“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”
“Nathan and Jenna were FANTASTIC with our puppy and I felt such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands while we were away! They have a beautiful back yard set up so that’s it’s a fun and safe place for dogs to play. They were understanding of the needs of my dog and the fact that he doesn’t get crated at home. He was part of the family while he was there😊. I got daily updates, pictures, and videos of my puppy having the best time! I 100%recommend Nathan and Jenna and I have already booked Baxter’s next stay!!!💕”
“Kylie did a fantastic job with our Golden Retriever. She sent us multiple pictures every day, bathed him before we picked him up, and sent him home with a new toy. She is wonderful and kind, and we would definitely use her again!”
“Arya lives in the country with plenty of space. I like that my dog was in the house versus in a barn as she gets cold. My dog loves other dogs so it was great that Arya had 7 other dogs for her to socialize with. She was walked often and I received several videos. I like that he has an enclosed barn where she could run off leash as her breed needs a lot of exercise. I hope in the future she will be able to play with Arya’s dogs off leash in the barn or an enclosed fenced off area.”
“Jan was wonderful! She was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and knowledgeable when it comes to dogs (including rescue dogs). I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog, Juno, with her for the week. I’d highly recommend Jan!”
“Thank you Veronica for the overnight stay for Darby while I was in town for a wedding. You were very welcoming to Darby, and as a pet parent, that made me feel very comfortable that I knew that Darby would be well taken care of. Also, thank you for the pics and video, it was great to see Darby having fun and settling into your home. I’m glad that Darby and your dog Roxie got along so well.”
“Kaycee is a lovely sitter for my easygoing, cage-free Cavalier. Lots of personal attention and just the right amount of human communication. She is clearly experienced handling dogs with a variety of needs and personalities. Will repeat!”
“Hailey and Justin did a wonderful job taking care of my dachshund for the weekend! They sent pictures and updates and I could tell he was having a great time. Would definitely recommend and book them again! Thank you!!”
“Melissa was great! She took good care of Dexter and provided frequent photos and updates. I was gone for a week and didn’t have to worry about Dexter, knowing he was in good hands.”
“Leo came back even happier before he left and Anita made sure my Leo got his meds and fed when he was supposed to. She is very caring and loving towards my dog and her own as well. I did not have to worry about anything while I was away on vacation. Thank you Crystal”
“Sooki had a great experience with Deanna and even made some new friends. Deanna was excellent; welcoming and reassuring--she sent daily updates and photos and answered questions promptly. All in all, a wonderful place for dogs to feel at home. 5-stars! I will definitely book again with Deanna.”
“Madison did a fantastic job! Bucky seemed so happy and she gave us daily updates so we wouldn't worry about how he was doing... including some great pics! Thanks again Madison!”
“Keith, Rebecca and family watched our puppy for 5 days. She had such a great time! They sent me pictures everyday, and this makes me very happy. Thank you very much!”
“This review is the absolute truth. Brittany is that rare individual that REALLY cares for the pet you entrust her with. My dog had never been outside my care. He bonded so well with her as I saw in the pictures she sent me as I was on my trip. I would look to have her take care of my dog anytime!!! Thanks to Brittany and to Rover for employing her. 5 star review!!!!”
“Susan and her husband cared for Barney like he was their own. They are both very responsible, caring and loving dog owners that Barney was more than comfortable with. Their dog, Jonah, was very well behaved and super friendly. Jonah and Barney were best buds within the first couple minutes of meeting each other. They went on a few walks and played a bunch in their fenced in backyard. Barney was tired out and a happy dog when we came to pick him up :) I would highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a trusting and caring dog sitter.”
“We left our somewhat anxious dog with Cornelia and her family for 10 days over Christmas. Our dog LOVED her! Cornelia and Greg took excellent care of her with many daily walks and lots of attention. I received daily pictures on how she was doing. Chimkin came back happy, healthy, and perfectly calm. We will always ask Cornelia for dogsitting in the future, she is by far the best pet sitter we have ever had!!”
About: Ever since I was a baby, I have grown up around all sorts of animals, especially dogs. I am familiar with all sorts of breeds of all different ages and sizes. Now, I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats, which I have raised all from babies. I am huge on communication and making sure everyone feels comfortable, therefore you will be given utmost communication from me. I live in an apartment, so walks are a big thing I do for exercise everyday and multiple times a day, as well as bathroom breaks every couple hours. I am a college student with a very slim schedule, making me available just about whenever, and I am home most days, all day. If running an errand, I either try to take my dog with me for a ride, or make it as fast as possible.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 9 years old, and over the years I’ve looked after the pets of roommates, friends, and family. From energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, I know how to give each pet the love, patience, and attention they need. I have hands-on experience with puppy training, daily walks, playtime, feeding, and medication if needed. Your dog’s happiness and safety are always my top priorities — I treat every furry friend like they’re my own!

My schedule can be flexible which gives me the option to work with the schedule that works best for you and your pets. I care for pets like they’re my own! I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles so they feel comfortable and happy. In your home, I make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise while keeping things just the way they’re used to. In my home, I provide a safe, cozy space with lots of love and supervision.
“Jenna did a wonderful job watching our two pups for a long weekend. Her communication skills are top notch & kept us updated the whole weekend. She has a great yard for the dogs to run around in & was very accommodating to their needs. Her pup Nova is just as welcoming to new friends :) I would have zero hesitation using her to watch our dogs again!”
