“Travis is the best! Our two dogs love going to his house. He communicates very quickly and even offers to drop our dogs off at our house so we do not have to pick them up after a long day of travel. This was our 3-4x using him and will be booking again.”
“I’ve been going to Shardee for a week now and she does an excellent job with my 7 week old puppy Levi! He is learning and developing so much faster with her help. He loves coming over and playing and sleeping around! I would highly recommend from one puppy parent to another !!”
“Mary Bess was fantastic! She was so helpful and worked with us on our schedule. Our pup was happy and well taken care of. We will absolutely be using Mary Bess again!”
“Tralun has kept our dog, Jack, twice now and has done a great job both times! He sends daily pictures and updates and he and his siblings spend plenty of quality time with the animals they board!!”
“Amy was absolutely amazing! Our two golden doodles stayed with Amy while we were out of town for several days. They had the best time with her at her house! Amy was so sweet to them and gave them lots of love! Plus sent us pictures to update us! It warmed our hearts since we don’t like to be away from them! She even sent them home with 2 toys! Thank you Amy! Dixie and Junie can’t wait to come back to your house! :)”
“Bonnie is AMAZING!!! Our Zeus ADORES them!!! She communicates quickly and is always excited to see us! If I ask how he’s doing, she replies quickly and even includes pictures!! Book with Bonnie! You’ll be SO glad you do! We’ll never use else🥰🐾”
About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have always been the go-to person for my family and friends to take care of their fur babies. My fiancé and I are both prior law enforcement/military who now work from home full time. We have our own needy fur baby who our lives revolve around. We would love to open our home to your baby as well! We have a fully fenced in yard that is separated by a middle fence in the event your pup would like some alone time outside away from the others. We have two automatic filling water bowls that are outside for during play time. When your pup is here, they will be treated like our own SPOILED. We also own and operate a homemade dog treat/food company so we can accommodate any special allergy/food preferences needed.
“Absolutely amazing and Great communication. Although Holly only kept my boy for a day, she sent plenty of pictures and it was a plus that her kids loved Zeus. I would highly recommend and will be a returning client as long as Holly will have us.”
“Fantastic! Highly recommend. I had to go out of town last minute for two weeks half way across the world and didn’t know Hunter prior. Well, let me say I would leave my German shepherd with Hunter and his wife again and again. It was clear his well-being was a priority and he got along super well with their two pups. I received daily video, photo, and text updates about my dog, Kuno. They even gave him a bath midway through his two week stay. We did a meet and greet at a local park a couple days before my trip, and that went well, and I appreciated all the communication I received before during and even after his stay. Hunter and his wife even helped me out by picking Kuno up when I was running late for the airport. Kuno was sad to leave their house and he’s been sleeping off all the fun he had. Definitely reach out to this couple! Thanks again!!”
“As a first time Rover user, I was hesitant in trusting our fur baby with strangers. I am so glad I read their reviews and went with my gut instinct! Rue had a great visit and was not in any type of distress after we picked her up - unlike after being boarded. The communication was excellent and we even received daily pictures! I would not hesitate to use them again!”
“Keja is the best sitter ever! She is a kind, responsible and empathetic! She is been sending videos of Jesse every day! Jesse was so happy to spend this week with Keja!”
“Ashley was great! She sent plenty of pictures and texts to let us know that Trigger was having a great time! I would definitely recommend her!”
“Kourtni was amazing! She took care of my baby girl Nala on short notice and sent me updates and pictures to show me that my dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter and will certainly be using her again.”
“Nikki is so sweet and loving with my dog! She sent photos and kept us up to date on everything while we were away! She’s the best! Will definitely rebook with her again!!!”

“Excellent!! Lori is an amazing petsitter! She sent me pictures and updates and had a fenced in back yard as well as a doggy door. My babies didn't want to leave!

Will be using her every time we go out of town!”
About: Experienced dog owner and care giver to family dogs. I always believer that the dog has to fit the individual to be at peace because of the nature of my work requires occasional virtual meetings. I do pre-met ups to better determine. I am a college professor that has a flexible schedule, allowing me to work from home half of the time. And I will be fully available over the summer, for all the vacationers. I require pre-meeting of the dogs I keep to make sure it’s a good fit for my home. I have a fenced- back yard and a large fur baby that love to play with other fur babies. We are often in the back yard or working in the garden. My dog is well trained and obedient, a compassionate big baby. I alter with crating at certain times. I prefer well trained dogs.
About: I stand out as a pet sitter because I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog's unique needs, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, going on walks, or just providing companionship. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and temperaments, including senior dogs who may need extra attention. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Pet care fits into my routine seamlessly, as I have flexible availability throughout the week. Since I’m in school, I’m free after 3 PM on weekdays, after 12 PM on Tuesdays, and available anytime on weekends. This allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet ensuring they get the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment. My apartment complex has a designated doggy area, providing a great space for pets to play and get fresh air. I follow their usual routines, including feeding schedules and any special care instructions, to help them feel at home. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get exercise, and receive plenty of companionship. My goal in both settings is to provide loving, reliable care so pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Adaora was wonderful! She made sure Spoofy felt at home and gave him plenty of play and attention. She also adhered to boundaries that I set for Spoofy at home (I.e. keeping him off the furniture and discouraging him from play biting people’s hands). I’d definitely recommend her!”

“Haven and Alex typically watch my dog Rambo anytime that I go out of town. They spoil him just as much as they spoil their Kapone. Rambo gets excited anytime we pull into their drive way. I’m starting to think Rambo would rather live with them than me at this point lol. They always give us a free small sample bag of treats that they make for their business as well when we pick up Rambo which is a plus.”

Both of my dogs took to her right away, and I felt completely at ease leaving them in her care. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind.
