“This was our first boarding experience and it went so well! Brittany was an excellent communicator and sent regular updates, and our dogs came home exhausted after a weekend full of play. We will definitely send our pups here again!”
“Once again, Alicia has taken such good care of my dog! Alicia is so kind to the animals in her care and flexible and supportive with the owner (me)! She sent many pictures over the course of the stay, and I could see my dog smiling and playing with the other dogs. My dog is always friendly and happy when I pick her up, and I swear she comes back with better manners! Alicia has established a warm environment for the dogs in her care in which they have the opportunity to be dogs with dog friends doing dog things. I’m so glad I found her to sit my pup!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve worked for my neighbors in the past to walk, hangout with, or care for 8 years. I am open to any schedule that works best for you! I am available overnights, weekdays, and weekends. I will work with your schedule do matter what. I have a big fenced back-yard for your baby to roam whenever. I have a 10 year old husky who would love some new friends!
“Robin was very communicative through the whole experience. I needed a last minute sitter and robin confirmed our reservation the same day! She also was very friendly upon dropping him off and picking him up. Also sent lots of pictures throughout the experience”
“Hannah did a great job with Archer! She got Archer to eat when he was being finicky. Both of our old dogs seemed to get along well. I appreciated all the updates and pics. She was super flexible with drop off and pick up times and was very communicative.”
“Communication to make a specific plan that worked for our schedules went well, and she went out of her way to make accommodations for the dogs and us. Sounds like a great time was had with play and walks! Dogs were happy, clean, and all supplies organized and returned. I will plan to use her services again in the future.”
“Annie & Rick took excellent care of our two dogs. The status updates and photos were much appreciated, and it was clear our dogs had a great time. I would definitely ask for their help again and recommend them to anyone else on Rover.”

About: (TWO PEOPLE USING ACCOUNT ME AND MY BF) We both been taking care of our own animals and family members since the age of 9, I love animals with a passion and I will spoil them with affection care and maybe a few treats <3 My pet care has seamlessly become an integral part of my daily routine since childhood. As a pet enthusiast, I dedicate ample time and attention to nurture and care for our furry companions. Each morning, I wake up eager to tend to their needs, starting with feeding and providing fresh water. Throughout the day, I incorporate playtime and interactive sessions to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. During midday lulls, I set aside moments to engage in bonding activities, ensuring they feel loved and cherished.
