“Truc watched our Russell terrier Ozzie for the day when we were in the area on vacation. Ozzie left happy and tired, and had a great time with her lab Calvin. Truc was very responsive and easy to communicate with, took special care to ensure Ozzie adjusted well, and even took him on a special adventure in town. Would highly recommend. Thank you Truc!”

“We reached out to Mary Jo on short notice when our plans for the day changed and she was a lifesaver. Before booking the stay Mary Jo was great with prompt responses and made us feel like even though we were making last minute plans that our dog Stevie would be thoughtfully cared for. Mary Jo accommodated our schedule well for drop off and pickup, even having Stevie ready for pickup so we could get back on the road quickly. Mary Jo welcomed us into her home and let us see that Stevie was getting settled in well. We could tell right away that her son is a true dog lover and we enjoyed watching him get to know Stevie. When we came to pick Stevie up she was so happy and tired that she could barely keep her eyes open in the car. We could tell she had a great day with Mary Jo and her family!”

“Tim was great! Sent pics and videos throughout the day. My dog and his played all day long and she was pooped when I picked her up!”

About: I'm a lifelong dog owner that frequently pet sits for friends and family. I'd love to welcome your dog(s) into my home and give you the piece of mind needed to enjoy your trips, vacations or any other assistance you need while knowing your dog is in great hands and being treated like family! I provide frequent pictures & updates. Your pet's safety and well-being is my top priority and they will get tons of love and attention in my home. With four dog lovers in the house there is always a lap to cuddle in or someone to play with! A meet and greet before accepting your dog into my home is required to make sure all the pups will get along well - I have a Frenchie that is a couch potato and lovebug and also a Boston Terrier who is more high-energy and always wants to play. I work remotely so I am home all day with my dogs. I will take your dog out as often as needed, provide daily walks and ample attention and play time. I provide overnight care or daytime boarding in my home where they can play with my friendly dogs, or drop-in service during the day and evenings in your home. Your pet will always be closely supervised, provided with walks, outdoor potty breaks and inside play with my family and dogs. I have two children aged 10 & 12 and two medium sized dogs that love playtime (and naptime)! Feeding time is supervised and separate from my own dogs and if I need to leave home for any reason and the dogs will be left alone they will be left separately from my dogs and for short periods only. If you would like me to do drop ins I can provide that service as well. Happy to accommodate any needs or instructions! Before boarding your dog I will meet with you and your pet for around 20-30 minutes in my home and can also meet with you prior to providing drop-in or dog walking services as well.

About: I can provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching experience for your fur baby. I’ve had labs, a Rottweiler, and a poodle. Comfortable giving meds too and caring for older dogs. I prefer dogs to be bathed prior to boarding. My job allows me flexibility because I work from home. It will be easy to sit, feed, and walk your dog and be a companion. I prefer dogs to be bathed prior to boarding. I can easily crate your dog if needed and take he/she for walks such as down to the park or the beach or town center.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats from my neighbors and friends since I was 15. I am good at making sure the dogs are all good. I work at a hotel, however I looking for more work because the season is getting slow from now til mid march. I am very organized, I love animals and I have excellent time management skills. I can’t have dogs in my home because I live an apartment that does not allow dogs unfortunately but I am happy to watch the dog at your place or Bring the dog to a park if needed.

About: My husband and I recently returned from Costa Rica where we volunteered on a dog farm assisting with bathing, grooming and giving lots of love to almost 2,000 rescued dogs that live there. My husband also has a separate rover account under Maxi S. During my high school/college years my mother trained 5 different dogs for guiding eyes for the blind which I helped in the training process as well while home. I also started housesitting and caring for pets of local neighbors at the young age of 10. We have always had dogs in my home. I couldn’t imagine living without a dog. I have experience with dogs of all ages, puppies to senior dogs. I myself have a 9 year old cocker spaniel who thinks she is a human. I understand all pet owners and their pets have different needs and will respect any rules required to give your pet the care they need. I will treat your dog like my own. My family just returned from Costa Rica. My husband and I are both looking for flexible part time work which allow us to still care for our 1.5 year old son. You can also find my husbands separate rover account under maxi S. At the moment our schedule is open and flexible but as we find work our schedules will be changing depending. We have a good sized yard which is not fenced in but in a quiet neighborhood with a cul-de-sac. I don’t usually crate my dog, but if your dogs are crated I am familiar with crate training. I am a flexible person and am able to modify based on your pets needs.

About: Hi there! I’m Nicole, and I’m so excited to welcome your dog into a safe, loving, and active environment. As a proud rescue dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pup like their own. I work from home full-time and have a very flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and love throughout the day. Whether your pup prefers long walks, runs to burn off energy, or just a cozy nap by my side, I’m here to meet their needs. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s preferences when it comes to being around other pets—my own rescue is friendly and well-socialized, but I can also keep them separated for comfort and safety if needed. What I Offer: ✅ Walks, runs, and active play ✅ Home all day—never left alone ✅ Flexible with special instructions or routines ✅ Comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels ✅ Safe, calm environment with the option to interact with my friendly rescue—or have their own space I truly love dogs and would treat yours like family.

Pet care is naturally woven into my everyday routine. I’m home full-time, so I’m able to give pets my full attention throughout the day—from morning walks to mid-day potty breaks, playtime, and evening snuggles. I love staying active, so I’m always up for a walk or run, and I enjoy making sure dogs get the exercise and interaction they need. My own rescue dog has taught me how important consistency and care are, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to fit each dog’s unique needs and routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean environment where dogs can feel at ease, with plenty of space to relax, play, and get love and attention. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you provide—feeding schedules, medications, crate training, etc.—and I always keep dogs supervised and secure. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and make sure your pet feels safe and stress-free in their familiar space. I’ll stick to your routines, send updates and photos, and make sure they get the exercise, affection, and care they deserve. Every dog is different, and I always do my best to meet them where they are—whether that means long walks or extra snuggles on the couch.

“Very happy and relieved! I had to book last-minute for my pup when a neighbor had to cancel, and Adriana & Christopher were able to take Lucy at their house for the day. I worry about her because Lucy is a bit of an anxious mess when somewhere new (especially when I’m not around), and she was shaking like a leaf when I left. I felt terrible! But she was very interactive and played with their dog so much that she passed out and slept for hours when we got home! So, so happy and delighted with this experience for my little Lucy!”

“Princes Leia had a great stay at Maxi's. We got pictures of her playing and she was super tired when we picked her up.”

“Mary-Ellen took care of our blind Shih Tzu, "Peanut" for the day in her home this past weekend and was just AMAZING with her! She was so interested to find out all the little details ahead of time to ensure that they had a fun and comfortable day. Because of Peanut's special needs, my boyfriend and I are very nervous about leaving her with sitters, but after meeting Mary-Ellen, we felt sure that she would be in the best of hands. Mary-Ellen sent updates throughout the day along with several photos so I could see what fun they were having. Mary Ellen's home is adorable and sparkling clean, and as an added bonus, her daughter and Peanut really hit it off and had a wonderful time together. We would highly recommend Mary Ellen to others and will definitely book her again in the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals on a farm and riding horses since I could walk. I’ve went to animal and plant science classes and AG mechanics and I’ve walked dogs in my neighborhood since I was 8. I’m comfortable feeding and walking neurological disordered animals since fosters and customers gave me experience and knowledge in. I love reptiles and have much knowledge in caring after fish and I love connecting to these charming and amazing animals. I have a seasonal job, and I love working with animals and caring for fosters when needed so I’m happy to work with your schedule ! I give my pets the best unprocessed food and I follow instructions for the feeding and understand my pets necessities. I love going for hikes and walks or playing with the pups. I would do overnight stays to keep them company and look after the house.

“Tara and her husband watched my pug for a few hours while we hosted an engagement party at our house. They were sooo kind and kept me updated with cute photos the whole time. Their dog was so sweet and friendly. I would 100% trust them to watch June again — can’t recommend them enough! 😊”
