“This was our first time using Rover and we are happy with our experience with Shaunna! Definitely going to rebook her the next time we need a dog sitter! She was so kind when we met her in person, my dog and my little daughters liked her. Shaunna was communicative throughout the whole week we were gone, she took pictures and went above and beyond. She brought Estee out to use the restroom, went on walks, gave medication, refilled her water bowl, and gave her lots of cuddles. We are very thankful for her taking care of our sheltie Estee!”


“Riley puts me at ease when I have to leave Spade (my 14 yr old Bombay male cat). She keeps me updated with photos and a narrative of what took place. She goes beyond and even cleans any mess he’s created. She is always punctual and attentive to his needs. I will recommend her with a glowing review and hope to book her on my next trip out of town. The best!”


About: I have enjoyed house sitting and caring for fur babies for 3 years. My family pet was a pitbull and Lab and a couple cats growing up. One of my current customer has a mastiff so I'm used big puppies. Im currently working a full time job that is 14 hrs a day 3 days on 4 days off. This rotates every other month Monday Tuesday Wednesday/ Thursday Friday Saturday I have my own transportation. I can do house sitting with your fur babies. Take walks and cuddles on the couch. Also I can come in take you dog for a walk while you are working

“Carla was fantastic, providing loving care to our fur baby and reassuring updates to us, with many pictures. She was responsive, prompt, and respectful of our property. Would definitely use Carla again.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a little over 5 years. I have my current dog and dog sat for family and friends. I’m entrusted to feed, walk, play and bathe (if necessary) their dogs when they have come over or if I go over to their house. My current dog takes medicine as needed (pill form) so always willing to give medicine to a dog. I work full time as a nurse, but on night shift and only 3-12s. If you were to book with me, I’d make sure I didn’t have work the nights you are booking with me. My schedule is flexible. I care for your pets like my own and my goodness my dog is spoiled. Dogs at my house are allowed on all furniture, negate tables, and will be treated like they are my own. I have a fenced in yard and dog door that allows them to be able to go in and out at their leisure or I’ll take out as much as needed. Treats (if your dog is allowed or they aren’t on a specific weight loss or diet plan) are always given. Meds , if needed for your dog will be given on a timely basis.

About: I’ve spent my whole life around large dogs and currently share my home with a 4-year-old German Shepherd who I raised and trained on my own since he was just 6 weeks old. I’ve developed an understanding of strong, energetic, and intelligent breeds over the years. Whether it’s a shy pup or a high-energy dog, I believe in patient, positive care and making sure every walk, visit, or play session is a happy one. You can trust that your dog will be treated like family in my care—because that’s how I’d want mine treated too! I work full time as a nurse, but typically have 3-4 days off each week that I love to spend outside or with animals to fill my happiness quota! I do not have a fenced in yard at my home, but am used to leashed walks with my 4 year old German shepherd. I have experience with crate training and medication administration.

About: I raised two of my family's three cats mainly by myself, providing for them on my own. I am the main one in my house to go to for calming down our dog or mediate any situation concerning our animals. I have also trained one of my cats to close doors as well as another to give kisses (head bumping to persed lips of course). I have been asked to dog-sit and house sit by family before and they were very pleased with how their house was left, saying it was very neat and they were impressed. I am currently working part-time, mostly on weekends, and will be a full-time student starting August 25th, but I do have a relatively light schedule every Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and still have some availability Tuesdays and Thursdays. In my home, I mainly take care of my cats rather than our dog, but I'm usually the one home during the day so I handle all of our pets. I have a specified diet for each of my cats, slightly varying depending on what they enjoy eating. I feed our dog wet food around 4:45pm and our cats wet food around 5:00pm. In the mornings I feed my cats wet food when I wake up and there is always dry cat and dog food out. I scoop litter once a day and change it whenever it is apparent I need to do so. When taking care of other people's pets and homes, as long as there is a list of things I need to do or a schedule of some sort, as well as an emergency number, vet number, and/or other emergency contacts, I will follow whatever rules are laid out as long as they don't put me, my animals, your home/ animals, or anyone's loved ones in any danger.

About: I have 4 years of veterinary care experience along with 2 years of pet boarding experience. I own and care for several of my own animals as well! I am currently available for afternoon visits and care on week days. I have full availability on the weekends for any needs! I can also do midday pop in’s depending on location! I have 1 very friendly dog who does amazing with other animals but if your pet isn’t a fan I always have another safe space for them. I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard therefore your pet will always be leashed for their safety. I will ensure we do lots of walks and playing to get their exercise!

“Joni was great. I was nervous leaving my cats home. They dont do well being on their own for extended periods. Joni played with them and cuddled with them. She also had no problem, on short notice, feeding them the last day as my neighbor could not. The cats are happy and so am I.”

I couldn’t ask for better care for my dogs 💕”

“Carley is incredible with my dog, Max! It can be very stressful leaving your dog behind, but when Carley watches Max I always know he is in the best care. She is great about sending pictures and videos so we don’t have to feel guilty about missing all of his adorable moments. Carley will take Max on walks around town and play with him all day. He gets so excited when she walks through the door. 10/10 would recommend her dog watching services!”
