“Nicole and her family are awesome!!!!! Wish I could give more than 5 stars. Very loving and attentive, especially with us having a very high energy husky. Will highly recommend to anyone and everyone”

“Steph couldn’t have been any more perfect for our dog, Remy! It was the first time we left a pet with a non-family member but I felt completely comfortable. Steph even has a doggie-sofa in her living area. I could tell from our first meet and greet that she was in tune with dog behavior. Her dogs are the sweetest hosts too! When we picked up Remy, I could just tell that she had a wonderful weekend. I really appreciate having a reliable, loving place to take Remy when needed.”

“Danielle has done a wonderful job of caring for my dog, Hazel. She was very flexible with my schedule changing last minute, and that made things much easier for me. And the most important part - my very anxious dog came back to me happy and relaxed, not at all stressed from her time away. I'd definitely recommend Danielle and will book with her again.”

“This was my first time using Roover and I can say Jessica surpassed my expectations for a sitter. I was hesitant to leave our puppy with just anyone, but after meeting Jessica I knew he was in good hands. I look forward to using her in the future.”
“Marissa is extremely caring and flexible and treats the dogs she watches like family! I consider her house to be a second home for my dog. Unlike a kennel I always know Marissa will be there to snuggle and play with the dogs and the dogs will get tons of time to play together.”

“My 4 pound malti-poo stayed with Dorothy for 2 nights. I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent pictures and was very calm and loving towards him. I highly recommend!”

“Alex did an amazing job with my boys! I could tell from their smiling faces that they were being loved and well taken care of. I received prompt updates and pictures of them having a good time. He definitely made my trip worry free! I look forward to booking him again! Thanks again!”

“Lisa was great! Sent videos and they were able to make friends! Our boys came back home happy and tired. Will definitely use again and recommend others! 🐾🐶🐾”

“Shipra took good care of our dog. She walked and played with him. Her dog Trevor is very nice and well behaved. My dog is tiny but got along really well with him. I would love to keep my dog with her again!”

“We are so happy we found Andrew! He is very responsive and so good at what he does. We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with him for almost a week, and he sent many updates the entire time. Will definitely be booking again soon - thank you so much!”

“Sarah was great. My dog looked right at home & had lots of fun & snuggles. Sent great pics/updates. & was able to accommodate a last minute extra night due to flight delay. Def recommend!”

“Shanikki was very sweet, my dog Ava adjusted very well. She worked well with us, she even meet with us ahead of time to meet Ava. I will be definitely using Shanikki again.”


“Keiwana and her gorgeous family took amazing care of our 4 month old puppy Rosie. They were so kind and patient - Rosie made more than a few mistakes but they were so understanding and graceful about it. Keiwana also sent us so many great pictures of Rosie throughout the weekend! Rosie made some new friends with their sweet dog Bailey and two little girls, and she didn’t want to leave when we came to get her! (but when we did get back home, she was so tired and napped like an angel). We would most definitely use them again (but maybe when Rosie’s older so their beautiful house doesn’t get any more puppy damage!!) Thank you SO MUCH to Keiwana & family!!”

“She had done greet with our dog lili she is about a year and six months old no issues at all very knowledgeable of dogs in their situations as well as understanding their behavior with no issues she took care of my dog and my dog played with her dog so now my dog has a friend they went to the park together and everything and she bought my dog back, clean safe and sound no issues Thank you very much once again for watching her for the five days. It’s been great. We definitely use her again just for dog play dates. Also she’s amazing. Don’t hesitate.”

“What an amazing experience for my dogs! From the moment I first spoke to Theresa to the moment we picked our dogs up, I knew this was an exceptional experience. Theresa goes above and beyond to make your pet feel comfortable while they are away from home. She customized their feeding, treats, and even their lounge time. It’s so hard to know if someone will love your pet like you do, and no question Theresa does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter while they are away!”

“Emily and Patrick were so great with my dog, Smiley! They were so flexible when plans went awry and the updates were so sweet. It was great seeing Smiley and Biscuit together throughout the stay and I knew my dog was safe and happy.”

“Zola had a great time with Nathalie and her dog Nico for four nights. Nathalie was very communicative and flexible when I needed to change drop-off last minute. Zola came back happy and well taken care of - and I look forward to future doggy dates. Thanks again for everything, Nathalie!”

“Rich is an amazing sitter! He was very nice and easy to talk to. He kept us updated and sent pictures of how our pup was doing. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Luna was being taken care of. I would definitely recommend using Rich as a sitter!”

“Shannon is great to work with! My pup loved her and her home. She sent lots of cute pictures and updates throughout the stay. Excellent communication. We're looking forward to our next stay!”

“April was the BEST! She was super accommodating and sweet with Yani. Sent pictures and regular updates. She was thorough with Yani’s care and super responsive. Her sweet fur baby, Penelope and Yani got along so well making the experience more of a play date than boarding. Definitely reaching out when we have our next trip and I would highly recommend!”

“As always Maria is the BEST! Goes above and beyond. So kind and thoughtful and most of all my fur baby loves her. Makes me feel very comfortable while traveling as often as I have been lately! Highly recommend!”


“This was the second time we've hired Lisa to take care of our cats while we were gone. We got stuck in the UK because of covid, and Lisa was so flexible, helpful, and communicative when we needed to add more days super last minute because we wouldn't be able to get home when we thought. It took a big weight off of our shoulders. Plus, she takes amazing photos. Not too far in to the trip, getting a notification that the check in was complete was a highlight of our day because we got to see new pictures of our cats. Even better, our cats love her! Lisa is fantastic.”

“Alexis was tremendous. He left thorough review cards, lots of pictures, and was very communicative throughout his drop-ins. He was very flexible through a home-alarm difficulty, was very sweet to our cats, and we cannot recommend him enough. Please consider utilizing Alexis for your home visits!”

“Marissa was great with my cat Freya. She sent lots of good pictures, didn't hesitate to contact me when she had questions about caring for my cat, and she was able to find time in her schedule to rebook last second for a few more days when my flights got canceled. It's clear Marissa is really dedicated and enjoys looking after pets. I'd certainly book her again if I need another sitter in the future. Thanks.”

“Annie was great with our girls. She provided prompt updates and cute pictures. We came home to our house just how we left it. We would highly recommend her!”

About: Animals have been in my family for as long as I could remember! When it was my time to take care of them, I loved them till my heart broke. I took care of my first ever pet fish, Rudolph, in elementary school till his last moments of life, the fish life can be simple but the work put into the fishes care can help create a fun and relaxing environment. After Rudolph, I have the pleasure of having the family dog Angel. A lovely pit bull mix, who made being fun and rambunctious seem to be the best characteristics in life. Later when I started high school, I had my first cat Lucy, who lived for a very long time until my junior year in college. I understood that cats are very laid-back, however I also understood that each cat has a unique personality, and like humans, take some time to see their personality. Very recently I take care of 2 cats with my mom named Rambo and Misty, we have had these kittens turned cats for a year and they still show me more and more how each cat is unique. I take care of these cats by providing a space of care, most people may think that cats are easy animals because they take care of themselves, but I realize that cats need to be taken care of as well in ways of having someone to play with, to having someone to cuddle with to having someone clean their litter box every day. My motto with animals is that, they should be treated with the same respect of humans. They should receive similar care and loving that we give to humans because of how much they do for us. And with my experience I have seen plenty of animals and I am always open to learning more about them. I have recently graduated from undergrad at McDaniel so as I am finding my footing in the world I currently strive to care for animals in my free time. With that I currently take care of my 2 cats almost every other hour, to feed them or to provide them cuddles and pets and when they need food or clean water bowls, I ensure they are done with integrity. I hope with the chance of taking care of your pets, I will have a new weekly routine. As mentioned, with my 2 cats, I let them get to know me in ways that can establish a sense of trust within me. Sticking to the daily routine of my client can help that process stick to where we can possibly make new connections similar to best friends creating a handshake to show the world their unique relationship, I would strive to do the same with your pets. When pets are seeing someone new they are nervous like humans, and if I can make sure when they see me, they can relax and possibly have fun I have done my job as a sitter, or a walker!
About: Having had dogs my entire life, I've gained invaluable experience caring for both energetic puppies and cherished senior dogs. This lifelong passion has equipped me with the skills to meet their unique needs, whether it’s providing gentle playtime or thoughtful care for older companions. With plenty of free time on my hands, I’m dedicated to offering overnight stays, long walks, regular check-ins, and lots of playtime, ensuring your furry friend feels loved and engaged while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer my dog walking services during the afternoons, after 2 PM, and some mornings. This schedule allows me to accommodate your needs, whether you require a mid-day stroll or an early morning play session. I’m committed to providing personalized care and attention to your dog, ensuring they get the exercise and companionship they deserve while you’re busy. Caring for pets in a client's home requires a thoughtful and attentive approach. I prioritize maintaining their routines to ensure minimal disruption, whether it's feeding schedules, exercise, or playtime. I make sure to keep their environment safe and comfortable, providing plenty of affection and stimulation. Regular check-ins allow me to monitor their well-being, and I’m attentive to any special needs they might have. Additionally, I respect the home by maintaining cleanliness and following any specific instructions from the client, creating a positive experience for both the pets and their owners.

“Britney is very responsive and took wonderful care of my two cats while we were away. One of my little guys needs meds administered and I received informative updates on how they both were behaving and she made sure to note any issues. I will definitely book with Britney again!”


“Asia took care of my cat Amora for a few days. I booked a little last minute, but communication was smooth the whole time. She sent me regular updates and was super understanding when I ran a bit late. My cat was in good hands, she’s a great sitter!”


“Lina was amazing with my cat! She sent tons of updates, pictures, and videos. It was great knowing my cat was in good hands while I was away. I highly recommend her for you next sitter! Thanks Lina! 😊”

About: I’m Dan and I love dogs. I’ve always had a K-9 companion and love the company dogs provide. Walks, fresh air and playtime are things I like just as dogs do. I’m caring, loving, and respectful and always treat others the way I want to be treated. I’ve had a dog all throughout my life and have experience caring for animals of different sizes, breeds, and personalities! I have the most experience with Black Labradors, German Shepherds and Beagles, but would care for any pup. I understand how hard it is to be away from your pup so I’ll be in consistent communication, sending photo and text updates so you know how much fun your pup is having in my care. I have a flexible schedule so I can provide the perfect amount of love, activity, and play time in the care of your pup! I can’t wait to get to know you and your dog, creating a communicative, kind, and respectful working relationship. I will provide the same love, care and attention that I would provide my own dog to yours. It’s in my nature to go the extra mile to go above and beyond to make your dog feel like they’re at home! When I’m not spending time with animals, I spend my time working full-time at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore. I love heading to the gym, reading, playing video games, and spending time with my family. Even though I do work full-time, this will not get in the way of providing an excellent stay for your K-9 companion. I am very flexible and accommodating in order to provide the best possible care for your K-9 friend. I live in an apartment complex in the Rodger's Forge near Towson University in Maryland. Our neighborhood is very green, dog-friendly and wide open for dogs to frolic, play, and jump! The neighborhood is a great fit for any pup! When booking for my services, please keep in contact with me and let me know the dates you wish to have you’re Pup stay over. Once you've contacted me, please let me know a best possible date and time to set up a "Meet and Greet", if needed. Once I accept a booking request, please respond within 24 hours so I can keep my schedule up to date. Please provide clear care instructions for your dog, so I can provide the best possible stay for them. Also, if you have any questions at all regarding my services or any accommodations during you’re Pups stay, please feel free to reach out to me at anytime. I look forward to meeting you and you’re K-9 Companion and hope to build long term relationships and provide outstanding services for both you and you’re Pup! *Please note: Upon picking up your pet, please make sure you have all the items you brought with your pet. I am not responsible for any items left behind. If an item is left behind, it must be picked up within 72 hours. After 72 hours, it will be discarded. Thank You! I work full-time, however I can still take your dog for a brisk walk in the morning and evening. I am off on the weekends so your dog will have plenty of exercise and play time. I have fenced dog park right behind my apartment where your day can be active and interact with other dogs from the neighborhood. I can also crate your dog if necessary.

“Sean and his partner Paulina were quick to respond to all messages and showed up on time, both to our meet and greet and to all three cat-sitting sessions while we were out of town. Our two babies were well fed and watered, and the more social one got some attention and play from Paulina too. The shy guy had a cleaned litter box to use when he came out of hiding after they left, but before that they even watered the flower baskets on our porch as a heat wave was starting. Thanks again Sean and Paulina!”


“Crissy did a great job taking care of my cat, including her new medication. Harri was in great spirits when I got home. She was thorough and left the house neat. Thank you!!!”


“Sam took wonderful care of our two kitties and we so appreciated the detailed updates and cute photos she provided - they brought us smiles and peace of mind while we were away!”

“Poppy gets excited to get to Crissy's house and enjoys her time with Dublin. Crissy is flexible on timing when I've bumped into conflicts, and adjusting recurring days.”

“Emily was amazing! We did a meet and greet a few days before hand and then on the actual day, my dog remembered her and was so excited to be back. I was worried because he’s a bit of a Velcro dog but Emily said he slept behind her while she worked and spent some time outside with her dog as well playing. 10/10, I will book Emily and Patrick next time I need a sitter.”

“I was very pleased! Ms Lisa was very pleasant and kind. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. She made sure I received updates throughout her time with my Halo. I will definitely be using her again.”

“Andrew is absolutely Amazing! Not only did he make my husband and I feel extremely comfortable leaving our baby, she had the time of her life! We will continue rebooking him weekly!”

About: Owner of one sweet large dog and two cats. More than 10 years of experience taking care of animals. Graduate student with flexible schedules and lots of love for many fur babies. My parents are with me right now so extra hands on deck and almost companion all day for your pets. I’m a graduate student with flexible schedules. I enjoy playing and walking with animals for relaxation. I live in a neighborhood that’s very great for dog walking. I have a fenced yard, very friendly dog and cats. Enough space indoors for playing too. I have a car hammock for dog to sit comfortably in the back seat and seatbelt for them, if we need to go take a ride.
About: I come from a Family of Farmers. I grew up taking care of Pets My entire life. During Covid I took in unwanted Dogs and Cats in My Community who could no longer afford to be taken care of by their owners and successfully re-homed them. I am now an Advocate for unwanted and stray animals. I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule that can accommodate Regular Business Hours or Untraditional Hours per the needs of Your Fur Baby. I have a 25+ Years of Experience in Emergency Medicine working both in the Hospital as well as Patients Homes. Your Fur Baby will be treated with Dignity, Respect as well as Your Home and have an awesome interactive experience with Me. I do not Drink or Smoke and will always go the extra mile to Honor Your Home.
About: With 15 years of pet ownership, I pride myself on being patient, reliable, and communicative. I'm a pet owner too, so I know how important it is to stick to your pet's routine and send plenty of updates so you can relax. As a graduate student, I have a very flexible schedule. My campus is only a 10-minute drive away, which means I can easily come home to check on your pet every 2-4 hours, or as often as needed. My neighborhood has plenty of green spaces and safe areas, perfect for long walks and playtime. I only take on one boarding client at a time, which could include two dogs per board if they come from the same client. My home features a secure, fenced-in backyard with plenty of grass, giving your pet a safe space to play and take comfortable potty breaks. I have a friendly, 5-year-old Siberian Husky who loves making new friends. For everyone's safety, he is neutered and kept completely up-to-date on all vaccinations and routine care. I also have an XL dog crate available for your dog's use if that is part of their normal routine.
About: While new to pet sitting, I am not new to loving and caring for friends and family dogs. I’ve been a volunteer at local animal shelters in the past and have experience with a variety of dogs - young and old, different breeds, behaviors, etc. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and when I adopted my boxer/beagle mix, Sasha, from the shelter at two years old, she became my greatest teacher, showing me how to love deeply, be patient, and make the tough calls that come with being a devoted pet parent. I have experience caring for dogs at every life stage, from bouncy puppies to sweet seniors. Special food requirements? Daily meds? I’ve got it covered. I pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality ... some thrive on extra snuggles, others prefer long walks, backyard playtime, or peaceful naps in the sun on the deck. I think it’s important to set up a meet-and-greet with new clients. It’s the best way for us to see if we’re a good match and to go over your pet-care needs in person. It’s also a great opportunity to get all those questions answered, and chatting face-to-face just makes things smoother. And honestly, meeting a new pup is the best part! At the end of the day, we know who’s really in charge: the dogs. Our job is to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and surrounded by love. I work from home and have the flexibility to play in the backyard, take walks, and provide personalized care as needed. In the last year I became especially skilled at taking care of our senior dog so am ready to provide any specialty care if needed. I have a fenced yard and quiet neighborhood with walkable sidewalks and lots of opportunities for sniffing out the perfect spots. No other pets or children in my home.

“They were amazing! Super easy to work with. The dogs had a lot of fun and I felt very comfortable leaving them with someone else for the first time. I got pictures throughout the day and there was plenty of communication. Highly recommend these pet lovers.”

About: My wife and I grew up loving and taking care of our family pets and as adults we have/had cats, dogs, leopard gecko's, chinchilla and rats. With years of experience, we are both comfortable with whatever your pets needs are from, medications, eating and walking schedules, etc. We know there is nothing more important than trusting someone to take care of our furry family members. Both of us work from home so we can meet any schedule needs your dog may have. We have a lot of time for walks, backyard play, snuggles, etc. We have a good sized fenced in backyard to run and play in and plenty of sidewalks to walk. We treat all animals as if they're our own whether it's in your home or ours. We will make sure your pets are provided with many opportunities to potty, play, snuggle, etc..
“Jordan is absolutely fantastic! I wanted to give my parents a day off while they watched my 11 month old for the week and Jordan was the perfect person to do so. My puppy has separation anxiety and my mom said he didn’t even notice her leave he was so excited to spend the day with Jordan and Biscuit. It was such a relief knowing he was well cared for and having a great time. He even fell asleep cuddled up with Jordan! Jordan sent so many pictures and was just the sweetest from the first moment we got in contact with each other! I’ve already booked her again :) I highly recommend going with Jordan!!!”

“Bella had a great day with Makhayla! She sent pics throughout the day and I received constant updates. It put my dog mom heart at ease knowing she was taken care of. Thanks so much!!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs since I was a child. Neighbors and friends have always trusted me to look after their pets, knowing the genuine care and affection I provide. Over the years, I decided to turn this passion into a meaningful part of my life. With over 10 years of experience, caring for pets has become more than a job—it is truly my passion. I also have experience training puppies at home, helping them develop good habits and positive behaviors from an early age. I understand that leaving your pet can be difficult, but you can feel confident knowing they will receive the love, attention, and dedication they deserve. I ensure my home is a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment—your pet’s home away from home. Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule to ensure timely feeding, regular walks, dedicated playtime, and close observation of each pet’s behavior. On a weekly basis, I carry out hygiene tasks, check supplies, and monitor overall well-being. I focus on maintaining consistency, as it helps reduce stress and supports each pet’s health and happiness. “I provide personalized pet care in both my home and my client’s home, always following each pet’s routine, including feeding, exercise, and any special needs. In my home, I offer a safe, secure, and pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced yard to ensure dogs can play safely. In a client’s home, I maintain their routine to reduce stress and ensure comfort. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication with regular updates to owners.”
“Leydi was extremely responsive and caring for our young puppy. Remy made a friend in Leydi’s puppy Rocky and the two played all day. When she came home she was tired out. We will not hesitate to use Leydi again for doggie daycare!”

“We were in town for the day and were so lucky to find Meredith and Kevin for doggy daycare. Our dogs had a great time and came back happpy and tired with zero stress. Thank you”

About: I have been a dog lover my entire life, but after getting my first dog at 18 I decided to become a professional dog lover. I have worked at boarding kennels, vet clinics and shelters and for the last 8 years have owned and operated a training company where we have offered in home care for a variety of pets. I love working with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I love even more getting to make them a part of my extended family. Pet care is our routine around here! Aside from running our human kiddo to school, my entire days revolve around the needs of the dogs in our home. We set aside time for playtime in the yard, cuddles on the couch, and training time for pups booked through my training company. I have a fully fenced yard with a secondary fenced space for smaller dogs. We have 3 resident dogs who are all friendly and playful, and grumpy old man cat who mostly avoids the dogs. Guest pups are crated when we are away from home and overnight, with a camera on them to make sure everyone is safe and happy.

“I tried Rover for the first time and would recommend Lina without hesitation. She provided her services on a somewhat last minute basis and was very communicative and provided updates.”

“Irene is simply fantastic. She is prompt, asks a lot of questions to ensure she is prepared, and quick to respond. She has been kind when our schedule has changed and my dog loves her. Cant recommend enough!”

“Britney is amazing! She was super flexible in scheduling a meet-up that worked with my work schedule and Potter loved her!! (My cat, Nugget, even came out to play!) After walking my pup, Britney even played with him, too! Potter would definitely recommend!”

“Alex did a great job walking my senior pup the past two weeks! He's very responsive on the app and was even willing to be flexible on the timing when something came up last minute. I recommend him for anyone looking for a dependable walker. Thanks Alex!”

“Catherine did not hesitate to walk my dog when I needed someone last minute! She was caring and listened to my requests when it came to my pup! Will definitely be rebooking her for the future!”

“First time ever hiring a dog walker to check in on my pet while I was away, now I feel silly for always boarding my dog. Elise was incredibly professional, caring, responsive, and punctual. Got back to me same day to schedule a pre-meet to make sure I was comfortable before reserving the booking, took good notes to learn about my and my pet's needs, then did exactly what she promised to do. Even immediately checked in with me on the correct course of action when something happened I hadn't anticipated. I can absolutely see why she as such a high rating and star status! Will definitely try to book with her for any future pet care needs!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience in pet-sitting, which means I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, cats, sick animals, and behaviorally-challenged animals. I am also a proud pet owner myself - I have a 14-year old rescue dog named Greta, and I often cared for 3 of my roommates' cats in college (Luna, Socks, and Boo Radley). What sets me apart from other sitters is that I will care for your pet like they are my own, meaning constant love and attention, as well as careful attention to detail. I take your care instructions very seriously and follow directions to a tee. Every pet has unique needs, and it is my pleasure to not only meet those needs but also to make sure they are happy and as calm as can be. Because I work remotely, I can be available to pet-sit all day if needed. If my family isn't home, I will need to return a few times a day to care for my own furry friend, but please know that being of service to you means YOUR pet is the priority! Unfortunately, my pup (Greta) is pretty antisocial, which means I am unable to host dogs at my house. Because I live with my parents, they can take care of Greta while I am gone, and I am more than happy to stay at your house as long or as often as you need. I will always make sure your pet gets fed accurately, adequately, and punctually, and always has fresh water available. I also love to play with pets and make sure they get enough outdoor time and exercise if needed! Additionally, I always clean up after myself and your pet, and I make it my goal to leave your home just as it was when I arrived, if not cleaner. If I stay overnight, I always wash the sheets and linens, as well as clean any counter or surface I use.

“Nicole and her family are awesome!!!!! Wish I could give more than 5 stars. Very loving and attentive, especially with us having a very high energy husky. Will highly recommend to anyone and everyone”

“Steph couldn’t have been any more perfect for our dog, Remy! It was the first time we left a pet with a non-family member but I felt completely comfortable. Steph even has a doggie-sofa in her living area. I could tell from our first meet and greet that she was in tune with dog behavior. Her dogs are the sweetest hosts too! When we picked up Remy, I could just tell that she had a wonderful weekend. I really appreciate having a reliable, loving place to take Remy when needed.”

“Alex did an amazing job with my boys! I could tell from their smiling faces that they were being loved and well taken care of. I received prompt updates and pictures of them having a good time. He definitely made my trip worry free! I look forward to booking him again! Thanks again!”

“Keiwana and her gorgeous family took amazing care of our 4 month old puppy Rosie. They were so kind and patient - Rosie made more than a few mistakes but they were so understanding and graceful about it. Keiwana also sent us so many great pictures of Rosie throughout the weekend! Rosie made some new friends with their sweet dog Bailey and two little girls, and she didn’t want to leave when we came to get her! (but when we did get back home, she was so tired and napped like an angel). We would most definitely use them again (but maybe when Rosie’s older so their beautiful house doesn’t get any more puppy damage!!) Thank you SO MUCH to Keiwana & family!!”

About: I've been a huge pet lover since I was little! I've taken care of my family and neighbor's dogs since I was little, and I recently started taking care of family friends' dogs in my own home. I have experience administering meds for doggies on medication, love working out so I can keep up with any active ones, and have done grooming before! I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs, as well as small doggies all the way to big dogs. I love em all!! I just graduated college, and I am looking for full-time industry jobs, so I am home/available all day, and I'm ready to build my routines/schedules around your fur baby and make them my top priority! For boarding, I provide a secure, pet-proofed home. I like to do slow/controlled introductions with my roommates (all female college students) and me and keep close supervision at all times, especially in the beginning. I have an unfenced yard, but I never let untrained and/or unleashed doggies out there without constant supervision. I will follow all your care instructions and medication schedules. Everything mentioned applies for house sitting and dog walking! I do not own any pets myself, so I am open for doggies who cannot be around other animals.
“This was our first time with Kyra, she was great! Apollo had a nice and cozy time with her. She was communicative and understanding with us, planning to come back to her place soon!”
“Casey and Marwa are the BEST! They spoiled our large dog Indiana to no end with multiple long walks every day, playtime, cuddles, and even grooming. There was plenty of space to roam freely in the house. They posted many pictures and videos every day. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly! Indy came home well fed, nicely groomed, happy, and relaxed.”

“Karla was AMAZING with our pup, Clea! She sent daily photos and updates, and kept her entertained and happy. Clea looked like she was having a blast! We came home to a happy, rested pup. Karla was very flexible, and she was able to deal with not-so-pleasant weather while watching Clea. We would definitely use her services in the future!”

About: Friendly, reliable pet care that puts both pets and their parents at ease. With over 5 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I provide attentive, conscientious boarding in my clean, pet-friendly apartment. Cats and dogs are always supervised and safely separated when needed to ensure a calm, stress-free stay. Pets enjoy a structured routine with plenty of one-on-one attention, enrichment, and regular updates while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and focus on making their time with me comfortable, safe, and loving. A daily routine is more than a schedule it’s a promise to your pet. Through intentional care, exercise, love, and attention, you build a relationship that grows stronger each day. And as your pet thrives, so does your bond. Every pet is unique. I adjust my routine to fit their needs, energy levels, and personality. I do sitting inside my apartment where there’s me and my 14 year old son we love animals and just wanna play apart in making someone smile knowing there fur babies are in good hands. I’d greatly appreciate it if you could help by leaving your experience with me by leaving a review at the end of your boarding 😊
