“Kimi took wonderful care of our goldendoodle, Moose, while we went on mini vacay! Moose loves other dogs and big fenced in yards to roam-he had all that PLUS someone to give him to treats and belly rubs! So happy we found her!”
“This was my first Rover experience! Justine and Roman did a great job watching my 100 lb Giant Schnauzer (Lenny) for a few days while I stayed at an AB&B that didn't allow dogs. From the pictures they sent me, it looked like Lenny was having a good time at their home. I would book again if I am near Seneca again. Thank you.”
“Laura was excellent in every single way. Communication was fantastic, she looked out for the well-being of our pup, and she was very kind. Highly recommend and will rebook again soon.”
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Sylvie was absolutely incredible! She's a reliable, flexible, and dedicated dog sitter. My rescue dog is usually nervous around new people, but she was so calm when meeting Sylvie and staying at her house. She felt right at home and had a relaxing vacation :) I definitely would book again!”

About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
About: I am a compassionate warm hearted person. I have always adored animals and look forward to spending time with new ones. Animals are a huge part of my life and I would love to help others feel safe knowing that a true animal lover is watching over their pet. I have been away from my pet and understand the anxiety that comes from worrying about them. It brings me joy to allow you to enjoy your time away from home without worrying about that family member you left behind I have taken care of my own animals since I was a child. I have watched many of my friends animals. I will respect our arrangement, your home (if I'm taking care of your pet at your resident), and above all I will respect your pet. Why I love dog sitting I have always had a love for dogs. I have owned dogs since I was a child and have always took care of them. I have watched many friends and neighbors dogs while they were away. I look forward to watching your dog. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication given the proper instructions.

I would recommend Ann to anyone looking for a top notch dog sitter. She is a friendly, caring, reliable individual who obviously enjoys dogs as she has one senior dog of her own who gets the best of care. I appreciated Ann's quick response to my boarding request and that she was willing to invite Penny and I into her home for a detailed meet and greet. Drop off/pick up were hassle-free, and Ann sent fun, daily updates with photos. Penny hopes that the next time she needs a dog sitter, Ann will be available.
