Personalized care for your dog or cat - Houghton
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Houghton
“Carina and Santiago were absolutely wonderful! I couldn’t have asked for better sitters for Tucker and Buster. From the moment we connected, they were communicative, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. They made me feel completely at ease while I was away for almost two days. I could tell my pups were happy, well-loved, and in great hands the entire time. I’m so grateful for the care and attention they gave, it meant the world to me. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for sitters who truly go above and beyond. Thank you both so much!”
“The "happy dogs" enviroment Miriam has created is perfect for our very social Husky Keesha and her playmates. Each stay is like an extra long playdate for her. Now it will take a full day of sleeping it off for her to recuperate. Excellent!!”
“Dan is a great sitter and I would have no issues using him again and recommending him to others! He treated my boys exactly how I treat them, cuddling with them, playing with them and even letting them sleep with him at night, which is a huge one for them, as they are little guys and quite used to that. I was gone for ten days and I had no worries as Dan kept me updated with photos and videos of how they were doing. When I picked them up they were happy to see me but just as clearly happy to spend time with Dan and his adorable pup, Linus. It gave me great peace of mind on my trip and I would definitely use him again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“My dog was so well taken care of! Over a week I was sent multiple pictures and videos of her playing and interacting with their household along with how she was doing. 11/10 would book again”
“Ashley took great care of Luna. She was very prompt in communication and even sent updates/videos of Luna having a blast. I am happy to trust Ashley with my fur baby and we will definitely be returning customers.”
“In the past, when we travel, our biggest dilemma has been finding someone to watch Josie, our 10 year old, anxious pup. Well, if Ron will have us back, we found our human. Ron was great in that he sent several images to show us that she was relaxed and comfortable in his home. She had his little poodle to keep her company; she really enjoys being around other dogs, so that was perfect. We were able to relax and enjoy our time away, because Ron was on it.”
“David was graciously flexible with drop off/pick up time which allowed us to do a late night stargazing program. He also has a great yard that my dogs seemed to thoroughly enjoy. We were very pleased and booked a second day.”
“Cameron and Tyson were absolutely great with my pup. They sent pictures of her every day and made me feel so at ease. Thank you both so much for watching Honey for me while I was away 🫶”
“Sylvie is just the best.. My puppy must have enjoyed her extended stay, I think she even added on a few pounds.. Happy puppy even happier Pet parent.. Marley learned to play & jump around with other dogs.. I loved Sylvies videos... So glad I found her on Rover.. 😍”
“Christina did a great job! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and took great care of ours. No issues whatsoever. Sent us frequent updates and photos, which were much appreciated. 10/10! Definitely recommend!”
“Our dog is totally content when we take him to stay with Sheila and her husband Dave. He is loved and well cared for when he stays there. I would highly recommend Sheila and Dave!”
“Cashmere was well taken care of by Ana. My little dog got to play with Ana’s little dog. The socialization was great. Cashmere was taken on walks in the neighborhood. Ana did a great job communicating to me on a regular basis. She sent pictures and video often. We had a god experience.”
“Rosie loves staying with Kay and Tim. Cricket and Sammy are very welcoming and it gives Rosie a chance to interact with other dogs while her humans are away. We appreciate the flexibility and graciousness of Kay. She offers the perfect home away from home!!”
“Vicky watched my pups for a second time and everything went great 😊 she sent lots of pictures, updates every day, and my dogs were happy as ever when I picked them up. She’s awesome and I plan on using her for future dog sitting!”
“We couldn’t have asked for better sitters for our dog, Ollie. Water and John (along with their sweet dog, Poppy) were incredibly kind and welcoming, making Ollie feel right at home from the start. They kept us updated with regular texts and photos, which truly put our minds at ease while we were away. When Ollie had a little trouble adjusting to the new environment, Water and John went above and beyond to help him settle in comfortably—even letting him sleep in bed with them, which we really appreciated! Their genuine care and flexibility made all the difference. We would absolutely recommend Water and John to anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable pet sitters. Ollie was in wonderful hands, and we’re so grateful for their exceptional care!”
“Beth and her husband are wonderful, since the very first moment I felt the connection that they have with animals, Naty was very lucky to spend the 4th of July weekend with them. Beth was so nice and ask me if she can give Naty some extra food because she did not want to eat at the beginning... thank you so much 🩷!”
“Barbara is a great communicator and sent lots of pictures and videos. She took care my dog and he seemed so comfortable in her home. I have already booked his next stay!”

Cat caregivers near you - Houghton
“I highly recommend Alora. I travel a lot for work and it gives me peace of mind knowing my 2 cats, Kiki and Jax, are being cared for by an attentive and responsible person. Alora sends me pics and updates each day even when I was overseas and using WhatsApp since I couldn't get the Rover updates.”
“Maggie is a delight! She took great care of my almost 18y.o. kitty. My kitty has lots of special needs. Maggie has a gentle approach which was just what my girl needs. I couldn't be happier with the care she took of my home. You would lucky to have Maggie as your sitter!!!”
“Robin was brilliant caring for my 7 cats. They were all very shy, but by the end of the week she was able to pet them. Pictures and updates every day were just wonderful! Highly recommend her for your cat care.”
“Rachel was wonderful with my cat giving him affection and play time while I was away. She was flexible and knows what she's doing, always checked in and helped make my time away a little less stressful for me and my little guy.”
“Liz did a perfect job with our four cats! My older and more skittish kitty even came out for a group play session with her!! Liz fulfilled all of our care needs and more, and my cats clearly enjoyed her company and care. She sent soo many great pictures, which really helped with my missing them. She is especially skilled at snapping action shots! We will definitely book with Liz again~!”
“Albamaria 'gets' our pets (dog and cat) in their individuality, which they and we appreciate. She provides reliable, experienced, confident, caring, and communicative pet-care drop-ins. We highly recommend her!”
“Allison is wonderful! We’ve had her check on our cats multiple times now and she always does such a great job. She even popped by a day early because I forgot to fill up my cats automatic feeders and one wasn’t going off. She’s a life saver for sure! I’d recommend her to anyone & everyone :)”
“Barbara took great care of our kitty, Lucy. Lucy really enjoyed her time with her, sitting on her lap and playing with her flying toy feather snake. That meant the world to us, knowing our fur baby was in great hands during our time away. Barbara sent pics which brought smiles to us from afar.”
“Marie has been a life saver. She started home visits for my 2 kitties last minute after I experienced a medical issue and has been consistent, prompt and very flexible. I'd highly recommend her,”
“Dee and Tatiana are very kind, gentle people and they took wonderful care of our cat, Burly while we were on vacation. (Also watered plants and checked mail) They stayed longer than required each day and sent us photos and loving reports every day. Because of my incomplete planning, we bumped into each other on the last day, when we returned, and they took that day off the total cost, which they really did not have to do!!”
“She was great with my kitties- playing with them & taking cute pictures of them & updating their status in a timely manner. My kitties clearly enjoyed her company while we were away. We will definitely work with her again!”
About: I have always had cats since the day I was born, and I’m very experienced looking after cats of all ages and temperaments. We’ve had tiny kittens all the way up to 15 year old seniors, requiring different levels of care and attention. I’m not scared of cats and will happily spend as much or as little time with them as they want (they always get to decide, naturally). I’ve looked after cats with various dietary needs, as well, so happy to coax and cater to even the pickiest eaters!
“He was great with 3 cats. He had them at his house just for the day and he stayed with them and kept them out of trouble. Also offered to carry my stuff alot of times which is nice because these cats are heavy. Was worth the money. Will book again if needed.”
“I can’t recommend Megan as a dog sitter highly enough! When our original plans fell through just a week before my vacation, she stepped in without hesitation and immediately put my mind at ease. From day one, her communication was outstanding — she sent daily updates and adorable pictures that truly showed how much care and attention she was giving to my dog. It felt like she treated my furry friend like her own. Beyond just excellent care, she even left a thoughtful little note for us, which was such a sweet and personal touch. Her professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals went far beyond what I expected. If you want someone who will not only watch your dog but truly care for them like family, look no further — she is simply the best!”
About: I’ve been a dog whisperer since I was a child. I have had dogs (one or two at a time) my whole life. We lost our last dog last year and don’t want the long term commitment of a new dog at this stage in our lives, but would love to take care of other people’s dogs. It is just myself and my husband in our household. I work from home part-time and if there are days that I would be showing property (realtor) I would not schedule a Rover sitting job. Also, I babysit a small child every Wednesday and Thursday. I have a fully fenced yard and no other dogs. I have no problem having dogs stay inside my home. I am happy to go to the client’s home as well.
“I wish Rover would let me tip Carla more! Have booked for a couple years, and Carla has been reliable every visit. My shy cats feel comfortable coming out to see her when she checks in.”
“Audra is always super responsive and communicative, which I super appreciate when I'm away from my cats. Finding a cat sitter can be so hard bc cats are so picky but even my crankiest girl comes out for Audra which is honestly the highest praise I can offer.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Houghton
“I am delighted that Shawna and Ethan R took my dog for a day. They welcomed us warmly and were patient with his puppy behavior. He received great attention and supervision while he played outside with their 2 dogs of similar size. I received several photos, and he came home happy and ready to rest. We had a great experience! I knew he was well cared for, and he had a great time!”
“Ashley and her family are the best! We were in town to deal with some business and with varying hours and she happily was very flexible about what time we needed to pick our Lily up! Our dog had a blast and was pulling on the leash to get back to the door when we brought her back after the first day. Ashley provided walks, training sessions,rest time and playtime. Our dog is on a low-fat diet for medical reasons and she conscientiously gave her the treats we brought. She sends several videos during the day so you can see your baby. There were a couple other dogs in care at the same time and she did an excellent job of introducing and monitoring the dogs. Overall a wonderful experience! We don’t live in Tucson but if we ever return for a visit we would definitely use her again and we highly recommend her to others ❤️”
“Water and John are very warm and friendly. They love dogs and are wonderful, communicative caregivers. They were extremely accommodating when I had a last minute request for daycare for my dog. Thank you to you both for being the kind and caring human beings that you are.”
“Allison was kind, friendly, and a great sitter for Katniss! She showed care and attention with Katniss and was very flexible with us as our plans changed with our reservation! She showed knowledge of introducing dogs to each other, as her dogs became friends with Katniss right away! We are so appreciative of Allison and Katniss is always looking forward to her next play date with her dogs!”
“Sylvie is wonderful! I felt very comfortable dropping my puppy Frankie off for daycare knowing she was in trusted hands. I loved getting video updates while she was getting to know and play with the other dogs. She was very happy from her day of play and we are looking forward to more daycare with Sylvie in the future!”
“We left our Chihuahua Jack Russell mix with Barbara for a whole long day while we came to town to attended a graduation. We were apprehensive about leaving our baby anywhere mostly because he can be kinda crazy lol but she instantly made us feel very comfortable from the moment we walked in the door. You can tell that she genuinely loves dogs and is very comfortable with them. Her home is very inviting and secure and just perfect for four-legged friends. There were two other "guests" there and I kind of felt like I was leaving him at a little doggy party. He seemed happy from the get-go so that made us happy to leave him there. She was also very flexible with our time to drop off and pick up. And very easy to communicate with sending us pictures throughout the day. Her rate was great too! I would highly recommend Barbara and we'll definitely use her again again if the need arises! Thanks for loving Henry for us yesterday Barbara!”
“I have truly appreciated Alex and how he has helped care for my dog during the days that I work. He quickly responds to messages, he is thorough, and he has been flexible with scheduling. I believe my dog is living a better life now that she can spend time with Alex and his pugs several days a week!”
“We are so happy to have found Kay! She is very knowledgeable and caring. When our plans changed last minute she was very accommodating. Our dog Hobbs is an energetic cattle dog and Kay knows how to handle him. Hobbs loves staying with her and playing with her dog Cricket. Kay's husband also plays with Hobbs. We highly recommend Kay, and we have already booked many upcoming dates with her this summer.”
“She’s amazing!! I’m pretty picky about my dog sitters because my dog is a very high energy dog who needs direction and tends to get anxious at new places. Deb’s been working with him and he now LOVES going to spend the day with her and does awesome over there! Always comes home all tuckered out. She’s my new go to person! :)”

“Stephanie did a wonderful job. Sadie was a little or a lot high maintenance this stay, as it was a last minute reservation without her routine and lots of home drama, but Stephanie took it in stride and took good care of her. Lots of “extras”. I don’t want to create expectations, but she went above and beyond!”
About: Professional dog trainer of over two decades seeks clients as she moves to Arizona from California. After 25 years of working with a variety of animals from farm animals to domesticated animals to wild animals, I brought my worth in the Dog training community animals, I hope that you understand that I am only keeping my prices high because that’s what I’m worth. I’m not worth $12 a walk. I’m worth more than that. My Dog clients miss me greatly and when they hear my name, they do happy dance dances to this day. I am currently open for daycare and boarding at my house. I also do housesitting and I’m there except for one hour in the morning and one hour at night when I go check on my dogs. I’m also available for drop ins and things but I’d like to get to know you and your dog before I do that on a more consistent basis. I’ve worked with Rover since 2012 and I’ve had nothing but positive reviews and experiences with Rover; I can provide nothing but positive references if asked and look forward to speaking to you. My prices may be higher than my competitors, but they aren’t my competitors. They are people that are unqualified to do this job that are being paid to do the job that they aren’t doing from my experience and in my opinion. I consider myself a “stay at home animal trainer” as I train most clients online, from my home. My schedule is flexible/adaptable to what *your dog & you* will need while at my house, during drop ins and walks, while I am pet sitting, or doing dog training. I have a small fenced patio with grass and turf in the front of my apartment and plenty of walking areas! I am near a dog park no one goes to & can go there if you sign a waiver. :) I NO longer accept dogs from multiple homes due to insurance policies. Payment is due half on meet and greet day and half on day your dog is dropped off.
“Karen and Brennen were amazing and took great care of my dog. We had a meet and greet beforehand that make me feel that my dog was going to be really safe and happy with them. They send me several pictures during the days my dog stayed with them. Moreover, my always seemed happy when I picked him up. Definitely will leave Max in their care again”
“Steve did a great job with our rambunctious 5 month old puppy. She came home exhausted after her play dates! Worked out great, would definitely use him again imif in the area.”
About: My parents told me my first word was dog. I have loved dogs from the moment I entered this world. I got my first dog when I was 8 and it was fully my responsibility to care for him. He was my baby and I wanted him to be apart of everything I did. Now I have my own kiddos who love dogs more than anything. They are eager to have pups around and they love helping out with them. I stay at home so your pet will have 24 hour care. I have a HUGE yard where your pup can play and great paths for walking. I also live right around the corner from a huge dog park if you want your pup to socialize I would be happy to take them there as well! I have a fenced in yard that has shade all hours of the day. My home is dog friendly and I will be happy to Crate your pup if I step away so that your dog will be safe at all times.
“Sally is great! She was very friendly and welcoming to our dog, Finnegan. Sally was also super communicative and flexible with our schedule. Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Christina is amazing! We weren't too sure (overprotective fur parents) so we asked to book a day care to test out how comfortable they would be with her two dogs. They seamed to fit right in. Already booked a future stay. So far so good and we are looking forward to dropping them off in the near future. 😃”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Houghton
“Josephine was great with Attila. And…he took to Josephine right away. Josephine was calm with the intro and interacted with him throughout the walk. We look forward to many more walks together.”
“Larry did a great job with Ellie. He was attentive to her needs and communicated along the way. I’m excited to have Larry as my new walker and seems to be a great fit. I would recommend Larry for anyone needing a dog walker for their fur child.”
About: I have walked, fed, bathed, and taken care of dogs of all different breeds and ages. I have enjoyed all my experiences from short walks to sitting for several weeks! I just graduated from the University of Arizona and will not be starting my new job until August 2026, so I have plenty of free time during the summer to play and have adventures with all kinds of pets! I play and let my and my client's pets roam free when in a closed off area, such as the backyard. When taking walks, I make sure to keep the pets on a leash with extra poop bags!
“Allison is a great dog walker my husky came home happy and panting. I could tell Allison is experienced with dogs and I felt she would keep my girl happy and safe on their walk.”
“It's always a joy to have Lily walk the dogs. We were watching our daughters dog who was a little unfriendedly the first time meeting her (which was normal for this dog). Lily knows and understands dogs and was able to have the dog get comfortable with her. Both dogs came back tired and exhausted but very happy from their morrning walk. Highly recommend her!”
“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”
“Azul loves Rachel she walks at her pace and Rachel is very responsible. Azul seems happy when she comes back home and when Rachel comes to pick her up for her walk Azul is very happy.”
About: I grew up having dogs and taking care of them. I also have 3 pups of my own that’s I’ve worked to train and care for for the last 4 years. I will care for your pet as my own and make sure they’re comfortable and safe while in my care. I currently work full time at Raising Canes and am looking for something to fill my time that I enjoy. I am very flexible and am able to work around your schedule to be able to meet your pets needs. I always make sure to supervise so I know they are safe and also make sure they don’t get into things they aren’t supposed to but overall ensuring they have a safe and clean place to relax and hangout.
About: With years of diverse pet care experience, I know how much trust and routine matter — and of course, a good tail wag or purr, too. I’ve been caring for pets like they’re family since I was young, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I’ll also make sure your home stays just the way you left it — plants watered, things tidy, and pets happy. I’m flexible with days and hours. I’m currently a college student, however I only have class a couple times a week. We can work something out! With a calm, caring approach, I keep pets comfy, routines intact, and homes secure. Some things I find important are feeding, walking, playtime, plant watering, and cleaning — I care for your pets and your home like they’re my own while you’re away!
About: I would love to take care of your baby! You can feel comfort and relax knowing our family loves dogs and will treat them as part of our own. Grew up with dogs, owned 2 English bulldogs for 13 years and have dropped in many times for pet-sitting for folks on vacations, etc. I know how important peace of mind is when you have to leave your furry loved ones. I have flexibility and whatever your dog needs to be happy while you are away is fine with me! If they like walks or just want to play and hang out, etc. We live in a cul-de-sac, yard is not fenced, so all potty breaks will be monitored and on leash. Lots of neighborhood to walk if needed. We do not have a dog right now, so...friendly kiddos around after school to help give them all the attention they can get! We also welcome small stock animal care if you go out of town (rabbit, Guinea pig, turtle, etc) We have 1 rabbit with a spare cage on top! I'm a Mom, & also working part time hours so I have a flexible schedule. Love to get out and go for walks myself and love pet companions to join! Your baby is my baby when here! Our yard is large but unfenced. So all potty breaks are leashed and done with me. (And frequent as well). Can help crate train if you wish too.
About: I’m a U of A student currently on summer break! I’m still available during the school year but a little less flexible. I’m also deaf but that doesn’t affect my ability to provide excellent care for your pets. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, so caring for them feels like second nature to me. I have hands on experience with everything from high-energy dogs that need strong leadership to quiet cats that just want their own space. What really sets me apart is my technical background. I completed a year-long Vet Tech program in high school, which taught me how to properly handle animals and monitor their health. Because I have a senior cat and have had older dogs in the past, I am an expert at administering medications and supplements. I know how to be gentle but firm to make sure they get what they need without being stressed out. I’m not just there to watch your pets, I’m there to make sure they are happy and safe. Whether it’s going for a long hike with an energetic dog or making sure a senior cat’s litter box is spotless and their routine is followed exactly, I treat every pet like they are my own. I'm observant, patient, and very comfortable with all breeds and sizes! I have a flexible schedule. I’m almost always home so I will have time plenty of time to be with your fur babies. . . Anything you need me to do for your fur babies. I can stay overnight if needed. I can also stay all day to keep your fur babies company.
About: Hi there, I'm Lisandra! I have a history of caring for over 6 dogs, along with experience in caring for reptiles and fish, I bring a wealth of pet experience. Previously, I dedicated my summers to walking two golden retrievers daily, ensuring they got the exercise they needed. Though my school commitments grew, my passion for pet care remains strong. I am currently in online classes so I have a lot of time during the day and in the evening for walks and drop ins I will try to be friends with your pets by the end of are time together. I can let your pets out, play with them,I can fill up food and water when need or, just sit with your pets if they have anxiety issues. My dog has separation anxiety and I can understand how knowing there anxious can rub off on you.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior pets, making me adaptable to different needs. I’m skilled with crate training, potty training, and teaching basic commands. I also care for my cat, giving me experience with a variety of pet temperaments. What sets me apart is my patient, positive-reinforcement approach, ensuring your pets feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s energetic playtime, puppy training, or gentle care for seniors, I’m here to provide a stress-free, loving environment for your furry family members! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I prioritize flexibility and availability. I am currently taking a break from my career and have no work commitments at this time. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment for pets. I have a pet-friendly space free from hazards, with secure areas for play and relaxation. For overnight stays or extended visits, I ensure that all necessary supplies—such as food, toys, and bedding—are provided, along with regular routines to minimize stress. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort and security by following your guidelines and routines closely. I ensure that doors and windows are secured, and I’m attentive to your pet’s needs, providing regular check-ins, exercise, and playtime. I also maintain a clean environment, including thorough litter box cleaning and sanitizing any areas your pet frequents. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities!
About: Your pup will be barking up the RIGHT tree (NOT 🌵) with tail wagging walks and cozy snuggles and plenty of playtime in our spacious backyard. I'm a longtime dog lover and devoted dog mom to a sweet 5-year old goldendoodle named Henry (shhh, he still thinks he's a puppy). I totally understand the quirks that come with our furry friends. I'm all about creating a safe, happy environment where your pup feels right at home. Whether it's yard play, a stroll through the neighborhood, or just couch snuggles, I meet dogs where they are with calm energy, patience and lots of love. I've cared for everything from high-energy pups to those with a bit of separation anxiety. From zoomies to zen time, your dog's in good hands here. Reliable. Loving. A little goofy, in all the best ways. Let's make tails wag and noses boop! I work from home, which means I've got a super flexible schedule and plenty of time for tail wags and potty breaks! From morning walks to midday playtime to evening cuddles, I can adjust to whatever fits best with your pet's routine and your schedule. Creating a safe, comfortable environment is my top priority. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pup behind. I feel the same way with Henry all the time, which is why I go the extra mile to make sure every dog feels secure and cared for. I stick to familiar routines, provide lots of personalized attention and keep every space is calm, clean and pet-friendly. Your dog will be treated like family.
About: I've had animals all my life, they've been a constant joy. I've worked with animals in a professional setting, as an assistant to a Professional Dog Trainer. While working with a Dog Trainer, I've interacted with many different types of animals (even their temperaments at times) such as different dog breeds and sizes, as well as cats. For dogs being trained, as well as those being boarded, I was responsible for feedings, any medications that needed to be administered, crating and uncrating dogs for bathroom breaks, cleaning of all outside kennels and inside crates, I also bathed and groomed dogs before they returned home. Other than dogs and cats, I'm also experienced in working with reptiles, rabbits, fish, etc. I am very careful and respectful to all animals and their environments and schedules. I've also done overnight house and dog sitting for friends and family. Outside of my resume, I truly love animals and enjoy meeting new furry friends. With that said, I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I also work part-time, as well as from home, & will be able to give your pups all the exercise they need. Sometimes I will be in & out of your home, as I have other clients, but will always make sure your animals are taken care of regardless of my schedule. I will follow all procedures you give me. I am also very careful when entering & exiting your home to prevent any escapes. When I let your dogs out into the yard, they are always watched & never left alone.
About: There are 2 of us in our home to offer your precious pet the care and attention they are use to and deserve. We also have our own sweet dog at home that is very friendly with all dogs. Having grown up with numerous dogs I have a vast amount of experience with our 4 and 3 legged friends. We have a good sized back yard and doggie door to allow them the ability to go out as much as they wish. We are comfortable with any breed of dog. We wish to have the best care for your fur child, so please let us know if they require any special attention. Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to seeing you special friend soon.
“What would I do without these ladies? They're timely, flexible, and send great pics of my doggy when they visit him! They play inside with him when it's too hot to go out, and let him rest when he wants to. They're a relief to us both!”

“The "happy dogs" enviroment Miriam has created is perfect for our very social Husky Keesha and her playmates. Each stay is like an extra long playdate for her. Now it will take a full day of sleeping it off for her to recuperate. Excellent!!”
“Ashley took great care of Luna. She was very prompt in communication and even sent updates/videos of Luna having a blast. I am happy to trust Ashley with my fur baby and we will definitely be returning customers.”
“David was graciously flexible with drop off/pick up time which allowed us to do a late night stargazing program. He also has a great yard that my dogs seemed to thoroughly enjoy. We were very pleased and booked a second day.”
“Vicky watched my pups for a second time and everything went great 😊 she sent lots of pictures, updates every day, and my dogs were happy as ever when I picked them up. She’s awesome and I plan on using her for future dog sitting!”
“We couldn’t have asked for better sitters for our dog, Ollie. Water and John (along with their sweet dog, Poppy) were incredibly kind and welcoming, making Ollie feel right at home from the start. They kept us updated with regular texts and photos, which truly put our minds at ease while we were away. When Ollie had a little trouble adjusting to the new environment, Water and John went above and beyond to help him settle in comfortably—even letting him sleep in bed with them, which we really appreciated! Their genuine care and flexibility made all the difference. We would absolutely recommend Water and John to anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable pet sitters. Ollie was in wonderful hands, and we’re so grateful for their exceptional care!”
“Loren was amazing and put some of my anxiety at ease with our high energy aussie. She sent daily recaps and pictures of our dogs. It looked like they had a wonderful time and were so happy/tired when picked up. She communicates quickly with any questions/concerns. Would love to have our dogs stay with her again!”
“Gail was amazing with my elderly diabetic cat. She was able to customize a private little space for my senior kitty to be safe and secure. She also sent periodic pictures and updates to put my mind at ease!”
“Gina was attentive, kind, and great energy! I felt very comfortable knowing my babies were in good hands. I received daily pictures and updates. I couldn't be happier with our experience.”
“Misty and her family are *so* nice! Their house is perfect for puppies of all ages and sizes! Pepe had such a fun time with them. Misty was great to work with, very responsive and an overall wonderful and amazing person! 10/10 would recommend. All dogs staying with Misty and fam will be very well taken care of!”
“Shes amazing! My puppy was so happy and exhausted after leaving him with the sitter! It was awesome that he got a bath right before pick up! Will highly recommend and will book again.”
“What a find! Stephanie is the best! I can’t believe what all she did. She bathed the dogs, cleaned their crates, worked on some training and it was an absolute godsend when I was really desperate for someone to take both my dogs and going into the hospital. so so grateful for what good care she took of my boys.”
“Jenifer and her family were amazing with my pup Huxley. He stayed with them for almost two weeks and I think he was a little disappointed when I picked him up because he had so much fun. I looked forward to the daily updates of his activities with his new friends, and I had no doubt that they treated him as part of the family. Huxley looks forward to going back to “camp” soon!”
“They were absolutely amazing! Sent me plenty of updates throughout my pups stay and treated her like their own. I will definitely book with them again. 10/10 recommend!”
“Robyn was so great to our pup. She sent us daily updates and photos. It really helped my anxiety to know that my dog was safe and happy. She is incredibly prepared and makes sure to have everything your dog needs on hand (except for food) so if you forget something, it's much less stressful. I will absolutely be reaching out to Robyn for dog care in the future.”
“I'm so grateful to Brandi for taking in my two rambunctious boys. She had some behavior issues she had to address while I was away but handled it like a professional with her veterinary background and gave me a thorough report on when I picked them up. She was kind and caring at all times while still being professional about her expectations and rules. She even sent me photos of my boys while I was gone which was so nice. I feel lucky we found her and plan on bringing the boys back to her again for doggie day care and boarding at her horse property. My doggies are super dusty but happy and well cared for. Thank you, Brittani! Marisol”
“Kalee was FANTASTIC with our little Westie! She provided updates and photos multiple times so that I felt well connected while our dog was in her care. She was very kind, thoughtful, great with communication and treated our pup like part of her family. I highly recommend Kalee and look forward to using her again soon!”
“Michelle and her husband are wonderful. They helped me out in a pinch and more importantly, they are very responsible and caring dog handlers. They are great people and I felt very comfortable with them taking good care of my little guy.”
