“Lee has been an absolute life-saver for care for our dog. I love leaving her with loving people, like Lee, in a home, rather than in a kennel. I, enthusiastically recommend Lee to anyone and everyone looking for a dog sitter.”


“I'm extremely picky about where I'll leave Remi. He's very high energy and very sensitive to new environments. He gets sick and loses weight at traditional kennels (learned this the hard way) so we don't use them. This was just a quick weekend trip, but we got lots of pictures & updates and picked up a happy, healthy, & very tired pup tonight :) Definitely recommend!!”

“Emily always takes good care of Scout. Scout comes home so much more relaxed than when she goes to the kennel, so I know Emily makes her feel at home. She even took special care and administered meds when Scout had a wound right before drop off. Hire her!”

“Just picked up our pup, Mike and his family are amazing! From communication to flexibility to treating our pup as their own, I can’t say enough good things about this family and experience (in a new city). Thank you, thank you, thank you! 10/10 WILL be utilizing their care again!”

About: I have 3 huskies. The oldest is 14 and the youngest is 4. I also have 2 cats aging 7-16 years. I have given medications to animals numerous times over the years. My animals are treated like family. My entire family loves animals. We even play with with our neighbors animals. I work 3 nights a week and I'm home all day until I go in to work. Besides those times, I’m usually home and if I’m out it’s usually only a couple of hours. I have a fenced in yard with two runners as well as two large crates. My dogs have their own area in my home that includes dog beds and their own chaise.

“Our dogs loved their time with Jessica! They felt right at home from the first moment. She kept us updated and went above and beyond to help our dogs have a great week while we were away.”


“Tracy was a phenomenal host! He took great care of my pup while providing a safe and clean space for her to spend five days all the while providing me perfect updates. I will definitely use him again!”


“Anthony took great care of our energetic pup! She seemed so happy and well-loved when we picked her up, and it was clear that she had a fun time. She even looked a bit sad watching Anthony leave — a true sign that he’s a fantastic sitter. I really appreciated the way he cared for her like his own. Highly recommend!”


“Incredible sitter, so kind and my dog warmed up to her immediately (which he never does). She made things so easy, I could actually relax on my vacation. All around wonderful experience.”


“Justyce was very kind and took really good care of our fur baby.she took him out for walks and kept us updated daily.we will definitely contact her again whenever we will need and we will recommend her to our friends too”


“Elena came through for us when we needed a last minute dog sitter. Great communication and sent photos and videos. She was reliable and attentive to our labradoodle, who tends to be anxious.”



“My baby came home tired!! Lol, I know he had an amazing time with Ms Summer. I expressed my concerns to her about his last boarding with a vet in Montgomery. And the fact that he's never been around other dogs to play. She sent pictures when she could catch him. (He's very hyper.) She also updated me every day. I would recommend her for all your sitter needs. My baby came home the exact way I dropped him off. Thank you Ms Summer. We'll be seeing you soon.”


“I am so Happy that my baby found her second family. Sugga will definitely be returning any for our future trips. We're so glad to have found Kimberly. She's the best, Kimberly was very communicable she also sent pictures and videos. I say, if you want your dog loved on and taken care of as you would yourself, choose Kimberly she's absolutely the best.”


“Rebecca is a gem; I'm so glad we found her. I just picked my 9mo miniature schnauzer after her second visit (and first over-nighter). Rebecca send pictures and videos throughout the visit, and it's clear Izzy had a blast with her and her husband. It is so comforting to know that Izzy has a "second home" when needed. Thanks, Rebecca!”



“Very happy with the care our pups received. They warmed right up at her house. Both our pups were happy when we picked them up and I could tell they were comfortable in her home.”


“Lindsey was amazing! Reggie seemed to love her! She sent me pictures of my cat almost every day and was so understanding when my flight was delayed. Would definitely board with her again!”


About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and got my first very own dog 15 years ago, an English bulldog named Zoey. We lost her to cancer last year, and now have our amazing boxer Abby, who just turned one year old! I have cared for friends’ dogs multiple times throughout the years, and have experience caring for dogs of various ages. We have had dogs stay for just one or two nights, up to 1-2 weeks at a time, so we are flexible in meeting your needs! I also have experience with giving medications as needed! After offering sitting via Facebook and word of mouth, I figured why not make it Rover official 🐶 As a stay at home mom to two little boys, ages 7 and 5 my schedule is very flexible! My husband Sy works in the oil field in Oklahoma and is home every two weeks. I am home most hours of the day, with the exception of day-to-day errands such as going to this grocery store, or kid drop off and pick ups for various appointments! I also substitute teach at my boys elementary school during the weeks when my husband is home from his work rotations! So basically, if I’m subbing he is home! I am available for boarding 7 days a week. We also feel that is it important to share that our youngest son, Max is non-verbal autistic. Max is the sweetest, quietest little boy who does extremely well with dogs who come into our home. And in all honesty, he is so indifferent and could care less lol 💕 he loves our Abby and just walks around dogs who have stayed with us. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this, we are happy to answer 😊 We have a very large backyard that we are in the process of getting fenced in on August 1st! Until that time all friends are walked safely via leash in the backyard for potty breaks! Our dog Abby is very social and loves playing with other dogs! We strive to emulate as much of a “home away from home experience”, as possible and we will do our best to keep your dog on the same schedule they are accustomed to at home! Your dog will be snuggled and loved as if they were a member of our own family! I have a spare crate if your dog is crate trained, as well as a cozy room with extra dog beds if they do best tucked in to a quiet space when we are out of the home. Your dog is welcome to hang out on the couch or on a bed! We are here for all the snuggles! If you prefer them to sleep in a crate, that’s what we will do! I so look forward to snuggling your fur baby and giving them a “home away from home” experience.
