Deb is the best with our Gus - he is HIGH energy, and she always welcomes him with open arms! He practically jumps out of the car when we pull into her driveway each time. She also has a few of her own pups and usually a few guest pups, so it’s always fun for Gus to have playmates. We would be lost without her!

Lauren and her family took such good care of our dog Sawyer! This was our first time being away from our puppy so we were worried she was going to be scared, but she had so much fun playing with their dog Zoe while we were away. Lauren sent us pictures everyday to let us know how she was doing. By the time we got back, Sawyer was already attached to Lauren, Zoe, and the rest of the family.

Really appreciate all of Noor’s Communication.l Plus all the love her family members have to apply. We’re thrilled to have a found a caring sitter.

Wonderful, fun place for my sweet little dog to spend his vacation. Ewa and her husband truly love dogs. They send lots of photos and videos. Their dogs are so mellow about having even small dogs around. Mochi is well taken care of there. He loves going and I love being confident he is happy there.

Naomi was great!! She was very prepared and ready to learn about and to care for our dogs just the way they needed. Our dogs had the best time taking long walks, lounging, and looking out the big window. She took the time to introduce our dogs and Milo and they became great friends. The house was quiet, very clean, and perfect for our dogs. We loved seeing the daily photos while we were traveling. Definitely would recommend!

Roman was Charise’s first ever Rover dog and we were really happy to have connected with her for our 5-day trip. Charise was a great sitter—she sent detailed updates about how Roman was doing with Navi and hope he was settling in while we were away. Her home is very clean and Charise is a very warm and welcoming host. Navi is just the cutest little nugget ever, and I could tell immediately Roman would feel right at home with Charise. Our big GSD is a big baby and throws a bit of a fit every time we leave, but Charise and Navi were patient with him while he warmed up to the idea of us being away—by the time we returned, he was fully integrated into their little family. Roman is allowed on the couch and bed for cuddles, and Charise has a full basement for the dogs to run around and play, a small yard, and she takes them together on long walks. Roman came home fully pooped from a week of playing with Navi and we’ll definitely be using Charise in the future!

Obi seemed to really enjoy his stay with Brian! Obi is sensitive, so he will get sick from separation anxiety after I pick him up from a stay or he will be very clingy. He’s been completely normal since I’ve picked him up and he is doing perfectly fine! Brian provided me updates daily that eased my own separation anxiety. Thank you, Brian!

I highly recommend Olga. She truly loves our dog. She gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She made sure our dog got plenty of exercise with daily walks and even took him to the park to play and explore. She even insisted to home our dog for another night for free so we can have good rest coming from our vacation. She genuinely cares and we could tell our dog was happy and well taken care of. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her again in the future.

I can't recommend Mario enough for anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter! Mario watched my dog Dean for five days, and I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. He sent me daily pictures and videos of Dean, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Mario made sure Dean received his medication on time and gave him plenty of love and attention. I could tell that Dean was in good hands the whole time. Thank you, Mario, for your excellent care and professionalism. I will definitely be reaching out to you again in the future!

She truly cares about animals and took wonderful care of my babies. She cleaned the litter box daily, cleaned the water fountain when she noticed it was collecting too much hair.

I am so blessed to have found her not far from home to watch over my 13 months old high energy puppy. After the first dog sitter he came to crash in his crate. He had no energy to not even jump. As first time dog owner- I have no idea what I’m doing but Jackie sure is a dog whisperer.

This is the first time we’ve had someone (who is not our family) watch our dog. I was very nervous especially be in Poppy is young - she’s just a year old. Noor watched Poppy for a day. Noor was so patient with her - poppy was initially apprehensive to go in their house, but Noor took her time to ensure Poppy was comfortable. Noor asked questions about feeding, walks, general behavior & preferences. this put me at ease knowing she was thinking these. We did this trial daycare in preparation for a longer stay for Poppy later this year. Noor was also very communicative with texts and also a video! We were happy with the care poppy received and plan to book with Noor again!

Robby & Nikki are the friendliest, most accommodating folks around! Our dog always has the best time at daycare and I love that they are located right in my neighborhood— I feel like they provide the care and attention that a larger daycare could not. They always send the best action shots of Pierogi as well! Highly recommend.

About: I have grown up with many animals, including exotic animals. We have a grooming station in home and love animals of all types and breeds. I haven’t accept exotic animals as well. I have owned horses, mini pigs inside my house, sugar, gliders, chinchillas, hamsters, lizards, cat, dogs, ferrets, I’m probably forgetting a few more. I have an open schedule and care for my pets very well. My dog even gets dental cleanings every year. My favorites get their nails cut and bathed weekly. I have multiple dog beds, a cat tower tons of toys for all different red animals. Have a fenced in backyard, grooming, station, and home. I have extra cages or tanks if need be. I prefer not to kettle animals unless they need to be under the owners agreement.

Claire documented walks including duration, route and distance, and meals including time, amount of food eaten by each dog. Her feedback on my dogs' personality traits was spot on as well, demonstrating her care and attention. I would wholeheartedly recommend Claire to anyone in need of a trustworthy sitter. THANK YOU, CLAIRE!

Janette was AMAZING!!! Not only was she very thorough, she was so incredibly kind and caring. Not once did I ever have any hesitation about her caring for our 2 dogs and cat while we were away for an overnight Spring Break surprise. I felt comfortable with Janette immediately upon meeting her and knew this would be a wonderful addition! She was AMAZING with our pets and sent updates and photos with every walk. Before she left, I knew we'd be using her again - she really took the panic and uncertainty out of pet care while we were away.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from growing up with them to raising my own now. I currently care for a black Lab with a strong personality, so I understand leash control, structure, and clear boundaries. I’m calm, consistent, and confident with all breeds, including high-energy or reactive dogs. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, cleanup, and calming routines. Whether your dog needs structured exercise or just a reliable visitor, I’m ready to show up. I work part-time with a consistent, flexible routine that allows me to care for your dogs during the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins: • Mondays after 11:00 AM • Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 8:00 AM If your dog needs structured exercise, calm energy, or just a mid-morning break, I’ve got you covered. While I do not offer in-home boarding, I provide dependable drop-ins and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. I live with my own dog, Sam, who is reactive to other animals, so I cannot bring pets into my home — but this also means I understand how to work calmly and respectfully with dogs that may need space or structure. I’m confident handling leash reactivity, high-energy dogs, and special instructions.

About: I’m pet lover with a degree in animal behavior looking to help you care for your furry friends! I love spending time with animals and have found ways to incorporate that into my professional and personal life. I’ve worked as a bather at a grooming salon, provided daily care for all the animals at a livestock and pet rescue organization, and as a behavior intern for dogs at an animal shelter. These jobs have given me years of hands on experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, cows, and horses. I’ve also had experience providing basic grooming services, like nail-clipping and ear cleaning, and using positive reinforcement training for behavior modification in dogs. I have bachelors degrees in Biology and Psychology and a PhD in Animal Behavior. I also have personal experience caring for my own pets, cats, hamsters, a turtle, and a dog, and regularly pet sitting for friends. All of these skills give me the background knowledge and experience to give your pet the best possible care while you’re away! I’m currently working with a variable schedule so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I’m generally available afternoons and evenings but check my calendar because my schedule changes! Your pet’s safety is the most important thing to me. I pride myself on having clear and frequent communication with pet owners while I’m taking care of their pets and I will keep you updated with pictures and updates at least once per visit!

Deb is the best with our Gus - he is HIGH energy, and she always welcomes him with open arms! He practically jumps out of the car when we pull into her driveway each time. She also has a few of her own pups and usually a few guest pups, so it’s always fun for Gus to have playmates. We would be lost without her!

Lauren sent us pictures everyday to let us know how she was doing. By the time we got back, Sawyer was already attached to Lauren, Zoe, and the rest of the family.

Roman was Charise’s first ever Rover dog and we were really happy to have connected with her for our 5-day trip. Charise was a great sitter—she sent detailed updates about how Roman was doing with Navi and hope he was settling in while we were away. Her home is very clean and Charise is a very warm and welcoming host. Navi is just the cutest little nugget ever, and I could tell immediately Roman would feel right at home with Charise. Our big GSD is a big baby and throws a bit of a fit every time we leave, but Charise and Navi were patient with him while he warmed up to the idea of us being away—by the time we returned, he was fully integrated into their little family. Roman is allowed on the couch and bed for cuddles, and Charise has a full basement for the dogs to run around and play, a small yard, and she takes them together on long walks. Roman came home fully pooped from a week of playing with Navi and we’ll definitely be using Charise in the future!

About: 23 years of dedication & genuine love for what I do. I've pretty much done it all except for training. Primarily grooming but also have extensive experience with walking, boarding, day care, home/vacation visits & house sits. I've been a home groomer for the past 8 years but due to allergies, need to switch modes. Over those years I regularly attended workshops & seminars to continue to educate myself & hone my craft. Including certification courses in puppy handling, senior care, proper sanitization, business compliance, skin assessment, & CPR. This only means I have been educated on these subjects, I am not an expert. As mentioned, I was a home groomer so I'll be turning my grooming room into an area for daycare/boarding. I am home based and plan to stay that way. Pets in my home will have a designated area for eating & sleeping but will have freedom to walk about for the most part. I have a large, fenced back yard with plenty of space to run & play. The yard will be the primary potty area. Walks are available for an added charge. Caring for pets in the clients home will be based on the instructions given by owner.

She is thoughtful, kind, skilled with dogs and cats, and an excellent communicator. Hazel can be reactive to other dogs on walks; Claire was familiar with the ractive dogs and managed it with well. She also messaged us once a day while we were away with details and pictures. We have already booked with Claire again.

About: I’m newer to professional pet care, but I grew up with pets and have always felt comfortable around animals. I frequently help friends with their dogs, especially with walks and basic care. It is important to give each pup calm, focused attention. With my background as a detail oriented and caring social worker, I bring reliability, patience, and genuine compassion to every dog I look after. Unfortunately, I am unable to have dogs bigger than 60lbs in my building. I work in education so I am usually home by 4pm! But it also means I am available full time during the breaks and Holidays to spend time with your doggo! During the week I work school hours but stay home for the weekend! I am a pet free household on a quiet side street. I am ready to give your pup all the love and attention. I have a fenced in entrance/small yard. I am childfree and it’s just me and my boyfriend! We both work in education and have so much time and love to give.

About: I started pet sitting as a teenager for neighbors and family friends. Since then, I have watched all types of dogs, including senior dogs. I became a dog owner for the first time in my mid-twenties. He was an elderly beagle mix with health issues. After he passed, I grieved until I was ready to own a dog again. Then I had ten wonderful years with Shadow, a husky mix who was a stray that made his way to a rescue. He bravely fought lymphoma for 1.5 years before succumbing to the disease. Through that time, I provided medication, took him for chemotherapy, and spoiled him until he decided it was time to cross the rainbow bridge. Shadow's absence still leaves a void in my heart that is filled by caring for other people's dogs. I love all types of dogs, and have experience with small to large, young and old, as well as dogs living with various health issues. Giving dog owners the security and piece of mind knowing their furry family members are safe and sound while they are away is a responsibility that I take very seriously. My husband and I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and our backyard is fully fenced. As a dog lover himself, anyone who books with me gets their pup double the love. My full time job is permanently remote, so I am able to be at home with your dog at all times. No matter their schedule, I can meet it because I can be here to fulfill their needs. I have a fenced in yard for safety, and a dog-friendly neighborhood where your dog will feel right at home. I know every dog has different needs, so I can follow the habits you have created with them to maintain consistency. Whether that is crate training or sleeping on the couch, I will follow your instructions. I know that dogs are family, and treat them as such.

The guys were great with Louie again this week. They’re always reliable and keep him social and well cared for while I’m away! I cannot recommend them enough! My travel schedule has increased temporarily and it brings so much peace of mind knowing Louie people who truly care! Louie is extremely excited to see them during every drop off.

Had a great visit with Merrick for Gunter. Love when we get a vacation and Gunter does too. Merrick is great with providing updates throughout the stay and answering any questions that arise. A very reliable stay for our anxious dog!
