“Joni is the best! I felt like I was leaving my dogs at a resort when I left her home. Everything was pet friendly and my lab got to swim her heart out. I was so at ease with her watching them. Excellent communication. Would highly recommend!”

“Sara and John were a great fit for my two high energy dogs. Their entire family loved having the dogs around and spent alot of time out doors or snuggled up. They were very communicative throught the entire stay as well and I received loads of pictures of my happy girls.”

“Kim is a fantastic pet sitter who cares for my fur baby exceptionally well. She is friendly, trustworthy, and caring. This is already our third visit, and my dog has enjoyed his stay each time.”


About: I have extensive volunteer experience at animal control, 4 years as an animal care technician, and have always had pets of my own. No dog is too much to handle. High energy? Great, let's run. Old timer? That's okay, we can hang out at home. Little puppy? No worries, I can practice training basic commands. I have managed to harmoniously share my life with 3 dogs, 4 cats, bunnies and chinchillas. I would be glad to spread that love to your furry family. No two dogs or cats are alike, so why provide cookie-cutter care? With me, your dog will be provided one of a kind exceptional care. On top of it all, I can take some pretty cute pictures. No worries if your pet is independent or prefers a quiet environment, we are able to separate the house into different wings. At this time I am working from 7-3:30 Monday-Friday, the rest of my time is spent at home with my pets where I am available to provide the same care I will never put your pet in a situation they are not comfortable with and promise to provide what they need for their safety whether it's personal space, a gated off room, time in a crate or social play time with my owns dogs
“I had a great first experience with Rover, thanks to Martha! Martha took amazing care of my dog for a whole week in her home. I was nervous about leaving him because he's had behavioral issues in the past, but it worked out really well! Martha was very responsive from the start and experienced with rescue dogs. Martha was very accommodating of Bumi's daily medication schedule and prescription diet, as well as his rescue quirks. She sent pictures and updates which were great comforts to me. Bumi was clearly very happy and comfortable while he was boarding. I will not hesitate to book Martha again!”

“This is the first time we have used this service. Holly was very friendly at our meet-and-greet...I could tell that she was an animal lover. We were still very nervous, because our Oliver is 8 months of crazy. But, Holly really treated our Oliver like he was part of her family. She sent us pictures during his stay...he seemed very happy. We highly recommend Holly and if a need ever arises again, we will definitely ask her. Thank you Holly for your compassion and patience with our little one.”

“Marty was fantastic with my dog. She accommodated our need on short notice and treated our girl like her own. She sent me photos and videos through out the time I was away. Her home and yard are beautiful. The fenced area was very impressive! I will definitely trust Marty with my dog in the future.”

“This was our second time having our pups stay with Toni and it went incredibly well! Such a relief to find someone that they feel comfortable with. Thank you, Toni!”

“Donielle is a phenomenal pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we never worried for a minute. She has years of experience and took fantastic care of our pup. It felt like our dog was on her own vacation and having so much fun she didn't even miss us! I highly recommend Donielle for her professional and caring service.”

“Victoria and Rishi and lovely attentive people who kept my little guy really safe and happy when I had to make a last minute trip out of town. I will definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommended!”

“Jesse and her family are awesome! She texted me updates and photos of our girl every day. Her two kiddos kept our large puppy very entertained. There is truly no price tag that you can place on peace of mind and that’s exactly what we had while CoCo stayed with Jesse. We would absolutely book Jesse again in the future!”

“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”

“Jessica was outstanding! This was our first time leaving Cooper with her and she was very caring, sharing daily pictures and updates. It really gave us peace of mind knowing Cooper was being so well cared for!”

“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”

“Rose came home happy and tired. She had the best time with Chris and family. He sent lots of photos over the weekend which was very appreciated. We look forward to using their dog sitting services in the future. Thanks again for taking care of our girl!”

“Max and Mariah took great care of our two 9 month old pups over an entire 4-day holiday weekend. These puppies are high energy and were allowed to play in their fenced in yard to their heart’s content and adjusted well to their already busy household. I will definitely check with them first if ever needing boarding again.”

“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”

“Literally the BEST person for our senior pup! She sent multiple daily updates, treated him really well, and basically spoiled him rotten! She even asked questions about his needs and wants. She referred to herself as “granny” for Benji, and by the end of his stay, Benji and I both agreed that she’s his granny! Ive never used this app before and she was my first person to try boarding with, and it was awesome. Will 100% come back if I need a sitter and 100% recommend her. :)”


“Hope was great with Ernie! I knew he was in capable, trustworthy hands when I dropped him off at her house. Hope gave me several updates during his stay. She went above and beyond my expectations, I highly recommend Hope to watch your dog.”

“Marlana is conscientious, prompt and so sweet with my cats. Both took to her right away and my normally shy and skittish Maine Coon especially fell in love. Great communication while we took a long trip, sending updates and photos. Also very patient helping me use the Rover app, which is not intuitive!”

About: My love for animals has been an extension of me for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats so I am well phased in caring for both.

To me, every animal has their own unique personality and I am so excited to get to know them! 😊 I work full time so I will need two weeks in advanced for in home pet care including overnight stays, however dog walking is something that I set time aside for daily so I can fit time for that into my schedule every day!

About: I have owned pets my entire life. From a little shitzu to a big pitbull. I have watched friends and family's dogs over the years and now looking to help other people with their fur babies. I was a dental hygienist but due to my twins needing more support I have decided to become a stay at home mom.

About: I have taken care of cats since I was a kid. Between family members and friends, they have always been a part of my life. I currently own a 6 year old cat named Yuri that we rescued.
About: I use to work for my grandmother who would raise dogs, take care of them, and then give someone a dog. I would clean up after dogs in all ways. Take care of the puppies with the moms. I would bathe all the dogs and get them groomed up to go to their new home! I am available after 4:30 P.M. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. After 3:30 P.M. on Wednesdays. And available most times and nights on the weekends! At this moment in time I do not have the ability or place to actually house sit at my home but, I can come to you!

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have taken care of them as well. I’m currently in school to be a vet tech so this is what I’m best at! I’m currently a stay at home mom but I’m available for check ins/walks throughout the week and the weekends. My schedule will be updated often. I prefer to come to your home for check ins and pet care. I feel the pet will feel safer in their own home and environment and won’t be so stressed in a new place with somebody they aren’t familiar with.

About: While I love animals of all kinds, cats are my soul animals. As you probably saw in other spots on my profile, I currently have 4 of my own. (I had five, but I very sadly lost my dear girl, Rita, to cancer last year ❤️). I love my kitties so much that I literally have two of their portraits tattooed on my arm. They're my entire world. I know that those of us who love cats, all share the same obsession. We're a special type of person. I currently care-take for my sick boy, Castle, dealing with his kidney disease. And have taken care of all my babies with the utmost care through their whole lives. I'm comfortable and confident in giving all kinds of medications, including administering subcutaneous fluids by myself. I'd love to care for your kitties while you're away!
About: Hi, I have had dogs through most of my life and hope you'll give me the chance to take care of yours. I've taken care of many different breeds from the small but mighty Chihuahua to the large, majestic Newfoundland. Several friends and family have looked to me to not only watch their dogs but also to help train them. I personally know how it feels to have obligations that might take you away from your fur baby. I would love to be the positive addition to your dogs life in order for you to be able to go to work, a family event or go out on a date with the peace of mind that your dog is being handled with the love and care that you yourself would provide. I have every confidence that you and your dog will be very happy with the care I can provide.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of various ages and temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own, a 3 year old and an 8 year old, both of whom I’ve raised from a young age. One of my dogs is an indoor companion, while the other is a well-trained outdoor dog. In addition to my hands-on experience, I have shown dogs of various breeds and have collaborated with breeders, which has provided me with valuable insight into different training techniques and dog behaviors. I’m passionate about spending quality time with dogs, whether it’s through daily walks, adventures on rail trails, or simply enjoying their company. I believe that understanding and adapting to each dog’s unique personality is key to providing exceptional care and building a strong bond. My approach focuses on trust, consistency, and creating a positive environment tailored to each dog’s needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Even though I work full-time as a CNA, I make sure to dedicate time each day to caring for animals, since I have two of my own at home. I’m already used to balancing a busy schedule while still giving pets the attention, structure, and affection they need. From feeding, walks, and playtime to maintaining a clean and safe environment, I treat pet care as a priority. My background in healthcare has also helped me build strong time management, reliability, and caregiving skills, which carry over into providing dependable and loving care for fur babies.

In my home, I ensure that all their needs are met, including medication administration, playtime, and baths upon request. I offer a variety of toys and treats to keep them engaged and happy. Additionally, I have a dedicated, remodeled dog room equipped with everything a dog could need for a safe and enjoyable stay.
“Suzi is very professional and took excellent care of our five cats. She followed the instructions I left exactly and kept me updated throughout the week. We have two cats that require special food and she was able to do that without a problem. I never questioned the level of care my cats would receive throughout the week and highly recommend!”
About: Part-time working mother of two looking to help my community care for their pet family members. I have always had a love for animals and had pets my whole life until a few years ago. Our beloved chocolate lab passed away and we have decided to wait until our children are older before we welcome another fur child. I understand the importance of respecting others homes and treating your pet as one of my “children”. I am responsible, punctual and looking forward to getting to know your pet! I am currently working from home three days a week which allows me to be available most days, nights, or weekends for drop ins, house sitting and walks. I enjoy going on runs and walks both in the country and around town. I live near a county park that allows dogs to swim and run around.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience and deep, personal connection with dogs of all ages. With over three years of experience, I’ve been trusted by clients and family alike to care for their pets—whether it’s energetic puppies needing structure and training, or senior dogs who require patience and gentle attention. I’ve trained my own dogs from puppyhood, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and care. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Whether it’s feeding, walking, cleaning, or just spending quality time with animals, I make space for it consistently. I’m already used to structuring my days around the needs of pets, from early morning potty breaks to evening playtime or check-ins. Being flexible and dependable allows me to give each pet the attention they deserve, and I take pride in making their care a regular, reliable part of my week. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space with a consistent routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest—just like I do for my own pets. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their routines and preferences, making sure their pets stay comfortable with minimal disruption. I follow all instructions carefully, keep the space clean (including litter boxes, food areas, and floors), and always make sure pets feel loved, secure, and well-cared-for while you’re away.
About: I grew up and still live on a farm. I have kept dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, etc. throughout my life. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. I work from home and know how frustrating it can be to worry about your pets while on vacation. I will send photos and videos of your fur family while you're away so you can stay in touch while you're away. My preference is to care for your fur family in a comfortable environment, their normal home. I am happy to host your fur family in my home, but I already have 2 small dogs, so I think they would be more comfortable if I came to them.
About: Hello! I’m a passionate, aspiring dog trainer with a special love for German Shepherds. I recently raised a litter of puppies, which deepened my understanding of early puppy development and the importance of critical socialization. That experience sparked a stronger interest in training and caring for dogs during their most impressionable stages and beyond. I’m currently expanding my hands-on experience and would love the opportunity to care for your dog—whether it’s through boarding, walks, or helping with basic training and structure. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to each dog’s unique needs. Whether you have a playful pup or a more mature dog, I’m here to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment. Let’s give your dog a happy, enriching experience! I’m currently doing pet care full time with aspirations of starting my very own dog training program one day. I’m soaking up all of the experience I can get right now. My backyard is secured by a 6ft wooden privacy fence and features a 900sqft barn which has multiple crates for dogs of all sizes. My house is dog friendly as well being completely puppy proofed.
About: I have had animals in my home for my entire life. And I do truly enjoy spending time with all animals, They keep me active.

About: I've had a dog for the past 5 years ( shiloh ) she's a German Shepard! She is wonderfully and well trained also is fixed. she does love to greet people so she might jump. I've also dog sat for many years as well and I worked for a dog company back in 2017 where I took care of daily task as well as medical needs when necessary, and worked along side pregnant and and birthing mothers. I have had a couple cats growing up, none to call my own though. So I am also acquainted with the care of cats and kittens as well as shiloh was raised around all types of animals and children of various ages so we are comfortable saying there should be no issues with her. However we can make other accommodation for her if you don't feel comfortable with another animal in the home. One final note I have 2 children a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I hope you enjoy my profile and to hear from you soon! I have a 5 year old German Shepard who lives full time with me and my children at home. I know how to give medication, shots aswell as cut nails and bathe but I do not feel comfortable trimming or giving the dogs a hair cut. I don't have a fence, i do have a little yard but I have harnesses and leads to walk and take the dogs out side to play. I do have a crate available if needed my dog is trained as well as crate trained. Shiloh ( my dog ) love the company of other fur babies to run around as play with. My two children are also in love with animals but I do have a vary large second living room and attached mud room that I can limit off for dog access if it would make having a dog stay here more comfortable due them not being used to children!
About: I'm a caring dog owner and have my own hobby farm. I love all kinds of animals but dogs hold a special place in my heart! My husband and I have 11 acres & the dogs love going on walks through the trails and seeing the farm animals along the way. I am attentive to each animals individual needs and love the affection dogs give. I have experience walking many breeds of dogs and have reliable transportation to get to your home on time for potty breaks. I know how much our dogs need human interaction and I think I enjoy play time as much as they do! You can trust me to give your pup the best care possible, whether at your home or mine.

About: Hi! My goal is to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable while getting the best form of care I can provide.

I’ve built a relationship with my own dog off of trust and want to do the same while caring for your pupper!

About: What sets me apart is that I focus on being consistent, attentive, and calm with every pet I care for. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine and personality, so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I’m also patient with different needs, whether that’s energetic puppies who need structure and playtime or older pets who may need a slower pace and extra care. I make sure communication with pet owners is clear and reliable so they always know how their pet is doing. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I’m very organized and consistent with my schedule. I’m comfortable handling feeding, walking, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my weekly routine feels rewarding rather than stressful. I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible.

I also pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level to make sure they’re happy and stress-free. If the owner has specific instructions, I always follow them carefully to make sure their pet receives the best care possible.

“MacKenzie did an AMAZING job!! I didn't know what to expect being as this is was my first time using Rover, and I was blown away with how smoothly everything went. I was gone for the 4th of July and even though it was a holiday she walked my dog twice, fed and watered her. She made sure to update me with pictures and get all information needed to take care of my pet. Whenever I go on a trip again I will definitely be using Mackenzie's services again.”

I would bathe all the dogs and get them groomed up to go to their new home! I am available after 4:30 P.M. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. After 3:30 P.M. on Wednesdays. And available most times and nights on the weekends! At this moment in time I do not have the ability or place to actually house sit at my home but, I can come to you!
About: I had a chocolate lab. She passed away in July 2020. She was 16 years old. She was on medicine and had a couple surgeries so I am used to taking care of older dogs with meds, etc. I do have 5 cats and they are very spoiled. They are outdoor/indoor. They range in age from 9 yrs-2 yrs-old. I believe in daily exercise for animals, I even walk the cats! I am available very early mornings 6-7am and in the evening from 7pm on. I am also available on most weekends. I look forward to seeing your pet and helping you out! I have a full time second shift job. I will be available in the mornings before 3:00pm and most weekends all day long if needed. I am currently not boarding any pets due to my cats being very spoiled and particular about who they have around the house. I will give the best care to your pet in your house. I believe in exercise and a good diet for your pet and also the occasional treat.
About: Hello! I’m a passionate, aspiring dog trainer with a special love for German Shepherds. I recently raised a litter of puppies, which deepened my understanding of early puppy development and the importance of critical socialization. That experience sparked a stronger interest in training and caring for dogs during their most impressionable stages and beyond. I’m currently expanding my hands-on experience and would love the opportunity to care for your dog—whether it’s through boarding, walks, or helping with basic training and structure. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to each dog’s unique needs. Whether you have a playful pup or a more mature dog, I’m here to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment. Let’s give your dog a happy, enriching experience! I’m currently doing pet care full time with aspirations of starting my very own dog training program one day. I’m soaking up all of the experience I can get right now. My backyard is secured by a 6ft wooden privacy fence and features a 900sqft barn which has multiple crates for dogs of all sizes. My house is dog friendly as well being completely puppy proofed.
About: I would make a great sitter for you because I genuinely love spending time with all animals ,and I have a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. My passion for animals drives me to create a nurturing and safe environment for them, where they can feel comfortable and happy. I’m Working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time with your animals, but I do work so I would be gone for a couple hours. I’m pretty flexible with times. I also don’t work on holidays It's essential to conduct drop-ins on the dogs they care for to ensure their well-being and comfort. Regular visits play a crucial role in maintaining the dogs' daily routines, which can significantly reduce stress and anxiety for the animals.
About: Hi, I have had dogs through most of my life and hope you'll give me the chance to take care of yours. I've taken care of many different breeds from the small but mighty Chihuahua to the large, majestic Newfoundland. Several friends and family have looked to me to not only watch their dogs but also to help train them. I personally know how it feels to have obligations that might take you away from your fur baby. I would love to be the positive addition to your dogs life in order for you to be able to go to work, a family event or go out on a date with the peace of mind that your dog is being handled with the love and care that you yourself would provide. I have every confidence that you and your dog will be very happy with the care I can provide.

“Nikki has been great with my young dog. She has walked/dropped in to check on him during two separate occasions when he was healing from surgery or other procedures from the vet. She is great about sending updates for when she is on the way to my house and on my dog’s mood that day. She is very good at reading him and judging whether he wanted to walk that day or just hang out in the backyard. I recommend Nikki for drop in visits or dog walks.”

About: I've owned pets of all kinds starting as a child! Animals bring me incredible joy, and I'd love to bring that joy into your home when I watch yours! I've owned, rescued and loved cats, dogs, rabbits, ducks, raccoons, birds, and squirrels! I currently own 4 cats, all of which were rescues. Two of them brother and sister who I hand raised and bottle fed. I also have 3 dogs, A gaggle a blue heelers, so I'm especially used to high energy pups. Though they very recently left my care due to a separation. I take great pride in the attention to detail I give to the animals in my care. I'm experienced in giving all kinds of medications, to both dogs and cats. In fact, one of my own kitties has kidney disease, and I've been managing his treatment and care 100% alone. Cooking him three meals a day, hand feeding, administering any medications needed, and even giving him at-home subcutaneous fluids. But as always, let's please communicate about the details of your pet beforehand if any special care is needed so we can make sure we're a great fit for eachother! I'm a corporate professional who is very fortunate to work from home, and has really great control of their schedule! So I can very likely work my schedule around your needs! For those whose pets I will be dropping in on to feed or walk, I take great care in making sure instructions are followed, and all the needs of your pets are met! I have an abundance of love to give, so rest assured that they'll get as many scritches as they can handle, and as much fulfillment as I can give while I'm there. I know what it's like to have to leave your fur-family alone, and I'll do everything I can to make this time a positive one for them, and you! I also offer cat boarding, which seems rarely offered. I wanted to offer this because I myself have been in a situation where I've needed this service, and I've never found a place that offers it, and it was absolutely so stressful so try and find a solution! For the kitties that stay with me, I have a completely separate spot in my house that I will have them stay in, since I have kitties of my own. The previous owner of my house actually had this section designed as an in-home salon, so it has a completely separate entrance into my home. As cat owners, we know how sensitive and stressed they can get, and introducing cats to other new cats just adds more unnecessary stress. This separate entrance and room allows for a stress free, safe environment that's large and clean to play and hang in, all to themselves! They will have their own sanitized, fresh litter, litterbox at the ready for them. No need to have to haul your own supplies here! Just bring any food and treats (or any special toys or blankets that you feel might be good things for them to enjoy their stay better, or be more at ease!) Your pets must be fully vaccinated in order to come stay, so please be ready to show proof of up to date vaccinations prior to any boarding bookings. This is for the safety of both your fur babies and mine.

“Sara and John were a great fit for my two high energy dogs. Their entire family loved having the dogs around and spent alot of time out doors or snuggled up. They were very communicative throught the entire stay as well and I received loads of pictures of my happy girls.”

“Kim is a fantastic pet sitter who cares for my fur baby exceptionally well. She is friendly, trustworthy, and caring. This is already our third visit, and my dog has enjoyed his stay each time.”


About: I have extensive volunteer experience at animal control, 4 years as an animal care technician, and have always had pets of my own. No dog is too much to handle. High energy? Great, let's run. Old timer? That's okay, we can hang out at home. Little puppy? No worries, I can practice training basic commands. I have managed to harmoniously share my life with 3 dogs, 4 cats, bunnies and chinchillas. I would be glad to spread that love to your furry family. No two dogs or cats are alike, so why provide cookie-cutter care? With me, your dog will be provided one of a kind exceptional care. On top of it all, I can take some pretty cute pictures. No worries if your pet is independent or prefers a quiet environment, we are able to separate the house into different wings. At this time I am working from 7-3:30 Monday-Friday, the rest of my time is spent at home with my pets where I am available to provide the same care I will never put your pet in a situation they are not comfortable with and promise to provide what they need for their safety whether it's personal space, a gated off room, time in a crate or social play time with my owns dogs
“I had a great first experience with Rover, thanks to Martha! Martha took amazing care of my dog for a whole week in her home. I was nervous about leaving him because he's had behavioral issues in the past, but it worked out really well! Martha was very responsive from the start and experienced with rescue dogs. Martha was very accommodating of Bumi's daily medication schedule and prescription diet, as well as his rescue quirks. She sent pictures and updates which were great comforts to me. Bumi was clearly very happy and comfortable while he was boarding. I will not hesitate to book Martha again!”

“This is the first time we have used this service. Holly was very friendly at our meet-and-greet...I could tell that she was an animal lover. We were still very nervous, because our Oliver is 8 months of crazy. But, Holly really treated our Oliver like he was part of her family. She sent us pictures during his stay...he seemed very happy. We highly recommend Holly and if a need ever arises again, we will definitely ask her. Thank you Holly for your compassion and patience with our little one.”

“Marty was fantastic with my dog. She accommodated our need on short notice and treated our girl like her own. She sent me photos and videos through out the time I was away. Her home and yard are beautiful. The fenced area was very impressive! I will definitely trust Marty with my dog in the future.”

“This was our second time having our pups stay with Toni and it went incredibly well! Such a relief to find someone that they feel comfortable with. Thank you, Toni!”

“Jesse and her family are awesome! She texted me updates and photos of our girl every day. Her two kiddos kept our large puppy very entertained. There is truly no price tag that you can place on peace of mind and that’s exactly what we had while CoCo stayed with Jesse. We would absolutely book Jesse again in the future!”

“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”

“Jessica was outstanding! This was our first time leaving Cooper with her and she was very caring, sharing daily pictures and updates. It really gave us peace of mind knowing Cooper was being so well cared for!”

“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”

“Rose came home happy and tired. She had the best time with Chris and family. He sent lots of photos over the weekend which was very appreciated. We look forward to using their dog sitting services in the future. Thanks again for taking care of our girl!”

“Max and Mariah took great care of our two 9 month old pups over an entire 4-day holiday weekend. These puppies are high energy and were allowed to play in their fenced in yard to their heart’s content and adjusted well to their already busy household. I will definitely check with them first if ever needing boarding again.”

“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”

“Literally the BEST person for our senior pup! She sent multiple daily updates, treated him really well, and basically spoiled him rotten! She even asked questions about his needs and wants. She referred to herself as “granny” for Benji, and by the end of his stay, Benji and I both agreed that she’s his granny! Ive never used this app before and she was my first person to try boarding with, and it was awesome. Will 100% come back if I need a sitter and 100% recommend her. :)”

“This was the first time using Rover and Alex was just a great choice. She and her family were delightful, sending me pics and keeping me posted. It was a great decision to opt for personal care rather than a kennel. She was flexible, and I would seek her services again based on the good vibes.”


“Hope was great with Ernie! I knew he was in capable, trustworthy hands when I dropped him off at her house. Hope gave me several updates during his stay. She went above and beyond my expectations, I highly recommend Hope to watch your dog.”
