Personalized care for your dog or cat - Cumberland
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Cumberland
“Samantha was great! She sent me pictures and updates everyday without my having to ask. Her home was clean and her dog was friendly. I will definitely utilize her services again!!”
“Christopher is great: friendly, a very good communicator, and you can tell he genuinely enjoys pets. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a caring sitter for your furry family members! 😀”
“RB and Darwin had a wonderful weekend with Brook. I was a bit nervous because I had never left our 4 legged kids with anyone but Brook was amazing. Sent me pics and video and took perfect care of our boys. Would most definitely recommend. Very happy.”
“This is the second year I have used Samantha to watch Nala. Nala seems to have a good time running and playing. I will continue to use her because I know my dog is in good hands.”
“Our dog loved staying with Nicole & her family! She was responsive & sent us pictures and updates daily! She made sure that our dog felt like he was part of their family! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe family to watch their family while they are away! I will be using Nicole again in the future!”
“This was our kitten’s first time staying away from home, and Shelby made it care-free and easy! She kept such a close eye on our kitten, even if the kitten didn’t necessarily want her too, haha! She made Willow feel so comfortable that by the end she was snuggling with Shelby! Looking forward to the next stay!”
“Ms Sharon has kept my fur baby several times when I work out of town. She sends updates/pictures throughout Cali’s stay with her and she doesn’t hesitate to reach out to me with any concerns or questions. She was my first Rover experience and will continue to be Cali’s caretaker anytime boarding is needed. If I could give her more than 5 stars I definitely would.”
“Tammy was amazing! As soon as I met her, it was clear she is a dog lover. I was very comfortable leaving Furby with her. She sent me lots of pics and a video. She assured me he was being well taken care of. I’m confident Furby received a lot of love. I would highly recommend Tammy and I will definitely book with her again. Thanks Tammy!”
“Debbie and Jeffrey are amazing care givers! Our dog is always well cared for and he loves staying there. They are flexible and communicate regularly, sending pictures and updates. They are my permanent option for my dog Loki.”
“Jess did a great job! Her communication was excellent and she treated our Molly just like she was her own dog. Molly got along great with Jess, her husband, and their cute little dog. It was a great experience, and we hope to use her again soon.”
“Definitely recommend. My big ole dog gave his favorable review as he hopped out and ran up to start his repeat visit. Great companionship with Brooke’s family and dogs. Good communication. Will absolutely use again.”
“Desiree is wonderful! She gives lots of photos and updates, which is so nice when away for a long time. I’ve left my dog overnight with her twice now and will definitely use her again. Thank you!”
“Gabriel is an outstanding host. He was very attentive, from the beginning, and took very good care of Luna throughout her stay with him. I was extremely satisfied with his service.”
“Returning client here. You won’s find a better sitter for your pet! Tosha and her family are such good people and really good with dogs! Highly recommend!”
“Janis was wonderful. She took great care of our senior dog and sent us daily updates, photos and videos. We will definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”
“Jacklyn took such great care of our Rosie! She sent lots of updates and we could tell Rosie felt really comfortable in her home. We have Jacklyn booked again for an upcoming trip in a few weeks!”
“Everything was great. I appears that my dog Jake like it there. He got a lot of attention. It also appears that Sheila and her husband enjoyed having Jake at their house for six overnights. Sheila sent me a lot of pictures and kept me informed about how Jake was doing. Sheila said that she primarily takes small dogs, but that she will occasionally take a big dog like Jake (Lab), as long as the big dog is well behaved. I believe that Jake was well behaved at her house. I will have to check with Sheila to see if she will take him again in the future.”
“Yelena was very sweet with my dog she sent multiple pictures and gave updates daily. My dog can be very shy and I could see from the pictures my dog was comfortable being with Yelena and having fun with her and her dogs.”

“Janis went above and beyond checking on our cats while we were out of town. She even made sure to check on our cat who is afraid of strangers to make sure she was well. Even when she walked into a stressful incident with one of our cats, she was able to address it and calm him down. I really appreciated all the love and attention she shared with our cats. I also enjoyed all the photos and detailed notes when she stopped by. We knew Janis was a perfect fit upon our first meeting. My son said as she left : you can tell she is a good person who loves animals. I couldn't agree more.”
“Kristina was fantastic, did everything I requested and made sure my house was safe and locked up after every visit. She also spent time getting my timid cat to warm up to her. Definitely will request again when I travel! Thank you!”
“Autumn was wonderful with my elderly cat! She took care of everything and gave thorough updates. She also went above and beyond with cleaning up after his messes. I didn’t have to worry about a thing with Autumn!”
“Trinity did an excellent job and provided peace of mind while we were on vacation! Would highly recommend! The daily check-ins and pics were very nice as well! Thanks again!”
About: I have been sitting for my grandparents for about two years. I was lucky enough to care for their senior and work with his health problems. I specialize in cleaning up untimely dinner regurgitation as well as warding off obese cats from stealing their sibling's food.
“Lily was amazing!! Nervous to leave our kitties alone for the first time using Rover, but I can now say my boyfriend and I were super happy with it. Will be sure to request her next time :)”
“You absolutely NEED TO HIRE Natalie!! Natalie is the best! She took care of my Kitties over the holiday break and she gave them so much TLC while I was gone! I could tell they had received so much attention because when I got back they where acting totally normal- they were happy to see me and resumed their normal routine but they did not seem starved for attention like previous prolonged trips. My one Kitty needs daily medicine and she gave me updates on about his medication & how he was doing. My other Kitty is more resistant at first w/new people but before I knew it she was playing and purring w/Natalie like her long lost friend! Natalie sends a lot of great pictures & provides detailed updates every visit. I also loved how she picked up on details about them/ their normal behaviors/quirks that usually only the owner knows, that gave me the reassurance that I knew my instincts where spot on when I hired her- she clearly loves animals & gives the best care! I could write a novel on her review, even my family I was visiting noted how exceptional she was when I shared my daily pictures and notes from her, everyone said Wow, she’s a keeper! You will not have any worries while you are gone when Natalie is taking care of them!”
“We’ve booked Samantha three times in the last two years. We know we can trust our kitties in Samantha’s care and experience. She’s a tremendous support and resource and hope to continue using her services for many more years.”
“Kylie did. Great job looking after our shy kitties for 10 days. Knew just how to approach them so one even came out to socialize ! We were very happy knowing they were being so well cared for.”
“Alexandria was very attentive to my pets and provided great care. She was also very easy to communicate with and she ensured she followed the directions I left for her. I felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands while I was away.”
“I love knowing I can count on Kort to give my sweet girl all the love and attention she needs while I am away! He always goes above and beyond to ensure both she and my home are well taken care of. If there is any type of schedule change or unexpected event, he's quick to outreach and communicate with me for resolution. Can't recommend Kort enough!”
“Mindy did an excellent job taking care of our two cats while we were away for several weeks! She made sure to keep us updated with lots of pictures and information which really made us feel comfortable while away. She kept their litter clean, bowls clean and full, as well as played with and brushed them! Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Jeanette and family were awesome with our cat during her 9 day boarding. They sent me photos or videos most days. Pick up and drop off were seamless. Our cat was no doubt given love and attention. Will definitely ask her to be Heidi’s sitter again!”
“Amanda was incredible! She came and hung out with my cat and sent me multiple photos each time she came. She even came to check on him after a storm to see if he was okay. I would definitely book with her again.”
“My cat, Foster, is very needy and any little thing upsets him so I decided to schedule a house sitter rather than drop-in visits. Malika was great, sending pictures and making sure both Foster and I were okay. :-) I will be sure to reach out to her again when I travel!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for cats of all personalities—from shy rescues to confident, playful cats. My own three cats have taught me how to read body language, understand moods, and create a space where every cat feels safe and at ease. I’m passionate about keeping cats healthy and happy, and I take pride in providing extra attention to the small details that make a big difference, like maintaining spotless litter boxes, offering daily play and enrichment, and ensuring each cat has a comfortable, quiet space if they need it.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Cumberland
“Kingsley had so much fun and slept for a very long time once she got home! Shelby was amazing with her, had great communication, and provided pictures. Kingsley can’t wait until her next visit!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies and more since I was a child. I love fur babies and will give your baby the love and care he/she needs when you are away. I am home and can give the attention and care your pet needs. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily fit in a walk, potty time or play time. I stay outside with my dog and cats while they play in the yard and on the large patio. Inside we all hang out together in the large living area, but I also have another room with a gate where a pet can go if she needs some space. I can have your dog sleep in the crate or outside the crate, whichever makes her the most comfortable and happy.
“Deborah and Jeffrey are warm and they genuinely love dogs. I’ve booked doggy day care with them for my dog several times now. They’re very good at communication and taking care of my fur baby as their own. I highly recommend them!”
About: My name is Jess and I am a graduate of Purdue’s Veterinary Nursing program! I worked in a clinic for several years and have since transitioned to a work from home role. Working from home gives me amazing flexibility to care for your dog! I have experience with fear free handling and am capable of caring for special needs and senior dogs. I am also eager to care for your energetic puppies as I love going on long walks. I am able to administer any medication that your pet may need. My experience in the clinic at Purdue has given me extensive knowledge about animal care. I would be so happy to provide your best friend with love while you’re away! Working from home allows me to have great flexibility to care for your pup! I am able to provide frequent potty breaks and tend to your pups needs throughout the day. Pets are treated like family here and I will make it my priority to make sure your pup is comfortable! I have one small dog and a cat. My cat is very friendly with dogs and enjoys playing with them.
“Oh my gosh, my pup was exhausted when he got home! Ramsey has never been away from us since we got him in April, and Clint said he did great plus mad friends! We will be setting our boy up for weekly visits!”
About: I have had dogs in my family my whole life and ever since moving away I knew I needed my own, his name is Mac! I’ve watched my neighbors and friends dogs many times in the past as well. I am currently working from home, so I am able to be there the entire time to let your pups out and give them lots of love and attention! Love walking and spending time outside, so why not have some pups join me! Bringing your own crates and beds are optional, we have extras if needed. More than happy to pick-up and drop off.
About: I’m a dog dad myself and have a love for all kinds of pets. Anywhere I go, dogs get pets and greetings before the humans 😅 I have experience with more high needs dogs, as my own dog has digestive issues and requires prescription food, daily medication by mouth with each meal, and monthly injections. I have also dog sat for family friends for many years, giving me experience with insulin injections and specialized feeding schedules. My parents have 3 cats and I’ve spent many weekends taking care of their babies while they’re traveling. My availability is very flexible! During the holidays, I’m available for drop ins and dog walks for anyone traveling for the holidays! During my normal work week, I can easily schedule my days to accommodate dog walks or drop ins to let your furry family members out to potty while you’re away! Weekends are completely open as well! I live in a house with my dog. We have a big grassy yard (unfenced) and plenty of indoor space to play as well! My neighborhood has a nature park and a paved trail for walks. I’m open to watching pets in my home and I can easily come check on yours when you’re away!
About: I got my first baby when I was around 9 years old. Pets are BKA best friends! I believe you get the love that you give when it comes to our pets! I’m extremely flexible! I welcome anyone needing flexibility or long-term set schedules! I am willing to work out something any day of the week Sunday to Saturday! I live in a great area to take daily walks. I have children who have more than enough love to go around to make any and all pets feel loved and welcome. I do a lot of traveling and love to pet sit in new cities! I’ll be in Nyc this Holiday season for the third time. My schedule is very flexible! I can work something out any time or day of the week. I have plenty of time to pet sit, I love doing it! I care for pets depending on what the client prefers/ what their routine is. At home, I have children with plenty of love to go around.
About: Dogs have always been part of my life, but raising our mini Goldendoodle, Benny, since he was 9 weeks old has given me hands on experience with puppy training, crate training, potty training, bell training, socialization, routines, and helping dogs feel secure in a home environment. I especially enjoy working with puppies and younger dogs who benefit from consistency, structure, play, and interaction throughout the day. We also love slower paced and older dogs, though I always want to be upfront that Benny is still young and playful. I value communication, hospitality, and making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. My goal is for your dog to feel like they are staying with extended family, not just being watched. I work for myself, so I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home throughout the week. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches of time and will be part of our normal daily rhythm, including walks, outdoor time, play, cuddles, and relaxing at home. We are a calm, loving family with two kids who genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Benny loves having dog friends around, and we enjoy creating a home environment that feels relaxed, welcoming, and engaging for dogs who enjoy companionship, affection, and structure. We have a large fenced backyard with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, explore, and potty comfortably. Inside the home, we have flexible spaces depending on your dog’s needs, including a tiled basement level for play and movement and a kitchen area that can be separated from the rest of the home for puppies or dogs still working on potty training. We also have Benny, our mini Goldendoodle, who loves other dogs and helps provide companionship and socialization throughout the day. If your dog is crate trained or needs structure overnight or while we briefly step away, we can absolutely accommodate that. We have multiple options available, including crate setups in our large bedroom for added comfort and supervision. Safety, supervision, and helping your dog feel comfortable in our home are always a priority.
About: I've been a dog and cat owner and caretaker for more than 30 years. I love spending time with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages! I currently have a German Retriever mix named Callie and a Miniature Pinscher mix named Pippa - both are spoiled rotten, love to play with other dogs and do well with cats. I also have 2 cats - Michonne and Betty White. Both do well with other cats and dogs. I'm currently home most days but will occasionally work from home. I am available to provide all services 7 days a week, unless my calendar shows that I’m unavailable due to an appointment. I live in a home that does not have a fenced in yard, but we are close to Pleasant Run trail and area parks. My Golden doodle is a little shy but gets along with all kinds of dogs and cats big and small. The cats also get along with other pets.
“We have been very lucky to find Mary only minutes away from our home. We have dropped our puppy, Mario, at Mary’s twice now and both times, he came home exhausted and slept very well. Mary sent pics during the day to keep us updated and is very quick to respond to texts.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Cumberland
About: I've had dogs since I was born and throughout my entire life. I've had puppies, senior dogs, and all big dogs! I've been sitting for neighbors and friends for years, too. I love to play inside or outside. My specialty is cuddling the love bugs. I'm currently working a very flexible part time job and I have a reliable vehicle, so pet care fits very easily into my day! I keep a close eye on all the pets (mostly because I'm trying to get them to hang out with me). I set reminders and have notes to keep on top of things and never forget a step! I am very attentive to my surroundings when I am sitting so I can keep the love bugs safe and comfortable.
About: I have taken care of friends' dogs and cats on and off throughout the years with no problems and I really enjoy caring for for fur babies! I also care for chickens from time to time! I'm pretty flexible with my schedule! I can stop by your house a couple of times a day or stay over night if needed. Right now I cannot keep pets at my house. I will follow the instructions you give me and lovingly care for your pet as if it were my own. I can transport your dog to park if needed.
“Shirley is amazing, she takes such good care of our animals and is always letting me know when she enters and leaves the home. She takes tons of pics and keeps me in the loop if any concerns. Highly recommend. We've had several walkers through other services and she is the best!”

About: I’ve had my own dog for 5 years, and it’s taught me a lot of responsibility. I used to dog walk for my neighbors before I moved. Also, I have a lot of patience when it comes to dogs. I’ll feed, walk, play, and even give your dog a bath if needed. I wake up early everyday to let my dog go outside. And I try to take my dog for walks everyday before dinner. I’m not a busy person so I’m always home ready to take care of the dogs Pets in my house are allowed on furniture and beds. I make sure to vacuum frequently because of the fur. I live in a 3 story house, with plenty of room for my dog and the dog I’m sitting. I live in a suburban development, with a safe route to walk dogs.
About: Hi there! If you are new to booking with me please take the time to read it helps me and helps you! I’ve been on Rover since November 2024, but my experience with animals goes back much further — over six years of consistent pet care! I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and many other animals, and I truly love every moment of it At home, I have quite the crew myself — three dogs, two cats, fish, and my newest addition, a tortoise! I currently work full-time as a Pharmacy Technician, typically from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. I’m now on a 7-on / 7-off rotation, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I’m available before or after my shifts for drop-ins, walks, or house sitting — as long as your pets are comfortable being on their own during my work hours. For house-sitting stays, I always make sure they’re well-fed, get outdoor time, and feel safe and loved before I head to work. Whenever you send me a booking request, I’ll let you know right away if your dates fall during my “work week.” I treat every pet like they’re one of my own, and I’m so grateful to everyone who’s trusted me with their furry (or scaly!) family members.

For house-sitting stays, I always make sure they’re well-fed, get outdoor time, and feel safe and loved before I head to work. When taking care of animals in other people's homes, I would prioritize their comfort and well-being by following specific instructions provided by the pet owner. I would ensure they have access to fresh water, appropriate food, and a clean living environment. Engaging in regular playtime and exercise would help keep them happy and active, while also providing companionship. I would also monitor their health and behavior closely, watching for any signs of distress or illness, and maintain open communication with the pet owner to keep them updated on their furry friends.
“I found Lorrie on Rover when I needed someone to walk my Emmee after my foot surgery. She did such a wonderful job!! Emmee took to her right away. Lorrie showed such love to my baby. I knew she was safe. I wouldn't hesitate to ask Lorrie to care for my Emmee again! Nancy T. Fishers, IN”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, so caring for them comes naturally to me. Growing up in a home with dogs taught me how to understand their different personalities, emotional needs, behaviors, and routines beyond just the basics of feeding and walking. I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where dogs feel comfortable, cared for, and genuinely happy while their owners are away. I am patient, attentive, and I have the ability to build trust with animals quickly. I treat every dog like family, paying close attention to their energy, comfort, and individual needs so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are in caring and dependable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I currently work part time and am home the majority of the week. I have open availability during weekdays from 8am–1pm and 3pm–8pm, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to rather than seeing as just a job. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it allows them to stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I make it a priority to carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, and any specific care preferences. I also understand how important trust and communication are, so I will provide regular updates, pictures, and check-ins while owners are away so they can feel reassured that their pet is safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: I am a dog mom through and through! Growing up in the country we had many dogs of all breeds I enjoyed. Now I am the proud mom to two mini dachshunds who love to hike and nap with me. I have watched many friends dogs and cats throughout the last couple years. Connecting with new animals brings me happiness plus I know how hard it is to find a trusted pet sitter for your animals. I want to be the best fit for your fur babies so let's connect! I am available part time for pet sitting. Weekends are more open than week days at this moment. I will only accept work I can fully dedicate my time and energy to. I always provide the safest transportation if needed. I carry dog treats, water, poop bags, and leash with me in my SUV. Plenty of room for a dog of any size. When visiting your home I will respect your privacy and home. I promise to leave all areas as clean as they were when I arrived. I will always double check locks, doors and the animals needs before exiting.
About: I am not a professional but sometimes I believe that’s okay. I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve always had such a big heart when it comes to animals. I worked at a shelter while I was in high school and the hardest for me was not bringin them all to my house. I have two dogs of my own. They’re both older girls and very very laid back and friendly. I think every dog has personality of their own and that’s what is beautiful about dogs. I think taking care of dogs is more than a chore or a job, i think it’s more of passion. In my opinion you have to love dogs to be able to take care of them the way they need. I hope I can be what you’re looking for.
“Thanks Natalie for checking on Marley. She was happy and appreciative of the break. I also appreciated that you followed directions and respected my home in my absence. I’ll be sure to rebook with you in the future.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I have knowledge with working dogs, police, dogs, rescue dogs, all of the above. I have a retired police dog and a rescue pup along with three cats. I’m familiar with young dogs, senior dogs dogs that need medication, all that fun stuff. I’m very passionate about helping and taking care of animals and I thoroughly enjoy meeting all different types of animals and getting to know their personalities. I just graduated high school so I am free every day. I’m willing to do overnight days, weekly stays drop in visits. My schedule is always very flexible. We don’t have a fence so one dog goes outside on a leash and the other dog has recall so he doesn’t need a leash. In clients homes I always follow the checklist or rules that are sent to me. I don’t wanna risk anything bad happening. I feed on schedule, give meds when needed, provide multiple potty breaks, and always make time for playtime.
About: I have been a regular pet sitter for friends, family, and coworkers since I was a teenager. I have experience with large or small dogs, elderly dogs, cats, and pets that need medication or other accommodations. I have experience with dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. This has sometimes included, but is not limited to, administering medication, cleaning up messes inside and outside, walking, feeding, and bathing. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of each pet I take care of is my top priority and it is one of my favorite things to do in the world! I do not have the same schedule weekly, so I will constantly update my availability. I only know my availability up to 3 weeks in advance. Unless I have to work very early the next day, I am available for overnights at least 3 days a week (typically). I am unable to have pets at my house because I live with a family member’s dog that does not do well with other animals. Please give me any and all instructions! I will make sure to follow any routine that I can for your pet to be comfortable. I will provide as many updates/photos as requested.
About: I was born with pets, cats and dogs. My best friend, a vet tech, has trusted me with her elderly husky and the 2 young ones. All adopted! I loved it so I adopted my own Husky, Kingston (that’s him in my photo). I know training is for the pet AND the human. Exercise, affection, and discipline are keys for a happy pet life, not aggression or cruelty. Pet health and grooming are second nature to me, and I have access to a licensed veterinary opinion in case of emergencies. Ask me anything if concerned, I want to be friends with your fur babies! I work 8 hour days during the week, off by 5. That leaves my availability at evenings and weekends for now. Pet has a LOT of energy? We’re gonna burn it! I go for walks 30 minutes twice daily, morning and evening. Feeding times are specific to the dog so I communicate with you on their routine so they can continue it and still fit in at puppy daycare! I have a two story duplex in Irvington, where I’m surrounded by parks and the Pleasant Run Trail. Pet has a LOT of energy? We’re gonna burn it! I go for walks since the husky boy needs it, and he is trained and friendly and likes to play with friends if allowed so he’s as excited as I am! We take 30 minute walks twice daily, morning and evening. We go to the the dog park (broad ripple or clay terrace) on Sundays. Feeding whenever convenient for the pet I’m watching, some dietetic pets need a strict timeline so we stick to that. Playtime when they are ready to play, but also an organized routine of games and training during that time. Whether I come to you or they come to me, the environment and schedule is pet friendly.

“Our dog loved staying with Nicole & her family! She was responsive & sent us pictures and updates daily! She made sure that our dog felt like he was part of their family! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe family to watch their family while they are away! I will be using Nicole again in the future!”
“This was our kitten’s first time staying away from home, and Shelby made it care-free and easy! She kept such a close eye on our kitten, even if the kitten didn’t necessarily want her too, haha! She made Willow feel so comfortable that by the end she was snuggling with Shelby! Looking forward to the next stay!”
“Ms Sharon has kept my fur baby several times when I work out of town. She sends updates/pictures throughout Cali’s stay with her and she doesn’t hesitate to reach out to me with any concerns or questions. She was my first Rover experience and will continue to be Cali’s caretaker anytime boarding is needed. If I could give her more than 5 stars I definitely would.”

“David was so great to my two frenchies. We completed a meet and greet and I knew within minutes of my dogs exploring and meeting the pack that this would be a great fit. They got to make new friends and be part of a very well behaved pack. They received lots of activity in his large enclosed yard with plenty of space to run or explore. Dogs were bathed on pickup and looked happy and healthy. David send daily videos which were greatly appreciated. I will definitely be using David for all my travel plans knowing my dogs are in good hands.”
“Our family was so fortunate to find someone close to home for our Remi. I needed to find out Remi was the cause of flares allergies and removing her from the house was one of the best ways to find out. Jill was took good care of our girl for over a week. She groomed and bathed her, sent pictures and even helped steer her with better potty training habits. We felt she was safe and well taken care of the entire time she was with her. Remi took a quick liking to her, and we wouldn’t hesit”
“Fantastic experience! Julie’s home is set up perfectly to accommodate your pet. No question that we will pursue using Julie in the future when we need a dog sitter. Easy to work with and for us…it is close to home. Our dog really enjoyed his stay and playing with the other dogs. She sent numerous pictures letting us know how our dog was doing. That was reassuring to us that our dog was getting great care. Thank you Julie!!”

It was hard for me not being able to physically see where the dogs hang out but they have so many good reviews, and they sent me pictures which was awesome. And again my pup was very happy when I picked her up we’re gonna give it another try thanks again.”
