“Dunkin's first time with an over night boarding while his humans went away could not of been any better. After two introduction daycare visits to Jackie the day of his stay he could of not been any more comfortable. He actually ran into her house! Jackie's updates with me and pictures while I was gone put me at ease right away. Dunkin received the best of care while staying in a loving home environment. Dunkin for sure will be staying again. Thank you!”
“As always, Jackie is phenomenal. On very short notice, she took Molly so I could focus on my grand daughter as my grandson was being born. She amazing and I have zero issues whenever Molly visits. She’s the best. Molly loves her!”
“Eric was awesome and super accomdating to us with timing even though our flight was delayed. We couldn't be more grateful for that and also knowing Papaya was in good hands during her stay. Papaya got along really well with Axl and Eric's family. We saw lots of pictures and a tired dog is always a good sign that she had tons of fun!”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“Palvi is very nice and did a great job in taking care of Snoopy over 5 days while we were on vacation. Snoopy is shy, anxious by nature & picky eater. Snoopy got comfortable with her family in short time & had good fun time playing hide & seek with her kids & her pet Corgi. We are so thankful that we found Palvi & would definitely recommend her.”
“This was the longest I've left my dogs and had no worries. Kimberly treated my dogs like they were her own with lots of love and attention, had great communication, and sent lots of pictures and updates. There's nothing better than picking up well cared for and happy dogs! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“All good! Thank you for taking care of Steely, our quirky and a bit anxious boy. He hung out with Danielle and a good-natured golden doodle. Sounds like it was a perfect pairing that calmed him down and brought out his playful side. Thanks for everything, Danielle!”
“Mera did a great job at communicating with us. She sent us pictures and updates about our dogs. It was helpful knowing that she was taking such good care of our babies.”
“Lizzie was a perfect caretaker for our 7 year old golden doodle! She sent pictures, videos and communicated the perfect amount during our dog’s stay. We will booking with her again!”
“Leslie was amazing!!! It was obvious right away that my dogs loved her. She was so good with Molly and Bear, whether it was playtime or snuggle time. And she was absolutely wonderful about keeping us updated regularly! It’s hard to leave my pups, but her updates and pictures made it a lot easier. Leslie really cares for your pups. She is truly wonderful.”
“Miriam and Terrell took such wonderful care of my dogs, Diamond and Tiny, this past weekend! From the moment I dropped them off, I felt completely at ease. They followed all of my care instructions perfectly and truly treated my furbabies like their own. Their home is very dog-friendly, and the large fenced-in yard was a huge bonus—Diamond and Tiny clearly enjoyed spending lots of time outside. I also loved that they were comfortable letting the dogs relax on the furniture and even sleep in the beds, which made them feel right at home. Communication was excellent—I received multiple pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. And the report card at pickup? Such a thoughtful and fun touch! I really appreciated that extra level of care and detail. I can tell Diamond and Tiny were happy, loved, and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Miriam and Terrell again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch sitters! —Litisha, Diamond & Tiny 🐾”
“First time using Rover. My dog is a little shy around a new environment, but her care quickly put him at ease and he had a great time! Lots of videos and photos were provided. We're so glad to meet Niratcha. Thank you so much!!! He will return to you soon.”
“Gavin was very patient , kind and understanding of my crazy schedule for this weekend and also my first time pet parent anxiety, and my dog loved being in his carelol I would gladly book with him again!”
“Shauna and Peter were amazing! The reviews are all accurate and I'm so glad we found them. They took such good care of our puppy and sent us daily updates (photos and videos). The whole process was super easy and we were worried since this was our first time using Rover. When we picked up our puppy all his stuff was packed nicely and he was waiting for us at the front, ready and fed. We couldn't believe how great this app is and the loving families who opened up their home to our fur baby. Thank you Shauna and Peter for taking such good care of Leo.”
“My mini poodle was with Fanny for two nights. Fanny took care of him very well and she sent pictures and videos every day. My dog was very happy with her and her own little dog. Highly recommended!”

About: In kennel settings I’ve worked it, I have also taken care of cats. I have my own as well. Don’t tell anyone but she’s probably the most spoiled pet in the house. I’m familiar with their behaviors and have an understanding of the care needed for them. They are our family and I’m here to take care of your fur baby in a way that shows that.
About: I have loved cats for as long as I can remember. I've had cats since I was a young child, and they have always been cherished members of my family. Throughout my life, I've cared for cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to senior cats requiring extra attention and care. I often joke that my cats were my first children because I loved and cared for them with the same dedication, affection, and commitment that I would give any family member. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also fostered animals for my local animal shelter. Fostering has given me experience helping animals adjust to new environments, build trust, and receive the patience and care they need to thrive. It has reinforced my belief that every animal deserves to feel safe, loved, and valued. When caring for cats, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I understand that cats thrive on consistency and that each one has a unique personality and comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys cuddles and attention or prefers a quieter, more independent approach, I will respect their needs while ensuring they receive excellent care, companionship, and plenty of love. My goal is for your cat to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in compassionate and experienced hands.
“Evelyn stepped up to provide care for my two cats last minute. She was great with them both. I appreciate her constant communication and check-ins with pictures. Will definitely try to book her next time I’m needing someone to look after my animals!”
“Stephanie was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover, and she immediately helped us feel confident that we could count on her. We were able to relax and not worry about our kitty while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Don did a drop-in for us while we were at Paramount for the evening. He communicated during the booking process, asked great questions so as to ensure things went smoothly, and sent both photos and a post-visit note. Highly recommend him!”
“Cynthia is very detailed, attentive, clean, communicative and is very caring. She gave us comfort and assurance Storm was in good hands. She goes above and beyond expectations. I couldn’t have asked for a better person who carries her heart transparently and love and care for pets.”
“Thank you grace for taking good care of our cats. We appreciate your reliability and making sure our care instructions were followed. They were safe and happy when we got home.”
About: Cats are their own world, and I love that about them. I’ve worked with cats across a huge range of situations, from hand-raising newborn kittens and supporting their mom through birth and recovery, to helping socialize and rehabilitate cats rescued from a hoarding situation, where I administered medications and built trust with animals who have never known consistent, gentle care I understand that cats have their own personalities, boundaries, and routines. I won’t force affection or disrupt what makes your cat comfortable. I’ll follow your lead, respect their space, and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away.
“Rae'Na did a great job looking after our Mia. She left very detailed notes every day and took pictures of everything that she did. She gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thanks!”
“Megan was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond in caring for our cats and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure everything was perfect. It's obvious she genuinely loves animals, and they loved her right back. We came home to happy cats and a well-cared-for home, which means the world to us. I wouldn't hesitate to book Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and exceptional sitter. Thank you, Megan, for everything!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats every since I was 5 years old so I guess you could say I’m experienced!! I just received my graduate degree & now have plenty of time to provide exceptional care & love for your pups! 🐶 I’m available any day of the week for boarding, I work part time, have weekends off & have a very flexible schedule! I’m looking forward to providing exceptional care to your animal while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard and love to go for plenty of walks! Lots of space for your dog to explore in the house and backyard!
About: I know how important my dog's well-being and daily routine is to me, and I would love to help keep your dog in their routine! I have experience caring for and training dogs of all types, and will cater to senior dogs, medical needs, or special needs such as sensitive, selective, or reactive dogs. In my spare time I volunteer with my therapy dog Reese, and have experience fostering and training dogs using positive reinforcement. I know how hard it is to be away from your pet but I can assure a safe and successful walk, sit, or stay! I am a teacher, and currently available full time for animal care! Available on weekdays, for stop-ins during the work day, or over holiday weekends. In your home, I can offer lots of your dog's favorite exercise for every season. Depending on their activity level, we can take walks, runs, or just breaks/sniffs. I always clean up after dogs and demonstrate responsible dog ownership in your neighborhood! For stays at my house: the yard is huge, and backs to forest preserve property and pond, but the yard is unfenced so I am diligent about leashes.

About: I have always loved every different kind of animal out there, but spent my childhood with mostly just cats. 15 years ago, I adopted my first puppy, a German Short-haired Pointer, at the age of 8 weeks. My ex-husband and I decided to take the "treatless training" approach which was a huge success! Crate training, leash training, obedience training were all a collaborative effort and turned out extremely well. 10 years later, we adopted a sweet rescue named Gizmo who was already 7 years old, but became part of the family immediately. They have both passed on now to doggy heaven, but I am always the first to offer to care for other family member's pets anytime I can :) I'm currently working part-time from my home in Blackberry Creek and always have time for some fur-ball company. My 2 girls, 7 and 10 years old, are with me part time and are also very helpful, gentle and patient with our pets and hopefully yours! I have a fenced back yard with plenty of room for your fur-baby to play and exercise! If it better suits you, I can always come to your home as well for potty and play time :) UPDATE 6/8/26 - Since starting my Rover journey in 2022, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many amazing pets and their wonderful families. Along the way, our household has grown and changed in ways I never expected. In 2023, one of my regular Rover pups (actually a senior pup) became a permanent part of our family. Tigger’s owner had rescued him from a Chicago Animal Shelter just months before I began caring for him. As a 100 lb. Staffordshire Terrier, Great Dane, Bully, etc. mix, Tigger was a big boy with an even bigger heart. His owner dedicated to helping him become the best version of himself, especially since he wasn’t always comfortable around other dogs. With patience, training, and love, he blossomed into the sweetest, gentlest giant you could imagine. When his owner unexpectedly passed away, her husband reached out to ask if I would consider adopting Tigger. My answer was immediate: absolutely. I couldn’t bear the thought of him returning to a shelter. Bringing Tiggy into our family was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My girls and I were lucky enough to love, spoil, and cherish him for three wonderful years before he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We miss him every day, but are so grateful for the time we had together. Since then, we’ve also welcomed two adorable brother cats into our home. They keep us smiling and full our days with plenty of fun and affection. While our family has grown, we’re excited to have some doggy energy back in the house through Rover! When your pup stays with us, they’ll be welcomed with open arms and treated like a part of the family. We understand how much your pets mean to you because we’ve experienced firsthand just how special that bond can be. Our promise is simple: we’ll care for your furry family member with the same love, attention, and respect that we give our own. I work from home full time, so am able to provide your pup with all of the attention they deserve. They are free to run around in the fenced-in backyard and play at their fullest extent! Every pet owner has a different perspective on how to care for their pets. Some require a special routine for dinnertime or bedtime, while others require basic care with lots of love. I will follow whatever instructions are given to me by the owner…and I promise not to judge 😊

“Great experience! We highly recommend Jackie. She sent us pictures and videos thoughout the day. It was obvious to us LOKI was enjoying his time with Jackie. She clearly loves dogs.”
“Jackie was phenomenal. I reached out pretty last minute with a request that wasn’t exactly simple—she had to pick Ghost up from his training facility (not from me) and coordinate all of that seamlessly. On top of that, she even helped me sort out a small payment detail on Rover to make sure everything reflected correctly, which she absolutely didn’t have to do. She was super responsive, easy to work with, and just handled everything without friction. And the best part—Ghost lit up the second he saw her again after a few months, which tells you everything you need to know. Somehow she manages all of this while caring for multiple dogs at once and raising a young family, which honestly makes it even more impressive. Highly recommend giving Jackie a shot.”
“Thank you soooo much for the last minute daycare! You have a beautiful land! My dog is so happy and tired out yay! You guys are awesome will deff be booking again! Highly recommended!!”
About: Your dog isn’t just a guest - they’re part of the family. I work from home full time which means your pup will rarely be left alone. They’ll have constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of love throughout the day. I have a secured fenced yard for safe outdoor play and a dog-friendly pool that’s available for supervised swim time (if your pup enjoys water). I'm a dedicated dog lover who works from home, which means your furry friend will never be left alone. Whether it's a day of play or an overnight stay, your dog's happiness and safety are my top priorities. My home is a haven for dogs, featuring a spacious fenced yard where they can run and play freely. I also have a dog-friendly pool that's perfect for a supervised splash or a cool dip on a hot day
About: Hi! We’re new to Rover and excited to have your dog in our home! We’re a responsible and caring couple who love dogs and enjoy providing loving care. We have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes—from puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace, and from small breeds to large dogs. With two of us, your dog gets extra attention, supervision, and affection. We’re happy to accommodate routines, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of cuddles. We prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your dog feels comfortable and at home while you’re away. We treat every dog like our own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in great hands. We are always busy with our own two dogs and cat, and someone is always home for food and bathroom breaks. We love having dogs hangout with us or let them do their own thing. Our yard is now fully fenced too so we can spend as much or little time outside as they prefer We have two dogs of our own who love to enjoy the big yard and taking up space on the couch- your doggo will be welcome to do the same. Your dog will not be bored with us!
“I booked last minute and Gavin was wonderfully communicative throughout. Gavin greeted Bella so kindly before daycare, and Bella had a great time with Gavin! I really appreciated his responsiveness and care :)”
“My pup is normally very shy and takes him time warming up, but he loved Rosarin right away! He took treats (which never happens), enjoyed a nice long walk with her, and spent some time hanging out with her dog. Rosarin is great with animals, and she shared lots of helpful insights and cute pics/videos. Fantastic sitter, will use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful, and I felt completely safe leaving my precious pup with her for the weekend! We are so grateful to have found such a great Rover fit with her! Thank you Stephanie :)”
About: I have training experience and boarding experience. I’ve been doing this for over 2+ years. I know the signs to watch out for for aggression and seizures. I am doing this full-time as my job to take care of others fur babies while they’re away on vacation. In a home setting like there’s. I have a yard to play in and my dog loves playing with others.

About: Hello! I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! I have been caring for animals my whole life, including my own pets and also dogs I foster for a local rescue. I would love to care for your furry family member as well. As a Type-A personality and a mother of 3 humans and 3 dogs, I am very organized, reliable, detail-oriented, caring, and trustworthy. I work from home part-time in the photography industry and would love to help you add to the adorable photos of your pet while they are in my care, if you would like! I have a Masters Degree in Higher Education and a Bachelors in Entrepreneurship, both at Illinois State University. I did my business plan on a doggy day care and when I was a kid I wanted to be a vet, so as you can see...caring for animals has been in my blood from a young age! Several of my animals have had special needs or are prone to injury, so I have LOTS of experience in that regard. My vet can vouch for the fact that I would make a great vet tech. Blood and other bodily fluids do not phase me and I am cool as a cucumber under pressure (I've dealt with two dogs with broken legs, two dog strokes, cancer, many a laceration, a diabetic cat, and a dog with no eyes.) I also have fostered several puppies and love their puppy breath! Happy to help care for the youngest of your pets as well. I work from home part-time during typical business hours and cart my kids to and from their activities. My spare time is spent caring for your furry friends! Whether I am coming into your home or your pets are coming into mine, your pets and property will be treated with the utmost care and consideration. I will provide the excellent service I expect for pet sitters for my own family dogs and nothing less. Safety and security are also top of mind and, with my high attention to detail, nothing will be missed. Pets in my home will be treated like family. We have 2 retired racing greyhounds who are loving, calm, and kind, as well as a foster-fail super mutt who loves to play and keep our house safe from chipmunks and mail carriers. I have three kids (12, 10, and 7) who all have extensive experience with dogs and who will help me respectfully love on your pet while you are away. We have a LARGE fenced in yard with lots of little critters to sniff after and plenty of room to run. We live in a pet-friendly cul-du-sac with several dogs and chickens next door.
“Max had a wonderful time spending the day with Roger and his two dogs. Roger provided many pictures and a great summary of Max's time spent there. Highly recommend.”
“Our dog had a wonderful day with Donna and her dog, which included plenty of outdoor play. Donna is patient, calm, and genuinely cares about dogs. We are happy that we found Donna and are looking forward to more visits in the near future.”

“Grace was amazing handling my German Shepard, My dog is sweet but can be intimidating. He is strong and will bark at other dogs on walks so I always worry a little if people will be comfortable walking him. Grace was awesome with him and put me at ease. I’m so glad I found her to help me out and would use her again!”
About: I naturally get attached to animals, so your pet won’t just be watched, they’ll actually be cared for! I’m really patient and calm, which helps a lot with shy or anxious pets. I stick to routines and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in school Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 AM–1:30 PM, so I’m generally available for pet care outside of those hours. I’m also pretty flexible with scheduling and happy to work with your pet’s routine! I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable while in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions and give pets the attention and care they need.
“Kimberly was amazing with our crazy dog! We just moved and he was a bit anxious, but he loved her! She even offered to sew up one of the things he tore up in his kennel! She is so sweet and kept me informed on how my crazy little boy was doing while I was at work! I will definitely book her again!”
“Stephanie is so wonderful! She is energetic, warm, and very loving to our pup. She is reliable, communicative, and treats our boy like her own. We could not be more pleased with her service and will absolutely use her in the future.”
About: I have been pet sitting for several years ever since I was around the age of 13. Additionally, I work at Anderson Humane in South Elgin as a kennel tech and have been working there since August! I have worked with many different animals as a Kennel Tech, I also have experience with administering medicine and I am Fear Free certified. My animal experience is very important to me as I plan on majoring in animal science on the pre-vet track this upcoming fall when I head off to college! :) I work part time but I have plenty of time to care for your pets otherwise. My availability is open most of the time so just let me know when I’m needed and I should be able to accommodate! I look forward to meeting your pets! I am experienced in ensuring your animal stays comfortable and happy even if they may get nervous meeting someone new for example... I have lots of experience working with shy and reactive dogs and am comfortable with all temperaments because I can handle them well! I know how important your pets are so I am well prepared for anything!

About: Animals have always been at the center of my life. I grew up on a farm, caring for dogs, cats, goats, sheep, and chickens, so reading animal behavior, staying calm under pressure and knowing when somethings off comes naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve trained my own dogs, worked with rescue animals, and volunteered with KARE, where I help rehabilitate, both wild and domestic animals. That experience has taught me how to handle pets of all temperament and backgrounds, including those who were shy, anxious, or still learning the ropes. I personally cared for dogs, cats, ferrets, chinchillas, sugar, gliders, hedgehogs, snakes, fish, turtles, parrots, and a wide variety of reptiles, so chances are, I’ve worked with a pet like yours before! I bring patience and consistency to every interaction, whether it’s a quick drop in or a longer house sit. What sets me apart is that I don’t just love animals, I understand them. Your pet isn’t just a booking to me, they’re a living creature who deserves calm, attentive care from someone who genuinely knows what they’re doing. i’m generally available weekday mornings, weekday evenings, and weekends. My schedule varies week to week, so I keep my calendar updated in real time. If you don’t see any availability that works, feel free to reach out as my schedule sometimes opens up with short notice! when I’m in your home, my priority is keeping your pet safe and as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow your KARE instructions closely, do a quick safety check on arrival, and reach out immediately if anything seems off. You’ll get photo updates every visit so you can see your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve cared for pets throughout my life and understand the importance of providing reliable, attentive care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, following their set routines, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own, paying close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities to ensure they receive plenty of care and affection while all their needs are met! I’m currently working part-time so I am able to provide pet care everyday in the mornings/early afternoons. Evenings vary by my work schedule. I am always willing to try and make my schedule work for any of my clients needs! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to providing a safe and loving environment. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I've been caring for animals for over 12 years, starting with my own dog, Lola. Since both of my parents worked, I was often responsible for feeding her, taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she was well cared for. That experience taught me responsibility from a young age and helped me develop a genuine love for animals. Since then, I've cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, including dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am currently home for the summer, which means my availability is very flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Once summer ends, I will be continuing my pilot training and taking online courses through Lewis University. Even then, my schedule will remain flexible, allowing me to continue providing reliable and attentive care for your pets. I have a fenced yard and one dog of my own, Phoebe, who is incredibly friendly and loves being around other dogs. She can play all day long and does a great job helping other dogs feel comfortable in a new environment! If your pet will be staying in my home, I would be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so they can get to know Phoebe and make sure everyone is a good fit. Your pet's safety and well being are always my top priorities, and I will follow any routines or instructions you provide to help them feel right at home!
About: I grew up around a variety of animals my whole life and I have been caring for others pets since I was 13 years old. I have always loved animals and treat everyone's pets as if they were my own. My senior year of high school I created my senior project around therapy dogs and helping special needs children. I trained my own dog to be a certified therapy dog through the organization known as Pet Partners. The remainder of the project was visiting with special needs children and doing educational activities. We also visited libraries and young children with developing their reading skills. I recently graduated from Purdue University with an Animal Science degree which has allowed me to gain even more knowledge on how to care for people's pets. I also have knowledge of animal CPR and first aid for cats and dogs. I'm looking forward to being apart of this pet care community and providing excellent care to all the pets I encounter.
About: My passion is to work with animals for the rest of my life . I am going to school to be a veterinarian and plan on working with mixed animals . Eventually I plan on opening my own practice. I have volunteered in a vet clinic for 1 year and I have 1 year experience with pet sitting /dog walking . I have built a relationship that would last a life time with my clients and their pet owners . I am very responsible and hardworking and dependable. You will be very satisfied with my work and how much I truly enjoy taking care and looking after your love ones . You won’t be disappointed with choosing me as your provider, if you give me the opportunity.
“Goka has been an amazing caretaker for our dog Pochacco. She is very attentive, kind, and communicative when walking our dog and keeping us updated on how he’s doing :) highly recommend.”
About: Ever since I was little, I’ve always been surrounded by furry friends. I value the tranquility, love, & affection that animals bring. I love every animal; big or small, energetic or calm, you name it! I will take care of your pup the same way I would my own. I am currently working part-time at Enigma 5PM-10PM (Friday & Saturday nights). I also have class midday Monday-Thursday and Tuesday nights. Other than that, I have all the time in the world for your furry friends! I will go above and beyond what is asked. It’s not only walking, feeding, and watching over your pet, but also making sure they’re apart of a schedule, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
About: I’ve had Dogs since I was little. I currently have 2 German Short Haired Pointers which is a very high energy breed dog. With that being said I’m comfortable and able to care for small to big dogs including high energy fur babies🐾 I’ve also been a Nanny for 4 years and care for toddlers so i’m ready for anything! I’m currently working part time as a nanny while attending ECC for Nursing. This allows me to have a flexible schedule to care for your pet(s)! Having owned dogs my whole life i’m comfortable with any care your pet may need. For example, giving dogs medication as my own dog is very stubborn about it.
“Lizzie was great and accommodating! She was able to do a few house visits during the holidays, which can be very hard to find. My dog also gives up on all training when it’s cold outside but she made it work and provided thorough updates. I would definitely book her again.”

“When you have a Senior dog with medical issues, you just can't take them anywhere. Luckily we found a new local sitter on Rover.com. Jeannie was very welcoming during our meet and greet. I was nervous, because we had a negative experience with our previous sitter. She accepted Lucy Mae and took great care of her. Jeannie was flexible when we extended her stay by one day. We received a daily picture showing a happy pup. Grateful our Beagle did so well❤️ She did so well, she was even asked back!”
“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!”
