About: I have always had a dog since the age of 5. I have trained and taken care of dogs basically my whole life! However, I don’t train, just have done the basics with mine :) I’m here to take care of your pet, and provide ease of mind so you can enjoy whatever you may be doing! I am currently a stay at home mom! I have a small, Maltese, male dog myself, so taking care of a pet is part of our routine! We go on walks and can allow for your pet to lounge and be lazy if needed too! My schedule is flexible, however there may be times I am gone for 2-4 hours at a time. My dog is very easy and flexible, so if yours is too, this is the perfect place! We do not have a fence, but we have a place where we can go on walks in our neighborhood. It’s very dog friendly! If your dog needs to be crated, they can be crated here. My dog is crated at times, but can also stay out, so if yours is trained, I am happy to let them stay out in the house. I can feed your pet at anytime, and provide multiple walks during the day depending on the need. I have a lazy dog, who enjoys sleeping most of the day, so I am able to meet your dogs varied needs!

“Jill is a favorite vacation home for our two pups! They get so excited everytime we drive up to Jill's home and never want to leave. Jill's family is incredible and loves on them just as we would! Thanks Jill for another great stay!”


“Heather and James really know what they are doing! They are both dog trainers and my dogs felt comfortable and safe. I felt secure in knowing that they knew a lot about rescues, and I appreciated that they kept my two dachshunds separated from the larger dogs. Communication was excellent as was response time.”


“Deborah was absolutely wonderful all the way around! I felt so comfortable leaving my big fur baby with her. She sent pictures and updates, and treated him like her own. I’m grateful he was able to play in a wide variety of settings, sleep comfortably, and even come home ready for a nap! This was my first time leaving him with someone, and I will absolutely come to Deborah first for the second time around. I feel comfortable using Rover as a whole starting out with such a positive experience. I would recommend her to anyone!”


“Working with Delilah has been great. My dogs have been well cared for and her communication is awesome. I totally trust Delilah and appreciate her. I left her with 3 dogs during a long trip, and she handled everything well. I’ll definitely reach out to her again the next time I need to board my dogs.”



“Jackson enjoyed his stay! Kayla was absolutely great with sending us pictures and messages throughout his stay to keep us updated. Jackson is looking forward to his next visit!”


“Joyce was an absolute pleasure to work with. My vacation was last minute, so I was extremely grateful to find the Rover app and website, but finding Joyce was even more of a godsend. I could tell right off that she loves dogs, has a passion for dog sitting, and strives to make both animals and their owners as happy as possible. She provided periodic updates, images as well as a video, and set my mind at ease. Thank you very much Joyce, I really appreciate it.”


“We had an excellent experience with Aimee! She was friendly, attentive, and communicative; she sent me loads of photos so I could check in with my dog, Duncan,while I was out of town. For his part, Duncan had so much fun getting to play in Aimee's yard with her very sweet dog, Max. He also got loads of cuddle time every day! I would definitely book Aimee again to sit Duncan the next time I travel.”



“Joy is one of the best sitters that I have ever used. She is a true animal lover and took excellent care of our dachshund. We boarded our dachshund at her home and she stayed in touch with us via texts and photos. We never worried about her care and would highly recommend her!”



“Cheyanne took great care of my 11 year old lab. Sent me pictures and kept me updated while I was away missing my baby. Definitely helped ease my mind and she always returned my messages within an hour. I could tell my dog was happy to be there and she loved playing with the other dogs. 10/10 would recommend Cheyanne”
