“Ms. Teresa is a Super Sweet Lady. My dog is about 7 years old and very dominant and loves to mark his territory. She handled him accordingly and with care. He stayed 3 nights and she updated me while I was away. I really love that she had a cage for him already so I didn’t have to pack his around. I would drop him off again.”
“We left Meadow - our 6 month old rescue - with Brooke for two weeks. Brooke was reliable, clearly skilled with all sorts of dogs, and was a great friend to meadow during our summer vacation. The supervised exposure to other dogs under Brooke’s care was really great for Meadow’s social skills too! Endorse without reservation and will use Brooke again for sure next time we are in area.”
“Ellie had the best stay and did not want to leave! Michele provided exceptional care, did a fantastic job communicating and sent adorable picture updates. We felt like she was staying with a close family friend.”

“I’m very happy with the care provided by Megan. She’s very much in tune with dog personalities and likes/dislikes. She has a young daughter who is also in tune with dogs and is a good playmate. Megan was flexible and responsive with communications, sending pictures. I’d be very comfortable asking for help again in the future.”
“Jen immediately put us at ease. Her positive energy and love of dogs came through at our very first meeting. She regularly sent us notes and pics of our dogs, which we really appreciated. Thank you Jen! We will definitely call again if we need a sitter!!”
“My 2 girls were so happy with Sandee, i could not have asked for better care of my two spoilt pups! I am very grateful to Sandee for taking my girls for the afternoon, which freed us up to do the necessary things related to purchasing a home. I won't hesitate to go back to Sandee and trust her with my precious fur babies. Thank you Sandee!!!!”
““I can’t thank Olinda enough for the amazing care she gave Ollie! From the moment we arrived, I could tell how excited and happy he was to be around her. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine love for dogs shine through. It’s such a relief to know Ollie was in such good hands.”
“Zackie was very good with our dog. It was a blessing that we found her and to be so close. She always provided updates with photos and Chanel looked very happy. I love how she gets plenty of exercise with her too. Thank you and we will definitely see you again!”
“10/10 recommend booking Yinali to care for your dog! She was such a joy to work with, from our initial communication on Rover, to the meet-and-greet, to all the thoughtful updates while our dog was staying with her and her husband. Our dog has special needs and uses a wheelchair, which can understandably make some sitters hesitant (and makes it hard for us to find him trustworthy care), but Yinali was incredibly accommodating and attentive to his needs. I knew right away that he was in great hands, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would 100% book with Yinali again!”
“Stephanie was awesome with our dogs! It was a last minute booking and she was accommodating with their different needs and energy levels. Stephanie sent pictures and was very communicative - I would definitely use her again!”
“jermaine was AWESOME especially me being last minute with my request. As fast as the world is moving and advancing going on an app and having someone dog sit your dog i was so skeptical! but jermaine was responsive to all my text and calls and ensured me with photos that my boy was ok which was a huge relief . Most definitely will be using jermaine again. !!”
“Jilesa is simply awesome. I love her little farmette and all her animals. Shorty is a very active dog and meeting the different animals certainly kept him entertained. She had given him a bath, ( he is part Shih Tzu and has white curly hair), and trimmed his nails before I picked him up and he looks like a big fluffy snowball! He came home and took a long nap which is unusual for him so I know he was a busy little man. Don’t hesitate to engage Jilesa; she and her husband are definitely animal lovers and will take good care of your pet. 10 out of 10 stars!!”

“Alyssa, Bruce (her dog) and her home was a perfect match for our 2 dogs, Lola (4 yr old 55 lb) and Tucker (2 yr old 25 lb recently adopted). The combination of Alyssa's genuine caring, responsible, dog loving, positive and communicative personality, along with Bruce as a playmate, and her dog friendly home with large fenced yard, Lola and Tucker were comfortable, happy and entertained. We felt confident our dogs were in a good hands. We used her for 5 nights and would use her services again as well as recommend her. We drove 50 min for her services and felt worth the distance.”

“My cat Blue is a 18 pound scaredy cat. Heather did all she could do to get Blue to come out of hiding. The first day she did take a picture of him behind the couch. After that he could not be found. Heather fed him, gave him fresh water every day and cleaned his litter box. Heather did a great job caring for Blue.”
“Elizabeth was great helping out with our kitties. She fed them and helped with the cat boxes and played with our goofball. She even went above and beyond and helped me with our plants. We felt like our cats were in good hands while we were away!”
About: I have both worked and shadowed at multiple veterinary clinics over the past two years, where I have cared for many cats and their various needs. I also have two cats at home that I feed and play with, along with cleaning their litter boxes.
“We could not have been more satisfied with Luie! He went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable leaving our cat for two weeks. Bronco had some health issues within days of us leaving and Luie stepped up without hesitation. Sending us photos and coordinating with family for medicine from the vet. He sent us photos and updates everyday. When we returned home our house and cat were in perfect order. We will always try to book Luie when we need a pet/house sitter!”
About: I’m comfortable caring for cats with all kinds of personalities, from social and affectionate to shy and independent. I understand that cats often need time and space to feel comfortable, so I always let them approach at their own pace. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection when they want it. I’ll also follow your cat’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.
“We have used Chrissy numerous times and each time we are so so so pleased! She takes such good care of our cat when we are out of town. She is so sweet and we would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone! You won’t regret it!”
“Rachel was excellent, followed all directions and got along great with my cats! It had been a while since using a pet sitter; we were somewhat anxious as now one of my cats requires an inhaler. But everything went great and I would definitely book Rachel again!”
About: I've taken care of children and pets for about 7 years now. I have my own pets, a dog and a cat. Shepard mix named Milo, and a cat named Judah. I look forward to all the pets! I'm currently working four days a week and have plenty of time to spend loving and caring for your precious babies! I really love it! In my clients home, I follow detailed, and not so detailed instructions well. I have a natural instinct for what is needed and what is not needed. I like to follow the desires of the owner.
“Samantha was wonderful. The daily updates were really fun to look at for our two cats and she was always on time. We have a cat with diabetes and who needs insulin and meds and Samantha was great at taking care of her.”
“Sabrina was wonderful! We had to make a very last minute request to feed our kitties and Sabrina came to the rescue. Our senior kitty is very shy and often won't come out or even eat for people she's not familiar with, but she did for Sabrina! We were also provided with numerous photos, updates, and a very detailed write up of the visit. We will certainly be reaching out when we need services in the future!”
About: Over the past several months, I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions. Every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience administering medications to senior dogs and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully and consistently. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. When I house sit, I also take great pride in caring for your home. I always aim to leave it cleaner than I found it, so you can come home to happy pets and a tidy, well-cared-for space. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing both your furry family members and your home are in caring, reliable hands. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week as well as house sit for as long as you need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.
“Wonderful experience. My dogs loved Kara and she dod the best job caring for them while we were away. Overall a lovely animal lover amd we would be thrilled to work with in the future! Highly recommend!!!”
“Kelsey did a fine job for us. Dogs liked her and they got their daily walk in. This was our second time working with her. We’d request her again but our schedules aren’t working out this time.”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my teen to adult years. I volunteered at a rescue taking care of mostly the cats. I’ve previously helped rescue kittens and dogs. I’ve always had animals around me. I’m a very big animal lover. I currently have 2 cats and 2 dogs and cat sit a kitten from time to time. I give the cats baths maybe once a month and the dogs weekly and I routinely walk the dogs. I watch the dogs while they’re outside while also giving them extra love. I love taking dogs on walks. I play with cats and even bring along toys that I know my cats love.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid. The least I can do is give back to the animals that help us the most in times of need. Be their relief and protect as they do with us. My schedule is pretty flexible! I make time for the fur babies! Maintaining a close eye on the fur baby to make sure they are okay and don’t need anything at the moment. Always making sure the animal is being taken care of, is my first priority. Especially senior dogs that require more care and attention, the better for me because patience is one of the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22). I take care of my dog daily. I take her on walks/runs to make sure she and I get some exercise and it helps with our zoomies HAHA :) I always make sure doors are locked and they are always within eyesight view whenever I have my hands full with the fur babies to prevent a sneak escape. Leash is always on before going out in public. Making sure all human food is away from pet to prevent toxin ingestion.
“Taylor and Michael were awesome with our cat! I would highly recommend them to anyone needing pet sitting services. They met with us beforehand and asked all the right questions to make sure they knew Roxy’s routine. While we were gone, we got daily updates and pictures. They played with her favorite toys and took her out on our screened in porch, which is her favorite place to be! Knowing Taylor and Michael were taking such good care of our cat allowed us to truly relax on vacation! We will definitely use them again in the future.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for over 25 years. I grew up in a home full of pets and can’t remember a time without them. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and even a lizard. As an adult, I’ve chosen to adopt rescue dogs and guinea pigs because helping animals has always been important to me. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time so I have the time to care of your pets and take care of all their needs. My availability is flexible most days. I can do whatever you prefer for your pets in your home. Whatever their routine is, how you like things to be done to keep them feeling safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and got my first dog at 10 years old. Caring for him taught me responsibility, patience, and the deep bond we share with our pets. I have over 8 years of experience caring for senior dogs and 5+ years providing dog sitting services for private clients. Many families trust me repeatedly with their pets because I treat every dog as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs — from playful pups who love walks and attention to more relaxed dogs who just want companionship and cuddles. Small and medium dogs have mostly been under my care and only some larger breeds. My goal is always to keep your dog happy, safe, and stress-free while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand how important consistency is, especially for senior dogs. I’m reliable, attentive, and communicative, and I know peace of mind matters when you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, overnight care, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help. Creating a calm, loving environment is very important to me, and I want both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home on my own time so I am available pretty much daily unless I have other clients in my schedule. Requests in advance are very much appreciated. Services in your home will be as the you request, I aim to please you and your pet! I live in a tiny home that shares the fenced in backyard with my in laws who have an older toy poodle, a Chorkie and a calico cat who I will keep separate from your pet if you’re looking for daycare and overnight stays. My home is small so overnight and day cares are limited for very large dogs.

I will absolutely use her services again the next time we are in town. Thank you Olinda! You were great!”

About: I have over 20 year experience owning, showing and competing dogs for clients as well as my own. I have titled/finished dogs in conformation shows and agility and currently own working German shepherds that are trained for personal protection. I have worked with animals my entire life from dogs to horses and everything in between, I’ve worked for many boarding/ doggie daycare facilities and worked as a hospital tech at animal hospitals. I am extremely confident working with any breed or temperament! I currently own and manage a small farm raising sheep, goats and cows which gives me a lot of free time I’m looking to fill.

We have a fenced in property and supervise your pups at all time wether they are inside or outside. We can also crate them as needed/requested by owners!
About: For me, pet care has never been just a job—it's been a lifelong passion. I was raised in a family of professional trainers and boarders, where I learned from an early age how to properly care for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. We also spent countless hours working alongside local shelters, helping dogs build confidence and prepare for their forever homes. Professionally, I have over 20 years of experience working in boarding, training assistance, behavioral rehabilitation, and pet care. In 2012, I began my career as a professional dog groomer and later became certified to groom both dogs and cats. In 2020, I became certified to train new groomers as they worked toward their professional certifications. Today, I combine all of that experience to provide a calm, loving, and individualized experience for every pet in my care. My Specialties I specialize in creating fear-free, low-stress experiences built on patience, trust, and compassion. Some of my areas of expertise include: • Fear-free handling and grooming • Trauma rehabilitation grooming for pets who cannot safely visit traditional salons due to fear, anxiety, or behavioral concerns • Senior pet care • Puppy care and socialization • Pets with medical or mobility challenges • Basic training and reinforcement of good manners • Administering medications while carefully monitoring for symptoms or side effects One of my greatest passions is helping fearful dogs learn that grooming and handling don't have to be scary. Rather than forcing pets through services, I work at their pace, building trust over time with the goal of helping them become comfortable and confident again. Many of my clients come to me after being turned away from traditional grooming salons due to behavioral or medical concerns. What Your Pet Can Expect I strive to make every stay feel like a vacation with family rather than simply boarding. Your pet may enjoy: • Daily walks (typically 2-4 per day, while following your normal routine whenever possible) • Plenty of one-on-one attention and affection • Playtime, enrichment, and exercise • Trips to the dog park (with your permission and only if appropriate for your pet) • Picture, video, and message updates throughout their stay • A calm, loving home environment where they are treated like family One unique tradition many pets come to love is bedtime story time. It may sound unusual, but quietly reading aloud has helped many anxious dogs relax before bed. I've even seen it help dogs experiencing storm anxiety or fear of loud noises settle more comfortably. Routine is incredibly important to me. If your pet has a specific schedule, feeding routine, medication plan, or bedtime ritual, I'll do everything possible to maintain it while they're in my care. Because of my experience working with behavioral and medical cases, I also pay close attention to subtle changes in your pet's behavior, mobility, appetite, and overall well-being. If I notice anything concerning, I'll communicate with you immediately and act quickly in your pet's best interest. Communication & Grooming I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet care. The more I know about your pet's personality, routines, preferences, and medical history, the better experience I can provide. In return, you'll receive detailed updates about how they're doing, including behavior, activities, and anything I notice that may be helpful for you to know. During boarding or daycare stays, I'm also happy to reinforce basic training and offer guidance on grooming maintenance, body language, and behavioral changes that may strengthen your bond with your pet at home. Professional grooming services are available for pets staying in my care. Grooming recommendations, pricing, and service completion depend on your pet's size, coat condition, medical needs, and stress level. My philosophy is simple: I will never force a pet through a service. Their comfort, trust, and emotional well-being always come first. Booking Information To help protect my home while still providing every pet with the highest level of care, the estimated price for boarding and daycare includes a refundable cleaning/security fee. This fee is fully refunded after your pet's stay provided there is no excessive damage or extraordinary cleaning required beyond normal pet messes. I believe this allows me to continue offering a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every guest while being fair to both pet parents and my home. My goal is simple: every pet should leave my care feeling safe, loved, understood, and excited to come back. I am generally home all day. I do work as a groomer for pets that are unable to got to salons, but I do this from home as well. So your pets will have round the clock love and care. You will need to provide any food and specific treats if your pet has a favorite or dietary restrictions/allergies. Pets are family. I will personally take them for walks throughout the day for fresh air and exercise, play with them and ensure they feel comfortable and lived while you are away. I do offer creating services, however, depending on the size of your dog, you may have to supply the crate. You pet will always be treated like family, but the details of their routine and activities will depend on your instructions. I respect that different lifestyles require different things (i.e crating vs free roam, scheduled feeding vs grazing, scheduled walks/potty breaks vs whenever they want to go out, etc.) and will maintain that sense of normalcy as much as possible. If you opt for grooming, and I am able to comfortably groom your dog, grooming will take place 1-2 days before your return. That way they have time to decompress after, and if they are stressed for parts, it gives leeway to do little bits over time.
“Deanna was amazing with our dog Bailey!! Bailey even need alittle extra care since he was just a few days out from being neutered. Deanna definitely cared for him like he was her own and gave me plently of updates. I was able to be away and not worry about my pup at all since he was in such good hands! I highly recommend Deanna and we will be using her again in the future!”

About: I have worked and shadowed at three veterinary clinics over the past three years, where I have cared for many dogs and cats, along with their numerous needs. I also have a dog and two cats at home that I take on walks, feed daily, and play with. I am currently shadowing two veterinary practices part-time, where I have improved my animal caregiving skills. I am available the majority of the week to provide pet care for others, as can be seen on my calendar. I have very good time management skills and I will always put your pet’s care as my first priority. I will make sure to follow any and all instructions given to me for caring for your pet, and I will be very respectful of your home in the process.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my teen to adult years. I volunteered at a rescue taking care of mostly the cats. I’ve previously helped rescue kittens and dogs. I’ve always had animals around me. I’m a very big animal lover. I currently have 2 cats and 2 dogs and cat sit a kitten from time to time. I give the cats baths maybe once a month and the dogs weekly and I routinely walk the dogs. I watch the dogs while they’re outside while also giving them extra love. I love taking dogs on walks. I play with cats and even bring along toys that I know my cats love.
About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them part of the family. Until last year, I cared for my own dog, Tank, who passed away at 14. Caring for him through his senior years taught me the value of patience, close observation, and keeping a pet’s routine as comfortable and consistent as possible. Tank occasionally had seizures, which gave me firsthand experience remaining calm, reducing stimulation, helping keep a dog safe from injury, and closely monitoring them while following an owner’s or veterinarian’s instructions. I understand that every pet has their own needs, personality, routines, and comfort level. I’ve also dog sat for family members and truly enjoy making sure their pets receive dependable care, affection, exercise, and companionship while they are away. I’m detail-oriented and will follow your instructions closely. Feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and house rules to favorite toys, training cues, and any special needs, your pet will feel safe, loved, and cared for in your absence. I work part-time as a caregiver for a person with a disability, a role that has strengthened my patience, reliability, and attention to individual routines and needs. Because my schedule is flexible, I can accommodate a wide range of pet-care routines, visit times, and scheduling needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I focus on keeping their routine safe, comfortable, and as familiar as possible. At my home, I have a yard available for regular bathroom breaks and a small park nearby for daily walks, exercise, and fresh air. I do not have any pets living with me full-time. From time to time, I care for my mother’s friendly French Bulldog, Vinny, who enjoys being around other dogs. I will always communicate in advance if another dog may be present and will make sure introductions are handled slowly, safely, and according to your pet’s comfort level. In a client’s home, I will follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, house rules, and any special routines or needs. My goal is to provide dependable, detail-oriented care that helps your pet feel secure and well cared for while you are away.
“Rachel is very professional. Comes in with a smile on her face and Lily is always excited to see her! When she comes back, Lily‘s tongue is hanging out of her mouth and that’s all I need to see to know that Rachel is doing her job and she’s doing it well she communicates any changes ahead of time and it’s a pleasure working with her I will definitely use Rachel again and on a regular basis. Thank you again, Rachel!”
About: I've been working as a veterinary assistant for about 8 years now! Before then, I worked as a pet sitter and a doggie daycare worker! I'm currently in school and working in clinicals, so I no longer get to work full time. I'd love to care for your pets in my free ❤ While pet sitting, I treat pets as of they were my own. Im very detail oriented and want your pet to be as happy and stress-free as possible while you're away, so giving me the more information on their care, the better!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! We’ve had cats and reptiles before as well! I’ve dog sat for the past year now for a family every now and again when they need me! I’ve done it for a whole week or just a night out! Feeding, letting outside, walks, playing and of course some cuddling and pets! House sitting is obviously involved and I am ready for whatever you need me to do around the house while you are gone! I can’t wait to meet you and you’re animal friend! I’m available any weekday anytime around 8am-6pm except on Tuesdays I need to be home by 5pm! Weekends would need a heads up and could only work until 2pm OR could only work at night! I will not be boarding animals at my house! I do not have the facilities for that and also have 3 crazy beagles at home who would not appreciate another animal in the house!
About: I've been assisting in foster care/hospice care for pets since I was a child helping my mother care for multiple pets. I have experience giving medicine if required and can provide bathing and amateur grooming if desired including fur and nail trimming, face cleaning and ear cleaning. I work part time at Starbucks but my work days are usually only 4 hours. I have a roommate and my mother who help me so your pet will never be alone! If you're pet has a schedule I can accommodate that for you! I have a fenced yard, with multiple pets of my own that are fully trained and friendly. I can provide medicine if needed and will offer lots of love to your furry baby!
About: Hello! My name is Teresa! I work full-time on the weekdays but I have weekends free for dog sitting. I have been a dog sitter for a few of my neighbors in the past for fun. Your dog(s) will have a nice house to run around in, we'll take long walks around the neighborhood, going to the Bowers beach, playing in the sand. Since its only me in the house, they will have my undivided attention and love. In the summer, they will be cool, and in the winter, they will be warm by the fireplace. I truly enjoy the company of pets and I look forward to providing you peace of mind and the utmost in care for you and your four legged family members!
About: Over the past several months, I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions. Every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience administering medications to senior dogs and understand the importance of following care instructions carefully and consistently. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. When I house sit, I also take great pride in caring for your home. I always aim to leave it cleaner than I found it, so you can come home to happy pets and a tidy, well-cared-for space. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing both your furry family members and your home are in caring, reliable hands. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week as well as house sit for as long as you need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.

About: I have loved animals all my life, especially dogs, and I finally got a dog of my own two years ago. For years before that, I took care of dogs for friends and through Rover to get my dog fix! I am in my fourth year of med school and spend most of my time at home studying, and take lots of breaks to take my dog on walks and to nearby parks. I have a large fenced backyard where dogs can run! My dogs are very friendly with other dogs, and would love to have your dog as a playmate while you are away! I am in class 2-4 days out of the week, and each of those days am only there for 2-4 hours, so your dog will get lots of attention!

“We left Meadow - our 6 month old rescue - with Brooke for two weeks. Brooke was reliable, clearly skilled with all sorts of dogs, and was a great friend to meadow during our summer vacation. The supervised exposure to other dogs under Brooke’s care was really great for Meadow’s social skills too! Endorse without reservation and will use Brooke again for sure next time we are in area.”

“I’m very happy with the care provided by Megan. She’s very much in tune with dog personalities and likes/dislikes. She has a young daughter who is also in tune with dogs and is a good playmate. Megan was flexible and responsive with communications, sending pictures. I’d be very comfortable asking for help again in the future.”
“Jen immediately put us at ease. Her positive energy and love of dogs came through at our very first meeting. She regularly sent us notes and pics of our dogs, which we really appreciated. Thank you Jen! We will definitely call again if we need a sitter!!”
“Zackie was very good with our dog. It was a blessing that we found her and to be so close. She always provided updates with photos and Chanel looked very happy. I love how she gets plenty of exercise with her too. Thank you and we will definitely see you again!”
“10/10 recommend booking Yinali to care for your dog! She was such a joy to work with, from our initial communication on Rover, to the meet-and-greet, to all the thoughtful updates while our dog was staying with her and her husband. Our dog has special needs and uses a wheelchair, which can understandably make some sitters hesitant (and makes it hard for us to find him trustworthy care), but Yinali was incredibly accommodating and attentive to his needs. I knew right away that he was in great hands, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would 100% book with Yinali again!”
“jermaine was AWESOME especially me being last minute with my request. As fast as the world is moving and advancing going on an app and having someone dog sit your dog i was so skeptical! but jermaine was responsive to all my text and calls and ensured me with photos that my boy was ok which was a huge relief . Most definitely will be using jermaine again. !!”
“Jilesa is simply awesome. I love her little farmette and all her animals. Shorty is a very active dog and meeting the different animals certainly kept him entertained. She had given him a bath, ( he is part Shih Tzu and has white curly hair), and trimmed his nails before I picked him up and he looks like a big fluffy snowball! He came home and took a long nap which is unusual for him so I know he was a busy little man. Don’t hesitate to engage Jilesa; she and her husband are definitely animal lovers and will take good care of your pet. 10 out of 10 stars!!”
“Alyssa, Bruce (her dog) and her home was a perfect match for our 2 dogs, Lola (4 yr old 55 lb) and Tucker (2 yr old 25 lb recently adopted). The combination of Alyssa's genuine caring, responsible, dog loving, positive and communicative personality, along with Bruce as a playmate, and her dog friendly home with large fenced yard, Lola and Tucker were comfortable, happy and entertained. We felt confident our dogs were in a good hands. We used her for 5 nights and would use her services again as well as recommend her. We drove 50 min for her services and felt worth the distance.”
“Kari was an awesome sitter for Brew! She accepted our request at the very last minute (much appreciated) and her family showed him a ton of love while he was there. She’s a great communicator and very caring. Brew came home so tired from all of their adventures. Thank you!”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“My husband and I had a great experience with Brenda watching our dog. Brenda was friendly, accommodating, and always quick to respond. She setup a meeting beforehand to make sure that my dog got along with her 1.5 year old golden retriever and that we were comfortable with where our dog would be staying. We were able to relax and enjoy our night out knowing that Brenda and her children were taking good care of our pup. Her kids even slept in the family room to get to spend more time with him. We loved getting pictures of our dog and knowing that he was being well taken care of. ”
“I really appreciate Kara boarding my pups at the last minute for the holidays. Kara took really good care of my pups. Kara kept me updated with lots of pics to keep me updated with what was going on in their day. The best part they provided transportation to and from my home.”
“Emily took care of our puppy over Christmas while we were on vacation out of the country and we had zero hesitation leaving with our dog in her care. She goes above and beyond and truly has such passion for providing excellent care for animals. Our dog comes home happy and tired from all the fun she has there. We are grateful!”
