“Kayce was exceptional, from communicating with me about pick up and drop off to keeping me updated with photos and messages. We felt our dog Dream was well taken care of and loved during her stay. And when the weather was rainy outside and our dog got wet, Kayce washed her outfit and gave her a bath. Above and beyond service that we greatly appreciate! We recommend her to anyone and will be a repeat client in the future!”
“Abby was accommodating for a meet and greet, which I greatly appreciated; Oliver gets scared when I drop her off to stay with a stranger. Abby provided daily pictures and updates on how Oliver was doing and she came back very happy. I would use Abby again to pet sit.”
“Dylan and Alex were amazing! They took excellent care of our pup while we’re were out of town for a week. We got daily updates and pictures and any question we had was answered within minutes. Will definitely book with this sitter again and highly recommend.”
“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”
“Christine and Nick once again provided excellent care for my dog while we were on a trip. They were flexible with changes in schedule, provided frequent pics and updates about Mae, and are friendly and responsive.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I’m a responsible, patient, and attentive person who understands how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease while they’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m comfortable following specific routines or instructions. I will treat your pet with love, respect, and care—just like family. 🐾💛 I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected and worry-free. I work from home running my small business, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. The only times I step out are briefly to drop off and pick up my daughter from school. Because of this, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and walks, with a flexible schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet will feel at home. I always prioritize their comfort and well-being, following any specific routines, feeding schedules, or instructions you provide. I supervise pets closely, keep a clean and secure space, and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for at all times. I’m also happy to send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and attention as my own. 🐾💛
“Kendra is the best! Yasha loves her and Gizmo and lights up whenever I tell her she is going to see them. She is personable and treats my baby like her own!”
“Very professional and practical. The communication was punctual and timely. I was very pleased to see our dog having such a lovely time during my time away. Highly recommend Anita for your Rover needs.”
“Marshmallow had an amazing time! He didn’t want to leave when we came to get him. He was very tired when we got home and was the quietness he’s been, which is saying something for a 4 month old puppy!! Will definitely be coming back soon.”
“Kelsey is very flexible and responsive. My dog looked sad to leave! Oddly enough, we are excited to drop our dog off for our next vacation because we knot she'll have a great time. We highly recommend Kelsey!”
“Amy and Grant are wonderful. They were welcoming and flexible with Ollie’s needs, especially as their own pup was recovering from an injury. They have a nice big yard for play, communicated regularly, and it was obvious they cared to make Ollie’s stay comfortable for him and their family.”
“Could not speak more highly of her! Took excellent care of my pets and even took one to the emergency vet when she broke a tooth (known rock chewer). Would not trust anyone else”
“Lucky did a wonderful job watching our 2 pups for a week long vacation. We received daily updates with pictures of all of the fun they were having...the back yard is large which is a bonus. We appreciate the genuine kindness and care that was shown to us and our dogs. Thank you lucky!”
“We left our doggie with Ari while traveling for two weeks and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after him. Our special boy is a senior Schnoodle that we rescued last year from a breeder situation gone really bad. Ari and her family welcomed him with open arms and treated him like he was one of the family. She sent daily updates and we thought our boy may not want to come home after seeing how much fun he was having in the photos. Also, he made a new best friend with the family dog Apollo. I would recommend Ari to anyone that is looking for a home-away-from home for their fur babies.”
“Madelyn took excellent care of my dog Link and provided me with consistent updates so that I knew he was in good hands. I chose her to board him while I was away for the holidays, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to do the same. I could tell he was treated as if she was his own. Thank you!”
“This was the first time we have ever used a sitter for Dough. I was hesitant at first but Jay definitely helped cap my insecurities. The communication was top tier! The random pictures eased my mind. When we picked him up he didn't want to leave lol. He tried to go back to the door. Needless to say, we will be back! Thanks so much for hosting Dough! We appreciate you!”
“Jax was well taken care of. I almost thought he wasn’t going to want to come home he was having so much fun. I will definitely use them again in the future!”

Alison took exceptional care of my puppy, Rocky. She was incredibly responsive, answered all of my questions promptly, and kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos throughout his stay. I was initially a bit nervous about how Rocky would interact with a larger dog, as he has had negative experiences with bigger dogs in the past. However, Alison’s German Shepherd was one of the calmest, most well-behaved, and patient dogs I’ve ever met. Thanks to that gentle temperament, Rocky quickly felt safe and comfortable, and before long, they became best friends. I highly recommend Alison to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter. She also has a spacious, fenced-in yard where Rocky could run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
We had a great experience with our dog sitter. He took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated, and made sure everything went smoothly while we were away. It was clear that he genuinely cared and was attentive to our dog’s needs. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pet was in good hands. We will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. 🐾
This is the first time I have used a sitter for my pups and the experience was amazing because of Courtney and Lilly! I would recommend them to anyone wanting to find a sitter in the area regardless if they have used sitters before or not. They were great overall and even sent updates daily on how they were doing! They will be our go-to anytime we need a sitter moving forward!
Sara and Jakob were great with Kingsley. They seem to really know animals and how to handle them as well. We needed someone who will provide just the right amount of play and rest for Kingsley as he is a Big Energetic puppy. Sara provided pictures and videos daily and let me know Kingsley's schedule everyday at "winter camp" with her own doggies lol. Two days before the end of our boarding period, I asked if they would give Kingsley a bath at extra cost and they happily said yes even though it was kind of last minute and Kingsley is a big dog! Kingsley came back very clean and happy. We felt good during our time away and was able to enjoy our trip knowing that Kingsley was being taken care of. We are definitely going to take Kingsley to Sara again the next time we are away! Thanks guys!
When I say Angel, I mean Angel. I was all the way across the Atlantic when the person I trusted to keep our fur-baby was not able to care for him properly. We were really contemplating returning home. Rover has held me before; but not like this. It was 4:30 a.m. in the morning when I DESPERATELY reached out to several providers. I don't know why but Taijah responded almost immediately. After a few text messages back and forth, she agreed to pick Mylo up from the house and board him. She picked him up by 8 the same morning, and when my flight came in late, she kept him for us. Her calm spirit, her professionalism, and her bond with Mylo, allowed us to enjoy the rest of our stay knowing he was in good hands. She sent photos, kept me updated and it almost made me jealous to see him so comfortable with her after just meeting her. I am SO grateful and so blessed to have found her at such a critical time. She allowed Mylo to snuggle with her and I believe that allowed him to recover. She will forever be my go to. I thank Rover so much for this service...but most of all I thank Taijah for taking such good care of our baby and coming through in a traumatic clutch.
