“Denise was great and treated our dog like family! Her family was very welcoming at the meet and great and every time we dropped our dog off at her home. He always comes home happy, tired, and content. I would highly recommend Denise!”


3. Maggie C.

“Maggie is such a great dogsitter, definitely looking forward to having my pup stay with her again! Not only was she incredibly flexible, she sent me photos throughout the day of my pup and I could really tell she cared about him and didn’t look at this like another job! Your pets will be in good hands with her!”

About: Hi! My husband and I have had dogs and other animals all of our lives. My years of experience comes from when I got my own pup, as a teenager, and learned what it meant to take care of a dog. After that, I started taking full care of all of our family animals and have continued to today; with pet sitting experience for family and friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pup(s)! As a stay-at-home mom of three littles, we spend lots of time outside. My husband also works from home so, there is always someone around. Your pup will be a member of our family during their stay. Our home has a fenced in yard and a nice neighborhood for walking.


7. Kayla & Bryant F.

“Kayla and Bryant were kind enough to take Fizzy for a day in spite of the last minute booking. Kayla was very responsive all throughout the process and sent photos that showed just how comfortable Fizzy was (cuddling with Kayla and her sweet daughter). Overall, it was an excellent first visit and we look forward to more daycare and probable boarding in the future.”


8. Haley W.
About: I’ve been taking care of a wide variety of pets since I was physically able to. I grew up in a household where taking care of animals was part of our everyday lives. My mom has worked in the animal field all her life and I followed in her footsteps until I had my first son 3 years ago and am now a stay at home mom. I started as a receptionist at my local animal hospital, moved on to a technician, and spent 4 years as a kennel supervisor until I moved on to emergency animal care. I understand whole heartedly that animals are more than just pets, they are family and will be treated as such when they are in my care. I am currently a stay at home mom to four children, I am available almost 24/7 to be able to care for your pet, and have a very flexible schedule I have a decent sized yard, it is not fenced in but your pet will never be left unsupervised outside. I am a firm believer that pets are family and will be treated as such. There is no limitations on where your pet will be allowed to go in my home. They want to jump up on the couch for some snuggles? Go right ahead. Feel more comfortable at night in my room? Come right on in. The way your pet is cared for at your home is how they will be treated here.


9. Kristy R.

“Kristy was great and accommodated a last minute request to watch our dog Ranger for the day. Her communication was very timely and she took great care of our pup!”


10. Chris G.
About: I’ve had my knee replaced which has slowed me down a tad but also allows me be to home all the time. We recently lost our old boy (dog of 12 years) and while my cats have helped me to survive, I have so much more love to give! For now I want to spend time with others’ dogs to help fill the whole in my heart. I genuinely want to make every animal a friend of mine! I will always lead with love, care and respect. I work from home already which is usually stuff I take care of in the evenings anyway but I have the time, love and space to accommodate your furry family members. We currently have three lovable cats and one old dog that we recently took in. The cats have been around lots of animals and just want love. The dog struggles to move around too much so keeps to himself mostly. We have a big open area indoors for them and lots of yard as well.


11. Kristine A.

“Grateful to Kristine for her supreme care of my senior Maltese BrotherWilly. He is a happy pup for the kind care this afternoon. As this is my first experience with Rover, my nerves were also quelled by photos, videos and communication that Kristine provided. Thank you very much, Christine (and Rover). Sincerely grateful.”


12. Kerri L.

“Kerri was awesome ! Hutchinson had a great day-lots of walks and playing -we will be using Kerri again!”


13. Elizabeth G.
“I love Liz…I have 2 cats that have separate anxiety when I’ve traveled or have left them in the house by themselves for an extended period of time. I have had too many returned trips that have resulted in vet trips when I have gotten home because of their anxiety; UTIs. So I finally decided I needed more than my family dropping by daily to check in on my “guys” when I traveled. Liz came to the rescue. I’ve known Liz for years and she knew how important my cats were to me. After I told her I had to do something different than having family drop by she said she would love to help. After losing her own “special needs” pup, she jumped in to help me. She said yes to living in my home while I traveled. Without asking, she sent pictures to help me feel less anxious about leaving them. To me, she is a godsend. Please don’t worry with Liz. You can trust her with your precious pets and your home. Enjoy your travels.”

16. Peggysue P.
“She is amazing with people and even better with animals she loves spending time out side so the pets will get a lot of exercise and she likes to keep a daily routine”
