“Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with. My pup was in great hands and thoroughly enjoyed his stay. I was kept up to date of their adventures with texts and photos, and never doubted that my boy was in good hands. Sarah will be my first choice in the future. Im so glad to have someone to trust and rely on to take care of my pup. Thank you so much Sarah!”


About: I have fed, cuddled, and played with many different cats and dogs that we had from childhood until now. Pets of all kinds, have always been a part of my family and I would love to be a part of yours when you need to get away! I work from home so my schedule is flexible, accomodating mornings and evenings, which is perfect to tuck your little one in or feed them breakfast. I am available to drop in for walks, feedings, or even just socialization at your descretion. Anytime of day works for me as I can schedule around your needs.
“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”

“Archie had a fantastic time at Kelsey’s! He’s a Frenchie so he fit right in with Kelsey’s dogs and was one of the pack. He had a ton of play time and cuddle time and didn’t want to leave! I would gladly have Kelsey care for Archie again.”


“My beagle came back to me a better behaved pup and also for days he woke with great anticipation of puppy playtime with other pets; he acted happier than he normally is and i didn't think that possible for such a happy dog. Viki has treated my beagle like her own and he seemed very well cared for and with a bath on pickup! Although he likes to get dirty, her home is also clean and well cared for. Thanks.”
About: Of course you want your fur baby to be treated like family while you're away. That's exactly how I treat every pet in my care -- with lots of love, attention, scratches, belly rubs, playtime, and cuddles! Your dog will also have plenty of opportunities to enjoy our fenced backyard throughout the day. I live with two other animal lovers, my mom and boyfriend, so there are always multiple people around to keep an eye on your pet, let them outside, and give them extra attention. My mom proudly acts as “Grandma” to every animal who comes through our door! My boyfriend, Jacob, is the cuddle king. Even our Sprinkles, who is normally wary of men, has absolutely adored him from the very beginning. I got my first dog when I was 11, but I loved animals long before then. My first official pet-sitting job came when I was just 12, and I've continued caring for animals ever since. I can care for puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between. I'm also experienced with administering medications to pets, both oral and injectable. I've personally experienced what it's like to leave your pets with a sitter and come away feeling disappointed, even a little heartbroken, by the level of care they received. That experience stayed with me, and it's a big part of why I approach pet sitting the way I do. I want you to feel confident that your pet is receiving the kind of loving, attentive, above-and-beyond care I would want for my own animals. You shouldn't have to worry about whether they're being cared for, getting enough attention, or being loved while you're away. Let me love on your pet when you can't, and rest assured that they're in good hands! 💜 I recently transitioned back into self-employment, working from home as a health coach, which gives me lots of flexibility in my schedule for the joys and responsibilities of caring for pets. Because I work from home, I can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. I can provide walks, backyard time, playtime, cuddles, and potty breaks throughout the day, and I can easily turn my attention to your pet whenever they need me. My flexible schedule also allows me to accommodate different routines and the individual needs of each pet, as well as work with your schedule when you're arranging drop-off and pick-up times. If your dog loves spending time outside, they'll love our fenced backyard, with plenty of grass to explore, sniff, and roll around in. We live just blocks from Carondelet Park, too, so dogs who enjoy longer walks will have the opportunity to explore the park and get some extra exercise and enrichment. Inside our home, they'll have room to enjoy both the upstairs and downstairs areas and find a comfortable spot to relax. My home office and “Grandma's” living quarters are upstairs, while my boyfriend and I share the downstairs living space. We also have a door that separates the two levels, which allows us to create a separate space for your dog when needed, whether for safety or just to give them some quiet time and a break from our own animals. When introducing a new dog to our pets, we take things gradually and don't expect everyone to become instant best friends. We allow them to get comfortable with each other's presence, supervise their interactions, and give them separate spaces whenever needed. Every dog has a different personality and comfort level, so we let their behavior guide the pace rather than forcing interaction. I always want pets in my care to have a safe, comfortable environment where they can relax and be themselves while their people are away.
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”

“Axel came back happy and healthy at the end of his stay. Ben was quick and easy to communicate with. I would definitely use Ben again for future boardings.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have helped take care of our family dogs since I was a little kid. I’ve also helped care for a few friends’ dogs, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work full time at chick fil a 5 days a week. I usually work mid shifts like 7-4, 8-5, 11-5 about 4 days a week and I always do some type of activity with my dog before I leave as well as feeding and letting him out. After I am always down to having fun with the pups! I have a fenced in backyard with one very playful, sweet pup who wants to be friends with every animal he meets! He’s very energetic so we are always going to the nearest park (which is basically right behind my house) or on a walk or playing in the yard! I also love to take the pups on a joy ride to get treats or just get some breeze!
“Champ had a great time on his staycation with Morgan and Eric. They took great care of him and gave me regular updates. I appreciated the clear communication and sweet photos!”

“Olivia was super flexible and understanding with pick up and drop off. She was really communicative and great about sending pics of my pup. Based on my pictures, I could tell my pup was being treated as if she was at home. Looking forward to leaving my Lucky in her trusting hands again!”

“Tilly was so loved and cared for, I wasn't sure she'd want to come back home with me! I was so appreciative of the communication with updated photos and videos; I'm also grated for helps with behavior modifications since my dog is a foster and still learning the ropes. Highly recommended!”

“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Shih Tzu, Miki, to the exceptional care of Mandi. From start to finish, Mandi's genuine love for animals made me feel immediately at ease. Mandi's dedication to providing the best possible care for pets is truly commendable. I was particularly impressed by the ramp she built, allowing dogs to climb into her bed. This thoughtful addition showcases her commitment to accommodating furry friends and ensuring their utmost comfort. Mandi also introduced Miki to her own adorable dog, Odie. The chemistry between them was incredible! Watching Miki and Odie play and bond was so adorable. Mandi's took the time to understand Miki's unique needs, ensuring that she received personalized care and attention. I felt at ease knowing that Mandi was looking after Miki, and it allowed me to fully enjoy my time away. I am thrilled to have found such an exceptional pet sitter, and I can confidently say that I will be using Mandi's services again in the future. Her passion for animals shines through in everything she does, and it is evident that she treats each pet as if they were her own. If you're in need of a pet sitter who goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Mandi. She is a true gem, and I am grateful for the peace of mind she provided during my absence. Thank you, Mandi, for your outstanding care and dedication to Miki. You have earned my highest recommendation, and I wish you continued success in your pet-sitting endeavors.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Patch
Ruthie and her significant other were both above and beyond great caretakers for my girl Meeka while I was away on 2 trips this month. She has multiple health issues right now, including some diarrhea that she was only just starting to improve from by the time my 2nd trip rolled around…I felt bad having to put that extra work on them but not only did they accommodate her, they helped by trying solutions that have really made a huge difference in her recovery and her even with arthritis pain management. All in all just felt very comfortable with knowing Meeka was so well cared for while I was away and that they were truly treating her like she was their own dog! Highly recommend and will be hoping to get to use them again the next time I travel!

Jori took great care of Churro during his 11-night stay. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the trip, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Churro came home safe and healthy, and it was clear he was well cared for. We’d be happy to book with Jori again and would definitely recommend her to others looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Robyn took great care of our dog Grey! They took him on bike rides, got pup cups (all with permission), sent pictures and videos while watching him. Very responsive with all communication. We have booked with her multiple times now and have had a great experience each time!
Derek was excellent! Fantastic communication, had a setup that was well suited for my dog (ramp in the backyard so my pup didn’t have to do stairs, and a big window for my pup to look out). Derek was also great about sending photos every few hours. Highly recommend!
