“Tommy and Julie were great. They watched my two dogs for six days and provided me with updates and videos multiple times per day. It was clear my boys were safe, happy, and loved while there. Will definitely be working with Tommy and Julie in the future when I have to leave town!”
“Outstanding!! we love that we got multiple pictures and videos every single day. They took care of our pup like she was one of their own. Their dog has a great temperament and I’m sure our dog will miss playtime and naps with him! I will absolutely book again!”
“Kyle was an outstanding sitter for our little guy. Responded to all my text messages within minutes and always sent photos and videos. Looks like Arthur had an awesome time staying at Kyle’s house while we were on vacation! Was willing to do a meet-and-greet beforehand too which was a great way to give us peace of mind about who we were sending our dog to stay with. Thanks Kyle!!!”
“Melody was an amazing dog sitter. She really cared and loved our dog. She was in regular communication with us during our family trip. The best compliment that I can give will be that we would use her again in the future.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were pretty nervous because of some of the stories you hear, but after meeting Lucy we felt completely at ease. She is such a kind and genuine person that we instantly trusted her with our St. Bernard Millie. Millie can be semi reactive around other dogs, so knowing that Lucy has experience with dogs like her really eased our worries. Throughout the stay she kept us updated with photos and videos and made sure Millie was happy, active, and well cared for. We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter.”
“Valeria is a wonderful dog sitter! She picked up my dog from my cousin’s house nearby and had him while we were traveling overseas. She sent photos of him inside, on walks, and playing. At least 3 a day. She had very specific questions about him and asked permission for types of treats. She was always available to message back and forth about my dog and was very clear about how he spent his days. My dog looked very happy and very well cared-for at her house. I definitely recommend Valeria and will absolutely re-book with her!”
“Julie is fantastic with dogs. She takes great care of Harlie, as if she were her own. Her sweet Pug Daisy is such a lovely companion for my dog. Such a great dog sitter!”
“Finn had a great time with Nicole, and we were so pleased to have found her. Finn is a 7-yr old Lab and full of energy. But Nicole was a pro, and Finn showered her with kisses. It was our first time and it was such a relief to know our pup would be safe and happy with Nicole. Already booking our next boarding appointment. We highly recommend leaving your fur baby in Nicole’s capable hands.”
About: Bella’s Journey Pet care was born from my 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog from puppyhood to her senior years. This lifelong journey taught me the joys and challenges of nurturing a pet through every stage of life—from playful puppy antics to managing the unique needs of an aging pet, including mobility support, medication, and gentle care. My deep understanding of pet behavior and health means I provide patient, compassionate, and personalized care for your beloved dog. I’m dedicated to treating your pets like family, supporting their happiness and well-being. Bella has crossed the rainbow bridge, but her Mom has plenty of love to share! We were also very blessed to own and care for three horses over a period of 15 years. Much larger scale than your beloved family remember. But an added layer of comfort knowing we are equipped for small and larger responsibilities! My background in holistic approaches to pet care will also offer you and your pet ease of mind. My schedule is flexible to match that or my clients needs. In your home. Or mine if I do not have an in home overnight on the schedule. Reliable, caring in-home pet sitter providing attentive, stress-free care, feeding, walks, medication, and companionship, ensuring your pets stay comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gages Lake
Allison and Jason were phenomenal! I did boarding at their house over a holiday weekend. They did great keeping my pup happy and healthy. She came home worn out (in a good way) and did lots of relaxing. I love the amount of attention and stimulation they were able to provide her. I could tell she had a great time! I will definitely rebook with them in the future if I’m able.
Our experience was wonderful. Our dog had the best time staying with Jordan, getting lots of love, interactions, and playtime. Jordan made it really easy for us to have a relaxing vacation, knowing that our dog was taken care of. Our pup (and family) is so glad to have found a new friend!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
