About: My doggie Nala has shown me unconditional love for the past 11 years, and we always welcome new friends! I was a Rover sitter while living in the city and just rejoined. I take pride in showing all animals love through attention, affection, and care. I believe that everything from food to sunlight can affect an animal’s day, and it makes my heart smile to make their days worthwhile. I can come to you, or you can drop off your pet to me, either works! I love and will honor lists, instructions, and care guides. I know what it feels like to leave a pet in the care of others, and thank you for considering me to do so. I know it’s nervewrecking, and I promise to provide the love that your best fur friend deserves. Warmly, Telicia I am home most of the day and have a medium sized dog. This allows me to be super present and engaged with your pup. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space to play inside as well as outside. Water bowls are always full so that everyone stays hydrated.
“Pamela is amazing! She is just exactly the person who I would trust my babies with. She kept me updated all day how my babies are doing, and was very respectful with my the things I requested. She is not just this amazing animal lover, but genuinely a great person, like a person I would like to hangout out with! Honestly, she felt like a close family friend, and not a stranger! She stole and our babies’ hearts, and we will be coming to her for next time for ?!”
“Thomas & Lauren are reliable and trustworthy and we know our dog is in great care and in the best hands.”

About: I've always had a dog throughout my life. My family is full of dog lovers! A dog is what makes a home feel like a home 🐾 I am a stay at home mom which means I am home majority (if not all) of the day. I have the availability, time and heart to fit your dog right into my day. I have a fully fenced in yard to run and play. I have kids who adore dogs, who listen and are respectful of their space. Our home is fun and relaxing- plenty of time for both. Our door is always open.
“This August we sought a warm and private alternative to the larger dog camps because our dog sitter (my daughter) was returning to college. Eliana and her entire family were warm & welcome. They allowed us to stop by for a meet & greet and even taught my dog (12 yr old) how to use a doggie door. Guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. Eliana is amazing! She sent us pictures throughout the day during every visit & told me about the emotional state of my dog (sad because she misses my daughter). That meant the world to me. God bless Eliana & family. Best decision I made all summer!”
“Edward took great care of our pup. He was very kind and she was able to be active and exercise. He was attentive and communicative with me throughout the day! I would recommend him to others!”
About: Hi! My name is Kristina and I have loved dogs since I’ve had one since I was 13 years old. I adopted Nala (who was the love of my life) in 2016 but recently crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2024 🌈She was full of love and I would like to think she was like that because of the environment I created for her! My husband and I adopted Gary in 2020. We love taking them for walks, car rides, going to the park and snuggling! I’ve dogsitted for years before (house sitting and walking dogs when needed). I would consider having your pup over if it’s over 50 pounds and gets along with big dogs and small children. I’m not afraid of any dog, dog size or any dog type— I’m a lover of all dogs! I am taking a year off from teaching because I have a baby and a toddler, so my hours are pretty open. I could take care of multiple pets throughout the day. Also, I have off holidays and I am definitely willing to say over to take care of the fur babies when I can. I am open to hosting your pup (if over 50 pounds) in our home. We have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog that we can arrange a meet and greet with the pups beforehand.
