“From the moment Katie came for the Meet and Greet I knew she was awesome! I have 3 rescue dogs and a psycho cat, and they all took to her immediately. Just finished up our first sit with Katie and it went great. I want to tell you it was horrible so I can keep her to myself, but that would be a lie! She will love your babies like her own - my super anxious boy whined at the window when she left. She is LEGIT!!”

“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog Layla while we were away. She kept us updated with sweet messages and photos, and we could tell Layla was happy and well-loved the whole time. We came home to a relaxed, content pup — we couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend Elizabeth and would absolutely book with her again.”

“Rachelle was a very nice, considerate and tidy sitter to have in my home. She let us know all was well and responded quickly to our texts. When we returned home Kikki came downstairs to greet me and went and sat near Rachelle ‘s feet. So she was definitely Kikki approved.”

“Jaclyn was so kind to come and meet me prior to our booking. My dog loves her from the moment they met and she sent me pics throughout the weekend. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

“Lenys was great with Charlie! She took great care of her and always provided updates and pictures! She also went above and beyond by doing things like washing the bedding, taking out the trash, vacuuming, etc. I would definitely use her to watch Charlie again!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and connection I bring to every animal I work with. I have experience with all types of animals, and I treat each one like they’re my own patient, gentle, and fully attentive to their needs. I don’t believe in one size fits all care. I follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a great communicator, always keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is truly in good hands. With a calm energy, a clean environment, and genuine passion for animals, I make every pet’s stay a positive and stress free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I build my day around the animals I’m watching. I start and end each day with feeding, potty breaks, and quality time, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, play, and exercise throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, check ins, or simply giving them comfort and company, I plan my schedule to stay consistent and reliable. Pets aren’t an “extra” for me they’re a meaningful part of my day, and I make sure their needs are met with patience, love, and structure. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything exactly how their pet is used to. I stick closely to the pet’s daily schedule, maintain their feeding and exercise routine, and make sure they get quality time, attention, and reassurance. No matter where the care takes place, my goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and stress free, just like they’re with family.
“Samantha was a great match for us. She took great care of Millie and was an excellent communicator. She was overnight several nights and and I had no concerns. You can tell Samantha is a dog lover and is kind and patient.”

About: I follow instructions very well, and in tune with the needs of your pet. I’m also familiar with different forms of pet care for any unique needs. I’m currently working part time and they are cutting my hours so I have more time flexibility granted to me, a lot of time off. I can come to the comforts of your home and care for your pets, keeping them in their familiar environment to reduce stress and anxiety.
About: Have owned all types of animals all my life and grown up with them. Always ready to meet a new friend and establish new animal relationships I work an 8-5 job with an hour lunch break. I can follow strict schedules and maintain flexibility. I can accommodate special needs. I am home most nights and weekends. missed pick up times may be subject to an additional 50 dollar fee and rescheduling of pick up I can provide love and care to your pet and a comforting environment. Playing with them and marking sure they are happy and healthy in different settings
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. They show us so much love. Who are we not to give it back in return. Since the passing of our long time dog (Roc,15) we’ve been watching our friends and family dogs while they’re out of town. In each case the owners return with their dogs a little hesitant about wanting to return home. LOL. I work from home and I have no plans of switching to another job that would require me to go into the office. Therefore, I have plenty of time to play with your big and little babies. I also like to take walks at minimum twice a day. This is a perfect time for your fur babies to stretch their legs. After a nice long walk I clean their paws to make sure they leave the yucky stuff outside. I have a designated area where they can sleep. However, I like to keep them close to me during the day while I’m working. I think it sets them up for a positive visit. They immediately become part of the family. I also have the flexibility to take them out throughout the day. There is a highly recommended veterinarian within a two minute driving distance and maybe a ten minute walk in the event of an emergency.
“Jeff stayed with our 6 year old springer spaniel for a week. He did a great job. He communicated via text frequently with updates, pics, and short videos. Jeff responded quickly and was easy to communicate with. My wife and I both liked him. Most importantly, when we got home it was clear that our pup just loved him.”

About: 🐾 Buddy’s Boarding — Where Pets Feel at Home 🌈 Hi! We’re Percy and Darik, two experienced pet lovers offering premium dog boarding from our home in Brown Deer. I’m a professional dog handler with experience working with hundreds of dogs of all breeds and temperaments, and Darik works from home full time. Between the two of us, pups are rarely ever alone and always cared for with confidence, attention, and a whole lot of love. 🐶 Why pet parents love Buddy’s Boarding: • Spacious fenced in yard for play and potty breaks • Flexible pick-up/drop-off times with clear communication • Convenient location — just 10 minutes from I-43 and Hwy 41 • Quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with sidewalks and green space • Two attentive, dog-experienced sitters under one roof ✨ Our Story ✨ Buddy’s Boarding is named after the dog that started it all. At 10 years old, I found Buddy as a stray near my dad’s business and begged my mom to let us keep him. She said yes, and from that moment on, my bond with animals was sealed. That connection still fuels the love and care we give every dog who stays with us. Whether your pup is active and playful or chill and cuddly, we tailor each stay to their needs. Let us know your dog’s routine and preferences, we’re happy to accommodate. 🟢 Drop Off & Pick Up Windows 🟢 Monday through Friday 8am to 8pm Weekends 9am to 7pm Pick ups or drop offs outside of the window can be accommodated for an additional fee. We can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home. 🐾 👉 Send us a request to get started! We’d love to meet your pup! Schedule Caring for dogs is our full time focus. Darik provides Rover pet care full time, and I am home the majority of the time, aside from a short shift on Thursday mornings from 6am to noon. This allows us to maintain a calm, attentive environment where dogs are rarely alone and always have someone nearby to meet their needs. Safety We prioritize safety by pet-proofing our home, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and supervising pets at all times. Whether it’s backyard play or a leashed walk, we ensure dogs are always in secure, pet-friendly environments. We also tailor safety measures to each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Trust Building trust with both pets and their people is at the heart of what we do. We take time to understand each dog’s routine and preferences, and we maintain regular communication with pet parents — sharing updates and photos so they always feel connected and confident in our care. Environment Our home is clean, cozy, and designed with dogs in mind — with plenty of space to move, comfy spots to rest, and loving attention throughout the day. We create a calm, positive environment and adjust our approach to meet each dog where they’re at.
Northridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Whitney was very caring and attentive with both Ollie and us-we were obviously concerned that he get the attention an elderly dog needs. She sent pictures and regular updates throughout our absence, which definitely eases a pet parent’s concerns! I love that she confirmed the stay at multiple points and kept us looped in. I highly recommend her!

Rachelle was a very nice, considerate and tidy sitter to have in my home. She let us know all was well and responded quickly to our texts. When we returned home Kikki came downstairs to greet me and went and sat near Rachelle ‘s feet. So she was definitely Kikki approved.

Emily was amazing! She sent many photos/ videos. Gave us updates all weekend long. You could tell she gave Libby lots of love! The house was clean when we returned . Emily brought in mail, packages, and garbage can after garbage pick up day. She emptied her garbage, and put all dishes in the dishwasher, and stripped the sheets. I would hire Emily again in a heartbeat! Thanks so much Emily!!
