“Elissa is a true professional! She’s organized, has attention to detail, and most importantly reliable. She sent us thorough updates after each drop in visit with pictures that put our minds at ease knowing our babies were in good hands. She went above and beyond by doing stimulation activities with the pups at each visit, brought our mail in, and was willing to adjust our finicky AC throughout the day to meet the dogs needs. Dax and Riley will definitely request her services again!”
“Emily did a great job caring for our 2 cats while we were out of town. Our younger cat has less experience being left alone and was a little stressed. Emily was so good to him and gave him extra attention. She was great about reaching out with questions and kept us updated with the best photos. We look forward to booking with her for our upcoming trips next year!”
“This was our first time using rover and we would like to thank Jessica K for being so good to the dogs. We were very nervous at first due to hearing bad reviews about rover but Jessica made sure were comfortable and the dogs immediately like her when she came for meet and greet. Throughout our trip Jessica sent photos of the boys to us and that made us relax on our vacation. We will definitely book Jessica again. Thank you again for taking care of the dogs and making sure we didn’t have to worry about them on our trip. We appreciate you.”
“Provided the best service possible. My yorkies can get into the most trouble, but she accommodated them with the best care. I recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a reliable sitter”
“If you're in need of a dependable dog sitter for drop-in visits, I highly recommend Francesca. From my personal experience, they stand out as an exceptional caregiver who genuinely understands the needs of both pets and their owners. Francesca is punctual, reliable, and communicates effectively. During their visits, they not only ensure that all of the basic needs are met—like feeding, refreshing water, and taking your dog out for a bathroom break—but they also spend quality time playing with and comforting your dog. This attention goes a long way in keeping your pet happy and relaxed while you're away. The updates they provide after each visit are detailed and often accompanied by photos or videos, which is incredibly reassuring when you're away from your beloved pet. Francesca's approach is professional yet warm, making them a trusted companion for your dog. Whether it's a last-minute emergency or regular scheduled visits, Francesca consistently delivers high-quality care. They have earned my trust and gratitude, and I'm confident they will do the same for any pet owner.”

“Emily was awesome! She did such a great job taking care of our precious kitty. Our kitty warmed up to her instantly and I know appreciated the company while we were away.

She is very communicative, sweet, and I would book her again in heartbeat next time we go out of town.”

About: I have experience with animals of all sorts; such as cats, dogs, hamsters, bunnies, Guinea pigs and fish. I’ve raised animals nearly all my life and have experience watching pets for friends. I also have experience attending and graduating a veterinary technician school program. I currently work full time Monday-Friday. I do live on base, so I am able to do multiple check ins and potty breaks throughout the day I no longer accept un-neutered dogs. Please do not request services if your male dog is not neutered. Photo/video updates will be given throughout the stay. I can crate your dog(s) if needed. I can also take them to the dog park at my apartment complex if needed. I do have a small child that has experience with pets and loves to cuddle with them.
About: I am a very trustworthy individual that will take the absolute best care of your little furry friend. I have never met a dog that didn't love me. I have always had a family dog and always was responsible for caring for it, whether that was feeding it, bathing it, walking it, or even taking it the groomers. I will provide excellent care for your furry children. I am willing to accommodate to any needs your dogs have. I will care for them like they are my own. No dog is too big for me, I love dogs of all sizes and breeds! I am flexible with my times and days. I am also available on the weekends every weekend and even on the holidays.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals for about 18 years. We have always had animals since I was born, I’m a stay at home mother so I’m home 24/7 for your fur babies! From friends, to neighbors I’m always their go to fur sitter. They depend on me when it comes to bathes, dog walks, feeding, daily exercise and daily fun.

I have a fenced in yard that they would be able to use daily! I also have other areas for any different animals as well, we have a farm with 18 acres so there is so much room and trails on the property for walking !
“Jamey has been really great with my dog Roscoe who can be very fearful and anxious about strangers/strange dogs/strange objects. She is always very thorough in letting me know how he does and goes above and beyond to take care of him.”
