“Tux has always been anxious when left behind, but did very well with Emily all day. She was very attentive to his needs and he got along well with her other daycare pup.

“She is THE BEST dog sitter! We take our pup Walter to her and her fiancé every weekday and I always feel at ease that he is getting the best possible care. I get picture and text updates throughout the day and beyond that, Chloe goes the extra mile. She contacted me immediately when Walter was peeing more frequently than usual and even took a sample for me to take to the vet when I picked him up, and offered to give him a medical trim to help when he goes to the bathroom. These guys are amazing.”

“So glad to have found the Rover option for daycare for Daisy! It was like a home away from home and she didn't have to be alone. Jerin sent pics of Daisy with her dog and reported the two were getting along great. Daisy came home happy and VERY tired, so I know she must have had a good time! Thanks Jerin!”


“Kristy is great. My dog loved her and her family and would pull the leash towards her door when we arrive in the morning. He had a blast and arrived home exhausted which is awesome. After a long day at work, I didn't need to look for ways to entertain him. Thanks Kristine.”

I haven't met an animal yet that I couldn't win over and make them my friend! I adore animals, and they love me! Pet care is my life. The majority of my day is devoted to animal care. This is a farm, so a few hours a day devoted to farm chores, but the rest of the day is devoted to the pets in my care. There are trails and a creek, so we go for walks and the occasional swim. There are also wide open pastures that are great for a game of chase or fetch. My home is set up for any kind of care. At our home; your animal will be made to feel at home. There are crates if your pet is more comfortable this way. At your home; time will be spent socializing with your pet, play, cuddling, story time, and feeding.

Ellen G.
“I met Ellen a few years ago when I hired her to cat sit for me, and from that very first experience, I knew I had found someone truly special. Ellen has such a kind, nurturing, and genuinely friendly presence—it’s something you feel the moment you meet her. My cat has always been extremely timid around new people, usually taking days to warm up, if at all. But with Ellen, something was different. Incredibly, my cat opened up to her within the first day. That kind of connection doesn’t happen often, and it spoke volumes about Ellen’s gentle and trustworthy nature. She is attentive, reliable, and truly cares for the animals she looks after. Because of her, I’m able to travel without a shred of anxiety, knowing my pet is not just cared for, but genuinely loved while I’m away. Ellen is a rare find, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
