About: I’ve been the main caregiver to my JRT, Charlie, for about 7 years, and my pit bull lab, Blu, for about 2 years. With two dogs, trust me, there’s no situation too tough to handle! I am responsible, reliable, and care deeply about my fur babies. I will do whatever it takes to keep your dog out of harm’s way and make sure they have a great time! Pet care is a constant part of my daily routine. I am a college student primarily taking online classes, so the majority of my time is spent at home. I feed my dogs twice daily. We go on walks frequently around the neighborhood. I keep them entertained with their toys and give them lots of attention and petting. I make sure they get several potty breaks throughout the day. I take any precautions necessary to keep them out of trouble and keep them safe.
“Thelma & her family made my baby feel right at home. They took him on walks and gave him lots of love and attention which I believe helped relaxed him a bit. Thelma and family made his first boarding experience a 10/10. Thank you Thelma!”
“We JUST rescued our pup but had already had plans to go out of town and didn’t want to leave him alone. I met Rudy at PetSmart and just talking to him for a few minutes you can immediately tell he knows so much about dogs and caring for them and absolutely loves animals. We felt so comfortable leaving our pup in his care and he provided check-ins throughout our little guys stay. He asked us what we were already doing at home so he could follow that lead which I think is so considerate instead of just sticking to his personal routine. I HIGHLY recommend Rudy and will definitely be leaving our pup there for any other trips we have coming up!!”
“Our dog Mimi had the best time. She made friends with both dogs of the household. We got a lot of pictures and updates. We will bring Mimi back again. She felt very much like belonging to the family. Thank you so much!!!”

She kept me updated regularly with pictures and messages, which I really appreciated. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“We are more than pleased with her services. She kept us updated throughout the days, and our dogs were taken on regular walks. When we picked them up, they were happily tired—which we truly appreciated! We will definitely be booking with Daniela again.”
“Baby had a blast staying her first weekend with Vivianne and her new friend Kayla. ?. We enjoyed how Vivianne sent us updates via pics and videos of Baby.

“Juliana was a lifesaver for taking in my last minute booking to watch my dog, Ozzy. She was very attentive and always spends extra time with my dog. She takes initiative when issues arise and reports to me when problem has been handled. We’re so grateful for you!”
“Melissa took excellent care of our two cats. She took care of them via drop in visits for over a week and each day she provided photos and videos showcasing that they were cared for! Very professional sitter.”
“This is my very first time I’ve used Rover and I’m impressed with Vivianne. She was able to provide me daily photos and updates which was very reassuring. Vivianne is very thorough, detailed oriented, and very passionate about animals. We arrived home to mama cat being well taken care of and well fed. She went up and beyond, to which she even pick up our trash receptacle that toppled over during a storm and placed it on the side of our home with our other bins. I will definitely be contracting her in the future and if I could give her more than 5 stars I would.”
