“Karissa did a wonderful job watching my baby. She sent plenty of photos and it made me feel happy and secure that my boy was behaving and doing well. I would definitely seek out her services again.”
“We needed a dog sitter for two weeks during our vacation and were nervous about leaving our one year old Cockapoo who had never left home or been separated from us before. Julia came highly recommended from another Rover sitter who wasn't available during our stay and who utilizes Julia's services for her own dog. Julia was very sensitive to our boy's needs and WOW did he blossom during his stay with her! His fear of other dogs disappeared and he was soon confidently roaming with the big boys! We worried and missed him like crazy, but Julia's AWESOME daily pics and updates made us laugh and smile and alleviated any concerns we had. She was quick to respond to texts answering questions and providing reassurance when needed. Upon departure our boy slept the five hour trip home he was so exhausted from all the playing with his friends in Julia's huge backyard! I am so grateful to Julia for providing a loving safe environment for our dog's first separation and for the beneficial socialization he received while under her care. I highly recommend her and will use her services again.”
“Lauren and Kelly are ahhh-mazing! They are so kind, accommodating and treat your pet like a part of their own family. They sent me photos throughout my time away. My dog came home so happy and I swear he was smiling when I picked him up! So trustworthy and loving to your furry family member. Can not thank them enough or say enough to express the feeling that you feel, knowing that your pet is safe and loved while you are away!!! 💗💕💗”
“Deb is an incredible dog sitter. We boarded our 1.5 year old Ruby with Deb and her great dogs for 5 nights. Deb has the exact attention to detail and care that you give your own dog which is all you can ask for. She went above and beyond and we will certainly go back to her for any future needs. Thanks again Deb!”

“Jessica was great! She really knows what she’s doing. Felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her. It was a bonus that she has a frenchie too!”
“My dogs came home exhausted from having such a good time at Heather’s. I loved the updates on the daily with the adorable pictures of all the fun that was had.”
“Kathleen was such a joy to work with when my husband and I were looking for someone to care for our black lab (1.25 years old) while away on a long weekend trip. From the initial outreach, Kathleen was extremely responsive and accommodating to schedule a meet up before booking. She was extremely welcoming and loving to our pup. Kathleen also was very easy to communicate with in the days leading up to our trip to make sure we were all on the same page with the time to drop off Chappy and other details of his stay. During the stay, Kathleen provided multiple updates each day - many walks, lots of play time, videos, pictures, and texts to ensure he was having a great time and doing well. We felt so comfortable with Kathleen watching Chappy, especially since this was our first time using Rover and having someone other than family watch our dog. Kathleen was extremely organized, returning all of Chappy’s items we left her with and was very easy to work with. We would definitely recommend working with Kathleen and we will definitely book with Kathleen again for future needs when we are away. She was so great!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner most of my life and I’m just looking for more cool animals to hang out with! There are no resident animals in my home currently after my sweet senior passed. But I would love to host your tiny loved one! I’m currently only accepting boarding pets. I do work close enough to my home that I can stop by during the day if that is necessary. I accept only one pet or pet family at a time so there are no stranger animals around. My backyard is not fenced so all outside activity will be leashes.
“Amanda was fantastic! We were un able to do a meet and greet ahead of time as we were traveling, but she was so welcoming and sweet and my dogs took to her immediately! I felt very comfortable leaving them overnight and was able to enjoy my niece's baby shower! Amanda sent pictures and updates which helped set me at ease. I highly recommend her and would bring my girls back without a question!”
“Stephen took extra sweet care of my bulldog Stella. Fantastic and frequent communicator, I truly appreciate the updates and pictures of Stella throughout her stay. 100% would recommend Stephen and consider for future Cape boarding needs!”
