“Kim is great!! Both Milo and Daisy love her so much! So far, best sitter for my babies. Every time we needed someone to take care of them, she was available for us! As long as my babies are happy and loved, we are happy!”
“Miriam & Terrell were the absolute best! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. First time leaving my pup for more than just a few days & they gave me daily updates & lots of pics! 1000/10 thank you so much!”
“Beyonka did a great job. She always sent us pictures and Denver looked very happy when I picked him up, he was clean and smelling very good and it looked like he had a blast with her dogs. I absolutely recommend her.”
“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.”
“Susan was absolutely amazing with Paganini! 🐾 She has a big backyard where he got to run and play all day, and she took him on long, happy walks too. Throughout the day, she sent me tons of adorable photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Paganini came home happy, calm, and completely well-rested—a true sign he was loved and well cared for. She was also incredibly kind, communicative, and accommodating with our schedule, especially knowing we have a baby at home. On top of that, she made sure Paganini got his daily medication without any issues, which was such a relief. I honestly can’t recommend Susan enough—she treated Paganini like one of her own, and we feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Michele was great! Our 5yr old dog was only babysat one time ever prior to this. So he's a bit nervous with strangers. We were out of state on vacation for 2wks and we were worried how he'd do. Well Michele sent pics and msgs everyday we asked which was great! Michele did an exceptional job! We are super pleased with Michele and would use her again for sure.”
“Fanny is an excellent person and dog sitter, very dedicated. She sent us a daily photo and message with updates about Max. They went on many walks and our cocker spaniel was so happy to be with her. I 100% recommend her, great area and very affordable! Thank you so much Fanny!”
“Brian and his family are amazing! He is patient, attentive and caring. This was my second time using rover, and needed someone last min, he was flexible and communicative, and sent tons of updates and pics that helped put my mind at ease. I highly recommend!”
“Midas had the best time with Beatrice. She took him to see all his farm friends, he got plenty of long walks, extra cuddles, and basically everything a pup could ask for. She asked all the right questions and was 100% prepared for this big ball of fluff. The pictures we received were easily the best parts of our days. I cant say enough good things about how good it felt to leave Midas in such capable hands. Cheers!”
“Kasey was awesome! We had to attend a funeral out of town and booked with her last minute. Our young rescue dog, Cooper had never spent the night with anyone else but us since we rescued him so we were nervous. Kasey was so understanding and patient as she walked me through the process. Cooper was accepted by their lovely dogs right away at their meet and greet. The drop off was easy and Kasey communicated all throughout Cooper's stay. That really put us at ease. She was super flexible with the pick up which we really appreciated. We will definitely be booking with Kasey next time we go out of town.”
“Miranda came through for us in the last second when someone cancelled 2 days before our trip. Appreciate that so much. She sent constant updates of the pups and what they were up to and my dogs came and crashed which tells me they had a blast based on the pics and how tired they were :) Thanks Miranda!”
“Sonja did an amazing job taking care of our dog. He felt right at home and loved playing in her back yard. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Sonja as a dog sitter.”
“Elizabeth was an amazing find on Rover! Starting from the meet and greet, she was a pleasure to work with and we couldn’t be more pleased with how well she took care of our baby girl Sophie! From updates including pictures to flexibility when we made it home early from a road trip, she made the experience so easy! I would definitely use Elizabeth again ?”
“I’m so happy that we found Sylvie!! I was so nervous about leaving my 5 month old puppy with her but she had a great time!! Sylvie sent photos and videos every day during my dogs 5 day stay which was great! Will definitely be sending Riley again!”
“Keith was great with our French bulldog. Very responsive, clean home, and super easy to work with while we went away for a week long vacation. Will definitely use again!”
“The only sitter I’ll ever leave my old boy with again 😍🐾👍 Kathleen is so genuinely warm… I now have an elderly dog with a lot of medication and pain issues and she took superb care of him as if he were her own!!!! I got tons of updates and pictures and I always felt that he was in the best care!! I love the fact that her and her husband work from home so they’re always home with the animals❤️❤️ I cannot say enough good things about Kathleen. We’ve been using her for years now and she has always come through for last second dates…. Simply the best thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work you do.❤️❤️”
“Balbina took excellent care of my dog while I was out of town. He was in high spirits when I picked him up, and she kept me updated throughout his stay. Will rebook in the future.”
“Ashley was an amazing dog sitter. I am so glad I found her! My dog came home just as happy and fluffy as he was before our trip. He got all the love and attention and was in great hands! Ashley was so accommodating, flexible, and organized. She kept me updated with photos and is so friendly. A 10/10 experience from start to finish.”
“Marko was fantastic. He kept us updated about our dog Luna and sent many pictures. It was very reassuring to know she was so well taken care of especially since Luna is young and fairly new to our family. Would highly recommend!!”

“Great,excellent, A1, if your on the fence, dont worry about anything. She is the one to book for taking care of your pet. She went above and beyond. Made sure everything was right. And kept my cat well taken care of. I highly, highly recommend. 5 stars isint enough she should get 10 stars.”
“Alexandra was amazing with our dog. She gave so many updates, was responsive to all of my messages, and made me feel so comfortable leaving Max at home where he prefers to be. We will definitely rebook Alexandra the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Cynthia is a real find! We were very anxious about leaving our senior cat, Stephan, but from the very first moment, we knew he was in safe hands. Cynthia was incredibly gentle and attentive to his needs as an older cat. We received regular photo updates and check-ins, which kept us completely at ease. Stephan was calm and content when we returned, and our home was left in perfect order. We will definitely be booking with Cynthia again!”
“Our normal cat sitter had a family emergency and canceled our reservations. Meaghan was willing to help us on short notice. She did a fantastic job. We received daily updates and pictures. We had added a bunch of extra chores for her, one of the cats needing medication as such. She even kept up with vacuuming up the tiny bits of food that can tend to be thrown around when the cats eat. We came home to relaxed kitties and a clean house. We intended to contact her first if we ever have the need. Highly recommend!”
About: Welcome to a true home-away-from-home for your cat. I host only one family’s cat (or cats) at a time, so your pet can enjoy a calm, quiet environment with plenty of personal attention. Cats begin their stay with exclusive access to our large great room, and once they feel comfortable, they are welcome to explore the rest of the house. I’ve loved cats my entire life—and they seem to love me right back. My friends call me the “Neighborhood Cat Lady.” I do have two gentle dogs who grew up with cats and are not cat-aggressive. Most visiting cats give them a hiss or a quick swipe at first, and then everyone settles in and peacefully ignores each other. For cats who would rather relax in a home than stay in a cage, this is a cozy, safe place to stay while you’re away.
“Amber is an amazing pet sitter. Not that you should do this but we booked her last minute and she was very accommodating and flexible. She worked with my other pet sitter and helped with a big task- catching and caring for our chickens bumblefoot. We even had an unfortunate event happen while we were gone and Amber cared for it. We could not be more grateful and couldn’t recommend Amber enough!!!”

I also worked at a pet store for a few months. I’m currently in school and have a part time job, but my mornings during the weekdays from 6 am to 11am are free to walk your dogs. I currently don’t offer pet care in my home, but I’m happy to travel to you. I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while in their own home. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also send updates and photos so you know they’re doing great while you’re away.

“I needed a last-minute drop-in visit for my rabbits while I was out of town, and she was able to help on very short notice. She communicated well, checked on my pets promptly, and made sure they had what they needed. I really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to help when I was feeling worried. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have had pet dogs and cats my whole life, and they have always been a cherished part of my family. I currently live in a non-pet-friendly apartment building, so Rover gives me the opportunity to care for pets while I can’t have one of my own. I work at a warehouse on second shift, so I am gone in the evenings and head back home around 1am. When housesitting, I’m able to provide care to your pets during the day until I leave for work at 3:30 pm i will do my best to adhere to your normal routine with your pets, and ensure that they are exercised, fed, and pottied before I leave for work. It is my goal to adhere to your pets’ normal routine as much as possible. When I am watching someone’s pets for the first time, I request details about their schedule, eating and play habits, special quirks, etc so that I am prepared to give them consistent and attentive care.
“Thanks so much for watching Riggins!!! Your communication was amazing - and we could really feel that he was in good hands!! Ps our neighbor said you were amazing and did such a wonderful job watching him!! Thanks so much!”
About: Hello! I've always had lots of pets growing up and have a love for furry companions. They truly are the heart of the family! Many friends and family will lean on me to watch over pets when they leave town and I'm looking to extend this service out to the community around me. I love walking dogs, playing with pets, and just giving them company. I'm extremely flexible with my schedule since I am a grad student in physical therapy and can accommodate any needs. Open to dog/house sitting, cat sitting, walking, and will include lots of belly scratches to any pets- big or small! I would love to help out in any way I can to make sure your furry family member gets the best care they can get! I can't wait to meet your pets! Until May, I just have class M - F 8a-12p.

I’m extremely respectful of maintaining a home environment and keeping up with a pet’s normal daytime routine!
About: Growing up around my grandma’s kittens and cats gave me an early understanding of feline behavior, comfort, and boundaries. As an adult, I’ve had more hands-on experience caring for cats, which has deepened my appreciation for their unique balance of friendliness and independence. What sets me apart is my patience and respect for letting cats set the pace, along with my experience administering medications mixed into meals when needed. I focus on creating a calm, stress-free environment so cats feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in my presence.

“I absolutely love leaving my dog with Beyonka! My pup is always extremely happy when he goes to her place, and that gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s being well cared for. Every time I pick him up he smells delicious and looks so well-loved. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does. I 100% recommend her—she’s amazing!”
“Miriam was wonderful, absolutely wonderful with Katie, our terrier rescue. She let her sit on her lap while she worked. She had a raincoat, then a winter coat, on her when the weather got colder for her trips outdoors. She furnished these coats, I didn't bring any. A 3-page report card was given to me when I picked Katie up. It detailed her potty breaks and told cute little stories about their day together. I received numerous pics and videos that I thoroughly enjoyed. I met Terrell when I was leaving, and he seemed just as wonderful. I would give her 100 stars if I could.”
“Noah has the best time at daycare with Jennifer! He makes new friends and plays all day! He is tired and happy when I pick him up. He runs from the car to her gate every morning excited to see her and be there.”
About: Animals in general should be loved and protected! I embrace all species and rescue anything in need. I do love animals more than people ;) I have plenty of time for animals in my life. I work 3 hours a day at my kiddos school otherwise I m home with my little guy and chickens. My yard is fenced but I do like taking walks and playing in the yard. I do some dog walking in the neighborhood but am accepting more!
“Yesenia was so great. I was in from out of town and I had a gap between when we needed to be out of the Airbnb and when the class I came for ended. I needed some place to take my dog for a few hours. She was conveniently near where I needed to be. She attentively asked about my dog’s needs (she’s dog-reactive and has anxiety) and provided a safe space for her to be. My dog felt so relaxed that she fell asleep while cuddling with her. Would highly recommend Yesenia’s services!”
“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.”
About: I've been studying dog behavior for over 9 years. I also have experience as a veterinary receptionist and grooming assistant. I train pet dogs on good behavior as well as rehabilitation for fearful or aggressive dogs. Safety is my #1 concern. Every dog that comes into my home is treated like family, as I do my own dogs. I am blessed with a large house that has a separate living quarters for the boarding dogs and a big beautiful fenced yard. Both are kept clean and hazard free. I would love to host your dog and make sure you are worry free while you're away! I work with dogs as a career and am home full time. I have a daily routine that changes depending on what dogs I have. Each dog gets fed once or twice, a day depending on owner preference. For medical or dietary reasons feeding can me more or less frequent. Any medications needed will be given. Each dog gets back yard exercise daily. Of course they get plenty of love! 🐾 Saftey and cleanliness are my top concerns. My home is clean and hazard free. I am "puppy proof" and always vigilant. I have accommodations and experience working with aggressive or reactive dogs and can also accommodate/work with kennel anxitey. I am able to keep dogs separate from my personal dogs if needed. Dogs that are friendly will be able to socialize/play with my very well tempered pack, depending on owner preference. I have a fenced yard and there are no gaps or ways to get out. I can also accommodate jumpers using a long recall leash!

About: I have been around animals my whole life. Growing up, we mainly had cats and dogs, but in recent years we have expanded to fish, birds, and frogs! At the moment, my family has 2 cats, 2 parakeets, and about a million fish. I started pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors as a kid, and now I try to pet sit whenever I am home from college. I am also the primary care taker of my little home zoo. I’m currently home for the summer, and I have really flexible hours! I have several vacations planned for the summer, so I do not currently have a job lined up, which means more time to play with your pets! I am currently not able to care for your pets in my home as my cats are not very accepting of new animals. At your home, I will work with you to learn what is best for your pets! If you have a fenced in yard, that’s great! If not, no worries.

I am currently working in the evenings, but also available every weekend! I would love to care for anyone’s animals whenever they need it !

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life; big medium small. I have always been able to create connections with furry friends by giving them lots of love and attention. I’m very attentive when it comes to taking care of senior dogs and their needs. As well as being just as playful as puppies are. I’m currently on summer break before I go to college to become a pediatrician. This being said, my schedule is very available for a long while! For my dog at home, I treat her like family! I walk her daily, feed her twice a day, and give her snuggles and lots of love. I take her outside in the backyard about every hour in the fenced in backyard and she’ll run around and go nuts chasing her ball, and running after rabbits.
“Renee is a great walker, she is always on time and never missed a day. Shiloh was a very happy dog when she was around. She took care of him like her own and is very personable and has a great personality. I have never had a walker like her. She is truly incredible.”
About: Hi there, my name is Sami! I've lived with dogs my whole life, big and small - some of which include a Golden Retriever, a Yorkie, and a Maltese. My sister occasionally comes over with her Goldendoodle, and I love spending time with my aunt's Bernese Mountain Dogs when I can visit them. I plan to adopt my own dog later in the future, and perhaps enroll them as a therapy dog to bring comfort to others. I've watched both my sister's and parents' dogs while they are away for the day, and I have some experience in caring for them when they were puppies. I used to walk my parents' dogs in the past, as well. I enjoy interacting with dogs as a whole, and I put their safety and comfort first. I'm an introvert who lives a quiet lifestyle, but I also love to have fun, so if your furry friend needs someone to hang out with while you're away, I'll be there for them! NOTE: Though I adore cats, I am unfortunately allergic and therefore cannot interact with them directly if you have any in your home. I can still feed or play with them via a cat teaser or laser pointer, but I cannot pet them or pick them up. :( Currently, I am working full-time at an elementary school in Minooka. However, school is out for the summer until August, so I will be manually updating my Rover schedule to provide some availability Monday through Friday. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available during afternoons and evenings, though prior arrangements in advance can be made for a morning walk or drop-in visit! I will update my schedule as soon as anything changes. If you have any questions regarding my schedule for a particular day or week, please don’t hesitate to message me! IMPORTANT: As per Rover’s Terms of Service, please note that I cannot share private contact details or accept methods of payment outside of Rover. This is for the safety and security of all parties involved. When out on a walk, I will make sure your friend is kept safe and away from hazards or things they may be uncomfortable with. When dropping in for a visit, I will make sure their needs are met and everything is secured for their safety. They would never be left unsupervised, and they'll get lots of love and playtime! I will gladly send photos and text updates upon request. Please do let me know your communication frequency preferences, so I don't accidentally disturb you with messages!
About: I grew up around dogs as my grandma was a verified trainer and breeder. I’ve been around all sizes of dogs ranging from German Shepards to Corgis. I had my own dogs growing up that were professionally trained. While I no longer have my own dog, I am around one constantly and have always had a love for them. I do work the weekends at a restaurant so later at nights but during the weekdays, I am almost always free and in town. I am a night owl but do wake up very easily in the mornings. I plan to follow and abide by any rules or boundaries that the owner sets for their home. I will not able to house any dogs at my own house but will make sure that any doors or yards are locked.
About: My family has been part of Rover for 10 years and have gained a network of regular animals. I have taken care of many types and breeds of animals including my own family pets. I've had 3 dogs, 3 cats, a chinchilla, a guinea pig, and fish so I can handle most animals. Overall, I am pretty open on weekdays after 11:00 am and can do overnight stays as well. I am available all day on weekends as well. I am in an apartment that does not allow pets so I am looking to have time with animals through Rover. I miss my animals back home since I am away at college so I would never put an animal in danger since I know how important a pet can be to someones life.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life! I have experience with dog sitting and dog walking! Always excited to meet a new puppy! I am free all afternoons! But if needed in the morning or evening let me know! I’m always willing to negotiate a schedule to whatever is easiest for you! Unfortunately I am in an apartment so I will not be able to pet sit at my home, but whenever your pet needs to go outside I will keep an eye on them (especially if there is no fence)! I am able to lead a pet into a crate if needed. If there is anything else you would like me to do while with your pet let me know!
About: I have worked in kennel for 2 years. Currently, I work at a vet clinic. I have experience with dogs and cats. I can do drop ins, dog walking, spending overnights with the pets at owners home. I work full time and I am up bright an early. I can let you dogs out before and after work on weekdays. On weekend I can do drop ins, daycare and boarding at the owners house. I have reliable transportation. I will not have pets at my apartment due to size. I'd rather go to the owner's home for an easier transition for the dog/cat. To make it easier, I need a detailed schedule and a phone number to contact owners for updates and photos.
About: Hello! I've always had lots of pets growing up and have a love for furry companions. They truly are the heart of the family! Many friends and family will lean on me to watch over pets when they leave town and I'm looking to extend this service out to the community around me. I love walking dogs, playing with pets, and just giving them company. I'm extremely flexible with my schedule since I am a grad student in physical therapy and can accommodate any needs. Open to dog/house sitting, cat sitting, walking, and will include lots of belly scratches to any pets- big or small! I would love to help out in any way I can to make sure your furry family member gets the best care they can get! I can't wait to meet your pets! Until May, I just have class M - F 8a-12p. From May 13 - July 10th, I will have clinical and be working 40 hours a week with varying start/end times. Completely free on weekends! Very comfortable with working in whatever environment your pet is most comfortable with. Experience with fences, invisible fences, lines, and crating. I’m extremely respectful of maintaining a home environment and keeping up with a pet’s normal daytime routine!
About: I have owned cats for the past 30+ years and owned dogs for the past 12 years. We are an animal loving household that would love to help you out with your pet care needs. I have experience with all ages and sizes of dogs. I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule, so I would be home taking care of your pets needs throughout the day, evening and night. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs for your dog to play with. We have plenty of people in the house to give lots of love, affection and playtime daily. Your pup will be treated like one of our own while they stay with us.

“Kim is great!! Both Milo and Daisy love her so much! So far, best sitter for my babies. Every time we needed someone to take care of them, she was available for us! As long as my babies are happy and loved, we are happy!”
“Beyonka did a great job. She always sent us pictures and Denver looked very happy when I picked him up, he was clean and smelling very good and it looked like he had a blast with her dogs. I absolutely recommend her.”
“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.”
“Susan was absolutely amazing with Paganini! 🐾 She has a big backyard where he got to run and play all day, and she took him on long, happy walks too. Throughout the day, she sent me tons of adorable photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Paganini came home happy, calm, and completely well-rested—a true sign he was loved and well cared for. She was also incredibly kind, communicative, and accommodating with our schedule, especially knowing we have a baby at home. On top of that, she made sure Paganini got his daily medication without any issues, which was such a relief. I honestly can’t recommend Susan enough—she treated Paganini like one of her own, and we feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Brian and his family are amazing! He is patient, attentive and caring. This was my second time using rover, and needed someone last min, he was flexible and communicative, and sent tons of updates and pics that helped put my mind at ease. I highly recommend!”
“Kasey was awesome! We had to attend a funeral out of town and booked with her last minute. Our young rescue dog, Cooper had never spent the night with anyone else but us since we rescued him so we were nervous. Kasey was so understanding and patient as she walked me through the process. Cooper was accepted by their lovely dogs right away at their meet and greet. The drop off was easy and Kasey communicated all throughout Cooper's stay. That really put us at ease. She was super flexible with the pick up which we really appreciated. We will definitely be booking with Kasey next time we go out of town.”
“Miranda came through for us in the last second when someone cancelled 2 days before our trip. Appreciate that so much. She sent constant updates of the pups and what they were up to and my dogs came and crashed which tells me they had a blast based on the pics and how tired they were :) Thanks Miranda!”
“Sonja did an amazing job taking care of our dog. He felt right at home and loved playing in her back yard. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Sonja as a dog sitter.”
“The only sitter I’ll ever leave my old boy with again 😍🐾👍 Kathleen is so genuinely warm… I now have an elderly dog with a lot of medication and pain issues and she took superb care of him as if he were her own!!!! I got tons of updates and pictures and I always felt that he was in the best care!! I love the fact that her and her husband work from home so they’re always home with the animals❤️❤️ I cannot say enough good things about Kathleen. We’ve been using her for years now and she has always come through for last second dates…. Simply the best thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work you do.❤️❤️”
“Balbina took excellent care of my dog while I was out of town. He was in high spirits when I picked him up, and she kept me updated throughout his stay. Will rebook in the future.”
“Ashley was an amazing dog sitter. I am so glad I found her! My dog came home just as happy and fluffy as he was before our trip. He got all the love and attention and was in great hands! Ashley was so accommodating, flexible, and organized. She kept me updated with photos and is so friendly. A 10/10 experience from start to finish.”
“Marko was fantastic. He kept us updated about our dog Luna and sent many pictures. It was very reassuring to know she was so well taken care of especially since Luna is young and fairly new to our family. Would highly recommend!!”
“This was our first time leaving our pup for more than a day and Jill was so reassuring that Remi would be just fine! And she was! Our corgi is still very much a pup and has lots of energy so we always worry about her inability to relax and recharge. Jill sent multiple pics of her relaxing and settling in which made us feel much better!! Remi came home worn out (in the best way) and seemed like she had the best time. Thank you, Jill!!!”
“Katy was amazing with our 25 lb goldendoodle! We reached out last minute as our typical dog sitter cancelled without much notice. Katy responded quickly and was willing to watch our pup for 5 nights!! She sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend and we knew our dog was in great hands! He was happy and healthy when we picked him up, and he was tired out from all the fun walks and play dates he went on. Thank you again Katy, we will definitely be reaching out to rebook in the future!”
“Patricia took amazing care of my fur babies. There were a lot of storms while we were gone and my dogs are very anxious I’m so grateful they were in such amazing care.”
About: Hello! We absolutely love all dogs. We have a beautiful 4 year old Weimaraner who we came into our life as a pup. We also have had two prior to her. We are comfortable with all aged dogs from the feisty puppies to the more quiet seniors. We have lots of experience with young puppies, senior dogs who need medication (oral pills or otherwise), and shy or energetic dogs. Linda even worked as a Vet Tech in high school and was a dog walker in college. We both are retired and love to sit outside with our dog and go for walks. As a visitor to our home, we are open to whatever method you employ for your dog’s safety. We have experience with crate training and are happy to continue those practices if you wish. Otherwise, your dog is free to roam our fenced yard and home. We are both retired, so have lots of time for your pup. Our dog always gets to go out whenever she wants. So will yours. We usually walk our dog in the morning afternoon and evening. If your dog is up to that, we will have her join us. We have a fenced in yard for the dogs to enjoy whenever they want. Our house is very dog friendly. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture. We do not leave any food out and have a dog proof garbage can too.
“Renae was great with Billy! We met up before the stay to introduce the dogs and everyone was very friendly. She was also very flexible, offering to extend the stay when I was concerned my flights were going to be impacted by weather.”
“Lily was so happy staying with Katie and Tim! I can tell she had a lot of walks and playtime because she’s pretty tired from all the fun. I got plenty of pictures and updates during our time away and always felt in the loop. Thanks Katie and Tim!”
“Felicia took great care of our Golden Retriever! Her dogs were wonderful company for sweet canine. She also sent us video updates which were very appreciated. Will be returning to Felicia in the future!”
