“Ozzie received the best care this week, and I’m incredibly grateful. He wasn’t feeling well, but thanks to her patience, attention, and genuine love for animals, he’s now back to his happy self. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I truly appreciate everything and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”

“Buddy had a great time at Trisha’s house. Trisha was amazing and I will definitely be using her again. 10/10 stars”

“Such a sweet family Krysten took my guy at the last minute for the whole afternoon into the evening and clearly he enjoyed himself. She sent a video and a photo just the kind of home you want your best buddy to to be in when he can’t be with you.”

“First time Rover user; very pleased and excited to have new resource! Christina accepted booking for daycare on short notice; willing to meet Chica prior to day booked. Wonderful communications - wonderful provider - obviously a lover of animals! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Christina for the day even though we have never kenneled Chica previously. Chica seemed to have a good day, too! Bonus - Christina is very close to our home as well! We will definitely rebook with Christina when again needed - thank you!”

About: I work remotely so I’m home most of the day☺️ This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day! My husband and I are both dog lovers and have a dog of our own, Carter, a 9 y.o. black lab/blue heeler mix. She’s very friendly, easygoing, and gets along great with other dogs🐶 We don’t have kids, so our home is calm and quiet, and the dogs get lots of attention🥰 They’re welcome on the furniture if that’s what they’re used to at home, and we have a large fenced yard where they can safely run and play. We also live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for regular walks! I’ll treat your pup like part of the family and do my BEST to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here🥰 Feel free to reach out with any questions about availability or how boarding/daycare works, I’m always happy to help!☺️ Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day and able to give dogs lots of attention🥰 Walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my routine I only take up to 2 dogs per day to keep things calm, comfortable, and low-stress for everyone. I treat every dog like family and work from home, so they get plenty of attention and supervision! My home is clean, pet-friendly, with a large fenced yard for safe playtime, and I always follow each dog’s routine to help them feel at ease🙂

“Jamie did a great job with my sister's and my dogs. They clearly were comfortable and her communication was great! Thanks Jamie, highly recommend!”

About: Hi everyone - I was a mom to older English Bulldogs who have recently passed and understand the need for a sitter at times. I used to use a dog sitter myself during the day and understand how hard it can be to get home sometimes! Now that my doggos are no longer with me, I would love to help you out. I work from home so can accept daycare or overnight boarding at my place. I live in a safe neighborhood and have a fenced in backyard for all of the potty breaks and I can also bring them on short walks if requested. I live in a zero-entry, one-level home with no steps which is great for pets with bad joints.

About: Hi! My name is Melissa and I'm so happy to be here! I have 15 years of experience caring for and walking my own dogs, and sitting for friends and family. I know the importance of getting some exercise in for your fur friend, and how challenging it can be to find the time some days! So I am here to help, let me take care of that task for you! I enjoy walking and being outdoors and I'd love to have your pup accompany me! I also own my own home with a fully fenced in backyard, and I work full time from home, so if you need boarding or daycare services, my home would be great for you! I have two pups of my own that absolutely love other dogs, so if you are ok with that, we'd love to care for and keep your pup with us, too! I work from home full time, so it’s easy to attend to my pups (and yours!) during the workday. I can make a lunch hour walk or drop work easily. And afternoons and evenings are pretty open! I have a fully fenced in yard and I am able to let my dogs out as often as they need, and they would be perfect companions for your pups when staying here as well

“Emily and her pups were amazing sitters for our boy Sonoma today! We were nervous about leaving him with someone for the first time but after chatting with Emily and meeting her and her 2 dogs for a few minutes the day before the planned sitting…we were totally confident that he was in good hands. Emily is such a kind hearted person with a genuine love for dogs and it shows in her care for her own. Sonoma immediately warmed up to her and the 3 puppies were able to have a great time together. She was considerate of our routine/habits and sent pictures all day long, which we were so thankful to have! Sonoma didn’t want to leave Emily’s house and even sat in protest on her porch. We would absolutely love/plan to use Emily again and would recommend her to anyone looking for fantastic care in Paradise!”

About: Hi! I’m Stephanie, and I absolutely love pups! 🐾 I grew up with dogs and now have a 4-year-old staffy mix named Cricket and another who is 5 months old named Louie. They are both very friendly, loves other dogs, adore people, and usually becomes best friends with every dog who stays with us! We go to parks daily and love when new furry friends join us. I can keep your pup at my home during the day and accommodate any feeding or health needs. We get out at least twice a day, giving plenty of opportunity for exercise and playtime. Your dog will get lots of attention, socialization, and safe, monitored play. We also enjoy hikes and outdoor adventures! I drive a Subaru Forester, so there’s plenty of room to transport multiple dogs if your pup enjoys exploring. My pups are treat-motivated, and I’m happy to share treats with your dog if that’s something they enjoy—just let me know what works best for them. We’d love to meet your pup and make them feel part of our adventures here in Sioux Falls! I have a pup of my own that I take out hiking, running, or long walks daily. She loves other dogs and we would love to have yours tag along on our adventures or stay at home and play! My pup is free to roam around the house when I'm home or away. She also has a crate that she loves and is able to stay in there if that would make your dog more comfortable! My house is a dog friendly one with a unfenced yard that we are ablet to run and play in. I feed my dog twice a day and she is ok being fed around other dogs, but I am able to separate them during feeding time if that is necessary. My dog is also ok sharing toys so if yours enjoys playing with toys my dog would love to share what she has!

“Took really amazing care of my pup! He seemed so happy!!”

“Josie was exceptional. Her communication was outstanding and her compassion was just as great. She sent multiple updates throughout the day, which really shows how much she cares for others' fur babies. I recieved lots of candid, sweet photos too. I could tell Honey was in good hands and truly enjoyed her time away. Josie paid close attention to routines and details, and was so attentive to Honey while she was in her care. I couldn't have asked for a better last-minute sitter. She not only made me feel secure in my decision but also made Honey feel safe and at home. I'm sure she'll sleep hard tonight after today's adventures. I have nothing but good things to say about Josie and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! 🩷”

“London loves going to Rowan’s and play all day with her pups. He is just so happy when he is there and is thoroughly exhausted when he comes home which is sooo needed!!”

“Tara and her family gave my dog the best care. Poppy was welcomed and I felt good about leaving her in Tara’s care. We are so grateful!”

About: I provide loving, attentive care for dogs in the Sioux Falls area and have years of experience caring for my family’s and relatives’ dogs while they’re on vacation. Your pup will be treated like part of the family in a safe, comfortable home environment. My home features a fully fenced backyard, upper and lower living levels, and one of my favorite (and most dogs’ favorite!) features—a full glass sunroom that overlooks the backyard. It’s the perfect spot for dogs to relax, soak up the sun, and keep an eye out for rabbits and other wildlife. I have a 1.5-year-old chiweenie named Copper who is very active, friendly, and gets along well with all dogs. Before Copper, I had my chug, Kewley, for 16.5 wonderful years, so I’m experienced with dogs of all ages. Copper is crate trained and is crated during short outings like when I attend church. Weather permitting, we go on daily walks, and your dog will be welcome to join us! For long term stays, we may also enjoy visiting small dog parks almost daily to burn off energy and have fun. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so pets get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. Weather permitting we will go on walks and possibly the dog park if all parties are ok with that. I will send daily pics/videos throughout the stay. Some photos may be consider professional portraits :) I live alone with my ChiWeenie Copper as mentioned. My neighborhood is full of dogs and the people are friendly. Overall, it is a quiet neighborhood on a quiet street. Pets can be crated at anytime if owner prefers. I plan on not having more than 3-4 dogs at a time. Small-Medium size dogs only.

About: Get your pup watched and played with letting you have a day not worrying, i’ve been around dogs forever wanting one of my own and loving dogs like no other. I’ll be there and you can trust me with your pet, i’ll run around and play with them all day long till there tired I love helping and i want to be someone you can rely on, im opening my schedule and able to check in and watch your pet and go check in between 8am to 4:30 every weekday i’d love to keep your baby comfortable and help you out with no worries in your own home, playing with and following everything you normally do.

“Paige was great with communication. She kept up with frequent updates and pictures while caring for our dog, any and all questions we had were answered in a timely manner. I would trust her in the future to dog sit for us anytime.”

About: I have been a dog owner and lover for most of my life. I currently do not have a dog in the home, so I can focus full-time on your furry family members. I have a lot of experience with pit blends, as well as small dogs. I work freelance from home, and currently have plenty of time to spend giving scritches and going out to play. I am also a runner, and would love to take any dogs with me who love to run. We have a fenced in yard, and a dog room in our basement for naps. We also have a couch in the main living area that's just for dogs, but they are also welcome to sit on our couch or in our recliner chair. We live very close to the bike trail and several parks, and walking distance to the downtown dog park. I also have a dog-safe car for trips to Spencer or Family Dog Park or special trips to The Splash Bark.
