“Deanne kept all three of our dogs when we were out of town for four days. She kept us informed how they were doing and sent pictures so we could see them and they had all settled in well with her crew. So glad we found her in Rover!”
“Tanya & her family took such wonderful care of Birdie, who is very shy. Tanya & her family exhibited such patience and love to her as well as the other dogs who were there. It is evident that Tanya takes every dog’s personality into account. They are welcoming and assured me of Birdie’s safety and comfort. I received multiple text and photo updates about Birdie throughout her stay which relieved my worries. I trust Tanya with Birdie and will definitely use her service in the future!”
“Carissa B did a wonderful job taking care of our puppy and older dog. We contacted her near the end of our vacation to see if she would extend our dogs care for a 2bd week and she was very open to doing so which made for a wonderful carefree vacation on our part. Thank you Carissa B!”
“Our babies spent a week with Meranda and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! They were right at home with her and it was obvious that she took great care of them. We will not hesitate to use her again!!”
“Dana is AMAZING!!! Skylar has such a fun time at her house and she made new friends. Dana sent us pictures and updates of our Skylar everyday which I loved to see. I would definitely refer her to everybody around and also will contact her again if we happen to need someone to watch Skylar again. Five stars!!!”
“Mary was the perfect choice for our dog Max and I am so glad I found her! She had a large yard for him to roam around in and she gave him so much love and attention. She also provided us with daily updates which the kids loved! I felt comfortable leaving him with her and was confident he was well taken care of and being spoiled. I will definitely use her the next time we need someone to care for Max!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Caitlyn was awesome with our pointer mix, Drifter! He's high energy and she was able to keep him busy and happy! He had a ton of fun as we could see from the frequent photo updates she sent us :) we will definitely be sending Drifter to her again! Thank you Caitlyn!”

“Brandi was wonderful from drop off to pick up. Lots of updates on our pup while we were gone on a week vacation. He is still a puppy and lots of energy so we were glad he could be with someone in their home while we were away. Definitely would recommend.”
“Ozzie spent 4 days with Chris, Dan and their dogs while I was out of town. I am confident in saying that Ozzie was well cared for while with them. I could tell that they made sure my 14 year old Weimaraner was as comfortable as he could be. They sent me photos and a daily update. I am super picky and have a hard time making plans that don't include Ozzie but would definitely use them again and recommend and trust Chris and Dan to care for your pet. Thanks for making my Ozzie comfortable.”
“If I could give Jacqueline 10 stars I would!!! She took AMAZING care of our Blaikey during her stay with her and her awesome family. She was sweet, attentive, loving, affectionate, and accommodating to our sweet little girl. Her daughter was amazing with Blaikey and so gentle and kind with her. She sent pictures and updates every day and went out of her way to make sure Blaikey was comfortable and felt safe and secure in their home. Their dog Mocha was a wonderful friend to our dog and so sweet to her. They really loved each other 🥰. I will absolutely utilize Jacqueline again to watch our dog and recommend her to everyone!! She is amazing and will treat your dog like family because to her- they are!!!!😁🥰♥️”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. My own pup, Wilfred, is deeply loved and spoiled—just the way every dog should be! I regularly dog sit throughout the year and truly love animals with all my heart. I'm kind, patient, and gentle with every pet I meet. I also pride myself on keeping a clean, safe environment and staying active to ensure your dog gets the play, exercise, and attention they deserve. With me, your furry family member will be treated like my own—loved, entertained, and well cared for. While I now work during the day, I’m still fully committed to providing attentive and loving care for your pet. I’m available for midday check-ins during lunch and am free after 4:30 PM to spend the entire evening giving them the attention and companionship they deserve. Your pet’s well-being remains a top priority in my home. I provide a calm, loving environment and tailor care to each pet’s routine and needs—whether they stay in my home or I visit theirs. I’m available for midday check-ins and spend evenings giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Your pet will be treated like family every step of the way.
