“I can’t recommend Elisse enough! She was an absolute gem when it comes to taking care of my pup. From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear that she genuinely love animals and go above and beyond to ensure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved. I got regular updated and photos during my visit.”
“We were in town for some sightseeing and needed a last minute day care for Gus. Robert was close to our hotel, responded quickly and was very professional. Gus was off and playing upon arrival. Would highly recommend him for your pet sitting needs.”
“It was my first time ever using rover so I was nervous of course because this is my child we are talking about. But, Pamela was so so kind and extremely helpful through the whole process. She was more than accommodating for us and while baby sitting our pup she was updating me with pictures and did walks frequently. When I saw my pup to pick her up she was so happy and looked so comfortable and that put my heart at ease. We will MOST DEFINITELY be using Pamela again!!!!”
“Sarah and Todd were quick to respond to our request and so accommodating for our dog during our quick overnight trip to Springfield. They were so communicative and went above and beyond! It was a convenient option that gave us peace of mind and flexibility with limited pet friendly lodging options!”
“We are very fortunate to have found Sarah. Our pup, Honey, was a rescue that had been mistreated. It has made her highly anxious with new experiences. Honey needed a sensitive and experienced person. Sarah put us right at ease, kept us informed the entire time and took expert care of our girl! Highly, highly recommend!!!!!”
“Thank you so much Anna and Jake, all the updates were nice, Prophet’s a good boy, and you showed him so much love, he was sad to leave after a day!”

About: Hi, I’m Emily and I already love your dog ☺️ Here’s how I know they’ll love it here too: • 12+ years experience caring for dogs • Home all day (work from home) • Large fenced yard • Cozy pet-friendly furniture • Great neighborhood for walks Bonuses: • Hallie (my dog) is ready to play! She’s super friendly. • My 10 year old son is often here and also ready to play! • Your dog may have new nicknames and/or songs about them by the time you pick up • I’m an artist, and I sometimes do pet artwork… 👀 I work from home primarily, so first check my available dates. But I’m flexible so let me know what you need and I’ll do my best to work with you! I have a fenced in yard, a playful dog and son, and lots of cozy spots to relax inside as well! We go on occasional walks as well ☺️
“Kimberly was great! It was my first time using this app and leaving my dog in the care of a stranger. But my pup was right at home as soon as she arrived. Kimberly sent the cutest photos and updates. I knew my pup was in good hands. And when I went to pick up my pup, she was excited to see me but went back inside like she was totally down with not leaving.”
“Valerie is amazing. After a dog sitter canceled mid stay, while we were out of town over 2300 miles away. Valerie came to the rescue. With short notice Valerie was available and made me feel very comfortable leave my fur child with her. I enjoyed getting the pictures she sent of Rocket during his stay. I would 10/10 recommend Valerie. We will for sure be using her again. Very much appreciated!”
“Taylor took exceptional care of our sweet girl while we did a quick trip away! She went above and beyond making her comfortable between fireworks and some rainy weather (both of which make her very anxious). Also we were provided great updates on our pup while we were gone!”
About: I have had babies all my life! If you need a loving home for them to visit while your gone-you found the right person! I have been bringing in babies for others while they are gone on family trips the last 5 years. I currently work part time. This allows me the freedom to help out others that may want to plan a get away. I am will to pick up and bring your baby back. With in reason (30 miles) if further we can set up a meeting point. I have a blue tooth collar for the dogs as I don’t have fenced in area at this time. We are in the country with plenty of room to play!
“Jillian took incredible care of my dog, Dan. She was great at providing regular updates and pictures. Dan loved his time with her! I'll definitely be booking with Jillian again.”
“Chloe and her fur kids were amazing in caring for my small dog, Bailey. Communication was above and beyond what I expected with frequent updates including photos. I was able to be away for two nights, with not a single worry as it was very clear Bailey was being cared for just as much as I would have. It was obvious that Bailey had a great time and she got tons of attention! I will definitely be leaving Baikey with Chloe again and would highly recommend her!”
“Bentley loves going over and staying with John. He has a fenced in yard with doggie door. Bentley loves to play with other dogs and always comes home tired and happy. Already have another scheduled time with John.”
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 7:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 7 and 5 that love nature and animals.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and currently have one of my own, so caring for them is second nature! I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs. We love to play, run around in our large yard, learn new tricks, and go on evening walks. There are also 2 kiddos at home who will make sure your pup is never bored! I work from home with a flexible schedule. The only time I am scheduled to leave the house is to take my kiddo to and from daycare. I am also flexible on if you would like long term or just occasional schedule. My dog is 5, and we have plenty of play time, potty breaks, and an evening walk. I treat any dog in my home as if it were my own! I have 1 dog now, so I am sure their schedules would likely align during the day.
