“My dog, Ryder, enjoyed his stay with Charlie and his dogs. Charlie was very accommodating. We set up a meet and greet for our dogs and they ended up playing for 2 hours! I was updated daily, however much I requested. I only had to provide food and anything else I specifically wanted to bring. Charlie had an extra kennel and plenty of toys. He did walks with Ryder and made sure he got all that lab energy out. We’re back home now and Ryder’s going to sleep for a few days. He’s worn out from his great weekend!! I’m looking forward to using Charlie and his family again.”
“Ann and her sweet family are the best . Boba loved his stay there and had a blast . She always sent updates and pictures , and she lets you know if anything happens or looks out of the ordinary with your furbabies . Definitely recommend and will be coming back .”
“Lauri is always always kind to Meeks, our 90lb baby. Meeks loves to go to Lauri's, to hang out. We fill confident that our dog is being taken care of, and is safe. Thanks Lauri”
“Callie went above and beyond for my dog! She sent many pictures and updates through her stay. She kept her entertained with toys, walks, and play time with other dogs. She even gave her a bath before I picked her up! I never had to worry if my dog was being taken care of while I was gone, and I will definitely continue to use Callie in the future!”
“Ms. Brenda is so patient and has such a great spirit. She did an awesome job with my puppy Ceazer. It was his first stay with her. She updated us with photos and of his well being. When we picked him up, he was happy and energetic as ever! Thanks again💜”
“Allie and Chipper did a great job taking care of Gracie. We looked forward to the pictures she sent of Gracie playing with Chipper and getting belly rubs from Allie. We will definitely ask Allie to keep Gracie next time we need a sitter.”
“I definitely hit the jackpot with Jennifer! I was so nervous about having to board my dog but when I read the reviews on Jennifer and her bio, I immediately felt comforted! She’s the dog whisperer…my Ellie loved staying with her and playing with her dogs! Jennifer sent pics and videos which made my heart happy! I was worried that Ellie might not want to leave because she looked comfy and cozy there….it was the best stay with Jennifer at her doggy daycare! She has a passion for dogs and it’s obvious because she loves your pet as if they were her own! The bow on this package is that she put together a gift basket with all of Ellie’s favorite things…definitely an act of kindness going above and beyond for my pup! I’m so grateful and definitely recommend her AND will be using her again! Thank you to Rover and Jennifer for making this the best experience for me and Ellie Mae!”

About: Growing up we were a pet family - included cats, dogs, rats (I know), hamsters, fish, and reptiles. As an adult I have been responsible for caring for the pets of my friends and family. Including "high maintenance dogs, e.g requiring medication 3 times a day, needing an ointment on their skin etc. I have looked after dogs and cats ranging from a few months to end of life care, including those visually impaired. I currently have no pets of my own so am looking forward to devoting my care to your pet. My full-time job is flexible in terms of hours and I can work from home if your pet needs extra attention. This allows for the flexibility for scheduling walks or boarding. I am available most days for all activities depending on the day. I have a pet friendly home in a beautiful area of Midtown so if walks are needed it the best environment. Other pets would need their homes if they require (crate, terrarium etc). I live in a clean, calm, environment that all pets can enjoy.
“Laura was incredible with our three cats! We were away for 10 days and I never once worried because she communicated with us at every check in. We will be booking with Laura in the future!”

About: I’ve had the joy of taking care of two of the sweetest kitty girls in the world for the last 10+ years and would never provide subpar care for anyone else’s littlest family members. One of my girls has special needs and is very shy while the other has the biggest personality, so diversity is the name of my game!

About: I'm here to lend a helping hand in caring for your furbabies. Mine are my world! I don't know that I've ever been without pets. I'm that person that stops traffic to help a turtle cross the road. I've saved many strays. We've fostered multiple sets of pups from the local shelters & I have experience with bottle feed babies, both pups & kittens. I have & have had many pets throughout my life & that's where my experience comes from. Dogs of all sizes, young & old. I can give medications if needed. I would love to help you out when you need someone to step in & care for them for a bit. I will treat them as I would my own. I work a full time job M - F, 8:00 - 4:00, but my job is Hybrid, so I work from home 3 days a week. So aside from meetings, I can fit in drop-in visits most anytime. I can also, stop by prior to & after work as well. My schedule is pretty flexible. I have multiple pups & even more cats. I have a fenced in backyard that our babies thoroughly enjoy being able to roam & explore daily. During my visits, I will care for your baby however you've instructed because I know it's beneficial for them to stay on their own schedule. A couple of mine have high anxiety so I fully understand the benefits of staying home & keeping schedules as much as possible. If they don't have a fence & need walks, I will welcome the additional steps.
About: I had a Cocker-Spaniel for 12 years with my wife and just recently got my first puppy last year. Now I am addicted, we have since adopted one and fostered many. My sister is a drug rep for veterinary clinics and I do computer work for a few of them. I have lots of contacts in the field if ever there was an emergency. I work from home most of the time, and usually here all day and night, other than for store runs, or occasional working in office. I have an unfenced yard but live in a great area for walking dogs on leash, there is a park across the street we can run in and play fetch. I have 2 dogs, Charley and Winnie, Charley is a big puppy that loves all other dogs, he is 75 pounds of play, Winnie is more of the mother dog but only weighs 17 pounds, she puts Charley in his place though. They are up to dates on shots and preventative medicines and both are fixed.
“Jordan was an amazing cat sitter and first time experience using Rover! She even came over last minute and checked on one of our babies when we saw him messing with something he shouldn’t be on the cat cam. We have two special needs cats and three cats total and she did a great job spending time with each. Highly recommended.”

About: I’m an animal lover who’s happiest when I’m outside walking, running, or biking and I love having a furry buddy join me for the adventure. I grew up with four dogs, so barking, potty breaks, and a little (okay, a lot of) dog hair are just part of life for me. From a young age, I learned how to keep pups happy, safe, and entertained, and that’s stuck with me ever since. Your dog’s needs always come first with me whether that’s playtime, snuggles, or just a nice chill nap in the sun. I’ve got a soft spot for every kind of dog, even the grumpy ones, and I’ll never say no to a good cuddle session. At home, I have three super sweet Ragdoll cats who love dogs (seriously - they’re like dogs in cat form). I’ve also got a big fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for running around. Since I work from home, your pup will have company all day and can hang out inside or outside whenever they want. Lots of playtime, lots of love, and lots of tail wags. That’s what I’m all about. I work from home, so I’m around all day which means your pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor breaks! Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I’ve got a pretty flexible schedule and can easily fit in long walks, snuggle breaks, or just some good company while I work. Your dog’s safety always comes first. I’ll never make a decision about your pet without checking in with you first, and I’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, or whatever helps you feel at ease. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I want you to feel totally comfortable knowing they’re in good hands.

About: I bring hands-on experience from working in both kennels and animal shelters, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments.

In a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they stay comfortable in their own environment. I’ve had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to give them not just the basics like food and water, but also attention, patience, and affection. Every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes them feel most at ease.
About: I have plenty of experience when it comes to caring for dogs, especially big dogs (as a great dane owner). Feeding, walking, cleaning up after them, and even training them. Taking care of multiple pets at a time is no problem! I am currently a college student who only has classes in the mornings so my afternoons and nights are free. If needed, I am available to wake up early before my classes to care for your pets. I will ensure that all animals are accounted for and taken care of. I will make sure all doors are shut and everything is in order. It’s very important to keep anything dangerous out of site and stay alert while caring for animals.
“Maitland is very accommodating. She has helped me work around my new work schedule for Rosa. She met Rosa and myself for an introduction for all of us. Rosa really enjoys the time when Maitland comes to hang out with her. I would recommend to friends and family that have needs to be met.”
About: Pets have always been apart of my life! I grew up with a variety of breeds of dogs. I have even had a few pet birds! As a teenager & young adult, pet sitting has been a frequent side gig of mine that has brought me joy and a way to help support my growing family. I work remotely and am home for most of the day. My husband is also usually home during the day. While your pets stay with us, they will have plenty of love and attention! I have a large backyard that is fully fenced. For your pets safety, they will always be supervised and not left alone outside or be exposed to extreme heat or cold. I take daily walks with my children and your pet, always leashed for safety. I keep a large crate with comfortable bedding for sleeping. I do have 2 toddlers who adore animals & the entertainment that often comes along with them. Because of this, I can only accept pets that are known to be good with children. We also have a Jack Russel mix named Sadie. She is good with other dogs!
About: I had a Cocker-Spaniel for 12 years with my wife and just recently got my first puppy last year. Now I am addicted, we have since adopted one and fostered many. My sister is a drug rep for veterinary clinics and I do computer work for a few of them. I have lots of contacts in the field if ever there was an emergency. I work from home most of the time, and usually here all day and night, other than for store runs, or occasional working in office. I have an unfenced yard but live in a great area for walking dogs on leash, there is a park across the street we can run in and play fetch. I have 2 dogs, Charley and Winnie, Charley is a big puppy that loves all other dogs, he is 75 pounds of play, Winnie is more of the mother dog but only weighs 17 pounds, she puts Charley in his place though. They are up to dates on shots and preventative medicines and both are fixed.

“My dog, Ryder, enjoyed his stay with Charlie and his dogs. Charlie was very accommodating. We set up a meet and greet for our dogs and they ended up playing for 2 hours! I was updated daily, however much I requested. I only had to provide food and anything else I specifically wanted to bring. Charlie had an extra kennel and plenty of toys. He did walks with Ryder and made sure he got all that lab energy out. We’re back home now and Ryder’s going to sleep for a few days. He’s worn out from his great weekend!! I’m looking forward to using Charlie and his family again.”
“Ann and her sweet family are the best . Boba loved his stay there and had a blast . She always sent updates and pictures , and she lets you know if anything happens or looks out of the ordinary with your furbabies . Definitely recommend and will be coming back .”
“Lauri is always always kind to Meeks, our 90lb baby. Meeks loves to go to Lauri's, to hang out. We fill confident that our dog is being taken care of, and is safe. Thanks Lauri”
“Callie went above and beyond for my dog! She sent many pictures and updates through her stay. She kept her entertained with toys, walks, and play time with other dogs. She even gave her a bath before I picked her up! I never had to worry if my dog was being taken care of while I was gone, and I will definitely continue to use Callie in the future!”
“Ms. Brenda is so patient and has such a great spirit. She did an awesome job with my puppy Ceazer. It was his first stay with her. She updated us with photos and of his well being. When we picked him up, he was happy and energetic as ever! Thanks again💜”
“I definitely hit the jackpot with Jennifer! I was so nervous about having to board my dog but when I read the reviews on Jennifer and her bio, I immediately felt comforted! She’s the dog whisperer…my Ellie loved staying with her and playing with her dogs! Jennifer sent pics and videos which made my heart happy! I was worried that Ellie might not want to leave because she looked comfy and cozy there….it was the best stay with Jennifer at her doggy daycare! She has a passion for dogs and it’s obvious because she loves your pet as if they were her own! The bow on this package is that she put together a gift basket with all of Ellie’s favorite things…definitely an act of kindness going above and beyond for my pup! I’m so grateful and definitely recommend her AND will be using her again! Thank you to Rover and Jennifer for making this the best experience for me and Ellie Mae!”
About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their dogs while they were away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times. I am available weekdays after 2:40 PM and have flexible availability on weekends. I make it a priority to give pets the time, attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Please note that I am currently unavailable on holidays. I always prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, routines, medications, walks, and playtime to ensure pets remain comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of attention I would give my own animals.
“Corey was awesome! So laid back and his place is a wonderful stress free environment for your dog to play. We would and will when we come back use Corey again. Cooper ate well and was very happy! Thank you Corey!”
“Courtney was wonderful. She provided pics and updates. My pup was having an awesome time. Responded very quickly when I had questions. I would definitely recommend her and will most definitely use her again!!”
“Jonah received exceptional care from Julie and her family. He stayed with them for a week in December right before the holiday. I appreciated the photos and attention. She provided specially during this busy time of year. She went above and beyond to transfer my pet to the next boarder. I highly recommend her.”
“We had a great experience with Monica's family watching our little guy for the weekend. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up and willing to work with what he needed. He is still a puppy at 6mo old, so there were some potty issues and anxiety being in a new place but everyone handled it well.”
“Sofia was an absolute godsend. She's incredibly dependable, professional and kind. And it's a bonus that she's a vet tech. I had never left my dog with a stranger before, so I was nervous about leaving her for a weekend. But Sofia was so communicative and responsive that my anxiety quickly vanished. I will 100% user her again.”
“The best dog care you could ever have. Very friendly, right on time. Everything is comfortable, the service, you can trust her with your dog, worries free. She really makes time to play with your dog and give so much care. She deserve more than the pay she ask for, you will never regret boarding the dog to her, they got back yard and your dog will have so much fun.”
