Personalized care for your dog or cat - Sterling

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sterling
“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!”

“I don't know how Albert does it. But Maggie and Lucy come home better behaved and exhausted after their stays with Albert. Maggie can be difficult with other dogs but he gets her to play with everyone and never has an issue. I look forward to the girls staying there again (and every time we go away). Thanks again Albert and Amanda”

“Highly recommend! Suzanne and family were wonderful, helping Yogi over his initial fears and making him feel part of their family. We received updates and photos during Yogi's stay. We will definitely use again.”

“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”

“We felt very comfortable leaving Louie with Dana. He got lots of exercise running and playing in the yard with her family dogs! She did a great job communicating and sending photos to keep us updated!”

“Carolina and her family opened their home to Godfrey for 5 nights. This was Godfrey's first time being away from me and he was in the best of hands. Carolina stuck to his routine and gave me plenty of updates. Godfrey is a very special dog and his personality was able to shine through with Carolina! I am so happy with the experience and would recommend her to anyone!!”

“Jessica was awesome. She took great care of our lab. She updated us daily with pictures and a short message. Our dog returned so happy and clean. I highly recommend Jessica. She really cares for these beautiful animals.”

“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”

“Our puppy had a great time staying at Brittany’s house for the day. I felt he was in good hands while we were gone for the day. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you Brittany!”

“Natalia gave great care to our dog for the long stay he had with her and their lovely Corgie Archie at their home. We got pictures nearly every day and she was responsive as needed. If you are looking to have your dog have good companionship they are a good choice.”

“Keasha continues to set the bar for pet care. We were delayed getting back from a trip and Keasha made sure to purchase additional food. She cares for our fur baby like she’s her own and gives us tremendous peace of mind.”

“Chris and Whitney took great care of my dog! They were great at communication and I felt assured that my dog was comfortable and well cared for. I highly recommend them and I would book with them again”

“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Hazel and sent a lot of pictures and updates. She also took her on nice walks and Hazel had plenty of outside time. She administered Hazel's medication each day as well. Overall, Elizabeth did a great job with my dog.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”
“Samantha and her family took great care of my pup Dyno. Samantha sent me pictures of Dyno walking, playing and having fun. She made me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Cierra and her family were amazing with Biscuit!! She sent pictures, was very communicative and flexible, and Biscuit was so comfortable and happy in her home. I will absolutely be contacting her next time I need a sitter!!”

“Dani is great with dogs. Our dog Hart spent the week there while we were on vacation. We got pictures and updates every day and he enjoyed his time there. Dani is conveniently located for us and very kind. Your dog will be in great hands!”

“Tiffany is wonderful pet sitter. She responds quickly, communicates well, is on-time, and sends pictures and texts about the visit. She took great care of my kitties when I could not. I highly recommend her!”

“Amanda is kind and caring. I trust her to care for my precious pets. We’ve used her services twice and are quite pleased. I highly recommend her. Thank you Amanda/Rover.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Sarah is awesome! And my cats, who are afraid of most people love Sarah. I rest easy knowing they are loved and cared for. I will book Sarah again for any future trips.”


“Ashley did a great job with my puppy. She is so kind and was proactive in asking where items were in case he had an accident and cleaned up his mess. I would definitely book her again.”

“Emily was so great with Kitty Carlisle! She checked in with her and played with her, in addition to checking food, water, and litter. I felt very secure knowing kitty was in good hands while we were away on a long vacation.”

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.
“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.”


About: I have taken care of cats since I was a young child and have always had a deep love for them. I understand how important it is to respect their independence, boundaries, and body language to help them feel safe and comfortable. I am patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with cats of all personalities.

About: I've always loved cats, and as a child, house sat cats for friends and family. I got my first boy in 2004, and have several since. While I'm currently a dog owner, cats always find me, and i make sure i find them, to love! Experienced with several health issues, but have not administered shots.
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!
About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was 12 years old. Horses, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, you name it! My love for animals is what inspired me to become a vet tech and I want to continue providing care for many years to come. I have several references available upon request. I'm currently available all 7 days of the week for overnight sitting, drop in visits, or walking services! I will plan to meet with you and your pet(s) prior to any confirmation of services to make sure it's a good fit for all of us. I prefer to care for animals in the comfort of their own homes. Having a daily routine that is specific to an animal provides stability, and removing them to a completely new area they don't recognize can be possibly damaging and cause significant stress. I will adapt to your pet's schedule and help make them feel at ease knowing they won't be forcibly removed from their home.

“Nicole is a wonderful sitter! She watched my cat Otis for me semi last minute on a holiday weekend. He is a shy kitty but he was comfortable with her immediately. She was on time, communicative, and super sweet. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been caring for animals at a very young age and feel that I have a special bond with all animals. I am a dog mom of two, and know how important our best pals are. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends. 😁 I’m currently a welding instructor on 3rd shift and have my days to myself (aside from sleeping). I am very flexible and hope I can help when it’s needed. I have 12 acres of land, two adult GSD and have my days to my self. I have the knowledge and passion to keep your pets happy and safe.

“Natalie stayed for two weeks with our cat who is turning 16 next month. She did a fabulous job caring for our cat. I felt very comfortable having Natalie watching her. Natalie made sure to keep us updated. I never had the thought of I hope everything is ok but I knew if I needed to I could reach out anytime and Natalie would respond. Not only did Natalie take great care of our cat but she also kept an eye on the house. I would not hesitate to have Natalie back and am so happy to have found her!”

About: I've cared for dogs and cats since I was 8 and loved every minute of it. I've frequently walked, fed, played with, and loved my cat, two dogs, and those of my friends, family, and coworkers! I have experience caring for fish as well. I also have experience with basic training commands like sit, stay, lay down, etc. I love being active and outdoors, so I have no issue taking a furry friend along for the ride. I’m a college student home for the summer using this as my daily dog fix + an enjoyable side hustle. Aside from my part-time jobs, I am very flexible. I'll work my schedule around your pets needs! I respect your privacy entirely and promise to go above and beyond for your pets. Pictures will always be provided so you can rest easy knowing your pets are safe and sound. Permission will be asked before any extra treats are given!
About: Welcome to my profile! With extensive experience in caring for a variety of dog breeds, particularly Australian Shepherds, my passion for fostering a positive relationship with both pet owners and their beloved animals is at the forefront of my pet care philosophy. As a dedicated and gentle pet owner, I aspire to create a nurturing environment for your pets while providing them with the attention and care they deserve. Beyond dogs, my caregiving expertise extends to rabbits, cats, reptiles, ducks, chickens, and ferrets.

Please also feel free to message me with any questions, my schedule can be flexible and adjusted based on your needs! I currently do not offer house sitting at my house because I don't have enough room for any additional dogs but I would care for them as my own.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sterling

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!
“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.”

“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.”

“I highly recommend Shelby! She provided top-notch care for Kuma and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. Communication was excellent and I was updated regularly with pictures and updates. I felt confident leaving my dog in their capable hands and will definitely be using their services again in the future. 5 stars!”
“First off, Taelor was great with my puppy, chowder. I got pictures and videos of her stay 🫶 Taelor was super understanding when my work meeting changed times, and I had to drop chowder off a little later. Piglet (her lab mix) was super friendly and gentle with Chowder (a small, 5month Boston terrier). They had a blast and I can’t recommend her more!”

“10/10 experience as a dog owner. I didn’t even have to reach out first to get an update on Gingi and she was professional, timely, and nice :) Gingi seemed very comfortable and happy in her care. I would recommend and book again without hesitation !”


“Jessica is a GEM!!!! I was nervous about finding someone to take care of my pup who can be nervous in new situations/people and had some health stuff going on, but Jessica did everything to make her feel comfortable and cared for, and now my girl LOVES hanging out with Jessica and Abu!! Jessica also did everything to make ME, nervous dog mom, comfortable by sending lots of sweet videos and pictures of my pup having a grand ol' time. Jessica is the best!”

“Abigail was great with our dog Yona. Our pup had the best time making new friends and going on walks with the other dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an experienced, professional, and very reliable sitter!”

“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.”

“Fantastic dog sitter! They were reliable, kind, and great with my dog. Communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you so much for taking the time and patience to enjoy Ocean and help ease my worry as well! Once he got home took a long nap I know he enjoyed himself. Looking forward to next visit in few weeks!”


“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!”

“Keasha was fantastic! I definitely hope to be a repeat customer of hers, for sure. She kept me updated throughout the day and she and her son were so welcoming to my pup, who’s really anxious around new people.”


“Leah spent the day with Brianna and her crew for the first time today and it was a great experience. Leah definitely had a blast with the other doggies! Brianna is confident and does an amazing job with the dogs.”

“Dana was awesome and Cali loved playing with her pups! She was able to watch Cali with such short notice and took great care of her! She sent me photos and videos throughout the day and kept me updated with how she was adjusting!”

“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.”

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!

“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.”

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 . I’m headed to college so won’t be around much after Aug. but could maybe fit some in on breaks and holiday's or next summer time . I do pet sitting in your home or business . I do not offer boarding options or have the means to take care of pets at my house
“Jeanette is awesome! She came before her first walk to meet us and was very nice. She was on time and sent us pictures of our pup. We are excited for her to come back this week!”


About: I am a dog lover who owns 3 dogs. One pit bull mix, one Dashhound mix, and a pit bull puppy! I am also a foster home for rescued dogs through East Coast Canine Rescue. I have one dog who is very high energy and needs to play outside daily! I will kick a ball for him, and he runs for it with his toy in his mouth. I have part of my yard fenced in for pups to run around like crazy. I am a stay at home mom- my time is very flexible. We have two crates if necessary. Treats galore! My dogs are like family- We love on them like our children. Your dog will be treated like our own. We can give baths as well. Your dog will be very comfortable at my house. It will be a pleasure to have them. I have a very relaxed schedule that will cater to your dog. My dogs live like kings. They are cared for very well. Your dog will also be treated as family. They are able to go out whenever they want.

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’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. This would be beneficial and enjoyable and open your schedule a bit. I’m currently at my normal job 4 days a week, on top of college, volunteering , and social obligations. I have 3 days off on which I can potentially be available. Im unavailable for any pet services in my own home, but I can commute to you and care for your pet at yours. I can do bathing, cage cleaning, walking, feeding, watering, playing, and any other necessary tasks. I will not stay anywhere overnight, but I can work with your animals for a few hours during the day.

About: Because Your Pet Deserves the Best, Even When You’re Away. I will care for your pet small, large, fluffy or feathery when you can't. Sometimes things come up or a well deserved vacation... there is no need when you pick me to worry about your loved pet family. I will treat them with respect, compassion, and love they deserve. I know that they are missing you. I will make sure that they have their own mini getaway when I am with them. This can be a walk, cuddles, or just tossing the ball. I can do stop ins for potty and food.. I can stop in and take them for a walk, or just stop in and play with them. I love all weather and am prepared for anything. Snow, rain, cold or storm. I am a stay at home mom who like any mom I am ready for anything. Last minute appointment (we all know that unexpected things happen. Don't worry about your pet message me), cleanups, accidents, snacks,protective (nothing will happen to your loved one with me), and even fun days outs. I am a mom and I am always ready for anything. It would be a honor to be invited to your home to check in on your loved one. I am extremely flexible and would enjoy meeting your pets. I would always treat your animals as I would want mine to be treated.

About: I bring a naturally calm, grounded presence into every home I enter. Pets are incredibly intuitive, and I prioritize creating a peaceful, steady environment where they feel safe and secure. Whether your dog is anxious, high-energy, or just needs consistency, I focus on maintaining a structured routine with patience and gentle guidance. 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.
“Great experience using rover for first time. I couldn’t walk my dogs because of ankle surgery. Ashlyne responded right away and came over on short notice and walked my two dogs, an 11yrs old black lab and an 1yrs old black lab / Belgian malinois mix. They both liked her and went walking with her with no hesitation. Plan to use Ashlyne again and highly recommend her.”

“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: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”
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
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages- from birth to little old pups and I am here to help where I can. I am a huge pet lover and have always helped family and friends take care of their pets when needed. Extra Note: I have taken care of and owned many types of pets- cats, goats, chickens, reptiles, ferrets and more! I am a college student with weird hours and time to spare! In the summer I am available most of the time with really no time constraints. The school year is trickier but I am still able to help when needed and ready to! However you care for your furbabies I will do the same! Just tell me what they love and don't love and we will work together. I want your pet to be comfortable with me as much as you are with me caring for them!
About: I’ve had pets including dogs and cats since I was a kid. I absolutely love all all animals and do have experience with senior pups. I have an extremely open schedule and lots of time to take care of your animals and house sit! I line and swing dance on Wednesday and Thursday nights, however it’s only for a few hours and it is skippable. I love animals more than anything and would love to make friends with yours! I am not available to board your pets unfortunately, but I do have plenty of experience with pet sitting and house sitting. I love going on walks and playing with pets, so your pets will always be well cared for under my watch.

“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!”

“I don't know how Albert does it. But Maggie and Lucy come home better behaved and exhausted after their stays with Albert. Maggie can be difficult with other dogs but he gets her to play with everyone and never has an issue. I look forward to the girls staying there again (and every time we go away). Thanks again Albert and Amanda”

“Highly recommend! Suzanne and family were wonderful, helping Yogi over his initial fears and making him feel part of their family. We received updates and photos during Yogi's stay. We will definitely use again.”

“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”

“We felt very comfortable leaving Louie with Dana. He got lots of exercise running and playing in the yard with her family dogs! She did a great job communicating and sending photos to keep us updated!”

“Carolina and her family opened their home to Godfrey for 5 nights. This was Godfrey's first time being away from me and he was in the best of hands. Carolina stuck to his routine and gave me plenty of updates. Godfrey is a very special dog and his personality was able to shine through with Carolina! I am so happy with the experience and would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”

“Cierra and her family were amazing with Biscuit!! She sent pictures, was very communicative and flexible, and Biscuit was so comfortable and happy in her home. I will absolutely be contacting her next time I need a sitter!!”

“Dani is great with dogs. Our dog Hart spent the week there while we were on vacation. We got pictures and updates every day and he enjoyed his time there. Dani is conveniently located for us and very kind. Your dog will be in great hands!”

“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”
