“Delilah had a wonderful time with Kirsten and Mark and their 4-legged kiddos! The pictures were great showing how well she was fitting in. Kirsten and Mark went the extra mile to make sure Delilah was safe and happy in their home. We are all set to book again this summer! Five stars and six paws satisfaction rating!”
“Trust all the good reviews! It's funny to worry about dropping off my dog with someone who has so much more experience than I do, but I can't help it. Bob is clearly a professional and handled my young, energetic German Shepherd/Pit mix with ease. We'll definitely be back.”
“Jason was the perfect choice! Affordable, sweet, and fantastic with my Tunni! He was the only sitter who accepted my last minute Easter weekend booking and was so flexible when I requested pickup/drop-off changes. He's very personable and professional, and Tunni took to him and his pups (especially sweet Sunny) right away! It was a great play date for her and I'll absolutely hire him again in the future! He's worth the 45 minute drive! Thanks so much, Jason! :)”
“Brittany was very responsive from the beginning. She took great care of Maple, sent some pictures while we were gone and gave Maple lots of attention so we could spend the day in Cooperstown with our kids. Thanks Brittany!”
“This lady and her husband are the best kept secret of Rover! My dog has typically refused to eat for the first day or two of boarding, but with Sue, she ate the first night, her tail was high and wagging! She was a happy little camper. I would recommend Sue, without any reservations. She truly cares for her boarded dogs- they do know who loves them. She will always be our first choice!!”
About: Never have I been without a pet. Life is nothing without the love and companionship of a pet. I am a lover of all animals, but dogs hold my heart. I do work full time at a veterinary office as a care coordinator. I am looking to offer weekend care, and may, possibly expand hours/days in the future. I live on a 1.5 acre. I have a small, fenced in yard 10 x 30. Am able to leash walk on the property, and live on a back road which is perfect for leash walking.
“Jenny is super easy to communicate with and flexible! She’s very friendly and I felt my dog was very safe with her. We actually needed to cancel our booking so Daisy only spent a few hours with her but she had already sent us a photo! I will definitely be booking with Jenny in the future.”
“Whitney and Kevin were wonderful! They were great communicators and sent multiple picture updates throughout my dogs stay with them. It was clear that they took great care of him and he looked so happy in all of the photos they sent. I will absolutely use them again in the future!”
“Nicole was a lifesaver! After getting over booked at a kennel during Cooperstown Baseball season, she came to my rescue. Great communication, flexible, easy to work with, updated me with pictures and she even trimmed my puppy nails. Highly recommend her.”
About: My name is Heidi and I have loved working with animals my entire life! I went to school for veterinary science but, unfortunately, I dont have the stomach for it. I grew up with rotties, a Shepard and I currently have a Yorkshire terrier so I'm comfortable with pups of all ages and sizes. I also have always had cats so I'm more than comfortable with them as well. Building up trust and relationship with the animals I work with is one of the best feelings in the world. I do work Monday through Friday but have flexible hours and can always make time to stop in at least 3 times a day. I'm more than willing to come to a meet up before the sit date to make sure all connections are good! I do work Monday through Friday until 4pm, but I work from home and can work anywhere with internet access if you're comfortable with me working during a stay! Please tell me any guidless, rules or typical schedules for your pet so I can keep things as comfortable as possible for them. Routines are respected as much as possible.

“I am so sorry this is so delayed! I had a lot of life catch up after our vacaction, which was completely relaxing becasue I had zero concerns with the well being of my dog because Melissa was AMAZING. She was super welcoming and understanding that it was our first time leaving our pup and using Rover! She is super professional and caring and took care of everything (she had a crate for us!) She has love for dogs and I would absolutely recommend her and have our pup stay again! The best.”
“Steve was able to dog sit my puggle Chomps on such short notice. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family and I was hesitant in using a dog sitting service. Upon meeting Steve I felt comfortable in leaving Chomps with him. Steve sent me pictures of Chomps during his stay. He was also extremely accomodating, as we were returning from our trip a little later than anticipated. When we arrived to pick him up, Chomps did not even want to get into the car to leave. Chomps and I both give Steve two paws up!! I would highly recommend Steve and would absolutely request his services again in the future. ??”
“Kylie was an amazing dog sitter for my dog Hershey. She was punctual at pick up and drop off and gave me updates about my dog’s stay with her. She was very accommodating and took great care of my dog during my time away. Would highly recommend her.”
