Michael was great with our dogs! He has a background with dog training and was able to introduce our dogs to young children and other dogs with minimal issues. And they both came home worn out! We would love to book with him again.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with a strong background in behavior science. I have professional experience working in applied behavior analysis and I am currently completing my degree in psychology, where I focus on how behavior is shaped through the environment and reinforcement. Dogs have always been a central part of my life. I currently live with three dogs, including high-drive working breeds, so I understand the importance of exercise, structure, and mental engagement. Because of my background in behavior science, I focus on positive reinforcement, clear communication, and creating calm, safe environments for dogs. Whether your dog needs a reliable walk, companionship while you are away, or someone who understands behavior and energy levels, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, engaged, and well cared for. I am especially comfortable with active breeds and dogs that need extra structure or mental stimulation. Services offered may include walks, drop-in visits, and companionship depending on your dog’s needs. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide reliable care for pets throughout the day. I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your dog’s needs. Because I manage my own schedule, I can often accommodate last-minute walks or drop-in visits as well. I provide a safe and structured environment for all pets in my care. My home has secure housing and a safely fenced yard where dogs can exercise and explore under supervision. I am attentive to each dog’s comfort level and carefully monitor interactions to ensure everyone remains calm and safe. I also maintain clean conditions by regularly disinfecting surfaces, water bowls, and common areas to help protect the health of the animals in my care.

This was our first time using Rover and Leigh was an awesome puppy sitter! We will definitely be using her again, it's nice to know our dog is well taken care of if we need to go out of town.

Our puppy had a great time! This was his first time away from us so I was nervous, but Matthew sent me pics and was very communicative. I felt confident he was in great hands. Thanks!

First time dog parent. First time Rover app user. So glad Monty & I connected with Raquel. From first point of contact, meet and greet, day one and day two of doggy care was absolutely amazing. Raquel is a genuine, authentic, dog care provider. Communication ✅. Care Expectations Met ✅. Very Responsive✅. Professional✅. Personable✅. She’s passionate about caring for dogs and it is shown through her attentiveness to the well-being of dogs while under her care. Raquel’s sitter etiquette is superb. To see her love on Monty at drop-off and pick up gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being left in good hands. To make things even better she shared updates via pics and videos throughout the day on each doggy daycare visit. Hands down, we’ll be re-booking Raquel. #RaquelROCKS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am more than happy to take care of your pet! I’m available on weekends and weekdays during the summertime for boarding and day-sitting.

Alexis was great with Bailey. We were comfortable as soon as we arrived. Usually Bailey will bark at strangers but he didn’t. He went right over to her wagging his tail. She kept me informed letting me know how he was doing and send us pics. Bailey can’t wait to go and play with Alexis again soon.

Our puppy has been going to doggy day care with Liza and it has been so great I had to give her another review! Liza has been a blessing and lifesaver for our new pup. She’s friendly, flexible, kind, and we can tell genuinely cares for our puppy. Her little girls have really grown fond of him as well, and she sends the cutes pics of their play time each visit. I know our puppy loves them because he is so excited every time we drop him off. Thank you so much to Liza and her family for caring for our little guy!

About: Update: I will not be available May 18-25, and Jun 2-14 I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.

About: Our family has had a small yorkie in our family for 20 years. Our current little one, Finn, is the best snuggle bunny. My husband and I have a special place in our warm hearts for tiny cold noses. Neighbors and friends have often relied on us to take care of their furry family members, we have also fostered. I currently make my own schedule and have a great amount of flexibility to work around your loved ones needs. I prefer to not do late night drop offs but will consider depending on your situation. We have a fenced in back yard with a locked gate, I always accompany Finn when he goes out to do his business and will do the same with your pup. We have a large crate for night time sleeping or if I should have to run a quick errand.

I like that I was able to take a tour, inside and out, of where my girls would be during daycare. The property was kept clean and well maintained. I appreciated the pictures and updates throughout the day. I had an overall very positive experience and would definitely recommend.

James was a godsend! Ours was a last minute booking due to an emergency back home so we did not have time for a meet and greet ahead. It was hard to leave our sweet girl with a stranger, but James was very reassuring and had plans to handle whatever we needed. He was great at sending us pictures and updates and we quickly realized we were in good hands. On day 2 our typically timid pup went right up to the door, tail wagging. He was great at communicating with us and very understanding when we explained variables that led to us needing flexibility with pickup time. We had a great experience being here to support our son graduating from basic training at Ft Jackson- and knowing our sweet girl was in good hands made it all the better!
