I highly recommend Bryce! Hazel had such a great time during her stay. Bryce kept us updated by sending us photos and took such great care of her with so much love and attention. It meant a lot to us, especially since this was Hazel’s first time staying away from home. We felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. We will definitely book with Bryce again!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 26, 2026

I almost hate to provide this review for Bryce because I want the great care Coco received to be my secret. When I did my initial meet and greet with Bryce, I knew Coco would be in good hands and so did she. She immediately went to Bryce without hesitation. Then after our first booking. Bryce provided pictures. You can’t tell me she wasn’t smiling; heck, I feed and care for her and I can’t get that reaction. I am very happy with the care Coco received and I will definitely book Bryce again.

House Sitting • Aug 25, 2026

Bryce was a wonderful dog sitter for my 2 girls. He spent a lot of time with them and gave me updates and pictures of them. I felt like for the nights I was away they were very safe and content. I highly recommend Bryce to annoying looking for doggie care!

We had a great experience and everything was perfect from start to finish. Cooper was well cared for, comfortable, and happy, and the communication throughout the stay was great. We are moving soon and wanted to find someone close to our new house who we could trust. With my fiancée having a baby soon, we know we will need someone dependable to watch him when she goes into the hospital to deliver. After this stay, we feel really good knowing we found someone nearby that we can count on. My lady also loved the bow tie, matching pillow, and treat bag they made for him. That was a really thoughtful touch and definitely appreciated. We will definitely book with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone caring and dependable.

Schedule

I'm a full-time junior studying business law, so I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your pet real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. Your dog will be treated like a true member of the family, with constant supervision, plenty of affection, and a consistent daily routine. My mom is also registered on Rover and will be right there loving on your pup too, she calls herself their honorary godmommy 😊. 🐾 Small Group Boarding: I keep things limited to no more than 3 dogs at a time, including Storm, so every dog gets a calm, attentive environment where they can play safely and rest easy. 🐾 Senior & Special Needs Care: I'm happy to care for senior dogs and pets with special needs. Since these dogs may need extra attention or physical assistance, I'll work with you directly on the details based on what your dog requires. 🐾 Separate Feeding: To avoid any food guarding or anxiety, every dog is fed separately.

Safety, trust & environment

I do have an apartment, however there is tons of safe and surveilled space to walk dogs and they will easily be able to go on mile+ walks if need be. My dog is another member of the family and I do mean that literally. She is treated as such and even eats at the same time as us (when she feels like it) and your dog will be treated no different than her as all pets deserve the best.

Pets

A typical day

🐾 Morning Meal & Cuddles Start the day with breakfast and some quality one-on-one time. 🐾 Morning Walk to the Pond About 30 minutes after eating, we head out on our mile walk to the pond, plenty of time to stretch their legs and explore. 🐾 Regular Potty Breaks Breaks every few hours throughout the day so your dog stays comfortable. Between noon and 3pm, walks are kept short due to the heat, just enough for a quick potty break to keep paws and energy levels safe. 🐾 Playtime & Downtime Depending on your dog's personality, this could mean active play, games, or just relaxing together on the couch. 🐾 Evening Meal & Second Walk Dinner followed by our second mile walk to the pond to wind down before bedtime. 🐾 Final Potty Break One last quick break before bed for a peaceful night's sleep.

Happy to set up a meet & greet first if that would help you feel more comfortable before booking 💕 🛏️ If possible, please send your dog with their favorite toys and linens to help them feel more at home. 💉 We ask that all pups arrive clean and up to date on vaccines to keep the environment safe and healthy for everyone 🐕 To make sure your dog has a smooth and comfortable stay, it helps to know a bit more beforehand: 🐾 Is there anything specific that tends to set your dog off or make them reactive? 🐾 What usually triggers their barking? 🐾 How do they typically do around other dogs, different sizes and genders included? 🐾 Do they get along well with other dogs in general? 🐾 Are they house trained and comfortable in an apartment setting? Crate trained as well? 🐾 Anything else I should know, habits, quirks, or medical needs?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
