“Brendan was very accommodating and responsive! Bennett was happy, tired, and honestly didn’t seem like he wanted to leave :) This was our first time using any sitter, and we were thankful to know our pup was in good hands.”


“Millie had a wonderful time at Andrea’s place. It was like home away from home for Millie. She was exhausted when she came back home. ? Andrea was prompt in sending pics and updates. Will use her again for sure.”


“Thank you Marlene! You cared for our sweet Cooper like he was your own! Even with his extra needs, diabetic and blind! He had so much fun with you. And, thank you for the continued daily updates while we were away! Your home is warm and welcoming.”


“We felt comfortable leaving Rosie to stay with Lisa. Lisa called us before drop off to let us know what to expect, and kept in touch with us while Rosie was with her. Lisa was flexible with our pick up and drop off times. Rosie seemed to enjoy her time with Lisa, we’ll definitely book again!”


“Patricia is an extraordinary dog sitter! From the moment we met her to drop off Novak, she was extremely friendly and attentive, and we could tell that we’d made the right choice for his care. She sent many photos and videos of Novak having a great time with her sweet dogs and texted updates as well. When it was time for Novak to go, she sent him off with a toy as well! If in this area again, we’d definitely board Novak with Patricia!”



“Lisa was great! I took my dog over to meet Lisa, her kids and dog prior to him staying there for an upcoming weekend. Meeting went great! She answered all questions about the process as this was my first time using Rover. My little dog was happy running around with her dog and kids. He stayed for a weekend and it went great. She was quick to respond to all communications. I would definitely recommend Lisa!!”

“Madison was so good with Bear. He had never been left without us. He was nervous at first but she updated all weekend and he did fine! I will definitely use her again!”



“Sara and Craig took care of my fur baby just like he was one of theirs.. a special shout out to their son who Deisel got attached to he put the icing on his stay... thanks again Job well done!!”


“Second time Nicole takes care of my boys and the overall experience was again excellent. PJ and Bailey had a blast and enjoy their stay at Nicole’s house as their own vacation time. I got several daily videos and pictures of my dogs playing and having fun activities. Totally recommended. Thanks Nicole!”


“Keyauna is very caring for my dog Sally. She took some pics of Sally for reporting how my dog doing while I’m on traveling. Will use her service again in future when I travel.”

About: No matter how big or small, I will show your fur baby (or babies) so much love and care! I’m a trusted neighbor and friend! I currently work full time but this could be changing soon. I work from home three days a week so I can be more hands on with you pets! I do not have a fenced in yard but there is plenty of grass where your fur baby can run! If you bring your cat here your cat will stay inside and not go outside around the stray cats! I don’t mind dogs or cats being on my furniture, if anything I welcome it!

“I can’t recommend Cora enough! She and her family welcomed Hermes with such warmth and love. Her home was the perfect cat oasis, with cozy spots, toys, and plenty of attention. We received regular updates, and when we returned, our cat was happy, calm, and well-cared for. Truly a wonderful experience—your pets will be in great hands!”


“Bonnie went above and beyond to care for our pup during the blizzard. She made sure she had warm clothing to go out for walks. She was concerned when she wasn’t using the bathroom and contacted me for updates. She is the best pup nanny!”
