“There aren't enough words to describe how awesome Rebekah and her family were to our little pup while we were on vacation. From the daily updates, to making her feel like a part of their family, they truly were amazing every step of the way. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing boarding”

“My dog seems to enjoy staying with Thomas and Sue and she doesn't like being away from me so that is comforting. They have a nice mellow dog that she gets along well with so I think it is fun for her since she doesn't get opportunity to play with other dogs often. They give her lots of attention and care for her well.”

“This was our first time having someone watch our dog Hazel while we went on vacation, I could tell by the pictures sent how comfortable Hazel was in Becky's care. It was so nice to know she was having a good time playing with Pepper (Becky's dog) and enjoying her little vacation while we had ours. We will definitely contact Becky for future pet sitting needs.”

“These guys are amazing! They have been very attentive to Axel. They have routines, send pictures, and follow all of our dogs needs. We will definitely be going back!”


“Jessica was awesome! She kept me updated on how Winnie was settling in and enjoying her time. Winnie came home exhausted from all the running around and playing she did. Will definitely be using Jessica for any future needs!”

“We needed a last minute overnight sitter for our 13 week old rottweiler who is a big boy. So grateful to have found Hannah. We were able to drop Tank off for an overnight stay within an hour notice! Hannah was so sweet and kept us updated with cute picture updates through his whole stay. Definitely recommend!!”

“Our dogs loved it here. The perfect environment for them. Our one dog is a very anxious dog and she usually doesn’t do good with boarding and when she comes back she’s a wreck but she came home perfectly normal and the dogs loved it there. Candace and her husband were so kind and treated them like their own. I have our next stay already booked for them.”

“Christina and Jeremy are great! Super quick to respond. They send updates with pictures and our puppy always come home exhausted. We are and will continue to be repeat clients!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Linzy & her family! Sadie absolutely loved them and came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. 🐾❤️ If your dog loves kids, this is a fantastic option! They were so sweet with her, and it was obvious she had a great time being part of their family for a bit. We felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such a loving home. We would absolutely recommend and would happily book with them again!”

“Sami is older and Katie makes sure that she's taken care of. A good sign Is that sami is eating all of her food. She won't eat if she's nervous about her surroundings.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs since I was 12 years old, I’ve trained,fed, and exercised my family pets, and dog sat for extended family for years. I currently stay at home mom. I’m able to let my pets out whenever they need me to, being a stay at home mom lets me interact with my pets anytime so they are never alone. I live on 34 acres but currently do not have a fenced in yard. My dog has a e-collar which keeps him close to home. I can also provide a long lead if a pet is known to wonder.
“Outstanding. Totally recommend her, and I look forward to using her services more. Arlo, my mellow Husky, was so relaxed and content when I picked him up. She even sent several photos and updates during his stay.”

“Thank you Karlee for taking care of Carmen! Carmen travels with us a lot and it’s so helpful for us to have a safe place for her stay when we are away from home and have non dog activities planned.”

“Jen was super accommodating when booking our long weekend. She made the process super easy. Jen sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend and I knew our puppy was in good hands (and having fun). Most importantly - Kal was happy and healthy when we picked him up! He will likely be sleeping for the next week from being worn out!”


“Andrea was great! We would highly recommend if you have a high energy dog. She was the first one to ever care for our baby. At the time he was an 11 month old, in tact, Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. He is A LOT to handle. We got daily updates and pictures which was awesome. He appeared to be having the time of his life and not missing us at all. She allows her dogs on the furniture but we don’t. We asked her to keep him on the floor. We received pictures where her dog was on the furniture but ours was on the floor. We appreciated not having to retrain him.”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Thor! It was such a relief knowing Thor was in great hands, and I was able to focus on visiting with my kiddos and cooking for the troops. Thank you, and I will be booking with you again.”


About: I have taken care of cats for around 5 years. I have experience with all ages, and a variety of different types. I have been trusted to care for the cats of my friends and family like they are my own while they are away and I wanted to extend that to others as well!
About: I have been walking dogs for 3 years. The dog I currently walk is a Golden Retriever with a lot of energy! I have also walked other large dogs as well as small dogs. I currently walk a dog every morning Monday through Friday, and 2 small dogs as needed. We enjoy going for walks and to the dog park if requested. We have gone on car rides to different parks for walks as well as walking in the neighborhood. I love the time I get to spend with the dogs. Dog walking is what I do. Every day Monday through Friday I walk a Golden Retriever. After that I am open to taking on more walking or drop in visits. When going to clients homes I am always careful to be sure to lock up the home after our walk. I check to be sure that there is adequate water. I am respectful of others private space and leave things as I find them. I give treats if requested. On hot days we can keep walks shorter if requested. I will also brush your dog if you request this.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my six years of dedicated, hands-on experience caring for animals around the clock. I grew up with two dogs and a cat, caring for them through all stages of life—including senior care and end-of-life comfort. I also have experience working with rescues my family adopted, which taught me patience and adaptability with animals of different backgrounds and temperaments. I’m confident working with puppies, senior pets, and those needing special attention, and I truly love and treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently have an open schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and fully dedicate time to pet care. I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, making sure I’m available for feeding times, walks, play, and any special routines or requests. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all owner instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise, ensuring fresh water and a clean environment. Whether supervising play, going for walks, or offering companionship, I aim to reduce stress and make pets feel secure and well cared for in any setting.

“Emma was amazing. We however dropped the ball this time with a few things and she was so understanding. The pups loved her. Her communication was awesome. Will definitely use her again if she can put up with us 🤦🏻♀️🤣”


About: I’ve taken care of cats for most of my life due to my aunt having 15 cats at one point. I’ve scooped the litter boxes, fed them, and given them love. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe and comfortable. Whether they enjoy playtime, cuddles, or just having someone close, I’m happy to help.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and also worked with all different types of dogs while working at a doggy day care. I learned there body language and behaviors I currently work part time and have plenty of time to spare and I just want to do something I love. More open on weekdays then weekends. I treat them as my own. Take them on many walks and make sure they get everything they need. Play with them and keep them company
About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
“Very attentive to Mojo. Mojo was very scared and wouldn’t come out of his kennel/carrier, but Thomas tried to get him out with food and toys, lots of patience! He has a very calm demeanor to help calm your pet.”

About: My name is Corrie and I love animals, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs and 2 kids. They mean so much to me. I have a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I love going for walks with my dogs. I have a big yard that's 2.5 acres and we roam around the whole thing. Some of it's long grass so I will check for ticks. I cut or file my own dogs nails as well and can offer that if needed depending how well the dog or cat does. I work full time but work from home some days of the week, Wednesdays and Fridays. We are available in evenings and weekends. Especially in the winter. We have a large yard. Most of the time we let the dogs out on a 50 foot leash for quick potty breaks. Rocky is allowed to roam a little. Otherwise we walk the dogs around the yard or neighborhood. Have a large crate when needed.

About: I worked at a veterinary hospital for about three years, gaining hands-on experience with animal care. Recently, I’ve begun pet sitting more regularly; I’ve been around dogs, cats, and chickens since I was young. I’ve always had a strong love for animals and enjoy being around them. I’ve had the opportunity to pet sit for many families and pets. I truly enjoy building trust and relationships with both pets and their owners.
“Andrea provided excellent care for my cat for 5 days and my cat loved her. She was very quick to respond to my inquiries and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her services!”

“Hannah was great with our puppy! Sent photos shortly after I left l, which put my mind at ease since this was the first time bringing him there. He seemed to love her and his time there! Will definitely use her again! She was also flexible with my pickup time as it shifted due to work. Thank you Hannah!”

“Rebekah was amazing watching our pup and we loved all the pictures she took. Her pup was so sweet and played so well with ours. Rebekah was so easy to communicate and coordinate with!”

“Thomas took great care of our pup. He was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. Our schedule was unpredictable, so we appreciated how flexible he was when we adjusted times. Simone clearly had a fun day, cause she conked out when we got home. Would definitely recommend!”

About: My love for animals goes well back to when I was 4 or 5 and I was in charge of letting our neighbors dog out while they were on vk. (my mom was really there ;)) I always loved the 2 cats we had I'm sure but my love started growing for all animals when I took on that letting the neighbors pets out. Through highschool I volunteered when I could at the animal shelter a couple cities over and dreamed about owning my own training and boarding facility when I graduated. Well life pushed me into college and a career and 10 plus years later here I am with a degree I don't want a career in.... I'm going back to my dreams and would love for your dogs to be a part of the start of it! I have 3 fur babies of my own a cat and two dogs! All three rescues and loving life! Any questions feel free to reach out! Cant wait to meet everyone! I currently work Monday through Friday 8 to 5 as an intake coordinator for a hospital from home. My love is animals so all my spare time goes to fostering and volunteering for ruffstart along with taking care of others furbabies. All pets deserve lots of love but discipline when needed. I believe in positive reinforcement but some pups need a little more guidance and a shorter leash than others.. I plan on following owners directions and requests but offer guidance if wanted or needed. If all you want me to do is let your fur babies out and spoil them rotten I would absolutely love doing that! For boarding and doggy daycare I have an older resident dog so we can only take laid back submissive dogs for now. We do habe the capability to separate if she needs a break. We have a big Shepard mix that loves to play with everyone at only 3 years old!

“Only our second visit but Candace has helped Fern feel so welcome and she is all tuckered out when she gets home which tells me she is having a great time! Thank you Candace!”

“Sophia was very kind and welcoming of our pup. We received pics and updates throughout her doggy daycare experience. I felt that our dog was well cared for and loved during her stay.”

“Karlee has done an amazing job taking care of Thor! When I drop him off he gets excited to see her everytime and I know he's in good hands! Karlee is very good at giving updates and sending pictures during his daycare! I highly recommend Karlee's daycare service it is easily worth what you pay! Thanks Karlee!”

“Christina took good care of my dogs! I was a little nervous about leaving them, but we met the week before to see her and the yard, so when it was time to leave them there, they went with Christina easily. She walked them and sent me pictures during the day :)”

“Kristi took very good care of Thor during his stay! When I picked him up it seemed like he had a very eventful day! Even though it was a rainy he was still very clean as she made sure to clean him up before I got there! She made sure to answer my questions and send plenty of updates during the day! She went out of her way to answer a question I had when I was picking Thor up responding and getting an answer on her own time! I highly recommend Kristi's services! Thank you Kristi!”

Communication with pet owners is consistent so you always feel informed and confident your pet is being well cared for.

I know when your dog has gone to the bathroom and not left unsupervised outside for hours (or with other dogs). Why your Pet will love it here: -it's a calm/relaxed home environment, they will feel safe (no stress of other dogs) -they will get LOTS of attention all throughout the day (I'm home all day) and feel loved -same routine as home (feeding, walks, potty breaks) so they know what to expect We are animal lovers so we enjoy pet care, we have 3 cats. We enjoy having dogs visit and stay with us, it gives us the opportunity to help families who need care for their beloved pet and a chance for us to pamper a dog for a few days and enjoy them! We do not have any dogs so it’s most likely your dog will be the only one staying with us, we like calm, low key environments so your dog can be relaxed and feel safe.
“Kayti took great care of Sutton for the day in her home. She shared great pictures during the day of Sutton playing in the yard with other pups. It made our busy day of soccer games and grad parties easier to enjoy knowing our puppy was being well cared for. Thanks, Kayti!”

About: I’ve been around animals all my life. I have three goldendoodles, Sullie who’s 10, Allie who’s 5, and Marlie who’s 2. I have helped potty train them all and have taught them basic tricks. I have also cared for friends/families pets when in need. I love all animals and enjoy making them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to help. I’m currently a full-time nursing student and have a summer nurse internship working 12 hour shifts, but I have multiple days off throughout the week that allow me to spend quality time caring for pets. My schedule varies, so I keep my availability updated. When I’m caring for your pet, they’ll get lots of attention, love, and dependable care! I always try to stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress free. In your home, I will provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, potty breaks, and lots of attention and affection. I also make sure the home is left clean and secure. I’ll also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is doing well!
About: I have been surrounded by dogs almost my entire life. I love the unconditional love they give. I enjoy spending time outside but also can relax inside. Whatever suits your dog best. I’ve dealt with crazy hyper dogs (like my own) and also the dogs that rather relax alone. Each holds a special place in my heart. I work full time currently 9 hour days Monday-Thursday and a 4 hours day Friday mornings! If your dogs are comfortable being home longer during the day I am more than happy to hangout in the evenings! Fridays midday-Sunday evenings is when I am most available to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve! I love to be outside so keeping an eye on any dog while letting them outside will not be an issue. I can leash them if preferred. The dog will be in the comfort on their own house!!
About: I've had two cats for 10 years. I also took care of a black lab while his owner was at work. I played ball, potty breaks, cuddles & plenty of love. Also pet sit for friends while they were on vacation for a week, cats. I'm currently unemployed at this time and occassionaly volunteer or attend events, mostly for a week or two, out of town. But for the most part, I'm available. I care for pets while the owner is at work and the owner keeps me up to date on services needed. I'm willing to house solely by myself for short or long term periods of time, 1 week up to a month.
About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.

About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.
“I'm happy to have chosen Joseph to walk my Husky, Maya! He would always show up for our designated time and day to walk Maya, no matter how cold it was. which I really appreciate. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for someone to walk their dog as I always knew she was in good hands. Thank you Joseph!”

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.
About: Hi! My name is Ashlie, I live in Brooklyn Park, MN.

He’s a very social dog and used to being around other dogs. If you need a dog sitter, I can take your dog on several walks and to various parks each day, they will come home tired and happy! Your dog is welcome to stay in my home or we can stay in your home if preferred. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!! Thank you for considering me! Currently I have a lot of availability.

About: I grew up in a household full of animals, caring for a husky, a German shepherd, three cats, two bunnies, and a hamster. This gave me hands-on experience with pets of different sizes, temperaments, and care requirements. I've also dog-sat numerous times, including for pets needing medication, which I have administered with care and precision. My background ensures I'm comfortable with diverse needs, from playful puppies to senior pets. I bring a nurturing approach, a deep understanding of animals, and a commitment to treating every pet like they're part of the family! I currently have a very open schedule, and can be at home most of the day. I would have lots of time to spend with your pup or kitty. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax, play, and feel at ease. I follow the owner’s care instructions closely, ensuring their pet’s routine, diet, and exercise needs are met. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routine to minimize stress.

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and raising animals, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and an understanding of different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with animals and my dedication to their happiness, whether that means playtime, walks, or simply giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is already a part of my daily routine. Between feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping up with my own dogs, I’m used to giving animals structure and attention every single day. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening walks, pets are always the center of my schedule. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space where they feel welcomed as part of the family. I stick to regular feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give lots of love and attention. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their routines as closely as possible, whether mealtime, walks, or bedtime, so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to always create consistency, comfort, and trust.
About: I have five years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals for friends, family, and neighbors.

Pet care fits easily into my day because I’m home and available throughout the day. I enjoy giving pets the time, attention, and care they need to feel happy and comfortable. I make pets feel safe and loved by following their routine, giving them playtime, attention, and keeping their space clean. Whether in my home or theirs, I make sure they’re happy and comfortable.
About: Hello there! My partner Andrew and I share a true love of animals, as well as traveling, and over the past 11 years we have offered our services as pet sitters and care-givers as a way to pursue 2 passions at once! We like to see it as a win-win for us and you, as we have used this platform and others as a way to both earn, and save money, while having meaningful experiences along the way. Having both grown up with animals and then having our own, as well as both being the eldest sibling of large families, has given us a lot of genuine experience. We are definitely what you would call "naturals". Animals not only like us but feel safe and comfortable with us. Our reputation and references are something we have worked hard for and consider of the utmost value. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to do this professionally and have had a great experience here on Rover, as well as via word of mouth. We have recently returned to Minnesota where I am from and once again offering ourselves up as dog walkers and house/pet sitters! I know leaving not only your pet but your house takes a lot of trust and so I would love to do whatever I can to assure you they are both safe. As you can see we have glowing reviews on Rover, and additionally, tons of glowing reviews on airbnb which I can provide a link to if you send us a booking request. I can think of no better way than to prove we are what we are what we believe ourselves to be, something we pride ourselves on being able to say, and shows the effort we have put into each sit/stay to take care of animals and homes as if they were our own. Some of the other things we do for work and are passionate about are: music, food service, teaching Spanish, writing, and instruments, child-care, coaching, and various outdoor activities. Please feel free to ask any questions and thank you for reading. Heather We are both working from home so are able to devote a lot of time to any animals we may be caring for. We are also very flexible and able to adapt to changes in scheduling. We are not currently able to host pets in our home but are able to accommodate any needs you or your pet may have in order to be and feel safe.

“There aren't enough words to describe how awesome Rebekah and her family were to our little pup while we were on vacation. From the daily updates, to making her feel like a part of their family, they truly were amazing every step of the way. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing boarding”

“My dog seems to enjoy staying with Thomas and Sue and she doesn't like being away from me so that is comforting. They have a nice mellow dog that she gets along well with so I think it is fun for her since she doesn't get opportunity to play with other dogs often. They give her lots of attention and care for her well.”

“This was our first time having someone watch our dog Hazel while we went on vacation, I could tell by the pictures sent how comfortable Hazel was in Becky's care. It was so nice to know she was having a good time playing with Pepper (Becky's dog) and enjoying her little vacation while we had ours. We will definitely contact Becky for future pet sitting needs.”

“These guys are amazing! They have been very attentive to Axel. They have routines, send pictures, and follow all of our dogs needs. We will definitely be going back!”


“Jessica was awesome! She kept me updated on how Winnie was settling in and enjoying her time. Winnie came home exhausted from all the running around and playing she did. Will definitely be using Jessica for any future needs!”

“We needed a last minute overnight sitter for our 13 week old rottweiler who is a big boy. So grateful to have found Hannah. We were able to drop Tank off for an overnight stay within an hour notice! Hannah was so sweet and kept us updated with cute picture updates through his whole stay. Definitely recommend!!”

“Our dogs loved it here. The perfect environment for them. Our one dog is a very anxious dog and she usually doesn’t do good with boarding and when she comes back she’s a wreck but she came home perfectly normal and the dogs loved it there. Candace and her husband were so kind and treated them like their own. I have our next stay already booked for them.”

“Christina and Jeremy are great! Super quick to respond. They send updates with pictures and our puppy always come home exhausted. We are and will continue to be repeat clients!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Linzy & her family! Sadie absolutely loved them and came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. 🐾❤️ If your dog loves kids, this is a fantastic option! They were so sweet with her, and it was obvious she had a great time being part of their family for a bit. We felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such a loving home. We would absolutely recommend and would happily book with them again!”

“Sami is older and Katie makes sure that she's taken care of. A good sign Is that sami is eating all of her food. She won't eat if she's nervous about her surroundings.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs since I was 12 years old, I’ve trained,fed, and exercised my family pets, and dog sat for extended family for years. I currently stay at home mom. I’m able to let my pets out whenever they need me to, being a stay at home mom lets me interact with my pets anytime so they are never alone. I live on 34 acres but currently do not have a fenced in yard. My dog has a e-collar which keeps him close to home. I can also provide a long lead if a pet is known to wonder.
“Outstanding. Totally recommend her, and I look forward to using her services more. Arlo, my mellow Husky, was so relaxed and content when I picked him up. She even sent several photos and updates during his stay.”

“Thank you Karlee for taking care of Carmen! Carmen travels with us a lot and it’s so helpful for us to have a safe place for her stay when we are away from home and have non dog activities planned.”


“Andrea was great! We would highly recommend if you have a high energy dog. She was the first one to ever care for our baby. At the time he was an 11 month old, in tact, Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. He is A LOT to handle. We got daily updates and pictures which was awesome. He appeared to be having the time of his life and not missing us at all. She allows her dogs on the furniture but we don’t. We asked her to keep him on the floor. We received pictures where her dog was on the furniture but ours was on the floor. We appreciated not having to retrain him.”

“Jen and Josh were great dog sitters! Their pet friendly home was the perfect oasis for our fur children to have a carefree night away from mom and dad. 10/10 would recommend”

“We're very happy with the service Crystal and Brandon provided when they cared for our dog for two weeks. They kept us posted frequently on how he was doing and sent awesome pictures. Crystal reached out with questions as needed. We'd like to have them watch him again.”
