Highly-rated overnight sitters - Tompkins
“Christine was professional and kind. She not only took our 2 dogs overnight but also came to pick them up for us, at our parents house, while we visited from out of state. She kept us updated with pictures of the dogs playing and resting, etc.”
“Brooklyn was great. Sent plenty of pictures. Ammo was a little timid at first. Brooklyn sent me picture and kept me updated on his comfortability progression and it didn't take long. Work recommend her for sure!”
“Nicole and her family are great with my Bahzi and Harlem. I have used them twice now to watch my babies and will continue to use them if they are available. She is responsive and updates me daily plus the dogs enjoy their time with Nicole and her family. Thanks Nicole!!!”
“Amber took care of my senior cock-a-poo for the day. He is an old guy with issues (deaf, anxiety) and she seemed unfazed by his challenges. I found Amber to be very pleasant and kind, and she and her child are clearly animal lovers! I always worry about my dog staying with anyone, but I felt comfortable leaving him with her. Thank you, Amber!”
“Dublin stayed with Brooke & Buddy for 2weeks. He’s always excited when he realizes he’s staying with Brooke. He’s usually tired after picking him up. And I think he may lose some weight which is a good thing.”
“Rodney and his puppy crew were amazing! He sent pictures and gave updates to let me know that Marshmallow was comfortable and well cared for. Our little girl is looking forward to visiting again!”
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”
“Fantastic experience from quick contact, to ease of dropping off and picking up our dog. Pictures with daily updates were really appreciated. Happy and healthy dog at pick-up said it all. Thank you Sarah!”
“Thanks to Jason and Kristen for taking such great care of Chanel - - my one year old miniature golden doodle. They supplied daily updates and pictures. I would definitely book with them again.”
“Charlie is usually very shy and low energy but with Sabrina and Stella, he had way too much fun! We could tell clearly because it rarely happens that he has been sleeping hard for hours. Attesting to the fact of non-stop very energetic hours spent at Sabrina’s place. 1000% happy and we will be back again. Thanks to Sabrina and family”
“Our pups had a fantastic time with April! She was so welcoming and kind. This was the first time we left them for several days and she made us feel like we left them with a family member and could enjoy ourselves. I highly recommend her!”
About: Dogs have always been a part of our family, and caring for them is something we genuinely love. Over the past 15 years, we’ve shared our home with four dogs, including caring for three into their senior years through age-related and chronic health conditions. We’ve also raised a litter of puppies, giving us experience with young dogs and the extra patience, attention, and consistency they require. Because I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. We have a fully private fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our three dog-loving children have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals. While we’re not looking to add another dog to our family permanently, we’d love to open our home to yours. Our goal is to provide a safe, loving, family environment where every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, allowing me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. Potty breaks, outdoor play, walks (if requested), feeding, medication, and plenty of affection are all easily incorporated into my schedule. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, so they won’t just be supervised—they’ll be part of our family’s day. Whether your pup loves to play, relax, or simply be near people, they’ll receive plenty of attention, companionship, and love while they’re with us. I also make it a priority to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for during their stay. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Because I work from home, your pet will have supervision and companionship throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I take the time to learn each dog’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions, so they can maintain the routine they’re used to at home. Our home has a fully private fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and all dogs are monitored while outside. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of affection, and I treat each guest as if they were one of my own. I also understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take introductions slowly and always prioritize a calm, low-stress environment. Throughout your dog’s stay, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and having a great time.
“Belle was very wel cadred for ad had a great time at Krista's. She and her husband bonded quickly with her and made her feel at home. . Belle had a blast playing with the household dogs in a huge fenced yard.”
“Very responsive to messages! I appreciated the pictures of our dog while they were there and could see how happy Coco was being there! Thank you again! An absolute pleasure and will definitely book again if needed!”
“Susan made me feel very comfortable leaving Cora with her. You can tell she is a true animal lover! She sent updates and pictures and Cora was well looked after. We’ll use her again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Tompkins
“Brooklyn is super sweet and was very communicative which I really appreciate! I’ve never used Rover or any other site to find someone to watch my baby (my elderly cat) so I was pretty anxious, but Brooklyn was great and I will definitely be booking her again if I need someone to watch my baby!”
“Tommi was professional and helpful. I have an older cat and Tommi checked up on his wellbeing and went beyond just cat sitting. Upon returning home my cats were healthy and happy.”
“Veronica did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 cats that don’t get along with each other. She was always at our home when she said she would be, sent pictures and in general showed she cared. She did a great job for us. One of our cats is old and ailing and her notes told details about her. I would totally recommend her to anyone and would use her again. I already gave her a tip for such good work.”
About: While I’m new to caring for other people’s cats, I share my home with two of my own—and if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that cats have their own rules. I know how to give them space when they want it, attention when they ask for it, and how to spot the little signs that tell you something’s off. I’m not just a sitter—I’m a fellow cat parent who gets it.

I work from home and am available 24/7 for anything your pet may require. Your pet will become a part of our family and will get daily walks, snuggles, and play time. As an educator for the past 10 years I've been trusted with caring for 100+ children daily, as a building principal. I have experience supporting families with the most sentive of information and will always provide a loving, safe environment for those in my care.

About: Ever since I was a child I've been taking care of both cats and dogs. I can take care of your friends in any condition! I also specialize in command training alongside discipline in puppies!! I currently work part time at Meijer in the grocery department. My schedule consists of working Friday-Monday or Thursdays-Monday. I work the morning shift for the store which is 4am-12pm. Which will give me the rest of the day to play and care for your furry family members!! If you have more than one furry friend and can easily separate them if needed and make sure they are both calm with each other if they are in the same area watched very carefully. If they need to be crated I can do that too. I will make sure to my fullest ability for your pet to be safe around each other and me during the process.
About: I grew up having at least one dog in my house at all times, and I have taken care of a variety of dogs for friends, family, and neighbors since middle school.

I am working part-time and have a flexible schedule to spend time with your pets! I am available during the day to give your pups the loving they need in your absence, whatever that may be. I am a capable caregiver with a lot of personal experience. I prioritize maintaining the rhythm and routine your pets prefer, whether that be long walks, the safety of a crate, enriching play time, or lots of lovin'.

Pets, snuggles, activity when appropriate, general maintenance. I engage with each dog one on one and ensure that they're being taken care of.
“Wonderful and thorough care. I never worried about my boy while gone for a week. She anticipated needs even I did not (full litter box change) and went above and beyond in other ways as well. She sends lots of updates which was a comfort while away. She cared for my boy cat Zissou as if her own. 1000% recommend! She will be who I use for any future needs.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life! I started out taking care of dogs for my neighbors and family, which eventually led to working at a dog training and boarding facility where I was responsible for daily care, feeding, and walking pups of all sizes. On a personal level, I cared for my own senior Labrador when she was very sick, so I am extremely patient, attentive, and comfortable handling special care or delicate routines. Today, I’m a proud dog parent to Eddie, my 5-year-old Coton de Tulear. Whether your pup needs fun daily walks or gentle, cozy company, I’ll treat them with the exact same love and care I give my own! Taking care of pets is part of my everyday. I have a very open and flexible schedule, I can easily jump throughout the week and on weekends. I spend most of my time hanging out with Eddie, so taking care of your dog fits right in! Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and strictly follow exact routines. My experience working at a boarding facility taught me to always double check leashes, keep gates closed, and stay aware. Plus, nursing my own senior Lab taught me to watch closely for any changes in comfort or behavior. You’ll always get regular photos and updates so you know your pup is safe and happy!
“Jessica did an excellent job looking after my cat while I was gone! She came to my house twice per day to feed my cat, clean her litter, etc. Jessica was thoughtful and gave my cat some new toys for Christmas! While I was gone, Jessica gave me updates each day on how my cat was doing. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: My professional experience includes caring for mischievous kittens, senior cats and finicky felines all with lots of love and compassion for over 10 years in a vet clinic setting and in clients homes. My personal cat experience has been over 30 years with cats of all ages. I have experience with administering medication, feeding, and providing much love and affection.
About: My fiancé and I moved to Eaton rapids not too long ago, we recently got our puppy in June 2025 and he is a wild guy. His name is Loki and he is a lab mixed with German shepherd so he’s got quite the personality. He loves people and other animals but sometimes can be a little extra crazy when he’s playing. I currently have a job right now but I am looking for other jobs to take on for a little while, trying to save some extra money for my wedding! At this time I am not accepting in my home care for dogs but I am more than willing to come to you to care for your fur babies 💞

Perfect for high energy dogs - Tompkins
About: I've had different dogs in the house for my whole life. As a kid my family brought dogs in for foster care. We've taken care of multiple dogs with disabilities, including deaf dogs and partially blind dogs. Dogs get along with me well and I'm good at getting shy dogs to warm up to me. I've also volunteered with the Jackson County Animal Shelter, working with the cats at PetSmart. I've also taken care of relatives'/friends'/neighbors' pets. Currently I spend most of my time at home working on my online classes so I will have plenty of time to spend caring for your dog. On the rare chance that I'm not home at least one of my parents are in the house and will be able to fill in for me while I'm out. The dogs that I own eat at the same time everyday and go out as needed, but if your dogs need to be treated differently it will be easy to change things for them. Just fill me in on what your pet needs to be taken care of properly and I should be able to get it done.

About: Your dog will be my dog while in my care. I am a huge animal lover who has always made my animals a part of my family, not just an animal. Starting May 4th, I will be training for a new job. My training hours will be 8-5, if you can work around those time please reach out. My yard is not fenced so your babies will only be outside when I am out there with them, leashed if required. I do not agree with leaving a dog alone all night when they are already seeing a difference with their family being gone. If they are dog friendly they would have socialization as well with my friends and family dogs so they could get some interaction and extra exercise! I currently work from home so frequent potty breaks or administration of medication would not be an issue. We would be one big happy family all day long My dogs are not crated when I leave the house but do have an extra large one if required for your baby. If you need me to do a drop in visit, my hours for availability are in the air for the next couple of weeks until I am given my new works hours.
“Rodney was great with my Corgi, very patient and understanding. He was also very flexible with timing, which I appreciate. It was a good opportunity for Kix to socialize with a large number of dogs.”
“Susan was such a wonderful puppy sitter for ginger! I can tell ginger really enjoyed her time 😊 we would recommend Susan to anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will definitely be back! Much appreciated!”
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs for over 30 years and have provided backup support for a very successful petting sitting service for over 7 years. I’m currently working part-time. I’m a widow with grown children that live on their own. I have a Pomeranian of my own who is 10 years old. I’m available often. I have a small dog of my own to keep your pup company. Your pup will be leashed when walked around my circular HOA community
“Jason and Kristen have taken such great care of our dog Eddie. He usually has separation anxiety, but always RUNS to their door to be played with and cared for by this family. My requests and quirks are respected, photos are sent and communication response is as close to immediate as one can be. I rest easily knowing my dog is in responsible, caring hands!!”
About: Hi! My name is Kylee, and I'm a reliable and experienced pet caregiver with 6+ years of dog handling and training experience, 13 years of cat care experience, and 5 years of caring for guinea pigs and other small animals. I am also CPR and First Aid certified for cats and dogs, and I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency in every visit. I prefer in-home pet care only (at the client's home), as I have my own pets at home, including 5 dogs and 3 cats. My services include drop-in visits, feeding, walks, playtime, litter box and cage cleaning, medication administration, puppy care, and overnight stays. I have experience with large and small dogs, leash training, basic obedience reinforcement, and high-needs care routines. I treat every pet like my own and focus on maintaining their normal routines while owners are away. I am dependable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide attentive, compassionate care so pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home. My schedule is completely open on the weekends and Wednesdays, and I work part-time Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. But I am available after 4:30 those days. I am only comfortable caring for your animals in their home as I have 5 dogs and 3 cats of my own. All animals are treated as they are my own babies.
About: Through my time training in IPO, I have developed the skills needed to handle high-energy and working breeds with confidence. However, I welcome dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether your dog is a high-drive athlete or a quiet senior, they will find a safe, structured home here. I’m home full‑time on a quiet rural property, so dogs fit naturally into my daily routine. I provide regular outdoor breaks, feeding, exercise, and constant supervision throughout the day. I have a dedicated indoor and outdoor roofed kennel setup with five separate kennels, indoor and outdoor cameras for security, and a secure 16×20 fenced play area. Dogs stay in a clean, safe, structured environment with constant monitoring.
“Bishop enjoyed his first time with Kasey. He's always a little freaked out when I leave him. But he settled in pretty well. Kasey sent lots of photos. Plus her dogs made him feel more comfortable. It was a good experience for hi, Thanks!!”
“She was amazing, I got updates and photos throughout the day. I was nervous leaving him somewhere but he seemed to love it. I will definitely be bringing him back.😊”
About: I have a love for animals big and small. I enjoy exploring and making new experiences with animals. I have experience with elderly and medical needs animals. I work as a nanny and have sometimes weeks off and would love to have an animal to take care of and take places with me.

“Brooklyn was flexible and easy to work with. I will certainly look for her again next time. We met prior to her scheduled walking of my Pomsky, Razia to give her access to my apartment and discuss details. She is very nice and professional. Thanks, again!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my girls while I was out of town today. I know they are always in great hands and you give them lots of attention and play time when I’m not home. They love spending time with you!”
About: Taylor and I have both had animals our whole lives. We have taken care of a large varieties of animals.. cats, dogs, chickens, horses, even a bearded dragon! We are HUGE animal lovers!! We have experience with elderly animals, diabetics and so much more We run a small sourdough bakery out of our home and usually are attending events most weekends. Kelly works from home baking and running her small business. Taylor works an early morning full time job m-f Kelly's schedule changes week to week and is flexible making drop-in times easy to work around We are all about the animal and their comfort level. Whatever they need to be happy and stress free, we are willing to provide. Not to mention having two people means double the attention and double the love! We want your pet to feel like we are apart of their pack!
About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.
About: As a kid i’ve always been surrounded by animals, all kinds! I’ve worked with dogs learning how to shake, sit and lay! I’ve dog sat for multiple families and friends and have extended experience. I’ve also volunteered since middleschool to help animals on the streets and many rescues! Dog sitting isn’t just something to do for money, but for love and a hobby! I am a college student who works part time, so working around my schedule will be pretty easy! I often find myself with free time and would love to use it with animals! I’m a very patient person when it comes to animals, my yard is not fenced but I am more than willing to take a walk as many times as needed!
“I highly recommend Veronica as a dog walker and caretaker. Reliability and responsibility are among Veronica‘s greatest strengths. She communicates effectively with pet owners by providing regular updates and photos.”
About: Hi! I’m Mariah, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to a big, goofy dog and two sweet cats. While I’m new to professional pet care, I’ve spent years caring for my own animals and know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting—and I bring a calm, playful, and structured approach to every visit. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a good walk, or keeping your pets company while you’re away, I treat every animal like one of my own: with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to give you peace of mind—and your pets a new friend they can feel safe and happy with. I currently am a Preschool Teacher so I work Monday-Friday 8am-4:30. So I’m available on weekends, a week in October for my Fall Break and during breaks (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break) for dog sitting. Summers I’m off so I will adjust my days and times when summer draws nearer. Whether I’m visiting your home for a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I do everything I can to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely—mealtimes, meds, playtime, litter boxes, the works—and always give your pet the attention, affection, and patience they deserve. For dogs, I bring a calm, structured energy to walks and make sure they get both exercise and fun. For cats, I understand that comfort and familiarity are everything—I move at their pace and respect their boundaries while still making time for play or snuggles if they’re into it. Every visit is about making your pet feel safe, seen, and loved—just like they would with you

“Lisa is delightful and a great communicator. She is reliable and so good with my senior chihuahua mix, Mika. It is very comforting to know Lisa also has a senior chihuahua, and is very experienced with dog care. I am happy Mika seems to really enjoy her walks with Lisa and was able to get comfortable with her fast. Lisa takes her time and is in tune with Mika’s needs. I feel bad on days I have to leave Mika alone at home for so long for work, so it means the world to me that Lisa makes sure her time with Mika is quality bonding.”

About: I am a college student at Grand Valley State University. I am home for the summer, I have grown up with animals my whole life, and I absolutely love them! Pet care fits into my routine by being something I prioritize every day. Since I have five cats and one Beagle, I have responsibilities like feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, walking my dog, and making sure they're healthy and happy. Being a college student has taught me how to balance these responsibilities with classes, studying, and other commitments. I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, get exercise and attention, and have a clean-living space. Since I care for five cats and one Beagle at home, I'm comfortable managing multiple pets and following a daily routine. In a client's home, I would carefully follow their care instructions, keep the pets comfortable, and treat both their pets and home with respect.
About: New to Rover but not new to caring for animals. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. I’m a dependable, structured sitter who understands that pets do best when they feel safe, calm, and cared for—just like at home. As a busy mom managing a full household, I naturally bring consistency, patience, and attention to detail into everything I do—including pet care. I’m especially great with dogs who: • prefer routine • have a little anxiety • need calm, steady energy You can expect: ✔ timely communication ✔ daily photo + message updates ✔ a clean, safe, low-stress environment ✔ someone who treats your pet like family—but with structure I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, and I take that seriously. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of companionship for your pet. I walk often myself so I’d be happy to exercise with your pet as well. I have a large yard that is unfenced. I’m open to coming to your home as well. I also have two daughters that are dog lovers that can’t wait to play with and love on your pets!
About: My experience includes 5 years of professional experience working at a vet clinic and pet sitting for clients. I have cared for all ages and sizes of dogs and cats, from administering medications to ensuring your pets will be safe and happy when you are away. My schedule is flexible as I am retired so I am able to care for your pets when you need whether you need recurring visits or one time visit within 20 miles of Eaton Rapids. I am able to come to your home for drop in visits and walks. I have excellent references to ensure you can trust me in your home and care for your fur babies.
About: All my life I have been taking care of dogs, whether it’s puppies or senior dogs. I find dogs interesting and I love watching them in their natural setting. I can definitely tune into your dog’s body language and give them what they need. And my friends and family are always asking me for help with their pets! As of right now I’m available Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday all day! Then Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday I’m only available until two. This will soon change! I don’t offer pets in my home, but I will be glad to come to yours and take care of all your pets needs! If you have pets that require special care, even medication, I will be happy to accommodate that. Or if they just need playtime or to use the bathroom. I’m happy to do whatever you need!

“Christine was professional and kind. She not only took our 2 dogs overnight but also came to pick them up for us, at our parents house, while we visited from out of state. She kept us updated with pictures of the dogs playing and resting, etc.”
“Brooklyn was great. Sent plenty of pictures. Ammo was a little timid at first. Brooklyn sent me picture and kept me updated on his comfortability progression and it didn't take long. Work recommend her for sure!”
“Nicole and her family are great with my Bahzi and Harlem. I have used them twice now to watch my babies and will continue to use them if they are available. She is responsive and updates me daily plus the dogs enjoy their time with Nicole and her family. Thanks Nicole!!!”
“Amber took care of my senior cock-a-poo for the day. He is an old guy with issues (deaf, anxiety) and she seemed unfazed by his challenges. I found Amber to be very pleasant and kind, and she and her child are clearly animal lovers! I always worry about my dog staying with anyone, but I felt comfortable leaving him with her. Thank you, Amber!”
“Dublin stayed with Brooke & Buddy for 2weeks. He’s always excited when he realizes he’s staying with Brooke. He’s usually tired after picking him up. And I think he may lose some weight which is a good thing.”
“Rodney and his puppy crew were amazing! He sent pictures and gave updates to let me know that Marshmallow was comfortable and well cared for. Our little girl is looking forward to visiting again!”
“Fantastic experience from quick contact, to ease of dropping off and picking up our dog. Pictures with daily updates were really appreciated. Happy and healthy dog at pick-up said it all. Thank you Sarah!”
“Charlie is usually very shy and low energy but with Sabrina and Stella, he had way too much fun! We could tell clearly because it rarely happens that he has been sleeping hard for hours. Attesting to the fact of non-stop very energetic hours spent at Sabrina’s place. 1000% happy and we will be back again. Thanks to Sabrina and family”
About: Dogs have always been a part of our family, and caring for them is something we genuinely love. Over the past 15 years, we’ve shared our home with four dogs, including caring for three into their senior years through age-related and chronic health conditions. We’ve also raised a litter of puppies, giving us experience with young dogs and the extra patience, attention, and consistency they require. Because I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. We have a fully private fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our three dog-loving children have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals. While we’re not looking to add another dog to our family permanently, we’d love to open our home to yours. Our goal is to provide a safe, loving, family environment where every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, allowing me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. Potty breaks, outdoor play, walks (if requested), feeding, medication, and plenty of affection are all easily incorporated into my schedule. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, so they won’t just be supervised—they’ll be part of our family’s day. Whether your pup loves to play, relax, or simply be near people, they’ll receive plenty of attention, companionship, and love while they’re with us. I also make it a priority to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for during their stay. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Because I work from home, your pet will have supervision and companionship throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I take the time to learn each dog’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions, so they can maintain the routine they’re used to at home. Our home has a fully private fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and all dogs are monitored while outside. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of affection, and I treat each guest as if they were one of my own. I also understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take introductions slowly and always prioritize a calm, low-stress environment. Throughout your dog’s stay, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and having a great time.
