to make sure this was a good fit for everyone and we are so grateful for this wonderful experience. We highly recommend Anzhalika and her family to host your fur babies. Thank you, again!”
