“Very responsive and helpful with our drop off and pick up hours - we had to drop off pretty early in the morning on our way out of town. Our dog seemed to enjoy her time there and was in good spirits when we picked her up.”
“The best sitter I’ve had! Sent lots of pictures and gave many updates on how he was doing it was amazing. She loves on the puppy as if they are her own couldn’t ask for anything more. Will definitely be a return customer!”
“First time using Rover/boarding my dog with Breanna. It was a terrific experience! Breanna was very quick and responsive before/during/after my dog’s stay with her. It was great seeing photos/videos of his visit for extra peace of mind while I was out of town; I could see he was having lots of fun and enjoying his time with the other pups. 10 out of 10 fantastic boarding experience! Would recommend working with Breanna.”
“Our dog is a rescue and I am never sure how she will react to other dogs, but Gayle is a pro and knows how to integrate the dogs safely and cares for each one. We appreciate the extra attention she gives.”
“I was nervous leaving my pup as he has had a couple bad experiences at different daycare, but I am so grateful for Courtney! She took such great care of Douglas and you can tell she has so much experience with dogs when you speak with her. I cannot recommend her enough! I know i can feel totally confident anytime I need to leave my pup.”
“We were super happy to have our dog stay with Eileen and Mike. We could tell our dog was comfortable and happy with them and wouldn’t hesitate to have him stay with them again.”
“April and her family did an excellent job taking care of Miko and Kobe. When I dropped off Miko, she had a procedure on her leg, so she had to keep her stitches in for an extended period of time and wear a cone while being boarded. April made sure Miko was not too active during her stay. I appreciate being able to board my dog knowing that she is in great hands!”
“Another great stay with Moriah! We appreciate her attention to detail and the level of care she gives Zia. Zia always looks like she is happy and having fun in the pictures Moriah sends, so we know she is safe and having a blast with her buddies.”
“Richard and Susan are amazing sitters, hands down. My wife and I always want the best for our big boy Smokey, and shoot, they delivered. We got lots of updates and pictures which was wonderful, but most importantly he had a great time and didn't even want to leave immediately when I came to pick him up! I take that as his official stamp of approval :) We'll be sure to use Richard and Susan going forward!”
“Bettina and Jim were an absolute dream come true! Being new to the area, we were a little nervous about leaving our poodle for the holiday week. But after our first visit, we knew he would be in good hands. They were the best, sent pictures daily of walks and good times while we were away ? highly recommend!”
“Sarah was great! She took very good care of Lucy and spoiled her. She sent pictures every day and kept me informed on how Lucy was doing. Will be booking Sarah in the future”
“Jen has taken great care of both of our dogs for a very reasonable price several times and we will definitely keep booking with her. She sends us lots of photos and communication about the dogs while we’re away and they’ve both been very happy and relaxed after staying with her.”
“Absolutely amazing with our boy, Scout. We have worked with Alisha several times now and we are always super happy with how she cares for him and communicates with us!”
“Our Kody, Great Pyrenees/Old English Sheepdog, had a great stay with Breanne and her family! What a wonderful dog loving environment... and Breanne sends updates! We will definitely book with Breanne again 🫶”
“Miriam was awesome! This was our 1st time away from each other , Bear was very well taking care of . Will definitely book again. In future . Thanks again 🙏♥️”
“Absolutely thrilled with the experience Jake had with Olivia and Jason! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that Jake was in excellent hands. Olivia and Jason provided a warm and welcoming environment, ensuring Jake felt right at home. Jake had an absolute blast during his stay. They kept him active and entertained with plenty of playtime, walks, and engaging activities. It’s obvious they genuinely care about the dogs they look after. Jake returned home thoroughly exhausted from all the fun he had—always a good sign of a great time! Communication with Olivia and Jason was seamless. They kept us updated with pictures and messages, reassuring us that Jake was happy and well taken care of. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and loving hands. I highly recommend Olivia and Jason to anyone looking for a fantastic dog-sitting experience. Jake can’t wait for his next stay with them! Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Judy was amazing with our two hundred pound dogs (over 100 lbs)! Our Shepherd and Great Dane mix were so well taken care of. Judy sent photos and updates every day, which made us feel comforted while out of town. We don't trust everyone with watching our dogs, as we have leash/other animals/small kiddo/food restrictions, but Judy is well versed in caring for large dogs and gave us confidence all would be fine! We will definitely rely on Judy again in the future.”

“Emily did such an amazing job communicating! I could not have imagined a better or more trustworthy sitter. I would pick Emily every single time. Thank you, Emily for taking care of my cats! You were amazing! I definitely will be trusting Emily again with my cats.”
“Dezerae was great! She watched our four cats for a week and kept us updated throughout. She took great care of them and even managed to bring our shyest out of her shell. When we got back the cats were very happy and seemed to have had a great time.”
“Amanda was super great! Highly recommend! They came over every day at the scheduled time and made sure Wheezy Cats food and water were topped off and gave him treats and lots of pets. He is super slow to warm up to other people but they got lap cuddles on day 2! Which is an accomplishment, you can tell they are big animal lovers. I was able to add a day on last minute and they also refilled the house humidifiers for me which was really nice of them! I’ll be using them again when I have to be out of town. Thank you for taking such good care of my Cat BFF and my little Betta Fish !!”
“This was our first time booking Talia and she did a great job for us! She came by to take care of our 2 cats as scheduled and she took great care of them. She kept in touch with us by sending pictures and notes. We really appreciate her so much. We will definitely schedule Talia to take care of our cats again next time. Thank you!!!”
About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.
About: I’ve spent my entire life around animals, and spending time caring for pets outdoors and at home is something I truly love. Growing up, I walked my childhood dog every day, which taught me patience, consistency, and a love for walking with my best friend. I’m an avid walker/hiker who loves exploring the outdoors, and while I plan to welcome an adventure-ready dog of my own in the near future, loving on and caring for your pets is the next best thing! In our home, my husband and I are pet parents to two long-haired cats - one we raised as a kitten and one we rescued as an adult cat - so I deeply understand routines, boundaries, and the importance of a low-stress, caring and understanding environment. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs patient company, I treat every pet with the exact same dedication, care, and respect as my own. What You Can Expect From My Visits & Walks ✨ Attentive, Tailored Walks: I stay alert to our surroundings at all times—actively watching for traffic and trail hazards—while matching the pace, route, and distance to your dog’s energy level. ✨ Thoughtful Cat Visits: Every cat has a unique personality. I let shy cats set the pace with calm, quiet companionship and engage outgoing, energetic cats with purposeful play, while keeping food, water, and clean litter boxes available. ✨ Reliable & Detailed Updates: You will always receive punctual check-ins, transparent communication, and photo updates after every visit so you have complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve been fortunate enough to be a cat momma to many cats for 16 years! I’ve had a cat with diabetes, a cat with kidney disease—— who, with my very attentive care, lived with the disease for many more years than the vets predicted, a safe space for a previously abused cat and I’ve taken care of a litter of kittens from 6 weeks old on! I’ve always been more of a cat person but I love all animals!
“Heidi was fantastic! She communicated well and took the best pictures of my 2 cats. I had to book last minute and she was very nice about it and was even able to stay an extra day when my flight was canceled. She took excellent care of the pets and the home. If I ever need to get a pet sitter again I will be using Heidi if she's available!”
About: I have always had cats in my life. Not only have I fostered kittens, I have a deep passion for senior cats. I have rescued seniors for the last 10 years and it has been so rewarding and fulfilling. I am extremely patient and gentle with all ages of cats.
“Amber did a phenomenal job with our cat Mila.Our actual sitter cancelled on us for thanksgiving last second and Amber was able to accommodate Mila for drop ins. She went above and beyond for her care. Mila is an anxious one and we found TV on with some animal sounds to keep her company while we were gone. Definitely recommend!”
“Maria was amazing with our 3 dogs! Our regular sitters they have grown accustomed to over the years were not available and while our dogs are friendly, they have their specific quirks and needs. Maria adapted to them with ease and provided everything they needed while we were gone. It was a great relief to have someone we could trust and rely on providing such attentive care! Not only this, but she also picked up their poop from the yard every day and threw it out, left the house tidy, and collected the mound of packages we accrued over the week we were gone. Thank you so much, Maria!”
About: I have been pet-sitting for friends and family since I was 14. I work remotely and am able to stay with your dogs/cats during the day if necessary. I love being active and taking dogs to the park or on walks everyday. I am a dependable sitter who has experience with both, puppies and elder dogs. I have sat for dogs with disabilities as well (blind, specific medication needed). My schedule is very flexible. Since I work remotely, I can house-sit and dog/cat-sit any day of the week for however long or whatever hours you need me. I am also free to walk the dogs multiple times a day as well. I am a trustworthy 25 year old woman who will respect your home and treat it as if it were my own. I always clean up after myself and respect the rules of the house-owner. I can be available 24/7 via my phone for updates/check-ins if needed.
“Olivia was reliable about stopping by as scheduled and helped clean up a plant the cats knocked over while we were away, unpacked an order from Chewy and was flexible when we decided to extend our trip partway through, which I appreciated. Communication was straightforward and the animals were all happy and healthy when we returned. There were a couple small care details that didn’t quite match the instructions, but overall she did provide coverage while we were out of town.”
About: Big animal lover welcoming cats of all energy levels! I’ve just finished up fostering an anxious and very energetic cat named Chloe. I can provide redirection, basic training, harness and carrier training, and administering oral and topical medication. I love finding out a cat’s love language and hope to be your furry friend’s second best companion!
About: I am a self-sufficient, independent living in Monument, CO who has taken care of two amazing dogs for the past ten years. They are 75lb lab mixes. Since I have them, I prefer not using my home, but I am more than happy to do house visits. I have rescued and rehabilitated all my dogs with grace and patience. I adopted my third dog, a senior dog, Chloe when she was nine years old and cared for her until she passed last year at the age of 14. I strongly believe in being happy and healthy and my dogs as well as yours deserve the same. I am committed to giving your dog(s) the best treatment possible, I promise to love them as if they were my own! My hope is that my flexibility will allow pet owners to relieve some stress and get the help needed especially for the holiday season! I am currently working at a cardiology office Monday - Friday. I am available evening and weekends as needed. I am available weekends for overnight if requested. I always keep a close eye on my furry friends while they’re outside. I’m constantly monitoring for potential hazards, such as something they could injure themselves on, as well as the temperature outside. I always make sure to come prepared with a backpack that contains water and a bowl, as well as a small first aid kit, in case, either of us gets injured! I have some medical experience, and I can sometimes transfer that experience to my pets.
About: I am a seasoned, responsible, gregarious, fun-loving cat/dog lady with full day availability and weekends to take care of your pet needs like they were my own. I get up with my puppy everyday feed and play a game with then take him on a morning walk. If I run some errands, he is crate trained (by me) and has some quiet time but when I get home, we normally take another walk and play a game in the backyard that requires him to run around. I also take him out multiple times a day for potty breaks. I live on a one-acre property with a fenced in yard. I have a 3 year old Labradoodle (Lincoln) with all his shots and he is very good and well socialized with other animals.

“Nikki did a fantastic job taking care of our 6 month old puppy. She treated him as her own and sent updates with details on how the day was going. She also sent pictures. I would recommend Nikki to everyone.”
About: I grew up with dogs! I l have always been asked to watch a freinds dog or a family friend’s dog! I have plenty of experience with animals, I used to foster dogs and puppies, I did that for 2 years! I stay at home mostly all the time, I mainly do school, and take care of my dog or I clean up the house. I prefer it that way. I live in a very open house, nothing that animals would hurt themselves with around, a big fenced in backyard, tons of toys and plenty of food and water
“Michele and her husband provided excellent care for our two dogs over a three-day period. Their communication was consistently clear and effective. We will be booking again soon.”
About: I offer attentive, reliable pet care tailored to each dog’s needs. I have a 10 month old Golden Retriever who is friendly, playful, and loves every dog, creating a positive and social environment. I’m experienced with puppy routines, basic training reinforcement, and administering medications. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication so you can feel confident your pet is in loving, capable hands. I work from home most days, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision, and I can easily adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine. I do not have a fenced yard but our apartment has a fenced dog park. I provide a safe, loving environment where pets are treated like family. My own pet is my world, and I bring that same level of care, attention, and responsibility to every animal I look after.
About: I don’t work so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur babies. I have had dogs my whole life. As an adult I have cared for them in every stage of life, including bottle feeding new borns and administering meds. I treat them like family and believe in spoiling them. I have two little ones of my own right now and they are my babies, and I would care for yours the same. I currently don’t work so I am available for over night and day time care and lots of puppy playtime. Can also be available on short notice. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies of my own to keep yours company. We allow them on the couch and in bed for over nights stays if that’s what you prefer. Can also crate them if needed. They are family in our house.
“Bettina and James are such nice people who did a great job taking care of our energetic dog. Their dog Sam was a great play buddy. Jackson came home tired and happy. We highly recommend Bettina, James, and Sam!”
“Jordan and Chris were amazing, highly recommend!! Our fur baby, Axel, can be very particular with his people, but he warmed up to Jordan straight away. They were willing to meet for an initial meet and greet, which really gave us a peace of mind. We received updates, along with pictures during his stay, needlessto say Axel was already snuggling with Jordan and invading her space like he does at home. Thank you so much for taking in Axel and treating him so well. We wished we lived closer!”
About: I am a native to Colorado and love the outdoors. Growing up, I had a house of large dogs (mastiff's, huskies, newfoundlands, golden retrievers, shitzu's and chihuahuas). I am very familiar with most large and small breeds and their needs. We have a 1 year old neutered Yorkie and he loves new friends. Our family loves animals and we would love to sit with yours, love on them, take them on our adventures (walks), cuddle with them, play with them and make them feel very comfortable . We will take care of your babies the same way I take care of mine. Our day starts out with potty time at 5:00am and have breakfast. After breakfast, we will go on a quick (20 min) morning walk. There will be lots of time to play and nap throughout the day before dinner at 5:00p.m. After dinner, we go on another evening walk and then call it an evening. The animals are like our family members and are able to nap and get comfortable where they see fit. I have a fenced yard with 1 small dog. We go on daily walks, car rides and have lots of toys throughout the house. I have several years of experience working with animals and your animal will be in good hands.
“Alisha, Luis & their family were awesome! They treated our Lulu like she’s their own. I cant thank them enough! We enjoyed our stay in Colorado knowing the Lulu was safe in their home. If i could give them 6stars i would!”
About: Hiya! I’m Sharon, animal lover and friend to all creatures big and small! I grew up taking care of everything from dogs to cats, fish, anoles, rabbits, birds, and guinea pigs. I have a special bond with my elderly family dog and have just finished fostering Chloe, a high energy anxious kitty belonging to my friend. I have plenty of experience with basic training, redirection, harness and carrier training, and oral and topical medicine administration. I hope to be your pet’s second favorite human!! I currently work part time as I prepare for law school, so I have lots of flexibility to focus on pet care! I love to schedule some hikes and trail runs into my week, so I’m always happy to give your pet a fun run! I am always happy to have a meetup before watching your pets to see if we all get along! I am attentive to animal body language and am good at making sure any dog or cat doesn’t get to the point of lashing out. I can assist with redirection or other training if needed. If your pets have any specific needs or you have restrictions or concerns, I’m open to chatting and seeing if my services can align with your needs!
“Courtney was amazing! She was able to watch my dogs Winston and Clementine for the day while I had a long work shift. She gave me lots of updates even just for the short day and they had a great time! Courtney and her family were so nice and I can’t wait to use them again!”
“My very energetic pup has a blast at Samantha’s house and loves her husband too. She’s gets lots of attention and comes home very happy n tired!”
“Bruce had a fantastic day with their family! I know because Olivia was kind enough to send adorable pictures and videos. I am so glad I was able to find such a wonderful family that looked after him as if he were their own. I couldn’t have hoped for a better day for the little fella!”
“Lorriane was great with Izzy. I recently moved to the area and needed pet care on short notice. Lorriane was quick to respond and great to work with. Izzy enjoyed the stay and Lorriane kept me updated on the days activities. Without a doubt, I would use Lorriane again for pet care and we are now comfortable we have located a caring individual to look after our pet in the future. Thank you Lorriane.”
“Melinda was great with Zoey!, she watched her for 2 days and Zoey was completely cool with going back the 2nd day. Melinda sent us updates and pictures of Zoey during the day. I would definitely recommend Melinda, and if we return to Colorado Springz will use her again 😊❤️”
About: I have had pets my entire life, but as an adult only had dogs. I am a physical therapist by trade so I do have a health background. I have done insulin shots for a diabetic cat and ACL rehab for a dog. I have done bandages for small wounds from sharp rocks when hiking or a torn nail. Let me know your pups needs! I did Rover over the summer while ai was home and loved it! I do work outside my home, but my schedule and hours vary. If I need to check in on your pup or provide a snack, don’t hesitate to reach out. I do have some days where it can be 7-8 hours that I am gone, but I will let you know if that’s the case. I am married and the mom of 3 teen age girls who love dogs and want another one. They would love to cuddle, love and play with your dog while in my care! I will take your dog on daily walks with our dog pup and make sure they are happy! Our dog Tulsa loves other dogs and warms up quickly. She loves walks and hikes. She is not food aggressive at all but loves treats! Let me know what your pup needs. Tulsa is crated during our absence and I would prefer to do the same for your pup if we are out. When I am home, Tulsa gets free rein of the main floor and supervision in basement and upstairs for safety. She sleeps in my bedroom and night and I would do the same for your pup, or crate if that’s what you prefer. Tulsa is trained to ask to get on furniture but is sneaky sometimes. If your dog is allowed on furniture, we will allow that on our main sofa, but keep them off our front room sofa - it’s white. I can accommodate special diets and medication, but Tulsa does not have either of those.
About: I’m an animal lover with three years of dog‑sitting experience. I’m happy to welcome your pets into my home, and I’m equally comfortable caring for them in yours. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well‑loved while you’re away. I work from home and have a really flexible schedule. This means your dog will never be alone and I can walk them at their regularly scheduled time. I have two small dogs - one 9 pounds and one 16 pounds. They love to have friends over to play. We also have a fully fenced backyard where the dogs can run, play, and get fresh air.

About: Our pets are our family and they should be treated as such ❤️. I am a full time nurse and do not need this job but I have two dogs that were very difficult and stubborn to train and I would have loved to have someone like me to be there if I went out of town or on vacation because I only ever trusted myself with them. I never went on vacation in their younger years because I was so scared someone would be mean to them or not care for them like I would if I boarded them. So I have decided to do this part time because every pet should be treated with love and care because they ARE our family ❤️🐾. I assure you, you won’t be disappointed if you trusted me with your family. I love all animals so much and quite frankly we don’t deserve their love and loyalty ❤️. Please choose me! I am working full time so I won’t be able to take all jobs but please reach out and I will try to make it happen. My schedule fluctuates so I can’t give certain days but if I am off work I will be there. I will treat your dog as you would just let me know any restrictions, dietary concerns, medications if they take them, certain ways they like things done or special things you would like done for your loved one and it will be done.
About: My husband Zach and I have transitioned from petsitting for friends and family to petsitting across Colorado and beyond. Over the past 18 months, we've booked 35+ house sits in 8 different countries, across 3 continents. When we aren't traveling internationally, we love to meet new fur friends closer to home. We have experience with senior dogs and cats requiring medication and specialized care, with rescues who often have unique and specific needs and adolescent dogs and cats that need their training reinforced. While my husband typically works an in-person job during the week, I am currently working remotely part-time and can offer my full attention to pet-care. Despite working, we are both available any day of the week and can build our schedules around your needs! We want your pets to feel comfortable and at ease during our time together so we prefer to meet all clients beforehand to build a relationship of trust and friendship on your pet's terms.
About: I graduated with a 4.0 in Vet Assisting at PIMA. I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I personally own a 5 year old English Bulldog, a 13 year old cat and my 12 year old leopard gecko has passed. I love animal-loving people, animals and helping them! I have full availability at the moment as I look for other employment. I would love to give some of my attention to a pet in need of sitting or daily walks! My dog stays in a crate while I'm away from home and at night. He likes to snuggle every morning. We go to the dog park at least twice a week. My cat always has food, fresh water, and a cleaned daily litter box. My lizard had a clean cage and was fed 1 to every 3 days with meal worms or a super worm as a treat.

About: About Me Hi, I’m Ashley! I’m a wife and mom to two boys, ages 8 and 14. We’re a big animal-loving family and definitely have a full house already! We have two dogs of our own a Goldendoodle named Gus and a Boston Terrier named Bosco… as well as two bearded dragons and a leopard gecko. My boys would probably love to keep adding more animals, but I think we have enough for now! 😂 I have experience pet sitting for friends and family and have also helped care for pets in my neighborhood. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while their families are away. I’m excited to use Rover to meet more pets and families in my community and continue building my pet-sitting experience. I’m dependable, caring, and will treat your pets like they’re part of our family! Right now, I have a very flexible schedule. I work from home with no set hours and my kids are both in school so have lots of free time ! I love doing a meet and greet beforehand so I can get to know your pet and their routine. I appreciate detailed instructions and will follow them closely to keep your pet comfortable and cared for. I’ll also send updates and photos so you know they’re happy while you’re away!

“Ty so much!! Very reliable!! Love Emily - she goes out of her way to make sure your pets are cared for, even during snowstorms :-) she was there every day despite feet of snow!!”
About: I grew up with 6 bulldogs who needed attention both medically, physically, and emotionally. I genuinely love dogs and treat all of them like my own; understanding that dogs are family! I recently graduated from high school ant Palmer Ridge and am attending HVAC school in the fall at Pikes Peak ( this program will be part-time leaving me time to care for dogs). I enjoy caring for dogs in their own environment as I have found many dogs become stressed when they have to adapt to new environments. I appreciate detailed instructions on your dogs feeding and activity level to in order to best take care of them!

“We booked Allyson last minute when our previous sitter cancelled last minute. She came and met our dogs the day before our trip and they instantly loved her! She did an excellent job of walking them and then feeding them afterwards. She sent a photo of them after each walk and they both looked so happy. They clearly loved Allyson and they looked forward to their daily walks. We will definitely book Allyson again. 💕😊”

I can be available 24/7 via my phone for updates/check-ins if needed.
About: With a lifelong love for dogs and years of hands-on experience, pet care is second nature. Over the past few years, I've cared for friends’ dogs, walked neighbors' pets, and volunteered at my local shelter. Having my own pup, I truly understand how nerve-racking it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. Rest assured, I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety and happiness. My experience includes handling reactive and highly sensitive working breeds, thanks to extensive training with my own pup, an 80lb working line German Shepherd. This background equips me to confidently manage high-drive and more challenging pups, including those with reactivity, fearfulness, or dog-aggressive tendencies. I understand the importance of maintaining consistency with training for both puppies and older dogs. If you're going away for an extended time and want to keep up training routines, let me know—I’m well-versed in both positive reinforcement and balanced training approaches and am happy to continue or maintain obedience work as needed. Currently, I’m accepting drop-in and walking clients, but I look forward to expanding my services to include boarding and overnight visits in the near future. Regular photo updates will ensure peace of mind while you’re away, and I’ll always accommodate as best as possible to keep your dog’s mental well-being a priority. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! If you have any questions, concerns, or requests, please feel free to reach out! I currently work from home 3-4 days a week with a flexible schedule. Please let me know what dates and times you need care and I will do my best to accommodate. NOTE: If you are requesting house sitting services. I will likely need to have my pup with me. He does get along wonderfully with other dogs and can be crated/separated if needed. I'll make sure your pup feels happy, secure, and engaged. Every visit is personalized to match the dog's routine and preferences, with plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. Details are clarified ahead of time, from behavioral traits to dietary needs, to make sure each dog gets the care they deserve. Regular photo updates are shared to keep owners connected and reassured. Prioritizing each dog’s overall mental well-being means taking the time to engage them with games, positive reinforcement, and activities that make them feel loved and comfortable.

“First time using Rover/boarding my dog with Breanna. It was a terrific experience! Breanna was very quick and responsive before/during/after my dog’s stay with her. It was great seeing photos/videos of his visit for extra peace of mind while I was out of town; I could see he was having lots of fun and enjoying his time with the other pups. 10 out of 10 fantastic boarding experience! Would recommend working with Breanna.”
“Our dog is a rescue and I am never sure how she will react to other dogs, but Gayle is a pro and knows how to integrate the dogs safely and cares for each one. We appreciate the extra attention she gives.”
“I was nervous leaving my pup as he has had a couple bad experiences at different daycare, but I am so grateful for Courtney! She took such great care of Douglas and you can tell she has so much experience with dogs when you speak with her. I cannot recommend her enough! I know i can feel totally confident anytime I need to leave my pup.”
“April and her family did an excellent job taking care of Miko and Kobe. When I dropped off Miko, she had a procedure on her leg, so she had to keep her stitches in for an extended period of time and wear a cone while being boarded. April made sure Miko was not too active during her stay. I appreciate being able to board my dog knowing that she is in great hands!”
“Another great stay with Moriah! We appreciate her attention to detail and the level of care she gives Zia. Zia always looks like she is happy and having fun in the pictures Moriah sends, so we know she is safe and having a blast with her buddies.”
“Richard and Susan are amazing sitters, hands down. My wife and I always want the best for our big boy Smokey, and shoot, they delivered. We got lots of updates and pictures which was wonderful, but most importantly he had a great time and didn't even want to leave immediately when I came to pick him up! I take that as his official stamp of approval :) We'll be sure to use Richard and Susan going forward!”
“Bettina and Jim were an absolute dream come true! Being new to the area, we were a little nervous about leaving our poodle for the holiday week. But after our first visit, we knew he would be in good hands. They were the best, sent pictures daily of walks and good times while we were away ? highly recommend!”
“Sarah was great! She took very good care of Lucy and spoiled her. She sent pictures every day and kept me informed on how Lucy was doing. Will be booking Sarah in the future”
“Our Kody, Great Pyrenees/Old English Sheepdog, had a great stay with Breanne and her family! What a wonderful dog loving environment... and Breanne sends updates! We will definitely book with Breanne again 🫶”
“Absolutely thrilled with the experience Jake had with Olivia and Jason! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that Jake was in excellent hands. Olivia and Jason provided a warm and welcoming environment, ensuring Jake felt right at home. Jake had an absolute blast during his stay. They kept him active and entertained with plenty of playtime, walks, and engaging activities. It’s obvious they genuinely care about the dogs they look after. Jake returned home thoroughly exhausted from all the fun he had—always a good sign of a great time! Communication with Olivia and Jason was seamless. They kept us updated with pictures and messages, reassuring us that Jake was happy and well taken care of. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and loving hands. I highly recommend Olivia and Jason to anyone looking for a fantastic dog-sitting experience. Jake can’t wait for his next stay with them! Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Judy was amazing with our two hundred pound dogs (over 100 lbs)! Our Shepherd and Great Dane mix were so well taken care of. Judy sent photos and updates every day, which made us feel comforted while out of town. We don't trust everyone with watching our dogs, as we have leash/other animals/small kiddo/food restrictions, but Judy is well versed in caring for large dogs and gave us confidence all would be fine! We will definitely rely on Judy again in the future.”
“Wonderful sitter and very communicative! Estelle and Dave took excellent care of my dog for the week. Kira dog had a wonderful stay and enjoyed their home. We loved them and will absolutely have them watch my dog again!”
“Lexi and her family were phenomenal! They kept me up to date every day on how my dog was doing. The meet and greet was super smooth and helped me feel comfortable. Her dogs are so sweet and my dog got along so great with them. She even cuddled with them on the couch and they all looked like family. Would definitely book again!”
“Megan was wonderful! She watched over my pup for a week while I was visiting family, and safe to say he felt right at home with her! I will definitely be using her services again for any trips we go on!”

Has problems with trust with people and dogs. They took our dog under their wings. Actually helped him begin to find trust. Just a truely loving home for your love one.”
