“We needed care for our new dog and Edith was very welcoming. She had us over to do a meet and greet prior to our dog’s first visit which put us at ease. During his visit she gave us updates and photos which helped us know he was doing well and having a good time. She communicates well and has a lovely home that our dog enjoyed going to. We look forward for to using her again.”

“Michelle is amazing! She was so communicative and provided lots of pictures. Good updates and very receptive. She took the time to really listen to my dogs backstory. I knew my dog was being well taken care of and I would absolutely have her watch him again!”
“One of the best providers on Rover! Amy is reliable, professional, and we can tell she truly enjoys caring for pets. If our pup could talk we are positive he would be asking us when he can go for another visit!”
“Joan was very accommodating and sent photos of my babies everyday. They looked super happy and napped very well when they were home. Thanks so much for watching them! :)”

“Christine was super with Joey, who is a 9 month old 63 pound puppy. I was concerned about her getting along with other dogs. Christine's knowledge and experience came through and she was able to introduce Joey to new dogs successfully, and all were happy and played together. I received lots of pictures and updates which helped me to relax and have a great vacation. Would I have Christine take care of Joey again, absolutely no question about it, she did a great job.”

“Sure! Here's a thoughtful review you can leave for Ryan and Martha: --- Ryan and Martha were absolutely wonderful with Yogi! From the start, their communication was excellent — clear, prompt, and always thoughtful. They made dropoff and pickup incredibly easy and were very flexible with the timing, which we really appreciated. Throughout Yogi’s stay, they sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos that clearly showed how happy and comfortable he was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like part of the family. We would absolutely trust them with Yogi again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and communicative pet sitters.”
“Tessa did an amazing job watching Rena. She gave the best pup-dates complete with pictures and videos so we had peace of mind knowing our gal was doing ok! Tessa took extra care understanding Rena had some anxiety and gave her love, attention, and - most importantly - lots of walks and outdoor time. We can’t thank Tessa enough!”
“Ryan and his family looked after our 3 girls for a couple of nights. They took excellent care of them. Ryan sent some photos of the girls during the stay. It made it easier to leave them in a caring home. Already booked with them again for later in the year. Thank you!!”
“Wanqing was wonderful from the beginning to the end of my puppy spending time with her and her pets. She was very communicative and even sent photos and updates without me asking for them. She clearly loves animals and treats them with kindness, respect and love. I would recommend her to anyone who wanted their pets to be treated VERY well. :)”
“We felt Teddy was very well taken care of. He got lots of love, plenty of tennis ball throws, and sweet cuddles from Heather and her daughter. It felt great knowing Teddy was in such good hands while we were away.”
“I could not be more thankful for Maggie! She and her family took incredible care of Lincoln while we were out of the country. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family so I was nervous. But Maggie patiently listened and I never once worried about him after dropping him off. She sent the most detailed videos and photos with updates every day and treated him like their own. He enjoyed walks, playing with Nova, treats, chilling, and lots of snuggles. In fact he didn’t even want to leave their house when getting picked up. So nice knowing he was loved and happy!! Thank you Maggie, Seth, Tanner, and Nova!! We appreciate you SO much! Lincoln looks forward to his next visit!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager I had my childhood dog for 17 years, so I understand all the needs an older dog might have. I currently have a 5 year old Bichon/Llasa Apso mix who loves other dogs. Any dog coming into my care will always be treated like my own and given the love they deserve. I currently work from home and am a single mom, so day time care is pretty easy to fit into my day. My best days for availability are Wednesday and Thursday. I will also have a smattering of availability on the weekends I have a big fenced in yard and a 5 year old dog named Gus, who will love spending time with your dogs. There are lots of great walking paths around my neighborhood to keep your pet happy and acurve. All pets are allowed on the furniture or in bed at night but I do have crates if that is preferred.
