“Nora is great. Kia is an older dog and set in her ways. Nora was so patient with her and took top notch care of her. I got daily updates. Kia wouldn’t eat for the first couple of days and Nora found a solution to get her to eat. Your dog is in good hands with Nora.”
“She was amazing there dog aurora is so cute and friendly. My dog had the best time and came home absolutely exhausted will definitely have them as my first choice for all bookings”
“I can't begin to thank Kelli enough from her flexibility to how patient she was with my doggos. I'm so thankful to have found her and for all the love she gave them while I was gone! She sent us pictures and progress messages letting me know how they were acclimating. Definitely recommend!!! ?”
“Destinee stepped in and saved the day! Benny loved being at her house. She was amazing at sending pictures the whole time he was there! We will definitely be booking again!! She gave us great peace of mind that Benny was taken care of while we were gone!!”
“We had a great experience with Mariah! She took amazing care of Goose and kept us updated with thoughtful, detailed messages the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she really paid attention to his routine, behavior, and little quirks. Goose got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and we came home to a happy (and tired!) pup. We would absolutely trust her to watch Goose again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“We are so grateful for the care Matthew and Ellie gave to our dog Marla. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous. Matthew and Ellie let us come to their home to see everything and how more the would feel at their place. They are very open and respectful. Marla had a wonderful time they provided daily pictures. They were very responsive to any messages. They were in constant communication with us and were also very flexible when we needed to extend marvelous care. We are very pleased with how everything went and will definitely be using them again in the future. I especially appreciated how they seemed to not just see this as a job, but actually enjoyed having Marla as part of their family.”
“Deborah was great about sending updates and treating our pup like family :). He had such a great time. Will definitely be checking with her first when we need boarding again!”
“Maddie had such a good time with Isabella! She was so gentle and caring, and made sure Maddie got plenty of walks and attention. I highly recommend her- she'll take great care of your pets and put your mind at ease.”
“Kelsie was so sweet to my dogs and they made themselves right at home. She sent me lots of pictures which was great. I really appreciated her taking them at the last minute on Memorial weekend! I will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I’m currently a Junior in college and I miss my dogs at home, which is what made me want to become a sitter on rover. I have two bernedoodles at home. One is 4 year old and one is 6 months old, so I’ve had experience training both of them and caring for both of them. I also walked a neighborhood golden doodle frequently in high school. Last summer I nannied a family with an adorable pitbull that I cared for in addition to the children. I also had a golden retriever growing up for 12 years. I love all ages, sizes, and breeds of dogs. I have a summer class from 9-12 every morning, but other than that I can be home all day. I spend most of my time studying at home, but love to go for walks as study breaks and I live a very active lifestyle, which dogs would fit into perfectly. I also love being outdoors and I live alone so I’d love the company of a furry friend. It really depends on the client and how they want me to care for their pet. I want to do as much as I can to make their dogs feel at home and at ease. I’ve seen how hard it is for my own dogs back at home to adjust to a new environment, so I want to provide a healthy environment for other people’s dogs. When I get clients I make sure to ask them about their dogs routine, so I can do my best to mimic that.
“Tawny was fantastic! She sent us pictures everyday, which is a big win for our little one. She treated him so well with lots of love and cuddles and took him with her to visit family. She made sure he stayed cool in the heat and made us feel very confident that our pup was being cared for well. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 14. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets I’m currently a student at Indiana University and I am home for the summer so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a fenced yard and I have had a dog my whole life and have dog sat and dog walked for many friends and family members.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and understand that some animals need special care. I live in a quiet neighborhood with great walking paths! I work a Monday through Friday normal schedule, going into work around 6am and coming home around 3pm each day. I love going on morning, afternoon, and evening walks with my dog, Toby, and he loves to run around our backyard too. Weekends are meant for fun! Sometimes we go to the dog park or a walk through downtown. I care for them by giving them attention, sticking to a nice schedule, and understanding that every animal is different in their own, unique way. Some require more care, others are very chill like my own dog!

I have three dogs of my own that are all very friendly and I have ways to separate dogs from each other if need be so they don’t all have to interact at the same time.

“Sara was a fantastic sitter for our two cats! She went above and beyond to take excellent care of our pets and our home, sent detailed updates, and is kind and caring and professional as can be. Thank you, Sara!”
“This is the second time I've used Leah to watch my kitties, and she did great! One of my cats is diabetic and needs insulin, and she was really excellent with him and gave him insulin while I was gone! I'd definitely use her again to watch them and I'd recommend her to watch your pets.”
“Heather is awesome! She did drop in visits for our cat while we were out town for about 5 days. She sent like 4-6 pictures each visit and gave regular updates. She was also super good about scheduling and communication when we had to book her - admittedly fairly last minute. 10 stars for Heather!”
“Andi did a great job taking care of our cats for a week. The daily updates and photos were a comfort, and she went above and beyond by sweeping up the litter the cats kept kicking out of the box.”
“Makayla was fantastic! She was communicative and even went above and beyond to help us after an address mix-up on our end. Would trust her with any of our pet care!”
“Got it, here's that same style cleaned up with no dashes and the correct details: --- Kasey was fantastic with our pets! She followed our care instructions closely and took the time to play with them and make sure they felt loved while we were away. She also sent photos and a thorough daily report with every visit, which made being away so much easier. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and takes the job seriously. We'd book her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter. 😊”
About: Hello! My name is Mirte (pronounced meer‑tah), and I’ve been caring for pets professionally for several years now. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and a goofy beagle named Mylo, and I adore them both like family. That same level of love, patience, and attention is what I bring to every cat I care for. Before pursuing social work I originally planned to become a veterinary technician, so my love for animals runs deep. Cats have always held a special place in my heart. Whether your kitty is shy, social, playful, or independent, I connect in a way that feels right for them. 🐈🧶 My schedule is very flexible right now since I’ve just wrapped up my internship, and I offer everything from drop‑ins to overnight stays. I always prefer meeting in person beforehand so you and your cat feel completely at ease. I’d love to connect and support you however I can; your pet’s well‑being truly matters to me.
“Jaime was absolutely wonderful. My plans ended up changing last minute and she was open and flexible to accommodating. She gave such beautiful pictures and updates and my kitty was so joyful and fun when I got home; she clearly had a great time!”
About: While in college my roommate had a cat. He neglected his cat, he wouldn't change his litter box, and would spray him with a water bottle whenever he did something "naughty". I ended up cleaning the litter box. And his cat ended liking me more than him. Cats hold a special place in my heart, their goofy, curious, and sometimes sassy attitudes are endlessly entertaining. I would love the opportunity to be of service to you and your lovely kitty!
About: I have owned cats since I was young. As an adult, my partner and I have 2 cats, Loki and Hashbrown, who are like our children at this point. I understand cats and their needs, and would love to help care for yours!
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs and cats for over 12 years, plus 3+ years professionally, including overnight stays, walks, and drop-in visits—always keeping pets happy, safe, and loved. As a college student at Indiana University, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I do not provide clients at my home. I keep there own home environment as safe as possible and provide updates and communication during walks and drop ins.
About: Let me care for your loved ones while you are away, so you can rest at ease and enjoy your adventure with your family and friends. I love being on the move and having a variety of tasks. I love helping to build a strong community as well in this area. Pets are important family members, and I believe owners should know they are valued as such when they are away. Providing your house and/or your pets is the priority while you are away/or needing services. Let me provide you the peace of mind that your house and your pets will receive the highest quality of attention. I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.
About: While I love dogs, they don't compare to my love for cats. I've had three cats in my life now, two who live at home with my family and my baby who lives in my dorm with me. I like to think I understand cats and their behavior more than the average person, and would absolutely love to take care of your fur baby.

“Augie had a wonderful time with Mary Jane and family. This was the first time we left Augie with anyone; Mary Jane made us feel reassured and calm. We had a terrific get away and Augie had a great day! Thank you, Janine & Bruce”
About: My fiancé and I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. Our experience includes feeding according to dietary needs, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. And let’s not forget, all the cuddles your pup will allow! Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine, as both my fiancé, Renas, and I work from home. I work part-time and he works full-time, which means one of us is always home to provide attentive care. Renas shares my love for animals and is always actively involved in caring for the pets we welcome. Our schedules are flexible and fully adaptable to meet your pet’s unique needs. While your pet is in our care, we will follow any schedule/routine that fits your pets needs. We will also ensure proper feeding/watering and any dietary restrictions. Pets will have regular walks and playtime as well as proper physical and mental stimulation such as engaging in games or activities that cater to the pet’s personality and energy level. If games and activities aren’t your pets cup of tea, we can be great couch potatoes and cuddle buddies as well. Maintaining a clean pet environment is a priority ensuring their space is free from hazards. Any basic grooming needs will also be provided. Last but not least, we are happy to keep pet owners updated regularly through messages, pictures, or videos to provide peace of mind. (Pets are allowed on furniture and are welcome to sleep in bed if preferred 😊) Side note- We live in a two story home on a half acre lot that backs up to a wooded area. Our yard is not fenced in so dogs will need to be leashed when going outside. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with tree lined streets and sidewalks on both sides. There’s also several trails nearby that’s great for dog walking and adventures!
About: Use code “ISABEB37561” to get $20 off your first booking with me on Rover. Hi there! I’m Isabella and I have watched over friends and family's pets for as long as I can remember. I enjoy being able to unload some of the burden of worrying from my clients, and hopefully I can do so for you in the near future. I also speak Spanish in case is more convenient for you! I work with a relatively flexible schedule. Depending on the distance, I am able to fit home and pet visits into my daily routine, and am open to hearing about your needs/how I can help. I live in a house in a very walkable area. I would base my care off your pets preferences/needs. We can go on long walks, play in the park, and I would make sure they are getting all the pets and love they need!
“Kimberly was so kind and accommodating. Mia had a great time playing with her and her dog. She has a larger property with plenty of room to roam and play which was great for our golden. We will definitely have her dog sit for us again if ever needed in the future. Thanks!”
“Misty enjoyed her stay at Kelly’s”. Misty usually resists when we drop her off at daycare centers, but she went happily when we dropped her at Kelly”s house. That was the kind of wonderful care that Kelly provided.”

I will take great care of your fur babies like they are my own. I take them outside for 5-10 minutes once every few hours for potty breaks. I feed them and take them on a walk first thing in the morning after I wake up and right before bed. Throughout the day I play with them inside or outside depending on the weather. I train them for at least 30 minutes a day using treats and techniques I’ve learned in dog training classes. I will rotate there toys as well to keep them interesting and engaging, as well as use dog training puzzles for mental stimulation. I have been taking care of dogs, cats, and other animals since I was 11 years old. There were always pets in my home growing up, and it was always my responsibility to take care of them after I turned 11 years old. Once I moved out at 19, I had my own dog, and got a second one a year later. They are the best dogs, and I am so grateful to be there dog mom!

About: I am a loving trustworthy pet sitter with 10 years experience watching family, friends, and neighbors animals. My experience in training, exercise, play time, boarding, and spoiling set me apart and provide your animals the best care possible while you are away! I watch dogs full time. I am able to devote any range of attention and care that your animal needs. I can come to you or your pet can come to me. I have a loving home with lots of toys to fit your animals needs. I keep the animals inside and prefer to let them be free and comfortable. I have found that using a blanket, shirt, or bed from home usually helps when boarding that they can cuddle with, or I can use a crate if your animal is more comfortable that way. I have the ability to separate animals if your animal requires one on one love :) I do this full time and just started an in home kennel! I can do home visits, doggy daycare, and boarding at any time or day that fits your schedule! I have home on 3 acres out in the country with 2 fenced in areas, along with an outdoor inclosed kennel. I take animals on walks and we love spending time outside when the weather permits! I always keep them on a leash when we’re outside for the safety of the animals.
“Our dogs loved their time at Kelli's! She is very friendly and obviously loves dogs. Kelli provided photos and updates during the day and is really communicative. Her fenced-in back yard provides a great opportunity for the dogs to romp around. Our dogs were worn out from playing and having such a good time! I would definitely love to use Kelli again.”
“Jasmine was great. I was in town for an event and decided to let my puppy play instead of join me. I contacted Jasmine last minute and she was available! Roxie had a great time and was well cared for. I got several pictures and video up which was great for this nervous mom. Thanks so much!!!”
“Once again, you guys go above and beyond for Rocky! Playing in the pool, taking care of his health and always making sure he has so much fun! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter! 5/5 stars every single time!”

I volunteered at our local animal shelter, was trained in multiple animal science courses, and was taught to love and respect the animals I work with, both domesticated and exotic. I have handled dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, foxes, raccoons, bobcats, farm livestock, petting zoo animals, and more. I love them and have tons of professional experience to give your fur-baby the best experience possible.

I have lots of time on my hands, currently we start our mornings with a good meal and a long walk along our neighborhood. We will head to the house for a quick nap or so that our older dogs and puppies can rest. We then head to either the local state park or a dog park for some new stimulation. When we return home, we have some free time with toys and puzzles, enjoy another good meal, take another long, walk around the neighborhood, and then cuddle on the couch or in the beds until bedtime. I don’t have a fence in yard however, we have multiple leashes here as well as one that you would prefer to use. All of our animals are continuously monitored, I work part-time, and we also have cameras in the house. Feel free to request photos or videos of your baby at any point in time.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, my mom managed vet offices and shelters so I was never without (at least) 2 dogs and 4 cats. I started fostering puppies and kittens on my own when I was 10. Currently the mom of a sweet orange tabby. I would love to give your pets the love, play, and care they deserve when you’re away! I’m currently available all day, everyday for your furry friends! If needed, I even have availability to stay over night. I’m particularly a fan of morning walks :) I am very detail oriented, will follow your directions to a T, and reach out with any questions. You know what’s best for your pets! I have experience in childcare, so I know safety always comes first. Also, with my volunteer work at shelters, I understand how to calm grumpy dogs and cats down (and get their zoomies out, so you don’t come home to a gremlin!)
About: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals. We had horses, goats, chickens, cows, and of course dogs and cats. We have 2 Australian Shepherds, and a bunch of cats. I also grew up around Chihuahuas. My sister has a senior diabetic Chihuahua, so I have experience with them as well. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of animals, so I can take care of barns as well. I am currently working part-time in the early mornings, so I have plenty of afternoon time to spend with pets. I also am a full time student, but all of my work is online. I am open to any days that are needed. I have a warm and friendly approach when it comes to animals. I always think it's important to remember that accidents happen. In the end, they're animals. I love giving them all the pets and cuddles I can possibly give. It's their first time living too!!
About: I’ve pet sat since age 10, having 3 dogs of my own growing up. I have pet sit for neighbors, friends, and family through the years Im a student, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m a student athlete at IU, and an animal behavior major. Feel free to reach out about scheduling! I make sure to follow your specific instructions carefully such as potty breaks when needed, feeding times, play time, locking up the crates(if applicable), etc
About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).
About: I have been around and loved dogs for my entire life. One of our family dogs had two litters while I was in high school and I helped take care of and raise the puppies. I also frequently pet-sat for neighbors and friends. Last year my wife and I adopted a puppy from Puerto Rico who we adore. I look forward to giving your pets the care and love they deserve! I do freelance work as a musician and dancer, so I have a fairly unpredictable schedule. Currently I am available on weekdays from 8 AM to 10 PM but I can be available on some weekends. I am happy to play with your dogs in their home or yard, to work on training as needed (our dog has been in training courses for around six months), or to do whatever else your dog will enjoy! I also enjoy walks and am happy to take your dog around the neighborhood or to nearby parks.

I am currently working part-time and attending college courses at IU. This means that besides those set times, I am free for house/pet sitting, drop-in visits, and long walks/playtime! I follow every client’s instructions to a T and will go above and beyond to give your pet the best care I am able to. I am comfortable working in any environment and have the necessary training to access behavior and the safety of your pet!
About: Training and caring for cats and dogs alike from a young age, I have a way with animals that is forged by trust and love. I see animals as individuals, and I believe in second chances (especially with little ones). Whether your animal is a newborn or a 15-year-old, my attention to detail is the same. Being a full-time student, I have a class schedule that is easy to work around as I schedule breaks around lunch and dinner times. Unless otherwise noted, I am free most evenings as well! Not to mention, I am a natural early riser, so maintaining your animal’s everyday schedule will be no issue. Giving them all of the love I can is crucial to our relationship and trust. Even for a walk, maintaining their normal habits is important. Whether staying at the house or not, being with the animal when they wake up (and when they go to sleep) is essential for me if watching for extended periods of time!
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I have always had at least one cat, and had dogs for 17 years of my life. I have also taken care of family and friends’ pets while they are out of town plenty of times. I am available all day every day for any kind of pet needs, and I can house cats overnight, however, I am unable to house dogs overnight. I am within walking distance of a dog park, and can bring animals inside or outside, whichever their needs are. I can also keep and transfer pets inside crates as needed.
About: I have been taking care of dogs and other animals ever since 2018. People have trusted me with their animals and there is no changing that. I will always be the first to help if in need of walking or sitting. I am currently in school at Indiana University and have another serving job at Texas Roadhouse. I am scheduled usually Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sunday morning. Although of the weekends being full I am currently looking at different jobs to open my weekends up after school gets out. I live in a pet friendly apartment with an area for your animal to play and run around. I have no animals living in my unit, so if your pet doesn’t do well with other animals, there is no worry there.
About: Let me care for your loved ones while you are away, so you can rest at ease and enjoy your adventure with your family and friends. I love being on the move and having a variety of tasks. I love helping to build a strong community as well in this area. Pets are important family members, and I believe owners should know they are valued as such when they are away. Providing your house and/or your pets is the priority while you are away/or needing services. Let me provide you the peace of mind that your house and your pets will receive the highest quality of attention. I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.
About: I have worked in a dog kennel as well as volunteered for multiple years!!! I have dealt with a variety of animals in their own homes as well as mine, and have raised my own dog as well!! I currently work part time with very few hours, so I am always openly available for your animal!!! I make it a priority to keep your animal feeling safe and happy just as they would be with you! I can easily crate your dog if needed and live somewhere with a large yard for playing and keeping them entertained!! I also have plenty of space and things for them to do!!
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I am currently working full time, but am more than happy to dedicate all my time outside of work to your pet. I am willing to work around whatever schedule they are used to in order to make sure they remain as comfortable as possible. I remain very attentive to what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I am also willing to work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.

“Nora is great. Kia is an older dog and set in her ways. Nora was so patient with her and took top notch care of her. I got daily updates. Kia wouldn’t eat for the first couple of days and Nora found a solution to get her to eat. Your dog is in good hands with Nora.”

“We had a great experience with Mariah! She took amazing care of Goose and kept us updated with thoughtful, detailed messages the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she really paid attention to his routine, behavior, and little quirks. Goose got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and we came home to a happy (and tired!) pup. We would absolutely trust her to watch Goose again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“We are so grateful for the care Matthew and Ellie gave to our dog Marla. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous. Matthew and Ellie let us come to their home to see everything and how more the would feel at their place. They are very open and respectful. Marla had a wonderful time they provided daily pictures. They were very responsive to any messages. They were in constant communication with us and were also very flexible when we needed to extend marvelous care. We are very pleased with how everything went and will definitely be using them again in the future. I especially appreciated how they seemed to not just see this as a job, but actually enjoyed having Marla as part of their family.”
“Deborah was great about sending updates and treating our pup like family :). He had such a great time. Will definitely be checking with her first when we need boarding again!”
“Maddie had such a good time with Isabella! She was so gentle and caring, and made sure Maddie got plenty of walks and attention. I highly recommend her- she'll take great care of your pets and put your mind at ease.”
“Kelsie was so sweet to my dogs and they made themselves right at home. She sent me lots of pictures which was great. I really appreciated her taking them at the last minute on Memorial weekend! I will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I’m currently a Junior in college and I miss my dogs at home, which is what made me want to become a sitter on rover. I have two bernedoodles at home. One is 4 year old and one is 6 months old, so I’ve had experience training both of them and caring for both of them. I also walked a neighborhood golden doodle frequently in high school. Last summer I nannied a family with an adorable pitbull that I cared for in addition to the children. I also had a golden retriever growing up for 12 years. I love all ages, sizes, and breeds of dogs. I have a summer class from 9-12 every morning, but other than that I can be home all day. I spend most of my time studying at home, but love to go for walks as study breaks and I live a very active lifestyle, which dogs would fit into perfectly. I also love being outdoors and I live alone so I’d love the company of a furry friend. It really depends on the client and how they want me to care for their pet. I want to do as much as I can to make their dogs feel at home and at ease. I’ve seen how hard it is for my own dogs back at home to adjust to a new environment, so I want to provide a healthy environment for other people’s dogs. When I get clients I make sure to ask them about their dogs routine, so I can do my best to mimic that.
“Tawny was fantastic! She sent us pictures everyday, which is a big win for our little one. She treated him so well with lots of love and cuddles and took him with her to visit family. She made sure he stayed cool in the heat and made us feel very confident that our pup was being cared for well. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 14. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets I’m currently a student at Indiana University and I am home for the summer so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a fenced yard and I have had a dog my whole life and have dog sat and dog walked for many friends and family members.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and understand that some animals need special care. I live in a quiet neighborhood with great walking paths! I work a Monday through Friday normal schedule, going into work around 6am and coming home around 3pm each day. I love going on morning, afternoon, and evening walks with my dog, Toby, and he loves to run around our backyard too. Weekends are meant for fun! Sometimes we go to the dog park or a walk through downtown. I care for them by giving them attention, sticking to a nice schedule, and understanding that every animal is different in their own, unique way. Some require more care, others are very chill like my own dog!
“Kelly was incredible!! I'm truly wondering if our dog will be sad to come home because he loved staying with Kelly so much, haha. She sent so many wonderful picture and video updates. She took such good care of our dog and even gave him baths and daily walks and worked on commands with him. He learned so much just from staying there. I will definitely be using Kelly again and I will recommend her to my friends as well!”
“Victoria does a fantastic job of taking care of our dog, Bailey. Victoria provides regular updates, and I know Bailey loves the attention he receives. We'll definitely be booking Victoria again.”
