“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more happy. We typically take Dory with us on all our trips but we’re restricted due to time constraints and events held out of state. We were initially nervous to leave Dory overnight and have her stay with someone but she absolutely loved her stay with Patti, Oliver, and especially Beulah. Loved the picture and video updates and Patti was so responsive to our inquiries this nervous dog mom. Dory loved her time at Patti’s so much that we booked two more stays. Thank you Beulah for playing so much with Dory!”

“Rita went above and beyond to take care of our pups over our wedding weekend - she even kindly transported them to the venue for us for a quick round of photos. They had a great time!! She sent regular updates and was overall a real pleasure to work with. We knew our pups were in great hands with Rita! Thank you so much!!!”

“We have left Cooper with Andres several times now, and he has been very pleasant and accommodating from the first interaction. He sends picture updates throughout the stay, and is always sure to provide a "debrief" of the stay when we pick him up. Its very comforting knowing that if there is even the smallest thing, slightly out of the ordinary, Andres will pick up on it, and keep us informed. Cooper always seems to have a great time; whether it be running around with Lumpkin or any other dogs being boarded at the same time. We have been nothing short of pleased, and will continue taking Cooper to Andres. If you're looking for peace-of-mind boarding, look no further. Andres is top notch.”

“Thank you for taking such good care of our Woody! He loves staying with you, (we can tell from how excited he gets when we drop off & from the videos you share) and we appreciate the love attention you give him to help him feel comfortable in your home.”

“Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).”


“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”

“Bernice came home a happy and tired pup after a week with Brian and his family! We received pictures and updates throughout the week, letting us know she was safe and happy, and definitely in her glory with her new pup friends! We’ll definitely be using Brian again!”

“Ariana was AMAZING with our 2 boys. She was pleasant from the start all the way to the end. They were so happy when we picked them up. She sent photos of them on walks, playing, relaxing and just enjoying the company of such a warm hearted person. HIGHLY recommend her!”


“Marissa was so wonderful, accommodating and understanding. My plans changed a few times and she was incredibly understanding. She took wonderful care of Basil. It seems like he felt right at home with her. I appreciated the updates and the pictures. Thank you so much Marissa!”


“This was our first time boarding our dog, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Chyann was incredibly sweet, attentive, and caring, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. She provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was well cared for, comfortable, and happy throughout the stay. She has a natural way with animals and made the entire experience stress-free for both us and our pup. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, trustworthy, and loving environment for their dog.”

“Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!”

“Jordyn is the best! She watched our dog for about a week and she was so great! Our dog can be very particular, but Jordyn met all of his needs! Her communication was great too, we received photos and updates each day!”

“Danita and her family were amazing with our dog Finley. She updated us frequently and sent photos of our dog settling in and getting comfortable. I knew our dog was in good hands, was well taken care of, and got plenty of walks and belly rubs. I would 100% recommend Danita to care for your dog!”

“Pooja was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From the very beginning, I was impressed by how thorough she was during our meet and greet. She asked all the right questions about Bentley's routine, personality, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special needs, which immediately gave me confidence that she truly cares about the dogs she watches. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated, communicated well, and sent photos that helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. Bentley can be energetic and very attached to his people, but Pooja was patient, attentive, and loving with him. It was clear that she took the time to make him feel comfortable and treated him like one of her own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pup is the best feeling, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Pooja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs!”


“Bronwyn was an excellent sitter. She treated my dog, Dash, like her own family. She updated me with pictures and captions all day so I could see how much fun he was having. I could relax and enjoy what I was doing because I knew he was in such good hands. I highly recommend her services and will definitely re-book with her.”
“George watched our dog over Thanksgiving. He was very responsive leading up to and during the stay. He sent us pictures of her during having a great time. He took her on lots of walks and she seemed well cared for. When we picked her up she was so happy and pumped in a way she typically only is after she has had lots of fun. Will definitely use again and would recommend!”

“Amy and Cathy took our two dogs in for two weeks while we were in Japan. It's clear that they're both avid dog lovers, so I had no worries while away because I knew the pups were in great hands! They texted a few updates and pictures as well. We could tell our dogs were having a good time with good people. I would absolutely recommend Amy and Cathy!”

“Juliana and her family embraced Aiden like one of their own. He was surrounded by love, constant attention, and she went above and beyond to make us feel secure and kept him safe. She kept in constant contact throughout the day with photo updates as well. I will work with Juliana EVERY single time as there is no one better who will value and love your pup as much she does!”

“I recently had the pleasure of boarding my Goldendoodle, Bruno, with Joseph for several days, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and attention he provided. From the moment I dropped Bruno off, Joseph's dedication to ensuring Bruno's comfort and happiness was evident. Throughout Bruno's stay, Joseph sent me multiple daily updates, including photos and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. It was clear that Joseph wasn't just looking after Bruno, but genuinely enjoying his company and providing him with the love and attention that he needed. Bruno seemed to be having a wonderful time, and I was delighted to see him so content in the updates I received. What particularly stood out to me was Joseph's flexibility and willingness to accommodate a last-minute extension to Bruno's stay. Despite the unexpected change in plans, Joseph was incredibly understanding and made the process seamless, which I greatly appreciated. Upon picking Bruno up, it was evident that he had been well-cared for and had formed a genuine bond with Joseph. Bruno was happy, healthy, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time. I cannot recommend Joseph highly enough for anyone seeking a caring and responsible individual to look after their furry family members. His genuine love for animals and his commitment to providing the best possible care make him an exceptional choice for pet boarding. I will undoubtedly be entrusting Joseph with Bruno's care in the future, knowing that he will be in excellent hands.”

“Meredith took great care of our dog Taco! He enjoyed his stay with her. He liked being out in the yard and all the pets and snuggles he was given. She took him on walks, spent time with him and was able to give his meds in his pill pockets. We would use her again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Brandywine

“Cassandra was so sweet and patient with our girl! The kitty was feeling really shy but Cassandra was really gentle and understanding with her and put our mind at ease when we had to leave town for a few days on short notice. Would definitely book again!!”


“Jennifer is like the relative you ask to take care of your pet. She was as good for me as she was for my 2 cats. A very gentle demeanor that one of my shy cats felt safe enough to approach. Knowledgeable and responsive to me that I was confident in being away and knowing my cats were well cared for.”


“Megan was wonderful! She gave my super senior boy extra attention and helped him deal with his first alone time since losing his companion of 16 years. Will definitely be rebooking with her!”


“This was our second time booking with Emily and she is amazing!! Our cats lover her, and even our very shy cat comes out to visit and play when she stops by. Emily is very communicative and sends us great updates and pictures. We are so lucky to have her and know our girls are in great hands when we’re away!”


“Patti has wonderful compassion and attention to detail that lets me know my animals are well cared for and happy while I am away. The photos of my pets are always thoughtful and I look forward to her notes and pictures when I'm gone. Responsive, professional and responsible; would recommend to anyone.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth! Came two days in a row with only a one-day notice. She came right on time and took great care of Bogey both days. Communication was great, she sent cute pictures/updates, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!”


“Maya was great with our 2 dogs. She was reliable and on time for every visit. We were away for a long weekend and were very busy. Her check ins and pictures of the dogs she sent showed me they were good and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely ask her again.”


“Lily was so responsible and sweet with our dogs. We couldn't have left our precious pups in better hands and she was so conscientious in feeding them, walking them, taking photos, and even administering medication. We were so reassured by her responsible and thoughtful updates and hope that even more people will get to experience her wonderful service in future!”


“Linda was beyond fantastic. Not only was she such a kindhearted person, but she truly loves animals through and through. For my first service, I know it won’t be my last!”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover from Wilmington, Delaware, and after retiring from 34 years in education, I decided to follow my heart and spend more time with animals. I've had all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, even horses—so I know just how much they mean to us. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, kind, and caring looking after your pets (and your home) when you can’t be there. Whether it's a walk around the block, playtime in the yard, or just some company while you're away, I'm here to make sure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved. I am retired after 34 years in education and have a flexible schedule that can meet your pets daily needs- morning, noon or night. Additionally, I have lived in the area my entire life so I am very familiar with the neighborhoods. I will visit your pets as requested. They will be walked responsibly and I will ensure they have fresh water and treats if allowed. If requested I will bring in the mail and any delivered packages.

“I had a fantastic experience with Amanda, she was prompt, professional, and attentive to my Maytag for the week I was away. I would absolutely book her again for my next trip!”


“Highly recommend!! Colleen was attentive to my cat going the extra mile to make sure she was happy and very we cared for. I can’t imagine leaving my cat or any other pet in better hands!”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Lady! We could tell by the pictures provided that she had a great time playing in the backyard and she looks forward to hanging out with you again soon!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Brandywine

“Dante was an amazing caretaker! I received photo updates throughout her stay as she got to enjoy playing with his lil Frenchie. I received a lovely report upon pickup too, as she was smiling away!! She loved playing with tennis balls AND she didn’t tear up one of them!! THAT IS A MIRACLE!! My tennis balls have never survived a Belinda! Once Belinda and I arrived home, she went straight to sleep and snoozed all night. She had a GREAT day! Thank you so much, Dante, for your flexibility and for taking great care of my best girl!!”
“Joseph is awesome! He's very patient with my dogter Penni.. She's still a young puppy and I feel at ease when she's in uncle Joe's care. I also love the social skills she gets, while there, with her friends (the other dogs).. Coming from someone who's cautious, I would 100% recommend Joseph to also care for your fur babies!! 😊”

“Danita’s family were very kind and loving to our dogs. We had a last minute need for care and they were very quick to respond and agree to care for our dogs. I highly recommend them!”

“Super friendly and caring! Weiyu kept me updated about shiloh throughout the day. Took him out multiple times and showered him with love and hugs. He was very happy when i picked him up. Will definitely be bringing him back.”

“Cindy was an amazing sitter! My dog had a sore paw when I dropped her off, and she took such great care of her. It was clear my dog was comfortable and well looked after. When I picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. I’m really grateful for Cindy's care and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting services!”

About: I got my first dog when I was 18 years old. She was the sweetest pup I have ever met! Since then dogs have become an irreplaceable part of my life. I have cared for puppies, senior dogs & few dogs with behavioral needs. I have fostered dogs through the years and learnt how meaningful this experience can be. My last foster was a young adult who was a year old. Open to pets all day subjected to advance notice/short notice. I'm mostly home so I can be flexible with your routine and needs. A small heads up is always appreciated. I live in an apartment complex which is 5 mins away from 2 dog parks. I'll take your dog for daily exercise and morning, afternoon and evening. I live in a neighborhood which has lots of space to walk for regular/short walks. I have a 7 year old mild tempered female dog who will provide excellent care and comfort while you are away. I can easily crate your dog if needed, I have a large crate.
“Cathy and Amy were wonderful and took great care of our Doggo! They are super friendly and create and joyful environment for the visiting dogs. As soon as I heard my dog was relaxed in the dog bed outside the bedroom and the kitchen I knew we found great sitters for our dog:)”


About: I’m a devout animal lover with two dogs of my own and one cat. Caring for animals is truly one of my favorite joys in life! My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home when they’re in my care. My senior dog recently passed from a rare lung cancer so I’m experienced in delivering oral medication, round the clock care and attention, and moving at their pace. Your baby will be well taken care of. I work remote so I am able to give your dog lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog will be able to take potty breaks every two hours in the fenced-in yard and spend time outside. We typically go for walks in the early morning and late evening. My Rover calendar is updated daily so that I can support any urgent needs, when available. Boarding & Daycare: My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home! I only board one dog at a time so that I can give them adequate, individualized attention all throughout the day. You will not find a sitter in Wilmington that is as attentive as I am. My pets are kept separate during boarding. Your dog will have access to the entire first floor and the fenced in-backyard. I have a dedicated bedroom for boarding where I can sleep with dogs who may have separation anxiety to ensure they are comfortable. Drop-in visits & Walks: I‘ll take my time getting to know your dog and make sure they’re comfortable with me being there. I like to sit with them for a few minutes before and after each walk to feel out their energy levels. On walks, I recognize that this is their social time so I go at their pace and let them get plenty of sniff time. I am very respectful of your home and will follow your instructions closely.
About: I’ve had rescue dogs since I was a child. I get a lot of joy out of fostering dogs and helping them find their furever home. I also grew up with cats and love a sassy attitude. Looking to soak up some good pet energy this summer! I’m not working this summer, so I’m home all day and ready to entertain your pet. I love taking walks so your dog will get at least two walks per day. I spend a lot of time in the pool, so your pet can enjoy the yard as much as they want. Enrichment toys, watching birds and squirrels, naps in the sun, the occasional pup cup, games of fetch, and zoomies galore. I have a big, fenced in yard. I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s what they prefer. Willing to accommodate. Will reward with Puperoni!

“Bronwen has been our go to sitter and we feel so comfortable having Griffin stay with her, she become like a second mom to him. She has gone above and beyond so many times and we are very lucky to have found her. Griffin can barely contain his excitement and basically tries to jump out of the car window every time we pull up to her house!”

About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have a cat named Pumpkin and a guinea pig named Cozy, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.
“I can not say enough about how wonderful Cecilia was in taking care of my 2 Aussie pups. We were in town for 2 days visiting friends and having her and her husband to take care of our children allowed us to relax and enjoy our stay. She even offered to keep them till 8pm and deliver them to us. Both our babies us came home happy and exhausted. Cecilia is so passionate about caring for furbabies. I especially loved how she could read their body language and make quick adjustments to how she introduced them to her home. You could tell that their comfort level was more important than just moving from point A to point B. Thank you Cecilia for being you!”

“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”

“Alex is awesome and we're lucky to have found her! She has excellent communication, was great with our dog, and had perfect availability for us. Even from the first time meeting Zoey, she seemed much more involved and responsible than most of the other dog walkers we've used. She was super patient with our dog even when she was jumping a bit, and she came right on time as we has requested. We will absolutely use her again!”

“Alana was fantastic. She helped us out on short notice around the holidays and she was amazing with our dog and cat. She was super friendly and accommodating, and our pets took to her right away. We definitely recommend her.”


“Dante was wonderful and calm as could be with our dogs when he met them for their first walk. He was attentive and gave off very professional vibes. We have him booked for 10 days in the coming week and we're excited to have chosen him to be our dog walker! Thank you, Dante!”


About: Dependable dog sitter. Love all types of dogs. Our dog is part of the family and yours will be too! Lexi is our 5 year old Labradoodle and she very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! My kids are grown so I have more time on my hands. We have never had to put Lexi in a kennel thanks to family and friends and want to help make sure other dogs can stay at home too! Looking to make dogs feel safe and happy is my goal. I love to take dogs on long walks and play ball with them. We have a large yard and lots of dog toys! Have helped dogs with invisible fence training and learning not to pull when on walks.
“Maya was amazing! I needed last minute help with my five year old pup. She communicated daily how each walk went with photos and descriptions! She was so patient with my father who was at the house as well. Couldn’t recommend Maya enough! Max is looking forward to her next visit soon!!!”

“Lashae was the best Rover experience we have had. She was amazing with our dogs and our neighbors (who had tons of positive comments). The best part of working with Lashae was the improvement in our dogs’ health! They have more energy and walk farther!! Lashae is the best! Can’t wait to work with her again!”

About: My love for animals of all kinds began in 6th grade and has only become more expansive as I have continued to care for the pets of my friends and neighbors.

About: My personal experience has consisted of hands-on settings caring for dogs through pet sitting, volunteering at an animal shelter, and helping raise and train my own dog from puppyhood. At the shelter, I regularly cared for and walked both dogs and cats, gaining knowledge and experience with a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I’ve also sat alongside a professional trainer with my own dog, watching taught me how to set appropriate boundaries, understand behavior, and use patience and consistency. In addition to basic training, I’ve taught fun commands like “roll over” and “paw.” Overall, I’m confident handling dogs with different personalities and needs. I prioritize being both patient and attentive while maintaining structure and safety. Your pet will be treated like family!

About: I have had my Siberian Husky American Foxhound since 2019! She is my entire world and is like my child. I love getting to take care of her when I am not teaching little ones at school! I love dogs and everyone in my life has dogs. This includes another American Foxhound mix, a Pitbull mix, and a Labordoodle which I spend extended time with each. I would love to get a chance to walk your fur baby and take great care of them! I am currently done the school year and have my days open for summer break! I am hoping to fill that time with walking some adorable dogs! I live in an apartment so I take my dog on at least 2 walks a day. We often take her in the car to different places such as the beach. I am understanding that everyone has a different routine for their dog and that it is important for the dog and family to stay on that routine! The more information I am given about your dog the better care I am able to give them.
“Jordan is amazing! She walks our puppy Reese while we are at work a couple times a week. She responds quickly and gives us great updates. Reese loves seeing her walk through the door! I would highly recommended her and we will continue to use her 🥰🥰 thank you for everything you do for us! It means the world!!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more happy. We typically take Dory with us on all our trips but we’re restricted due to time constraints and events held out of state. We were initially nervous to leave Dory overnight and have her stay with someone but she absolutely loved her stay with Patti, Oliver, and especially Beulah. Loved the picture and video updates and Patti was so responsive to our inquiries this nervous dog mom. Dory loved her time at Patti’s so much that we booked two more stays. Thank you Beulah for playing so much with Dory!”

“We have left Cooper with Andres several times now, and he has been very pleasant and accommodating from the first interaction. He sends picture updates throughout the stay, and is always sure to provide a "debrief" of the stay when we pick him up. Its very comforting knowing that if there is even the smallest thing, slightly out of the ordinary, Andres will pick up on it, and keep us informed. Cooper always seems to have a great time; whether it be running around with Lumpkin or any other dogs being boarded at the same time. We have been nothing short of pleased, and will continue taking Cooper to Andres. If you're looking for peace-of-mind boarding, look no further. Andres is top notch.”

“Thank you for taking such good care of our Woody! He loves staying with you, (we can tell from how excited he gets when we drop off & from the videos you share) and we appreciate the love attention you give him to help him feel comfortable in your home.”


“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”

“Bernice came home a happy and tired pup after a week with Brian and his family! We received pictures and updates throughout the week, letting us know she was safe and happy, and definitely in her glory with her new pup friends! We’ll definitely be using Brian again!”

“This was our first time boarding our dog, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Chyann was incredibly sweet, attentive, and caring, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. She provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was well cared for, comfortable, and happy throughout the stay. She has a natural way with animals and made the entire experience stress-free for both us and our pup. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, trustworthy, and loving environment for their dog.”

“Jordyn is the best! She watched our dog for about a week and she was so great! Our dog can be very particular, but Jordyn met all of his needs! Her communication was great too, we received photos and updates each day!”

“George watched our dog over Thanksgiving. He was very responsive leading up to and during the stay. He sent us pictures of her during having a great time. He took her on lots of walks and she seemed well cared for. When we picked her up she was so happy and pumped in a way she typically only is after she has had lots of fun. Will definitely use again and would recommend!”

“I recently had the pleasure of boarding my Goldendoodle, Bruno, with Joseph for several days, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and attention he provided. From the moment I dropped Bruno off, Joseph's dedication to ensuring Bruno's comfort and happiness was evident. Throughout Bruno's stay, Joseph sent me multiple daily updates, including photos and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. It was clear that Joseph wasn't just looking after Bruno, but genuinely enjoying his company and providing him with the love and attention that he needed. Bruno seemed to be having a wonderful time, and I was delighted to see him so content in the updates I received. What particularly stood out to me was Joseph's flexibility and willingness to accommodate a last-minute extension to Bruno's stay. Despite the unexpected change in plans, Joseph was incredibly understanding and made the process seamless, which I greatly appreciated. Upon picking Bruno up, it was evident that he had been well-cared for and had formed a genuine bond with Joseph. Bruno was happy, healthy, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time. I cannot recommend Joseph highly enough for anyone seeking a caring and responsible individual to look after their furry family members. His genuine love for animals and his commitment to providing the best possible care make him an exceptional choice for pet boarding. I will undoubtedly be entrusting Joseph with Bruno's care in the future, knowing that he will be in excellent hands.”

“Needed a sitter last minute for my Saint Bernard Charlie for the week. Steffani and Josh were able to watch him with little notice. Within in the first couple minutes of meeting them during the meet and greet , I was very comfortable leaving Charlie with them. You can tell they genuinely care for animals. And Charlie was just as comfortable around them as well. All week they sent me videos and pictures and kept me updated. I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew he was in good hands. They treated him like he was their own. They will be my go to sitters for any future needs and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”

“When I first met Laura, I was impressed by how she handled my fearful and sometimes reactive dog. Her calm and confident demeanor and her caring attitude quickly won over Calvin. Within minutes of meeting Laura and her dog, Wally, Calvin was literally eating out of her hands. Laura not only gave me peace of mind during my vacation by sending me photos of Calvin and keeping me updated, but she also made Calvin feel safe and part of her family. I will definitely use Laura's services again!”

“Nick was an amazing sitter for my dog. My dog is a senior and he made me feel comfortable leaving her in his care. He sent me picture updates throughout the day. It helped me feel at ease that she was adjusting and having a great time. I knew she was was in great hands. I would use Nick again!”

“Ami and James are the best. They love our dog like their own. Ami is always sending us pictures and is an excellent communicator. We don’t worry at all when our dog is staying with Ami and James. I highly recommend them!”

“Our pup is always calm and happy after staying with David. He really offers an amazing space for us to board our VERY anxious dog when we travel. I am so thankful for him.”

“This was the first time my dogs stayed with a non family member so I was a littler nervous to leave them. Enrica took EXCELLENT care of my two Yorkies! She sent me updates and photos the entire time I was away which I absolutely loved. My dogs had so much fun with Enrica that the one had no interest in coming home, he just sat on her couch and looked at me. There was a nice fenced in yard to explore and it was clear they were spoiled. I would definitely send my dogs to stay with Enrica again! Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies!”

About: I have a house where I can provide individual or group care for dogs. I co-own a dog named French Fry, who has been a significant part of my training experience. I am available for boarding on weekends, starting Saturday morning and continuing until either Monday or Tuesday evening. Additionally, I have availability during certain holiday periods. I have a partially fenced-in yard and a metal crate available for dogs if needed. I follow any instructions that pet owners provide. I have a peace and calm environment for dog care.
“Nicollete, saved us when we last minute needed someone to care for our dog. She was super responsive at all times. She sent the cutest pics while we were away. Our family had a great vacation knowing Nicollete was taking such good care of our dog. She is awesome.”
