About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years, and my 15-year-old Pomeranian is a very special part of our family. He has been with us for so long that I honestly can’t imagine our home without him. I’m also a mom of three, so we have a busy but loving family home where pets are very much part of everyday life. My kids love dogs, and we’re used to having a furry member of the family around. Having a senior dog has taught me to be patient and pay attention to the little things. I know that older dogs sometimes need a little more rest, more frequent potty breaks, and extra care and attention. We also travel to Egypt and Serbia every year, and my Pomeranian has flown overseas with me many times. I know how much work it can be to travel with a dog, and I also know how hard it is to leave them behind. That’s actually one of the reasons I decided to offer boarding. I’ve had to leave my own dog with people I trusted, and even then, I knew he acted differently because I wasn’t there. I remember wondering if he was okay, if he was comfortable, and if someone was giving him the same attention I would. So when your dog stays with me, I want you to feel comfortable too. I’ll get to know your dog’s routine, personality, feeding schedule and what makes them happy and comfortable. I’ll keep you updated with pictures so you don’t have to wonder how they’re doing. We have a fenced backyard, and I’ll take dogs for daily walks on the beautiful 2-mile path around Stellwagen Farm, which is only a few minutes from our home. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone. To me, they’re not just a booking or another dog staying at my house. They’re someone’s family — just like my Pomeranian is part of mine. I’m a stay-at-home mom and am available pretty much all the time, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving home with a fenced backyard,and a finished basement. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m available most of the time and can give your dog lots of attention throughout the day. I also have a senior Pomeranian, so I understand the importance of patience and making sure every dog feels comfortable.
“Tamara had great communication and made me feel at ease since it was my first time using this service. My dog loved her stay, and came home tired and happy! Will definitely book again when I need it. Thank you!”
“My two dogs had a great time with Jesus! We had something come up last minute and he responded very quickly. My pups also came back smelling nice so that’s always a plus :) will be using Jesus again in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 5 years old. I took care of dogs, cats, and birds. Pets like to be around me and feel safe. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of time and energy to take care of your dog anytime starting 11am all week days as you need. I have a big yard that makes your dog feel free in plenty of space to play and walk. I don’t have any dogs at home, so your dog will feel safe and enjoy peace.
“I just wanted to share my experience with Julian because he was honestly amazing. From the start, he made everything super easy, he even picked my dog up for free, which I really appreciated. What really stood out was how he kept me updated throughout the day. He sent messages and pictures, so I never had to worry or wonder how my dog was doing, which made me feel a lot more comfortable. On top of that, his pricing is really affordable, especially for the level of care he gives. It didn’t feel overpriced at all, which is hard to find. When my dog got back home, he was calm, happy, and clearly well taken care of. You can tell Julian actually cares and isn’t just doing it as a job. I’d definitely trust him again and recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and affordable to watch their dog.”
“Janet was great with my dog Guts! Took good care of him and she was very flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off times. I will definitely be bringing Guts back to her should I need care for him in the future.”
“Rhett was a happy camper! Returned safe & sound. Michelle communicated regularly and catered to Rhett's needs. I would recommend Michelle for boarding needs.”
“Kyla did a great job with Wrigley! She's very communicative and was also flexible with my pick up and drop of times. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Ashley did a wonderful job watching Fara while we traveled. We appreciated all the photos and updates, and it seemed like Fara really bonded with Ashley and her daughter.”
“Once again, Michelle and her family took incredible care of Bilbo! They truly treat him like one of their own, and it brings so much peace of mind knowing he’s getting just as much love as he gives. The regular updates and photos keep me completely at ease while I'm away. We couldn't ask for a better sitter and cannot recommend Michelle highly enough!”
“Our Boxer is energetic and full of curiosity. Jose and Cece were very patient and caring. They helped us be comfortable with boarding (peace of mind) when our fur baby is away from our care. Truly helpful couple and we will likely call upon them for our next boarding request.”
“If you are feeling uneasy about booking a person to care for your dog, look no further! Dayana is the absolute best and took phenomenal care of both my dogs. She kept me updated by sending videos and pictures. My dogs had the best time. She even did a cute photo shoot with my dogs. She was very attentive and loving to my dogs. Don’t think twice and book her! I’ll be selecting her for my upcoming trips.”
“T’wanna has been taking care of my two cats in her home for a month now while my place is under renovation,and they are doing really well. Because they were going to be there for so long I took all of their cat toys and their cat tree and they’re scratching post and their litter boxes over to her place so they have all the comforts of their own home.She sends me updates and photos and videos. I have been able to visit them a few times. T’wanna has been flexible with my requests to come see my babies. She also takes pictures and photos of me with them when I’m visiting and send them to me. As much as I miss them, I am so grateful that they have someone caring to look after them.”
“Kathleen was great. Our 2 small Australian Shepherds spent a couple weeks with her and we got them back healthy clean and happy. She sent us lots of photos and updates. Highly Recommended. Her dog Bucky even got along with my dog that is slow to befrend other dogs.”
“Dwight was incredible! He and his dogs, his home, and his yard made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog under his care for a week. He was very responsive, pleasant, kept me up to date, and sent pictures. It's great to have someone reliable and good with dogs in the neighborhood! I highly recommend him, and will definitely contact him for future dog sitting.”
“We had another great experience with Angel. Ferris got along really well with his dogs so it was nice knowing he had buddies. Angel gave at least daily updates with photos and videos, took Ferris out for regular exercise, and was very flexible with timing and logistics.”
“Cassandra took great care of my dog Ace during his 4-day stay. I can tell he had a good time hanging out with her dog, Chewy. Cassandra was a pleasure to work with and I hope to use her services again for future boarding.”

Amy is such a great dog sitter to Bella. This is my second time booking her. She is always giving me updates and short videos and photos of Bella. She truly treats Bella like her own and I’m so grateful for her tender care for Bella. I highly recommend Amy and will definitely book again in the future for sure. A++++++
Danny was great with my dog, Gabe, and was extremely easy to communicate with! He was very accommodating and was understanding of the intricacies that come with boarding a large dog. He made sure to take many pictures and texted me to help alleviate my own anxiety about being away from my dog. When we met Danny for a meet and greet, my dog instantly was comfortable. I have never seen him like that at a commercial boarder. I am very grateful for Danny!
We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter, Jim! He boarded our 5 month old American Eskimo puppy, Millie, over the busy Fourth of July weekend and we couldn't have been happier with the care he provided. This was our puppy's first time away from home and he made it such a positive experience! Thank you!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
