“Kayla is the best. She showed patience and understanding for my furbaby whom never stayed with anyone before. He received lots of love and got a chance to have a play date.”
“Once again Jennifer and her family did a wonderful job of taking care of my dogs. I always have complete confidence leaving my dogs with Jennifer. I even worry they might not want to come home with me. Lol I highly recommend Jennifer for all your boarding needs.”
“Debbie was great....she gave us regular updates on Roodles. She took very care of our dog....we were very impressed. She even had a meet and greet in the beginning to meet roodles....we felt very comfortable leaving Roodles with her. Our dog is scared of fireworks and Debbie comforted her and got her through it on NY eve”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! Wags and Whiskers Play and Stay was an absolute blessing to me during an unexpected emergency trip out of town. From the very beginning, Sandra and Mark made me feel completely at ease leaving my dog, Lex Luther in their care—and that peace of mind is priceless. They went above and beyond! I received regular updates, including videos and pictures, which meant so much to me. It was clear Lex wasn’t just being “watched,” but truly cared for, loved, and engaged. They played, had treats, and my dog looked comfortable and happy the entire time. When I picked Lex up, I could tell he had been well taken care of—calm, content, and not stressed at all. That speaks volumes! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals, I highly recommend Wags and Whiskers Play and Stay. I will definitely be using them again!”
“Olivia was great, I left my miniature schnauzer with her for a week. She sent pictures every day of her where she looked like she was having a great time with her two small dogs. I would definitely recommend Olivia to take care of your pets, she did an awesome job.”
“A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Andrea & family were incredible. First time leaving my fur baby with someone other than family. Certainly I was a bit nervous. I chose Andrea based on her reviews and genuine smile on the profile. She lived up to expectation and the reviews. Daily photo and updates were provided without request. She even bathe my boy, sent him home so fresh and so clean. I am certain I will be booking in the future, Thank you again for your warmth and care for Pooh! :-)”
“Alona is absolutely amazing!! Very attentive and detailed. She communicates well with updates and she really put my mind at ease when I needed a dog sitter in a clutch. My 🐕 was so happy when I picked him up that he didn’t want to leave 😃 I will definitely call her to dog sit again. Thanks Alona!!!”
“Kara was amazing!! I know we made a great choice choosing her to watch over our fur baby while we were away. She communicated everyday with pictures and videos letting us know how he was doing. We will definitely be booking again with her real soon. Thank you for everything!! I would give 100 stars if I could.”
“Ashley has been absolutely fantastic throughout the boarding process! We really appreciate the communication, photos, and help Ashley has been able to provide. Went above and beyond with last minute reservations, extensions, and bathing requesting for our dog. Overall perfect experience, thanks for everything!”
“Megan and her family were absolutely phenomenal with Remington. The attention given to our dog was incredible and our feeding and care instructions were followed to a T. We received pictures and updates multiple times daily with any and all information we asked for. I would 100% book again and refer to a friend.”
“Mary Grace was a godsend to our family. Our beloved and notoriously mischievous 11 year old /70lb shepherd mix is prone to stress and can’t be comfortably boarded in a facility. He is also getting older, so he struggles with separation anxiety and requires frequent walks and intellectual stimulation. Mary Grace was a perfect fit. She is extremely competent and conscientious. She met both Ranger’s needs as a full time companion (walks, feeding, engaging) and my needs as a concerned parent (pictures, updates, etc). It’s the first time we’ve traveled in years that I was not constantly worried about Ranger. I would not hesitate to book with her again or to recommend her to others. She is amazing and I’m so grateful for how well she cared for our boy.”
“Samantha was absolutely great! I’m a first timer and she made me feel at ease from the start about leaving my dog with her. Will definitely book Samantha and her wonderful family again!”
“keshia was so attentive and kind! she asked all of the necessary questions to make sure she could give my two dogs the most comfortable stay possible and kept me updated with pictures throughout my whole vacation. it was such a huge relief to know my babies were safe and in good hands while i was out of town. would definitely recommend to others in need of pet sitting services. thank you keshya! ☺️”
“Gloria was wonderful with our senior dog. She is warm and friendly and very caring to my furbaby sending multiple photos during her stay. Highly recommend and will book with her again!”
“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”
“Anna and her family were great! My dogs had a great time in their big back yard and with their dog. When I returned from my trip, my dogs were happy to show me around what they had been up to and I could tell they were well taken care of. Thank you Anna!”
“I am so happy I found Carly. I was going out of town for a 3 day getaway and my dog sitter cancelled the week of. Carly was thankfully able to take my fur baby and give her 1 on 1 attention! She eased my anxiety with daily updates and made sure my princess returned to me tangle free! We will definitely use Carly in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Alexis, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I know they aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and cuddly, or somewhere in between. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and to care for them just as I would my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages to give you peace of mind. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a helping hand! I'm a recent college graduate so I am home fulltime and have more than enough time available to love on your fur baby! There is nothing better than having furbaby love! I do not have a fenced in backyard but will be more than happy to take your furry baby on a walk, welcome them into my apartment and/or drop in and see how they are doing!
“Samantha is awesome!!! We did a meet and greet prior to me booking her for daycare. She’s very professional. She verified his shots were up-to-date, and asked detailed questions concerning his care. This was the first time we booked with her and she sent pictures and updates immediately, which set me at ease. Chase enjoyed his stay with her. He was very comfortable with her and developed an immediate attachment to her. He had a blast. We are definitely using her again. She’s fantastic. Thank you Samantha for going above and beyond to make us both feel at ease.”
About: I have grown up with many animals. I have had all different types of breeds from a collie, chihuahua, husky, to a Great Dane. I have 2 of my own fur babies who are so sweet & playful. I’m a caring, reliable pet lover who understands how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I’m here to give your pet the care and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. I have let sit for many families before and have never had any issues!! I am a stay at home mom with my two littles so I am always home! I do have 2 dogs of my own so we go for walks, the dog park, or just play fetch out back. I am always here to keep an eye on the pups and make sure they’re well taken care of. My apartment has a dog park where your fur baby can play! I also have 2 dogs of my own to help keep your baby entertained. I care for pets in my home the same way I care for my own—with patience, love, and attention to detail. I keep a clean, pet-safe space and make sure each pet gets personalized care, whether that’s sticking to their routine, extra playtime, or just a cozy place to rest.
“Mary Grace is an exceptional pet sitter! She agreed to care for my 2 dogs at the last minute and was flexible with my work schedule. She wasn’t put off by my long work day of 12 hour shifts. She kept me informed throughout the day with pics and texts on how well my puppy kids were doing. Though my one dog has some behavioral special needs, Mary Grace was confident in her skills to care for my dog both professionally and lovingly. I highly recommend Mary Grace!”

“Robin was amazing. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind. My puppy was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter.”
“Although this was just a test run, Nikki, Ben and their family were very welcoming. They took they time to explain how their pet sitting worked, introduce their family and furry kids, and help me work out other times that they could watch Bear. Bear enjoyed his day care day very much and was exhausted from all the play when got home. Looking forward to the next stay.”
“Keysha did an amazing job watching my cat, Chocolate Chip, for daycare. She was attentive and caring. Chocolate Chip came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend her services!”
About: Please take a moment to read this before you send a doggy daycare request: **Doggy Daycare/walks/Pack walks** Any pups that are dog friendly and trained on and off leash can attend. Your pup joins other well mannered pups on a weekly walk/adventure. We explore new places, practice proper socialization skills, and practice real world training experiences, This is offered Monday-Friday and a minimum of two days per week is required. Drop off/pick up services included! If your pup is not already trained and they have no major behavioral issues I offer a day train where they join us in pack walks and I focus on their training. - Growing up I always had a cat or dog around. I have also taken care of countless of dogs and cats along the way- whether they were a stray I picked up, a family’s, friend’s, or neighbor’s. I’ve always had a passion for animals more specifically dogs. For three years I worked at a dog training/boarding facility as a kennel technician and a trainer. Within the first couple of months working as a kennel technician I quickly developed a love for dog training and soon was promoted and worked as a trainer at the facility. I learned multiple ways to teach dogs different skills, work through behavioral issues, and how to better help owners understand and communicate with their dogs. From there I went on to work at a local dog park/bar for just about three years as well. I closely monitored the dogs in the park to make sure they were playing in a fair and safe manner. I had to be able to read the dogs in the park and deescalate possible tension between dogs to prevent any scuffles or accidents. Currently I work at the Dog park that has been reopened. I work one night a week there. Typically Friday. Full time I Train dogs and Pack walk. As of right now I’m doing Rover full time! However I do run a structured pack walk with dogs I’ve trained or have received previous training in the mornings and I also train Board and trains at my house/on pack walks. My schedule is open for early morning drop ins/walks, mid day, and evenings. I can do drop ins multiple times a day but please keep in mind I do not stay overnight. I can board your pup(s) overnight at my house if they have received training previously by another trainer or if they have been trained by me. I provide loving care in the comfort of your pet’s own space! When we leave for trips or go to work it can often cause our pets to feel anxious or stressed and taking them away from the home they find most comforting can often worsen these feelings, especially in very chaotic environments like conventional boarding facilities. By keeping them in their own environment it can be more comforting than boarding them away from your home. This may also be more comforting for you too! For boarding your pup must be kennel trained for when I briefly the house and for meal times! However if your pup is boarding with me they will usually be out free roaming with my pups while I’m home and they will join me on my weekly pack walks as well! Safety and comfort are my top priority when it comes to pet sitting. Finding someone you can trust is very hard. I will try my very best to keep you as updated as possible by sending as many photos as I can as well as on every rover drop in card I will leave a description about what we did during the drop in so you aren’t left hanging! On walks I will do everything in my power to make sure your dog is safe and gets the time they need to sniff, explore, and do their business. I can drop in a few times a day if you are out of town or if you work long shifts and you’d prefer your pup to stay at home. I drop by and give potty breaks,food, water, play time, exercise, whatever your best friend may need I will try my best to provide it!
“We are so lucky to have found our new dog sitters! From the first meeting, it was clear how much they genuinely care about dogs. Our pup adored them right away, and that gave us so much peace of mind. You can tell they put their heart into what they do. We’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Gloria was a lifesaver!! Me and by husband needed a sitter for the day last minute for a day trip the next day and she responded immediately and was sweet! Kenny enjoyed his day with Gloria, and came home a happy happy boy! Def book with her for all your pet needs!”
“We had an amazing experience with this dog sitter! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and the property offers plenty of land for dogs to roam, explore, and really stretch their legs. Their sweet children were so gentle and playful with our pup, making the stay even more enjoyable. Overall, we give our experience a 10 out of 10!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was around 9 years old, starting with my own pets and helping out with the pets of friends and family. While I haven’t done it professionally until now, I’ve always been the go-to person when someone needed a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their furry friend. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and love giving them the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or in-home visits, I treat every pet like my own, with patience, playfulness, and lots of love! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I recently graduated, so I currently have a very open and flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and care throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and relaxed in their familiar space. During visits, I make sure they get plenty of attention, whether that means playtime, cuddles, a walk, or just some calm companionship. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to favorite toys and potty breaks. I know how important it is to maintain your pet’s usual routine, so I do everything I can to make each visit feel safe, fun, and stress-free for both you and your furry friend!
About: I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own two mixed dogs and an orange tabby cat myself. I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible! I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)
“Tatum is amazing! My pup and I just moved to the area and I was so nervous about her adjusting to a new place and not having my family around to help take her out and go on walks during the day. Tatum helped ease all of those worries. She provides incredible updates with the cutest photos. The best of all is that my dog absolutely loves her and is always excited to see her. She’s made being in a new place so much easier!”
About: I have over 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, Australian Cattle Dogs (Blue Heelers), Bull Terriers, Cane Corsos, and Boston Terriers. I am comfortable with large, powerful breeds as well as small companion dogs. In addition to caring for family pets and dogs belonging to friends and neighbors, I was entrusted with the care of the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team (3ABCT), 1st Armored Division Bulldog Mascot while Soldiers were away for training. This experience required reliability, consistency, and attention to the dog’s daily needs and well-being. As a military veteran, I understand the importance of responsibility, trust, and clear communication. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, exercise, playtime, and ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, providing a safe, structured, and loving environment has become second nature to me. As a military veteran, I value consistency, reliability, and attention to detail. Whether caring for my own pets or those entrusted to me, I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, supervision, and routine care. I enjoy spending time outdoors, which makes daily walks and active play a natural part of my lifestyle. Pet care is not an interruption to my routine, it is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and two friendly, well socialized dogs who can provide companionship if your dog enjoys interacting with others. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and routines. Pets in my care are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. If your dog prefers their own space, I can easily separate or crate them when needed to ensure a safe, stress free environment for everyone.

About: WARNING- I send soooooo many pic and video updates to pet parents. If you don’t like for constant updates I may not be the sitter for you. I am a huge dog person, my aunt is a veterinary technician, and since I was a child, I went to work with her every weekend to assist her with cleaning the kennels, sitting with the dogs the veterinary clinic owned. Observing the animals behavior. I’ve owned a dog since I was five years old. Dogs have ALWAYS been a passion of mine. Anytime I see one out and about, I always ask if I can pet it or Love on it. I currently have an American Staffordshire Terrier named Kira Bella, I’ve owned her for four years. She is an ex show dog. She’s my child. I treat her no differently than a human would treat their own child. So I know the importance of finding the right person to care for your dog or cat.

“Kayla is the best. She showed patience and understanding for my furbaby whom never stayed with anyone before. He received lots of love and got a chance to have a play date.”
“Once again Jennifer and her family did a wonderful job of taking care of my dogs. I always have complete confidence leaving my dogs with Jennifer. I even worry they might not want to come home with me. Lol I highly recommend Jennifer for all your boarding needs.”
“Debbie was great....she gave us regular updates on Roodles. She took very care of our dog....we were very impressed. She even had a meet and greet in the beginning to meet roodles....we felt very comfortable leaving Roodles with her. Our dog is scared of fireworks and Debbie comforted her and got her through it on NY eve”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! Wags and Whiskers Play and Stay was an absolute blessing to me during an unexpected emergency trip out of town. From the very beginning, Sandra and Mark made me feel completely at ease leaving my dog, Lex Luther in their care—and that peace of mind is priceless. They went above and beyond! I received regular updates, including videos and pictures, which meant so much to me. It was clear Lex wasn’t just being “watched,” but truly cared for, loved, and engaged. They played, had treats, and my dog looked comfortable and happy the entire time. When I picked Lex up, I could tell he had been well taken care of—calm, content, and not stressed at all. That speaks volumes! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals, I highly recommend Wags and Whiskers Play and Stay. I will definitely be using them again!”
“A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Andrea & family were incredible. First time leaving my fur baby with someone other than family. Certainly I was a bit nervous. I chose Andrea based on her reviews and genuine smile on the profile. She lived up to expectation and the reviews. Daily photo and updates were provided without request. She even bathe my boy, sent him home so fresh and so clean. I am certain I will be booking in the future, Thank you again for your warmth and care for Pooh! :-)”
“Alona is absolutely amazing!! Very attentive and detailed. She communicates well with updates and she really put my mind at ease when I needed a dog sitter in a clutch. My 🐕 was so happy when I picked him up that he didn’t want to leave 😃 I will definitely call her to dog sit again. Thanks Alona!!!”
“Kara was amazing!! I know we made a great choice choosing her to watch over our fur baby while we were away. She communicated everyday with pictures and videos letting us know how he was doing. We will definitely be booking again with her real soon. Thank you for everything!! I would give 100 stars if I could.”
“Megan and her family were absolutely phenomenal with Remington. The attention given to our dog was incredible and our feeding and care instructions were followed to a T. We received pictures and updates multiple times daily with any and all information we asked for. I would 100% book again and refer to a friend.”
“Mary Grace was a godsend to our family. Our beloved and notoriously mischievous 11 year old /70lb shepherd mix is prone to stress and can’t be comfortably boarded in a facility. He is also getting older, so he struggles with separation anxiety and requires frequent walks and intellectual stimulation. Mary Grace was a perfect fit. She is extremely competent and conscientious. She met both Ranger’s needs as a full time companion (walks, feeding, engaging) and my needs as a concerned parent (pictures, updates, etc). It’s the first time we’ve traveled in years that I was not constantly worried about Ranger. I would not hesitate to book with her again or to recommend her to others. She is amazing and I’m so grateful for how well she cared for our boy.”
“Samantha was absolutely great! I’m a first timer and she made me feel at ease from the start about leaving my dog with her. Will definitely book Samantha and her wonderful family again!”
“keshia was so attentive and kind! she asked all of the necessary questions to make sure she could give my two dogs the most comfortable stay possible and kept me updated with pictures throughout my whole vacation. it was such a huge relief to know my babies were safe and in good hands while i was out of town. would definitely recommend to others in need of pet sitting services. thank you keshya! ☺️”
“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”
“Anna and her family were great! My dogs had a great time in their big back yard and with their dog. When I returned from my trip, my dogs were happy to show me around what they had been up to and I could tell they were well taken care of. Thank you Anna!”

“My sweet 13 yo Bella (border. collie) has mobility issues. Johnnica had to carry my girl up and down stairs to take her outside. Johnnica was easy to work with and understood my concerns on how hard it is to leave my baby. Johnnica sent pictures and answered my text promptly which alleviated my anxiety. Bella was well taken care of. I was so happy with the care that Bella received that I asked Johnnica to watch my girl again in September.”
