“I cannot express my gratitude for Kelly, adequately!! I would absolutely book with her and her family a million times over! She was very accommodating and patient from start to finish! My family and I were away for 6 days, and unfortunately, KoKo started exhibiting signs of illness on day 2 into day 3! Kelly alerted me immediately but had already made calls and received pet Med advice and comforted me as well as informed me of diagnosis! She never pressured me to return and even prepared special meals for my KoKo to ease his discomfort!!!! Turns out that he had a horrible case of separation anxiety that was literally making him sick. But Kelly and her family acted quickly and within 36 hours, helped KoKo settle and return to his normal playful healthy state! I told Kelly and I will tell the world… she’s not just a sitter… she’s a BLESSING for people that love their fur babies and want the best home away from home for them! Kelly and Brian (and precious little ones…), THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!🙏🏽”

“We had a great experience with Melanie! Max was taken well care of for the two nights he stayed with her! She took care of all his needs and treated him just like her own! She was good about texting me through out his stay to tell me how he was doing and also sent lots of pictures! He seemed happy and loved while we were gone! We look forward to using her again soon!!”

“I cannot express how great Donna is and how grateful we are with her for taking such good care of our fur baby. She made sure Chuchu had his medication when he had to, and she treated him as part of his family. Thanks Donna! See you next time!”


“Once again, Deborah was fantastic taking care of my fur-baby. She’s very attentive, caring, and flexible. She sends several updates during the stay and is quick to respond. Highly recommend! 5⭐️”
“My Achilles has become a repeat client. We love the care and attention Dalis shows him while in her care. The picture updates of him playing and having fun gives me such relief to know he is in great hands.”

“Our fur baby enjoyed his stay, he got lots of playtime and attention with Meaghan and her kiddos❤️ she kept in touch with pics and videos and eased all my anxiety with leaving him while on vacation,we highly recommend and will be using her in the near future!”

“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”

“Benjamin was very helpful and treated our dog with specialized care. We will definitely book with him again. This is the first time our dog didn't want to leave a sitter's home. Benjamin you are amazing at what you do!!”

“Kira and her husband took excellent care of my two dogs. We were able to get updates with pictures and my dogs really enjoyed their stay. I highly recommend Kira and will book our next stay with her :) Thank you for looking after our pups!”

“Stephanie and her family provided great care for our fur kid. Our previous sitter canceled on us less than 3 days before we were going away...but Stephanie came to the rescue! We were gone for a week and she provided us with updates and a picture. Our trip even got extended an extra day due to airline issues and Stephanie accomodated Ziggy with no issues. We would definitely use her again!”

“Great visit. Becky did everything to make Gias stay comfortable and fun. She enjoyed the walks and the company of the other dogs. It took so much out of her that she slept most of yesterday from all of the extra attention”

“Aram kept my dog for a full day and overnight stay, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She took such great care of my boy and kept me updated throughout his stay with photos, videos, and frequent messages. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well taken care of. Aram has a beautiful home with a huge backyard that my dog absolutely loved. He clearly had an amazing time! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Aram is the best there is! You will not be disappointed. She is officially my go-to dog sitter from now on! Thank you so much, Aram, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️🐾”

“James & Emily were great with our Honey Jo! They sent us pictures, had great communication, and walked Honey during her stay with them. We were traveling by plane so our trip timing was up in the air, but James & Emily were flexible with our drop off & pick up times. Would love to use them again!”

She took care of my kitty, and spoiled her just like I would ❤️ So glad I found Savannah to help us during our vacation!”

“Danielle is wonderful with my 3 cats. Spends time, cats are very at ease with her, while they normally would hide . Goes out of her way to clean up after the cats and keeps me up to date with their progress. Couldn’t be happier with her care.”

“We couldn’t say better things about Allison! She loved our animals like her own and always sent us the funniest/cutest pictures and notes. We were so comfortable leaving them in her care. She is truly exceptional! We will be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone!!!”

“Ren is one of the most amazing pet-sitters I’ve had! Being gone for several days, Ren made sure to do a pre-check in and made sure nothing was missed. My two cats experienced the best care while we were gone and Ren kept us informed and up to date on their health and well being. I will definitely be giving Ren a call whenever I’m out of town next time!”

“Callie did a great job. One of cats is very shy and Callie was super patient with her and even got her to come out play. Callie also went above and beyond and reset our auto feeder for us when it turned off.”


About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my pet care commitments carefully. I have three days off each week, and I can often arrange extended time off for bookings that require extra attention. On workdays, I make sure pets receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need before and after my shifts, and I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. My goal is to provide reliable, consistent care while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and preferences so they receive individualized care. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Jennifer did a wonderful job coming by each morning to take care of our kitties and spend some time cuddling them. She also sent plenty of pictures and updates each day.”


About: Experience with friendly and not so friendly felines. If they wants snuggles - snuggles they get. If they want to be left alone - they'll never see me. Little box scooper extraordinaire.

“Vivien did an excellent job caring for my aging feline on the 4th of July when I had to be away from her. Throughout the evening of fireworks explosions, Vivien kept my Kitty calm and soothed her so that she felt safe. She stayed with her overnight and left when all was well the next morning. The peace of mind this gave me was tremendous. Her communication with me was excellent and she left my home in the same great condition that she found it. I definitely recommend Vivien for you Feline or Canine pet sitting needs and for overnight stays if necessary. I will definitely be calling on Vivian again for her pet care services.”


“Makoto has done a great job caring for my reptiles when I’m out of town for weeks at a time. She’s very reliable about learning the care routine for each species and I would definitely recommend working with her!”

“Ben is one of the best dog sitters Lamby’s met! He was available last minute and even helped us with transport as we only had our RV and finding a pet friendly taxi in town was challenging. Lamb Chop almost wanted to stay with Ben he had such a good day, and he was perfectly tuckered out and content after a fun time.”

“First time using Colleen for daycare, she did a wonderful job with our little picky guy. Teddy had a great time playing and snuggling each day. Communication each day went smoothly. Colleen made drop off and pickup a breeze. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs since I was a young child. Dogs are a joy and I love having them around. Each and every dog I’ve cared for gets plenty of attention within my household. Special care requests will be accommodated as much as possible. I am retired and a stay at home dad. This allows me to be home with your fur baby throughout the day and night. Your pup will have constant and consistent supervision throughout the day. If I need to leave the house for any reason, all dogs will be put in their safe place. I have a fenced yard and three small friendly dogs. I can crate your pup if requested or easily separate any dogs when needed. I do have plenty of dog toys for your pup to enjoy. During feeding time, all dogs are separated and watched closely.
“I’m so thankful we found Kira. Our Doxie Teddy loves going to her home for daycare and boarding. I’m know he’s being well cared for and treated like one of her own fur babies”

About: I’ve been around and cared for dogs since I was a child, so working with animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have seven dogs of my own, which has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, ages, sizes, energy levels, and individual needs. My experience includes feeding and maintaining routines, walking and exercise, potty breaks, crate routines, playtime and enrichment, basic oral medications, and caring for both puppies and senior dogs. Managing a large pack has also taught me how important it is to pay attention to each dog’s behavior, comfort level, and personality. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I will treat every pet I care for with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work as an independent DoorDash driver, which allows me to create my own schedule and gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care. I can plan my DoorDash hours around my Rover bookings, allowing me to prioritize the pets in my care and give them plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and extended care. Because my work schedule is flexible, I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your pet’s normal routine and needs. I also care for my own dogs daily, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I understand the importance of consistency, regular potty breaks, exercise, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention. My goal is to work around your pet’s routine whenever possible, rather than expecting your pet to adjust to mine. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I have a fully fenced-in backyard with three security cameras, which provides additional monitoring and peace of mind. Dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of playtime. I have seven dogs of my own, so I’m experienced with managing a multi-dog household and paying attention to each dog’s personality, boundaries, and comfort level. Introductions are handled carefully, and dogs can be separated when needed so everyone has their own safe and comfortable space. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their normal routine and follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, crate routines, and any household or safety rules. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and closely supervised environment where every pet is treated like family.

With a large fenced yard and a secure doggy gate, your furry family gets safe playtime, gentle care, and a calm place to relax and feel at home. Currently I work full-time from home.

“Becky is truly awesome! She sent pictures of Jax enjoying himself and definitely put us at ease with leaving him with her. Jax seemed to enjoy himself so much I was afraid he might not want to go home with us! I’ve already booked her for our next out of town trip!”

“Stephanie was great! She has a big backyard and comfortable home to watch my dog, Vinny. She was very welcoming and knowledgeable about dogs. She sent pictures of Vinny, and he was well taken care of. I recommend her!”

About: I have 3 years of experience caring for my own Border Collie, so I’m very comfortable with active, energetic dogs and understand the importance of regular exercise, attention, and playtime. I also regularly care for a friend’s dog when their family travels to Korea, sometimes for about two months at a time. During these extended stays, I provide daily feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I personally provide all pet care for my Rover bookings and will be the sole caregiver for the pets in my care. I treat every dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I have my own Border Collie. I’m used to planning my day around feeding, walks, playtime, and exercise. My schedule is flexible, so I can give your dog plenty of attention and make sure they get the care and activity they need throughout the day. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get plenty of exercise. My home also has a friendly Border Collie who is comfortable being around other dogs. Three children live in the home—one in high school, one in middle school, and one in 5th grade—and they are used to being around dogs and love animals. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I personally make sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, fresh water, and a safe and comfortable place to relax. I’ll treat your dog like family while they’re staying in my home.

I treat every dog like family — because they are. 2 day minimum required. As a stay-at-home mom, I integrate pet care seamlessly into our daily and weekly routines. Each morning begins with feeding and checking on our pets, ensuring they have fresh water and a clean space. Throughout the day, I include walks, playtime, and interaction as part of our family activities—helping pets stay active and engaged. Grooming, cleaning litter boxes or cages, and maintaining their living areas are handled regularly, typically during nap times or quieter parts of the day. I also schedule weekly tasks such as bathing, or vet visits as needed. Caring for our pets is a natural part of our home life. As a stay-at-home mom, creating a safe, trustworthy, and nurturing environment is at the heart of my daily routine.

“Danielle is leash training and has made great progress in a short period of time. She also has taken the time to share her strategies so we can reinforce the training on our own. We are excited to continue. Danielle is very easy to communicate with and responds quickly. We had to reschedule due to local storms and the stress that this causes our boys. But she was mindful to check in and verify that it was what we preferred.”

About: Our pets are like our children. They are 100% a part of our family.

About: Please Cat friendly dogs only if staying in our home. Since I was vey young I always had a special bone in my body for animals especially dogs. They're the joy in our hearts and the light of our lives. I live my life by the motto: I want to be the person my dog believes I am. I am sweet, loving, stern, and giving to my furry friends. I enjoy the presence of dogs & cats but I cannot have cats in my home due to an allergy in the family. I love to cuddle them and reward them for their good behavior. Feeding time is the happiest time for us! Walks are so comforting and much appreciated, I am fit and love going on walks. Thanks So much Jessi. Animal lover 💕 Open Availability for cuddles. I love spending time with dogs and cats. I miss my furbaby so much recently lost her to cancer and this has been helping me so much. I have a fenced back yard and cool AC indoor home. I love snuggling with pups and taking them out as needed. I am even able to make them homemade meals if necessary :)

We would definitely use her again!”

About: I have cared for both dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens for over 20 years. The love of animals helps me to care for them in the most precious. I will work hard to earn your trust and theirs! I have reserved my time and skills to become a full-time animal lover and provider. I enjoy caring for animals and can multitask while caring for several at the same time. My new friends are fed played with taken out for bathroom, breaks, exercise, and comforted by me. If they have any, it can be met by me using my lengthy experience we’re caring for all types of animals.

“Great visit. Becky did everything to make Gias stay comfortable and fun. She enjoyed the walks and the company of the other dogs. It took so much out of her that she slept most of yesterday from all of the extra attention”

“Aram kept my dog for a full day and overnight stay, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She took such great care of my boy and kept me updated throughout his stay with photos, videos, and frequent messages. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well taken care of. Aram has a beautiful home with a huge backyard that my dog absolutely loved. He clearly had an amazing time! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Aram is the best there is! You will not be disappointed. She is officially my go-to dog sitter from now on! Thank you so much, Aram, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️🐾”

About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my pet care commitments carefully. I have three days off each week, and I can often arrange extended time off for bookings that require extra attention. On workdays, I make sure pets receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need before and after my shifts, and I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. My goal is to provide reliable, consistent care while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and preferences so they receive individualized care. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Shaquita is amazing! I was so nervous about boarding for the first time but it was a great experience. Loved seeing pictures each day❤️ I’d definitely book with her in the future”

“Cassie was a fantastic dog sitter. She’s friendly, attentive, and her backyard is perfect for the dogs to play. My dogs were well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”

“Danielle was an absolute lifesaver for us! My senior dog has anxiety, and has never stayed with a non-family member, so leaving her for 5 days was initially a bit daunting. However, Danielle was incredibly patient and understanding, and her calm demeanor really helped my pup settle in. Daily text updates and photos provided peace of mind. The photos clearly showed that she was comfortable and captured adorable moments of her relaxing. It was evident how well my dog was cared for. Danielle followed all instructions, and the home was clean. Booking is highly recommended!”

“Heather was wonderful with our girls. We have a reactive pup and she worked so well with her. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our trip without worrying. Would absolutely rebook with Heather. Glad we found her!!!”
