“Carl was so caring and easy to work with, we’d love to have Wally stay with him again!”

“We had a great experience with LaurieBeth, and our pup Max loved her. From start to finish, everything went smoothly and we felt confident leaving him in her care. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly took the time to make sure Max was comfortable and well cared for. Most importantly, Max seemed really happy and relaxed when we picked him up, which says a lot. It’s obvious he enjoyed his time there. We didn’t have any issues at all and would absolutely trust her to watch him again in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: We have always been around with dogs and have genuine love for them. We have a beagle mix (TOTO) and he loves running and playing with other dogs! We also have experience taking care of dogs and cats for our friends. Except for running basic errands, we will be home with your pets almost 24/7. I’m currently working fully remotely from home and my husband’s work schedule is also flexible, so we will spend a lot of time with your pups! Our day starts around 8AM and we do a 30-min walk then breakfast. We have a fenced backyard and your dogs will have free access to it. We offer playtime throughout the day as well. Around 6PM we have another walk for about 40 min and then dinner. Around 11PM we do another bathroom break before bed. 1. Daily Routine -We can feed according to your schedule and dietary instructions. -We usually do two long walks (30-45 min) per day and let our dog go out to backyard a couple times or whenever he wants to.

About: I have always grown up with a dog in my home and dog sat for many friends and neighbors. Over the years, I’ve handled everything from quick neighborhood walks to 3-week dog stays, for families on vacation. Since I work from home, your dog with get attention and affection all day. I am also fairly active and would love to care for active dogs that need playtime and long walks. I’m totally comfortable with the 'serious' side of pet care; I’ve fed, bathed, and groomed plenty of dogs, and I’m experienced with administering medications or following specific vet instructions. I’d love to keep your best friend happy, and well-cared for while you’re out! I work from home and love the company of dogs! I love cuddling them and giving attention while I work. I am also an early riser so your dog will be fed and walked atleast twice a day. I am active in the evenings and would love to take active dogs for long walks or playtime. I am also experienced with social dogs and would love to take them to the dog park. Safety is my top priority because I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend with someone new. Before any stay, we'll do a Meet & Greet to ensure everyone is comfortable. Our home is fully pet-proofed, and because we work from home, your dog is under our direct supervision all day. On walks, we stick to familiar trails and always stay on-leash for security. Having cared for sick and older dogs, I’m very comfortable following strict medical schedules and vet instructions. I also keep your vet’s info and an emergency contact on hand just in case. You’ll get plenty of photo updates so you can see exactly how much fun (and napping) is happening!

About: I provide thoughtful, home-based care for dogs who thrive in a calm and structured environment. As a work-from-home sitter, I’m able to give consistent attention, supervision, and a steady routine throughout the day. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety. What sets me apart is that I keep things intentionally small and controlled. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs, and prioritize a low-stress experience with plenty of outdoor time, gentle structure, and a secure fenced yard. I also require a meet-and-greet to ensure the right fit, so every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after.I keep my care intentionally small so each dog gets consistent attention and a calm environment. Doggy care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and am able to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day.Dogs in my care are part of a calm, structured routine that includes regular outdoor time in my fenced yard, walks on nearby trails ( My fenced backyard opens directly to walking trails for easy access to outdoor time and walks) along with plenty of time to rest and relax indoors. I build my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for, making sure they get a good balance of activity, attention, and downtime. On a weekly basis, I keep things predictable and low-stress, which helps dogs settle in comfortably. I’m mindful about not overbooking, so each dog receives the time and attention they need without feeling overwhelmed. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, their care and routine remain consistent so they feel safe and at ease... When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow each dog’s feeding schedule, potty routine, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Dogs have regular access to my fenced yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor time, along with walks on nearby trails depending on their energy level. Inside the home, dogs are given a calm space to relax and are never left unsupervised for long periods since I work from home. I introduce dogs thoughtfully and only take on a small number at a time to maintain a safe and low-stress environment. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall comfort, and I communicate with owners if anything seems off. My goal is to make their stay feel predictable, safe, and as close to their home routine as possible.

“Responsive and a life saver for our last minute need. My little one had a great day with Leslie.”

“I reached out last minute, and Carla graciously welcomed Amos without hesitation. He clearly had an amazing, activity-filled day. He came home happy. It’s obvious he was well cared for and had a great time.”

Jonathan F.

“It was my first time dropping of my 14 week old Samoyed and I was so nervous! Tom is wonderful and very accommodating with the drop off/pick up times. More importantly, Enzo was a very happy camper and enjoyed his stay with Tom. Will definitely ask Tom to watch Enzo again!”

“Jennifer hosted our dog for doggy daycare. He had an absolute blast and became best friends with her and her lovely dog Sunny. Jennifer sent cute pictures and great, detailed updates. Our dog can’t wait to return!”

“Kiran and his dogs Mysti and Maya were great company for my 65 lb lab-pitt mix Dudley. Dudley would run to the door every morning waiting to go see them and return home in the evening satisfied and tired. Kiran is super friendly and considerate. I hurt my leg one evening, on my way home from work, and Kiran was kind enough to squeeze in one extra walk right before I retrieved Dudley to get him to poop so I wouldn’t have to with my bum leg. This is after he kept Dudley for a very long day. I highly recommend his services and am saving him to my « favorites » list. :) Thank you, Kiran!”

“Diba is such a nurturing person to my WALL-E. The family opened their home up with great hospitality. She kept up with daily routines, photos and interaction throughout the day. I would recommend her to anyone looking for the best service needed for your fur baby! . Thank you so much Diba. WALL-E hope to see you in the future Quiana”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a young child. My Bruno (12 lb Biewer Terrier) and my regular daycare friends will keep your pup company - as well as my two attentive and careful children (12 & 9). We will love your pet as if he/she is our own! As a teenager, I raised cockatiels and I volunteered for the Museum of Life and Sciences in Durham, NC taking care of exotic animals of all types and sizes. Now that we have a yard, I've been living my dream of having my own dog (5+ years). It turns out I am great with dogs! • I limit boarding to smaller dog breeds with the rare exception for daycare when I know the family and larger dog plays well. • I work from home, so I will be with them all day. • I have a large fenced-in backyard, where they can get their zoomies out, and go for potty breaks as needed. I go outside a lot, which brings them outside more too (they like to be wherever I am!) • If your dog likes car rides, let me know, he/she can come along for short errands and pickups to and from school. • I can watch other kinds of pets, as long as you can easily transport them to me: Birds, bunnies, etc. using my “cat” rate on Rover. Request a cat boarding and let me know about your pet. • I do not watch cats. We have allergies to them To get started, we will have a meet & greet over video or in person, and book from there. Please let me know: 1. Does your pup has any behavioral quirks to be aware? For example, he won't go potty unless he's on a walk. 2. Any special feeding instructions? 3. Any favorite games? Looking forward to meeting you! I work from home regular 9-5 hours. I take frequent breaks before, during, and after work to feed, potty and exercise our fur buddies. I'm here to let them in and out of our large backyard for frequent breaks and play time. I have a large fenced backyard, with pickets to keep smaller breeds safe. I'm constantly checking that the gates are closed. They can sleep anywhere in our house, and most are comfortable doing so without a crate. When the weather is nice, I'll work on our deck to give them more outside time (because let's face it... these velcro sweeties want to be wherever I am!)

“Always appreciate Caroline's care of Major, she's very responsive and delightful! Super appreciate her flexibility when I was running terribly late to pick him up, too!”

About: I've always been the family, friend, & neighbor go-to for pet care! I'm friendly, reliable, and I have a huge heart for furry friends. Your baby will be happy and free to roam the home all the time and play with an energetic, pup-friend (my boxer/hound rescue). Daily walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of love are guaranteed. I am comfortable administering medicine, and your pup is welcome on the furniture. Any questions just ask! I am a teacher who is home weekends and most school holidays and can pick up/drop off your pet if needed. Last minute & holiday bookings are welcome. I have a large crate and access to smaller crates if needed. Otherwise, pets are welcome to roam free indoors all day & night. I'm in a 2 bedroom, garden-style condo. with a small patio that pups can be on a lead if they like. Otherwise, we can go to a little-known dog park that is grass surface and play for an hour every day (depending on weather). In your home, I can play with your pup, feed, medicate, whatever is needed. Overnights at my home are easy with last minute bookings. Thanks for reading :)

“Melissa and Stella were perfect for my pup’s daycare needs. Lots of pictures and quick feedback when requested. Melissa was also great about asking for details during drop off. I’m looking forward to trusting her with my dog again!”

Ariadne P.

“Kelsey is an awesome host! My pup had such a good time running around and playing with her dog that it was hard to get her to leave at pickup time! Kelsey also took them out on a walk and had plenty of space for them to have fun and play.”
