“Our dog Moxy was very happy with her stay for eight days, and so was I. I received messages and pictures day with updates. The large fenced yard allowed Moxy to play run, and she also liked that she had another dog to play with who was staying at the same time. Highly recommended!!”
“5 stars as always. They take great care of Charlie while we’re out of town, keep us updated, and are super flexible. Charlie loves the whole family and feels right at home. Thank you so much!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs & cats my entire life. I have experience as a vet assistant. Animals are my passion and not only do I love providing a loving home for my animals but I also know how hard it is to balance work and life in general when you have pets so I want to be able to care and help you with your fur babies as well! I'm currently only working part time so I have a lot of free time to care for your fur babies ! My schedule is pretty open so on my days off I can take last minute requests . I also enjoy being outdoors even if it's just sitting in the backyard with the dogs I have a fenced in yard with a loving yellow Labrador ! Your pup will have fun and will stay safe with plenty of exercise! I do not go on walks without a leash or without your consent.
“Ms. Bernice took very good care of our CoCo while we were on vacation. She also sent a lot of pictures of our baby and responded back to our texts. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“I met Joy at my sons’s school trunk or treat event and I’m so happy I got her card! Maple was with Joy for 2 weeks. Her family was wonderful during the meet and greet. Joy sent me photos of Maple everyday, and I can see him smiling and loved. She was very helpful, responsive, and professional while setting up Maples stay too. Highly recommended!”
“Najah was so great with Kash. So much so, he didn't act like he wanted to leave her. She kept me updated on his behavior and how ge was doing the entire time with texts & photos. I will definitely be boarding with Najah again.”
“Mary and Marty always take great care of our dog. They’re easy to communicate with… quick to respond and keep us up to date on how Sully’s stay with them is going. Highly recommend!”
“Alisha was great with our 7 yr old coonhound, Beau!! Highly recommend. We had a situation where we needed to book an overnight boarding last minute and she was extremely accommodating and helpful. Our pup got along great with her and her pets. We could tell he was very comfortable there. She kept us updated throughout his visit, which is always greatly appreciated. We’ll definitely be rebooking when in the area :) thanks Alisha!!”
“Ava took good care of our boy while we were away for a couple days. She asked if we could speak after I requested the booking so I could give her extra details for how we take care of him at home. Ava communicated daily with pictures which was extra special. We hope to hire Ava again in the future and recommend her to you too!! ♡🐾♡🐾♡”
“April was amazing with Korra! She had such a fun time and was clearly so loved during her stay. We got pictures and updates everyday. Again, could clearly see how much fun she was having! This was Korra first 4th of July as well, so we weren’t sure how she was going to react to the fireworks. April did an amazing job at letting us know what she had planned and how she was going to create a safe and calm environment for the dogs. We got pictures and updates on how she was doing/did. I am so glad Korra spent her first fireworks season with April. She was so well cared for. I could not recommend April more. She has so much love and care for her own dogs that she shares with other dogs. Korra is so happy to be apart of Petey’s and Shawna’s friend group!”
“Sue & David we’re amazing from beginning to end! We had a call, meet & greet and they watched our dog for a week. They provided updates with pictures and not once did we have to worry while on vacation. They even let our little guy sleep with them. Do yourself a favor and hire them! You won’t regret it.”
“Christian was great with my pup! I always feel guilty leaving my pup with others because I know she’s used to a lot of attention and specialized care that I provide, but Christian was able to provide frequent updates and followed all of my extra instructions. Thanks for taking care of my puppy and going above and beyond!!!”
“Andrea and Paul took wonderful care of my pup when I was passing through town on business. They were communicative and let him enjoy their home and company like one of the family. Pick up and drop off were very easy as well.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so grateful I found Juliana. I was so nervous leaving my baby in the care of anyone for the first time on an extended stay. Juliana took such good care of my Benito! Her communication was great and you can tell she truly is an animal lover. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you for caring for my Benito! 🫶🏽🐈⬛”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid. It was a side job for me to make money for extra activities. I would watch neighbors, families, and the communities fur babies I try to be pretty flexible with schedules, I do have a full time job to also keep in mind. So, just let me know what works for you and we can work something out! I care for your fur babies in your home like I would a child or my fur baby.

About: I have taken care of cats for my entire life. One specific job I have taken recently for two years now is volunteering at my local animal shelter, and have had to administer medications and clean/tidy their kennels!
“Timothy is very prompt, patient, and thorough with his drop in visits. Showed up on time and made sure to hit all his items on the punch list I gave him. My dog can be very excitable and he was very patient with her. I was very worried about leaving my babygirl with a stranger and he put all my worries at ease. I will definitely be using Timothy in the future.”
“Laylani came to us at a very difficult time. We had taken in a kitten unexpectedly that was very, very ill. We had a trip scheduled that we could not cancel, and the kitten needed daily feedings and medications. Laylani came every day at the same time to administer the medications and feed her. We are happy to say that the kitten is well on her way to being completely recovered. This would not have possible without her hard work. I gave her five stars because that's all the system allows, but there's not enough stars in heavens to show how much we appreciated the work that she did. If you need someone who is responsible and hardworking to care for your pet you can't do better than Laylani.”
About: I’ve also cared for many cats over the years for friends, neighbors, and family. I’m comfortable feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure cats feel relaxed and safe while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a different personality—some want attention and playtime, while others just want a calm presence—and I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable. My goal is always to make sure pets are well cared for and stress-free until their owners return
About: I have worked in a doggy daycare that required us to not only manage the dogs but also teach them how to properly socialize with other dogs! This sparked my love for dog training and once I got my dog Turtle my journey to becoming a dog trainer began! My mission is to help you and your dog’s life be more fulfilling together in any way I can. Whether that be teaching you guys how to communicate better, being there while you’re working to support them, or taking them out on adventures I will do my best to make it worthwhile! I can’t wait to meet you but specifically your pup! 🙏🐶❤️ I work two part-time jobs with one of them being a dog trainer. This means plenty of time and skills that I can use to not only be there for your dog but also help them learn! When it comes to your pets care you tell me what is best. You know your dog better than I ever will, which means you know their discomforts. My job is to care for them to the best of my ability and I fully intend to do so by avoiding any extra stress!

“Between having a private backyard dog run and lots of toys, you can tell Jordan is a dog lover who knows how to take care of them.

He usually gets anxiety when he is separated from me and tends to act out the rest of the day, but he has been his normal self all day since I picked him up from her! She took him for multiple walks and let him get lots of energy out! 5 stars and I will definitely be using Angela again!”

“What a find! April had such a gentle nature. She and her dogs quickly won over my clingy Princess. She had a great time and came home tired from all the fun. A great experience!”
About: I enjoy having dogs, and started using this website when I went out of town. Because of this, I know the high standard of care I expect from my sitter, and what you should expect too. I will take the time and care you would for your own dog. I'll give them snuggles, playtime, and lots of outside time depending on the crazy weather we have here of course. Myself and my doggy friends love to take walks, play tug-of-war, fetch and other games your dog enjoys or might enjoy. If your dog comes to our house we have a fully enclosed backyard. It is a great big yard enough to play fetch with a few dogs at the same time. Some just like to sun bathe and watch everyone else run around. Your dogs will have so much fun, and will be well loved while they are here. When my doggie friends come back for a visit the owners tell me the dogs are excited when they turn down my street. I have a Yorkie named Jack, and 3 mini Bernedoodles named Elenor, Dahlia, and Franklin. I am not taking unneutered or unspayed dogs at this time. I have lots of available hours to spend with your pets. My schedule is consistent usually, but fairly open. In the past, I was walking dogs. Not sure if I am going to start doing that or not. I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs to keep your dog company. We can play in the yard or hang out in the house. I have lots of toys and balls.
About: I am a licensed veterinary assistant and have three years of experience working in a animal clinic.

I have a open schedule since i am able to start focusing on my love for animals and helping others they may need help caring for their animals The care my own animals get is they are feed once a day and get treats throughout the day and go on walks or play with there toys or unwind and watch tv and I would treat the animals in my care with the same love or however it is their own cares for them

Also first time guests and last minute requests must schedule a meet and greet I use to be flexible with this but situations have happened that caused me no longer be flexible. In addition I do not accept any pets without a safe reliable comfortable crate. As I do not allow free roaming in my home when I am not present. Your pet safety is my top priority. Being in a new environment for the first time pets will be pets. They aren’t perfect. Feel free to ask me any questions if need be. If you are Sending me a message I assume you have read everything i have written here from start to finish. **(For example old pictures of pet only to arrive and they are 3 times the size) - 100% we have to have a meet n greet prior to sitting.

If you have any questions please set up a time with me to hop on a call using the rover app. Please note, sending me a message on the rover app at any point inquiring if I’m available to babysit your pet, means you have read my entire introduction page in its entirety and you are comfortable with understanding last minute bookings or no meet greets may have a fee associated if you choose to let me babysit your pet.

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Currently, I care for two of my own—Sparky, my sweet 13-year-old Bichon Frise, and Shelby, my playful 1-year-old Miniature Goldendoodle. Having both a senior dog and a young, energetic pup has given me a wide range of hands-on experience, from managing health needs and gentle senior care to keeping up with puppy energy, training, and teething phases. In the past, I also cared for an American Pitbull Terrier for 5 years, and over the years I’ve looked after many dogs for friends, neighbors, and family members. Some of the breeds I’ve worked with include Chihuahuas, Beagles, Golden Retrievers, Pomeranians, and a variety of lovable mixes. Every dog is unique, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one’s personality and quirks. Whether they’re shy or outgoing, young or elderly, I’m patient, gentle, and always happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m usually available Monday through Friday, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk, play with, and care for your pup. Whether they need a midday stroll, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to be there for them. I’m home often, so I’m able to keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they’re always safe and cared for. While my yard is open and unfenced, I never leave dogs outside unattended—they’re always on a leash and supervised, with access to a sunny, enclosed sunroom for extra comfort. For smaller dogs, I have a crate available if preferred by the owner, and I’m also able to provide transport in case of a vet emergency. My home is stocked with cozy blankets and toys that are always available for dogs to borrow and enjoy. Located in a quiet, beautiful area, the home offers plenty of space to explore, bird- and squirrel-watching opportunities, and nearby parks for peaceful outings. The spacious living room and multiple rooms allow for safe separation if needed, ensuring every dog feels comfortable. Most of all, your pup will enjoy peace, safety, and lots of love while in my care.
“I would recommend Kassia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional dog sitter. She was communicative, met with us a couple of days before the actual sit, and accommodated our early 6 a.m. drop-off that we needed (which happened to be on Daylight Savings as well). Moreover, our dog was excited when we dropped him off (always a good sign to us), and was tired when we got home.”
About: I have experience caring for all types of animals: dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, rodents, etc. You name it, I can care for it! Whatever your needs may be, your pets will be in great hands! I plan to devote all of my time and effort into ensuring your animals get all of their needs met, whether you have a high energy pup who needs lots of stimulation or just a chill baby who wants to cuddle on the couch. I have a fenced-in backyard and a friendly dog to keep yours company! I can also easily provide crate training if necessary or requested. I have 3 cats who are very used to all other animals but can easily be put up if your animal doesn't like cats. Whether I watch your animals at my house or yours, I simply ask for a detailed list of everything you want/need done, specifically if they have any special needs.
About: With over 20 years of experience as a dog mom and countless years of house and pet sitting for families, I’m passionate about providing loving and attentive care to your pets. My journey began in Oak Park, IL, where I worked as a trusted nanny and babysitter for families—many of whom had furry, feathered, or scaly companions. Now, as a mom myself, I focus exclusively on house and pet sitting, offering all the love and premium care to help your pet feel spoiled. I have a heart for all animals but an especially soft spot for dogs. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals, including chickens, house birds, turtles, frogs, and hamsters, so I’m comfortable with pets big and small! Whether your pup needs walks, cuddles, or just a calm presence in the home, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Your pets are family, and I treat them as such—with respect, kindness, and a whole lot of love. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered, or scaly) family members! I’m available Monday through Sunday from 6am to 8pm. I’m also happy to accommodate earlier or late-night pet care requests whenever possible. I own a full time home and pet care company where I provide house care and pet care fully insured! When I care for pets in their home, I do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible—just like they would if their family were there. I follow their usual routine closely, ensuring they get their meals and any medication right on schedule. I keep their space clean, tidy, and welcoming, so they always feel at ease. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I provide plenty of affection and attention. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel connected while you’re away. My goal is to ensure your pets feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for in the place where they feel safest—their own home.
“Joy was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She provided a safe, fun, and caring environment, and it was clear how much she truly loves animals. My pup came home happy and relaxed. This was my first time using Rover and Joy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! 🐾”

About: I’ve lived with a dog in my household for a large portion my life, first with our rat terrier rescue when I was growing up, and then with my college roommate’s Australian shepherd that we raised from a puppy. While I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I occasionally help care for friends pets and genuinely enjoy the opportunity to live vicariously through taking care of other people’s pets. I am self-employed and set my own schedule. My weekdays and weekends are both very open and flexible for walks, potty breaks, and play time. I like to have a detailed orientation to a pet’s environment and routine, as well as written instructions for care. The more I can get to know you and your pet(s), the smoother the process will be for everyone!
“Alexis was absolutely fantastic taking care of my baby Luna! Luna is only 6 months old, has a lot of energy, is not fully trained and I'm sure was a handful for someone to walk in day-one and manage, But she did above and beyond. She brought toys and puzzles, made sure Luna was fed and properly walked. She updated me on how the walks went, when she arrived and left, told me about the other dogs Luna got to meet along the walks and seemed totally joyful and sincere about spending time with my sweet girl. I will be hiring Alexis over and over in the future!”
“Julie was awesome and my pup looked forward to seeing Julie when it was time for her walk. I knew she was in good hands when she was so very excited to meet Julie. Thank you so very much!!!”
About: Hi there! My name is Andrea and I'm looking forward to helping provide support for your fur-friend. I enjoy walking dogs and cat sitting. I have been dog walking for a few years and grew up with several cats. I enjoy talking dogs on walks so that we both (the dog and I) can get some much needed fresh air! In summertime, I make sure to go on early walks with the dogs so that the heat doesn't affect them as much. I do dog walks and house sits/visits for all pets and have references by request. I am responsible and value communication so that we can both have a great time using Rover. I’m looking forward to helping make your life easier! My schedule is very flexible and I am able to help out throughout the day. I can easily modify my work schedule to help suit your pet’s schedule!

That is what I am here for...whether they require so many walks per day or snuggles or play time
About: Hi! I’m a dogaholic. I have experience taking care of labs, great danes, staffordshire terriers, and my personal favorite: GOLDEN RETRIEVERS! My walks give dogs the structure and clarity they need to live better lives and lead to a better relationship between dog and owner. Let’s talk! I live in Portage and work from home, meaning dog walking, visits, and sitting typically doesn’t with work. Contact me today for specifics and we can get you booked asap! Safety is my #1 priority. I am pet CPR certified, which I think all pet owners should consider getting (it’s a $25 course y’all!). Especially those with larger breeds, which are more susceptible to heart attacks. Know the signs of heart attacks, dehydration, and heat exhaustion. Finally, I ask all my new dog-owners if there is any medical history, allergies, disabilities, or medication I need to be aware of before caring for that animal.
“Sabrina is very responsive and takes great care of my pup. She understands my dogs needs as well as willing and able to care for his reactivity. My pup always has a smile on his face in the many pictures she provides :)”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to check in on, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and have experience with larger breeds like Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, and Leonbergers, so I’m confident handling bigger dogs as well. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are gone. My schedule is pretty flexible right now, so I’m able to do drop-ins, walks, and check-ins throughout the week. I’m reliable about sticking to feeding schedules, potty breaks, and making sure pets get attention and playtime while their owners are away. I always try to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine and environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, or anything specific the pet needs. I’m patient with animals and make sure they feel safe, calm, and well cared for while their family is gone.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions. i love taking pictures and sending updates of your friend throughout the day! Currently my availability is wide open. I go to the gym 4 times a week, but other than that mostly home with my 3 dogs. We have a fenced in yard. Our 2 younger dogs are crated during the day if we're gone. Other than the dogs pretty much have free rein to the coach and to feel at home. Our dogs also eat on a schedule. But we can accommodate your pets needs.
About: Hi there! I worked as kennel staff at an animal hospital for over a year before I moved to Nevada, and then I worked at both and animal hospital and a grooming salon during the two years I lived there! (I have since returned to Northwest Indiana!) I took care of both cats and dogs(of all breeds and disabilities) and helped medicate and treat them! I have owned pets all my life, both cats and dogs, and have been their primary caretakers. I am heavily passionate about animals! I currently have two dogs and four cats. I am 23 and have a driver's license. I love animals more than anything, and would do whatever it takes to make your pets feel happy and safe in my company! I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to take care of other people's pets! I live in a household with other people, so I'm more than able to housesit, as well! I love to keep animals company, and I will do whatever I'm asked to do to take care of someone's pet. If said pet is undergoing training of any sort, I'm willing to make sure that training is implemented throughout the visit, walk, or stay. I absolutely love giving furbabies my attention and love, but will go at the pets pace. I won't force my affections on an anxious animal.
About: I have been around all sorts of animals since I was a baby. I had a German shepherd growing up. Now I own a hound mix who is very energetic and keeps me busy which I like. While I was in college I worked at my teams stable and took care of my coaches horses, chickens, and her donkey. Since I own a dog of my own, pet care is in my every day life. I am a server at Dante’s house of pizza. Even with my busy work schedule I still have plenty of time to take my own dog to the park, walk him, and play with him. I want to share my love by taking care of other peoples animals. I can ensure them that their furry friends will be safe in my care. My dog’s name is Gino and he loves being outdoors whenever we can be. He loves going on walks with other dogs. He is really happy when I take him to my friend’s house to play with their dogs. My dog is very spoiled and gets to snuggle up with me in bed. I am responsible to take him to the vet when he needs his yearly check up. I make sure he is well groomed and well fed.
About: I have had a lot of experience since my teens and I continue to have a constant bond with animals. My newest edition is a Bern doodle. I have a wonderful home for your fur babies and sometimes watch my fur grandbabies also . So they can have interaction with them and me . I can basically offer services of your needs just let me know what your baby loves and I can agree to almost agree with anything to make them happy and comfortable.
About: We have always had pets (Mostly Dogs) growing up and have never met a dog or cat that didn't like us. We are the type of people that animals (Fur Babies) just feel at ease with.

My patients never wears thin and eventually all, even the most stubborn pet warms up to me. Any pet under our supervision will always be taken care of from walks, to alone time to calm their nerves if need be but NEVER neglected. We truly believe that your Dogs and/or Cats should and will be treated just you would. Thanks, Between my wife and I we are essentially available 24/7. And hope to accommodate any ones schedule. Our routine will be scheduled around whatever is needed We have a full half acre completely fenced in (Wooden privacy fence). And of course whatever it is you and your dogs like enjoy we will accommodate.
About: I always love to make sure the pet is well taken care of not just physically but mentally. I always wanna make sure they're happy just like normal people. The biggest thing that does make me happy is seeing other animals, I used to try to help every animal I came across ever since I was little I always wanna go up to them and give them every percentage of love (with owners permission of course). If you have cats i will definitely do cat care also and can take care of them in our home. For dog's I unfortunately cant take care of them in our apartment because its too small and unfair for them, but i can do stop by visits before work or on my days off or even after work. If your cat or dog needs any type of special needs, just teach me how to care for your baby and i will learn it quickly and give them the care they need. I do work nightshfit at the Valpo Highschool from 9pm to 5:30am I am currently working another job so unfortunately I have a small tight availability. I work mostly closing shifts(1:30pm-10pm) and the off days i have are Fridays and Saterdays I also have a 2nd morning job from 7am-1pm but my Husband has a more open scedual I love to take photos of people's pets so a photo update will be no problem! I treat other people's pets like they are my own or like they are someone's child.

“I met Joy at my sons’s school trunk or treat event and I’m so happy I got her card! Maple was with Joy for 2 weeks. Her family was wonderful during the meet and greet. Joy sent me photos of Maple everyday, and I can see him smiling and loved. She was very helpful, responsive, and professional while setting up Maples stay too. Highly recommended!”
“Mary and Marty always take great care of our dog. They’re easy to communicate with… quick to respond and keep us up to date on how Sully’s stay with them is going. Highly recommend!”
“Alisha was great with our 7 yr old coonhound, Beau!! Highly recommend. We had a situation where we needed to book an overnight boarding last minute and she was extremely accommodating and helpful. Our pup got along great with her and her pets. We could tell he was very comfortable there. She kept us updated throughout his visit, which is always greatly appreciated. We’ll definitely be rebooking when in the area :) thanks Alisha!!”
“Ava took good care of our boy while we were away for a couple days. She asked if we could speak after I requested the booking so I could give her extra details for how we take care of him at home. Ava communicated daily with pictures which was extra special. We hope to hire Ava again in the future and recommend her to you too!! ♡🐾♡🐾♡”
“April was amazing with Korra! She had such a fun time and was clearly so loved during her stay. We got pictures and updates everyday. Again, could clearly see how much fun she was having! This was Korra first 4th of July as well, so we weren’t sure how she was going to react to the fireworks. April did an amazing job at letting us know what she had planned and how she was going to create a safe and calm environment for the dogs. We got pictures and updates on how she was doing/did. I am so glad Korra spent her first fireworks season with April. She was so well cared for. I could not recommend April more. She has so much love and care for her own dogs that she shares with other dogs. Korra is so happy to be apart of Petey’s and Shawna’s friend group!”
“Sue & David we’re amazing from beginning to end! We had a call, meet & greet and they watched our dog for a week. They provided updates with pictures and not once did we have to worry while on vacation. They even let our little guy sleep with them. Do yourself a favor and hire them! You won’t regret it.”
“Andrea and Paul took wonderful care of my pup when I was passing through town on business. They were communicative and let him enjoy their home and company like one of the family. Pick up and drop off were very easy as well.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so grateful I found Juliana. I was so nervous leaving my baby in the care of anyone for the first time on an extended stay. Juliana took such good care of my Benito! Her communication was great and you can tell she truly is an animal lover. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you for caring for my Benito! 🫶🏽🐈⬛”

About: I've been surrounded by furry friends since day one! 🐶 Seriously, I can't remember a time without a doggo by my side. Thinking about all the pets I've had makes me so happy. 🥰 Anyone else feel like their pets are family? It's the best kind of love! Enjoying the freedom of open schedule currently at home full-time. So furry buddies will get Daily walks around the lake to offer a refreshing escape. Relaxing time outside under tree shade help me do some gardening🤣. Dogs will be created when I am not home. I currently own a golden retriever. She's a friendly dog. I don't have a fenced in yard my dog listens to commands. Leashes and yard leads will be used. At night dogs will be in their creates.
“Shanie is a most caring and knowledgeable person to watch after your pet. You can tell she loves them all as family and the pets love her right back. I will definitely use her again for my next vacation.”
“This was our second time booking with Duane and we couldn’t be happier with the great care he showed our Havapoo, Chico! Thank you so much Duane! Chico comes home so relaxed after staying with you which confirms how well he is taken care of! Thank you for the daily updates and pictures while he was with you. We appreciate it and We highly recommend your services!”
“Wow!!! Where do I start. Sheree was amazing with my dog whom I feel is so hyper. I never had to worry about what he was doing or how the day and night was going because Sheree kept me updated everyday that I was on vacation. She sent photos and reassurances and it eased the pain of leaving my dog for so many days. She definitely has a caring spirit about where you just know your dog is in good hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again for the overnight stay. From my family and Yoshi we truly thank Sheree.”
“I can't imagine a better person to leave our Parker Boy with! Heather took the best care of our dog and sent pictures and videos to keep our minds at ease while we were apart from him. She made him feel like a part of the family and made sure to do whatever she could to make him comfortable. We would recommend Heather to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friends!!”
