“Angela was great! She made Dobby feel comfortable, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing while I was away. Now he's home and crashed out from all the fun.”
“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.”
About: Hi, my name is Carissa! I am experienced in caring for many animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and even farm animals. I owned an operated an open-play dog boarding and daycare facility in Southern California for five years (from 2014 through 2019) serving over 300 furry clients- all different sizes and personalities. (My old Facebook page with reviews can be seen on facebook by searching CarissaBennettCanineCare). Since moving back to my home-state of Michigan I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years in a general practice clinic, and am able to confidently provide first aid, as well as administer oral, topical, and injectable medications to pets in my care. Additionally, I am comfortable with caring for senior and special needs pets. I love all animals like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furbaby while you are away! I am available all day Fridays-Mondays. Perfect for long weekend trips! I do work to Tuesdays-Thursdays, 8am-5pm, but I am available in the evening on Thursdays for drop-off if needed (for an early Friday morning departure, etc.). I am available for drop-in visits Friday-Monday as well, and can also schedule drop-in visits between 6-8 pm Tuesday-Thursdays. Your pet would have tons of love in our home, with access to all living spaces and our large fenced-in yard. We currently have 1 indoor/outdoor kitty, but our chocolate lab recently passed away, so no pups in the home at this time.
“Steven looked after Dipstick with love and affection. From the videos, I could see that my dog enjoyed having lots of butts to sniff. 😂 I definitely will be using Steven’s services again.”
“We are so thankful to Erika and her family for looking after our Dexter so well! We got daily updates and pictures of all the fun he was having. Erika did an amazing job administering his medicine. It was such a relief to have Dexter in such good hands. Thank you so much!”
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.
“Abbey was wonderful! I’m always nervous about leaving our sweet Goldendoodle with people but I felt completely comfortable during our time away and knew Abbey was taking the best care of him. Ford is pretty great too!”
“Tracey made my pup feel at home and so welcomed! She is also about safety and ensuring the utmost care, just like it was her own pup. She sent updates in videos that reassured me of how my pup did during her very first overnight stay. Thankful to have booked with Tracey as it is evident that she has a lot of experience and love in caring for fur babies.”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“Provided great care to our Boston terrier who has separation anxiety. Replied very quick and was flexible with pick up/drop off times which was so helpful! Would book again for sure! :)”
“Riley felt very comfortable innSuzanne’s home and appreciated chasing the squirrels in her back yard. Could not have asked for better treatment. Will be using Suzanne next time we will be back in GP..”
“Theresa and Adrian were wonderful with my dog TJ! Their home is truly perfect for dogs and they were super communicative throughout our stay. Will be booking with them in the future! :)”
“Jessica was amazing with our pups! We've never used Rover before but decided to for a 9 day trip. We are worriers with our babies so we were nervous, but I am so happy we did because they had tons of play time/attention, and it was SO much more affordable than a boarding facility. We received daily pictures, updates, and some videos along the way. We will definitely be working with Jessica again!”
“Ruffles is 14 years old and pretty easy-going. They made every effort to try and play with her, settle her in their bed for a nap, etc. They sent videos throughout the day and responded to every communication promptly so that I knew how she was doing and followed up after the visit to tell me how the day went. I’ve already booked two additional visits for a week each.”
“We were all comfortable with Craig during the initial visit & so was Milo so we confirmed the booking for 3 nights & 4 days. Milo loves taking walks & exploring new surroundings & Craig spoiled him by taking them for walks at least 2-3x a day! Milo usually doesn’t interact well w/ other dogs but Craig sent us pictures of Milo walking & sleeping side by side with another dog. Milo was so calm that he never even barked when we picked him up. We’re happy to have found Craig & hope he’ll be available whenever we need him again.”
“Rachael and Mike were amazing with our precious Mirna. They were extremely accommodating to do a meet & greet in short notice and accepted Mirna into their home with open arms! Our pup had SO much fun with them & slept for a full 24 hours after pickup 😅 we would highly recommend them! They didn’t even kick Mirna out when she ruined their Sunday lasagna dinner by knocking it to the ground LOL.”

“Joshua took great care of our 3 kitties while we were out of town. He took the time to come over ahead of time to meet our guys and learn their feeding routine and it was fun and reassuring to get daily photos and updates!”
“Tara's the best! She visited my high-energy cat while I was away for a long weekend, giving him much-needed playtime and providing excellent updates along the way.”
“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.”
About: I love all animals and grew up with dogs, both rescues, one big one small. Although I don’t have a pet of my own now, Rover gives me the chance to give care and spend time with the furry friends that give us unconditional love. I’m currently working freelance so I have the flexibility of making my own schedule, and time to spend giving attention to your pets and whatever needs they have. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own space. My first priority is to make your dog or cat feel comfortable with me.
“My cat spent a week at the home of Amy, James, and their kitty, and it went beautifully! They are terrific and knowledgable caretakers, their home gave my cat all kinds of safe-but-delightful new landscapes to explore, and Amy sent the best updates and photos I've ever gotten from a petsitter. My cat clearly had as much fun during her travels as I did on mine. I'm very grateful.”
“Laura is an A+ pet sitter. She was wonderful with my two very shy cats. She is very conscientious and reliable, and obviously loves animals. I would not hesitate to hire her again to care for my pets.”
“Heather was great with my cats while we were away for 3 days. They get nervous with new people but she was very gentle and had them come out and check her out when she came over. I felt confident leaving them in her care and she did a great job taking care of them. I would recommend her for your pet care! She was friendly and thorough and sent lots of pictures.”
“Monica was great with my kitties! I will definitely rebook with her for future visits. It was great to feel that my furbabies were well looked after while I was gone. Great, consistent communication - photos, videos, updates, etc. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“My kitties appreciate Chetoya’s visits. They’re super shy but will come peek out and eat when they see her❤️❤️ She is responsible and always responds quickly. Thank you!”
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.
“Khelsi was fantastic watching our Cat! We had no issues and felt reassured that she was watching her. She was super responsive, and sent many update pics. We had such a great experience and we would definitely have her watch Phoebe again, and recommend her services! Thank you Khelsi!”
“Keira did a great job taking care of my rescues, a 13-year-old boxer mix and a 2-year-old mastiff mix, on very short notice and provided up to four drop-in visits to let them out, walk them, and feed them. She provided plenty of communication and came over the day before my early-morning departure flight to meet with me, the dogs, and get to know them, my house, and the neighborhood, which was great. My son had been watching them for the past two years, so I hadn't needed anyone else. But he's going away to college, and I needed to find someone reliable and local, and I'll definitely use Kiera going forward! I'm so grateful I found her on Rover and look forward to having her help again.”
“Abbey gave us peace of mind while we were traveling, knowing our kitties were safe and looked after. She even brought in all the packages that arrived while we were gone. Much appreciated!”

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.

Safety is top priority, and your pet is in good hands. Upon request with unfenced yards, leash walking available.

“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.”
“Tara took great care of our dog Marvin—this was the second time they’ve watched him, and both experiences have been excellent. They were responsive, reliable, and clearly have a natural way with animals. Marvin was happy and relaxed when we picked him up and excited to return for his second stay, which says a lot. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again and highly recommend them as a sitter.”

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: Coming from a home of both large shelter dogs and purebred chihuahuas I’ve cared for dogs from all walks of life. I’ve cared for food agressive and dog agressive dogs, but my professional dog watching has mostly been elder dogs. Whatever the case I’m able to medicated as well as accommodate to your pups needs! I’m currently in between jobs as recently the season ended for my past job. That gives me all the more time to give your pet the time and attention they need! I am flexible! I will accommodate your pet’s every need! Ranging from high-need pets to low-need pets, I aim for maximizing their comfort and happiness. Adaptability is my strong-suit.
“Heather was awesome! Rocket was super excited to meet her during the first visit and I knew it will be smooth sailing the rest of the way. Great pictures and videos during walks, good communication to let me know how everything went and very quick to respond. Will recommend Heather to anyone that needs their pet walked or watched for a period of time. Thanks for all your help. Very much appreciated.”
“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!”

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 :)”
“Megan helped out giving our big baby his walks this week. She was great and Bennie (our 100 lb rottie) quicklyfell in love. He was looking out the window longingly for her by day 2. Thank you, Megan!”
About: professionally, I have taken care of pets for the last 3 years, ranging from dogs to cats to birds to lizards, with care ranging from normal sittings to walks, to overnight work as well. Personally, I have taken care of pets my whole life, currently either six cats and a big dog (and a gecko). Dogs have always been drawn to me it seems, with all of them (save for one 😅) growing to love me in time. Let me add your pet to that list! I am as malleable as the client needs me to be. Obviously that can change around holidays sometimes, but generally I am super available and almost always by my phone if needed. I unfortunately cannot offer boardings as I have a dog and that would not be fair to her. However, when I do sittings, especially overnight ones, my goal is to leave the pet parent’s as close to how it looked when I got there.
About: As a dog owner of 15 years and a trusted caregiver of dogs beyond my own, I am confident in my ability to provide safe, reliable, and loving care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends and family have consistently trusted me to look after their dogs because they know I am dependable, hard-working, and genuinely love animals. I am currently in-between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I'm available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate care on an as-needed basis. Since I am new to Rover and looking to become more familiar and comfortable with the platform, I am currently focused solely on dog walking services. However, I am open to caring for pets in my home in the future as I gain more experience through Rover. I have a fenced-in yard and currently do not have any pets living in my home. I'm comfortable allowing dogs to roam freely indoors, as long as they are well trained and have previous exposure to being left alone outside of their crate.
About: I have been taking care of family and friend’s pets ever since I can remember. I have experience with a multitude of household animals with different needs! I have fostered and found homes for 8 pets! I have experience with senior pets and administering medications as needed. I will be available most evenings and weekends. I work a full time job during the morning and afternoon during the week but would be happy to help outside of those hours and potentially in the morning/lunch time on my remote days. Every pet will be treated as I do my own! They will have all the belly scratches, love and attention they need. I am happy to groom, play fetch, and whatever else will make them happy and healthy!
About: Why Pet Parents Choose Me 🐾Trusted by repeat local clients - References available. 🐾Known for being reliable, caring, and communicative. 🐾Certificate in Cat and Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) 🐾5 years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant 🐾Fostering experience, including raising bottle-fed kittens and fostering a DACC rescue dog who was once on death row - who now has the happiest forever home! Hi, I’m Monica DeSpain— a lifelong animal lover, experienced pet sitter, and proud pet mom to one sweet senior dog and three quirky cats. I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years, and I truly love what I do. My background includes 5 years working at two veterinary hospitals as a veterinary assistant, volunteering at the animal shelter, and fostering pets in my home. These experiences gave me a strong foundation in animal care long before I officially started offering pet sitting. Since August 2024, I’ve been providing trusted, compassionate pet sitting services to families in the Grosse Pointe area. I also currently run a small online business from home, which gives me the flexibility to offer weekday and weekend visits, dog walking, and personalized drop-in care. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets — not just for feeding and potty breaks, but for love, attention, and consistency. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level — and I meet them where they’re at. Whether it’s energetic play, gentle senior care, medication routines, or just being a calm presence, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. My schedule is flexible and I do my best to accommodate yours. Let’s work together to plan for your pets needs. I should be able to accommodate most schedules. I will care for your pet with the same loving, caring and kindness that I have for my own pets. Most animals find me easy to be comfortable around.
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.

“Angela was great! She made Dobby feel comfortable, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing while I was away. Now he's home and crashed out from all the fun.”
“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.”
About: Hi, my name is Carissa! I am experienced in caring for many animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and even farm animals. I owned an operated an open-play dog boarding and daycare facility in Southern California for five years (from 2014 through 2019) serving over 300 furry clients- all different sizes and personalities. (My old Facebook page with reviews can be seen on facebook by searching CarissaBennettCanineCare). Since moving back to my home-state of Michigan I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years in a general practice clinic, and am able to confidently provide first aid, as well as administer oral, topical, and injectable medications to pets in my care. Additionally, I am comfortable with caring for senior and special needs pets. I love all animals like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furbaby while you are away! I am available all day Fridays-Mondays. Perfect for long weekend trips! I do work to Tuesdays-Thursdays, 8am-5pm, but I am available in the evening on Thursdays for drop-off if needed (for an early Friday morning departure, etc.). I am available for drop-in visits Friday-Monday as well, and can also schedule drop-in visits between 6-8 pm Tuesday-Thursdays. Your pet would have tons of love in our home, with access to all living spaces and our large fenced-in yard. We currently have 1 indoor/outdoor kitty, but our chocolate lab recently passed away, so no pups in the home at this time.
“Steven looked after Dipstick with love and affection. From the videos, I could see that my dog enjoyed having lots of butts to sniff. 😂 I definitely will be using Steven’s services again.”

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.
“Abbey was wonderful! I’m always nervous about leaving our sweet Goldendoodle with people but I felt completely comfortable during our time away and knew Abbey was taking the best care of him. Ford is pretty great too!”
“Tracey made my pup feel at home and so welcomed! She is also about safety and ensuring the utmost care, just like it was her own pup. She sent updates in videos that reassured me of how my pup did during her very first overnight stay. Thankful to have booked with Tracey as it is evident that she has a lot of experience and love in caring for fur babies.”
“Provided great care to our Boston terrier who has separation anxiety. Replied very quick and was flexible with pick up/drop off times which was so helpful! Would book again for sure! :)”
“Riley felt very comfortable innSuzanne’s home and appreciated chasing the squirrels in her back yard. Could not have asked for better treatment. Will be using Suzanne next time we will be back in GP..”
“Theresa and Adrian were wonderful with my dog TJ! Their home is truly perfect for dogs and they were super communicative throughout our stay. Will be booking with them in the future! :)”
“Jessica was amazing with our pups! We've never used Rover before but decided to for a 9 day trip. We are worriers with our babies so we were nervous, but I am so happy we did because they had tons of play time/attention, and it was SO much more affordable than a boarding facility. We received daily pictures, updates, and some videos along the way. We will definitely be working with Jessica again!”
“Rachael and Mike were amazing with our precious Mirna. They were extremely accommodating to do a meet & greet in short notice and accepted Mirna into their home with open arms! Our pup had SO much fun with them & slept for a full 24 hours after pickup 😅 we would highly recommend them! They didn’t even kick Mirna out when she ruined their Sunday lasagna dinner by knocking it to the ground LOL.”
“Renee took absolutely outstanding care of our golden retriever, Charlie, while we were on vacation. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands. She treated Charlie like her own—making sure he was well-exercised, well-fed, and showered with attention and affection. Renee kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant the world to us while we were away. It was clear from Charlie’s happy demeanor when we returned that he had been loved and cared for every single day. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Renee to anyone looking for truly exceptional pet care.”
“Nani had a longer stay with Cody and I had no concerns! He did a great job following additional instructions due to the longer stay and kept me updated throughout my trip. I feel confident in Cody and his ability to intervene and mediate between dogs in case any overexcitement or aggression happens. I feel comfortable leaving Nani with him knowing she’s in good hands!”
“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
