Her dogs are adorable and they had a great time playing together. She sent us a video and a few messages to help us with OUR separation anxiety! We are so happy to have found Tina! ♥️”



“Michaela was incredible! This was our first time using Rover or anyone other than friends/family watching Maggie (as she was a rescue dog and severely abused when we got her) - she was so good with Maggie! Maggie is older (17) and needs extra love and attention and she def got that and more. We will def use Michaela again!”


About: Does your dog have a flair for the dramatics? Would your puppy enjoy long walks around the neighborhood while listening to recitations of Shakespeare's greatest works? I am a theatre professional who takes care of animals in her spare time. Your animals will be a part of my family just as any cast or crew member I work with. I like to stay active and have fun and would be the perfect companion to help watch over your fur baby for a couple of days or for a short break to play with them or take a walk. I have grown up with dogs, worked and volunteered with animal organizations, and have watched over friend's and family's dogs. No matter the canine, I am ready! I'm also a loving mom of two adorable cats

About: I have experience in pet care, including dog sitting and walking. I ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved while you’re away, providing companionship, feeding, and playtime. On walks, I prioritize safety and exercise, tailoring the pace to your dogs needs. I am a teacher so summers are very free for me. I am able to provide your dog with much needed love and care and I have a lot of time for walks and visits to the dog park! I have a very friendly dog to keep your furry friend company which also means my house is very clean pet proof! I am very organized so I will be able to keep your dogs feeding schedule on track while you are gone as well.


“I can't recommend Megan highly enough! She was the perfect fit for our energetic mini Aussie and I loved all the daily pictures and updates about what Logan was getting up to. We will definitely use Megan again!”


“Ryan was an amazing dog sitter! We have a 13 week old golden retriever. So it was our first time leaving her. He made us feel so comfortable during our vacation that our fur baby was being taken care of every minute we were away. The many pictures we got every day made it clear she was loving playing with Ryan’s dog and felt at home with his family! Communication was perfect. Response time was great. Accommodations were fantastic. We definitely will be using Ryan again for our boarding needs!!”
