“Will definitely be returning! Sent so many picture updates, played with my dogs, brushed them, spent quality time with them and always answered my messages at any time, day or night.”
“We were pretty nervous about leaving our little dog because she means so much to us, but Pattie took AMAZING care of her! From the moment we dropped her off, we could tell she was in a loving, safe, and comfortable home. Pattie kept us updated, was so thoughtful, and treated our pup like family. The sweetest moment was when our dog heard our voices and lit up—clearly she felt happy and secure the entire time! We are beyond grateful and would absolutely trust Pattie again. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares, she’s the one! 💗”
“Robert was absolutely amazing! Max can be a difficult dog for others to deal with. From asking questions prior to booking until we picked up Max the last day, Robert was so nice and easy to communicate with. Robert sent pictures and updates frequently while we were on vacation which gave us comfort knowing Max was being well taken care of and cared for. I’d definitely rebook with Robert again!!”
“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“Emily is great, my Cooper had a blast with her! She also made it a point to make something special for me for mother's day with coopers paw prints! She definitely went above and beyond with his care, we will absolutely leave Cooper with her again!”
“Anthony did an outstanding job watching my dog diego! We came in for a last minute trip with family, he updated me with photos very frequently so I felt comfortable knowing he was safe and having a good time. Highly recommend, Diego is now sound asleep on our way back home.”
“Luna LOVES going to Lauren & Kevin's. As soon as we arrived she was so excited to see them, she jumped to give them both kisses then immediately started to play with Chani. I always have piece of mind when she's with them.”
“Alisa loves her dog visitors, so they get lots of cuddles and kisses. Her house and yard are copy and safe and Alisa manages her environment in ways that make it easy for them to follow house rules, even stubborn “ “teenagers” like my pup, who will be back at Auntie Lisa’s again when I travel”
About: I've had dogs all my life. We just just put our dog down after 12 years from being raised as a puppy. Our family isn't ready for a new dog yet, but we love the company! As a teacher, my summer is dedicated to being home and active! I am looking forward to a summer filled with backyard play and plenty of attention for our guest pups. Since we’ll be home the vast majority of the time, your dog will have constant companionship. While we might head out for the occasional short day trip or camp drop-off, our schedule is primarily centered around being home, making us very flexible for drop-offs, pick-ups, and mid-day belly rubs! Your pup’s safety is our top priority! We have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under constant supervision. Our home is a family environment with three kids who are taught to be gentle and respectful with animals, so we do require that any guest dogs be kid-friendly. Inside, we have stairs, so please let us know if your pup has any mobility issues or needs assistance. We are also happy to crate your dog for meals or naps if that is what they are used to at home. Since we currently have no other pets, your dog will receive 100% of our attention and love during their stay
“Amanda and her husband were amazing with Huckleberry. She told me their house is a dog house and boy was she right! He immediately seemed comfortable there the moment we dropped him off. She gave us consistent updates throughout the stay and treated him as he was her own. He absolutely adored her and was loving all the cuddles and attention. I wouldn’t want anyone else to watch him in the future and I hope we get to utilize Amanda’s services again!”
“If you have a small dog, Beverly is unreal. My frenchie loves going to her home. She is given so much love, care and attention the entire time she is there. She has her own bed and rest area during the day with lots of toys. She never goes in a crate or cage, and plays all day long. At night Beverly lets my cookie sleep in the bed. If you are reading this go no further, Beverly provides unbelievable care. I would never consider an overnight kennel and once you try Beverly to babysit you wont either. Thank you Beverly for caring for my baby.”
“We read great reviews about Nicolle and they were not wrong our mocha baby loved her and she made us feel at peace that Mocha was in good hands. Thank you to Nicole and her family”
“Great experience! Katie was sending us photos and updates of our furr baby daily! She treated our dog-Lesha like one of her family. Absolutely recommend and will definitely rebook if we need to!”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“I am so happy to have chosen to leave my little Jazz with Tonya! Her little boys and her fur babies were a delight and were very receptive of him! When I picked him up, Tonya had him looking so good and fluffy…I could tell she had taken time to brush him🙂 She was really patient with him and I most definitely would like to book with Tonya again in the future!”
“Angelique was fantastic! I got regular updates with photos and videos, and it was crystal clear that my dog, Arlo, had a great time with her. I will be booking with her again!”
“Great sitter, Sara was very responsive to me during my trip and sent pics. My dog had a great time with Sara's dog and came home tired and happy. Definently would recommend if you need a sitter”
“Jacob was an awesome sitter. very quick to respond and sent plenty of pics we were very apprehensive being our first time using service and he helped us tremendously... would repeat 100% his dog Rambo was great with our Frenchie we have already hoped to get them together again. your fur baby will be in good hands with jacob!”
“Mrs Kerri is absolutely amazing! She’s so sweet and kind. This is was our first time leaving our puppy and she madew us feel at ease with knowing he was left in her care. I would recommend her to everyone! 5 stars isn’t enough I would give her 100 stars! ⭐️”

Fantastic! From initial meeting and communication to the final pick-up, Jake operated with a tremendous level of quality and care. He asked detailed intelligent questions before drop-off to make sure everything went smoothly, sent daily pictures and updates, walked every day, and had a great time. Most professional sitter we have ever used on Rover, will absolutely be booking again. Thanks Jake!!
Our Charlie had a wonderful time with Erin! Erin went above and beyond caring for her - especially with the additional circumstances of Charlie experiencing her first heat. We had absolutely no worries and were updated frequently with lots of photos. Will definitely look to have Erin watch Charlie again in the future!
