“Debbie is the best sitter! My dog ,Jasper, loves to go the their house! He loves to run around in their huge secure fenced in yard and play with her dogs. She is always so great about sending pics and videos. We have been bringing our dog there for a couple years now and it has always been a great experience. She really connects and cares about our Jasper when he is there! I would highly recommend Debbie!!!”

“I just want to eternally thank Cassandra for taking care of my boy as if he were me in such a short time. She made me feel very safe and comfortable on my vacation without having to think so much, but thanks to her I was very comfortable during these days away from my baby. Thank you so much and I recommend her with my eyes closed. She is very good at what she does 👏”

Thank you so much for taking sure great care of my fur babies!”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was young. I've always had a dog, cat or bird in my home. My current dog is a rescue. I rescued her 13 years ago and she is now 14 years old. I love all animals, but you can be assured your pet will be treated like a member of my home. They will be loved, respected and treated like royalty. I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to spend with your precious pet. I'm with my dog all day. I even take her with me when I run errands. My yard is fenced in, but I will still take your pet out on walks frequently. I have a small dog, who is the love of my life, to keep your pet company. I recently rescued 2 small dogs. A toy poodle, 2, and a Yorkie-poo, 10 months. They are a mother/daughter duo.
“I was able to thoroughly relax and enjoy my own vacation knowing that Maggie was loved, well care for, and had other dogs to play with. I will definitely keep this service and Kristen M. in my contacts for all my future needs.”
“Our mini poodle, Stella, stayed with Karter and his family for a week, while we were on vacation. Karter, his fiancé, his kids and three dogs made Stella feel right at home. She even became best buddies with one of the dogs! Stella can be anxious, so I was nervous about leaving her with a rover, however Karter proved to be a fabulous sitter! His family was great, home, warm and inviting, so Stella ended up having a wonderful stay. He made sure to give us updates along with cute photos of her chilling out with the family, during her stay. We enjoyed meeting Karter and his family. They took such great care of our Stella! We’ll be sure to use Karter again 👍🏻👍🏻”
About: I have been experienced with all dogs since little, I love and adore all dogs they just mean the world to me, I had a few of my own growing up and I currently do have a miniature poodle male I am currently a stay at home mom of two, so I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your dog, I have the time and patience to play and care for them I live in a two bedroom apartment, so there is more than enough space for them to run around and play, I also have a park down the block from my house that I can walk them in and they can play in
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I’m around 10 years old. I myself have a yellow lab and a German shepherd along with 2 cats. I myself have personally trained both. I’m the person who is always out helping look for lost animals. Somehow lost animals also end up on my front porch looking for a way in. My son and I always stop to pet someone’s dog. I have a lot of patience and understanding when it comes to animals. Currently home for the summer not working. Available 24/7. No vacation plans. Large fenced in yard. Love to take my lab for walks/swims if your dog likes water. I’m up with my animals at 6 am for feedings and outside time. I would wake up when they wake up to take to the bathroom and feed. I’m usually up with my own animals around 6 am. Lots of playtime and fetch. Snuggles and treats. Walks.
