“Sylvia was a perfect fit for our dog. Daisy tends to be a little shy but was best friends with Sylvia within an hour.. if that. Sylvia was great at sending me pictures throughout the day of my furbaby. Daisy looked very comfortable and relaxed. When I went to pick her up, Daisy had already claimed Sylvia as her person and did not recognize me for about 15 seconds..which felt like a lifetime. Although I felt alitte jolted..it showed me that my dog really liked Sylvia and that..my friends..is priceless. Thank you once again for becoming my dogs... person.. while we are on vacation.”

“Janice was so wonderful and accommodating, especially with my schedule changes. She sent me pictures and updates to let me know my buddy was doing just fine. I picked up a happy dog and couldn't be more satisfied. I'll definitely be back.”


“Ajax loved her stay with Mary Sue and her Dogs. She has an amazing screened in porch where they play. She also was very nice and since Ajax is a new puppy suggested we put his cage in her room since he had separation anxiety. She even taught him to walk down the stairs! He had a wonderful time and we will definitely be visiting her again when we are in Rehoboth.”

“Michelle was very attentive to our dog Mickey and took him on many walks which they both enjoyed. We loved getting lots of photos of Mickey and, when we picked him up, he was brushed so nicely that he almost looked groomed.”

“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!!!!”

“This was my first time using Lori and I was so impressed. I am so happy I found her for my two babies. After a horrible experience with a local boarding place she eased my fears and treated my dogs like her own . I will definitely use her again it made my trip less stressful. Thank you Lori ❤️”
“Susan and Bob are the greatest!!!! They were great communicators, took wonderful care of my puppy, sent adorable pictures and updates, and I knew my pup was in safe hands and having a fantastic time! I would use them again in a heartbeat!”


“Kelly is awesome! We went to Ocean City to spend some time at the beach and Kelly is just off the main route coming from Northern Virginia. She took great care of our dog for three nights and sent us pictures at the end of each day, totally unexpected. Besides being great with animals she is just a great person. If you are in here area I would recommend giving her your business!!”

About: I am a proud pup and kitty parent. I have been taking care of pets professionally sine 2005. I provide daily dog walking, doggie boarding and kitty pet sitting services in the Milton area. Fabulous references to attest to my quality care. Contact me for a free consult. I look forward to adding you to the Animal Lovers family! I accept dogs that are friendly to all dogs and humans.

“Marvina was absolutely amazing and so accommodating! This was the longest I had left my rescue pup. (1 week) I was nervous for sure, however! That quickly went away as soon as I met her and saw the beautiful “summer camp for dogs ” that is her home! Her property is huge for the pups to run around and play. I had some last minute changes including being later on pick up time due to traffic. I got up to date pictures and reassurance that he was having a great time.

Cat caregivers near you - Marshtown

About: Cat Boarding: Your cat’s comfort and sense of security are my top priorities. I only care for one family of cats at a time, whether that’s one cat or several cats who live together. I do have cats and a dog of my own, but your cats will be kept completely separate from them. Your cats will have their own private bedroom upstairs, where my dog is not allowed, giving them a quiet and comfortable space that is all theirs. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day and am able to give your cats plenty of attention and care. I can administer medication as well. Welcoming both overnight and long-term stays, I will give your cats plenty of individual attention while keeping their routine as familiar as possible. My goal is to provide a safe, peaceful, and comfortable home away from home where your cats can truly relax while you’re away.

“I’m very grateful that Gina was able to pop in last minute to check on Titus when I had to make a quick overnight. She hung out with him, picked up packages off my front porch as well, checked on his food, and gave his litter box a refresh. Extremely satisfied with her careful care for Titus 🤗”
“Siara took excellent care of our cat. He seemed happy and relaxed we when got back which only happens when he hangs out with a sitter he is comfortable with. We will definitely be booking with Siara in the future.”

“Jacob did an outstanding job caring for our rabbit, Bunny, while we were away. He was incredibly communicative, responded quickly to every message, and always arrived on time, staying for the full visit. He had no trouble giving Bunny her medication, sent thoughtful updates and great photos after each visit, and made us feel completely at ease. We also came home to everything spotless and exactly as we had left it, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book Jacob again and will absolutely be asking him to watch Bunny the next time we travel!”

“You are simply the best! Harley looks forward to drop in visits with you! Thank you for always going above and beyond and staying well past your time limit to give her some extra loving!”

“This is the first time I've used Anna. She watched my 18 year old cat while I was out of town for a week. Anna was great. She got the cat to continue to eat while I was gone (he can be picky), gave him his medicine, and watched my house. Her communication was great. She sent me daily updates and pictures. I knew my sweet cat was in good hands. I'll be hiring her again next month. I would highly recommend Anna. "Thanks Anna! Appreciate you!"”

“Absolutely exceeded my expectations. By miles. Flawless care for my babes and excellent communication. I was very comfortable leaving them in Marilyn and Mark's care, and would definitely do it again and again.”

“Christina was prompt and courteous. Lots of pictures so I knew the little ones were doing good. Everything was left immaculate. Will be using her again and can’t recommend her enough.”

“Megan was absolutely fantastic in taking care of our dog Benni!! She was very responsive, provided awesome updates & it was clear to us when we picked Benni up, that he had a wonderful time in her care!! I would highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy & responsive fellow pet lover to care for your fur baby!! She was great from start to finish & we will definitely utilize her in the future trips to the beach. Thanks so much Megan!”

“Jessica is amazing with Fur babies. Very accommodating and professional. My Tug love going there. Its always a great day whenever he spends his day with her. Her dog Tashi is very good with other dogs. Tug's favorite retreat is his stay at Jessica's. Highly recommended 👌”

“This was my first time using Rover and there were a large number of choices. I chose Bob and Susan because of their stated experience and the very positive reviews. I was very happy with the care and attention they paid to PJ for his doggy daycare. They gently introduced him to some other doggy guests of his size and he had a ball and plenty of activity. When I am back in the area, I"ll return here.”

“I cannot say enough great things about Michele! She has given me my life back! I have two little rescues that are highly reactive and do not like anyone, so consequently I have been unable to leave them. After talking with Michele and getting a sense of her experience and patience with rescue.dogs such as mine I decided to give her a try...and it went beautifully! My dogs had a great time with her and loved her...and cannot wait to go back again! Michele is truly not just very much a professional but is gifted with animals as well.”

“So glad to have found Christina to take care of our dog Lucky during our recent trip to the beach. She's warm and friendly and took care of Lucky as if he were her own. She communicated promptly and clearly. She was so flexible with our vacation schedule and sent us adorable pictures of Lucky throughout the day. I'd definitely rebook with Christina, no question.”


“Having just moved here from out-of-state, I was so pleased to get connected with Martha. Pippa was at ease with Martha and I was able to have a few hours to take care of some personal business knowing she was in good hands. I look forward to using Martha's services in the future. You can feel confident leaving your beloved pup in her care.”

“Communication from Marilyn from the get go was great. Mark ended up watching our Berner, Nessie, for the day and things went great. Wonderful family to care for our dog! Will reach out again when visiting my parents at the beach.”

“Liane is AMAZING! I have never used a service like this before and I was so nervous leaving my boy. She was so kind and trustworthy. She sent me pictures of him playing and was so gracious answering my texts. If I could give 10 stars, I would. I can’t thank her enough!”

“We are so grateful for Sherrie and her willingness to help us out last minute! She braved two out of three days walking our dog in the pouring rain, and still managed to make it fun for our rain-disliking girl. Our dog absolutely adored Sherrie from the beginning, which is rare for our dog as she is slightly anxious around new people. Sherrie kept us updated with great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. She is extremely reliable, caring, and clearly an animal lover. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

“My dog is thrilled to be walking with Christina. She is a warm, friendly person, and my dog Is so comfortable with her. After the first walk, Rosie was exhausted and happy. Now she goes to the front door and looks out the window about the same time every day, and starts making happy noises when she sees Christina.

“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”


“They were great! They kept my wife and I informed of the dogs wellbeing everyday with photos and text. We had a late pick up on Sunday due to our drive and they were very accommodating.”


“This is our third time having Jenna watch our pups in our home. She does a wonderful job of keeping them safe and sharing photos with us each day. She also takes very good care of our home and leaves it very clean and tidy after her stay. I will continue to book Jenna as I know she is responsible, caring and communicative when it comes to my pups. Thanks Jenna!”

“Debby was a wonderful pet sitter! I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care and knew he was safe, happy, and well taken care of. She even checked in with a picture of him. I would definitely recommend her!”

“I am so incredibly grateful for Samantha and her family. Her communication from the start was so reassuring. She asked all the right questions when I dropped her off and I knew she was in good hands. She sent tons of pictures and it was clear that Daisy was totally enjoying herself and felt comfortable in her new space. When I picked her up, my heart totally melted by how happy she was. I will ABSOLUTELY be using Samantha in the future! I highly recommend!”


“Bob was fantastic and his location is very convenient if you're staying in OC and can't bring your pup to your hotel. He sent lots of videos and photos throughout our stay, which we really appreciated, and he even gave our dog Lila some special gifts and treats. He was extremely responsive, caring, and accommodating. We'd book with him again if we're back in the area.”
