“Terrie is the best. She is very down to earth and immediately makes you and your dog feel right at home. She clearly is very experienced watching dogs and was able to accommodate mine last minute. She was also very thoughtful in how the dogs made introductions to avoid any over excitement. Her house is perfect for dogs with a nice fenced yard. Could not recommend her enough.”
“My puppy riddle stayed with christine during the day Saturday and had loads of fun with her new dog friends. Came home to a tired puppy which is always a good thing!!”

“Stephanie does amazing with my two dogs, including one being a young puppy! She is very kind and communicates often with many pictures. Definitely recommend Stephanie!”

“I've been booking him the last 2 weeks for 4 days a week plus an emergency day because my dog is super comfortable with him & after a long day I can tell he helps her get her idle energy out while I'm working. Not to mention the regular updates are appreciated, it truly gives me a peace of mind while at work. It's safe to say I'm gonna continue taking her he's a true dog lover like myself.”
“I’ve had bad experiences with dog sitting until I found Elandra! Not only did she cater to my fears, she reassured me on many levels that our Payton would be taken care of. Elandra went above and beyond with Photos of Payton throughout the time she had her with updates any time I asked. Payton was happy to be with Elandra and was excited to go with Elandra every time we brought her. I will for sure be using Elandra every time from here on out. We absolutely loved her!”
“Alamelu and her family are absolutely wonderful! They took excellent care of my dog, Pepper, for the day. She sent me pictures and updates, took him for walks, and made sure that he was comfortable in their home. Pepper came home very happy and tired out :) This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. I truly cannot recommend Alamelu enough! When we are away, I will definitely have Alamelu take care of Pepper.”
“Best experience I’ve had with a dog sitter in a while she went above and beyond in her service my dog has a lot of anxiety and needs, and she exceeded all expectations. I 100% recommend her service book her anytime any day. 😁”
About: I am a retired high school teacher and have loved and had dogs all of my life as well as a variety of other animals. My 16 year old little man passed away May 2019 and this is the first time my house is empty since 2000. I will treat and love your fur babies like they were my own. I have prepared custom meals, walked dogs regularly for good exercise, created and managed medication and feeding schedules, kept up with their vet care, promoted a social life by introducing them to people and other dogs, groomed and bathed them, and provided and shared living space catered to their needs because they were part of my family! Your dog will be safe and comfortable in my care!

I’ve been in the pet-sitting world for 6+ years with overnight stays, in-home sitting, and even kennel boarding experience—so whether your pup’s a party animal or a cuddle bug, I’ve got them covered. At my house, it’s basically a doggy sleepover camp: 🎾 Fetch? Yes. 🐕 Runs and walks? You bet. 🧠 Practicing commands? Absolutely. 💊 Meds? I’ve got that handled too. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, playful training sessions, or peaceful walks, I do it all—and I love every second of it. If your pet needs TLC, exercise, structure, or just a buddy to nap with, I’m your gal. Can’t wait to meet your furry family! I am in the pet care business right now, so I have a very flexible schedule! I have weekends off, and when I am working, I am only away from home for about four hours. I live with my boyfriend who will also have a different schedule than myself, so the house is never left empty for more than two hours! I live in a house, with a dog, who is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! We have a fenced in backyard, so access to the potty all the time!
