Highly-rated overnight sitters - Rixey
“Truly appreciative of them taking care of my fur babies…took pics of them everyday and keep me informed of how they were doing…definitely would recommend 😊”
“So great! First time boarding my dog so I was nervous, but Jaxx was in great hands. She sent me photos and updates while I was gone. My dog got along great with her pup and they got to play in a fenced in yard and everything! Would take him back there if I went on another trip for sure.”
“Charlene and Felix were wonderful with my extra scared puppy. They provided warm and loving care with lots of pictures and videos. I would definitely feel comfortable using them again.”
“Tressa was absolutely amazing and super sweet! We will definitely use her for anytime we need a dog sitter! She gave lots of updates and pictures and even gave our dog Jasper a bath!!”
“Stephanie and family treated our babies as their own. Every time we got a picture, they looked very comfortable and loved. Would definitely take them back.”
“I was so happy to meet Joe and his girl Ace. Ginger seem at home. What was an even bigger relief was that Newt wasn't in hiding. We received a picture of Newt and Ace very casually in each other presence. Thank you Joe for taking care of our babies.”
“We were nervous to leave our dog since we had just moved to the area, but Bonnie took such good care of him and sent us updates with pictures to let us know how he was doing! We are very appreciative to Bonnie for how she cares for our dog and we will definitely request her for boarding or daycare services again!”
“Marci is great! I’m a travel nurse and I got stuck at work a snowstorm. Marci was super accommodating and my pups were well cared for while I was away. Thanks!”
“MY PUPS AND I LOVE AMBER!! I’m so sad that she doesn’t have availability during Memorial Day weekend! She’s the only Rover sitter I’ve used and will continue using her!!”
“The most amazing person to leave your baby with. My girl was in such good hands and loved her playmate. Will 100% be using her again! The videos and updates gave me such peace of mind.”
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“Thomas and his lovely family were the perfect sitters for our two dogs! Quick and comforting communication the whole time, tons of sweet photos & videos of our pups, and easy drop off & pick up. Clean home, spacious yard with grass, and friendly companions in Thomas’ 2 Rotties. No doubt my dogs would be thrilled to stay with Thomas again, and I’m thrilled to find someone that will love my dogs as much as I do while we’re out of town. Also a huge plus that Thomas knows more about dog behavior than most-I could tell my dog’s social skills greatly improved during their short stay! Don’t look anywhere else- Book Thomas!!”
“Very thankful for Tammy; our regular sitter was out for the weekend and we already made plans. Tammy stepped up on short notice and gave us great peace of mind. We have found our ‘new’ regular sitter!! Thanks, Tammy!!”
“Samantha & her family cared for Rosie so well, like she was part of the family! Rosie has a lot of energy and their family and their own dog have Rosie so much attention and opportunity to play! They were so kind and great with communication and flexibility. Rosie will miss her puppy friend Jetta and their family! Would definitely recommend:)”
“We left our elderly, high anxiety (high needs) yorkie (Libby) with Scout. We were nervous how Libby would handle the situation but under the care of Scout she did wonderful and appeared to have a fabulous time! We will definitely use her again when the need arises!”
“Jennifer and her family have taken such good care of Mowgli twice now. I have a hard time finding sitters that provide Mowgli the structure he needs - primarily downtime. He's suffered a recent injury, so rest was even more important than usual. Jennifer made sure that this young pup didn't overextend himself yet still received all the love in the world. She was totally capable of meeting Mowgli's high-maintenance needs: rest, supplements, oral/topical meds, and dental hygiene. I look forward to future visits when he's healed enough to play with the other pups in the house!!! I can't thank this family enough💕”
“Madison and Isaiaih did a great job sitting my dog . I enjoyed the videos and pictures they shared with me where I could see my dog happy and well taken care of . I will hire them again should I ever need a dog sitter in the future.”
“Hannah was great with my mom's dogs; and I received updates along with photos of them playing and snuggling. It's not easy taking care of another family's pets, and since I have never done rover before, it has eased my mind on the individual home boarding. I do recommend Hanah H for this service; she made it very easy and truly did care about them. Thanks for the love and attention they received over the weekend.”
About: Hi! I’m Alesha, a reliable and caring pet lover based in the area. I’m new to Rover, so I’m currently offering discounted rates to build my client base. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and can help with walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime. I’m dependable, responsive, and happy to send photo updates so you always know your pet is in good hands. I treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time but I’m looking to make extra money by hopefully walking your dog on weekends or after 5pm on weekdays. I enjoy dogs and being outside and can’t think of a better way to make some extra money than that! I have a black lab that can come on the walk with your pet or not, if you choose not that is fine. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or take him/her to a park either is fine.

“Ashleigh was great to work with and she took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She was flexible when I needed a couple extra drop in visits on short notice. So thankful!”
“Haley watched our 5 indoor/outdoor cats for 4 days while we were out of town. She took lots of photos and gave us detailed updates about how they were doing, which ones stuck around and which ones were on the go. She brought in some mail and packages, too. Haley made sure they had extra food available if they didn't show up, gave them fresh water, and cleaned out the litter box for them. They even got some play time in with somebody new, which I'm sure a treat for them! Thank you, Haley!”
“Lacy is truly amazing!! She is our go to regular sitter for our cat, and we always are extremely pleased with her and how well she cares for our baby, but this most recent time she truly went above and beyond for us. We got stranded in our travels because of the snow storm and she not only was able to stay with her for extra days, but the hvac unit also went out and our house lost heat! The temps dropped dangerously low and she helped us to troubleshoot the system for HOURS! Unfortunately the problem had to do with something outside our control and we needed to find an HVAC technician who could solve it. She stayed with our cat despite the cold and helped the hvac technician gain access to the house, answering questions as they arose, and worked with him until everything was fixed! She also made sure to drop the faucets and do everything she could to keep the house warm. She not only cared for our cat but she also saved our house from freezing pipes! We could not be more thankful for her and the amazing person she is!! People like her are rare and choosing her to care for your pets is truly a blessing! Thank you so much, Lacy!!”
“Brice exceeded my expectations and did a wonderful job looking after my cats! He was able to successfully give my cat Jax medicine twice a day. I received an update along with photos each visit, and know that my cats were well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Brice!”
About: I have had all size dogs since I was 12. I love that they love you unconditionally. I enjoy walking my dogs, and I can't help but laugh when they get the zoomies. I always try to be patient when they are unsure or need to take medicine. I work full time, but I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am available to come to your house to take of your animals needs. Your animal can also come my house for the weekend if needed. Please schedule in advance. I prefer to do a meet and greet, since I also have two rambunctious kids. I have two small sociable dogs that are both fixed. They stay in the kennel when I am at work, but when my husband has a break he will let them out. I have a large backyard that that is fenced in, and my neighborhood has sidewalks to walk dogs. My household is also high energy, but also love snuggle time and belly rubs.
“Aaliyah was so great! She kept us in the loop, had great communication, and provided lots of updates and photos! I definitely would recommend her to care for your fur babies”
About: Cats have always had a special place in my life, and I know that every feline has their own unique personality and needs. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care and attention, whether that means engaging playtime with kittens, gentle grooming, or quiet companionship for older cats. Since 2022, I’ve cared for a variety of cats throughout Central Arkansas, and I enjoy adapting to whatever makes them feel most comfortable. I like to take time before any booking to learn each cat’s routine and make sure I understand the details, from food preferences to litter box habits, medication schedules, or favorite hiding spots. I’ve also had experience giving medications and can follow any special instructions you provide to keep your cat healthy and happy. Some cats love to chase a toy mouse, others prefer a sunny nap with a calm presence nearby. Whatever your cat’s style, I’ll make sure they feel safe, respected, and cared for while you’re away.
“This was our first time using Rover, and Tabitha made it such a wonderful experience! She came by beforehand for a meet and greet, took thoughtful notes to make sure our girls were well cared for. Even our most skittish pup warmed up to her right away! Tabitha was punctual, sent plenty of pictures, and kept us updated throughout the visit. We’d be happy to book with her again in the future!”
About: I cannot remember a time in my life where I did not have a pet in my house. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, opossums, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. There is no animal I won't pet sit. I am a teacher on summer vacation, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets. I am available to look after them 7 days a week! I live in an apartment, so I am unable to keep your pet at my home, but I do have a dog park on the property, which I can use if your dog desires that kind of freedom. I love going on walks as long as the weather is safe for your pup, playing with their toys inside, or simply snuggling with them while they wait for you to return. I have experience with pets with different energy levels and personalities.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments for over 5 years, providing everything from daily walks and playtime to overnight stays. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior dog needing extra TLC, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I currently have a very flexible work schedule, which means I’m available for pet sitting and in-home visits throughout the day, evenings, and even weekends. This allows me to accommodate last-minute requests and provide consistent, attentive care for your dog when you need it most. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my priority! During in-home visits, I make sure your dog gets plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Each visit includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and playtime or a walk, depending on your dog’s needs. I also provide cuddles, companionship, and any medication if needed. I aim to keep your dog’s routine as normal as possible, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own space.
“I booked Tisha at the very last minute (due to a dog sitter cancellation) for some dog walks while I was out of town. Tisha is very responsive and kind -- I always felt like Zoe was in great hands! I feel so fortunate that we were able to find someone so great with only a day's notice! I highly recommend Tisha and would definitely book her again.”
“Amber is great! She was extremely responsive and helpful when we left town and needed someone to watch our cat. She is very friendly and easy to get along with, and she was wonderful with our cat, sending great pictures and often staying longer than she was required to. I will definitely call her again!”
About: Hi, I'm Renee and I have a deep affection for our furry (and non-furry) friends. I would be honored to share my love and care with your pet as you do the things you need to. I'm a good listener and highly adaptable so any special care your pet needs will not be a problem. Pets are as different as the many colors they come in and they deserve individual care. I am also open to critiques so any way I can be of better assistance please let me know. I look forward to serving your pet. See you soon! I work from home so your pets will get all of the attention they deserve! This allows me to offer a variety of services to fit your needs. I treat your pets like mine with access to the fenced backyard, treats, and toys! Mental and physical exercise is important followed by a nap!
About: I grew up in the country in a house with all kinds of animals! I’ve had many dogs and cats throughout my life big and small! I even had a pet squirrel and raccoon that we had to nurse back to health! I love animals so much. I think they are little angels on earth. I currently have a little maltshi dog that is 11 years old. She is my whole world. I take her everywhere. She is super sweet and also loves having other dogs around since she is an only child. I am currently doing online school so I am at home 24/7. I have a two story townhouse and I live in a community with tons of areas with parks for dogs to play. My dog loves going on walks in the neighbor with me. We also have a huge window (that’s about as big as the wall) that the dogs can look out of and watch squirrels and see our big back yard. I will love your dog like my own. I will walk them frequently and let them sleep with me at night! I have multiple dog beds they can also sleep on. I have tons of dog toys (I think over 50) so they won’t ever need to bring anything. I also have many different types of dog treats so if you say it’s okay I will give them treats from time to time as well. Lil Miss and I will look after your baby. Give them sooo much love and attention and cuddles. They don’t have to ever be in a cage at my place and they can totally sleep on the furniture. My casa is your dogs casa. They will feel at home or like they are on a vacation with me.
“Ariela did a good job looking after our two cats while we were out of the country. I would not hesitate to recommend her. This was the first time we used Rover and we were satisfied with the services.”

About: My name is Angela. I worked as a kennel/doggie daycare manager at an Animal Clinic. I’m very familiar with administrating medicine to your fur babies if needed and being aware of signs of distress(stroke, dehydration Anything out of the usual) I already do some house/pet sitting for some vet clients now but would love to meet more people through this app. I would love to give your fur babies lots of love during my stay to offer them a stress free environment until you return home. Boarding is not for every dog or cat, and that’s why I want to provide a loving, caring and stress free home environment for them. I’m here to help! My life revolves around fur babies. They can sleep all day, play or just relax. Your babies will fit into my life no matter how they choose to spend their day. We treat every fur baby as our own. We have four dogs so they will have built in playmates. Cuddles on the couch is a must❤️
About: Caring for animals is my life’s passion and my favorite thing to do. I make sure every animal I meet feels loved. The time I spend with animals is very therapeutic for me. I have 4 years of experience with animal care! I started off with one neighbor who needed me to drop in and check on her dogs. I fell in love and I have been doing this ever since. I am always looking for new opportunities to bond with pets. I can easily match their energy to cater to their needs. I will play, rub, or provide outside time as long as they want. If needed I can help with training basic commands. I also have experience administering oral and injected medication with dogs and cats. I have a very open schedule so I am very flexible with timing. I love caring for and being in the presence animals so I will try my best to accommodate your schedule. I pay attention to what animals are trying to communicate with me whether they are anxious or just want their own space. Animals can sense that they can trust me and trust goes a long way when caring for them. I am very careful and cautious. Safety is my top priority.

About: I have been around animals my entire life! I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to care for their pets! I have great experience with puppies but I’m open to learning more about the care of elder pets. I also have experience with multiple breeds, big and small, and understand that each pet requires a different approach. I have a Pomeranian-Dachshund mix named Blue and he is practically my child!! I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone new and how important it is to trust that person. If you give me the opportunity to care for your fur-baby, I promise to become that trusted friend! I am currently a student so I have a very flexible schedule. I am always available in the afternoons and on the weekends to care for your pet! If you have any questions about my availability please message me! Depending on your pet and their needs, my care for them can differ. For example, a puppy with lots of energy and little training, I would include lots of play and (if asked) some basic training. If I am caring for an older pet who prefers calm visits, I will relax with them and take the visit slow. Each pet is unique and I will care for them accordingly. The owner’s comfort always comes first so if you have special instructions, that is always a priority.

About: I have had pets and cared for others pets my whole adult life. I have cared for, bathed, walked given medicine to fur babies of all ages. I do not have an outside job so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to work with most schedules during the week. Contact me and we can make a plan! I have a fenced yard, a doggy door and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby/babies company. I am ready and willing to take instructions and care for your baby in a way you feel most comfortable. If they need to be crated, I can crate them. Whatever is needed. Pet care is my focus. It is a dogs world in my home and I am home most of the time. I am a home body and try to run the needed errands when I don’t have pups. I have a fenced in backyard with a doggy door so they can go in and out when they want. I have 2 mini dachshunds to keep your fur baby company and they love when friends come over. I put all pups in my room at night with the door closed. I can crate your pup/s, they can sleep on a doggy bed on the floor or sleep on the bed with me…whatever they prefer. I feed pups separately to make sure all pets are safe during feeding time. I have gates on all my bedroom doors so there is plenty of space to separate all.

About: Hey I’m Hannah! My Experience - From the time I was born I was raised with animals.Throughout the years, I've owned 6 different dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits, 7 ducks, 12 chickens, 1 beta fish and 1 hamster. My Dog - I rescued a Yorkie from a puppy mill in July of 2018. I named her Franky and we've been inseperable since! My Approach - I prefer to use positive reinforcement and treats when training a dog to obey commands. I can give your pet all of the pets and cuddles but can also respect their space if they’re more independent. I am flexible with pet care, but would prefer to have at least three days notice to work around my schedule. I am able to do local services as well as services within the same state. If I must travel for overnight services, I would like at least a week notice. I do not currently offer daycare or sitting within my home, but I am available to come to you in the event that you book with me!
About: Hello! I recently retired from the army due to medical issues; therefore, I have nothing but time on my hands! I am unable to hold a traditional job now, so I decided to help others and their pets instead. I have one Pomsky who’s a little brat, but he’s the sweetest thing. My rescued German shepherd had to be put down recently due to MRSA. He had more medical issues than you can probably name. Because of this, I am pretty well versed in helping dogs with crazy medical conditions. If you have any questions, please don’t be shy to ask! 💕 Due to my military medical retirement, I have more time on my hands than most people. Unable to hold a regular job now, pet care is easily the most enjoyable thing for me. I just moved to an apartment downtown Little Rock, since homes are so expensive now days. Due to this move, there’s a high possibility I would have to bring my Pinsky with me. He is very playful and has never had any issues with other dogs or cats. He is also crate trained and potty trained. I added boarding and day-sitting for those special situations some people may have. Having a dog who had very special requirements for care and weird schedules required for care, I completely understand that there are some people who struggle to find the right sitter or just any help at all. So I’ll seldomly accept boarding/doggy day-care for those who are okay with their pup inside an apartment.
About: I cannot remember a time in my life where I did not have a pet in my house. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, opossums, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. There is no animal I won't pet sit. I am a teacher on summer vacation, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets. I am available to look after them 7 days a week! I live in an apartment, so I am unable to keep your pet at my home, but I do have a dog park on the property, which I can use if your dog desires that kind of freedom. I love going on walks as long as the weather is safe for your pup, playing with their toys inside, or simply snuggling with them while they wait for you to return. I have experience with pets with different energy levels and personalities.
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, but real experience come from veterinary clinics and my dog that I have raised and trained for 3 years I currently have open availability, so I can dedicate plenty of time for walking, playtime, feeding, and companionship! Your pets will have my undivided attention! If needed, I can care for your fur baby by providing them with a big fenced in backyard, a very affectionate and playful Australian Shepherd, and a spacious kennel if you wish for them to be in there!
About: Hallo, I'm Mariah! I've grown up around animals all my life, from dogs to horses! I've had several Chow Chows and a Great Dane and they all lived happy full lives until they unfortunately passed away from old age. I also use to house sit for my aunt since she traveled a lot and she had a special needs dog and several cats so I do have experience in that field. My family's ranch out in Weatherford, Texas is home to over 25 dogs that I normally take care of when I'm out there every once in awhile! I have volunteered several times with the Yuma Humane Society as well as volunteered at a Yuma Veterinarian Clinic as a receptionist for a few weeks. I give awesome belly rubs and I am CPR certified. I have two dogs, Maui and Hooligan, they are both rescues and they enjoy meeting new friends! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me! I work a super early shift with my full time job as a data scientist (3am-11am) but I can adjust to any time for drop off/pick up and the pet's schedule. I have a medium fenced grassy yard. There is a small doggy pool available for any doggos that like to lay in water or swim. I'm normally okay with allowing the pet to sleep on my bed but only with pet parent's approval! My boyfriend also lives with me and he of course loves dogs so your furbaby will definitely get plenty of attention!
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have experience mostly with larger breeds. I would dog and cat sit for friends and family and make sure they get all the love and cuddles they deserve. Working with animals has always been my passion and this is a way that I get to help others and get my animal fix that keeps me going ❤️ I work full time from home until 2:15pm and have a very flexible schedule. I love to take walks throughout the day and play with my cats who love to cuddle and lay with me while I work. Being able to play with the pets while I work makes things so much more fun ☺️ Since I live in an apartment I don't have a yard but our complex is very dog friendly and great areas to walk and let the dogs play. I currently have two cats who love to cuddle and play. When we sit dogs we take them to the dog park or dog lake to get fresh air and play inside the home. I also have a 3 year old who absolutely loves animals and pet sitting has been a great way to teach her about caring for animals and their safety. We're a very active family who love to go out fishing and spending time outside or in bed snuggling up our furry friends ❤️

“Truly appreciative of them taking care of my fur babies…took pics of them everyday and keep me informed of how they were doing…definitely would recommend 😊”
“So great! First time boarding my dog so I was nervous, but Jaxx was in great hands. She sent me photos and updates while I was gone. My dog got along great with her pup and they got to play in a fenced in yard and everything! Would take him back there if I went on another trip for sure.”
“Charlene and Felix were wonderful with my extra scared puppy. They provided warm and loving care with lots of pictures and videos. I would definitely feel comfortable using them again.”
“I was so happy to meet Joe and his girl Ace. Ginger seem at home. What was an even bigger relief was that Newt wasn't in hiding. We received a picture of Newt and Ace very casually in each other presence. Thank you Joe for taking care of our babies.”
“We were nervous to leave our dog since we had just moved to the area, but Bonnie took such good care of him and sent us updates with pictures to let us know how he was doing! We are very appreciative to Bonnie for how she cares for our dog and we will definitely request her for boarding or daycare services again!”
“Marci is great! I’m a travel nurse and I got stuck at work a snowstorm. Marci was super accommodating and my pups were well cared for while I was away. Thanks!”
“MY PUPS AND I LOVE AMBER!! I’m so sad that she doesn’t have availability during Memorial Day weekend! She’s the only Rover sitter I’ve used and will continue using her!!”
“The most amazing person to leave your baby with. My girl was in such good hands and loved her playmate. Will 100% be using her again! The videos and updates gave me such peace of mind.”
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“Thomas and his lovely family were the perfect sitters for our two dogs! Quick and comforting communication the whole time, tons of sweet photos & videos of our pups, and easy drop off & pick up. Clean home, spacious yard with grass, and friendly companions in Thomas’ 2 Rotties. No doubt my dogs would be thrilled to stay with Thomas again, and I’m thrilled to find someone that will love my dogs as much as I do while we’re out of town. Also a huge plus that Thomas knows more about dog behavior than most-I could tell my dog’s social skills greatly improved during their short stay! Don’t look anywhere else- Book Thomas!!”
“Samantha & her family cared for Rosie so well, like she was part of the family! Rosie has a lot of energy and their family and their own dog have Rosie so much attention and opportunity to play! They were so kind and great with communication and flexibility. Rosie will miss her puppy friend Jetta and their family! Would definitely recommend:)”
“We left our elderly, high anxiety (high needs) yorkie (Libby) with Scout. We were nervous how Libby would handle the situation but under the care of Scout she did wonderful and appeared to have a fabulous time! We will definitely use her again when the need arises!”
“Jennifer and her family have taken such good care of Mowgli twice now. I have a hard time finding sitters that provide Mowgli the structure he needs - primarily downtime. He's suffered a recent injury, so rest was even more important than usual. Jennifer made sure that this young pup didn't overextend himself yet still received all the love in the world. She was totally capable of meeting Mowgli's high-maintenance needs: rest, supplements, oral/topical meds, and dental hygiene. I look forward to future visits when he's healed enough to play with the other pups in the house!!! I can't thank this family enough💕”
“Hannah was great with my mom's dogs; and I received updates along with photos of them playing and snuggling. It's not easy taking care of another family's pets, and since I have never done rover before, it has eased my mind on the individual home boarding. I do recommend Hanah H for this service; she made it very easy and truly did care about them. Thanks for the love and attention they received over the weekend.”
About: Hi! I’m Alesha, a reliable and caring pet lover based in the area. I’m new to Rover, so I’m currently offering discounted rates to build my client base. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and can help with walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime. I’m dependable, responsive, and happy to send photo updates so you always know your pet is in good hands. I treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time but I’m looking to make extra money by hopefully walking your dog on weekends or after 5pm on weekdays. I enjoy dogs and being outside and can’t think of a better way to make some extra money than that! I have a black lab that can come on the walk with your pet or not, if you choose not that is fine. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or take him/her to a park either is fine.
“Courtney was a wonderful sitter for our dog! I think Flossie felt right at home and had plenty of space and time to run around and get her energy out and also snuggle.”
“Super sweet, communicative and caring! Azalea was so good at keeping up with messaging update photos while I was in my trip. And super understanding when I didn’t have exact dates for my trip! Definitely recommend”
About: What sets me apart is that I focus on helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and part of the household while their owners are away. I have experience caring for both younger and older dogs, including pets that need a calmer environment, extra patience, or more frequent bathroom breaks. I try to keep pets on a consistent routine and pay attention to their behavior, comfort, and energy level so I can adjust care to their needs. I also understand how important communication is for pet parents, so I provide regular updates, photos, and short videos during their stay. Pets in my care are treated with kindness, supervision, and respect. I aim to create a calm environment where they can relax and feel secure rather than stressed or isolated. I structure my schedule to ensure pets are never left alone many hours at a time. I make it a priority to ensure pets are fed, visited regularly, given plenty of attention, and made to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their parents are away I treat pets like part of the family and work to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they are in my care. In my home, pets are welcome in the common living areas so they can feel relaxed and included. I have a large backyard for supervised outdoor time and provide regular walks, playtime, attention, and companionship throughout the day based on each pet’s needs and routine.
