“Heidi was amazing. This was my first experience using Rivet and she made me and my pup feel so comfortable. She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. My dog seemed to love her and all the attention! The location is beautiful with plenty of room to roam. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Patti’s whole family stepped in to help care for Love. They were so attentive, sent pictures and updates every day we were gone, and treated her like a little princess. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”

“Carl took incredible care of Milo! He came back exhausted. Carl also provided me the most pictures I’ve ever gotten, which I appreciated to see how much fun Milo had on his stay. Would 100% recommend to anyone!”

“Megan was communicative, friendly and shared photos of my girl while I was away. She enabled my dog to get acclimated before introducing her pets which was great for my timid older girl. My pup was in a great mood when I picked her up. Highly recommend.”


“I can't say enough good things about Elissa! I feel so comfortable leaving my dogs with her because she takes better care of them than I do and that says a lot. Elissa treats the dogs extremely well with so much love and knowledge on good care. If you need someone to take care of your baby, Elissa is the one.”

“They we're great with Ranger! I received updates and pictures each day about how Ranger was doing and any antics he was up to. Lots of walks were taken and i really appreciated the help and flexibility to work with my schedule. Ranger came home happy and tired from all his excitement!”


“Julia and her family were awesome. They took great care of our dog Layla. They took in our dog and let her make herself right at home on sofa. They sent us photos and were so gracious when we checked in to see how the pooch was doing. They also texted to let us know she was doing well. I know the kennels do their best but it kept our minds at ease that our dog was in a nice home while we were gone.”

“As soon as Chozo came to Emma’s place he grabbed a toy and settled in immediately. I could tell he was going to have a great weekend away. Emma was wonderful with Chozo and provided frequent updates. I’m sure Chozo will be happy to stay with her again!”

“Tricia was very easy to communicate with & made the process very easy! I felt great leaving my pup with her over the weekend and I know Pippin had a great time. She came back to me a very happy and smiley puppy.”

“Jodi and Justine took wonderful care of our 14-year old dog, Daisy, over an extended period of time this summer. Communication was great and we received reports on and photographs of Daisy from Jodi on a regular basis. Jodi reached out to us with concerns and questions on her care. Daisy was happy after her stay with Jodi and Justine. I recommend using Jodi for boarding and dog care - - she is intelligent, concerned, and provides great care.”
About: I am a certified vet tech with about 15 years experience. Additional years for pet ownership. I have been with animals my whole life and have dedicated the rest of my life to help to take care of them and make them happy. I can administer any type of medication, give subcutaneous fluids, or snuggle. Monday through Thursday I work from 7-5. I can do home visits three times daily on those days. Fridays and weekends are more flexible. My children are active participants in taking care of animals as they have been exposed to different types of pets with different demeaners. They understand to give pets their boundaries when they need their space. I have a fenced in yard for my active greyhound. I also have two cats who have automatic feeders and water fountains. My cats are older ladies so they don’t want to play but they are wonderful snugglers. My greyhound loves attention and his favorite is butt scratches. The foster pets that I would take care of would have their own safe space to be comfortable in my home.

About: I've taken care of and watched animals for practically my entire life, but the first time I had ever watched animals by myself was when I was around 10. I frequently watch and let my aunt's dogs out and have a cat of my own. I hope to have many animals someday! I am currently going to school full-time, but my classes only take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I will have plenty of time to hang out with your animal! I currently have a cat, so if your animal has an aversion to cats, I recommend booking someone else! My cat does not like other cats, but he has his own area, so they will not interact if I watch your cat in my home. If I pet sit at your home, I am accommodating to anything you need, whether staying over or just popping in to let them out!

About: I have loved dogs since I can remember—I used to read dog encyclopedias as a kid! My own dog and sidekick, Miguel, is a cute rescue with a pronounced underbite. He lives with my family far away, so I am excited to provide services (walking, dog sitting) for pets nearby! Over the summer, I am working remotely and thus have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am never away from home for more than two hours at a time. All dogs who have stayed at my apartment have been treated as my own; no couch or bed is off limits! 3+ walks a day, and a dog park nearby!
About: I have always loved and lived with pets. Growing up we had multiple cats and a dog or two at any given time. In high school, I convinced my mom to foster a litter of kittens for our local humane society and we ended up caring for litters and kittens and puppies as well as seniors and sickly dogs for years to come. Right out of college I adopted my cat, and she has been my constant companion ever since. A decade later I rescued a very reactive dog and worked for 5 years on his reactivity. We made great improvements together! If you need someone to walk your reactive dog during the day, I’m your gal! I’d also love to care for your chill, non-reactive dog when you go out of town. I have a very active toddler, so I can only board dogs who are reliably safe around small children. I am available Monday-Thursday from 9-3 for drop ins and dog walks, with some flexible availability on the weekends too. Available for boarding as well this winter I have a large fenced portion of my back yard, as well as easy access to the bike path. We have some baby gates in our house, and more in storage, if that makes sense to make your pets comfortable.
“Lisa was FANTASTIC, and we are pretty nervous dog owners. We needed an early dropoff and late pickup while our daughter graduated, and Lisa was super accomodating. We were secure and our pup was happy and safe. THANK YOU LISA!!!”

“This was William's second time staying at Aishea's and I'm glad to hear that he was more relaxed and interactive with her pets. She genuinely seems to care about my pet's wellbeing. She responds very quickly to requests and messages and easy to coordinate with. I will definitely book with Aishea again.”

“Sandra was very accommodating and welcoming. This was our first experience with having someone other than family care for Chase. He seemed at ease and well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Sandra and cannot thank her enough for making this process easy.”

“Happy and satisfied with Lataya quick response time and positive attitude given my last minute schedule changes. She is the best doggie MOM to my puppy Charlie! We bothare happy! 😌”

“Karen and family were awesome with Alibi, our 15 months old Australian Shepherd. Lots of personal attention, and a great large fenced yard for the dogs to chase each other around. Karen’s whole family welcomed Alibi into their home and she really connected with their dog Lily. All in all, the stay was great and we will certainly be using Karen’s services again!”

Heidi was amazing, I could not have asked for a better sitter for our dog, Stormy. Stormy has a tendency to be pretty anxious and shy. Heidi made her feel right at home, and sent us tons of photos and updates throughout the entire stay. I could tell from the photos that Stormy was not at all anxious while away from us, and was having a fantastic time! Heidi was also extremely flexible and accommodating with drop-off and pick-up, fast to reply to any questions we had, and communicated with us consistently while she was there. We recently moved to the area, and I was nervous about finding a new sitter for our girl. I am so grateful that we found Heidi, she will be Stormy’s sitter from now on!

This was our first time leaving our dog, Sylvie, with a sitter, and we were a bit nervous - but we didn’t need to be. Emma kept us updated with just the right amount of communication, and it was clear Sylvie was comfortable and relaxed in her care. We would absolutely book with Emma again.

We are grateful for Jodi’s loving care of our Millie. Millie is a nervous dog and does not like to be left alone. She usually travels with us but we needed to travel for dad’s funeral and it just wouldn’t have worked out for any of us. Jodi was kind and patient with Milllie and us! Millie was clearly comfortable with Jodi. It was such a relief to have a safe place for her. Jodi communicated often which was nice as well. We are grateful and excited to have a safe option for Millie.

Evan took great care of Scout. Great communication throughout and Evan went above and beyond in caring for our boy. We were sent pictures and updates regularly. Scout was given so much love, exercise and care. Would def rebook. We are grateful that our pup was so loved while we were away.
