“Excellent care ! Chad is very friendly and knowledgeable. He has a big house with a huge backyard. When I arrived for pick up, my dog was sleeping on the couch. Comfortable and safe. Thank you.”
About: I've had dogs and pets in some capacity or another throughout my life and have loved being Sister-2-Legs to each of my four-legged siblings. I have cared for a variety of animals from young to old, mostly cats and dogs, a bird, and a few rabbits. More recently, it's been a mix of senior dogs and puppies. I'm used to balancing puppy training versus the possible complex needs of senior dogs. My own sweet spaniel passed last year, and he lost both his sight and his hearing as he aged, which presented a few challenges but was a very valuable learning experience. I'm comfortable with all ages and stages of life and love spoiling every single furred family member I care for. I adapt my schedule around your pet's needs and routines. Please message me for schedule details. I may be able to offer drop-ins, walks, or daycare either in your home or at my doggy daycare outside of the time slots listed. Daycare: My yard is fully fenced with a grass area for all kinds of running and toy play time. Everyone is welcome to sprawl out on the furniture both indoors and outside. Your dog is given as much attention and love as if they were my own. I look forward to welcoming new furry friends! Housesitting: My preference for my animals has always been to keep them in their home environment where they feel the most safe and secure. I will follow all their daily routines and any other directions provided and treat their space as if it were my own. Depending on your preference, hikes, beach trips, and other special activities can be added to the daily standards of belly rubs, walkies, and cuddles. As I also have a doggy daycare, it would be great if your pets are dog-friendly and able to participate in daycare during our stay!
“Kai and I enjoyed Chawntea so much that we rebooked. As a first time furbaby mom it’s hard to just leave my baby with anyone. I am so glad to have found her.”
“Angela did a great job watching Mika for the day. She sent me regular updates with pictures of Mika and Maple playing together, and Mika came back a tired, happy pup :) would definitely use Angela’s pet sitting services again.”

“Stache had a great time with Golda. He came back to us calm, stress free and happy. That is a sign that he was very comfortable around Golda. We appreciated the frequent updates and photos!”
“MaryCatherine is AMAZING! This was my first time taking my dog a sitter so I was bit nervous, but once Buddy got there I knew he would be in great hands. She shared videos through the day to share how his day was going (which also gave me comfort). I would HIGHLY recommend her.”
“Great experience!! Maisie was excited to go every morning and came home happy and tired. Lots of pictures and video of walks and play sent every day. Rosa is very knowledgeable about dogs and training. I was VERY impressed. AND she was so accommodating with my very early and lengthy surgery work schedule. I will book again and highly recommend her!! 🐾🌟”
“Briana came through for us in a pinch, responding promptly to our daycare request and providing top-notch care for our pup. We felt completely at ease leaving her with Briana, especially knowing that she also had a furry friend in Banks. Briana's regular updates, with videos and pictures, kept us connected and reassured throughout Maple's stay. The extra gesture of taking Maple on a lengthy walk, keeping her occupied with toys and treats, speaks volumes about Briana's dedication and kindness. Maple returned home happy and thoroughly worn out—a thank you Briana!”
“Lily is a wonderful sitter that loves my dog as if she were her own! I would definitely reach out to Lily if I need care for Nyxie again. You will not regret asking her to care for your beloved pup ❤️ Thanks so much Lily!”
“Our dog Lyra has stayed with Natalia for daycare twice now. She is quick to respond, provides lots of updates, and takes great care of our dog. Lyra came home happy and tired both times. She has a backyard for the dogs to play in, and her front yard is also fenced for extra security. I'd recommend Natalia and plan to book with her again!”
About: I care for pets like my own. I go above and beyond and make sure they are clean and happy. I love taking the dogs I care for on long walks and I also enjoy playing with them, and giving them attention through a good 'ole fashioned belly rub. I am happily retired and love animals. My husband and I were pet owners to a beautiful spunky, honey-colored Pomeranian, named Daisy. Sadly she passed away in 2021 after 13 beautiful years together. I haven't replaced her since. I dog/pet sit for my friends' dogs on occasion. Pet sitting helps fill the void of my Daisy and I would like to do it more for those that may need it. My friends and family entrust me with their pets because they know I will care for them as my own. When I dog sit, I give them attention, play with them, and take them on walks. If I'm not taking them for a walk around the neighborhood or the local park, I have a backyard for them to handle their immediate business. I have a fenced backyard, a spacious living room and a large bonus room that is connected to our living room that allows dogs space to roam around. And if requested, I can also administer medications or have your dog sleep in their crate, if needed.
“Megan accepted a drop in visit in advance of two upcoming overnight stays to help acclimate Bailey to being in a new environment. Megan is loving and caring towards Bailey and really made her feel comfortable while in her care. It’s nice to find someone you trust to care for your dog when needed, and Megan is that person for us.”

Korin M.
“Quite simply put, Korin is a dog whisperer. She is patient, loving, kind, & confident with all dogs, young or old. She has a way of tuning in to the dogs to determine their temperament and personality. Korin has had five dogs over the years and I have witnessed her ability to teach them basic commands, have them walk confidently beside her on leash, and play happily in her care. Korin takes very good care of my dog when she comes to watch her, and my dog loves her so much she can't contain her excitement when Korin arrives. I highly recommend Korin as a dog sitter/walker and am confident in her abilities to care for any dog.”

Over 6 pet parents in Highland have booked doggy day care
Highland dog parents share their Rover experiences
Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.
Baxter had a great day with Kim and her human and dog crew. :) She sent pics with fun commentary several times (much appreciated -- especially on the first day!. Baxter was wiped out in the evening after a day of play. Kim is clearly a pro at dog care. She was very engaged in our meet and greet and asked lots of good questions. She's very pleasant to chat with and communicates proactively. Looking forward to Baxter's next stay!
Buffy had the best time here! Zo was very accommodating, she took my last min request and worked with my drop off and pick up time. It’s such a relief knowing my dog was cared for well, as well as had play time with her dog. I got pictures of Buffy’s status and was given updates. Definitely returning!
