“Maya did a great job with Merlin. Not only did she take good care of him but gave him some much needed play time. She even found some new food for him that he loves. Maya went above and beyond.”



“I hate to repeat myself, but I can't say enough great things about Briana. She goes above and beyond in every way each time Libbie visits. During the stay, I receive updates with cute photos and videos about how she is doing. It is obvious my dog is genuinely loved. Her assistant, Duke, is a gentle, big boy. Libbie loves hanging with him. He seems to know exactly what play style to provide. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book with Briana. If you are looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further. BUT know I will be super upset if you take my next booking spot!!”


“Gina was so accommodating! Our dogs, Harry and Libby, came home happy and oh so pooped out! They were so well taken care of and we could not have been happier with the care they received. Gina is a lovely person and her family was super with our dogs!”


About: I have had a dog my entire life. When my last one passed, my heart was broken and I haven’t been able to get another one. I watched my daughter’s dog for a year but took her back about a year ago to Idaho). I work from home and it’s very quiet without any four-legged friends to keep me company throughout the day. I would love to help you out by watching your fur baby (& I can’t lie, it would make my heart happy to do so :)) I work from home and have the flexibility to take them out for walks as needed. I walk multiple times a day & would love to share that with a dog. Because I work from home, I am easily able to give a lot of love to your fur baby so that you can relax and not worry about a thing. I will love them like they are my own!

“2nd time booking with Chelsea & she will always be our go to if we need day care again. Super flexible and communication is top notch. Lots of photos each day along with details of the day's activities. Our pups come home happy and tired, having spent their days playing and snuggling. Chelsea and her family are beyond fabulous!”

The home felt so welcoming and baco loved it he had the time of his life with his new friends.”


About: Hi everyone! Our names are Karen and Chad and we’ve always had a love for dogs since childhood. The thought of caring or rescuing a dog has always been top of our minds. When we got married, we adopted a greyhound racer. We had him for 7 years and lost him unfortunately due to cancer. Since we lost him, we’ve wanted to continue helping/caring for dogs and can’t think of a better way then helping others with their fur animals. We know the working world doesn’t always accommodate balancing out caring for our fur friends and work and would love to help with that! Please chose us to care for your fur friends whether it’s a walk or a overnight stay in our home! We will treat them with the utmost love and care! We are available for stays and walks in our home from Thursday until Sunday night. We work from home Thursday and Fridays so can walk them whenever needed! We have a nice back yard but do not currently have a fence (at this time). We can walk the dogs in our backyard with a leash and or take them to nearby parks. We do have a dog bed and dog water/food bowels with plenty of space in our 2200 sq.ft home.

About: Hi I’m Alli! My passion has always been animals and I have been caring for them since I was a young girl. From my early teens and until I enlisted in the Navy I was working or volunteering with animals on farms, pet sitting, working with dog groomers, etc as well as growing up with my own pets. I am a big advocate for rescue animals, especially dogs. I have 3 rescue pups of my own, two with disabilities. I have experience giving medication, caring for elderly dogs, dogs with special needs/disabilities, and plenty of experience with dogs that have separation anxiety. My husband and I’s schedules are very flexibility, plus i’m always home majority of the day to care for your fur baby(s)! The most we are all away from the house is if we need to run errands. My house sits on 3+ acres that is fully fenced, so plenty of safe room to run and stretch! Inside the house dogs are welcome to snuggle up on the couch with me or sleep the day away (like my old girl “Roxy”). In the finished basement I can provide a “cat only” zone for your kitty to relax, with a small cat sized door leading to upstairs if your cat wants to explore :) my own dogs get along with all my various farm animals as well as other dogs, cats, and people. On the property I do have chickens and horses and I do allow my chickens to free range. All my farm animals are comfortable around dogs.

About: I've lived with animals, big and small, my whole life. If there was a stray animal, all of a sudden it wasn't stray anymore. Recently got my first (working breed) puppy and doing everything I can to make sure he is well socialized and well behaved. This has given me a lot of insight on how to keep a dog mentally and physically challenged. We have also taken obedience classes. For mental challenges, we do training, hide and seek, and large variety of dog puzzles. For physical, we play with soccer ball, fetch, flirt pole, frisbee, we also have plenty of space for play. I would be happy to include your dogs in our day! Stay at home mom with pretty much full availability. We still need to be home pretty consistently for our 7 month old pup. Would just request information on crating options in case it fell on grocery day and I need to leave for an hour, but majority of the time, I am home! I care for your pet based off your given expectations. I'm home most of the day, so if you'd like me to follow a very specific set of instructions, I can do that. I know how important routines are for dogs and I can try my best to keep your dog on their routines. I will only accept dogs that have a chance to meet my dogs first, at a meet and greet. My dogs are friendly and the pup is certainly playful, so if it is a good fit, they will all have a lot of fun together! I can only accommodate care in my own home as I have small children. Children and pets are never left alone without my supervision (whether its your pet or my pet) for all parties safety. Please let me know anyway I can make you feel at ease, with updates, pictures and videos, or anything else you can think of.

“My friend and my three pooches were well taken care of while we went out to breakfast and went to a musical. Katherine sent us photos, so we knew the kids were all right. Thank you for taking such good care of them.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for my whole life. I am an animal lover and treat them as part of the family. I spoil my dog and if you would like your dog spoiled too then you should call me. I am retired and am available most to all days. I am very flexible. With my own dog, I take him outside often and make sure he has food and water at all times. I have a large back yard and a dog who loves to play with new playmates. I have a home that is welcoming for dogs or I can come to you and take your dog for a walk.

About: I grew up caring for dogs and decided to get my own as soon as I could! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I can give extra care and attention to your furry friend! I have a large house on multiple acres of land so there is plenty of space to play. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and can usually adjust my schedule to fit your needs. This also allows me to take frequent breaks for potty and play. My two small dogs are unleashed in our home, and they are friendly and love to play with other dogs! I do not have a crate, but if you bring one, would be happy to use it upon request.

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.


About: Hello! Thank you for considering our family to be a vacation stay for your dog! Below are some details about us, our home and our experience with dog sitting. About this sitter: I have been a sitter with Rover for about 5 years, and have loved it! My husband and I both work from home, me as a contractor and my husband as the founder and CEO of our music lesson business. Our work enables us to be flexible and home more than most, which we are extremely grateful for. We love animals and I have had dogs and cats my entire life. Our three children also love animals. They are very gentle and calm around animals, as we have taught them how to treat animals kindly and with respect, no pulling on tails or stealing toys here! Why I love dog sitting I got my first family dog, a LasoApso/Poodle mix, when I was 6, rescued from the shelter. Since then, I have always had dog(s) and/or cat(s), including one three-legged cat and later, an epileptic dog who had two reconstructive knee surgeries! Later in life, we enrolled a puppy we adopted into an intensive training and obedience program, in which we were also trained in proper dog handling. We have had dogs of all sizes, from a miniature poodle to a 100lb chocolate lab…all of which were lap dogs…even the giant lab! Meet my pets We have two 5 month old male kittens that get along great with dogs, and usually don't even pay them any attention. We have no other dogs. About my home and yard We live in a 3 story home with hardwood floors. We have an open back yard with a lead to make sure that our dog guests can safely enjoy being outside and still stay on our property. We do have steps leading to both the front and back door into the yard. My experience administering medication Yes, we can administer medication. Over the years I have had multiple pets with special needs which required medication. Our family loves animals and we're ready to love yours! Please feel free to contact us with any questions, we look forward to providing a pampered stay for your pet while you're away! We work from home so we will have plenty of time to care for and love your pet! We absolutely love having furry friends in our home and as part of our daily life. We try and keep things in our home consistent with how things are in the owners home. If the dogs get free reign at their house, they will have free reign here (as long as they are potty trained and house broken). We are also happy to use a crate if that is what they are used to. We do have a large dog crate here and plenty of toys, so there is no need to transport a crate. We have a lead in the back yard to make sure that all dog guests are safe and on our property during potty breaks and outside time.

“Nathan was great with communicating! He sent lots of pictures and videos and even recorded the walks they had. Nathan was very patient and helpful with Dug. I will definitely use him in the future!”


About: I’ve always been around dogs, large or small, and have given them so much love! Walks, rewards, and possible car rides if your pup loves them! Currently working from home so I have a lot of time to give your dog the care he/she needs! I also have a dog myself! I have a dog myself where we go on daily walks and play all the time, so your dog will be well loved here with us! I have toys, treats, food, and a crate if need be!
