Personalized care for your dog or cat - Wende
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Wende
“Jennifer and her family were fantastic. They took excellent care of our dog and treated her as their own! Communication was great, and we really appreciated the opportunity to meet them before her stay. They also sent pictures during her stay which was great! We would absolutely book again!”
“Kaia was absolutely wonderful with our pup..she was quick to communicate and we felt very comfortable knowing our dog was in such capable hands. She is kind and warm and cares for your dog with love.”
“We needed someone to watch a very active 1.5yr old Brittany, and we are really picky about who watches our animals. Sandra was recommended and boarding with her and Mark was the best experience ever. Missy’s stay with them was literally a doggy vacation with a Giant yard to play in, long walks, huge professional kennel for her to lounge in, and, picture/video updates every day! They even have a TV in the temperature controlled kennel space so our girl could listen to tv like she is used to at our house. I look forward to using them again. They are a bit of a drive for me but I will use them every time over trying any of the 15 closer results rover showed me. It is well worth the peace of mind knowing that your dogs are being pampered not just boarded.”
“Kayla is the best. She showed patience and understanding for my furbaby whom never stayed with anyone before. He received lots of love and got a chance to have a play date.”
“Kara provided an excellent stay for my boys. They loved staying with her and her pups. She responded very quickly and provided daily photos. One of my boys have epilepsy and she made sure to administer his medication twice a day and send me updates after giving it to him. I will definitely be booking with Kara again😊😊.”
“I had a great experience with Dominik boarding my two dogs. What stood out the most was that he was willing to take them in at the last minute, which helped me out tremendously and truly meant a lot. From the beginning, Dominik was professional, responsive, and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. You can tell he genuinely cares about animals and wants to make sure they feel comfortable. My dogs were well taken care of, and I appreciated knowing they were in good hands while I was away. Finding someone dependable to trust with your pets is not always easy, but I would absolutely recommend Dominik to anyone looking for reliable and caring boarding services.”
“Ollie loved his time with Megan and her family! He always looked so comfy and happy in his pictures. She always kept me updated and sent me pictures of how he was doing. Thank you for watching our fur baby!”
“Alona is absolutely amazing!! Very attentive and detailed. She communicates well with updates and she really put my mind at ease when I needed a dog sitter in a clutch. My 🐕 was so happy when I picked him up that he didn’t want to leave 😃 I will definitely call her to dog sit again. Thanks Alona!!!”
“Highly recommend, I know that Carly took such great care of our girls while we were out of town. Great communication before and during their visit which is honestly so refreshing! I know we would love to use Carly again in the future!”
“Katie did such a great job watching Ellie while we were away. She was very considerate about making sure she had all the information about Ellie to make her stay as comfortable as possible. She also sent some many great pictures/videos and updates to put us at ease that she was being well taken care of.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ms. Catherine was absolutely wonderful with Francois and Girbaud! From the moment we met her, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals and a calm, nurturing spirit that immediately put the boys at ease. She went above and beyond every step of the way—sending adorable photo updates, keeping me informed, and making sure they were comfortable, entertained, and well cared for the entire time. When I got home, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and delightfully tired—which to any dog parent means they had a great time! It’s clear she gave them plenty of exercise, play, and affection. Ms. Catherine treated them as if they were her own, and I truly appreciate her kindness, patience, and reliability. I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who’s attentive, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does, Ms. Catherine is the one. Francois, Girbaud, and I are so grateful to have found her! 🐾❤️”
“Allison was the BEST. She sent me pics and videos all throughout the day. My pup got a little scratch and she informed me which is so responsible of her! Will definitely be using her for any future events where I need a dog sitter. 10/10 ????”
“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Thank you Jessica for watching our pup! We can tell that he had a blast with her family as well and that’s all that matters! Will be rebooking as soon as we come into town!!!”
“We were a little reluctant to leave Sophie and Lilah for a week while we were out of town. Thank goodness we found Robin, she took great care of our girls. She sent us pictures and videos everyday. In the pur daily pictures, our girls looked happy and even looked like they were smiling. It put our minds at ease and we could really relax knowing our pups were being well cared for. When we brought them home, they were exhausted from playing. We immediately booked another date with Robin. I highly recommend Robin if you need to board your pups. Great experience.”

“Thank you for looking out for my sweet kitties, Madison! She did an excellent job looking out for all the details, feeding needs and other tasks. It was such a pleasure to be away knowing Madison was in charge.”
About: I’ve had cats since I was a baby. I had a diabetic cat who also had seizures. I nursed her basically back to health and she lived 5 more years after her first seizure. She was 19 years old when she finally passed. My whole family has had cats all my life. Every fur animal has a different personality that you just have to learn.
“Melissa helped me out with a same-day request and was incredibly kind and helpful. She made sure to honor food requests since my cat has a special diet and sent pictures of her so I knew she was alright. I would definitely contact Melissa again for pet sitting services.”
“Alex and Diane are great people and took amazing care of my animal! Super sweet and was very caring of what my cat needed, and very knowledged on top of that. Very happy with them.”
About: I have plenty of experience caring for cats, both personally and professionally. From feisty kittens to mellow seniors, I understand how to read feline body language and give them the space or affection they need. During my time in a veterinary clinic, I learned how to safely handle even the sassiest cats, administer medications, and monitor for any health changes. As a current vet student, I’m confident in providing calm, compassionate, and informed care—whether your cat loves cuddles or prefers quiet observation from afar.
About: Hi! I’m Jessica, a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for cats and other pets. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take pride in providing patient, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. I have experience caring for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats, including those that require medication, special diets, extra monitoring, or additional patience and reassurance. I’m comfortable caring for shy, anxious, independent, and highly social cats, and I always allow them to interact at their own pace to help them feel safe and comfortable. My services include feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, enrichment activities, medication administration when needed, and plenty of attention based on your cat’s preferences. Whether your cat enjoys chasing toys, receiving affection, or simply having a calm and reliable presence nearby, I will make sure they feel cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and give you peace of mind. My goal is to maintain your cat’s routine, reduce stress, and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in your absence. I treat every pet as if they were my own and would be honored to care for your feline family member. 🐱💕
About: Cats have been in my life for its entirety. I have been entrusted my whole life to take care of my own cats and my neighbors and friends cats from kittens to our senior babies. I also have my own little kitty myself and I will treat your cats like my own. Also, I will make sure you get cat pictures all the time while I sit them because that’s what I like when someone is looking after my kitty.
“Twanda was great!... Very knowledgeable about animals and full of compassion too! She warmed up to our cat and vice versa within a day. I highly recommend her for pet sitting with most any animal and definitely hope to have her services again!”
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember! They’ve always had a special place in my heart ! My friend relied on me to watch his pup for almost a year & she was the most spoiled girl ! We’ll treat your pets as we do our own ! Lots of walks and treats and cuddles ! I am currently working full time in the navy but have a pretty set schedule. I walk my dog after work and can do the same for yours ! My Schedule allows me to drop in to feed your pups and let them out to play for a bit! I currently have one dog who is so spoiled ! He sleeps in our bed, gets up to 2 long walks daily if possible. We goes on car rides and has lots of treats. We treat him like our kid because he is! We’ll do the same for your fur babies!
“Ben was great! I reached him on a really short notice cause my trip would take longer than I originally expected. He was so kind to come get the key and really payed attention to my pets needs. When he got to the visit, my little rascals had made a little mess. But he was cool about it and sent me cute pics! Thank you so much, 5 star!”
“Stacy was the best sitter I could’ve asked for! She is super responsible and experienced with dogs and cats and I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in her care. She communicated extremely well and sent updates and pictures every day! Would 100% recommend her to anyone :)”
About: Wasn't allowed to have pets when I was young but as soon as I could, I treat them like I want to be treated because fur babies are an extension of the people that raise them I'm currently retired/disabled Army, I have nothing but time to be of service to service animals and non service animals. So when last minute stuff happens I'm the go-to for friends and family I have a fenced in yard and a screened off patio and can cage your pet or room them if potty trained or even let them sleep in the same space as me if they need constant human interaction. I have 2 dogs they can react to or be kept separate from in the house between the fenced yard and screened off patio. The garage is also screened off so the doors can be left open for more space and ventilation. It's a 2 floor home so if your pet doesn't play well with others, they'll never have to meet. Everyone that lives in the home shares 2 or more decades of pet care experience or are Army medics with experience in emergency medicine.
About: I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I have been caring for pets my entire life and have a lot of experience with dogs. I work from home and I’m available to give your pet the attention they deserve while you are away. My home can be their home away from home. I care for all visitors like they are my own and spend tons of quality time with them. I love to take walks and I include at least 2 20-minute walks for each day your pet stays with me.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Wende
“Robin was amazing. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind. My puppy was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m Alexis, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I know they aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and cuddly, or somewhere in between. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and to care for them just as I would my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages to give you peace of mind. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a helping hand! I'm a recent college graduate so I am home fulltime and have more than enough time available to love on your fur baby! There is nothing better than having furbaby love! I do not have a fenced in backyard but will be more than happy to take your furry baby on a walk, welcome them into my apartment and/or drop in and see how they are doing!
“Keysha did an amazing job watching my cat, Chocolate Chip, for daycare. She was attentive and caring. Chocolate Chip came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend her services!”
“What a great experience! Annie & her family treated my Boykin Spaniel like family! They were flexible as our plans changed due to college drop off & went above & beyond to help with some challenges on timing & logistics. Our dog was well cared for by a very loving family!”
“We are so lucky to have found our new dog sitters! From the first meeting, it was clear how much they genuinely care about dogs. Our pup adored them right away, and that gave us so much peace of mind. You can tell they put their heart into what they do. We’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Allison was great! Oreo loved her and her husband! They had a fun weekend. She sent lots of updates including pictures and videos. He enjoyed playing with her dogs, and he came home happy and exhausted. We have already booked our next day with her!”
“Genevieve, did an awesome job with Gypsy. We were in Colorado Springs for a graduation and needed a place for Gypsy to stay during a party. Genevieve took pictures to update me on her stay. She also took her on a long walk that she desperately needed. If we ever need someone there again I would use Genevieve again.”
About: I have been caring for pets my whole life. I've cared for all pets from dogs to reptiles. I have had many puppies and a few senior dogs as well. I am very knowledgeable about dog care. I have been a dog sitter several times for friends and family. My family consists of a dog, a cat, a leopard gecko, and two sweet guinea pigs! I have experience with all kinds of animals, including small animals and reptiles! I am a volunteer with Auburn University's Natural History Museum and handle and care for multiple different species of animals. I am a full-time college student studying wildlife ecology. Most of my classes are online, so my schedule is open most of the time! In my own home, I treat all my animals like they are my biological children (which they are). They are extremely spoiled, and I love them dearly. I would definitely extend this love towards a client's pet because I love animals, no matter the size or species!
About: I’ve had many animals throughout my life and know that caring for them is my passion. I recently lost my Australian shepherd so this will be filling the void! I’m currently going out for maternity leave at work so my schedule is very open to all the fur babies. Size and breed are not an issue I have a fenced in back yard if that’s what your baby is needing. If they are inside then they are welcome to be a furry couch potato!
About: I have watched many of my friends' dogs and enjoyed each of their personalities over the years. My Frenchie, Carl, LOVES making new dog friends and would love to host your fur baby for a spend-the-night or day care. I also enjoy getting out of the house for walks so book me today! I am currently at home during the days and nights while between jobs, so I have a wide range of availability throughout the day. My Frenchie has loved me being home with him! I have a fenced-in yard, a gate inside to block off rooms if needed, and a crate that holds small dogs. I also have a small booster seat for dogs up to 25 lbs and a carrier that could house a smaller, medium-sized dog. My dog has a sensitive stomach and doesn't receive any food that would make him sick, so you can trust that I will follow your feeding instructions to a tee. I am also very dependable and know that time is of the essence when I have a meeting.
About: I've taken care of many different types of animals including dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, bunnies, and horses. I have also been trained by a dog expert when I was concerned about adopting large dog straight from the shelter and into my home of two other smaller dogs. My aunt is a veterinarian and she is always one call away from any questions Ive had about animals. I am currently enrolled in college and I am taking self defense classes. My weekends are free and I am available during some of the weekday depending on the time. In my home we allow our animals to take luxury of sleeping on couches and beds. We always clean up after them in the event something happens. I always treat my pets with respect and always show them kindness. I am very patient with my animals but do not let them run the house.
About: Our dogs have always been family and I can't recall any time in my entire life when I haven't had a dog at my side, sometimes two or three. I've had dogs of all sizes and energy levels. The longest boarding was for two months while the pup parent traveled in Asia. I've had dogs on my small ranch in NV and we rode trails together. They moved with me to CO and we enjoyed the mountains and front range together. I drove cross-country many times with my dogs, stayed in hotels and visited friends and family with them. My dogs are always a priority in all we do and I will care for your pups as I do mine. Be assured that I will follow any special instructions you give to provide your pet a safe, happy, stress-free stay. I recently rescued a deaf puppy who was in the middle of the road, and took care of her until a new, loving home was secured. I checked on her later and she is happy with her people and dog family. I am retired and always home. I spend my days gardening, cooking, squirrel and bird-watching, helping at church, and making greeting cards. My two dogs are with me the entire day. We will give your pup lots of company and love. I prefer to sit for one client at a time and max two dogs at a time. I look forward to meeting you and your pups. It's a good day any day that you meet new friends with fur. They bring joy to life. I have a 1/2 acre and a huge fenced yard for play and romping. Your dog will not be put outside for any length of time without my oversight. I am frequently out in the yard, relaxing, weeding, planting and pruning. Safety is number one and focused, pleasant care are my priorities. I want to be sure that the pups have my undivided attention. My two small dogs and I will give your pup lots of company assuring that he or she is acclimated and gets to know us. Our home is comfortable and happy. Does your pup enjoy endless belly rubs? Mine do and I have plenty to share. I prefer to sit for one client and max two dogs at a time. Photos of your pup's day are provided, if requested. I feed my dogs twice a day and give them one treat after their meals. I will feed your dogs at the time of day you prefer. We will only give your pup treats that you provide. I will follow your feeding schedule and administer meds if needed. My early career was 20 years as a hospital clinical laboratory scientist and then as a director. I've medicated my dogs and horses and given shots, so I know all the techniques needed to administer meds for your dog. Be assured, I recognize a dog's body language if in pain, stressed, or sick and will notify you immediately of any serious issues. I will follow your instructions if vet services are needed. My senior dog, Vivvie requires a special diet, so I make homemade dog food, veterinarian approved. No table scraps for her or for dogs in my care.
“We were so excited to find Colby & his family! Normally we would leave our boys in the camper while we do our adventures, but it was so hot. I contacted Colby late the night before and he took our boys in while we rafted in Columbus. They were loved & cared for while we were on our adventure and we’re so worn out that they were happy to sleep through the rainy night.”
“We had an amazing experience with this dog sitter! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and the property offers plenty of land for dogs to roam, explore, and really stretch their legs. Their sweet children were so gentle and playful with our pup, making the stay even more enjoyable. Overall, we give our experience a 10 out of 10!”

“Our pup looked like he had a blast. Brent helped out last minute while my fiancé is overseas and i work 12 hour shifts, was completely understanding and asked plenty of questions about how to care for our boy best. Would book again!!”
“My Suzy loves her Madison, and Madison puts up with the crazy fluff ball of unbridled doodle energy that is my Suzy. Suzy gets so excited when she sees Madison — it says everything about the bond she’s built with my girl. Madison treats my dog like her own, and that gives me such peace of mind.”

About: Im doing this full time. Im also doing this because I love and care for animals and their wellbeing. I believe finding someone good and kind for your fur babies matters. I make sure they get plenty of pets and attention. I don’t let their water run out and refill as much as possible especially during summer. I am understanding and patient with animals especially if they have high energy and need to be outside a bit more than others to get some exercise/ energy out. I care about animals period. I have a pretty big range of experience with different dogs. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at a time different sizes and ages. I’ve taken care of a diabetic cat (my baby she lived a very long life 19 years) I have taken care of a diabetic dog also.

I don’t like to leave my baby for more than 4-5 hours max. That’s why I offer going to drop in 3 times. I can always adjust the price accordingly. I don’t mind traveling to make sure your fur baby is taken care of throughout the day. I can take your fur baby walking giving them water and some love. If you have a fenced in yard I will still go and watch them outside you never know what could happen. I will update you as much as you would like.
“I can say nothing but good things. Great communication, flexible availability, and most importantly great with my high energy pup. I have peace of mind due to the wide variety of care options provided as I know that my pup is being cared for at the level expected.”

About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a young child. You name it I probably have experience with it! Animals are my true passion! I have two horses, three dogs, and two cats. I have experience farm and ranch sitting. On top of all this— I’m understanding! I’m understanding that each animal has it’s own quirks and I don’t judge an animal on that! My rates can be pretty flexible. If I strike your interest as a pet care provider please reach out to me and we can discuss rates. I work for myself and set my own schedule daily! I’m incredibly flexible. Your fur baby is my priority! Whether that be exercise, personal time and attention, special diet, rest, etc. Although I do not have a fenced in yard I do have several tethers for dogs. I offer walking as well. I have several kennels that are available. Feeding schedule is totally and completely flexible based on what your dog is used to. If you have a specific or special request more than likely I can accommodate.
About: I have had animals since I was a little baby. I love animals and believe they should be treated with love and care. I will provide the right care your animal is needed, just like if it was my own pet. I work full time Monday-Thursday from 8-3pm. I have plenty of time to take care of animals and I will do everything in my power to make sure your animal is well taken care of. I have a safe environment in my home. I live in a safe household and enough space for your animals to roam and play as they would need. I also have security cameras as well to provide extra protection.
About: Hey thank you for taking the time to view my profile, here's a little information about me: Currently I am enrolled in college majoring as a veterinarian technician. My goal is to succeed in helping and caring for as many animals as I can. As someone who has had extremely close bonds with every pet I've ever had in my life, I can also proudly say that they are not just animals. Our pets are like family. Animals are incrediblly smart and in a way are like humans. They deserve to be treated with love, gentleness and fully cared for. I can be reached at any convenience. I’m currently taking classes online therefore leaving me with more free time to help of those families in need of the extra hands. For pets staying with me I have an yard that leads into a 3 mile path that wraps around a lake which is perfect for pets that need to stretch their legs. But also in a pet owners home I am clean, responsible and worried about the pets safety at all times. I'm currently a stay at home mom, with plenty of free time during my schedule. I'm available Monday-Sunday, at all times. Please give me at most an hour to respond to requests during the day. And if reaching out overnight please allow a few hours for a response. Thank you! All pets will be have my full attention, and you will constantly be updated with plenty of pictures and info during their stay. I also highly recommend bringing a crate, or dog bed during your pets visit, so they have a spot that's dedicated to having their own space.
About: **Please note I am disabled and hard of hearing. I will always prefer texts over phone calls. **Check out what your babies get up to and the pictures/videos I didn’t end up sending on our Facebook or Instagram page, Zig Zag Wag pet care! I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, horses and livestock, rodents and reptiles, and everything from basic grooming including nail trims and baths to basic behavior training. (See safety section for further details) I have experience with basic first aid. I have pretty much free and short notice availability, thought I limit bookings on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS as my days off. I have a whole zoo worth of pets and need to stop by my own house throughout the day, so any house sitting will be based on regular visits. I have reliable transportation and excellent driving skills in case of needing to transport. My vehicle has a crash tested seat belt and I have a few crash tested harnesses if you do not have one, though providing your own sized for your dog is preferred. I will not provide transport for animals other than cats or dogs and cats and small dogs must be tolerant of being crated for the ride. I am great at working with your schedule with at least 2 hours notice, but Rover does not allow easy schedule changes. If you need to reduce your visits, CANCEL the booking and REBOOK with your new dates, as once Rover confirms your booking it won’t let you reduce the current rate. In your home, I offer basic cleaning services and can ensure any messes get cleaned. I can meet many varied needs and am meticulous with following your house rules for your pets. I do not offer boarding or allow client pets at my home. I will not provide food or other consumables, though I will confirm what treats your pets can have because all good pets deserve treats. I provide basic behavior assistance such as teaching your dog that jumping on people is inappropriate, basic tricks (sit, down, paw), leash manners, but I DO NOT OFFER PAID TRAINING. I am not a certified trainer in any capacity, though I have trained many of my own animals (including rats and cats!)
About: I have always loved animals. I started walking my neighbors dog when I was 15. I have dog sat for many ranging from family, friends, neighbors, and mutuals. I am a recent Auburn grad and do not currently have a full time job. Not many jobs offer me a flexible schedule like this does and I am trying to save money and keep my self busy post-grad. I am always available unless otherwise noted on my calendar. I do not have a dog in Auburn, only when I travel to Foley to stay with family is there a dog in the house. I will abide by the owners preferences but I don’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs and will take care of them as they are my own. I will give your dog as much attention as he or she wants.
About: I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I have been caring for pets my entire life and have a lot of experience with dogs. I work from home and I’m available to give your pet the attention they deserve while you are away. My home can be their home away from home. I care for all visitors like they are my own and spend tons of quality time with them. I love to take walks and I include at least 2 20-minute walks for each day your pet stays with me.
About: Wasn't allowed to have pets when I was young but as soon as I could, I treat them like I want to be treated because fur babies are an extension of the people that raise them I'm currently retired/disabled Army, I have nothing but time to be of service to service animals and non service animals. So when last minute stuff happens I'm the go-to for friends and family I have a fenced in yard and a screened off patio and can cage your pet or room them if potty trained or even let them sleep in the same space as me if they need constant human interaction. I have 2 dogs they can react to or be kept separate from in the house between the fenced yard and screened off patio. The garage is also screened off so the doors can be left open for more space and ventilation. It's a 2 floor home so if your pet doesn't play well with others, they'll never have to meet. Everyone that lives in the home shares 2 or more decades of pet care experience or are Army medics with experience in emergency medicine.

“Jennifer and her family were fantastic. They took excellent care of our dog and treated her as their own! Communication was great, and we really appreciated the opportunity to meet them before her stay. They also sent pictures during her stay which was great! We would absolutely book again!”
“Kaia was absolutely wonderful with our pup..she was quick to communicate and we felt very comfortable knowing our dog was in such capable hands. She is kind and warm and cares for your dog with love.”
“We needed someone to watch a very active 1.5yr old Brittany, and we are really picky about who watches our animals. Sandra was recommended and boarding with her and Mark was the best experience ever. Missy’s stay with them was literally a doggy vacation with a Giant yard to play in, long walks, huge professional kennel for her to lounge in, and, picture/video updates every day! They even have a TV in the temperature controlled kennel space so our girl could listen to tv like she is used to at our house. I look forward to using them again. They are a bit of a drive for me but I will use them every time over trying any of the 15 closer results rover showed me. It is well worth the peace of mind knowing that your dogs are being pampered not just boarded.”
“Kayla is the best. She showed patience and understanding for my furbaby whom never stayed with anyone before. He received lots of love and got a chance to have a play date.”
“Kara provided an excellent stay for my boys. They loved staying with her and her pups. She responded very quickly and provided daily photos. One of my boys have epilepsy and she made sure to administer his medication twice a day and send me updates after giving it to him. I will definitely be booking with Kara again😊😊.”
“Ollie loved his time with Megan and her family! He always looked so comfy and happy in his pictures. She always kept me updated and sent me pictures of how he was doing. Thank you for watching our fur baby!”
“Alona is absolutely amazing!! Very attentive and detailed. She communicates well with updates and she really put my mind at ease when I needed a dog sitter in a clutch. My 🐕 was so happy when I picked him up that he didn’t want to leave 😃 I will definitely call her to dog sit again. Thanks Alona!!!”
“Katie did such a great job watching Ellie while we were away. She was very considerate about making sure she had all the information about Ellie to make her stay as comfortable as possible. She also sent some many great pictures/videos and updates to put us at ease that she was being well taken care of.”
“Allison was the BEST. She sent me pics and videos all throughout the day. My pup got a little scratch and she informed me which is so responsible of her! Will definitely be using her for any future events where I need a dog sitter. 10/10 ????”
“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Thank you Jessica for watching our pup! We can tell that he had a blast with her family as well and that’s all that matters! Will be rebooking as soon as we come into town!!!”
“We were a little reluctant to leave Sophie and Lilah for a week while we were out of town. Thank goodness we found Robin, she took great care of our girls. She sent us pictures and videos everyday. In the pur daily pictures, our girls looked happy and even looked like they were smiling. It put our minds at ease and we could really relax knowing our pups were being well cared for. When we brought them home, they were exhausted from playing. We immediately booked another date with Robin. I highly recommend Robin if you need to board your pups. Great experience.”
“Great experience! Our dogs were well cared for, and we appreciated the photos, updates, and the wonderful interaction with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our pets!”
“Heather made sure that Toby felt right at home! She & her family loved on him & even let him ride with them in the car (one of his favorite things to do!). I highly recommend Heather for taking care of your dog & will use her again!”
“Brittany took great care of my dog while we were away. She was great with updates and photos and even took an adorable holiday photo :) I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
