Highly-rated overnight sitters - Samaria
“First time using Rover with our Dog. Allan did a great job watching our dog. He provide updates daily with pictures and was very responsive to messages. Would highly recommend and would definitely have Allan watch our Dog again. Thanks Allan!”
“Jayden and his wife Lisa are amazing dog sitters. I left my dog Buddy with them over two weeks while flying outside of the country. They we're very flexible and attentive to all of my requests, and promptly communicated any changes with him while in their care. Buddy and their dog Redford became fast friends and Buddy quite clearly loved spending time with their kids, making a bed out of their trampoline. It was so nice to get updates and see just how much fun they had with him. Buddy says hi and thanks again!”
“Zurijanne is absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of our puppy. She was very understanding, accommodating, patient and overall great. We highly recommend her to care for your animals !”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“If you’re fortunate enough to have the opportunity for Aunt Janelle to watch your pups, you absolutely should! She took our athletic, high energy dog on walks, played fetch, and spoiled him rotten with love and cuddles!! She sent photos and videos of Cody having a great time throughout his stay. It was easy to enjoy my trip knowing that Janelle was taking such great care of our fur son. I could go on for days about how she’s the best choice to watch your pup-from start to finish. She cares about the safety of every dog she watches and doesn’t accept pets that she doesn’t trust. Thank you so much for taking in our big baby boy and treating him like your own!!!”
“What can I say about Kristie? She was incredible with my pup. He’s a bit of a finicky boy, and this was his first experience not at a kennel while dad was away. After asking great questions to get an understanding m, we did a meet and greet and Reggie seemed to enjoy, so we went ahead with the booking. Throughout my 7 day trip, I got plenty of updates and pics (peep the gallery). Kristie took the time to get to know the pup, checked in with me to get insights, and tailored her interactions and expectations to match my goober’s needs. 10/10 recommend, and hope to rebook whenever I need a sitter!”
“Mina did a great job. The meet and greet went well and she does plenty of pictures and videos multiple times a day. Our dog seemed to enjoy his time there as well! Would highly recommend.”
“Sandy is amazing! This is our third time using her and Daisy absolutely loves her. Daisy is very hyper and Sandy has no problem with her. I highly recommend using her.”
“Paige was great with Pebbles. Appreciate her willingness to take on our nervous & anxious pup. Pebbles seemed to get along great with everyone including Eddie, so good first stay all the way around.”
“My wife and I were traveling and needed to find boarding for our dog Chloe. We found Arling and Mary, and our experience with them was nothing short of wonderful! We met them for a meet-and-greet, where we discussed boarding expectations and Chloe's needs while Chloe had the opportunity to explore their residence. We were impressed by Arling's questionnaire sheet, which he used to take meticulous notes about Chloe and her needs and routines. We felt at ease and very confident that Chloe was in good hands. Drop off was smooth, and we received regular picture updates throughout Chloe's stay. When it was time for pick up, Arling and Mary helped bring Chloe and her stuff out, and also helped load things into my vehicle. They are very kind and personable people, and it is reflected in how well they took care of Chloe. I'm pretty sure they spoiled Chloe more than we do! I would 100% recommend them as Rover providers, and look forward to booking with them again!”
“My dog always has a great time staying here. He gets plenty of playtime and exercise, is well cared for, and enjoys his boarding. Maria provides clear communication and pictures during the stay so we know he’s in good hands!”
“Nea’s time with Mary went so well! We will definitely book with Mary in the future. She sent pictures videos of Nea while we were away and also sent us texts everyday letting us know how she was doing. Nea came home tired from getting to play with Mary’s sweet dogs. We are grateful she had a great time. Thank you!”
“Logan and Ellie were nothing but amazing dog sitters for my dog. My dog struggles with really bad anxiety and they made sure the keep a close eye on her and had amazing patience and understanding than anyone I’ve seen. They kept me updated all the time and made did an amazing job of communicating any concerns or asking questions. They were knowledgeable in how to properly care for dogs and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter. Rosemary seemed very satisfied and that makes me satisfied, she’s not an easy dog to care for so anyone who can handle her has my respect and appreciation”
“Really enjoyed having Kristie care for Finn. He seemed to get along well with her dogs, and she stayed in contact with us, sending pictures along the way. He came back home healthy and happy, so we can't ask for much more!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased about the care my dog received staying at Oscar’s home. It gave me great peace of mind getting the photos and videos every day I was away, and I brought home such a calm & happy girl who had the time of her life playing with other dogs in the big backyard. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook!”
“-Very organized and professional -Flexible and accommodating -Firm and affectionate with the pup -Plenty of attention and stimulation, balanced with down time I hope to leave my pet here again.”

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician at a shelter I used to volunteer for, and have had my own dogs and cats my entire life. I’ve recently gone part-time and would enjoy walking your pets or stopping in for those needed potty breaks. I used to walk dogs for the shelter I now work at. I also foster animals for them, most dogs and puppies. I work at the shelter Thursdays and Fridays. I am available other days of the week on a part-time basis. I don’t have preferred days in mind at this time. I will certainly follow all instructions provided and will treat your pet as my own while in my care.

“Honestly, probably the best cat sitter I’ve ever had. Hannah is incredibly kind, communicative, and truly cares about the pets she watches. She went above and beyond for my cats, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our cat sitter Paige! From the moment we met him, it was clear how much he genuinely loves animals. He took excellent care of both of our cats, including one who requires insulin injections twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. He was communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly kind, keeping us updated and making sure our cats were happy and well cared for. We came home to two relaxed, well-loved kitties. We were so happy with the experience that we’ve already booked him again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for years for a few clients. Looking to meet some new fur babies. I will stay in your home for the pet's comfort. I am comfortable walking most dogs and administering medications. I do work a part time job and am in college during the fall and winter. I haven’t needed to decline a job for these though. I can easily make time for your pets. I will follow whatever rules you have when letting the dog out and going for walks. I will make sure your home stays clean for your return.
“Jessica was awesome! She sent pictures and updates regularly. She tidied the house up before we got home. She also was able to be booked with short notice, and still squeezed in a meet and greet prior to us leaving. I very much recommend Jessica & we will book again with her in the future.”
About: I understand that people need services for their pets as most people are heading back to work after being remote for over a year. Most people are heading back to the office four times a week in 2026. I work from home three to four days a week so I am able to provide the extra care at an affordable rate in the comforts of your own home. I regularly house sit for different animals. I have watched horses, lambs, dogs, & cats. I grew up with always having pets and never without. I’m available at different times throughout the week and mornings on the weekend since I work full time. Since I work from home, I would love to help other pet owners. Feel free to message for additional details. I took a break from Rover due to the loss of my golden retriever. But I am happy to be back and assist anyone. I can stop over to crate, let out for a potty break, house sit, and take your pet for walks. I do will offer boarding in my home for the right person. I’m pretty flexible in my time so please reach out for questions that you may have. This will allow us to get to know each other. I make sure your animal is my number one priority in my home or yours! If I have to stay a little longer; that’s totally okay. I hope you don’t mind if I bring my work laptop if my stay is over an hour.
“Chelsea was amazing! She took such great care of our cats and gave great updates. One of our cats usually gets really stressed when we’re away, but he was so happy and relaxed this time with her checking in. I’m so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”
About: I grew up on a farm, so there were always strays around. I was the type of kid that would find an animal and bring it home. Recently, I have taken in three stray newborn kittens! I love to provide them with a clean environment to play and relax! I also don’t mind administering medication.
“Victoria was great with our cats Zuna and Nabi, she allowed them to get to know her and feel comfortable on their terms. Victoria had great daily updates on her drop in visits and took the cutest photos of the cats!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Samaria
About: My wife and I have taken care of dogs for a long time. We understand that every dog has special needs. We are receptive to all breeds I am currently retired and my wife works part time. We have the time to give your dog special attention. Very little time will your dog be alone We have a fenced in yard with a suburban setting. We have a puppy that loves other dogs. Our dog is a yorkie/toy poodle. We can work with you for your dog to have a pleasant stay
“Carrie was amazing! She was super quick to respond and so nice. She provided updates and pictures of my puppy, Ruby, throughout the day. Ruby loved running around Carrie’s yard and playing with her two dogs. She definitely had a great day staying with Carrie.”
“It was the first time we’d left our little one with a dog sitter, and we were a little worried because ever since we adopted her, she’s always been very shy and tends to be afraid of strangers, but Jenifer was amazing with Hazel. She was extremely friendly and kept us updated on our little ball of fur, making her feel like she was part of a second family. My husband and I are very happy—we’ll definitely be back.”
“Andrew is a kind heart and knows how to look after dogs. My Carly has enjoyed her stay with him immensely playing with her buddy, Andrew‘s dog Dante I’m older and it’s hard to give my dog the exercise and stimulation that she needs. I know she’s in great hands with Andrew.”
“Great care of my little golden pup!! I feel totally safe leaving her in Sadeys care to help me out for long work days. Twigg spent her day running around in the spacious backyard and playing with her toys. She was totally beat after coming home and slept the rest of the night. Shes excited to go back later this month. I know puppies are exhausting and a lot of work so I appreciate Sadey taking care of her all day. I would highly recommend any of her services for your pups needs.”
About: Neighbors and family have relied on me to care for their dogs when going out of town or away for a few days or weeks at a time. I’ve had dogs around me my whole life. I work a part time job currently through the summer. I am able to care for your pet(s) before and after work and throughout the days I don’t work. I have a fenced in yard. I have one dog and his name is Charlie. He is 10 years old and is a Pekingese chihuahua mix.
“He did a phenomenal job! I booked last minute and he was very accommodating. He brought Dakota into his home with Kya and Roo, and made him feel very welcome.”
“Celene is legitimately the best dog sitter you could ask for. She not only is an early riser but is a night owl. Celene sends updates and ask questions without even being asked. She not only puts effort in towards jaxsons training she has even went out of her way to teach us on how we could be doing different/better. Celene also makes sure that jaxson gets the proper food/water/bathroom breaks as he needs. He doesn't come back hungry, needing to potty, or beat up. Penny, celenes dog, is hands down the cutest little thing I've ever seen. When I get there she is happy to greet me at the door with kisses and tail wags. Jaxson also loves penny and always comes back PROPERLY wore out. My final thoughts are if I could had another grandma I would ask her. Shes been there for us EVERY time we've need her and that's at the end of the day all I could ask.”
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up — we currently have one silly golden retriever! My first job was working at a local dog kennel — I worked there all of high school. I fed all the pups, gave medications, cleaned, gave baths and even did toe nails/light grooming. I also often farm sit for some friends of ours, which is always a treat! I’m so excited to possibly expand and meet some more fur babies :) I’m a stay at home mom and always available for the animals. They just become part of the family and play outside with us if they like, take naps with us — and get plenty of cuddles and love. We typically wake up anywhere between 7:30am-9am (depending how the baby slept the night before) and we are in bed by midnight at the latest. We start the day with a quick potty trip, then meds and breakfast. Our schedule is completely flexible to fit yours and your pets needs. The dogs mostly have unlimited access to our fenced in back yard ~ 1 acre. I also love to take the pups on walks at different nature trails, if that’s something your pup might enjoy. All of our beds are animal friendly and available for guests, or we can use kennels if that’s what they’re used to at home.
About: Hi! I’m Jaelyn (aka Jae the Fur Nanny 🐾) I’m a full-time pet sitter, which means your fur baby gets 24/7 care, attention, and supervision while they’re with me. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 6 years old and have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and small animals. From energetic puppies to shy or sensitive pets, I take the time to understand each animal’s personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home. ✨ What you can expect with me: • Full-time care (I’m home most/all of the day) • Flexible routines based on your pet’s needs • Plenty of love, playtime, and attention • A calm, cozy environment where pets can relax • Consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing I typically allow pets to free roam, but I also have crates available if that’s what your pet is used to or if you prefer it. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. 💗 My approach: I treat every pet like family. When your pet stays with me, they’re not just being watched—they’re being cared for, loved, and understood. I’m very responsive and easy to reach, and I’m always happy to answer questions or provide updates. Before booking, I’d love to know about: •Your pet’s personality •Any triggers or special needs •How they do around other animals This information helps me give them the best and safest experience possible ✨ I’m so grateful for the opportunity to care for your pet and would love to meet you both! 🐶💕 I am ALWAYS AVAILABLE 💞 I do this full time so your fur baby will have my care 24/7. I always try to be flexible & I am very easy to reach for the most part. I tend to allow them free range of the apartment but it is up to you as the parent on what you feel is best. If needed I have different crate sizes available if your fur baby feels more comfortable sleeping that way. Otherwise they are allowed to sleep wherever they please.
“Elisabeth watched our puppy and did an excellent job! We received lots of pictures and video updates. She was well taken care of and had so much fun! We will be using Elisabeth from now on when we need a dog sitter. 😊”
“I found Beth on rover prior to my relocation to the Ohio area temporarily. I was super nervous leaving my dog but felt at ease after knowing she got to play with other dogs and did well. She spent two days of daycare at Beth’s and didn’t want to leave after the second day! Thank you so much for being a trustworthy dog sitter!”
“Julie was amazing. She took the time to introduce herself and know all the needs of Teddy. Throughout the day she gave constant updates with photos. She was very understanding about mt flexible schedule which she adjusted to.”
About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: Hello! I've been away for a while as my family and I were traveling in an RV for several years. We are home bound for a time, taking a break from nomad life, and I will have limited availability in February, and increased availability starting in March. Looking forward to caring for your fur babies again! The important stuff: It's never too early, or too late to book a visit, and I can accommodate any special diet or oral medication requirements. Final booking subject to initial meet-and-greet, but most pets should be accepted, as long as there are no severe aggression issues. Pictures and videos will be available on request- wouldn't want to bug you at work or interrupt a meeting! Please text me for updates so I know you are able to accept them. The more you ask, the more I'll send! Why I love pet sitting I've had pets for as long as I can remember- Started with a cocker spaniel named buffy when I was a baby, two cats named Oscar and Meijer, no third cat, for obvious naming issue reasons! haha, a rottweiler named Sheba during my pre-teen and teen years, a few temporary fosters in my early 20's, the adoption of my sweet lab mix, Bella, in 2009 from the Houston SPCA, and the craigslist rescue of Holo the husky when we purchased our first home in September of 2012. We currently have two house panther rescues from Paws and Whiskers, Wednesday and Deimos, named by my 7 year old. I can do social drop-ins and feeding for cats or other small animals as well! Also comfortable with reptiles. My experience administering medication: I do not have formal veterinary training to give shots. Please limit meds to the edible/sprayable/droppable kinds. I'm a stay at home mom, and my husband works full time, so my availability is limited around my child's schedule. Typically I'm open nights and weekends, with possible morning visits after meeting and for return customers. I can't offer services in my own home currently, but I'm happy to stop in just for walks and food, or stay for longer social visits to give your pets some extra love and attention.

I am very friendly with dogs and have a way with being trusted easily. I have never been mean or harmful, always friendly and encouraging.
About: Ever since I can remember I’ve had a huge passion for animals. Because of this, as soon as I could work I got various experiences caring for, and working with animals through professional pet sitting, working at a large and small breed petting farm, working at a dog kennel and daycare, and attending a dog grooming school. Through these experiences I’ve had years of hands on training learning to monitor the emotions, health, and overall well-being of each pet (old or young) that I’ve came across. I would love the opportunity to have you trust me in caring for your furry friend, and promise to do whatever I can to give both you and your pet the best possible pet care experience! Currently, pet care is what I base my daily schedule on, so your pup is my top priority! In the late spring, summer, and early fall months I do work part time. If given enough time in advance I am able to set my own schedule, meaning that I can schedule this job around the needs of your fur babies ! To ensure the trust and safety of your pet, I will always take EVERY safety precautions that I can. Before each pet care service I make sure to study all the information I can about your pet to make sure I can give them a personalized safety plan, as well as a caring and stress free environment. Also, I am dog CPR and emergency medicine certified.
“Jay does an amazing job with Annie and sensitive to her needs. I highly recommend Jay to anyone who is in need of a dog walker especially if it's an emergent last minute situation. Thank you Jay you were a major help with Annie.”
“We were a little uneasy about our first time letting someone else take care of our dog, but Teagan has been great with Teemu! She can sometimes be a handful to walk but she seems to be much more well behaved with Teagan. Teagan is very communicative and flexible, she’s been very easy to work with too. We’re very grateful to have found someone who is so great with our dog, she’s made the whole thing very easy! 10/10 recommend!”

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs, families dogs and my own for years. I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility for 6 months before deciding it was not the right fit for me. I came to the conclusion that not all dogs do well in a kennel situation and can't receive the individual care they deserve in that large scale setting. I have cared for and walked dogs that are reactive or scared of people, other dogs, bikes and other things this includes my own dog. I am not an expert but have a good amount of experience, patience and I don't mind a challenge. I currently work part time well trying to start my own business and am looking to supplement with dog walking. House sitting Includes: - Sleeping at clients house. - General pet care feeding/watering playing in yard & snuggles provided. - I will not be at the house 24/7. Pets will not be left alone for more then 6 hours during the day. (I work part time) - 15min walk every other day is included. Walks are not given on the first day of house sitting. - Photo/video updates at least once during the stay more depending on length of stay. I want to meet you and your dog, cat or other pets! Meeting helps to ensure that I am the person you trust with your beloved pet and that your pet is comfortable with me. I try to create a fun yet engaging walk for dogs. I do this by involving treats and asking dogs to do tricks well on walks. I also allow for plenty of sniffing time. I would love to take your dog to the park or walk in your neighborhood. I ensure mutual respect between me and the dogs I walk and care for, this helps to ensure the safety of your dog and myself. I will leave your home as I found it. That means I will clean toilets and floors and whatever else is needed to insure that you come home to house that is as clean as you left it.

I’m pretty flexible in my time so please reach out for questions that you may have. This will allow us to get to know each other. I make sure your animal is my number one priority in my home or yours! If I have to stay a little longer; that’s totally okay. I hope you don’t mind if I bring my work laptop if my stay is over an hour.
About: Just a mom with two older boys that love animals and want to care for and enjoy different animals and teach them some responsibility in the process. I have an alternating schedule with work so it changes every week. Three to four days off every week with all evenings open for drop ins and walks. Yard is 80% fenced with lead leash for bathroom breaks. We currently have one very calm lab mix that nine years old. One older cat that isn’t bothered by anything and two 4 month old kittens that were recently rescued from the shelter.

“Jayden and his wife Lisa are amazing dog sitters. I left my dog Buddy with them over two weeks while flying outside of the country. They we're very flexible and attentive to all of my requests, and promptly communicated any changes with him while in their care. Buddy and their dog Redford became fast friends and Buddy quite clearly loved spending time with their kids, making a bed out of their trampoline. It was so nice to get updates and see just how much fun they had with him. Buddy says hi and thanks again!”
“Zurijanne is absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of our puppy. She was very understanding, accommodating, patient and overall great. We highly recommend her to care for your animals !”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“If you’re fortunate enough to have the opportunity for Aunt Janelle to watch your pups, you absolutely should! She took our athletic, high energy dog on walks, played fetch, and spoiled him rotten with love and cuddles!! She sent photos and videos of Cody having a great time throughout his stay. It was easy to enjoy my trip knowing that Janelle was taking such great care of our fur son. I could go on for days about how she’s the best choice to watch your pup-from start to finish. She cares about the safety of every dog she watches and doesn’t accept pets that she doesn’t trust. Thank you so much for taking in our big baby boy and treating him like your own!!!”
“What can I say about Kristie? She was incredible with my pup. He’s a bit of a finicky boy, and this was his first experience not at a kennel while dad was away. After asking great questions to get an understanding m, we did a meet and greet and Reggie seemed to enjoy, so we went ahead with the booking. Throughout my 7 day trip, I got plenty of updates and pics (peep the gallery). Kristie took the time to get to know the pup, checked in with me to get insights, and tailored her interactions and expectations to match my goober’s needs. 10/10 recommend, and hope to rebook whenever I need a sitter!”
“Mina did a great job. The meet and greet went well and she does plenty of pictures and videos multiple times a day. Our dog seemed to enjoy his time there as well! Would highly recommend.”
“Sandy is amazing! This is our third time using her and Daisy absolutely loves her. Daisy is very hyper and Sandy has no problem with her. I highly recommend using her.”
“Paige was great with Pebbles. Appreciate her willingness to take on our nervous & anxious pup. Pebbles seemed to get along great with everyone including Eddie, so good first stay all the way around.”
“My dog always has a great time staying here. He gets plenty of playtime and exercise, is well cared for, and enjoys his boarding. Maria provides clear communication and pictures during the stay so we know he’s in good hands!”
“Nea’s time with Mary went so well! We will definitely book with Mary in the future. She sent pictures videos of Nea while we were away and also sent us texts everyday letting us know how she was doing. Nea came home tired from getting to play with Mary’s sweet dogs. We are grateful she had a great time. Thank you!”
“Logan and Ellie were nothing but amazing dog sitters for my dog. My dog struggles with really bad anxiety and they made sure the keep a close eye on her and had amazing patience and understanding than anyone I’ve seen. They kept me updated all the time and made did an amazing job of communicating any concerns or asking questions. They were knowledgeable in how to properly care for dogs and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter. Rosemary seemed very satisfied and that makes me satisfied, she’s not an easy dog to care for so anyone who can handle her has my respect and appreciation”
“I couldn’t be more pleased about the care my dog received staying at Oscar’s home. It gave me great peace of mind getting the photos and videos every day I was away, and I brought home such a calm & happy girl who had the time of her life playing with other dogs in the big backyard. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook!”
“-Very organized and professional -Flexible and accommodating -Firm and affectionate with the pup -Plenty of attention and stimulation, balanced with down time I hope to leave my pet here again.”
“Very professional and responsive. Clearly great with dogs as ours were a bit reactive to meeting his dog and he walked us through easing them into becoming best buds! We'd highly recommend and will use Andrew again if we return to the area!”
“Kristin was perfect for our quiet shy dog. It was a first time using any dog sitting service, so my recommendation is meet more than one sitter and trust your gut and heart. Our dog was very comfortable with Kristin and her house/surroundings when we met, and she ate her food the first morning of her stay so I knew she was happy. Thank you, Kristin, for providing this service to other dog owners🥰”
“I can't say enough good about Celene and her puppers! She is super knowledgeable and good with dogs! I can tell that my Charli really liked her! She was well taken care of and I will definitely use her again!”
“Bobbie and her family have dog-sit our puppy before but this was the first time we left her for 6 nights and we couldn’t be happier that we have someone that cares for animals the way Bobbie does. I couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Bosco always enjoys his time with Breanna and Clay. This was his first overnight and they kept us well informed on how he was doing. We'd have no problem boarding there again. Thanks!”
“Erin was amazing with our dog Kenai! She watched him for us while we went on our honeymoon and truly made Kenai feel at home! She sent plenty of updates and pictures to give us space of mind and we could tell Kenai just loved her and her dog Baz when we went to pick him up! I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”
