“Annie and her husband are down to Earth people with gentle souls, we immediately felt welcomed into their spotless home. I just felt it in my heart that she was “the one” to care for our little Buddy a senior dog. I received daily email updates and the sweetest photos of our dog napping peacefully as well as a cute photo shoot commercial, yes a commercial shoot. We will definitely use Annie again, when we can’t take our dog on vacation with is. Peace of mind is priceless, thank you Annie for allowing us to enjoy our little getaway knowing that Buddy was being well cared for and safe. Will definitely rebook.”
“Bani is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Cash and treated him like her own baby. I felt completely secure and comfortable having him board with her, even for a couple of weeks. She and her family were so attentive, loving, and patient with him. I really appreciated the daily photo updates, they always gave me peace of mind and made me smile. I highly recommend Bani to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Cash can’t wait to visit again!”
“Suman took wonderful care of Murphy for 4 days while we were out of town. She kept us updated with pictures and videos and was in constant communication, which gave us great peace of mind. It was such a relief knowing Murphy was in good hands. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Priscilla and her family were wonderful with our precious Penny. This was our first time leaving her for such a long time -- while Penny is a sweetheart, she can also be a handful because of her youthful exuberance. Priscilla (along with husband and kids) left us feeling so assured that Penny was thoroughly loved during our time away. Not only did Priscilla give us frequent updates with pics and videos, she also gave us training and enrichment tips with some of the toys they had vetted with their dog Finn beforehand and got to use with Penny while she was there. Their dog is also a sweetheart, and our two pups got along phenomenally which was a delight. Moreso, Penny really bonded with the whole family! During the latter half of our trip, we had a neighbor take care of her, and they drove her up to our building safe and sound =] I'm so much more confident about traveling knowing I can leave my girl in Priscilla's wonderfully capable and caring hands.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
“Adrianna was great and Casper had the best time. I was going on a vacation and was able to get some great photos and updates throughout my trip. If I have to leave again for an extended period I would be happy to rebook another stay!”
“Sandra was super nice and communicative through the whole stay about what they were up to and sending pictures. Our dog seemed to really enjoyed staying with their family and got along great with their dog Mocha. Will definitely reach out to Sandra the next time we need a sitter.”
“Wally had the best day with Saeedeh! From drop-off to pick-up, it was clear he was well cared for and in good hands. We received updates throughout the day, which gave us peace of mind, and he came home happy and relaxed. We really appreciated the care, attention, and kindness shown during his day stay!”
“My experience with Polyanna couldn't have been more positive. She was punctual and super friendly in all of our meetings. She sent me photos of Jojo while I was away, which made me feel very calm and reassured :) I was happy my dog had the chance to socialize and be with someone else other than me (she's over attached). I can't thank Polyanna enough!”
“We have used Patricia several times and she always provides the best service! She treats our dog, Penelope, like her own and shares lots of updates (photos & videos). Penelope loves her time with Patty and her dog, which leaves us at ease when we travel.”
“Excellent experience, it was my first time using Wen and will use her again. She was very communicative, provided a lot of photos, and most importantly, my doggo looked very happy and came home happy!”
“Our family sitter fell through at the last minute due to a family emergency and we had to find another one quickly. Thankfully, SaeWon and her family were available. Our Coco is an anxious dog and requires attention when she’s in a new environment. SaeWon and her family took great care of her and assured us Coco was doing well, sending us updates and photos and videos. We can’t thank them enough for helping us out on such a short notice! ❤️🐶”
About: I’ve always been around animals and genuinely love them, especially Golden Retrievers. My friends and family trust me with their dogs because I actually enjoy spending time with them. I hang out with them, play with them, take them on walks, and make sure they get plenty of attention. I don’t personally have a dog at the moment because I travel from time to time, but dogs have always been a big part of my life. My wife has owned two dogs, and I’ve personally had cats, so I’m very comfortable around animals and caring for them. I’m patient, calm, and good at building trust, especially with pets who may need a little time to warm up. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I will personally be the one providing all care for any pets booked through my Rover profile. I’m available mornings and evenings for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding. I enjoy spending real time with the pets I care for, whether that means going on walks, playing, hanging out, or just keeping them company. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how they’re doing. Since I live in an apartment, the best fit would be a dog who is house trained, calm indoors, and comfortable using either the elevator or stairs. They should also be able to settle without excessive barking. I’m happy to spend plenty of time with them, play, go on walks, and keep them company. I just ask that they don’t have aggressive behavior, biting, frequent accidents, or destructive habits. A quick meet-and-greet beforehand would be great so we can make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a good fit.
“I have boarded my cat, Oreo, with her twice, and each experience has been wonderful. You can truly tell how much she loves and cares for animals. Her home is very clean, safe, and full of things that cats enjoy, which made me feel completely comfortable leaving Oreo in her care. Every day, she sent detailed updates with photos and videos, along with information about Oreo’s health, appetite, and overall well-being. I really appreciated how attentive and thorough she was. Most importantly, Oreo always comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It gives me great peace of mind knowing she is in such loving hands while I’m away. I would absolutely book with her again for future trips and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Oreo! 🐱❤️”
“Lee is the best! Not only is her home pristine, cozy, and in a lovely safe neighborhood with lots of grass and greenery for pups to roam and sniff, but she has such a warmth about her that shows in her care for our dogs. She is observant of our dogs needs and followed all of our feeding and walking instructions. She is also communicative with any concerns that came up along the way and was great about sending us photos and updates of how our furbabies were doing each day. So happy to have found her and would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Seriously, she was an absolute lifesaver for our furry friend. We got so many adorable updates and photos, it really put our minds at ease. Knowing our dog was having such a good time made our trip so much more enjoyable. We'll definitely be booking her again for our next getaway. You won't regret choosing her services!”
“Jordana was a great sitter, providing updates and pictures daily. Our pup was a handful during her stay but Jordana was very helpful and diligent attempting to resolve eating and escaping issues. Their dog Nikita is very friendly and got along great with our Maggie. I will definitely be utilizing Jordana in the future, if she will take Maggie back! Haha! Thank you Jordana!”
“I was so nervous to leave my dog Phil with another family because he’s kind of skittish and is attached to me. As soon as Phil met Stevie they became instant best friends! Wendy is so accommodating and sends daily pictures (not to mention she takes awesome action shots). When I picked Phil up I could tell he bonded with the entire family. I would recommend Wendy to anyone looking to do dog boarding. She is so kind and you can tell she loves animals. She will be our go to every time now.”

“DanaRene is great with my two cats, when I am on extended trips, she ensures that they are taken care of, and deals with any unexpected mishaps they cause! And my cats love her!”
“Parnian was absolutely amazing with Leyli! From the second Leyli saw her, she immediately loved her and felt comfortable around her, which made me feel so much better about being away. Parnian took such great care of her and gave her lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and love. She was very caring, responsible, and kept me updated with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Leyli was happy and comfortable with her the entire time. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust with Leyli, and I would absolutely book with Parnian again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy cat sitter! ❤️🐱”
“I am so happy to find Susana. She is very friendly, outgoing, nice person. My cat doesn't like strangers but when he saw Susana at first time he was ready for communication. Susana had been caring for my cat during 15 days and every day I had beautiful pictures of my Fil. I was absolutely sure that my cat in safe because Susana is very responsible and reliable person. She was cleaning his litter, was feeding and playing with cat. She followed my plan exactly. I really recommend Susana for everybody who needs help with fur babies!”
“Thank you so much Kaitlyn! You are above & beyond! I appreciate how caring you are with my baby girls. And thank you for being so thoughtful in helping with anything extra that was needed at my house. You’re truly amazing!”
“Laurie has looked after my two cats several times and she is fantastic. She is reliable, communicative, and my cats truly enjoy playtime with her! Would definitely recommend Laurie.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and genuinely can’t remember a home without animals. I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all sizes. I grew up with a spunky Jack Russell Terrier who my family had for 20 years, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds, senior pets, and everything in between. I’m patient, comfortable with dogs that may be nervous or challenging, and always move at the pet’s pace. I regularly cat sit, am confident administering medication, and have experience with puppies, adults, and senior animals. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, it allows me to fully focus on the pets I’m caring for and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home. I work from home full time, which allows me to be present, attentive, and flexible with pets who need companionship during the day. I’m available for dog walking and pet sitting, with weekday availability after 5pm and open availability on weekends. Your pet will never be an afterthought! Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each animal’s routine, personality, and boundaries so they feel secure and respected. I’m calm, observant, and patient, especially with anxious or high-energy pets. I follow instructions carefully, keep environments clean and hazard-free, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in loving, capable hands whether I’m in your home or caring for them elsewhere.
“Lee, thank you so much for always looking after Benny. It’s so nice to get home and find Benny happy because he was so well taken care of and accompanied while we were out.”

“Sofiya did an amazing job with our kitties. They are shy and they loved her. Sofiya sent daily updates and videos and when we returned home everything was perfect.

About: I grew up with dogs and spent 10+ years caring for my own rescue dog, Jack. I spent 5+ years volunteering at an animal shelter, fostering dogs, and taking shelter dogs running. I have completed dog training courses for all of those activities. I understand just how much trust it takes to put your dog in someone else’s care. I’m attentive, patient and affectionate, and I treat every dog as an individual with their own personality, routines and needs. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and the additional care they may require, including administering medications, preparing special meals, assisting with mobility, adapting walks and activities, and following detailed care routines. I’m also very observant of changes in behavior, appetite, energy and comfort. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—whether that means a good walk, playtime, exploring outside, or simply keeping them company at home. I’m reliable and responsible, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay as close as possible to their normal routine while you’re away. My apartment is large, spacious, and quiet. I am in the first floor so it is accessible for senior dogs. I have a gated patio which adds security to the front area. My complex is quiet and has walking paths and grassy areas, with very few dog owners - and we keep our dogs separate and away from each other. Your dog will be safe and secure with me. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, medications, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m active and enjoy walking, but I’m equally happy to adjust my routine for a senior dog or a pet who prefers a quieter day at home. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I take caring for someone else’s pet and home seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, household rules and any special routines your pet is accustomed to. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility or comfort and will communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep it clean, secure and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable and getting plenty of attention.

I would absolutely book with Homeira again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their dogs!”

About: Hi, I’m Samantha—your pet’s new favorite human. My friends voted me “Most Likely to Come Home from a Girls Weekend with a Dog,” and I wear that title proudly. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from horses and dogs on my grandparents’ farm to fostering pets and building cat walls in my spare time. I speak fluent cat and dog (yes, I understand the slow blink and the “where are you?” meow). I’m upbeat, funny, and dependable—and I’ll treat your fur-kids like family. When Auntie Samantha visits, pets get greeted first. It’s not personal—it’s priorities. I aim to build respectful, lasting partnerships with pet parents, and I’ll keep you updated with pics and notes so you always know your pet is safe, loved, and maybe a little spoiled. Since I work from home and for myself, my work schedule is very flexible. I enjoy helping others care for their four legged kids, since I remember never having enough time when I was younger. Our fur kids are very used to new siblings coming in the home. We have been fostering for PACT FOR ANIMALS for years. They provide foster homes for military personnel.

About: Hi there! Thanks for checking out my profile! I’ve always had love for dogs, especially small ones. I had a miniature poodle my whole life growing up, for about 15 years 🤍. I have a male mini. Schnauzer pup named Rex, he’s my baby! ❤️ I’d love to introduce him to other small dogs and I think this is a great way to do so. He’s super friendly and loves to have furry friends around. 💜 On weekends I am usually home all day. I am able to do morning, afternoon and evening walks. If I need to step out, I am more than willing to bring your furry friend along with me if possible. 🐾 I am able to have your pet be in my presence for most, if not all day during the weekends. When they are at my home, they will be free to enjoy my living space. I am very clean and organized and will be vigilant of your pet and their surroundings. I typically only host 1 pet per day, unless they are “siblings” and come from the same home then I am happy to host them.🦮🐕🦺 🏠💗
About: I’ve had pets of my own since I was a little girl and have always treated them with the love and respect that they deserve. I’ve raised a puppy of my own during COVID which was humbling but extremely rewarding as he is truly the best boy and now my best friend. I’ve been around dogs of all ages all my life and understand that each dog is different, each with their own personality, just like us humans. I have the patience it takes to understand dogs and know that it’s not always easy for them to express themselves, body language being a huge thing I look at. Owning an orange tabbycat of my own, I also have experience with understanding a cat’s needs and although they can be more skiddish, they seek and deserve just as much care and attention. I hope I have the opportunity to help you to take care of your pet in whatever way I can, and trust that they are under my safe and full supervision. I’m currently working full time but am available and eager to help you with your pets on afternoons, nights and weekends. Whatever your pet’s needs are, I’m happy to help. I live in Lake Forest and work full time in Mission Viejo, so I am willing to go anywhere in the South OC area to care for your fur babies! I have a small dog and cat of my own at home, so I can understand how much caution goes into owning and taking care of a pet. My priority is making pets feel comfortable and safe in a place where they can both have fun and relax, because we all deserve to feel that peace at home. As a pet parent, I always check that risky items are stored away so that there’s less room for error, that there’s always access to food and water (unless instructed otherwise of course!) and that fun toys are in reach!

I’ll rely on these notes to make sure your pup feels comfortable and well cared for when they are with me. If you decide to book, I’ll just ask for your dog’s most recent vaccination records and flea prevention info. This helps ensure all pups under my care are up to date. I’ll also provide a standard pet care waiver. This is a simple, common form used by all boarding and pet care providers. ✨ Reservations Each stay is carefully planned to ensure a comfortable and stress-free experience for you and your pup(s).

Throughout the day, dogs are supervised and let out into the backyard every 2–3 hours for potty breaks, playtime, and fresh air. I love providing lots of love and attention through backyard playtime, calm indoor and outdoor activities, head scratches, and belly rubs. Mealtimes are always kept consistent with your dog’s regular routine. I’m home most of the day and only step out occasionally for Rover walks, drop-in visits, or quick errands. During those times, dogs at home are supervised by my husband. Evenings are all about winding down with a walk to the park, dinner, final potty breaks, and calm relaxation before settling in comfortably for the night. You’ll receive photo and video updates each day, so you never miss a moment of your pup’s stay. 😊 Group Size & Temperaments It’s always nice to make new friends! I keep boarding and daycare groups small, usually four dogs or fewer at a time. Each group is thoughtfully booked based on size, energy level, and personality to provided a positive experience for everyone. It’s a wonderful way for your pup to meet new friends in a calm, supervised environment. 🛡️ Safety First Your pup’s safety is my top priority. I ’m trained in American Red Cross Cat & Dog First Aid. I’ve also completed my hands on trading and received my Pet Tech CPR & First Aid Certification, 2026 All walks are always leashed, we avoid interactions with other dogs, and our home is fully secured with locked gates, a two-layer front door, and in/outdoor security. Backyard play, sun bathing and potty breaks are always supervised.

About: Hello pet lovers! I have been taking care of pets past 15 years. Dogs, cats or bunnies I had them all:). I lost my Sonny dog couple years ago who was on my 15 year journey every single day. He had the best dog life by hanging out with other dogs all day long or keeping a company to our dog visitors. I live in a home with fenced green backyard which is the best place for your sweet pets to relax in. Don’t be afraid to leave you pet in my hands. A small treat, a little bit of gentle petting, and a nice walk in a park and your pet is my best friend forever. Dog walking or dog sitting I love it all!!!!

“Bani is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Cash and treated him like her own baby. I felt completely secure and comfortable having him board with her, even for a couple of weeks. She and her family were so attentive, loving, and patient with him. I really appreciated the daily photo updates, they always gave me peace of mind and made me smile. I highly recommend Bani to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Cash can’t wait to visit again!”
“Priscilla and her family were wonderful with our precious Penny. This was our first time leaving her for such a long time -- while Penny is a sweetheart, she can also be a handful because of her youthful exuberance. Priscilla (along with husband and kids) left us feeling so assured that Penny was thoroughly loved during our time away. Not only did Priscilla give us frequent updates with pics and videos, she also gave us training and enrichment tips with some of the toys they had vetted with their dog Finn beforehand and got to use with Penny while she was there. Their dog is also a sweetheart, and our two pups got along phenomenally which was a delight. Moreso, Penny really bonded with the whole family! During the latter half of our trip, we had a neighbor take care of her, and they drove her up to our building safe and sound =] I'm so much more confident about traveling knowing I can leave my girl in Priscilla's wonderfully capable and caring hands.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
“Adrianna was great and Casper had the best time. I was going on a vacation and was able to get some great photos and updates throughout my trip. If I have to leave again for an extended period I would be happy to rebook another stay!”
“Wally had the best day with Saeedeh! From drop-off to pick-up, it was clear he was well cared for and in good hands. We received updates throughout the day, which gave us peace of mind, and he came home happy and relaxed. We really appreciated the care, attention, and kindness shown during his day stay!”
“Excellent experience, it was my first time using Wen and will use her again. She was very communicative, provided a lot of photos, and most importantly, my doggo looked very happy and came home happy!”
About: I’ve always been around animals and genuinely love them, especially Golden Retrievers. My friends and family trust me with their dogs because I actually enjoy spending time with them. I hang out with them, play with them, take them on walks, and make sure they get plenty of attention. I don’t personally have a dog at the moment because I travel from time to time, but dogs have always been a big part of my life. My wife has owned two dogs, and I’ve personally had cats, so I’m very comfortable around animals and caring for them. I’m patient, calm, and good at building trust, especially with pets who may need a little time to warm up. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I will personally be the one providing all care for any pets booked through my Rover profile. I’m available mornings and evenings for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding. I enjoy spending real time with the pets I care for, whether that means going on walks, playing, hanging out, or just keeping them company. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how they’re doing. Since I live in an apartment, the best fit would be a dog who is house trained, calm indoors, and comfortable using either the elevator or stairs. They should also be able to settle without excessive barking. I’m happy to spend plenty of time with them, play, go on walks, and keep them company. I just ask that they don’t have aggressive behavior, biting, frequent accidents, or destructive habits. A quick meet-and-greet beforehand would be great so we can make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a good fit.
“Lee is the best! Not only is her home pristine, cozy, and in a lovely safe neighborhood with lots of grass and greenery for pups to roam and sniff, but she has such a warmth about her that shows in her care for our dogs. She is observant of our dogs needs and followed all of our feeding and walking instructions. She is also communicative with any concerns that came up along the way and was great about sending us photos and updates of how our furbabies were doing each day. So happy to have found her and would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Seriously, she was an absolute lifesaver for our furry friend. We got so many adorable updates and photos, it really put our minds at ease. Knowing our dog was having such a good time made our trip so much more enjoyable. We'll definitely be booking her again for our next getaway. You won't regret choosing her services!”
“Jordana was a great sitter, providing updates and pictures daily. Our pup was a handful during her stay but Jordana was very helpful and diligent attempting to resolve eating and escaping issues. Their dog Nikita is very friendly and got along great with our Maggie. I will definitely be utilizing Jordana in the future, if she will take Maggie back! Haha! Thank you Jordana!”
“I was so nervous to leave my dog Phil with another family because he’s kind of skittish and is attached to me. As soon as Phil met Stevie they became instant best friends! Wendy is so accommodating and sends daily pictures (not to mention she takes awesome action shots). When I picked Phil up I could tell he bonded with the entire family. I would recommend Wendy to anyone looking to do dog boarding. She is so kind and you can tell she loves animals. She will be our go to every time now.”
“Radhika is amazing to say the least. From the time we connected, she has kept me informed (I am new to Rover) about what to expect. She took great care of my little paw baby and we can’t wait to go back soon! Thank you Radhika 🙏🏼”
“Gina was a great help watching our Charlie! She sent lots of photos and videos throughout her stay. It was such a nice peace of mind not having to worry about Charlie while we were away.”
“Julie boarded our Vizsla over the holiday weekend, and everything went perfect. Her home was perfect for dogs, and Julie sent updates. Will definitely look forward to using Julie again. Thanks!”
“Temi was amazing! Our pup had a little vacation of his own while staying with her. She kept us totally in the loop with sweet updates, photos, and videos that made us smile and feel so at ease. It was clear he was getting lots of love, attention, and playtime—which made being away so much easier. We could tell he felt right at home with her. Can’t recommend Temi enough—she’s a total gem and we’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
About: Hi! I have taken care of dogs almost my entire life. I got my first dog when I was 12 and from there on out I have always had at least one. I have always pet sit for family and friends when needed and now I’m looking forward to expanding my services to others. I live in a home and have a fenced in yard. I am used to giving medications if needed and can also care for senior dogs (I have one myself!) I have 2 dogs as of now so your dog will always have someone to play with 😊 I work from home so I am home nearly all day unless I have an errand to run I work from home so I am always home! I also have a backyard where they can run around whenever they want. I usually leave the door cracked for easy in/out access and I have a fully fenced in yard I have a fenced in yard and do frequent potty breaks! If your dog is crate trained I can keep them on whatever schedule they are used to at home. Throughout the years I’ve had to administer my fair share of medication so if your dog needs any medication I would be more than happy to administer! If they come to my home, they will always have a friend to play with since I have 2 dogs myself 🙂
“Very amazing host!! They sent so many videos and updates and did so many walks for my dog! You can tell they really love watching over the dogs and happy that I found a go to dog sitter who I can trust moving forward!”
About: I grew up with dogs and spent 10+ years caring for my own rescue dog, Jack. I spent 5+ years volunteering at an animal shelter, fostering dogs, and taking shelter dogs running. I have completed dog training courses for all of those activities. I understand just how much trust it takes to put your dog in someone else’s care. I’m attentive, patient and affectionate, and I treat every dog as an individual with their own personality, routines and needs. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and the additional care they may require, including administering medications, preparing special meals, assisting with mobility, adapting walks and activities, and following detailed care routines. I’m also very observant of changes in behavior, appetite, energy and comfort. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—whether that means a good walk, playtime, exploring outside, or simply keeping them company at home. I’m reliable and responsible, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay as close as possible to their normal routine while you’re away. My apartment is large, spacious, and quiet. I am in the first floor so it is accessible for senior dogs. I have a gated patio which adds security to the front area. My complex is quiet and has walking paths and grassy areas, with very few dog owners - and we keep our dogs separate and away from each other. Your dog will be safe and secure with me. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, medications, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m active and enjoy walking, but I’m equally happy to adjust my routine for a senior dog or a pet who prefers a quieter day at home. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I take caring for someone else’s pet and home seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, household rules and any special routines your pet is accustomed to. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility or comfort and will communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep it clean, secure and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable and getting plenty of attention.
