“Avery and her family were wonderfully loving and caring for our 15-year-old Pittie who had declined in health significantly over the last two months. We hoped beyond hope that he would make it until we returned home from an out-of-town wedding...and he did...in large part to Avery and her family giving him a ton of love for his last several days! They are as heartbroken as we are now that he is no longer with us. :)”
“Rachel did AMAZING! I have the craziest pups (redbone coonhounds) and they’re a handful! She sent me pictures from the moment I dropped them off. Updates all the time. I would recommend her to anyone in the area. If she can handle my pups she’ll care for yours with flying colors!!!”
“We had a great experience and will return for future boarding. Alycia was very accommodating to the needs of our senior dog. The frequent updates and open communication was helpful and reassuring.”
“I feel so grateful for Kim watching my dog, Ollie. She obviously loves dogs and takes wonderful care of them. Ollie likes socializing with the other dogs but he’s older and likes relaxing too. Kim’s house is a relaxing clean atmosphere for the dogs to play and can go outside when they need to. Love how she has gated the front door so no little one escapes. She sent photos and texts showing me he is content. Hopefully Kim will be available again when we go on a trip.”
“Henry loved every minute staying at their house!!! William and Haley sent us pictures and updates which helped to take the worry away and every picture showed Henry enjoying cuddles and fun! They were very flexible with arrival and departure, super accommodating (really only had to pack food), and the fenced in yard looked like a dream playground for any dog full of energy. I would not only highly recommend them, but we’ve found a dog sitter that we will FOR SURE use again!!!! This family is amazing and they had plenty of love to share with our pup Henry ❤️❤️”
“Simon loved staying with Dana! Dana sent pictures throughout Simons stay and made sure to answer any questions we had. It was a home away from home for Simon. I would book again and I highly recommend!”
“Awesome place to keep your dog, Amy is very nice and is good with dogs. The property is beautiful and theres lots of room in the fenced area, and several fields to walk and sniff. I recieved lots of pictures and updates the whole time. She took fall photos of George dressed him up like a turkey and he even had Thanksgiving dinner. I would definitely come back here to board my dog.”
“Great Communication with Megan & David for my 1st time leaving Jackson with a new Rover sitter. I was even welcomed to do a meet and greet that went well. It left me very comfortable leaving Jackson for 5 nights. I received pictures and updates on how he was adjusting. I have already set up some more stays for some trips I have planned. I highly recommend Megan & David for the care of your dog.”
“Jenny was phenomenal. She was very flexible with the times on drop off and pick up. Ember was happy with the long walks and nap time right next to Jenny. We were so glad our first time back on rover was made easy and delightful. Definitely going to be asking her again!”
“Jessica is great! My old dog is a bit needy and she was so sweet, meeting him where he’s at and not complaining about giving him extra attention. My kids and I all loved that she sent daily updates with photos. We will definitely check in with Jessica next time we need a sitter!”
“Tasha & Joseph were great looking after chunky! Pictures and updates provided daily and we missed him lots. Chunky seems to have had lot of fun and totally comfortable at their home. I definitely recommend them watching your dog(s).”
“Tricia is so great and amazing. My dog, yuzu loves it when she is with Tricia. I love how Tricia sends daily updates with photo. She truly is the best. I recommended her to all of my friends”
“Leeann was great! She sent us updates with pictures and took amazing care of our little pup. We were happy to know she had fun and met new doggy friends in the meantime.”
“Such a great sitter!!! Nancy was fantastic with our senior pupp, Domino. Her communication was fantastic, and he kept us fully updated with pictures during his stay. We look forward to booking Nancy to care for Domi during our future travels!”
“She was the best sitter. I was very worried about Flurry but she handled Flurry and my situation very professionally. Flurry was very happy with her and she was flexible with drop off time and pick up time. Traveling from New York was a stress but because of her my trip became stress-free. I highly recommend her for your dog. Flurry has a separation anxiety but with her I didn't feel that Flurry had any problems with her. She gave her food and communication was on point. She updated me with pictures and each and everything.”
“Rebecca was fantastic. She took great care of my pup Daisy while we went away to Florida. She sent daily updates with photos and made our boxer lab feel right at home. Would definitely use Rebecca again.”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”

“I have been hesitant to use rover for years. I finally decided to try it & Allie was amazing! I think she is a cat whisperer. My cat who typically hides from everyone warmed right up to her and took her medications no problem. Will definitely use Allie again and would recommend her to anyone!!”
“Angela did a fantastic job caring for my two cats, including administering insulin twice daily for my diabetic cat, maintaining dietary restrictions, and keeping her well-regulated! Both of my cats seemed super happy and relaxed with her, which is no small feat for the more sensitive one. I felt super comfortable leaving them with her and wouldn't hesitate to have her watch them again!”
“They were great with watching my cat. I was sent pictures which made me feel at ease with this being my first time being away from him. I would highly recommend booking with them!”
“Blair stayed in our home and watched our two sister kitties for 4 nights/5 days. Prior to her stay, she was an excellent communicator and asked lots of good questions. During the visit, she kept in regular contact, sending photos and updates, and left the house in great shape. I appreciate that this is Blair's profession, and she takes this work seriously. I would happily book her again and highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I have been petsitting since the age of 10, and caring for my own pets since the age of 13. Besides loving on my two resident cats, one of whom takes daily medication and has special medical needs, I have fostered over 40 cats and kittens for the Kenton County Animal Shelter since 2023. I have given many baths, syringe feedings, medication in pill, liquid, and topical forms, and lots of love to every cat I have gotten to care for. I love a cat with a big personality and have fostered medically complex cats and near-feral cats and kittens in need of socialization and space. Gaining an animal's trust is a gift, and I will be happy to meet your cats wherever they are at. If you are looking for a pet sitter who will be punctual, communicative, and extremely attentive to your kitties, I am the right sitter for you! You can count on me to clean litter boxes, administer medication, ensure food and water are available as instructed, and update you with photos and information about how your cats are doing every time I drop in.
“Christina was the best! she took excellent care of our kiddos and even got our most sensitive cat to eat his meals (and take his meds!) without any issue! she sent us tons of photos, was super communicative, and super flexible. 10/10 recommend her for all your pet needs!!”

About: Hi, I’m AJ, a lifelong pet lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve had pets since childhood and have house-sat for neighbors, family, and friends, ensuring their pets were happy and well cared for. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pets and home in someone else’s hands. I’ll provide attentive care, keep your pets happy and comfortable, and ensure your home stays safe and well-maintained. I’m also happy to send regular updates so you always know how things are going. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets—feel free to reach out! My 9-5 job is fully remote, which means I’ll be around to keep your pets company throughout the day. I’m available most days of the week and am happy to travel and stay in your home to ensure your pets feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I live in a quiet, two-bedroom condo with no other pets, making it a comfortable space to board cats and small/medium dogs. Since I work from home, I can provide plenty of attention all day, and take your dogs outside regularly for walks and fresh air. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine, including crating if needed. I also offer house sitting to keep your pets comfortable in their own home while you’re away.
About: Cats have been a constant joy in my life since childhood, and as an adult, I have proudly shared my home with four wonderful felines. Currently, I am cat parent to Indie, a two-year-old short hair who is harness-trained and actively learning how to walk on a leash! Because I truly love cats and understand their unique personalities, quirks, and boundaries, you can trust that your feline friends will receive top-notch attention, playtime, and affection while you're away.
“Ashley was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and book her again! She was super attentive and caring to our dog while we were away. She sent pics and took our dog for a walk everyday. Super kind and responsive. No issues at all. 😊”
“Hannah is absolutely INCREDIBLE. She loved on our teething 3 month old Aussie with so much grace. She sends lots of updates which is great for us because we always feel bad leaving her. Thank you Hannah for your patience and time! We will be a repeat customer for sure!”
About: I’ve owned and cared for multiple cats at once (up to 13!), most of them since birth and I’ve also spent over two years fostering, so I’m very comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and needs. I understand how important it is to be patient and let cats warm up at their own pace. I’ve always had a special love for cats and have hands-on experience caring for all kinds of personalities—from super social to shy and independent 🐾 I’m experienced with medication administration, feeding routines, litter box care, giving lots of love (when they want it 😊), and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I always adjust to what makes them happiest.
About: I’ve grown up with and lived with cats my whole life, so I understand their moods, routines, and the little things that make them feel comfortable and loved. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs, whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just giving them space. I’m also happy to help with all the responsibilities of cat care, including feeding, providing fresh water, and keeping their litter box clean and fresh. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

“I was once where you are now. Scrolling through Rover trying to find the best dog sitter/match for your furry family member. It was reading those reviews that led me to Susan. And it was Susan who absolutely saved the day for us. We had a plan that didn’t work out and suddenly needed someone we trusted in a town where we knew not a soul to care for our 3 small pups. Our smallest being a 3 pound tea cup yorkie who suffers separation anxiety when she and my mom (her human) are apart. Susan took time to meet the family and the pups. She followed instructions to insure our 3 fur babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. All 3 dogs came back happy and exhausted. - The humans who went to the Ark returned the same… In other words. Ask Susan to watch your pups. She’s solid gold.”
“Jax had a great day with Amy and fur buddies. The fenced-in area is very large with lush green grass. Jax also enjoyed the pool. Amy is a delight and has a great love for her pets and those she cares for. I thoroughly enjoyed the pictures and knew Jax was in good hands. If ever back in this area Amy would be my choice for doggie daycare!😍”
“Hailey is very close to the Ark Encounter and we left our 2 pups with her while we visited the Ark. They had a great time and so did we. Hailey sent photos of their day together. We were able to book less than 2 days out. Highly recommend!”
“Ryan was very attentive with the puppies - they were a bit more anxious than expected but Ryan made sure to keep an eye on them, which I appreciated! We will definitely be using him again for one off day care days!”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have hands on experience with all kinds, from small attached lap dogs to giant breeds. I currently help care for two dogs at home, including one with food aggression who requires separate feeding. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering care, and giving pets the attention and exercise they need. Your furry family member will be in good hands! I currently work at Target on an on-demand schedule, which gives me flexibility with pet care. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m happy to communicate my schedule in advance and work with owners to find times that fit. I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and boarding when my schedule allows, including weekends and many weekdays. My priority is making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow feeding, medication, walking, crate, and other care instructions. I live in an apartment without a yard, but pets staying with me will be taken outside regularly for potty breaks, walks, and fresh air. I can also stop by a client’s home before or after a Target shift when arranged ahead of time. I’ll treat your home and pet with respect, provide regular updates, and give your pet plenty of attention and affection. 🐾💕
About: I ONLY TAKE ONE PET AT A TIME SO THEY GET 100% OF MY ATTENTION & LOVE 24/7. I've had critters to love and care for since I can remember - all kinds: dogs, cats, a pony, ducks, chickens, rabbits, birds, guinea pigs and fish. Animals have always been a very important part of my life. I worked for a vet for several years, was on the Board of my local SPCA and have rescued 3 dogs and a cat as part of our family in the past 15 years. Now our empty nest home is pretty quiet but I am always ready to love some more! I started pet sitting for friends and discovered how fulfilling it can be, so I am more than ready to care for your fur baby too. I am at home full time now and have the whole day to tailor to the needs of the critters I care for, so even special needs are not usually a problem. I am an avid photographer and will happily send photo updates regularly. OH, and I go by LOLLY (a nickname since I was a toddler). I have a large fenced yard for off-leash, supervised play time and live in a forest with acres of trails for leashed walks. I have one cat at home and aim to board only ONE DOG AT A TIME (or two if they are housemates already). Your pet will stay inside my home which is a peaceful and safe environment, no small children, quiet neighbours and a husband who loves to give free belly rubs! Home 24/7 so am able to be with your pet all day and night which is especially important for little ones who aren't used to being away from home. We have a large fully fenced and large back yard in a forest-like setting and miles of trails for leash walks. Also a smaller fenced area within the larger fenced yard for late night or early morning relief. Your pet will never be outside without me.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. I have firsthand experience raising puppies, including my own golden retriever and various other breeds while growing up in my family. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their pets. I am patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will rarely be alone. My flexible schedule allows for frequent potty breaks, midday walks, and plenty of cuddle time throughout the day. I’m available for boarding and daycare every day of the week. I live in a comfortable townhome with a partially fenced backyard and spacious front yard. Safety is my top priority, I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and I am very attentive to your dog’s body language and comfort levels on walks. I am very happy to take your dog on regular walks, and live in a neighborhood where there is a big park nearby. I treat your pets as if they were my own and ensure they feel safe, secure, and right at home.
About: I have 2 dogs and a cat, and have had 8 dogs, 22 cat ,12 birds, and a goat at the same time growing up and I took care of them all. I can walk any dog no problem have been training our puppy to walk around loose lease. I’m a stay at home mom of 3. So I can drop in as much as needed. I have worked with very skittish dogs on multiple occasions. I will take “aggressive” dogs as a case by case. I have been taking care of animals for most of my life. It started by cleaning litter boxes and giving cats water to taking care of 43 animals by myself. I volunteered at different animal shelters in the different places I have lived at. My husband use to be a K9 handler in the Air force, So I learned training Techniques from him and trained my Golden Retriever with the things I have learned. I am a stay at home mom. We have Our normal Appointments that I am not available for but while they are in school I am Home most days. I have a fenced yard and plenty of room for them to play. We love to just sit around and hang out with our animals, so we would Treat your pets just like ours.
“Rebecca and her husband were wonderful! I immediately felt comfortable in there home! Jackz our dog is blind and Rebecca was not only willing but happy to help us and Jackz out!”
About: What sets us apart is the genuine care and experience we bring to every dog we welcome into our home. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and before having our daughter, we fostered dogs, which gave us experience with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs. We currently have a friendly 2-year-old lab mix, so we’re very familiar with maintaining routines, exercise needs, and positive reinforcement. One of our biggest strengths is working with anxious or shy dogs—we’re patient, attentive, and take the time to build trust at each dog’s pace so they feel safe and comfortable. We treat every dog like part of our family and strive to create a calm, loving environment where they can relax and be themselves. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday. Your dog will have consistent companionship throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods. During the day, dogs are free to relax, play, and interact with our friendly 2-year-old lab mix. We also incorporate daily walks and outdoor playtime (weather permitting), along with plenty of attention, affection, and structured routine. Because I’m home, I’m able to closely monitor each dog’s needs and adjust care to ensure they feel comfortable, engaged, and right at home. Then when my husband and daughter are not in work or school they will help care for your dogs and play with them. In our home, we strive to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog in our care. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise in a secure space. Inside, dogs are treated like part of the family—free to relax, play, and enjoy a calm, structured routine. We can accommodate crate training if your dog is used to it or needs a safe space while we’re briefly away from home. We pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, a quieter environment, or a consistent routine, so they feel secure and at home during their stay.
About: We have watched many pets over the years and are finally bringing our love to the masses. :) We truly love all animals (every where we have lived animals indoor/outdoor just flock to us it seems ha). We give them the care they deserve and treat every last one as if it were our own personal pet. We have also had several pets through the years that needed medical attention daily (generally giving medication) and understand the importance of maintaining medicine/medical care in a very timely manner. If you are looking for the best care for your pet, look no further this family of pet lovers is where its at. We took a little time off to focus on some other things but we are back at it and ready to love and care for your pet better than anyone on this app 😀♥️ (we might be biased). I work from home full time so I am here almost 24 hrs/day to care for your lovely pet. On the weekends we come and go for short periods of time but generally we are home 80% of the weekend at least. We welcome long and short term pet stays, we just love pets. I have kids who "LOVE" to entertain/give attention to pets and try to teach them new tricks. I have several nearby dog parks, and 1 dog of my own. I have a Black Lab/Great Dane mix about 5 yrs old. He loves having other pets around after he get his sniffs in :)

I will give your pet lots of love and attention. I will follow any special instructions for your pet as you desire. I also have a wonderful fenced in backyard for extra fun playtime if they are staying at my house.
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
“This will be the third week in a row that my Roxxie will be attending doggy day care with her two new dog friends in Nancy’s home. It’s so amazing that I can go to work and not have to worry at all if my dogs being well cared for. Nancy is the best!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and started pet sitting for neighbors at 12 years old. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, and other small pets. I’ve volunteered walking dogs and caring for cats in animal shelters and am comfortable administering medications and caring for both young and senior pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of dependable care, communication, and maintaining your pet’s routine while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine.

About: Hi there! I’m Steven - lifelong dog lover, experienced sitter and a pet parent of two sweet pups: a Bernese and a Chihuahua. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new, and my goal is to make every pup feel right at home and every owner complete at ease. With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, I have handled everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. I’m patient and love learning each dog’s quirk and routines. I work from home most days, which means your dog will get plenty of attention throughout the day. On the days I am in the office (usually Tuesday and Wednesday) I can adjust my schedule as needed to fit your pet’s routine. I live in a safe, pet friendly community in Colerain with plenty of green spaces for walks. I also love taking dogs to parks for a change of scenery or staying cozy indoors for extra belly rubs! Safety always come first. All outdoor time is fully supervised and your pup will never be off leash unless in a safely enclosed area. I truly treat every dog as my own and want to make your time away stress free. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! My day pretty much revolves around dogs — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Since I work from home most of the week, I’m able to keep a flexible schedule full of walks, playtime, and cuddles. My own pups keep me active and in a great routine, so adding another furry friend into the mix feels natural. Even on my in-office days, I make sure every dog gets the attention and consistency they’re used to. I care for every dog as if they were my own. At my home, pups are part of the family — they can lounge, play, and get lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe, and I always supervise outdoor time. When I’m watching pets in their own home, I do my best to keep everything just how they like it. I stick to their regular routine, give them lots of love, and keep you in the loop with updates and pictures so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember, began working with them in my teens, and am excited to continue building connections and care for pets in my community. I have a flexible work schedule and enjoy being productive and active in my free time. I’m here to help in any way I can! Safety and trust are paramount to me. Communication with owners ensures my safety, as well as your furry family member’s. Always willing to answer any questions or concerns!
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies and young dogs who need extra patience and consistency to senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, extra bathroom breaks, or additional attention. I’m also happy working with shy, anxious, or nervous pets and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I believe the little things make a big difference—keeping pets on their normal routine, providing plenty of play and affection, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I take that responsibility seriously and strive to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to provide consistent walks, playtime, attention, and loving care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s routine. I give plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, while respecting their individual needs.
About: I have had pets for my whole life. Most of my friends called my house a "zoo" growing up because of the wide range of animals we had around the house, from puppies to snakes to pigs- we had it all. When caring for another animal, I treat it like it were my own. I always saw my pets as an extension of my own family and want to treat all animals the same way. I am currently home from college right now, so I am flexible. I have 3 pets of my own who I take care of, other than that I am free. It depends on the pet and their individual needs. I have a dog, but he is extremely active and loves being outdoors, so letting him out every hour or couple minutes is important for him. Whereas, another dog may not enjoy. being outside as much or have certain medical needs that prevents them from running. I love cuddling up on the couch with my pets (dog and two cats), and giving them affection. I also enjoy spending time with them by getting them active and playing their favorite games/ toys.
About: Hi there! I’m Katie, your go-to pet lover who believes every wag, purr, and cuddle makes life brighter. I’ve grown up around animals and have spent 15 years caring for dogs, cats, and even the occasional quirky critter. Whether your pup needs adventurous walks, your senior dog needs gentle care, or your cat just wants a playmate, I’ve got it covered. Caring for animals isn’t something I have to “make time for”—it’s already woven into my daily rhythm. Each day, I start and end with time spent outdoors, which makes dog walking and playtime a natural part of my schedule. I plan my mornings and evenings around walks, meals, and check-ins, and I keep my afternoons flexible for drop-ins or longer adventures. When I come to your home, my priority is keeping your pet comfortable in their own environment. I follow your instructions closely—feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and special quirks are all respected. I keep things tidy, give them plenty of attention, and send you updates so you know they’re well cared for. Pets feel secure because they get to stay in the space they know best, while still getting all the affection and companionship they need.
About: I have been in the animal care business for the last 10 years. I personally have a very loved dog that I have cared for, for the last 11 years. On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.
About: I have had dogs all my life and I have a 3 year old lab mix named Frannie. I love giving dogs the attention and exercise that they need to live a happy life! My dog Frannie is hyper active and suffers from anxiety, therefore I know what it is like to have a hyper or uncomfortable dog. I love making sure Frannie feels her best 24/7 and I feel the same about other dogs. I love to go on walks, play fetch, and roll around on the floor with any dog who is willing. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and I will make sure that I leave them as comfortable as they were when I arrived to your home!
About: I am a dog and cat owner. I am very responsible and fun. I think that pets are not just “pets” and that they are family and should be taken care of as so. I have experience watching three different families animals. I watched a families dog for 3 months when they went over seas. I try my best to be flexible but I do attend nursing school. Outside of my classes I typically have an open schedule. I am dependable when it comes to being punctual and completing any and all tasks. I set goals for myself and I always give 110 percent in whatever I am doing. I am comfortable with any sized dog and also any other pets. I am also comfortable with any age of the animal that I am taking care of. I work from home and build my own schedule. I have flexibility in my schedule to take pets to dog parks and out for a long walk. I respect that pets are most comfortable in their own space with their own smells and routines. I follow your instructions closely — from feeding times and walk routes to any quirks or commands your pet knows. I treat your home with care and always leave it exactly as I found it.

“Avery and her family were wonderfully loving and caring for our 15-year-old Pittie who had declined in health significantly over the last two months. We hoped beyond hope that he would make it until we returned home from an out-of-town wedding...and he did...in large part to Avery and her family giving him a ton of love for his last several days! They are as heartbroken as we are now that he is no longer with us. :)”
“Patricia watched our 2 cattle dog mixes for a week. She sent us daily updates with photos and was highly communicative and professional. Our pups loved Patricia (as well as her backyard lol) and she reported they were well behaved for her which is a sign of attentive care. We will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Rachel did AMAZING! I have the craziest pups (redbone coonhounds) and they’re a handful! She sent me pictures from the moment I dropped them off. Updates all the time. I would recommend her to anyone in the area. If she can handle my pups she’ll care for yours with flying colors!!!”

“Awesome place to keep your dog, Amy is very nice and is good with dogs. The property is beautiful and theres lots of room in the fenced area, and several fields to walk and sniff. I recieved lots of pictures and updates the whole time. She took fall photos of George dressed him up like a turkey and he even had Thanksgiving dinner. I would definitely come back here to board my dog.”
“Great Communication with Megan & David for my 1st time leaving Jackson with a new Rover sitter. I was even welcomed to do a meet and greet that went well.

I highly recommend Megan & David for the care of your dog.”

BiBi seemed to really enjoy her time with Katie and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is nervous to leave their dog.”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have hands on experience with all kinds, from small attached lap dogs to giant breeds. I currently help care for two dogs at home, including one with food aggression who requires separate feeding. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering care, and giving pets the attention and exercise they need. Your furry family member will be in good hands! I currently work at Target on an on-demand schedule, which gives me flexibility with pet care. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m happy to communicate my schedule in advance and work with owners to find times that fit. I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and boarding when my schedule allows, including weekends and many weekdays. My priority is making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow feeding, medication, walking, crate, and other care instructions. I live in an apartment without a yard, but pets staying with me will be taken outside regularly for potty breaks, walks, and fresh air. I can also stop by a client’s home before or after a Target shift when arranged ahead of time. I’ll treat your home and pet with respect, provide regular updates, and give your pet plenty of attention and affection. 🐾💕

Hazbleydy kept me updated with pictures the entire time, and even went out to get supplies for my dog that had ran out of during the stay. I would highly recommend her!”
