“Jewel was so kind and detailed taking all the info I had for Luna since she is Diabetic and on special diet. Has a fenced in yard and walks the dogs. She brought out her two precious little princesses to meet Luna and they were so adorable. Her detailed text with pics of Luna’s daily events made my day. Thank you so much Jewel. I can see Luna was super relaxed since picking her up and her usual cry whining just didn't happen. It usually takes her three days to get chill again when I leave her. Thank you and your pups for her great stay away from home. 💖 You were the perfect pick for Luna.”
“Awesome experience for Bentley and us! Frances texted us daily and sent us pictures of our little dog. Her home was warm and inviting and she had a huge, fenced in backyard for Bentley to play in. We will most definitely use her in the future!”
“She sent lots of pictures and was very accommodating with sh l schedule for pick up and drop off, as well as a meetup to make sure the dogs got along with her dogs. Plenty of space for the dogs to run around and play outside including a nice shaded area with a koi pond. Thank you for taking care of our dogs while we were away for the weekend.”
“Excellent stay and care for Sweetie 💕 Beth was amazing and very friendly, responsive and took great care of my pup. Additional perk, Sweetie found a new BFF. 100 % recommend”
“Huge thank you to Viktoryia for hosting my anxious little terrier while I was on a business trip. Her dog, Coco, took my dog under her wing. My dog had the run of the house which was wonderful as she insists on snuggling with her humans on couches / beds or wherever they happen to be. Thank you, Viktoryia!”
“James was awesome. He took in our Ellie and treated her as his own!! We relaxed and enjoyed our visit at the beach knowing Ellie was with James and very well taken care of. Lisa E.”

She has several dogs and is well equipped to manage a dog. Was pleasantly surprised how easy the process was and how my Lola enjoyed the stay. Great experience and will definitely use her service again!!”

“Nothing short of amazing. Lori kept in touch with updates and pictures. Our pups we genuinely happy there. Very accommodating, just good people. We will definitely use Lori again!”
“Akira had a wonderful time with Abigail. I got lots of pictures and videos whilst Akiras was there. She was immediately super comfortable and catered to. Akira will definitely be coming back 😊”
“We were so happy with Kendal and Dre. Dexter seemed so comfortable with them and their pup, Zeus. They were excellent keeping us informed with text messages, pictures and videos. Kendal even gave him a goody bag with homemade treats and a toy bone. We have already booked them for another stay next month. Thank you for making us feel comfortable leaving our baby with you both.”
“Marlena was amazing!!! She has a special gift of caring for animals! Our two dogs were so well taken care of. She sent updates with photos consistently throughout their stay. My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving them with Marlena. We will definitely use her again when in the area!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve raised my own dog since she was 2 months old until she was 12.5 and crossed the rainbow bridge in May of 2026. So I understand every stage from puppy energy to senior comfort. I also grew up with family dogs and have even helped two dogs deliver puppies, giving me hands-on experience with newborns, mama dogs, and special care needs. I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. As a bilingual toddler mom with a naturally nurturing style, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Your pet will get kindness, consistency, and the same level of attention I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m a full-time single mom, and my son absolutely adores animals—we spend a lot of time outdoors, going for walks, playing, and staying active. Adding your dog to our routine is easy and enjoyable for us. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m already in a rhythm that allows your pet to get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day. In my home, pets follow a loving and consistent routine. I provide food twice a day (or according to your dog’s usual schedule), plenty of potty breaks, and a safe, cozy space to rest. There’s lots of playtime, outdoor time, and of course plenty of hugs and attention. I make sure every dog feels relaxed, cared for, and included as part of the family. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routine exactly—feeding times, walks, crate use, and any special instructions—so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, and have cared for 4 dogs in my home until. I love dogs, the outdoors, and being active, so dog walking is super fun for me! I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as slower senior pups. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time for your pets! I’m currently available all day (including early mornings) until evening, Monday-Saturday for walks or check-in visits. I currently have Bo, a senior pitbull, who is super chill and has no problems with other dogs. I also recently got a Belgian Malinois puppy named Darth Vader! Mercury, my brother’s 6 year old Australian Cattle dog, loves to play and I take care of him on occasion. We have a large patio and pool that dogs can enjoy laying in the sun or swimming! I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!
“I'm so happy we found Antoinette to take care of our pup. She sent photos and videos to let us know everything was going well. She's quick to respond and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. We've already booked another stay!”

“Christina is amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely rebook with her again! My pets are a little shy and sometimes standoff-ish but they warmed up to her. She took great care of them! I loved getting to see the photos of my pets throughout the weekend. Christina is wonderful!!”
“Emma did a fantastic job. Totally exceeded my expectations and did everything I asked beforehand. The daily updates she provided assured me that my cats were being taken care of.

Perfect for high energy dogs - The Meadows
“I cannot say enough about my experience with Beth and her husband and their home, little dog and cats. I felt so at ease around their kindness. The best part is that my dog was more vibrant and playful after two days with them. They were keen to follow instructions and just be a loving presence for Zushi. That’s what we needed most! I will be booking with them again. And highly recommend them.”
About: I have been caring for dogs both mine and others for 60 years. From puppies to seniors, and special needs.i have always loved caring for animals. I’m retired and have plenty of time to care for your pet most days from 8:00 am to about 4:00 pm. I will make sure they have a good and safe time away from their family. I have a fenced yard and 4 small dogs that love to play with other dogs. I can crate if it is necessary for your little fur baby.
“Jewell is a jewel! She took perfect care of my 15 year-old 10 lb fog. She is attentive, understands dogs, caring, and even after our first visit, I know I can trust her with my little old soul Zorro completely.”
“So grateful to have had our Milo stay in her house. Communication was excellent, and her home—with its backyard—is very cozy. I 100% recommend Yeini for taking care of your pet! Agradecido por recibir a nuestro Milo. Comunicación muy buena y su casa, con patio, muy acogedora. Recomiendo 100% a Yeini por el cuidado de tu mascota.”

I always make sure pets are supervised and cared for in a calm and safe environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special care your pet may need. I take time to build trust with each pet so they feel relaxed and comfortable while you are away. I am attentive to their behavior and needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I also keep pet owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have a small dog, Bichon Frise. She’s 6 years old. Before her I was working a caregiver and always was walking my client’s dogs. I’m currently working from home and have ability to take care of your dog. I live in townhouse at the safe community and it’s easy to walk here I have my baby - Bichon Frise who is 6 years old. She’s very friendly. My backyard is fenced, but it’s just for small dogs.
“Brianna was so great with Fin. He had a long traveling car to Sarasota and was exhausted. Lots of new places for him. She was very good with him which was such a relief for me, as I never left him with anyone before.”
“How excellent and easy it was to find a great sitter for Luna while we were snowbirding in Florida. I could not. have asked for a better pet sitter!! Easy, accommodating, and professional. Luna came home a thrilled and tired girl. Thank you, Antoinette; we look forward to having you watch our girl while we are here.”
“Nicholas is our new favorite sitter! His relaxing easy going personality is a perfect fit for our two pups. I tell them on the way there that they are going to spend the day AT THE GREAT BIG YARD! So much room for activities! So many sniffs and smells and sights and yard to check out. Then, especially since it's summer, plenty of snoozing on the couch or cool tiles. Nicholas has been agreeable with some time changes and is super responsive when I have a question. We're new to Rover and will likely not look any further for a sitter now that we've found Nicholas and The Great Big Yard! Thank you, Nicholas!”
“Callie took great care of our special needs pup. Our golden retriever has epilepsy and she was able to administer his medication properly 5 days in a row. She sent updates and was kind to us and our dog. We would definitely book with her again 😊”
“Amazing experience! Abby accepted a last minute booking and provided great care. Communication was excellent, and my dog came back happy. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: I am happy to provide a cozy and fun spot for your pup to hang out. My Pit mix and I spend a lot of our time in the garden, pool cage, or acre yard. My Pitty is very friendly, she has been purposefully and extensively socialized so that we can do this work together. The atmosphere here is serene and I’d love to share that with more pups in my neighborhood! Currently I work part-time from home and I’m hoping to supplement some lost income with something I enjoy. That will benefit my pup and my neighbors pups! Since I work from home I can offer my services any day of the week for boarding or sitting. I cannot help but empathize with animals. I love making dogs happy, they are such pure souls. While I make a point to set appropriate boundaries and keep an eye on everybody, I believe in leading with kindness. If you choose to have me stay at your home I am happy to do some cleaning or light chores for you while I am there.

“Nevaeh was great. Extremely reliable and consistent. She helped us for a week for morning and afternoon dog walking/feeding. She has a positive personality and our dog responded very well to her. Highly recommend!”
“Sofia is fantastic to work with. She was very flexible when I arranged an initial meeting with her and she was very prompt. She was also very sweet with my dog. I look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Emma is wonderful! She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She’s punctual and responsive! While we were gone our dog had a little accident and she cleaned it up for us and made sure there was not a stain left on our new rug! We would definitely recommend Emma and plan to use her services again!”
“Ashton was so nice and patient with my dog, he is very anxious and not always the friendliest but she did a great job with Apollo, and Apollo seemed to also be very confortable around her, we will continue to use her services as we were very pleased!!!😄”
“Jewell was absolutely amazing with my dogs! 🐾 She cared for them like they were her own and kept me updated the whole time. My pups were happy, calm, and clearly adored her. I highly recommend Jewell to anyone looking for a loving, reliable pet sitter!”
About: I have taken care of pets personally since I was 10 years old. I currently have a cat that I personally medicate daily. My experience watching pets spans from house sitting large dogs to cats. I can walk, feed, and medicate both cats and dogs. Additionally, I have volunteered at both cat and dog shelters throughout my life. I have extensive experience with animals. I make it a point to care for pets as if there owners never left making them feel comfortable and cared for. I do work full time outside of rover which requires me to be gone for working hours. On weekdays I am away no more than 8 hours and on weekends I try to be gone less than 4 hour increments. I dog sit because I love animals. Please contact me if you are okay with these restrictions. Currently I am working during the week but have availability over the weekends and Thursdays! I am flexible depending on how far the location is from my home and job! It is important to keep pets environment clean and safe, so I always make it a point to keep things tidy. I ensure that the home will look exactly like the owner has left it and that their pet is well cared for. In the event of accidents, I have no problem cleaning up the mess and bathing the animal if necessary. Please just leave instructions on how you would like the cleaning and bathing handled!
About: I’ve spent the last 15+ years caring for dogs — from my own family pets to friends’ and neighbors’ pups. Over the years, I’ve helped care for dogs of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. When my family got a puppy five years ago, I helped with basic training and routines, so I understand the patience and consistency that takes. I’ve also cared for older dogs who needed a little extra attention, including giving medications and making sure they stayed comfortable and happy. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and treat every one like my own. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or just some extra love and playtime, I make sure each dog feels safe, cared for, and loved. I work from home as a graphic designer, which gives me a really flexible schedule. I love taking breaks throughout the day to get outside, enjoy some sunshine, and go for walks — and having a dog along makes it even better! It’s the perfect balance of work and fresh air, and I always make sure each walk or visit fits smoothly into my routine so your pup gets my full attention. When I’m visiting a client’s home, I always make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for in their own familiar space. I take time to follow each pet’s usual routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles — so they feel secure and loved while you’re away. At home, I have a fenced yard and a safe, pet-friendly environment, which means visiting pups can enjoy fresh air and playtime when needed. My priority is always safety, consistency, and making sure every dog feels happy and relaxed.
“This is our second booking with Alexi. She does a fantastic job and treats our dog like he is her own. She keeps us updated on how he is doing while we are away which is a relief. I highly recommend her.”
“Ellen is great! Super conscience and thoughtful- she comes prepared with her own poop bags, a portable water bowl and bottled water for a break for the pups in this FL heat. Much appreciated. Ellen filled in while our regular walker was unavailable this past week and both my labs loved her and enjoyed their morning walks with her. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need a walker and highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’ve raised puppies—like my sweet girl River, who I had from 8 weeks old to 3 years—I’ve grown to love the rhythm and bond that comes with dogs at every stage of life. What sets me apart is a deep sense of patience, attentiveness, and love that comes from years of hands-on experience. I’m especially comfortable with routines, emotional needs, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, mellow, senior, or somewhere in between, I show up with calm energy, genuine care, and a heart full of love for every pup I meet. I currently work remote so I have the flexibility to go on walks during the afternoon, evening, early morning or whenever they need to go out! I’m currently in an house with no other pets. I have plenty of room for them to hangout and feel safe. I’ll make sure they get lots of cuddles and walks.
About: Animals have been the center of my world for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, and bunnies, caretaking has always been second nature to me. As a former teacher, I am now leaning fully into my true passion, and bringing comfort and happiness to pets gives me so much genuine joy. Whether your family member is a high-energy pup, an independent cat, or a gentle senior who needs a patient touch and daily medication, I treat them with the exact same structure, love, and respect I would give my own. I can't wait to keep your furry best friends safe, happy, and thoroughly spoiled while you're away! Because my other part-time commitments total only 6 hours a week, my schedule is incredibly flexible, leaving me with plenty of open time to focus entirely on caring for your pets! Here is exactly when I am briefly away each week: Weekday Evenings (2 total): At a gym, I coach a few adult workout classes in the evenings. Sunday Mornings: I teach Sunday school to preschoolers for a brief session. Outside of these short windows, my days are completely open. This minimal schedule allows me to offer highly attentive, consistent care, adapt easily to your pet's normal routine, and provide plenty of companionship throughout the day! Whether welcoming a pet into my home or staying at yours, safety and clear structure are my top priorities. My home is a pet loving environment shared with my friendly dog and two cats. To ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable, I utilize sturdy pet gates to easily separate animals for quiet time or feeding, and I am more than happy to accommodate crating upon request. Because my part-time jobs take up only 6 hours a week, pets in my care receive constant supervision and a highly consistent routine. As a former educator, I am meticulous about following your exact instructions, maintaining strict safety boundaries, and keeping you updated with photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are safe, respected, and thoroughly loved.
About: 25 years of paws-on experience: Keeping your cats cozy and your dogs active—just like my own energetic Brittany! I've worked with puppies, as well as senior dogs, and love them all! Whether you need a daily power-walk or a weekend cuddler, I’ve got you covered. I currently work from home and spent time actively outdoors daily with my pup! We take morning, noon, and evening walks. Your dog can join my energetic Brittany Spaniel for a fun, socialized neighborhood adventure—great for 'social butterflies' who love to play as they walk. If your pup prefers a slower pace or one-on-one attention, I offer dedicated solo walks to ensure they get my undivided focus and care. When you hand over the leash or the keys to your home, you need absolute peace of mind. My 25 years of experience means I don't just love animals—I know how to keep them safe. From managing the unpredictable energy of puppies to ensuring a secure, stress-free environment for seniors and cats, I treat your pet's well-being as my ultimate responsibility. I don't currently have a yard, so spend a lot of time interacting with my babies outside on a leash or at my neighborhood dog parks with pups I know and trust.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, always at least 3 at a time and all sizes and shapes. What else to say… I just love dogs. 😊 I’m working nighttime and ready to take care of your pet every day after 9 am. I can come morning and/or afternoon, once or twice a day. I will come and look around first to make sure it’s clean and I will check the water and the food. Then I will take your pet or a walk and play a bite with his own toys and I’ll have some with me.
About: I am a lover of all animals, furry, feathered & scaly. Seriously, ALL animals! I’m that lady that will stop to assist a turtle crossing the road. I’ve volunteered to rescue injured birds while at the beach, saved a green anole lizard from a hard freeze, fostered close to a dozen cats til they found their fur-ever homes, rescued a baby red-eared slider turtle the size of a quarter from the middle of the road and raised him to be happy and healthy until he was big and strong enough to be safely returned to the pond. I have no fear of animals. I truly understand and listen to them and know how to read their body language. I often understand animals better than people ☺️ I will always go out of my way for animals. I’m not talking about just wanting to stop and pet every dog or cat I see and give it hugs and kisses…I definitely do! ….but truly doing whatever I can to better their lives. I got my first cat when I was 7 years old, and since then have personally rescued and loved more than 20 kitties, and 2 dogs. I’ve owned and maintained multiple freshwater aquariums. Cared for birds, lizards and snakes. I have experience with dog and cat training, solving behavioral issues, and administering medicine whether it be a pill or injections. I have a very flexible schedule. I host music, bingo, and trivia nights a couple days a week around town. I also work as a stage hand, setting up lighting sound, and sets for concerts and events. Several times a year I work at our local Renaissance festivals. In between all of that and caring for your fur babies, I’m also an artist. I’m not able to board animals in my home unless in very specific circumstances due to the size of my space and the other animals in my home. I have four cats of my own and they’re my life and my whole world, but I will give your fur babies, the same love and attention that I give to my own.
“Jose and Alexis are AMAZING. If I could give 10 stars I would. This was my first time using Rover and I have to admit, I was very hesitant to let strangers into my house and more importantly let them be alone with my dog who is a very shy and timid rescue. I expected the worst. Boy oh boy was I wrong. Jose and Alexis were BEYOND accommodating. The first day they came over to start a walk, my dog was terrified and wouldn't approach or leave with them. Jose and Alexis were so communicative about the situation and sat at home for 90+ minutes doing everything they could to get Layla comfortable with them. It worked, above and beyond. The next 2 days, they came by and everything went very smoothly. Lots of pics, videos and communication, before, during and after their walks/runs. It's hard to articulate how great this experience was and we will be enlisting Jose and Alexis' services moving forward for any and all things pet care related. I trust them completely and give them my highest recommendation.”
About: I'm the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, a shelter foster volunteer, and a proud cat mom to a very opinionated Siamese named Mimi. I've fostered four puppies with medical needs, so I'm comfortable with extra care, medication routines, and lots of patience. Whether your pet is a zoomie-powered puppy, a senior looking for a comfy nap spot, or a cat who demands attention on their own terms, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. Plenty of cuddles, playtime, photo updates, and treats (if approved by their humans!) included. I graduated from Vanderbilt for my master degree in May 2025, I work fully remote for a PE company so I will be at home all the time. My partner & I moved to Sarasota because of his job changes. We have a cute cat named Mimi. We are a new happy family. Me and my partner live in a large 2b2b apartment, along with our cat Mimi. We have a large dog park in the community with good privacy and safety. We live very close to water and trails. I’d also love to make sure they have enough exercise and water & food.
About: I have a 11 year old Aussiedoodle who is full of energy, character, and bouncy. We both like to stay active whether that is going for a run or long walk, attend local events, explore new areas, play with toys, continuous enrichment and training. I would like to offer my time to care for dogs when their owners are away on vacation or just need someone to check in on their fur baby. When you leave your fur baby with me he or she will be in the best care and treated as if they were my own. I work remote Monday to Friday with a flexible schedule that I can rearrange or drop in your home between meetings while caring for your dog. I will text you upon arrival and text you upon departure as I am strictly in your home for your dog’s needs, play time, feeding, and walking. I will send you pictures throughout the day and/or when I drop in.

About: I've always had a passion for animals. My friends and family would rely on me to walk, feed, and dog-sit their pets. I love doing it and meeting new fur babies. If needed, I can administer any oral medication. I'm good with any age/size group of dogs. Since growing up I have had big and small dogs from puppies to seniors I’m currently working part-time. I’m available Monday through Thursday anytime after 11-4pm. But, I am quite flexible if you need me for a later time, if something were to come up on your end. I can drop-in, play, and walk your pet to make sure they are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to message me on the rover app if you have any questions or concerns. I'm an active person who loves to run. I have two rescued chihuahua mixes named Loki & Thor. I love going on long walks with them. I can play with/feed/walk with your fur baby. Whatever you need, I would love to accommodate something that works best for everyone.

“We were so happy with Kendal and Dre. Dexter seemed so comfortable with them and their pup, Zeus. They were excellent keeping us informed with text messages, pictures and videos. Kendal even gave him a goody bag with homemade treats and a toy bone. We have already booked them for another stay next month. Thank you for making us feel comfortable leaving our baby with you both.”
“Marlena was amazing!!! She has a special gift of caring for animals! Our two dogs were so well taken care of. She sent updates with photos consistently throughout their stay. My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving them with Marlena. We will definitely use her again when in the area!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve raised my own dog since she was 2 months old until she was 12.5 and crossed the rainbow bridge in May of 2026. So I understand every stage from puppy energy to senior comfort. I also grew up with family dogs and have even helped two dogs deliver puppies, giving me hands-on experience with newborns, mama dogs, and special care needs. I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. As a bilingual toddler mom with a naturally nurturing style, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Your pet will get kindness, consistency, and the same level of attention I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m a full-time single mom, and my son absolutely adores animals—we spend a lot of time outdoors, going for walks, playing, and staying active. Adding your dog to our routine is easy and enjoyable for us. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m already in a rhythm that allows your pet to get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day. In my home, pets follow a loving and consistent routine. I provide food twice a day (or according to your dog’s usual schedule), plenty of potty breaks, and a safe, cozy space to rest. There’s lots of playtime, outdoor time, and of course plenty of hugs and attention. I make sure every dog feels relaxed, cared for, and included as part of the family. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routine exactly—feeding times, walks, crate use, and any special instructions—so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, and have cared for 4 dogs in my home until. I love dogs, the outdoors, and being active, so dog walking is super fun for me! I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as slower senior pups. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time for your pets! I’m currently available all day (including early mornings) until evening, Monday-Saturday for walks or check-in visits. I currently have Bo, a senior pitbull, who is super chill and has no problems with other dogs. I also recently got a Belgian Malinois puppy named Darth Vader! Mercury, my brother’s 6 year old Australian Cattle dog, loves to play and I take care of him on occasion. We have a large patio and pool that dogs can enjoy laying in the sun or swimming! I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!
“I'm so happy we found Antoinette to take care of our pup. She sent photos and videos to let us know everything was going well. She's quick to respond and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. We've already booked another stay!”
“Mylena is amazing! My dog Tessa has never been around children and let her know I was worried about that and she put me at ease the morning of drop off. This was my first time putting my animal in boarding before. Mylena texted me EVERY day with pics and updates. My heart broke leaving her for 2 weeks, but I knew she was in great hands. I will ALWAYS go back when I need a pet sitter. Thank youuuuu so much for making my girl feel right at home. Highly recommend!!!!!!!”
“Meghan is very reliable and trustworthy. My dog is a chihuahua and had not been around big dogs in a home before. She came back without a scratch. I loved the videos Meghan sent and I could tell she enjoyed Lilas visit and Lila was taken care of.”
“Audrey and Karson were awesome! They took such great care of our pup while we were away and made sure to send pictures and updates. We would be more than happy to have Boomer stay with them again!!”
“Nicholas was so awesome with my skittish girl. She takes a while to warm up to people but he didn’t give up and gained her trust quickly on our weekend away. He shared so many photos and videos to keep our minds at ease. Great sitter!!!!”
“We were thrilled with the level of love and attention our senior lab Cooper received during his stay with Tina. She was a super communicator and sent lots of great pictures and videos of his stay as well as gave thorough details of how he did while he was there. Bonus, Cooper's long lost twin is her dog Tahoe :) they had the best time together and should we have the need for a dog sitter for Cooper again, we won't hesitate to contact Tina. If I could give 10 stars I would! Thanks again :)”

About: I am happy to provide a cozy and fun spot for your pup to hang out. My Pit mix and I spend a lot of our time in the garden, pool cage, or acre yard. My Pitty is very friendly, she has been purposefully and extensively socialized so that we can do this work together. The atmosphere here is serene and I’d love to share that with more pups in my neighborhood! Currently I work part-time from home and I’m hoping to supplement some lost income with something I enjoy. That will benefit my pup and my neighbors pups! Since I work from home I can offer my services any day of the week for boarding or sitting. I cannot help but empathize with animals. I love making dogs happy, they are such pure souls. While I make a point to set appropriate boundaries and keep an eye on everybody, I believe in leading with kindness. If you choose to have me stay at your home I am happy to do some cleaning or light chores for you while I am there.
“Leslie watched our sweet Remi girl who was only 13 weeks old. She hadn’t had all of her shots yet, so we were nervous to board her publicly. Taking her to Leslie, she was able to socialize with not just her two dogs but with tortoises, a parrot, and chickens! Our puppy also discovered that she loves swimming Leslie allowed her to swim in their pool. It felt like Remi was welcomed into a family and not boarded up all weekend! Thank you Leslie!”
