“Danny helped us out by spending the day with our puppy after her surgery. It was so nice to know she was well taken care of. As always, Danny is super easy to communicate with and takes great care of our pets and home.”

“This was the first time we have used Rover, and our selected dog-sitter was wonderful with our one year old border collie mix rescue—Boots. She came over for a meet and greet, kept Boots happy with walks, fetch games and companionship, and kept the house neat. We would happily engage her again and highly recommend her to others.”

“If I could give 10/10 stars I would. Julie is an exceptional dog sitter. She took care of my boy Rocky making sure he was comfortable and happy. Julie has great communication and made sure to send pictures throughout the day of Rocky when doing fun activities. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone that has dog with a lot of energy running around on the beach or dog that likes slow a walk through the neighborhood. She is an experienced expert in her craft and you know your baby will be taken care of. -Artie”

About: After my dog Currito passed away, I realized how much love I still have to give. Caring for other dogs is my way of honoring him and sharing that love. I will treat every dog with patience, affection, and respect, making sure they feel safe, cared for, and truly loved. I am currently working full time but I am available daily after 3:45 pm. I can offer boarding on weekends after Fridays at 3:00 pm. I can take care of your pet at your own home or at my mine ( I live in an appartment) I adapt to your lovely fur friend.
“Karen-Joyce did a wonderful job pet sitting for us on a long weekend trip! She was very detailed in learning about our needs beforehand, and very communicative. It's easy to tell how great she is with dogs. While this was our first time using Karen-Joyce as a sitter, we immediately felt confident after our meet & greet and had no hesitations. She left our house clean and the dogs were happy and well cared for! Definitely recommend :)”

About: Hello I'm Madeline, and I'm here to care for your pet just as I do for my own! I love cats and dogs alike, and have taken care of many different breeds and personality types over the years. I've yet to find any pet that I can't handle! Your pets will be loved and cared for so you don't have to worry while you are away :) For Boarding: I live on 5 acres of a wonderful pinon paradise, where your dog(s) can play and hike to their heart's content! I take my own pup for 3 walks a day, so yours will get plenty of exercise. And if they don't mind the car, I'm happy to take them to parks and longer hikes if you like! I work from home so will give them my full attention 24/7. I pay very close attention to any specific needs for diet, behavior, or whatever special instructions you give. I love to send photos and updates as often as you like, so you can see they are happy and healthy! If it's drop-in visits only, I give my full attention to playing, hugging, entertaining your pets the entire time they are here. I hate leaving my pets behind while I travel, so I know how to ensure other owners that their pets are cared for as if they were my own :) I currently work my own schedule so can be flexible with whatever your pets needs may be. If they are boarding in my home, they will have 24/7 attention. I own 5 acres with a good portion fenced in if staying at my home. I love energetic hikes and walks and will cater to your dog's fitness level. I take my own cat outdoors on a harness and would be happy to train yours too! Whatever level of care your pet is accustomed to, I will deliver the same while they are in my care.
