“KJ was great with our dogs right from the very beginning. You can tell she’s a natural animal lover, and I felt so comfortable having her care for our babies.

About: I have 4 of my own dogs at home, I love hanging out with them and taking care of them but I do know that life gets busy and when your away you need someone to come and watch them for you! I get up in the morning and right away I take my dogs out and feed them and I take them out through out the day and feed them at night! I am able to feed them and watch them, my favorite thing to do is play with dogs! I also love giving them baths, and I love going on walks and it makes it so much more fun when you bring a dog along!

About: I have taken care of chihuahua’s to Pitbulls and have had dogs since I was a child. I have boarded dogs and regularly do house visits to let dogs out to potty during the work week. I am experienced in understanding dog behavior and communication patterns. I work from home 5 days a week and care for my own 2 dogs that get to spend time outside in our backyard every few hours. I have a large fenced backyard and have experience with animal care. The dogs will spend a majority of their time indoors, but frequently have supervised outside play time in the backyard (weather permitting). Dog walks can also be provided at no addition cost. At night, I have a large kennel inside they can sleep in with blankets. Daily pictures and status updates can be sent as well if desired. Pets toys are welcome if you would like to bring your own. To ensure a low stress transition owners are welcome to set up a meet and greet prior to booking. All dogs will be introduced one at a time with any other animals and be able to take a private house tour.

About: I've grown up in a dog friendly home, so I know what it's like to not only to love but also to care for a dog. Whether it's walking, playing, washing- all of it is great! Monday through Fridays are the days that I board dogs! I ask that you schedule 1 week before the day you want to board and cancel 24 hours in advance if you wish to do so. I also do drop in's on Saturdays. I have a fenced yard where your pet can run to their heart's content. I don't have any other dogs in my home at the moment, so all my attention can go to your fur baby!

About: I have grown up being my families pet care provider! I am punctual, reliable, and most importantly, a pet lover of all, no matter how big or small. I treat everyone else’s pets as I would my own. I provide plenty of love, snuggles, compassion, and treats for your fur babies! I currently have a 5 month old GSD puppy and a 2 year old boston terrier, and they have helped gain a ton of knowledge that I believe will help greatly toward the care of your pets! I also have past work experience at a pet motel. I worked there for about 6 months while I was in school to complete my animal science degree, and I really enjoyed it. My tasks included feeding, administering medication, taking dogs for walks, cleaning up after them, and playing with them. This experience helped me tremendously. By bonding with several different dog breeds I have never been able to experience with, it showed me every single breed is special in their own way! I am currently working a part-time job as a residential and commercial cleaner. I am still trying to fill my schedule, so I will have a lot of days I don’t clean and will be able to come and take care of your pets when you need it! I care for pets in your own home because I feel it is more beneficial for your pet to not have to travel and be in a new environment they are not used to. That can cause a lot of stress and would not make a great experience for them. I want your pet to be comfortable and happy in their own home! In your home, I will take them for walks, clean up any messes made, give plenty of love and cuddles, and leave assuring your pets are happy and healthy!

About: I have taken care of alot of dogs for my mom and other family members, including my 16 year old maltese named sparky since I was 8. I am currently working part time but weekdays and afternoons would be nice! My schedule is posted weekly so I'll update you guys on my availability! I can house sit and crate your dogs if necessary! I give lots of snuggles and playtime! I will bring toys and blankets if needed!

About: I use to run a ranch full of all sorts of animals, and was basically the vet there as well as a horse trainer. I currently have 4 dogs and a cat . I love to see new animal friends and visit with them and see how happy they get when going for a walk or just throwing the ball. I'm athletic and go for mountain bike rides with my dogs and go on hikes as well, also am strong enough for those pups that like to pull. My favorite part of the day is being around my pets and family. I am a stay at home mom who homeschools my child so it can be great to go for walks with pets and get outside. I will care for the pets by loving them and listening to the owners requests . My pets get treats sometimes and outdoor play everyday as well as walks ,weather permitting of course.when it's cold outside we tend to just snuggle up on the couch next to a fire.

About: I've been a veterinary technician for 9 years. Emergency and critical care are my specialty, but I've recently reduced my clinic hours and moved to routine surgery and preventative medicine. As our business grows, I will continue to reduce my clinic hours! We care for your kiddos with the same expectations we would have for our own. With almost 2 acres fenced, we are able to have lots of exercise. We do have a section that is all 6 foot privacy fencing, so please let us know if your pet is a jumper so we can be sure to use that instead of our 4.5 foot fenced area. Both sections are ample space for a good game of fetch or tag. We do utilize kennels when we have to be away, and for bedtime. Our kennels are 5x5 indoor runs, perfect for large dogs or families with multiple dogs! I am Fear Free certified. In a clinic setting, this is used with a combination of high value reward, touch gradient & sometimes paired with anxiety medications. For boarding, we provide quiet places for pets to decompress, comfort items from home, and calming music to soothe. Our dogs are vaccinated against rabies, DAPP, leptospirosis & bordatella. They are kept on monthly preventative year round to keep fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites away. Boarders are required to have a rabies vaccine - DAPP, leptospirosis & bordatella are recommended. We sanitize daily with Rescue, it is a high strength, pet friendly cleaner. We do board for multiple families. We take into consideration friendliness of each pet and take all necessary precautions to keep everyone safe. Playtime with our own dogs is at my discretion. I never expect all dogs to automatically be friends, though each of our dogs is very friendly. It is ideal for pets' to stay on their own food to prevent upset stomachs, but we can provide meals for an additional $6/day. Please let us know of any allergies. Pick up & drop off times MUST be scheduled in a 30 minute time block, and that time needs to be respected. Please understand that while we absolutely love having your pets, we are also raising our family from the same home. Any changes to your pick up/drop off need to be made with 24 hour notice, and we will do our best to accommodate. My clinic hours are part-time. I have surgeries to monitor Wednesdays and Thursdays and am often slower to respond during those hours. When I'm in clinic, my patients are my priority. Before and after work hours, I am at home caring for and loving on our dogs! We have the option for both kennels or runs. Our runs are 5x5 INDOOR - so a great option for owners with multiple dogs that would rather sleep together! Keep in mind, we only use kennels/runs for overnight sleeping, otherwise, we spend lots of time playing outside, lounging on the couch, going for walks! Our yard is 6 foot privacy fenced, and our personal dogs are very accustomed to new visitors, so if your pet wants a playmate, we've got that covered! We will only ever introduce dogs that match in personality. We know not every dog will be best friends, so we like to spend a little bit of time learning our boarding dogs and then chose our personal dogs to match for playtime! It's also okay if your dog doesn't want to play, we have the ability to rotate and keep separate, while still allowing plenty of time out of a run!

“Allison was quick to respond when we needed a drop in last minute. She was wonderful and trustworthy. This is my first time using rover and it was a great experience!! She even picked up after the puppies mess”

Ashley T.Star Sitter
“Ashley watched my 6 month old while I was out of town over the Christmas holiday. She kept me posted on his progress with pictures, took him on walks, and must have worked some type of magic because he wasn't completely potty trained when I gave her to him, but he was 5 days later when I got back. Great rates. She's also active in rescue and is a vet tech, so her love for animals is there.”
