Personalized care for your dog or cat - Dryden
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Dryden
“Amazing, definitely highly recommend. Our dog and cat are very social and need a lot of attention and they were very happy and comfortable from the start. Very responsive, friendly, provided a lot of updates and pictures. We found our go to for any future need for watching our pets.”
“Shivambika was very responsive when our dog was with her for three days. We received updates daily and our dog was very well taken care of. Will definitely use her again for future trips!”
“My boy Chauncey stayed with Dan and Clare for three nights four days. I was sent multiple forgraphs to show how he was faring including him eating and sleeping. I had a GPS collar on him which showed the amount of play time and rest time he was given. (A LOT)!! Their yard is huge and fenced. Unfortunately my dog has learning to jump over cyclone fencing the week before staying with Dan and Clare; therefore, I put his GPS collar on him. They watched my sweet naughty (sporting dog - very concentrated on looking for creatures and can lose his mind by only having those thoughts in his head ;-) ) and I could tell much attention was given to watching out for him and guaranteeing he was safe. Their three dogs - after they bark upon your arrival - are very sweet and very accepting of newcomers. I would use them again in a heart beat. I travel on the road with my dog and also spend time in Texas so it will be hit and miss when the need arrives. However, should you want a safe, clean, dog "resort" for your pup go here. Lots of new smells, critters to chase and great hosts for your four legged family member, Thank you Dan and Clare!”
“Lia, Jonathan and their entire family are amazing! This was the first time I have used Rover, so I was very nervous. Jonathan and Lia sent updates, photos and videos throughout the day. They put my mind at ease and I was able to have a wonderful vacation. I think my sweet girl misses them, but we already booked her next two stays with them!”
“Laura was amazing! Her house was spotless and tidy, so there was nothing for our pups to get into. The pups had a large yard to run around in. She sent us daily updates from their walks to the lake, so our dogs got really good exercise while with Laura. We were so happy with her, that we actually recommended her to a friend, while our dogs were still there! We will use her again 100% for our next out of town trip. She even went above and beyond, as one of our Frenchies got a paw infection 2 days before out trip. Laura administered medicine and even did epsom salt soaks on her paw. We could not be happier with how our dogs were taken care of.”
“Bella recieved excellent care during her stay enjoying walks and company of other pets. Annmarie was able to get Bella settled in comfortably and kept us updated. Highly recommended and Bella has now found a second home.”
“Couldnt be happier with love and care provided to our Daisy. Daily pics/ videos of both playing in yard and quiet time put our mind at ease. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Lyndsey and Justin went above and beyond for our dog! I could tell from the first meeting that our dog was going to be in great hands! It certainly made our 10 days away much easier not having to worry about our girl! We received communication and many cute pictures of their young daughter giving our girl lots of love!! We Would highly recommend them for your dog, And we will certainly use them again! A huge thank you to this very sweet and loving family!”
“Rocky's home away from home was another great stay! Rocky is so relaxed with no anxiety issues. Diane you're the best and this Momma doesn't have to worry when he's in your care. Diane is my dog whisper and can follow directions. We're so happy to have found you. Until next time Auntie Diane.”
“Audrey is the best! I love her, she’s kind and gentle and so good with dogs. I know my boys Apollo and Comet love staying at Audrey’s too, this was their third time and when we got there they got so excited that they couldn’t wait to get out of the car, they ran straight to her. She has a big fenced back yard where the dogs can run and play, and Apollo and Comet love that. She sends daily pictures and videos of the boys, and they look happy and settled. I feel comfortable leaving my boys with Audrey, and I would most definitely leave them with her again. Nothing better than knowing that your pups are happy and in good hands. Thank you Audrey”
“They were great! Loved getting picture updates and seeing my 3 dogs happy and playing with their 2. Great communication and flexibility with drop off and pick ups. I can tell my dogs were well taken care of and loved!”
“This was one of the best experiences I have had while using rover. She regularly sent updates and pictures which was great to see. Her and her family took wonderful care of my dog, taking him on many walks, playing, and just relaxing. I cannot put into words how much peace of mind it provided and how sweet it was that they cared for my senior dog in all the perfect ways. Thank you so much!”
“Can’t thank Cheri enough for taking such good care of Denali while we were out of town! She provided frequent updates and spoiled Denali with lots of playtime. It is nice to have someone you can trust with your pets while away. Will most definitely use Cheri again!”
“AC was so nice. Updated me daily and quickly on Charlie. Charlie got along with their dogs and had a wonderful time in their backyard. Can’t wait for them to watch Charlie again.”
“Tetyana is the best of the best! She goes above and beyond each time to love on my dog and make sure he feels safe and relaxed. She sends pictures and tells us about his day, which makes leaving him a little easier.”
“She was great! It was my boys first experience outside of his house and I was very nervous. She kept me updated, sent pics and updates. Super experience with Laura! Highly recommend!”
“Sydney was great with Murphy. We received updates and photos on a daily basis. Murphy enjoyed his snuggle time, play time, backyard time, and evening walks. He was a happy boy when picked him up.”

About: While growing up on a farm, I have always loved caring for dogs, cat, and horses with various needs. Friends and family have trusted me with their four legged companions of all sizes for many years. Whether your dog needs to burn some energy on a fun walk or your cat needs a friendly drop-in visit, I can't wait to meet them! 🐾 I currently have a very sweet Australian Shepherd, an extra fluffy cat, and four gentle horses and two donkeys - all with unique personalities and needs. I work remotely from home, so my schedule is relatively flexible. I'm more than happy to spend time with your pet, ensuring they receive proper care and attention. My backyard is fenced in, with plenty of room to play ball or practice agility. I respect other pet owner's space and home, as well as rules for handling or caring for their pets, ensuring I am both assertive and friendly.
About: I am a stay at home mom with 2 school - aged boys. My kids love dogs almost as much as I do and are very good at helping out with them.

We adopted our sweet senior rottie mix, Roary, back in 2023 and our indoor/outdoor kitten, Biscuit, in 2025. I will only care for dogs in my home that get along with children, dogs, and cats so everyone will feel comfortable. If your dog plays well with others, (s)he will be treated as family! I work from home, so I spend the majority of my day at home. Your pet will not be alone for long, if at all. We live on 3 acres and while we don’t have a fenced yard, your pet will spend plenty of time outside (on a leash) and be walked around the yard every few hours. I currently work from home. I will be able to take your pet for multiple walks daily and attend to their needs consistently. Even though I work from home, my time is important. Last minute requests will have a $25 charge added to the booking. I do not have a fenced yard, but I have a good amount of property and will walk your pup throughout the day. If they need more exercise, I do have a long lead I can put them on to play fetch or just run around. I do not allow the pups to be outside unsupervised or unleashed at any time.
“Lindsay was great with my elderly cat, Finn. Finn is a bit of a high maintenance lady with special potty needs and medication so finding the right person for her is important! Lindsay was just that person- she was very communicative, included great pictures in her visit summaries and Finn had no problem opening up to her. I will definitely use Lindsay again in the future!”

When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to try to keep their routine and to make it as stress free as possible. I'll follow your instructions, if provided, for walks, play time, and any special routines they may have.
“Molly was amazing! Both of my cats warmed up to her very quickly, and one of them is generally very skittish. Molly made sure they were fed, watered, cleaned up their litter box and gave them lots of love and attention. She gave me updates and photos with each visit. I will absolutely be booking with Molly again!”
“This was my first time leaving my cats, and I was so relieved to find Mckenzie. So grateful to her for her awesome cat sitting! She was extremely friendly and eager to bond with my cats to make them as comfortable as possible while we were gone. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really enjoyed. She also left the house spotless. Thanks again McKenzie, I’m sure we will be contacting you again!”
“Carly is FABULOUS! She always leaves a detailed summary of her visits- which is huge with my senior dog and keeping track of bowel habits and tinkles. Carly walks with my girl in the yard and takes time for lots of pets. Carly pays attention to and adjusts for my dogs significant loss of hearing to avoid startling. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”

“Louie had a great first day with Kerry! She is wonderful and her home is beautiful and pet-friendly. She understands Lou’s needs as a puppy and made time for lots of walks and play time to tire him out! She kept in very close communication with us and sent cute pictures of Louie all day. She is incredibly loving towards Louie and made us feel very comfortable leaving him in her care. We trust her implicitly and appreciate how flexible she is with late pickup times. We will continue to use her as needed for daycare! Thank you so much Kerry!!!”
About: I love pets and handle almost any type of temperament :) Living in the Del Ray area, I've had many opportunities to interact with different breeds and I've never had a dog I couldn't taken care of.

“Honestly, simply the best. My dog had the best time ever!! She’s caring, hardworking and really loves what she does! Gives updates when she can! And is very open and honest. My dog will definitely be coming back! He didn’t want to leave that’s how much fun he had!”
“I’m so happy I found Andrea and Tyler! They’re both so kind and welcoming, and it’s clear they really love dogs. They took the time to carefully introduce my 100-pound lab, Amos, to their two sweet, easygoing pups, which put me at ease since he hasn’t had a lot of experience around other dogs. I really appreciated how tuned in they were to his needs - making sure he got breaks and some solo time with them when he needed it. That kind of care means so much. I’m looking forward to having Amos spend time with them in the future - they’ve already been such a supportive part of his socialization journey!”
“Renée was awesome! I was working a craft fair nearby and she kept my doggie for two nights and sent me pictures. Next time I do this craft show I will be contacting her and I highly recommend!”

“As always, my dogs loved their stay with AnnMarie! They returned home happy & sleepy after a full day of fun. Thank you, AnnMarie, for loving my dogs like your own :)”
About: My journey in dog care began at a board and train facility, where I had the privilege of working closely with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I've gained invaluable experience in understanding and meeting the unique needs of each dog under my care. Whether it's administering medication, following dietary guidelines, or simply providing plenty of belly rubs, I pride myself on going above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of every dog I encounter. I am currently a stay at home mom. I am home most days with my both of my children (4yrs & 1.5 yrs) and our dog. As a dog parent myself, I understand the bond that forms between humans and their furry friends, and I strive to provide the same level of care and devotion to every dog in my care.
About: I have both personal and professional experience taking care of animals. My experience has been primary with dogs and cats, however, I have looked out for turtles, fish and birds as well. I have a passion for learning and understanding animals. My experience also comes from volunteering with the Humane Society and a local shelter helping caring and socializing cats and dogs. I understand the stress that comes with getting good care for your beloved pet, therefore I take great pride in caring for them as if they are my own. Other hobbies include reading and watching reality TV with my pup. I currently work from home 4 out of the 5 days of the week. I can let your pup out as many times as they need. I don’t have a fenced in yard, so all potty breaks will be done on leash. I have the space to crate if needed, but will need to provide your own.
“Karen was absolutely the best! Communicated well and I was so confident leaving her for baby with her! We will definitely be connecting with Karen again the next time we’re in town”

Dan is also very flexible and accommodating, I had to reschedule several times and he was very understanding.”

I just moved into a trailer so your animals will have plenty of room inside and also a private backyard. I have a dog to keep yours company along with two cats. I can also crate your dog if needed.

About: I have 21 years of comfortability around pets (since I was born) and 3 years of professional pet sitting experience with both dogs & cats :). I have experience with senior pets & puppies!

About: I have been a part time dog sitter, cat sitter, house sitter, etc since I was 10 years old. I've also been a volunteer at my local animal shelter since I was 15. I've taken care of old dogs, young dogs, energetic dogs, couch potato dogs, friendly dogs, shy dogs, big dogs, small dogs, you name it.

I have an active personal life, always making plans friends and family, but offering services on here allows me to plan my leisure time around times I'm needed for pet care. Firstly, I want to say I understand meeting people online and inviting them into your home can be very anxiety inducing, and I want to reassure you that with me, your pet, your house, and your belongings are safe. If you have ANY questions or concerns, please let me know. I'm here to help answer anything that could cause you worry. Your pets are part of the family and I understand staying safe is a priority. When I personally am trusted to stay in someone's home, I usually stick around the same area of the house out of habit. I keep food where it belongs to prevent mishaps, and keep things off the floor to prevent injuries of their me or pets. When going for walks I like to stick to trails or sidewalked areas that have decent cell reception, just in case. I keep treats with me, extra bags, and have a phone holder for my wrist so I can have a hand free, especially for dogs who get excited from wildlife and could suddenly pull really hard anytime. I keep a pop up bowl and a bottle for water breaks. Before going for longer walks I touch test the path in case they are too hot. I also have experience putting jackets on dogs in the colder months.

About: I've taken care of my own dogs since I was 9 years old. We had three German shepherds in our family at once so we kept them busy with walks and a lot of play time. We now have our fourth German shepherd who relies on me to walk, bathe, and feed her. I've taken care of my friends dogs and have enjoyed every minute of it. I'm currently not working so I can take care of pets during the entire day. I work around the needs of my pet. I will play or walk her in the morning as well as a nighttime walk or car ride, which she enjoys more than the walk! She receives multiple potty breaks throughout the day as well. My dog has an electric fence so she plays fetch for hours. We also live near multiple parks and paths to take her on walks. I am comfortable walking within subs, on dirt roads, or driving to any location to make sure your pet receives the proper care and exercise for the day depending on their needs.

“My boy Chauncey stayed with Dan and Clare for three nights four days. I was sent multiple forgraphs to show how he was faring including him eating and sleeping. I had a GPS collar on him which showed the amount of play time and rest time he was given. (A LOT)!! Their yard is huge and fenced. Unfortunately my dog has learning to jump over cyclone fencing the week before staying with Dan and Clare; therefore, I put his GPS collar on him. They watched my sweet naughty (sporting dog - very concentrated on looking for creatures and can lose his mind by only having those thoughts in his head ;-) ) and I could tell much attention was given to watching out for him and guaranteeing he was safe. Their three dogs - after they bark upon your arrival - are very sweet and very accepting of newcomers. I would use them again in a heart beat. I travel on the road with my dog and also spend time in Texas so it will be hit and miss when the need arrives. However, should you want a safe, clean, dog "resort" for your pup go here. Lots of new smells, critters to chase and great hosts for your four legged family member, Thank you Dan and Clare!”
“Lia, Jonathan and their entire family are amazing! This was the first time I have used Rover, so I was very nervous. Jonathan and Lia sent updates, photos and videos throughout the day. They put my mind at ease and I was able to have a wonderful vacation. I think my sweet girl misses them, but we already booked her next two stays with them!”
“Laura was amazing! Her house was spotless and tidy, so there was nothing for our pups to get into. The pups had a large yard to run around in. She sent us daily updates from their walks to the lake, so our dogs got really good exercise while with Laura. We were so happy with her, that we actually recommended her to a friend, while our dogs were still there! We will use her again 100% for our next out of town trip. She even went above and beyond, as one of our Frenchies got a paw infection 2 days before out trip. Laura administered medicine and even did epsom salt soaks on her paw. We could not be happier with how our dogs were taken care of.”
“Couldnt be happier with love and care provided to our Daisy. Daily pics/ videos of both playing in yard and quiet time put our mind at ease. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Lyndsey and Justin went above and beyond for our dog! I could tell from the first meeting that our dog was going to be in great hands! It certainly made our 10 days away much easier not having to worry about our girl! We received communication and many cute pictures of their young daughter giving our girl lots of love!! We Would highly recommend them for your dog, And we will certainly use them again! A huge thank you to this very sweet and loving family!”
“Rocky's home away from home was another great stay! Rocky is so relaxed with no anxiety issues. Diane you're the best and this Momma doesn't have to worry when he's in your care. Diane is my dog whisper and can follow directions. We're so happy to have found you. Until next time Auntie Diane.”
“Audrey is the best! I love her, she’s kind and gentle and so good with dogs. I know my boys Apollo and Comet love staying at Audrey’s too, this was their third time and when we got there they got so excited that they couldn’t wait to get out of the car, they ran straight to her. She has a big fenced back yard where the dogs can run and play, and Apollo and Comet love that. She sends daily pictures and videos of the boys, and they look happy and settled. I feel comfortable leaving my boys with Audrey, and I would most definitely leave them with her again. Nothing better than knowing that your pups are happy and in good hands. Thank you Audrey”
“They were great! Loved getting picture updates and seeing my 3 dogs happy and playing with their 2. Great communication and flexibility with drop off and pick ups. I can tell my dogs were well taken care of and loved!”
“This was one of the best experiences I have had while using rover. She regularly sent updates and pictures which was great to see. Her and her family took wonderful care of my dog, taking him on many walks, playing, and just relaxing. I cannot put into words how much peace of mind it provided and how sweet it was that they cared for my senior dog in all the perfect ways. Thank you so much!”
“Can’t thank Cheri enough for taking such good care of Denali while we were out of town! She provided frequent updates and spoiled Denali with lots of playtime. It is nice to have someone you can trust with your pets while away. Will most definitely use Cheri again!”
“AC was so nice. Updated me daily and quickly on Charlie. Charlie got along with their dogs and had a wonderful time in their backyard. Can’t wait for them to watch Charlie again.”
“Tetyana is the best of the best! She goes above and beyond each time to love on my dog and make sure he feels safe and relaxed. She sends pictures and tells us about his day, which makes leaving him a little easier.”
“She was great! It was my boys first experience outside of his house and I was very nervous. She kept me updated, sent pics and updates. Super experience with Laura! Highly recommend!”
“Sydney was great with Murphy. We received updates and photos on a daily basis. Murphy enjoyed his snuggle time, play time, backyard time, and evening walks. He was a happy boy when picked him up.”
“Amazing care for my Tito and highly recommend for any future care for your pets! She and her family made me and my family feel very comfortable and trusting for the safety and caring of our Tito in their home! I am very thankful! She will always be my go to for future stays!”
“Andrew and his wife were wonderful. He sent me text messages and pictures while boarding my dog. Boarding one dog at a time made him my first choice, as my dog is very quiet and enjoys being alone.”
“Colson seemed happy and had plenty of playmates. Amanda was a responsible pet sitter and boarder. He was boarded for two weeks while we were on vacation. Amanda was able to deal with Colson’s barking in an appropriate way. So far at home, his barking is not as big of a problem, although he’s awfully tired, too! We would use Amanda again!”
