“My pups had a great time playing with all the other fur babies. She was wonderful with our 7mo old terrorist 🤣 Gave plenty of updates and photos. Highly recommend 👌”
“We needed a last minute dogsitter for our puppy while we left town for a few days. Christina not only was willing to watch our dog on a last minutes notice but took the best care of him! He came back calm, happy, and relaxed. We knew he felt so comfortable with her. Thank you so much for such great care of our dog, Christina! We can’t recommend her enough!”

“Brad was friendly and courteous. My pups seemed very happy when I picked them up, and he was kind enough to send a couple pictures of them getting all the cuddles they could want!”
“Dani was amazing! She had everything already set up to welcome little Blueberry into her home. She was sweet and kind. Blueberry was instantly right at home. Dani took great care of her and sent pictures every day. I will definitely be leaving Blueberry with Dani again when I go out of town!”
“If you’re looking for someone who is caring, clearly loves dogs, and will put you at ease while you’re traveling, then Natalie is the right choice. She sent us photos every day, took good care of our two doggos, and when we picked them up they were relaxed and happy. In fact, one of my dogs didn’t want to leave. You can’t do better. Thanks Natalie!”
“Tracy is a wonderful caretaker. This was Rosie’s first time with her. Tracy really focused on my dog, and spent time with her to make sure was happy and having fun. She left me a lot of updates to reassure me throughout the day. I know my dog was well taken care of and had fun at her home.”
“Rebecca and Michael were awesome. They took extremely good care of our 2 chihuahuas this past weekend. They sent several pictures over the weekend and kept us in the loop over the stay. If you are looking for a sitter this is definitely a safe and reliable caring sitters.”

“I call Laura a dog whisperer because my Callie is a very finicky eater and she ate her meals everyday while at Laura’s. Laura sent pictures of Callie every day and kept me posted how Callie was doing. Laura is so easy going and I think Callie felt her calmness. I’m looking forward to taking Callie back next month for another wonderful vacation with Laura and her doggie - Callie’s new best friend.”
“We highly recommend Lisa to watch your fur baby. Lisa and her family did a great job watching our English Bulldog Pablo while we were away for a long weekend. Pablo requires a lot of extra attention because he is a short nose breed. Lisa sent us photos and videos while we were away and we could tell that Pablo was having a fabulous time. Lisa was quick to reply for any communications we might have while we were gone. We will definitely be contacting Lisa the next time we need someone to watch Pablo.”
“I’m beyond grateful for the incredible care Melinda and her husband gave my little 6 lb Yorkie, Khloe. From the moment I left her with them, I felt completely at peace knowing she was in loving, trustworthy hands. They kept me updated every single day with how she was eating, sleeping, playing, and adjusting, which meant the world to me. They went above and beyond with her care — taking her on walks, giving her endless cuddles, attention, and comfort, and treating her as if she were their own baby. You can truly tell they have a genuine love and passion for animals. Khloe came home happy, relaxed, loved, and so well cared for. Finding someone you can fully trust with your fur baby is priceless, and I can honestly say Melinda and her husband are now Khloe’s forever sitters. We absolutely love them and highly recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, dependable, and exceptional pet care.”
“I looked at Nelli's reviews on line, before I decided to trust her with my little Fur Baby Girl. The best part is that it wasn't just a few reviews she had, but she had many and I believe they were all 5 stars. Then I went to the initial meet and greet and my Doggie almost didn't want to leave. I knew she would make a great Auntie for my Puppy cause you can see the love she has for animals in her eyes, from the moment I met her. My Little Boston Terrier obviously noticed it too... PLUS her whole family kept my Puppy pretty busy while I was away for an extended weekend, cause she was so relaxed when I got home, I just knew she got plenty of exercise, play time, and a ton of lovin/attention. I can't recommence Nelli enough, Fur Parents!!!”
“She settled right in and is very happy! Thank you so much for your kind and generous care of our little girl. We will definitely call again if we need a safe place for her.”
“Samantha and her family gave my Riley lots of love and attention, even taking her to an event they went to!! She took her on walks and gave her lots of play time with another pup she watches during the week. I will definitely be booking again so Riley can get lots of loving when we go out of town!!”

About: I’ve had pets as long as I can remember, and wouldn’t have it any other way. They are the charm of any home!! I would be honored to watch your pet. I currently work from home and have three dogs myself. All very loved and get along great with other animals, including cats!! I am home all day every day and the dogs thrive when we have a guest pet. My house is set up to where I can divide the animals and they’d still be comfortable. I also have a very large 2 acre lot that is completely fenced in.
“Briana has done a great job looking after our kitties. We had to leave town suddenly due to a family emergency, and she stepped right in to care for them. While we were gone there were terrible thunder storms, but she made sure the kitties felt safe. Thank you!!”
“5/5 – Absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! 🌟 Molly was an absolute gem as our cat and house sitter. From the moment we met for the meet & greet, she came across as so professional, thoughtful, and genuinely caring — she instantly put our minds at ease. She asked all the right questions, took detailed notes, and made us feel completely confident leaving our home and our shy boy, Black Fury, in her hands. During the sit, she went above and beyond in every way. Black Fury (who normally hides from anyone new for days) warmed up to her beautifully — I still can’t quite believe it! We received lovely regular updates with little stories about their day, which meant the world to us while we were away. Our home was looked after with such care, everything was spotless, and it honestly felt like Molly was just another member of the household. We are so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy, kind, and capable. It was truly a pleasure having her in our home, and we would welcome her back with open arms in a heartbeat. We’re already looking forward to booking her again next time we travel! Thank you so much, Molly — you’re the best! 🐾🏡”
“Bianca did a great job with my senior cat. She provided photos and video, updates about him and even cleaned up after him. She was also kind enough to put out the litter on trash day. I would definitely recommend Bianca.”
“It was my first time using Rover so I was nervous leaving Chester for a week. It was reassuring getting all the photos and updates and Sam was quick to respond. I could tell Chester was well taken care of and was in great hands! I would definitely use Sam again to watch Chester!”
About: I’ve volunteered several summers in row washing kennels and food bowls playing with the kittens and post them on social media to help get them adopted. I have two dogs of my own and have taken care of multiple animals at once. I can and will gladly work any day and I will care for your furry family as if they are my own. Your furry friends are safe in my care! However, I do work a 1-10pm job, typical 8 hour shifts! I take my dog for regular walks and to the groomers I brush him daily and make sure he is comfortable in his harness and leash. I am able to effectively use commands that your dog is used to. And can give tips are effective ways of to teach commands and keeping them safe and happy.
“Kylie was super easy to work with and did a great job of feeding our kitties while we were out of town. The photo updates gave us peace of mind. She even went the extra mile and provided photos of her playing with them! Would definitely use her again.”
About: I have cared for pets since birth coming from an animal loving family. It is my upmost belief that our furry friends are apart of our family so they deserve to be treated with the upmost love and care. I am an 8.5 year United States Navy veteran. I set aside time daily to have the opportunity to care for pets in need of care. I currently do not have any other pets in home so I am destined to have my full undivided focus on your extended family member/ members.
“Alyssa is absolutely AMAZING! Our kitties fell in love with her, and so did we! Not only did she take exceptional care of our pets, but she also managed to keep our house cleaner than we do – what a wonderful surprise! Alyssa, thank you for being an incredible house and pet sitter. We were so impressed that we've already booked you again. You're a true gem. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Thank you Tara. Our 2 dogs were well taken care of. I appreciate booking her last minute. We usually can have family watch our pups, but we will definitely call Tara again if we need a sitter.”
“Stephanie was a great sitter for our cat, Petey. She came through for us last minute as we were evacuating due to a hurricane. She was attentive, responsive, and even sent us photos of Pete during his stay. He’s a very needy cat, so we give her big props for watching him for us.”
About: Very patient and attentive with all my fur babies. Anyone who has ever owned a pet knows how much of a labor of love is required to be a pet parent. I’m always open to providing as much needed walks and belly rubs as possible so that your fur baby gets all the necessary attention. I have plenty of time to help with pet care. I try to make my schedule as flexible as possible, more or less depending on the pet owner needs. I usually make sure the environment is pet friendly and hide all small items that any pet could accidentally ingest, make sure that all of their toys are near, and medications that they need are nearby also. Sure that they have plenty of water and food for their liking or dependent on the specifications of the owner based up their pets needs. And try to make sure that they have something that smells like their owner near so they aren’t weary of their absence.
“Marie is fantastic!! I was nervous about leaving my dogs in the care of somebody I didn't know but she made this the best experience! All of my animals loved her and it was so nice having peace of mind that they were well cared for while I was gone. 100000% will use Marie again!!”
About: 🐶 What Sets Me Apart: ✔️ 30 years of hands-on dog experience ✔️ Familiar with breed-specific behaviors and needs ✔️ Skilled in senior dog care and administering medications ✔️ Great with shy, anxious, and rescue dogs ✔️ Reliable, punctual, and communicative Hi there! My name is Timothy, and I’ve spent the last 30 years loving, caring for, training, and bonding with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From high-energy puppies to wise old seniors, dogs have always held a special place in my heart—and in my home. I truly believe dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. That’s exactly how I treat every pup I care for. Whether your dog needs a weekend sitter, daily walks, playtime, or just a lot of belly rubs and love, I provide a safe, calm, and affectionate environment where they’ll feel at home and cared for like my own. When I care for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and your pet with compassion. I follow your instructions to a T—meals, walks, playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. I take time to bond with your dog so they feel safe and loved in their familiar environment. I also keep you updated with pictures and notes so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Whether your pet is high-energy, needs special care, or just wants a cuddle buddy, I adapt to their needs and give them the same level of care I’d want for my own.

“Rachel was a wonderful dog sitter for Rosie. My dog played all day with her dog and got a lot of exercise. She communicated with me throughout the day to give me updates about my dog. She made me feel comfortable having her as a person my dog will love to go see in the future visits”
“Mariana was such a WONDERFUL sitter for old Hilbert!! She took him for 2 walks, dried him off after getting stuck in the rain, and treated him like he belonged to her! If we are ever in St Augustine again, I will definitely use her again!”
“Molly is very kind and took excellent care of our special needs dog, Bandit. She keeps a super clean environment and goes the extra mile for your pet. I highly recommend her! Thanks Molly!”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I’m very attentive pet lover I enjoy spending time with animals, will play with, walk, feed, and care for your dog as if he or she is my own. I have dog sat for many friends and family members. Even got offered pets because of how well they seen me take care animals. I Have experience administering medicine, giving baths, nursing dogs back to health, training, and more. I’m very energetic and playful and will make sure your pet gets the proper exercise and burn off all that extra energy. I volunteer at the local animal shelter taking dogs on bow wow break out and fostering. I have 2 dogs stormy and koda. Stormy just turned a year old and koda is 6 months old very playful and loves other animals. We go on long walks in the park and on nearby trails. They love car rides and pup cups from Jermiah’s. I have two 4 year old cats Chloe, and Oliver that have their own room and kept separate from other animals when needed. I work from home overnight and I home school my 7 year old daughter so I’m home majority of the time outside of running errands. Morning feeding happen between 6 and 8am followed by yard play and then nap time. Pm feeding are usually between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm followed by a little time to burn off steam or a walk before bedtime. I do let pets out to use the bathroom every 2 to 4 hours. Bowls and crates are washed and kept clean daily along with vacuuming the floors. Loving and caring for your pet as if it’s my own, long walks, supervised play time, separate feedings, time to decompress, pets will always be leashed or in a secure enclosed area. Pets are allowed on furniture. I will keep pet owners updated with pictures and videos throughout visit. Calls and text anytime day or night are welcome.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every pet like family. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, even over nights all while giving lots of love while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so it’s easier for me to naturally fit pet care into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so I can give pets the attention they deserve—whether that’s morning and evening walks, feeding times, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m used to building my day around making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I keep a clean, safe environment and always watch for any changes in behavior or needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I also respect their space and follow any specific instructions they provide so their pet feels secure in their familiar environment.
About: What sets me apart is consistency, structure, and attention to detail. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable, hands-on care throughout the day—not just quick drop-ins. I’m especially strong at maintaining routines, which helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and small changes so I can adjust care in real time. I’m experienced with: • Puppies and reinforcing basic routines (potty schedules, crate familiarity, structured play) • Adult dogs with regular exercise and enrichment needs • Senior pets who require a slower pace, patience, and closer monitoring • Multi-pet households with different needs and personalities Clear communication is a big priority for me—I provide regular updates and photos so owners always feel confident their pet is in good hands. I work from home and manage a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I structure my routine to accommodate pet needs first—whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I am available for weekday and weekend bookings, including repeat schedules. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9–5 outside the home, I can maintain reliable routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, and any specific needs before care begins. In my home: • Pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment • I maintain a structured routine to reduce stress and keep pets comfortable • I avoid overcrowding to ensure each pet gets proper attention In clients’ homes: • I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and routines • I respect your home and keep everything clean and secure • I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of discomfort so I can respond quickly if anything seems off.
About: Care for 30-60 pounds doggies. At this time I am only able to accept doodles due to my work. I work with food, bake all kinds of pastries and breads. Only non shedding pups at this time as I cannot have any hair around my kitchen. I am home most of the time so potty breaks can be as often as needed. My pets are my children. When asked how many kids do I have I say 4. Two human babies and 2 animal babies. My pups are very gentle with my children and I would like to continue with such puppies/ guests. I have been around dogs all of my life. Grew up in Poland with family who had farms and all kinds of animals. Dogs were always around. Playing with them was part of growing up and having fun. Now I have 2 sheepadoodles (Lilly and Bella) who are wonderful companions. They are big, furry, loving addition to my family. Cannot imagine living without them. My 4 legged babies can get me smiling on a bad day. I care about them as much I as do about my human children. They absolutely love humans, and get along with other dogs.. I am home almost all the time so your dogs will not feel lonely. Also doggies are allowed to run freely , there are no cages. Our yard is fenced and pretty big with toys to play with. I would like to take dogs between 30-60 pounds. just because mine are 50 and 70 pounds and by my experience they do play better. I take only 1 guest pup at the time so the experience is more personal. Also that helps me to keep all of them safe .... there are 4 cameras in our house so I can have an eye on my furry babies even when I am grocery shopping or running errands. Safety and love is what I like to share. I had taken a break from Bording due to personal issues. When pregnant with second child someone smashed into my car. Don’t remember anything. Woke up in a hospital couple of days later. High risk pregnancy. My daughter is 6 now and I decided to resume taking a doggie companion. It is very important I only have gentle dogs guests. Especially Gentle with children around. Thank you for understanding. I am stay home mom. If I go out it won’t be longer than 2-3 hours most of the Time. I have been stay home mom for 9 years now. I have a fenced yard and 2 doggies to keep your pup company. If I step out it is for couple of hours only. I have 4 cameras in my home to check on them as often as I want to.
“I couldn't be more pleased with Katherine she went above and beyond my expectations she sent photos and videos of my dog having the time of his life I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone who wants a loving and kind dog sitter she was awesome in every way possible”
“I cannot express in words properly how absolutely wonderful Natalie was with our big goofy hound. Natalie put all of our anxieties at ease with her gentle nature and patience. Our pup seemed to look forward to his second day with her and had zero separation anxiety!!! Thank you Natalie for taking such great care of our fur baby!!!!!!!!”
“Tracy is an exceptional caregiver. I have a 15 year old miniature pinscher that Tracy took care of for the day recently. Throughout the day, Tracy checked in with me via text, sending pics of my chilled out dog. I knew my dog was comfortable and calm when Tracy sent a pic of her begging for snacks. When I picked up my dog later that afternoon, she was relaxed and sleepy. Tracy is a consummate professional. After I contacted her about day care, we had a meet and greet so my dog could get acquainted with her. Tracy was on time and exhibited kindness and trustworthiness from the get go. She loves dogs and it showed. I hope to use her day care service again because I know my dog will be well taken care of. Compassion, kindness, and trustworthiness are qualities that Tracy possesses in abundance. I highly recommend her.”
“Katie was wonderful with Bella! She took her on a walk, played with her, made sure she stayed entertained, and even gave her some nap time. I really appreciated the detailed updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while Bella was in her care. Katie is so friendly, personable, and clearly loves what she does. Bella had a great time, and I felt completely comfortable leaving her in Katie’s care. I would absolutely recommend Katie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! 🐾💕”
“Lindsey and Leroy were great with my dog. They were flexible with the times we needed a sitter and kept me up to date while my dog was in their care. Lindsey was very communicative and I would use her again!”

“Nelli and her daughter were very great with taking care of Buddy. The love and care they gave Buddy speak volumes. Buddy was going through a "scared of being around people" stage, but around Nelli and her daughter, he warmed up instantly and really enjoyed being around them. Buddy was in good hands during the two times I had to drop him off with Nelli. She is someone I can trust and feel comfortable leaving my young puppy with. I will be using her services in the future, and highly recommended her to anyone who needs someone to dog sit, walk the dog, or board. If there were 10 stars, that's what I would give her!”

It was more than just a walk. I would recommend her services if you need someone to look after your dog. I hope to hire her in the future.”
“I cannot speak highly enough about the fantastic dog walking service provided by William for my beloved Coco. As a dog owner, finding a reliable and caring walker is crucial, and William has exceeded all expectations!! From day one, William has been incredibly dependable. He has never missed a scheduled walk and always arrives on time, rain or shine. Knowing that Coco is in good hands gives me great peace of mind while I'm at work or school. Communication with William is seamless. He is always responsive to messages, and he proactively updates me on Coco's walks. I appreciate the occasional photos he sends – they brighten up my day and allow me to see Coco enjoying her time with him :) Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend William as a dog walker for any fur parent. His genuine love for dogs, combined with his professionalism and reliability, makes him an outstanding choice. Coco is in great hands with William, and I am grateful to have him as a trusted dog walker. Thank you, William, for providing such exceptional care and love to Coco on her walks!”

About: Hi, My name is Maarten and twenty-nine years ago, I applied for an internship at Artis, a zoo in Amsterdam. As luck would have it, I didn't get the job and life took me in a different direction. Now I am 45 years old and fate has finally delivered me to a spot where I can get back to my childhood dream of working with animals. I grew up in a household filled with animals: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, rats and parrots. This nurtured a wide knowledge of animal care. Over the years, we've had 9 dogs, all of which I trained myself. At the moment, I am raising a 1.5 year old German Shepherd and a 6 month old BullMastiff mix. I want to say that over the years, dogs have grown especially close to my heart. To be honest, they have completely taken over. At the moment, I work part-time as a kennel attendant for S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue. Although I consider it a dream job, my long-term goal is to open up my own doggy daycare. Approach to Dog Walking: I believe that every dog is unique and deserves the utmost care and respect. I approach dog walking with a big smile and a warm heart. My goal is to create a fun and lively experience for your dog, making each walk a joyful adventure. During our walks, I'll ensure your furry friend's safety and well-being, while also encouraging positive behavior. Wednesday and Thursday I work for S.A.F.E. Animal Shelter. The rest of the week I am available between 08:00 and 15:30. Evening visits can be planned by special request. The safety of your pets and property are my main focus. Before you take me on as your pet profesional we will go over your dog's/cat's strengths and weaknesses to ensure a healthy happy and safe experience.
About: I am an animal lover. I have had cats all my life, and dogs for most of it. Big, small, furry, I can help you! At the moment I work remotely and will soon start as a substitute teacher, so I anticipate having a fair amount of free time on my hands. I have been caring for cats, dogs for over 30 years (I'm 35 and I've been doing it my entire life). I would love to play tug-o-war, fetch, snuggle with kitty, or whatever they want to do!
About: Experience in distributing oral and injection medications, as well as special dietary needs. Fun- loving personality and an active lifestyle. Experience with show dogs. Experience with pets diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, diabetes, and allergies. Experience with senior dogs experiencing most or complete loss of vision and hearing disabilities. I work my career-based job on a part time basis, so I have plenty of time during the week to give your pets all the love and attention they need. ☺️ I always tend to pets in their home as the owners have directed me. It is your pet’s home and I am just a guess, so I feel it is important he/she feel as much normality and comfort as possible.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for my own German Shepherd, along with my Goldendoodle. Through owning and caring for large, high-energy dogs, I've developed a strong understanding of the exercise, structure, patience, and attention they need to thrive. I'm also a Rover customer myself. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and communicative when leaving your pets in someone else's care. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I have experience with large dog breeds, high-energy dogs, puppies, and multi-dog households. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications and following specific care instructions to help maintain your pet's normal routine. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care during walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting stays. My goal is always to make your pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to getting to know your furry family members! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As I currently work from home and I’m an dog owner, I'm used to structuring my day around walks, exercise, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing consistent care and attention. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, consistency, and making your pet feel comfortable while you're away. I take the time to learn your pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions, so they can maintain the structure they're used to. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and home. I treat every home with respect, keep pets securely leashed or contained as instructed, and pay close attention to their behavior and well-being. I'm experienced with large and high-energy dogs and understand the importance of safe handling, exercise, and supervision. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can stay informed and have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for both you and your pets to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for throughout the entire visit or stay.

I currently do not have any other pets in home so I am destined to have my full undivided focus on your extended family member/ members.

About: Very patient and attentive with all my fur babies. Anyone who has ever owned a pet knows how much of a labor of love is required to be a pet parent. I’m always open to providing as much needed walks and belly rubs as possible so that your fur baby gets all the necessary attention. I have plenty of time to help with pet care. I try to make my schedule as flexible as possible, more or less depending on the pet owner needs. I usually make sure the environment is pet friendly and hide all small items that any pet could accidentally ingest, make sure that all of their toys are near, and medications that they need are nearby also. Sure that they have plenty of water and food for their liking or dependent on the specifications of the owner based up their pets needs. And try to make sure that they have something that smells like their owner near so they aren’t weary of their absence.

She sent us photos every day, took good care of our two doggos, and when we picked them up they were relaxed and happy. In fact, one of my dogs didn’t want to leave. You can’t do better. Thanks Natalie!”

“We highly recommend Lisa to watch your fur baby. Lisa and her family did a great job watching our English Bulldog Pablo while we were away for a long weekend. Pablo requires a lot of extra attention because he is a short nose breed. Lisa sent us photos and videos while we were away and we could tell that Pablo was having a fabulous time. Lisa was quick to reply for any communications we might have while we were gone. We will definitely be contacting Lisa the next time we need someone to watch Pablo.”
“I looked at Nelli's reviews on line, before I decided to trust her with my little Fur Baby Girl. The best part is that it wasn't just a few reviews she had, but she had many and I believe they were all 5 stars. Then I went to the initial meet and greet and my Doggie almost didn't want to leave. I knew she would make a great Auntie for my Puppy cause you can see the love she has for animals in her eyes, from the moment I met her. My Little Boston Terrier obviously noticed it too... PLUS her whole family kept my Puppy pretty busy while I was away for an extended weekend, cause she was so relaxed when I got home, I just knew she got plenty of exercise, play time, and a ton of lovin/attention. I can't recommence Nelli enough, Fur Parents!!!”
“Samantha and her family gave my Riley lots of love and attention, even taking her to an event they went to!! She took her on walks and gave her lots of play time with another pup she watches during the week. I will definitely be booking again so Riley can get lots of loving when we go out of town!!”
“Madison is so sweet! She and her mom care for the dogs and you can tell they love animals. She sent pictures and they loved it there. There were some changes in the schedule and she went out of her way to communicate and accommodate the situation. We feel relief knowing our girls are safe and well cared for!”

“Rachel did an amazing job looking after my dog over a 10-day vacation that I had. She was very communicative and supplied updates alongside pictures for the ease of any anxiety I would have leaving my baby in her care. She also asked if certain behaviors were normal or abnormal for my dog further allowing me to know she was really attentive to how he was behaving and what he needed. Would definitely book again!”
“My dogs had another great stay at Roseanna's house! They returned happy and healthy. I appreciate all of the pics she sends and daily updates. I am able to enjoy my trip without having to worry. I love how she welcome's them as part of the family. I will definitely use her again!”
