“Andrew, Venessa and kids did a fabulous job looking after Lyla. We are extremely pleased with the care that Lyla received. Lyla had lots of fun and she was extremely comfortable. The communication was great with updates and pictures. We will definitely be reaching out to them for future needs.”

“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”

“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”

“We were really happy we went with Andrew for Teddys stay. He was great when we dropped Teddy off, let us come in and see the place and got to see how Teddy did with their dog. While we were gone, we received daily updates and could tell Teddy looked happy which makes leaving easier! We would use Andrew again”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. With many years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. In 2019, I completed pet training courses to better understand animal behavior and puppy training. I'm experienced with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. Whether your pet loves long walks, exploring local dog parks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your furry family member is receiving dependable, loving care in an environment where every pet feels like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home three days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday), which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and walks throughout the day. On the two days I work in the office (Monday and Thursday), my fiancé and son are home by midday to check on our furry friends, give them attention, let them outside, and make sure they're comfortable. This means pets are never left alone for more than a few hours at a time. Our weekends are typically spent at home, giving us even more time for walks, playtime, trips to the dog park (if your pup enjoys them), and lots of love and affection. I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. My home features a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore. Inside, I have plenty of toys, cozy spaces to relax, and a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can feel right at home. I also live in a friendly, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for daily walks and outdoor enrichment. If your dog enjoys socializing and you're comfortable with it, I'm happy to take them to local dog parks for extra exercise and fun. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow their regular routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I understand that every pet is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and care I'd give my own.
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”


“Our dogs always come back so calm and relaxed after being at Bethany's. This rovers communication, care taking, availability are superb! We vacation with no worries about our dogs when they are with Bethany.”

“I have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Ana and her family! She was great at giving me updates and photos of how things were going for my baby Arlo! I definitely recommend them and I will be using Ana and her family whenever I need someone to take care of Arlo again!”

“Kelly did a great job watching my two toy Aussie’s! The dogs immediately got comfortable with Kelly and her two beautiful greyhounds. They loved the large fenced in grass yard— they were in dog heaven! Kelly sent photos and kept me posted on how my pups were doing. I so appreciated the updates since Kelly graciously took them at the last minute (due to a funeral in the family). I will definitely contact Kelly again— thank you!”

“My energetic 16 month old English Springer Spaniel loves being with Kristen & her family where he gets to play and go for regular walks. I appreciate the ease of working with her and highly recommended her for short or long stays.”

“Brenna welcomed our beagle on his first stay away from us. Her chill manner and gentle encouragement made me feel very comfortable. Would highly recommend to others and rebook again myself.”


“We have an elderly dog who is on multiple medications, and Katie did a wonderful job taking care of her! She was responsive and provided us with pictures and updates through our dog’s stay. I would not hesitate rebooking with her in the future.”

“Stacey did an amazing job taking care of our beloved dog, Lady. We were initially nervous about leaving Lady with someone new, but Stacey quickly put our minds at ease with her professionalism and genuine love for animals. Throughout our time away, Stacey provided regular updates and even sent us adorable pictures of Lady, which made us feel connected and reassured that she was in good hands. It was evident that Stacey went above and beyond to ensure Lady's comfort and happiness while we were away. Stacey followed our instructions diligently, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and administering any necessary medications. Lady seemed incredibly content and well-cared for when we returned home, and we could tell she had formed a bond with Stacey. Not only did Stacey take care of Lady's basic needs, but she also provided her with extra attention and affection. She took the time to play with Lady and give her the exercise she needed, which was fantastic. We highly recommend Stacey as a pet sitter. Her dedication, reliability, and love for animals truly set her apart. It's such a relief to know we have someone like Stacey to trust with our furry family member when we're away. Thank you, Stacey, for taking such great care of Lady!”

“Jen arranged a meet and greet time before we agreed to go forward. She arrived on time and was friendly. She asked good questions. She watched my two cats for 2 days. When I got home the cats were their usual selves and not stressed so that was a good sign that all went well. Jen also texted me while I was gone to let me know that I had left my door unlocked and that she locked it for me . I felt very comfortable with Jen and would recommend her.”


“Olivia did a wonderful job with our 2 cats while we were gone for a week. She was on time and always spent time with the cats as well as sending a quick note and pics of them. We will use her again if needed.”

“Adelaide was wonderful to work with! She cared so well for our cats and provided great feedback and pictures from her drop-in visits. She paid attention to detail, communicated well and was a top notch pet sitter! We’ll definitely book her pet sitting services again!”

“Ashly was great with my four boys and sought them out to give them some love while she was here. The photos were lovely and I could tell they felt comfort with her. I’ve already hired her for my next work trip.”


“Lindsey and her girls were great with our middle aged cat, Lambeau! They gave him lots of love and were a great help while we were out of town, checking on him everyday, being very responsive to messages, and picked up after some messes he made! If you have a chance to book Lindsey, your pet is in great hands!”

“Carine was wonderful and my kitties warmed right up to her. She brought her daughter when she was available so the kitties got extra attention twice a day for the long weekend. My kitties still sit by the front door wondering when their new friends will be back💕”

“Alyssa was so great with our kitty Marceline! She responded very quickly when I first reached out, and our kitty was comfortable with her right away. She had great attention to detail and was very pleasant to work with. I could tell from the pictures each day that our kitty was very happy with her! We would definitely use her as a sitter again in the future!”


About: I’ve taken care of cats ever since I could remember. I have always owned cats with my family. I currently own two cats that I take very care of. I have also helped take care of friends cats when they are away. I like to follow the rules, so if there are certain things you would like me to do, I will follow through with that.
“Desiree completed multiple drop-in visits (2x daily) during a week-long vacation for my two senior cats. Mr. Twix is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. Desiree was happy to stop over ahead of the trip to go over insulin and daily routines. I asked for photo updates and Desiree was happy to share! She graciously cleaned one poo mess and even helped reset the fuse box when the cat fountain stopped working. Twix and Butters were calm and happy when I arrived home. I felt comfortable on my trip knowing the kids were getting love in my absence!”
“I had a lot of anxiety leaving my older cat home after recently being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Vanessa went about and beyond at each visit. She sent pictures and loved one our cats. When we arrived home I could tell the cats were calm and well taken care of. 100% will be re booking with Vanessa. Thank you!! 🙌”

About: Pets make life better! They are family. If they behave well, they should be spoiled! I have always had dogs. I grew with up with dogs and now I have my own. I have never owned a cat because my mom is allergic, but I really enjoy them! I care for my friends two cats frequently. I love caring for, playing, and walking animals! I love getting outside to walk. I also love playing fetch and tug of war. I also enjoy playing with feather or ribbon cat toys! I am good with any age animal. They all need love and attention! My dog is 2, so I have been through the puppy stage recently. He has a lot of energy so I know how much exercise dogs need.

“Bagel loved her time at Carine’s home. She had so much fun with the kids and other pups staying with them and slept good at home afterward. We got lots of pics which is so fun! Thanks for taking such great care of bagel!!!”

“Kristen and her family welcomed Oreo as if he was their own dog. I felt confident that he was getting all the attention he needed. He got some love and exercise and a much welcomed break from his new little fur brother for the day. He is a fast eater, so still eats a lunch and that wasn't an issue at all for them. I know he would be happy to go back for a visit and some playtime with the kids anytime. Thanks for taking such great care of our big boy!”

“Liz is AMAZING! She watches my puppy 3 days a week. My dog (who is my baby) is absolutely in love with her. He can’t wait to go there and I can tell by the way he runs to her, wags pretty much out of his skin and all the kisses she gets, that he is treated very well. He is played with so much he sleeps like a baby when we get home. Going to work with no worries (knowing that my baby is safe and taken care of) means the world. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“We just wrapped up our first day of doggy daycare with Jen, and we are so happy to have found such a wonderful family closeby with a fenced yard!!! Jen provided photos and updates throughout the day, which put me at ease. I love that her kids got to play with my dog as well. And I can tell my pup had a great time. We will be repeat customers for sure!!!”

“Kara is absolutely amazing! Not only is she top notch! Her family is out of this world as well! I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for Leo to spend his days while I am at work.”

“Joey is great! I never worry about my dog when he stays there. He was so excited to go when he did day care and would run to the door when we arrived. Definitely recommend.”

“We were up for a few days and our old boy, Bowie had recently had some medical issues that we needed him to have a little extra love while we were off doing things and we would bring him back daily when done running. We didn't expect this to be a relaxing spa vacation for him! He was showered with love and pampered more that he is at home! I think he thinks I'm a bad dog dad now! Tawny took him for multiple walks every day, brushed him, gave him treats, and just loved him. He even got in the puppy pool which he doesn't do at home! I absolutely could not have asked for a better person to care for our baby. I highly recommend Tawny and next time we're up here if we need someone to watch one of our animals, we know EXACTLY who we're calling! Thank you Tawny for being such a loving person for our Bow-Bear! You're the BEST!!!”

About: I have a dog of my own, MinnieBean. She is a Portuguese Water Dog and is a bundle of joy. She’s quite shy around hoomans but loves other dogs :). I have had 8 great years looking after 2 dogs from a family I work for, and other dogs in between. I will make sure to feed, play and take out your fur baby when needed and make their comfort and happiness my priority. I have also administered medication too if needed. I do require a meet and greet first to make sure my service will be a good fit for both of us. I also have a toddler, so if the service will be in my home, they need to be great around kids :). I have confidence that you will feel comfortable and happy in leaving your pet in my hands. I will always care for and be responsible for any pet, in or out of my home. Oh, and I always love some cuddles too :) I am a stay at home mum, so I will be available pretty much most of the time, however, I do require your dog is kid friendly. I can easily crate your dog if needed or leave them where you tell me to when finishing the service. I will make sure water is available also if needed.
“Sonja and Adam were both very nice and their dogs too. I received a cute video of my dog playing with one of their dog during the day. They always answered my message quickly. They took care of Lola very well.”

“Our dog always leaves happy from her stays with Jeremiah and his family which gives us great peace of mind. He has been so flexible and has had great communication with us on the many days we’ve had our Husky stay for doggy day-care. I highly recommend Jeremiah!”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own over the years and have raised them from puppies, so I’m very familiar with all stages of a dog’s life from training and high-energy puppy behavior to the needs of adult and senior dogs. I’ve also personally fostered two daschund dogs for several years while a friend went through a difficult transition, caring for them full-time until she was able to find pet-friendly housing. That experience really deepened my understanding of long-term, committed pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds from larger dogs like Boxers to small breeds like Boston Terriers, Dachshunds, and Yorkies. I truly love them all and adjust my care based on each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I focus on making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday, which gives me flexibility for walks, feedings, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. My availability is open, and I’m also available most weekends. At my home, I provide a safe, family-friendly environment where pets are cared for like part of the family. I have a 10-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, so I always ensure interactions are supervised and safe for both the pets and children. I follow each pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while staying in my home.
“Perfect sitter who truly understands and follows specific care instructions. Rachel did exactly what we asked, and as a result, everyone—the dog, the sitter, and us as owners—was happy. I highly recommend her to anyone who may be unsure whether their dog can be properly cared for.”

About: With 30 years of dog‑care experience, I’ve done it all—groomer’s apprentice, breeder house‑sitter, and professional treat‑dispenser. Your pup gets a work‑from‑home buddy, a fenced yard for maximum zoomies, and all the cuddles they can handle. Special needs? Meds? Extra attention? I’ve got it covered. Basically, your dog’s about to live their best life. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I work from home, so I’m able to give dogs consistent attention from morning to night. With 30 years of experience—including working as a groomer’s apprentice and house‑sitting for dog breeders—caring for pups is part of my everyday rhythm. I take regular breaks for potty trips, playtime, and zoomies in the fenced yard, and I offer both daycare and boarding, depending on what your pup needs. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a secure home environment, a safely enclosed yard for outdoor fun, and plenty of cozy indoor spaces for rest and snuggles. I’m experienced with medications, special‑needs care, and senior pups, and I treat every dog like my own—patient, calm, and attentive. You can trust that your pup will receive reliable, loving care and a true home‑away‑from‑home experience.
About: What sets me apart is my professional background as a Medical Assistant combined with my lifelong love for animals. Growing up alongside our family dog, Topacio, who has been with us for over 10 years, I have developed a deep understanding and gentle touch for senior dog care—knowing exactly how to keep older pets comfortable, safe, and happy. My medical training gives me an extra layer of responsibility, attention to detail, and a calm demeanor when looking after pets. I am well-versed in caring for dogs of all sizes and ages from friends and family, and I focus on providing a structured, loving home environment. I treat every furry guest with the same dedication and affection as if they were my own! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I have a flexible hybrid schedule, working some days from home doing patient video consultations and other days from the office. On my work-from-home days, I am there to provide constant companionship and potty breaks throughout the day. For the days I am at the office, my schedule is highly predictable and structured, making it ideal for pets that are comfortable with a standard workday routine. No matter my schedule for the day, my evenings and weekends are completely free and dedicated 100% to long walks, fun playtime, and plenty of love! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I host pets in my home, I ensure a secure, escape-proof, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member can feel completely relaxed. Here is how I guarantee a safe stay: Structured Supervision: Thanks to my flexible hybrid schedule, I am home several days a week, and even on my office days, my routine is highly predictable. I closely monitor all interactions, ensuring feeding and playtimes are always safe and managed. Introduction & Meet-and-Greets: I always schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand. This ensures your pet feels comfortable in my home and is a great match for our sweet senior dog, Topacio. Tailored Routines & Care: With my background as a Medical Assistant, I am extremely detail-oriented. I strictly follow your specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, and any special medication requirements to keep their days consistent. Daily Updates: I love sending frequent photos and updates so you can have total peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving lots of love.
About: I’ve been my neighborhoods designated dog sitter since I was 12 years old! I’m a lifelong dog lover and currently have two large, energetic rescue dogs of my own. I have hands-on experience with bully breeds, large and strong dogs, puppies, multi-dog households, crate training, leash manners, enrichment, basic grooming, and administering routine medications and supplements. I’m especially comfortable with active dogs and dogs with big personalities! I understand that every dog has different needs, boundaries, routines, and ways of communicating, and I’m happy to follow the training and structure you already use at home. I love walks, hiking, enrichment activities, playtime, and plenty of couch cuddles. I’m also comfortable with basic bathing and grooming, including dogs who need a little extra patience with baths. Safety is extremely important to me. I pay close attention to dog body language, introduce dogs carefully, separate dogs for meals and high-value treats when appropriate, and never assume that what works for one dog will work for another. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re with me. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs in my care. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, as well as daycare and boarding for dog-friendly dogs in my home. I have two dogs of my own, so caring for dogs, getting outside, and fitting plenty of play and enrichment into my day is already part of my normal routine! Safety and comfort are always my priority. I have two friendly, social dogs of my own, and I require a meet-and-greet before boarding or daycare to make sure everyone is comfortable together. I carefully supervise introductions and play, and I separate dogs for meals, chews, and other high-value items when needed. I have a large yard with an invisible fence that my own dogs use, but visiting dogs will always be physically secured outside with a leash or long line. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, crate schedule, feeding instructions, medications, and house rules. Dogs are always welcome on my furniture and beds unless you prefer otherwise!
“Ana and her family were absolutely amazing! It’s clear that they truly understand how important our dogs are to us. Ana’s communication was unparalleled. She sent frequent updates with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while Oreo was with them. Oreo loved playing with their sweet pup Bailey in their securely fenced yard and soaking up all the loving pets from the whole family. It was obvious that they genuinely love dogs and treat their visitors like part of the family. I also really appreciated the chance to do a meet and greet ahead of time so Oreo and Bailey could meet and make sure they were a good play match. I would feel completely comfortable having Oreo stay with them again anytime, and I know he would be thrilled to go back. I won’t hesitate to reach out next time he needs some playtime and extra snuggles!”

“Jordana was ✨Amazing✨ the first day Odin was a little nervous but he quickly warmed up to her and enjoyed every walk and play time with her after that! Wonderful communication and always provided us with great pictures after every session!”

About: I’ve had and helped care for pets my entire life! From dogs and cats to guinea pigs and horses, I’ve always loved being around and caring for animals of all kinds. I’m familiar with the needs of cats and dogs of all ages and am dedicated to providing reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I just graduated from high school this past school year and will be commuting to school starting in September. I only have a few classes each weekday, so I should still be available to care for your pets around my schedule! I am also very flexible and should be able to meet the needs of almost any pet parent! In my experience, every home is run differently, and every pet sitting job is unique, so I always follow the pet parent’s schedule and instructions. I pay great attention to detail and am responsible with timelines for tasks.
About: I have had dogs since I was 2 years old small, medium, and large. I have also helped my neighbors when they were out of town to care for their dogs. When looking after any animal I pay very close attention to the animals needs because every dog is different and I work to make sure they are comfortable and happy while in my care. It is important to me that the animals needs are met and expectations from their owners are met.
About: Family of 4 animal lovers! We’ve had pets our entire lives and for the past year have been helping with dog fostering. Our two daughters love to help so your pet will receive plenty of attention, love, and playtime in our fully fenced backyard! I work from home so your pet will rarely be alone and will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pets are family here and are welcome to any furniture during their stay. We’d love to care for yours like one of our own! Our backyard is quite spacious and fully fenced in. If you’d like, we can definitely take your dog for a walk as our neighborhood is in a quiet suburb of Prior Lake without through traffic (our kids bike around with no fear). We also have two friendly cats who mostly keep to themselves (or cuddle with each other!) and will happily give your dog space.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other animals for about five years! I started out by dog- and house-sitting for families in my neighborhood, and eventually, word started to spread. Before long, I was being reached out to more and more often to care for dogs, bunnies, hamsters, cats, and guinea pigs! In May 2025, I got a puppy of my own named Goose. Once Goose turned one, I decided to join Rover so I could expand my experience and have the opportunity to help even more pet parents with their animals’ care. I understand how hard it can be to find a family friend—or simply someone you know and trust—to watch your pet. Sometimes, when that option isn’t available, people have no choice but to turn to an app like Rover and trust someone they may have never met before. Because of that, one of the things I pride myself on most is providing a detailed description of EVERY pet visit, along with a possibly excessive amount of pictures! I know the anxiety that can come with leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I do my best to be reliable, trustworthy, and communicative. I want every update I give you to make you feel like you were there in person, while making sure you’re always kept in the loop about how your pet is doing. At the end of the day, I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands, getting plenty of love and attention while you’re away! Pet care fits in perfectly with my routine. I am very responsible when it comes to other people’s pets and am very flexible and available. In my home, someone is almost always around. My dad works from home and I have school for a minimum of 2 hours in the morning. In my clients homes, I take time out of my day to spend time with their animals, and work according to the animals schedule, not mine.
About: I have over two years of hands-on experience providing loving, dependable pet care, including drop-in visits, in-home dog sitting, and dog walking. I’m lucky to have several amazing regular clients and truly enjoy building strong bonds with the pets I care for. One of my absolute favorites is Remy, a playful white Labrador I’ve been trusted to watch for over a year, he always keeps me smiling! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have four of my own, so caring for pups is second nature to me. I’m passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I am currently in school in the mornings and work in the afternoons however I am usually done by 6 giving me the whole night to hang out with your pup! I love being able to give dogs my full attention, whether that means extra playtime, long walks, or just keeping them company and making them feel comfortable and loved. Because I have four pups of my own at home, I do not offer pet sitting in my home. However, I am very comfortable caring for pets in your home, where they can stay in their familiar environment. I’m happy to keep your home tidy, follow your routines, and provide your pups with plenty of companionship, attention, and love while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old and I love all animals! I have trained all of our dogs and they have had long, happy lives. I am a stay-at-home mom and my kids are all grown now. I have plenty of time to cater to your pets needs! I can come to your house anytime or have your pets here. I am very responsible and will always be there for your pets day and night. Staying in touch with you, sending pictures of your pets and following your instructions is a must!
About: I have help take care of friends and neighbors pets for at least 7 years. I am looking to help more around my neighborhood with Rover app. Am looking to help in walking or just dropping by to help your fur baby to get out and go potty. I looking for part time. If you are ever in need of a place to keep your pet over while you go out of town. I am willing to help out with that and would like to just keep in mind I have kids that are kind to animals.
About: I have a love for dogs and have had my own dog, Rosie, a Pomeranian, for twelve years now. I love being around dogs and grew up with Australian cattle dogs, as well as farm cats. I will play and care with your dog as if it was my own. I will take your dog on walks and make sure they get enough time outside to play and go potty. I am most comfortable with small, medium and large sized dogs. Please contact me with any questions! I would love to care for your dog! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I can do drop-ins or walks around my work schedule and can accommodate what you and your pet need. I will take care of your dog like my own and give them the love and attention they need. That may mean a longer or shorter walk, depending on your dogs exercise level. I can also play fetch if that is preferred over a walk.
About: I have a special love for animals and have been relied on by friends and family for many years to help out with their pets when needed. I am able to take care of pets of any age or breed, but am especially good with senior care. I am available to come help out after 5pm during the week, outside of my other job hours, and am available all day on the weekends. We have a fenced in backyard at home for when we had dogs to let outside. We now just have cats, and spend time playing with them, cleaning litter boxes, and loving them.

About: Pets make life better! They are family. If they behave well, they should be spoiled! I have always had dogs. I grew with up with dogs and now I have my own. I have never owned a cat because my mom is allergic, but I really enjoy them! I care for my friends two cats frequently. I love caring for, playing, and walking animals! I love getting outside to walk. I also love playing fetch and tug of war. I also enjoy playing with feather or ribbon cat toys! I am good with any age animal. They all need love and attention! My dog is 2, so I have been through the puppy stage recently. He has a lot of energy so I know how much exercise dogs need.

I have kids who will give them a lot of attention and love. We are very loving, patient and responsible when it comes to caring for our and other fur babies. Pets are apart of the family and we have always treated ours like a family member.

“Andrew, Venessa and kids did a fabulous job looking after Lyla. We are extremely pleased with the care that Lyla received. Lyla had lots of fun and she was extremely comfortable. The communication was great with updates and pictures. We will definitely be reaching out to them for future needs.”

“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”

“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”

“We were really happy we went with Andrew for Teddys stay. He was great when we dropped Teddy off, let us come in and see the place and got to see how Teddy did with their dog. While we were gone, we received daily updates and could tell Teddy looked happy which makes leaving easier! We would use Andrew again”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. With many years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. In 2019, I completed pet training courses to better understand animal behavior and puppy training. I'm experienced with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. Whether your pet loves long walks, exploring local dog parks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your furry family member is receiving dependable, loving care in an environment where every pet feels like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home three days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday), which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and walks throughout the day. On the two days I work in the office (Monday and Thursday), my fiancé and son are home by midday to check on our furry friends, give them attention, let them outside, and make sure they're comfortable. This means pets are never left alone for more than a few hours at a time. Our weekends are typically spent at home, giving us even more time for walks, playtime, trips to the dog park (if your pup enjoys them), and lots of love and affection. I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. My home features a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore. Inside, I have plenty of toys, cozy spaces to relax, and a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can feel right at home. I also live in a friendly, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for daily walks and outdoor enrichment. If your dog enjoys socializing and you're comfortable with it, I'm happy to take them to local dog parks for extra exercise and fun. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow their regular routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I understand that every pet is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and care I'd give my own.

“Kelly did a great job watching my two toy Aussie’s! The dogs immediately got comfortable with Kelly and her two beautiful greyhounds. They loved the large fenced in grass yard— they were in dog heaven! Kelly sent photos and kept me posted on how my pups were doing. I so appreciated the updates since Kelly graciously took them at the last minute (due to a funeral in the family). I will definitely contact Kelly again— thank you!”

“Miranda cares for the dogs that she watches like they are her own and sent updates and check ins. Would absolutely recommend to those looking for a place for their pup where someone works from home so is able to provide care and attention throughout the day.”
