“Rhonda took great care of my dogs! They seemed to have a fantastic time, and she kept me updated with lots of pictures. She was also very flexible with my drop-off and pick-up schedule, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“They are super a super sweet couple who were kind enough to step up on short notice after the sitter I initially hired had a family emergency. My dog enjoyed her time at their house and all the extra outside time and walks. They administered her medicine with zero issues. We got lots of great updates and photos while we were gone, too! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Jade was awesome taking care of Bruno! She made sure to keep us updated and provided photos. She genuinely cares about animals. We will definitely book again if available. I highly recommend her”
“Absolutely amazing dog sitters. They were incredibly friendly and conscientious about Sunny while he stayed there. Also the daily updates were very thorough and always made us feel informed on how Sunny was doing.”
“Amber was great with Louie! He seemed very happy in the daily pictures! She was very punctual and easy to communicate with! Highly recommend! I hope you have her watch Louie again!”
“Stephanie and Omar were incredible! My dogs can be “a lot” but they gave them all the love and cuddles they needed. I 100% trust them with my monsters and will definitely book with them again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. I really love animals, and understand how important getting out is for their well being. When they’re happy, I’m happy! I am currently a full time student, and am living away from my own dog so I hope to get as much dog sitting time as possible. I love to to go on walks, and spend as much time outdoors as possible. I will make sure your pets get some good exercise and socialization, but will pay careful attention to make sure they don’t get into mischief!
About: I have taken care of my family and friends fur babies for two years both in my home and at their home. They entrusted me to feed and walk them while they were away. Additionally, there are discounts provided for two or more pets to be cared for and loved during your time away. Dog bathing is provided for an additional fee, if interested, in the comfort of your home so your pets are refreshed before you arrive home to them. My time at home has allowed me to love and care for my own animals, but to also provide a loving and nurturing environment for yours as well while in my care. Safety is number one in our home! Additionally, I have a fenced in yard and two dogs of my own to easily make your fur baby feel welcomed, loved, and cared during their time with us. Please understand that I do not stay in the home of others due to that I have animals of my own that need their mama home to take care of them and assist with their needs, but I am still available for house visits upon requests.
“Andrea was awesome! We booked with her for a few days and didn’t have any issues. She communicated quickly and consistently kept us updated as well provided pictures. She was also very flexible with the drop off/ pickup times. I would definitely recommend her”
“My senior dog, Ollie was in the care of Stephanie for several days while we were traveling. She sent a daily update and photo of Ollie, which I truly loved. He seemed happy to be there with the other dogs at her home. I would definitely use Stephanie again for dog boarding. She was great!”
“Katelyn was an absolute angel taking care of our baby tank! She was very understanding and assured us that tank was in good hands and being loved while we were gone. Couldn’t ask for a better experience! We didn’t have a single worry in our bones. Thank you Katelyn for taking our boy in like family, and making our first experience with rover pleasurable!”
About: I’m a long time pet owner. Two or three dogs in my house at a time. Lots of love and good pets. I’ll care for your fur baby’s like I do my own. I currently work part time so I have time to spend with your dogs or cats. The work week I can spend more time than the weekends. I have a fenced in kennel but in the winter time they are more than welcome in my home. I am also available to come to your home.
“Annie was the perfect person to leave our one year old husky mix with!!! We came up to town for a race and left our dog with her 7am-5pm. Annie has a golden doodle and sent me the CUTEST picture of her dog and our dog running around together in her backyard. She accommodated my schedule at a short notice soo nicely. I immediately felt so comfortable leaving our dog, Nali, with her. Nali instantly went up to her to say hi. Highly recommend Annie - suuuch a wonderful experience with her!! We are so thankful!!!”
“Taegan was very responsive and kept me updated the entire time. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and am sure he had a great time playing with her animals as well!”
“Lexi and John were wonderful! Orval was so comfortable at their home and they treated him like part of their family. We had flights cancelled for a couple days and because of their flexibility, Orval was the least of our concerns. I would definitely recommend booking with them!”
“My dog was a pound puppy who had been abused and still gets alopecia issues and a rash whenever he gets anxious or feels abandoned and the cat has periods where he hisses at anybody but me. I really worried about leaving them. But Myla was great. They loved her and ended their stay mellow and healthy and happy. I think they would have happily stayed longer. Myla has a caring calm demeanor and you can tell she really loves animals and enjoys their company. She sent me updates and pictures and I really appreciated the reassurance and seeing how well they were doing. I would not hesitate to leave my pets in Myla’s care for any future needs and recommend her wholeheartedly”
