“Glacier’s daycare experience with Stephanie went so well that we decided to do an overnight stay with her and it went even better! Glacier is such a hard dog to feed and he ate so easily with Stephanie. He made himself so comfortable at nighttime on her bed which just shows how comfortable he feels with her. It really gives such peace of mind to know my dog feels comfortable in her care!”
“This is the second time I have used Tracy as a sitter for Tucker and she is amazing! I feel so comforted knowing that he is being taken care of so well. Tracy sends picture and video updates regularly which lets me know he is happy and having fun. It’s almost as if Tucker is on vacation when I am on vacation.”
“Emmelin was so great with my fur baby! Communicated daily with updates and pictures/videos. My dog had a great time with new friends too. So grateful to have a trusted person caring for her. Thank you so much Emmelin!!!”
“Mr Maceo was absolutely wonderful with our dog. She warmed up quickly with him and truly seemed to enjoy herself. Mr Maceo provided picture mail regularly and I never had to wonder how my dog was doing. We’ll definitely be booking with him for future use.”
“I cherish the time my fur baby has with his Play Date, and Overnights with Max (Aimee’s fur bab). Aimee is a great Host, and Max and Chief get along well. Aimee and her husband are like Chief’s second family (they are so account patient). It means a lot to have a supportive and stable Sitter.😇”
“Thank you Penny and Barron for taking such good care of Clemy. I appreciate all you did to help her feel at home. It was comforting to know she was in good hands while I was gone. I really appreciated the pictures and updates, too.”
“Kim and family are amazing with our Lexi Lou! We always know Lou is well taken care of and loved like their own while we are away.It makes it that much easier to go on a trip when we know our baby is being well cared for. 🥰”
“Jennifer watched my dog overnight. She asked all the right questions to get to know my dog and her schedule. She treated my dog like her own. I would recommend Jennifer for any pet sitting needs.”
“Kelly & Ronnie were so great with my 2 little munchkins. They did activities with them. Took them on a golf cart ride and most importantly kept them safe and happy. They really love pet sitting and making your baby feel like it’s their vacation home. I will definitely see you guys again. Paco and pappy were so happy to spend time with you. Thank you both for caring for them so much this past weekend!! And sending so many pics. I was always stress free. ❤️🙌”
“Tanisha and her family are phenomenal! I was nervous about leaving my dog with someone else for the first time and she very quickly eased my nerves. She was great about sending updates and pics at least once a day and she even bathed him without having been asked so when we picked him up he was clean. She always responds fast, she’s flexible, and you can tell she loves the dogs with her whole heart. She went above and beyond for us and if I ever need someone to watch my dog again she will be my first thought. So grateful we found her!!!”
“Ranesha is wonderful! Our mini Schnauzer is an old girl and we were hesitant to leave her at a kennel for an extended period of time while we traveled out of the country. I had no reason to worry. Not only did Ranesha send me photos of Miko every day, but in every photo my pup looked happy and loved. When we picked her up we think she was sad to leave! Will definitely call on Ranesha to keep Miko in the future.”
“Quinn had the best time staying with Lauren! I always get nervous leaving him with anyone but once I met Lauren I knew he was in great hands. She kept me updated with pics. She took such good care of my Iil’ guy?”
“Julie is a great pet sitter! She kept our older dog with medical needs happy and cared for. She administered several medications and kept us updated daily. We would definitely recommend Julie and her family for your pet sitting needs!”
“Aja was amazing! She gave my pup so much love and stuck to her schedule perfectly. She was always prompt with updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the care she provided! Would recommend and plan to go back!!”
“Ms. Eden was excellent sitter for my Ms. Carly while traveling for the holidays. She is a dog whisper and will be back again and again and again. Ms. Eden and family thank you for taking care of my Carly. 🙏🏾❤️”

“Thank you so much for watching Oliver and Allie!!! Lindsay has been absolutely amazing!!! I have felt so comfortable being away from home knowing she were taking such good care of them!! We will definitely reach out to her again if we need her! I definitely recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs!!!”
“Thanks, Julie, for taking care of the kitties! They were in fine spirits when we got home from our trip out of state. We especially appreciated the nightly notes and photos.”
“Would absolutely use Zoe again! Our Titus loves her!!! Didn’t take Zoe long to become fast friends with him and make him feel loved and happy in our absence. She was wonderful about sending sweet pictures during every check in. Much appreciated!”
About: I’ve loved being around animals for as long as I can remember! Throughout college, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs while they were away and have also kitten sat, giving me experience with both dogs and cats. Growing up, I had a dog with diabetes, so I’m comfortable administering insulin and understand the importance of following a pet’s care routine closely. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly home with plenty of room for your pet to relax and explore. I just moved home from college and while my parents aren’t quite ready for the long-term commitment of having a pet of our own, I’d love the opportunity to provide a safe, caring, and fun temporary home for your furry family member through Rover! I’m currently working in person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and have the rest of the days of the week to play with your furry friends! Your pet will have plenty of space to feel comfortable and stay active during their stay! My home has a large backyard and front yard, providing lots of room for supervised outdoor time and play. Inside, my home also offers plenty of space for pets to relax, explore, and feel at home.
“Stephanie is fantastic! This is our second time having her come watch our pet and she has been phenomenal. She really takes the anxiety out of going away/travel with her detailed communication and obvious love and care for our pets.”
About: I have spent several years working with cats as a credentialed veterinary technician (FL) and have now started working with them in their home as a pet sitter. I am experienced with cat behavior, accepting that sometimes cats want to just be near people but not acknowledged, and can safely handle for both oral and injectable medications.
“Alyssa was amazing at keeping me connected to my fur baby while we were away. She made the effort to meet with him before we left and sent daily pics with updates ❤️Would highly recommend using her to care for your pet.”
About: important it is to leave your cat with someone who gets them — the routines, the quirks, and the attitude. I’m patient, gentle, and great at winning over even the most skeptical kitties. From playtime and cuddles (if approved by the cat, of course) to meals, litter, and meds, I’ve got it covered. I’ll treat your cat like my own and keep you updated with cute photos and notes while you’re away.
“Dana was amazing!!!! She checked in on time everyday, and sent lots of pics. I could tell Nala was happy and in good hands. Dana is my first choice when I need someone to care form my pets.”
“Lanae watched my two cats for almost two weeks, and did an amazing job! I got lots of update photos and she did everything I asked to insure things were taken care of. She even brought them some new toys:) Would definitely recommend booking her to look after your fur babies!”
“Sebastian took exceptional care of my three Rottweilers while I was away. He is fantastic with large breeds and handled all three of my babies with patience, confidence, and genuine care. He administered medications with ease, cleaned up after accidents without hesitation, and made sure they were happy and well cared for. One of the things I appreciated most was the daily pictures and updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. It’s not easy finding someone you can trust with large dogs, but Sebastian exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and knowledgeable pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with him again!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Katie did an excellent job providing doggy daycare services for Maximus. She is a great communicator, very responsive, and kept me comfortable throughout the process. It is clear that she is truly passionate about dogs and genuinely loves caring for them. Her dog Louie is also very sweet, which made the experience even better. Katie has a beautiful fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and enjoy themselves safely. I would definitely recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone caring, reliable, and dog-loving to watch their pup.”
“Jennifer was great and had a wonderful interview / acclamation process. Our two dogs got along well with her dog and it was an awesome day for everyone involved! Definitely recommended!”
About: My name is Ashlee. I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past few years, I’ve started caring for others after my sweet Chihuahua name Jezzie pasted away due to old age. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds, including fostering. I work from home so your baby will get nonstop attention. I only board small to medium size dogs (Less than 30 pounds, I will accommodate outside of that on some rare occasions- feel free to ask). I specialize and care for lots of puppies, elderly dogs that need extra medical care. I allow them on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. Any specific requests for them? Let me know! ***PLEASE NOTE:*** ***PLEASE NOTE:*** IF your male fur baby likes to “Mark” his territory, please consider another experienced and qualified sitter- Please Do Not attempt to book with me. I thrive to keep a clean, sanitized and fresh smelling home for humans (big and small) and fur babies. Thanks I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am available most weeks 7 days a week and I am open to accommodating emergencies as well. I live in a townhouse/condo with a front and back yard. There are sidewalks where we can go for a walk and a doggy park near by. I ensure water is accessible at all times- if pet is a free eater- food will be accessible as well. I ensure the baby gates are up and leashes are readily in site for potty breaks. I do not mind providing baths as well if your fur baby has a little too much fun outside.
About: We have three miniature schnauzers and a medium size Pharaoh hound that we adopted a few years ago. We have been the go to pet sitters for friends and family members for several years. Our family loves dogs and when they stay with us, we treat them like our family. Your babies will be well loved in our home. I work out of the house a couple days a week. Usually on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a flexible schedule and work at home often. When I am not home, our adult daughter is usually here and also helps with the dogs. We have full family participation in the care of our pup friends. I can care for your small dogs in my home. I have a large, fully fenced yard so there is room to run and have fun!
“I feel like Lucy was spoiled so perfectly! Each day we came, Lucy scrambled to get out of the car and run up to the front door as fast as she could. Not only did Lucy enjoy going there, we feel like we made life-long friends! What a blessing to find this wonderful couple!”
“I can say nothing but THANK YOU! the care and service Ashley gave my dog Manchado was awesome, she let him play with her doga toys, he immediately trusted her, I recommend 100 % booking with her ❤️❤️❤️”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who treats every pup like part of the family. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10, and I still get just as excited every time I meet a new furry friend! I work from home full time, which means your pup will get plenty of love, attention, and playtime throughout the day. My 10-year-old daughter is my little helper and loves spending time with our overnight guests. We also have a friendly 6-year-old Shepherd Lab mix who’s always ready to make a new buddy. Our fenced-in backyard is perfect for zoomies, and we’ve got safe sidewalks nearby for fun, sniff-filled walks. We do ask that our doggy guests are potty trained. I’ve also volunteered and fostered with our local humane society, so I know how to keep pups happy, healthy, and feeling right at home. Your dog might miss you just a little—but I promise, they’ll have such a blast they won’t even notice you’re gone! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I can’t wait to welcome your fur baby into our home! Since I work from home, your pup will have plenty of attention and outdoor time whenever they need it! I’m all about keeping their routine as close to what they’re used to at home, so they feel safe, happy, and totally at ease. I have a fenced in back yard and a dog of my own to keep your pup entertained. My daughter and I love animals and will give them plenty of play time and snuggles!
“Julie is amazing! My lab mix Trevor is going to Julie’s once a week since January and absolutely loves it. He whines to go inside as soon as he recognizes her house. Julie clearly cares about Trevor and sends regular updates with pictures. Thank you Julie!”
About: The level of personal care and attention I give, every animal I care for is treated like family. I don’t just feed and walk pets; I learn their routines, notice the little things, and adapt to their personality and needs. Whether it’s a nervous dog who needs quiet companionship or a playful dog who craves engagement. I create a calm, familiar environment that helps pets feel safe. Working remotely allows me the flexibility and presence to give pets the attention they need throughout the day. Since I’m home, I can provide consistent care, whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping a watchful eye on them. I’m not rushing in between a 9-5 or gone for hours. I’m here, fully available to keep pets comfortable, engaged, and safe in a calm home environment. Whether pets stay with me or I care for them in their own home, my focus is always on creating a calm, familiar, and loving environment. In my home, I offer a safe space where animals are free to relax, and play. I maintain their usual routines as closely as possible with mealtimes, walks, medications, and quiet time. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat their space with respect and care, ensuring everything stays clean and organized. I follow your instructions closely, giving your pet the comfort of their routine and surroundings while you’re away. Whether it’s overnight stays or daily visits, I aim to keep things stress-free for both you and your pet.
“Highly recommend . Aja & her daughter treated my puppy with so much love . I got check ups through out the day on what they did & how things was going . 5 star sitter will be satisfied ! Thanks again Aja nova will be back 💛”
“Calm in the midst of what felt like canine chaos. LeKesha has the patience of Job; calm and easy going. LeKesha hosts multiple Rover guests and projects a calm and anxiety free environment. LeKesha introduces dogs new to each other in a slow and controlled way, after everyone is calm. I was anxious, but LeKesha remained calm and confident that all the pups would be fine. Her confidence helped diminish my anxiety about leaving my pup in a new environment. My pup had a great time meeting new pups, new people and exploring the yard. After her first night, after daycare, she conked right out that evening.”
“Daniel is a fantastic sitter. I think my dog may like Daniel more than me! I can tell by the pictures and daily summary that they have a great time together. Would highly recommend!”
“10/10 service! Tenisha & Eric are great. Communication and response time is amazing. They also care for my doodle baby as they do their own and provide me with updates throughout the day.”
“Penny and Barron have been great hosts every time we’ve used them. They clearly love our dog and he always has a blast with them. They go above and beyond to make sure he feels as loved as their own dog.”
About: I recently lost my doggy friend of 11 years. I have experience with elderly and sickly pups. I will handle your pup with the same care that I took care of mine. I work from home full time, so I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and walks if required. We have a large back yard that is fenced in for play as well. I have a fenced back yard. We just have a 12 year old that visits for the summer once a year. I am able to travel and care for your pets in your home as well if that is more comfortable.
“Roseann's home is a great place to leave your fur baby. It is clean and fresh and I had no qualms about leaving my Gizmo with her. She has a deck that the pups can go out and watch the activity. Roseann walks the dogs 3 times a day and the pics I got showed my pup really enjoyed that. Her own dog is so sweet and well behaved. I will absolutely leave Gizmo with Roseann again.”
About: Animals have been my heart and soul for as long as I can remember! I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, and right now, I share my home with three amazing pups and two awesome reptiles—a leopard gecko and a bearded dragon. For over 10 years, I’ve owned a thriving business in the area, and along the way, I started caring for some of my clients’ pets. That quickly grew into a true passion for pet sitting! I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly!) babies and give them the love and care they deserve while you’re away! My 13-year-old son regularly accompanies me on drop-in visits. If you or your pets are uncomfortable with this, we’re probably not the right fit — and that’s totally okay! For everyone else, your pets will enjoy double the love and double the attention. 💛🐾 We keep set hours to maintain a calm, low-stress environment for all pets. Drop-off begins at 7:30am, and pick-up is by 8:00pm. Earlier drop-offs can be arranged as early as 7am if needed. However, if your pet is not picked up by 8:00pm, an additional day will be charged and pick-up will move to the following morning. When you’re away, I’m your furbaby’s new bestie! 🐾 Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or sticking to their favorite routine, I treat your pets like family—because to me, they are! I’ll make sure they get all the love, attention, and care they deserve, just like you would. So go ahead, enjoy your time away… your pets are in the best hands! Long walks, belly rubs, and all the love—yep, that’s my thing! 🐾💕 What I love most about pet sitting is building real bonds with the dogs I care for. There’s nothing better than winning over a pup who’s a little unsure at first, and by day three, we’re besties! Earning a dog’s trust is the most rewarding feeling, and I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!
“Can highly recommend Rebecca!! Super accommodating and flexible with pick up times and took great care of my fur baby. She has a lovely fenced in backyard and the cutest dog who is a great companion and play mate. We'll be back!!”

Very professional and always going above and beyond to make sure Gwen is safe and comfortable while I’m gone on business. Doing the little extra things that stack up. If you are looking for a great sitter or someone to walk your dog I highly recommend Valeria and you will thank yourself later and your animals will absolutely love her.

About: Hi, I’m Zoe! I’ve had the pleasure of owning and raising both dogs and cats throughout my life. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve also helped family, friends, and family friends with their pets. I know how important your pet is to you, which is why I’m committed to providing reliable, trustworthy, and respectful care. Whether it’s a walk, keeping them company, or just a quick check-in, I’ll ensure your pets are happy and well cared for, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I’m currently a full-time college student with a flexible schedule since I attend school from home. I’m great at planning ahead to make sure every pet in my care gets the attention, playtime, and consistency they need. While my schedule offers a lot of flexibility, I’m not able to commit to recurring or high-frequency visits (such as multiple daily check-ins over several consecutive days). I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both my availability and your pet’s needs! To care for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow the specific instructions provided by the client, ensuring each pet's routine is maintained. This includes walking dogs, feeding both dogs and cats according to their schedules, and ensuring they have access to fresh water. I also check in on their well-being, engage in playtime, and give them the necessary affection to keep them happy and comfortable. Additionally, I keep the home tidy, clean up after the pets, and watch for any signs of illness or distress, always keeping the client informed of any important updates.
About: I have at least 3 years of experience working at a pet boarding facility and am capable of taking care of both dogs and cats. I completely understand the anxiety about boarding your pets anywhere and understand that lot of people prefer to keep their pets at home where their pet is already comfortable, so I would like to offer to take care of your beloved pets while you're away. I work part time with a mixed schedule, but am otherwise completely available to be there to provide the needed care for your beloved pets You make the rules for me to follow in your home, and I will do everything in my power to ensure your pet is well taken care of while keeping your home in order.
About: As an experienced dog & house rabbit owner and credentialed veterinary technician (FL), I understand that every pet and species needs vary. I am excited to work you as a pet parent to find out what works for you and your pets individual needs. Your dog will be with someone consistently thru their stay with potty breaks, walks, cuddles, and playtime as they enjoy. My partner works from home and my time is spent caring for dogs, tending our garden, and painting pet portrait commissions. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog (yellow lab) that can keep your dog company or be kept separate if needed. We can easily accommodate a crate in quiet spaces or more central based on what your pet is used to. My goal is to make my home feel as familiar as their own. I do require all dogs staying in my home to, at minimum, be up-to-date on their Rabies vaccination and be on flea prevention (I’m happy to provide resources where these are accessible if needed). Other vaccines and parasite preventions are highly recommended. Beginning August 2026: all dogs will be also required to have an up-to-date Distemper / Parvo (DAPP) vaccination as well.

You might recognize me from the appliance department at Lowe’s of Newnan! I’m eager to learn and I’m excited to take care of your sweet furbabies. See you soon!

Adaptability: My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to any changes or additional needs that arise, ensuring I can always provide the necessary care. Personal Time: Self-Care and Downtime: I prioritize self-care and downtime to recharge, ensuring I am always at my best when caring for pets. This balance helps me maintain high energy levels and enthusiasm for my work. Professional Development: I also allocate time for professional development, such as attending pet care workshops, training sessions, or first aid courses to continuously improve my skills. Flexibility and Commitment On-Call Availability: My business structure allows me to be on-call for emergencies or last-minute requests, providing peace of mind for pet owners. Client-Centered Approach: I tailor my schedule to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring their pets receive personalized and attentive care.

“Taylor was AWESOME, no complaints at all! She did really well with our pittie Sully. Communication was great & we got updates with pictures on every walk. Definitely will be using her again in the future. Highly recommend booking with her!”
About: From a young age, I have been dedicated to animal care. My family partnered with our local humane society, taking in abused or rehabilitating animals. We nurtured them back to health and found them loving homes. Personally, I have owned numerous dogs, ranging from Dachshunds to German Shepherds, and have experience with various health issues, including seizures, blindness, and hip dysplasia. I have plenty of time to take care of your pets during the day and evening! Weekends tend to be busier if you’re not booking in advance! I offer in-home pet care services. I will let your dog out for bathroom breaks, ensure they have proper food and water, and provide a good play session. I am skilled at handling dogs on a leash and always take great care to watch for cars and other potential hazards. I can also administer any needed medications or fulfill other special needs for each dog's specific circumstance.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 30 years and grew up with both dogs and cats. I currently have a rescue pup named Spot and have cared for pets for friends, neighbors, and families while they traveled. For over a year, I visited a friend’s dogs multiple times a day while she worked as a traveling nurse. I provided food, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also offer litter box cleaning, mail collection, plant watering, and photo updates. I enjoy caring for friendly, house-trained pets and always prefer a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet feels comfortable with me. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care seven days a week, including weekends and most holidays. I work part-time remotely, so I can typically visit up to three times a day. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and communicating with pet owners so you always know how your pet is doing. I know your pets are family, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep routines consistent, and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I prefer meeting your pet before accepting a booking so we can make sure everyone feels comfortable. I’ll also send photos and updates after every visit because I know how reassuring it is to see a happy face while you’re away.

“Glacier’s daycare experience with Stephanie went so well that we decided to do an overnight stay with her and it went even better! Glacier is such a hard dog to feed and he ate so easily with Stephanie. He made himself so comfortable at nighttime on her bed which just shows how comfortable he feels with her. It really gives such peace of mind to know my dog feels comfortable in her care!”

“Quinn had the best time staying with Lauren! I always get nervous leaving him with anyone but once I met Lauren I knew he was in great hands. She kept me updated with pics. She took such good care of my Iil’ guy?”
“Julie is a great pet sitter! She kept our older dog with medical needs happy and cared for. She administered several medications and kept us updated daily. We would definitely recommend Julie and her family for your pet sitting needs!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our dogs while we were away! LeKesha was incredibly kind, professional, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Our pups took to them right away, and it was such a relief knowing they were in loving, capable hands. We received regular updates, photos, and even a few videos that made us smile every day. It was obvious our dogs were happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of love and attention. Highly, highly recommended for anyone looking for trustworthy and genuinely caring pet care!”

“A 5 ⭐️ review is just not enough to rate Mary she is awesome and goes above and beyond I never really left my pet with anyone cause I’m so particular and scared something might happen and plus I have very active dogs but Mary changed all that she made it so stress free also Mary is very good with communication from pictures to videos to text messages I mean the whole package thanks Mary Ace & Kilo really enjoyed there stay and will be seeing you again soon .?”
“Best sitter in the business. My original scheduled sitter canceled few days before the date and Kylle was the only one to respond to my request. I was very concerned about Royce's interaction since it was spur of the moment but after the initial meet and greet I was sold. She kept me up to date with photos and videos. I know he was having good time. In the photos and videos he was playing with Kylle's mom as well. It shows me her household is full of love. I definitely recommend her and she will be my go to sitter moving forward. Thank you,”
“Omggg 10/10. Very convenient and helpful. Ariana was able to take my Flossy on a late night when I had an unexpected trip. Ariana was able to accommodate and modify the booking with my weird schedule. She listened to her food needs & informed me everything going on with her & updates either pictures. Definitely see us booking again in the near future if need be.”
“I got more than what I bargain for! I was only looking for a sitter for a quick trip over the weekend, and hoping that they would be patient enough with a dog which I just adopted from the shelter with who knows what trauma he had; I landed on a professional! This was my first experience and a pleasant one as well! FYI this is not a drop off service! I appreciated the time that Joshua took to ask me as much as I knew about my "new" dog. After a couple of minutes he says “he has dog in him", which for me meant that he accepts and was looking forward to getting to know him. Besides the basic questions, allergies, vet info and all, he genuinely asked about "my" concerns. I appreciated that. During my time away he volunteered updates on how my Buddy was doing, even had breathtaking photoshoot! Buddy was looking fierce and sexy! (see pics in album with red and blue collars : ) My greatest appreciation was the feedback when I returned. Buddy was at his best behavior and Joshua also shared his thoughts on Buddy's true potential. After sharing my habits at home with Buddy, as a professional trainer, Joshua pointed out the does and don'ts and why they were important which was very helpful! He shared commands and how to execute and reinforce them, and helpful items I could purchase to help with training at home. I won't write a book here, but to sum it all up, I won't turn anywhere else, Joshua is "my go to" for the future. Thank you Joshua!”
“I can't say enough good things about Surereal! She took such great care of my dog while I was away for a few days, and I could tell my pup was happy and well-loved the entire time. From regular updates to making sure my dog’s routine stayed consistent, she went above and beyond to provide excellent service. Not only was my dog well taken care of, but Surereal; also showed genuine kindness and professionalism throughout the entire experience. It’s clear that she has a passion for animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my furry friend was in great hands. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter, I highly recommend Surereal. I will absolutely be booking them again!”
“As parents of a new baby, we were very concerned about leaving our Marley anyway, however, based on the reviews of Langston we felt Marley would be in good hands. We did a visit before hand and Marley loved it and Langston was very good with her. During our trip, Langston kept us informed of how Marley was doing and sent plenty of pics. We give Langston a 5 star reveiw for caring for our baby.”
“I want to thank Tenisha and Eric Tidwell for loving my Harley this past week, their home and the love they have for my Harley is wonderful, they are truly FAMILY!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
About: I have had 5+ dogs in my home since growing up. I love all animals, and love the craziness they bring! Dogs and cats bring so much joy and I will treat your animals like my own.

I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that are very friendly! My golden retriever loves all animals and is looking to play with anyone! Both dogs are up to date on their vaccines and are both neutered.
