“It’s a match! I was having a little trouble finding a good sitter for my dog, but I think I’ve found the one with Heather and Calob. Starting off, communication was excellent and many photos were sent. They greeted us in a low stress manner and we were able to chat for a while. I can’t actually ask Dallas how he liked the stay but from what I can tell he did fine. He got to go on lots of walks, socialize with other small dogs, and sleep in fuzzy blankets and beds. Life was good.”
“I waited to put in a review and now the third time my 4 pound dog, Ruby has stayed with Lauren and Ben. My little girl goes crazy with excitement when she is walking up to their house. She walks in like it’s her place and has made friends with the resident big dog. Lauren and Ben are kind and send pics daily so I know for sure my little one is loved and part of their family when I need to travel for work. I’ve also seen a big positive change in confidence for Ruby.”
“Jamie was very timely in responding to me and sent me photos and updates. My dog Ollie felt right at home immediately and marched right in. Jamie and Joseph were obviously very familiar with caring for dogs, including noticing the little things, like wiping dogs eyes at the corners which I do. The house was clean and the neighborhood is quiet. I feel absolutely comfortable with having Ollie boarded with them and will be using their services again.”
“Jill has a beautiful home and property for the dogs to run and have fun. Great for socializing your dog. My fearful rescue dog was eight and home and relaxed and happy when I picked her up :)”
“Ellen was a caring host to our dog, Santo. It was the first time we used Rover and she immediately put us at ease. She sent pictures and videos regularly and we could just tell Santo so well loved in her care. Highly recommend Ellen!”
“Hannah was able to take our pup at short notice for a 2 week period and he absolutely loved every second of being in her care. Hannah is super communicative, sends pictures and adapts to any mishaps (we had to have new food delivered which was delayed). It’s such a great environment for pups that love playing. We will definitely be booking Hannah again. THANK YOU.”
“I had a fantastic experience with Sandy! From the moment she picked Lucy up, I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Her communication was prompt and friendly, and the regular updates and photos really put my mind at ease. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to find someone as trustworthy and attentive as Sandy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future—thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucy!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a lead kennel technician, I’ve cared for dogs in both daycare and boarding settings, ensuring their safety, health, and well being. My experience includes supervising group play, recognizing canine body language, administering medications, feeding specialized diets, maintaining clean and sanitary environments, and responding calmly in high pressure situations. I’m passionate about providing compassionate care and creating a safe, positive experience for every dog while building trust with both pets and their owners. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I prioritize making sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, enrichment, and care they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s feeding, administering medications, maintaining a clean environment, or providing playtime and companionship, I understand the importance of consistency and reliability. Caring for animals isn’t just part of my work. it’s something I’m passionate about and committed to every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. In my home, pets have access to a large, secure backyard where they can run, play, explore, or simply relax in the sun. I also enjoy taking them on walks through my quiet neighborhood to provide exercise and mental stimulation. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special routines, while making sure their home is respected and their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and quality care.

I can be available between classes on Wednesday and Thursday. There's lots of room for flexibility in my schedule. I will follow all instructions the owner provides.

“My golden retriever mix stayed with Caren for 3 weeks, and I could not be happier with the care that she gave to my dog - Rex. When I came back to pick up Rex from his stay, he was happy to see me, but also he was very excited to show how happy he was in Caren's home. I could see how much she cared for him by the way he responded to her - kept on going back to her with a wagging tail (which with past sitters wasn't the case - he usually just waits at the door to leave). I would highly recommend Caren for your next sitter if you want someone who will create a caring environment for your dog, that in turn will give peace of mind.”
“Had a really good experience with Patricia while we were in out of town. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of Bo while we were away. We appreciated the updates and knowing she was being looked after. It made traveling a lot less stressful, and we came home to a happy dog. Would definitely use her and her nice family again!”
“Amanda is amazing! My lab loves staying with her and her family. They take wonderful care of her and love her as if she was a family member. Amanda is very accommodating and always keeps me updated on how things are going. I could not recommend her more highly. She is my go-to pet sitter for sure!”
About: I have extensive experience in pet care, including basic training and providing specialized care for senior pets. My attentive approach ensures that each animal feels safe and loved. Im currently Stay at home. I find that I have so much time for my babies to enjoy others company while we are home or on the road visiting furry friends! I ensure a safe environment, maintain routines for feeding and exercise, provide personalized attention, monitor health, and keep the space clean, offering loving care for pets in any setting.
About: Currently being a stay at home mother, my hours are very flexible! Growing up with cats and dogs, my kiddos and I are currently lacking the fun presence of furry friends! Although my apartment is not the biggest, allowing only one dog at a time allows all of my attention to be focused. If pets are to stay overnight you can expect daily walks, trips to dog parks and most likely a bath if we get too ambitious. I am an adventurous person that believes dogs have individual personalities and unique characteristics that should be embraced and loved. Allowing pets to cuddle up on the couch MAY be negotiated because I am a sucker for puppy eyes. I am currently a stay at home with my three kiddos. I home school, so including a dog in the mix is so much fun for us! We often go on walks and trips to the park. I have a fenced yard, doggie door for easy outside access and loving, gentle kids to keep your animals company with lots of love and play.

“Brynn (Ash) came through for me in a pinch. Thank you! Another caretaker that I lined up via Rover canceled on me during the first day of my trip at a point where I was already miles away in another state. In a panic I searched for someone else and Brynn wasn’t just willing to help, they were willing to head over to my home to check-in on my cat 10 minutes after we had finalized arrangements! Communication was easy, clear, and consistent. I will absolutely looking for their support again when I have to travel and leave my elderly cat at home!”

I love to leave a space cleaner than when I found it! And bless it with positive energy, leaving you with a happy pet.
“Great and easy experience dropping our high maintenance baby off with Christina for a few hours so we could go to a party in town. She was very chill and easy to correspond with. He slept the whole way home so obviously had a good visit with her. Thank you, Christina!”
“Ellen was such a great sitter! I needed a Rover sitter last minute and she was able to help. She is very kind and communicative and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Grayson with her.

“I waited to put in a review and now the third time my 4 pound dog, Ruby has stayed with Lauren and Ben. My little girl goes crazy with excitement when she is walking up to their house. She walks in like it’s her place and has made friends with the resident big dog.

Her communication was prompt and friendly, and the regular updates and photos really put my mind at ease. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to find someone as trustworthy and attentive as Sandy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future—thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucy!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a lead kennel technician, I’ve cared for dogs in both daycare and boarding settings, ensuring their safety, health, and well being.

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I prioritize making sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, enrichment, and care they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s feeding, administering medications, maintaining a clean environment, or providing playtime and companionship, I understand the importance of consistency and reliability. Caring for animals isn’t just part of my work. it’s something I’m passionate about and committed to every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. In my home, pets have access to a large, secure backyard where they can run, play, explore, or simply relax in the sun. I also enjoy taking them on walks through my quiet neighborhood to provide exercise and mental stimulation. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special routines, while making sure their home is respected and their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and quality care.
“My golden retriever mix stayed with Caren for 3 weeks, and I could not be happier with the care that she gave to my dog - Rex. When I came back to pick up Rex from his stay, he was happy to see me, but also he was very excited to show how happy he was in Caren's home. I could see how much she cared for him by the way he responded to her - kept on going back to her with a wagging tail (which with past sitters wasn't the case - he usually just waits at the door to leave). I would highly recommend Caren for your next sitter if you want someone who will create a caring environment for your dog, that in turn will give peace of mind.”
“Had a really good experience with Patricia while we were in out of town. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of Bo while we were away. We appreciated the updates and knowing she was being looked after. It made traveling a lot less stressful, and we came home to a happy dog. Would definitely use her and her nice family again!”
“Amanda is amazing! My lab loves staying with her and her family. They take wonderful care of her and love her as if she was a family member. Amanda is very accommodating and always keeps me updated on how things are going. I could not recommend her more highly. She is my go-to pet sitter for sure!”

“Mackenzie cared for my 12-year-old mystery mutt, Delphine, during what I knew would be some of her final weeks. Delphine is in the late stages of terminal cancer, and her care requires patience, gentleness, and a deep respect for her autonomy and quirks. Mackenzie showed all of that and more. She was completely unfazed by the realities of end-of-life care, managing Delphine’s tumors, helping her up and down stairs, and handling the occasional accident with calm and compassion. Delphine, who is usually wary of new people, seemed genuinely at ease in Mackenzie’s presence. That alone speaks volumes. Mackenzie also sent thoughtful, funny updates that made me feel connected even when I couldn’t be there. I’m so grateful that in this tender time, Delphine had someone who treated her with dignity, care, and kindness. If I couldn’t be by her side, I’m thankful Mackenzie was.”
“Janel was amazing during our holiday break. Received multiple updates with pictures for the kids to see her adventures while we were away and Kona looked like a happy camper! Great communication and flexible with a change of plans.”
“I booked with Earl super last minute so I really appreciated him getting back to me and watching Norma. She stayed for one night and seemed very relaxed when I got her back which I thought was awesome. Earl sent me some photos of her during her stay to keep me updated. Will definitely book again :)”
