“Sarah and Aaron made our little King Charles feel like the Princess she believes herself to be, and she was very happy during her 15-day stay with them. They sent regular updates showing her daily life, and they did a great job keeping up with her heart medication. Our Dani will stay with Aaron and Sarah again and again.”


“Absolutely fantastic sitter. Her and her family took amazing care of my girls. She kept me updated daily and even sent me pictures of all the adventures they had. My dogs are my only family and finding someone to care for them in my absence is very stressful. Elisa took all the stress away and showed my girls all the love I would have. Would 1000% recommend to anyone that is looking for a loving home for their fur babies. Thank you Elisa! I will be booking again soon”



“Thelma and her husband were great. She met with us beforehand to insure the dogs got along, and she followed her own common sense while caring for our dog. She was a good communicator and I felt confident that our dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and would happily use her again. Thelma is competent, professional and kind and deserves a five star Rating!”


“Evelyn was amazing! She was very accommodating. She cared for Charley as we would. Gave him lots of cuddles, walks, play time and so much more. She sent us pictures and kept us up to date with him. He loved her home and spacious fenced back yard. We would definitely seek Evelyn when we can’t bring our pup along. Thank You!”


“I cannot say enough great things about Francis! She watched my senior dog, Madi, for a week while I was on vacation. Just before I dropped her off, Madi had been scratching and developed an issue with her eye pressure and had to start eye drops. Francis welcomed her with open arms. A few days into her stay, Madi needed a follow-up vet visit, and Francis took her in and handled everything—including her meds and eye drops—with so much care and attention. Madi is also on heart meds and requires extra support, and Francis went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well looked after. She sent me daily updates and photos of her relaxing on the couch or exploring her big backyard, which gave me so much peace of mind. I knew Madi was in loving, capable hands. Francis is kind, thoughtful, and clearly has a huge heart for animals—she had a senior dog herself so she understands. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Madi stay with Francis again. You are amazing, I can’t thank you enough!”


“Stephany did a phenomenal job keeping our French Bulldog. She communicated throughout the day with pictures! She genuinely loves what she does. Highly recommend her. She has heart of gold.”


“My rescue Pom has major trust issues. Viktoryia did a great job of caring for her and gaining her trust. I would definitely recommend V. to anyone looking for a good spot for their furry friends. It’s so good to know I have a great spot for next time I need to find a Rover! Thank you Victoryia!”


About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner since childhood (5yrs old), I have a passion for providing exceptional care to our canine companions. With extensive experience in caring for dogs of all sizes, from Golden Retrievers and Labradors to Chihuahuas and Pomeranians, I am well-equipped to meet the unique needs of each furry friend. Throughout my life, I have had the pleasure of dog sitting for family and friends, and understand the importance of creating a warm and nurturing environment. My goal is to connect with your beloved pet and provide them with the enrichment and care they deserve. Whether your dog needs playtime, walks, or simply a cozy place to rest, I am committed to ensuring they feel loved and at home. I look forward to meeting you and your special companion! I have a very flexible schedule. I am available for both weekday & weekend overnight bookings. Either staying at your pets home. Or, welcoming your pet into my home (small & medium size dogs only please). Flexible with the stay length, ideally up to 1 week but I am open to longer. In my home, I offer an individualized environment without any other pets, have no personal pets. I am only accepting 1 pet at a time. Your companion will receive individual care and attention. If the dogs are siblings, I can accommodate up to 2. There are plenty of green spaces nearby for walks and playtime. I ensure that feeding, exercise and play sessions are done to your specifications. For overnight stays in my home, please provide enough food/treats and medication if applicable. If caring for pets in their own home, I will maintain their routine & environment to minimize stress. Whether, in my home or yours, I prioritize creating a safe and loving space where pets can thrive while their owners are away. I ask that you please provide me an orientation to your dog, that includes information on their feeding, potty, and medication schedule.

“Mark and Yohana were amazing. They did a great job communicating and keeping me updated. My pup seemed to have a great time with them as well”


“Cindy and Steve were the best hosts we could have asked for our pup. The yard is perfect with lots of room to run around, and we got timely updates on Ruger's status including photos and videos. I would definitely go back to them in future.”


“This was our first time leaving our mini schnauzer with someone outside of family. We had some concerns especially since our dog struggles with separation anxiety. From the beginning, Vanessa was incredibly understanding and reassuring. Most importantly, our dog Pretzel absolutely adored her and truly bonded with her in a short amount of time. Her home is clean and well-organized, and it's clear she treats every dog with the same love and care as her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Pretzel with her again!”


“Lisa and Matt are wonderful people with a beautiful fenced-in yard and a house that is set up very well for pet boarding. They have pets of their own, so our fur babies have new friends to play with! They also make a point of not boarding multiple owners' pets at the same time without asking permission first. We plan to continue utilizing their services.”


“James was awesome. He took in our Ellie and treated her as his own!! We relaxed and enjoyed our visit at the beach knowing Ellie was with James and very well taken care of. Lisa E.”


“Very responsive with booking, even with the short notice that we had. She sent multiple videos and pictures of Sophie throughout her stay. We felt extremely comfortable leaving her for the weekend and will definitely use Debbie again!”


“Yogi loved staying with Asya! She constantly sent photos and videos of my pup playing, on walks, and hanging out with her kids. They live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood that is great for walks. I will be calling Asya again in the future for more bookings!”


“We were looking for someone to leave out super high separation anxiety dog with because we've not been able to go anywhere since our other dog passed. We did a trial run over night with two people and Faith was amazing with her. So we did a M-F and she seemed like it went amazing! Faith is probably the only person we trust going forward. Would recommend 10/10!”



“I was nervous the first time I used Rover but from my first meeting with Lindsey she put me at ease. My dog Finn loved her on sight and one of my. 2 cats came right up to her. Finn went to her house to stay for 4 nights and Lindsey came daily to take care of the kitties. She even brought in the mail while we were gone. Ever day she sent pictures and text messages to let us know how they were. By the time we came home Finn had more than made himself at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Lindsey in the future.”


“Leslie was so thoughtful and attentive with our pug. She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent lots of photos. He got to spend the weekend playing in the yard with her sweet pug Patrick and we could not be happier to know he was in good hands. Will definitely book her again in the future and recommend to those looking for sitter!”

“Deborah did a fantastic job! She communicated to advise if all was going well. Was very professional and in my opinion, is an expert in dog sitting. She has several dogs and is well equipped to manage a dog. Was pleasantly surprised how easy the process was and how my Lola enjoyed the stay. Great experience and will definitely use her service again!!”
