He was perfectly calm upon his return home and we could tell he received expert care. Thank you Kaitlyn & Andrew!”

“Patti was wonderful with our 2 dogs! Her communication with us during our trip was so appreciated. She sent daily updates, photos and videos, which went a long way to ensure us that our pets were cared for with as much attention to detail as we would give ourselves. This made our trip so much more enjoyable and stress-free. I would most definitely recommend her for pet boarding. She’s absolutely wonderful!”

From the very beginning, she was extremely kind, communicative, and flexible, which made the whole experience completely stress-free for me. She kept me updated with messages and photos, and I could tell Cooper was happy, comfortable, and well loved the entire time he was with her. It’s not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Emma made it effortless with her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals.

We'll definitely be booking with Christa if we need a sitter again.”

“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.”

“Heather has been a phenomenal caretaker. Going above and beyond to take care of my cat and even check in on my other pets despite it not being a requirement. From the moment of our meet and greet, Heather has asked questions so she could ensure my pets were at their at-most comfortability while we were away. She gave thorough reports and photos so we were always aware of how our pets were doing and anything abnormal she encountered. I feel good knowing that anytime I need to go out of town in the future, I can look to Heather to take care of my animals.”


“Hailey was so amazing with our two kitties! I highly recommend you book with her if you want your fur babies to receive excellent care while you’re away. The booking process was smooth due to Hailey’s kindness, professionalism, and flexibility. Thank you again!!”

“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! 🩷💕”

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!”

About: Boarding: Dogs must be crate trained and vaccinations up to date. Must be kid friendly and do well with large dogs. I have a large, shaded back yard where we can play with toys or fetch. Walk around the quiet neighborhood or take a nap and cuddle. I have an active golden doodle who can’t wait to have a play buddy. I will happily take your dog on walks, play their favorite game and keep a structured routine if needed. Administer topical, injection or oral meds. Meet and greets preferred prior to care. I am currently working from home and have a large shaded yard. Which means potty breaks and outside play and relax time are always available. I will make sure your pets schedule is followed so you can be sure your pet will have fun and be cared for while you are away. My home is doggie safe. Minimalistic feel with little to no clutter. Space for your dog to stretch out and relax. Separate room with crate for sleep and/or alone time if needed. If I leave the house crate trained dogs can safely stay in crate with water and food. Feedings can be done separate if needed. Please bring leash, water and food bowl, and favorite treats. Do not bring toys because they will be enjoyed and destroyed by my dog.
“Cookie had the best time with Maria! She was really nice and made us all feel very confident about leaving him in her house (which is super nice and clean and super pet -friendly) She sent me pictures and videos of Cookie frequently and sent me updates all the time and I could see from the videos that he felt right at home.We can’t wait to book house sitting and boarding again 😊”

“Kaitlyn and Andrew were great with Ruthie. From pics, I could tell Ruthie had a blast and was well taken care. Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times”

About: For 17 years I have been taking care of dogs (really animals of all kinds, shapes, and sizes) both of my own and for others too. There has never been a point in my life that I have not had a dog. Right before I was born, my parents got a beagle that I grew up with. I started taking care of her at a young age (I’d say even later than 17 years ago, just not notable enough to count for it) when she needed special baths for her skin condition, treatments for her ear infections, and catering to her broken arm after getting run over by a car. Before she passed, we got a husky. I helped train (on and off leash commands), groom, trim his nails, and learned how to speak husky. He was a very loved hand full. I learned so much from him because of all the trouble he made from running away, eating glue, chewing up the entire house… you name it, he did it. Through these lessons I have learned not only how to retain my patience and grace, but also how to be a beacon of support and reservoir of love for all fur babies. Nevertheless, when he got older, I gave him shots for his hip dysplasia and ensured he was most comfortable until the day my sister and I sat in the room with him on his way up to doggy heaven. Today, I have a great pyrenees who is a bundle of joy. Again, I have trained her, happily cater to her persistent anxiety--especially with thunderstorms--ensure she is exercised, groomed, and feeling loved. Currently I am working part-time and most of this is at home doing online research for school. Pet care is my daily routine anyways and I have a partner who often stays home to take care of our pup. He certainly supports me needing to fill my cup with more love in my heart from interacting with animals. Nevertheless, I love to help people out. I find that having a good, stable community is the most precious thing we can have as people. It takes a village and I am happy to be apart of that village. I am happy to make any accommodations possible to help you and your fur baby feel the most comfortable with my care. Upon your request to book me, we will go over the requirements of their boarding or my visit(s). You let me know what I can do to help and what you feel most content with.
“Marisa and her family are the best! We felt totally comfortable leaving Zoey in their care. Our anxious dog had a great day. We.look forward to more visits! Thanks, Marisa, for the pictures and videos throughout the day. We appreciate you!”

“As a first-time dog owner, I wasn't sure what to expect from a dog sitter. The moment we walked into Maria's home our dog (who barks at EVERYONE) didn't make a sound, I knew we were in good hands. That alone gave us so much reassurance that he was with the right person. Maria was professional, caring, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her, and we'll definitely be using her services again!”


“Wendy was very good with communication before and during my pup’s visit with her. She sent pictures while he was in her care and he seemed to have a fantastic time with her. My boy has a lot of energy and he was ready for rest after we got home, so I know she spent time playing with him❤️”

“Carolyn took great care of my Dustin boy!! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day! Will definitely be using her again to watch my sweet boy. Thank you!”

“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.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and even horses since childhood. Friends, family and neighbors have entrusted me with their fur babies, a privilege which I take very seriously. I enjoy spending time with all animals, whether that be playing, walking, bathing, feeding, or afternoon napping. I work full time Monday through Friday, and have the option to work from home on a weekday if needed. I am available for boarding Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and for all other services Monday through Friday after 5:00pm and all day Saturday and Sunday. I live in a house in a safe, small neighborhood with sidewalks and have a large backyard. I can easily crate if needed and provide the care and services accordingly based on each clients’ requests.
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.
“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.”

“Catherine was great! Responsive, attentive and so kind to our pup! She was punctual and very easy to work with, would definitely recommend and use again for future bookings. Billie was a happy and tired girl, she enjoyed the walks and playtime together.”


“Jen was great to have just down the road. She responded quickly and even popped over for an introduction visit which was very professional. I know my dog was in good hands with Jen. I plan to continue to work with her in the future”

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.
About: We are a family of 3 people who really want to add a dog as a family member but unable to take on the financial responsibility at this time so this might be the next best thing, just genuine love for your pets, no special skills at this time.

I'm just not ready to find my forever dog yet- My son is now 11 and daughter is ready to turn 9 right after Christmas and we have loved having your dogs as a part of our family while you're away! In my home, treating them like our own part of the family. We are a playful family and we like getting out of the house on walks and do things like Riverside Arts Market and the beach. In your home, will follow your guidelines and be just as loving and attentive

“I just moved back to Jax and needed to find a new pet sitter for my toy poodle. I was scheduled to be out of town for 4 days and I had anxiety about leaving him with someone he was unfamiliar with for that amount of time. I downloaded the Rover app and Layda literally fell into my lap. Her reviews were great and her availability was open. I reached out and she was immediately responsive. She offered to give me a call to walk me through how the app works and we talked in depth about my dog. She asked all kinds of questions and gave super helpful suggestions. Before I completed my booking, I asked if we could do a meet & greet so that her and Jinger could meet and she happily agreed. They hit it off perfectly. 2 days later I dropped Jinger for his extended vacay and I could tell my baby had the time of his life. Layda sent pictures and videos multiple times throughout the day and she was always responsive when I checked in. She allowed him to be comfortable and feel at home and I really appreciated that. Based on my first (of many more to come) booking, I can tell that Layda truly cares about what she does and thats a great feeling as a pet mom.”

“Alysia has taken care of our Frenchy several times and she has been very caring and diligent. Our dog feels comfortable at her home. She is highly recommended.”

I’m a great balance between active and just keeping company - from puppies/kittens to senior pets I work weekday mornings but am free after 1pm daily and all day Wednesday and Sunday — plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or just hanging out with pets. I live in a pet-free apartment in a safe, walkable neighborhood with access to a nearby dog park. I share the space with a pet-loving roommate, and we both enjoy spending time with animals. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, relaxed, and cared for with lots of attention and companionship.
“Em was great! My dog is currently in her care for another stay while I’m away and i am totally at ease to know my dog is in the care of such a tentative person! Would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Debra was wonderful. I got several updates daily of my pups activities and she was very happy and played a lot. Will definately have Debra watch my dog next time I am out of town!”

“I could not have asked for a better caregiver for my dog! Ingrid really made our fraidy-pup feel at home away from home! I could tell how much fun our dog was having in the photos and video communication and even when we picked her up, I could tell she felt really comfortable there! 10 stars if possible!! Will definitely book again!!”

“We are so happy with our decision to leave George with Katie while we were overseas for our wedding for 2 weeks. It was obvious he was extremely happy in her care and alongside her dog, Maggie! She shared pictures and updates throughout the stay to keep us updated. It was nice knowing our dog George was having his own mini vacation while we were away missing him. 10/10 and will book with Katie again.”

“Kira was awesome with my lil baby Draco. He’s a Rottweiler lol but that’s what he is to me and how she treated him which I really appreciate. I felt comfortable being out of town with the updates she was sending me and updates! I’ll definitely be using her again in the future :)”
