“Badger felt right at home with Anner! Anner has proven to be a great Rover and host, shared pics and was always communicative. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking Anner in the future!”
“Kevin was amazing with our dog. It was his first time there and sometimes we get him back a little anxious. The environment and care that Kevin provided left our pup happy and calm.”
“Judy is super attentive and communicative. I got several photos and updates a day assuring me that mango was extremely well taken care of. Would absolutely recommend. Mango comes back happy and tired and is more than happy to go back for another stay with Judy.”
“Chaz just had another long stay with Rosediane. As always, she kept us updated with texts and pictures. Chaz had a great time with Rosediane and we’re so happy to have found her!”
“Irene was awesome, very good vibes, a peaceful home setting & my Shih Tzu loved staying with her, playing in her big enclosed yard & going on walks with her, etc. while we were on our family cruise. My fur baby was in good hands with her & I'll definitely board her with Irene the next time we go away!”
“Tina & Jon again a nourishing environment for our puppy with their own fur babies. Great fun for all. Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Magdalena. My Pup really seemed to love his stay! She was so attentive to his needs. She would send me updates and pictures. She has a great backyard for him to run around which is enclosed. In addition her pup really helped put my pup at ease. I will definitely be using her in the future! Thanks Magdalena!”
“Melissa is a thoughtful and caring dog-sitter. She told me she loves dogs and it show in all her actions when she dog sat my labradoodle. She read him very well and met his emotional needs.”
“Rosa was absolutely fantastic! It’s always nerve racking when you leave your fur baby with a new sitter, but we had a wonderful experience with Rosa. She stayed in constant communication sending pics and videos, and even spoiled Rover with toys and special walks to the store. We will definitely use Rosa again and highly recommend her. She went above and beyond in every way, including pick up and drop off service.”
“Rich was an amazing dog sitter! He was very accommodating and flexible when my travel plans were delayed and very communicative with pictures and updates while I was away. The property is very dog friendly with the fenced in back yard and the neighborhood is lovely. I would 100% recommend Rich and will definitely be using him as my go to dog sitter going forward. Thank you Rich!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since having our first family dog when I was little. I trained our family dog to not only have discipline, but also do tricks! I recently trained my friend’s dog to do some fun tricks too. I love to give the pups all the attention and patience they deserve. I shared a cat all through college with my roommate and am familiar with cats needs. I currently have Friday-Sunday off so I’d love to board or do walks on the weekend. I’m also available in the mornings and evenings if walks are needed then. I live close to lots of walking paths and dog parks. It’s a great area to go on long walks or to the dog parks!
“Elvia is the best! Our dachshund loves her and so do we. Super reliable and takes such good care of our pup. We’ve used Elvia for both daytime and overnights and would highly recommend!”
“Excellent at short notice service”
“Took the time to make sure my pup was at home and comfortable. He can be a little shy at first but Carrigan made sure he felt safe. Unsurprisingly, he seemed to adjust very quickly.”
“Jorge gave me updates everyday on Coco. He prioritized her needs and was genuinely involved in her daily routine giving her what she needed when she needed it. I've booked multiple stays with Jorge and feel extremely at ease knowing my dog is in a loving environment.”
“My dog was well taken care of. Elaine is very sweet and kind. Had some tips on helping my dogs anxiety. Extremely responsive and willing to work with you. I will definitely board with her again!”
“Frank did an exceptional job taking care of our puppy. On the way home, she shared how attentive (her words!!!) and caring he is. He even has a magical way of creating an open parking space right when it's time to drop her off. Highly recommend Frank for taking care of your fur baby : )”
“Cooper had a great time with Judith and her family. We booked Judith for a last minute doggy daycare and I felt comfortable leaving cooper with her right off the bat. Will definitely use her again.”
“I’m so glad we found Tina. Kallie who can be skeptical about unfamiliar situations seemed to take to her and her daughter right away. Since we rarely leave her for any length of time, we were so relieved that her stay worked out so well. Tina went beyond the call of duty - keeping us updated and sending pictures often, even cleaning Kallie’s eyes and ears. Thanks for everything Tina, and I’m sure anyone would be happy to have their dog stay with you Taffy and Mike Rodell”
“Wendy was so wonderful with our dog Charlie! He was anxious at first but she kept us updated every day on his progress! She took him to the dog park and on walks throughout the day and he eventually was very comfortable and happy! We appreciate Wendy’s care and communication! Plus she sent us so many pictures which was so nice!!”
