Personalized care for your dog or cat - Capron
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Capron
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“Mary did such a great job taking care of my dog! She kept me updated and was reliable. She would send me picture/video updates daily and I could tell my dog loved being with her. I felt really comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Definitely recommend!”
“Sumer went above and beyond! She was there for me in a time of crisis and I will never forget that. She helped me out and was very flexible when it was really needed. Also, my dogs love her! I can't believe how fast my shy guy came out of his shell for her! Yay Sumer! Thank you so much!”
“Deanne watched our baby during our 2 weeks in Ireland. She sent daily pictures and reassuring updates about how his day was going. She's super accommodating about pickup and drop-off times, and Taisho always sleeps the entire way home, a sign of a happy, tired puppy. He's on the smaller side and not wild about being around larger dogs, so she always makes sure he gets plenty of attention and a spot on a chair up above the craziness. Deanne's the best! I've used her for overnights and longer visits like this one - she's always been great. I'm actually on Rover to book another stay!”
“Danielle was very communicative and took care of our dogs like they were her own. Highly recommend. Our dogs got all the love and a daily walk which they definitely enjoyed.”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“Ms Theresa provided excellent care for my dog Toby and I felt completely comfortable leaving (Toby) in her hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone lolking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.”
“I am very pleased with Tanya's care and attention. She provides a CLEAN place and a space where your pet would be comfortable. She's communicative and her price point is very justifiable as she provides top care. She's by far the best! Would highly recommend.”
“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors. This past year has really been the first time I’ve been without a pet. My daughter and I have a lot of love and attention to give any furry friend. I have early mornings and late afternoon-evening open Monday-Friday open and most weekends are completely open. Holiday time will have more availability with my Thanksgiving and winter break. I have a pretty big yard and a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks. I plan to do my best to make sure your pet feels as at home as possible when in my care.
“June C. Did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She sent photos and updates daily and our Fred was well taken care of. He was happy and healthy. I will not hesitate to ask June to watch him again in the future.”
“The best sitters on this app! Absolutely professional in the way of doing things and unbelievably lovely with the dog. I’ve left my pup with them twice and she refuses to leave their place when I pick her back up. Super friendly couple and very much involved in their care towards dogs. Thomas and Emily always accommodated my requests and were super helpful in giving my pups medication too. I would 100% recommend them, the best dog sitters ive come across so far!!!”
“There are no words to express how thankful we are. Traci and her family made our family feel completely at ease while we were away for the very first time. This was our first experience leaving our baby with someone else, and trusting another family to care for him was a big step for us. Traci and her family treated our boy as if he were their own. She kept us updated, which we deeply appreciated, and you can see in the photos just how comfortable and safe he felt. That alone gave us so much peace of mind. For anyone considering care, we highly recommend Traci and her family. They are truly the best. And their dog, Wilfred — the cutest, kindest boy ever — made the experience even sweeter.”
“Great communication from Ashley! I received pictures and videos and continual love from afar about my sweet boy. Huge yard and a great home for any doggie. Excited to have Bowie hosted there again, highly recommended! Great experience!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Jessica took great care of Avery. She was boarding another rat terrier at the same time and took steps to ensure the two dogs got along at feeding time. Her daughter made sure Avery got lots of love and exercise. She came home happy & healthy. Overall it was a great experience.”
“Carla is the best! We had never trusted anyone to fully board our puppy (Ruth) before, but Carla knocked it out of the park. We vacationed for over a week and Carla sent us photo and video updates frequently. She was very inquisitive about Ruth's habits and how she acted at home, and worked to be as amenable as possible. The living area both in and outside the house was so dog friendly, and she was willing to let Ruth go over a few times for playdates to get comfortable before staying over. Just an extremely pleasant experience, her flexibility and comfort/skill with dogs put her leaps and bounds ahead of any dog boarding experience we could've hoped for.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of our family. Last year, we said goodbye to our English Bulldog after 12 wonderful years, and while my family is not quite ready for another forever pup yet, I am excited to open our home and hearts to other dogs in the meantime. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I'll treat your dog like part of the family. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just relaxing company, I'm happy to provide a loving and comfortable environment. I work from home full-time during the work week, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship and supervision while in my care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits with a schedule that can accommodate most pet needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in the country on a full acre with a large fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play. Our home provides a calm, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed while away from their families. Pets receive lots of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. I’ll always treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay.
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”

“Olivia was absolutely wonderful while we were away! She dropped in twice to let our dogs out, feed them, and make sure they were well cared for. She treated our home with so much respect and care, truly like it was her own. One of our favorite parts was all the beautiful pictures she took of the dogs while we were gone, it gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile seeing how happy and comfortable they were. You can really tell she genuinely cares about animals.”
“Kelly was wonderful. Our dogs truly felt at ease and enjoyed every visit. Loved the picture updates that truly put our minds at ease that our fur babies were in great hands. I will definitely be calling on her again and highly recommend her.”
“I cannot say enough about Amanda’s exceptional care for my four cats. Over the years, I’ve hired many pet sitters, and she is by far the best I’ve ever had. Her attentiveness and compassion made it so much easier for me to be away, giving me true peace of mind. Not only did she provide outstanding care for my cats, but she also went above and beyond by feeding the stray animals who rely on me for daily meals, as well as keeping my backyard squirrels and birds well-fed. She even collected my mail and kept in regular contact with updates, reassuring words, and adorable photos. Amanda is simply the BEST—reliable, thoughtful, and truly devoted. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“I am so happy to have found Lisa! She has great communication skills and responds so quickly. My cat is so content when I return from travel because of her care. Highly recommended that you contact her for your pet sittng needs, she will go above beyond for you!”
“Awesome to work with! Very dependable and a great communicator. So glad she was able to drop in and check in on our kitties while we were away. Would easily rebook with again! Thanks so much, Jessica!”
“First time booking wirh Michelle. She lives in the same town, has all kinds of pets & loves cats. We scheduled a meet & greet to learn what the pets needed. I appreciated that very much. Michelle took fed & watered & took photos of my outdoor cats and also tried to have cuddle, offer affection & pet them time as booked, but cats werent used to her. I thanked her for trying. Good experience and very reliable.”
“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! I am very nervous leaving my big German shepherd with anyone (I’m a bit of a helicopter parent) but Taylor got on with him very well! She dropped in on him during a very long day at work for me, gave him a bit of attention and a potty break, and all went smoothly! She communicated quickly when she was with him and even brought in my heavy chewy box of dog food that was delivered! I can’t say how happy I am to have someone that seems to like my big boy and will be able to take care of him when I need. Taylor is awesome!!”
About: When I worked on a farm for a couple of years, I had many very sweet, loving barn cats to take care of. I now work in a veterinary hospital and help care for cats daily when I'm at work. I currently have one cat of my own - Tippy! I am especially interested in taking care of animal's minds as much as their bodies. I think mental enrichment is just as important as physical health. I strive to keep up to date knowledge and to always continue learning about physical and behavioral health!
“Kristen dropped in twice a day to feed our cat while we were out of town. She checked in with me each time she went by and even sent pictures of Jude looking fat and happy. Knowing someone was there checking on things made being away from home much less stressful. When we got home everything in the house was just as we left it and Jude was so much more chill than she usually is when we get home. Kristen was very nice and easy to make arrangements with. I would definitely recommend her and will book her again if needed.”

I feed them and change their water every everyday, play with them, search for enriching toys for them to play with. With. Sometimes I put on TV for them and my girl cat likes when I rock her.

“Can’t thank Christina enough for coming through on such short notice! Blair had the best time and was the happiest pup with her. So grateful to have someone I can trust with my baby, knowing she’s in great hands and having a fun day.”
“This was our first visit with Deanne. Doggy Daycare was a hit! Cash was happy when I picked him up. He was sound asleep on the couch within a 1/2 of getting home. I think he had a busy day with his new lil buddy!”

About: I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have always had a dog as a pet, and currently have one German Shepard named Salem. I am a stay at home mom, and would love nothing more than to care for your pet family! I worked at a humane society in Wisconsin for several years, and am familiar with basic dog first aid. I am not afraid of any mess your pup may make, and am well experienced in what dogs should or shouldn't eat. I am also not afraid of misbehaved dogs, please feel free to contact me even if your dog is a "problem child." I love all dogs, and realize how special they are to their owner. My goal is to make your dog as comfortable and happy as possible in your absence. I am a stay at home mom, so I have all the time in the world for your animals! My schedule is very flexible, and I am caring for animals daily. I treat pets as though they are members of the family. I respect all household rules, and take great care in following the instructions you leave for your pet!
“Samantha was amazing with our Sully! He had such a good time playing & we loved all the updates/pictures during his stay. We definitely would rebook when we’re back in the area.”
“Stacy has been watching Trixie about 2 to 3 times a week since I adopted Trixie at 4 months old over a year ago. She's been a godsend allowing me to work downtown and have care for Trixie. She goes above and beyond, and I'm pretty sure Trixie thinks she's her mom :) Thanks for everything Stacy!”
About: “I have years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From puppies full of energy to senior dogs needing gentle attention, I provide safe, reliable, and loving care. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet parents can count on me to be responsible, punctual, and attentive to their dog’s unique needs. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate to caring for pets. Your furry friend will always be my first priority. I love spending time walking, playing, and making sure they feel happy and loved. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or sitting during the day. I’ll always do my best to work around your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and happiness always come first with me. I care for pets in their own home so they feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or house sitting, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and give them all the love and attention they deserve. You can count on me to treat your fur baby like family every time.
About: Safety is always my number one priority, and snuggles are a close second. While I don’t consider myself a professional dog trainer, I have a lot of hands-on experience training my own dogs and enjoy doing fun, light basic training with pups who are willing participants. Above all, my goal is to make your pet feel completely comfortable and happy in my care whether that means going for walks, getting extra snuggles, or engaging in a little positive, low-pressure training. I work part-time for my family business and have the flexibility to take my work with me anywhere. That means your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I truly love animals and make them a natural part of my daily life, it’s something that brings me a lot of joy and fulfillment I have three playful, friendly, and highly socialized dogs in my home. Crating is available if needed for your pet’s comfort and safety. My yard features a secure 6-foot privacy fence with plenty of space for your dog to run, play, and explore.
“Lauren was so good to our dog who is shy but super friendly. She made him feel at home and played his favorite game of fetch. He was tired when he came home and he slept the entire night. We will definitely use Lauren again. She even sent a little video of him to us.”
“Emily treats your fur babies like her own! My girls absolutely love spending the day at doggie daycare with her and her sweet pup, Gertie. I get the cutest playtime videos throughout the day, which gives me total peace of mind knowing they're safe, loved, and having an absolute blast while I'm away.”
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet 70 lb pit bull for 4 years now in my home with a fully fenced backyard, downstairs dog play area, private room and crate for your dog, and eufy camera access to the private room. My dog has esophageal dysmotility so I understand medically complicated dogs. My home is ideal for a dog that is lower energy and enjoys calm and quiet environments. I work remote so I am home throughout the day other than the occasional doctor appointment. On average when I leave the home, it’s usually only about 2 hours and the max is about 4 hours. I also take my dog to a home groomer every other week so I can coordinate with you to take your dog to my groomer when my dog goes for grooming for an extra cost plus you paying the groomer separately. The most important thing is that your dog and my dog get along and/or are neutral. When I leave for brief periods your dog will be crated in their private room with the door closed and my dog will be loose but without access to your dog. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys! I work fully remote so your dog will be with me at all times (unless I have an appointment or errand to run) either in my office, their own private room with a crate, or in the living room. I typically wake up around 6 am and pet care happens whenever my dog needs so I can do the same for your dog in terms of potty breaks and feeding and play time. I am typically in bed by 8 pm but will get up if needed to take my dog out to the bathroom as well. Safety is my main priority. I require that our dogs get along/are neutral to one another to prevent any sort of altercation. If there ever is an altercation, you would be informed immediately and the dogs can easily be separated for the rest of the day/boarding booking. I have a very quiet and calm home and live in a quiet neighborhood as well. I take breaks during work to get on the couch and spend time with my dog and will do the same for yours! Your dog must be crate trained and will be put in a crate for any time I must leave the home (max 4 hours at a time). Your dog will also have to be either in their crate or in their private room with the door closed while I sleep. Them being able to be in their private room with the door closed while I sleep will be allowed on a case-by-case basis. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high of a safety risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys!
About: I focus on building trust so pets feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies (basic training and routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, patience, and medication support). Every pet is treated like family. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, so pets get consistent attention and care rather than being left alone. I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment, whether in my home or the client’s. I supervise pets closely, follow their routines, and ensure they have fresh water, proper meals, and plenty of attention. I focus on building trust, reducing stress, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and secure.
About: It’s been a while since I offered services, but I’m getting back into it and would love to care for your babies! I have always been a dog owner - if I could rescue every dog in the world I would! Instead, I'll gladly help take care of other peoples' angels and call it a day. I recently lost my dog of 12 years and am ready to pour my puppy love into your dogs. I work from home so will always be around. I work from home so am always around - your dog will not be left alone! I will only accept bookings for days and times that I have nothing else planned so I can keep my focus on your animal! I have a yard that is partially fenced, so I will take your pup on walks or only be outside with them leashed. I take safety seriously!
“Lenny had a great experience at doggy daycare. He’s a rescue and a little shy at first, but the Dan made him feel safe and comfortable right away. I really appreciate the caring environment and attention they give the dogs. 🐾”
About: e grown up with dogs my whole life and consider them part of the family. I love being around dogs and have experience house-sitting, walking, and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and individual needs, and I always make sure dogs feel safe, cared for, and loved while in my care. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I have a golden retriever puppy, and since I grew up with dogs, caring for him feels very natural to me. Every day starts and ends with walks, and throughout the week I make sure he gets plenty of exercise and socialization by taking him to the dog park regularly. At home, we spend a lot of time playing tug-of-war or fetch to keep him active and engaged. Because he has a sensitive stomach, I also prepare fresh homemade meals for him twice a day, so meal prep is built into my routine as well. One of my favorite parts of the day is winding down in the evening by cuddling up with my pup and reading a good book. Overall, caring for him is woven into both my daily schedule and the way I like to relax and spend my time. I am going back to school in the fall and do not currently work so my schedule is extremely flexible to take care of your pups :) I provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment for pets in both my home and my client’s home. In my home, pets have access to a secure fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. I also have a friendly golden retriever puppy who enjoys being around other dogs, but I can easily separate him if a pet prefers their own space or needs a calmer environment. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I have experience caring for dogs with sensitive stomachs, so I’m comfortable preparing fresh meals, following dietary restrictions, and administering basic care as needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel comfortable and cared for while away from their owners. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their familiar routine and environment. I provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cleanup, and lots of companionship, while also treating the home respectfully and keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
“Let me start off by saying that Ella was absolutely amazing!!! I mean from start to finish she is phenomenal, her energy is amazing and she took care of my dog so so well!! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures and my dog looked replaced and happy! My dog is usually anxious in the car but for some reason when I picked her up she was relaxed and calmed which ensured she was comfortable and is beginning to recognize that I will always come back got her. Ella you are truly an angel and I look forward to future visits”

“Amanda is super kind and flexible. My dog Lucy absolutely adores walks/but can also be a bit difficult. Amanda has been accommodating and great for both of us. Thank you!”
“Mari helped us with a drop-in visit with less than a weeks notice. She was great with our dog, who can be nervous of new people. Mari didn’t push our pooch beyond what she wanted to do, and we felt very appreciative knowing she was looking in on her while we were away for the day. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for nearly my entire life, so your furry friends will be in very experienced hands. I find genuine joy in being around animals and truly love the bond that comes with pet sitting. Since I believe staying active is essential for a happy pet, I especially enjoy taking dogs on long walks. It’s a great way for them to burn off energy and explore, providing a mutual benefit of exercise and fresh air for both myself and your pup! Lifelong Experience: Hands-on care with a variety of animals since childhood. Large Animal Familiarity: Comfortable and capable with both large and small dogs Active Care Style: Dedicated to ensuring your pet gets the movement and stimulation they need. I’m currently a full time college student and attend classes two days a week. This allows me to have an open and consistent schedule to care for the needs of clients! Growing up, I participated in dog obedience training with my county’s 4-H program. This experience allows me to promote a safe and nurturing environment while allowing the dog to have a positive experience.
“I’ve used Rover in the past and after an initial meeting, have had great luck with dog walkers. Michelle is even a step above those walkers. Her kindness and patience in allowing my timid dog to get used to her slowly, over a few visits, was such a relief. Michelle’s a rockstar! 😊”

About: I have cared for family members' and neighbors' dogs for many years. I prioritize walks, since it's most dog's favorite time of day! I always give dogs the attention they deserve when I am babysitting as well! I'm currently working part-time in the evenings + I LOVE morning walks! Would love to start off my day right or get some time in the sun midday:D If needed, I can still walk your dog(s) even if you are not home. I have experience entering/exiting homes and making sure pups are back safely in their designated areas.
“My dog, who can be nervous, loved Brynna right away! She was a lifesaver, giving our Siberian Husky a potty break and walk on a day we had to be away. This is my first experience with Rover, and Brynna made it a great one! Thank you so much.”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, with a special appreciation for senior pets and those who need extra patience or consistency. One of the most meaningful experiences I've had was adopting a 12-year-old cat that developed chronic kidney disease (CKD). I cared for her through nearly four years of treatment, managing medications, hydration, appetite, weight, and daily routines until she passed away just shy of her 16th birthday. That experience taught me the importance of careful observation, consistency, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior that can indicate something isn't right. I also have experience caring for a Yorkshire Terrier and understand the unique needs of toy breeds, including their size, energy, and safety considerations. Several family members and friends have larger dogs that I take on walks and care for when they're away. Professionally, my background is in consulting and project management, which has made me highly organized, dependable, and detail-oriented. I follow instructions carefully, communicate proactively, and believe pet owners deserve regular updates and photos so they can enjoy their time away with confidence. My goal is always to care for your pets the way I would want someone to care for my own. Pet sitting fits well into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care while maintaining flexibility. I currently offer overnight house sitting, typically from approximately 7:00 p.m. until 7:00 a.m., when many pets appreciate the comfort of having someone with them overnight. During the day, I may have other work or personal commitments depending on the booking, but I always communicate my schedule in advance so expectations are clear. I strive to keep pets on their normal routines for meals, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and companionship while respecting the schedule that works best for each household. I understand how important consistency is for animals, especially seniors or pets with medical needs, and I do my best to minimize disruptions to their daily routine. I am able to pick up your animal and drop them off for an additional fee ($10 / day). When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is maintaining the environment and routines they already know. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, exercise, household rules, and any special care your pet requires. I take time to build trust with each animal, allowing shy or anxious pets to become comfortable at their own pace. Safety is extremely important to me. I pay close attention during walks, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets for changes in behavior or health, and never hesitate to contact an owner if I have a question or concern. I also treat every home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine, keeping it clean, secure, and well cared for during your absence. Communication is a key part of my service. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing and can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors.

About: I have taken care of my own pets (Dogs, cats and even bunnies) sense I was 6. I started watching friends and families pets at just 10. I am a huge animal lover and have never met a dog I couldn’t win over ❤️ I have a bunny named Ella who has just turned 4. She is honestly sometimes the reason i wake up in the morning. Her basic needs are similar to that of a dog and a cat. I believe than an animal is an equal member of the family. They are the babies that comfort and bring smiles to the family. That being said if they want attention, they will get as much attention as they want when I am around. I am all about routines when it comes to food and treats however, I also think it is important to switch things up now and than (such as a walking route) to make the day exciting for them.

“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“Mary did such a great job taking care of my dog! She kept me updated and was reliable. She would send me picture/video updates daily and I could tell my dog loved being with her. I felt really comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Definitely recommend!”
“Sumer went above and beyond! She was there for me in a time of crisis and I will never forget that. She helped me out and was very flexible when it was really needed. Also, my dogs love her! I can't believe how fast my shy guy came out of his shell for her! Yay Sumer! Thank you so much!”
“Deanne watched our baby during our 2 weeks in Ireland. She sent daily pictures and reassuring updates about how his day was going. She's super accommodating about pickup and drop-off times, and Taisho always sleeps the entire way home, a sign of a happy, tired puppy. He's on the smaller side and not wild about being around larger dogs, so she always makes sure he gets plenty of attention and a spot on a chair up above the craziness. Deanne's the best! I've used her for overnights and longer visits like this one - she's always been great. I'm actually on Rover to book another stay!”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“I am very pleased with Tanya's care and attention. She provides a CLEAN place and a space where your pet would be comfortable. She's communicative and her price point is very justifiable as she provides top care. She's by far the best! Would highly recommend.”
“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”

“Great communication from Ashley! I received pictures and videos and continual love from afar about my sweet boy. Huge yard and a great home for any doggie. Excited to have Bowie hosted there again, highly recommended! Great experience!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Carla is the best! We had never trusted anyone to fully board our puppy (Ruth) before, but Carla knocked it out of the park. We vacationed for over a week and Carla sent us photo and video updates frequently. She was very inquisitive about Ruth's habits and how she acted at home, and worked to be as amenable as possible. The living area both in and outside the house was so dog friendly, and she was willing to let Ruth go over a few times for playdates to get comfortable before staying over. Just an extremely pleasant experience, her flexibility and comfort/skill with dogs put her leaps and bounds ahead of any dog boarding experience we could've hoped for.”

I work from home full-time, so your pup will have lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I'll treat your dog like part of the family. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just relaxing company, I'm happy to provide a loving and comfortable environment. I work from home full-time during the work week, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship and supervision while in my care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits with a schedule that can accommodate most pet needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in the country on a full acre with a large fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play. Our home provides a calm, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed while away from their families. Pets receive lots of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. I’ll always treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay.
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”
“Carolyn was fantastic! Not only did she take awesome care of our dog, but she kept us well informed with daily photos and updates. She put our minds at ease. Our dog seemed to have a great time and adjusted right away to his new surroundings. I would not hesitate at all to leave him again with Carolyn.”
“Julia was absolutely a dream! She took such incredible care of our Weimaraner, Mozzie. Great communication, great photos and she made sure he had his own vacation while we were away! 10/10 and will rebook again!”
