“This is my second time booking with Ciara and she continues to go above and beyond! Pipa is a nervous girl especially around strangers but Ciara assured that everything would be okay during her stay and it was! Within a few hours Pipa was comfortable and cuddled up with her on the couch! Ciara sends plenty of updates (pictures, videos) and responds quickly if you need accommodations made. Pipa absolutely enjoys her time with Ciara and made a new friend with her puppy! We will definitely continue to rebook!”
“Casey, Phil and their dog Chloe were absolutely fantastic with Penny, our 6 month old golden retriever puppy, for a week long stay. They sent us daily pictures and updates about how Penny was doing which really took the stress out of leaving her for the first time. They were patient at our meet and greet ahead of her stay and made sure to answer any and all of our questions. Would highly recommend them and we will absolutely be using them again in the future!”
“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”
“Jonathan & Amy were awesome! Phoenix had so much fun there. We got tons of pictures showing her playing and enjoying herself. I felt very comfortable leaving here there and would highly recommend them to anyone needing this service. Now I know I have a "go to" for the next time.”
“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!”
“Thank god for Rebecca! I was really nervous about leaving my dog at home while I was out of town for a few days since the dog gets anxious and can chew things. Rebecca was so attentive with my dog and put my mind at ease with her daily recap and photos! I can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs and knows how to handle different situations. Rebecca is fabulous and I will definitely hire her again - in fact, now that I’ve found a really good dog sitter I can travel more, knowing my dog is safe and well taken care of. Thanks Rebecca!”
“Breanna N is a very caring and experienced dog sitter. My senior dog was extremely well cared for. Pictures were sent during her stay. Highly recommend Breanna N. Will be rebooking soon”
“Jenna and Michael were wonderful. We are also sitters on Rover and probably have higher than average standards for our babygirl Sadie (~60 lb rescue). We first did a meet and greet and from the moment we meant them we knew they were good people. We had already meet four other sitters at this point and were starting to feel hopeless. Jenna and Michael were warm, and lovely from the start. Their home is spacious, their yard is BIG, and their own pup, Chase is adorable! Sadie got lots of exercise playing with Chase and going on walks. I was worried that Sadie would taunt their chickens the entire time (which she probably did) but they handled it with evident experience around this challenge. We would happily book with them again. Even though we had to drive 45 minutes to them, it was 100% worth it. Thank you, Jenna, Michael, and Chase.”
“We had an excellent experience with Lakshmi and Shiva as dog sitters for our beloved Leo. They, along with their sweet dog Bruno, provided top-notch care for Leo during our two-week absence. We received regular videos of Leo enjoying his time, and it was evident that he had a fantastic vacation of his own. We highly recommend Lakshmi and Shiva for anyone in need of trustworthy and caring dog sitters. Leo was in great hands, and we couldn't be happier with their service!”
“Blaine did a Great Job watching my dog for 2 days! I was a little worried about Blaine’s dogs, because my dog is very picky about her dog-friends. But Blaine’s dogs were great with my dog. I think the visit helped my dog with her hesitation about interacting with other dogs. Blaine was diligent in following our directions about our dog’s food. He also sent us lots of photos. I guess the best compliment is that my dog was having such a good time, that she seemed like she wanted to stay. LOL”

“Sarah and Ben went above and beyond while watching our dog. He celebrated his birthday with them and they send us several pictures and spoiled him with treats. Great communication, easy pick up and drop off, and trust knowing our boy is in great hands.”
“Cheyenne was amazing! My boy Leroy is a classic Velcro dog. He thinks he’s a person, so he always has to be with his human pack. Cheyenne made sure he was included in everything, and sent the cutest pictures that both cracked me up and made me miss him even more while I was gone. I felt so relieved and comfortable, knowing she was taking such good care of him. Even though we just met her, they totally clicked on their meet and greet so I knew my baby boy was in good hands.”
“Sharon and John took care of my little terrier second time. He was safe, happy and I loved getting daily pictures of him. Knowing he is with great sitters gave me a piece if mind. Will definitely book again!”

“Our first time leaving our dog to go on vacation was a huge success thanks to Amanda and her family. Being able to do a meet and greet with our dog ahead of time really helped put our minds at ease knowing he was going to be in good hands. His whole stay Amanda was sending daily photos and updates. You cannot beat peace of mind and reliability. We will definitely rebook again in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Namrata! She was always in touch, very responsive, and regularly sent us photos and updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our dog had an amazing time in the backyard - she absolutely loves playing outside, especially when there’s lots of snow, and it was clear she was happy and well cared for. We truly appreciate the attention and care Namrata gave her and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“I really enjoyed hosting my Odie at your house, he sent me a picture of him happy, and when I went to pick him up he showed that he had really liked them, saying goodbye to them many times showing that he had been very well treated, if I need him again that's where I would like to leave him again. Thank you”

“We’re so happy with how well Kerry cared for our cats. Her communication was excellent. She even helped us with an issue that came up while we were away. Kerry goes above and beyond and truly cares about animals.”
“Montana cared for my two cats for over a week and truly went above and beyond for them- even spoon feeding one when he was being a bit of a prince about eating. She was very respectful of my house and left everything clean. She even took out the trash and the litter genie bags at the end of the week which I did not ask for or expect! Thank you so much for taking such good care of them that I didn’t have to worry at all for the whole trip!”
“Amara is friendly, communicative, and reliable. She was so good with the cats that she even was able to draw out our shy girl. We would love to use her again - high recommendation!”
“Alani was awesome with drop ins for our cat. We were very nervous leaving our cat home for the first time, but Alani helped ease our minds with great communication and pictures! Thank you again!”
“Katrina is a lovely, highly competent, and thoughtful sitter. She stayed 3 days with my 3 elder kitties and did an excellent job in administering medication, feeding, caregiving, and updating me with photos on their status. What a relief to be away and knowing that all was well at home with the kitties. I highly recommend Katrina and consider her the go-to person for my future!! cat care!”
“Sarah provided several drop-in visits daily for my cat, Cole, while I was away for 5 days. The whole process from the meet and greet, to booking and services was very smooth. Sarah was kind and thoughtful in all of her updates, and took the time to care for Cole’s needs. Sarah is wonderful, and I’m so glad Cole received so much love and care while I was away.”
“Cassie did such an amazing job dropping in on my pups while I was away for a week+ and I can’t thank her enough! She was super communicative and sent updates and pics and I felt really comfortable with the whole situation, and my pups seemed to love her which was really important to me. I would absolutely book her again!”
About: I took care of my mother's dogs up until I moved out. I've taken them to appointments, bathed them, provided nourishing home made meals, trained them to learn new tricks, and trained them on obedience. I strongly believe animals bring joy to a home and so they deserve to be treated with the same love that they bring to us. Since then I've been caring for dogs of all sizes & energy levels. I currently stay at home as a full-time mother so my time is mostly open and very flexible. I'm available any day of the week so I'll be here for whenever you need me. First I gain the pets trust first before roaming any further, usually clients leave me a list and I will complete the list without bringing any worry to you or your fur baby. Im there for you and your pet only.
“I'm a fur mama to two kitties and I love using DogVacay. It's always nice to find a host, like Michele, that doesn't mind checking in on other kinds of animals. I recently moved to Bridgewater and reached out to Michele, who responded so quickly and was more than willing to work around my schedule for a meet-and-greet. Instantly my hubby and I loved her and so did our babies! We had her check on our cats daily each morning for about a week. My instructions were followed to a T, we would receive texts frequently letting us know how they were doing, and she even paid them an extra visit just because she wanted to play with them! The cats really loved her and I look forward to booking her again when we go out of town. I would highly recommend Michele - she's kind, funny, and so sweet!”

About: Hi! I am Lakshmi and I personally have 7yrs of experience with dogs of all kinds. Me and my husband both love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. We would love to take care of your pooch while you are away. We promise to provide brisk walks, fun playtime, and of course belly rubs and cuddling for your beloved dog. So that you can have a guilt free vacation of your own :) Our schedule is flexible and your dog will never be home alone for long. The couch and bed are never off-limits. We separate the dogs during feeding times and ** safety is out top priority**. So we make it a point to do a meet and greet for all the first time clients. We have a six-year-old Labrador retriever boy named "Bruno" whom we adore! He is neutered and is very friendly. We fully understand all the hard work, effort, and commitment which goes into raising our fur babies. I totally understand how much difficult it can be to be away from your pet. We will do our best to make your vacation stress free by giving regular updates on your pooch is doing. We both have our own full time jobs and I work from home. So, rest assured that your dog is never unattended for more than 2 hours except when we are at the gym or have some errands to run. We have a friendly dog of our own at home to keep your dog company 24/7. There is no fenced yard but we live in a beautiful community and we do long walks and park visits(when the weather permits).

“Alani took great care of my senior dog for the day and was able to accommodate my last minute request. My dog Rocko was happy as can be! She sent photos and was super responsive to my communication. Overall a great experience!”
About: I am your pet sitting solution! Your pets are my passion. I am finally doing what I love! Now that I work out of my home I am able to service my repeat clients needs every day of the week around the clock. I am currently accepting new clients due to our indoor and outdoor spaces expanding. One of the most difficult things to do is dropping your furry friends off to an unknown place with a handler they have no history with. That is why I begin with a Meet and Greet to make sure I am the right fit. Typically I become your best friend's second best friend instantly. * Please be sure to book well in advance on school vacations and summer break. In addition, we are one of the few pet sitters that accept emergency drop offs! At my place in Taunton, I have a large fenced in play area. Upon entering the fenced in area there is two gates for security and a large gate on the opposite end for quick access and safety. The large play area is often split into two when we have smaller dogs. Daily activities do not just include playing in the yard, your fur baby can expect to go on structured walks, and depending on the weather we even take them hiking! I also work one on one with the dogs as they particularly enjoy the mental stimulation when working on commands. We love strengthening your dogs rules and commands while they stay with us. Safety is the number one priority that is why we begin with a Meet and Greet. Please reach out with any safety questions. Your Pet Deserves the Best.

About: We first adopted a 12 year old dog from the shelter and at the age of 17, we had to put him down. It broke our hearts and decided to adopt others in his (Juno) memory. My husband and I have adopted 5 dogs since then and they are a great pack. We have a large yard and doggy door so they can come and go as they please. They go for walks and they're very well mannered, socialized dogs. I graduated from Animal Behavior College in May 2017 and train dogs as well and I'd be able to help with training if needed. We've been fostering dogs for over 5 years and love knowing we're helping them become socialized and able to find them forever homes.
“Iliandra was fantastic. She sent me updates throughout the day and my puppy was actually smiling. I forgot to pack his food and she cooked chicken for him. Above and beyond service. Thank you!”
About: I have been taking care of animals big and small for as long as I can remember! When I was in my early teens I started pet sitting, and once I was 18 I began working on local horse farms; mucking stalls, and learning as much as I could along the way. I take pride in knowing I am knowledgeable and dependable; I’ve fulfilled duties as grand as farm/kennel sitting- (meticulous care; maintaining medicine and feed schedules, cleaning services, turn in and out, organization of multiple and large quantity of animals at a time) …. I’ve spent time with all different types of personalities of all different species; aggressive ankle biters to couch potato gentle giants. Over the past decade and a half I have enjoyed the company of horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, pigs, cattle, dogs, cats, birds and reptiles. I love animals and I love providing quality care. I am observant and trustworthy- feel free to ask me anything!! I would like to make this more than part time! I have a very flexible schedule as of lately with no obligations aside from being busy a few early mornings out of the week; as I do work on a farm still as needed. Shoot me a message and let’s talk scheduling! I have a private backyard, not fenced in but I am more than vigilant and always have time and patience for leash walks and hikes, and leashed/supervised backyard shenanigans. Whatever you and your animal are comfortable with; we will make it happen and I can accommodate accordingly.
“tater came back for a second day and had a blast! amanda was great with sending pictures throughout the day! tater ends up being so tired when he gets home from all the playing, would recommend her to everyone!”
About: I have taken care of and have had my own pets for over 30 years. I have a fenced in backyard, along with trails in a wooded area on my property that make it a great adventure for all pets. I work part-time taking care of animals and I'm always available to give your animals the attention they deserve. I am available most days and for overnight care. I would like to especially focus on families with friendly, small breeds that are looking for a safe place to shelter their pet. I have two friendly pugs that make a great social environment for your dogs. There are many gates/doors in the home that can be used to separate and make sure all dogs feel safe when needed.
About: I have been around animals all my life . I love to play and walk them . I treat them like my own children ❤️ Any time,I am a bus driver . I am free all summer. I am very flexible. I have a 12 year old daughter. And a shih tzu named Rosco. Very loving home . I am on first floor love to go for walks . Your pet will be very much loved and welcomed in my home
“Elaine is an incredibly gifted woman regarding dog training. She is a gem. Our 4-month-old puppy spent two full days at her doggie day care and loved it. She commands attention from all dogs, small and large, and it felt so safe to leave our pup with her. She updated us with several photos of our pup’s activities throughout each day. She also reinforced some of his already learned techniques and taught him more. Her training advice helped us rewardingly. We will definitely return!! Thank you, Elaine!!”
“Serena took great care of Zuko and kept us updated throughout the day with cute pictures and sweet praise for his good behavior. She was easy to work with and communicated very well from request to pickup.”
“We were visiting Florida from NY and needed a dog sitter for half the day. My pup was well taken care of and Linda sent me lots of pictures. I would definitely use her again if I was in the area. Thank you, Linda!!!”
About: My partner and I have been caring for animals from bunnies to horses for our entire lives. Friends and family have relied and continue to rely on us to walk, feed, and board their pets. We do this because we love the companionship pups! Pets will be carefully looked after by my partner and I. They’ll be preoccupied daily with loads of activities! Parents are welcome to pictures/videos while they’re away. Your pets will have access to food/water, furniture, toys, undivided attention and unconditional love! Our dogs start the day by zooming and playing in our fully fenced in yard. Throughout the day we practice commands and do various activities. Here, we love dog puzzles and mentally and physically stimulating activities! Our house is pet friendly with plenty of space to play inside or out, depending on the weather. We also have pets of our own, who are very high energy and playful! We prefer gradual introductions to keep everyone calm and safe so your dogs will not meet ours during initial meet and greets. They’ll likely only meet ours if they stay multiple times or for more than 3 days. Entering a new environment or being cared for by someone new can be stressful for pets so we pay close attention to how each pet responds and acts and make sure to cater according to their individual needs, giving them space or activities as needed. Your pet will be loved, safe, and well cared for while they are here!
“Our dog Ori stayed with Kristen for doggy daycare and had a blast! We got picture and video updates throughout the day, and Ori was happy when we picked her up and fell right to sleep once we got home!”
“Olivia was great with making my little dog Layla comfortable. She took special care in keeping her separated from her larger dogs. Layla fit right in with her children, had a fun day and fell asleep on the ride home. I would schedule with Olivia again”
About: I love to pet sit and walk dogs, as well as house sit. 🏡🪴 I have been doing this for quite a few years now, all through college and into my adult career, with experience at several different homes/with several different pets. I work a hybrid/remote schedule with flexibility to stay at your home to watch your pets overnight. I have experience with reactive dogs, two and three dogs at a time, cats, small animals such as guinea pigs, and elderly dogs, and I can provide references if you’d like. I treat your pets and your home like they are my own! I have a hybrid/remote schedule at my current full-time job in higher education, which allows some flexibility in terms of working location during the week and pet sitting after work and on the weekends as well. In your home, I follow the routine of your pet(s) just as you do, and I treat your home with respect, leaving everything as I found it.
About: I have always been an animal-lover. Growing up we rescued and raised all types of animals ranging from dogs and cats to birds and reptiles! My wife and I currently own dogs and cats (My social media features more of them than of myself.) I am very detail-oriented, follow instructions well, and understand what animals need. I am open to caring for dogs and cats of any age/ temperament - and our animals have gotten along with every animal they have encountered. My availability is: Anytime! I have never met an animal I didn't love and look forward to meeting yours! I currently work remotely and have a very open schedule. I am home most of the week and always available. Your animals would receive a lot of attention and be well cared for! We do not have a yard, but there is a dog park within walking distance from our apartment. We are on the 1st floor and have direct exterior access, so drop-off/ pick-up and potty breaks are a breeze! I have no problem coming to a client's home with adequate instructions for care!

“Margaret is an exceptional service dog. She communicated effectively with me and diligently followed my instructions for my English bulldog, who is my daughter. Her performance was truly remarkable, and I will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always cared for them from walks to feeding to just playing. I know how to care for them and they trust me. I can work every weekday at pretty much anytime, though afternoons are preferred as those are the times most often available for me. I can also help multiple times a day as needed.

About: BOOK 7 NIGHTS AND GET YOUR 8th NIGHT FREE!!! (On your first stay only) I WILL ONLY BE ACCEPTING DOGS 30lbs AND UNDER FOR THE SAFETY OF MY OWN SMALL PETS. (Although I will make larger size exceptions for elderly lazy pups ❤️) Hello and thanks for considering me for your pet sitter! Your pet will enjoy all the pleasures of home and more! We are a loving, pet friendly family that any pet would love to be part of (even if it's only for a short time). My name is Breanna and I have had animals my whole life and simply adore being around them. I enjoyed being with them so much that I opened my own grooming salon several years back and am still enjoying it today. I thought that I could help my fluffy friends even more by letting them stay with me rather then those terrible kennels so they too could enjoy their vacations! Your pets will be treated like part of the family and if you choose, I can offer grooming services as well. We are more then happy to take in older dogs as well as younger and they are always guaranteed a warm, soft place to sleep. Summer is no problem either as there is AC so your pet will be totally comfortable at all times. Does your dog need medications? If so no problem, just tell me what to do and your pet will be taken care of. I do have an 11yr old and a 17yr old so your dog must be ok with kids. We also have two small dogs who are very friendly so your dog must be ok with other pets as well. I am pet cpr and first aid certified through the Red Cross and also a certified pet groomer. If this sounds like a home you'd like to let your pets visit while you are away i would be more then happy to meet you and set up a meet and greet! I hope to hear from you! Note: At this time I’m unable to accommodate pitbulls and German shepherds. Sorry for any inconvenience! I’m a self employed, work from home mom so it’s very easy for me to care for your pets. I make my own schedule and absolutely love what I do. Having extra pups in the house is a huge bonus for me because I’m a huge animal person! I love taking the pups outside into the back yard or for a walk through the golf course we live on. I have two wonderful fur babies to keep your pets company. When inside your pets will enjoy a “part of the family” life style with lots of love, cuddles and lounging on the couch.
About: I’ve always had a dog by my side since i was born, i always make sure my dog gets out at-least once a week for a long nature walk and swim if the weather allows. I’m pretty good when it comes to puppies too! I am now free most days of the week for any type of services that you may desire at any time for the most part! I can easily crate a dog is necessary and/or needed, i usually am pretty good at reading animal body language to help better understand them and notice patterns quickly!
“Candi has been such a blessing to our family. She communicates before and after each walk, sends multiple pictures, and is very kind and reliable. She was open to helping train our 1yr old rescue dog and provides much feedback regarding their progress. We are comfortable with Candi driving our dog to the local walking trail since our neighborhood doesn't have sidewalks. Candi is an asset to Rover and I know our pup agrees.”
About: I’ve just recently moved back home from Scotland after being there for about 7 years. While there I did use rover as a part time job while finishing my Veterinary Medicine degree. I’m happy to announce I graduated in 2024 and have been a practicing vet since. I love learning from the pets I sit because every time personality is different and each experience can give me so much. I’m happy to cater to whatever you pet needs! I have a varying schedule throughout the week. I work most week days with various start times but most end times at 7.30pm. I’m happy to help owners organize with me what works best for them though! I do not take safety lightly and am happy to cater to whatever needs are required by the owner. I do have family pets at home who don’t like strangers so unfortunately I will not be allowing anyone to be boarded at my house.

During walks, I stay alert and am aware of my surroundings, including nearby animals or potential hazards, to ensure your dog remains safe at all times.
“Cassandra is amazing my dog cannon always runs to the door when he here’s my buzzer he’s picky to on who walks him but when I bring up cassandras name when I get home from work he gets excited so I know he had a good walk with her”
About: I've provided administration of medicine to cats as well as given fluids thru an IV and feedings thru a feeding tube. Would love to check on your pets or walk your dog! I'm working from home and am looking for part time jobs during the week or weekend. Would love to help out as needed whether it be vacations or one time visits. I will be providing service within your home and will not be boarding animals. I have a cat and she doesn't welcome other pets! I look forward to being available for your needs!
About: I grew up dog sitting for my neighbors, friends, and cousins as I've always had a known strong passion for animals my whole life. I currently have an older Chihuahua, so I understand how to be extremely gentle, patient, and attentive to comfort, slower movement, and health needs. I also have a young, very active Yorkie that I personally trained to do tricks like speak, play dead, and give paw, along with other basic obedience skills. This has given me experience with consistency, positive reinforcement, and keeping energetic dogs mentally stimulated. I’m comfortable balancing both calm, gentle care for senior pets and structured, engaging attention for younger, active dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already work part time dog walking with a professional company, so I’m around animals regularly and used to handling different personalities and energy levels. I’m available all days of the week which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet sitting, walks, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I care for pets in a safe, calm, and structured environment. At my home, I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and two friendly dogs that can provide company if your pet is comfortable around others. I also have a large, comfy crate available if a dog needs their own quiet space to relax or rest. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own environment while maintaining their normal routine. I make sure they are safe, supervised, and given plenty of attention, including walks, playtime, feeding, and any specific care instructions provided. My goal is always to keep pets feeling secure, cared for, and stress-free whether they’re in my home or theirs.
About: What sets me apart is my dedicated care, ensuring pup safety and happiness! I'm skilled in handling various breeds and temperaments, providing reliable service with passion and fun! I love going on walks - with a cute puppy by my side, and maybe a frisbee to throw! I've experienced pooch-care while growing up and at shelters! Check out my calendar, I am open and available! Let's chat to set up a date and time that works best for you and your furry friends! Caring for pets in either my own or someone else's home involves several key practices: 1. Safety and Comfort: Ensuring the environment is safe and comfortable for the pet, with secure areas and appropriate amenities. 2. Routine Care: Providing regular feeding, watering, and bathroom breaks according to the pet's schedule and needs. 3. Exercise and Play: Engaging pets in physical activities and playtime to keep them active and entertained. 4. Medical Attention: Monitoring the pet's health, administering medications if needed, and being attentive to any signs of distress or illness. 5. Affection and Attention (My favorite!): Offering companionship, cuddles, and positive interaction to make the pet feel loved and cared for. 6. Communication: Keeping pet owners informed about their pet's well-being through updates and photos, ensuring transparency and peace of mind. By following these practices, I aim to provide a nurturing and secure environment that meets both the physical and emotional needs of the pets entrusted to my care.

“This is my second time booking with Ciara and she continues to go above and beyond! Pipa is a nervous girl especially around strangers but Ciara assured that everything would be okay during her stay and it was! Within a few hours Pipa was comfortable and cuddled up with her on the couch! Ciara sends plenty of updates (pictures, videos) and responds quickly if you need accommodations made. Pipa absolutely enjoys her time with Ciara and made a new friend with her puppy! We will definitely continue to rebook!”
“Casey, Phil and their dog Chloe were absolutely fantastic with Penny, our 6 month old golden retriever puppy, for a week long stay. They sent us daily pictures and updates about how Penny was doing which really took the stress out of leaving her for the first time. They were patient at our meet and greet ahead of her stay and made sure to answer any and all of our questions. Would highly recommend them and we will absolutely be using them again in the future!”
“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”
“Jonathan & Amy were awesome! Phoenix had so much fun there. We got tons of pictures showing her playing and enjoying herself. I felt very comfortable leaving here there and would highly recommend them to anyone needing this service. Now I know I have a "go to" for the next time.”
“Jenna and Michael were wonderful. We are also sitters on Rover and probably have higher than average standards for our babygirl Sadie (~60 lb rescue). We first did a meet and greet and from the moment we meant them we knew they were good people. We had already meet four other sitters at this point and were starting to feel hopeless. Jenna and Michael were warm, and lovely from the start. Their home is spacious, their yard is BIG, and their own pup, Chase is adorable! Sadie got lots of exercise playing with Chase and going on walks. I was worried that Sadie would taunt their chickens the entire time (which she probably did) but they handled it with evident experience around this challenge. We would happily book with them again. Even though we had to drive 45 minutes to them, it was 100% worth it. Thank you, Jenna, Michael, and Chase.”
“We had an excellent experience with Lakshmi and Shiva as dog sitters for our beloved Leo. They, along with their sweet dog Bruno, provided top-notch care for Leo during our two-week absence. We received regular videos of Leo enjoying his time, and it was evident that he had a fantastic vacation of his own. We highly recommend Lakshmi and Shiva for anyone in need of trustworthy and caring dog sitters. Leo was in great hands, and we couldn't be happier with their service!”
“Blaine did a Great Job watching my dog for 2 days! I was a little worried about Blaine’s dogs, because my dog is very picky about her dog-friends. But Blaine’s dogs were great with my dog. I think the visit helped my dog with her hesitation about interacting with other dogs. Blaine was diligent in following our directions about our dog’s food. He also sent us lots of photos. I guess the best compliment is that my dog was having such a good time, that she seemed like she wanted to stay. LOL”

“Sarah and Ben went above and beyond while watching our dog. He celebrated his birthday with them and they send us several pictures and spoiled him with treats. Great communication, easy pick up and drop off, and trust knowing our boy is in great hands.”
“Cheyenne was amazing! My boy Leroy is a classic Velcro dog. He thinks he’s a person, so he always has to be with his human pack. Cheyenne made sure he was included in everything, and sent the cutest pictures that both cracked me up and made me miss him even more while I was gone. I felt so relieved and comfortable, knowing she was taking such good care of him. Even though we just met her, they totally clicked on their meet and greet so I knew my baby boy was in good hands.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Namrata! She was always in touch, very responsive, and regularly sent us photos and updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our dog had an amazing time in the backyard - she absolutely loves playing outside, especially when there’s lots of snow, and it was clear she was happy and well cared for. We truly appreciate the attention and care Namrata gave her and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“I really enjoyed hosting my Odie at your house, he sent me a picture of him happy, and when I went to pick him up he showed that he had really liked them, saying goodbye to them many times showing that he had been very well treated, if I need him again that's where I would like to leave him again. Thank you”
“Alani was absolutely wonderful! From being willing to do a compatibility meetup beforehand to sending periodic updates and photos throughout Kodi’s stay - she was awesome and I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Linda was a great sitter for Peanut. Communication was great and sent photos. You can tell that they care about their four legged guests. Linda, thank you for taking care of our girl.”
“Michele is amazing! She took such good care of our guy over the Christmas holiday while we traveled out of state. She even got him his own stocking ☺️ She was great with communication and sending updates / photos! Her home is welcoming and a perfect place for any dog! We look forward to using her again.”
“Sunny is our go-to for the past 3-4 years whenever we need to board Lucky. Every time Lucky went straight into their house without even looking back at us. He is definitely spoiled when staying with them. We really would wish to continually have Sunny to watch for Lucky, but sadly we are relocating to the west coast. Lucky will miss them so much!”
“Michele and John were such great hosts to Lacey while I was away!! Lacey loved playing with all of their dogs and having a big yard to run in. They sent me lots of pictures and updates, which definitely made it easier to be away from her knowing she was in such great care. When I picked Lacey up she was happy and tired, I think even a little sad to go home :) I'll definitely book another Vacay with Michele and John in the future!!”
“ALLYSSAH is amazing. I felt so confident and at peace having Daisy stay with her. She also accommodated us last minute and picked Daisy up and dropped off. highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs and pets my whole life, and today I have my own bulldog, Max, who I care for every day. I’m comfortable with the range of breeds and personalities. I have experience with basic obedience training, and I work in a pharmacy, so I’m detail oriented and comfortable with medication’s if your dog needs any. I like to keep pups on a consistent routine, plenty of walks and attention, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos so you know your dog is happy and well taken care of. Every dog gets the same love and care I give my own. I work full-time on weekdays, so I’m best available for walks and drop offs on weekdays after 3 PM, and I’m open for boarding on weekends. My schedule is consistent so you can count on reliable care during those windows. I have a fully fenced in backyard where dogs can complain and get plenty of exercise safely. My home is secure both inside and out, so pets are never able to wander off or get into anything they shouldn’t. I keep a close eye on any dog in my care and make sure they always have a safe, comfortable space, whether they’re playing outside or relaxing indoors.
