“Absolutely wonderful with my two dogs; they were taken very good care of, and I got daily pupdates! She was very responsive and understanding to the times I needed to drop off/ pick up my dogs. I will most certainly be boarding my dogs here again when needed.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our puppy received during his overnight stay. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident he was in great hands. Communication was excellent — we received updates and pictures that reassured us he was comfortable and having fun. Our pup can be energetic (typical puppy!), and they handled him with patience and care. He came home tired, happy, and clearly well loved. We truly appreciate the attention and kindness shown to him and would recommend!”
“This was Ruby’s first time being away from us and her first boarding experience and it couldn’t have gone better. Nora has an excellent environment for multiple dogs and Ruby got along with all the dogs and it really helped socialize and grow her confidence. She was very well taken care of and they sent lots of pictures of how much she was enjoying her time there. Thank you Nora!”
“Nikole was a wonderful sitter for Max. She knew I was not comfortable leaving him because I have only left him with a relative before. She sent photos every day and it seemed like he made himself at home right away. I think Max really enjoyed himself and I think he is even more comfortable around other dogs now. Thank you Nikole for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Tawny was super awesome. I felt 100% about leaving Nisa with her. I always got a sweet picture and update at the end of the day and knew Nisa was happy at Tawny’s doggie paradise.”
“Kelly took great care of our Indy boy! He spent 7 days with her and her family and he came home happy and worn out! She sent pictures and videos daily and gave great updates. We will be booking with Kelly again!”
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!
“Trista watched our two girls over the weekend and they both took to her easily. We received pictures and updates daily. We will be using Trista’s services again in the future.”
“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”
“Wonderfully patient with my cat, Charlie, who needed time to adjust to their cat and dog. After spending some solo time with our Charlie in closed off parts of the house, Charlie voluntarily entered the rest of the house, accepting of her new friends! I appreciated Matthew and Ellie taking the required time and care to make the adjustment go well. Will definitely consider using them again.”
“Celsei is amazing! She sent me so many photos and videos, as well as many updates. She relieved any anxiety i had about being away from my dogs for a week, i felt so comfortable knowing how well my dogs were being taken care of. I will definitely be boarding with her again”
“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”
“Alex watched our Jolene for a week this time, we always love having her stay with him. She’s always so happy to see him and Benny and Magnolia. We were able to be away with confidence that she was being well looked after.”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”
“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!”
About: Hello! My name is Savannah and I am a postdoctoral researcher in the biology department at IU. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and more). I have experience with small and large dogs, hyperactive/nervous dogs, as well as senior dogs so you can be assured that I know how to handle just about any dog personality. I am very responsible, considerate and dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and healthy. I consider it an honor to be welcomed into your pet’s life and take my job very seriously. Please feel welcome to ask me any and all questions you might have. Thank you so much for considering me! I cannot wait to hear from you and your pet! I have fairly flexible working hours as I largely can make my own schedule. I am available during the week and weekends as well as holidays. I have a fenced in yard if you would like your pet to stay with me, but I am also happy to take them for walks in addition to letting them play in the backyard. 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.
“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.”

“We had another sitter booked; our pet and everything were packed in the car, ready to meet the sitter & leave for our trip; then the sitter ended up being a no-show. Thankfully, Nikole replied to my SOS on Rover! We were able to take our precious Princess Pickles to Nikole's right away. She & her spouse were incredible! They listened to our concerns, and were very understanding and supportive. They took excellent care of our baby girl. Nikole knew we were anxious and apprehensive, and sent daily pics and videos. Nikole and her family gave Pickles time and space to get used to her new surroundings, and helped the process by brushing her and giving her treats (her favorite things!). In the past, after being boarded with other sitters, Pickles got sick, was extremely clingy, had nightmares, etc. None of these things happened after her time with Nikole! It was an easy, seamless transition. We are SO grateful and thankful for Nikole and her family! She's the only sitter for us from now on. We can't recommend her enough. (Just don't bombard her with bookings so she's not available when we need her. 😉)”
“Brandon was great with Malcom! He made sure to stay for the whole visit and made sure Malcom was worn out by the time he left. Brandon is also very easy to communicate with and responds within a timely manner. Would definitely recommend!”
“Zoe was great! This was my first time leaving my newly adopted kitty baby, but I immediately felt at ease when I met her and saw her interaction with Wallace. She was easy to communicate with, reliable, and took good care of my boy.”
About: I have always loved dogs/cats and giving them the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule at the moment which allows me to help you and your pets! Advice: if you have a dog that is not fully house-trained, it’s best to book house-sitting instead of drop-in visits to insure growth on the progress you have already made. I like to be very attentive to each pup and reward them for their good behavior learning! (Also, when I house/dog sit I do a daily surface clean/sweep/mop/etc) as a courtesy/no extra charge! I work part-time as a dental hygienist and on my own chosen schedule. I will make taking care of your dog/cat my main priority for the day(s) needed.

He doesn't bark much and we do not feed him human food. We have plenty of toys and treats! If your pup likes human food, then we can make an exception for them if you would like;)
About: Hi! I am a current Veterinary Assistant, and former Surgery Tech/Animal Behavior volunteer. I have had cats and other pets my entire life, and have tons of experience with pet sitting of all types, and as a dog walker for an animal shelter and another walking service app. I can administer any medications, as I do that every day all day at work. I am accustomed to all types of medical and behavioral needs. I have all kinds of relevant experience but the most important thing is that I can provide safe, reliable, and dedicated care for your pet while you're away. I know how stressful it is to trust your pet and potentially your home with a stranger, but I can assure you, they are in the best hands with me. I will respect your home, your rules, and your pet! I work Wednesdays through Saturdays, and am off Sundays through Tuesdays, and will be fully available during those days. I have no other commitments during those off days. I have only 2 hamsters, so I can provide tons of attention to your pet! I can board cats at my place, but otherwise I can do dog sitting at yours, and can do stop-in visits or just walks. Whatever your pet needs to be comfortable. I am flexible.
About: Hi! I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid and somehow became the go-to “can you check on my pet?” person for all my friends. I also have a cat, so I’m fluent in both tail wags and judgmental stares. I’m a local teacher, which means I’m patient, responsible, and fully background checked (trusted with a room full of kids—so your fur babies are in good hands). I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they’re happy, safe, and maybe a little spoiled. You can trust me with your fur children—I promise to return them just as adorable as you left them :)
About: I have 2 dogs, a 6 year old mix and 3 year old mix. They are like my children. I've had many dogs growing up and I love caring for them. I'm always game to play with dogs. I work full-time but it would be nice to make some extra cash doing something I really love in my evenings. I love being with dogs and finding out their personalities and what they like. I have a small fenced in yard and 2 dogs currently. One of my dogs does not like to play with other dogs so I won't be Introducing her to anyone's pet. So I will be tending to dogs without my own pets.
About: I've had a pet dog for as long as I can remember. My parents taught me the value of having a happy, healthy companion and instilled a love of pets and pet care that will last a lifetime. I've interacted with a variety of dogs over the years, both in my house and in friends' houses, from small Pomeranians to medium Beagles to large Black Labs and Great Danes. I currently have a Boxer/Bulldog mix who I've had since he was 6 weeks old, so your puppy will be comfortable with me! I know that trusting me with your pet is trusting me with a member of your family, and I take that honor very seriously. I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I currently work part time sporadically throughout the day, so I have plenty of opportunities to visit your pet during the day. I also have full availability in the evenings and at night, so overnight visits are not an issue. As I mentioned, I currently have a Boxer/Bulldog mix who would love to keep your pet company! I live in a quiet neighborhood a short drive away from Clinton Dog Park, so on nice days, we can take a trip to the park and run around there as well.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and the trust I’ve built with clients over the past nine years. I’ve cared for a wide range of pets, including large dogs, cats with diabetes or thyroid issues, deaf dogs, sugar gliders, and more. I’m comfortable handling special needs pets and providing medical care as needed, including trips to the vet. Some clients trust me to stay in their home for extended periods, while others rely on me for daily check-ins, showing the confidence owners have in my reliability and dedication. My experience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals allow me to provide a safe, caring, and personalized experience for every pet I watch. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I’m organized, attentive, and flexible. Over the years, I’ve developed a rhythm that ensures pets receive consistent care, whether it’s feeding, exercise, medication, or simply companionship. When house sitting, I adjust my schedule to the pet’s needs—taking dogs for walks, giving medications on time, and providing attention and play. Even during check-ins, I make sure each pet gets the care, love, and monitoring they need. Pet care is a natural part of my day, and I treat it with the same reliability and dedication that owners would. At this time I can't host pets in my home due to my apartment lease polices. I'm more than happy to go to your pets and care for them!
“Ashli was great with our dog! She arrived early for a meet & greet and was very patient with our loud demand-barker. He was very comfortable, and we're very happy to have found someone we can trust to take care of him while we're away.”
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.

“Nikole and her family were great to Eva. She had fun with Daisy the whole day in their yard. Nikole sent me pictures and updates during the day. It was cold and Nikole followed my advice to put the winter coat on Eva as she is not used to the snow. Also, Eva is Brazilian and Nikole was able to learn few words in Portuguese to be able to communicate with her. I booked Nikole to watch Eva next week again and will continue to book her every time I travel. Eva has a second home in Indiana.”
“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.”

About: I grew up with several small dogs and I currently have three, so I have experience with taking care of their needs and giving attention to multiple dogs at once! I’m available for boarding and dog sitting on weekends and weekdays. I’m home most days so my schedule is fairly open. When I'm available, I rarely leave the house for more than an hour at a time. I have a fenced in yard for your dog to safely enjoy fresh air! I also have two small crates and the ability to segment off parts of the house with baby gates if the need arises.

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: From a young age I have helped take care of our pets of all ages and stages. I love all dogs and as a pet parent myself, I would love to care for your dog like my own. I’m currently working from home and I have plenty of time for pet care. Playtime, walks, and potty breaks can all be provided with no issue. I have a fenced in yard in the quiet countryside and a corgi that would love a friend to play with. Both of us will be able to provide plenty of playtime.
About: I started taking care of and training my first family dog when I was only 6 years old! I have had dogs of all breeds and sizes my whole life. I adopted my first cat when I was 19 and have cared for 2 of them since then. My current pets include my cat, Nala who is a 5 year old loving girl. Brock, my 9 year old 106 pound Pit Bull is a giant baby. And last but not least, Bella, is my 5 year old 41 pound Puggle. I know how to care for play with and handle dogs and cats alike! It doesn’t matter if they are old or young, and also big or small!!! I am also familiar with administering oral and topical medication to your dog or cat! I work as a delivery driver and am able to take frequent breaks when it is slow at work so I am available almost anytime!!! All my animals take turns sleeping in bed with me because we all love to cuddle. Unfortunately, I cannot watch your pet in my home because my Pit Bull, Brock, doesn’t really care for other dogs other than his sister. But I can handle 100+ pound dogs on the leash with no problem as I have a 106 pound dog myself.

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.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—pets have always been part of my family! Right now, I have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. I don’t just work with cats and dogs either—I’ve cared for everything from hamsters to horses, and even birds! No matter the animal, I’m confident, patient, and know how to make them feel safe and loved. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and get some extra attention, I’m happy to match their vibe. I’ll make sure they’re fed on time, get their exercise, and receive plenty of love while you’re away. I work online, so my schedule is super flexible. Need a midday walk or extra check-ins? I’ve got you covered! I’m also a photographer, so you can expect lots of cute photo updates of your pets while you’re gone 📸 I truly love meeting new people and their animals, and I’d love to work with you to make sure your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for! Pet care is part of my everyday life! With a flexible, work-from-home schedule, I’m able to easily build my day around walks, feedings, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. One thing I ask is to be made aware of any pineapple scented items(soaps, air fresheners, food, etc.) before entering the home as I am severely allergic. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and well-loved, and I always provide updates while you’re away.

About: I’m 18 years old and just graduated High school I have grown up around dogs my whole life, including 2 bulldogs, a mastiff, and a boxer. Two and a half years ago I got my own Australian Shepherd, and caring for him has given me even more hands on experience. I have pet sat before and truly loved it. I’m responsible, patient, and don’t mind cleaning up accidents or handling energetic pets. I was involved in 4-H for three years, which helped me gain even more experience working with animals. I’m currently in college for massage therapy and have a flexible schedule, with availability on any days except Mondays and Thursdays. I’m currently in college for massage therapy, but I still have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets.

I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated while you’re away with texts/ pictures.
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: Hello! Former veterinary assistant, forever animal lover here! Have spent the last 14 years working with dogs and cats in various professional contexts: boarding and daycare, animal shelters, high-volume spay/neuter, and, more recently, full-service veterinary medicine. Additionally, I have been caring for dogs and cats in my own home since I was young. I will offer your pet/s compassionate, attentive care.

“Absolutely wonderful with my two dogs; they were taken very good care of, and I got daily pupdates! She was very responsive and understanding to the times I needed to drop off/ pick up my dogs. I will most certainly be boarding my dogs here again when needed.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our puppy received during his overnight stay. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident he was in great hands. Communication was excellent — we received updates and pictures that reassured us he was comfortable and having fun. Our pup can be energetic (typical puppy!), and they handled him with patience and care. He came home tired, happy, and clearly well loved. We truly appreciate the attention and kindness shown to him and would recommend!”
“This was Ruby’s first time being away from us and her first boarding experience and it couldn’t have gone better. Nora has an excellent environment for multiple dogs and Ruby got along with all the dogs and it really helped socialize and grow her confidence. She was very well taken care of and they sent lots of pictures of how much she was enjoying her time there. Thank you Nora!”
“Tawny was super awesome. I felt 100% about leaving Nisa with her. I always got a sweet picture and update at the end of the day and knew Nisa was happy at Tawny’s doggie paradise.”
“Kelly took great care of our Indy boy! He spent 7 days with her and her family and he came home happy and worn out! She sent pictures and videos daily and gave great updates. We will be booking with Kelly again!”
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!
“Trista watched our two girls over the weekend and they both took to her easily. We received pictures and updates daily. We will be using Trista’s services again in the future.”
“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”
“Wonderfully patient with my cat, Charlie, who needed time to adjust to their cat and dog. After spending some solo time with our Charlie in closed off parts of the house, Charlie voluntarily entered the rest of the house, accepting of her new friends! I appreciated Matthew and Ellie taking the required time and care to make the adjustment go well. Will definitely consider using them again.”
“Celsei is amazing! She sent me so many photos and videos, as well as many updates. She relieved any anxiety i had about being away from my dogs for a week, i felt so comfortable knowing how well my dogs were being taken care of. I will definitely be boarding with her again”
“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”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”
“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!”
“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.”
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.

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: As a retired teacher, I’ve spent my life nurturing, encouraging, and caring for others, and that same patience and dedication extend to every dog I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where your furry friend can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a calm companion nearby, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. With years of experience building trust and creating positive relationships, you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved pet is receiving plenty of attention, affection, and gentle care. I look forward to treating your dog like one of my own! 🐾❤️ I am available to watch your dog for you if you need a short-term doggy daycare option or someone reliable to care for your furry family member while you’re on vacation for several days. I have a fenced-in yard and two fur babies to keep your fur baby company while you’re away. We will have regular yard playtime and potty breaks, every 2-4 hours during the day. I am also happy to come walk your dog for you if you prefer that.
“Mason has been such a great sitter! He first started with boarding my pup at his home and then has helped with drop in. He is very communicative and flexible. I absolutely recommend using him!”
