“Kasey and Adam were wonderful with our dog Cooper. I contacted them last minute and they were very accommodating. Their property is gorgeous and a dog paradise. Kasey sent me pictures and videos every evening of Coopers stay. I knew Cooper was in great loving hands. I will definitely be using Kasey and Adam in the future and I highly recommend them!”
“Kelli was able to accommodate a last minute request to watch Caezar. She sent pictures and updates through the day. He seemed to have a great time and was tired out by end of day, he slept so well! I would recommend her and will use her again.”

“Marina has taken care of my fluffy princess a few times, and she absolutely loves her! She is amazing with animals and always makes sure my dog feels comfortable and at home. She keeps me updated and communicates with me frequently, which gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend Marina and will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Mikayla took care of my girl Precious for 2 days. Precious has had 2 other sitters in the past and they both moved to another state. I was concerned about Precious going from one sitter to another, but Mikayla made me feel comfortable. Precious had a blast. She was so worn out by the time she got home that she slept for most of the day and 1/2 of the next day. I am delighted and pleased with Mikayla as a person and sitter. She sent me a few updates and pictures,also. We decided that Mikayla will be Precious permanent sitter, God willing. I'm comfortable and relaxed with Mikayla. Precious took to her right away. I couldn't be more pleased with this connection.”

About: I have always grown up with dogs and now have one of my own. I am not a dog trainer, but I do my best to make sure my dog is well-behaved and a great pup to be around and would love to do the same for yours! I took a break on Rover for a few years due to health issues, but I am back now and ready to help you care for your fur baby! I make sure to always do my best to keep my dogs safe while walking- this includes proper leash usage and giving space to other walkers. My life revolves around dogs, with daily walks for my own pups, playtime, and loving on other dogs whenever I can. I truly love spending time with dogs as much as I can! Dogs staying in my home are treated as my own dogs- they will receive a lot of outdoor time, treats, and cuddles. I have one senior dog of my own, so a meet and greet beforehand would be preferred.

“Patricia did an awesome job with our dog, always keeping us informed about how he was doing and sending us pictures, she was patient with our dog and flexible with all the arrangements. Her house is super clean and organized.”

“Jacquelyn treated Apollo and Bubba like they were her own fur babies. She provided constant updates, let them roam freely, and had a good system with introducing other dogs and letting them settle. Apollo and Bubba loved being around her and seemed comfortable and happy. Definitely will use her again.”

“Ashley and her family were absolutely wonderful! Jager had a great time and made a friend while I was out of town. Will definitely choose her again the next time I’m away!”

“This was our dogs first stay with Waddell and it was so much more that we ever expected. It's like a resort for your dog. Please give him a try next time you need to board your pet. You' ll be glad you did. Thanks Waddell for taking such good care of Boba.”

“Rena P provided exceptional care for my dog. She is incredibly caring, energetic, and professional. We received consistent updates and photos throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. It’s rare to find someone you trust implicitly with your pet, but Rena P is definitely that person!"”


“Cynthia was welcoming and kept in contact with me the entire time Koko was with her. I am a new puppy grandma and was anxious about leaving Koko. Cynthia willingly met with us on the Sunday before drop off to ensure she was a right fit for Koko. My only concern was that she has a large dog in the home, however she assured me that the dog would not have contact with Koko. When I picked Koko up, she was well fed and happy. I would recommend Cynthia as a sitter or your furry family member.”

“Emily was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond for my pups. She gave plenty of updates and took the best care of our boys. She was super accommodating and I absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a good Dogsitter.”

“Rachel was great! My dog loved her two pups and she sent tons of pictures when I was away. Was so great to know he was taken care of while on vacation. Would definitely use her again!”

“Ashlynn & co. are simply brilliant. They are: - proactive - well organized & super tidy - courteous & professional - willing to work with a client, within reason, and - parent(s) of their own fine brood of furbabies.🐶🐾🥰 I highly recommend Ashlynn’s services.👍🏾👍🏾”

“Happy to have had Ashley watch our dog. Glad our dog got to play with her kids. Out of pure selfishness, we hate to see her move out of the area in a few months. 5 stars, highly recommend. Thank you Ashley!”
