“Sabrina was a great sitter for our one year old boxer. Her fenced in yard, experience with many dogs, and kindness made the experience very comforting for a first timer.”
“Emily took excellent care of our dog while we were away. She provided updates and photos of him. He came home clearly happy and was well taken care of by her. Will for sure use her again when we need to. Highly recommend”
“Once again Rachel has done a remarkable job caring/boarding our golden retriever Macallan. She provided timely photos of Macallan during his 10 day stay. Macallan is something I never worry about when I travel when he is in Rachel’s care.”
“My dog, Maddie, stayed with Dan for 2 days/1 night. She was happy and tired when I picked her up at the end of her stay! Dan and his wife took very good care of her and treated her like part of the family. Dan is very responsive and helpful with answering questions and he sent plenty of pictures and videos with updates on how she was doing.”
“My Dog, Buffy, stayed with Matt for a week. She is 14 years old and she's a nervous girl. Matt was so good with her! He was with her night and day. He fed her according to my instructions. She has very few teeth left. He has a sweet dog ,Memphis, who was very good with Buffy too. I would highly recommend Matt to take care of your pet!”
“Great communication, gave a good recap of how my dog did and paid attention to his anxiety and how he didn’t seem to tolerate the heat despite walking later in the day, and cut a walk short because she was concerned by his panting.”
“Colby had a great stay at your house! She can be skiddish, but not this time. She ate, took over your chair and had fun exploring the fenced in yard. Thank you so much for treating her like family!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.

“Amy and Mia are great. Both were wonderful hosts for our dog Ellie. She loved her time with them. Amy was very accommodating to Meet & Greet with us on short notice and made us feel at ease. Amy is very personable and we enjoyed talking with her. Ellie felt like she was HOME away from home and got to hang with another furry friend. What fun!! Ellie was walked and well taken care of during her stay. We received updates and photos. We were blessed to have found such a caring sitter for Ellie. Thank you.”

“Neeko loved staying with this wonderful family and they really seemed to enjoy having him. Actually, even though he was happy to see me, he didn’t seem to want to leave. That’s the best compliment of all, if you ask me. Will definitely ask them to take care of my pup again when the need arises.”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”

“Second time booking with Taylor and I’m glad I did! She goes above and beyond. She took great care of my apartment and my cats. She takes lots of good pics :) My door lock happened to break, (no fault of hers!), and she stayed late and communicated everythinggg with me, offered to call maintenance, whatever was needed. Will definitely be booking with her again :) I know things will be handled while I’m away. Thanks Taylor! <3”
“Allison took wonderful care of our cat, Walter. She made sure he had his wet food, spent time playing with him, and gave him lots of love and treats. When we got home, he seemed happy, relaxed, and very content, which gave us so much peace of mind. It's obvious that Allison genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and we're grateful to have found her. We're looking forward to having her continue checking in on Walter each week. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone kind, dependable, and caring to look after their pets.”
“Heather was excellent and took care of our dog and cats while we were out of state for 10 days. She set up a meet and greet with us before hand and then stopped over to meet the pets and learn how to take care of them. She was great at communicating and sent us updates and photos each visit. We will absolutely contact Heather again when we need a pet sitter. Thank you Heather!”

About: Ive taken care of friends and personal pets since I was a child. I worked at a pet boarding and vet facility for a few years that helped broaden my knowledge of pet care including how to administer meds and help create stress free situations for various temperamental cats and animals.
About: Although I do not currently own any cats, I grew up in a home with them and have extensive hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages. My parents still have cats, giving me ongoing opportunities to help care for them whenever needed. I am dependable when it comes to feeding, playing, cleaning litter boxes, and providing companionship. Whether your cat enjoys active playtime, quiet cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I will make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I am also happy to accommodate any special care instructions or routines to help keep your cat happy and maintain the consistency they’re used to. From energetic kittens to senior cats, I understand that every cat has a unique personality and individual needs. I treat every cat with the patience, respect, and affection they deserve, and I will care for yours as if they were my own.

Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I truly couldn’t imagine a home without them.

“Reyna was wonderful! My 15 month old English Setter had a great day playing with the kids and a couple of other dogs. Reyna sent tons of photos throughout the day and was so easy to communicate with. Norman was clearly in good hands. We’ll definitely be back!”
About: I have pet care experience of all kinds including breeding and stud service, shots and weening. We have a large open floor plan with a 4 stall garage to roam. Price will vary if dog is not fully potty trained or in heat during their stay. I am a stay at home entrepreneur allowing me to be present with pets while they are here. I am also a groomer! My husband and I believe this is a great opportunity to be able to love on all kinds of different breeds as our own and a fun way to take care of some of the most precious pets. That being said i will only accept crate trained dogs(for their safety) they need to be able to be crated safely while we are away for a short or longer amount of time. There are no cats or dogs here (unless confirmed by you that its okay to board at the same time as another families pet) so you won't have to worry about your pet getting along with anyone else while they are here. Be sure to check your collars and leashes of any wear and tears before dropping them off💛 tell me about your dog and we will see if it will be a good fit🧡
“Puppy is home after his stay, and is happy, clean and very tired! Sitters are extremely responsive and accommodating, will definitely trust them with my boy again!”
About: We are a Christian home with a very active family! I’m thankful that my job allows me to spend most of my days at home with the kids and dog. Our dog is very friendly and loves new visitors. She’s smaller, but loves the big dogs best! My daughter on the other hand loves the smaller dogs. We will happily welcome them all! My dog and I frequent the dog parks, hiking trails, beaches and walks through the town. I used to be a former 4-H member with my childhood dog, so I’ve got many years experience with training and showing. My love and patience is huge for dogs. I prefer a dog to be kennel trained, and come with a crate but an open to discussion. I am very flexible and I will most certainly work with you with whatever you may need. Look forwarding to meeting you and your pup. We are home the majority of our days, tending to our hobby farm, and enjoying time outside. We have a very flexible schedule, and are willing to accommodate. The dogs are always fed separate, and separated when I leave! Pets are allowed on beds, and couches. They will get lots of time outside with us.

“Ashley is a warm and caring sitter and was great with my shy and fearful girl!! She understood that some dogs just need a place to feel comfortable and she provided that. That being said her farm would be like doggie heaven to dogs that want a fun day! I would definitely use her again and don’t hesitate to recommend her to others!!”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 12. Family friends woukd trust me to to take care of their cats and dogs when they went away for a while. I would help take care of the house as well. I love to go for walks with my dogs and go about 3 days a week with my dog Remi. I can watch dogs and cats when my family friends need me too. But also work part time at Pet Supplies Plus so I need a bit more time to plan when I work and when I can stop by and take care of pets. I always make sure pets have fresh food and water, follow their normal feeding schedule, provide exercise and playtime, clean up after them, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I also administer medication if instructed, keep their environment clean and safe, and update owners with photos and messages. In a client's home, I respect their routines and care instructions to help pets feel comfortable while their owners are away.
About: Im a lifelong animal lover who finds so much joy in keeping pets entertained. I have experience with nail trimming, walking, and bathing. I have a flexible schedule for families that work and need pet care. I’m excited to take care of your fur babies, keep them safe, and bring you peace of mind. I currently work part-time as a line cook, since school is out for the summer. I will be attending college in the fall to pursue my dental hygiene degree. I am available Monday, Tuesday ,and Wednesday all day for same day booking or scheduled booking walking, sitting, and grooming. I make it my number one goal that all pets are safe and entertained, while in my care. I am diligent about making sure that doors/gates are latched and keeping a close on your pet at all times. I want to help keep your pet on their routine that makes them happiest. I’m happy to follow specific instruction in order to make your pet feel at home.
“My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to new people/being around people when I’m not present, but Jasmine is so great with him! She was able to meet him prior to becoming his dog walker and he loved her instantly.”
“Taylor was amazing! Yesterday was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about my pup being home alone... Taylor called me at work (per my request) so that I could go over how to get into my house, etc. and she calmed my nerves too :) when she got there, he had tore up his mattress pad in his kennel- she cleaned it up so that he couldn’t eat it. She then walked him, took pictures for me and played with him enough to tire him out for a bit. She was so good with him anc it was so appreciated! ❤️❤️”
“So communicative and took lots of pics! I was so nervous and new to this and Kelsey was great and patient with me and my pup! Will definitely use her for future sitter needs!”
About: I've had pets in my household since I was born, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. I also have animal shelter experience, and I've cared for extended familys' pets as well. I'm currently away at college, but I have two dogs of my own back home. I have some extra time outside of classes and a part time job and am looking to spend that extra time caring for someone's pets, as I miss my own. Depending on how your home is, I'm able to let your pets out for some time outside, give them some playtime, and can feed them if needed.
“Sabrina took our little cavapoo for a walk and had some extra playtime today. This was our first time having Sabrina help us out and we were extremely happy with her communication and care for our pup. She arrived right on time and followed all our instructions perfectly. We loved receiving plenty of pictures of all the fun she had with our puppy. We will definitely use Sabrina again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was young. I love dogs unconditionally and love to play with them, I feed them when needed, I can give baths, and I love to take them on walks. My friends and family have relied on me to dog-sit whenever I was available to do so. I’m currently an MSW student and work part time at the moment. Wednesdays and Fridays will typically be completely free all day. Monday, Tuesdays, and Thursdays I work till 5 PM in Grand Rapids. If services are in Newaygo I’m free at 6 PM once I’m back! I LOVE dogs so this is more of a side thing since I just genuinely enjoy playing and taking care of pups :) I have a fenced in yard and a very playful energetic dog. He is very sweet but he is like our baby so we don’t like to bring other dogs in just because he can get jealous and we don’t like to risk it.
About: My daughter and I are dog sitting for two reasons -- we flat out love dogs and my daughter is saving for college. While supporting my daughter's entrepreneurial spirit your dog will get a vacation of a lifetime. Without getting too deep into my resume, here are some highlights: -Handled five police dogs. 1000's of deployments. -Master Trainer for the International Police Work Dog Association. -Developed and taught a unique dog safety program. Have presented the hands on program from everyone to 1000's of second graders to regional UPS drivers. -Recognized expert witness in court on dog tracking, aggression, training, and deployment. -Over 75 nationally published articles on dog obedience, housing, behavior, training, etc. -Tested, certified, and trained working dogs from nearly all 50 states and several countries. (This year I've had dog teams travel to my home from Montana, Florida, Iowa, etc for assistance). I do all this because I simply love interacting with dogs. The love has spread to my 13 year old daughter. I currently have a very fun, young, and goofy dog -- a Vizsla named "Ranger." He clearly isn't a working dog and isn't a picture of obedience perfection. (I only mention this to let you know that despite my resume your dog doesn't have to be perfect and is coming into a very fun and loving household!) We've truly been a dog centered household for 20 years. My wife is a literal Saint! My private dog training rates, and I've turned down much more work than I've accepted, runs 10x the Rover.com rate we are charging. This is truly a venture that partners up youth business and the love of dogs. Long live Capitalism, dogs, and the USA!
About: I have had pets my entire life. I knew very young that I wanted to work with animals. I have a great love and compassion for them. I will take great care of your babies! I have a lot of experience caring and working with dogs. I have hobby farm experience (dogs, cats, chickens and a horse) as well. I am a Licensed Veterinary Nurse, therefore, I am educated in many aspects of caring for your pet. I know what to look for in case of illness, injury, etc. I can also do some other tasks, like toe nail trims, ear cleanings, etc. I am a dependable, trustworthy person who knows how important your pets are to you. I look forward to caring for your pets and/or walking your dog.
About: I have been with rover, dog bording, since 2018. I love animals, they are my favorite. I pet every dog I see. I have also been around animals my whole life. When I was younger I had a dog named rocky, he was a cocker spaniel and a beagle mix, I had him for 13 years. When we had to put him down part of my soul left, he was my best friend. I know what its like to love your beautiful animals, through hard times they are always there for us. They are all created with beautiful souls, we are so lucky to have something like that by our sides. With that being said, I would love to take in your pet as if it were my own. Thank you for reading. Ps.I do NOT have cats or any animals. For some reason it says I have cats. 🤷♀️ I currently am a stay at home mom so I am able to be with your pups all day! I am able to get to know your dog and they dont think im a stranger when they come back! I have a lot of space to take your dog for a walk. We walk in the morning and I take them for a long walk before bed, and to crate if needed.
About: I have experience providing both overnight pet care and daily drop-in/walk visits for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and ages. I enjoy caring for animals and believe dogs thrive with consistent attention, daily exercise, and loving care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping pets company, I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work in a school, so I currently have weekends available and I will have summer available to provide daily walks in a few weeks. Safety and fulfilling needs is my number one priority when I have a pet in my care. I will ensure that walks or visits are safe for your pet and that its needs are being met.
About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to a 10-year-old son and a 3-year-old daughter, along with our two dogs, Nike and Max. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I truly couldn’t imagine a home without them. Both of my children have grown up around dogs and have learned to be gentle, respectful, and loving with animals. Creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care is something I take seriously. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so my goal is to make you feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. Every pet deserves plenty of love, attention, exercise, and individualized care, and I’ll make sure they receive exactly that. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member and provide them with the love and care they deserve! Before We Meet To help me give your pet the best possible experience, please let me know about: * Any medical conditions or medications * Food allergies or dietary restrictions * Favorite toys, treats, or activities * Triggers, fears, or behavioral concerns * Your pet’s daily routine and any special instructions * Anything else you’d like me to know to help your pet feel happy, safe, and comfortable I look forward to meeting you and your best friend!

“Sabrina was a great sitter for our one year old boxer. Her fenced in yard, experience with many dogs, and kindness made the experience very comforting for a first timer.”
“Emily took excellent care of our dog while we were away. She provided updates and photos of him. He came home clearly happy and was well taken care of by her. Will for sure use her again when we need to. Highly recommend”
“Once again Rachel has done a remarkable job caring/boarding our golden retriever Macallan. She provided timely photos of Macallan during his 10 day stay. Macallan is something I never worry about when I travel when he is in Rachel’s care.”
“My dog, Maddie, stayed with Dan for 2 days/1 night. She was happy and tired when I picked her up at the end of her stay! Dan and his wife took very good care of her and treated her like part of the family. Dan is very responsive and helpful with answering questions and he sent plenty of pictures and videos with updates on how she was doing.”
“My Dog, Buffy, stayed with Matt for a week. She is 14 years old and she's a nervous girl. Matt was so good with her! He was with her night and day. He fed her according to my instructions. She has very few teeth left. He has a sweet dog ,Memphis, who was very good with Buffy too. I would highly recommend Matt to take care of your pet!”
“Great communication, gave a good recap of how my dog did and paid attention to his anxiety and how he didn’t seem to tolerate the heat despite walking later in the day, and cut a walk short because she was concerned by his panting.”
“Colby had a great stay at your house! She can be skiddish, but not this time. She ate, took over your chair and had fun exploring the fenced in yard. Thank you so much for treating her like family!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.
“Caroline was AMAZING with our two girls - she gave us updates with pictures and our girls had an AMAZING time with Gator! Would HIGHLY recommend Caroline for any visits and we will be back again ❤️”
“Amy and Mia are great. Both were wonderful hosts for our dog Ellie. She loved her time with them. Amy was very accommodating to Meet & Greet with us on short notice and made us feel at ease. Amy is very personable and we enjoyed talking with her. Ellie felt like she was HOME away from home and got to hang with another furry friend. What fun!! Ellie was walked and well taken care of during her stay. We received updates and photos. We were blessed to have found such a caring sitter for Ellie. Thank you.”
“Felix was amazing with our baby Lola while we were away. He sent us frequent updates and pictures, which made us feel completely at ease during our vacation. It was clear that Lola was loved and well taken care of. We’re so grateful for Felix and would absolutely trust him again.”
“Neeko loved staying with this wonderful family and they really seemed to enjoy having him. Actually, even though he was happy to see me, he didn’t seem to want to leave. That’s the best compliment of all, if you ask me. Will definitely ask them to take care of my pup again when the need arises.”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”
“Paige and Matthew are awesome. Super responsive with booking and with updates. Percy made new friends and had fun playing all week. Poor guy is exhausted and happy!”
“I can’t even put into words how awesome Rayna and her family are!! I needed doggie care for a long weekend very last minute and she was very willing to take in and love my two fur babies! My dogs were sooo happy there and I was very worried about my old dog since he’d never been boarded but he was so happy and I got a lot of updates!! Let’s just say buddy and Frankie will be back!! Xoxoxo thank u so much”
“Megan was great with Cassius. He stayed with her for four nights over Thanksgiving while we went out of town. She made him feel at home and went out of her way to make sure that he was comfortable and learned his personality pretty quickly. Megan is very sweet and able to handle our 95lb toddler with patience. She was able to give him medicine, take him for a walk, and play lots of fetch in her fenced in backyard. Megan kept us updated daily and send photos and videos. I would happily board Cassius with her again and would vouch for her ability to befriend pups of all sizes.”
