“She did great with our girl! Sent pics and updates daily which helped so much since we hate leaving her!! Definitely will book again”
“Mikayla was super friendly and very accommodating. She updated me with daily pictures. My dog had a great time playing with other pups as well 😊”
“This is my first time boarding Trigger with Skyla and he loved it there. He’s a rescue and very wary and after he got comfortable Trigger made himself right at home. Skyla has two sweet pups and Trigger really took to Louie the chihuahua. Louie is quite the ambassador! Thank you for taking such good care of my sweet boy.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Kelli as my dog sitter, and I can't recommend her enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she truly loves animals and understands their needs. Meeting her amazing dog Khan told me all that I needed to know about her. Kelli kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages. I felt completely confident that my dog was going to be taken care of someone with capable hands. If you're looking for a responsible, kind, and professional dog sitter, Kelli is definitely the one to trust”
About: Ever since I can remember I have had a pet in my household. We have taken care of elderly, sick and energetic pups. We love on each pet as if they were our own. I am available mostly on weekends but can dog sit during the week as well. We do have full time jobs but your babies will always get full time love and attention. Our home has a huge fenced in yard. Enough space for your baby to run around and be safe. We have two pups one Cavalier/Poodle mix and one Mini Schnauzer.
“Brooke is very sweet! She obviously knows how nerve wracking it is for a furparent to get away. She kept great communication with me throughout the whole stay and sent a few pics to ease any anxiety. I love my boys and she treated them with the same love. I feel comfortable leaving my furbabies with her again.”
“Yolanda took great care of our pup! She and her family played frisbee with Dakota (her favorite) and sent a photo and video of her to check in.”
“I can’t thank Niki enough for watching my energetic, but cautious of people, 2 year old Boston Terrier! She was wonderful with Pippin and sent me daily updates and I knew he had a great time because he kept looking out the window as we drove away! We will be back for sure!”
“Absolutely great. Takes plenty of pics showing how much fun our dog was having. So patient with my dog who was pretty much untrained, Jovanny trained our dog to walk much better on a leash & gave us plenty of tips. Will definitely be returning for dog-sitting as well as training classes.”

“Terri was wonderful. We met first at her home so Rowdy could meet her dog Luke and they hit it off right away. Terri is friendly and welcoming and I knew Rowdy would be well taken care of in her care. She sent us pictures and always replied to text or calls right away. She has a dog park in her neighborhood and what a wonderful plus that is! I would not hesitate to leave my pet with her again. This is so much better then boarding at a kennel where my dog sits alone in a kennel most of the day. 5 stars Terri!”

About: I have had pets since I was a little girl. I have learned how to handle dogs and take care of them. I groomed my poodle, lhasa apsos and shih tsu since 1980. My dogs are deceased now and instead of getting any others I would love to help pet owners who need some time away or just need someone to help out from time to time. Many days I will be free to care for small dogs. I attend church on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. I also will be traveling and doing missions work. I will use a leash to be sure your pet is safe while outside. When I am caring for someone else's animal I will be with it at all times. I can care for them at my home or yours.

Free schedule for day pet care or walks or anything you need. Fits my needs and should fit your also, free for work I will offer to feed your dogs. Let them out in backyard or take on walks. Keep the dogs clean and house clean. Play with them daily.
About: I have cared for several dogs of all breeds and sizes. I like to stay active and go on walks, hikes and be outdoors as much as indoors. I work full-time, but I am able to come home during my lunch break to take care of your loved one. I am home on the weekends. I have over an acre of land that your dog can roam freely on. I also have two other dogs that your dog can play with and/or I can keep them separate. I can crate your dog so they feel safe if that’s preferred.
About: I'm a down to earth dog mama to two spoiled rotten Boxers. They are very friendly and love other animals. I absolutely love animals. I understand that every dog is different, they have different needs and personalities and I'm happy to say that I'm easy to adapt to such. Safety and care are top priority and of coarse undivided attention. Your pet(s) would be well taken care of as if they were my own. I know how much fur babies mean to the family. I enjoy playing and taking dogs on walks. I'm very patient and don't mind helping to potty train or assist in learning commands for the younger ones. I look forward to hearing from you and hope to be able to help tend to your fur baby. Thank you for your time. I'm currently available anytime. If and when my schedule changes I will update accordingly. Any questions involving my schedule I will be more than happy to answer. I have a large yard and can take your fur baby on a leash. I two playful dogs of my own to give your dog(s) company. I can also crate if that is so requested.
About: I am at home most of the day and go on walks every 2 to 4 hours depending on the dogs needs. Will provide pictures if needed. I have a doggie camera for when i am not at home that allows me to talk to them and see what they are up to. Very easy to get along with and flexible. I have a Jack Russel terrier myself so I have lots of toys for a high energy dog. Also had use to older more mellow dogs that need to relax. I work at home so your dog will always have someone around to look after them. All dog breeds are welcome. Prefer dogs that do not have a aggressive personality since I may have other dogs being boarded.

Jesus T.
“As a fellow Rover care provider, I highly recommend Jesus aka Tony as a sitter. With 15 years of experience as a pet owner, Tony is knowledgeable about the behaviors and idiosyncrasies of various dog breeds, from toy-sized Yorkies to larger breeds like German Shepherds and special care for French Bulldogs and other types that tend to overheat. Punctual and reliable, Tony is someone I trust to care for pets, whether it’s dog boarding, walking, or house sitting. Your pets will be in excellent hands!”
