“Crystal took such good care of our pup! Hoff played with Barkley and got lots of love from Crystal. Crystal had a perfect yard for the dogs to run around and we got pictures everyday. We didn't worry about Hoff at all--thank you for such a good stay!”
“Isabella is a fantastic sitter! Our dogs always look forward to staying with her and they come back happy as ever. And she makes sure to send updates which is always appreciated. We will definitely have our dogs stay with her in the future!”
“I have to say, Jenae was GREAT!!! Her communication with me was always very prompt and she was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up. My dog Xena came back super happy and relaxed. Jenae’s experience with dogs and all she does to help them made me appreciate her so much. She is a gem.”
“What a wonderful sitter. Amanda was so caring and kind to my babies all weekend. I got a lot of pictures and videos too. It made my weekend away better knowing they were in good hands.”
“We were so fortunate to find Pam and utilize her dog-sitting services (our first time to use Rover as well). It had been a while since we had boarded our two "girls", and we had a lengthy vacation in Europe planned. We connected with Pam through Rover and conducted a site visit. Great property and set-up for dog-sitting, and it was comforting to meet Pam, learn of her experience keeping pets, and were assured by her confidence and comfort level in keeping pets. While on our trip, Pam provided timely updates and photos of the girls, and even alerted us to a potential health issue with one of them. We had a great experience using Pam and highly recommend her!”
“I’m always anxious to leave my dog when I travel but Adrienne took all my worries away! She sent me updates and photos every day and treated my dog like one of her own. We will be booking with her again!”
“Our guy Cash has been to Pug Camp twice now and he absolutely loves it. I can’t thank Chelsie and her family enough for all of the love they show Cash. He made himself right at home with them and they also accepted him with open arms, literally. Not a moment goes by that I have to worry or wonder how the day is going bc I get loads of picture updates and check-ins! Their place is truly Cash’s home away from home.”
“They were absolutely amazing. Sent pictures and walked her. Feed her. They took excellent care of my fu baby. I would highly recommend and I would definitely use them again 😊”
“Krista was great! She was willing to meet prior and answered any and all questions I had. When we had a last minute change to our dog’s eye, she was more than willing to provide multiple eye drops daily. She sent pictures or videos daily to keep me updated. Would definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“The absolute BEST! Extremely nice and very caring! Sent the cutest pics of my pup! If you are needing to board your fur baby I would 1000% recommend! Thanks soo much for taking care of my pup! If we ever need to board him again you will definitely be our first choice!”
About: I have fostered over 250 amazing dogs, mostly seniors and special needs, so I have experience with most any medical or behavioral care. I have had dogs ages newborn to 16+ in my care, so I have experience with all the life stages. I have experience training dogs of all sizes, from 5 pounds to 150 pounds. I believe that my calming presence around animals set me apart to earn their trust. I am home nearly 24/7 and spend most of that with my personal pets or farm animals, so being with your pet would just be added into my routine. I have a fenced in yard. I have fostered over 250 dogs. While my small inside dogs are very friendly, I am comfortable with separating if needed using crates or gates. My inside dogs are 10 pounds and under. Pets have access to all areas of my home, with supervision.
“Evan truly went above and beyond for our German Shepherd… he was very kind and calm even when she got sick at one point. He took amazing care of her - we’re so grateful! Definitely highly recommend.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Katie! She gave us complete peace of mind while caring for our fur baby, Old Sport, our Pomapoo. We received regular updates and pictures, and Katie was always very communicative throughout the stay. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We will definitely be using her again for any future needs!”
“Best experience we could have had! He had so much fun and was loved on and walked plenty. He was so happy when I got there. Tori was so friendly. She sent me pics every day with an update and we will definitely be sending Oreo there again anytime we go anywhere!!”
“Kayla & Trevor were great with Hershey. Hershey is 13 1/2 years old and blind and they allowed her run of the house as if she were one of their pets. Will definitely use again should the need arise.”
“Sarah kept my Golden Retriever (Rocky) for almost two weeks while my family went on a long vacation. I was SO nervous about leaving him since he has never been apart from all of us even for one full day in all of his 6 years. Sarah couldn't have been better! I scheduled two short overnight stays for Rocky prior to our big trip so he could get acquainted with her family, pets, and home. He made great friends with her two dogs and fit right into their routine. Sarah sent us pictures each day and let us know that Rocky was doing great. He had so much fun playing that he obviously missed all the fun after returning home. We will definitely be taking him to Sarah's for all future vacations and any other times we need to be away from home. She is understanding, efficient, and reliable. I can't recommend her highly enough. If you're searching for someone to love and care for your fur baby while you're away, Sarah is definitely one of the best!”

Patrick was awesome for taking Whiskey last minute. I am a nervous fur baby mom. So I like a lot of pictures and updates, Patrick did communicate everyday, but sometimes later in the day. He has a sweet fur baby that Whiskey loved playing with. Patrick was very sweet and playful with my high energy Bel Mal.
