“Stacy was wonderful with my two cats! I’ve never actually dropped them off with anyone before, so this was a first for me. Stacy made the process painless, and was available over a holiday weekend, which was a lifesaver! She provided lots of updates each day, including photos. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Great setting on a farm in rural Lake City. Lovely place for Luna to spend a few days running around and exploring :) Communication was frequent and picture updates were fun and appreciated.”
“Geezer loves going to Andrea. He particularly looks forward to all the new pups/dogs he will meet. He comes home exhausted and happy- exactly what you want your pup to be.”
“Jasmine did a great job communicating both before and during Charlie's stay. Jasmine asked about Charlie's normal routine and was willing to follow that so he'd feel comfortable. Also, I loved getting the pictures she sent while he was there. I felt like my pup was well cared for and would definitely rebook with Jasmine!”
“Elizabeth is an amazing pet sitter! Her communication, kindness and professionalism are amazing. Skye seemed like sleeping better at her place 😆 we definitely would use her services again!!”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of dogs and cat my whole life. I currently have 1 cat and 2 small dogs in my house who get along and also have their own space when needed! I do work during the day but I’m usually available before/after and on weekends. My mom does live with me and she works from home so she is able to help out during the day with bathroom times. I’m willing to host animals overnight if they seem like a good fit! My dogs have always used an invisible fence but any visiting dogs will be on a leash unless told otherwise. Dogs typically get 5+ bathroom breaks a day and are encouraged to go outside for a good 10 minutes each time. Pets are allowed on the furniture and bed, because they’re considered family. Cats are typically left in the (finished/liveable) basement separate from the dogs, unless the cat wants to venture upstairs then be my guest.
“Drew was awesome. Communicated thoroughly and took time to send pictures of my dog. He was flexible with both drop off and pick up, which was a huge lifesaver due to change in travel plans (out of my control). I am super grateful- my dog came home clean, happy and healthy. Highly recommend!”
“Emma was great with communication and I felt comfortable leaving Avena in her care. Clearly Avena had a great day because she’s been napping on and off since I picked her up 😂 thank you, Emma, for taking care of my girl ☺️”
“Ruby had a great time with this sweet family. Kyle was very responsive and sent lots of pictures for us to see while we were away. She came home seeming to have good energy, which tells me she was happy there. Thanks for caring for our fur baby! Hope we meet again!”
“Matthew and Angela are the best! Splash usually gets anxiety and doesn’t eat when we leave them, but for the first time, she was happy and content! Thank you for taking such loving care of our fur babies!!!”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“Donna did great. She sent updates with pictures and was flexible with times for pick up/drop-off. She was able to exercise our dog, give him his oral medications, let him out in the middle of the night when he demanded, and provide lots of cuddles.”
“Erica K. was a wonderful choice for boarding Lydia, a terrier mix, over a long weekend. She was kind and patient, and really took the time to get to know our dog and family. She was willing to both pickup and dropoff, which made the whole process so much easier for our vacation. Erica sent frequent pictures and videos and kept us updated to our dog's situation. She was also open about how her pet sitting style was approached in her home and property. In addition, it was quite apparent that the dogs they sat would have plenty of outside exercise, love and attention, as well as freedom to be a dog. Lydia loved romping around in the snow, lying in front of their fire place, and interacting with their dogs. We also learned that our dog is pretty corteous to cats, but very interested. Their four acres of land and stream are a definite amenity to an active dog's lifestyle. Not only do I highly recommend her services, but I will also be a returning customer to both Rover and her pet care. ~DR”
“Erin, Brandon and family were amazing. Our mini-golden doodle was well cared for and received lots of love and snuggles from the kids. Communication was great with pictures and updates throughout his stay. Would highly recommend this sweet family.”
About: I have raised puppies and adult dogs for many years, training them and providing the best care possible. I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I am comfortable with medication administration and high anxiety and energy dogs. I currently work full time, however my boyfriend works opposite shift of me so our pets are able to be let out frequently. Evenings are usually open for me as well as most weekends. I have a fenced large yard. I have kennels if needed and am open to using kennels provided. I can administer medication, walk dogs, brush them, and provide overnight care.

“Emma was very responsive and accomodated for all our needs. It was the first time we left our kitten and although we missed him a lot, we knew we could trust Emma and enjoyed our trip 😄”
“Jade took great care of Luna and Casper Kitty while they boarded with her. Both cats were comfortable and well looked after the entire time. She communicated with me daily and sent photos, which was so reassuring. I felt very confident leaving them in her care and would happily book Jade again!”

“Jess was wonderful, very easy to work with and very responsive to messages! Marley seemed to have a great time and we loved getting picture updates throughout her stay!! I would highly recommend Jess and would book her again!”
“Rhea was so sweet & accommodating when our drop off time changed. Her communication was really wonderful- she kept me posted on how Luna was doing during her stay & responded quickly. Thanks so much!”
About: My husband & I both work during the day so your pet would be alone from approximately 730a-3p. We frequently go for walks after work or play ball in our modest back yard. I grew up with dogs in my home and always had the responsibility of caring for them. I have worked with a variety of breeds and sizes and am comfortable with them all. I am familiar with separation anxiety. I have a high energy young labrador so after work I typically take a long walk or go to the park to play ball. My pup is friendly to other dogs and has no hesitation sharing his toys, food, or humans. I allow dogs on the bed but will follow your house rules to ensure consistency. For drop ins I am available in the early mornings and after 430pm to stop in and care for your pet. I try to be as flexible as possible! I have a cat and dog in my home and they are both up to date on all vaccinations. Colt, is a beautiful lab with the sweetest temper. I have a modest yard with plenty of room for a dog to run but do not have a fence.
“David was so great. He took Bandido on last minute for an afternoon and evening. Went very smoothly. David was obviously comfortable with big dogs. I will definitely use David in the future.”
“Highly recommend Mike—he was incredibly easy to work with, highly responsive, and flexible. He offered up a meet/greet in advance which was incredibly helpful. My pup Taco was comfortable with him right away—he is definitely a dog lover!”
“Matt & Angie are the best! Literal lifesavers! I was in a massive bind with a school event and they agreed to take my dog in on super short notice, and were incredibly pleasant and sweet from start to finish. It’s clear they truly love animals. They treated her like their own and kept me updated with videos and pictures. It made a stressful day so much easier knowing she was in such good hands. She had so much fun and made new friends! I felt 100% comfortable leaving her in their hands. Highly, highly recommend!”
“First time at doggy daycare for our 7 yr old Chi mix - both he and our puppy were well cared for and arrived home this evening tired snd happy. Knowing they were safe made our time away worry free! Thank you Stacy for a great experience.”
“Michelle was great! She helped me out with a last minute request. Arlo had a great time staying at her place. I would definitely recommend boarding with her! Thank you so much Michelle :)”
“Bean had the best time with Scott & Jennifer! They kept us updated & sent adorable pictures of Bean throughout the visit! We highly recommend them & will be bringing Bean back again!”
“This was the first time that we have left our puppies (9 months and 9 weeks). Erica and family treated them so well and sent pictures and videos. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our babies 😊”
About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.
About: I have been a pet sitter for many years. Also, I have always had a dog and cat of my own since I was a young child. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. I feel it's important that animals get exercise and will take your dog for walks and make sure they are comfortable and happy. Your pet will get lots of love in my home!! I work from home and can attend to them anytime. I will walk them as I do for my own dogs. They will get to play outside in a large wooded area. I live out in the country on 8 acres. You pet will be in paradise! Your pet will sleep in my home. My other dogs are friendly. They are used to having other dogs stay with us. I can also care for your pet in your home.
About: -Small Pet Care As Well- I have extensive experience volunteering at animal shelters for years, along with personal pet care for individuals. I've cared for pets of various sizes, ages, and abilities, including administering medication as needed. I recognize the unique needs of each pet, and I provide the patience, attention, and care they require. My love for animals ensures I treat every pet as if they were my own. Feel free to message me to talk through your pet’s specific needs and how I can help. Caring for your pet fits naturally into my routine since I have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available for feedings, walks, or check-ins throughout the day. As a freelance graphic designer, I set my own hours, and I like filling that flexibility with time helping others and their pets. I’m always respectful of you and your pet’s boundaries, rules, and daily routines, ensuring their comfort. I have also worked as a house keeper, so I tidy up every chance I get.
About: I love dogs and would love to watch or walk yours!! I've watched many dogs in my life of neighbors or friends. I've done drop-ins and dog walk for several years now. I currently have 2 dogs!! I'm pretty flexible, let me know what your needs are and I can most likely fit them in!! Most mornings and afternoons I'm free, evenings are a little busier. I'm willing to drive to your house to walk your dog. Also, if you are gone on vacation or work during the day I can come drop in a few times a day and play/fed/walk your pup!
About: I have been around animals and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my 17 yr old baby girl and I miss the companionship but not quite ready for a new pup! I am responsible, attentive, and will make sure your baby gets top notch care! I work real close to home so I am able to pop by when I have a break and check in on the babies! I am usually home every night. I care for your babies just as I would mine.. animals are the bestest of friends and deserve the best of the best. Lots of love and attention will be given.
About: I have always been an avid animal-lover. From childhood into adulthood, I have owned and cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, birds & fish. My family & I currently share our home with two dogs, a bearded dragon, a Russian tortoise, & a ball python. I have several years of professional work experience in animal care (zoo, kennel care, walking, basic grooming) and wildlife / parks & recreation—both of which are relevant. I enjoy the outdoors and keeping all of our furry (& scaly) friends happy. I will board dogs, small mammals, reptiles & birds in my home! Upon request, I can do drop-in visits for cats or exotic animals within a 15 mile radius. I am currently a stay-at-home mom & so my schedule allows me to be at home majority of the time. If I need to leave the house, it’s never for more than a couple of hours. I have a large four-story home, which provides amble space for pets to play or to be separated if need be. I utilize crates for dogs who need or prefer it. Our yard is unfenced, so I use slip leads and tie-out cables for potty time.

About: HELLO! I have been taking care of all kinds of dogs from pups to senior pets who have special needs. I have done stuff like this ever since I was in middle school. I am very flexible with my time. I do have a cat allergy but that won’t stop me from that either! I’m always here to help you’re best friend 😊 Im very flexible with my schedule for a couple months! I can do early mornings to late nights. I’m always able to help with anything! I’m very detail oriented and need straightforward instructions in order to properly care for a pet. The more straightforward the instructions the better! I treat any pet as if they were my own. Maybe a chance to spoil with my special frozen pet friendly watermelon slush for the hot summer days? Or a little trip to get a pup cup? My dogs are spoiled and I miss them so much so this would be a win-win for the both of us 🤣
About: Hello! my name is Kayla, and i’m so excited to meet your furry friend! i have been a dog owner since the time I was a child, and have enjoyed caring for friend and family’s pets over the last few years. I am looking to fill my free time with boarding, house sitting and dog walking and can’t wait to hear from you soon! I work Monday-Friday but can let your pets out during my lunch break. I am free on weekends. I am a single mom and am looking to fill my up my schedule on the days I don’t have my kiddos. Your furry friend will be my new best friend. I love cuddles, being active and going on walks, and playing with your pets. Your doggo will be treated like a member of my family!
