“Dawn was wonderful! Our two dogs stayed with her for the weekend. She has a big fenced-in backyard for playtime and couches for snuggles! We received texts and photos with updates and knew they had a nice, relaxed visit. Dawn took great care of our little ones!”
“Abby is the best dog sitter! She kept me updated on everything my dog was doing, gave him a bath, and made sure he was well-fed. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care.”
About: I have 2.5 years of experience working as a veterinarian assistant for a family-owned and operated animal hospital. Aspects of my job include restraining, handling, medicating, feeding, grooming, bathing, and caring for any pets who may board with us at the hospital. I have comfortably handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, needs, and temperaments, and I am confident in my ability to care for dogs of all life stages. My schedule is extremely flexible and I am never away from home for more than four hours any day of the week, which means plenty of time for potty breaks, playtime, and feedings. I have a fully enclosed, insulated, temperature controlled, spacious gazebo on my property surrounded by a pet-proof fenced-in playpen. The inside is divided into four sections, so I can board up to four dogs no bigger than 40lbs at one time, and each pet will have his or her own space indoors for eating and sleeping. Outside, the pets will be able to interact and play, and they will always be supervised.
“I had my first experience using Rover, and I’m so glad I did! I found Jillian, and she was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated constantly about my fur baby and was very flexible with pick-up time. I would highly recommend her!”
“Marcia was absolutely wonderful. My husband and I had our wedding and we needed someone to watch our precious boy for two days. Our dog was a rescue and abused so he’s shy and doesn’t really trust many people. Marcia was kind, loving and gave us updates of our sweet boy. We are so grateful that we did not have to worry that he would be fine. Thank you so much!”
“My dog's recent stay with Cynthia A. was a very positive experience. We had great communication and the facility is set up nicely for dogs. As a bonus, Cynthia has extensive experience with dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her.”
“Delmy and her daughter were great! They sent photos and videos constantly. Her house was clean and she even let me come and meet her before I even booked. It was very comforting knowing she wanted me to feel comfortable leaving my Remi with her. Thank you so much!”
“Highly recommended such a loving family. Sent great pictures and kept in touch several times a day. They took great care of my mischievous pet for two nights. Will always think of them for the future!”
“Jinay was awesome and her family couldn’t have been sweeter and more welcoming to Zeke. She was flexible and communicative and kept me feeling reassured that he was in the best hands while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Ann is absolutely wonderful! She was willing to do a meet and greet beforehand, sent lots of pictures and updates, followed a lot of instructions, played with and walked our dog, was flexible about our dog's needs, and had a lot of patience when our dog barked at her husband because of his beard! And what a wonderful, huge yard to play in!! Thank you so much, Ann!!!”
“This is the first time I used Denise and was very happy with her watching my dogs. They seemed happy in the pictures she sent me. They came home fine. I would definitely recommend her and use her again.”
“Brenda was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt completely at ease. She constantly kept me updated with messages, pictures, and videos, which meant so much and really helped me relax while I was away. It was so clear that my dog was being well cared for. Brenda was always taking her on walks and spending time playing with her. When I picked her up, of course my baby missed me, but I could truly tell she had formed such a loving bond with Brenda. It was obvious that my dog adored her, and that Brenda genuinely loved her right back. Finding someone you trust with your dog isn’t easy, but Brenda exceeded every expectation. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and loving sitter!”
“Melissa and Matt clearly love what they do. For the five days we were away, I frequently received happy photos of my two pups along with captions of what they were doing. This gave me great comfort and peace of mind. I will, happily, use their services again and recommend them to my friends. Thanks, Melissa and Matt! ??❤”
“We had Jennifer watch our older GSD Dolly for the first time this week. Jennifer and her husband took very good care of our girl, were very attentive to her needs. She sent pictures of a happy, smiling dog to us, which we appreciated. Looking forward to using Jennifer for a much longer stay in the near future. They are definitely dog people.”
“My Benji was in great hands! Maria took good care of him and treated him as if he were her own. She provided picture and video updates and she was very responsive. I would certainly book her again and would have no reservations recommending her to anyone who is looking for a sitter.”
“Korin watched Hunter our King Charles Cavalier over this weekend. We were without a sitter at the last minute. Korin was happy to save our weekend plans by accommodating us. She took great care of Hunter and kept us updated throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Korin for all your pet sitting needs.”

We had a wonderful experience with Kristen and would happily book with her again. She took great care of our dog and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We could tell right away how much she genuinely loves animals, and our dog was welcomed like family. She was incredibly kind and welcoming from the start. We truly appreciated her care and communication, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!
Our doggos took an instant liking to Kyla, whom from this first instance of contact was so incredibly polished and professional and really helped put us at ease. She sent is pictures for updates and answered all of our questions. We will definitely be repeats, our dogs had a superb time and hardly missed us at all
I left my dog Bruno with Dannica and Chris for a week, and they took excellent care of him. They sent regular updates and several photos every day, which made me feel comfortable knowing he was doing so well. I would definitely leave Bruno with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring dog sitters. Thank you Dannica and Chris!
