“I'm so happy Mya is the sitter I chose. Her back yard is a PUPPY PARADISE... I'm used to apartment living and having to leash walk Luci several times a day. But at Mya's house, Luci can run around in a big secure fenced-in yard with lush grass. It was like a real vacation for her. Mya has cameras on her phone so she can watch the dogs when she's away from the house. She is so chill and welcoming. I brought up my dog's behavioral issues, and she really took the time during the initial meeting to make sure her 4 pups and mine were going to get along OK, and to answer any questions I might have. Her small dogs are very sweet, and Luci made fast friends with them. I got updates with photos and video every day. Overall it was an amazing experience, and I hope we get to make this a more regular thing. Would rate 6 stars if I could.”

“Sarah and her daughter were so kind and nice to work with! They took on Henry last minute so that I could make some travel plans, and were really patient with my late night pick-up. They were so kind and Henry had a great time. We would highly recommend sending your pup to spend some time with them!”

About: Hi! My name it’s Lizbeth. I was born into a family of dog lovers and I would love to assist you in taking care of your dog. I’ve taken care of dogs since almost 8 years for now and I just love them! I will be a friendly and loving care taker of your dog! I currently work 4 days a week. I have weekends off so I’m available and happy to help with your pets and spend time with them. I live in a house with a small, secure yard and a spacious basement that provides plenty of room for pets to play and stay active. I also live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood with a dog park nearby, which is great for walks, exercise, and outdoor playtime.

“AMAZING! Nicole was so sweet and caring! She took great care of our puppy and made us feel so comfortable since this was our first time doing something like this! It was awesome getting sent pictures of Jax as well!”

“Taylor was great! She sent lots of pictures and took Millie on a few walks a day which Millie loves. She also gave updates on how she playing with the other dogs that were there which puts our minds at ease.”

“I can't say enough great things about Ruth! She took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we went on vacation for a week. She provided them with snuggles, walks, and social time and provided us with peace of mind so we could relax. She sent us a few pictures and even some videos! I highly recommend Ruth and we look forward to seeing her again in the future!”

“Tammy and her family were amazing! Eli loved running around in the big fenced yard and playing with Ranger. He felt right at home and was napping on the couch in no time. We enjoyed getting updates when we were away and felt confident that Eli was in good hands. Very experienced family of pet sitters. Would recommend and hope they are available again to watch Eli.”

Susan’s husband Mark is also very good and a dog lover . My dog had a lot of fun with her dogs . I highly recommend her . She took really good care of my dog for the week he stayed .”

About: Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but our goal is to make their stay feel like a fun, comfortable vacation rather than time away from home! We are lifelong animal lovers and have cared for pets of all kinds —from dogs and cats to fish, turtles, guinea pigs, and just about anything in between. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have continually trusted my wife and I to care for their beloved pets, and we truly enjoy having animals as part of our family. We board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention rather than being one of many dogs competing for care. Our four children, ages 8–13, are also huge animal lovers and are always excited to provide extra attention, affection, and playtime. With six people in our household, your dog will have plenty of companionship and will quickly feel like part of the family. We live on a 4-acre property that gives your dog plenty of space to enjoy new sights, sounds, and smells. For safety, exploring the property is done on leash, and the abundant wildlife in the area provides plenty of interesting things for curious noses to investigate! Your dog will be walked at least once in the morning and once in the evening, with bathroom breaks every 2–4 hours or as needed. During the week, my wife and I have the ability to work from home, allowing us to provide care and companionship throughout the day. We understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and we’ll do our best to maintain their normal schedule and make them feel comfortable during their stay. We do require dogs to be potty trained and have no history of aggression. We also ask that dogs be trained not to chew on household items or other non-toy objects. We completely understand that puppies are still learning, though, and we’re happy to work with them and provide the patience and supervision they need! Most importantly, we want you to feel confident and comfortable while your dog is in our care. We’re happy to learn about your dog’s personality, routines, favorite activities, and any special quirks that will help us give them the best possible stay. We look forward to meeting you and your pup and welcoming them into our home! When your dog stays with us, they won’t just be a guest—they’ll be part of our family No matter what our day looks like, there is always someone available to provide the attention and consistency of car for your dog(s), which is the number one priority. We also have a furnished basement that can be closed off if needed. Or a quiet capped garage and workshop room depending on the sleeping arrangements your dog is accustomed to. If you could please let me know of any special needs your dog may require or want.
“Angela was so great with our 2 pups! They had a blast playing with her dog Ellie and giving lots of cuddles on the couch and in bed! She also helped us out with having someone pick up the dogs and being them back so they could be a part of our wedding day! I highly recommend her!”

“Our dog Luna loved staying with Flor! They kept us updated with how she was doing with fun photos and videos. They took her on walks and out to play at the dog park. Our Luna also loved their sweet dog and kitten. 😊❤️❤️”

“Erika was wonderful taking care of our Lance during the holiday. We would have loved to take him with us, but it is too stressful for Lance. Lance was very happy to stay with Erika as she has a pup of her own. Yay for a playmate!”


About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their routine, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every dog with care and patience. I maintain a very flexible routine and am home the majority of the day. I do volunteer a few hours daily, but I’m otherwise available to care for pets, provide attention, and keep them on their normal schedule. Dogs in my care will have a stable environment, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every dog in my care. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel at home.
“Remi loves going out on adventures with Ann and Greg! As a pet parent, I love getting the updates and pictures of him having fun! When life gets busy, I know I can trust Ann and Greg to care for our fur babies!”

“Our dog Oliver had his first Rover experience two days ago. It couldn’t have been any better. Angy has a little 5 lb dog so the two dogs played and cuddled all day. Angy and her husband showed genuine concern for our dog’s well being. Oliver came home a very happy and tired dog. Finding Angy was a big blessing.”

About: Hi! I am an owner of a smart, service, doodle named Brody. I love all animal & have cared for many dog breeds and ages. I am currently working from home and have plenty of spare time. I am available weekdays/weekends & overnights to care for your furry friend 🐾 We live in a great, peaceful neighborhood with plenty of backyard space for your pup to exercise, play & have plenty of potty breaks. I have undivided love for animals and believe they deserve the best care. I have a young boy that love dogs. Our home is very pet friendly. If your pup likes to relax on the sofa, sprawl out on the floor or snuggle in bed it's all 100% acceptable!
About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.

I am also familiar with walking dogs who tend to be reactive, and will do my best to ensure that your dog has a safe and enjoyable walk!

I am free mainly during the late morning and early afternoon on both weekdays and weekends. I have lots of experience with dog-sitting, and will work with you to become familiar with your dog’s routine, habits, and preferences. I am ready and willing to learn more about your dog!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Family and friends rely on me to watch their dogs overnight, feed and give them love. I’m currently not working, so I will have tons of time to play and care for your pups. I’m available for boarding through out the week. I can give your dogs walks and have plenty of time for play. I would give your dog the same love as if it was my own.
About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.
“Jessica has been walking our dog for over a year. She is great with him and he gets so excited when she arrives. We have also had drop in visits that helped us out. Highly recommend her services.”
