“Holly watched our dog for a few days at our home. She was excellent with our pup who sometimes is a little grumpy. We were extremely comfortable with her caring for our dog in our house. Holly provided updates and pictures to us while we were away. If we ever need a sitter again Holly will be our first choice.”
“Olivia was great! Our dogs and cat were cared for and they seemed very happy to see her through out the day. When we returned home the animals looked happy and healthy. My plants also looked happy!”
“Emily did exactly what we wanted and followed all of our instructions to take care of our 2 cats and 1 dog while we were visiting family for the holidays. She sent tons of cute pictures and communicated with us each day to make sure everything was purrfect!”
“Aramie was a perfect sitter for my clingy rambunctious girl! She took excellent care of her and the house, going above and beyond what I expected. I’m glad to have found my new dog sitter!”
“Destiny was amazing with our dogs! We have 3 dogs which can be a handful at times but she took great care of them. Put my mind at ease day 1 of our trip. Highly recommend and will be booking again in future!”
“Anne-Renee was a great communicator, and took great care of our injured boy while we had a night out. She kept us in the loop and gave us peace of mind while we were gone. I’d happily book her again.”
“Jessica was very attentive with the dogs and detail oriented. She sent me updates of the pups and took great care of them. I would definitely hire her services in the future!”
“I could not have asked for better last-minute care for my stressed out pups, than Sayla. She was punctual, professional, adored my dogs and asked all the right questions, was super honest about everything going on. She went above and beyond —several visits beforehand and extra care once settled in—and you can tell she sincerely loves dogs and their welfare and making them comfortable is her top priority. I would recommend Sayla in a heartbeat!”
“Matthew was great to our two pups. He was diligent and professional giving me updates of the dogs. He kept our house clean and organized. He took excellent care of my schnauzer that was limping. I will definitely book him again in the future!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous leaving Chase to be watched by someone he didn’t know for 5 days. By day 2 that all changed and I became very comfortable with Monique as his sitter. In fact, I am so pleased with Monique that I would highly recommend her to anyone. Monique sent me pictures and videos while I was out of town showing Chase fell in love with her and was quite fond of her. She showed a lot of attention & love which relaxed my nervousness. I know Chase was said when Monique left and he’s looking forward to next time Monique can watch him. Monique gets a 5-Star rating!!!”

“Sophia was so great with our Beau. She followed our instructions to a T, sent us updates on him a few times a day, and even let him convince her to take him on more walks than he usually gets 😂 it was so great to be on vacation and not have to worry that Beau was being taken care of with the same amount of love that we would. Beau loves her and so do we! I couldn’t recommend her enough!!!”
About: I have had 2 dogs in the household at all times since I was a baby and started dog sitting at 14. I have experience fostering dogs, boarding, training, walking and sitting. I have cared for dogs big and small, young and old and have loved them all. I am attentive to detail and give them the care they deserve. I am consistent with communication and will send updates/pictures throughout or as requested! I am currently working Wednesdays and have classes Tuesday-Friday. Friday is a very short day for me so besides one hour in the morning I am free. The best days for me are Saturday-Monday but my schedule is very flexible and I can work with you and what's best for your pups! I am a very active person so I take pups on long walks or runs (if they are up for it) multiple times a day. I am very attentive to their needs and they will always come first.
“Omg Ben was amazing!!!!! He decided to last minute rearrange his schedule, and dog sit our “zoo” and he went above and beyond our needs. Our home was left better than we left it for him, he went out of his way to do the kindest chores for us, and our dogs were so sad when he left! They didn’t only get the pleasure of spending the weekend with the dog whisperer, but definitely a forever friend for them!!! I know they’ll never forget the massage he gave them!! ❤️ I’d trust Ben with my life probably! He gave our pets massages, he was so kind to inform me about an eye watering situation one of my dogs had. Send me the sweetest pictures and videos, and I just cant begin to put into words the immaculate care and love my fur babies received by him! He is a dog whisperer. Thank you so much Ben for everything!!! Outside the dog note, he even was so nice enough to help deal with the lawn care people that showed up after we left. He is such a stellar, wholesome, human!”
“Allison was absolutely wonderful with our dogs during her overnight stay. From the moment she arrived, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. She gave them so much love and attention, kept us updated with pictures and messages, and made sure their routines were followed perfectly. When we got home, our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The house was also spotless, and she took the initiative to prepare the next day’s treats and other housekeeping! We couldn’t ask for a better sitter — responsible, kind, and truly trustworthy. We will definitely be booking Allison again!”
About: I’ve had a dog by my side since the day I was born. In fact, the only time in my entire life I haven't had a pup around was a single year during college, and that was one year too many. Dogs are a constant in my life, not just a hobby. I have a strong passion for working with disabled and special needs animals. Whether it's managing mobility issues, administering medication, or providing the extra patience required for physical or behavioral challenges, I’m fully committed to that level of care. I’m also very experienced with resource guarding and high energy breeds. I don’t just watch dogs; I work to understand their specific personality and needs so they feel safe and supported. Working from home gives me the flexibility to be truly present and attentive during the week. I am available Monday through Saturday for drop ins, dog walks, vet visits, conditioning sessions, dog transport, or love bombs. I am generally free to help out starting at 2:00 PM on weekdays and have much more open availability on Saturdays. I do not offer services on Sunday. I focus on high quality mobile care for your pups during the week. My priority is being entirely respectful of both your dog’s comfort and your home environment. I understand that every dog has a specific routine and safe space, and I make it a point to maintain that structure to keep stress levels low. You can count on me to be professional and meticulous with your property. I treat every home with the same level of care and respect I’d want for my own. Whether we are out for a walk or hanging out inside, I focus on clear communication and safety so you have total peace of mind.
About: I’m an animal lover who has owned various small and big dogs, eg Yorkies, Labs, etc., for most of my life. I’ve also owned a few indoor only cats over the years. I work from home (M-F) 95% of the time unless I’m traveling for work/holiday, which is about twice a year. I’m also available for most of the major holiday seasons. I have a home, with a large fenced in yard. My sweet Thumper, a 14 yrs., Jack Russell Terrier/Dachshund mix, recently passed on April 24, 2026. So while I no longer have any pets, I find caring for other pets helps me keep busy and continue to share my love for dogs with quality care. I take the pup(s) out for daily morning and evening walks around the neighborhood. All dogs are welcome to cuddle on the sofas and beds. When housesitting in your home, I treat and care for your home as if it was my own. This includes light housekeeping, watering the indoor/outdoor plants and other small tasks as agreed upon. My primary goal is to spend as much quality time with your pet in the comfort of their home. For boarding, my home is clean and tidy with lots of comfortable dog beds and backyard space for zoomies! There’s also a large toy box full of fun toys for your pet to take home one souvenir at their first Dogcation adventure. Check out my guest photos! Daily pictures/videos for the owners and each pet receives their own report card on their stay. I can offer 1:1 time with your fur baby. I’m very organized and flexible for any last minute changes to drop-off/pickup times.

Katie was great with Dunkin. I think he really loved the individual attention. I also think he really enjoyed his staycation. Katie kept us up to date every day and sent Dunkin pics. It is much easier to enjoy our mini vacations when I know Dunkin is well cared for. I would definitely use Katie again.
Sophia was so great with our Beau. She followed our instructions to a T, sent us updates on him a few times a day, and even let him convince her to take him on more walks than he usually gets 😂 it was so great to be on vacation and not have to worry that Beau was being taken care of with the same amount of love that we would. Beau loves her and so do we! I couldn’t recommend her enough!!!
Jessica was great with our two little dogs! They were fed on time, taken out for plenty of time outside, played with, and crated properly at the end of the night. She was very good with my more "standoffish" dog and bonded well with her. We received plenty of pictures letting us know that they were happy and well cared for. Jessica was also very communicative to us, updating us about our dogs' status every few hours. It gave us a lot of peace of mind to know that there was someone doing such a great job caring for them. We would absolutely book with Jessica again if we need another dog-sitter in the future.
This is the first time we have used Jen for dog sitting and we were very pleased. She sent us photos of Dunkin throughout the week and he looked very relaxed. If she had any questions about Dunkin's care and/or the house, she reached out and texted me. Jen made this a very relaxing vacation.
Toni was amazing with my pup. She was willing to take this booking last minute and worked with me through a difficult time. She made sure Zoe was eating as she is adjusting to her new home. I let her know some of my concerns with Zoe and she was very understanding and made sure to look out for things like other dogs on walks. I will definitely be asking her to help me out again in the near future.
