“We're so thankful for Caitlin and her ability to take our boy Yogi for a last minute overnight stay. She's patient and kind and didn't judge him at all for being so overexcited lol. We're so happy to have found Caitlin and will definitely trust her with our boy again.”


“We absolutely love sending Betsy to stay with Jessica! Jessica is very friendly, keeps us updated & sent a day photo during Betsy’s stay! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Christine is a very sweet sitter! She communicated great prior and during the stay, and was flexible and understanding with me arriving a bit late to drop off and pickup due to traffic. She sent pictures often and made me feel like Ollie was enjoying himself and being well cared for. Her house is currently under renovation, so it was a little disorganized but she set up a great space for Ollie in the living room where he had lots of space to play and rest. She also gifted us a homemade dog blanket and a new jar of peanut butter! So sweet, thanks Christine.”
“Emily and her family are amazing! They took such wonderful care of my two little puppies. I was nervous to leave them with new people because they are so young but they did such an amazing job with them and I'm so thankful for that! Emily kept contact, sent pictures, and was so good to them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to book a stay with a Rover sitter.”

“Mikaela was wonderful hosting our pup. She was excellent at coordinating drop off and pick up. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sent to us. Our dog was always excited to go back over and they welcomed him warmly into their home.”

“This is my second time using Sydney to dog sit my dogs and it was a wonderful experience again! I highly recommend Sydney to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter. My dogs were very excited to go to her house and they looked very relaxed in all the pictures I received. She also let me know about a probable anxiety issue with one of my dogs upon pick up. Sydney was flexible with drop off and pick up times.”

“We are so happy with the great care Amanda gave our Bella. We felt our vacation was better because Bella was getting such great care. Photo updates helped us to relax and know she was doing well. We will definitely have Amanda take care of her again!”


“Sara has a very nice indoor/outdoor area for the dogs. The outdoor area is fenced in with plenty of room for dogs to run. Sara was very responsive to texts and even sent pictures and videos of Ozzy. Ozzy will definitely be coming back for a visit soon!”

“Stacy was great with my dogs. She kept me updated throughout the weekend as to how they were doing. She sent me photos. She gave them massages and took them out for walks. Will be booking with her again.”

“Karlee was excellent, Maverick came home exhausted from all the playtime he got! It was first time using Rover app, so was a little nervous going in, but she sent updates and pics. Will definately use her again!!”

About: As a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. With a calm, reliable presence and a deep understanding of each pet’s unique needs, I’m committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where your furry family member can thrive. I currently have availability on occasional weekdays and weekends, depending on the day. I’m happy to be flexible and work around your schedule when possible! When walking dogs, I prioritize safety, exercise, and enjoyment. I tailor each walk to your pup’s energy level, age, and temperament—whether it’s a brisk stroll, a leisurely sniff-filled adventure, or some playful time outside. I always ensure your dog stays hydrated, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every walk as a chance to build trust and connection with your pet.
“Lucy had a good time with Amy, Gregory and their family. She got along with the family's other pets and they enjoyed her and sent lots of pictures and updates. I am very comfortable with their care for Lucy and have scheduled again with them.”

“This was our 15 month old ShihPoo’s first overnight with a pet sitter. Mary Beth went the extra mile to make sure Ollie was comfortable, including a meet-and-greet the week of the stay. She provided lots of walks, some pics, and outside time with her own dog and family. Mary Beth and her family also comforted Ollie through his first thunderstorm! I highly recommend her for bookings!”

“Our Rusty stayed with Jon and Jessica and their family for three nights. We received photos and updates each day of his stay. He went for walks, played ball in the backyard and had fun with their kids. Jon and Jessica were very responsive in all our correspondence. Rusty was clean and happy when we picked him up. Would feel very comfortable having him stay with Jon, Jessica and family again!”

“Amazing! Thomas took such great care of our Aggie! Sent us pictures and kept us updated while on our 4 day trip. We were worried as we never had her away but Thomas made sure to let us know how it was going, and make Aggie feel comfortable and at home. Aggie is a BIG girl too! But she had fun! Thank you again! See you next time :)”

“Ashley and her family were great caregivers for our pup, Murphy! Communication was excellent (loved getting photo updates during the stay), and Murphy seemed to have really enjoyed her time at their home.”

“Loved working with Ashley, she always kept me up to date on how my dogs were doing, she took the time to understand the needs of each of them personally. She had an amazing set up in her garage so each dog had their personally space. Wonderful fenced in yard for them to be safe while having a place to have fun. Definitely would book with Ashley again.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Growing up with dogs, I quickly became in tune with their needs and can form a bond quickly! I go above and beyond to make every dog I meet feel loved and welcomed. I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses. I’m currently home with my little boy for the summer so my availability is virtually wide open! I’ll be able to provide walks, pets, and so much more. I have an outdoor kennel with a nice house in it if needed. Otherwise, I can provide a crate inside in a calm environment. My 2 dogs are around to play with your dog as well! If you’re worried about my dogs and your dog getting along, I can separate them-no problem.

“We're so grateful for Vanessa's house sitting service! Her care and attention to our cat was wonderful - I know he really enjoyed it! And we appreciated Vanessa's frequent updates on how things were going while we were away. If you're looking for a highly responsible and responsive person to love your pet(s) as you do, I highly recommend Vanessa! :-)”

“Mikayla did a great job with our senior kitty, who needed meds daily. I appreciated her thorough updates. And it was great to know our kitty was getting some love and attention while we were away!”


“This was our second time having Jessica check on our cats with drop in visits, and this was for a 10 day trip out of the country so we were a bit nervous about leaving them so long. Jessica provided lots of updates and pics and overall did a great job. She made us feel much better about having to leave our furniture babies for so long. We really appreciate you, thank you! 😊”

About: I've taken care of, trained and loved animals since I was little. Growing up that infatuation grew into a dream to have my own kennel and business. Now I own and operate Pawsitive Journey, so in a way uou could say that dream has turned into a reality. I'm experienced with a wide variety of behaved dogs, puppies and more. Don't be afraid to reach out. When your fur babies are in my care, they will be treated and cared for as family. I'm currently self-employed through Pawsitive Journey, so I will have plenty of time to provide your pet with the care, attention, and playtime you want and expect. I have a 6+ years of handling and caring for animals in general and would be able to provide the most comfort and the most exhilarating time while you are away, depending on what your pet requires.
About: I have had pets my whole life with different personalities. I currently have the most energetic dog with the biggest heart and personality and love him to pieces. I have taken care of my friends animals on numerous occasions. I moved from AZ to St Clud and several friends have flown me back to AZ to care for their pets. I am retired. I am willing to drop in and hang with your animal, feed or walk them. I am willing to stay at your home and watch your animals and your home if you need time away. I just move to St. Cloud from AZ. We have 1 dog. I would be willing to watch your animals at your home. I would be willing to take your dog on walks or just check in on your animals.

“Danielle has watched my cat twice now and has done a great job :) She took the time to come meet her and let me show her around ahead of time which was appreciated. She sends multiple photos and I can tell my cat is so happy to see her. Thanks Danielle!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and many other pets since birth. We used to raise dogs, now we have two medium sized dogs. I love animals and I hope to have a career where I can continue that passion. Just graduated from high school May 2025, and I have a schedule allowing me to be able to continue caring for animals and to continue this passion of mine! I have two medium family dogs and they are very important, special members of the family. I treat every single pet with care and respect.
“We were very pleased with Rachel Ann. She spent a lot of time with our 2 cats and was not in a hurry to just get in and get out. She was professional and very personable. I’d recommend her to anyone who asks.”

“Heather was great!!!! She contacted me with problems and sent pictures. She took amazing care of our kitties while we were away. She made a stressful weekend away for us a little easier. We will definitely book her again!!!”
“Alex did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She provided updates each day and communicated well. Our cat has been a bit under the weather lately and gets very stressed when we are gone so it was a relief to know someone was providing him with loving care. We would definitely book her again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a 4 year old Black Lab named Bear, and before him I had Coco, a Black Lab/Golden Retriever mix who was part of my family for 7 wonderful years (adopted at 8 and had her until the Rainbow Bridge). Caring for dogs through every stage of life has given me experience with everything from energetic young dogs to senior pets with changing needs. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve pet sat for friends and neighbors while they’ve been away on vacation, providing dependable care, exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe and well cared for when you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love to help give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with good company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m already used to planning my day around walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and giving my own dog the attention he needs, so adding another furry friend is something I truly enjoy. Because I’m home for most of the day, pets won’t be left alone for long periods and can receive plenty of attention, companionship, and bathroom breaks. I also enjoy being active, so walks and outdoor time are a regular part of my routine. Whether your pet needs lots of play or prefers a quieter, relaxed environment, I’m happy to match their routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly 4-year-old Black Lab, Bear, who has a gentle temperament and no history of aggression. He enjoys meeting other dogs and has always done well with them, but I’ll always prioritize slow, safe introductions based on each dog’s comfort level. I also have two children who have grown up around animals and understand that pets deserve respect, space, and gentle interactions. They know not to disturb dogs while they’re eating, sleeping, or if they want time to themselves. Any interactions with your pet will always be supervised. I believe every pet is unique, so I’ll follow your instructions closely to help maintain their normal routine and make them feel safe and at home. I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own.
“I can’t express how pleased I am with Kevin’s stay with Sydney. I was incredibly nervous to leave my dog for the first time but I was quickly relieved by how responsive, trustworthy, and kind Sydney is! My dog had a wonderful time playing all day:)!”

About: With 15+ years in the pet care industry, my experience from working at boarding faculties, doggy daycares, and pet hospitals has prepared me for taking care of your pets! 🐾 Incorporating pet care seamlessly into my day is second nature. It's all about blending routines. Having dedicated bonding time and play sessions make everyday enjoyable! Creating a safe and trusting environment is my top priority. I implement many safety measures, from secure play areas to health checks, to keep everyone safe & healthy. Your pet's comfort and well-being is extremely important to me!
“Awesome experience all the way around. Our two pups had a great stay and Heather's pup Aggie was the perfect co-host. Great fenced backyard for the pups to explore and play. We'll be back!”


“Sara was wonderful in her care of Wednesday. Sara saw how nervous Wednesday was and did a variety of things to give her a feeling of safety and comfort. I appreciate Sara’s sensitivity to the needs of our dog! Thanks so much Sara!”

“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: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. My love for animals started when I was young, walking dogs for neighbors and friends, and it quickly grew into a lifelong passion. As I got older, I volunteered at my local humane society and have continued providing trusted pet care for pets ever since. I have extensive experience working with dogs of all temperaments, including reactive dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who may show aggressive behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for every dog in my care. In addition, I have experience with housebreaking as well as basic obedience training, and I’m happy to help reinforce routines and good habits during your pet’s stay. I have experience with house breaking and basic obedience training. I work part time from home which gives me a lot of flexibility to do what I’m most passionate about which is taking care of animals!
“Karlee was great with Douglas! She was willing to take him for the day with just hours notice! Karlee sent pictures throughout the day to let me know how Douglas was doing. I would definitely recommend her and use her services again in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Hannah. I’m a life long pet owner and lover. I currently work from home, have a fenced-in yard, and have 3 dogs of my own, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life! Your dog will have plenty of company, attention, playtime, and outdoor time while staying with me. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐶❤️ We can’t wait to meet you! I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize calm, attentive care and always follow the routine and instructions provided by you. I provide a safe, comfortable home with a fenced-in yard for outdoor time. I follow each pet’s routine and care instructions closely, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.
About: Since day one, I have always had a dog in my life. A cat in my adult years and a few other critters throughout the years. They are all family! All my dogs have always been a big part of my life and I care for them deeply. Family/Friends have trusted me to care for their pets when needed. I am always happy to lend a helping hand, or a lap to cuddle on, an arm to throw a ball, or even lacing up those tennis shoes for a walk. I currently have a “teenager” (6 year American Staffordshire Terrier… major cuddles, playful, very sensitive stomach) and recently our senior Luna past over the rainbow bridge. I am patient and have energy for any requirement you may need while your babies are in my care. Working from home, I am quite flexible most days. I am an early riser and stay up late. So feedings, playtime, bathroom breaks, etc is not an issue for me. We have 5 acres of unfenced land to run around in. I also have a very large fenced Garden the dogs are allowed to roam in for off leash fun, as well as a sizeable wrap around deck to chill on and soak up the sun. We are outdoor people, so are our dog(s), so if it’s nice, you will find us out and about. With our training they do well to stay within our property and listen well if running around the yard. Communicate if your dog(s) need to be leashed (also have a leash line setup between trees to enjoy the outdoors as well). I would hope in any environment that your pets are trained and do well in the space provided or within, please communicate any special concerns, etc. I do have experience with “shock” collars for more so the ‘tone’ button, as we have wildlife and woods surrounding our house, we use this to protect our dogs from our surroundings periodically throughout the year. So I am comfortable using this method to ensure your pups stay safe.
About: Animals have always been apart of my life growing up my parents bred English mastiff and pugs. I showed dogs in 4-H for 4 years and it really helped me amass so much knowledge. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and they hold a very special place in my heart. With us your senior will be in the best of hands. I don’t have a regular 9-5 so most of my day is spent home with the pups. I have my dogs on a specific feeding/potty schedule but I am very flexible to make your pup feel as comfortable as possible. I like to think I treat them as one of my one while keeping in mind if the owner has and rules or requests of their own.
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!

About: I’m an animal lover with 3 amazing dogs of my own. I’ve had dogs for 14 years and they’ve spent the whole time spoiled, and I’d love to do the same for yours! I have 10 acres of farmland and a large home with lots of space for your pet to roam and have fun and play! Your pet will be well cared for and loved, played with and treated as one of the family!

I’ve been around dogs of all sizes before, so I know how to cuddle the little ones and handle the big guys! I’m also an approved foster for a local rescue, so I’m used to having all kinds of furry friends coming in and out of my home. I have experience with shy animals and know how to help a scared pup settle in and feel safe. I hope you’ll trust me to care for your special furry friend! My husband and I work only a few days a week on opposite schedules, so we’re almost always available to be home playing and snuggling our furry friends! We love dogs, so it’s a priority in our days to spend time with them. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs on their level. I’ve worked with extremely under socialized animals, and also dogs that need to be kept separated from other animals, so I have the space to make sure every dog is comfortable during their stay.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have hosted over 30 foster dogs for our local Humane Society. Some of our foster mamas have even given birth to their puppies at our home. I currently have a wonderful golden retriever, Mya, who is always happy to meet new friends. Mya and I enjoy hiking, camping, and spending as much time outside as possible. I have a horse (not on the property) and have had a variety of pets over the years including rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, chickens and sheep. I have a passion for animals and take pride in providing them with the best care possible. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am currently home full-time so your pet will never be left alone overnight or for long periods of time. Frequent potty breaks, walks and playtime are always readily available. **Please note: We are not available for pick-up or drop-off 7:30-8:30am or 2:30-3:30 M-F** My dogs, Mya, Sunny and Maple make an excellent welcoming comity and are always thrilled to meet new friends. We have a kennel room with 5x5 and 5x10 kennels to accommodate large dogs, small dogs and sibling pairs. We are located in Sauk Rapids on 40 acres with a long dirt driveway, perfect for safe walks. If pet parents are comfortable with field trips, our guests are welcome to join us for walks at local parks. Guaranteed they will go home happy and tired!

About: I've had pets my whole life, I watch the pets of my friends and family as often as I'm needed. I make sure they're fed, hydrated and go on walks daily. I also have experience working with blind and deaf dogs. I am on Medical Leave from work and pet care is what I am best at. I am free all day every day including weekends. I am best at caring for pets in other peoples homes. If I'm staying somewhere overnight i bring my own food, towels, blankets and pillows and i'm able to sleep anywhere including couches and floors. I am not able to watch pets in my own home as I live in a very small apartment that pets are not allowed in.

“Sierra was responsive to my request and messages. We booked and all was set. She confirmed the morning of the walk, and kept me updated on her arrival. She did great meeting Joe and on the walk. He has a great vibe and you can tell she loves animals. Both my pups were calm and relaxed around her.”

I currently have three cats, my cats are good with other animals but just would still keep your pet comfortable and have their own place. For your home you let me know what your comfortable with and what a daily schedule looks like for your pet.
About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. My love for animals started when I was young, walking dogs for neighbors and friends, and it quickly grew into a lifelong passion. As I got older, I volunteered at my local humane society and have continued providing trusted pet care for pets ever since. I have extensive experience working with dogs of all temperaments, including reactive dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who may show aggressive behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for every dog in my care. In addition, I have experience with housebreaking as well as basic obedience training, and I’m happy to help reinforce routines and good habits during your pet’s stay. I have experience with house breaking and basic obedience training. I work part time from home which gives me a lot of flexibility to do what I’m most passionate about which is taking care of animals!
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.
About: I have grown up with dogs and many other pets since birth. We used to raise dogs, now we have two medium sized dogs. I love animals and I hope to have a career where I can continue that passion. Just graduated from high school May 2025, and I have a schedule allowing me to be able to continue caring for animals and to continue this passion of mine! I have two medium family dogs and they are very important, special members of the family. I treat every single pet with care and respect.
About: I strive to provide the care and professionalism that I need and expect to be provided to my own pets. Dogs are wonderful creatures that deserve proper love and attention integrated into their family life. I have experience with successful training of my own dog's basic obedience skills (sit, stay, heel, eat, touch, shake, etc). Have taken care of many other dogs, reptiles, and fish for people in my life. I am especially interested in helping reactive dogs or dogs with behavioral issues. I work freelance so I set my own schedule for the most part. Completely flexible for clients needs. A few weeks of the year I'm booked for longer gigs but that is easily identifiable up front for potential clients. Care for clients is completely dependent on their needs and comforts. I will always defer to the client for what is needed for them and their environment. Open and honest communication is the foundation for care and comfortability.
About: I tailor my care to you and your pets, with the goal of providing the same love and structure they’re used to. I love to learn their routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel completely at home. I come from a nursing background, so I am comfortable providing medications and treatments. I have a special love for elderly animals! I also have significant farm experience, so if watching over your farm is also something you need, please reach out! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to focus on caring for your pets during our booking. I am happy to communicate my schedule specifics with you when we meet! My goal is to create a space where both pets and their owners can feel completely at ease. I maintain a calm, clean environment, and provide thoughtful attention and careful supervision.

“Emily and her family are amazing! They took such wonderful care of my two little puppies. I was nervous to leave them with new people because they are so young but they did such an amazing job with them and I'm so thankful for that! Emily kept contact, sent pictures, and was so good to them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to book a stay with a Rover sitter.”

“This is my second time using Sydney to dog sit my dogs and it was a wonderful experience again! I highly recommend Sydney to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter. My dogs were very excited to go to her house and they looked very relaxed in all the pictures I received. She also let me know about a probable anxiety issue with one of my dogs upon pick up. Sydney was flexible with drop off and pick up times.”

“We are so happy with the great care Amanda gave our Bella. We felt our vacation was better because Bella was getting such great care. Photo updates helped us to relax and know she was doing well. We will definitely have Amanda take care of her again!”

About: As a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. With a calm, reliable presence and a deep understanding of each pet’s unique needs, I’m committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where your furry family member can thrive. I currently have availability on occasional weekdays and weekends, depending on the day. I’m happy to be flexible and work around your schedule when possible! When walking dogs, I prioritize safety, exercise, and enjoyment. I tailor each walk to your pup’s energy level, age, and temperament—whether it’s a brisk stroll, a leisurely sniff-filled adventure, or some playful time outside. I always ensure your dog stays hydrated, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every walk as a chance to build trust and connection with your pet.
“I can't say enough good things! This was my first time doing Rover and they took the best care of my golden! He was spoiled with walks and even had a fort built for him. 100000% booking again.”

“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.”

“Amazing! Thomas took such great care of our Aggie! Sent us pictures and kept us updated while on our 4 day trip. We were worried as we never had her away but Thomas made sure to let us know how it was going, and make Aggie feel comfortable and at home. Aggie is a BIG girl too! But she had fun! Thank you again! See you next time :)”

“Ashley and her family were great caregivers for our pup, Murphy! Communication was excellent (loved getting photo updates during the stay), and Murphy seemed to have really enjoyed her time at their home.”

“Loved working with Ashley, she always kept me up to date on how my dogs were doing, she took the time to understand the needs of each of them personally. She had an amazing set up in her garage so each dog had their personally space. Wonderful fenced in yard for them to be safe while having a place to have fun. Definitely would book with Ashley again.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Growing up with dogs, I quickly became in tune with their needs and can form a bond quickly! I go above and beyond to make every dog I meet feel loved and welcomed. I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses. I’m currently home with my little boy for the summer so my availability is virtually wide open! I’ll be able to provide walks, pets, and so much more. I have an outdoor kennel with a nice house in it if needed. Otherwise, I can provide a crate inside in a calm environment. My 2 dogs are around to play with your dog as well! If you’re worried about my dogs and your dog getting along, I can separate them-no problem.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was in middle school. Since then, I've become a dog trainer and can provide care for a wide variety of dogs, including dogs with additional care needs. I'm an AKC evaluator and I spend my free time competing with my dogs in a variety of sports! I take special care and pride in the animals I care for. I have 3.5 acres for your pet to romp around throughout the day (while supervised of course). I work hybrid so I spend 50% of business days working from home. On the weekends, I don't have to go in-office. My entire life revolves around my dogs and adding your pet into our routine will be an easy transition! I have a 3.5 acre yard and 5 of my own dogs. I keep client dogs separate from my personal dogs and other client dogs unless discussed and agreed upon beforehand so you know your pup is safe. All of my dogs are friendly and play together easily.
