“Carly was an excellent communicator. She took lots of photos of the pets and wrote up a detailed account of her visit. She asked good questions at our meet and greet which gave me confidence in that she knows what she is doing.”


“Jessica watched our pets for the 3rd time. She’s so responsible, caring and communicative. She even filled us in about the winter weather conditions and brought in a package. You’ll love her!”


“This was the first time we used Rover. We were very pleased with Cari’s care for our little OHSO. We appreciated the daily photos and the attention Cari gave her. We will definitely be using Rover again and asking for Cari”


About: I have owned and bred South African Mastiffs and American Bully’s for almost 30 years. In that time the experience and knowledge garnered is unmeasurable. From training to diet to health to temperament to pack dynamics I am your go to guy. Experience matters…. I am up at the crack of dawn taking care of our own animals so that I can have the whole day and night to take care of yours…ALL HOURS ARE AVAILABLE FOR YOUR PETS I have huge(100 x 30) fenced in dog runs for your animals to play all day when weather permits. I have kennels in a climate controlled garage and shed as well as crates inside the house. I want your dog outside playing but know the weather can get tricky and i am ready to deal with it.

About: People often say I have a way with animals. They always seem drawn to me immediately, even when they are wary of others. I feel honored that animals feel this way about me because I feel the same about them! I have cared for many dogs of all sizes as well as owned cats. I have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand that has many disabled dogs as well as fostered cats/kittens here at home. I am an empty nester and would love to care for your four legged family members while you are away. Although I will never replace you, I can provide love and safety until you return (and probably some treats and adventures too!) I'm currently not working and can dedicate my time to pet/house sitting and care. As you can see from my photo gallery, I love all animals and have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand, fostered kittens at home, and have seen very cool animals in the wild and at animal rescues/sanctuaries around the world. (I always vet them to make sure they are ethical and doing legit work) I have a large fenced yard and indoor space for cats or dogs. We have plenty of shade and are also willing to take pets with us on outings. I live with my husband and son and they also love and respect animals. As far as caring for pets at someone else's home, I can stay at your house or check in as often as needed. I will play with them, feed them, bathe them, take them places (if requested) and give them love. I know they miss their people and its not the same without you, but I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable.

About: I love animals! I have been around them forever, and in school studying to become a Veterinary Technician :) I am always open for play dates!

I am very attentive and will make sure your pet is cared for and safe. Whether they are high energy and need more play time, or animals who just need some extra TLC.

“Majesty was extremely responsive and a great resource for an admittedly last minute request for a pop in to let our dogs out while we were at a Christmas party. I felt that our house instructions were read and acknowledged thoroughly, and majesty was communicative and reliable about showing up on time. We’ll definitely hire majesty again.”


About: I have always loved animals and cared for lots of other people’s dogs, cats and horses as a kid and young adult before FINALLY having my own dog, Yuba, who is now 7 and loves welcoming new dog friends to his home. We are on 6 acres (2 acres fully fenced around the house) where we raise vegetables, sheep, goats and chickens. Your dog will get to roam, lounge, play and dig to their heart’s content. I can also take them to the park/on hikes I’m a stay at home mom so I’m mostly home with baby and doing farm chores/housework. If I have to run an errand I can crate your dog, leave them in the house or take them with me. I have a large fenced yard and a friendly 60 lb bull dog mix. If I’m feeding your dog I will feed them each in their own space to avoid any tension. As this is a working farm, your dog may learn about electric fences the hard way. They only need to learn once. We also have a bee hive but dogs generally know to steer clear of it.

About: Since I was a child, I have been helping my family and friends pet sit and take care of their dogs! More recently, I help take care of my roommates dog, whenever my roommate is working or out of town! I love to learn all about dogs and figure out how to ensure they live life to the fullest! I currently have a very open schedule! So I can be here for you and your pets pretty much whenever! I am able to work with your own schedule. I will make sure to take all the necessary precautions to ensure your pet is safe and happy! I will try my hardest to accommodate your pets needs as well as your own! If I feel as if I cannot give the best care possible, I will let you know beforehand.

About: I have had an array of pets my entire life. I am a true animal lover! I even grew up breeding, training and showing dogs with my Mom. Currently I have 9 fur babies who are my best companions. They love new friends, are up for new adventures and are very sweet and social butterflies. I would love to care for your well mannered fur baby while you are away or just need a day here and there for walks, etc. Note: For boarding in our home we require your fur baby is well mannered, potty trained and gets along with both cats and other dogs. My schedule is pretty flexible most of the time and I enjoy being home with all the fur babies! My home is very spacious and fur baby friendly! I have a large safe open area for daytime play as well as plenty of room for cozy cuddles at bedtime. I typically allow all fur babies on couches and beds as well.

About: I have experience working about a year as a vet assistant/tech at a 24 hour ER hospital, know how to preform CPR on dogs. I currently work at a pet salon as a receptionist/bather, I also live across the street from my work which makes my lunch break an easy potty break for your pets. I am 3 blocks up from Henrysbeach which is a beach that allows dogs on the beach before 9am and after 6pm, I walk the beach just about everyday, and if too sandy can give them a bath at the local wash located in the parking lot. Please leave me a message to set up a meet and greet! I look forward to meeting you and your baby ! :)

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid, and even had the opportunity to volunteer at a boarding place when I was 8 where I got to play with, help train and take care of the dogs that came through. I’ve being pet sitting for about 3 years now for friends, neighbors, and strangers I’ve met through others I have previously pet sat for. I’m currently a full time college student and have been needing some extra money to help me get through, so I thought this would be a perfect fit! I have a large fenced yard with two dogs and two cats who my family and I love dearly. One of our cats was actually a pregnant stray who we brought in, and had a litter of 7 kittens!

About: Hi my name is Micaela! I am a huge animal lover, they have always been a big part of my life. I've had all kinds of pets in my life from dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, birds, fish, and horses. I currently have three dogs living at my house right now there for I do not plan on hosting any pets at my house unless they are a reptile or fish. A typical day would include some cuddles and playing followed by some light training to see what I'm working with then hopefully a nice long hike or walk ending with a bath and some relaxation. This can also be adjusted and modified to your preferences. I can reassure you that your pet will get amazing care and attention under my supervision. Like I said I love pets(all shpea and sizes)!

We also have a horse, which she has helped to groom, feed, and blanket when we're away.”
