“Thank you, thank you, thank you! Bruce felt so at home. Sarah and her family treated our dog like family. They followed his cues to go outside and cuddled with him. Highly recommend!”


“Becky has been awesome! She’s very communicative, sends us photos of our dogs everyday we’re gone, and I can tell how much she cares about our dogs. She is very thoughtful and tries to be flexible to meet your needs. I couldn’t recommend Becky enough!!!”
“I believe my pups had an awesome time at Kelli’s during the long Thanksgiving weekend. Kelli sent me pictures and kept me updated on their stay which made me feel so comfortable. I didn’t worry much about them because I could tell they were well looked after. Kelli has great price and will definitely use her in the future.”

About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors. I am comfortable enough with all animals that with some instruction I can care for anything. Experience in administering medication, even with cats. Patient with all animal personalities. I am very detail oriented and thorough. Reliable and great with instructions. I love animals and since semi-retiring I thought it would be nice to spend time caring for them when owners are on vacation or just need a little extra help. I practice reward based motivation. Semi-retired with plenty of time to play with and care for your animals. Happy to care for in home or take for walks. I can do multiple drop-ins a day. I am very good with instructions and will abide by any house rules and needs required for your pet. Experience house and pet sitting prior to joining Rover.
“Thank you Sarah! She was great with King and up to the task of dealing with my grumpy old man. She kept me informed and I felt he was in great hands while I was out of town. He eventually started warming up so that’s let me know he felt comfortable.”

“Huge thanks to Josie for taking such amazing care of Happy for over 40 days! 🐶💛 She sent regular photo updates, which gave me and my husband so much peace of mind. It was so sweet to see Happy sleeping on the bed and sofa, playing with toys, and looking completely at Josie's home. You can truly tell that she treats Happy for like family. I’m so grateful — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible dog sitter!”

“Ashley & Michael took all my requeata to heart. Truffles had a big doggie smile in several pictures and was sure to reintroduce me to their gentile doggo. I am thankful to them and this platform”

“There are not enough good things to say about Emily! It was like having a friend I’ve known for years look after my pet! The open communication and reassurance she provided is unmatched. She was patient with the fact I’ve never boarded my cat, so was a little nervous with how he’d do…but she was so understanding, compassionate and loving towards my little guy! I picked Emily randomly…and am so thankful I did!! Highly recommend and now feel at ease with any future trips…as I’ll be using her again.”

“Alisa was amazing!! She sent tons of pictures loving on our dog! She also took him for walks and he got plenty of outdoor play! Her house was so clean and smelled amazing, which is difficult when taking care of multiple pets! Plus, she is so nice and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend Alisa and we are already booked for our next stay with her!”

“Brianna was great with our dog, Comet! She clearly loves dogs and took such great care of him, sending us regular updates of Comet over the three days he stayed with her. We will definitely be repeat clients.”

“Maddie had such a good time with Isabella! She was so gentle and caring, and made sure Maddie got plenty of walks and attention. I highly recommend her- she'll take great care of your pets and put your mind at ease.”

“Deborah was great about sending updates and treating our pup like family :). He had such a great time. Will definitely be checking with her first when we need boarding again!”


“Tasha was fantastic and took great care of my cat, Frankie! She was very flexible when it came to dropping him off/picking him up, and sent frequent picture and video updates. Frankie had a lot of new friends to play with, and I loved seeing how easily he adjusted with a welcoming host!”


About: Hi, I’m Angelica, a retired veteran and passionate pet lover who’s been dog sitting since 2017. After losing my service dog Buddy, I turned my love for animals into a mission to care for yours like family. I’m experienced with dogs of all kinds—puppies, seniors, and those with medical needs—happily administering medications and tailoring care to each pet’s unique personality. I adore taking dogs on car rides, hiking trails, or exploring nearby lakes, and I offer pick-up and drop-off services for an additional fee. From my time volunteering in Phuket, Thailand (2016) to walking dogs at Koh Lanta’s Animal Welfare, I bring a world of care to every furry friend. Whether it’s potty training, baths (just ask for pricing!), or cuddles on the bed (if allowed), your pet will feel right at home. I’m also comfortable with cats, farm animals, and endless games of fetch! I prefer meet-and-greets before bookings to ensure a perfect fit. Let’s give your four-legged family member the love and adventure they deserve with Best Buddy Dog Sitting! As a retired veteran, I’m all in for pet care! I’m available weekdays and weekends, offering sitting in my home or yours—wherever your pet feels happiest. My schedule revolves around giving them the love and attention they deserve. My home features a fenced yard—perfect for romping or leashed adventures—plus quiet, low-traffic streets for walks. If the weather’s good and they’re up for it, well-behaved pets join me on outings, from car rides to playdates with other friendly dogs. In your home, I adapt to their routine, ensuring they feel secure and cared for.
“Maelynn sent us pictures and my pets look happy. We have a flight delay and pets ended up having to stay extra 12 hours. We appreciate Maelynn being flexible and caring our pets.”

“Ana was a great host for our dog’s 2 night, 3 day stay!! Very communicative and flexible with our dog’s needs! Her background in fostering dogs definitely shows! Will highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: I own a King Charles Cavalier and a German Shepherd currently! I grew up on a farm in southern Indiana with multiple foster and adopted animals! My mother instilled a serious love and adoration for people and their favorite pets. I volunteered at our local animal shelter, was trained in multiple animal science courses, and was taught to love and respect the animals I work with, both domesticated and exotic. I have handled dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, foxes, raccoons, bobcats, farm livestock, petting zoo animals, and more. I love them and have tons of professional experience to give your fur-baby the best experience possible. Please feel free to message or call whenever needed and I am more then happy to accommodate ANYTHING you or your sweet pet needs. I have lots of time on my hands, currently we start our mornings with a good meal and a long walk along our neighborhood. We will head to the house for a quick nap or so that our older dogs and puppies can rest. We then head to either the local state park or a dog park for some new stimulation. When we return home, we have some free time with toys and puzzles, enjoy another good meal, take another long, walk around the neighborhood, and then cuddle on the couch or in the beds until bedtime. I don’t have a fence in yard however, we have multiple leashes here as well as one that you would prefer to use. All of our animals are continuously monitored, I work part-time, and we also have cameras in the house. Feel free to request photos or videos of your baby at any point in time.
