“Melissa was very responsive, forth right and welcoming to my puppy. She put my mind at ease last night when I dropped her off for an overnight stay. She’s a sweet young lady and happy to recommend her. Lots a parks around and green even through in an apartment. Excellent place.”

About: 23 years of dedication & genuine love for what I do. I've pretty much done it all except for training. Primarily grooming but also have extensive experience with walking, boarding, day care, home/vacation visits & house sits. I've been a home groomer for the past 8 years but due to allergies, need to switch modes. Over those years I regularly attended workshops & seminars to continue to educate myself & hone my craft. Including certification courses in puppy handling, senior care, proper sanitization, business compliance, skin assessment, & CPR. This only means I have been educated on these subjects, I am not an expert. As mentioned, I was a home groomer so I'll be turning my grooming room into an area for daycare/boarding. I am home based and plan to stay that way. Pets in my home will have a designated area for eating & sleeping but will have freedom to walk about for the most part. I have a large, fenced back yard with plenty of space to run & play. The yard will be the primary potty area. Walks are available for an added charge. Caring for pets in the clients home will be based on the instructions given by owner.
“Grace was a great dog sitter for us & Huey. We needed a dog sitter last minute and Grace agreed to take Huey for a long weekend. We received daily updates and photos. I definitely recommend Grace!”

“Conor and his family watched our 2 little dogs for a weekend and we’ve never been more comfortable with a place we’ve had watch them! Conor was an excellent communicator, frequently updating us with pictures and updates of our little guys just to let us know that all was well. Our little dogs were really comfortable there all weekend, and we will absolutely have Conor and his family at the top of our list for boarding next time we need help. It was a great experience sending our dogs to stay with someone so kind and trustworthy. We will be using them again soon. Highly recommend!”


“Claire was wonderful with Hazel (older dog) and Sam (older cat). This was the first time we used a pet care service and we were very fortunate to find Claire. She is thoughtful, kind, skilled with dogs and cats, and an excellent communicator. Hazel can be reactive to other dogs on walks; Claire was familiar with the ractive dogs and managed it with well. She also messaged us once a day while we were away with details and pictures. We have already booked with Claire again.”

“Darla, Greg & Shandy were great! Our dog, Goose, enjoyed her stay with them and Darla & Greg were extremely prompt with communication, sent updates on Goose's stay and were diligent gathering information/background information on Goose prior to her stay, to ensure she was set up for a great visit. We will use them to dog sit again!”

“I am delighted to provide a well-deserved five-star review for Diana who cared for Luna. She went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt loved and comfortable during her stay. Diana’s reliability and excellent communication made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch care for their beloved pets.”


About: I have grown up with pets my entire life. Growing up I had two dogs and my grandfather was a dog breeder. I often helped him care for his many dogs and the puppies. Both of my grandparents have many cats who I also helped take care of. All throughout high school I was a frequent pet sitter for many families and I currently live in an apartment with a cat. I am an animal lover through and through! I’m currently working part time with my school, this includes 4 hour shifts scattered throughout the week. I have plenty of free time outside of work to spend as much time possible with your precious companions! I have a smaller apartment with one cat to keep your babies company. I have easy access in and out of the apartment with a park nearby to get in your pets exercise, go for a nice walk, or just do his or hers business! In your home or mine I will make sure your pet is well taken care of and treated with all the care it deserves. Pets are part of our families and I will always treat them with this in mind!
“The guys took great care of Louie during his stay. He had so much fun playing with the other dogs and even got a fun trip to the park—I could tell he was happy and well cared for when I picked him up!”

About: I started pet sitting as a teenager for neighbors and family friends. Since then, I have watched all types of dogs, including senior dogs. I became a dog owner for the first time in my mid-twenties. He was an elderly beagle mix with health issues. After he passed, I grieved until I was ready to own a dog again. Then I had ten wonderful years with Shadow, a husky mix who was a stray that made his way to a rescue. He bravely fought lymphoma for 1.5 years before succumbing to the disease. Through that time, I provided medication, took him for chemotherapy, and spoiled him until he decided it was time to cross the rainbow bridge. Shadow's absence still leaves a void in my heart that is filled by caring for other people's dogs. I love all types of dogs, and have experience with small to large, young and old, as well as dogs living with various health issues. Giving dog owners the security and piece of mind knowing their furry family members are safe and sound while they are away is a responsibility that I take very seriously. My husband and I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and our backyard is fully fenced. As a dog lover himself, anyone who books with me gets their pup double the love. My full time job is permanently remote, so I am able to be at home with your dog at all times. No matter their schedule, I can meet it because I can be here to fulfill their needs. I have a fenced in yard for safety, and a dog-friendly neighborhood where your dog will feel right at home. I know every dog has different needs, so I can follow the habits you have created with them to maintain consistency. Whether that is crate training or sleeping on the couch, I will follow your instructions. I know that dogs are family, and treat them as such.
“Sarah was excellent! She sent us photos and updates of our dog Gus while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was understanding and able to care for our senior dog with special needs. Would highly recommend!”

About: I’m newer to professional pet care, but I grew up with pets and have always felt comfortable around animals. I frequently help friends with their dogs, especially with walks and basic care. It is important to give each pup calm, focused attention. With my background as a detail oriented and caring social worker, I bring reliability, patience, and genuine compassion to every dog I look after. Unfortunately, I am unable to have dogs bigger than 60lbs in my building. I work in education so I am usually home by 4pm! But it also means I am available full time during the breaks and Holidays to spend time with your doggo! During the week I work school hours but stay home for the weekend! I am a pet free household on a quiet side street. I am ready to give your pup all the love and attention. I have a fenced in entrance/small yard. I am childfree and it’s just me and my boyfriend! We both work in education and have so much time and love to give.
“Great communication with Hannah, pictures throughout Murphy's stay and she was super flexible with pick up and drop off times. Murphy also had a great time! Would definitely book again.”

“Gabriela welcomed Roxie in her home in a gentle way. Roxie is often skittish, even at home. She sent great pictures and a cute video. Her home is beautiful and the family is sweet. I felt comfortable leaving Roxie there. Gabriela lives close by us and I believe that Roxie would be happy to go back.”

“Gabriela & Richard took awesome care of my Tyson, I feel lucky to have found people who took such great care of my pup! Every picture or video they shared showed him as being completely comfortable and happy. I would highly recommend them!”

“Angelica is amazing leaving our 2 fur babies is never easy, but our 8 year old Morkie had never been anywhere else besides grandmas and she did amazing job with our boy. With our Goldendoodle he had a blast! Angelica is caring and thoughtful. I would recommend to all my friends and family members. Thank you for what you do!”

Joe and Jessica were able to help us with tricky last minute situation and made a stressful situation so much better. The minute we met Joe we knew our dogs were going to be well taken care of. We received regular updates and hilarious pictures throughout their stay. We would definitely strongly recommend Joe and Jessica and we wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

Loren is always so attentive with my pups. They seem to love her so much. Loren sends photo updates daily. She is always so great with them. It’s always a joy. She’s communicative and she replies quickly when messaged. You can tell she loves animals. My dogs love her!

This is the 2nd time I have used Tanya and she is the absolute BEST!!! She went above and beyond to watch my senior dog!! I always worry especially now that my dog is almost 14, but I don’t worry at all when my dog is at her house! She takes tons of great pictures and videos! You could tell that my dog loves it at her house!! She and her husband are the nicest people! Seriously, I can’t say enough good things about her! She should be the model of how every Rover should be!!
Christine took great care of our two dogs while we were away. We received regular updates with pictures, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Communication was always prompt and easy, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and happy. We would definitely book with her again!

Ralphie had an active staycation with Danielle - playing fetch in her fenced-in backyard, regular walks, and plenty of active time outside. I received many photos and regular updates during his 8-day stay. Danielle was extremely accommodating when my flight was delayed and we had to extend our pickup time. Highly recommend!!!

Violeta was able to accommodate a last minute booking request when we were unable to get our dog in for boarding during our spring break. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about dogs due to her experience as a veterinary technician which helped immensely since our dog has some special needs/mobility issues. She was responsive and sent pictures and videos of Scooter and her two dogs. We are grateful to Violeta for taking great care of Scooter and would highly recommend her services to our friends and family!
