“Justin was great. He was very acccomodating and understanding of my unique services. He went above and beyond to make sure my upper was taken care of perfectly. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Julianne is fantastic! Responsive, attentive, and caring, she made Taco feel right at home with plenty of space to run around both inside and outside. We highly recommend Julianne for all of your fur baby’s needs!”
“Our dogs first experience with someone other than family. We are so grateful for the care she received, the chance to be with another human and her dog, and the pictures we were sent. Very reassuring to us and to our pup.”
“Rae and David were wonderful to Tommy. I’m sure he loves playing in the yard with their lovely pup Winston! I don’t worry about Tommy when he’s in their care.”
“I was able to enjoy my trip because, Dianne took such great care of my Prince. She communicated often, provided pictures and gave Prince lots of cuddles. Even Lulu and Prince became new buddies. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️”
“Chris, Erika and family made my Ellie part of their family during my 2-week trip to Africa. I could travel across the world knowing that my Ellie was in good hands. They communicated frequently and sent pictures throughout the 2 weeks. Being about 18 months old, Ellie needs to burn off a lot of energy and it was blistering hot and humid while I was gone. But they took Ellie on a good walk early every morning before the heat hit. If you want your dog to feel like they are in a home away from home, a stay with Chris, Erika and family will do just that. Thank you for your attentive care that allowed me to thoroughly enjoy my trip abroad.”
“Kolton was fantastic! He was very professional and organized and I knew I was leaving my dog in good hands! This was our first experience with Rover and it went great. Kolton called us beforehand to learn more about Nala and her schedule, feeding, treats, and medications. We were able to ask any questions and get to know more about him as well. This helped us feel so much better about her stay. He sent updates and pictures of Nala while he was watching her so we always knew how she was doing. Our pup had a blast!! Thanks Kolton!”
“Kat was very accommodating and we were very pleased with her services. It sounded like Abbey got along very well with her pets and the other dog she was sitting for that day. We were grateful that she was willing to take Abbey along with her other booking!”
About: I have had pets in the house since I was a kid. Dogs, cats, hermit crabs, rats. I’m punctual and able to adhere to your rules/guidelines concerning your pet. I’m currently retired enjoying my time at home. Will work part time in the fall. We have 2 responsible adults and a teenager in our home that can take care of any needs or playtime your pet may need. I have a fenced yard and one high energy doggie that eats twice a day. Potty breaks are always available. I have 2 gentle, loving cats that enjoy being around other people and dogs.
“Amy was amazing for our puppies!! She was easy to communicate with and even sent me pictures to update me on how they were doing!! My puppies enjoyed their weekend away!!! Would definitely recommend her!!!!”
“Caitlin was great with my little man Hank. I'm happy I chose Caitlin to board Hank. Caitlin kept me posted on his feeding and socializing while I was away, she even sent pictures.”
“Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra”
“Monty LOVED his stay! He came home so happy and calm. We had great pictures and updates throughout his stay. Jamie and her family are huge dog lovers! We look forward to using her again!”
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, I provide compassionate, attentive care that feels just like home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or a calm walk, I adapt my approach to meet each pet’s unique personality and health needs. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and ability to earn trust quickly, from both pets and their owners. I have a golden doodle of my own so caring for pets is what I do all day. He is very energetic but also loves his naps. I am a college student so during the summer i am with him 24/7 Whether caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, my top priority is creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment. I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine—feeding times, walks, play, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and follow all instructions carefully, from feeding and medication to keeping favorite toys or beds in the right spot. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, and I’m always alert to signs of stress or discomfort. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can relax and feel at ease. I keep a regular routine and make sure all pets have plenty of room to play, nap, and feel at home. Since I have a friendly Goldendoodle, pets who stay with me will also have a built-in playmate—unless they prefer solo time, in which case I provide quiet areas just for them. I send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
