“I was nervous to leave Jane as this was the first time she’s stayed with anyone other than my parents, but Sue and Craig were absolutely amazing! They made sure to understand all of my preferences and Jane’s schedule and demeanor. They checked in with me consistently with updates and pictures, which i was grateful for. They cared for Jane as if she was their own and I will definitely reach out to them again for care. Highly recommend, in every way!”
“Our dog loved staying with Judy and we felt at ease during our 9 day vacation knowing Swish was getting the love and attention he does from us-if not more. We will definitely book with Judy again in the future, but probably never stay away from Swish that long again! We missed him.”
“Wesley was fantastic with our dog while for four nights of boarding. He was exceptionally good at communicating, sending updaters with photos, and making us feel at ease even though we hadn’t worked with Wesley before. It was so lovely to pick our pup up from Wesley where he was smiling and clearly well cared for! We will definitely ask Wesley to help again in the future.”
“Nickolai was very communicative and responsive. We received pictures of our girl and updates throughout her stay with Nickolai. The home has a very large fenced-in backyard which our dog enjoyed immensely. We mentioned that our dog is accustomed to going on walks and Nickolai was kind enough to take her out for walks around the neighborhood.”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Promise and her dogs! She provided frequent updates, was very communicative, and I know she took the best care of Bo! He got lots of playtime and love, and I had complete peace of mind while I was away. I cannot recommend Promise enough and already have my dog’s next stay booked with her. Thank you, Promise!!”
“Jordan did a great job of caring for our senior dog for 3 nights at his home. His communication was prompt and he provided daily photos and updates. Jordan also has a very lovely fenced in back yard with tennis balls ready to toss. Also, he had water already set up for our dog before we even arrived. We will book with Jordan again.”
“Our dog goes from bashful to attention seeking very quickly. Dustin took great care of our pooch and sent us photos daily. Probably gave her nose butter better than we do. Washed her blanket too. Top notch sitter.”
“we have only worked with one other rover and typically have family watch our little guy. Due to this, we were nervous to branch out and find someone new when we relocated to MSP. We did a meet and greet with Colleen and Joe and they were wonderful. Dezi immediately took to their great yard and house and they were both so kind and willing to answer any questions and put us at ease. Dezi also loved Nico and it was clear they would be great friends. Dezi just had his first overnight with them and they were very communicative and sent pictures and updates. We are already booked for another visit and are so thankful to have found Colleen, Joe, and Nico!”
“This was my first time using this app and I was a little skeptical but Amy was absolutely amazing to deal with and treated my dog like her own I would recommend her to anyone and will continue to use her service in the future.”
“Terrie responded to my booking request right away and we met her the next day. I was impressed at how she let my pup explore and engaged with her on her own time. My pup had a blast and I knew Terrie was attentive and caring while she was with her. I would definitely use her again!”
“Trish & Robert were wonderful hosts for Ruby. She had a great time running around their backyard when we met and kept me in the loop with regular updates and photos. Would definitely be looking to see if they are available the next time I have to travel without Ruby.”
“Aastha and Dan were phenomenal. Our dog gets very anxious at drop-off, and they went above and beyond to ease his transition and make him feel at home. Aastha sent many pictures and messages throughout each day and they were incredibly considerate and attentive to our dog, especially over Fourth of July fireworks. We weren't sure if he would want to come home, he was having such fun with Aastha and Dan! Highly recommend -- they will be our first choice for boarding in the future.”
“We have used Eric and Martha 3 times in the last year and Ruby loves her stays with them. They are very flexible and easy to work with and they take such good care of our pup. I made a mistake in the last booking and they were very understanding and even went out of their way in making accommodations for us. They are both so sweet with Ruby and they care for her as if she was their own. They send alot of photos and videos, which we love. We will definitely use them again!”
“Bryan was great! They treated Cardi like she was their own and made me feel completely comfortable leaving her in their care. Communication was great throughout her stay. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Daniela watched my 4 month old puppy and I couldn’t be happier! She was extremely responsive when we reached out to her and continued communication with us the whole time! I got updates throughout everyday with pictures and messages on how my pup was doing! Even sent us home with some more treats and a bone! Will definitely be coming back to her!”
“Maria and her Family are the best. It was Leias first stay with Maria but definitely not the last. Maria kept us posted with daily pictures and updates, did care wonderfully for Leia who had some issues with itching when we dropped her off. Thanks to Maria’s great care, Leia was fine within a few days. Extremely responsive and just a joy to have found such a responsible sitter. Thank you, Maria!”

“Jordan provided drop in care for our two cats and did a great job! He was a great communicator and sent us fun pictures of the cats each day. He made sure to spend time with them and give them attention while we were gone. Very appreciative of his services!”
“Andy did an awesome job checking in our senior kitty. Instructions were followed, our home was left clean, and Andy took the time to get to know our cat, provide some additional treats, and get some play time in. We really appreciated the communication and the photos!”
About: Hi! I really love being around dogs as I have grown up with four dogs since I was a kid! They have been my best friends my entire life and I wouldn't have traded away a single moment with them. I am experienced in taking care of dogs and love to be around them and play! Not everyone understands how much effort goes into taking care of your best friend but I do! My family currently fosters and looks after dogs which encouraged me to do something similar. My family provided insight into rover and I thought it would be a great idea with my experience. Moreover, I currently live away from home due to school so I miss the companionship as well! Please let me know if you have any further questions I would love to answer them & talk more about my experience! I look forward to ensuring your pet(s) are well taken care of during your absence!
“Great service. My cat is scared of everyone, so it makes watching him hard. It seemed that he warmed up towards the end of the trip to Kaitlyn as he didn’t run away immediately. That tells me she was kind and caring while she was there. Will use again.”
“Emma responded so fast to our last minute request and was able to do a meet and greet that morning with all our animals. While we’re were gone and Emma was checking in they gave fantastic updates on how our cat was doing and sent lots of pictures. Emma even stayed much longer than the visit required. Giving lots of love to our old kitty. Best last minute decision ever to go with Emma. We would trust any of our pets with Emma again.”
“Ellen was very responsive, and agreed to check in on our kitties even without much advance knowledge for a holiday weekend. She made a separate trip to run through where the litter boxes and water bowls and treats were so that she was prepared when she was stopping by. We really appreciated her thoroughness!”
“Words cannot describe how thankful we are for Izzy. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing that Turkey was being so well cared for. We could fully relax knowing that Turkey was happy and enjoying herself while we were away. Izzy went far beyond any expectations we could have had. Since Turkey is a hairless cat, Izzy had to put on and take off her sweatshirts daily and carefully determine whether the weather was appropriate for walks and outdoor time — which can be tricky given Turkey’s lack of fur and grumpiness! Turkey’s ears also require regular cleaning because they collect wax easily, and Izzy helped us tremendously with that as well. Throughout our trip, we received photos and updates from Izzy, which gave us so much peace of mind. We would recommend Izzy to any family looking for someone who will give special attention, care, and love to their beloved family member. We were away for 9 days, which was the longest we have ever been apart from Turkey. When we returned home, we were amazed by how happy and comfortable Turkey was, and by how consistently Izzy maintained Turkey’s feeding schedule. Most importantly, Izzy is truly a gem of a person. Her calm, easygoing, yet detail-oriented character made our time away completely worthwhile. We will absolutely continue requesting Izzy’s care moving forward!”
About: I have always had animals in my life from the time I was a child until I got my very own to love and care for. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I also have extensive experience with cats, bunnies and hamsters too. I will love and care for any animal as if they were my own. I am currently between careers, so I will have plenty of time to care for your animals any day of the week! I also offer multi-day care for those times you may be out of town and need someone to care for your fur baby. I offer in-home care for your animals so they will feel safe in their natural environment. I can adapt to their comfort levels and ensure they have a clean, safe space in your home to reduce stress.
“Reagan is honestly the greatest. Prompt, a good communicator, extremely kind, and very accommodating are just some of the things I love about her. When she stayed overnight in my home she left it cleaner than I did! I have many pets and she followed all directions perfectly. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you for everything, Reagan ♥️ hope to see you soon!”
“Ashley took great care of our two cats! She was extremely communicative, dedicated time and attention to making sure they were active, and made sure they exhibited normal eating/drinking habits while we were traveling. Loved the pictures as well!”
“Absolutely loved having Jessica watch over my little puppy. She was communicative and made me feel at ease while I was away. The pictures and updates were great. I would highly recommend her!”
“Marla is the best!! 100% recommended. We feel so relaxed to leave the house, because we know our 2 cats are in great care with her, she is super resposible and really nice.”
“Maia took wonderful care of our cat, Princess Leia, while we were out of town for four days. She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind that everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, both our house and our cat were clearly well cared for. Princess Leia was happy to see us, but she also seemed calm, relaxed, and content, which is always the best sign that she's been in good hands. Maia's drop-in visits gave us confidence that our cat was getting the attention and care she needed while we were away. We would absolutely trust Maia with our home and pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter.”
About: When you have to be away, I want to provide a compassionate space for your four legged family member to be cared for. I understand how much dogs and cats add to our lives and how they deserve the best we can give them. And next to you, I am the best. I hold a work ethic that allows you to rely on me to provide for your pet and get their needs met. I can stay at your home, drop in, or open my home. Let's collaborate together and create the most stress free plan for your dog(s) or cat(s). Then relax while you confidently know that I will be tending to all the details we arrange for the health and happiness of your loved one. I work part time and share a lot of boarding care with my partner. Our schedules overlap so your pup will have very little time that they might have to be alone. When your pup stays with me in my home we try to make their stay as comfortable as possible. There are areas for both chill time and outside time; with dedicated space for rest and play as well as an easily accessible fenced yard.

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: As a current dog owner (Rosita, 30lbs), and having had dogs of my own in the past (Scooby & Walnut), I completely understand that special connection of owning a pet. They become more than just a pet, they're family. We only accept one client at a time to ensure 100% care to your pet’s needs. My husband (Andrew) and I both currently work remotely so your pet would have my full attention and the schedule flexibility. My husband Andrew & I are the only humans who live in this house (no children). As a current dog owner myself, I have experience with pet care. I also understand special needs to your furry friend. I can relate because my last doggo, Walnut had a chronic condition that required her to take medication daily, so I have experience with oral medical administration. Be assured that I will welcome your dog the same way I'd welcome anyone into my home. I'd cater to their needs and make sure the dog is enjoying their stay or visit with me! I am organized and responsible but caring at the same time. Thank you!
“Jordan was great and we hope to work with him again in the future answered all of our questions and the dogs were super happy to be with him and we are so happy to have met him”
“Nickolai was very responsive & communicative. I was able to book last minute with him -for the next day! My pup was greeted with a treat which was a great sign! I also received photos throughout his stay which certainly gave me peace of mind. Bruno came home tuckered out and ready to chill, which is great because mom is ready to chill too after a long day of work. He will certainly be back if I am working in the area again! 😊”
About: I love dogs but travel quite a lot and so foster when I can, but I'd love to do more and heard about Rover from a friend. I have experience fostering for short periods, and watching friends' dogs. I love to go on walks and work from home, so we will have a good time! I have experience fostering for short periods and watching friends' dogs. I love to go on walks and I work from home, so I have plenty of time to make sure your dog as a good time! My home's yard is not fenced, so we will be on a leash for safety. There is a park just one block from me, as well as a couple of lakes within half a mile for extra smells.
“Madilyn and Cameron are the best—Tilly always loves her visits here and on this particular occasion, when I arrived for pickup, she seemed pretty keen to stay. She loves having fun with Mowgli and getting all snuggled up with the whole crew. Always makes us happy to have her stay here!”
About: Ever since I was a kid, I begged my parents for a dog every day of my life. I never got one as a kid, but I have sure made up for it since! I got involved with Grey Face Rescue and have been fostering dogs for the last 5 years. I am very proud to have gotten seven foster dogs to their forever homes. If it was up to me, I would have many dogs of my own, but I have a crazy work schedule in the summer, which would not allow me to care for a dog. In the fall, winter, and spring I love to bring animals into my home. During these months, I work from home and I am able to give many walks and lots of attention! My fosters typically get two 30 minute walks a day, which is something I also really enjoy. If your dog comes to stay with me, they would get to meet my child who loves dogs just as much as I do, and my cat who pretty much stays clear of any dog that is brought into the home. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I work from home and have constant availability to meet any dog’s schedule. I love providing them with multiple daily walks and any sort of engagement they need. There are no off-limits areas for your dog in my home. All of our furniture is open to pets. We are very well-versed in keeping food off the counter and ensuring that is a safe environment for your dog. I even have multiple size dog beds from my years of fostering as well as toys, bowls and all the equipment so they can travel lightly!
“Nova had a great stay with Jessie and Harley! She loved getting her zoomies out in the backyard and enjoyed a nice walk, too. By the time we got home, she was ready for a good nap. Jessie was kind, communicative, and super easy to coordinate with.”
About: As a dog owner and foster/rescue volunteer, I've worked with all kinds of dogs, from playful puppies to dogs with special needs, including senior pups which have a soft spot in my heart. i work office ours during week days, after 4 pm i focus on giving my dogs the activity they need, and i dedicate the weekends fully to my furry friends. I have a fenced park in my building with games for dogs, I can crate your dog if wanted or needed, and I have plenty of toys and green areas close by to make sure the pups have fun! I have a pup myself very friendly that will be happy to be and have some company
“Evie at so much fun! Great that she could play in the backyard with the other dogs. Taylor provided a video and photos throughout the day. Would recommend Taylor!”
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born. I'm very comfortable and confident in giving them love and care! I've helped dog sit for my parents, friends & neighbors. I also had the amazing joy of raising a Boston Terrier to the blessed old age of 15. I helped train him as a puppy and in new ways once he lost his hearing and had memory loss in his senior years. I feel like it's a treat just having a fury presence in the house. My husband and I are both drawn to animals. I feel like they make the world a better place! They certainly add joy to mine! I work from home part-time, so that leaves me plenty of time to walk, play with and snuggle your pups! I'm available for boarding both weekdays and weekends. I have a nice size lot to get your dogs out whenever it is needed and also have many great parks & trails nearby for taking a nice long stroll. I am happy to have pets on furniture and sleep in a bed but also can give them the care they are used to (crate sleeping, dog bed, etc). Most important is that they feel comfortable!
“I feel so fortunate to have found Megan! Having my dog cared for in a home environment makes such a difference. She is incredibly flexible with scheduling, which has given my dog plenty of opportunities for activity, attention, and play throughout the day. Her kids are also such a wonderful asset—they add even more love, energy, and companionship to the experience. Communication is top tier plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day!”
“Maureen is a very animal loving person. She sent a picture and a video. By the info she provided about Studly I knew he really liked her!!! Even when we dropped him off he made himself at home instead of his usual separation anxiety issue. We highly recommend Maureen and will definitely use her again!!!”
“Lindsey was great with communication and sent photos. She was patient as Hogan was a bit nervous but super thankful she is comfortable with larger dogs. Would use her again for sure!”
About: Hi! I’m Elena. Whether your pet is an easygoing adult dog, a timid kitty, or a gentle senior who just wants a quiet place to nap, I provide calm, attentive, and high-trust care tailored to their normal routine. My animal care background runs deep: 8+ Years of Rescue Experience & Patient Care: I spent eight years volunteering with City Kitties Rescue in DC and The Cats at Longstreet. Through this work, I developed a strong understanding of animal body language, patience with shy pets, and a gentle touch for animals who need a peaceful environment to feel comfortable. Gentle Senior & Easygoing Routine Care: I love spending time with adult and senior pets who enjoy a relaxed pace, predictable routines, lots of affection, or simply lounging on the couch. I grew up with a Peekapoo and trained with the Animal Humane Society on gentle dog handling techniques. Pro Communication & Great Photos: You’ll receive clear, real-time updates and high-quality progress photos during every stay so you always have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and relaxed. Broad Animal Experience: While I focus on adult cats and dogs on Rover, I’ve personally cared for a wide variety of animals throughout my life—from hedgehogs, rabbits, and pocket pets to reptiles (including live feeding). I maintain a peaceful, welcoming environment and treat every pet like family. I’d love to meet you and your companion! My schedule is very flexible. I work part-time and remotely, which means I am home for the majority of the day and can give your pet plenty of individual attention, frequent potty breaks, and low-stress companionship. Because I work from my peaceful home environment, I can easily stick to your pet’s normal daily rhythm—whether that’s a midday backyard break, regular feeding times, or just having a cozy lap available while I work. Whether caring for pets in my own home or visiting yours, safety, comfort, and respect for routine are my top priorities. In My Home (Boarding): I use a low-stress, step-by-step transition process for feline guests. Just like my rescue fosters, visiting cats start out in a cozy, dedicated space (like a private room) with all their essentials until they feel confident enough to explore the rest of the house at their own pace. For dogs, I maintain a secure, calm environment and ensure my backyard is fully supervised during outdoor breaks. In Your Home (Drop-Ins): I follow your exact instructions to keep your pet’s routine seamless. My visits typically begin with fresh food, water, and litter/potty care. Once their primary needs are met, I spend the remaining time providing gentle affection, low-key play, or simply quiet companionship—always ensuring your home is kept secure and key logistics are handled with complete accountability.
“Lizzy & her husband took GiGi for a fun hour long walk in the snow. They gave her a lot of attention and cuddles. They will be great caregivers for your pet.”
About: Hello! I am an animal lover at heart and have an extra special place in my heart for dogs! I have experience caring for dogs since I was little girl. I know how nerve wrecking it can be to leave your pet while you're away and I will strive to provide great care for your dog in order to make sure all their needs are met and beyond. I have a dog and I will promise to treat your dog as my own! I work M-F from home which leaves me with more flexibility for potty breaks and walks as needed for your dog. I can provide pupdates and pictures as often as you'd like to reassure your dog is in good hands! I have a fenced in yard to allow your dog exercise. I am dedicated to providing a fun and safe environment during their stay! I work from home during the day which allows me the flexibility to provide more frequent potty and play breaks for you pup! I can ensure your pup has more attention when needed. There are several walking paths near me to take dogs for walks/potty breaks. I have a fully fenced backyard for play time and exercise. I treat dogs I am caring for as my own.

“Andy takes great care of my baby's! Andy is easy to communicate with, and takes great pictures. When I come home the dogs are always excited in a way I know they had a nice time with a new friend.”
About: I love pets so much! I have two cats, Tommy and Rosie, and they’re the sweetest. I have been a preschool teacher and a house cleaner, so I’m not afraid of cleaning up any messes or accidents that may happen. I’m trustworthy and reliable because of those job experiences; my favorite part of cleaning houses was getting to know people’s pets! I also love creating a connection with pet parents. If I’m coming into your home, you and your pets become a part of my family. I’m also an actor, so if you ever want to know about shows that are happening, I’m a very good resource! It’s my goal to make sure your pets feel loved and nurtured even when you’re not at home. I create my own schedule, so I can be pretty flexible when I need to be. Mornings are my most available time, so let’s talk! I’ll follow any notes and instructions you give me, and if there’s anything I cannot do, I’ll let you know so we can work on a solution together. There may be some things I’m inexperienced in when looking after dogs(giving medication, etc) but if you show me what to do, I’m a fast learner!
About: I've had dogs almost my entire life and have been taking care of the dogs of friends and family for the past 11 years. This ranges from absolute cuddle bug Yorkies to energetic labs. I work from 6-3:30 Sunday through Thursday, but making sure that the animals in my care have a regular schedule as best fits around that is key. First thing in the morning I'd be making sure the animals in my care have access to food and water and taken outside to do their business as applicable. Once I get home I recheck food and water needs and take care of their play and exercise needs. I have a fenced in yard and depending on the animal's needs, they can be crated or allowed to roam around the house. The specifics may vary depending on the type of pet and the owner's preferences or special instructions.
“i’ve been using emerson consistently multiple times a week for almost a year now- he is flexible, communicative and extremely reliable. he does a great job with my large doodle and even was able to manage my two large dogs when i had them both. will continue using emerson and highly recommend!”
About: Hello! I am so excited to meet you. Thank you for taking interest in my page! I am a recent homeowner and would love to be able to share this space with your furry friends. I have extensive experience with kitties, and have owned my 2 pups for just about 2 years now! I also have 2 kitties who we have had since kittens, who are 9 and 6 years old. Our pets are regarded as part of our family, and I am excited to make yours feel at home as well! I gladly offer potty and play breaks in our large fenced in back yard and lots of enrichment activities, from lick pads to puzzle toys. Please reach out if you have any questions! I work from home on Fridays, but otherwise that means that I am out of the house from 8 am to 4:30 pm. I do require a supervised overnight visit before I can allow pets to stay over while I am at work, but are happy to host your pets while I am away for the day, and can work with you to figure out a plan that works with my WFH schedule if you'd like as well! I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly, active pups. My kitties are also super friendly and welcoming, though less interested in playing than the dogs. I have the ability to set up separate areas of our home as well, and regularly allow the dogs outside to play. They have 24/7 access to water and I am able to adjust to any feeding schedule or medication needs!
About: Dogs have always been apart of my life, as I always had a dog growing up and at one point owned 5 dogs. To me having 5 dogs is no different than having 1, as long as you have enough love to go around. All they want to do is love you and make you happy, so how can you not love them in return. I have 3 dogs of my own right now and enjoy spending time with them. I probably spoil them as they know when I come home with bags that there is more than likely a treat or toy for them. I am available any day and time and have a fenced yard. I am reliable and trustworthy and would treat your dog with care, respect and love.
About: I love dogs, and would very much enjoy your dog’s companionship in my home, to join me on my daily walks in the neighborhood, an afternoon snooze, treats as allowed by you, and a lot of attention and pets. I am a laid-back person, easy going, relaxed, friendly and would enjoy spending time with your beloved pet. Life is wonderful when shared with a companion! Also, I especially enjoy senior dogs and only take one dog at a time, unless it’s two dogs from the same family. I am retired and home most of the time. My schedule is relaxed, and my attitude is to go-with-the-flow and enjoy the gifts each day brings. On occasion, I go to the grocery store or meet a friend for lunch, but most of the time I am home. My goal would be to do my best to help your dog feel comfortable in my home, and attend to your dog's needs and desires. I will keep your dog safe by making sure they don’t accidentally slip out the door, and I avoid other dogs on our walks. I will send you daily photo updates and a recap of the day's activities. Above all, your pet will be loved, well cared for, and safe.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I was lucky enough to care for my own senior dog, Rocky, who lived to 16 and was truly my best friend. That experience taught me how important patience, consistency, and paying attention to a dog’s individual needs are, especially as they get older. I also currently have a puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, potty breaks, crate routines, playtime, and keeping a consistent schedule. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from Bernese Mountain Dogs to Chihuahua mixes, so I’m comfortable with everything from big, energetic dogs to smaller puppies. I genuinely care about getting to know each dog and making them feel comfortable and loved. I’m attentive to their behavior, routines, eating and bathroom habits, and energy levels, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. Whether your pup needs exercise, enrichment, companionship, or just some extra love, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I work full-time during the day, but I’ve intentionally built my schedule so I have plenty of availability for pet care before and after work, as well as on weekends. I’m available for morning and evening visits, walks, and drop-ins, and I’m happy to work with your dog’s regular routine. Having a puppy of my own has also made me very comfortable building pet care into my daily routine. I understand how important consistency is for dogs, so I’ll do my best to keep their normal feeding, potty, exercise, and play schedules while you’re away. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly and make sure I can give your pup the time and attention they deserve before accepting a booking. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for someone’s pet. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, medications if needed, and any specific behaviors or precautions you want me to know about. During walks and drop-ins, I keep a close eye on your pup and make sure they are secure before opening doors, gates, or leaving the home. I’m also mindful of things that could be unsafe for dogs, such as food, household items, or anything they might try to get into. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll make sure doors are locked, your pet is comfortable and secure when I leave, and I’ll keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pup is in good hands.

“Heather was great! She was prompt in all her appointments. Our puppy just loved her and everything went smoothly. She was very communicative and she sent pictures of their walk. I highly recommend Heather. We will certainly be working with her again!”
“AJ was wonderful with Leia! She was so kind and caring, and when Leia got tired during their walk, AJ went above and beyond by carrying her part of the way home. We really appreciate her taking the extra time and effort to make sure Leia was comfortable and got home safely. It’s clear that AJ genuinely cares about the dogs she’s walking. We would absolutely recommend her and would happily have her walk Leia again!”
“We needed a dog walker with a few days notice and Anja quickly replied. We really appreciated her thorough summary of how our puppy did! We’ll definitely have her walk Maverick again!!”
About: There’s something about a dog’s loyalty, personality, and the way they become such an important part of our lives that I’ve always cherished. My love for dogs began at a very young age; at just six years old, I had a Poodle of my own and was already learning the responsibility and joy of caring for a dog. Throughout my life, I’ve proudly had dogs of my own and cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs while they were away. We recently lost our beloved German Shepherd/Husky to old age, and although his loss was difficult, it reminded me how much joy dogs bring into our lives. I would love the opportunity to share that extra love and attention with another amazing dog while their family is away. I’m a lifelong dog lover with more than two decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, ranging from 2 to 165 pounds. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, quirks, routines, and preferences and tailoring my care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I care for every dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, affection, and walks when weather permits and with the owner’s approval. My 60-by-55-foot fully fenced yard provides plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy multiple potty breaks throughout the day. I also work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be present and attentive to my furry guests. Whether your pup loves cuddles or prefers personal space, I’m happy to follow their lead and respect their individual needs. With experience caring for dogs who are anxious, fearful, reactive, or more challenging to handle, I’ve developed strong observational skills and can recognize signs of stress, discomfort, illness, or injury. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following specific care instructions and routines, and providing basic first aid when needed. Most importantly, I love spoiling my furry guests because, in my opinion, they’re on vacation too! 🐾 You’re welcome to bring their regular food, treats, favorite toys, bed, blanket, or other comfort items to help make their stay familiar and special. I’m dependable in all weather conditions and always prioritize the safety, health, and comfort of every guest. If my calendar shows that I’m unavailable, please feel free to reach out anyway. I’m flexible whenever possible and happy to see if we can find a time that works. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member into our home! ****** ******** ***** I’m proud to share that I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer with Can Do Canines and regularly participate in dog-related events. These experiences have been incredibly rewarding, and I’m grateful to be able to contribute to the care, training, and support of these remarkable dogs as they prepare to change lives. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be readily available and provide pets with plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced-in yard, which is ideal for multiple potty breaks, outdoor playtime, and exercise throughout the day. Caring for a pet comes down to consistently meeting their physical, emotional, and health needs. The exact details vary depending on the animal, of course! -I have a 60-by-55-foot fully fenced yard and pet gates in the house (if needed); -I love to go for walks with pets; -I love to cuddle and play with pets if that’s what they are into; -I feed them a balanced diet per owners’ instructions. Fresh water is always available. -I’d love to comb them if tools are provided from owners; -I provide lots of daily update pictures and/or videos; -And would be open to any reasonable requests owners might have.
“Kelly was great with my dog Brandy. Always on-time for appointments. Brandy would sit by a window waiting for Kelly to arrive, so I know Brandy enjoyed spending time with Kelly. I highly recommend Kelly for anyone needing a dog walker.”
About: Ever since I was a kid, I begged my parents for a dog every day of my life. I never got one as a kid, but I have sure made up for it since! I got involved with Grey Face Rescue and have been fostering dogs for the last 5 years. I am very proud to have gotten seven foster dogs to their forever homes. If it was up to me, I would have many dogs of my own, but I have a crazy work schedule in the summer, which would not allow me to care for a dog. In the fall, winter, and spring I love to bring animals into my home. During these months, I work from home and I am able to give many walks and lots of attention! My fosters typically get two 30 minute walks a day, which is something I also really enjoy. If your dog comes to stay with me, they would get to meet my child who loves dogs just as much as I do, and my cat who pretty much stays clear of any dog that is brought into the home. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I work from home and have constant availability to meet any dog’s schedule. I love providing them with multiple daily walks and any sort of engagement they need. There are no off-limits areas for your dog in my home. All of our furniture is open to pets. We are very well-versed in keeping food off the counter and ensuring that is a safe environment for your dog. I even have multiple size dog beds from my years of fostering as well as toys, bowls and all the equipment so they can travel lightly!

“Nickolai was very communicative and responsive. We received pictures of our girl and updates throughout her stay with Nickolai. The home has a very large fenced-in backyard which our dog enjoyed immensely. We mentioned that our dog is accustomed to going on walks and Nickolai was kind enough to take her out for walks around the neighborhood.”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Promise and her dogs! She provided frequent updates, was very communicative, and I know she took the best care of Bo! He got lots of playtime and love, and I had complete peace of mind while I was away. I cannot recommend Promise enough and already have my dog’s next stay booked with her. Thank you, Promise!!”
“Jordan did a great job of caring for our senior dog for 3 nights at his home. His communication was prompt and he provided daily photos and updates. Jordan also has a very lovely fenced in back yard with tennis balls ready to toss. Also, he had water already set up for our dog before we even arrived. We will book with Jordan again.”
“Our dog goes from bashful to attention seeking very quickly. Dustin took great care of our pooch and sent us photos daily. Probably gave her nose butter better than we do. Washed her blanket too. Top notch sitter.”
“This was my first time using this app and I was a little skeptical but Amy was absolutely amazing to deal with and treated my dog like her own I would recommend her to anyone and will continue to use her service in the future.”
“Terrie responded to my booking request right away and we met her the next day. I was impressed at how she let my pup explore and engaged with her on her own time. My pup had a blast and I knew Terrie was attentive and caring while she was with her. I would definitely use her again!”
“Trish & Robert were wonderful hosts for Ruby. She had a great time running around their backyard when we met and kept me in the loop with regular updates and photos. Would definitely be looking to see if they are available the next time I have to travel without Ruby.”
“Aastha and Dan were phenomenal. Our dog gets very anxious at drop-off, and they went above and beyond to ease his transition and make him feel at home. Aastha sent many pictures and messages throughout each day and they were incredibly considerate and attentive to our dog, especially over Fourth of July fireworks. We weren't sure if he would want to come home, he was having such fun with Aastha and Dan! Highly recommend -- they will be our first choice for boarding in the future.”
“We have used Eric and Martha 3 times in the last year and Ruby loves her stays with them. They are very flexible and easy to work with and they take such good care of our pup. I made a mistake in the last booking and they were very understanding and even went out of their way in making accommodations for us. They are both so sweet with Ruby and they care for her as if she was their own. They send alot of photos and videos, which we love. We will definitely use them again!”
“Jennifer was so great with my dog Jake!!! He is a rescue so he can get a little nervous at times, she handled it very well and did a wonderful job with him. Would recommend 10/10”
“This was our first booking with Jacquie and Kyle and we felt super comfortable leaving our dog for 10 days with them. We got lots of picture updates and she was clearly very happy and entertained and enjoyed playing with the other two dogs they were concurrently boarding. We’ll definitely rebook if the need arises again.”
“This was the first time Dipper has stayed with William. She did very well. William is very kind and this was reflected in Dippers behavior when I picked her up-relaxed, tail wagging, as if she'd come from a mini-vacation. Great communication and plenty of pictures too!”
“Lori was amazing! She made Nipsey feel like a part of the family! She updated me everyday and sent pictures of Nipsey. Nipsey definitely enjoyed himself and we will most certainly book her again!”
“Sarah and her family are the sweetest. I really appreciate that Sarah had a cage and bed for Apollo to stay in, so we didn’t have to try to pack it. I think Apollo really enjoyed his stay, and we will definitely have Sarah as an option again. Thank you for your great care and your lovely family. Apollo also says thank you :)”
“Was very open with communication and accommodating. I hope to be able to use her again in the near future. I was very nervous of the stay but she was welcoming and filled with warmth that eased me.”
“Kira took great care of our dogs and sent lots of photos during the visit; they looked very happy! They took lots of daily walks and excursions to dog parks.”
“Brenda & Alvin M. were great. We have always boarded Remy in the past but she seems to get very stressed. She likes a lot of attention and cuddles. We appreciated the pictures and updates daily. Remy seemed very comfortable with them. We would definitely use them again.”
