“Gracie was so well taken care of! They kept in communication daily. I cannot wait to take her back. She came back happy and exhausted from her vacation! I would absolutely recommend Lizdalia to take care of your pet anytime! She treated Gracie as if she were her own family and Gracie loved her. Could not ask for a better sitter. I promise you will be very pleased! Thank you so much for being there for us. We are blessed we found you!”
“If you want your dog to be on a fabulous vacation while you are out of town, this is the place to take your pup! Janira and her husband provide the perfect environment with a large fenced in yard and even a doggy door to go in and out of the house. They both clearly love dogs and both work from home. On top of all this, they provide regular updates and pictures. There is simply no place better but watch out—your dog may want to stay there forever,”
“Bryce was very accommodating, kind, and responsive! He was open to meeting beforehand for my ease of mind prior to the stay and sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout. Would recommend and would book again!”

“Megan did an amazing job watching our dog! She sent us daily updates with photos and had great communication throughout the entire stay. Our dog loved it over there.”
“Maximo took amazing care of my dog, Logan, for a few days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. His communication was outstanding from start to finish, and he was incredibly flexible with scheduling. Every day, he sent me pictures and updates on how Logan was doing, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that Logan was having a great time. You can truly tell that Maximo is a genuine dog lover who treats every dog as if they were his own. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable. Logan and I will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Kelli was amazing! She was sure to ask about any special care our pup may need upon drop off, and she sent updates/pictures to us every day… it was so nice to see that our pup Rosie was having a great time while we were away! Your dog is in great hands with Kelli… would highly recommend.”

“Shannia took such wonderful care of our dog, Atlas, and we couldn't be more grateful! From the moment we met her, we knew Atlas was in caring and capable hands. She treated him like he was her own, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Shannia kept us updated throughout his stay, and it was clear that Atlas was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, healthy, and obviously had a great time. It's not easy to find someone you completely trust with your pet, but Shannia exceeded all of our expectations. We highly recommend Shannia to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive dog sitter. Atlas can't wait for his next stay!”
“Kevonna was so sweet with my cat! She clipped her nails for me, sent photos of her and made sure she was taken care of through the Christmas holiday. We will definitely book with her again :)”
“Allisha and her family were the best when it came to caring for our pup. They cared for him like their own and it gave us peace of mind to know he was being well taken care of. My pup had so much fun with her kids and I received lots of great pics throughout his stay. I never had to worry. Would definitely recommend Allisha! Such a lifesaver.”

“Kory was super great in taking care of our cat while we were away for a week. She was communicative, took care of everything we needed, and even helped clean up a potting soil accident that our cat decided to create. Her help was very appreciated and we would definitely recommend to others.”
“Daniel was a fantastic and attentive caretaker (as usual!) for our two cats, Bob and Aries. We always book with Daniel and trust that our boys are in good hands while we're away. The daily updates are fun to receive and we appreciate returning to happy kitties with full tummies in a calm, tidy home. We highly recommend Daniel's services and are so grateful to have found a sitter we can depend on! Thanks for always taking such good care of our little gremlins, Daniel! You're the best!”

“Jackie was great with our cat and our home while we were away. She was able to recognize signs of stress and adjust the care she provided to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable (he is typically on the skittish/nervous side as it is, so we wanted to make sure he was in good hands while out of town). She also sent us photos and updates while we were away. She was very kind and respectful. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“5 stars! 2 paws up! Amy is awesome! We felt at ease with her taking care of our 4 pups one being a 140lb Great Dane. Great communication & photo updates. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Sonya was so great! She was so good to our cat Harvey. Even though we were a little bit out of her area she could tell we were in a pinch and really helped us out at the last minute. We cannot thank you enough!”

“Wow! I was really nervous about leaving my tiny cavapoo for the first time and must have called a dozen kennels before I decided to try Rover. What a lucky day when I found Elise. She and her two dogs Buster and Mango gave Coco a safe, fun, loving place to stay. I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home. Elise and Bill have a lovely home with a beautifully fenced front and back yard and a shady porch and deck for pup naps. I can’t thank them enough or recommend them highly enough. Really superb and we will be back next month - already booked for a week!”
“I am so glad that we found her!!! She is so sweet, kind, soft-spoken, caring, and just the type of person who anyone should feel content to leave their fur-baby with. Her children are very involved with the dogs are they are the most well-behaved kids who know how to treat dogs and how to interact with them. We have been doing daycare with Shelby and her family and I honestly cannot say enough good things about them. My pups have a great time and have been coming home exhausted. A tired pup is a happy pup! I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals and have been caring for them since I was a young girl. I volunteered at my local humane society growing up, which sparked my love for helping animals feel safe, loved, and cared for. I later spent 4 years working at a veterinary hospital, where I gained hands-on experience and truly fell in love with animal care on a deeper level. I also worked as a manager at a puppy store in high school, partnering closely with local breeders and learning even more about responsible care and different breeds. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to our mini Goldendoodle, Thor, who is full of energy and loves making new friends. We stay active with at least three walks a day, so your pup will get plenty of exercise, attention, and playtime while in my care. I have two young children who absolutely adore animals and have been raised to be gentle, loving, and respectful around pets. Our home is full of warmth, playfulness, and lots of cuddles! While I truly love cats as well, my husband is highly allergic, so I’m currently only able to offer care in my home for dogs. However I am able to care for cats in your home. I treat every dog like part of the family and understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone you trust. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind every step of the way. I work full time however I am able to care for dogs given I work from home. Thor will also provide a fun and loving environment while your fur babies stay at our home. I have a large home & take Thor on many walks. I enjoy our walks and also let him run in our pickleball courts for extra exercise and fun.
