“Excellent and fantastic service. We contacted her less than a day before and she graciously accepted. Did a quick video call to discuss any thing she might need to know and dropped the pups off the next morning. Lots of pics of the pups playing and smiles on their faces. Overall an awesome service and she obviously loves what she does. Will definitely use again next time in the area.”

Thank you so much for a wonderful first experience using Rover.”


“Wayne and Holly did a great job watching over my dog for the day. You can tell right away that Wayne loves dogs and takes good care of them. His fenced yard is very secure and his house is clean and very dog friendly. My dog Louis was smiling and happy when we picked him up. He got to run around and play all day and fell asleep when we got home. He didn't seem distressed or anxious, which made me feel quite content and more than willing to have Wayne and Holly watch him again. Thank you for taking such good care of him!”


“Nala had a wonderful time at daycare with Danielle when I had to go into the office a couple of days last week! She took her out for multiple walks during the day so Nala was nice & tired by the time I picked her up after work. Danielle responded to my messages quickly and I’m thankful she was flexible when my schedule changed.”

“Will use again!”


“This was the first time we used Destiny, and we’re very happy with how well she treated Ottis on his visit. He immediately made himself at home, cuddled up to her and went to sleep! That’s the strongest endorsement I can give! Also, she was a pleasure to deal with. We had plans in the city and didn’t know exactly when we’d be back, and she was very accommodating to our schedule to pick him up. We’ll definitely use her again the next time we have plans and can’t take the Fur Baby with us!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. At the age of 18 I started to watch family friends dogs in their homes while house sitting and they relied on me to keep everything going. I am currently a full time stay at home mom to twins we had a dog but it was older. We are not ready for another dog yet but I need doggies in my life. I have a large fenced in yard and an open house so your dog can run free. I am willing to crate your dog if needed or to your liking. My parents puppy loves to come visit if your dog loves play dates.

About: If you are looking for someone to love your furbaby as much as you, you have found the her! I will give your furbaby or furbabies so much love and attention. I will play, walk, love and clean up after them. If your furbaby stays at my home, they will be welcome to anything you wish. If they are bed sleepers, they can sleep on my bed. If they are allowed on furniture at your house, they are allowed on my furniture. They will feel just as protected, comfortable and loved as at your home. I am 52 years old, married with no children. I have worked as a Legal Assistant for 32 years. My pets are my children. I have been a pet sitter for the past 5 years for family and friends of family.

She was awesome with communication and sent some cute pics right away which eased some worry. Beata has a crate at her home which was perfect for my crate training puppy. I would use her again!”
