“This was our first time using Rover. Tate and Rosie, our two yellow labs, had a great overnight stay with Ellie. She gave them plenty of attention and activity - like going to dog camp! We picked them up happy and tired the next day. Thank you for taking good care of them, Ellie!”
“Our dog had a great time staying with Stephanie while we were in Williamsburg. Stephanie has a huge back yard where the dogs can run around, and she sent us regular updates on how he was doing. Stephanie was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and made the whole process extremely easy. Highly recommend.”
“Amanda & Scott are the best! They have taken great care of our pouch about 5 or 6 times now and it's always a great experience. They sent picture and communicate well. As an added bonus, their new location has a great fenced in backyard for the pups to run all they want.”
“My dog was loved and cared for by Lynn as if she was still with me! Lynn sent so many pictures and messages which assured me that she was doing well without me. I strongly recommend her as a pet sitter for anyone who loves their pet!”
“We can’t say enough about Savannah. She was an absolute godsend for our family. After driving for almost 8 hours and arriving at our hotel at 9 PM on a Friday evening, we found out that their pet friendly policy only applied to dogs. That was a major issue for us since we had brought our dog and our cat with us, sending us into an absolute panic. We sent a message to Savannah and not only did she respond immediately, but she brought us out of our panic by telling us to head right over with our sweet girl. During her time watching our Kitterz, she sent us pictures and updates daily, which let us know we left her in good hands. Going above and beyond, she invited us to visit during our vacation since she knew we were missing our girl. We wish there were more than 5 stars to rate her because she was incredible!”
About: Hello! My name is Zach, I have two dogs and two cats of my own and have grown up with no less than four pets at any given time. Often when I meet people's furry companions I'm told they warm up to me faster than normal and even some times for the first time, so I'm open to try to care for almost any pet! Responsiveness, honesty, and genuine care should be expected from a pet sitter - let me know if I can help! My partner and I work from home so we're available and flexible throughout the week for all pet care services. Just let us know when and we can try to make it work! I have a big but unfenced yard, two sweet begal-hound mix brothers (one is energetic, the other lazy) and two sweet and playful cat sisters. It's a cozy and fun home environment. All the animals get plenty of attention (we love to play) and the dogs are let out consistently throughout the day. I can crate if needed, follow any special instructions, and we have a spare room if space is needed. Your pet will be treated as our own, just let us know!
“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of my dog Claire. She would send me update photos throughout my trip to ease my stress about how Claire was coping with us being gone. The difference between how happy Claire was when we returned proved that Alyssa is an incredible sitter and value compared to local kennels in the area.”
“Alyssa was wonderful with Wally! She was flexible with our time frame (the LuLu-Belle docked at 8:00) and she sent us pictures and updates of Wally throughout the day. Wally came home happy and tired from a great day of playing! Thank you, Alyssa. We highly recommend Alyssa.”
“Ryan and Stephanie are wonderful! My Charlie had such a good time! I am sure if he wants to come home! Thank you Ryan and Stephanie for taking care of our ? pup”
“We had a family emergency and Jessica was flexible and adjusted scheduling boarding Bruno on short notice. She took excellent care of Bruno. We will definitely use Jessica in the future.”
About: Creator and owner of dauchshund to the Rescue.I've always had a passion for animals since I was a little girl.I'm currently going to school for veterinary medicine. My life revolves around taking care of animals while running the rescue so I am always home to take care of all of their needs. Each dog and cat is different, so it's on a case-by-case basis, I always like to observe their behavior and take care of them based on what they seem comfortable with.
“Our pup had so much fun staying with Charles! She had lots of attention, cuddles, and playtime with puppy pals. I love that she wasn't put in a kennel and was allowed to sleep in a home environment.”
“Excellent service Alexis and her husband are heaven sent. They are very responsive and took both my pups at the last minute. I couldn't see leaving my babies with anyone else.....know that you both are our pups official caregivers when we are away. They showed both my fur babies who have different personalities so much love. Our poodle was afraid to walk off the porch before we took her to you and as soon as she got home she just ran and ran all around the yard. It may be minor to some but it means a lot to my children and I. Thank you again and we will see you soon!❤”
“Brittany is awesome. She has watched my dog twice and I would give 10 stars if I could. Shes very responsive and easy to work with. My dog was super excited when we dropped her off the second time!”
“Brandy was great with our two dogs. One is 130lbs and can often be too much for some people. She was open and both dogs came home happy and worn out. Brandy sent us lots of photos during their stay. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Alana was unbelievable with my babies. She kept me informed of all their activities, during my vacation. Not many people would do this. She is a loving individual with not just my babies but all of us. Was a pleasure meeting her and knowing the care she provides is just a huge bonus. Thank You Alana”
“Lindalyn was wonderful. She was very responsive and communicative when scheduling, in addition to answering my questions along the way. She cared for our dog like her own and made us very comfortable leaving our fur baby with her. She has a very pet-friendly home and a great fenced in backyard. We would definitely use her again, highly recommend!”
