“Aneice was great! She kept us updated and kept our Bubba boy happy. She even sent us home with the cutest little treat bag! We would definitely book with her again!”


“My pup has an amazing time with Mia and her husband! This is my first time using the Rover app and I would definitely recommend and use Mia’s services again in future! I was given up to date information every few hours on my boy without needing to ask, which really comforted me. It’s safe to say that Copper had a blast because he made himself at quite home with the other dogs minutes to our arrival at her home. ?☺️”


“Laura was amazing! She provided pictures and updates on my girl Bella. She treated her so very well and she was a happy pup, I wasnt sure if she would be coming home with me at pickup. I will definitely be a return customer.”


“Chandra is the PERFECT sitter for my Pomeranian. We have used her a couple times now and my pup runs up to the door when we drop her off. Chandra sends lots of photos and checks in with me often.”


“Won't leave my dog with anyone else! My dog defintely thinks this is her 2nd family. My husband jokes that if we both die that our dog will go to Jason and Bridget 😅”


“Tiffany is wonderful!! Her and her family are so sweet and attentive. This was my first time leaving my puppy with anyone and she sent so many photos and updates to ensure I was in the loop and comfortable. I’d trust her with my dog anytime ◡̈”


“Emily was wonderful! She made it very comfortable to leave our dog with her. We knew Stella would be well taken care of with her. If we are ever that way again we would definitely use Emily.”


“Stacey took incredible care of our Frenchie Gibby. She was amazing at communicating, sending updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing. He got lots of walks and to play at the dog park. We were completely at ease knowing he was being looked after and loved just like he would be at home. We are so happy to have found Stacey and would recommend her to anyone and would definitely leave Gibby with her again.”


“Cassie and her family were absolutely amazing to my Zoë! I got daily updates with pictures and videos that made me feel so comforted while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone! Their dog, Dublin, was also the best playmate for my girl. The pups got along great and I know she was so so happy during her stay. Cassie was also very flexible while I had multiple flight delays and kept Zoë safe and happy until I could get there. I’d book with this lovely family again in a heartbeat☺️”


“Sidney was amazing. We were gone two weeks. Mitch is happy and healthy. What’s amazing is she dropped him off at our home soon after we arrived so we didn’t have to go back out. . She sent lots of updates to include pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her and plan to book with her again in the future.”


About: Animals have been my passion for as long as I can remember. I’m a proud animal owner. I have three wonderful cats. I’ve fostered, sat for, and loved many animals over the years—including cats and dogs both young and old. I truly understand the bond we share with our pets. As an experienced foster caregiver and seasoned sitter (from age 12), I know how hard it is to leave your animals behind—and how important it is to trust the person caring for them. Whether it’s dogs or cats, playtime or meds, cuddles or cleanup, I treat every animal like family. You can count on me for reliable care and a clean, happy space every time. I don’t work outside the home—I’m a full-time homemaker, mom (my son is 14 and loves animals too!), wife and part time student. Balancing these roles has made me highly organized and dependable. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent, thoughtful care to pets. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I genuinely enjoy the companionship, purpose, and joy animals bring to my life. In our home, pet care is rooted in love, health, and safety. I follow strict routines for my own cats, including special diets, medication for asthma, and vet-guided feeding schedules. I do this because I want them to live long, happy lives—and I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. I’m happy to follow your pet’s unique routine, dietary needs, or medical instructions. You’ll receive regular photo updates, clean water every day and litter/potty care, and check-ins based on your preferences. While I (Sarah) am the primary caregiver, my partner Dareld is a verified sitter and can step in if needed to ensure your pet is always safe and cared for.

“Elise did such a good job with my puppy! Our cute little furball came home happy and very well loved. Not only did her kids give her lots of attention (which is just like home), but our puppy got lots of interaction with their dog too, which was really helpful for her socializing. We knew she was in good hands! And as an added perk, Elise even sent a picture and video of our puppy playing in the snow. Too cute! Thank you, Elise! We will definitely be returning!”


“Kimmie is amazing! We were worried about leaving our yorkie, but we were reassured after our meet and greet! Her house the perfect set up for our fur baby Lilah! She gave up daily reports on how Lilah was doing. Lilah had a vacation while we enjoyed ours. Would highly recommend Kimmie for your small dogs boarding needs!”


About: I grew up around dogs, I have always had dogs in my life, and I love hanging out with them! I have two senior dogs who are very low energy, and a mini Ausiepoo who always wants to play! I love to take my fur babies kayaking, walking, and to the dog park, and I love dog sitting for friends and family since I have a large yard. I can’t wait to meet your dog(s)! My wife, Nichole, and I are currently available to board most nights, and we offer doggie daycare on Tuesdays and Fridays through Sundays. I work from home part of the week, so I can hang out all day with your fur baby. We have a large, fully fenced backyard, perfect for zoomies, and a large dog door for easy potty access. We also have a little dog pool for the water babies, extra kennels if needed, numerous toys, and extra dog beds so that your fur babies can feel right at home!

His size and energy can make him difficult for many, but not only was he well cared for, but Kristie made it clear that she genuinely loved our puppy and that gave us an enormous sense of comfort knowing that he was being cared for by someone who knew what she was doing and sincerely cared about our pup’s well being. Five stars! She will always be our first choice!”
