About: I have been rescuing dogs for almost 2 decades. Needless to say, I love dogs. I currently have a great Pyrenees and she would love Company. I work 100% remote from home., my yard has a 6 foot privacy fence am I Home is very dog friendly. I am also experienced in taking care of diabetic dogs, including testing and injections twice a day, monitoring food and making sure that all the dogs under my hair get daily walks, and lots of love. I work 100% remote. My day doesn’t start until nine, which allows me to spend time in the morning either playing with the dogs going for walks. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood around those days that the weather doesn’t permit us to go out I have what we call beauty time.. I walk my dog every evening for at least 30 minutes and if the day is nice, we try to get some time in during lunch as well My house and backyard are very pet friendly. I am not someone who gets upset if there’s an accident after all they’re pets, stuff’s gonna happen. I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my backyard. My dog prefers to sleep outside, but for the dogs that I’m sitting I prefer they be inside with me.
“Suzanne took such wonderful care of my dog, Jax. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time ever using Rover let alone leaving Jax with anyone but a family member. I couldn’t be happier with how well taken care of he was.”
“Craig was great with my dog. I had to leave him for a week and Craig was very good with him taking him for walks and sending me pictures everyday. He is easy going and I will leave my pup with him if the need arrives anytime.”
“Dawn was able to watch Rose for us last minute and really made our weekend! She kept us informed of how Rose was doing and it was overall a great experience. We have already rebooked with Dawn for next month!”
“Gerrie Marie boarded our dog Artimus for a week and we are very happy with the results. He is a big 1 year ~80lb Shiloh Shepard Dog who is extremely playful and she able to meet his high energy needs. Artimus is very shy when meeting new people, but he warmed up to her and her family quickly and nicely. All of her dogs got along very will with Artimus and had no issues with that. Pick up and drop off were also very accommodating. Would definitely recommended to anyone looking to board their fury companion.”
“Katie did an amazing job watching two of my dogs. She was very quick to respond. Played with them the whole time and sent lots of photos to me when I was gone. I highly recommend her.”
“Steven was great with Beast. On our first visit Beast took to him. I received updates with pics and video which helps me to feel sure about leaving him there. I was told Beast even found a friend in Duke (another cane Corso). I’m pleased with the professional and prompt response. Would book again with him.”
“Our Arthur had a great time. Natalia sent is updates and photos during his stay. It was great, he was so tired when he got home. I will 100% use her services again and I would recommend her to anyone. Arthur was in great hands and company.”
“Amazing!! Our doodle loves going to Kellie’s to hangout with her doodle and her kiddos. She does a great job accommodating and keeping us updated with pics. We’ve used her twice now and will continue to do so!”
“Wonderful care, Calypso loved it and I really appreciated all the updates of a happy dog while I was out of the state. Whenever I reached out I got a response within seconds - we will definitely be back”
“Jessica is lovely, she was patient and friendly, and sent tons of photos and puppy updates throughout my doggo's stay. Would recommend and will def hit her up for future boarding needs!”
“Katherine and her family were great. It was my first time leaving my baby with strangers. We had a meet and greet and met the whole family. Getting pictures during Ksylee's visit and seeing her looking relaxed and comfortable were comforting to me. I will definitely use again.”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Mou & Yanling were very loving towards Sunny. It was Sunny's first time with other pets at Mou & Yanling; Sunny seems to be good being with other dogs. Sunny also liked their well fenced yard. Thank you so much Mou & Yanling!”
About: Hi, I’m Giulia. I work from home full-time, meaning your dog will practically never be left alone. Whether your pup loves a mid-day couch snuggle or pacing next to my desk for belly rubs, I am here to match their routine. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have experience from pups to seniors. I have two dogs of my own. I live in a house, with a fence-in yard. We will have outdoor time and play time! I send photo updates so you never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. Message me to set up a meet and greet! I work full-time from home. I have plenty of time to spend with your pups! We will be going outside for potty and play time. They are watched constantly. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to easily keep your pup company. I can also crate your dog upon request. If you have any other specific requests such as medication management, specific treats, food, toys etc that is not an issue. Just let me know.
“Queeny took such great care of my 5 month old puppy! She sent pictures and videos throughout the time of our Kaju being with her. She is also so attentive! At home we get Kaju’s water from the filtered fridge water spout out of habit and Queeny noticed that Kaju wasn’t drinking tap water and provided him with filtered water. I absolutely recommend Queeny!”

“Amber does a great job checking in on and caring for our two kitties when we are away. She always shares the best pics and a lot of detail about the kitties and updates on their food, water and litter status. She has helped us out in the past and I am always happy to rebook when she has availability when we need!”
“Cheryl is AWESOME! She was wonderful with our senior cat including being very accommodating to his temperamental ways and also administering medication. Cheryl went above and beyond in every aspect and will be my first contact next time we go out of town.”
“Our extremely shy cat hides from everyone, but actually sits at the door waiting for Evelyn to come over. We’ve had people volunteer to cat-sit for free, but we’d much rather pay Evelyn all the money to be our cats’ best friends when mom and dad are out of town!”
“Joshua took incredible care of our guy while we were away for a week, would work with him again! He communicated super well when Brixton had an upset tummy and was thoughtful in his approach to modify feedings. His love for cats is so apparent and it was clear Brixton felt safe with Joshua.”
“Audrey took great care of our 3 cats and our home while we were out of town! She provided daily updates with lots of photos that we looked forward to getting every day! She is very responsible and followed all our instructions. Don't hesitate to book with Audrey, we have already booked with her again!”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent me regular updates while I was away for two weeks and coordinated with my sister when my sister needed access to my house. I recommend Mary 100%.”
“Paris was fantastic with our girls. They really seemed comfortable with her, which is very important! They are not around a lot of people that they don't know, but she made them feel at ease. I would highly recommend her if you want a cat person, not a dog person who will watch cats. There is a big difference! She interacted with them on their terms, which is what most cats want. She really eased my mind about leaving my girls, and we will definitely use her again.”
“Linda & Steve were great and will definitely rehire when we go on our next trip :) they were so good to me 2 kitties, and one even has extreme anxiety. Thank you for taking care of our babies!”
“Hannah is a certified Angel. Her patience, kindness, and devotion to my Eddie went far beyond my expectations. Miraculously, she had a cat who is afraid of everyone snuggling up to her in no time at all. I greatly appreciated her photos and communication, having never been away from Eddie even for a night since rescuing him a year ago. So grateful!”
About: I’ve loved cats for as long as I can remember and have always enjoyed caring for their different personalities and quirks. I’m comfortable with playful, cuddly, shy, and independent cats, and I understand that every cat has their own routine and comfort level. I’m happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, or space when they need it. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible.
“Jillian was amazing! She went over and above what we even asked and was super reliable. She stayed in contact throughout, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our trip. She did a great job keeping everything neat and clean and taking care of all our animals, inside and out. I won’t hesitate to ask her to pet sit in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Megan — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet care provider based in beautiful East English Village. I live with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other calm, respectful pups. I provide a personalized, low-volume boarding experience from my home, where your dog becomes part of our little pack. My services are designed with your pet’s comfort and safety in mind. I only board one guest dog at a time, ensuring constant supervision, individual attention, and a peaceful, low-stress environment. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, a walk while you’re at work, or overnight care, I treat every animal like one of my own — with affection, patience, and professional care. I provide updates with every visit, and I’m happy to accommodate custom routines, feeding schedules, and medication administration when needed. Let’s schedule a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great match! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life — I structure my routine around it. With two dogs of my own, I’m already up early for walks, feeding, and snuggles. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit my boarding and walking services to just a few clients at a time, I’m able to give each pet my full focus without being overbooked or rushed. Whether I’m doing a drop-in visit, hosting a pup overnight, or stopping by for a midday walk, I plan my calendar so your pet gets reliable, unrushed, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in yours. BOARDING AT MY HOME: When boarding in my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment by only accepting one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give each pet plenty of individual attention and supervision throughout the day. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to having guests and do best with other well-mannered pups. I take time to carefully introduce everyone, and I require a meet-and-greet prior to first-time bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up with cozy resting areas, a large and securely fenced outdoor space, and plenty of enrichment opportunities like walks, playtime, and snuggles. I also follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible to make their stay feel familiar and reassuring. FOR DROP INS I aim to maintain your pet’s routine in their own environment, minimizing disruption and providing consistent care. I refresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and always leave your home secure and tidy. I also provide visit updates with photos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Building trust through consistent, compassionate care is what I do best. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, they’ll be treated like family.
“Genevieve was responsive, easy to work with and provided great updates when she watched our cat. She was very attentive, and I had the peace of mind knowing my cat was well cared for when we were away. I would definitely recommend Genevieve and look forward to booking her again in the future!”
“My very shy cats warmed up to Chetoya very quickly! She was consistent, thorough and thoughtful in her care. I appreciated her daily photos and check-ins with my two floofs. She always responded immediately if I had questions. Thank you, Chetoya!??”
“lauri helped us out recently with housesitting and watching our two cats - one of whom required medication twice daily and some other specifications throughout the day. lauri was great with caring for both him and his brother, giving them everything they needed and making sure that they were happy and healthy while we were away. she sent photos and detailed updates and it gave us such peace of mind knowing that she was looking after them. we came home to happy cats and a well taken care of house - i would highly recommend lauri and will be booking with her again!”
About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us! I have a dog run (working on fencing our large yard) and three dogs of my own. We have room to crate train if needed, and keep kids and dogs separate should your pup not be kid friendly.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben was timely, communicative and respectful. My 2 dogs can be a little raucous with short visits and he seemed to handle it with ease. Great price too! I will use him any and every time I can. A+”
“Megan was Great!! I've never used Rover and was a little nervous. After meeting her and seeing how my 2 cats took to her right away, my nerves were completely gone! I love to travel, sometimes counting on people with your babies can be tough! I will definitely call Megan again!”

“Rachael took such good care of my pups! I wasn’t sure how my dogs would do in a new home but when I picked them up they were sooo happy. Her dog Lucia is so sweet and got along so well worn my pups. They can’t wait to visit again! :)”
“We are so glad we found Tracey. She is great with our dog and always has time to answer any questions we may have. Gatsby is happy to be dropped off with her, and he was never like that with his previous day care situation.”

“Megan is extremely nice and welcoming and provides great care. My dog is always super excited to visit her place! Due to my dogs anxious nature, she often leaves new places stressed. However, whenever she comes home from Megan's she is relaxed and happy. Do book Megan if you want a great care experience for your pet!!”

“Dawn and her family were amazing caretakers of our dog while we were in McMinnville. We were working long hours so it was important to have someone we could trust and depend on to be there for our hound, and Dawn was AMAZING for us by being 100% timely, totally dependable, flexible, and super communicative. We had Dawn come to our place to take our dog on walks and also did pet sitting at her place, and would highly recommend both options! We’re so thankful for Dawn and couldn’t recommend her enough…you’ll be in good hands!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life. My house is prepped for most kinds of dogs, including a doggy door to a fenced-in backyard. I am self-employed and work mostly from home, so I'm nearly always surrounded by the animals. I feed them breakfast in the morning, dinner in the evening. They have doggy door access to the backyard I give them pets when they walk up to me while I'm working, and I make time to play with them often. I make sure that their water bowls are always filled and clean, that they get their meals on time, and that they get plenty of attention. I also take pictures to share with the clients.
About: I currently am a full-time Rover sitter. I have experience working in an animal physical therapy center where I treated special needs dogs and cats. Throughout my life span, I have owned 15 pets: 5 lizards, 8 fish, a hedgehog, a cat, 6 dogs, a scorpion, and a guinea pig. I studied animal science with a concentration in animal biology at MSU, following the pre-vet track. I’ve yet to meet an animal that I don’t get along with- it’s like we just click. I’m a very caring person that loves pets! If I could, I’d be a zookeeper. A lot of things I know about pet care I have learned in a Companion Animal Biology and Management class, from stress to diseases to development, etc. There couldn’t be a more perfect friend to watch your pal! Hope to meet you soon (: ! I am a full-time Rover sitter. Aside from Rover, I am a vet assistant at an animal PT rehabilitation center. To my best ability, I will give your pet my undivided attention. I’m rarely too busy to leave them unattended. I always ask clients for feeding and potty schedules and adhere to their pets’ needs. Safety is top priority, and your pet is in good hands. Upon request with unfenced yards, leash walking available.
“I will absolutely be using Jenaya and her husband again to watch my babies. I have two three month old highly energetic Australian shepherds. They are a lot. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous. I did feel instantly better after meeting them as you can tell she’s very much an animal person. Not only did she tire them out and I actually got to sleep after working crazy hours, but she also accommodated my crazy nurse work schedule. I also received several videos and pictures while I was working and you could tell she was very interactive with them. Even the daycare I have used for the boys doesn’t seem to get out all their energy the way that she did. If you are looking at theses reviews skeptical of this app like I was….you found the right people. Look no further!”
“I dropped my puppy off with Sarah for the day and she was amazing! She sent pictures of my puppy and took great care of her! I would definitely trust Sarah with any of my pets any day! Thank you!”
About: I have 20+ years experience of dog sitting. From bringing dogs to my home and going to other people’s homes. I am a passionate animal lover and will care for your dog like it’s my own. I work from home and have a large fenced in yard. Perfect environment for any pupper! I work remotely from home. So I can give your pet the attention love and dedication that it deserves. I have a senior dog who gets along great with other pups. We get up in the morning and start our day with a potty and food break. Then while I work, Louie hangs out with me. Taking as many potty and play breaks as he needs. I have a very large safe, fenced in backyard and another pup to keep your baby company. Again, I work from home so I am able to provide the dedication and attention that your pup might need. I have a young cat, but she’s grown up with dogs and does great with them. My daughter is also an animal lover, like myself and would be thrilled to have another baby around for us to spoil and love!
“Tara is great! She is super attentive and communicative, which means so much to me as an anxious pet parent. I knew Marlon was in good care even though he might be nervous. She took her time with him and did all she could to help him feel at home.”
About: I have two of the friendliest dogs who enjoy having friends over/spending the night. Comfortable caring for special needs animals & will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is cared for well while you're gone. Lots of play and interaction as I work from home. Please note I do have an increase in price for stays 3+ days or longer. These stays usually require more care & time away from flexibility with my own life. Be mindful rover takes out 20% of their own fees from sitters. I pride myself in being worth the money & caring for your pet as if they are my own. Be mindful of all fees as I am firm. Thank you! I work from home - the dogs really dictate my days most of the time :) Dogs have full access to the home including beds & furniture. We incorporate lots of play! I have a fenced in yard and live bear multiple parks. We take daily walks & ensure the pets get a ton of outside play.
About: My name is Lemuel and I have been taking care of pets all my life! I have a natural ability to become friends with any pet I come into contact with. I follow clear and straightforward instructions and make sure to stay in contact in case of any questions or concerns. Overall, I don’t just watch pets, I care for them as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. As long as I am home from school which is usually holidays or the summer, I am available most of the week outside of any plans I may have. I have a fenced and spacious backyard and a clean and pet friendly household free of kids and safety hazards ensuring a safe environment for any pet!

“Jillian was a lifesaver! I knew immediately when Zoey met her, we would vibe. I am far away on vacation and she's been a huge help for my family. Being that my dog is a senior, the excellent communication and photos I received has eased my mind. Thank you so much, Jillian!”
About: I've been a dog owner most of my life and also have two grand dogs and a grand cat who I care for often. I'm experienced with any age, any sized dog and regularly walk two dogs at a time. I'm ideal as a back-up, alternate or substitute service provider around my regular dog and cat customers. When can we meet? I'm looking for a way to meet more dogs when away from my grand dogs and want to walk / and exercise more while providing a trustworthy option for your pet(s)! Inclement weather doesn't matter if your pet doesn't mind it. I'm already an experienced and trusted house sitter, plus dog and cat sitter (and can care for houseplants & yards too). I'll respect your privacy and care for your home & pets like I would my own. I'll provide updates and photos to put you at ease. I truly understand that your pets are your children.
About: Hi! I’m Paris — a substitute teacher, lifelong pet lover, and proud cat mom of two playful kittens, Lilith & Zephyr 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for as if they’re my own. Whether it’s a dog who loves long walks, a cat who just wants cuddles, or a nervous pet who needs extra patience, I tailor care to each animal’s personality and comfort level. My clients describe me as attentive, communicative, and trustworthy — I provide photo updates, detailed messages, and genuinely enjoy spending time with every pet I meet. You’ll never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing while you’re away! 💼 My Schedule As a substitute teacher, I create my own schedule — which means I can adjust my availability for pet care. I typically work 4–8 hour school shifts with breaks that allow me to check in, walk, or drop in on pets during the day. Need round-the-clock or overnight care? I can absolutely provide that — I just ask for notice in advance, as 24-hour care may require adjusted pricing 💰 Rates & Expectations Rover’s listed prices reflect my base rates for standard care. Rates may adjust slightly depending on: • The number of pets • Travel distance • After-hours or weekend bookings • Medication or special-needs care • Holiday or extended-stay requests All rates are before Rover’s 20% platform fee. My goal is to ensure top-tier, stress-free care that’s priced fairly for both of us. 💬 Why Choose Me I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets. My goal is to create peace of mind while making sure your pets are loved, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Each booking is personalized — whether that means an extra bedtime cuddle, a longer evening walk, or slow introductions for shy pets. ❤️ Let’s Connect If you’re looking for reliable, flexible, and genuine care, I’d love to chat! Send me a message with your pet’s routine, quirks, or favorite toys — I’m happy to customize care around their needs. I work as a substitute teacher and I make my own schedule. As long as I have at least 2-3 days before a booking I can switch things around to be with your pet. I typically work 4-8 hours and have small breaks where I can leave the school and check in with pets twice a day while I am working. If they need round the clock care, I can make that happen but as it interferes with my day job that would require further conversation as far as pricing. I play with animals, I’ll walk them, bathe them, give them medication if needed. I treat every pet I’m lucky enough to have placed in my care as my own. Anything you need or want for me to do for your four legged family member I would be more than happy to accommodate!
About: I’ve had dogs pretty much my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been something that comes naturally to me. I’ve also regularly watched neighbors’ dogs and previously walked a group of neighborhood dogs on a weekly basis. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I truly enjoy giving them attention, exercise, and plenty of love. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I only work Monday through Wednesday so I am available all day Thursday through Sunday to care for and love all the fur babies that need me. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I currently work Monday through Wednesday, which leaves the rest of my week open and allows me to prioritize your pets and their needs. I’m able to give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship rather than trying to fit pet care into a busy schedule. I take being responsible for someone’s pet seriously and want to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
“Kylie took both of my large dogs for a walk - she was great! She communicated promptly, arrived on time and treated my dogs/property with care. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for dog walking services.”
“We’ve been so happy to find Caelan! She communicates fast and friendly, is reliable, and has given us great peace of mind knowing our new energetic pup is getting activity through the day. She is attentive to our doggos needs and has gone above and beyond. We will definitely be booking with her more in the future!”
“This is the second time that we’ve had Jules care for our two dogs while we’ve been away. Unlike other sitters we’ve used in the past, Jules has gone over and above each time she’s cared for our pets (taking our pets on more walks and runs than Rover required). She’s incredibly responsible, courteous and professional. Our #1 option for sitters.”
About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us! I have a dog run (working on fencing our large yard) and three dogs of my own. We have room to crate train if needed, and keep kids and dogs separate should your pup not be kid friendly.

“Nia was wonderful! She took care of my Zayle on short notice. Zayle still acts like a puppy and Nia was capable and comfortable with that type of energy and behavior. Nia was nice, professional and right on time. 10/10 the best the app has to offer! I’ll be booking with Nia again soon :)”

About: I grew up with dogs and found a love for them at an early age. I always had labrador retrievers but love all dogs. I have been dog walking since middle school and now I am currently a rising junior at Wayne State University and love all pets but love dogs specifically:) I have been dogsitting consistently for family and friends over the years and love taking care of all pets:) I am currently a full time student in the fall, but I babysit a few days a week on but am home a lot/most of the time. I do not have a fenced yard, but am very comfortable taking any dogs out on a leash and am comfortable having your pup sleep with me or can have them in a crate.
About: I’ve always loved animals, growing up with dogs and other pets. I will play with or take your dog for a walk whenever needed. I understand the unique needs of each pet and will provide them with the best care possible. I’m currently working remotely, so my schedule is very flexible. I can take your dog for a walk most days around noon or anytime after 5pm I won’t be able to care for your pet at my home, but have no problem coming to yours for a check in if needed.
About: I'm vibrant, happy, loving playful woman. I was a dog owner for 15 years to Giorgio. My favorite Maltese. He was my best buddy a woman could ask for. Our favorite time together was bath time. Well for me not him. He didn't enjoy it too much. When it was done I groomed him and blow-dried him and sometimes gave him a trim. He was a patient little boy but his favorite time was when it was all done I'd put him down and he'd rub his butt on the floor and run around the room. He'd get a treat right after. We would take a nice nap after. Miss my little guy so much. He was the best dog. Blessed to have had him. I dog sit in homes for small dogs. I can stay in your home for drops or long term dog house sitting. I’m an active person so I can do pretty much anything with your dogs. Walking, dog parks, hanging out at home, feeding time, naps, and bedtime routine. I do it all with love and patience. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I make my own time so pet sitting and care will comfortably fit into my schedule I listen and follow the pet owners directions and use my best judgement and experience with each dog. They are individual so care looks different for breeds. I will do what I can to keep your dog safe.

I now have my own cats Wren and Winnie who are the loves of my life. I currently have a very open schedule, so whenever you need me we can make it work. I just ask you work with me and I’ll work with you! I am open to coming to your place whenever needed, I do have a fenced in yard and live in a lovely neighborhood.

I work 100% remote from home., my yard has a 6 foot privacy fence am I Home is very dog friendly. I am also experienced in taking care of diabetic dogs, including testing and injections twice a day, monitoring food and making sure that all the dogs under my hair get daily walks, and lots of love. I work 100% remote. My day doesn’t start until nine, which allows me to spend time in the morning either playing with the dogs going for walks. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood around those days that the weather doesn’t permit us to go out I have what we call beauty time.. I walk my dog every evening for at least 30 minutes and if the day is nice, we try to get some time in during lunch as well My house and backyard are very pet friendly. I am not someone who gets upset if there’s an accident after all they’re pets, stuff’s gonna happen. I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my backyard. My dog prefers to sleep outside, but for the dogs that I’m sitting I prefer they be inside with me.
“Suzanne took such wonderful care of my dog, Jax. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time ever using Rover let alone leaving Jax with anyone but a family member. I couldn’t be happier with how well taken care of he was.”
“Steven was great with Beast. On our first visit Beast took to him. I received updates with pics and video which helps me to feel sure about leaving him there. I was told Beast even found a friend in Duke (another cane Corso). I’m pleased with the professional and prompt response. Would book again with him.”
“Our Arthur had a great time. Natalia sent is updates and photos during his stay. It was great, he was so tired when he got home. I will 100% use her services again and I would recommend her to anyone. Arthur was in great hands and company.”

“Jessica is lovely, she was patient and friendly, and sent tons of photos and puppy updates throughout my doggo's stay. Would recommend and will def hit her up for future boarding needs!”

“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”

“Queeny took such great care of my 5 month old puppy! She sent pictures and videos throughout the time of our Kaju being with her. She is also so attentive! At home we get Kaju’s water from the filtered fridge water spout out of habit and Queeny noticed that Kaju wasn’t drinking tap water and provided him with filtered water. I absolutely recommend Queeny!”
“This visit was my fur baby’s first boarding with Amanda. I was so nervous leaving him as he is an elder dog, however, Amanda put my mind at ease through consistent communications and lots of photos throughout his stay. I am so grateful for the love that she gave my boy! I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again”

“Megan has watched my pup several times and is great and reliable. My dog clearly has fun and loves it there as she's always excited as we pull up and can't wait to get inside the house!”
“Britnie was amazing with our dog Goober & he loved his time at her house. She sent us frequent updates & was very flexible when a situation with our daughter changed our pickup time. We highly recommend letting her care for your pups. Goober can’t wait to go back on our next vacation!”
