“Sheree is a dream and if you can book her, I highly recommend it. I try to use her every chance I get. She is so great with my Betty and Betty just loves her. She is flexible and so easy going and makes you and your fur baby feel like she is your BFF. Thanks Sheree.”
“Maria is great with my senior dog Henry. She made sure he was eating well and administered all his medications. She’s in a great location for boarding and is always pleasant to work with with. Thanks so much, Maria! ☺️”
“Eric and Martha were so sweet to our dog Pluto while we were gone for the weekend! They made him feel like part of the family- he loved getting plenty of cuddles, yard time, and even tagging along for a couple of errands. They treated him like he was one of their own! We loved meeting them and can’t wait till Pluto can have another vacation at their house. :)”
“This was our first time having Penny stay with Susan and Craig, and they were amazing! Our anxious dog settled right in with them. We will definitely have Penny stay with them the next time we go out of town!”
“Bobby had a great time with Nickolai and his family, and enjoyed their large backyard and playing with their resident dog. He was well taken care of and returned home tired out, couldn’t ask for more!”
“Wes was wonderful with our dog Zoey! Zoey is a senior dog and needs a bit of extra attention, and Wes and his family gave her just that! Received photos throughout her stay, would definitely recommend & use again in the future.”
About: My husband and I both work from home and are available for your pets 24/7. It’s so important to us that your dog and our own dog as well have the best quality of life, what that means to us is that they get love and attention whenever they want it, never spend long on a crate or by themselves, and get to go outside, on an adventure or play with us when they have extra energy to expend. Combined, my husband and I have over 30 years of dog experience. We work with all breeds and sizes. We know how important our fur babies are to us, so we want to put your mind and hearts at ease that your pupper will have the best time possible while they vacation with us! Working from home we both are available for your pet anytime they need it. I usually work on the couch or kitchen island while my dog and your dogs plays in the backyard, lounge on the couch/dog beds or play with the large variety of dog toys we have. We have a loving and sweet dog, Boon, that we take on hikes and dog park visits daily, with your permission and according to your preferences we could take your doggo on these adventures too. We carefully introduce your dog and our sweet boy, Boon. As a puppy, Boon was quite mischievous, so we learned quickly how to puppy/dog proof our home to avoid any issues. If we can handle Boon as a puppy, we can handle any dog. Now that he has gotten older and more mature, Boon is very amiable and loves to play and snuggle with our dog visitors. We crate Boon while we are out, and can follow any protocols you wish for caring for your fur baby when we are home and when we have to step out (a rare occurrence).
“Caitlin took wonderful care of Rey while we were away. She sent photos and videos every day, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how happy and comfortable Rey was. We are especially grateful for the love, attention, and care she gave Rey throughout the stay. Communication was excellent, and she was very understanding and flexible when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. I highly recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you so much for treating Rey like family!”
“Will had another great stay with Timmothy! We love the photo updates during our trip. We know Will is in good hands when he stays with Timmothy, thank you!”
“As a several times over repeat customer, I could not be more pleased with the care my dog gets from Colleen and Joe. I feel so comfortable leaving her with them, I can just fully focus on my trip. Many nice updates, great communication, friendly and kind people. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Renae and her family took great care of our dog! She was very communicative, gave our dog lots of love, and made sure to follow all our care needs. Her kids were great - they loved our dog and Renae made sure everything went smoothly with them. Will be rebooking with them next time we travel!”
“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”
“Amy gave our Angel all the love and cuddles she needed to get through her first time away from home. The daily pictures let us know that she was calm and happy. Amy focuses on each of her guests and gives them their special needs to keep them happy while with her. We are so fortunate to have found Amy for our first boarding experience! We will surely use her services 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!”
“Thank you so much for taking wonderful care of Theo while we were away in Mexico. Theo loves spending time with your family; he is so happy when we drop him off and pick him up! It gives us peace of mind when we are gone to know he is with a caring family. Thank you Ramanda ( + family). We appreciate all you do!!”

“We love having Kaitlyn take care of our cat when we travel! She always sends lots of pictures and notes about how our cat is doing which we absolutely love!! Having that peace of mind is so valuable and we can’t thank her enough!! Highly recommend 😊”
“Megan was great! Super communicative, knew all the right questions to ask, was flexible with scheduling drop ins with my cat, and sent tons of photos and detailed notes. Very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend to others and book again.”
“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.”
“Isabella stayed in our home for several nights recently to care for our cat. This was our first time having in-home cat care. Isabella was conscientious, professional, and kind. We appreciated her daily updates and photos of our cats. She let us know when there were any issues with our cat, asked appropriate questions, and kept our house in excellent condition. I would not hesitate to recommend Isabella for cat care, whether in-home or visits, and I'll definitely hope to book her again for our next trip.”
About: I had a cat for 17 years and he was my baby. Quirky and cuddly but also wild and strange. So I get cats. I've done foster work with cats and kittens as well
“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!”
“Anne did a great job taking care of my kitty while I was out of town! I really appreciated Anne’s thorough updates and the photos and videos she sent after each visit. They gave me peace of mind knowing my cat was doing well while I was away.”
“We were super happy with the drop in visits we scheduled. Londyn was super respectful of our space and gave lots of love to our kitties. Would definitely reschedule future visits.”
“Wow - Melanie was fantastic! She has a very calm vibe overall and after meeting her we knew our cats would be in good hands. She took great care of our cats and our home while we were away and sent daily update texts and pics that helped a lot for my husband's homesickness and missing them while we were away. We will definitely want to book with Melanie again in the future.”
“Amber did a great job taking care of our cat. She was punctual, reliable, and dependable, and she provided plenty of detailed updates and photos after each visit. My husband and I felt our cat enjoyed his visits with Amber. She was also very respectful of our home and left it the way we had left it.”
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.
About: With over 8 years of experience in animal care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, rats, and even lizards! I’m confident handling pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions who need a bit of extra TLC. I also have experience administering medications like pills, topical creams, and pet inhalers. I’m always happy to learn your pet’s unique routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I’m a student at the University of Minnesota and love spending my free time caring for animals. While my weekday schedule is limited due to classes and work, I’m fully available on Fridays and weekends and would be happy to dedicate that time to pet care. I look forward to meeting new pets and giving them the attention they deserve! Since I care for pets in their own homes, I always try to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I stick to their usual routine—whether that means walks, meals, playtime, or meds—whatever they need to feel at ease. I know how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, so I’m always respectful of your space and do my best to leave things just as I found them (or better!). I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured while you're away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and try to make the time you're gone as stress-free as possible for both of you.
“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!”
“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!”
About: My family has had cats since I was a baby. From calm and cuddly to feisty and fierce. From kitten to senior I’ve see it all. I can give meds if needed, clean the litter box, feed them when needed and maybe even give them a little treat if parents say it’s ok. I can also water flowers and get your mail if you need. I only work three days a week. It is different days every week but 5 days out of the week I am able to take care of your prized possessions. My cats get fed a certain amount twice daily. Litter box is always clean, and toys always out. I’ll even keep a box or two if it’s big enough (or until my husband throws it away).

“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! 😊”
“Cleo had a great time with Timmothy!! I loved his updates through the day and he asked many questions beforehand to make sure he understood how to care for her :)”
“We couldn’t be happier with how well-loved our sweet girl is every time she goes to Madilyn’s! She is clearly showered with snuggles and treats and love and has a great time getting to hang out with Mowgli and the kitties, too, as well as other friendly humans. We feel lucky to have such great care so close by. Thanks, Madi!”
“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”
“All I can say is wow! Fantastic communication, so many photos, and made sure my dogs were doing well and let me know. Every single thing I could’ve asked for. Emily is amazing! Very thoughtful about dogs and dog interaction and checked with me on absolutely everything. She is great and earned both my and my pups trust”
“Dillon provides exceptional care and attention to my Roman. You can tell Dillon is a natural at this and is very good at what he does because Roman is always really happy to spend time with Dillon!”
“Kira took our 8-month old Pomeranian for the day and provided many updates and photos. Otis looked very comfortable in her space and with her dog.”
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!
“We loved having Lindsey watch our dog, Maaya. She was very easy to communicate and coordinate with. She also shared lots of details and photos at the end of each day. Would highly recommend and have her watch Maaya again.”
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.
“I am so thankful we found Jessie! Our dog Cooper is not the easiest guy to take care of, he's not really a people person. Needless to say this makes finding a sitter very stressful. After describing him to Jessie she was still willing to take things slow and do a meet and greet and then a 1/2 day of daycare to see how it went. Next we'll try an overnight stay before committing to a multiple night stay when we go on vacation. I appreciate how patient and understanding she is with him and I'm hopeful we have found our new sitter! Thank you Jessie! (Harley and Ninja were great too :) )”
“I highly recommend Kristen and Robert to care for your beloved pet. I felt very comfortable leaving my Roy with them and their family of 3 other doggies. I felt they were very kind, friendly and caring. They sent me pictures and let me know how Roy was getting along. I will definitely contact Kristen and Robert again when I am need of someone to watch my precious little Roy. Thank you !”
“Kate agreed to a last minute booking and my pup had a wonderful day with her. She was proactive and checked with me ahead of time about his potty schedule and crating option.”
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 appreciate Howie and the care he provided my pup! He had a blast and smiled all night! I feel good leaving him with Howie and I know he will be cared for the way I would.”
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.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Golden Valley
Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs most of my life, that's Stella, my 16 year old grand dame best girl in the photo with me. CATS: I've sat for my friend's cats, my daughter's cats and enjoy getting to know and love, oh and respect each cat's unique personality. I've cared for other senior cats, given I.V.'s and meds and lovingly helped kittens adjust to their new homes and their hooman's schedules. DOGS: I adore dogs and they love me! Enough said! I can't wait to meet your cat(s) and care for them in your home! I’m retired, so I have lots of available time to care for your fur-babies! I will feed, play, and snuggle with your cat or dog once or twice a day in your home as you and your pet prefer! After I've met you and your cat(s) or dog(s), and we've planned out your pet's schedule, I will visit your home and put fresh water and food in your cats' or dogs bowls, once or twice a day, walk your dog or scoop the litter box and dispose the waste outside your home, and most importantly, love on your most precious friend and have playtime, either once or twice a day, depending on you and your pet's needs.
About: I’m a full-time pet caregiver with more than 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, fish, and other small pets. I’ve also been actively involved in animal rescue and fostering since 2021. One of my most meaningful experiences was fostering a blind and deaf senior Chihuahua with Cushing’s disease in hospice care for over a year. This strengthened my ability to provide patient, individualized care for senior, anxious, special-needs, and medically complex pets. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions and administering oral medications. My experience includes dog walking, drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight house sitting. I prioritize maintaining each pet’s normal routine while providing plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and companionship. You’ll receive thoughtful photos, detailed updates, and prompt communication throughout your pet’s care. Multi-pet families are especially welcome! My flat day rate includes all pets disclosed, listed on the Rover booking, and cared for at the same location—no additional pet rates. I provide full-time care but may step out briefly for prearranged dog walks or appointments, as discussed and agreed upon before booking. Feel free to message me with any questions! For added peace of mind, every service booked and paid for through Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes 24/7 support and up to $25,000 in veterinary care reimbursement for eligible claims. Pet care is my full-time work, so my daily schedule is organized around the pets in my care. I offer flexible availability throughout the day and week, including early mornings, late nights, weekends, and many holidays. This allows me to accommodate established routines, recurring services, and last-minute requests when availability permits. I plan travel time carefully between bookings and avoid overbooking so each pet receives their full scheduled time and attention. I begin each booking by reviewing the pet’s routine, behavior, triggers, health needs, and emergency information. I double-check doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes before transitions, keep dogs leashed outdoors unless safely contained in an approved area, and monitor the weather to ensure outdoor activities remain safe. I have experience with crates and crate training and am comfortable following an established crating routine when needed. I can also safely manage designated areas of the home using baby gates, closed doors, playpens, or other barriers according to the pet parent’s instructions. This can be helpful for maintaining boundaries, separating pets during meals, or providing each pet with a comfortable space. My goal is always to provide as much safe, supervised time outside confined areas as possible, with plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow all access and security instructions, maintain the pet’s familiar environment, and leave the home clean and securely locked. Meet-and-greets are welcome so we can review care instructions and ensure everyone feels comfortable before the booking.
“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'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.

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!
“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!”
“Jeff was fantastic with my pets. He made sure to tend to every detail and took my dog on long walks. My cat requires daily medication, and Jeff made sure to take care of her medical needs every day. He made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog and cat in his care. I will definitely reach out to Jeff again for my pet care needs!”
“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”

“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: 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: For over 5 years, I've been the go-to pet caretaker for many in my community. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, I've had the joy of caring for them all. My experience spans walking, feeding, bathing, and even some basic training. Every pet is unique, and I pride myself on recognizing and attending to each one's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs patience, energy, or a gentle touch, I'm here to provide it. Balancing a remote job gives me the flexibility and opportunity to dedicate substantial time to pet care. I’m fervent about ensuring our furry companions get ample play and attention. I am open for boarding on weekends, and my weekdays post 11am are entirely devoted to caring for pets. Rest assured, your pets will enjoy ample time of fun and care with me! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I've created a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and with plenty of play space. All pets have access to clean, comfortable resting spots and fresh water at all times. If I'm taking care of pets in your home, I'm respectful of your space and follow all guidelines provided. My goal is to ensure that whether I'm in your home or you entrust your pet in mine, they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Sheree is a dream and if you can book her, I highly recommend it. I try to use her every chance I get. She is so great with my Betty and Betty just loves her. She is flexible and so easy going and makes you and your fur baby feel like she is your BFF. Thanks Sheree.”
“Eric and Martha were so sweet to our dog Pluto while we were gone for the weekend! They made him feel like part of the family- he loved getting plenty of cuddles, yard time, and even tagging along for a couple of errands. They treated him like he was one of their own! We loved meeting them and can’t wait till Pluto can have another vacation at their house. :)”
“Bobby had a great time with Nickolai and his family, and enjoyed their large backyard and playing with their resident dog. He was well taken care of and returned home tired out, couldn’t ask for more!”
About: My husband and I both work from home and are available for your pets 24/7. It’s so important to us that your dog and our own dog as well have the best quality of life, what that means to us is that they get love and attention whenever they want it, never spend long on a crate or by themselves, and get to go outside, on an adventure or play with us when they have extra energy to expend. Combined, my husband and I have over 30 years of dog experience. We work with all breeds and sizes. We know how important our fur babies are to us, so we want to put your mind and hearts at ease that your pupper will have the best time possible while they vacation with us! Working from home we both are available for your pet anytime they need it. I usually work on the couch or kitchen island while my dog and your dogs plays in the backyard, lounge on the couch/dog beds or play with the large variety of dog toys we have. We have a loving and sweet dog, Boon, that we take on hikes and dog park visits daily, with your permission and according to your preferences we could take your doggo on these adventures too. We carefully introduce your dog and our sweet boy, Boon. As a puppy, Boon was quite mischievous, so we learned quickly how to puppy/dog proof our home to avoid any issues. If we can handle Boon as a puppy, we can handle any dog. Now that he has gotten older and more mature, Boon is very amiable and loves to play and snuggle with our dog visitors. We crate Boon while we are out, and can follow any protocols you wish for caring for your fur baby when we are home and when we have to step out (a rare occurrence).
“Caitlin took wonderful care of Rey while we were away. She sent photos and videos every day, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how happy and comfortable Rey was. We are especially grateful for the love, attention, and care she gave Rey throughout the stay. Communication was excellent, and she was very understanding and flexible when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. I highly recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you so much for treating Rey like family!”
“Will had another great stay with Timmothy! We love the photo updates during our trip. We know Will is in good hands when he stays with Timmothy, thank you!”
“Renae and her family took great care of our dog! She was very communicative, gave our dog lots of love, and made sure to follow all our care needs. Her kids were great - they loved our dog and Renae made sure everything went smoothly with them. Will be rebooking with them next time we travel!”
“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”
“Amy gave our Angel all the love and cuddles she needed to get through her first time away from home. The daily pictures let us know that she was calm and happy. Amy focuses on each of her guests and gives them their special needs to keep them happy while with her. We are so fortunate to have found Amy for our first boarding experience! We will surely use her services again!”
About: Our family has always loved dogs. We had two wonderful dogs who were part of our family for 15 and 18 years, and we’ve continued to enjoy caring for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs since then. We’ve learned that every dog has their own personality and routine, and we love getting to know each one. Our family loves including dogs in our everyday life! Between our schedules, there’s very little time when at least one of us isn’t home. We love bringing dogs along to sporting events, outings, and walks when they enjoy being on the go, but we’re just as happy spending a quiet afternoon at home snuggling with a pup on the couch. Your dog’s safety and well-being are our top priorities. We have a very large, fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run and play, plus friendly neighborhood dogs who love a playmate. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to help them feel right at home.
“Catherine and her husband took excellent care of our dog. Very communicative with pics, video and messages. Made us feel very relaxed with the care of one of our family.”
“Everything worked great with this family. I know if my dog could talk she definitely agree with me. I will certainly have you on my list for next time. Thanks a lot.”
“Newton had a great time with Aastha and Daniel! He can be shy around new people, but immediately was at ease with them and was at home in their large backyard. While we were away we got daily updates and pictures capturing his day. We are excited we found a reliable sitter who Newton clearly adores.”
“Jeff was a great dog watcher, communicator and helpful on staying in touch during my trip. I’d highly recommend his services for anyone that wants a trusted source.”
“Sarah and Paul are very nice and professional. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with them. I love their attentiveness to the needs of their pups and the routine they follow. Thank you, Sarah and Paul!”
“Mark and Lely were wonderful with Zulu! They sent up pictures and updates letting us know how much fun Zulu was having. We knew she was in good hands the whole time.”
“I was on a vacation for 2 weeks to overseas with my whole family (two 7 months old twin infants and my husband) and had to find a dependable sitter to care for my yorkie, Conan. We usually take Conan with us wherever we go, but it was not an option this time as our hands are full with our infant twins. Since Conan does not have much experience staying in other homes and other people, we were quite nervous if he is going to be fine during the two weeks. This was the longest time he was ever separated from us. He is also very shy with strangers and not very social. All these meant that we really needed to find a perfect sitter for Conan so he does not get stressed out during the two weeks. I searched Rover and found Terrie. Since Conan does not get along well with other dogs, we were looking a sitter not owning a pet. Another criteria that had to meet was a fenced yard. And the most important one, good reviews! All these limits directed me to Terrie. I can only say good things about Terrie. She was sending multiple pictures and video clips every day. Those pictures were showing how Conan was doing, not just a profile picture. I was so worried that he would be nervous and not get along with Terrie, but I was so wrong! He was playing with his toys just like he does at our home, he slept with Terrie in her bed, he got cuddled a lot, basically got all love he needed. He even got territorial and assumed every person come into Terrie's house is a intruder and got into a "guard dog" mode. He does that when only he feels home and comfortable. So I was very happy that he was having great time, get a daily walk, get attention, and lots of love. Conan stayed one night at Terrie's 1 wk prior to the long stay and I think it helped much him to get comfortable. Conan is not an easy dog to handle except for his tiny size. Despite his behavior problems, Terrie and her family were very patient with him and gave him lots of love. She is really a terrific dog sitter. I absolutely loved all pictures she sent. She is very reliable, dog loving, and nice person. If you are looking for a loving, kind, patient, dependable dog sitter for your four-legged furry baby, Terries is the one. For any future trips I will use her again!”
