“Lyndsey took great care of our dog while we were away. She has a great property that she took our dog on many walks on along with a fenced in back yard where our dog could play freely. Our dog came home a worn out pup! Lyndsey also texted daily with updates and pictures. It was the first time we used Rover, and she made it a great experience. We will rebook with her in the future!”
“Azure was great with our 6 month old Golden Retriever! He can be quite a handful but she did amazing with him. I really liked that she sent photo updates, it eased my furmama heart! He had a great time and I could tell he had plenty of love and play time in Azure’s care.”
“Our 2nd visit to Katelin. Fantastic communication. Really appreciated the adorable daily update photos! Keke had a blast with her friends and was well taken care of. :)”
“Greg has been super good with communication prior to us booking and was willing to go through any and all questions we had. With our two dogs the requirements couldn’t be more different but he provided great information and we booked. He keeps us in the loop and treated our babies like their own. I would hands down have them take care of our pups any and every time. If you are thinking about using Greg to take care of your pup… just book with him. It’s the best thing you can do for your pups. You will be more than happy.”
“Natalie took great care of my lab while I was out of town. She sent me pictures that insured me he was doing well. When I picked up dog he seemed happy that he made new friends. I recommend Natalie for your pet sitting needs!!”
“Highly recommend Karisa! She kept me updated throughout their stay and sent me pictures. She also sent them home with homemade dog cookies. Her house looked very clean and my dogs were happy and healthy when they returned home.”
“Mrs Nan and her family were the perfect choice for my pup's first pet sitter. My rogue can be stand offish with new people since she was adopted right before COVID-19 start. Mrs. Nan was patient with her, loved on my girl as much as rogue allowed, encouraged her to eat when she was depressed, and checked on her through out the day when Rogue decided to hide in her crate instead of playing with Nate. I received multiple pictures and updates, and Mrs Nan was quick to answer questions on how things were going. I highly recommend using Mrs Nan, I plan to use her again.”
“Lanae was wonderful to our pup. She was willing to take him last minute, which saved us from missing our vacation. She took the time to update us regularly, and responded to any question I had promptly. She gave him all the love and attention he requires and I’m very grateful for that. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
“Agnatha was great with my dogs! They warmed up to her really quickly and had a wonderful time with her. She sent me many pictures to show how they were doing and was communicative about what they were doing and how they were eating and such. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you, Agnatha!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging in size and age! I work in the medical field (3 12 hour shifts) so I have lots of free time to fill with your furry friend! I have 2 dogs of my own, my most recent who was a rescue from our local shelter. I’m very patient, loving, and kind. I’d love to be a calming presence for your dog while you’re away! I have 4 days off each week - I don’t work holidays or weekends at my job, so I’m more than willing to spend that time with your pup! I have a fenced in backyard. I have 2 medium sized dogs who are both very friendly and would love to meet your animals! They are fully vaccinated. I have a large room in my home with plenty of dog beds and a couple crates that has windows and hardwood floors. I have a baby gate up so that my dogs can roam free while I’m at work ◡̈

“I felt very reassured from the beginning that my fur baby would be taken good care of! Very nice family and sweet little girl that loved Rusty! She sent me pictures and updates that really helped reassure me that he was fine. I would 1000% recommend taking your fur baby to them. I will definitely be taking my Rusty back.”
“Wow, what a great dog sitter! Kristen was an amazing caretaker for my aging dog. She kept me informed with pictures throughout my entire week away. Toby had an amazing time there with Kristen, her kids, and her dogs. I could tell she took great care of him, and gave him the love and attention he needed. Today he is depressed as it seems as he is missing the fun at her house. Kristen is sweet and kind, a great communicator, responsive, and has a nice home and a great fenced in back yard. I can't wait to book Kristen again when we head out of town.”
