“Joy was absolutely amazing with our dogs while we were away on vacation! From the moment we left, she kept us updated every single day with messages, photos, and details about how they were doing. Knowing our dogs were in such caring and attentive hands gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our trip. It’s clear that Joy genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable throughout their stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We are incredibly grateful for all of her care, communication, and professionalism. I highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Don is FANTASTIC! If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would! Don communicates regularly, takes great care of my dog Dallas, make sure she gets walked and taken out regularly, and he is extremely skilled at dog training and boarding! He is willing to pick up and drop off your furry/fuzzy family member, he's flexible, and he sticks to any instructions that you might provide him about your animals diet, exercise regimen, etc! If you are looking to board or train your dog, send him or her to Don! Top notch service!!”
“Ela was communicative and nothing but accommodating to every query or request. I can’t recommend her services enough as she made the whole experience of being away from our baby comfortable and reassuring. Arlo was regularly walked and taken to the park to socialise with other animals as well as clearly developing a loving relationship for Ela. Ela regularly updated us sent photos and videos as well. We will definitely be returning for her services!”
“We appreciate all that Erin & Alex do for our Tobi! They continue to remain his primary sitters! They are always communicating with us, sending videos and updates. It always helps us to feel at ease! Our little guy always enjoys his time with them and his mama’s appreciate that! Thank you both again & see you next month!”
“Brandon is a total gem! He and Billy are both so kind and caring. My two pups took to them immediately and had a wonderful time. Brandon is a great communicator and provided timely updates. I had a little mix-up with my dates, and Brandon was so flexible and accommodating with the change. I can't recommend them enough and my two pups can't wait to stay with them again.”
“Gloria was absolutely wonderful with my sweet puppy! I am an experienced rover sitter myself, and I will say I am impressed! Gloria’s attention to detail was amazing, and her communication skills were some of the best I have had with a pet sitter. My puppy came home extremely happy, she clearly received top notch care and a lot of love during her stay with Gloria! Thank you so much! I will 100% be booking again when I need a sitter.”
“Katie took wonderful care of my special needs dog in a short notice situation. She was very easy to communicate and was flexible with me on pick up and drop off. She sent me lots of pictures during my dog's stay and checked in with me often. I can't recommend her enough! Most people would not open their home to a medical special needs dog but Katie did without a second thought. Thanks again for the wonderful experience. So grateful to have found you”
“Amazing care. I am so glad I found Edith. I felt at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. She sent photos every day of my cat looking happier with her than me lol. Best caretaker for pets ever. I highly recommend Edith.”

About: I work as a veterinary assistant and are currently in school to get my license. I love cats and take a special interest in feline emotional needs. I personally have 2 cats and 2 dogs. Pet care IS my daily routine as I work in the veterinary field and also have pets of my own. Pet care has always been a big part of my life. I currently have my own home where both cats are kept strictly indoors and have full range of the house at different times. My two cats don’t always get along so I take extra care to make sure litter boxes are cleaned daily and each cat has their own time to have the full house to themselves as to keep stress levels between them low. I was also able to completely fence my yard therefore both dogs are safe and confined.
About: I met my soul cat when I was five. I loved and cared for him for 16 years! I’m no stranger to administrating medicine, even at their feistiest. I understand the patience needed for cats when meeting new people and being introduced to new environments. I now own a Maine Coon cat who I love and adore. Truthfully, I care for him more than I care for myself ; his litter box is cleaned more often than my room!

“Super communicative. I was in need of last minute cat care during a heatwave and Iliani (Eileen) was ready to help!

“I have three large dogs — which is no small feat — and finding someone I trust with them is everything. Our sitter was absolutely incredible. She didn’t just watch them; she was fully engaged, spending more time playing with them than I usually get to myself. My dogs can be a handful, and she handled them with so much energy and love. I came home to three happy, tired pups, which says it all. Highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with big or high-energy dogs!”

About: I have been watching over pups of all ages from a few weeks old to senior pup ages giving them all the cuddles, exercise, and snacking of fruits and vegetables to keep them on their toes.

Through that experience, I've become comfortable monitoring health concerns, maintaining routines, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I've also been around many different dog breeds throughout my life, so I'm confident handling a variety of temperaments and energy levels. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide owners with peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I've always been around dogs and enjoy spending time with them. While I am usually unavailable on Thursdays and Sundays, I do my best to be flexible and accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. As long as we stay in contact and communicate clearly, I can work with schedules to provide reliable care. I am committed to making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that pets are most comfortable when their routine stays consistent. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they're away. Having cared for and nursed four French Bulldogs and been around many different dog breeds, I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's individual needs and personality.

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I love to help them, be around them, play with them, and provide the quality care that they deserve.. I currently have a 17 year old Pug and a 1 year old kitty whom I live and adore. I believe all pets have an unique personality and I am able to adjust to meet their needs. I believe our pets are a member of our family and should be treated with loving kindness the same way other members of our family are treated. I detest any form of abuse, mishandling, or mistreatment of any kind. I love meeting new pets and getting to know them so I can take better care of them. I love all pets.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 12 years old, I had every animal in the book ! Also my family members would always ask me to watch their beautiful furbabies, therefore I am experienced. I was always the first person they would ask , people who know me know my passion for animals ! Therefore you will have peace of mind when your baby is with me☺️ Before booking I do need to know if your babe is friendly with another dog as I have one myself, she’s very playful with either a cat or dog , if they have any food allergies, & description on your feeding schedule. Keep in mind, your mind will be at ease since they are safe with me especially with getting the attention they need. I also do have a three year old so they can’t be aggressive towards children. I currently graduated high-school and i do work part time other then that I am at home with my daughter so yes of course. If I am not home my hubby is ! So they will always have someone around, he is just as caring to animals as I am. I would love to meet your fury friend . I have a friendly shitzu , She loves meeting new friends , cats as well !

Don communicates regularly, takes great care of my dog Dallas, make sure she gets walked and taken out regularly, and he is extremely skilled at dog training and boarding! He is willing to pick up and drop off your furry/fuzzy family member, he's flexible, and he sticks to any instructions that you might provide him about your animals diet, exercise regimen, etc! If you are looking to board or train your dog, send him or her to Don! Top notch service!!”
“Brandon is a total gem! He and Billy are both so kind and caring. My two pups took to them immediately and had a wonderful time. Brandon is a great communicator and provided timely updates. I had a little mix-up with my dates, and Brandon was so flexible and accommodating with the change. I can't recommend them enough and my two pups can't wait to stay with them again.”

About: With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring both knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I look after.

As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and able to give animals consistent care and attention. I check on them in the morning, midday, and evening to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting the care they need. My daily routine allows me to provide a steady, safe, and attentive environment for every pet. I provide safe, reliable care by respecting each pet’s unique needs. I follow owner instructions closely, maintain a secure environment, and make sure every fur baby feels comfortable and cared for.

“Sierra was so good with our Kobe. My husband even said that at drop off, Kobe looked so sad to be home haha, and he’s usually so excited to see us. She kept me informed through out his stay, and updated me with photos as well. When we need to board him again, Sierra will be our first option for sure. Thanks again ❤️”

“Ruby is amazing and highly recommended. It was our first vacation out of town since getting our dog. I was hesitant on leaving her behind as she is part of our family. We did a meet and greet the day prior and Ruby could tell that I was hesitant, it was not because of Ruby or her home it was just me going back and forth with leaving her or taking her with us . She was super accommodating and willing to cancel the reservation if I felt it was not right. After going back and forth we ultimately decided to leave her. Ruby sent tons of videos and pictures which made us feel at ease. Nyla was truly spoiled while we were away she got walks and tons of play time with her and her dogs. We will definitely book with Ruby again.”
“Our senior dog, Sophie, recently spent a couple of days and one night with Maggie and her son, Quin. Throughout the stay we received updates and photos of our dog, which we really appreciated. Sophie quickly settled in to being at their home. Maggie and Quin were very kind and sweet with her. We were very happy with Sophie's care! Already have another stay booked with Maggie.”
“Excellent experience. Our 3+ yr old Maltese loves these guys. He returns in a calm happy manner. They are very easy to work with as well. Have used 3x’s and remain very pleased.”
“Mary was very accommodating and had a nice enclosed yard for our two bichons to explore and roam around off leash. She has a tiny little pup of her own (Gracie), about a third the size of our Bichons, that is also very friendly and welcoming.”
“Tanya was an excellent choice for our 2 pups. They boarded at her home for 11 nights. She sent awesome pictures frequently. They settled in quickly and were super calm when we picked them up. We highly recommend Tanya and will use her services again when we return to the area next year.”
