“This was my first time boarding with Nancy, and everything was great. My dog was very comfortable there, and I felt very reassured with the photos and updates. I felt like Lola had a nice vacation with new friends!”

“Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.”

“Jordan watched my 90 pound bully for a week while I was on vacation. She is very organized and great with communication. She provided me daily updates along with pictures. My dog was very happy to be in a home environment similar to what he is used to with a fenced yards and kids. She gave him plenty of attention and he did so well while there. I appreciate her taking such good care of him and I would definitely rebook in the future. Thank you so much Jordan!!”

“Bob & Judy were so kind and loving to our baby boy Duncan, he is pretty attached to us, but he did so well with them. She spoiled him so much I was not sure he was going to come back home with us! LOL Thank you both so much!”


“Cathy was send from above! She truly cared for our Marley and she even learned to applied insulin to accommodate our Marley’s needs. She is caring, compassionate and loving person that really cares about the well being of your dog. Words cannot describe how thankful we are for everything she did for our dog. Totally recommend her. She goes above and beyond for you. Thank you again Cathy, God bless you! 💞”

“Nichole is wonderful! She took very good care of our dogs for our week long vacation. My yorkie loved her son, who was very sweet to her. Nichole sent pictures and kept us up-to-date on everything. We will definitely use her services again!”

“My dog has horrible separation anxiety so I dread trips away from home. Using the warm and cozy home of Janis and Devin was the perfect solution. I received multiple pictures every day. I could tell my dog was happy and feeling a part of the family. When I picked him up he was not crazed and inconsolable. He also has not been extra anxious at home as he usually gets. I will use Janis and Devin again and again. I have the highest esteem and praise for their business. I HIGHLY recommend!”

“Mary S. took wonderful care of my 2 dogs during our vacation. 8 days is a long time to be away from them. She sent me photo and text updates almost daily. It was also during a bunch of thunderstorms and around firework time, and my dogs are so scared of the loud noises. Mary made sure they were comfortable and cared for! I highly recommend her and will hopefully have the opportunity to use her services again.”
“I have never left my Thor with anyone but my family, but I was happily pleased with Gianniana. I received pictures and my dog was playing and having so much fun. She did a wonderful job of taking care of him and I really appreciate meeting her on Rover.”

“Sonya and her family are very sweet, and their 2 dogs are well trained and friendly. Our Sadie fit right into the pack. She was happy when we dropped her off, and happy when we picked her up. I've already booked her next stay! I highly recommend Sonya!”

“Many many thanks to Joy and Dan! I was anxious leaving Winston with someone I did not know but right away they put me at ease. We had our meet and greet and Winston took to one of their children immediately. During Winston’s stay, Joy and Dan sent photo updates - Winston was having a great time and had settled in well. My only concern was that Winston was having so much fun he wouldn’t want to come back home! I cannot recommend Joy and Dan highly enough and will definitely rebook, pending their availability.”
“Bernice did an absolutely amazing job caring for my fur baby this past weekend! I was pretty nervous since he’s newly adopted, but she quickly put my mind at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent daily pictures and kept us updated on how his day was going, which meant so much to me. It was clear he felt completely comfortable and at home—honestly, he didn’t even want to leave! Her fenced-in backyard was a huge bonus and gave him plenty of space to play safely. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Bernice is the only person we’ll be booking with going forward!”

“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.”

“We can’t thank Debra & Michael enough for taking the best care of our Emme girl! I could tell from the minute I met them how amazing they were. I couldn’t have found a better couple to take care of our girl. Thank you so much!!! ❤️”

“Shanie took great care of my pup. Received multiple photos that put a smile on my face. Shanie was extremely flexible when my flight got delayed. I was so grateful. Thank you Shanie for an awesome job.”

“Jesseeka was AMAZING! ❤️ This was our first time using Rover so we were unsure what to expect. Our boy Bryant had a great time playing and snuggling. She communicated regularly and sent pictures. He came home happy and with a cute new bandana. We will definitely book again!”

About: I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with the care, attention, and companionship they need. I am patient, responsible, and dependable. Whether it's walking, playing, keeping them company, or following their daily routine, I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, so I have flexible availability throughout the week. I am available on weekdays after work and on weekends. I will make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care during every visit. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions, keep pets in a safe environment, and provide regular updates with photos. I will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and the same care I would give my own.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and dogs have always had a special place in my heart! Growing up, my family had dogs, horses, goats, chickens, cats, birds, fish—you name it. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they go on vacation. I understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re full of energy and love long walks or prefer cuddles and a relaxing day at home. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away by keeping their routine as normal as possible. You can expect plenty of playtime, belly rubs, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in good hands! I currently work full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM and have an hour commute each way. Because of this, I offer boarding for pets who are comfortable being alone for an extended period during the workday. I am fully available on weekends and can dedicate plenty of time to your furry family members! I also offer evening dog walks and drop-in visits after work. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule or your pet’s specific needs—I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible! Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving home away from home! I live in a top-floor apartment with carpeted stairs and plenty of windows, perfect for curious pups who love to look outside and watch the world go by. There’s also a private dog park directly across the street from my complex, giving your dog a great place to play and burn off some energy. My neighborhood is quiet and pet-friendly, making it ideal for long walks and plenty of sniffing adventures. I make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, treats (with owner approval!). My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away, treating them like part of my own family.

“Rebeccah is the only person I trust to take care of my fur babies when I'm away. She always goes above and beyond for them and I absolutely enjoy reading her daily updates!”


“Shanie was so wonderful. I adopted an older cat with health issues last fall named Tony who requires insulin injections. I went out of town for the first time since bringing her home and was so relieved when I found Shanie because she seemed to have so much experience and I knew I could trust her to take good care of both my cats, but especially Tony. She sent me pictures and videos and super detailed updates twice a day and even went above and beyond when she stopped by to give the cats extra pets one day when she was nearby checking on a different pet. She seemed to really enjoy spending time with them. I feel so relieved to have found Shanie and to know I have a reliable person to care for my babies in the future! Thank you so much, Shanie!”

“We had such a great experience! Chyanne took amazing care of Winnie—making sure she was fed, happy, and got plenty of playtime and attention. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Winnie was in such good hands. You can truly tell she cares about the animals she looks after. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Winnie! 🐾💛”


“Meredith is wonderful. She is caring and kind. She managed to befriend our cat within days of meeting. Our cat doesn’t let anyone near with expectation of my mother and me. The cat came out to greet and play with her every day. We were so happy. We felt very comfortable with her in home. Thank you Meredith.”

“Lauren was very responsive and took many photos during her drop-in visit with my dog. It made me feel so much better knowing my dog was able to stretch his legs while I was away. Thank you so much!!”

“Julie took wonderful care of our 3 kitties, giving us such peace of mind while we were out of town. We knew they were in great hands, and Julie went above and beyond!! We’ll gratefully rebook with Julie anytime we have to go out of town in the future. Thank you so much Julie!!!”

“Ashley was wonderful going above and beyond by washing food plates and keeping us updated while we were away. Our cats were happy and healthy when we returned from our trip, would have Ashley watch them again. Highly recommended.”

“Leanne was great with our 2 cats. I was able to text her while I was away, & that allowed me to enjoy my trip more because I knew the cats were being taken care of. The cats really loved her; our shy one came right up to her! She even gave them treats & brought in our mail. Great job!!”


“Nancy and Mark took excellent care of our kitty while we were away. We felt completely comfortable and at ease knowing they were there to check in on our kitty. I was apprehensive at first to use a service like rover but I am so glad that I did and even happier to know there are people like Nancy close by to help us while we are away!”


About: Hi! I'm Cierra, and I love caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. With years of experience looking after dogs, puppies, and cats. I will make sure your fur babies are fed, exercised, and showered with attention while you're away. Multiple pets? No problem! I treat every pet like my own, keeping them happy, safe, and loved every step of the way.
“Niamh was such a great sitter for my cat while I was gone! She always sent routine pictures and videos and even watered my plants for me while I was gone! Would definitely book with her again :)”

“This was the first time I’ve ever used a pet sitter. We have an older cat that has kidney issues and we’ve had to switch her to a wet food diet. Last time we went out of town for a two days she lost almost 1/2 a pound of body weight and it took two weeks to get her back to eating normally. So we were concerned about leaving again. Samantha did a great job keeping us updated on how our cat was doing and when we got home she actually gained weight because she was so comfortable and eating normally. I would not hesitate to have Samantha look after our pets again she was so caring and you can tell she truly loves her time with the animals. Excellent job!”

About: Your sweeties are in caring hands 💛 ✅ Experience with pets of all ages & personalities. ✅ Work from home: Attentive to strict care plan. ✅ Happy to assist with training/manners 🐾. As a pet owner of 35 years and a life-long animal lover, I’ve cared for my own puppies, kittens, and elderly pets over the years. Their quirky personalities have brought nothing but joy to our home! I’ve also cared for exotic littles such as snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters, gerbils, chameleons, ferrets, parakeets, Sun Conure Parrots and farm animals (chickens, pigs, horses, “farm sitting”)! Don’t hesitate to ask if you need additional help. We have 2 dogs of our own: One loves to socialize and play with our guests, while the other usually searches for the sunniest window in the house, to nap until the next potty/treat break. Working from home allows me to be attentive to strict potty/medication and walk/play schedules (if your pet is in need of a regimented care plan). I offer drop-in play dates, walks, back-yard potty/play dates and feeding/litter changes, based upon your instruction. I’m also able to host your pets in my home, if you need a sitter. Before booking boarding services with new clients, I request a meet & greet, so that I can get to know everyone and have a clear understanding of your pet’s personality and needs 😁!
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.

“After a bad experience with a previous sitter we were so grateful to find Nancy and Mark. They gave us such peace of mind throughout our meet and greet and then Odie’s daycare! They weren’t phased at all by his high energy and it was such a relief to know he was having a great day while we were at work. Thank you thank you thank you!”

About: Got a cavalier when kids left 20 years ago and have been in love with and taken care of pups for family and friends ever since! I work part time as a sub at a local school lunchroom. Consequently, I have a good deal of time to do what I enjoy most, spending time with and caring for pups!! (and on occasion, cats!) I live in a lovely neighborhood with a nice balance of open space and paths for walks. My husband (also a dog lover) and I have a fenced yard and pup bowls and leashes and toys and even a small crate (from Harley) if your pup feels better taking a nap in it! (and he fits!)

“Michelle was great! She was more than willing to accommodate last minute and very thorough throughout the day with how my dogs were doing. She has a perfect back room that is calm and quiet for pups!”
“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. My puppy Reese was happy and comfortable there, getting to play with little kids and another dog. He came home wiped out! Jordan sent several photos during his stay and communicates really well. Definitely recommend her for your pup!”

“Jacob came to the rescue I. I needed a last minute dog sitter and have now found someone I will continue to use very friendly and Stryker seemed very happy!! He put my mind at ease with pictures during the day!! Thank you Jacob I will be calling again!”

About: I’ve taken care of family and neighboring pets for the last 20+ years. I blog for the pet industry and have a lot of love for our four-legged friends. I will take care of your pets as if they were mine! I am open to walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting! I work from home and can work in walks or play time whenever needed! I also am happy to house-sit during the week or on weekends to accommodate your schedule. I live in an apartment that does not allow pets but I would keep your pets happy in their own home by utilizing their toys and yard that they are familiar with!
“We can't recommend Julia highly enough! She is caring, considerate and responsive. Our rescue dog has enjoyed doggy day care and weekly walks with her. We appreciate the peace of mind we have leaving our sweet friend in Julia's care.”

“Marcella was great!! It was my first time using Rover for daycare and she was very cooperative and understanding. I had very specific times of drop off and pick up and Marcella was perfectly accommodating. Also, when Marcella first met my dog I knew my dog would be comfortable spending all day with her. She was very sweet and friendly with my pup and they did end up having a great day together!! Would definitely recommend Marcella for any and all of the Rover services she offers. Thank you Marcella! Until next time!”

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.
About: I’m the person people rely on to baby sit. I have the love and passion to care and attend to dogs as my own. I have experience as a medical assistant which allows me to make rational decisions to maintain a safe environment for your beloved pet. Self taught cpr and other emergency procedures. I’m currently a home stay dog mom and would love to give my love and attention to other dogs and cats. I’m available and flexible to work with the parent. I have a friendly dog that loves company and would help your dog settle in for a fun baby sitting date. Safe uncluttered clean environment pet friendly. Walking paths available for the dog to enjoy for a potty break. Back yard available, spacious two floor.
“Patty is wonderful. I have had my pup for 6 weeks now and she gets so excited when she knows she is going to see Patty. I am stopping my regular daycare and will be using Patty full time as of 04/29/2024 5 days a week. When Grace Anne comes homes she is happy and tired having a full day with Patty and her day care pals!!”

“Shannon and her family were incredible with our pup. She came home happy and tired each day. We felt very comfortable leaving Lola with them and we got regular updates. Her kids and Lola became the best of friends! Thank you so much again for caring for her!”

“April was such a fantastic sitter! She has years of experience and you can tell she cares for your pet! She was attentive to our Aussie’s special needs and we are thankful for her flexibility and her kindness.”

About: I've taken care of family pets (cats and dogs) for 15+ years now, and on my own I a have two cats. My schedule is flexible, though my apartment does not allow for dogs and I prefer to pets sit at the pet's home, where they are most comfortable and familiar. I do not have experience caring for pets with serious medical conditions, but I have given dogs their medication on previous jobs. I am currently only available on weekends, though as I transition out of teaching my schedule will open up. I am available for any emergencies over the holidays. My apartment does not allow for dogs, and would prefer not to test how my cats would respond to other animals as it has been just them in my apartment for a few years now. I also believe that it's best to sit for apet in their own home where I am the only thing they have to adjust to. I am fastidious about following owner directions. My cats are fairly low-maintenance, but I also have experience with high-energy dogs like boxers, and pet size does not matter.
“Meredith walked our puppy for 3 months and he loved her. She helped so much with his leash training and learning how to heal. I cannot say enough about how much she helped out and how much our dog loves and trusts her. Highly recommend.”

About: I am a veterinary assistant and I am currently trying to get into veterinary school. I have the knowledge and experience to keep your pet safe and take action should any issues arise! I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday as a veterinary assistant. I can stop by during my lunch break and after work as needed, and I am available all day Friday-Sunday! I'm happy to accommodate any request that you might have for your pet, as I know that each one is unique and special in their own way! Personally, my dog has bad allergies, and I know how important it is for him not to deviate from his diet.
“My dog and I were very happy with the care Julie provided. She walked my dog in the rain while I was at work, and I really appreciated her reliability. I was worried the weather might cause her to cancel, but she still showed up and took great care of my dog. Julie is professional, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We look forward to booking with her again. 😊”

About: I’m currently employed at a local animal hospital, working specifically in the boarding department! Meaning my whole job is to be responsible of 20+ animals at a minimum. I have 3 years of experience, I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs throughout my experience, including sweet, energetic pups, reactive or fearful dogs, strong pullers, and senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I’m comfortable handling dogs with different temperaments and understand how important it is to stay calm, confident, and attentive in every situation. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or needs a slower pace, medication, or gentle handling, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping owners updated and reassured. I’m pretty flexible! With school i’m mostly not available during the day but weekends and breaks i am happy to stop by and care for pets! I prioritize animal care above all! I am very aware of all animals needs and how i can meet them! I’d be honered to take care!

About: I’ve worked at a dog hotel, and I’ve pet sat for both cats and dogs. I’ve never met a dog that didn’t like me, and I’ve never met a cat that didn’t tolerate me. I’m a student pilot, so some days I have about 2 and a half hours where I won’t be available. Otherwise I have a very flexible schedule and can spend all day or any time caring for your pet. I don’t have any pets of my own, but I’m good at making anyone’s pets friendly with me. I’ve done daily check-ins and up to two weeks staying at someone’s house to keep their dog active and happy.
“Kaley put my mind at ease and treated our furry family members with love and care. She is prompt and the dogs love her walks and tummy scratches. Kaley is my first pick when we need help with our puppies.”

“Brooke is super friendly, and responsible. She came out to visit us the day before the dog walking appointments and my dog ran right to her which was a comforting sign. We were traveling through the area in our RV and felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in Brooke’s care while we visited Chicago for the day. We highly recommend Brooke! She’s energetic, and perfectly capable of caring for big, strong and sweet pups. 5 stars! ⭐️”

““Megan was fantastic! She was very polite, knowledgeable about dogs, and really listened to all my needs and concerns. We truly appreciated her punctuality—it made my surgery week a bit easier and less stressful.””

About: In my years of life, I’ve always had pets. I currently have eight cats of my own and help take care of my parents dog! I rescued ten of my cats throughout my life from living on the street as kittens and raised them from kitten formula to adult cat food. Full time I’m a house cleaner, so I’m surrounded by my client’s pets every single day. They are like my own and it’s the best part of my job. Due to my current unemployment, I am available seven days a week, any time of the day to care for your fur child(ren)! 🥰 please do let me know if your times are flexible. I am available to walk dogs, feed, and play with your pets. I’m even willing to scoop litter boxes and spend time with pets that may experience anxiety being alone all day.
“Tricia is fantastic! She was available at super late notice, responds quick to messages and took great care of my pup. Ella loved spending time w her and she even brought my delivered packages in. Tricia is very nice, trustworthy and goes above and beyond! Will definitely reach back out to her next time I need someone to take care of my crazy Doodle!”

“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!”

“Brooklyn has done a great job with my pup. Excellent communication and takes good care of him. She is the first person I’ve used on this app and definitely grateful I got a good person.”

“Niamh takes awesome care of my sweetie girl while I am working! She gives my dog lots of pets, play time, and a good walk while I am gone. She also goes the extra mile if my pup needs anything, like fresh water or if she has an accident. Thank you SO much! :)”

“As a new dog caregiver, leaving my adopted pup for the first time, I couldn’t have asked for a better human than Samantha! She was kind, patient, warm and thoughtful with my pup and also with me! She understood my anxiety and was able to give me calm and detailed feedback with each visit. It was only four days away, but it meant the world to me to have someone willing to go above and beyond to make it a success for my pup and for me!”

“Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.”

“Jordan watched my 90 pound bully for a week while I was on vacation. She is very organized and great with communication. She provided me daily updates along with pictures. My dog was very happy to be in a home environment similar to what he is used to with a fenced yards and kids. She gave him plenty of attention and he did so well while there. I appreciate her taking such good care of him and I would definitely rebook in the future. Thank you so much Jordan!!”


“Cathy was send from above! She truly cared for our Marley and she even learned to applied insulin to accommodate our Marley’s needs. She is caring, compassionate and loving person that really cares about the well being of your dog. Words cannot describe how thankful we are for everything she did for our dog. Totally recommend her. She goes above and beyond for you. Thank you again Cathy, God bless you! 💞”

“Nichole is wonderful! She took very good care of our dogs for our week long vacation. My yorkie loved her son, who was very sweet to her. Nichole sent pictures and kept us up-to-date on everything. We will definitely use her services again!”

“Mary S. took wonderful care of my 2 dogs during our vacation. 8 days is a long time to be away from them. She sent me photo and text updates almost daily. It was also during a bunch of thunderstorms and around firework time, and my dogs are so scared of the loud noises. Mary made sure they were comfortable and cared for! I highly recommend her and will hopefully have the opportunity to use her services again.”
“Sonya and her family are very sweet, and their 2 dogs are well trained and friendly. Our Sadie fit right into the pack. She was happy when we dropped her off, and happy when we picked her up. I've already booked her next stay! I highly recommend Sonya!”

“Many many thanks to Joy and Dan! I was anxious leaving Winston with someone I did not know but right away they put me at ease. We had our meet and greet and Winston took to one of their children immediately. During Winston’s stay, Joy and Dan sent photo updates - Winston was having a great time and had settled in well. My only concern was that Winston was having so much fun he wouldn’t want to come back home! I cannot recommend Joy and Dan highly enough and will definitely rebook, pending their availability.”
“Shanie took great care of my pup. Received multiple photos that put a smile on my face. Shanie was extremely flexible when my flight got delayed. I was so grateful. Thank you Shanie for an awesome job.”

“Jesseeka was AMAZING! ❤️ This was our first time using Rover so we were unsure what to expect. Our boy Bryant had a great time playing and snuggling. She communicated regularly and sent pictures. He came home happy and with a cute new bandana. We will definitely book again!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and dogs have always had a special place in my heart! Growing up, my family had dogs, horses, goats, chickens, cats, birds, fish—you name it. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they go on vacation. I understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re full of energy and love long walks or prefer cuddles and a relaxing day at home. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away by keeping their routine as normal as possible. You can expect plenty of playtime, belly rubs, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in good hands! I currently work full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM and have an hour commute each way. Because of this, I offer boarding for pets who are comfortable being alone for an extended period during the workday. I am fully available on weekends and can dedicate plenty of time to your furry family members! I also offer evening dog walks and drop-in visits after work. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule or your pet’s specific needs—I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible! Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving home away from home! I live in a top-floor apartment with carpeted stairs and plenty of windows, perfect for curious pups who love to look outside and watch the world go by. There’s also a private dog park directly across the street from my complex, giving your dog a great place to play and burn off some energy. My neighborhood is quiet and pet-friendly, making it ideal for long walks and plenty of sniffing adventures. I make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, treats (with owner approval!). My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away, treating them like part of my own family.
“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!!”

“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”

“Angelique was wonderful to our little meatloaf while we were out of the country. She sent us many photos and kept us updated on anything new. We will definitely go with Angelique if we need a dog sitter in the future.”

“April is great! Our dog is shy at first but April and her pack made him feel at home. She spent quality one on one time with him and I’m so appreciative of that! She is a phenomenal dog sitter and we’re definitely going to use her pet sitting services again! Thanks for everything April!”

“I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She was extremely communicative and it was very obvious how great of a dog mom she is. I felt so happy knowing my baby was in her care. Moose had the best time!”

“Lilliana is a pro! She anticipated every need for our pup. I really appreciate her expertise and communication while she cared for our dog. Our silver lab is nervous and Lily knew exactly how to make Daphne feel at home. I absolutely will hire her again! Thank you!”
