“They took amazing care of my fur baby! Carolyn was incredibly thoughtful and went above and beyond to keep us connected to our pet while we were away from him. They treated him like family which meant the world to us. We will definitely request them to care for our baby again next time we need a sitter! 100% recommended!!”
“We had an amazing experience with Nicole and her family. She was so responsive, flexible, and communicative through the whole process. She has an amazing back yard with plenty of room for the dogs to run around. We received updates and pictures throughout our dogs’ stay, and it was clear they were completely loved on by her and her family!”
“New to Rover, Steve was at the top of the search list and surely Tako and I experienced why. He was great, he has a way with dogs and absolutely loves them! Very chill, laid back, and accommodated very well to my requests or changes. He is very responsive, updates on how Tako is doing, and detailed Tako’s visit at the end. The added bonus is that all I had to provide for Tako for his stay was a bowl and food, Steve took care of the rest! Tako was in very good hands, allowing me to enjoy my trip with no worries about my furry son. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else and will be asking Steve to dogsit Tako in the future!”
“We absolutely loved Alyssa!!! She watched our very anxious pup over an extended 4th of July weekend and she was amazing 🤩. We received regular updates and fun photos. I could tell she was getting the lovings she would normally receive at home and that it’s important for us in a sitter. We usually have to medicate our pup due to fireworks and she was able to keep her clam without the meds which was fabulous! I could tell Gigi was sad to go, but rest assured we will definitely be returning customers 🐶❤️.”
“Erin was absolutely amazing at caring for our dog while we were away. She and her husband showed him so love, treated our dog just like he was part of their family. She sent multiple pictures/videos each day. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Elizabeth and Chris were great! We left our 7 month old puppy for the first time for a family trip and she had a blast. Pictures from Elizabeth showed how much fun our pup had doggy ‘summer camp’”
“We can’t recommend Colter enough! He took wonderful care of our Corgi Saffron for two stays recently. One overnight and one 6 night stay. He communicates promptly and his home has been very clean each time we’ve been there. Saffron had never been anywhere overnight and she was excited to see him when we took her the second time and we’ve already booked another stay with him. His dog Rumi is very calm and sweet.”
“Jillian was absolutely amazing with our baby, Scooby! She took wonderful care of him and provided updates and pictures! Scooby definitely enjoyed his "vacation" with Jillian and I will DEFINITELY book services with her again! This was the first time he has been away from us overnight and we were a little worried, but the updates she provided, we felt very reassured that he was in the best hands! Thank you Jillian!”
“We’ve had a very positive experience with Mo since we connected with her a few months ago. I love the daily photos and videos of our dog Ruger. He seems to really enjoy it there and is always tuckered out the next day we pick him up because he gets plenty of exercise and playtime with the other dogs! The huge back yard is plenty of space for all the dogs to play and run around. We will continue to use her services!”
“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.”
“Daniel did an absolutely fantastic job watching my two dogs Quinn (a senior dog) and Phineas (a puppy). He provided the perfect amount of communication and sent some really great pictures while we were away. I was thoroughly impressed by his level of care and would love to book with him again. Highly recommend!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Elizabeth. I used to feel anxious when I left Lily (King Charles Cavalier) or tried to board her at a kennel. I now can enjoy a short trip and not worry when she is in Elizabeth’s care. Elizabeth and her pup, Louie treat Lily as if she is part of their family. I love that! I also like that she only takes 2 pets at a time.”
“Angie C is the best. She gave my Bailey the best experience for her first time away from home and me. Angie and her family gave her so much love that Bailey cried when it was time to leave. Angie sent me pictures everyday, even gave her a bath and took her for walks. I recommend her 100%.She was amazing!”
“We were in town with our pup for a few days and were looking to get out for a day and were able to get a last minute booking with Griffin to dog sit and he was terrific with our Milo. He sent us frequent updates along with photos to put us at ease so we could enjoy our day in the city. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole and Mitch did a great job. Micah’s hair was so soft when we got home. Thanks for keeping him combed. She sent pictures almost every day and seemed happy and cared for.”
“Lauren did an amazing job taking care of our special needs dog. Her dogs were super friendly and very welcoming of him even though he was much larger than them, and they all seemed to become great friends. We will be utilizing her services again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Linda was amazing! She was an absolute lifesaver and did great with my little dog (who can be a bit energetic and needy at times). Linda never missed a beat, and even sent little updates on how she was doing. Highly recommend, and your dogs are in EXCELLENT hands with her!”
“Once again, Regan was fantastic! I was gone over 15 days and I knew Daisy would be well taken care of. Regan kept me updated daily on how Daisy was doing and sent me plenty of photos to see she was doing great! I will always try to use Regan when I leave town.”
“Petra did an amazing job watching my two boys and it made our trip better knowing they were in good hands. Seeing the daily photos from the walks and cuddles made us very happy. The boys were both super happy at pickup and I could tell they both had a lot of fun. We will definitely be returning for future trips.”

About: Hey there! My name is Jessica, I’m am a registered veterinary technician. I know there is often pets needing last minute stays and care, and we will do our best to provide that! Being an RVT I am very qualified and experienced to take care dogs and cats with health issues that may require more care. I have dogs of my own that requires twice a day medication, as well as a cat. I work full time Monday-Friday but have a lunch hour to let out dogs. I will provide daily updates and photos so you know your pets are being well taken care of. Your pets will be treated as one of my own! One less thing to worry about while you are away! I work full time at a veterinary clinic. I am able to let pets out on my lunch hour and right before/after work. I am typically away on weekends but open to requests in the event I am available. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. As an RVT with years of hands on experience, I’m comfortable caring for pets with a variety of personalities, ages, and medical needs. When caring for your pet in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would expect in my own home. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal feeding, medication, and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure before I leave. I’m also very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, energy level, or overall appearance. If I notice something unusual, I’ll communicate with you promptly. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for. I take the time to build trust and provide plenty of patience, attention, and positive interaction.
“Shanelle went above and beyond to ensure our cats were well-fed and happy for the week were out of town. She kept in regular contact with us on the app with daily updates and pictures. She was also right on time with the initial visit. I would not hesitate to hire Shanelle again.”
“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!”
“Michelle was so amazing, it warmed my heart to know someone was actually giving my cat love and attention as much as I would because that’s usually a pet owners biggest fear. I was out of the country for around two weeks and worried about my cat because she tends to be a little shy and scared of new people and typically i only know how to deal with her. Michelle was perfect !! letting my cat slowly warm up to her presence visit by visit. She would send photos every visit and that was very reassuring, she would play with my cat and feed her and cuddle with gigi. I would get photos of gigi playing, running, and cuddling which is not her norm for when she meets new people so i was very happy with that.There wasn’t a moment where I was worried about my gigi. Michelle is so nice and compassionate and sweet and it shows because my gigi warmed up to her, she responds to messages and updates me where i felt reassured and comfortable, I could not be happier that i found her to take care of my cat and i was honestly lucky to have her as my pet sitter.I would definitely choose her again over anyone if I ever had to leave my cat again but in general with any animal because she actually cares.”
“Michele does a great job in caring for our cat. Our cat is very timid and shy, but this time around she actually came out to check on Michele a couple if times. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah did a fantastic job taking care of my difficult cats. I have one shy cat and one territorial cat and they did not phase her at all! I really appreciated knowing they had someone experienced looking out for them while I was out of town.”
“If I could leave Marianna a 500 star review, that still wouldn’t be enough. I needed last minute care due to a medical emergency, and she not only accommodated my need with less than 18 hours notice, but she did so with a level of care for my kitties that I have never experienced before. Within 15 minutes of her arrival, I had photos and videos of all of my babies (which is no small feat in itself), and she continued to provide multiple updates, photos, and videos. She was so so so loving and gentle with my kitties, stayed with them all day and overnight, and gave me the comfort and reassurance I was desperately needing. I will absolutely be hiring her every time I need a sitter moving forward (hopefully sans the hospital stay and ideally for a fun getaway instead). Thank you so much, Marianna. There are not enough ways to express my gratitude!”
“Alejandra did an amazing job looking after our two kitties! It can be very difficult to find a sitter that you trust to look after your babies and she proved to be very trustworthy and attentive. We will book again! 💕”
About: I’ve had my own cat, Maya, for 12 years now. She is my baby. I am a cat person through and through. I love all animals but as a highly empathetic person I especially connect with cats naturally.
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.
“Jessica has been our go-to sitter for our last 3 trips!! She is so wonderful at taking care of our 2 cats and really takes the time to provide the love and care they need! I'm always worry-free when we are away from home as long as Jessica is watching our fur babies :)”
About: I am married and have two daughters and a son. They are 12, 8, and 5. I have a wonderful German Shepherd, an Alaskan Klee Kai, and a 20 pound cat named Karen. We love caring for other animals. We have a big yard so there’s plenty of room to run.! I can come to your home or board in ours. We are very active individuals. Both my husband and I are runners. Just let me know if you have anymore questions and I would be more than willing to answer them! We are very flexible with our schedules. My husband works full-time, but I drive for Uber so I can make my own schedule when needed. We try to stay as active as possible and play with pets in the home. We have a German shepherd that loves the extra play time!

About: About 50 years ago when I was 12 years old, I met a scruffy dog while I was out playing. It was immediate Love. I led the dog home and proceeded to beg my parents if I could keep the dog. Unfortunately, they said no and they didn't even want it in the house. That night it rained and I stayed out there with the dog while we took harbor under the back deck stairs. I named him Pal. The next day, a friend down the street was allowed to take Pal into their family and he stayed with him until he went to heaven. Pal played a very important role in my life. I realized my passion for animals. Also after that, my family began to appreciate animals becoming a part of our family. Years later after I purchased my own home, I came across another homeless dog. I took him in and with my vet, we nursed him back to health. From that point on, I always had at least 3 dogs in my home and usually a cat too. I have cared for many animals from family members, friends and coworker. In hindsight, I have cared for more than 30 animals in my life. In the last 25 years, I have worked as an in-home provider for children. I was also the primary family caregiver for my mother when she returned home from the assisted living facility after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and needed to be brought home before her passing. I was also primary family caregiver for my father when he moved in with me and my daughter due to complications with diabetes and dementia before his passing. I am divorced and live alone, I am home 95% of the time and I rarely travel. I am available everyday of the week throughout summer because I have to be here for my child care and my animals. I have been doing in-home childcare/preschool for 25+ years. Due to my passion for dogs, I have joined Rover to provide care and boarding for dogs. The family room is now mostly dedicated for the dogs. The floor is padded, they can get on the 3 couches and chairs and there are several beds on the floor for their comfort. They have access to see out the back windows and out the back doorway. I have a large backyard that has been divided with a fence. There is the small yard dedicated for the children and a much larger area for the dogs. It is large enough for running and throwing balls - The back fence in both areas is open enough for the dogs to see and chase the school kids and trucks as they go by. My dogs favor the fire trucks and emergency vehicles that go by which is pretty often since the station is right down the street. They will usually stand out at the fence howling with the alarms as those vehicles go by. I scoop daily and I have the yard sprayed regularly for fleas, ticks and mosquitoes.
“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!”
“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 :)”
“Stephanie provided excellent care for Elvis during his daycare! She sent me pictures of him throughout the day. I will be booking with her again!”
“Always the greatest feeling to leave Kayla or Winston with Stephanie, who absolutely loves her. When both dogs are dragging you to the front door to get inside it’s always such a good feeling.”
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.
“Joy has watched rocket a few times now but this was the longest stay yet! I am so grateful that she was able to watch rocket and show her so much love. It is a lot easier leaving her knowing she is getting so much love and attention from Joy!”
“Anna and her team did such an amazing job taking care of our furbaby! They were super easy to communicate with and we’re always willing to provide updates with pictures included about our pups. They provided the best of care for our pup and had an array of places for him (fenced in) for him to run like crazy! They even have a designated dog area in their home! I was so happy that my dog (who normally is never relaxed when he’s away) was actually able to lay down and sleep! Truly amazing work and I’m so excited for our next booking!”
“Shauna took such good care of Luna! The booking was on such short notice and Luna deals with a lot of separation anxiety, but Shauna handled her very well and I was happy to not have to worry too much! Gonna turn to her again if Luna needs another sitter.”
“This is the 2nd time I’ve used Iryna and her and Ava are officially besties! 👯♀️ She has been so patient with my old girl and gained her trust and now she gets excited to see her. Being from out of town my girl just had a lot of change in a short period of time and Iryna took her time and worked with her to build that bond! I will be making her my regular dog sitter for sure.”
About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for animals has always just come naturally to me. I started walking my neighbor’s dog when I was 13 and have loved helping pets (and their people!) ever since. I have a flexible schedule, which means I can often accommodate last-minute bookings or changing plans. Being on a flexible routine also allows me to spend real, quality time with the pets I care for — not just quick check-ins. I love that I can give them my full attention and keep them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Services I Offer I offer drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting — all with plenty of love, attention, and updates along the way! 🐾 Drop-In Visits: Perfect for quick potty breaks, meals, or a little playtime while you’re out. I make sure your pet gets care, company, and a little fun — not just a quick in-and-out visit. 🏡 Boarding: When your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like family. We keep their routine consistent, make sure they feel comfortable, and give them all the affection they’d get at home (plus extra snuggles if they want them!). I also have two pups of my own that get along really well with other fur babies. 🛋️ House Sitting: If your pet prefers to stay in their own home, I can stay overnight or as needed to keep them happy and relaxed. I’ll take care of feeding, walks, meds, and light home care so you can travel worry-free. My goal is to give you total peace of mind and give your furry family the love and attention they deserve.

“Brittany was great and Ovi had a great time staying with she and her family! Very flexible and personable and made sure every detail about his care was attended to. And their dog Franklin was a great companion for Ovi!”
About: My wife and I have cared for pets our whole lives—dogs, cats, chickens, birds, and fish. Today we have two happy dogs of our own, and we often look after family and friends’ pets.

Our two dogs are on a regular schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and walks, and we’ll give the same care and consistency to yours.

“Nathan was great! Quick to respond and took our little guy for daycare on VERY short notice. No communication issues and we would definitely trust him to pet sit for us again.”
“Griffin took fantastic care of our baby. She was so excited to hang out with them everyday and play. She has been so much more confident around other dogs and people since. Would recommend them to anyone!”

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 18 and I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and cats, and I currently have four dogs of my own, so I’ve always been around animals. I work at a dog daycare in Lawrence, where I get to work with all kinds of dogs. I help with playgroups, feeding, medications, and making sure everyone is safe and doing well. I’m also comfortable with cats, including cats that are a little shy or like to keep to themselves. I recently graduated high school and just started at JCCC. I’m taking my prerequisites there and hopefully will eventually transfer to K-State and continue working toward my goal of becoming a veterinarian! My boyfriend, Cameron, is 20 and helps me with pet sitting. He loves animals too and has a lot of experience with them. He helped train our German Shepherd from a puppy and grew up with several cats, so he’s comfortable around both dogs and cats. I just like to let everyone know that Cameron may come with me for visits or overnight stays. We both really enjoy being around animals and will take great care of your pets 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. I do my best to be flexible to meet your pet’s needs !!

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!

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.

“Erika was able to meet with me on a moment's notice and was very reliable. She even worked it out to drive a little farther than she would have liked. Thank you Erika!”
About: I grew up taking care of puppies and rescues with my mom, and then moved into helping at a shelter while I was in college. As a grad student and current renter, I can’t have pets of my own so am glad to have the chance to get some cuddles in with yours. I'm happy to work with dogs of all ages and sizes and follow direction well if you are working with any training techniques. I have a soft spot for older dogs in particular and am also happy to look after any plants. I currently attend KU as a grad student where I teach two days a week and am focused on finishing my thesis this semester. I have a fairly flexible schedule and so can maintain a consistent routine for most pets while you’re gone. I’ve traveled a lot and been fortunate to be a guest in many people’s home. I pride myself on being respectful and leaving a house at least as good as I found it. I also try to prioritize pet comfort since I'm a guest in their home too. I try to let them lead interactions so they have a chance to warm up on their own level. I'm also happy to respect household rules and uphold the boundaries the pets are used to (ie., if they're not allowed on certain furniture). If you have any plants that need care while you're away, I love leaning into my green thumb too.

About: Howdy there & nice to meet you, I am a kindred soul who has experience working in doggy day cares/boarding camps as well as volunteering hours at various local animal shelters. I am an aspiring pet groomer and will be taking classes for that soon as well. I turned my passion to vibe with furry friends into paid play dates. I am a natural care giver and would love to meet your little (or big) one! I work a hybrid in the field/remote job so my schedule is super flexible. I have to already incorporate my schedule around my rightfully spoiled only child (Lincoln, my 8-year old Husky mix). I also combine pet care time with my self-care routine for exercise/physical activity. (Work smarter not harder). I have a fenced yard/porch, as well as a doggy door built into the door that leads to said yard/porch and security cameras that cover the yard so we can always see what's going on. As well as various toys, treats, and walking equipment always available to all our furry friends.
About: I’ve never known a time during my life when I didn’t have a pet. My family had several dogs and I even owned some exotic pets. My current doggo is Kali, a five year old Bernedoodle. As somebody who is highly empathetic by nature, I connect really easily with animals. For this reason, family and friends always trusted me to take care of their loved fur friends. I work well with young to old pets, and am accustomed to very gentle training and care with lots of love. This is my full time gig. I’m autistic, so being around animals is both therapeutic and what I enjoy as I find it to be much less stress inducing than work that requires socialization. I also have a special connection with animals as I’m a very empathetic person and read energies well. I have a yard and a friendly, trained bernedoodle that works very well with other dogs. She’s been in training and daycare since she was a puppy. Your pets are more than welcome to have a playmate if they’re friendly as well. I also have a large crate if your pet needs kenneled. I give pets constant attention and honestly spoil them, so to me they are just another family member.
About: I have worked with leash pulling, dog reactivity, and senior dogs. I am currently a Pet Dog Obedience Trainer in Overland Park Kansas! I am 19 years old and have been working/trained with dogs for at least 10+ years of my life. What started my childhood dog, Katy, continues to be an inspiration for the reach of my life. I work full time during weekdays & weekends are usually pretty open. I am open to dog/house sitting anywhere that is in a 40-45 minute radius of Overland Park. If you live 45 minutes or more from Overland Park I request an additional fee for drive time. I want to go above and beyond for your pets and make sure all their needs are met for you! I want to treat them as if they are my own dog.
About: I have been working for a dog boarding and daycare facility for about 2 years now. I have learned lots about dog behavior and how to interact with lots of different personalities- and I am still learning every day! I have experience in administering medications and would love to meet your pup! I currently work full-time caring for pets at a daycare facility, typically working either 6-1 or 1-7 Tuesday through Saturday. Fully available on Sunday and Monday! I have my own pup who is fixed and very friendly! I can bring him along if you want your dog to have any socialization or burn extra energy, but I am also more than happy to focus on your pet!
About: I absolutely love taking care of home pets! You will feel stress-free with me while taking care of your animals until you return home. I believe that animals need more love and care than just being let outside and fed. I have house and pet sat for two summers now, and I really love it! I am home from college, looking to have a simpler job during the summer! I am fully available all week and usually the weekends as well unless I'm on a trip! Very open to anything. I have a fenced yard for my pup at home, which helps them have more fun outside! I could also crate the animal if that is what is needed.
About: My sister runs kennels of all types of animals, i’ve gained so many experiences from her to bring proper care to your (fur) children ! i currently work part time as a barista, and i love animals so much so why not fit them into all of my free time! i have a big fenced yard that we keep clean, i have big pet beds and 3 different watering stations at my house. I am very good at reading animal language and have a certain knack for taking care of animals!
About: I have been dog and cat sitting since middle school! I live in Oklahoma and Kansas and do Rover in both for half the year. I have a bigger dog and smaller cat of my own at home but not in Kansas. I volunteer at the Lawrence Humane Society and love all types of animals!! I’m currently in school but am available most hours of everyday. I don’t have many other obligations during the weekdays so I am very flexible with timing! I am willing to work with whatever the owner would like. I am definitely willing to spend the night if necessary and can let out however often you would like.
About: I have three years of consistent dog-walking experience with the same family and their two dachshunds, visiting three times a week (1 hour walking) without missing a scheduled walk. That long-term commitment taught me the importance of reliability, routine, and building trust with both pets and their owners. I have also provided dog-sitting care for several families, often for about one month at a time, and have cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I take time to understand each pet’s normal routine, energy level, preferences, and communication style so they can feel safe and comfortable in my care. In addition to dogs, I am comfortable caring for cats and have many years of experience around horses through riding and handling. This has helped me become patient, observant, calm, and attentive to changes in an animal’s behavior. I genuinely enjoy building a bond through dependable care, play, companionship, and respect for each pet’s individual needs. I currently have a flexible weekday schedule and am usually available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I have plenty of time to give each pet calm, unhurried attention and am happy to follow their usual routine for walks, meals, playtime, rest, and companionship. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own routine. I take time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, personality, favorite activities, boundaries, and any special instructions from their owner. Whether I am caring for a dog or a cat, I keep doors and gates secure, handle leashes and carriers carefully, and pay attention to their behavior and comfort level. I also respect the owner’s home, keep pet areas clean, and leave everything as I found it. I am happy to send photos and updates during each visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, attention, and kindness.

“They took amazing care of my fur baby! Carolyn was incredibly thoughtful and went above and beyond to keep us connected to our pet while we were away from him. They treated him like family which meant the world to us. We will definitely request them to care for our baby again next time we need a sitter! 100% recommended!!”
“We had an amazing experience with Nicole and her family. She was so responsive, flexible, and communicative through the whole process. She has an amazing back yard with plenty of room for the dogs to run around. We received updates and pictures throughout our dogs’ stay, and it was clear they were completely loved on by her and her family!”
“New to Rover, Steve was at the top of the search list and surely Tako and I experienced why. He was great, he has a way with dogs and absolutely loves them! Very chill, laid back, and accommodated very well to my requests or changes. He is very responsive, updates on how Tako is doing, and detailed Tako’s visit at the end. The added bonus is that all I had to provide for Tako for his stay was a bowl and food, Steve took care of the rest! Tako was in very good hands, allowing me to enjoy my trip with no worries about my furry son. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else and will be asking Steve to dogsit Tako in the future!”
“Erin was absolutely amazing at caring for our dog while we were away. She and her husband showed him so love, treated our dog just like he was part of their family. She sent multiple pictures/videos each day. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Elizabeth and Chris were great! We left our 7 month old puppy for the first time for a family trip and she had a blast. Pictures from Elizabeth showed how much fun our pup had doggy ‘summer camp’”
“We can’t recommend Colter enough! He took wonderful care of our Corgi Saffron for two stays recently. One overnight and one 6 night stay. He communicates promptly and his home has been very clean each time we’ve been there. Saffron had never been anywhere overnight and she was excited to see him when we took her the second time and we’ve already booked another stay with him. His dog Rumi is very calm and sweet.”
“Jillian was absolutely amazing with our baby, Scooby! She took wonderful care of him and provided updates and pictures! Scooby definitely enjoyed his "vacation" with Jillian and I will DEFINITELY book services with her again! This was the first time he has been away from us overnight and we were a little worried, but the updates she provided, we felt very reassured that he was in the best hands! Thank you Jillian!”
“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.”
“Daniel did an absolutely fantastic job watching my two dogs Quinn (a senior dog) and Phineas (a puppy). He provided the perfect amount of communication and sent some really great pictures while we were away. I was thoroughly impressed by his level of care and would love to book with him again. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole and Mitch did a great job. Micah’s hair was so soft when we got home. Thanks for keeping him combed. She sent pictures almost every day and seemed happy and cared for.”
“Lauren did an amazing job taking care of our special needs dog. Her dogs were super friendly and very welcoming of him even though he was much larger than them, and they all seemed to become great friends. We will be utilizing her services again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Once again, Regan was fantastic! I was gone over 15 days and I knew Daisy would be well taken care of. Regan kept me updated daily on how Daisy was doing and sent me plenty of photos to see she was doing great! I will always try to use Regan when I leave town.”
“Petra did an amazing job watching my two boys and it made our trip better knowing they were in good hands. Seeing the daily photos from the walks and cuddles made us very happy. The boys were both super happy at pickup and I could tell they both had a lot of fun. We will definitely be returning for future trips.”
“Samantha is an excellent dog sitter! She invited Honey and Walter over for a meet and greet a few weeks before the boarding date for everyone to get acquainted. The pups settled right in and enjoyed their time. Samantha checked in regularly and sent pictures to show what they were up to. We will definitely board our dogs with her again!”
“Gina was really great. This was our first time leaving our dog for extended time while out of the country. Gina sent updates 1-2 times a day and always let us know how it was going. We could tell our dog was being well cared for and having fun from the photos/videos. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“We boarded our 4 month old puppy, Boba Fetch, with Richard and his dogs Trickster and Pickles when we went out of town. This was our first time leaving our puppy and Richard discussed with me my concerns and rules I wanted enforced. Also, I mentioned to Richard that I was trying to get Boba Fetch to have some new experiences and would appreciate any that he could provide. Richard treated Boba Fetch as one of his own dogs. He took him swimming and gave him a bath along with his two dogs. My puppy gained a ton of socialization experience and picked up no bad habits! I have never seen my dog so comfortable around a stranger! Richard also sent me picture updates. This experience has exceeded my expectations. I don't think his first stay away from home could have gone any better!”
“Kasey did amazing with our Scuttle and all dogs that come in her care. She is truly a dog saint and treats them all like her own. She is so passionate about taking care of your pup and all the pups are soooo happy in return!”
“Cristina is a great dog caregiver! My dog is blind and she took extra care of him. She is flexible and very accommodating. Her house is a great place for dogs and her fenced backyard is huge! And she took Finn on walks since he does like doing that. I look forward to booking with Cristina again when I go out of town!”
“Magen took care of Buddy for me while I was away. She kept me updated with a couple of photos each day and let me know he was doing well. He seemed happy and relaxed when I got home, and it was nice to know he was being walked and cared for. I appreciated having the peace of mind while I was gone. I'll definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
