“Nancy was great. She gave me updates about my dog pictures and texts. If I called to check up on him, she was able to answer the phone she had toys and was very sweet. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Mirian did a great job caring for Kayli while we were away on vacation. Mirian sent a photo most days just to reassure us she was adjusting well, especially considering her vision and hearing issues. Mirian was always quick to respond to any questions we had.”
“Joan was incredible. From the moment we arrived Captain felt at home. She took him on walks. Sent us updates with pictures every few hours. We highly recommend her! We will definitely be booking her again.”
“Nicholas and his family took great care of Suzy! They sent frequent updates and pictures and gave us peace of mind she was safe and happy while we were away. Will definitely recommend and book again!”
“We are so excited to have found Cheryl! It's wonderful to know our dog will be in good hands when we have to leave her behind. Cheryl is knowledgeable, you can tell she has been working with dogs for long time. She always keeps you up to date with messages and plenty of pictures. It was obvious our dog had such a great time playing with her friend Bella. Search no more this is the one!”
“Linda was a wonderful sitter for my 1 year old Cockapoo. I was a little nervous about finding a sitter when we moved in September. Thanks to Rover and Linda I found a way to be comfortable about leaving my baby. After having a meet and greet with Linda, I was sure that I found the right person. I was happy when she advised me during the day and sent cute pictures. It made my weekend away so much better knowing my puppy was well taken care of.”
“Julie & Brian took great care of Frankie! They were very sweet and communicated how he was doing and sent the sweetest pictures. They were able to handle giving him medicine for his health issues. He came home relaxed and calm, so I know he felt safe and comfortable being with them.”
“Linda was fabulous. We had never left Joey before with someone new and he had the best time. Linda always sent updates and pictures of Joey which made me feel at ease that he was having fun. Linda also taught Joey new tricks! We will definitely book again”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Katherine and her family provided to our 10 year old goldendoodle! We loved the daily updates and photos and could rest easy knowing he was in good hands.”
“Absolutely would recommend Andressa and Alex! We left our dog with them for 8 days and could tell we was well cared for and received all the attention he needed. They are a super sweet couple that genuinely seem to love dogs and are very capable of taking care of them.”
About: I’ve taken care of and owned dogs my entire life! I’ve been a reliable dog owner and watcher for friends, family and neighbors for years. I have experience with a lot of different breeds and personalities ranging from Shih Tzu to Husky to Doodle to Aussie. I currently stay at home and am able to provide a lot of undivided attention, walks, and love for your fur baby! My schedule is flexible and I am able to board and watch your pups as needed. I have a shy mini Aussie (7) that is able to freely roam our home and will keep your pup company! Our yard is not fenced, but we are able to go on multiple walks a day if needed and enjoy our community dog park to get extra wiggles out.
“Lara was wonderful! Our first time boarding our dogs with someone we dont know and she was so helpful, reassuring, and gave regular updates! She took such good care of our babies and they were so happy on pickup day!”
“Allyssa, her husband, and their puppy Ezzy were very friendly and took good care of Dreamsicle (cat) during the 8 night stay. Allyssa provided pictures & updates throughout the whole stay. They have a nice clean home & super sweet people. Will definitely have them sit for my cat again!! Highly recommend.”
“Tamara is an excellent sitter. My shaggy had to have some meds for a torn nail. Tamara and bf went to Walmart to get the meds which I thought was awesome. I will continue with Tamara for my Shaggy and recommend her for your pets .”
