“This was the first time we had to leave our 10 month old puppy for 3 days. Janine sent us photos and texted us many times during our vacation. That made me feel good and I knew he was getting all the attention he needed and wanted. In fact, when we came home from our trip, our puppy slept all afternoon............I knew he was tired from all the playing with the other dogs! I will definitely use Janine again for sure!”


“Nathan and Jenna were wonderful at giving us updates on how our girl was doing. She is a nervous nelly and they took their time with her to make her feel comfortable!”


“Cassie was great from start to finish! We were leaving on a family vacation for a week and our normal sitter had to cancel last minute. Cassie took our pup in with almost no notice and treated her like a queen! Truly seem like an amazing family, very caring and amazing with animals! Thank you all for taking such good care of our Purdy!”


“I was extremely happy with the care that Gail provided my dog, Cinnamon. She sent daily pictures and updates which helped ease the worry of leaving Cinnamon for the first time. I will definitely be booking with Gail again in the future!”


“James was a pleasure to deal with. He provided pictures of Maria along with updates during her stay. Everything went smoothly. Maria seemed happy and well taken care of when I picked her up.”


“Doug was so thoughtful and kind with Milo — he truly enjoyed his stay at Doug’s home. I highly recommend him with my eyes closed! Very friendly and attentive, he always kept me updated about my puppy. Always willing to walk him and take care of him — thank you!!! Without a doubt, I’ll be reaching out again to leave my furry one with him!”


“Kristin was great and provided Abby with a safe, family environment with lots of stimulation. It's harder with a puppy who is just learning about life (and where to poo/pee!) and this was an unscheduled trip for me, but Kristin came through. Thanks, Kristin!”


“Savannah was awesome! She kept me up to date with both pictures and videos. My husband and I both commented on how nice it was to take Sylvie to Savannah's home, compared to a boarding kennel. She got a lot more love, attention and care and came home smelling great too!”


“Once again, Norma provided a safe, fun and happy environment for our precious Juliet while we were out of the country. It's so nice to be worry-free while we're on vacation! Thanks Norma for another great experience!”


“We feel so comfortable with Paula and Bill taking care of our Finny. We are very happy we found them and plan to secure them for all of our future needs. Very happy with their communication, photos and daily updates.”


“Tiffany was wonderful! Bailey had a great time during his stay and was well taken care of. Definitely will be using Tiffany again in the future (if she’s not totally booked and will have Bailey back!).”


“Athena was very responsive and understanding of Bella’s needs. She also kept in contact with me and even sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future.”


About: Having a pet of my own with diabetes set me on a path to learn more and start a career toward helping animals that may need more care than others. I am a helper by trade and love spending time with pets so I hope I can apply my years of dedication and adoration for animals by helping take care of yours when you need assistance. I work as a general handyman and take classes toward veterinary technician and looking to help others with my spare time. Walking dogs is a passion of mine and, depending on the owner's request, can keep it local or take them to a desired park or hiking path. I walk daily on my own so a few extra paws would be good for me and the pooch! My cats are indoor/outdoor so they roam but stay close to the property. I do not leave them out alone. Inside we play a bit until they get bored, listen to music, and of course they nap...mostly they nap... When I have had dogs in the past, they get outside time to enjoy the sunshine and breeze and we're never left out in bad weather conditions. They've always had a safe and comfortable place inside the home.

“Suzanne went above and beyond caring for our 2 labs over the weekend. One of our pups had some behavioral issues but Suzanne handled it perfectly and kept us updated with photos and continued feedback! I highly recommend her if you want a conscientious pet sitter! Five stars ⭐️!!!!”


“Rikki and her family were excellent!! It was our first time boarding our 10 month old pup Luna, so we were nervous (and a bit high maintenance), but she put us at ease and was very communicative. Luna stayed about two full days and nights with Rikki. We met Rikki, her small kids, and other pups (two own, two other Rovers) at drop off — everyone was wonderful. They all spent tons of time outside with Luna, which is exactly what we wanted for her. Luna and the pups played around as soon as we got there, and based on Rikki’s pics/messages, that’s most of what they did for the two days. We came by to walk Luna after the first overnight, thinking she might have some separation anxiety, but Luna was happily tail wagging from the puppy party. Overnight, Luna slept in the bed with Rikki and her sweet daughter — again exactly what we hoped for. When we picked Luna up, she was happy as ever - thrilled to see us, but also seemed a bit torn to leave her new friends behind. Such is life. Perfect, sweet family for an energetic sweet pup that is good with social situations. Will absolutely come back to Rikki if we have another boarding need while in town.”


“Absolutely amazing. Sherri made sure Coco felt comfortable and happy the whole time I was gone. She also made me feel comfortable with leaving my baby! 100% recommend to everyone! Thank you so much.”


“We love Alicia! So fortunate to have found her, and so is my Dog! She has excellent communication and checks in with you during the stay. Although it’s our dog, it’s still nice to have the updates. Thank you for being so good to him and us!”


“Deanna took great care of my dog, Lea, while I was gone. She is very nice, provided daily updates of how my dog’s day was, and her dog Maui was the best co-host, making Lea feel at home. I really appreciated her fully fenced in yard, too, as my dog does not have the best leash etiquette. I will definitely book with her again!”
