Personalized care for your dog or cat - Thompson
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Thompson
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“I am very happy to have found Mallory and James! I have a 3.5 year old boxer bulldog mix who has a ton of energy, and this is my first time leaving her overnight (other than at my parents). I had a family wedding across the country to attend to, so I did a test run the week before for my dog, Mocha. She did great at the test run, and for the wedding I left her with Mallory and James for 5 nights. They sent pictures and kept me updated that Mocha was safe and having fun. When we picked up mocha, she was sad to leave her friends and wiped out when we got home from all of the playing! I will definitely leave her with Mallory and James again, thanks so much for taking such good care of my baby!”
“We boarded our dog Lucas with Paola for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Paola kept us updated throughout the stay by sending us regular pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Lucas looked like he was having a blast—playing with the other dogs and enjoying his time. It’s clear that Paola truly cares for the dogs she watches. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter!”
“This was the second boarding service with Stacy. Stacy was very considerate and did an incredible job of taking care of Charlie and Joey. I know my dogs loved to staying with Stacy because she has a fenced backyard and they love to running around off leash anytime they want. Highly recommend her!”
“Lindsay and her husband took great care of our dog for the long weekend. They were so sweet to her, very communicative and I knew she was in good hands with Lindsay’s previous vet tech experience. We’ll be using them again next time we need a pet sitter ☺️”
“Melissa did a great job taking care of yummy! We had a two-week extended stay. She shared photo updates regularly and flags issues proactively. Would recommend to anyone.”
“I would leave my fur babies with Bethany again in a heart beat! She and her son took excellent care of lily and Liam. They had a great time snuggling with them and they were able to meet new fur friends which they really needed since they don’t get a chance to play with other dogs since this messy Covid started!”
“Cierra was a great overnight host for my pup! It was his first time staying over and she made sure that he felt right at home. She sent updates and photos throughout the day to show that he was relaxed in the environment and having a good time. Would definitely have my dog stay with her again! :)”
“Kevin has been an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Damai, over the past couple of years. Damai always feels comfortable and happy staying with her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m out of town. Kevin is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. Her dog, Dofus, is also very friendly and welcoming, and Damai absolutely loves spending time there. Kevin’s place has become Damai’s go-to home away from home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“Sent me pictures of my puppy and kept me updated! Loved how she took my puppy for walks and let her run in the fenced in backyard. Will definitely use her again! She was friendly and communicated!”
“Michael and his family do such a great job! They are so friendly, kind, caring, flexible, and amazing! I'm so thankful I have such an awesome place for my dog to stay when I can't be with him.”
“Our four-year-old golden doodle and one year-old golden retriever. Had a wonderful time staying with Nicole and family. They took as good of care of them as we would have. Will definitely use Nicole again and highly recommend her.”
“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines. We appreciated the great communication and our boys were tired when we picked them up which is not an easy feat for our Australian Cattle Dog puppy! he definitely gave them lots of exercise and attention. Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”

“We love Jane! 5 is not enough stars for her. She goes above and beyond and is so sweet to our fur babies and she is the best drop in babysitter! She truly cares, and sends pics and updates and really helps us when we are worried about the “kids” when we are away, would recommend and will be booking in the future!”
“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!”
“Rachel was absolutely phenomenal. One of our cats ended up needing antibiotics with his meals and she not only put it in his food but went and found him and ensured that he ate it all! And she did some serious clean up/management of our unexpectedly destructive second cat. She communicated extremely well, was kind and compassionate, and took everything in stride. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Another great job by Katie! My scaredy cat is warming up to Katie more & more. I’m grateful to have found her. I don’t worry about my fur babies while I’m away, I know they’re in good hands.”
“The fact the our cat Chloe came out of hiding when Samantha, a new person to Chloe, came by to take care of her and feed her says a lot! Samantha kept us up to date as well with pictures during her half hour visits. It helped also that Samantha was able to come by twice to meet Chloe before the weekend when we would be gone. We were very happy with Samantha and look forward to hiring her again in the near future.”
“Morgan did a great job stopping in and caring for both my dog and cat! She was very communicative before and during the visit, letting me know my animals were being well cared for. I definitely recommend her and will work with her again if the opportunity arises! Thank you Morgan!”
“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!”
“Tiffany was super prompt and professional, and so great with my kitty! I felt completely at ease knowing that she was going to drop in and visit him while we were away, and even sent me updates and pictures of him! My cat was in great hands with Tiffany and she truly loves animals. Very trustworthy and reliable. Also - her response time through the app is impeccably fast, every time! Highly recommend.”
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’ve been taking care of all different types of animals from lizards to ferrets to turtles and, of course cats and dogs since before I can remember! All of my life I’ve had and taken care of happy and healthy fur babies of my own that I treat with the utmost love, care, and attention so I’ll definitely treat your fur baby like my own as they should be treated. I’m currently a stay at home mom and I go to school online but outside of that I love taking care of my fur babies and other fur babies as well and have free time and availability to do so! My routine consists of starting the day at 7/8am and taking pup for walks, swimming, the dog park etc. and if you choose me for your pet sitter your baby (unless different needs must be met) will accompany us for a fun-filled day!🥰 I can do all day sits or overnight stays at your home. Or if you prefer me to do drop-ins to your home id be more than happy too! Whatever makes you and your precious fur baby happy.:) Note: I do have a 3.5 year old who usually accompanies me with my regular clients. If you choose me as your sitter this is good to note because I will only be able to be solo on some weekends. She has been around multiple different types of animals big and small since she was born. She is good with being gentle and knowing her boundaries but I recognize she’s still young so I can assure you constant supervision will be had for the safety of your fur baby and my baby. At my home, I also have a boxer who loves small dogs as well! They will be in great company. At your home, I will provide your pet and home with the utmost love and care. I will also be sure to provide you consistent updates to keep your mind at ease because I know how worrisome it could be leaving your fur babies behind and you want to be sure they are being taken care of. So I’ll be sure to show you just that!
“Rachel is fantastic! We knew we were in good hands starting with the meet and greet. Really took time to get to know us and our pup Tony. Very responsive and flexible regarding our plans, and patient and helpful! Then for the day of the walk she provided updates about our dog and I know they had a great time together! Our dog was in excellent spirits when we returned. We were nervous since we hadn’t had a walker come in years, but all fears were put aside with Rachel. Can’t recommend enough. She brings passion and care to her work!”
About: I’ve worked in the pet industry since 2021 and have years of experience providing attentive in home pet care. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to move at their pace, respect their space, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. From feeding and playtime to medication and litter care, your cat’s wellbeing is always my priority.
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.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Thompson
“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!”
“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.”
“Blu loved his stay with Colette and Sammy. . He was able to play out in fenced yard and he really connected with Colette. On his last day he made sure to give a little kiss. Thanks again Colette.”
“My dog loved it with them. With a new puppy I felt comfortable leaving her with them, and the did a great job with her. Loved the updates throughout the day. Will use them again as I feel safe leaving my puppy with them”
“We brought our Falco for daycare with Misael and we were so happy with the service!! Misael was super responsive and Falco seemed very happy to be there. Misael sent pictures and updates regularly. There was a nice yard and Falco was able to roam around to his heart’s content. Falco is a big boy and Misael and his family treated Falco like their own. We will be using his service again soon for overnight boarding and feel really comfortable with them. Thanks for making us feel like Falco is safe with you!!! Highly recommend!!”
“Love, Love, Love Everything. First time doing daycare for my dog and everything had been great. My dog is excited every morning to go. I get updates on my dog and don’t have to worry I know he is in good hands.”
“Amber was absolutely amazing when I was in need of last second care, she went out of her way to send me updates and photos throughout the day which I greatly appreciated as well as picking up and dropping off my baby. She’s a saint!”
“Zulma was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to allow Russell to get acquainted with his surroundings and safely meet her dog, Luna, who was a great teacher and playmate for him. We were so impressed by her understanding of dog behavior and especially her insight into Russell’s behavior and skin condition. We feel very comfortable and confident leaving Russell in her care, and we would highly recommend her!”
“I left my dog Pretzel with Sabrina overnight, and she was absolutely wonderful with her. My puppy, Hunter, also joined for doggy daycare and had a great time. He absolutely loves her, and she even shared some really helpful training advice for him. I definitely recommend Sabrina—she’s knowledgeable, caring, and truly great with dogs. I’ll absolutely be using her services again in the future!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own and foster puppies and adult dogs as well. We also have chickens. I love animals of all types and understand how difficult it can be to find someone you trust with their care. I am a Registered Nurse and caring for animals comes as natural to me as caring for people. Caring for your pets gives me the flexibility to spend time with them but also be available as a mom. My daughter loves animals and is very helpful and loving. I have a flexible work schedule and mostly work from home. I am able to interact while working and provide frequent potty breaks and extra attention as needed. I do feed separately to avoid food aggression issues which can sometimes happen in new environments. I have 2 dogs of my own and a fenced in yard. There is plenty of space to run and play and also lounge and nap! We’d love to know what your dog's typical routine is at home as well as any behaviors (food/toy aggression) or quirks we should be aware of. I will do my best to accommodate any special needs. Please let us know if they are on any medications or have any health issues. I DO NOT accept dogs that are aggressive, excessive barkers, non-house trained, destructive, or have severe separation anxiety. All dogs who stay in our home must be well socialized, healthy (i.e. not sick with any contagious diseases that could be passed onto humans or other dogs) and up to date on their vaccines and flea/tick preventatives. Required vaccinations: Rabies Distemper Bordetella (kennel cough)
“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: I’ve had the privilege of being a dog owner since the age of 13. Dogs are a part of my life and are so healing to the soul. I’ve had years of experience in loving and taking care of these fur babies. I do well with following instructions, being respectful, and creating a safe space & home for your pups. I would consider myself to be a great and responsible dog mom, sitter, and would love and take care of your dog like my own. I’m a stay at home mom and have the time to take care and play with your pups. I have space in my backyard for playtime and potty time and live in a beautiful neighborhood to go on walks for fresh air and exercise. My family spends a lot of time outside and so will your pup (weather permitting of course). I’m available during weekdays and weekends. My services include boarding and doggy day care. I have a backyard and beautiful deck to get plenty of playtime and sunshine. I also live right across the street from a large park that we can take trips to. I have a small and friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I will keep your dog on a leash while outside and/or can close off the deck for a more secure area.
About: Hello! I’ve been professionally caring for animals since I was 12 years old and got my first dog sitting gig. Over the years, my family has had every kind of pet: horses, sheep, dogs, cats, birds, iguanas even! I find great joy in showing the animals I work with lots of love and guidance. I’ve trained my own and others' horses, dogs and cats over the years and it’s just the most rewarding experience. I work part time and mostly from home which allows me to be available all day to care for pets. I’m a big fan of a consistent routine with animals rotating stimulation (exercise, play, training or enrichment) meals, rest and balancing the three. I care for pets on my property which is almost entirely fenced in. I have professional kennels in a mixed use building with a residential portion attached. So I have the luxury of providing secure and roomy kennels with the addition of our cozy home area. I can take most types of pets and I’m especially suited to care for animals that do not do well in large boarding facilities, don’t do well with other pets or just want a more personalized, quiet boarding experience. I don’t believe it is always necessary to socialize dogs with dogs and right now that’s not something I do (unless they are boarding from the same owners). I focus on routine, a bit of training and connection with humans! I have a fenced in run where dogs can be off leash for playing, enrichment etc. I designed our kennels myself and had them custom built. Each stall is separated by concrete walls to provide a private and safe space. I chose mental fencing for the top of the partition and the door. I chose this instead of the plastic, glass or solid door options because it provides optimal airflow and allows them to see out. I also have private suites separate from that area.
“Enid was great! Sent me lots of pics and kept me updated and made me feel comfortable! She has a fenced in backyard and Kuna came back happy and healthy! She was very accommodating when I got stuck in traffic on the way back and I really appreciated that!!”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our two dogs. They were well cared for and loved all day long. She sent photos of them playing and having fun throughout the day as well. We will definitely be using her again and are so glad to have found someone we trust with our babies!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Thompson
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 have had farm animals so I have that experience as well. I am looking to fill my time with some amazing animals because of my love for them. I take care of everything from farm animals to cats. I can watch cat friendly dogs in my home. I have gates and a safe environment. I am more than willing to watch pets in the clients home as well to make them feel comfortable and help with routine.
“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.”
“Jane is really the sweetest and so accommodating. She stays in communication during the walk before and after. Our Pup really enjoys her, so much he couldn’t wait to get in the crate today and have me leave for work so he could go for a walk with her ❤️?”
“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: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. Animals have always been a part of my family. I have been fostering a cat for a friend for a few months, and have taken care of a friends 3 massive dogs. Taken them on walks, fed them, and played with them.

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.

“Grace is an absolute gem, AND we were lucky enough to be her very first Rover walk! We have a 1-year-old bull terrier, Romani, who is crazy, hyper, and loveable in equal measure. Grace took it all in stride like she'd been doing this for years. She was incredibly sweet with her, and Romani loved her right back. She tracked her pee breaks and poop breaks and kept her out walking the full time (maybe a little over actually!). That kind of attentiveness and communication means the world when you're trusting someone with your fur baby. If you're on the fence about booking Grace, don't be. She's a natural, and we will 100% be booking her again. Give this girl all the five stars! 🐾”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was in elementary school, starting with my own pets and eventually helping care for the pets of family members, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them and building loving friendships with each one. Whether it's going for long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm also a proud cat owner, and caring for my own cat has given me firsthand experience in providing attentive, daily care and understanding the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. I genuinely love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have full time employment as a classroom teacher! I am now on summer break so I will have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pets!☺️ When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and companionship so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also keep their space clean, fresh, and stress-free, and I always provide updates with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. For dogs, I enjoy going on long, engaging walks and making sure they get both exercise and enrichment. For cats, I focus on gentle care, play, and respecting their comfort level—whether that means interactive play or quiet companionship.
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
About: I have taken care of a German Shepherd, Shih Tzus, and chihuahuas as needed for the past couple years. I work part time for a maximum of five hours a day so I am available to provide dogs with attention and care at home the rest of the time. :) I work part time for a maximum of five hours a day, when I am outside of work I spend most of time home. During the time I am at home I’m able to adjust your pets care according to your preference. I live in an apartment and have a small male chihuahua who gets along great with other dogs. I don’t have a restrictive environment and will happily allow your dog to rest on the couches and beds, and roam around the apartment. I don’t have a fenced yard but I can walk and take your dog potty on a leash.
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.

I am experienced in giving special care (medication, etc.) and would love to care for your fur babies! I treat each Rover client as if they were my own. I have had a yellow lab for 16 years, a black lab for 13 years, and currently have two cats of my own. I currently work from home most days, with weekends off.

It is important for pets to have a clean safe space, always! I believe in giving pets the same quality of life as humans
About: I decided to try letting a husky pull me on roller blades 27 years ago, and a bond was created that I am convinced was the greatest thing ever. I became an aspiring writer and began researching dogs, playing with them and loving them all the same. I understood that some people just had that dog thing, but I wanted to know why. Still working on my writing, and still researching, I started roller blading around Webster lake with a rescue puppy this past year. I remembered the incredible joys that a dog would have discovering the freedom, and it's really incredible. I don't claim to be a dog whisperer, but I have learned from studying dog behaviors and personalities. Honey has been incredible this season. Some dogs would rather just sniff, and it's arguably the most incredible of dog traits. Sometimes finding the space to run can be a challenge, but even just on a walk, it's all about giving them the chance to choose when you can. I have been an educator as a substitute and a paraprofessional, and enjoyed 20 years with a number of schools and institutions. Coaching tennis, track, and rock climbing, I love giving new experiences. As director for an adventure camp or as recreation games coordinator, I was able to incorporate a team into all the fun. Relying on the service industry for work, I have developed my communication skills in many fields. 3 years working for the May Institute with adults with severe disabilities gained me a humility not found elsewhere. In the Healthcare industry I found incredible individuals who just fit their calling, and you were better for being around them. The last 2 years I have traveled the state as a licensed pest technician solving homeowner problems, and keeping people safe. I enjoyed being a source of information, and health, and was careful to appreciate coming into someone's home and life. I'm currently planning on returning to school to attain my message therapy certification and utilize my background in health. It's a good plan with modification, and I am hopeful that Amazon flexibility will help. I'm the kind of person who starts with a smile, and believes that kindness is always an option. I understand that taking care of your animals and home is a sacred thing, and I will remain transparent and available. I'm currently working for Amazon, Sunday through Wednesday, and have Thursday, Friday, and Saturday completely free for services. Additionally I can be available for any other days with proper notice, due to Amazon's flexibility with their scheduling. Our yard is fenced in, and our two rescue dogs enjoy their space very much playing and running around. Our 16 year old cat enjoys being an inside/outside cat very much, and has adapted to our precocious new additions. Our back door is opened frequently.
About: I grew up with a sense of love and respect for all animals. I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember! I have taken care of many animals for friends and family while they were away! I’ve also had professional experience while caring for animals at a pet resort. We would board dogs and also have daily day care pups! I would feed and let the animals out while also administering any medicines that were needed. I was able to set up daycare play groups to enjoy time in the yard and socialize! I am available throughout the week, I’m always around for a great time with the pups! As I get more active in my personal life walking dogs and playing with animals is great physically and mentally! I have crate trained previous pups. While taking care of my dogs or anyone else’s the best time is when we can have fun but still be safe.
“From day one she respected the fact my dog just needed a minute to warm up to her. She’s a very respectful and awesome dog person! My pup Tony absolutely loved and looked forward to his time with her. Would recommend her to everyone and anyone! Was blessed!”

“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“I am very happy to have found Mallory and James! I have a 3.5 year old boxer bulldog mix who has a ton of energy, and this is my first time leaving her overnight (other than at my parents). I had a family wedding across the country to attend to, so I did a test run the week before for my dog, Mocha. She did great at the test run, and for the wedding I left her with Mallory and James for 5 nights. They sent pictures and kept me updated that Mocha was safe and having fun. When we picked up mocha, she was sad to leave her friends and wiped out when we got home from all of the playing! I will definitely leave her with Mallory and James again, thanks so much for taking such good care of my baby!”
“We boarded our dog Lucas with Paola for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Paola kept us updated throughout the stay by sending us regular pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Lucas looked like he was having a blast—playing with the other dogs and enjoying his time. It’s clear that Paola truly cares for the dogs she watches. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter!”
“This was the second boarding service with Stacy. Stacy was very considerate and did an incredible job of taking care of Charlie and Joey. I know my dogs loved to staying with Stacy because she has a fenced backyard and they love to running around off leash anytime they want. Highly recommend her!”
“Lindsay and her husband took great care of our dog for the long weekend. They were so sweet to her, very communicative and I knew she was in good hands with Lindsay’s previous vet tech experience. We’ll be using them again next time we need a pet sitter ☺️”
“I would leave my fur babies with Bethany again in a heart beat! She and her son took excellent care of lily and Liam. They had a great time snuggling with them and they were able to meet new fur friends which they really needed since they don’t get a chance to play with other dogs since this messy Covid started!”
“Cierra was a great overnight host for my pup! It was his first time staying over and she made sure that he felt right at home. She sent updates and photos throughout the day to show that he was relaxed in the environment and having a good time. Would definitely have my dog stay with her again! :)”
“Kevin has been an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Damai, over the past couple of years. Damai always feels comfortable and happy staying with her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m out of town. Kevin is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. Her dog, Dofus, is also very friendly and welcoming, and Damai absolutely loves spending time there. Kevin’s place has become Damai’s go-to home away from home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“Sent me pictures of my puppy and kept me updated! Loved how she took my puppy for walks and let her run in the fenced in backyard. Will definitely use her again! She was friendly and communicated!”
“Michael and his family do such a great job! They are so friendly, kind, caring, flexible, and amazing! I'm so thankful I have such an awesome place for my dog to stay when I can't be with him.”
“Our four-year-old golden doodle and one year-old golden retriever. Had a wonderful time staying with Nicole and family. They took as good of care of them as we would have. Will definitely use Nicole again and highly recommend her.”
“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines. We appreciated the great communication and our boys were tired when we picked them up which is not an easy feat for our Australian Cattle Dog puppy! he definitely gave them lots of exercise and attention. Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”
“Our pup was well cared for and appeared happy after her extended stay. Communication was efficient and Jessica was flexible. We look forward to working with the family again.”
