“Toni is fantastic. She went over and above to make sure that our senior dog had the best care - giving her meds and lots of extra snuggles. She provided lots of updates and photos throughout our time away. We highly recommend Toni!”
“Samuel and Erica were great! I got lots of pictures and feedback. Samuel and Erica have Lana well trained as others have stated, and it’s evident. Moose settled in with them pretty quickly. Moose is small and didn’t want to play. They both learned to peacefully co-exist just as Samuel and Erica have experienced with other small pups. I highly recommend them!”

“Sabrina is great. A great communicator and very understanding about my little Jada who is a bit anti social. She took perfect care and we would love to have her look after Jada again.”

“Jessica and Jack were such nice people. They were very communicative and responded quickly to anything I wrote. They sent me photos and videos of Lupe and their daughters. Lupe seemed to be having a good time. It was the perfect environment for Lupe. They took good care of her while she was recovering from a leg injury. She seems to be doing better after her long weekend with them.”
“I booked this boarding stay last-minute, after our initial pet care plan fell through, but it really couldn’t have worked out better! Valentine and her family were so great with my pup, Rocky. They kept her safe and busy while my husband and I participated in a friend’s wedding festivities. I felt confident leaving Rocky with Valentine, and I would definitely book again if ever back in the area. She’s caring and knows what she’s doing with animals, for sure.”

“Kinsey was AMAZING SPECTACULAR SO WONDERFUL on our wedding weekend. She was so gracious and flexible, hosting not just our dog but, at various points, both our officiant's dog and our neighbor's dog as well (they all know each other and we cleared it in advance). She was communicative and kind, shared all kinds of fun photos and updates and even ferried our pup to and from our venue so he could participate in our ceremony!! She and her family will always hold a special place in our hearts for our special day and we can't recommend her enough.”

“Kayla was great! My little guy is a high-energy puppy, and it sounds like Kayla managed him very well. He seems happy, healthy and well brushed! Kayla also sent me several photos and was always super responsive to texting. Highly recommend!”
“Porkchop thoroughly enjoyed ringing in the new year with Heather and Louis. Heather is very responsive and good about sending updates and photos. The drop-off upon my return was a godsend. Louis was a great new partner in muddy crime for Porkchop to get his energy out and his appetite up (sometimes not an easy task when I am away). Will definitely book again.”


About: Along with cats and dogs, I have cared for many exotics such as reptiles, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Your pets are family and I will care for them as if they are mine. I am currently a part-time sitter as I’m also a senior in college and work as a vet tech for an emergency clinic. Due to this, my schedule is constantly changing so my calander on rover isn’t always accurate, but I try to be as flexible as I can :) Owners are guaranteed to receive multiple pictures of the their pet(s) while in my care. I will follow the instructions given and always ask the owner first before an action if unsure.

“Olivia took such great care of my girl! She made everything super easy and convenient for us. She was attentive to all of Benelli’s needs and she even sent regular updates so that I knew how she was doing. I would absolutely recommend her services!!”

“I’m so grateful to Jaqueline and Sammy for watching my dog, Banks. They sent tons of pictures and videos, making me feel at ease while he was in their care. They took him on great walking adventures and were incredibly detail-oriented with his needs. They were also so understanding of his separation anxiety, which made him feel comfortable and safe. Banks absolutely adores them. I’m beyond thankful for their kindness and care, and I’ll definitely be rebooking with them in the future!”

“Amy and her 8 Year old daughter were so loving and entertaining for our two dogs, Arlo and Otis. Both of our dogs love long walks and lots of love and enjoyed their stay with Amy and CeCe. We had a meet and greet a few days before we dropped the boys off and both dogs liked Amy and her daughter right away. Amy has a wonderful fenced in yard and close to town for great options for dog walks. We will definitely use her again on our next trip out of town.”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 16. I also grew up with 4 medium sized dogs at a time. I have always had a love for animals and love to meet other fur babies. I have been able to follow feeding instructions and if needed have followed giving medications. Just a heads up I will not be accepting bookings from June on until I am sure where I will be after college. I’m currently a senior in college with only 2 classes and 2 labs, so I will have a lot of time to spend with your pups! I have a small, fenced yard and I have one yellow lab at home that is very dog friendly. I will follow up with you anytime I arrive at your house and will provide a recap of my time with your animal. I will follow all instructions given to me ahead of time to ensure you receive the best care for your furry friend. I will treat them as if they were my own and spend so much time ensuring they enjoy there time with me!
About: I've pet sitting since I was a teenager and also worked at a pet-sitting company in Atlanta. Growing up we had birds, ducks, dogs, cats, turtles and hamsters, animals are my passion and I can't wait to meet yours! I'm currently working part-time so I have lots of free time to take care of your furr babies and make sure they're having a great time! I'm available Mo-Sun for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I have experience taking care of pets with a variety of medical, behavioral, and dietary needs. I am here to support all of your pet's needs and to make sure they feel safe. :)
About: I’ve always been an animal lover, from horses to reptiles! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and some of the others throughout. We recently lost our dog to cancer at just shy of 13 years old, and I’m currently volunteering as a dog walker at the animal shelter to help fill that void. With the limited hours available there, I thought we could try this avenue as well. I work full time, but my daughter and I would love to find a dog to walk Wednesday through Friday evenings, or weekends! We are available some weekends for dog/cat care while you’re away as well. We love walking dogs, playing fetch, petting them, and providing lots of love. We enjoy playing with cat toys, and giving them plenty of attention as well.
About: I'm a wildlife biologist and lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I've looked after pets for friends and family for years and have two beloved cats of my own. I've also volunteered at nature centers and helped care for farm animals, giving me a unique background in both domestic and wild animal care. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs extra TLC, I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine love to every visit. I work full time, so mornings before 8 am, evenings after 4pm and weekends work best for me! Within those hours, my schedule is flexible, so I’m available for daily drop-ins, walks, or extended stays. Whether it's an evening walk or feeding, or just playtime and cuddles, I’m happy to fit your pet's needs into my routine. I love for my pets and others’ pets to be spoiled and very loved in my home! If your pet is boarding at my home, I have an open yard for a dog to run around/play in, but it is not fenced in. I live close to parks and would be happy to take them on walks there as well! I have a comfortable home with plenty of comfy spaces for them to relax in as well.
“Elizabeth was amazing with Tex! I got daily updates and Tex seemed to really enjoy himself at their home. Communication was very easy from a meet and greet beforehand, to drop off, updated throughout his stay, and pick up. I highly recommend Elizabeth if you need a stress free place for your pet to stay while you’re away!”

About: I love animals of all sizes. I have over 10 years experience as a vet assistant and have also worked in boarding facilities. I can care for animals from babies to seniors. Able to handle giving medications and special needs. I work full time Mon-Fri. During the week if I dogsit the dogs go out at 6:30am, 12:30-1 lunch potty break, and then I'm home at 6pm. Free on weekends. I can board during the week some depending on how many potty breaks your baby needs while I work. Also, depending on the size or situation I may be able to board more than 2 pets at a time. I live on a small farm. I have a large fenced in yard. I have 6 small dogs of my own and one larger (50lb) dog. They are all rescues from various situations (mostly from work- vet tech). All my dogs are dog friendly except one I have named Hop. Hop doesn't go out with client dogs at all so no worries there. My other dogs are used to socializing in larger groups with my friend/coworkers dogs. I do have room to crate your dog if needed or keep separate from my dogs if needed. I have a lot of experience with dog behavior and social cues and dogs are not left playing unsupervised. My dogs are all current on vaccines, flea/tick prevention and heartworm prevention.
