“Jennifer was a great choice for a staycation for my dog. She was super responsive and I could see how much she loves what she does. My mind was put at ease by using Jennifer and I will definitely be booking with her again the next time we go away! Thank you Jennifer!”
“Jersey loved staying with Robin!! She took amazing care of him while we had a few days away! Let him sleep with her, took him for walks and spent some time gardening in her backyard! Robin has an inviting, warm, clean, beautiful home that any pup would love to visit! Great street views on a comfy ottoman are the added bonus for Jersey! She doesn’t take multiple clients at a time which was comforting for us—although Jersey loves playing with other pups, we don’t know that other pups love playing with him. Thank you for the assurance our baby would be safe and well taken care of while in your care!”
“Kimber has watched my dog more than once, and every time has been wonderful! She is sure to take exceptional care of your pup, my dog has always had a good time there, he will be going back whenever we travel :-)”
“This was our second time trusting Marcela to watch all 3 of our big dogs! (Shes the only person thats ever watched our dogs..ever!) And we are SO happy with her♥️ She sent multiple videos every day, wrote silly things that happened and took super good care of them! They ran and played, met other dogs and she kept them on their regular schedule. We love her!!!!”
“Tara took care of our little girl while we were away. She updated me with pictures daily and she was in good hands. I recommend her. Thank you Tara, looking forward for next time.”
“My pup’s tail wagged with excitement when she recognized she was at Lana’s! Knowing that she was getting lots of snuggles and in a safe and comfortable home while we were away made leaving her for seven days a whole lots easier. She loves having the company of other dogs too! Ty”
“Ollie was well cared for and had lots of fun with Joyce. I will definitely use her again when I need dog sitting! Great communication before and during the stay...Joyce is great!”
“Floyd and his wife did an absolutely amazing job dog sitting for us. This is our first time using Rover.com. The software and process was easy. Floyd sent us pictures nearly every day and kept us posted on our pups. It made our vacation very relaxing knowing our pups were in good hands.”
“I am extremely happy and thankful for this family! They love my Peanut butter like their own. I received pictures daily that were absolutely adorable! We will be returning!”
“Seriously the BEST! Communication is everything when you are away from your furry loved one. Monica is seriously the best at making sure you are informed the entire time. I received so many photo updates! We did an initial meet and greet to make sure my Harlow would react accordingly. All went well and we decided to go ahead and book! Monica sure does have the set up! A guest room just for your furry pet and couch dedicated just for the doggies! Did I mention how clean she keeps everything? SUPERB. A key feature was the dog run on the side of her house which our Harlow loved while visiting. Monica will be our go to dog sitter from here on out. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Harlow.”
“This was our dogs second stay with Britney. Luna loves staying there and Britney is fantastic. She sends pictures and videos along with messages on how everything is going. We have zero concerns leaving our dog there!”
“Jennifer gave me so much peace of mind! Not only was she super sweet with my older, anxious dog but she frequently kept me updated and sent me photos. I could tell she genuinely loves animals and cares for them deeply. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”
“Barbara and Mario did a wonderful job babysitting my two small dogs, Emmy and Hailey, for the weekend. It was such a comfort knowing they were in caring and trustworthy hands. My girls came home happy and well cared for. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust them again!”
“Dana was wonderful from the very start! Very quick and thorough with communication and I immediately knew that she would treat our boy like he was one of her own. Dana was eager to learn all about my dog and she has great knowledge and instincts about how to care for pets. She also sent regular updates and pictures throughout his stay, which was awesome! When we came to pick him up, I could tell that he had already bonded with Dana and really thrived in the environment. We are so happy we found Dana and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing! I could not have been luckier to book her! Every inquiry I made she was very quick to respond on top of that she sent constant text, photo and even video updates during the stay. I would rate her 6 out of 5 stars if I could! Could not be happier!”
“Connie was so wonderful with Zoey! I,loved getting daily pic of my very happy pup and would highly recommend. Connie’s warmth and caring came across right away and she really inspired my confidence before I left.”
“SHERRY. IS. INCREDIBLE. As a first time user, I was a little concerned about the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday and needed a place for my pupper during dinner. Not only did Sherry go above and beyond to answer any questions and allay my concerns, she provided consistent, heartfelt updates regarding my dog and the stay. In the end, everything was perfect, from drop off to pickup, and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone on the fence for Rover overnights and/or dog sitting. Truly a delightful experience. Many thanks Sherry!”
“Kathy was wonderful! Daily updates via email with pictures really helped put my mind at ease about leaving my babies for the first time. They even got a stocking and a toy on Christmas Day! I will definitely use Kathy again and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter.”

About: Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own. I absolutely love and adore my pets and all animals. I have a super sweet, fun loving 70 pound vizsla/labradoodle named Jasper who is amazing and just loves the water, cuddling, playing catch and playing with other dogs. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your dog (dogs) for a day visit or long weekend. Please let know if they do not care for cats so I can keep mine put away. In my 20’s I worked as a dog groomer and boarded animals at my home (sometimes for a month at a time). They became family to me.. Then there is Zeke my 10 year old hairless (declawed) cat. He loves to be out on the enclosed porch mostly but loves cuddles on his terms. If your dog does not love cats I can keep him away, but he will probably stay away on his own. I currently work full time as a nurse but am off no later than 2:00 on Fridays. I am available for the weekends only from 2 PM Friday until Sunday evenings. (Everyone deserves a long weekend away)…I do have a lot of vacation time so there could possibly be other days also, please ask if you need another time or day and I will let you know if I’m available. I will keep my calendar up to date on my availability. I do have a small fenced in yard with plenty of tree cover for shade and a kiddie splash pool to play in. I do allow pets on my furniture and bed if they desire. I will separate the dogs when it is feeding time to assure safety. If your fur baby stays 2 or more days I will give them a bath at the end of their stay if you request it, free of charge let me know if any allergies 🛁
“❤️ Montana was absolutely excellent! She was wonderful with my baby boy Hudson. Sent me pictures every day. She’s also a great communicator and goes above and beyond if needed! This was our first time but not the last! Thank you Montana!❤️”
“Gretchen is amazing! I’m so happy to have found her. My kitties were well loved and cared for. She went above and beyond what I asked for. We are so grateful and hope to have her back next time.”
About: I have not had the opportunity to take care of cats, but I am more than willing and able to give them the care they need based on the owners requirements. I love all animals equally and would indulge in the opportunity to take care of any.
“Catlyn was both professional and friendly. She followed directions to the letter and did a wonderful job keeping me informed daily. My Lily doesn't care for strangers but she really took a liking to Catlyn, that speaks volumes to me. I will definitely hire Catlyn again when the need arises. Thanks for everything Catlyn ❤️🐈⬛”
“Amanda was absolutely fantastic and saved us in a pinch when another sitter stopped responding the day before our trip! She was so accommodating and took amazing care of our two kitties! They loved her right away and she loved them like we would have. She communicated so well and sent photos to update us and was truly pleasant to work with! So glad we found a sitter here we can trust! Will definitely be booking her next time we travel!”
“Frisky looks great in these pictures that Jennifer sent! The updates are so beautiful 😍 we missed our baby and it made it easier to to hear how well he was and see too. Thank you!!!”
“Wonderful with my cat Milo. I was away during Milton and Irina kept me updated the whole time. She evacuated for one or two days herself and let me know everything was fine as soon as she was back. It was Godsend to me knowing Milo was ok and my home made it through with no problem.”
“Denise did a great job in visiting my two cats. She played with them and spoke gently to them. I’m looking forward to Denise having more quality time with them. Thank you so much Denise for watching my kitties.”
“Tracy is an excellent sitter. She showed genuine care for our cats, brought them fun toys, and spent time petting them and playing with them. We loved getting updates and photos from her. When we came back home, we could tell our cats had been happy and safe. We recommend Tracy without a doubt and we’ll definitely book her in the future.”
“I had to stay out of town a bit longer than expected, so I was immediately worried about getting my cat check on. I chatted with Jordan in the morning, and she was over at my house caring for my cat only a few hours later. She sent me photos, and updated me every step of the time she was there. I couldn't have asked for anything more. I'll definitely have Jordon stop by from here on out when I can't be home. Thank you so much ?”
“Hailey is amazing. She was very communicative. She was on time and mostly what I appreciate about Hailey is how much she enjoyed being with my animals. I felt completely comfortable leaving town with Hailey in charge. I will use her again.”
About: I’ve had cats for 26 years. My Jewels lived to be 18 and Rico 20. Currently I have Olive a three years old and Luna who is seven years old. They each have their own personalities, one reserved the other outgoing. They fill our lives with their purring and kneading.
“Thank you Debbie for taking care of our two cats! Debbie was very communicative about where she found them, how much they ate, and even to let me know that one of them was sick while we were away and what she could do. She was very thorough and I would not hesitate to hire her again for a future vacation!”
“I booked Kaitlyn for drop-in visits to look after my elderly kitty-cat while I was away. Kaitlyn was loving and caring toward my pet and was respectful of my house and my space. Kaitlyn really cares about providing good service, and she acted willingly to respond to feedback from me about my needs during the course of my trip. I would book her services again.”
“Lisa is such a sweetheart & did such a wonderful job with Blue! Blue had a great time with her & she clearly cares about animals. She was so kind & would always send photos or videos of our Blue, it was so reassuring to see how happy she was & in good hands while we were away. We would higher her again in a heartbeat & highly recommend such an awesome woman! Oh, she also gives massages which were super awesome!”
“Allie was great. My kitty Suki who has anxiety loved her, played with her and let her pet her. She even took out the garbage for us without me asking. Allie brought in the mail, sent pics of Suki and watered plants too. Excellent! I highly recommend and will ask for her again.”

That way, both you and your furry friend can find the serene home-away-from-home experience you seek while you're apart. My typical day working and homeschooling at home translates to all-day companionship for your pups: they'll never feel alone with me around!

Balancing roles as a full-time mom and a work-from-home professional, your pets enjoy round-the-clock care and company, save for the occasional local errand. Safety remains paramount in our home: pre-arrangement discussions are critical to make sure we're a great fit.

“Robin eagerly welcomed my best little friend into her lovely home and kept me posted on how he was doing throughout the day. She is very kind and attentive. Highly recommend!”
“Koda loved his daycare with Tara. He had so much fun. Tara kept me in the loop all day with pictures and how he was doing. It is obvious she loves the fur babies and she takes very good care of them. 🥰”
“We used Joyce twice while in the area and she was wonderful. I felt safe leaving Kegon in her care. Joyce was quick in responding to my messages and was incredibly friendly. I'd highly recommend Joyce to my family and friends.”
“Sophie's daycare time with Connie went perfectly. Sophie was happy on arrival and, though happy on my return to pick her up, seemed totally content to stay if she needed to. Connie's home is clean and as well-cared for as her canine clients. I'm so glad I found her on Rover and highly recommend her services.”
“Great experience at Brianna’s doggy day care. Orla had lots of fun, Brianna was welcoming, great communication, wonderful experience overall, we will be back for sure.”
About: I've owned dogs & cats my entire life. I helped in my brother's kennel, caring for & cleaning up after pitbulls, so "scary" dog breeds don't seem scary to me. :) I have cared for senior cats & dogs. I have experience in giving both medication, orally & topically. I have 8+ years of personal experience with rats, so I am more then happy to work with rodents & other small mammals! I have plenty of experience cleaning cages. I have experience caring for senior rats, as well as giving oral & topical medications. I have experience keeping freshwater fish. I know how to do water changes, replace filter cartages, vacuum gravel, comb sand, test water parameters, ect. I do not own birds, however, I have pet sat with them before. I currently pet sit for a caique & a macaw regularly. I have experience cleaning cages. I do not have experience giving birds any medication. I have limited experience with reptiles & invertebrates, however, I do not fear any of them. I am willing to learn how to care for both. Pet care is mostly what I do! I live with 4 cats, rats, and fish - If I am not caring for my pets at home, I am caring for pets in another home! I do pet/house sitting for four dogs and two birds at least once a month. I am comfortable staying overnight in a clients house, and if the animals need around the clock care, I can stay in-home without issue. When it comes to caring for other people's pets, I like following their instructions best! I love having rules, times, ect listed out for me. Does your pooch need breakfast at 7am sharp, with a sprinkle of cheese and 30 seconds in the microwave? Does your bird like to watch a sitcom before bed? Does your kitty NEED their favorite pillow fluffed in the evening? Does your older puppy relax best with a warmed up blanket? Well, just let me know and I'll try my very hardest to make sure your best friends are comfortable while you're away. Being away from one another is hard, both on the pets and their loving owners, so I enjoy sending photos of our fuzzy friends to their people.
“Mary was great. She took wonderful care of our Parker each day while we went to the beach and baseball games in Port Charlotte. We will definitely be calling on her next year if we come down for Speing Training.”
About: I have 10+ years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I’m the proud dog mom of three Italian Greyhounds and have experience breeding, raising puppies, behavior training, grooming, exercising, and providing attentive daily care. What sets me apart is that I truly understand dogs beyond basic sitting. I’ve worked with many breeds, from Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd’s to Frenchies, Beagles, Italian Greyhounds, full-size Greyhounds, Goldendoodles, and more, so I’m comfortable adapting to different temperaments, energy levels, ages and stages, and needs. I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged with plenty of play, exercise, and attention while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy, so I make sure each pup gets individualized care, playtime, and a calm, comfortable environment while you’re away. I keep my schedule intentionally limited so every dog gets the attention they deserve, and my availability tends to fill up quickly so early booking is always recommended. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a safe, calm home environment. My three friendly Italian Greyhounds are well socialized and used to being around other dogs. Because of my experience breeding and raising puppies, I’m very attentive to dog behavior and body language and make sure introductions and play are safe and positive. I can crate if needed and always follow the routines, feeding schedules, and instructions that keep your dog happy and comfortable.
“We were very happy with the care Cosmo received from Barbara. She welcomed him into their home and treated him like their own. She’s very friendly and easy to communicate with. I will be using her again when the need arises.”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my family all my life and absolutely love them. I love to get outside and make them active, happy, and healthy. I am looking to pick up extra work and I love animals so if I am available I would love to care for your pet. I am very active and love to play with dogs outside. I would of course always be very careful with pets on a leash and would follow any specific instructions given.
“Jeanne was the absolute best! She welcomed my little guy so enthusiastically into her lovely home and sent photos throughout his visit. Atlas had a great time and got along well with her fur babies. I had no concerns whatsoever. Highly recommend!”
“We are so grateful to have found Taylor to take care of our fur baby Bowser. He has really bad separation anxiety so he can’t be left alone. Taylor made sure he received lots of play, attention, and love. He seemed very happy when we picked him up. She sent lots of photos and was very communicative. We will be calling her again next time we need a sitter 🫶”
“I found out the day before that I needed a sitter for my 8 month old, yet to be neutered, tank of a puppy, Apollo. Having previously left him with only family members, and only a handful of times, we were a little nervous. When we first got there, Apollo immediately seemed to feel comfortable, not even looking back at me. I received photos a few hours in, and when it was time to pick him up, Apollo was trying to climb into a lap (he’s 75 lbs), and was being praised as a love, cuddle bug! Overall positive, seamless experience and I would book again.”
About: My husband & I had a wonderful time with our beloved dogs over the past 16 years. Unfortunately our two seniors recently passed. Both of us grew up with dogs and can’t imagine a life without them, which means we have lots of love and time to give to your furrbabies. We just adopted a very sweet puppy. Peppa does not bark and gets along very well with other dogs. She is very gentle, and sometimes shy, but also very nosy and can’t wait to play with her new friends. We will make sure to do anything we can to make your Puppies as comfortable and happy as our Peppa during their stay with us. We only take one client at the time and up to 3 dogs max from the same household. 🐾 I am home 24/7, which means your furrbaby would never be alone and I can always make sure your pet is happy, loved and safe. We have a large, fully fenced yard that will give your puppy a lot of room to run and play in between walks. Our first priority is that your pet is safe and feels loved. We have used Rover frequently our selves in the past for our doggies, so we know how important it is to know, that your puppy is happy and safe while you are away. We will update with pictures and videos so you can relax and do not have to worry.

“Tara was easy to communicate with and was flexible in scheduling times! She arrived exactly at our coordinated pickup time , sent pix of our pup on his walk and even cleaned his feet before sending him back in the house! I highly recommend Tara for your pups needs!”
“Channing is amazing! My puppy was recently adopted and still very shy and scared of new people, however Channing was so sweet and kind. Definitely will rebook for the days I work!! Thank you Channing!!”
About: Your Pet's Home Away From Home with a Lifetime Animal Enthusiast I'd be honored to welcome your beloved pets into my home! My life has been devoted to animals, starting on a ranch where I gained hands-on experience with everything from horses, dogs, and cats to chickens and beyond. As a retired horse trainer and long-time dog breeder, I bring a wealth of knowledge in animal health, behavior, and communication. I've personally trained service dogs for mobility, and I'm passionate about helping dogs overcome behavioral challenges. With your permission, I can address specific training needs your dog might have, such as potty training, leash manners, or breaking other bad habits, ensuring their time with me is both enjoyable and productive. Rest assured, your pets will be treated as cherished members of my family during their stay. Our home is a calm, adult-only environment, providing a peaceful and safe space for your companions. I'm available at anytime to make sure your pet is well taken care of. I have dedicated my life to animals and I love it. With many years of dedicated experience across a diverse range of animals, I offer exceptional pet care grounded in health, compassion, and understanding. My extensive background includes not only general animal well-being but also specialized expertise in handling animals with specific needs and successfully training dogs and other animals through positive methods. We do not have any small children or any children. Just adults that love animals. I'm committed to ensuring every pet under my care feels loved, safe, and comfortable. My flexible availability means I can accommodate your pets' schedules and individual requirements at any time. For larger companions, I also have several giant crates to ensure their comfort if needed. Dogs will be crated at night only if they need to be. If your dog is potty trained and can be trusted being loose in a house overnight then they will not be crated unless the pet owner wants them to be crated. Pets always have fresh water and are fed as scheduled by the pet owner. We do board cats and they are kept in a seprate area of our home. We have a very large lani and pool. Your pets will never be unsupervised when they are in our pool area. I have a yard but it's in the process of getting fenced. I do have a small fenced area for little dogs. I walk the dogs as many times as they need to, to go potty. I've been told by multiple pet parents that other sitters just put their dogs out in a yard unsupervised and their dogs were attacked by other dogs. I'm always supervising your dogs.
“Norah is truly the best! She goes above and beyond for our boys every single time. She even surprised them with their own balls for the dog park, which just shows how thoughtful and invested she is. Norah is always timely, incredibly communicative, and sends the best photos that clearly show how happy and well cared for our dogs are. We have total peace of mind knowing they’re with her. Thank you, Norah — we’re so grateful to have you!”
About: I have taken care of my best friends dogs for a year, indulging in services like dog walking, feeding them, taking them out for potty and spending good time with them. I have two dogs of my own who are my world. I decided that pet sitting would be a good start to spending more time with animals giving them the love they deserve. My guarantee availability is Fridays and Saturdays. I currently work a part time job at Aldi as a cashier. At the moment I only work two to three days a week at random schedule. I am usually pretty flexible and can make myself available upon request. I am open to walk the dogs, take them out and feed them. I can stay at my clients home if they request and need someone to take care of their pets, spend some time with them and give them love. I am interested in knowing more about your pets before I take care of them. Are they good with other dogs? Do they have any allergies? Are they on any medications or specific conditions I need to be aware of ? Regardless, I am more than happy to taking care of them and will care for them and love them as my own.
About: I am such a happy person who LOVES all animals and the more they play they more excited I am! I am very adaptable to your dog/cat needs. If they like to play, I will wear out every toy they own! If your furry friend likes to lounge around, I am absolutely okay with being a couch potato for the day! I am able to match your dog/cat personality and daily activities and enjoy it every second of the day we spend together! I promise that if you hire me you will see how I get along with your furry family member and all your worries will be set to ease and you will be able to see first hand how well I handle all animals! I am a Nurse who has some extra time on her hands looking to play, walk, or spend quality time with your furry friend while you are away! I have a varying schedule but I am always up front about my availability! I always ask for detailed schedules or information about your pets so I know what they are used to and can keep things the same while you’re gone so it doesn’t feel like anything has changed and can keep their comfort level roughly the same

“Haley was absolutely wonderful! She was punctual, friendly, trustworthy, and kind to my dog. She always took him for the full amount of walk time and was great about letting me know if he went to the bathroom. I would highly recommend her!”
“Christine loves what she does. The dogs recognize it, so do the dog owners. She is very reliable and always keeps me updated. I highly recommend her. She seems to have a natural ability with dogs.”
About: I have 3 dachshunds at home. Two are seniors and one is a puppy. I also cared for my senior cat up until she was 17. 🤍 My animals are my babies. At home, I am described as a helicopter parent...(always hovering) making sure they are happy & safe. I have pet experience with medical conditions such as IVDD, diabetes, cushings, asthma, etc. I am familiar with all of the poisonous plants, foods, toxins in your home and dangerous wildlife in our area. I take the safety of your baby seriously, just as if they were my own. I am new to creating a Rover profile, but not new to pet sitting. I've been watching friends, family & neighbor's fur kids since I was in high school. work from home as a social media manager, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I rarely am ever out of town (away from my kids)- so more than likely I can look after your kids! 🐾🐶🐱 I like to treat animals as if they were my own. How would I want a sitter to be with my baby? Kind, patient, fun, and always safe. I don't mind texting check-in photos or a short summary of my visit. I am easy to communicate with and will be happy to keep a routine and do my best to follow instructions for your kids.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of all different kinds of breeds and have all the time of the day todo so, I truly enjoy them I currently work part time remotely, so therefore my availability and time always there to take care of the animals that I have and love I spend most of my time playing, feeding, walking and lounging around with all different dogs and cats, no matter what their ages or sizes
About: I have experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, ages, and care needs. My experience includes feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering medications when needed, drop-in visits, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every cat is different—some love attention while others prefer space—and I take the time to learn their routines and comfort levels. My goal is always to provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment while treating every cat like part of the family. My boys are now in elementary school, so I have extra time on my hands & wanted to help my husband financially. I also don’t travel much for holidays as I have a large family, so I am around for all your Holiday vacation needs! I follow good instructions, so whatever you say is whatever I do! Guaranteed! I have a big dog and a medium sized dog so I am comfortable with all types & sizes of dogs. I will also leave you a note in regards to everything that happens with your furry love.
“Woohoo cannot relay in words how wonderful Eni is with my dog!!! So caring and competent!! As a hospice nurse I can leave home for 12 hrs and know he is well taken care of.”
About: Hi there! I worked on a ranch for almost 11 years providing care for large animals, that also hosted a huge dog rescue program. I am experienced and confident in administering oral medication, insulin shots, and iv drips. Also, the backbone for behavioral issues I’ve had my fair share of bites, growls, and developed approach for skittishness from working with these rescues from all walks of life (seniors, puppies, abused animals and everything inbetween). My compassion will always win, they are just animals and deserve love! I work from home, enjoy take myself on long walks daily to get my steps in, and live alone with no other animals so I have the full availability and desire to hangout with/care for your pet! I recently moved to the area and really miss the happy chemicals that come with interacting and caring for animals! I of course want my own rescue but the smartest idea for me right now is to offer help to others and get that rewarding feeling through that! I am blessed with the lifestyle to have to the opportunity to give undivided attention and care but I have to admit it can be lonely! I miss having that companionship even if it were for a short walk. I live on the 3rd floor of my apartment complex, with a dog park and trail just outside. The ability to carry your large or little senior up and down. Open to any help I could provide with the enrichment and improve quality of life for your pet! Rates always negotiable:)

“Kimber has watched my dog more than once, and every time has been wonderful! She is sure to take exceptional care of your pup, my dog has always had a good time there, he will be going back whenever we travel :-)”
“This was our second time trusting Marcela to watch all 3 of our big dogs! (Shes the only person thats ever watched our dogs..ever!) And we are SO happy with her♥️ She sent multiple videos every day, wrote silly things that happened and took super good care of them! They ran and played, met other dogs and she kept them on their regular schedule. We love her!!!!”
“My pup’s tail wagged with excitement when she recognized she was at Lana’s! Knowing that she was getting lots of snuggles and in a safe and comfortable home while we were away made leaving her for seven days a whole lots easier. She loves having the company of other dogs too! Ty”
“Ollie was well cared for and had lots of fun with Joyce. I will definitely use her again when I need dog sitting! Great communication before and during the stay...Joyce is great!”
“I am extremely happy and thankful for this family! They love my Peanut butter like their own. I received pictures daily that were absolutely adorable! We will be returning!”
“Seriously the BEST! Communication is everything when you are away from your furry loved one. Monica is seriously the best at making sure you are informed the entire time. I received so many photo updates! We did an initial meet and greet to make sure my Harlow would react accordingly. All went well and we decided to go ahead and book! Monica sure does have the set up! A guest room just for your furry pet and couch dedicated just for the doggies! Did I mention how clean she keeps everything? SUPERB. A key feature was the dog run on the side of her house which our Harlow loved while visiting. Monica will be our go to dog sitter from here on out. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Harlow.”
“This was our dogs second stay with Britney. Luna loves staying there and Britney is fantastic. She sends pictures and videos along with messages on how everything is going. We have zero concerns leaving our dog there!”
“Jennifer gave me so much peace of mind! Not only was she super sweet with my older, anxious dog but she frequently kept me updated and sent me photos. I could tell she genuinely loves animals and cares for them deeply. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”
“Barbara and Mario did a wonderful job babysitting my two small dogs, Emmy and Hailey, for the weekend. It was such a comfort knowing they were in caring and trustworthy hands. My girls came home happy and well cared for. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust them again!”
“Dana was wonderful from the very start! Very quick and thorough with communication and I immediately knew that she would treat our boy like he was one of her own. Dana was eager to learn all about my dog and she has great knowledge and instincts about how to care for pets. She also sent regular updates and pictures throughout his stay, which was awesome! When we came to pick him up, I could tell that he had already bonded with Dana and really thrived in the environment. We are so happy we found Dana and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing! I could not have been luckier to book her! Every inquiry I made she was very quick to respond on top of that she sent constant text, photo and even video updates during the stay. I would rate her 6 out of 5 stars if I could! Could not be happier!”
“Kathy was wonderful! Daily updates via email with pictures really helped put my mind at ease about leaving my babies for the first time. They even got a stocking and a toy on Christmas Day! I will definitely use Kathy again and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter.”
“Donna took excellent care of Smokey. He's a pretty active dog but she said he was a good boy, doesn't always listen but I think they enjoyed having him. She responded when I inquired about him and he seemed happy when we picked him up. I would recommend Donna if you need a pet sitter.”

She provided excellent care and love to the fur babies. So thankful to have a pet sitter that provided the same amount of attention they would receive at home.”
“Linda and her family took wonderful care of our 2 dogs for several weeks. This was the 2nd time we booked with Linda and we appreciate her photo/video updates and the excellent care she gives our dogs, one who has some special needs. She goes above and beyond, even bathing them and grooming them so they were more comfortable in the hot weather. We highly recommend Linda - we know she loves our babies and they are in excellent hands with her!”
