Bill and Ashlee were wonderful with Major! He was on an antibiotic and they gladly and carefully treated him as needed. Our booking was also kind of last minute and they generously offered to watch him for us! Will use their service again!

Megan and her family were excellent dog sitters for our two Viszla’s! Our dogs have a lot of energy and they kept them active while in their care. It was so nice to get updates during our trip. They took very good care of our dogs and we were so thankful for them!

5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!

Clover had an awesome time with Sarah and her pups. This was our first time using Rover and Sarah made us super comfortable with the process. She was very fast with responses, and sent updates and photos while we were away. Her dogs were very friendly with us and made quick friends with Clover. Would recommend to anyone, and will definitely use again.

Carissa was absolutely the best! Taking care of 2 large breed puppies isn't easy, but she was so great with them! She really knows dogs, and obviously realized what they were capable of as far as mischief and issues with cats and other dogs but handled them perfectly with no problems. My dogs were comfortable with her, and well taken care of with her house. Not to even mention the beautiful yard! She was beyond generous with updates and pictures. She really went out of her way to reassure me that they were alright. (I was nervous!) I am so excited to have a trusted sitter, and Carissa will definitely be seeing more of my pups in the future!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. My own pup, Wilfred, is deeply loved and spoiled—just the way every dog should be! I regularly dog sit throughout the year and truly love animals with all my heart. I'm kind, patient, and gentle with every pet I meet. I also pride myself on keeping a clean, safe environment and staying active to ensure your dog gets the play, exercise, and attention they deserve. With me, your furry family member will be treated like my own—loved, entertained, and well cared for. While I now work during the day, I’m still fully committed to providing attentive and loving care for your pet. I’m available for midday check-ins during lunch and am free after 4:30 PM to spend the entire evening giving them the attention and companionship they deserve. Your pet’s well-being remains a top priority in my home. I provide a calm, loving environment and tailor care to each pet’s routine and needs—whether they stay in my home or I visit theirs. I’m available for midday check-ins and spend evenings giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Your pet will be treated like family every step of the way.

Chanse was phenomenal! I left my cat with her for a long weekend and everything went so well! Chanse made every effort to make my pet feel comfortable at her home, updated me regularly with photos, and truly treated her as if she was part of her family. She communicated well, went out of her way to purchase some treats to help my cat acclimate, asked thoughtful questions, and truly cared about the wellbeing of my pet. Her home is very welcoming and safe, and I would absolutely trust her again with any pet. I highly recommend Chanse for any of your pet needs!
