“Kevin took great care of our dog for over 2 weeks while we were abroad. He kept us up to date with daily pictures and messages on how our dog was doing with the other dogs. It was really easy to drop off and pick up. Next time we’re going abroad we’ll definitely be leaving our dog with Kevin again. Great experience!”
“Puff is in great shape. Rebekah took very good care of her. I certainly would think of asking her again. I'm so glad Rover.com and Rebekah were there to take care of my kitty when I went on vacation; they get all five stars. Where am I supposed to leave a tip for Rebekah?”
“Taylor was great! She provided updates each day Clover was there and Clover warmed up to her quickly! Taylor is so kind and reliable. I'm looking forward to bringing Clover back and, hopefully, my pup, Flora!”
“Kathy was amazing with my dog Penny!!! Penny is a 1yr old Jack russell mix and has lots of energy, but Kathy played with her, went for walks and gave Penny lots of snuggles! Kathy was professional, caring, responsible and made me feel 100% comfortable leaving my dog with her. She sent pictures throughout the boarding process along with updates of how Penny was doing. I can’t wait to rebook with her & highly recommend her! 🐶😊”
“100% satisfied with Victoria couldn't ask for any one better to watch my dog. Ty is an 18 year old morkie who requires alot of care he is completely blind and wears a diaper and Victoria went above and beyond with my dog. I knew ty was in good hands with Victoria. I will definitely leave ty with Victoria if I ever need a dog sitter again. Thank you Victoria 😊 10 stars from me ❤️”
“I can tell by how eager Splash is when she gets out of the car that she loves vacationing with Sergio. My girl is an abandoned rescue with lots of anxiety but loves hanging out with Sergio. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15! I’ve had pets all my life growing up though! My neighbors, friends, and family, have relied on me to feed, walk, play, and give cuddles to their pups! I currently am working part time as I just started a new job, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and get them some exercise! My home has a fenced in dog park that i’m sure your dog would love to run around in and get some energy out! If your dog is better on a leash and loves to walk and sniff around your area I am happy to do that as well! I just want to be able to give your pup a safe and happy visit 😊
“Mike and his family were great. We left our very active pup with them for four days. Abe loved running in the back yard ( which is fenced in and huge) and playing with the other dogs. The communication with Mike was efficient and responsive and he sent daily pictures of Abe. We would definitely recommend Mike and will certainly use him again in the future.”
“We are so grateful Michelle was available to care for our extremely large puppy Willow. It gave us peace of mind to enjoy an unexpected overnight away. Willow played a lot, Michelle sent pictures and updates, and communication was great!”
About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, happy and well cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for my own pets and am comfortable with routines, attention, and companionship they need. I'm currently employed fulltime as a probation officer, but I am retiring in the near future, and I will have more time to devote to being a pet sitter. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I enjoy having a relaxed schedule and spending time with animals, so caring for your pets would be something I genuinely look forward to rather than a chore. I am happy to build my day around their needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship and attention. I also understand that pets do best when their normal routines are maintained, so I'll do my best to keep things familiar and comfortable while you're away. I enjoy exploring new places, but I am equally happy spending time at home with a furry companion. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. When caring for pets in someone's home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner's instructions carefully and make sure pets receive their meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Most importantly, I want pet owners to feel confident that their pets are being cared for by someone responsible, dependable, and genuinely happy to be there. I understand that every pet has different need and personalities, so I take time to get to know them and make sure they feel comfortable while their family is away. I am also respectful of the home and keep things clean and tidy.
“Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Samantha took excellent care of Kiki. She provided a loving environment with lots of petting and walks. I would recommend her and will certainly book with her again in the future.”
“Would 112% book with Mike & Craig again. Goose stayed there overnight and I received a few updates and plenty of pictures. He definitely felt at home. Coordinating with Mike was a breeze and the added personal touches were much appreciated”
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for years and have experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable administering medications to both dogs and cats, and I’ve also provided intensive care for my own dog following a leg injury, including medication, monitoring, and following veterinary care instructions. I currently have two very loving, social dogs who enjoy meeting both people and other animals. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I’m committed to providing patient, attentive, and loving care while they’re with me. I work a flexible client-based schedule that allows me to check in on pets throughout the day. I’m able to make visits between clients and provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and care throughout the day. I’m also available for boarding and can accommodate different routines based on each pet’s individual needs. My home is set up with pet safety and comfort in mind. I keep medications, food, and anything potentially harmful safely out of reach. I use separate food dishes and feeding areas for guest pets and my own dogs to help prevent food related conflicts. I also have dog gates throughout the home so pets can be safely separated when needed, along with a spacious area where they can play and relax. My two dogs are very friendly and enjoy the company of both people and other animals.
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Jennifer was amazing. Highly recommend hiring her to watch your pet. Communication was flawless from start to finish, and she was always incredibly quick to respond to my text updates. I loved receiving the photos she sent throughout the weekend, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She truly went above and beyond to make my dog feel at home. She spent time playing fetch—my dog's absolute favorite game—and was highly observant and adaptable when Daisy interacted with her own two dogs, ensuring all the pups felt safe and comfortable. To top it all off, she even sent my dog home with a toy she had fallen in love with during her stay. I will absolutely be booking her again!”
About: I used to work for a doggy daycare for three years and worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am CPR-certified for cats and dogs and I have basic animal first aid knowledge. I have had both cats and dogs most of my life. I am a full-time student, however, I do not have classes every day and am also available on the weekends. I would be more than willing to check in on your pets at whatever interval you are comfortable with. I am a responsible and respectful person who will follow your instructions and wishes regarding your pets. I have had pets with specific requirements and understand having specific instructions for your pets.

“Haley is amazing!! Our little princess is always so excited to see her and we never have to worry because she is in good hands. We get updates and photos so we know everything is alright. It's such a peace of mind when we have to go away knowing Haley will take care of her!”
“Jessica was so great with my babies! She played with them each time she visited and made sure they got lots of love. She even got my shy little guy to come out and play and get cuddles. Highly recommend Jessica! You and your furry friends won't regret it!”
“Kristie was fantastic with our kitties! We had a last minute cancellation from another sitter and Kristie was able to step in. She was communicative and easy to work with. Will definitely be asking her to take care of them again!!!”
About: Hi, im Soléna and I’m a big animal lover! I work in the service industry and I have a pretty flexible schedule to help walk your pups. I have experience with puppies, small, and large breed dogs. My 90lb Anatolian shepherd, Violet, is an 11yo that I have had since she was 9 weeks from the rescue. I'm currently working part-time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to come by 3x a day on work days, and 4x a day on days off. I do not offer a boarding option for my home. My dog as she's gotten elderly can be reactive to other dogs in her space. For walks, depending on behavioral notes, we would avoid other animals on the street, i.e. crossover, and avoid areas largely populated with dogs.
“I had such a great experience with Alyssa! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared so much about my pets while I was away. I received updates and photos that gave me peace of mind, and my pets looked happy, comfortable, and well taken care of when I got home. It’s obvious she genuinely love animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust Alyssa again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
“Taylor was great. She was very flexible with us, responded quickly, and was so helpful! She was great at drop off and made us feel very comfortable, and continued that throughout the stay with lots of pictures and messages!”
“I was nervous leaving my cat Bowie for our first trip away, and I think Bowie was a little nervous at first too, but they quickly became good friends! Nicole was super communicative throughout our trip, and we truly felt like we had left Bowie with a trusted friend. It gave us so much peace of mind. We will 100% be booking with Nicole again!”
“Jenna took excellent care of my cat Voodoo while I was away. She spent time with him daily and saw that he was well fed and kept him company. She is pleasant and professional. I would be happy to employ her again.”
“Kayla went above and beyond with our two 🐱 cats Both boys are elderly and fussy. Kayla gave them lots of love and care. She also was meticulous with feeding and cleaning litter and keeping up the area around their litter and surrounding areas. Greatly appreciated when returning from a trip👍🏻”
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and have experience with cats of different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, giving affection and attention, and administering medications when needed. I understand that cats can be more independent or cautious in new situations, so I’m patient and respectful of their individual comfort levels and routines. I’m committed to making sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away!
“Had such a great, easy experience with Sydney! The dogs absolutely love her and she really is a dog whisperer. My dogs aren’t the easiest and yet they are so calm with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker”
About: I've had the pleasure to be able to care for and have my own fluffy friend. I have dog sat for several families I used to nanny for, friends and family. I would be so happy to help you and your pet(s) I currently work a hybrid schedule where I can make my own hours so whenever you need someone I can make myself available any day! I cannot board because I have my own little fur baby but I can walk, feed, and care for your pet. Let me know when and where!

“Kevin is awesome! I was afraid to leave my pup for the first time since I’ve had her. Her interaction with dogs are minimal as she is the only child.. she is great with pups but has increased anxiety when she see’s any other pups or people because she loves attention! Kevin sent videos and updates through out her first day, she seemed happy in all of her videos and was excited to go to school this morning! Cannot wait to drop her off tomorrow for another day at school! I will continue booking twice a week! I should have done this sooner!!!!”
“Rebeka is very sweet. Marshall was nervous going to a new place but she sat with him and cuddled with him, which is exactly what works. She was responsive and professional with all communication and we highly recommend her! Marshall had adjusted and was happy by the time we came to pick him up.”
About: Our mission is to offer people a simple, affordable option for boarding their pets: to keep them fed, safe and company while you're away. There's nothing worse than doubling the price of your vacation just to get your pets looked after! We keep our boarding price more than reasonable to give folks the financial bandwidth to spend their vacation money on their vacation--not on boarding their pets. We are both contract workers with flexible schedules, and Taylor is often able to work from home so your pets will have plenty of companionship! So we told you our mission-- There's a few ways this translates. We have a huge yard. So, we don't take your pups on walks. BUT. We play fetch, tug of war, and intentionally initiate zoomies. If your pup is conditioned to expect walks, it's probably most fair to find a sitter who'll get that walk in! We love a good daytime cuddle, but we also like a good night's rest. So, your pets sleep in the living room, helping us avoid chaos while we're getting shut-eye. We kindly ask that if you book with us, that you're confident your doggies can sleep out on their own without too much fuss! We have an array of options for creating ideal environments for your pets, with baby gates, a large yard that can be segmented for dogs needing smaller spaces or space from others, and multiple kennels. Coming soon, an electric fence with an extra collar for your pup if you'd like it!
“So impressed and happy to have found these guys! I felt great energy and ease leaving my giant fur baby for an afternoon. Not only did I get about 10 pictures of him during his stay, but updates on their activities, his food and water consumption, his bathroom visits, and more. They left us with a happy and EXHAUSTED (win) dog, and an adorable goodie bag to go with it. Will definitely use them again!”
“Kathy was amazing with our dog Jax. My baby girl was having surgery in Boston and she put my mind at ease taking great care of our pup. Sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day which made us super happy! Can’t wait to bring Jax back for another visit!”

“Carrie was wonderful. My goldendoodle puppy is a tired girl after her stay ( a tired puppy is a happy puppy) There was a nice large yard for her to run around. Carrie was excellent!”
“Justine is fantastic! Justine took care of my dog while I was at a conference, and she was extremely responsive and was constantly sending pictures of Teddy having fun. I can't say enough good things and highly recommend Justine.”
“Jackie and Bill were awesome hosts: our 11 month Golden Retriever had a chance to interact with other dogs and Jackie also did some basic training while she had Coco with her. The setting is fantastic, with large and secure fenced-in yard, Jackie and Bill have tons of dog experience and they were very graciously flexible with extending Coco's visit when we got delayed at the last minute. Overall we couldn't have asked for a better situation for Coco!”

“Tara was great! She took Buddy on a walk right away to ease his separation anxiety! She said he adjusted well settling in for the night. She even sent us a picture! Pick up was a breeze.

I work 1 minute down the road so I am able to check on dogs for 30 minutes during my lunch. My schedule is consistent. I wake up every morning with my husband to give our dog his morning routine.

I have two separate rooms if your dogs likes to have alone time after a day of play. I am also flexible to do in-home care, if that is your preference.
“Melissa took great care of our Mandy who is a senior dog and needs a little extra help. She was great in letting us know how Mandy was doing and we greatly appreciate Melissa’s communication.”

About: I've lived with animals all my life, cats, outdoor farm dogs, small indoor dogs, to pitties that need a warm blanket and cuddles during storms. I like to study animal behavior in my free time and really feel that I can understand animals of any size and shape. I pride myself on being someone reliable to contact on short notice for emergencies and things of the like! I have my own car to get around efficiently and I'm almost never busy. I will follow the rules of the home and any specifics for each pet, I run on THEIR schedule to keep them as comfortable as possible while their humans are away.
About: Hi, im Soléna and I’m a big animal lover! I work in the service industry and I have a pretty flexible schedule to help walk your pups. I have experience with puppies, small, and large breed dogs. My 90lb Anatolian shepherd, Violet, is an 11yo that I have had since she was 9 weeks from the rescue. I'm currently working part-time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to come by 3x a day on work days, and 4x a day on days off. I do not offer a boarding option for my home.

“Liza is patient, communicative and professional. Our dog is nervous to new people. She greeted him in a way that was appropriate and is building his confidence to trust her and enjoy his walks. She helped me to navigate this app. We feel grateful that Nochi has someone with experience, skill and empathy.”
About: We’ve both had dogs our entire life and can’t see life any other way! Together we raised our current dog (Omaha) since he was just 10 weeks and are always excited to have additional dogs around. We are definitely a “dog dad duo” and we’d like to think we’re pretty good at it! Both of us are around during the day (one works from home and the other works nights). We have walking/nature trails literally in our backyard and they are very shaded (for those hotter summer days) and we also have a dog park on-site and close (if you’re comfortable with your dog(s) playing with others). Either way, we’re both around consistently to ensure your dog has a fun, comfortable stay. We have a spacious 2 bedroom apartment, nice shaded balcony and, as mentioned, access to trails and parks on-site. Whether your dog is active or more content to lounge around, we’re happy to accommodate. Additionally, we’re both very communicative and able to get updates out that meet your needs. We both are home during the week (one of us works nights and the other works remotely); meaning your dog(s) will always be well taken care of! We love to offer a nice cool apartment for your senior dogs to chill in, our on-site dog park and/or natural trails for your more active pups. We’re both very active with our own dog (Omaha) so we look forward to welcoming your family members too! Most importantly, we want to know how YOU care for your dog(s) at home so that we can try to incorporate as much of the same at our home! If your dog has certain quirks or special needs, we want to make sure that we are well aware so your pet has a fantastic stay. End of the day, we just hope to offer a comfortable, fun stay for your pet while you’re away for a day, week or longer.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 15! Dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, and fish from all breads and ages, big or small. I take care in bathing, grooming, feeding, and walking! I am currently a full-time college student so I am only available during holiday breaks and in the summer. I take care of my own pets and sisters but I love to keep busy throughout the week!! I can keep to the schedule you give me for your companion! I can give baths, play, feeding, and go on walks. I take lots of pictures and will update you on how the walk/sitting is going frequently. I know every companion has their own personality and will take the time to get to know them to make their experience with sitters a comfortable one!
“Kayla is very kind and my dog was very happy to walk with her. She provides great walk reports and pictures as well as goes above and beyond (helped clean an accident in the house) She is our weekly walker and we’re happy to have her”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15! I’ve had pets all my life growing up though! My neighbors, friends, and family, have relied on me to feed, walk, play, and give cuddles to their pups! I currently am working part time as I just started a new job, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and get them some exercise! My home has a fenced in dog park that i’m sure your dog would love to run around in and get some energy out! If your dog is better on a leash and loves to walk and sniff around your area I am happy to do that as well! I just want to be able to give your pup a safe and happy visit 😊
About: I've been looking after dogs and cats since I was 12! They've ranged from my grandma's shitzu to dog sitting mastiffs! I've even watched reptiles like ball pythons and geckos. I've walked, bathed, fed, watered, and loved them the whole time. I, myself, have 2 bunnies, fish, and a ball python. All together the most dogs I've ever watched at the same time was 28! It was 5 adults dogs, one puppy the equivalent to a toddler, and 22 puppies! I am willing to go to the cape and islands for house sitting! At the moment I'm hoping that pet care will become a full-time job. At the moment I am able to do any day and any time. I, sadly, do not have a cute puppy or kitty to play with your fur baby, however it just means they get more love from me! I can lift a 75 pound dog if needed and have the resources to contain one if necessary.
About: I have been around dogs and other animals, everything from chickens to guinea pigs, my whole life! I have pet sit for many friends and family members in the past. I love playing with my fur babies and am great with any size dog. I also love to teach/reinforce new tricks and basic obedience training, just let me know what commands you use! I started my business this year doing business and bookkeeping! I have a very flexible schedule and I am completely available to care for your pet in any way. I will do my best to form a trusting bond between me and your pet or pets. I love incorporating games and learning into my visits!
About: I have taken care of my family dog in many different capacities since I was 6 years old, and I enjoy walking, playing with, or just being active around all different kinds of dogs! I currently work at a middle school, so my summers, weekends, and afternoons are generally free! I also live in a pet-friendly home and a great spot for walks near the downtown New Bedford area. I make sure pets I’m taking care of can get a proper amount of attention and activity, so it feels like less of a scary change and more of a fun playdate.
About: I have had a dog my whole life and love playing with him, walking him, and running with him. I always take care of the dog I used to have and play with him all day long. He was very active and playful so I am used to dogs who are a little bit more energetic. I have a passion for animals and love being around them and having them in my house. I am super friendly and will always be willing to do whatever it is you need for your dog. I will provide many different things for us to do including: going for a walk around a park or even the beach. I will always accept any dog of a variety of sizes to walk and play with. I used to also walk with Wag! for about 5 years! I love playing with the dogs bringing them for walks and just being around them. I can walk at night during the week and all day on weekends. I am a teacher so summers I am more free to walk more as well! I will do whatever is needed to provide the best care. I always follow instructions carefully and never forget anything! I always provide extra time for play and cuddles!
About: I have been caring for dogs my entire adult life. I have become the go to for dog sitting among all my friends and family, and even my work place! I have watched dogs from puppy to senior. I have experience administering medication, ensuring correct schedules with feedings, and am an expert at making sure the pet is getting all the exercise and attention they need! I also have worked with a shelter walking, caring for, and even taking for visits dogs of many breeds and ages. At this time I cannot accept bookings for female dogs over 30lbs. I currently work entirely remote with flexibility for walks and drop ins as needed anytime during the day! Scheduling and time away from pet can be discussed for a pet by pet basis. Any further questions and additional details can be provided! I have a very large but fenced in yard. I have two cats who are immune to dogs and generally pretend they aren’t there when we have dog sat in the past. I also have two dogs of my own! Unfortunately at this timeI cannot accept bookings for female dogs over 30lbs, as one of my boys has a temperament against them. Male dogs of any size and smaller female dogs he adores! I am a combination of active and homebody so your pet will simultaneously get unlimited cuddles and all the exercise in my care!
About: Availability set for weekends, have some availability on weekdays must be by request. My name is Sydney, I have offered pet care for nearly 10 years. I have experience with aggressive, fearful, and special pups. No dog is too difficult for me! I am a student in school, otherwise this is my full time job! I also do nail trims for dogs who struggle at the vet or groomer! Correct equipment to walk a dog is very important. If your dog is easy on leash I will use an easy walk harness. If your dog struggles to behave or is unsure of themself on leash I use a prong collar in addition. Prong collars are SAFE and not scary or painful for your dog!
About: Animal care and working with animals is my passion, I've had pets my entire life. Friends and family say that if they ever had to have someone watch over their pets im the first person they'd go to not only to look after their pet but for advice aswell. I can't wait to meet with you and your pet, give them lots of love and all of the care they need and take them on a fun adventurous walk! You will receive frequent updates from me aswell as pictures! I'm currently available any day of the week for any time of the day! I would love to take your pet on a walk that will allow them to explore, they will be able to stop and sniff around for as long as they wanted! I would give them lots of love and play time and if you have a fenced in yard I would allow them to get all their zoomies out.

“Kevin was very quick to respond (and accept) our last minute request, even as a new client! He sent pictures every day, gave us updates, and even was super accommodating in extending our dog’s stay one more night. Would absolutely book again!”
“Puff is in great shape. Rebekah took very good care of her. I certainly would think of asking her again. I'm so glad Rover.com and Rebekah were there to take care of my kitty when I went on vacation; they get all five stars. Where am I supposed to leave a tip for Rebekah?”
“Taylor was great! She provided updates each day Clover was there and Clover warmed up to her quickly! Taylor is so kind and reliable. I'm looking forward to bringing Clover back and, hopefully, my pup, Flora!”
“100% satisfied with Victoria couldn't ask for any one better to watch my dog. Ty is an 18 year old morkie who requires alot of care he is completely blind and wears a diaper and Victoria went above and beyond with my dog. I knew ty was in good hands with Victoria. I will definitely leave ty with Victoria if I ever need a dog sitter again. Thank you Victoria 😊 10 stars from me ❤️”
“I can tell by how eager Splash is when she gets out of the car that she loves vacationing with Sergio. My girl is an abandoned rescue with lots of anxiety but loves hanging out with Sergio. Thank you so much!”
“Mike and his family were great. We left our very active pup with them for four days. Abe loved running in the back yard ( which is fenced in and huge) and playing with the other dogs. The communication with Mike was efficient and responsive and he sent daily pictures of Abe. We would definitely recommend Mike and will certainly use him again in the future.”
“We are so grateful Michelle was available to care for our extremely large puppy Willow. It gave us peace of mind to enjoy an unexpected overnight away. Willow played a lot, Michelle sent pictures and updates, and communication was great!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 9. I’ve owned aggressive / reactive dogs, dogs who need a lot of management, sport dogs, working dogs, and other animals with special needs. My personal dogs are elderly now and need more special care and I conduct all of it. I do drop ins, dog walking, and house sitting by myself but for boarding dogs me and my mom do that together (we are Angie’s pet care) that way our boarding dogs are with at least one person 24/7. I have a well fenced in yard and basement entirely dedicated to dogs! You can look us up at Angie’s pet care (Middleboro Mass). But our boarding dogs are allowed to be on the other floors with us (only when supervised) but someone is home majority of the day.
“Total rock star sitter - could not recommend Kari any more highly! This was only Sadie‘s second time boarding in someone else’s home without me…I learned from my first experience that Sadie does not do great with other pets in the house… and, even though Kari’s was pet free, I was still trepidatious about trying another boarding situation in a strange (to my pup) home. My fears were immediately alleviated upon meeting and seeing Kari interact with Sadie and how she let Sadie explore around her wonderful home. Physical relief was all I felt when I left Sadie with her. Kari kept me informed each day with reports and pictures of what she and Sadie were doing, and I was never worried that Sadie was anxious or anything but completely comfortable. Seriously will make sure that Kari is available anytime I plan anything where I need to leave Sadie with someone for any reason! I think my girl had a great time and definitely was very well cared for. Cannot thank Kari and her family enough! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Jacquelyn and Bill were great! I could tell they were knowledgeable right when I met them. And they could see that Barry was timid and would need extra attention and they made sure to provide that care. They have a great back yard and I know Barry played a lot because he slept right when he got home. They updated me and sent pictures throughout the whole stay and genuinely cared for our puppy. Would definitely recommend!”
“Samantha took excellent care of Kiki. She provided a loving environment with lots of petting and walks. I would recommend her and will certainly book with her again in the future.”
“Would 112% book with Mike & Craig again. Goose stayed there overnight and I received a few updates and plenty of pictures. He definitely felt at home. Coordinating with Mike was a breeze and the added personal touches were much appreciated”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
About: I used to work for a doggy daycare for three years and worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am CPR-certified for cats and dogs and I have basic animal first aid knowledge.

I would be more than willing to check in on your pets at whatever interval you are comfortable with. I am a responsible and respectful person who will follow your instructions and wishes regarding your pets. I have had pets with specific requirements and understand having specific instructions for your pets.
“Jen and her family took excellent care of our dog while he was staying with them. She took him for walks, played frisbee and let him run with her dog all day long. Our lab loved it there! They were very friendly, sent lots of pictures and were easy to coordinate pick up and drop off with. We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely be boarding our dog with her again. She was wonderful!”
