“Amanda and Mike are great! Ashli loves them both and has such a great time when she is there. I never worry when my girl is there because she is well taken care of!”

“This was our dog's second stay with Deana and Gerald. They again took wonderful care of Savannah. They go out of their way to make sure she feels comfortable and are willing to deal with her little quirks. It is obvious that they love dogs! We are grateful to have found Deana and Gerald and highly recommend them!”

“She was very understanding of our somewhat bossy dog and clearly treated him as one of her own. Her dogs also seem to have great energy for welcoming new dogs into their home. She sent us updates with adorable pictures included and was very quick to respond to any questions. Would definitely use her again if we weren't moving states soon.”

“Chrissy and her family were GREAT! First time booking with her, and our Lab Winston had a great time and was very well cared for, as if part of their family. We will definitely book again.”

“We have used Patricia 4 times now. Our dog is super comfortable with her and enjoys hanging in her backyard. She sends us daily pictures and updates of cash. She loves him which makes it that much better for us when we are away. I would definitely recommend!”

“Caitlin and her husband did a wonderful job with Martin when we left the country for 6 days. When Martin first arrived at Caitlin’s home he had no desire to stay, but Caitlin’s husband was very patient with him and even allowed him to interact with their dog to make Martin feel comfortable before we left. When we picked Martin up you could tell he had so much fun with his new friends, and was very comfortable with Caitlin and her home. Caitlin kept us updated on how Martin was doing and sent pictures, which we looked forward to seeing when we were away from him. We have had other dog sitters and quickly made the decision that our dog would not return to thier home, but that was not the case with Caitlin and her husband. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a great dog sitter! They are top notch! We will definitely ask Caitlin and her husband to keep Martin in the future!”

“We love Abbie! We moved to the area this year and are so grateful for her. She has watched Penny a few times and it always goes well. It is nice to travel and know that our girl is safe and playing with other dog friends.”

About: I have owned and helped take care of my family’s animals since I was around 6 years old. I am a dog mom to a 4 year old golden retriever and she is my world. I would love to do anything that I can to help you and take care of your pet while you are away or just need an extra hand. I can go on walks with them, play with them, feed them, and keep them safe! I can also help bathe them and keep them groomed by brushing them. I am a photographer so I have relatively open availability. If you’re interested in hiring me, please let me know and we can talk about your pet and your expectations for me as a sitter. Looking forward to talking with you and meeting with your pets!! My dog is my entire world so I know exactly how anyone who trusts their pet with anyone else feels. There is so much love and support coming from my side of taking care of them. I talk to them like they are people and give them reassurance when it rains or when they miss you. For stop ins, it’s super easy for me to sit with them for up to an hour, giving them affection and company. For my own dog, we go on walks a lot and do tricks and puzzles to ensure brain exercise during the day. I do not have a fenced in yard yet, but we do walk with a leash around the town as well as use a beeping and vibrating collar to keep pets in our yard.
“Susan is so thoughtful and attentive. It was our first time leaving our boys with her and she did a great job with her communication with us and care of our pugs. We will use her again!”


“Our Dog (Lewis) enjoyed his stay and the communication with the host gave us peace of mind during our vacation that Lewis was doing well! We will use Hailey again in the future, Thanks Leilei”

“Leeann has cared for our girl, Cami, on two occasions, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She provides excellent care, keeping us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which gives us such peace of mind while we’re away. Her communication is outstanding—always clear, timely, and professional. What truly sets Leeann apart is her dedication. When a snowstorm disrupted our travel plans, she didn’t hesitate to extend Cami’s stay for two extra days, ensuring she was safe and well cared for. That level of flexibility and kindness means the world to us. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does, we wholeheartedly recommend Leeann. Your fur baby will be in the best hands!”

“As always, Michelle is amazing! We have been using Michelle to puppy-sit for over a year now & can’t imagine using anyone else. Finley loves spending time with Michelle and her dogs so much it’s like he doesn’t even realize he’s not at home 🖤”

“Leann was amazing with our dog! I was terrified to leave him and she made me feel so much better about the situation. We were going for a week on vacation and I got many updates and videos. I was honestly scared he wouldn't want to come home lol. That's how amazing she was. I recommend her to everyone. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter”

“Another fantastic weekend for Lyla at Kerri’s house! We’re so appreciative of Kerri and her fantastic pet care when we go out of town, and will continue to use her as long as she’s willing! :)”

“Jamie was wonderful with our dogs while we were visiting the Creation and Ark museum from out of town. She communicated with us before and during our dog's stay. She worked with our drop off and pick up hours, and took great care of our pets. We would absolutely use her again!”

“As always our "go to sitters" for Paisley. Walks, pictures and updates almost every day! She loves going there and we hate when they aren't available as we truly only trust them with our pup!”

“My 8 month old pup, Reggie, stayed with Katie and her doggies for almost 2 weeks and he loved every minute! Made best friends with their young pup and had a constant playmate the entire time. Katie sent daily photos and updates and made me feel so comfortable and reassured that Reggie was being taken care of like he was their own. He eats half dry, half wet food and she had no problem catering to his bougie needs. Thank you Katie! You are amazing and Reggie already misses BM! 100% would recommend Katie!”

“Jane was terrific! She sent adorable pictures and fun updates every morning and our dog clearly enjoyed his time with her. We will definitely try to book with her again in the future!”

“This was my first time using Rover & so I really had no idea what to expect. Haley set up a time to meet me & my dogs before we left for vacation which worked out so well. My dogs were familiar with her when she came the first time, and by the end of the week they clearly loved her! My dogs had a couple issues during the week, and Haley was a trooper and not phased one bit. I would definitely recommend her for your pets!”


“Tereasa is great with our dogs! She is reliable and a great communicator. She lets you know how the drop in visit went and provides plenty of pictures of her visit. Highly recommended!!”


“Allie was perfect for our cat Molly! Molly is a shy cat and Allie had such a kind and quiet demeanor Molly came out and warmed up to her right away. She gave Molly her oral medication with no issues and followed our instructions perfectly! We are so grateful to have found her.”


“We had a great experience with our drop-in visits! Communication was excellent, our dog was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We’d absolutely book again.”


“Katelyn was fantastic with our dogs! She graciously accepted our request on very short notice, and came over to meet them before checking in on them later. She gave updates with pictures and made us feel reassured that our dogs were in great hands!”
About: I stand out for my calm, reliable care and my ability to understand each pet’s personality and needs. I’m attentive to routines, clear on communication, and focused on making every animal feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work 7:30-4 Monday-Friday. I am happy to provide care during the week if the pet is used to going a full work day alone. I can provide full day care on weekends. :) I prefer to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I follow their normal routine; feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so everything stays familiar and stress free. I keep the home tidy, give plenty of attention, and make sure each pet feels safe and relaxed while their family is away.

“Harley seemed to have a good visit with Hannah! It was a semi-long day for Harley in the crate, but he was still tired for bed which means he must of had a good energy release when Hannah visited.”


About: I've had my cat since I was a little kid and have always loved her so much. I have always been a trusted person known to take amazing care of their kitties. I am very careful, always double checking and taking notes to make sure I am taking care of them the way they should be!

About: i have taken care of a variety of cats with diverse ranges in size, personality, and friendly towards both strangers and close relatives. I have trained my own cat, Korin (aka Mufassa) well! To the point he’s comfortable with commands although he does not always obey! 🤣 he’s got a very rogue personality. Korin is over a decade old at this point but still in prime condition and health! I honed my cat caretaker skills over the years with many feline furry friends, and will likely always have one in my life as cats bring a certain balance to life that is hard to otherwise find. Cats tend to be the easiest animal to care for from my experience, as they are the most obvious to read. You know fairly quickly where you stand, with both dogs and cats, and no matter where you stand you can build from that by maintaining constant gas in your JEEP Jesus Enthusiasm Encouragement Peace Long as you operate in the JEEP everything will be exactly what it is meant to be🎶

About: I’ve consistently taken care of cats for friends of the family. I have experience with both older cats and young ones. I love spending time with cats. I have lived in a home while taken care of cats or have done the daily check up for cats.

About: I have 7 years of experience pet setting throughout Northern Kentucky & Cincinnati, caring for animals with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve cared for pets belonging to professional athletes, as well as senior pets who need a little extra attention and patience. I’m comfortable giving medications, managing multiple pets, following specific routines, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I make sure to keep owners updated with pictures and messages throughout their time away, so they always know how their pets are doing and can see they’re happy and comfortable. I truly treat every pet like my own and always make their care my top priority.

“Ashley was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and book her again! She was super attentive and caring to our dog while we were away. She sent pics and took our dog for a walk everyday. Super kind and responsive. No issues at all. 😊”


“Rayme was amazing! We needed someone short notice, and even with that, her communication was great, and she made sure to spend time and give some love to all three of our fur babies. We're booking with her for a longer trip and definitely feel great about leaving our babies in her care!”

“Susie was amazing! I have a reactive APBT who is very anxious about meeting new people. Susie took the challenge in stride and after just a few meetings became best friends. I couldn’t have asked for anything more! Thanks Susie!!”

About: I've owned animals all my life. I currently own one outdoor cat and 4 horses. I recently lost my dog of 13 years to cushings disease. I currently work part time at a horse boarding facility and previously worked for several years as a kennel techician. Traveling for a week every year with my family, I know it's hard to find good quality care for my pets. I'd love to be able to provide that care to the pets of other families. I work part time at a horse boarding facility 4 days a week (Thursday - Sunday). I work 2 shifts each day for 3- 4 hours each and have a 2-3 hour break between my shifts. So, I'm basically home every day. We live in a ranch home with a fenced backyard. I live with my Mom who is a big dog lover and would welcome your dog with open arms.

About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and have experience working with cats in animal shelters. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens to senior cats, and can administer medications when needed. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to earn their trust while maintaining their routine. You can expect attentive care, photo updates, and a calm, reliable presence to help your cat feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”

“Jamie was so kind and flexible to help me when our family was going through some medical issues. She took good care of our dog, was an excellent communicator and sent us lots of pictures. We felt he was in great hands. We plan to use her again.”

About: I began professionally caring for animals 10 years ago when I got a job at PetSmart as a Pet Care associate! From there, I became a kennel technician at one of the top rated veterinary clinics in Cincinnati, Animal Care Center, and after a year of working there as a kennel technician they trained me to be a veterinary technician. I then had my first son and stayed home with him and had a farm with pigs, chickens, and all kinds of wonderful animals! When I decided to rejoin the work force, of course I went back to what I love most, caring for animals. I worked at two different kennels full time and helped manage one of them. I am able to give medications to pets and I’m comfortable giving insulin shots. If you’re interested in drop-ins for medication only while you’re at work or out, I can do that! I’m available any time, just discuss with me what would work best for you. During overnight stays, I will fill out a report to return to you so you will have complete details of how your pet was while you’re away! I’m also willing to FaceTime and send pictures so you know that your pet is safe and sound. Housemates would be my loving and gentle 5 year old son and my fiancé. I have a small chihuahua myself who is very friendly with all other pets. Since I do have children, any pets staying at my home must be child friendly. I’m always available whenever you need me. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m very flexible with my schedule. Short notice or planning months in advance? I’m here! I have two children who love pets and give them plenty of friendly attention. I also have a chihuahua who gets along with other dogs but is convinced she’s truly a cat so she doesn’t play much! Pets remain leashed at all times during walks and get walked multiple times a day during pet-sitting.

“So great! My puppy Steve loves going to Kimberly's house he has lots of playtime with the other dogs that are there, Kimberly keeps in contact with me sending pictures of my pup playing, she takes them on walks! I couldn't be more happy with the doggie daycare, Steve is much more happy and stimulated and I'm relaxed knowing he's being well taken care of and getting the love and attention he needs”

“What a delight! Senator had a wonderful time with Mindy and canine babies. Mindy was so kind and ready to spend time with him. He was exhausted afterward, but….that’s a compliment. Hope to visit again soon.”

“Angel is wonderful! We've been having a hard time giving our dog the attention and structure he needs during the day since we had our baby, so being able to place him with Angel a few days a week has been a lifesaver! She is very kind, and accommodating to our dogs specific quirks. Thanks Angel!”

“Joanne and her husband did a wonderful job watching Frankie! They provided updates throughout the day which I always appreciate. Would definitely recommend them to others and we will absolutely use them again in the future.”


“Karen is always great with Ivy. Ivy is well taken care of and loves going to daycare there because of Karen's loving nature. I highly recommend her if you're looking for a sitter.”

“Michael was great! He asked questions to know Rosie better. He kept in touch with us before her daycare date. During her stay he kept us up to date & sent pictures. We would definitely recommend them & would schedule with them again if we visit the area. It was a perfect situation for our Rosie! Thanks, Michael!”


About: We’ve had animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm in southern KY I am used to caring for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, birds, miniature pigs, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, etc! Our animals have always been apart of our family and go where we go! Our animals are allowed on the furniture, sleep in our bed, and love to visit our parents house! I am a stay at home mom so adding a pet into our daily routine is actually pretty easy! We’re used to care for our own dog! We just have them join whatever we’re doing which makes it easier. I have two Littles who love to play outside and take them walks so I usually just have our pups tag along! Our pups routine is usually out to pee in the morning, a walk after her breakfast, lots of outdoor play or sunbathe time while me and my two kiddos play our back, another walk once the kids take their naps, more play time with the kids, another walk after dinner, then a pee break before we get into bed for the night! I’m home all day as a stay at home mom and my husband is fully remote so our pup is used to having somewhere there for whatever she needs or when we do go out and about if we’re able to we take her! Our dog frequents our parents house for even more cuddles and play! Animals are always part of the family on our end.
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life and many other animals . I currently have 5 dogs, 3 cats and a bunny. I take pet sitting very seriously. I will take the best care of your pets when I am spending time with them. It brings joy to help others get the best care for their pets while they are away. I would prefer to take care of your pets in your home because that is where I think they feel most comfortable. However, I do watch dogs in my home and after a successful meet and greet with your dog(s) and mine we can set up a booking at my house.
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”

“First time using Rover, and I was very nervous leaving my puppy alone with a stranger. Abby took great care of Archie and he had a very fun day! Will definitely be asking her to doggy sit again!”

About: We only take dogs up to 30lbs due to my daughter being afraid of most bigger dogs despite us having one of our own. We will give consideration to dogs over that weight if we feel it’s a good fit. We have recently begun boarding in our home again and have adopted a new goldendoodle Lincoln on 3/22/24. He will be about 60lbs once full grown He’s sweet and full of energy and loves to play with all dogs. I have had my own dogs for about 11 years and have also taken care of friends pets although usually in their own homes.

About: I’ve taken care care of dogs/cats ranging from puppies to teenagers, and even elders. From owning all of the above, let me help you and your furry friends make the most of the short time we have :). I’m currently working part-time as a server as well as attending college at Cincinnati State. With that being said, my schedule is pretty flexible as I can choose which days I need off. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! When it comes to caring for a pet at your home, please do not hesitate to create guidelines and even a schedule. I understand having a new person at your home can be overwhelming. My primary goal is to create a peace of mind for you as well as easing the anxiety that your animal can have while you are away.
About: I've had a lifelong love of animals — caring for them was a responsibility I embraced from childhood and carried into adulthood. Over the years, I've dedicated time to researching training methods and best practices for working with dogs of varying breeds and temperaments. My hands-on experience includes Great Danes, German Shepherds, Cairn Terriers, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Goldendoodles, and Labrador Retrievers, giving me a well-rounded foundation for understanding different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I am currently a full-time student, so I have the flexibility to make sure your pets are walked and checked on through the day. I can also be available for overnights in your home or will consider boarding here on a case-by-case basis. I firmly believe that regular exercise is one of the greatest gifts you can give a dog — both for their physical health and their overall disposition. Ensuring every pup gets the activity they need for a calm, content evening is always my top priority. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, attentive, and caring environment.

About: I’ve taken care of family/friends dogs and cats. I’ve been a pet owner for 8+ years so I know how much animals mean to us! I’m saving up to pay for my studies and I currently work part time so the rest of my time can go to caring for your pet. I’m available from 8am-9pm weekdays!

About: Hello my name is Tyler. I’m 40 yrs old and I love spending time with dogs. I have been a dog owner and have trained all my own dogs. Currently I’m unemployed due to having brain surgery at the end of 24’ and then the follow up treatments taking most of 25’. So I have lotsa time, attention, and love to give your pet(s). This is actually my attempt at getting back into the working world. Can’t imagine a much better way to ease back into work than to help some people out with their pet care needs. I have a park walking distance from my house that I can take dogs to run around and use the bathroom and I live in a good area for walks. I am well versed on typical dog etiquette in public around other people and animals. I have experience with all types of dogs large and small. I’m a big guy and can handle the larger breeds pretty well usually, but also caring for the little ones as well. I always prioritize the pet(s) health and safety first, and then having some fun second :). I would love to provide a safe and relaxing spot for your pet(s). Also FYI - for boardings if pickup on the last day is after noon I will ask for a day fee of $35. I’m currently unemployed due to brain surgery I had this time last year to remove a large cancerous tumor. Luckily I recovered beautifully and quickly and am still fully functional, minus a little extra forgetfulness but nothing bad at all. So I’m available all days of the week, and have all my time, attention and love to give your pet(s). I’m very experienced with dogs of all types large, small, u name it. I’m a big guy at 6’4” and about 225 lbs so I can handle em all. I’m also rather calm and quiet which I believe helps animals feel at ease around me. I’d take care of yours as if they were my own! :) I take as much precaution as I can with all animals certainly someone else’s. The animals safety and health are my number one concern when caring for someone’s loved pet(s).
About: I have had animals since I was little and have always enjoyed taking care of them. I always make sure they are taken care of correctly and of course give them love. My neighbors and family have always trusted me to take care of their animals and I hope to take care of more animals everyday! I'm currently freshly out of highschool and taking care of my grandma part-time. I am going into my freshman year of college at ivy tech and am looking for a way to pay off my college years while still being able to take care of my grandma. While caring for pets I make sure they feel loved. I am a person to be trusted in your home and to watch your animals because I am a very respectful person and I am looking forward to having the honor of taking care of your animal!
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life, and for the last five years I’ve been the “call Lacey, she’ll do it!” pet sitter for family and friends.

One is 8 years old and the other is 2. I can do whatever your pets need!

About: I have 7 years of experience pet setting throughout Northern Kentucky & Cincinnati, caring for animals with different personalities, routines, and needs.

About: Hi there! I’m Steven - lifelong dog lover, experienced sitter and a pet parent of two sweet pups: a Bernese and a Chihuahua. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new, and my goal is to make every pup feel right at home and every owner complete at ease. With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, I have handled everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. I’m patient and love learning each dog’s quirk and routines. I work from home most days, which means your dog will get plenty of attention throughout the day. On the days I am in the office (usually Tuesday and Wednesday) I can adjust my schedule as needed to fit your pet’s routine. I live in a safe, pet friendly community in Colerain with plenty of green spaces for walks. I also love taking dogs to parks for a change of scenery or staying cozy indoors for extra belly rubs! Safety always come first. All outdoor time is fully supervised and your pup will never be off leash unless in a safely enclosed area. I truly treat every dog as my own and want to make your time away stress free. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! My day pretty much revolves around dogs — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Since I work from home most of the week, I’m able to keep a flexible schedule full of walks, playtime, and cuddles. My own pups keep me active and in a great routine, so adding another furry friend into the mix feels natural. Even on my in-office days, I make sure every dog gets the attention and consistency they’re used to. I care for every dog as if they were my own. At my home, pups are part of the family — they can lounge, play, and get lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe, and I always supervise outdoor time. When I’m watching pets in their own home, I do my best to keep everything just how they like it. I stick to their regular routine, give them lots of love, and keep you in the loop with updates and pictures so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and started pet sitting for neighbors at 12 years old. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, and other small pets. I’ve volunteered walking dogs and caring for cats in animal shelters and am comfortable administering medications and caring for both young and senior pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of dependable care, communication, and maintaining your pet’s routine while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine. I work part-time at a café, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. Outside of work, I prioritize providing attentive care, exercise, enrichment, and companionship to the pets I care for. I communicate regularly with owners and do my best to maintain each pet’s normal routine while they’re away. My priority is always keeping pets safe, comfortable, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household rules. During visits, I make sure pets have secure access to appropriate areas, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident their pets are receiving excellent care while they are away. I am experienced with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, and amphibians, and I adapt my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality.

About: Since about 12 years old my neighborhood friends would hire me to dogs sit while their family went out of town. I’ve always had a huge amount of love for animals so I never had any problem doing so. Fast forward 5 years later my parents began breeding French bulldogs. My siblings and I had a lot of responsibility on our hands are far as feeding them, bathing, keeping them groomed, making sure they’re up to date on shots and etc. I currently work from home so that’s enables me with plenty of free time to walk, play with/take to the park, and feed your lovely animals! In my home my dog is crate trained. I do have a crate for my puppy for if friends come over and are not comfortable with him I can put him away for a few hours. I prefer all animals be crate trained , but only go to the crate if they would like to do so. I do not mind dogs walking around my house. I have a puppy of my own so every morning I get up and take my puppy on a 30 minute walk as well as every evening once I get home from work. I have an animal friendly house so I usually let pups/kittys run around the house as long as they’ve been fed and taken out for a potty break.
About: Since having my own pets (cats, dogs, fish) since I was younger, I learned to take care of them and love them unconditionally. I’ve also helped family, friends and neighbors with their pets when in need. I always get excited when an animal/pet is around. I love every animal as my own! I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to play/check in on your pets. I’m available 3 days a week and on weekends. I also have an hour lunch break that I am willing to come by. Happy to come by in the early mornings and late evenings/nights as well. At this point in life, I can only come to your home to check in on your pet, take walks, play, etc! Hoping to be able to bring them to my home/overnight stays soon.

About: I am a reliable and compassionate pet sitter dedicated to providing high-quality care for every animal. As a pet owner of an adopted German Shepherd and cat, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. I enjoy staying active and ensure dogs receive regular exercise, including safe and engaging walks. I am also certified to foster through a local animal shelter, which has given me experience working with pets of varying temperaments and needs. I am committed to maintaining a safe, comfortable, and structured environment, and I prioritize each pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness at all times. Available during the week days and weekend to care for your fur babies! Available, throughout the day to check up on your furry friends! Plenty of walks and attention coming your pets way! Fenced in yard to keep your furry friend safe and secure. House has multiple rooms and floors plenty of space for a running around and space for themselves.

“Amanda and Mike are great! Ashli loves them both and has such a great time when she is there. I never worry when my girl is there because she is well taken care of!”

“Chrissy and her family were GREAT! First time booking with her, and our Lab Winston had a great time and was very well cared for, as if part of their family. We will definitely book again.”

“We have used Patricia 4 times now. Our dog is super comfortable with her and enjoys hanging in her backyard. She sends us daily pictures and updates of cash. She loves him which makes it that much better for us when we are away. I would definitely recommend!”

“We love Abbie! We moved to the area this year and are so grateful for her. She has watched Penny a few times and it always goes well. It is nice to travel and know that our girl is safe and playing with other dog friends.”

About: I have owned and helped take care of my family’s animals since I was around 6 years old. I am a dog mom to a 4 year old golden retriever and she is my world. I would love to do anything that I can to help you and take care of your pet while you are away or just need an extra hand. I can go on walks with them, play with them, feed them, and keep them safe! I can also help bathe them and keep them groomed by brushing them. I am a photographer so I have relatively open availability. If you’re interested in hiring me, please let me know and we can talk about your pet and your expectations for me as a sitter. Looking forward to talking with you and meeting with your pets!! My dog is my entire world so I know exactly how anyone who trusts their pet with anyone else feels. There is so much love and support coming from my side of taking care of them. I talk to them like they are people and give them reassurance when it rains or when they miss you. For stop ins, it’s super easy for me to sit with them for up to an hour, giving them affection and company. For my own dog, we go on walks a lot and do tricks and puzzles to ensure brain exercise during the day. I do not have a fenced in yard yet, but we do walk with a leash around the town as well as use a beeping and vibrating collar to keep pets in our yard.
“Susan is so thoughtful and attentive. It was our first time leaving our boys with her and she did a great job with her communication with us and care of our pugs. We will use her again!”


“Our Dog (Lewis) enjoyed his stay and the communication with the host gave us peace of mind during our vacation that Lewis was doing well! We will use Hailey again in the future, Thanks Leilei”

“As always, Michelle is amazing! We have been using Michelle to puppy-sit for over a year now & can’t imagine using anyone else. Finley loves spending time with Michelle and her dogs so much it’s like he doesn’t even realize he’s not at home 🖤”

“Leann was amazing with our dog! I was terrified to leave him and she made me feel so much better about the situation. We were going for a week on vacation and I got many updates and videos. I was honestly scared he wouldn't want to come home lol. That's how amazing she was. I recommend her to everyone. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter”

“Another fantastic weekend for Lyla at Kerri’s house! We’re so appreciative of Kerri and her fantastic pet care when we go out of town, and will continue to use her as long as she’s willing! :)”

“Jamie was wonderful with our dogs while we were visiting the Creation and Ark museum from out of town. She communicated with us before and during our dog's stay. She worked with our drop off and pick up hours, and took great care of our pets. We would absolutely use her again!”

“As always our "go to sitters" for Paisley. Walks, pictures and updates almost every day! She loves going there and we hate when they aren't available as we truly only trust them with our pup!”

“My 8 month old pup, Reggie, stayed with Katie and her doggies for almost 2 weeks and he loved every minute! Made best friends with their young pup and had a constant playmate the entire time. Katie sent daily photos and updates and made me feel so comfortable and reassured that Reggie was being taken care of like he was their own. He eats half dry, half wet food and she had no problem catering to his bougie needs. Thank you Katie! You are amazing and Reggie already misses BM! 100% would recommend Katie!”

“**Review for Jamie:** Jamie was fantastic! She watched our dog Sarge for a full week and did an amazing job. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and messages, which made us feel completely comfortable and at ease while we were away. Sarge clearly had a great time too. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”


“Finn left Holly’s worn out and with a new best friend! Getting pictures of Finn and Millie together made us feel so happy knowing he was having a good time while we were away. We will definitely be using Holly again!”


“Hayley was fantastic! Setting up a meet and greet was incredibly easy, and she was so accommodating and friendly right off the bat. She has a very calm, friendly, and grounding presence that our dog took to immediately. Everything went perfectly while we were away, and she was excellent at communicating, sending photos, and she followed all of our routines perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind to know our Stanley was in such good hands. We would definitely book with Hayley again without hesitation!”

“Bethany is amazing! She does a great job taking care of my dogs making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise with walks and playing in the backyard. I will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Shauna and her family were amazing and really put us at ease on our vacation! She sent updates and pictures. Made drop off and pick up easy. Our dog loves lots of attention and cuddles and I think he loved being there. We will definitely ask her to look after our pup again!”
