“I hired Kaylee to sit at my home with my Belgian Malinois with separation anxiety. I appreciate her quick responses thru the Rover App, and her willingness to arrive for an early morning appointment. We will definitely call Kaylee again in the near future.”

“In a sea of over priced sitters, we found a hidden gem. Not only was she reasonably priced, her personality fit right in with ours and it felt like we had known her for a long time, even though we had just met. We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Melinda treated our fur babies like family, sending regular updates with adorable photos. Melinda was also incredibly responsible with our home, leaving everything exactly as she found it. We felt completely at ease knowing Melinda was taking care of everything while we were away, and will definitely be booking her again for our next trip!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life from small breeds like a corgi mix to a border collie and from raising puppies to full adult dogs, I have always been responsible for my family pets and I absolutely LOVE dogs. I currently have one dog right now that is a rescue :) I truly love being around dogs and understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently off for summer from college as a Pre-med student in Idaho! I am always available for your furry pets at any time, whether that’s the weekend or the weekdays I am here for the full summer! I will always ensure your dog is safe, comforted, and well taken care for in your home. I treat others pets like they are my own. I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress- free as possible when you’re away! Whether this means walks, playtime, or cuddles, or simply giving them company, i’ll give them plenty of attention and love :)
“Anthony did a wonderful job caring for our two one-year-old puppies. He was very communicative and kept us updated with great photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He has a fantastic personality—friendly, reliable, and professional. We’d be happy to book with him again!”


About: Hi there! I recently moved here from a farm town in Oregon, where I grew up surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. Having lived on a farm with everything from horses and cows to emus and chickens, I developed a deep comfort level and respect for animals early on. I’ve personally owned six dogs and three cats, so I understand the unique personalities and needs of different breeds. Beyond my own pets, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends, coworkers, and managers for years. Whether your pet is a high energy pup or a shy cat, I pride myself on providing a calm, reliable, and loving environment. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am currently transitioning between roles, which means my schedule is wide open! Pet care is my primary focus right now, allowing me to provide full-time companionship, frequent walks, and a consistent routine for your fur baby. Whether they need a midday potty break or extra cuddles throughout the day, I’m available to give them my undivided attention. When I’m in my client’s home I love to focus on 'active supervision.' This means we aren't just sitting around; we’re engaging in enrichment, going for walks, and ensuring they get the mental stimulation they need. I am also very comfortable administering medications or following complex dietary instructions, ensuring your pet’s health is the top priority. I also don’t mind doing little things around the house, whether that be bringing in mail or watering plants, happy to help! (:
“It was a real comfort to have Hayley house and dog sitting for us while we were all the way across the country. She sent pictures and answered messages very quickly. She also went the extra mile and even watered plants on hot days. Most importantly, we returned to two happy and healthy dogs. Will definitely call Hayley next time we're out of town.”

“Emily was absolutely fantastic! We were home overseas for three weeks and Emily was in daily communication with photos of our beautiful fur babies loving her in every pic. Emily loved our animals as much as we do, they even slept in her room as they love human connection. We will use Emily everytime we travel. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all the way!”

I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of attention. I’m also respectful of owners’ homes and always keep things tidy while making sure pets feel relaxed, cared for, and loved while their owners are away

“Maria did amazing with Daisy and kept us updated the entire stay. She was very friendly and kind upon meeting which was reassuring! We can’t wait to book her again for our next trip.”

About: I have grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. I started watching my family friend’s and mutual’s furbabies and I love it! I’ve been caring for pets other than my own for about 3 years now. I am not working a job at the time so I am pretty open as long as I have some time in advance to clear! I feel very comfortable in going in to other people’s houses while respecting their space and caring for the animals according to their schedules. I have done this for several people before!
About: Ever since I can remember our dogs and cats have always been apart of my family. From growing up, to having a family of my own, and my now adult children. I have been caring for my daughters 3 dogs and 2 cats for the last 7 years as she and her husband travel for work. Now that they are settled down and home more, I am missing a part of my life that I loved with starting pet sitting as a "job" that will be more of a passion. I am retired, so I am available for daily check ins to all day and overnight stays to keep your furbaby company while you are away. Keeping your furbaby at home is the best option to help reduce stress while you are gone and my favorite way to keep them company and maintain their normal routine in a familiar environment.
About: I have been a devoted pet caregiver and self owner since the age of 10. I have experience training and care giving for many different type of breeds such as huskies , poodles , jack Russell’s, German shepherds, pit bulls , and more. I always have experience with cats as well and love them just as much. My passion for the genuine care of animals is immense and I would strive to give the best service always. I have been fortunate enough to take some time away from my 9-5 and have had a dire need to pick up a hobby of something I genuinely would LOVE to do. My schedule is completely open to the needs of fur babies! I have one extremely friendly and loving husky who would love to engage with other pets just as much as I would. I have a large fenced backyard for play and gates that block off any potential hazards such as a open road.
About: I’m a dedicated pet parent and small business owner running a father-and-son pet care team. We offer reliable, structured care with clear communication, personalized attention, and photo/video updates so you always know your dog is safe, comfortable, and doing well. We’re different from large, crowded kennels. We only take a limited number of dogs at a time so each pup gets real one-on-one care, not just quick check-ins. Your dog is treated like part of our family known by name, routine, and personality. I have experience with rescue dogs, dogs with PTSD or separation anxiety, and pups who need extra help with confidence, social manners, or routine-based care. I focus on calm, consistent structure while my son brings extra play, snuggles, and companionship. Together, we create a peaceful environment where dogs can relax and feel secure. Each dog’s care plan is tailored to their energy level, age, and needs. Whether your dog is high-energy, anxious, reactive, or laid-back, we keep a steady schedule of walks, potty breaks, enrichment, feeding, and rest so they feel settled and at home. You can expect dependable scheduling, fast responses, and regular updates throughout every visit or stay. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, stress-free experience for both you and your dog, while treating them the way I’d want someone to treat my own pets. I offer boarding, house sitting, daycare, dog walking, and drop-in visits with flexible options to fit your schedule. If you’re looking for a small, family-run, highly personalized alternative to traditional boarding, I’d be happy to care for your pup and welcome them into our Reliable Paws family. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, dog walking, and drop-in visits during the week and weekends. I make sure pets aren’t left alone for long periods and always get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Please note: Rover adds its own booking fee to every reservation. The rates displayed on Rover may appear higher than my actual service rates. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or visiting yours. For boarding, your dog will have a comfortable, supervised space with regular potty breaks and playtime. For walks and drop-ins, I prioritize safety, leash control, and awareness of surroundings at all times. I treat every pet like my own and provide regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing.
