“We are repeat customers of Edmy and Craig. Nobody takes better care of them! This time, Craig came to feed and walk our dogs for 3 days while I was out of town for work and my husband was working. Craig always leaves detailed notes and some cute photos in their Rover Card. We’re forever grateful for Craig and Edmy! :)”


“Tracy is the best! We are new to the area and he was kind of enough to stop by before the scheduled visit to say hello and to meet the dogs. They absolutely loved him and his communication was great!”


“Charity is great, my pup is very shy and timid but Charity was very patient and gentle with her. This was our first time leaving her for multiple days so the updates were very appreciated. Thank you Charity, we'll definitely be using her again for any future needs!”


“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”


“Hannah was wonderful throughout the whole process, and Bella was so happy and calm when we got home. Hannah was an excellent communicator and sent the sweetest notes and pictures of Bella each time she stopped by. We recommend Hannah to everyone, and we’re looking forward to having her watch Bella again in the future! Thank you, Hannah!!”

About: I, Carter and my mother Mindy, have been pet owners our entire lives. We have experience with young, adult, and senior dogs. Along with experience in administering certain types of medications, and our house is blind dog friendly thanks to indoor gates and a fenced in and safe backyard. We’ve recently lost our last dog and don’t plan to get another animal companion, but we love to help people care for their furry companions temporarily as a way to give back to the same people who did such for us when we were pet owners. Mindy works from home and loves to work outside in her garden, which would mean a lot of outside time for your pet in our fenced in backyard. Carter is around more in the mornings and nights meaning if your animal is a “night owl” they shall still be cared for round the clock. We have a designated area for food and water in our house, along with many toys and bones from throughout the years. We are in a very safe neighborhood with a fenced in backyard and lots of room to run. Any animals living with us will always be treated with kindness and a sense of belonging no matter the duration of their stay!

“Tonie was amazing! Super nice and very flexible! It really made me feel better knowing she could help me get my pup out for some exercise and socializing while I was at work!! I would definitely ask her to help out again!”

About: We are new to Rover, and ready to meet your furry family member! I’ve spent my life around dogs and had the privilege of raising my own from puppyhood to his senior years — 14 amazing years together. While I’m not looking to bring a new dog into my home full-time right now, I still genuinely enjoy being around them. I tailor care to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to match their rhythm — from active walks to quiet downtime. My husband and I work full-time, and we work together to care for your dog during early afternoons through the evenings on weekdays, as well as full days on weekends. We team up to provide consistent, loving attention for your dog. Safety and trust mean a lot to us. Our girls have grown up around dogs and always show so much love and care — they’ll stop every dog we see just to say hi, give hugs, and plenty of belly rubs. We have a fenced yard where dogs can safely play, and no other dogs in our home, so your pup will have plenty of space and attention. We always follow the owner’s instructions to keep up with their usual routine — activity, meals, naps, and all — to make sure your dog feels comfortable and at home. We know dogs need both chill time and playtime, so we make sure there’s plenty of space to relax and feel comfortable, plus lots of chances to get active and use their energy. As a family, we work together to give your dog the best care possible, treating them like one of our own.

“We had Stephanie care for our two frenchie puppies while we were in a 12 day vacation. We had never been away from our pups for more than a night, so I was very nervous to have them stay in another persons home. We found Stephanie and she came to live in, house sit as well as dog sit for us. She was phenomenal!! She took care of our girls like they were her own, as well as maintained our home. We struggled with getting the pups fully housebroke and when we returned they were! She kept them on a schedule, checked in with us twice a day and sent pictures. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies, you won’t regret it!!”
