“My pup had a really amazing stay at Brittney’s home! Her and the kids are super sweet, caring and easy going. Them took the pup for a hike and totally burned her hyper energy, really appreciate the care and love for Sango’s short stay!”


“Amazing as always! And our puppy intro of Kiva is going perfectly! I can't wait for her to start :) Although I need to run it by Bagheera as she will be crashing his party!!!”


About: I have cared for dogs from puppies to senior pups. I have taken care of family pets for family and for friends. I have also cat sat for many of my friends and family. I am done with work around 5pm so there is plenty of daylight to get in a good walk for your dog or a good game of fetch! I currently care for our 3 dogs with multiple walks through the day and hikes when time allows. Also I play with the cat atleast once a day

About: I've been trusted to take care of multiple types of dogs since ~age 10! I am an animal lover at heart, and I've had many different animals throughout my lifetime, including an African Pgymy Hedgehog. I pride myself on providing top-notch care in all aspects, ensuring your dog is comfortable in my home, feels safe, is well taken care of, and having fun! I work from home so I will have plenty of time to devote toward caring for your fur baby! I am able to provide frequent potty breaks, medications and meals as scheduled, as well as love and treats throughout the day! Can also provide anything else your pup may require. I have a fenced in grass back yard with a pool, as well as an unfenced grass front yard area. I have a dog of my own, a 2.5 yr old cattle dog/lab mix named Zelda who is extremely friendly, intelligent, and high energy. Although she does have the ability to be chill as well! At our home, we typically enjoy some exercise in the morning such as a walk in the woods, followed by mid-morning nap time, then later in the afternoon, play time with jolly balls or tennis balls, or swimming in our fenced in backyard pool area/ playing in the hose if your pup so desires. Evening usually consist of another walk along with treats and relaxing on the couch. I also have a large crate that can be set up as needed.

“Christy was wonderful! She and her family took great care of our dog. They took him on walks and made sure he was well-loved the entire time. We received regular updates and pictures while we were away, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We’ll absolutely book with Christy again the next time we travel!”


“Kim was wonderful and went above and beyond to make Ronin and Winnie comfortable. They had a great stay. She sent pictures and updates frequently. I highly recommend Kim!”


“Hannah and Abraham cared for our dog Mochi while we were away on vacation and we were so grateful to have them do so! Mochi got along so well with their two dogs and we loved seeing them interact in videos! Hannah sent many photos and videos of the dogs which helped put us at ease while we were traveling. Mochi got lots of cuddles and exercise daily and we wouldn’t hesitate to have them watch her again!”


About: Being a long time animal lover, I love spending my time walking and training dogs. I’ve worked at various animal hospitals, doggy daycares, and boarding facilities. I am willing to travel, and it would be a great perk if my 3 year old lab could come play or walk with your pup as well! My schedule is very flexible. I am willing to travel, and am open to schedule changes to work with your needs as well. I can do holidays as well as weekends with a planned notice. All I want is for your pet to feel comfortable and have a great time playing and/or going for a walk. Engaging shy/fearful dogs with toys and treats is always a great way to earn trust.

“So happy we had Julie-Ann watch our pups. She always stayed in touch with us and sent us photos throughout our trip. Appreciate feeling so comfortable while we were away.”


About: My name is Ben and I live with my wife, Laura, in Canaan. I work from home and we are both available as needed throughout the day to provide close supervision, companionship and outdoor time for your pet. We grew up with a lot of pets, and have always loved being around dogs especially. We have had several Saint Bernards in the past and are comfortable with large dogs. Whatever the shape or size, we look forward to getting to know your pet and giving them the best care we can provide. We are happy to host and are flexible to travel, both weekdays and weekends. Looking forward to hearing from you! Availability 7 days/week with flexible work hours. Can travel to your home and stay overnight if needed as well as take out for walks during the day. Our house is spacious and comfortable with a large yard and surrounding areas to take for walks. Will follow instructions carefully to best accommodate different needs.

“Lika was fantastic! Took a million pictures and kept us in the loop with the weekends activities with Franklin. He loved her! Will absolutely be utilizing her services again! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”


“Highly recommended!!! Katie and her family are absolutely wonderful! They took such good care of our puppy while we were on vacation, making her feel right at home. She gave updates everyday and sent photos regularly. She was also very flexible with my schedule. The fenced in backyard & a few doggie playmates made us feel so comfortable leaving Millie behind! She was in doggie heaven 🐶”


“Laura & Bill are the best!! My 12 year old golden loves being in their comfy home!! Never did I worry about Emma! When I am back in this area again, I will be calling Laura & Bill for sure. Thank you so much ❤️”


“My dogs are use to structure and I chose her because of her profile stating trainer experience. She was a amazing care giver. She kept us posted with pictures and communicated very well. The dogs seem very at ease when I brought them home. Also I was nervous because this is my first time using rover she provided me with a great experience. She has earned a repeat customer. Thank you for taking great care of them.”


“Steve and Keely took amazing care of my 11-month old black lab Rain. Their lab Sabra and Rain became fast friends and played together constantly during her 2-day stay. Rain had plenty of room inside and had daily walks and outside time as well. Steve sent me photos and updates throughout her stay. I have already rebooked with Steve for a weeklong trip I am taking next week. I can’t recommend him enough.”


“Five stars hands-down. Isabella and her family took amazing care of our dog. She sent us tons of pics, and it was clear that Potato, for that weekend, was considered a member of her family. It was a bonus that she came home super tired and played-out ?. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great home-away-from-home for their dog. Thank you Isabella!”
