“I could tell my dog had a good time because he didn’t want to leave! Normally he can’t wait to get back home when he’s been away! Thank you, Shaylonn & Richard!”

“Patty is the sweetest! She is also very patient with our 5 dogs and she really cared for them! We love that sends pictures and gives updates about what the babies are up to!”
“Saphire was great with our 2 golden retrievers! The dogs had a great time - she's great about carefully introducing them to the other dogs to make sure everyone gets along, and was great with checking in on questions and making sure the week went smooth! We'll definitely book with her again!! :)”


About: The biggest reason that I have decided to open my home, and offer pup/home sitting services is because of my inability to find a person who takes my own pups care as seriously as I do. My experience with and knowledge of dogs is pretty extensive. We are a two Frenchie family, and prior to having our babies, I raised Great Danes for more than ten years. Understanding and taking serious needs that are breed specific is SO important to me. From elevated feeding and then rest until food processes, to short, few minute long outside potty breaks in extreme heat, it is all important to me. I spent more than 5 years as the general manager of an off leash doggy daycare. I am very fortunate to have a work schedule that has me at our home after around 4pm, and all day on weekends! My couches are open to the pups lounging, and I am always willing to share my bed at night too. 🚨🚨 I do ask that you be accepting of your pup being crated whenever I am not home and at bedtime to ensure their safety. 🚨🚨 My personal pups are crated at night and whenever I leave as well. Although I work full-time normally, I leave by 730am and am typically home by 4pm each weekday evening , and all day on weekends and holidays! Our personal pups get fed twice a day, once in the morning, and once in the evening. We can accommodate your feeding schedules for your babies. Whenever we leave the house, all pups are crated. This is to ensure that all pups are safe, and that no one gets into anything unsafe while we are gone. Whenever we are home, all pups are out with us. They have dozens of toys, and have created a zoomie racetrack that stretches from one end of the house to the other. They are walked on leashes every couple of hours.

About: I grew up in a home that always had dogs and cats. As I got older, we began fostering dogs and venturing into owning more exotic animals such as hedgehogs, tortoises, mini pigs, pygmy goats, and saltwater fish. Growing up we had a dog that had seizures. Since being an adult and living on my own since 2014, I have owned a French bulldog, two toy yorkies, saltwater fish, a Persian cat (who had a seizure condition), and two standard poodles. I absolutely adore any and all animal and love learning about new species and breeds. I briefly worked for a vet's office as a vet tech in 2015 and a doggy daycare (Planet Canine) from 2012-01/2014. Since 2015 I have dog sat periodically for family and friends. I enjoy taking my poodles on long walks in our neighborhood. I have experience with administering medications for my previously ill and senior dogs such as ear drops, oral tablets and liquid, and eye drops. I am reliable, detail oriented, and a lover of all beings big and small. I am a self-proclaimed helicopter dog-mom. I start my day by caring for my dogs before I get ready for the day. Either me or my husband comes home in the middle of the day and lets them free roam and play for a little while. My 9-5 is flexible which means I can normally leave during the day at any point if and I am typically available after 5 pm most weekdays. I like to be home by 9 pm at the latest. Weekends I am normally available 9am-9pm. Fridays are normally the most flexible day for me. I have a privacy fence, and both of our gates are locked on the inside. I closely watch my dogs when they are outside. I have ample spaces to allow for crates, big and small. When I care for pets in someone else's home, I will stay outside with them while they potty and stay near them when they eat. I typically will not leave pets alone with toys unless the parents specifically ask this of me.
“Dennis is dependable and always communicates well. We love the updates he gives when our pups are there. He is very accommodating. His pups are super friendly and our dogs love to play with them in their spacious backyard. We will definitely continue to use Dennis!”

“Lindsey was AMAZING. I had to take my dad to the hospital unexpectedly and Lindsey replied super quick! She was able to watch his dog on a short notice and she sure was a lifesaver. We got frequent updates which really helped ease our mind during such a stressful time. I’d recommend her 1,000x over.”

About: I have over 20 years of experience from breeding to boarding to dog walks. Exercise is an important part of your dog's day so is love and affection. My daughter, Haleigh, and I, provide several different services to accommodate your needs. Our services can be set on daily, weekly, or on as needed basis. During our visits we come to your home and provide one-on-one time, love, and attention to your fur baby. Time can be for a leashed walk, yard play, potty time, feeding, or any combination. Please feel free to contact us with any questions, we are here to help you feel at ease. I currently work part-time Monday thru Friday. I'm off at 1:00 so have plenty of time to show your fur babies the attention they need! I have 4 children and 1 fur baby. We live in a smoke free, pet friendly home. Our gurl is spoiled rotten, as she should be 😉

“Celeste is a super sitter - 5 star plus plus. She took excellent care of our chocolate lab, a very senior member of our family who is 17+ people years old and needs a little extra help. We are very happy with the love and care shown our old girl, and have found our new sitter of choice.”
About: Iv taken care of different dogs and love playing with them. I've taken them out to walk, had them over for boarding and everday daycare. I'm currently not working and am available to give all the attention to your furry friend. Play days and walks are the best along with cuddles. I have a fenced home with plenty of yard to run and play. I have 2 dogs that are always willing to play all day.
“Baleigh was amazing with our dog, Moose! She took such great care of him over our wedding weekend, and I had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. From the pictures she sent, it was clear he was having a great time! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and we will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

About: I love to bond with pets. Dogs especially, they are like built in best friends. However, sadly I am not a fan of house cats. I work from 5am-2pm daily, and I have college on Tuesday evenings. I am free any other time. Just let me know what’s best for you. I treat them as if they were my own. Love them how they should be loved. They and friends. They have hearts too and should be treated as so.
“Brittany was an excellent dog sitter. She was very responsive from the beginning of our communications and sent me frequent pictures and videos while my dog was there. Most importantly, it is obvious how much she loves dogs and she has a unique ability to quickly bond with them. I would most definitely use her again!”

My attention to detail ensures that each pet receives personalized care, and my compassionate nature helps pets feel comfortable and loved.

I am available almost every week and have a flexible schedule. I also offer early morning drop-offs and pick-ups! I would ensure a safe and comfortable environment for pets in my home. This includes having designated areas for feeding, sleeping, and play. I would provide fresh water and appropriate food for each pet's dietary needs. Regular walks and playtime would be scheduled to keep them active and happy. I would also keep hazardous items out of reach and maintain a clean space to prevent health issues. I also have a fur baby that would provide company to your baby!
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets all my life and currently have no pets, so I would truly enjoy the opportunity to help someone out by providing loving and attentive care for their furry companions.

Sour Lake dog parents share their Rover experiences
Tawnee went above and beyond for our dog, Kaiser. He can be extremely intimidating when you first meet him, and I was honestly a little skeptical at first because Kaiser can be a lot to handle sometimes. I requested extra meet-and-greet visits before the overnight stay, and Tawnee was completely open and accommodating to that. She handled Kaiser so well and made both of us feel comfortable. This was actually the first time we’ve ever had someone stay with Kaiser while we weren’t there, and she truly exceeded my expectations. I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future, and I highly recommend her to anyone with pets who have extra needs—she’s amazing.
