“Jill was a great host for Gracie while we were gone. She made sure Gracie got her daily medicine and we got pictures and updates throughout her stay. She was very responsive and even had us come over for a preview of her house before the official stay began to get some info and make sure everything went smoothly.”


“Amber was amazing! Super flexible with pick up and drop off. I had a super busy weekend and was not thinking about our dog at all but Amber made sure to send pictures and updates about our dog every few hours so that I knew that she was okay. Izzy came back so happy and in such a good mood. Will definitely use Amber again!”

“Alexis did an amazing job watching my doggo for me over the weekend while I was out of town! She sent multiple updates daily which included pictures of my dog having a great time:) I never had any doubts as to his safety and wellbeing. If you need your dog boarded I cannot recommend Alexis enough!”

“Roger was great at communicating the whole time while caring for Mooney. We got several pics throughout his stay. Mooney looked quite content and comfortable. I did not worry once about him because I knew he was in good hands. Roger was also very accommodating to last minute changes due to unexpected delays in our travel. I would highly recommend for your pets and I would definitely use him again for my Mooney.”


“Ashlee was phenomenal as a pet sitter for Nash! 10/10 experience for me and my dog. She is so kind, engaging, thoughtful, and kept Nash active and loved. Will definitely work with Ashlee again! Nash loves her!”

“Bryanne and her family were fantastic. Bryanne is a knowledgeable handler and integrated our dogs with her own quickly and peacefully. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Bryanne again.”

“Sydni is hands down, one of the best sitters I’ve ever had for Theo! He always has such a good Time with her and her children, and they treat Theo the same way I treat him at home. She is my go to person when I need to board Theo or when I want him to be socialized with other people and dogs. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”

“Amy was absolutely fantastic taking Lucy such last minute for us! She even picked her up and dropped her off, as well as kept us updated with pictures and videos. Our dog was sure tired when coming home because she had such a great time playing nonstop. Definitely will use her again!!”

“My two fur babies loved staying with Susan and her friendly handsome dog, Norman. This was the first time we had Susan watch them and it was for 10 days. Susan sent pictures every day and I swear the pups were smiling in every picture. There were even pictures of my pups sleeping and cozied up to her dog. I will definitely be using her again as I feel confident they are getting great care and more importantly a lot of love...”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have experience with a wide range of animals—from energetic puppies and senior dogs to cats and even bottle-fed kittens that need extra patience and attention. My background also includes caring for farm animals such as calves and horses, along with birds, pigeons, and reptiles. Whether it’s feeding schedules, special care needs, or simply making sure animals feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, I take pride in providing dependable and attentive care. From tiny paws to big hooves, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m available for overnight pet sitting and weekend care, as well as morning and evening visits during the week. I provide dependable, attentive care to keep your pets comfortable while you’re away.” I provide loving, dependable care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. I respect your routines and guidelines and make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away.”
“We had the most pleasant experience! This was our first time ever using Rover, and they made it such a positive one. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that our dogs were receiving lots of love and attention! We honestly felt like they were being spoiled the entire time! They truly went above and beyond for our pups and treated them as if they were their own. Their care, communication, and kindness made all the difference, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend them and would absolutely trust them with our dogs again. ❤️🐾”

“Colin was amazing with my puppy. Even though my reservation for the stay was a little last minute they were very open to taking care of my pup while going out of town. Drop off and pick up was super easy and he definitely came back tired and slept the rest of the night! Will 100% be going back in the future!!”

“This family is the best. Hannah and Will were so accommodating and kind and attentive to not only our dog but to us as well. This was the first time we used Rover in about 3 years so I was pretty particular. Hannah and her family were a perfect fit for our 4 yr old pup. They have two other dogs who were so playful and welcomed mine rt into their pack. They also have two young daughters who knew exactly how to safely approach our dog for the first time and all times after that. They were excellent listeners to their parents and were thoroughly excited to welcome our dog into their home. And within a few hours …maybe minutes…our dog was snuggling rt up to them. Hannah was an excellent communicator and sent many photo updates! They even taught him to “stay” out of kitchen while they ate, as do their other 2 dogs. We have already booked her for July. Thank u Hannah and Will.”


About: I have been watching friends and family animals for as long as I can remember. I love being able to give comfort to the animals when their parents are not able to. I do work full-time, but I’ve always been able to help out with my friends pets at least three times a day if not more when needed. I am not able to do in-home care at the client’s house-or overnight stays at my house at this time as I have an animal in my own.
“Rob and Heidi were great. Wanted to care for our dog like it was their own. Frequent updates and great communication. Could tell when I picked him up he had a great time and really bonded with them.”
