“Truly an awesome experience! I can’t thank Megan and super sweet family enough for welcoming my high anxiety girl into their home and loving on her as if she was their own. I could tell by the updates and pictures that Megan sent daily that Rosie was happy and enjoying her stay, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to throughly enjoy my vacation. I have no doubt Rosie will miss playing with the kiddos and family pets, but not for long since we’re already planning another stay in just a few weeks!”
“Elizabeth and Christopher were great with our dog Bailey. I got a good feeling about them and their home as soon as I dropped Bailey off. They sent pictures and updates and Bailey was well taken care of. Would definitely use them again if available x”
“Erin was great! She was incredibly responsive and made me feel at ease while I was away. I loved getting daily updates and pictures. She clearly took great care of my pet and treated them like her own. I would highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“My second time using Nicole to board my dog. I love that my dog has her dogs to play and a huge backyard to run around. Good family, nice people, and my dog gets lots of hugs from her kiddos. Highly recommend.”
“We were so happy Michele was able to watch our pups again! Our dogs get along so well with hers! We know they had a great time staying with Michele because our dogs slept all day after we picked them up and were still even tired the next day! Michele will always be our go-to!”
“Steve could not have been more timely with responses during the interview process and throughout our stay in Kansas. He willingly accommodated our requests for drop-off and pick-up time changes for Barkley. Every night we picked up a happy and exhausted dog...one who went immediately to sleep. Steve proved to be trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely kind to dogs, cats and babies. We certainly recommend Steve and will definitely be using his services again, when in Lawrence, KS.”
“Carissa took great care of my Nala. Nala hurt her leg a few days before we were going out of town and Carissa was very willing to give her the extra attention she needed! She will definitely be hangout out with Carissa again!!”
“This was our first time using Rover.com and boy did we hit the Jackpot finding Mo and Kevin! From the minute we met Mo and Kevin, I felt so good about leaving our Ginger girl! I knew she was going to be loved on while we were away. We received pictures and videos everyday of Ginger having so much fun with the other pups. I’m sure she’ll miss Mo, her family and her new friends. Thank you so much for loving on our girl! Can’t imagine a better experience for Ginger!”
“Our dog seemed very happy and comfortable staying with Lauren, and we had a great experience with her! She was very quick to respond and set up a meet and greet, and she sent wonderful updates each day so we knew how things were going. We forgot to bring our dog's bed, but Lauren was kind enough to let Millie use one of the dog beds at her home. It made me feel good knowing how well Millie was getting along at her house, especially hearing about the friendship she developed with one of Lauren's dogs. We would gladly board our dog with Lauren again in the future!”
“Karrie was fantastic! She was so accommodating and let us meet her before our trip. She sent us so many updates and I absolutely trust her with my dog. We’ll absolutely be requesting her in the future.”
“Kasey was a blessing to an overprotective dog dad on short notice. Very communicative and informative throughout the boarding process and caters her service to your dog’s needs. Highly recommend her services to anyone or anyone’s dog who has seperation anxiety.”
“I am deeply grateful to Nate for the exceptional care he provided to our pet Bjorn. He is also very flexible with timings. Bjorn always enjoys spending time at his home.”
“She had him play with her dog every day, plenty of outside time, sent pics and videos and was more than generous and helpful with scheduling and dropping off/picking up”
“Angela was absolutely wonderful! She’s very easy to work with and was willing to let me extend his stay when my flight was delayed. She has a plethora of fun friends that he could play and cuddle with. I only had to bring Ham and his food as she took care of the rest; she ate even wrestled him in his carrier so all I had to do at pick up was scoop him into the car. She’s my go to now for sure!”
“Since Griffin works from home he was able to provide our pup with the human company he is used to at home. This was important for me. Griffin’s little dog was happy to share space with ours. Easy access to play in the fenced in backyard was especially nice on sunny days. Willy was well-cared for during his stay in Griffin’s home.”
“Petra was a phenomenal sitter for our dogs. She was very communicative and friendly when setting up boarding. She sent photos each day and her property was great for two herding dogs to run around off leash. Perhaps most importantly, our dogs took to her right away since she treated them like her own. Petra is a warm and caring person and I give her my highest recommendation!”
“My 10 year old labradoodle has never been away from my wife and I for more than 2-3 days. The first day we met Gina he was immediately comfortable with her and the house. We took a 5 day trip to Disney and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog. She kept us updated everyday with videos and pictures of how he was doing and acclimating with the other dogs. Thank you Gina for making our trip stress free knowing our doodle was cared for and in great hands!”
“Susan and her family were great with our doggo. Coordinating his stay was easy and we appreciated the meet & greet before booking. During his stay, Susan sent lots of pix and updates, giving us a lot of peace of mind. Our pup’s translation back home was very smooth, which told us he wasn’t stressed while we were away, and that is what every pet owner hopes for. We’ll definitely reach out again if we need a dog sitter in the future.”

“Michele took great care of our cat Veronica. Our shy kitty even came out long enough for Michele to take a photo, which is a first in all of our Rover visits! Thanks for everything Michele!”
“Shanelle took great care of our kitty while we were gone for a few days! She made sure to keep his litter box clean and food and water full while we were away. She also made sure to give him lots of love and playtime. We really appreciated the updates and pictures we got each day. It was also nice that we got to meet her ahead of time. Highly recommend!”
About: I've had my three cats since January of 2021. I fell in love with them while fostering and haven't looked back since. My love for them has taught me to love and care for all cats including calling myself an aunt to my friends cats. I'm their first call when it comes to taking care of their feline kids while they're away. I've taken care of up to three different cats in the same week while my friends and co workers were out of town and am always happy to do so.
“Savannah - you’re the best! Thank you! Thanks for taking such good care of my kitties not just during any normal time, but during thanksgiving of all days! That really means a lot to me.. from the photos I got to you taking the time to see them and give them some attention.. I really appreciate it.. thank you again ❤️”
About: Growing up I was never without a pet. We always had cats and dogs. I have helped care for pets since I was a little girl and often watched animals for family friends. I had my very first dog at 18 who turned out to be deaf. Taking care of him was not easy but so worth all the love we shared. Sadly he passed away from Cancer in 2013. I live a few blocks from the Eudora Elementary school and love walking the trail that goes behind it. I find joy in watching my own animals run and play. I treat all animals as if they were my own children. I currently work through the week but I am looking to grow my clients through Rover so I may watch animals full time as I absolutely love them! Right now I am available in the early afternoon/evening and most weekends to do check-ins. I currently work from home and can do doggy day care or boarding through the week and your pet will not be left alone. I hope to be able to watch animals full time eventually. I am married and have a 7 year old son. My husband and son share in my love for animals. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs who are super spoiled just like our son. We love to play and cuddle as a family. Our favorite is to cuddle up on the couch with our fur babies and watch a movie. In the client's home I will respect specific requests and respect your home as if it were my own. I can assure a safe, loving, and loyal friend to walk/care your animal. I will gladly take and send picture updates while with your pet to help ensure your pets safety. I'm also happy to help with an special accommodations your pet needs.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a very little girl. I love all types of animals and my children and I would do anything to provide for any animal. I am a busy mom with a full time job, that being said us moms have super powers so I can make pretty much anything fit into my schedule. The workweek I would be available for early mornings and evenings but the weekends are open and flexible. I have a big backyard and a lovable shitzu and lab to keep your animal company. I enjoy taking walks and getting exercise and playing inside or outside.
“Michelle did a great job giving my cats eyedrops and an inhaler as they have developed new medical conditions. She has the animal knowledge (and heart) to be creative when convincing them to take their medicine. I love having my cats spoiled by her”
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 18 years old and have been passionate about animals my entire life. Growing up with both dogs and cats, and currently owning four dogs of my own, I’ve developed a strong understanding of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I currently work at a local dog daycare in Lawrence, where I care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes supervising group play, feeding, administering medications, monitoring behavior, and providing individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra attention, I’m confident in providing safe, compassionate care tailored to their needs. I’m also an experienced cat caregiver and understand that every cat has a unique personality. From social and affectionate cats to more independent or timid ones, I take the time to help each pet feel comfortable and secure. I recently graduated high school and will be attending JCCC this fall to pursue a pre-veterinary track. My goal is to build a lifelong career working with animals, and I genuinely love every opportunity to care for them. My boyfriend, Cameron, accompanies me during pet-sitting visits. If you would prefer that I come alone, just let me know. You’re always welcome to meet both of us beforehand so you can feel completely comfortable. When caring for your pets, I treat them as if they were my own. Their safety, comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities, and I’ll make sure you receive regular updates while you’re away.
“Sierra was absolutely fantastic! Our two kitties seemed to love her and were very well cared for. Each visit she sent us a very detailed report and LOTS of pictures, which we loved!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, pot belly pigs, and rabbits professionally over the summers during undergrad. I have walked, played, fed, medicated, cleaned up after, and cared for in whatever way owners have needed and preferred. I am very flexible to your specific requests and understand that pets are family. Currently, I am working part-time with a very flexible schedule. I can make any day or night of the week work with notice, and I usually can make it work without warning. I won't watch pets in my home as I do not currently have a fenced-in yard, however, I am happy to take them on walks and watch them from their homes. I respect your privacy and prioritize the comfort of your pet.
“I have been so grateful to have Amelia check in on my cats, three separate times now. She is so reliable, prompt to reply and I will continue to utilize her services as long as I can! She is a lifesaver, every single time!”
“Terra was amazing! We found her on Rover somewhat last minute after some issues with our other sitter, and I am so glad we did! Terra was so flexible when we had to make some last minute changes to her care schedule due to our kitty, Nickel, coming down with a UTI the morning we were leaving for vacation. Terra proceeded to take such great care of Nickel. She kept us regularly updated about how Nickel was doing, and sent pictures, which were so comforting to see. Nickel was not so sure about taking his meds from a new person, but Terra did a great job working with him and trying different strategies to help him. All-in-all, Terra went above and beyond in so many ways, and we feel so fortunate that our little guy was in her care. We definitely highly recommend, Terra!”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 13 and house sat since I was 15!! I was also a kennel tech for a year! This included giving medication, bathing, feeding, and just plain old watching the pets! I know CPR for our fury friends too! I have two dogs of my own as well as four cats so I am completely comfortable with a variety. I am a college student working on my masters online while working another job as well. My schedule is pretty straight forward for me so pet care will fit well as long as I keep my calendar balanced. I am comfortable house sitting for both dogs and cats. I am more than capable of crating or letting pets out to potty. I usually keep treats on me anytime I care for a furry friend. When I walk animals, I usually go for 30 minutes to an hour so that they get the excercise needed. I also have bags for when they do their business on a walk.
About: I’ve grown up with pets of all kinds. I love to nuture and care for people & animals. I’m new to Kansas, and would love to spend some time with furry friends as I settle in. My schedule is wide open and very flexible until nursing school starts in late August. I currently do not have a job because I will be a full time student come August, so I am very available! I have 5+ years of pet sitting experience. I am confident and trustworthy when it comes to providing care for animals. I am willing to follow any instructions given to provide the best care for your furry baby!
“Lauren was great at taking pictures and updating us on little details of how our dog was. She spent time with her and did an amazing job. I will use her in the future!!”

About: I grew up on the family farm surrounded by dogs and cats and all kinds of animals - caring for them was part of my life. That lifelong connection led me to volunteer at a local dog and cat shelter where I've gained even more experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I treat every animal like a family and I willl give your pet loving care whether it's for a quick walk or an overnight stay. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fully prioritize pet care. My days naturally revolve around the animals I am caring for and I enjoy creating routine that suits their needs. My home, farm in the woods, is a dog paradise where they can relax, go for walks or play. In client's home, I'm respectful of their space and routines, I communicate with the owner, send updates and make sure the pet has all my attention.
“Savannah took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town! Skip stayed with her for a week and was in heaven getting to play with her dog, getting walks, and lots of attention while we were away! She sent me pictures and report cards daily and we were able to enjoy our vacation much more knowing that he was enjoying his time away as well!”
About: Located just 10 minutes west of the Legends of Kansas City, your fur-baby will get the TLC that you’d provide in your own home. Plenty of attention and room to run! I currently work some evenings and weekends in order to homeschool during the day so we are home often. I will be clear about availability during bookings. My family is fur-baby friendly with 4 goats, a flock of chickens, two sweet puppies, and a cat currently. During bookings my two dogs (one is an outdoor farm dog) and cat will be kept separate to ensure the safety and comfort of all. Any medical, training, attention, and care needs will be accommodated as requested by the owner.
“Lauren really loves animals and it shows. I’ve never met anyone so kind and caring with their pets. This is the best pet sitting experience I’ve ever had by far and my dog seemed really happy. I’ll be using Lauren exclusively from now on. Thank you so much Lauren 🩷”
“Jamie was prompt in her response to my initial inquiry and we were able to set up a meet and greet right away. Her home is lovely, clean, and has a fenced in backyard. She spoke so highly of my puppy and it really made me feel like she cared about her. She spent time training her every day and adhered to the schedule I provided for structure. She set up play dates to socialize my puppy as she doesn’t have any pets in her home. She went above and beyond training on concepts I hadn’t introduced to my puppy yet. She was thorough in our initial meet and even recapped with me at the end of the week. Her daily recaps shared so much info about my puppies day and I loved hearing about everything they did together and how much she enjoyed her time with my puppy. Jamie is a stellar caregiver, accommodating of my schedule, loving towards my puppy, and great with communication.”
About: I have had dogs in my home for almost my whole life. I have a pug, golden retriever, and a mutt that are all a couple years apart in age. For two years, I volunteered at a humane society where I walked and cared for dogs of all kinds. Senior, puppy, sick, I have a lot of experience and I would love to get more! I’m currently working at a golf course near Forest Lake. My schedule for work comes out weekly, so I’m unaware what my weeks look like well in advance. I don’t like to do this, but if your pups are able to be home for about 6-8, then this would be a great fit! Obviously I wouldn’t work every day of the week, so I will be available to give them my full attention. Your pups are my priority and I wouldn’t want them to feel uncomfortable with my wack work schedule in any way. My shifts will either be 6-2 or 2-9, or shorter. I prioritize respect for your space and routines. Whether your pet prefers potty breaks in a fenced yard or leashed walks, I’ll follow your preferences to keep them comfortable and safe.
“Josh was very flexible, attentive, and caring for our pup! He sent us lots of updates and my dog came home every day exercised, socialized and happy! Would definitely recommend!!”
“Regan was amazing with my puppy. She sent me multiple updates throughout the days, fed my dog, took her potty, played, etc.. while I was at work. I plan on using her again :)”
“Amma was awesome! Her pictures were amazing and she kept me up to date on how Luna was doing with the pack during the daycare. I highly recommend Anna for anyone who is looking for someone to look after their pup!”
“Romeo was so well taken care of by Gina! He had so much fun with the other dogs. Gina communicated well and sent lots of updates which I appreciate! We will definitely be using Gina again :)”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, took care of them and have a great passion for animals. I’ve had my own pets since 2007 (2 cats and a dog). Since 2020 I have fostered animals for a local shelter including dogs, puppies as young as 6 months, and kittens as young as 5 weeks. I have basic experience in dog training. I’m currently working on a part-time contract basis so my schedule is very flexible and I would love to help you care for your pet(s). I am available daily with a set schedule to accommodate your needs. I am an experienced foster of dogs and kittens. I have a dedicated space (spare bedroom) to keep any animals separate from mine, but if they are dog and cat friendly they could be free roaming in the house when I am home. I have a cable for supervised potty time in the yard. I am experienced with crate training. I am clean and professional, respecting your space and routines in your home.
About: I have worked with and had animals my entire life. From reptiles to cats and dogs I have worked with many different kinds of animals old and young. I adore training puppies and have had a lot of experience with senior dogs, dogs with incontinence, and other health issues. Your pets safety and well being is of upmost importance to me. My current work schedule is 6am-2pm Mon-Fri with a short break around 9am where I have time to run home and let my dog out. Your pets safety and well being is my main priority. I try to stick to a strict schedule of feeding times and walkies. I have a spacious home with a fenced in back yard. I have a kennel that can be put up for any pups that require a kennel as well as a spare room that can be a safe space for any animal that doesn’t care to socialize with the rest of my animals.
“Our dog took to Cristina, and it made me feel at ease the way Cristina interacted with our dog. She was personable, and my dog came home tired from her stay, which is a good thing for us. We would absolutely use Cristina again!”
“Beth was amazing! We met beforehand to make sure our pups got along and she was so kind and accommodating! She sent pictures to keep me updated and filled out the Rover cards everyday to let me know how it went! Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I am the perfect boarding option if you're looking to get away. I’m currently working a hybrid arrangement so I am home Mondays and Fridays. We’re typically here most weekends but do go out of town every now and then, so just keep an eye on my calendar and I will do my best to keep it updated. I have been around dogs my entire life and can't imagine my life without one (or two)! They are an extension of my family and are treated as such. Rest-assured, your dogs will be loved here and get to play with our 12 year old Terrier and our 7 year old Austrian Pinscher. We have a large fenced yard and LOTS of toys and nearby trails where I'll take our dogs and yours for walks several times a day. I do allow pets on furniture and to sleep in our bed if that's what they're used to. If your dog plays well with others they will fit in perfectly here! I’m currently working from home 2 days a week so typically always home during those days to care for your pups! They will get lots of outdoor breaks and at least one walk while I’m home. We treat your dog(s) like our own. They’re allowed on our furniture and can sleep in it beds if that’s what they’re used to.

About: I have owned pets all my life from dogs and cats to ferrets and lizards. I am currently studying animal science in pursue of a degree in veterinary medicine. I have trained puppies and volunteered at shelters so I have been exposed to lots of different dog breeds. Last summer I worked side by side with a Vet and gained lots of experience with many animals. My schedule is very flexible considering I am a college student and only work when I am home on breaks. I am working at a vet clinic and getting experience in that field. I am also available on weekends and capable of working with you to put the needs of your pet first. My dogs have a fenced in yard so during this time of year they spend a lot of time outside and playing fetch. We have crate trained them as puppies so I can accommodate to any means necessary.

And the best way I thought I would enjoy my time alone is taking/caring for pets. I love walks and can come and let them out to play and feed them As well. Message me for any additional questions. My husband has weird hours, but has a consistent schedule. We can set up a schedule that works best for both of us. I look forward to taking care of your pets!

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 18 years old and have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats, and I currently have four dogs of my own, so I’ve always been surrounded by animals. I work at a dog daycare in Lawrence, where I care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I supervise playgroups, feed dogs, give medications when needed, and make sure they’re safe and having a good time. Working there has given me experience with all kinds of dogs and taught me how important it is to pay attention to each pet’s individual needs. I’m also experienced with cats and am happy to care for both friendly, outgoing cats and the more shy, independent ones. I recently graduated from high school and will be starting my pre-veterinary studies at JCCC this fall. My dream is to become a veterinarian! My boyfriend, Cameron, is 20 and helps me with pet sitting. He loves animals just as much as I do and has plenty of experience with them. He helped train our German Shepherd from puppyhood and grew up with several cats, so he’s comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I just like to let everyone know that Cameron may accompany me on visits or overnight stays. We both genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and we’ll make sure your pets are loved and well cared for while you’re away. I work Tuesday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, but I’m available before work, during my breaks, and after work. So I am able to check your pets every 4-5 hours. I also have full availability on weekends and Mondays. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, and I do my best to be flexible to meet your pet’s needs. When I’m caring for your pet in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. Whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pets! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet.

Whether it’s walking the dog early in the morning, playing with them in the afternoon, or feeding them at night, I’m always flexible and ready to adjust. I always do exactly what my clients ask me to do, whether it’s about feeding their pet on time, giving them medicine, or teaching them good behavior. I know how important it is to keep things consistent for pets, so I try to make their routine as comfortable and familiar as possible.

About: 🐾 About Me: Hi there! I’m passionate about pets and have been taking care of dogs since I was just 7 years old.

Each dog has taught me something unique, and I cherish the bond we have/created. ❤️ Fostering Experience: I’ve also had the rewarding experience of being a foster mom for a dog rescue. Caring for these wonderful animals has been immensely fulfilling, and I loved being able to help them transition to their forever homes. My heart is always open to providing a safe and loving environment. 🐶 What I Offer: Playtime & Exercise:** I believe every dog deserves to have fun!

About: I have always been known to my parents friends and neighbors and the person to call if you need help watching your animal. I’ve been pet sitting dogs specifically for just over 4 years but before that I watched everything from cats, to fish, and hamsters. I’ve dealt with numerous dogs suffering from seizures along with many recovering from surgery’s so I know how to handle almost everything. I’m currently a college student. I have some Morning commitments however I can be home with your pet for most of the day, or stop by at any point during the day to walk or let them out. I have an english golden retriever myself so there is another dog within my house, however he’s very friendly with other dogs. We don’t use a crate in our house and the dogs are allowed on the furniture but I’m happy to follow whatever you prefer for your own animal.
About: Allow me to give your pets the same love and affection that I always give my own! I currently live with my husband, our 3 cats, and 1 dog. I lived out in the country growing up and over the years I have taken care of dozens of cats, dogs, horses, cows, and many other animals. I am looking to earn extra income to help my husband and I save up for a house. Please and thank you all for looking! I really look forward to caring for your furry family members! For the summer, I am available throughout the week and occasional weekends, during daylight hours! For any walks though, I would prefer mornings/evenings to protect your fur baby's feet and my pale skin from the harsh sun/temps! I always provide the upmost respect to pets, their owners, and whatever space we might be in. I am very detail oriented so rule following is an absolute MUST for me.

“Truly an awesome experience! I can’t thank Megan and super sweet family enough for welcoming my high anxiety girl into their home and loving on her as if she was their own. I could tell by the updates and pictures that Megan sent daily that Rosie was happy and enjoying her stay, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to throughly enjoy my vacation. I have no doubt Rosie will miss playing with the kiddos and family pets, but not for long since we’re already planning another stay in just a few weeks!”
“Elizabeth and Christopher were great with our dog Bailey. I got a good feeling about them and their home as soon as I dropped Bailey off. They sent pictures and updates and Bailey was well taken care of. Would definitely use them again if available x”
“Erin was great! She was incredibly responsive and made me feel at ease while I was away. I loved getting daily updates and pictures. She clearly took great care of my pet and treated them like her own. I would highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“My second time using Nicole to board my dog. I love that my dog has her dogs to play and a huge backyard to run around. Good family, nice people, and my dog gets lots of hugs from her kiddos. Highly recommend.”
“We were so happy Michele was able to watch our pups again! Our dogs get along so well with hers! We know they had a great time staying with Michele because our dogs slept all day after we picked them up and were still even tired the next day! Michele will always be our go-to!”
“Steve could not have been more timely with responses during the interview process and throughout our stay in Kansas. He willingly accommodated our requests for drop-off and pick-up time changes for Barkley. Every night we picked up a happy and exhausted dog...one who went immediately to sleep. Steve proved to be trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely kind to dogs, cats and babies. We certainly recommend Steve and will definitely be using his services again, when in Lawrence, KS.”
“Carissa took great care of my Nala. Nala hurt her leg a few days before we were going out of town and Carissa was very willing to give her the extra attention she needed! She will definitely be hangout out with Carissa again!!”
“Our dog seemed very happy and comfortable staying with Lauren, and we had a great experience with her! She was very quick to respond and set up a meet and greet, and she sent wonderful updates each day so we knew how things were going. We forgot to bring our dog's bed, but Lauren was kind enough to let Millie use one of the dog beds at her home. It made me feel good knowing how well Millie was getting along at her house, especially hearing about the friendship she developed with one of Lauren's dogs. We would gladly board our dog with Lauren again in the future!”
“Kasey was a blessing to an overprotective dog dad on short notice. Very communicative and informative throughout the boarding process and caters her service to your dog’s needs. Highly recommend her services to anyone or anyone’s dog who has seperation anxiety.”
“I am deeply grateful to Nate for the exceptional care he provided to our pet Bjorn. He is also very flexible with timings. Bjorn always enjoys spending time at his home.”
“She had him play with her dog every day, plenty of outside time, sent pics and videos and was more than generous and helpful with scheduling and dropping off/picking up”
“Petra was a phenomenal sitter for our dogs. She was very communicative and friendly when setting up boarding. She sent photos each day and her property was great for two herding dogs to run around off leash. Perhaps most importantly, our dogs took to her right away since she treated them like her own. Petra is a warm and caring person and I give her my highest recommendation!”
“My 10 year old labradoodle has never been away from my wife and I for more than 2-3 days. The first day we met Gina he was immediately comfortable with her and the house. We took a 5 day trip to Disney and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog. She kept us updated everyday with videos and pictures of how he was doing and acclimating with the other dogs. Thank you Gina for making our trip stress free knowing our doodle was cared for and in great hands!”
“Susan and her family were great with our doggo. Coordinating his stay was easy and we appreciated the meet & greet before booking. During his stay, Susan sent lots of pix and updates, giving us a lot of peace of mind. Our pup’s translation back home was very smooth, which told us he wasn’t stressed while we were away, and that is what every pet owner hopes for. We’ll definitely reach out again if we need a dog sitter in the future.”
“We just got back from our trip and our little babies were so happy. Daniel and Carolyn are amazing. They provided constant updates and took amazing care of our fur babies. I will be coming back to them and I highly recommend them. They are quite simply the BEST.”
“Brittany was absolutely wonderful. She truly made my first experience with using Rover a pleasant one and provided great updates and pictures of my sweet pup! The meet and greet was such a great idea to help familiarize my dog with their home before his stay. She took the time to get to know me and my pup, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Brittany!!!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a very little girl. I love all types of animals and my children and I would do anything to provide for any animal. I am a busy mom with a full time job, that being said us moms have super powers so I can make pretty much anything fit into my schedule. The workweek I would be available for early mornings and evenings but the weekends are open and flexible. I have a big backyard and a lovable shitzu and lab to keep your animal company. I enjoy taking walks and getting exercise and playing inside or outside.
