“We were very comfortable with leaving our rescue dog with Jenny for a 3 night stay. We met with a couple weeks prior and our dog felt comfortable enough with her that she wanted to stay with her that day. When we brought our baby back for her stay she was very excited to see Jenny again which was very comforting for us!”
“Jen’s the best! Highly recommended her services. It’s a great sign when Piper is super excited when we pull up and doesn’t wanna leave. I know she is in good hands and having a blast!”

“Recently left my puppy with Thelma. I was able to go on vacation without concerns for my pups well being. She took extra precautions to keep him safe by putting up extra barricades around her fence to prevent him from escaping. My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.”
“Myra is took great care of my grandpup Ollie! This was his first time staying with a dog sitter so I was not sure how he would behave but Ollie was so happy & playful when he met Myra and stayed with her. Myra also sent me pictures of Ollie and provided updates often which I really appreciated . I highly recommend using her services !!”
“Brooklyn took amazing care of our pup, Cooper! She kept us updated throughout the entire stay and sent lots of pictures which we really appreciated.

Cooper loved spending time with Winnie and we felt so relieved knowing that he was in good company and felt right at home. Thank you, Brooklyn!”
“Dory’s first stay with Micki went very well and Dory had a great time. We’re very pleased with the care that Micki provided and have booked Dory’s next stay with Micki. As pet parents, we are very comfortable leaving Dory with Micki and know that she will be safe, loved, and well cared for.”
“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”
“Teresa is absolutely AMAZING! She was so kind and understanding with our rambunctious pups! I worried the entire time we were gone if they'd be on their best behavior but Teresa assured me everything would be and was okay and that she's able to handle it all. I have been looking for someone like her for a very long time and she is a Godsend!”
“Zackie is an EXCEPTIONAL pet sitter! She accepted my last-minute booking and seamlessly accommodated my unpredictable travel plans. Throughout Simba’s stay, she sent regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. It was clear he received top notch care and fit right in with her family. I HIGHLY recommend her. Your pet will be treated with genuine love and outstanding care.”

“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!”

“I am so happy we found Jer when we did. I needed a place where I felt safe leaving my good boy during the day and this is it! Jer is kind and patient, great with communication and sends plenty of pics of Grizzly happily playing with his new friends. I can go to work and know that he is in good hands. What a relief!”
About: A little experience background: * I was raised learning to care for pets in a family of trainers and boarders. We also spent a lot of time working with local shelters. * Professionally, I started working in boarding and assisting with training and behavioral rehabilitation 20 years ago * In 2012, I started my career in dog grooming * I am certified to groom dogs and cats * In 2020, I became certified to train new groomers for their certifications. My specialties: * I specialize in fear-free, comfort experiences. * I do trauma rehabilitation grooming for pets who can't go to standard salons due to behavior/aggression issues. For this, I focus on building trust and over time, getting your fur babies comfortable enough with the process so that they learn to enjoy being groomed. The goal is to one day get them to the point where they can once again be welcomed back to a normal salon. * Many of the grooms I perform are also for pets that are unable to be serviced in standard salons due to health issues. * Senior pet care * Puppy care * Basic training * Administering medications and monitoring for symptoms and side effects. What to expect during their stay: * Daily walks 2-4 times a day (depending on if you have them in a schedule, I try to maintain that for you) * Plenty of one on one time and attention! * Trips to the dog park (with your permission and depending on your pet for obvious safety reasons) * Story time! (It may sound silly, but I have found that offensive times, relaxing and reading a bedtime story out loud, often helps to calm a pets anxiety levels. I have even had success in this with pets that have high anxiety and destructive/aggressive behavior for storms and loud noises when they were out of their medication) * A calming, loving, family experience for your fur baby. Always. * Picture, video, and message updates about your pet! * Play time and exercise! * Trust that I will follow strict instructions and schedules if given. Routine is important. * Trust that your pup is being cared for someone experienced in emergency and medical situations. I will act quickly and always do what is best for your pet! In anything I do, I ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat all pets like they are family and build genuine bonds. Communication is key, so it is important that you not only communicate as much information about your dog to me so I can give the best experience, but also that you receive full reports on behavior, any changes I may have noticed in your pup, subtle signs of potential health concerns, etc. I will also work with your dog on basic training if needed during their stays, and educated you as needed on grooming maintenance, your pets body language and behavior shifts to elevate your bond at home as well. I do offer grooming services for any pets in my care. However, pricing and service completion will depend on the size of your dog, condition your pet is in, and their stress levels. I will never force a pet through a service. 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.
“I couldn’t be more pleased with Myra’s kindness, patience and attentiveness while hosting my Fido. her photo updates and DM’s throughout the day were very considerate and most welcome. I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for caring and competent care of their furry buddy”
“Elizabeth was fantastic!! Watched our girl Lylah on short notice, and was great about our time running long! It’s obvious she took great care of our baby! She was good with giving updates and pics!

“Tiffany responded timely to our booking request. She was welcoming to our pups and is clearly a natural dog person. After a quick introduction to exchange all relevant information, she helped us make a quick exit while distracting the pups. She was flexible with times so we could take a day of our camping trip to spend a day at the beach. We received a few pictures and had no concerns during our day apart. After letting her know when to expect us back, she prepared our pups to be ready and they were waiting on the porch for us so we could quickly pick them up and get back to camp. I would recommend her to anyone needing similar doggy day care in the area.”
About: I grew up having dogs my whole life. I have a dog of my own who loves meeting new friends. I have volunteered at animal shelters for over 5 years. I also have experience fostering animals, as well as dog sitting different types of dogs for friends and family. I love working with animals, and have a lot of experience with them. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available at all times throughout the day. I have experience with dog walking and can keep pets overnight. Also, I will follow any special routine for dogs with more advance needs. I hope to work with you soon and enjoy meeting your furry best friend. Thank you very much! Because I work from home I can be home the majority of the day and my schedule is very flexible. I also keep my availability schedule updated. I live on an acre of land with a fenced in backyard. There is a lot of room to run and play inside the house as well as outside. I do not feel comfortable boarding a dog who attempts to “escape” from yards.
About: I have loved dogs all my life, and have always had atleast 1. I am an extremely introverted person, but NOT with dogs. I enjoy the company of dogs more then people, which is why I do this. I currently have 2 dogs, a 8 month old Jug, and 3 year old Rat Terrier. My dogs are usually friendly with other dogs, but I can put them in a sperate part of the house if needed for whatever reason. I will treat your dog just like one of my own. I love to spoil dogs with lots of attention, love, and treats. I am physically disabled and unable to work a normal job. The good news about this is I am usually always home, and very flexible with when I can take care of your dog. I've never met a dog I couldn't win over, so don't be concerned if you have a difficult pup, I'll find a way to make it work! I realize my rates are higher than most sitters, but that's because I offer a premium one-on-one sitting experience. I'm not like those other sitters that will take in 10 plus dogs at a time and just stick them somewhere til you pick them back up. I only take in one household of dogs at a time and will not leave them at any time while I have them. They will be treated like they are family, given lots of attention and love the whole time I have them. At no time will they be put in a Kennel(unless specified by owner) and they will sleep in the bed with me and my dogs or anywhere else in the house they want. I currently am without a vehicle but I plan to have one again soon. So I will not be able to pick up any dogs or house site any dogs for a few month probably. I have a fenced in area outside if that is needed for dogs, but is rarely ever used. Dogs will stay with me in the house, or on a leash when outside.

They'll be treated as our own, loved & spoiled.
About: I have cared for cats for most of my life but 5 years ago my fiancé and I adopted my first dog. For the past 5 years, I’ve cared for my dog, Mary Jane, who has been my sweetest teacher in understanding dog behavior, routines, and communication. Through caring for her, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walking, feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, administering simple medications, and creating a calm, consistent environment for a happy pup. I have also cared for many friends pets while they were away on vacation. I may be new to Rover, but I’m not new to being a responsible, attentive animal owner. 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. 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.

Drop offs/Pick ups no later than 830pm. As of right now I can have one client at a time, Thank you. I have a 6 foot privacy fence and the front room is set up for your pup to stay in and there is a XXL crate and for smaller pups I have a large play pen and a canopy bed. I do have three dogs that are friendly, however my house is constructed to where I can keep everyone separated and comfortable.
About: Hi, my name’s Lindsey! I’m 25 years old and I absolutely love all sorts of animals. At home I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, Goats, Ducks, chickens, a gecko, a turtle and fish.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a baby. When I got to middle school my friend asked to watch her dogs while her family was out of town and I agreed. While Covid was still around I would do virtual school and take care of our dogs while my parents worked. I am hoping to do this part time while I am home from college (Between Middle of May and Early August). I am available any time during the day. I can feed the dogs or medicine if needed, fill the water bowls, take them outside (a fenced yard is preferred please or trained), I am willing to walk dogs to get any energy out.
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.
“Kaitlyn was punctual, gave Shelby TLC, and helped me out at the last minute to ensure my pup got the walks she needed at lunch. Would definitely recommend Kaitlyn to help with your furbaby.”
About: I have pet sit for dogs, cats, horses, donkeys and chickens. I care for animals as if they are my own. I have worked at pet stores and started learning about dog training. I am working full time remotely so I have lots of time to help your pets with their needs! I am available most every day with notice! I will give your pets as much attention as they want and need. I will take them on walks, play with them, and protect them as if they are my own.

“We were very comfortable with leaving our rescue dog with Jenny for a 3 night stay. We met with a couple weeks prior and our dog felt comfortable enough with her that she wanted to stay with her that day. When we brought our baby back for her stay she was very excited to see Jenny again which was very comforting for us!”
“Jen’s the best! Highly recommended her services. It’s a great sign when Piper is super excited when we pull up and doesn’t wanna leave. I know she is in good hands and having a blast!”
“I can tell my dogs felt loved and comfortable at Brooke’s house. The house has a securely fenced-in yard. Brooke kept me updated and reassured me that my sensitive dog Jazzy was not feeling abandoned.”
“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”
“Zackie is an EXCEPTIONAL pet sitter! She accepted my last-minute booking and seamlessly accommodated my unpredictable travel plans. Throughout Simba’s stay, she sent regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. It was clear he received top notch care and fit right in with her family. I HIGHLY recommend her. Your pet will be treated with genuine love and outstanding care.”
“Zelie was great! She responded quickly to messages and was kind and flexible especially when we asked to add an additional night to our dogs stay at the last minute. She also sent good updates, pictures and even a couple short videos! I definitely hope to book her again!!”
“If you want your dog to be treated like a member of the family, book with Brenda! She took excellent care of my beagle mix Iris and her space is very comfortable for pups - lots of snuggly blankets and great yard for them to play. Thank you Brenda!!”
“Goose had a wonderful stay with Jeren and I am so grateful for the clear communication and attention to her needs. She clearly knows a lot about dogs and provided excellent care.”
“I’m thankful for Kari & Jospeh’s family for loving and caring my baby like their own, it was stress free time during his stay we’re I don’t have to worry about how he is doing since he is in great hands. My boy would love to come back again,”
“My sweet girl had the best time at Emily’s! She was well taken care of and accommodated for. I received daily updates and pictures of my pup and her new friends! 10/10 would recommend. :)”
About: I have had dogs since I was a baby. I have cared for dogs of every stage of life, and I’m super passionate about senior dogs and small animals. Both my dogs are friendly with ferrets and other small animals, always supervised of course. I have experience in dogs, cats, ferrets, and all rodents. No experience with reptiles but I have read a lot about the husbandry of geckos and bearded dragons. Always willing to learn to have your pet be most comfortable in our home. I currently am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of extra time for animals. We (my boyfriend and I) already dedicate a huge portion of our time to our dogs so we would love to add more to the mix lol. My daughter (5yo) also loves animals and is learning the ropes of helping take care of them. We have a very big yard, and while it’s not fenced in there is still plenty of space to run on a lead! I can also help with potty training, pad training and lead training as well as socializing with our two very friendly goofy dogs.

There is plenty of room for playtime and resting. Pets are welcome on all furniture

Julie even provided updates! Julie gave us the best gift of all, which was true relaxation free of worry!!”
