“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”


“Royal and Rachelle were excellent. They are kind and we could tell took great care in our dog and the others they care for. They communicated all week long and gave us updates on our Bella. We felt 100% confident in leaving our dog with them while we were away for the week! Thank you!”


“Dewi and I have had a wonderful first experience boarding with Alex! I was out of the country for two weeks, but always could tell form the updates, photos and videos that my gentle old man was in the best of care. Especially loved seeing him get special attention on his 15th birthday! Alex has much experience with all types of dogs, and it shows. Very professional. Thank you so much!”


“Cindy is great! She has a great yard for my dog to enjoy outside time with her dogs. She sends daily pictures to show he is doing great. I always feel confident that he is safe in her care.”


“This was the longest time I've been away from my pup and Michelle did another amazing job. He always looks like he's having the best time with Milo and I appreciate all the updates and pictures they send! So happy to have found a great sitter for my boy!”



“Hilary took wonderful care of Oakland during my five-night trip! Oakland loved running in the yard, and Hilary kept me at ease with regular updates. I felt completely comfortable leaving her in her care and will definitely reach out to her again for future dog-sitting needs!”


“During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!”

About: I have had dogs, cats and birds my entire life. I will treat your fur babies as I would treat my own. Nothing but love I am at home all day as I am an artist. And work from home. I work out of the home 3 evenings a week. I have a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a 25ft lead or I can simply walk them. I have 2 pet parakeets and a Great Dane that recently went to heaven at almost 12. Pets are always allowed on my couches and beds and I miss the snuggles.

“Matt was absolutely wonderful our Dalmatian, Juniper! He was also so accommodating when our flight home was cancelled resulting in us picking her up a couple hours later than originally scheduled. I would highly recommend him if you ever need a sitter for your dog, and would not hesitate to book with him in the future.”



“This was a great experience for both me and Mila. Tiffany took such great care of my fur baby and sent me pictures so I knew how she was doing throughout her stay! Tiffany will definitely be my go to dog sitter moving forward.”


“Lauren was willing to take Leo on short notice and she did amazing. She gave me a bunch of pictures of him and kept me updated. Would definitely bring Leo back”



“Luna frequents Laura’s quite a bit but this was her longest stay and it was such a peace of mind to us being across the country knowing she was at her home away from home. The pictures Laura sent throughout the week showed she was having the happiest vacation herself 😎🐾”


“Jeffrey was fantastic with my dog! He sent me lots of updates and pictures while I was away, so I was always confident that Malcolm was being well taken care of. I also appreciated that Jeffrey was happy to take Malcolm on good walks and also cuddle with him when they were just hanging out. I highly recommend this Rover!”


About: Experience caring for dogs in all ages and stages. Comfortable giving medications, following special diets, and anything else to keep your dog healthy and happy. I work full-time Monday-Friday, but am available in the evenings and weekends. I’m okay with adding additional furry members to my household while you travel and/or dropping in to check on them in the comfort if their own home. Full disclaimer: I have a senior dog, a cat, and school-aged children. Everyone in my household is friendly with both dogs and cats. My yard is fenced (4ft, chain-link) and dogs have access to a screened in porch if they prefer staying outdoors during the day. I’m more than happy to keep them inside, either crated or not, depending on your preferences.
