“I was so lucky to find Stella! Boarding the girls in a loving home was exactly what I wanted. Having a fenced yard was a great vacation for them. The updates and photos were great. Highly recommend!”
“Ruby has stayed with Dickson a few times now and she is always thrilled to go back! She gets a lot of play time outside and on walks, and lots of cuddles when it's time to wind down. Dickson is very caring and attentive and handles her high energy like a pro. I have complete peace of mind knowing she's in terrific hands!”
“JoAnne is amazing, great!! She is super nice and took care of my beagle as if she was hers. She has taken care of Keyla twice already. I highly recommend her and for sure would leave my dear Keyla again with her. She is the best.”
“Awesome. That's the review. But in all seriousness, easy communication, easy logistics. This warm and friendly couple took care of my dog, and she (the dog) was very happy upon my return. No issues. They do one dog at a time, and have a fenced in yard.”
About: Bella’s Journey Pet care was born from my 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog from puppyhood to her senior years. This lifelong journey taught me the joys and challenges of nurturing a pet through every stage of life—from playful puppy antics to managing the unique needs of an aging pet, including mobility support, medication, and gentle care. My deep understanding of pet behavior and health means I provide patient, compassionate, and personalized care for your beloved dog. I’m dedicated to treating your pets like family, supporting their happiness and well-being. Bella has crossed the rainbow bridge, but her Mom has plenty of love to share! We were also very blessed to own and care for three horses over a period of 15 years. Much larger scale than your beloved family remember. But an added layer of comfort knowing we are equipped for small and larger responsibilities! My background in holistic approaches to pet care will also offer you and your pet ease of mind. My schedule is flexible to match that or my clients needs. In your home. Or mine if I do not have an in home overnight on the schedule. Reliable, caring in-home pet sitter providing attentive, stress-free care, feeding, walks, medication, and companionship, ensuring your pets stay comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away.
About: I am the definition of an animal lover, which I attribute to having had animals around my entire life. I grew up with Australian shepherds, German shepherds, cats, hamsters, and even tarantulas! I am extremely comfortable walking dogs, giving them medication via food, and managing when to let them out to go to the bathroom. I’m also willing to give a big furry dog a good brush if they need it! I have lived primarily with big dogs, but have had close relationships with small dogs through friends and my husband’s family whom I have dog sat for in the past. In addition, I am a massive cat lover. I was given a kitten when I was 8 years old and had her for 19 years until she just recently passed. In her senior years, she had both hypothyroidism and asthma so I am well-versed in giving cats inhalers and medication in various forms (via dropper, ear application, in treats, and in food). I am a dependable dog and cat sitter/caretaker because I know how much your animal means to you. I’m an extremely organized person so you can count on me to be reliable with pick-up, drop-off, and everything in between. Taking care of your animal would not be a job to me because I am so happy to do it! I work all day Tuesday and Thursday and the occasional Monday, Wednesday or Friday depending on when I am scheduled (only 4 hours shifts on those days) so I could watch an animal full time during three weekdays in addition to weekends. I am still more than willing to watch an animal for an entire week and either modify my work schedule to be with them more, or just make sure they are set up for the days I am in office. I have a non-smoking home with one cat and two people including myself. My home would be an extremely relaxing environment for a pet and due to my flexible schedule, I can dedicate nearly full-time care to an animal. Since I have a cat, I would only really be able to have dogs stay overnight for a couple-day stint since I'd prefer to keep them separate. In my client's home I would offer the same care in addition to respecting the environment. I'm naturally a very clean person and always pick up after myself.
“Tommy and Julie were amazing! This was our first time using Rover and our first time ever leaving our dogs with people we barely even knew. They quickly put our worries at ease and sent constant updates on our pups during our week long vacation. Highly recommend!”
“Byron and Martha were great hosts and took great care of our Yorkie boys! They sent daily pictures and messages to let us know how the boys were doing, so we didn't have to worry during our trip. I highly recommend them, and I'll be bringing the boys back whenever my wife and I travel again.”
“Elisa seems to be a devoted person who takes care of dogs with love. Thank you so much for taking care of the dog carefully so that he doesn't feel any separation anxiety for 2 nights and 3 days away from our family. Thanks again!!”
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”
“She was amazing and so easygoing considering it was last minute and over the holiday weekend. She treated Bowie like one of her own and we will definitely consider her again!!!”
“Jayne was amazing - definitely the best caretaker I have worked with thus far. Gumbo absolutely loved her and it showed through in all the pictures she sent me (major plus as it makes me feel more secure with being away). Jayne really went above and beyond - taking notes when I was going over his daily routine and even helping me carry back all his supplies at the end of the day. We will definitely be using her going forward and would highly recommend her to other users in the midtown east area. Thanks for everything Jayne!!”
“Monica is awesome with our Sky. She genuinely loves dogs and takes really special care to give ours the attention that she needs. The communication is great and she has been very flexible with our erratic schedules. We’re very happy to have met her and we feel very comforted knowing our Sky is in her good hands”
“Francine is very professional, a true dog lover and immensely kind with every one and every special needs. I had my little one taken care for 4th July weekend in a very short notice Francine was very eased very much our meet and greet appointment at her place. I received plenty of photos and I was relaxed and very happy during my dog’s stay. I would definitely book her again!”
“Once again, Derek and his family were an incredible Rover family for Bear. They had him for 10 days, which is a long time, but I got pictures from Derek almost every day and he let me know that Bear was doing great. It made our long vacation even better knowing that he was being well cared for. I can’t thank Derek and his family enough for being Bear’s home away from home.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lakemoor
Melody did an absolutely amazing job of making Mischa comfortable. There were fireworks outside and she built Mischa a blanket fort to calm her down; that is what we do at home, but we forgot to forewarn Melody...Mischa runs to blankies to hide when there's thunder or fireworks. Melody's just one of those people who stays attuned to how dogs are feeling and responds...would highly recommend her!
Svitlana and Vasyl are a great couple and did a great job of taking care of my spoiled Halo. The pictures they sent and the several long walks logged by her collar assured me she was loved and well taken care of. Along with her giant smile when I picked her up. I know Halo will miss you and we hope to have Halo visit again in the future!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lakemoor home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lakemoor.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
