“Stacy and her family were so so so kind and loving to my dog Bella!! Bella is 19 months old so definitely still in the puppy phase and Stacy was so welcoming and loving to her! I had to go out of town for a few days and I got updates with pictures and she truly spoiled her! I can’t thank her enough for everything she did for my Bella girl. Truly amazing at what she does!!!”
“Shelley was amazing!!!! I was updated on a regular with what my dog was doing and how he was acting. She's extremely kind and gentle and we will be using her and her services again and again!!!!”
“Christopher did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs. He treated them like they were part of his family. He was communicative and flexible to our needs and we felt so confidence that our dogs were being well cared for while we were away. We will definitely be using him again in the future, and give him our highest recommendation!”
“Lisa was so great. Our usual rover was out of town, and generously referred us to Lisa! We did a meet and greet and it went great. Dropped Carolina off for our weekend trip, and she had a great time before we had to unexpectedly head back home from the airport after multiple delays causing us to miss our connecting flight and not make it out after all. Lisa responded quickly and we were able to pick up our girl on the way home from the airport. Lisa was so understanding and flexible during this stressful evening. Carolina was excited to see us just 5 hours after pick up, but we know she had a great time while she was there. Will definitely use again in the future. Lisa was so great about getting us refunded for the rest of the weekend because of the circumstances out of our control. We love Rover and gain so much ease having our girl in someone else’s home rather than being boarded at a kennel. Thank you again, Lisa!”
About: I’ll treat your dog with the kindness I treat mine. I have been fortunate to be a dog dad for seven years now and it has added more warmth to my life. I have a flexible jobs so I’m able to devote a lot of time to the wellbeing of a pet via walks and quality time. I have a friendly 7 year old corgi, named Liam. He’s one of a kind and works well with other dogs. That’s the only pet that I have.

About: I provide dependable, loving, and attentive care while treating every dog as if they were part of my own family. I understand that each pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn their individual needs. I am currently off on the weekends. I have a fulltime job during the week but have a flexible work schedule to assist with most needs. I have a fenced in backyard. And a nice neighborhood for walking dogs. I have one pet, she is a beagle and she loves other dogs.
About: I’ve cared for pets most of my life, especially dogs, and animals have always been a big part of my world. I’m currently a proud pet parent to a pug and a puggle, so I understand firsthand the daily routines, personalities, and special needs that come with caring for dogs of all kinds. I truly love animals and treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, giving you peace of mind if your pet needs extra attention. My goal is to help other pet owners feel confident knowing their animals are in caring, capable hands and to make sure every tail keeps wagging. I work full time, but my schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I’m available most mornings before work, afternoons after work, and in the evenings. I also work from home one day a week, which gives me full flexibility that day for walks and drop-ins Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities during walks and drop-in visits. I follow all care instructions closely, use secure leashes and harnesses, and stay alert to surroundings at all times. During home visits, I respect your space, ensure doors and gates are secured, and make sure your pet is safe, calm, and well cared for.
“Jenn provided a comfortable stay and excellent care to our pup during an extended stay. Despite our pup going through some emotions to start her stay, Jenn was able to support her and make her feel welcome so that she was back to her playful, snuggly self within a short time there. Jenn provided regular updates and was very responsive. We would definitely book again!”

He had such a great weekend spending time with them and playing with Linus, and came home happy and tired from all the fun.

We’re so grateful to Marta and Conor for treating him like one of their own, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!”
