“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”

“Jen was amazing with our Izzy! She kept us updated everyday on how Izzy was doing. Izzy had lots of love and attention, and exercise! Would 100% recommend Jen with the care of your furry family members.”

“From the moment I first contacted her, Yajaira's communication was exceptional. She provided a safe, attentive environment for my dog, sent me photos, gave my dog oral medicine (as requested) when she was scratching her ears. I am highly satisfied and recommend her without reservation. Will definitely use her again and steer my friends her way.”

“Addie was extremely nice and took the best care of our pups! She was very commicative and took many pictures on the daily. We will absolutely book again when we are in the area! Thank you!”

“Liliana & her husband were very good with Luigi. They both took the time during our Meet & Greet to ask questions and get to know him. Liliana sent pictures during his stay and he looked happy out on his afternoon walks.”

“Erika was absolutely amazing to board my diabetic senior cat with. He loved her and her family so much, and warmed up to them even though he prefers his alone time, it was like a mini vacation for him! I 100% will be contacting Erika again for future stays, she was extremely patient, caring, understanding and on top of everything you would hope for in a pet sitter. Thank you so much again for taking such good care of my boy!”

“Kaylee's time with Jill and her family couldn't have been more wonderful. She and they took her in as tho she were their own dog. And it was a family affair, with plenty of love from Jill and Mike, and Meghan and Alexa, their two teen-aged daughters. The frequent updates and photos were terrific, too. I could tell she was very, very happy. This was my first Rover experience, and I'm already planning for the next time Kaylee will have the pleasure of being with Jill and family--and I know I will have the peace of mind that she will be well cared-for. I would warmly recommend Jill to anyone and everyone!”

“James was fantastic! I have a relatively shy dog, but he came home super happy and clearly had a fun time with James and fam in a super compassionate, loving household. Would recommend them anytime.”

“We just got our puppy about a month ago and was very worried about what we do with him for our already planned trip! Jaylese was very responsive. We booked a meet and greet and I was already so comfortable leaving my pup with her! We received daily pictures and updates!! I am soooo happy we went with Jaylese! She will be used for our pup in the future!!! Thank you for taking great care of our pup ❤️”


About: With have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds. My experience includes daily walks, potty training, feeding, administering basic care, and providing attentive companionship. I am passionate about ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether caring for an energetic puppy, a senior dog, or an independent cat, I provide reliable, patient, and personalized care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I truly believe pets are cherished family members, and I am dedicated to making sure they feel safe, happy, and deeply cared for while their owners are away. Whether I am spending time with a playful puppy, a gentle senior dog, or an independent cat, I provide patient, dependable, and personalized care that reflects each pet’s unique personality and needs. I learned early on how special the human-animal bond can be and how important it is to understand their behaviors, emotions, and individual needs. Every pet I care for is treated as if they were my own, with plenty of affection, attention, kindness, and genuine love. As a nursing student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and loving care for your pets throughout the day. Your pup can enjoy supervised outdoor time in my fully fenced backyard, along with walks, play sessions, and lots of affection. Weekends are especially flexible since I am off from school, making it easy to accommodate boarding, drop-in visits, or extended care. My goal is to ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free home environment where pets are treated like family. My home features a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play and exercise, along with plenty of indoor space for rest, relaxation, and cuddles. I carefully follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by their owners. Pets are never left unattended outdoors, and I maintain a clean, secure environment to ensure their well-being at all times.
“Estelle looked after our pug Henry for a weekend, and the entire time we were able to relax and feel confident that he was happy and in good hands. Her home is beautiful and set up really nicely for the dogs, with a large clean fenced-in yard to play in, and lots of toys and beds for them to occupy themselves. Her dogs are sweet and made Henry right at home. Estelle regularly sent photos and updates to let us know how he was doing. He was always treated like part of the family and I think for him it was just a fun weekend with friends. I will absolutely be boarding Henry with Estelle again and I couldn't recommend her highly enough.”


“Samantha did an outstanding job, took great care of bear and bear seemed to get a huge kick out of her dogs. Sent lots of pictures, really spoiled her the entire time she stayed at her home. I will be booking her again soon!”

“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog Mylo. She is very friendly and loves animals. She kept us posted during his stay with videos, pictures, and updates on how he was doing. She also has a huge yard for our dog to enjoy. The report card at the end of his stay was super cute! Absolutely would recommend and we will definitely be booking with Elizabeth in the future!”

“Very attentive and welcoming. Amber and her family provided an excellent, loving stay at their hone for my dog while I was out of the country. Daily updates and photos were very nice. Definitely recommend and will definitely book with her again. 5++ stars!”

“Adriana updated me everyday also sent pictures on how my puppy was doing. I am very pleased with how they took care of my puppy. I will be using their services again whenever I need someone to care for my dog.”


“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”


“Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!”

“Once again we had a great experience with Bruce. Our boxer really likes him, he communicates with us regularly and maintains medication and feeding schedules per our instructions.”

“Once again, Nicole and her family provided Leo with an awesome time while we were away. We know he is in the best care when he's with them. We love the constant photos and updates! He can't wait for his next stay!”
