“Charlayda is so sweet and kind to my pup and I. She was flexible although my plans were all over the place which I appreciated so much. She sent lots of photos and I can tell really gave my pup all the loves he deserves. Thank you so much and will be booking again!”
“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”
“The most amazing people we’ve ever worked with. Could not recommend someone better. Highly recommend working with them. Almost hate to leave a 5 star review, don’t want anyone else to steal them away lol! Excellent communication, updates, and keeping our puppy in his routine.”
“My Kaviar enjoys every minute with Wendy and her family. Wendy provides exceptional care and provides photos of Kaviar everyday. When I leave Kaviar with Wendy,I know he will be cared for as I would, and will be cherished as family.”
“10 out of 5!!!!TOP NOTCH! We have boarded our dog once and she was with our other lab. Since becoming an “only” we have not boarded her; when needed she stayed with family. We were very nervous about leaving Scout, especially with a “stranger”. Well, Cindy didn’t feel like a stranger. Scout had an absolute blast. Cindy went above and beyond with our girl. Scout is a ball lover and apparently talked Cindy into playing ball a great deal. 😊. We could not have asked for better communication; we received daily updates which really put our minds at ease. We could have gone to a Rover pet sitter much closer to our home but Cindy’s reviews sold us. The reviews are not exaggerated - she is all that everyone before us has said and then some. She took care of Scout as if Scout were her own fur baby. Will be telling all of our friends about Cindy. We can’t recommend her enough - they aren’t enough stars!! Tina and Phil”
“She is super sweet, very communicative which I really appreciate. My dog was super happy, like at home. We felt so relieved that our dog was in good hands. Thank you so much, we will definitely go back to her every time we have to go out. Thank you so much again :)”
“Yekaterina is the BEST! I always feel comfortable having our fur baby stay with her when we travel. She is so warm and I can tell she just loves our little Ivy 🐕”
“Skylar really enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn and Andrew. She was well cared for and I received frequent picture updates. I will definitely use them again when the need arises. Thank you so much.”
“Randy, Mimi and their daughter are fantastic dog sitters! Always engaged with your dog and keep you updated on everything! They were very easy to talk to about my pup which helped put my mind at ease while I was at work. Through pictures and videos I could tell they made my puppy feel loved and part of their family. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a local sitter!”
“So incredibly grateful! Gus was a happy boy and it made me a happy mama! He had so much fun and was so loved and cared for! He can’t wait to go back!”
“Wonderful experience! I think Little Bit is a little sad ! He was able to play with alot of other dogs his size. Pattie was Wonderful, took pictures kept me updates on the play times. Definitely recommend her for 1st time Rover users.”
“Tyler did amazing with my dog gunna, she cared for him like her own and sent updates and pictures daily! We will be using her again when we need services!!”
“Chrissy took us in after our rover cancelled last minute before my trip! She sent pictures of Bubba and took him on a walk. He had plenty of friends to play with and had so much fun under her care. She also labeled his bowels and food which I thought was a great way to stay organized. Chrissy was very professional and kind. We would definitely book Chrissy again!”
“Roogles had so much fun staying with Rachel and her family! This is the longest we have ever been away from Roogles, but Rachel sent several pics and it was clear that he was happy and fit right in with her family. Rachel has a sweet family that clearly loves animals! Their dog Dan-O is Roogles new best friend! When we picked him up, he didn’t run for the door like he usually does, he wanted to stay! When we got home, Roogles roamed our house looking for Dan-O! Rachel is definitely our number one pick in the future!”
“If I could give more stars I would. Em.Z was very caring and attentive to my dog. She sent pictures the entire time. I could very much tell my dog was comfortable. Definitely made me feel better leaving my dog while I was on my honeymoon. I thank you so much for taking care of Bo ❤️❤️❤️”
“It was my first time using this Rover app for my puppy and I have to say Blanca was amazing with my puppy Nori. Definitely will be calling her again . She was very loving towards her and my puppy seemed very happy.”
“Edward is fantastic! Our dog stayed with him for 10 days and came back happy and well-cared for. It took all the stress out of our vacation knowing he was in such good hands.”
“Laura is incredible she took such good care of my two dogs. They are very anxious little pups, she helped them to feel calm and relaxed. Daily updates with pictures were consistent. When I picked up my pups they were calm and happy which is not normally the case. Usually when they have been away from me they are anxious when I pick them up and it takes several days to settle. You wouldn’t have known that I had been away. I really appreciate Laura and her husband. They were great gift during a difficult time for me when I had to leave quickly for my brother’s funeral. I will definitely use them again.”
“This was the best experience I’ve ever had. I went out of town for a couple of days . And she stay in contact with me the entire time sent pictures and responded back fast. I really appreciate how caring she is when I comes to pets. She is literally the best. Book with her assp !”

“Ashley was great. This was our first time leaving our kitty and using a pet sitter. We were anxious leaving her but Ashley gave us detailed updates every visit and pictures. She also answered any questions we had. We will definitely request her services again.”
“Jeweliana was thorough, communicative, and kind throughout our booking with her. She was willing to accommodate adjustments, and asked questions that showed she was deeply paying attention to our cats and their welfare. I could not have asked for someone better to watch our kitties for us, and would definitely book with her again.”
“Karen is amazing. Played with my two cats, showed up on time. Followed instructions to a "T", and my girls really appreciated her company and care. Made going out of town easy and stress free. I'll definitely book again when I need cat care, I cannot stress how amazing of an experience this was!”
“Jada went above and beyond. Stayed the whole time, played with my cat, and even had time to cuddle him. This was a huge relief, I had not left town since getting the cat because I didn’t have someone I could trust with him. Now I do: Jada!”
“I don’t even know where to start. I had to go to the hospital unexpectedly and was panicking about my cats and my apartment. Illeana responded right away and stepped in when I really needed someone. She met me at the hospital to get my keys and took such good care of my babies, sending me pictures and updates that gave me so much peace of mind. But what she did beyond that completely shocked me. I came home to a clean apartment. She took out all my trash, cleaned my kitchen, washed dishes, bought bowls for my cats, left cleaning supplies and even flowers on the counter. She showed me so much kindness during one of the hardest weeks I’ve had. I have no family or friends in this country so she’s the only one I had during that time. She is compassionate, trustworthy, and truly goes above and beyond. I will never forget what she did for me and my cats. If you’re thinking about booking her, please do. She’s amazing.”
About: I’ve loved cats my whole life and I think they’re are truly the best! I have three kitties - Dodo (8y, Siberian, adopted in 2021), Rexi (2y, shorthair, adopted in 2024) and Vision (1y, shorthair, rescued in 2025). I also take care of the stray cats in my neighborhood and participate in TNR (trap-neuter-release) programs. I often look after my friends cats when they are out of town. People love to say I’m a cat lady, and I take it as a compliment. Vision is blind so I have experience with taking care of cats with disabilities, as well as can give oral medication. I would love to take care of your kitties!
“Charlayda is the best. She took great care of our five cat babies while we were out of town. She sent us lots of pictures/videos, brought in our packages, and became a part of the fam! She even helped with an unexpected emergency on our last booked day- we super appreciated all of her help. We will definitely be booking her again! Thank you so much Layda!”
“Marilyn is such a great sitter for my Mason! He has some quirks when I’m out of town and she catered to all of them. He was so happy in the photos she sent.”
“Hailey was awesome! Looked forward to seeing her updates and photos every night while I was away, and she did a great job at making me feel reassured that my kitties were well taken care of!”
“Holly was awesome with our four Kid-ttens. The 2 youngest really love spending time with Holly on the patio. They always had food & water top off. Their litter boxes were cleaned out. We were very p)eased with the quality of her service. We will call on Holly again. We highly recommend her to watch over your babies too”
About: I have my own doggies, they are both 3! I’m used too picking up the pet care when parents leave to go out of town and just take stress off their shoulders! Friends and family, cats and dog i’ve always been the one they call. I’m used to very strategic routines with my baby’s so i’m willing to do the same for yours. Doing the best in every way to make my stay with them as comfortable as possible! I currently work 5 days a week 8-2pm and i’m looking too pick up something i’m actually interested in, We all know how a high school job can last after high school when it wasn’t planned and i’m very interested in baby sitting and pet sitting for people and just giving back the love i share with my animals where it’s needed! I have a fenced in yard for both of my puppies and everyday i come home and make sure they get plenty of play time with me. They have a routine with me, I feed them every evening at 5pm and give them supplements for their health so they live the longest and happiest life !
“Risa has been wonderful! I had to leave my Rocket for a short trip and she took care and attended to his needs while I was away. Will definitely book her again. :)”
“adriana was absolutely amazing to my kitties! she adjusted care to their specific needs and will definitely be booking with her again. she’s so sweet and loves animals :)”
“This was our second time requesting Maria's help and she was great! Even on short notice and a mistake on my end with the booking Maria delivered quality care for our cat!”
About: I’ve had multiple cats throughout my life and I currently have 2 babies of my own, who I provide the best care I possibly can for. I’ve worked with cats in a professional setting for almost 2 years. I have experience deep cleaning litter boxes, feeding, administering topical and oral medications. I have worked with kittens from around 3 months to senior citizen cats as well. I understand that a lot of cats are very anxious with new people and I always take it slow when introducing myself to them. I’ve always been biggest cat lover ! 🩷
“Maggie was absolutely wonderful with my cats. She was an easy choice for me - she communicated professionally, was very cheery at our meet and greet, and listened intently to every detail I shared about my cats. She cared for my cats like they were her own! I highly recommend her!”
“Samantha is a very respectful and polite lady. She asked me some of the relevant information I forgot to mention and asked what I'd like her to do to make sure we had the same goal. She checked in and out when coming and going and provided me with how the dog did. Great pick!!”

“This family is amazing at what they do. They are quick to respond to your booking request and they have accommodated me on several occasions when my schedule has changed. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while I’m in Florida for the holidays. They send soooo many pictures and videos. It’s wonderful!”
“Katya was great! She stayed in contact and progress updates on how Smokey was doing! Smokey came home exhausted from all the fun and in great shape. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Chrissy and fam were great. Ellie was quick to warm up and by the second day, she was already pawing at their front door to go inside. Chrissy made sure I was up to date on her day and she was excellent at communication. Highly recommend and definitely will return once the occasion arises.”
About: I have had the joy of having dogs and cats as my companions my entire life! Including 2 painted turtles and fish. I've always had a love for animals and nature. I absolutely enjoy meeting new pet friends of all kinds. I have been pet sitting here in Jacksonville for 3 years now and have had the pleasure of caring for parrots, fish, cats, and dogs. A client of mine has a cat that needs medication as well as my own dog with allergies. I've done pet sitting for my own veterinarian's small farm with ducks, chickens, mini ponies, and mini donkey's as well. I now basic training as my own dog attended puppy classes at the K9 Obedience Club of Jacksonville. In my younger years, I worked in a veterinarian clinic for 2 years. I took a different path and started a career in the medical field in a sleep lab and am now getting back to what I truly love. Pet care! Either way, I have a nurturing nature and will treat your pets just like my own! I am a stay-at-home mom currently. I pick my daughter up from school weekly and am unavailable from 1pm-2:30pm due to the commute. Otherwise, I'm available to care for or play with your pet any other time during the week. I am available anytime on the weekends. I have a large fenced in yard with two friendly dogs for your pets to play with. I crate my own dogs and can do the same for yours if need be. I give my own dog medication for her allergies and can do the same for your own. I never leave outdoor play unattended as I do have a pool. If feeding time is needed, I separate all so as to not cause issues. I give lots of love and attention!
“As always, Layda was awesome! She always takes such good care of Nala and Nala gets SO excited to go to daycare. Layda really is the best Dogsitter around!”
“Emma was great. Consistent communication and very accommodating. I was running a bit behind with pick up and she’s was quick to reassure me. I can tell Ellie had a blast with her and their dog Patrick. Highly recommend her care.”

“Hunnyhad an amazing day making new friends.. This was the best experience I have ever had being new to the area and I would most definitely recommend Marilyn if you want your baby safe and well taken care of. Hunny will only be going to Marilyn Q.”
“Reign took good care of our two dogs while we were at an event for the weekend. She was very flexible with our pickup and drop off times and quick to respond to messages.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I am very patient and loving. I know everyone might say that, but I really do love animals 🥰 I have my dog Kota who’s been my best friend for 10 years now, he’s super sweet and friendly with other animals. I have a huge backyard with a pool where your furry friend can run and swim. I also work from home so they will always have someone there. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. My mornings start off with feeding my animals and going for a morning walk with the dogs. During my lunch hour that’s when I let the dogs outside to run around and swim for an hour, and then again once my work day is done. We also take potty breaks in between. When my friends and family leave their dogs with me I follow the same schedule and make sure the dogs get plenty of exercise, tired dogs are happy dogs :) since I’m home all day me and Kota can provide companionship all day long for your furry kid :) I live in a house with a huge fenced in yard and a pool. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. I’m always around to make sure that they’re not eating things they’re not supposed to.
“Wendy was super awesome to accept my last minute booking for my baby's evening care. I have never left my Squiggle with a pro-sitter, so I was apprehensive about the experience - but I had to try it out, knowing I would probably need sitting services in the future. Wendy was on time picking up my little guy, and even went above and beyond when she went by the pet store to pick up Squiggy's fave brand of food at my request. Thanks, Wendy. She was responsive, quickly answering when I messaged to check on my baby. She even sent me pictures, and although he looked miserable BC he missed me (we are VERY attached), I was comfortable knowing he was well cared for while with Wendy. I had appointments until later that night and Wendy was very accommodating and dropped him off right when I asked, and she gave me a full update via Rover - right down to how many times Squiggy made poo. That is some serious awesome. And although very excited to see me and be home, Squiggy wasn't traumatized I left him with a stranger. Now that he has met Wendy, I wont hesitate to book her again, should we need her. Squiggy made a new friend, and I am now totally cool with Wendy watch my little guy again.”
“Laura was great. I was nervous about leaving Bella and she assured me she would be fine. Bella warmed right up and they had a great first day. I received pictures and videos of how Bella was doing throughout the day.”
“Yekaterina and her family are amazing! They watched my 8 week old puppy whitney for several days and treated her like family. She sent videos and cute pictures throughout the day and the kids played with my pup and were so good to her. My puppy loved it at their house! 🩷💕”
“This was my first time being away from my sweet girl since bringing her home. We booked a one day doggy daycare with Honey as a trial before her upcoming weekend stay, so Mila could get comfortable and adjust. Honey was wonderful and kept me updated with plenty of pictures throughout the day, which gave me such peace of mind. Mila came home happy and completely tuckered out from all the fun she had! 🐶🐾🎀”
“Here for the weekend and wanted our boy to go have fun and meet new friends. Megan took great care of our boy, giving him treats, cuddle time on the couch watching tv, and was a perfect overall experience couldn't be happier! Will be back in Jacksonville on more work outings and will definitely bring him back!”

About: Meet Sarah — A Lifelong Animal Lover You Can Trust Animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. From dogs and cats to rabbits and even flying squirrels, I’ve had the joy of caring for all kinds of creatures — and that deep love for animals is exactly what I bring to every sitting experience. At home, I share my days with three beloved pets of my own: Molly, my sweet 14-year-old chocolate lab; Tom, my spirited 11-year-old Catahoula leopard lab mix; and Harley, my 3-year-old cat. Living with senior dogs has given me firsthand experience with the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care that older pets need — and I genuinely cherish that slower, more intentional bond. I’ve been providing in-home pet sitting for many years, stepping into people’s homes and making sure their furry family members feel safe, loved, and right at home — because they are at home. I adapt completely to each pet’s personality and routine, whether they need quiet companionship, active playtime, or simply a calm and reassuring presence. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience caring for pets with special needs. Overnight stays are no problem — I know how much it means to have someone truly dedicated watching over your pet through the night. When you leave your dog or cat in my care, you’re leaving them with someone who sees pets as family. I can’t wait to meet yours. 🐾 During the school year, I teach culinary arts at the high school level and coach volleyball in the fall and lacrosse in the spring — so my schedule is full and purposeful. But my love for animals doesn’t take a season off. Weekends, afternoons, and evenings are when I’m most available, and summers and holiday breaks are when I’m all in. Those stretches are my busiest and most dedicated pet care seasons, and I genuinely look forward to them. When I’m with your pet, I’m not squeezing it in — I’m fully present and happy to be there. When I step into your home, my goal is simple: your pet shouldn’t feel like anything has changed. I follow your routines, respect your rules, and bring the same warmth and attentiveness I give my own animals. Whether that means quiet companionship on the couch, a walk around the neighborhood, or simply making sure a nervous cat knows they’re safe — I meet each pet where they are. Your home stays tidy, your pet stays comfortable, and you get updates so you can actually relax while you’re away.
“Macy is punctual and wonderful with my dog. I appreciate the effort she puts into each walk and really makes the most out of the time. Highly recommended her.”

About: I have cared for cats since I was about 10 years old and dogs since I was 15. I have volunteered in shelters for over a decade and have worked for a veterinary clinic for the past 4 years. I have experience with in home pet sitting as well as drop by visits. I can give most medications and love detailed instructions to give the best care possible. I currently work part time in the evenings and will be in college in the spring/fall time. I am available during the summer most hours and am happy to make things work as best as possible. I do not have a yard but live in a smaller HOA with areas to take longer walks and many grass spots for potty breaks. In my home the fur baby will have free rein of the upstairs and downstairs as long as I am home or will have the second bedroom to their selves. In the clients home I love a detailed list so I can do whatever the fur kiddo is used to on a daily routine.
“Karen did a wonderful job walking our dogs. We have one very high energy dog that can be difficult to walk until he releases energy and she handled him with such ease! Both of my dogs came back from each walk completely exhausted, it was perfect and exactly what we wanted! Karen was so lovely and we look forward to having her walk our dogs again!”
“Jada is FANTASTIC! I'm working night shifts as a medical student on an away rotation and was so nervous about leaving my dog overnight alone. Jada offered to come do a meet and greet the day before. She arrived promptly and my dog loved her. She came for an hour every night to walk him and hang out with him. One night I forgot to feed him and she gave him his dinner. She took lots of pictures and videos which I LOVE. Can't say enough wonderful things about her!”
About: Hi, I’m Hailey! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family and keep you completely at ease while you’re away, I’m your person. I’m a full time pet sitter and I truly love what I do. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 15 and have experience with a wide variety of pets including seniors and pets who need medication or extra care.

I do pet sitting full time and maintain open availability. This allows me to accommodate a variety of schedules while still providing consistent, high-quality care for every booking.

“Amazing would be an understatement. Maria’s love for dogs shined through from day one. My pet adored her, probably a little too much! Maria went above and beyond to help sit/walk my dog. She followed my instructions to the tee and helped bring packages in while I was away which was an added bonus to her awesomeness. Will definitely book with her in the future and encourage others to as well.”
About: I have almost 2 years of professional experience working with dogs and cats. I am experienced with pets from around 3 months up to 15+ years. I am experienced in feeding, as well as administering both oral and topical medications to both cats and dogs. I have experience with shy, timid and anxious pets, and I have dealt with aggressive/reactive behavior. I have experience working with multiple pets at one time, walking up to 3 dogs at one time, and monitoring up to 25 dogs in a play setting at one time. I have administered first aid to dogs with clipped nails, scratched paws, minor bites from other animals, and other various small injuries, as well as sickness. I currently have 2 cats of my own, and I’ve had family pets ever since I was a little kid. At one point there were 7 cats and 4 dogs being taken care of at my home, and I was relied on to help feed, bathe, and walk them. I’m an animal lover. Sometimes I feel I connect better to animals than people themselves! I can bring the energy, but I’m also responsible, patient, and can remain calm when dealing with animals that are in distress or are very hyper. I will always follow how the owner of the pet wants that pet to be treated, trained or disciplined. I currently work full time hospital hours (12 hour shifts, 3x a week) so on days I work it is hard to schedule walks, but I’m available pretty much all day any other days. I will keep my schedule updated so clients can see what days I’m available, as my schedule does tend to change around often. I currently do not have the proper equipment or means to board any animals at the moment. However, I will follow anything the owner needs me to do when it comes to care of their animal in their own home, as well as offering all of the love I can! I will ensure the animals are fed, walked/ let out to play, and bathed if needed.
About: I've taken care of pets, mostly cats, since I was 8. My mom's side of the family were vet techs and farm kids, so I've grown up knowing how to take care. I've also handled multiple special needs animals, both dogs and cats with skin and diet issues. I understand how animals can be with new people, and take the time and energy to let them trust me. I will be working and going to school in the upcoming spring semester. I like to travel so certain dates may be unavailable, however, I love to take care of animals and will dedicate my time to their care. I follow instructions that the owner would like, and supervise their fur-baby to keep them safe from eating things they shouldn't, staying within their allowed area, and most importantly, being able to be themselves and play or relax. I understand how to give medications, even to those pets that do not like taking them. I want to give the care that I would want my pets to have.

I am American Red Cross certified in Cat and Dog First Aid/ CPR, please check my photos for certificate. I have always enjoyed caring for animals since I was a young girl.

Hoping to help out anyone who is in need of dog care. Being a teacher, I am very flexible with hours.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 27 years. Having grown up with pets and assisted neighbors, friends, and family since childhood, I’ve developed a naturally calming presence that animals truly respond to. I specialize in making pets feel secure and relaxed, which is especially helpful for animals that may get anxious when their owners are away. My care is thorough and heartfelt. I’m experienced with everything from high-energy play and long walks to the "spoiled" side of pet life—plenty of back and belly rubs, baths, and quality companionship. I also have extensive experience with cats, including maintaining strict feeding schedules, refreshing water, and ensuring litter boxes are kept perfectly clean. Whether your pet needs an active buddy or a quiet, gentle soul to keep them company, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. I am available for morning and afternoon care to ensure your pets get the attention they need throughout the day. I have a very flexible routine that allows me to prioritize drop-in visits and walks when you need them most. Whether it’s an early morning check-in or a mid-day walk to break up their day, I am consistent, punctual, and dedicated to keeping your pet on their preferred schedule. My goal is to be a reliable and calming presence in your pet's life. When I enter your home for a visit, I prioritize safety and security, making sure your pet feels comfortable and your home stays secure. I am highly vigilant during walks and play sessions, ensuring a stress-free experience for your furry family members. I pride myself on following instructions to the letter—from feeding routines to ensuring your house is locked up tight when I leave.
About: I like to update you on your pet/s every day, how they did and how they played. I also like to send pictures to you of your pet/s and videos for you to enjoy! I'm here to help right when you need me. I enjoy caring for all pet family and updating you with photos or calls of our time together. Reach out for more info. Pet care is heavily dependent on owner instructions and my own care experience. My attention is based on scheduled care and includes daily walks, proper meal preparation and admission, medications as necessary and active/brain play and independent settling.
About: Hello there! I’m a teacher and mom to two fur babies of my own. I’ve had lots of experience as a sitter and pet owner. I use Rover for my own pets so I know the importance of trusting the people you have watching your babies. I send lots of photos and messages so you know your baby is being cared for with the highest attention and quality. Since I am a teacher my weekday schedule is limited to evening drop ins only but available on the weekends anytime. During the summer and most breaks I have open availability for daytime visits. I have been a pet owner most of my life and love my pets like humans! My pets are well taken care of and have routine yearly visits and dental cleanings. I will treat your fur baby with just as much care and love that you do!
About: I’ve had 3 of my own dogs of all sizes and have also had plenty of experience walking and taking care of dogs of all ages for years! I love them more than anything!! I have a very flexible schedule. I currently do school and work from home. Although I do not have a yard, there is a dog park in my building, along with a grooming station/room. If need be, I can also walk your doggies around the area. I am a huge dog lover, and missing my pets from back home! I currently work and study from home so my schedule is very flexible. I can do drop offs or pick ups early mornings or late nights. There is no rush with me. I do not have children or other pets in the home, just friends who stop by daily. Your pet would definitely have my undivided attention.

“Charlayda is so sweet and kind to my pup and I. She was flexible although my plans were all over the place which I appreciated so much. She sent lots of photos and I can tell really gave my pup all the loves he deserves. Thank you so much and will be booking again!”
“The most amazing people we’ve ever worked with. Could not recommend someone better. Highly recommend working with them. Almost hate to leave a 5 star review, don’t want anyone else to steal them away lol! Excellent communication, updates, and keeping our puppy in his routine.”
“My Kaviar enjoys every minute with Wendy and her family. Wendy provides exceptional care and provides photos of Kaviar everyday. When I leave Kaviar with Wendy,I know he will be cared for as I would, and will be cherished as family.”
“10 out of 5!!!!TOP NOTCH! We have boarded our dog once and she was with our other lab. Since becoming an “only” we have not boarded her; when needed she stayed with family. We were very nervous about leaving Scout, especially with a “stranger”. Well, Cindy didn’t feel like a stranger. Scout had an absolute blast. Cindy went above and beyond with our girl. Scout is a ball lover and apparently talked Cindy into playing ball a great deal. 😊. We could not have asked for better communication; we received daily updates which really put our minds at ease. We could have gone to a Rover pet sitter much closer to our home but Cindy’s reviews sold us. The reviews are not exaggerated - she is all that everyone before us has said and then some. She took care of Scout as if Scout were her own fur baby. Will be telling all of our friends about Cindy. We can’t recommend her enough - they aren’t enough stars!! Tina and Phil”

So thankful to have found Debra! She is amazing!!!”
