“Sniper had so much fun! They were very flexible with pick up and drop off as well helping with my busy schedule. Sent pictures and videos each day, will definitely use their services in the future!”


“I just moved to this area and needed a new boarding space for my dog and cat. The kennels seemed to be one or the other and not both, so I turned to Rover! Wendy had great reviews, repeat bookings (I have already booked my furbs second stay!), and the photos and descriptions of her place are true to form. Wendy sent me photos and videos throughout their stay, so I really felt connected to my pets while I had to travel for work! I highly recommend Wendy, she's a great person who truly loves our pets!”


About: I have had animals ever since I was born and was tasked with taking care of them at a young age. I have two animals myself and believe in treating every pet I see as part of my own family! I am trying to save up enough money to go back to school so help me help you and your furry friends! I work during the week from 8-5 but I am available anytime after 5pm and I am available any time on the weekends as well! I live in a single story ranch home with a large fenced in back yard. Your furry friend will be sharing space with 2 other corgis and cats. My dogs are very dog friendly and love making new friends. All precautions will be taken and I require at least one meet and greet with my dogs before accepting boarding.


“We are so blessed to have Cassandra take care of our little guy Mo. The care and attention that Cassandra and her family provide leave us with zero worry that Mo is in safe hands. Being a repeat customer of Cassandra's, we can recommend her services without hesitation and would do so to anyone who is looking for the best care possible for their pet. Thank you Cassandra!”


“Heather was great! She watched my two kitties long term, they can be a handful and she was great with them! She also accommodated my specific needs and took them last minute! Will definitely use again if needed!”



“Anthony and Leslie are truly amazing people. They treated Buddy as if he was their own. It makes you feel so at ease and calm knowing your pet is so well taken care off.”


About: I was raised in a farm family and within my father's exotic bird business. I've been taking care of a variety of types of animals since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets. I have experience working as a dog daycare and kennel employee. I have two dogs of my own and enjoy being an animal caregiver. I have experience rendering first aid. I know what it is to want peace of mind while away from my own pets and I enjoy providing that for other pet people. I love that working with animals teaches me about what it is to be human. I have a flexible schedule to focus on caring for your animal family member. I have plenty of time and attention to devote to spending time with pets. I will treat your service with the utmost professionalism and render the same care and concern to your pets I give to looking after the needs of my own.

About: I have years of experience with animals, I have a lovely fences backyard and a nearby park to walk the dogs. Plenty of space to sleep freely in the house or if needs crated, I have. For dogs they would be walked daily as I am close to a nice park with a walking path. They will have plenty of time to play outside. For now I am home all day so I will be with pets constantly. For dogs I have a nice fenced yard to play in. For cats they are kept separately in the house from other animals. I do have one cat and one dog in the home.

“Richard is the best! We no longer feel guilty taking trips without our dog Boo knowing that he has the best time at Richard’s. Richard always sends daily pictures and is very communicative, so we never have to worry about our baby.”


“Monica was wonderful with our dog, Snowflake! She is super responsive, flexible, and our anxious rescue clearly felt completely relaxed with her. She’s great!”



“Kathleen is the best! Caring and conscientious, she took great care of our pup Christie, and sent a ton of photos and videos every day. Thanks Kathleen!”


“Michael's pet sitting was a game-changer for us. His regular updates made being away from our Yorkshire terriers stress-free. The dogs adore him, and it's clear he genuinely cares. Michael isn't just a pet sitter; he's become a trusted friend to our furry family members. Highly recommend!”


“Rachel and Mike provided an outstanding boarding experience for MY CAT, Fluffy. Awesome!!!! From the moment I left her in their care, I knew she was in the best hands. They consistently went above and beyond, making sure Fluffy received plenty of love, attention, and treats. What really set them apart was the thoughtful updates they provided—seeing pictures of Fluffy enjoying her stay brought us so much peace of mind. Rachel and Mike’s dedication to Fluffy’s comfort was truly remarkable. They even covered additional expenses to ensure she had everything she needed until we could settle up with them. 😉 Their genuine passion for pets is clear in every interaction, and it made a world of difference. If you’re searching for a reliable and caring pet boarding power couple, look no further than Rachel and Mike. They treated Fluffy like their own, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them for anyone who wants the best for their furry family members!”


“Megan was awesome and provided many updates and pictures and feedback! She definitely cares for the dogs that she takes into her home! Highly recommend!”


“Laurie was super quick to respond to all of my messages and my dog had a great time there!”


“James did a fantastic job taking care of my dog for a week, soon after I moved to Fort Myers. His house and yard are very clean and spacious, and he has a friendly dog (Myles) who was great company. James, himself, is clearly a devoted dog person himself, and is also clearly motivated to do a great job as a dog-sitter. It was obvious, throughout my dog's stay, that James cared about her and keeping her feeling comfortable. As for my level of comfort, he texted me regularly while I was away, often including photos of my dog. And he responded immediately when I texted or called for information. Finally, I could tell that my dog was very comfortable at James' and Myles' house, from the meet-and-greet to the pick-up. I can't recommend James highly enough.”


“Truly wonderful! Valerie is so kind. She watched our sensitive adopted dog over Thanksgiving and made him feel right at home with snuggles and play in the big backyard. I was nervous to leave our dog with someone new to him, but he felt right at home with Valerie!! She sent pictures and video updates, which was so sweet. We absolutely will be using Valerie again in the near future! ❤️”


“Mikaela is the absolute best!! We had a super fun and friendly meet and greet and I knew my Aussie, Nick would have a fab time. He loved her other 2 dogs and was treated like he was right at home! Mikaela was lovely to communicate with; super clear with details and sent me lots of adorable photos while I was away. Thank you Mikaela, Abby & Cecil for taking great care of my best buddy!! <3”


“We highly recommend Shay. This was our 1st time leaving our fur baby with a sitter and we were nervous. Shay helped reassure us, and sent videos and pictures. She is a good person and was very good with our girl and treated her as one of her own. Thank you Shay for helping us have a worry free vacation!”
