“Poppy had such a good time visiting Angela. Tons of pictures throughout my trip. Caring and compassionate for my anxious and energetic pup. Definitely recommend and will book again for future sits ❤️”


“Linda and David were absolutely wonderful to my Loki. Between the thorough updates and the welcoming environment they provide for their clients, I wasn’t worried at all while we were away.”


“Walt kept our boy, Teddi, for four days. Teddi is a 3 yo intact English Shepherd who has never spent a night away from us. Teddi is a very well behaved and friendly boy but we were a bit anxious how this would go. Walt kept us well informed on how Teddi was doing. Walt gave Teddi great care and a lot of attention. When we returned to pick up Teddi, it was obvious that he and Teddy had bonded very well. We are very pleased with the care that Walt provided and will certainly use him again.”


“Veronica is great!She truly enjoyed caring for our dog Niko and sent us photos/videos everyday. It was clear he received lots of love and playtime inside and outside of the house. Would love to have him stay again. Thanks so much!!”


“Jenny is great!! She sat our boxer Mabel and gives the same love and attention to her that we would. She worked with us on an airline delay. I highly recommend her! Plus our dog Mabel loved playing with her dog Reagan!”


“Lindsey was so amazing with Zade and he had the best time! I didn’t have to worry for a second about him being in good hands because she was so great with him! With out a doubt will use Lindsey again if needed in the future!”

“Nancye is absolutely amazing! She loved and spoiled our Josey as if he was her own. I loved that we had the opportunity to have a meet and greet before we took our trip. She took him on walks. He loves car rides and she took him to get ice cream with her getting him a pup cup. It was our 1st time leaving him with someone new and she sent us pictures and updated all along the way. Nancye has such a love for fur babies and it shows. Would definitely recommend her.”

“Joyce was an absolute pleasure to work with. My vacation was last minute, so I was extremely grateful to find the Rover app and website, but finding Joyce was even more of a godsend. I could tell right off that she loves dogs, has a passion for dog sitting, and strives to make both animals and their owners as happy as possible. She provided periodic updates, images as well as a video, and set my mind at ease. Thank you very much Joyce, I really appreciate it.”

About: I've always been around dogs. I grew up with pittbulls. I've been out of the puppy stage a long since they just recently passed. But we got a lab in March and have been loving every second of it! Well most of it 😅 I am currently working full time, but am usually off after 2pm some days is earlier some days is longer. But if it is longer I will let you know. We go to the walking trail, river, and/or dog park at least once a week. Our yard isn't fenced, but trust your dog will not be unaccompanied. If recall is good they can be let out off leash, or be kept on one, which ever your more comfortable with.

About: From playful puppies to wise old souls, I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. Every tail wag gets the love and attention it deserves love. I’m currently a grad student, but when i get home I have plenty of time with my pets. My husband also works from home, so we would be a team on Rover! I live on a secluded 65 acre farm, we also can provide fencing if needed. We also can crate your baby if needed, but our pets roam inside and outside since this land is isolated from the road.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. Family and friends trust me to take care of their pets. I’m a trustworthy person with any dog I want this to be a full time opportunity and I believe this is something I can be good at and give everyone my best In our home, they are family and I love to play, feed and take them on walks. I’m trustworthy with any dog I’m around. Thank you
