Personalized care for your dog or cat - Garrison

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Garrison
“Leaving my dog to someone I had just met once caused some consternation. However, with that first meeting I had a "meet and greet" with Steven and his own dog, which turned out just right. I dropped my cocker spaniel off with confidence. Steven sent me pictures and an update as to how my Gabby settled in. I was able to feel comfortable and able to attend a function without concern for Gabby. When I picked her up she was happy and had received wonderful care! I have returned to the area after being gone 23 months. I lost some contacts that I had. I feel enormously relieved that I have someone professional, reliable, and kind to leave Gabby with should I need to do so in the future. You will not be disappointed should you leave your trust in Steven, nor will your dog.”

“Amazing! I am so glad I found Rodney and Marissa. They were wonderful in everyway, my pup had a GREAT time. She has never been to boarding before so I was a bit apprehensive because she is little and 100 miles an hour. And, I wasn't sure if she would play nice. Well, all my expectations were hit out of the park. They have an acre of fenced land so she was able to run and play and play. No wonder she was great for them, (as I received updates and pics every other day or so) she was tuckered out from being able to be free! And be a dog with other dogs. I almost feel bad for bringing her home! That being said, I will hire them for weekly daycare in the near future. I truly am blessed finding them. Yay! 10 stars!”

“Mila was amazing; very welcoming and loving! I think Saint officially has a new bestfriend! She sent so many pictures and updates and even messaged me back timely. She reassured me repeatedly that he was going to be just fine and he was. I will book with Mila again when I need a sitter. Thank you Mila 💚”

“Ariel is amazing with my dog - Fluffy. Fluffy seems to really like her and is very happy to be dropped off there. I trust Ariel completely and highly recommend her!”


“Felice and Ken did a great job making our Winston feel right at home for his first visit. We are very happy to have found them and definitely plan on using them for future visits! Thank you Felice and Ken for taking such good care of Winston!”

“Visiting from Florida and needed a sitter emergency, and Carla accommodated us with no issues.. She also kept us up to date with Bella's status. Will definitely be booking With her again. Thank you Carla!!”

“Lydia was an exceptional boarder, I would highly recommend her to keep your pet in her home. Her whole family welcomed Sophie like she was their own! Lydia supplied daily updates with pictures and couldn’t have been any more helpful. I will definitely utilize her services again hopefully (I will be boarding Sophie again in April). Thanks again for the stellar job you did Lydia, my wife and I couldn’t be happier with Sophie’s care! Mike & Lisa”

“Shakiyla was very informative and pleasant to work with. She took excellent care of Zeus and I would recommend her to anyone and I’ll definitely will be using her services again.”

“Ruth and her family are so welcoming! Besa felt right at home and we felt relieved knowing she was surrounded by so much love during her stay. Will definitely be booking with them again.”

“This was our first experience using Rover and it was great! Brittanie and Ryan were flexible and easy to communicate with, shared photos throughout our pet’s stay, and overall made it easy to be away without worrying about her. Would definitely return the next time we need pet care!”

“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.”

“Keyona is a fantastic boarder. A+, 10 stars/5. I cannot say enough great things about her. She cared for and loved my dog like she was her own. Text, photos, treats! I really think my dog considered staying. Keyona is my first boarding experience. I was very nervous but she was patient with me and explained the process. I will not take my dog to anyone else. Thank you so very much!! If you are on the fence for a place for your dog or cat to go, look no further. Ive already booked her again!”

“Lingli was so sweet and attentive the entire stay and was great about sending videos and pictures. My cat was taken care of so well and she's a really great communicator.”

“Kimberly is the best, she took such great care of my Neco. She cared for him for 6 days through the Thanksgiving Holiday. She sent me great pictures and videos of him daily. She is a true dog lover. I will definitely be booking her again to care for my dog.”

“I felt comfortable leaving my pup with Nicolas. His home a was clean and spacious, and his neighborhood was suitable for dog walking. Would definitely recommend and request to board with him again.”

“Ebony did a great job with our Rusty. She sent pictures and videos every day. When he had an upset belly and needed a diet modification, she had no problem making adjustments! Thanks, Ebony!”

“Ryan is such a great person. He was on time in all of his visits. He followed all instructions as I provided. I could not be happier with his service. Highly recommend”


“Just got back from our vacation, and Schwartz was happy and seemed like she had a great time with her new friend Aye. The pictures and updates she sent gave me total peace of mind while I was out of town, and I’ve never seen Schwartz so relaxed with a new person. We will definitely be booking with Aye again, if she’ll have us!”


“Bronte is simply the best! She’s super qualified, super responsible, and super kind! We were able to relax and enjoy our time away even more thanks to her prompt reports and adorable photos of our furry family members. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Every interaction with Emma was positive and professional! She had quick responsiveness, was very friendly, and you can tell she’s an animal lover full-heartedly. Would highly recommend to anyone in search of a pet sitter!”


“Casie is the best. She is so reliable. She leaves detailed notes and cute photos that put me at ease while away from my fur babies. I know my cats are in excellent hands with her.”

“Maria did an amazing job with my two very shy indoor cats. She made sure they were well fed, water replenished, and boxes maintained. Maria took time to try to connect with my cats and play with them during each visit. She also fed my pond fish! Maria has her own feline and seems to easily relate to the quirks of my cats. I appreciate Maria responding to my Rover request in such a timely manner. (I was truly in a pickle as my planned sitter broke her arm.) I don’t go away often, but I know who to contact in the future when I do. Thanks so much Maria!”


About: I’ve cared for cats belonging to friends, family members, and clients throughout my life, and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with felines. While I haven’t personally owned a cat, I’ve gained experience interacting with cats of different ages, personalities, and comfort levels. I understand that every cat is unique—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a calm, respectful approach. My goal is to make sure each cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Jason was very punctual and responsible with taking care of our two cats. He always sent us pictures and this was reassuring as we were so far away! We will definitely be using Jason again!”


“I appreciated Keira's cheery disposition and professionalism. She was quite knowledgeable about animals in general because of her regular profession and that helped put me at ease. I would book with her again.”


“Ember was wonderful and we can't say enough good things! Returning from adventures, it usually takes a day or two for our kitties' anxiety levels to calm down, but not this time. Our fur babies were calm upon our return (19days) -a true testament to her care!! They were happy, content, well-adjusted and well cared for!! Ember sent daily updates which put us at ease and sent photos that captured their true essence. She has a quiet sense of humor and her true love for animals shows! We appreciated her genuine care and will have her house sit again in the future. Thank you, Ember!!”


“Cheryl was an incredible help with a last minute drop-in. She followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure our two small dogs were well cared for. Her prompt responses and photo updates were such a reassuring bonus. Thank you!”


About: I’ve had a few cats growing up in life, I really enjoyed taking care of them since they were much calmer than some of the dogs I had lol I was always on time with feeding and cleaning up the litter box and when they were ready for some love I was always there to give it!

“I was away for 10 days, Liz was incredibly respectful of my space and took amazing care of my Layla making sure she was fed, snuggled, and entertained. Layla never does well with new people but somehow Liz’s amazing presence was an exception. When I got home, she had fully cleaned the apartment making it look as though I never left, if not better than when I left it. She made sure to keep me updated with EVERYTHING, sending me pictures and videos so I knew Layla was doing good. She also responded very quickly every time which lifted all my stress off of me as it was my first time leaving my apartment in the hands of a sitter. As a first timer on Rover, Liz well exceeded my expectations and I will definitely choose her in the future when I go on more trips!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Garrison
“Brianna was a joy to work with. We dropped our pup off in the morning and we were sent photos and updates which was wonderful. I strongly recommend Brianna if you’re looking for an engaged and thoughtful dog sitter. 10/10!”

“As first time Rover-users, Rodney was both patient and helpful in guiding my wife and I through the process from start to finish. We received prompt responses to any and all of questions and were provided routine updates (with photos) throughout Bailey’s 3-day boarding stay. I would highly recommend using his services and we will definitely be contacting him in the future!”

“Lydia Is an awesome sitter! My dog Bennett absolutely thrives there, she takes him on little adventures he plays outside it’s wonderful! I would highly recommend her! She also sends pictures all the time which I adore!”

“Terry was so kind and happy to take in our dogs for the day! He sent updates throughout their stay and brought them on a walk - which isn’t an easy feat w our dogs lol. You can truly tell he loves watching dogs, 10/10 would recommend!”


“Ken & Felice were absolutely a breath of fresh air. They clearly love dogs and are excellent hosts. I could tell from their photos, and Charlie’s demeanor at pick up time that he was well cared for and in loving, capable hands. Looking forward to his return and many new furry friendships!”

“Jacqueline was amazing with my dog, Honey, this weekend! She took such great care of her and kept me updated with excellent communication throughout the stay. I truly appreciated the attention and love she showed Honey. I would absolutely recommend booking with her—she’s reliable, caring, and made the whole experience stress-free. Will definitely book again!”

“Kelly took amazing care of our puppy Murphy!! She sent me many photos and videos throughout the day, she took the dogs on long walks and gave them lots of playtime, she made sure my puppy had time to take a nap, and she was very responsive. Kelly and her dog Callie are incredibly sweet and I give them my highest recommendation!! We hope that Murphy will return to play soon!”

“My pup, Yumi, had a great time with Melanie and her pup. It was our first time doing a daycare service with Yumi but Melanie was very attentive and sweet to my Yumi. She was also very accommodating when my schedule had to change a bit as well and i greatly appreciate that. I felt comfortable and safe leaving Mr fur baby in her hands and would definitely book again in the future.”

“Carolina was amazing with our 12 week old puppy AND communicating with us. Lots of updates and pics and our pup came back very happy. Also very flexible with our schedule which was awesome. Will definitely be asking her to watch our pup again!”

“Lingli came through for our last minute doggy daycare needs and we are grateful! She was consistently responsive over messages, and was very sweet to our small dog, Gary, during their meet and greet, gently letting him get used to her. He was excited to see her again when we returned for drop off a couple days later. We appreciated the photos of his stay and know he was well looked after.”

“Kassandra was absolutely magnificent! Super kind, caring, and incredibly gentle with Chloe. I’m beyond grateful for the thoughtful, detailed care she provided. She’s truly a wonderful human, and Chloe already adores her. Thank you so much!”

I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule. I understand that life can cone out of nowhere, so I will do my best to work with you to care for your furry children. The best care comes from attention and routine. Of course, pets still love to throw curveballs, so its important to roll with those too. I am happy to discuss you and your pet's needs to come up with the best plan.

I'm flexible and open to care for both big and small pets of all kinds! I follow routines for every animal specific to each Clients needs! I aim to keep pets separate on different levels of my home if I happen to have 2 simultaneously and I always love to give 1 on 1 TLC for all Fur babies!! I’m looking forward to caring for your fur baby when you book a stay at The Fur Baby Spa with Kaye! I always follow regular routines with each animal I care for. I want to give them plenty of time to play and exercise as well. I use each Clients outline of their normal daily schedule for their fur baby as my guide.

“Ryan was so attentive and went above and beyond for our leash-reactive pup on their twice-daily walks. He made us feel comfortable leaving the country and leaving our dog in someone else’s care.”

About: I've taken care of pets all my life, with always having at least one dog and one cat at a time, but also having up to three dogs, one cat, and several fish as well. I love any type of animal, and spending time with them is very special to me. I am a very active person so walking your floofer is not a problem! I've also cared for senior dogs as well, as well as taking care of family's and friend's pets over the years. I am currently unemployed as I am a student in college, but when I come home from breaks I am very eager to make your lives easier and watch your pets for you. Since I'll be available mostly over the holiday season as well as summer, it's perfect timing for when you travel to see your family or go on vacations! I will follow any instructions given as to the best way to care for your pet, and I will make sure they're as comfortable and happy as possible!

“Jason listens carefully to what I like when it comes to training, as Roarke is in training to be a service dog. He also won Roarke’s affection right away. I would recommend him to anyone.”

“Would definitely recommend and choose Cheryl again! She walked and played with our high energy, 1 year old border heeler while we were away. We were at ease knowing he was with someone who could handle all of his wildness. Thanks again!”

“Maria is amazing! She came to my rescue fairly last minute with a series of walks for my big ol AmStaff and Daisy loves her! She spent time loving in her every walk which was super sweet and even helped with clean up when my anxious pup had an accident on the carpet. I’ll definitely be rebooking with her(: Thank you, Maria!!”

“Julian is amazing. He took such good care of our girls while we were away. He kept in touch with us and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were safe and cared for.”

“Above and beyond. While my girl Gemma was ready for her walk, my puppy Nico was very apprehensive it came time. Mike was super patient and understanding, taking extra time to win Nico over. This guy is who you want walking your anxious and nervous puppies! Definitely recommend, booking future walks now :)”

“Alicia did a phenomenal job! She was very communicative, punctual, professional, and took some great photos of our dog on his walk. We will definitely be requesting her services in the future. We were happy that Jett did all his tricks and commands for her 😀”

About: I grew up with and surrounded by pets and have been helping pet sit for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 8 years old! While I do have a full time job, I have plenty of time to spare to watch and care for your pets over the weekends! I live in an apartment, so while I don’t have a fenced yard, my complex has a large dog park for plenty of exercise and playtime. For cats, my apartment has lots of space to roam, cozy hiding spots, and even a cat tree for climbing and relaxing!

About: Good with cats and dogs. Can take dogs for walks and play, and able to home sit cats and dogs. I had my own dog and pet sit for family. I’m currently off from school so I’ll have plenty of time to pet sit or go for walks. I can do 3x a week from 9-4 but times can also be negotiated depending on what is needed. I will follow rules given by the owner when in the clients home. Food and water will be given as intended by the client. And dogs will be taken out regularly.
“Jeremy is a wonderful walker for us! Atlas took to him immediately and is always excited to see his new friend when he arrives. They get along great, Jeremy is very attentive to his needs, and Atlas returns home thoroughly satisfied after each trip. Jeremy's experience with dogs has been a huge boon; he handles large breeds well and has a unique insight to their behaviors thanks to his time working with sled dogs.”

About: I’ve spent the past year caring for dogs and cats like my own. Lots of walks, cuddles, and playtime! I’m super patient and always take time to get to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m a part-time sitter and currently unavailable Monday through Thursday from 3 PM to 6 PM due to work. I’m flexible outside those hours and happy to accommodate morning, evening, or weekend visits! Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and always give them the attention they need.

It helped a lot that she had a fully fenced yard and no pets of her own when we booked her. From meet and greet to pick up, she made it easy for everyone.
