“Dana was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout the day, which gave me such peace of mind. My dog looked genuinely happy, relaxed, and right at home in her care. It’s clear she truly loves what she does. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be booking with her again”

About: Hello, Rover world! My name is Gerardo, and I am the proud human to Elle and Tayter Dot. I am here to find fun playmates for my girls by hosting your pets. Since I'm already a dog parent, I'm already doing the dog routine - feeding, walking, playing, etc. Adding your pup to the routine will be pretty natural as a result. Hubs and I work from home, so we are actively spending time with your dog no matter what! We ask that your pet be housebroken. If they have a crate, we can add that to our routine, though our girls have full reign of the house. (It's their house, I just live in it.) Your pet can expect fresh water, a clean home, a yard to run in, and lots of treats. (Maybe also a weird dog voice...sorry not sorry!) For the safety of all involved, we require a meet and greet as it is our best way to vet how your dog will get along with ours. I do my best to walk the girls more than once a day. We are regulars at various trails and greenways, as well as hanging with other friends and their dogs. My spouse and I are attentive to the needs of our girls, and will treat your dog like one of our own. You can expect your dog to be loved on, with lots of fetch in the yard, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats for all. We also both work from home so your dog will have human and canine company through their visit.

“This is our second time using JaXx, and it’s been great! Love the updates and the attention that she gives out little Yadi. We plan on making her part of the family! Highly recommend.”

About: Your dog won't be alone here. There's always someone home during the day, so nobody's sitting in a crate for eight hours waiting on an empty house. We start with a walk in the morning, spend the day however your dog likes to spend it (fenced backyard, couch privileges, a lot of naps), and go out again in the evening. There's a greenway close by that we'll drive to when somebody needs to really stretch their legs. My Great Pyrenees Jira is nine and roughly the size of a loveseat. I've been doing this for ten years. I'm First Aid and CPR certified, I'm comfortable with oral medication and feeding schedules, and I have a lot of patience for senior dogs and nervous ones. If your dog has a routine that keeps them happy, tell me about it and I'll keep it going.I send photo updates on every single stay, because I know the hardest part of leaving your dog is not knowing how they're doing. A few things clients have trusted me with: nursing a pup through a stomach bug that started the morning of drop off, learning a dog's seizure plan before he ever set foot in my house, and replacing a collar a puppy chewed to pieces so her mom didn't come home to bad news. Twenty one families book with me over and over, and I'm a little proud of that one. Free meet and greet before you book, either at my place or a dog park nearby. No pressure at all. My current schedule is pretty free all week for dog boarding, and drop in/walks. If an earlier or later time I can make it work ! I can handle most pets, if they need a harness put on or muzzles for when being walked. Being crated and uncrated for walks and play time. If treats are available in instructions they will get one, I will also have my own treats on hand. Please list any allergies the fur baby may have so I am aware.

About: Just graduated school and looking to support in taking care of your animals! I work from home 3 days a week which allows me to be with your animal for all the time you need. I am patient, communicative, and willing to support in any way needed! I work from home 3 days a week and go into the office 2 days a week but for about an hour at a time. Have the flexibility to navigate your pets schedule rather than my own. I will create a safe space for your dog to play and pay full attention to your animal. Any necessary information given to my by the owner I will make sure to pay extra attention to it.

About: I have raised two Labradors from 6 weeks old until now. So I understand every phase of a dogs life. I know how to train puppies, walk super energetic dogs, and how to be patient. I love and appreciate all dogs. I’m music teacher that only works on a per job basis. I work only 15-20hrs a week doing this so I will have plenty of time for your pup. I walk and feed them early, go to work for a few hours and come back and walk them more. I have a small fenced in back yard with a dog door. Your dog is welcome on all the furniture and all the rooms. I have dog beds, and toys throughout the house. I love giving dog milkbone treats.

“Jared was awesome! Loved that he took time to walk my dog on long walks which Buck lives and that my dog enjoyed his stay! Highly recommend Jared as he was a great communicator and really catered for my dog!”

“Olga was wonderful! Her sweet little girl got along great with my small dogs. She was very attentive and provided regular pupdates. My dogs loved staying with her and we will definitely be using her again very soon!”

I) I am available for house sitting, walks and play time, potty breaks, meal times, baths, and general companionship during the day/night (they get lonely too!).

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old and have experience with a variety of breeds, each with their own unique personalities and care needs. My experience includes Siberian Huskies, Chihuahuas, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Labrador Retrievers, and Boxers. Through years of hands-on care, I've become comfortable with daily feeding routines, walks, playtime, exercise, basic grooming, reinforcing good behavior, and providing companionship. I'm attentive to each dog's individual routine and committed to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while they're in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide attentive, reliable care while following each pet's unique routine and needs. I have a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with a dedicated sunroom where pets can relax and enjoy a comfortable environment. While I do not have a private yard, I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood with access to walking areas and a nearby dog park, allowing for plenty of exercise, fresh air, and outdoor enrichment. I also have an affectionate Ragdoll cat who is comfortable around other animals and enjoys companionship. I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for.

About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: I am a teacher and someone who truly loves animals. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are with me. Because of my work schedule, my availability is mainly on weekends. On weekdays, I can receive and drop off pets after 5 pm. During the day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm), I am at work, so pets would have a calm, quiet space at home during those hours. I always aim to create a warm, responsible, and caring environment where every dog feels at ease and well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule during the weekdays, which allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent care. In the mornings, I can take dogs out for a walk, feeding, and some playtime before starting my day. After work, I dedicate time in the afternoon and evening for walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m also available on weekends, where I have more flexibility to spend extra time with pets, including longer walks, playtime, and companionship. During the summer, I have significantly more availability, which makes it a perfect time for vacation bookings. You can plan your trips in advance knowing your pet will receive dedicated care and attention. I am very responsible with routines, so I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner to make sure their pet feels safe and at home. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own environment. In my home, I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I give them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to make sure they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and make sure to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I understand that staying in their own home can help pets feel more secure, so I focus on keeping their environment consistent while giving them companionship, care, and attention. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I adjust my care to match their personality whether they are energetic and playful or calm and shy. I am also happy to send regular updates and pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands 💛

About: 🐾 A Second Home for Your Best Friend 🐾 Leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, and I want to make that decision a little easier. My goal is to provide the kind of care I would want for my own dogs safe, loving, dependable, and full of attention. Your dog won't just be another booking. I take the time to learn their personality, normal routine, favorite activities, feeding schedule, and all the little things that help them feel comfortable and at home. 🏡 Home-Style Care: For boarding and daycare, your dog gets to enjoy a comfortable home environment rather than feeling like they're staying in a kennel. 🌳 Fully Fenced Private Yard: There's plenty of secure outdoor space for supervised playtime, exercise, sniffing, and potty breaks. 🐶 Personalized Attention: Whether you have an energetic puppy who wants to play or a laid-back dog who would rather relax, I adjust their day around their individual needs. 📸 Regular Photos & Updates: I know how much you miss your dog when you're apart. You'll receive updates and pictures so you can see how they're doing and enjoy your time away with less worry. 🦴 Routine Matters: I'm comfortable following feeding schedules, walking routines, crate routines, potty schedules, basic commands, and other owner instructions. ❤️ Treated Like Family: Most importantly, I want every dog in my care to receive patience, affection, attention, and respect. I offer boarding, doggy daycare, walks, and drop-in visits. Whether your dog is staying for a few hours, spending the night, or simply needs some company while you're away, my goal is for you to pick up a happy dog who's excited to come back. Come as a guest. Leave as family. 🐾 I make pet care a priority and plan my schedule around making sure every dog receives the attention, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and rest they need. I don't believe in simply putting dogs in the yard and leaving them to entertain themselves. For boarding and daycare, dogs have access to my home as well as a fully fenced private yard for supervised potty breaks, fresh air, exercise, and playtime. I do my best to maintain each dog's normal feeding, sleeping, and potty schedule so their stay feels as familiar and comfortable as possible. Whether your dog loves being active or would rather curl up and relax, I'll adjust their day to their personality and routine. I know trusting someone else with your dog is a big decision. I treat every dog in my care with the same patience, attention, and respect I expect for my own pets. My home provides plenty of indoor space along with a fully fenced private yard for supervised outdoor time. I carefully follow feeding instructions, potty schedules, crate routines, walking preferences, and any other care instructions you provide. I also believe communication builds trust. I'll send photos and updates throughout your dog's stay so you don't have to spend your trip wondering how they're doing. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both your pet's routine and your home. I'll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet receives the care, attention, and companionship they're accustomed to. Your dog's safety and comfort will always come before convenience.
