Personalized care for your dog or cat - Murdock
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Murdock
“Aurora and her family were great. I received daily photos of my dog when I picked her up. She seemed to be all happy and I could tell that she enjoyed her time there. I highly recommend her for your pet needs.”
“Been booking with Zhou the last 4 times I went on trips. He is an amazing dog sitter and I can always trust him to take care of my dogs. He sends videos and picture updates and they look so happy when boarding with him, when they get home, they’re exhausted from all the playing and walking they get to do. Highly recommend him and will be boarding with him every time I need to board.”
“Sam is so sweet with our dog. Her love for dogs is evident in how accommodating and patient she is with them. We love that she sends frequent updates. She was also understanding and flexible when our travel plans got changed.”
“This is my first time using Roverand and after meeting Dennis and his Wife I knew my adventure buddy was in great hands. I was able to enjoy visit with family and see I wasn't the only one on vacation 😂. Boarding is no longer a stresser, thank you Dennis and bee will be seeing you soon!”
About: From the time I was a little girl growing up in the country, pets and especially dogs have been a part of my life. I’m finally to a point in my life I can expand the love I have for pets and help others at the same time. What a great combo. I have one lab in my home that has my heart and love when other “friends” come over to play. I also understand the anxiety that goes with leaving a pet. Snapping pics and a text can help ease those feelings. And don’t worry, there’s an extra bed for naps and night time if your baby is used to sleeping with someone. The backyard is fenced and a dog door in place. I’ve also had experience with administering medications. I’m newly retired and also have a side gig baking business so I have spare time and availability. My lab is your classic laid back, loves everyone dog. New friends welcome! I have a fenced in yard with a dog door and willing to train if needed. They catch on so quick! My pets are like my kids, they get attention annd we play during the day and then at night, they can sleep where they want. We are still working on training for some fun tricks too. Most of all, make lots of time for pets, belly rubs and talking to each other.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life and I currently have a blue healer and two 5 month old clingy little kittens of my own so I know how to make sure they get the best treatment and top quality attention too! I am currently self employed so i have a ton of free time and love to fill it by being adventurous and trying new things so having an extra little buddy around would fit right into my schedule i have a fenced in yard with a privacy fence and a very friendly blue healer who loves to make new friends, with two kittens who like to keep their distance when it comes to other pets but they also don’t mind dogs or cats
“I really want to appreciate you for sticking by my cats side during their after surgery healing. I feel awful for bee biting. But you stuck by her side afterwards. You communicated so well and the pictures helped giving me some relief.”
“As usual, Muggsy had a wonderful time staying with Naomi. She treats him like her own. She's our go-to sitter from here on out. Thank you, Naomi for always taking excellent care of our pup!”
About: Hi, I'm Renee! I've had dogs for most of my life and love being around them. Big dogs, little dogs, lazy dogs, crazy dogs. They're all fun in their own way. I'm a local mom looking to earn some extra income doing something I actually enjoy. If I'm watching your pet, they're not just getting fed and let outside. I'll spend time with them, play with them, talk to them like they're people, and make sure they're comfortable while you're away. You can also expect lots of photo updates because I know I'd want them too. :) A few things I can help with: - Feeding and fresh water - Walks and exercise - Playtime and companionship - Potty breaks - Basic medication administration when needed - Cleaning up accidents and pet messes - Daily photo and text updates I'm flexible and able to work around your pet's normal routine. Whether your pet needs a morning visit, afternoon walk, evening feeding, or overnight care, I'll do my best to provide consistent care and keep them comfortable while you're away. I understand how important routines can be for pets and will follow your instructions closely. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big decision. I'll treat both with the same care and respect that I would my own. Before any booking, I'd be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet so we can discuss your pet's routine, personality, medications, and any special needs. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I’ve worked in a vet hospital for over 9 years in a wide range of positions/duties. Working with dogs is a pleasure of mine and I know how much more comfortable they can be at home! I work full-time but can make visits at least 3x/day during the week! Of course over the weekends, your babies will get much more attention!! I am open to whatever your pet needs in order to keep them comfortable! This can be discussed as needed. Safety of everyone involved is an utmost priority!
About: I am a professional dog trainer offering dog boarding in my home and dog walking! Everything below is included in one price for your convenience, including pick up and drop off services. Reach out to me about your needs! I look forward to hearing from you! Dog boarding in my home includes: • Walks • Tug play • Fetch • Cuddle time • Treats • Enrichment chews • Photos & updates • Pick up & drop off from your home for your convenience (fee included after 20 miles) For dogs of all ages, energy levels, and sizes! Requirements: • Vaccination proof (rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella) or Titer test • Up to date on Heartworm & Flea+tick prevention • Full disclosure of behavioral, medical, and training issues (so I can provide the best care for your pet) • Crate trained • House trained The dogs are fed twice a day with a third feeding available for puppies and special needs dogs. Depending on your dog’s energy levels and play needs we offer a variety of activities including walks, tug play, fetch, toy enrichment and chew toys. They get as many potty breaks as needed and 1-2 sessions of exercise each day. Training sessions are available for an additional fee when spots are open! This is best for dogs needing better leash and doorway manners, obedience training, car traveling, or confidence building. Dogs are crated at night and when they’re unsupervised. There are no unsupervised dog interactions or loose dogs for safety purposes. We have a fenced yard for potty breaks and playtime and your dogs will be on leash at all times during outings off of our property.
About: My husband and I train field trial dogs, so I have years of experience working with high-drive, well-trained, and sensitive dogs. I’m confident with all skills from training support to medications! I enjoy working with dogs of all types. I offer all Rover services and provide safe, structured, and loving care tailored to your dog’s personality. Your pup will always be treated like family! I have a dog of my own, so pet care is already part of my everyday routine. I’m used to the morning outings, meal times, play breaks, and all the in-between moments that come with having a pup around. Adding another dog into that flow is easy for me, and they just become part of the normal daily rhythm. Your dog will get the same easygoing, loving care I give my own. Whether your pet stays with me or I care for them in your home, I keep their routine consistent, safe, and comfortable. Dogs get plenty of attention, playtime, and a relaxed environment so they feel right at home wherever they are!
“It was such a relief to find Veronica to watch my Buck. She was so great with him and I loved how she sent updates and pictures. You couldn’t find a more loving and compassionate person to watch your fur baby. Thanks again Veronica.”
“Amy was great. I am appreciative of her help and feel that she took care of my dog. She picked up that he is anxious and I don't like leaving him--she sent updates over the weekend. I would gladly use her again, if she would have Gravy!”

About: Hi my name is Elly! I’m a huge dog lover I and have been around pets my whole life. I am majoring in elementary education at Butler with almost all of my classes being online, so I have plenty of time to devote to helping other people with their furry friends :) I’ve been dog sitting family and friends’ dogs for years (now been on Rover about 2 years) and I have two of my own. (both friendly) The dog sitting jobs I have done have included 24 hour care and dosing of medications where needed. I can take up to 2 dogs at night, and 3 during the day. We have a large fenced yard that will provide plenty of room. I do have a part-time job but with a week’s notice can schedule around that. I currently work a part time job, 4 days a week. I am never gone for more than 5 hours, but if a dog needs to go potty during that time, I am able to run home quickly over a lunch break :) I have a large fenced in yard. There is a pool that is covered unless someone is outside to supervise any swimming, and a large basement for dogs to run around in!
“Dustin did an amazing job with my somewhat finicky fur family! I very much appreciated the communication and photos during drop ins, and am so pleased that my critters were so at ease and content with him. Will definitely rebook next time I need a few days away!”
“Alayna was very attentive to my 3 shy cats, they quickly bonded with her while I was gone for over a week. Alayna shared detailed updates and photos, and took care of all their needs and would reach out for any questions. I will definitely book her again on future trips!”
About: I have had pets since I was a young child. I have always been the volunteer to take care of friends and family’s pets whenever they needed care. My family and I do have fur babies of our own and we take training and care seriously. We believe in not only nourishing their bodies, but their minds and spirits as well! Enrichment toys and activities are in abundance. I work from home and have ample time to care for your fur kiddos. We have a large fenced backyard for play, during the summer months we have water activities for the doggos that like to play, if you allow. We play fetch, we have tug toys for the trees, and other outdoor activities with plenty of space for running! While in my care your fur kiddo will be loved and treated like our own. I will be home to tend to their needs, will follow their care plans, and play with them to ensure their time spent in my care is the best! We have a large fenced yard with reinforced bases so they are safe to play to their hearts content!
About: My mom has had a calico for 9 years now that I've helped take care of, I've got a black cat that's a year old now, and before that I took care of a couple tiger striped cats that were so loving that it broke my heart to leave them.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 8, starting from aquatic pets, reptiles, to common furry in-home pets. I bathe, walk, feed, play, monitor, etc. Your fur baby will be in great hands. Flexible, stacked throughout the day 10am - 9pm Scheduled visits fit daily Pet care in time blocks/Pet care around my day Structured daily pet visits I follow each pet’s routine with feeding, fresh water, potty or litter care, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy while providing updates to owners.
About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!
About: I’ve taken care of pets, especially dogs since my parents brought home my first dog when I was a little kid. I’m used to the responsibility of taking care of animals and making sure they are fed, walked and happy. I’ve also walked looked after dogs for relatives and neighbors who were away since I was a kid. I work from home on the weekdays. I work for myself as well and like to take breaks by walking around my neighborhood so it’s easy for me to find time for your pet. I’m available most the weekend as well unless something unexpected comes up. I have a one room apartment near college hill park, it’s an ideal location for dog walking, as it’s a very safe and walkable neighborhood. Being in a small space makes boarding a little difficult (which is why I charge more for it) but it is doable.
About: I love all animals dearly. I have experience in raising dogs from puppies to adults. I believe animals should be loved and treated with respect. That's exactly how I will treat your pet. They will be allowed outside to go to the bathroom at least once every hour to ensure they don't go to the bathroom in the house. If the yard is not fenced, I will take them on multiple micro-walks throughout the day.(I usually walk about a half a mile and then head back but I do this once every hour.) and last but not least, I will make sure your pet has sufficient food and water. I understand it can be scary to trust a stranger with your pets that you love so dearly. I can promise you that with me, your pets are in good, caring hands.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 5 when I fully trained my Cocker Spaniel dog. I potty trained her and taught her to climb stairs when she was only a puppy. After that I learned tricks and educated myself how to feed them correctly. My family and friends trust me their fur babies to bath them and walk them when they don’t have the time. I also clip the nails and play the groomer with small and medium dogs. I enjoy playing with them but I also practice discipline with dogs. I am a freelancer working from home which means I always going to have time to play with your pups! For boarding I am available all week whenever you need. If my availability ever changes you will be notified. I live in an apartment with a green area where dogs can play. I will be moving to base housing soon so they will count with a big yard to run and play. I have a whiny dog to keep your dog company. They are free to spend time on furniture and beds.
About: My experience with cats is not extremely long but pretty decent. A few of my college friends have cats and I have watched their cats for them before. I am well aware of cleaning a litter box, giving medication and also being attentive when the cat needs something.

Our 6 foot privacy fence keeps them safe in our large back yard. We can take them on long walks if they like those. Our lab/boxer mix loves 💕 loves new playmates!

At night we let them roam freely, or occasionally crate the smaller dog. We’d be happy to accommodate your pets medication and exercise needs. If they like company or solitude, we will find them a good spot! Baths and combing are an option too! We will send photos every day, if you’d like. Just bring their food, shampoo, and snuggles, and we will pamper them. We greatly appreciate it when you finalize your booking quickly! We don’t want to miss the opportunity to watch your babies! New note: we currently have two toddlers living in our home. We’d appreciate only pets who will get along well with young children. Thank you! My husband and I are home full time. Our times away from the house are short when we pet sit. Accommodating frequent potty breaks or leg stretches in our large backyard are no problem! For drop in visits, we are happy to water plants, retrieve mail or packages, etc, if requested in advance. Our pets are our family. We love them and usually travel with our own. We talk to them like little people and love their constant companionship. We require all pets to be flea and tick free. Please make sure your babies are on preventative medicine. Please fill out your profile so we can make sure we are a good fit for your needs.

About: I've been taking care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors for years. I grew up around dogs and have yet to meet one that doesn't like me. Through the years, I've taken care of all types of dogs and cats; from young, crazy pups to old, sick dogs and from ornery mostly outdoor cats to snuggly kitties that want to use me as a bed. My other job is remote, so my schedule is very flexible for whatever your pet may need. Weekends or weekdays doesn't make much of a difference. I'm also a morning person, so early morning walks, feedings, etc are perfectly fine! For boarding, I have one pet friendly roommate and dog. The dog is so cat friendly that she annoys some cats by trying to convince them to play. My yard is fenced, but there is currently a damaged section that has been covered with temporary plastic fencing. The damage will be repaired soon and until then, I don't let anyone out there without supervision. For house sitting or drop-ins, I treat your pets the way I would want mine treated. I also try to match any routines your pet might be used to, if it's eating at a certain time or always being let out at a certain time, just let me know and I'll make sure to keep things as familiar as possible for your furry friends.

About: I have had pets since I was a young child. I have always been the volunteer to take care of friends and family’s pets whenever they needed care. My family and I do have fur babies of our own and we take training and care seriously. We believe in not only nourishing their bodies, but their minds and spirits as well! Enrichment toys and activities are in abundance. I work from home and have ample time to care for your fur kiddos. We have a large fenced backyard for play, during the summer months we have water activities for the doggos that like to play, if you allow. We play fetch, we have tug toys for the trees, and other outdoor activities with plenty of space for running! While in my care your fur kiddo will be loved and treated like our own. I will be home to tend to their needs, will follow their care plans, and play with them to ensure their time spent in my care is the best! We have a large fenced yard with reinforced bases so they are safe to play to their hearts content!
About: Hi there! :) My name is Ashley! I have a love and passion for working and caring with animals, especially dogs, and people! A little about me: I am 26. I have two awesome little ones, as well as four furry ones. Our furry kiddos are our two German Shepherds, Riley and Atlas, and our two cats Artemis and Merlin. I have owned and worked with animals since I was a little girl. I was always bringing home animals that I found, wanting to help them find their homes or seeing if we could be their new one. When I was 11, I started babysitting the neighbors and family friends kids and pets. My first dog was named after one of my toy horses as a little girl, named Sand Dune. He was a Labrador and Collie mix. He helped further my love of working with animals and people. My relationship with him was one of the first things that helped steer me towards a career path of veterinary medicine/working extensively with animals. As he got older, he became very sick and we soon learned that he had cancer. I saw how the people in the veterinary field helped him, helped us, what they did and how they did it, all really struck a cord within me. Not long after I changed my school path from human nursing to animal nursing. I started school at PIMA Medical Institute in Colorado Springs, CO. in January 2014. I finished the program in December 2014 with a 3.8 GPA. When I finished school I went to work at an animal hospital in Colorado Springs. Currently I work at home as a Health and Fitness Coach, as well as my work through Rover. In my spare time I love to spend time with my family. We love to do anything outdoors. Regular hikes and trail walks with the kiddos (all 4 of them) are one of our "must-do's"! Indoors we are big PC gamers, and run a D&D campaign at our house on the weekend! I am an artist, and an avid book reader as well. What I Offer: With my schooling, training, and accumulated experience, I'm able to handle various needs that your animal friends may have. If your pup has has any special needs that he/she needs to have met, you can be rest assured that they will be taken care of. I'm able to administer medicine both orally and injected. I understand the necessity and importance for medicine to be administered on time and correctly. I am familiar with specific diets (allergy diets, the RAW diet). I am trained in Animal CPR. I am very flexible with hours, and am available both during the day and at night. When we talk about me coming to visit, we will talk about the needs of your pup , expectations, any questions that you may have to make sure that you are more than comfortable. I have a smart phone, and can be reached at any time. I am more than happy to provide pictures and/or videos, as well as updates, while I am there visiting! I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! <3
About: My pup Woody and I are always looking for new friends! We have a lot of experience with dogs and cats and specialize in socializing, playing, and basic training, puppies and kitties. We know how important it is to provide care, comfort and company to make your family feel like part of our family. I live in Hutchinson and work a flexible job in Lyons which allows me to regularly go visit and take care of your pups and kitties. I am available almost any time with enough notice to help you and your pet live your best lives. I have an incredible pup named Woody who is always looking for new friends and loves to help keep your pets company! We work great together, but I'm also great solo if your fur baby needs more focused attention.
About: I have spent my whole life surrounded by cats and dogs, both my own and others and have an intense passion for caring for animals the right way! I have basic care skills, but can ensure diligence, active and engaging time spent with your animals, timely care, and commitment to following care guidelines to a T. I know what it’s like to leave your animals in the care of someone else. My personal pet sitters are accustomed to abnormally and intensely detailed printed guidelines with care instructions for my animals, so regardless of how detailed your care instructions are, I have the aptitude to follow them in their entirety plus more to the best of my abilities! I am a medical student in my first year, so I do have the ability to have more control of my schedule. I will continually update my time availability to be accurate weekly. I will not commit something that I cannot guarantee availability for! I will only be able to give care in your home due to living in an apartment complex and having animals of my own. But in caring for my own animals, I am quite neurotic in how detailed and specifically I care for them. I make sure my animals have daily mental and exercise stimulation through playing with toys, walking, and engagement with me and each other. I am adamant about giving my animals affection, and provide them meals in a timely and measured way. I brush all of my animals teeth daily, walk my dogs daily, and clean my cats litter box at least twice a day. I am very attuned to subtleties and changes in my animals behavior to ensure that they are in good health! I want to give my animals the best life and care possible just as I will do for your animals!
About: I love all animals dearly. I have experience in raising dogs from puppies to adults. I believe animals should be loved and treated with respect. That's exactly how I will treat your pet. They will be allowed outside to go to the bathroom at least once every hour to ensure they don't go to the bathroom in the house. If the yard is not fenced, I will take them on multiple micro-walks throughout the day.(I usually walk about a half a mile and then head back but I do this once every hour.) and last but not least, I will make sure your pet has sufficient food and water. I understand it can be scary to trust a stranger with your pets that you love so dearly. I can promise you that with me, your pets are in good, caring hands.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 8, starting from aquatic pets, reptiles, to common furry in-home pets. I bathe, walk, feed, play, monitor, etc. Your fur baby will be in great hands. Flexible, stacked throughout the day 10am - 9pm Scheduled visits fit daily Pet care in time blocks/Pet care around my day Structured daily pet visits I follow each pet’s routine with feeding, fresh water, potty or litter care, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy while providing updates to owners.
About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!
About: Since 2018, I’ve been the go-to Rover sitter for pet parents who want peace of mind and pups who want nonstop love and attention. 🐶 I don’t just ‘watch’ dogs. I keep them safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own.” I trust dogs more than I trust most humans, which makes this more than just a side gig for me. Caring for your pups is something I genuinely enjoy. Why choose me? • 🛡️ Safety first: Your dog’s wellbeing is always my #1 priority (and mine too, because let’s be honest, no one wants a Rottweiler deciding I look like a chew toy). • 🏃♀️ Active & alert: I’m quick on my feet, tuned in, and ready to spring into action if a situation gets “ruff.” • 🧠 Dog smarts + intuition: I have a natural ability to read dogs’ body language and moods, whether I’m meeting a nervous Chihuahua or a 120 pound gentle giant. • 📸 Peace of mind updates: Expect photos, videos, and proof of tail wags so you feel like you never left. Over the years, every dog I’ve cared for has left a paw print on my heart (and sometimes a little slobber on my shirt). Big or small, shy or spunky … I’ve worked with them all, and I strive to make every pup feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. If you want a sitter who will love your dog like family, treat safety like sacred ground, and sprinkle in a little humor along the way, I’m your person. 🐾 Taking care of dogs isn’t a side gig for me . Definitely a lifestyle. I already have my own little wolfpack, so loving, protecting, and spoiling pups is second nature. When your K9 is with me, they’re not just “watched”… they’re family. Think of it as a WIN/WIN: your dog gets unconditional love and adventure, and you get peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and thriving. I can’t wait to meet your best friend (and claim them as my new sidekick).
About: I’ve taken care of pets, especially dogs since my parents brought home my first dog when I was a little kid. I’m used to the responsibility of taking care of animals and making sure they are fed, walked and happy. I’ve also walked looked after dogs for relatives and neighbors who were away since I was a kid. I work from home on the weekdays. I work for myself as well and like to take breaks by walking around my neighborhood so it’s easy for me to find time for your pet. I’m available most the weekend as well unless something unexpected comes up. I have a one room apartment near college hill park, it’s an ideal location for dog walking, as it’s a very safe and walkable neighborhood. Being in a small space makes boarding a little difficult (which is why I charge more for it) but it is doable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 5 when I fully trained my Cocker Spaniel dog. I potty trained her and taught her to climb stairs when she was only a puppy. After that I learned tricks and educated myself how to feed them correctly. My family and friends trust me their fur babies to bath them and walk them when they don’t have the time. I also clip the nails and play the groomer with small and medium dogs. I enjoy playing with them but I also practice discipline with dogs. I am a freelancer working from home which means I always going to have time to play with your pups! For boarding I am available all week whenever you need. If my availability ever changes you will be notified. I live in an apartment with a green area where dogs can play. I will be moving to base housing soon so they will count with a big yard to run and play. I have a whiny dog to keep your dog company. They are free to spend time on furniture and beds.
“With my schedule being busy my foster pup needed someone to take him out in some adventures. He loves walks so wanted to try a dog walker. Bruce did great with Essence and really enjoyed going for a walk with her. Definitely going to continue booking Bruce to help get his exercise. Recommend Essence for sure! She did amazing with Bruce! She kept us updated and she took pictures of him! Thank you so much!!!”

“Aurora and her family were great. I received daily photos of my dog when I picked her up. She seemed to be all happy and I could tell that she enjoyed her time there. I highly recommend her for your pet needs.”
“Been booking with Zhou the last 4 times I went on trips. He is an amazing dog sitter and I can always trust him to take care of my dogs. He sends videos and picture updates and they look so happy when boarding with him, when they get home, they’re exhausted from all the playing and walking they get to do. Highly recommend him and will be boarding with him every time I need to board.”
“Sam is so sweet with our dog. Her love for dogs is evident in how accommodating and patient she is with them. We love that she sends frequent updates. She was also understanding and flexible when our travel plans got changed.”
“This is my first time using Roverand and after meeting Dennis and his Wife I knew my adventure buddy was in great hands. I was able to enjoy visit with family and see I wasn't the only one on vacation 😂. Boarding is no longer a stresser, thank you Dennis and bee will be seeing you soon!”
About: From the time I was a little girl growing up in the country, pets and especially dogs have been a part of my life. I’m finally to a point in my life I can expand the love I have for pets and help others at the same time. What a great combo. I have one lab in my home that has my heart and love when other “friends” come over to play. I also understand the anxiety that goes with leaving a pet. Snapping pics and a text can help ease those feelings. And don’t worry, there’s an extra bed for naps and night time if your baby is used to sleeping with someone. The backyard is fenced and a dog door in place. I’ve also had experience with administering medications. I’m newly retired and also have a side gig baking business so I have spare time and availability. My lab is your classic laid back, loves everyone dog. New friends welcome! I have a fenced in yard with a dog door and willing to train if needed. They catch on so quick! My pets are like my kids, they get attention annd we play during the day and then at night, they can sleep where they want. We are still working on training for some fun tricks too. Most of all, make lots of time for pets, belly rubs and talking to each other.
“I really want to appreciate you for sticking by my cats side during their after surgery healing. I feel awful for bee biting. But you stuck by her side afterwards. You communicated so well and the pictures helped giving me some relief.”
“As usual, Muggsy had a wonderful time staying with Naomi. She treats him like her own. She's our go-to sitter from here on out. Thank you, Naomi for always taking excellent care of our pup!”

I am open to whatever your pet needs in order to keep them comfortable! This can be discussed as needed. Safety of everyone involved is an utmost priority!

“It was such a relief to find Veronica to watch my Buck. She was so great with him and I loved how she sent updates and pictures. You couldn’t find a more loving and compassionate person to watch your fur baby. Thanks again Veronica.”
