“Leo had the best stay with Vasylyna! From cuddles, playtime, and walks, my dog really enjoyed Vasylyna and her home! She provided a ton of updates and pictures while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“5 stars isn't enough. Sandy kept my 2 labrador puppies in her home for 8 days in May. She is hands-down the best! She messaged me daily with comments and pictures and made me feel at ease. When we picked them up it was clear they were very comfortable there. My husband joked as we left that he thought they might have preferred to stay with her:) Her dog Minnie has a sweet demeanor and hit it off with our pups immediately. The interaction with another dog for an extended period was an added bonus for our pups. I am relieved that I now have a sitter that I feel good leaving them with. We will definitely be using her services again, and I have already started recommending her to my family and friends.”
“Kirsten was AMAZING with our sweet boy TBuddy. He wasn’t feeling very well and she updated me several times a day on his care. She has such a kind and loving heart and it def showed. Tbuddy had a great visit and we will be using her again. You should as well! Emily Kercheval”
“Claire did a wonderful job caring for our elderly dog Ellie! She was responsive and understanding when we needed a little bit of extended time on our way home due to bad weather!”
“We just moved to the area and were nervous to leave Kenzo with someone he didn’t know. Karen was wonderful with him! We could tell he was comfortable right away and we received daily updates with photos. We would gladly book again!”
“Madison was great with taking care of our dog! Perfect communication, great updates, and we felt at ease knowing our sweet dog was being taken care of. We highly recommend Madison! She is great!!”
“Everything went as smooth as butter. We had a quick meet and greet the day before I dropped off Tyson. Sawsan is a true dog lover like me. She kept me informed with photos and videos of Tyson. I will definitely book with Sawsan again.”
“Ruby and Israel were great with Kairo. They treated him as one of their own. They communicated the whole time they had him which made it easier to be away from my pup. I got pics and videos of him as well. If you’re in the area and need a sitter I would definitely recommend them.”
“Very torn on leaving this review, and not for what you may think/assume... Madeline and her family were obviously so sweet to Maggie during her stay...we were nervous as we didn't have any history with this wonderful family... I'm not sure Maggie wanted to leave when we picked her up! We hope to be fortunate enough to have Madeline and her crew keep Maggie when we have a need... Earlier I mentioned my hesitation in leaving a review...I didn't want the secret to get out!!! What a great experience!”
“Cierra was fantastic! She sent me daily pictures of Mulata our dog and was very communicative. Very easy going and I highly recommend Cierra. Mulata got a long great with her puppy too so everything was great!”
“This was our second time using Tyler to watch our boy, and he was fantastic yet again. Tyler treats our Archer so well, including 1-2 walks per day, administering oral meds and plenty of amazing pics/communication. Most definitely recommend!”
“Charles was a fantastic sitter for my dog Carter during our weekend trip to Waveland, MS. He kept us updated with photos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind. Carter got plenty of fresh air with daily walks through Charles’ wooded neighborhood and even a fun outing to the local farmers market. We’ll definitely be booking with Charles again if we come to town.”
“Great experience with Ade! He was super responsive and kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout the stay. Leo clearly had a blast and came home happy, calm, and totally relaxed. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you Charlotte for doing such a great job with Snowball. She came home happy - I can tell she enjoyed her stay with you. It was Snowball's first time staying with someone outside of her family, but I would trust Charotte any time!”
About: I have 20 plus years experience taking care of dogs of all ages, backgrounds, and health needs. I have also been an active foster for the local shelters/rescues for 10 years, caring for many dog breeds and nursing them back to health. I am new to Rover, but I have been rescuing, fostering, and loving dogs back to life for years now! I am a school teacher, I am open on the weekends for full time boarding, and drop ins before 7am or after 3 during the weekday. I am also open during holiday/fall/spring breaks during the year. I have a fully fenced in yard, and your pup is allowed anywhere in my home if dog friendly. I have a fully functional, a/c, bathroom etc.. mother-in-law cottage where I would stay with your pup, if they didn't want to socialize. I will do what works for you!
“Samantha did a great job of caring for our dog, Arthur, for the week we were on vacation. He immediately felt at home when we arrived. He got cuddles and outdoor play. She even provides additional services of bathing and nail clipping. We will definitely use Samantha again when Arthur needs a sitter.”

She volunteers countless hours at our local animal shelter bathing, walking and socializing pets to prepare them for their future adoption. Her dedication to helping lost animals find their owners and stray animals find their forever homes is inspiring! She is knowledgeable with many breeds and has experience with dogs that have had a traumatic start in life. My dog and I have had the joy of being along side Donya for her enthusiastic, high energy walks! Donya is the 🐾 paw-fect 🐾 guardian to care for your special pet. ❤️”
