“My two large dogs were very happy and relaxed at Sarah's house. They enjoyed her wonderful fenced backyard and were able to see out of her windows easily. It was a bonus that her two sons were around to provide extra cuddles and scritches. Excellent communication throughout the weekend, and she sent wonderful photos.”
“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”
“Kari is so wonderful with the animals she cares for. I could tell by the way my dog Ruger acted as soon as he entered her home. Usually when I pick him up, he let's me know that he's not pleased I was gone, but after a stay with Kari he is totally calm and happy. Thanks for taking such great care of my boy!”
“I am always confident whenever my dog Blu stars with Tara. She constantly updates with photos and always asks the necessary questions. My dog came home smelling good, happy and wore out. Tara will always be my first choice for boarding because she goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my dog.”
“Rebecca took excellent care of Cashew! Not only was she a pleasure to communicate with, but she kept me updated with photos and videos of Cashew having fun with Moose. We just got home and Cashew is so calm. I know that he is wore out from all of the fun that he had from his overnight stay! I highly recommend Rebecca.”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Ark! He is a young, high-energy puppy who can definitely be a handful, but she took such great care of him and kept me updated throughout his stay. It was clear that she was patient, attentive, and genuinely cared about his well-being. Ark came home happy, healthy, and tired—which is not an easy accomplishment! I also really appreciated how welcoming she was and how comfortable she made the whole experience. I would trust her with Ark again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you so much for everything, Ashley!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old! Currently I have a 85 lb lab/pit mix, and a 65 lb mut! I love to play with your dogs by playing with their toys with them, talking them on long walks, giving all the cuddles the want, loading them up with love and pets, and staying on their routine like they would if you were there! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible! Willing to work with all routines and schedules. Also willing to bring them to the dog park! Your fur babies are in great hands with me! I almost always have open availability, just let me know what you need! Available as early as 8 am and as late as you need for the rest of the day. I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies of my own to keep them company. I also don’t mind animals being in my vehicle so I can take your fur baby to the dog park. I also love exercise so long walks are perfectly fine with me. Since my schedule is open I can keep up with your fur babies routine.
About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats with a variety of needs. For the last four years of my grandfather's life, I cared for his diabetic cat by feeding her on a strict schedule and administering insulin injections as directed. In my current work as an in-home caregiver, I also care for one of my client's cats by feeding and watering him, making sure he has everything he needs, and giving him affection on his terms. I believe every cat has their own personality and comfort level. Whether your cat is social and loves attention or prefers their space, I'm happy to follow their lead while carefully following your care instructions to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable.
“cameron is awesome! He is great with our kitties amd extremely reliable. he even checked on our house when we got a notification that water was running. he is a great sitter and he was willing to go the extra mile. highly recommend!!!”
“Loved having Mary take care of my cat! She was very communicative from the beginning. This is the first time I've used Rover, and it was so reassuring to have detailed reports and several pictures per visit. She also scheduled a pre drop-in meeting with me to get a feel for the space and meet my cat. I will definitely hire her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for drop-ins!”
About: I’ve also grown up around cats my whole life. My family had several cats over the years, including Sassy, Dean, Muggzie, and Soxi, who have all since passed away. When I was around 12, my dad found a stray kitten that I helped raise and named Sophie (who I believe may be part Siamese). We also began caring for another stray cat we started feeding, took to the vet, and named Frankie. These are the two cats we currently care for. Because of this experience, I’m comfortable with both very affectionate, relaxed cats as well as more independent or temperamental personalities, and I always try to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.
