Personalized care for your dog or cat - East Killingly
Highly-rated overnight sitters - East Killingly
“Samantha went above and beyond for our boys! We were visiting family in TN for the holidays. One of our boys came down with sudden and severe Lyme symptoms while we were gone. Samantha spent many hours with him in urgent care on New Year’s Eve. She even bought the workers there pizza! She was great at caring for him and giving him meds after. Her fenced-in yard and house arrangement are perfect for our boys. She sent daily pictures and videos of our pups playing with her dog Mac and snuggling with her family. We will definitely be using her again. In fact, if she’s not available, we might reschedule our vacation to a time she is!”
“If I could leave 10 stars I would! This was the longest time apart from my pup and was very nervous, Erica and family made me feel at ease with her communication and pictures of my pup. I feel at ease to have a sitter that is close and cares for a GSD who is anxious at baseline. Thanks you!”
“Sadie thoroughly enjoyed her stay. In the past, I tried boarding at a kennel but it was too stressful for her. It took days for her to recover from the experience. That was not the case with her stay with Lindsay. She returned home just as happy as the day we dropped her off. It was such a relief and I couldn’t be more pleased.”
“Jessica was wonderful with our springer spaniel pup. She took her for walks every day, made sure she had plenty of play time, and was well loved during our vacation. She sent updates with pictures every morning and night!! I would highly recommend Jessica.”
“Amazing! Great communication, super kind, took our pup in at the very very last minute!! Such a life saver. Kaya came home happy and tired. She seemed to love it there! Thank you so much 🥹”
“Phenomenal care! Amber is a wonderful sitter, very caring, kind, empathetic and truly loves dogs. My Dante got a lot of love and attention. Amber communicated well, plenty of updates, pictures and videos. Best care for your furry kiddo! Highly recommend Amber as your sitter.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea K! She took amazing care of my dog, Dexter, and went above and beyond in every way. Her home was spotless and provided such a clean, comfortable environment that immediately put me at ease. Chelsea’s attention to detail was incredible—she followed all of Dexter’s routines perfectly and made sure he felt right at home. What really stood out to me was her patience and genuine care. Dexter can be a little shy at first, but Chelsea took the time to help him feel comfortable and safe, which I truly appreciated. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own in a clean, welcoming space, Chelsea is the one to book!”
“Rhody always has a great time with Jessica and Abu. It's difficult leaving him as he gets older and Jessica is the only one we trust. She loves him like her own and takes such good care of him. Thanks to her we are able to travel knowing he's in the best hands. Always a 5 star experience!”
“Stay was awesome. They were super welcoming, accommodating, and were amazing with my puppy. She loved being there for the weekend and I loved the updates I got knowing she was ok. I love talking to them about better ways to train my pup and they are a great sounding board for a new puppy owner like me. I can't recommend them enough!”
“Nicole was awesome. When we first met you could tell she is an animal lover.She sent us pictures of Rainbow enjoying her time with her. She made us feel at ease since we were worried about leaving our dog with someone she didn't know for the first time. I would highly recommend booking with Nicole”
“Keasha and her son are the best ! First time using Rover and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. You can tell Keasha and her son love animals. Pictures and video updates were awesome to receive. Will definitely ask them to watch her again. Highly recommend.”
About: I treat every pet like my own, giving them loving, attentive care tailored to their needs. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets who need extra patience and gentle handling. I'm confident with administering medications, following special diets, and keeping routines consistent. I’m also comfortable with basic puppy training and reinforcing good behavior through positive reinforcement. Reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals are what make me stand out. I am a stay at home mama with plenty of free time and love to watch over your furry family! Just shoot me a text and I’m sure to make it work! I offer lots of walks and plenty of running room. My dog and I love going to the dog park and won’t mind taking yours as well!
“Great experience😊 this was the Second time Duke stayed with Bethany. Great to receive photos and updates daily. Also awesome that Duke cohabitated with other friendly dogs. He was exercised daily and Duke was clearly relaxed and content when I picked him up. Thank you Bethany!”
“Karen was very sweet and loving towards Struffoli. She was very thorough in making sure she had everything she needed to care for her. She was easy to get a hold of and sent lots of sweet pics. Would definitely ask her to watch our pup again!”
“Absolutely wonderful with my cat. He normally doesn’t open up to pet sitters right away because of separation anxiety but he opened up quickly with Alyssa. She took great care of my baby boy and kept me constantly updated on him”

“Tiffany has a very soft and kind nature. This works PERFECTLY in working with pets. While I hired her for cat-sitting this time, she met my dog as well in her preparation visit. He is in love with her, smile. I knew immediately my pets would be in great hands. I will not only use her again, but recommend her to Everyone. Highest possible score they allow on Rover. Great find!”
“I'm so happy I found Samantha to help out with my kitty, Charlie, who requires two insulin shots a day for her diabetes. It was my first time going out of state since my cat's diagnosis, but Samantha's thorough communication at every visit helped assure me that my cat was in good hands. She followed the instructions for our cat perfectly which I also really appreciate. We look forward to using her again in the future.”
“There are not even words for how wonderful of a pet sitter Sarah is! This was my first time using rover and I was very hesitant but Sarah has gained life long customers. Our cat is hesitant of newcomers and took right to her. She is so attentive and sends the best in detail daily updates with adorable pictures. I can’t recommend her enough and we are so thankful to have found her on rover!”
“Madison is absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our two dogs while we were away, kept everything running smoothly, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Mariah went above and beyond during the mid day drop in visits with our 12 weeks old puppy, always showing up with genuine care and thorough updates. We will certainly be using Mariah again in the future!”
About: I have owned cats for the last 40 years. And while that makes me as old as dirt, it has also given me loads of experience when it comes to their care. In addition, working in rescue has taught me about trapping, medical issues, fostering, foster failing (it's a thing...but cat math is different than regular math so it's totally fine), giving meds, syringe feeding, etc.
About: I bring a quiet, steady presence into every visit. Cats are highly sensitive to energy and routine, so I move slowly, speak softly, and allow them to approach on their own terms. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule and creating a peaceful environment where they feel safe and undisturbed. My goal is for your cat to remain relaxed and comfortable while you’re away, with care that feels consistent and respectful.
About: I grew up with four dogs over the past ten years! Friends and neighbors relied on me to walk and feed their pets and pet sit. I am currently a grad student going to clinical. I am available in the evenings Monday/Wednesday through Sunday! On Tuesdays, I am available during the day! I live in the Fox Point neighborhood and I feel comfortable walking and or running with your pet. I will treat your pet & home with love!
“Jillian is so great with my pets, especially my extremely nervous dog. She is patient and compassionate with him, and he seemed to warm up to her right away. Jillian is a great communicator, sending photos and regular updates about the pets. She is a comfort to my dog while I am away, and to myself knowing that my pets are in good hands.”
“Again, Katie did a fabulous job with my fur babies. My very skittish boy made an appearance 2 consecutive days without running by like the flash. Thanks again Katie. Looking forward to the next time.”
“Lauren did a wonderful job with my two dogs! Vizlas are high-energy dogs and she made sure they got plenty of exercise when she dropped in to care for them. She even cleaned up a mess the puppy made! Thank you very much😀”
“Marie took very good care of our kitty Maia. We could tell she was provided for very carefully when we got home. Anything we asked her to do was done and our place was also left super spotless. We’re very happy with the care and love that was given to our sweet girl. Although we missed her tremendously, we knew she was in great hands and that made our trip even better.”
“Erin has been wonderful! My Litter Robot was acting up and she researched so that she was able to troubleshoot and keep it running. Even my shy cat felt safe with her. If I could rate her services higher than 5 stars, I would!”
“Miranda has been wonderful with drop in visits for my dog. She is easy to work with, great communication, reliable, and clearly enjoys her work and spending time with animals.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - East Killingly
“Taelor has been incredible with my dog, Jerry! She watches him 2–3 times a week, and I couldn’t ask for someone more reliable, caring, and attentive. From the very beginning, she made Jerry feel comfortable and safe, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares for the dogs she looks after. Jerry also made a new best friend in her sweet dog, Piglet, which makes his visits even more fun! He always comes home happy, well-exercised, and relaxed, which tells me he had a great day under her care. Taelor keeps me updated throughout the day with photos and little notes, which gives me total peace of mind while I’m at work. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your pup, she’s the one to choose. Jerry and I are so grateful to have found her!”
“We’ve had a great experience with Trish. Gizmo is still new to us and can be sensitive with transitions, and she has been incredibly patient, calm, and accommodating from the start. He settles while he’s there (even if he hasn’t slept yet), and it’s clear he feels safe and well cared for. She’s kind, attentive, and truly understands dogs who need a little extra gentleness. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust and feel comfortable leaving him with. Highly recommend!”
“Melissa was amazing! She had our Sadie for three days of day care so we could go off and enjoy day trips with our visiting granddaughters and d.i.l. Sadie loved her and her girls, never looking back at us after that first day of drop off! Melissa sent periodic pics and updates of how our girl was doing, and was very accommodating as to drop off and pick up times. We would not hesitate to rebook with Melissa and highly recommend her for your fur babies.”
“Our sweet pup had so much fun with Marie and her husband for the days we booked. So much more joy and excitement we haven't seen in her in the mornings getting ready to go for the day to her new friend's house and more still when she was ready to come home. Will only trust this couple with our baby.”
“Winston usually barks at new people he meets, but barely barked when he first met Misael and then was obviously very comfortable with him quickly. I received several photos and updates on what they were doing and Winston was exhausted and happy when we picked him up. Planning on booking another stay in the future!”
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.
About: I’m a compassionate and dedicated animal lover with over 11 years of experience in pet care and farm management. From a young age, animals have been a central part of my life, and my love for them only continues to grow. Whether it’s through my own pets or helping friends and family, I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience in animal care. I’m on a mission to create a rescue and horse stall that will not only offer a safe haven for animals but will also serve as a place for children with autism and special needs to experience the healing power of animal therapy. My goal is to create an environment where both animals and people can thrive, connecting through the unique bond that therapy animals offer. What I Offer I provide a range of services with your pet happiness as my top priority, including: • Nail care and baths • Dog walking and pet sitting • Specially prepared homemade food tailored to your pet’s dietary needs I believe in offering care that goes beyond just the basics. Your pets will be treated like family, and I promise they will be in the best hands possible. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet’s needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m here to help! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family members. Please feel free to share your preferred schedule, here on rover and I’ll do my best to accommodate both your needs and your pup’s. Thank you. I have a partially fenced yard with a river in the back, and my two pups, Nala and Winchester, are here to keep your dog company—there will be plenty of activities and fun for your pup! For the safety and well-being of all pets in my care, I do require an up-to-date vaccination record for each pet. I also ask for a brief overview of your pet’s daily routine, so I can maintain their schedule and ensure they stay comfortable and happy during their time with us. Additionally, please feel free to share any important details, such as potential triggers, resource guarding tendencies, allergies, or anything else I should know. I’d love to also hear about their favorite treats, toys, and activities to make sure they have an enjoyable stay!
“This is a review from a repeating costumer… I am very happy with Anely. I trust leaving my pup Nico with her for daycare. My pup comes home tired and happy after a day under her care.”
“Jessica was great with our springer who has a lot of energy. We contacted Jessica last minute and with no hesitation she was available. She made our dog feel comfortable all day. She sent updates and pictures !! We will definitely be using Jessica again in the future. Thank you so much”
“Jessica was communicative and flexible and I feel so lucky we were able to book her on short notice, she really saved the day! My dog was relaxed and tired when she came home, which says a lot, she is a very anxious dog and I am so grateful when we find sitters who put her at ease. Thank you Jessica!”
“Kayla was amazing with my dog! Each time I picked him up, he was happy, and clearly well cared for. She took amazing care of my pet even though he has a broken leg and has restrictions. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her services are absolutely worth every penny.”
“Elba is wonderful and Sonny loved spending time with her. He loved running around her yard and made friends quickly with her. She is very responsive and wonderful at communication, she is experienced and knowledgeable. I recommend her 100%!”
“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”
“Keasha was great! She watched my 4 month old puppy for the day and he had a great time. He is a little shy and she really helped him gain more confidence. He came home exhausted after a fun day of walks, playing outside, and cuddles.”
About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve been working with animals for as long as I can remember! From hamsters to horses - I’ve cared for nearly any animal you can think of. I attended Norfolk Aggie, majoring in Animal Science. Since then, I’ve worked as a vet tech, grooming assistant, assistant trainer, and in multiple barns and kennels. Aside from caring for pets, I currently work from home on my fiancé and I’s business, and do freelance photography (always happy to get some cute pics!) Training is a massive aspect of pet care. It’s important to have a sitter that understands your goals, reinforces correct behaviors, and constantly works to improve. Aside from training, having expertise in many areas of pet care, along with having experience with many different species, breeds, and personality types allows me to confidently handle any situation. Not only do I offer top notch care - I’m a huge communicator! I send lots of updates and adorable photos. When booking with me, you will never have to worry or wonder what your pets are up to (Check in as often as you want! I encourage it!) I also offer bathing & nail trims! Please feel free to ask any questions, my priority is always the comfort of you and your furry friends. Looking forward to hearing from you! Aside from caring for other pets, most of my work is online. This allows me to be flexible of when or even where I work. Feel free to let me know exactly what you’re looking for, and we can come up with a plan! Every pet is unique, and needs different things! I tailor my visits to each individual animal. My goal is to create a happy and loving environment for your pets while you’re away, and earn your trust so you can leave your worries behind!
“Bethany is an amazing dog sitter. Our pup loves her! We couldn't ask for a better sitter!! She sends us pictures of our pups adventures and he gets so excited to go there!”
“Dani was amazing! Took my dog to her 3x and she was excited each time. Photos and updates were sent without asking. I would definitely book anytime to take care of my fur baby. I highly recommend.”
“As always Leanne and Michael do an amazing job with Teddy. We have nothing to worry about when we leave him with them. She takes care of him like she does her own Bailey!”

“We had a very chaotic week from an ER visit to the emergence of separation anxiety. Jessica did a great job helping us out and calming our nerves. She was great with our dogs and I would recommend her to other dog parents.”
“Samantha has been doing a great job taking care of our puppy during a time of transition. He’s adjusting to having us home less on certain days and it gives us peace of mind to know he is well cared for.”
About: It's my mission to be your pet's newest favorite human. I've been volunteering, rescuing and fundraising for Paws Cat Shelter in Putnam CT since 2017. I'm also their mascot appearing in many downtown events. If the cats only knew the lengths I go for them! I have five cats of my own (Penny, Bentley, Boober, Mokey and Wembley) and I'm a dog mom to Frank, a mini Aussie Shepard. I've done home and pet sitting for friends and co-workers and I know the importance of finding someone reliable and trustworthy to watch my own animals. I'm comfortable with giving meds, syringe feeding, poop scooping and litterbox digging. I work full time as a Financial Systems Analyst for EG America (Cumberland Farms) but my schedule allows for flexibility. I can do drop-in visits or set up shop in your kitchen with my laptop if you don't mind sharing your WiFi. Just give me all of the detailed instructions/routines (like, go full-on OCD, I can appreciate that!) and I'll take care of the rest. I like to send text updates and pictures so you're at ease knowing your kids are happy and healthy.

About: Lots of experience taking care of dogs. But could take care of cats too. Experience with horses as well and overnight is an option as well .

About: Hi!! I’ve had experience with animals for my entire life, and I’m looking for a bit more experience to build up my portfolio for veterinary school.

My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and comfortable, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in stable, attentive hands. I’m currently in school and have a lot of time in between classes! I have tons of times to take care of your best friends! When pets stay in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment with consistent routines to help them settle in smoothly. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play, and I always monitor pets while outside. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers a crate for rest, I can easily accommodate that to maintain their normal routine. My goal is to create a peaceful, secure space where your pet feels at ease while you’re away.
About: I have worked with dog trainers so I know some training skills needed to help with certain behaviors. I can administer meds if needed.

I want your pet to be comfortable with me as much as you are with me caring for them!
“It was too wet/rainy outside to walk Gidget, but I kept the appointment time anyway. I wanted to start once a week walks for Gidget to get used to seeing Katie around before house sitting for us. Hubby said that she took the time to get to know her and vice versa. Very pleased with Katie.”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with a special place in my heart (and home) for furry friends. I’ve raised and trained dogs, including German Shepherds, and since moving from Boston to RI two years ago, I’ve loved turning my cozy, dog-friendly home into a little retreat for pups. We’ve got an acre of land to explore, and every day starts with a peaceful walk through our sunny neighborhood. Whether your pup is here for the day or staying overnight, they’ll get lots of attention, playtime, and love—just like they would at home. I offer: • Boarding in my home • Doggy daycare • Dog walking • Drop-in visits I’m reliable, warm, and totally dog-obsessed—every dog I meet becomes part of the pack. I’d love to care for yours next! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐾💛 I work remotely 4 days a week week. I often adventure locally with my husband in tow on the weekends hiking, doing outdoor activities, very dog friendly :) I live on a quiet road across from an apple orchard, not close to any type of traffic. I have about a half acre green backyard for dogs to run in with my supervision
About: I’ve had a dog of my own for a while and also have taken care of my neighbors pets for long periods of time! From walks, baths, feeding and playtime, I’m experienced in taking care and having fun with dogs of all ages. My dog in particular was a senior and she dealt with arthritis and liver disease, which would limit her ability to do certain things like long walks and going upstairs, or even eating. I do have the experience of taking care of senior dogs that may need this special treatment. I also walked King (pictured) as a volunteer for PAWS NY. This organization has volunteers who walk and/or take care of pets for those who are unable to do so themselves. My job is remote, so I can work from anywhere. My hours are also very flexible, so I am able to work around your schedule! I am also available anytime on the weekends! My area is safe and very pet friendly. The neighborhood is very residential, and there are a few parks nearby. There is also plenty of accessibility and perfect for pets!
About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.
About: Hi! I’m Johnny, a dependable and caring dog lover! I’ve always had a natural connection with dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether that’s going on long walks, playing fetch, or just keeping them company. I’m currently just looking to be a dog walker around the area! I offer short and long term walks as well as play time in a safe nearby park if you are looking to get extra energy out! Your dog’s safety always comes first, and I stay attentive and aware during every walk. I work a full time job with a rotating schedule but I am happy to help accommodate someone if a tight spot and needs a last minute dog walker! I have plenty of days off during the week so I am very flexible! I have watched dogs in my home for family and friends when they are out of town for a few years and I have a 2 year old golden retriever who gets spoiled with treats, walks and playtime! I currently have a rotating work schedule which gives me a lot of time off. Looking to help dog owners in the area who are looking for a reliable dog walker I have a 2 year old golden retriever who loves attention and being outside. I simply enjoy spending time with her and would do anything to keep her safe
“Rich has always been super awesome. Goomba loves when he comes around. Super responsive and knowledgeable no matter what dog. Definitely would recommend booking him if you’re planning a trip or getting away.”

“Samantha went above and beyond for our boys! We were visiting family in TN for the holidays. One of our boys came down with sudden and severe Lyme symptoms while we were gone. Samantha spent many hours with him in urgent care on New Year’s Eve. She even bought the workers there pizza! She was great at caring for him and giving him meds after. Her fenced-in yard and house arrangement are perfect for our boys. She sent daily pictures and videos of our pups playing with her dog Mac and snuggling with her family. We will definitely be using her again. In fact, if she’s not available, we might reschedule our vacation to a time she is!”
“If I could leave 10 stars I would! This was the longest time apart from my pup and was very nervous, Erica and family made me feel at ease with her communication and pictures of my pup. I feel at ease to have a sitter that is close and cares for a GSD who is anxious at baseline. Thanks you!”
“Sadie thoroughly enjoyed her stay. In the past, I tried boarding at a kennel but it was too stressful for her. It took days for her to recover from the experience. That was not the case with her stay with Lindsay. She returned home just as happy as the day we dropped her off. It was such a relief and I couldn’t be more pleased.”
“Jessica was wonderful with our springer spaniel pup. She took her for walks every day, made sure she had plenty of play time, and was well loved during our vacation. She sent updates with pictures every morning and night!! I would highly recommend Jessica.”
“Amazing! Great communication, super kind, took our pup in at the very very last minute!! Such a life saver. Kaya came home happy and tired. She seemed to love it there! Thank you so much 🥹”
“Phenomenal care! Amber is a wonderful sitter, very caring, kind, empathetic and truly loves dogs. My Dante got a lot of love and attention. Amber communicated well, plenty of updates, pictures and videos. Best care for your furry kiddo! Highly recommend Amber as your sitter.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea K! She took amazing care of my dog, Dexter, and went above and beyond in every way. Her home was spotless and provided such a clean, comfortable environment that immediately put me at ease. Chelsea’s attention to detail was incredible—she followed all of Dexter’s routines perfectly and made sure he felt right at home. What really stood out to me was her patience and genuine care. Dexter can be a little shy at first, but Chelsea took the time to help him feel comfortable and safe, which I truly appreciated. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own in a clean, welcoming space, Chelsea is the one to book!”
“Stay was awesome. They were super welcoming, accommodating, and were amazing with my puppy. She loved being there for the weekend and I loved the updates I got knowing she was ok. I love talking to them about better ways to train my pup and they are a great sounding board for a new puppy owner like me. I can't recommend them enough!”
“Nicole was awesome. When we first met you could tell she is an animal lover.She sent us pictures of Rainbow enjoying her time with her. She made us feel at ease since we were worried about leaving our dog with someone she didn't know for the first time. I would highly recommend booking with Nicole”

“Great experience😊 this was the Second time Duke stayed with Bethany. Great to receive photos and updates daily. Also awesome that Duke cohabitated with other friendly dogs. He was exercised daily and Duke was clearly relaxed and content when I picked him up. Thank you Bethany!”
“My dog, Ramus, had the best time ever staying with James and Mallory. He was with them for three nights and I received pictures and text updates every day. I love how they just brought him into the fold of their family and included him in their daily life. They are definitely my pet sitters from now on!”
“Maisie's second stay with Chris and Whitney. She was very bummed to leave and was completely exhausted from all the play time she was able to get. We love that she gets to meet new friends to play with when she stays and a big back yard to roam around in.”
“Stacy took great care of our dog for 10 days while we were out of the country. Being far away from a much loved pet can be tough. But we had no concerns because we knew she was in good hands. When we went to pick up our pup was super happy and obviously enjoyed her time with Stacy in a very dog friendly environment.”
“Karen made our dog feel right at home and has a perfect fenced in yard that is dedicated to the dogs. Her Lab made the perfect companion to keep our excited pup busy and entertained. Karen also sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with, definitely going to be returning next time we need a sitter!”
