Dawn was an excellent host. She has a wonderful house and fenced in yard where the dogs can run around. She has a great dog friendly house where the dogs have many places to sleep and roam around. She is well versed in pet care and comfortable with the dogs. She sends great photos and I always know that my dog is safe with her.

I couldn't have asked for better care than what Richelle provided. She was very understanding about Teddy's separation anxiety and all that came with it. Definitely will rebook with Richelle!

About: I have experience with many breeds and ages, and have been the primary carer for our current two dogs since birth. What can I say dogs just like me . Retired from my chosen career path now full-time homemaker. I currently watch our two pups and we would love a new friend to play with! I have a nice, big fenced backyard, and a fenced in front porch. My current dogs go out about every 2-3 hours during the day, but I can adhere to your dogs schedule if different. I often spend lots of time outside with my dogs, playing, and hanging out enjoying the day.

We left our dog, Lewis, with Tim & Katarzyna while we traveled, and they did an excellent job. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring. They kept us updated with messages and photos, which helped us relax and enjoy our trip knowing Lewis was in such great hands. Lewis was clearly well cared for and happy—he came home calm, healthy, and maybe even a little spoiled (in the best way). It was obvious they treated him like part of their family. We would absolutely use them again without hesitation. Highly recommend Tim & Katarzyna to anyone looking for trustworthy, kind, and attentive pet sitters!

Our 7yo mini goldendoodle stayed with Sabrina and her family for a week. She was happy when we picked her up and has been napping steadily since we brought her home. We did miss routine photo updates so will definitely ask for that specifically next time. Highly Recommended!

I cannot say enough about Karla! I was so anxious about leaving our Bassett, Luci, while being gone for a big trip! Luci has some separation anxieties. Karla was so reassuring. She let us do a meet and greet and also watched her for a bit another day before she stayed. I got pics and videos daily of their many adventures - walking, rural king, and the dog park! This brought me so much joy! Luci enjoyed having playtime with her dogs too. They truly treated Luci like their own. I highly recommend Karla! ❤️

I wanted to share my immense gratitude for the outstanding care you've provided to Mocha during his stays with you through Rover. Your passion for animals truly shines through, and it's evident that Mocha not only receives top-notch care but also experiences genuine love and attention. Your updates and photos are not only a delightful touch but also a testament to your commitment to keeping pet owners like myself informed and reassured. It's clear that you go above and beyond to make Mocha feel comfortable and happy in your care. I appreciate your reliability and the peace of mind you provide, knowing that Mocha is in such capable and caring hands. Your attention to detail, from his walks to his feeding routine, does not go unnoticed and is sincerely valued. Thank you, Natasa, for being an exceptional Rover caregiver. I highly recommend your services to anyone seeking a dedicated and trustworthy individual to look after their furry friends.

Absolutely perfect with my senior dog. Kept me updated on everything. Sent pictures when asked. And even smoothed over my overthinking of her stay. Nicole will make sure your family member is safe while you are away. Will be using her when needed in the future.

About: Reliable dog care from a boarding kennel worker with hands-on experience in daily care, routines, and behavior. Beginning AKC training soon. With some veterinary experience as well. I have a flexible schedule as a full-time student, so I can stop by before or after classes for walks, feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and other care needs. I’m happy to help with weekend visits and can do overnight stays when possible. I’m comfortable traveling up to about 25 miles for pet care. I treat every pet like part of my family, giving plenty of attention, love, and consistency. Inside my home, I maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, following each pet’s routine for meals, bathroom breaks, play, and rest. I’m attentive to behavior, health, and individual needs, and I make sure pets feel secure, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. My reliability, patience, and flexibility help me provide personalized care that puts both pets and owners at ease.

About: I bring extensive professional experience in animal care and behavior, including years in shelter leadership and hands-on behavior work with fearful, anxious, and reactive animals. My background includes behavior assessment, stress reduction, enrichment planning, and individualized care for dogs who struggle with transitions, confinement, or unfamiliar people. I am especially comfortable working with dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication rather than force or correction. I prioritize low stress handling, predictable routines, and meeting dogs where they are emotionally, not just physically. My goal is always to keep animals safe, supported, and understood while their people are away. I maintain a flexible, well-managed schedule that allows me to accommodate a wide range of client needs, including weekdays, weekends, and varying visit times, with appropriate advance notice. I care for pets by balancing structure with relationship-building. I focus on creating predictable routines, clear communication, and calm expectations while also prioritizing rapport, confidence, and emotional safety. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals and adjust care in real time to meet each pet where they are emotionally. Rather than forcing compliance, I help animals work through fear, overstimulation, or uncertainty at a pace they can handle. Whether in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where pets feel safe, understood, and supported, which allows genuine progress and trust to develop. My pets at home enjoy structure along with play and lots of quiet time. My dog, Albany, enjoys finding hidden treats in a fenced backyard. My three cats, Duchess, Wanda, and Addie, enjoy plenty of naps, wand toy play time, and many hours of cuddling and watching tv.
