“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Patti and Patrick. He was dealing with some health issues prior to his stay with them, and they were supportive with giving him his medication. Patti sent us fun text messages and photos everyday of our happy boy. He was well taken care of and loved in their care.”
“Buddy enjoyed his stay! Great fenced in yard to run and play with the other dogs. We appreciated getting pictures and updates while we were away. Buddy came home ready to nap after having so much fun! Will definitely stay again. Thank you! Carrie & Dan”
“An absolutely amazing experience ! First time ever using Anna and Rover.com for my 9mo. Golden Retriever Trump! We had lots of communication and pictures daily! I’m so happy I chose her and will definitely book with Anna again!”
“Wow!! We had a boarding set up with another Rover family but unfortunately - it was not going to be a good fit. I quickly messaged Princesa - as this was the day we were to leave for the long memorial weekend - and she responded almost instantly! They were Incredibly flexible offering to meet for public pick up on our way out of town or bring her to their home based on our needs. Our pup had an AMAZING time and we were updated with pictures and texts daily. We were able to enjoy our holiday weekend with our minds at ease knowing our pup was well taken care of!!!! Thank you so much!!!! This was our first time using Rover and will definitely be boarding with them in the future!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“We had an excellent experience with Cait and Tim! Our pup didn’t have good manners when meeting their family dog but they didn’t seem to be worried. He eventually settled in and he had a great time for his overnight. He was so tired the following day from all the activity at their house. We’d never used a service like this before. We would recommend them 100%!”
“My two miniature schnauzers had the most wonderful time at Tammy & John’s home away from home. They were cared for so well, felt kindness and that feeling of safety you want your pet to feel while you’re away. Tammy sent many pictures so I knew my dogs were doing well and having a fantastic experience in their home. I would highly recommend!! Thank you so much for caring for Ice and Minnie! They will definitely be back.”
“Rosie was very happy at Kyle’s. We saw some sweet photos of her during her stay. We appreciated your flexibility in picking her up too. Thanks much. We will definitely request to rebook with Kyle.”
“Julie took wonderful care of our puppy and kept him busy. She went above and beyond, giving him delicious and nutritious dog-friendly treats, and even went out and got him a new collar when the buckle on his old one broke. She was very responsive and sent great photos/updates. Thanks, Julie!”
“This was my first ever experience leaving my dog with someone I wasnt familiar with. Michelle was perfect. I never had a second of worry and it was fantastic seeing so many photos of my dog being so happy and having a great time. 100% will be back when we have another trip. The rating is only 5 stars but shes a 10 star person 100%”
“So glad we found such a great family to care for our 2 year old cockapoo, Brody! We were nervous because we had never left our dog overnight with anyone, but from the first meet and greet, to his "practice" day, thru his 4+ day stay, we felt totally comfortable, got great updates and pictures, and Brody was obviously well cared for and happy! We will definitely use again!”
“Jenell was awesome! She took great care of our Marian while we were away for a few days. She sent updates with pictures, which put my mind at ease and I knew that Marian was in great hands. Highly recommend and will be contacting her again when we need a sitter.”
“McKayla and Dillon are Star Sitters for a reason: They really care for their guests. They saw our Ozzy did not like their wood floors, so they provided rugs and towels for him to move around on! They are attentive not only to the apparent needs of their house guests, but also make them feel at home by keeping close to home schedules, providing lots of active time/walks, and include important, quiet, "family" time. They are great "pack" leaders! We couldn't be more pleased with the love and care Ozzy received, as well as the accommodations they made to help us with our travel plans. Thanks!”
“I could tell Paxlee had an amazing time and was well loved. Pictures and warm notes from Katie helped make out long vacation away much easier. Thank you for loving our senior pup! ❤️”
“Harley had a great time with Amy while I was on a work trip. Amy was excellent with communication and quick as well! She sent pictures and videos everyday that he was there. Highly recommend!!”
“Luke and Rachel took great care of Tychus and Arya was great host as well. 100% recommend them. In particular I appreciated their practiced care at introducing dogs to each other and ability to manage play time!”
“I was very comfortable with Danielle and Chad. My dogs were well cared for, I didn't have a moment of concern. It was the first time leaving Lola, they were patient with her although she was rather skittish. I highly recommend them if you need care for your dogs.”
“Lauren and James did such an amazing job with our dog while we were out of town for a week. They sent awesome updates every day and such cute pictures. Winston felt right at home with them and they loved him like their own. He probably had more fun with them than he does at home! He came back fulfilled and happy. We will absolutely work with Lauren and James again when we have a trip come up.”

“Alivia is the best!! She was so easy to communicate with before booking and during the stay. Our cat who isn’t the biggest fan of strangers warmed right up to Alivia and we loved the pictures she sent everyday! She was responsible, kind and really felt our pet and home were in great care with her. She even went above and beyond in checking mail, doing a door locked check for us, packages, plants and juggling a contractor we had doing work at our home while we were gone. We quickly rebooked her for our next trip. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Thanks so much to Jeff for checking in on our cats! Everything went smoothly, communication was great, cats were taken care of and happy. We appreciated the daily update notes and pictures. I’d definitely recommend Jeff for animal check in visits.”

About: I’ve cared for several cats over the years and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. Whether they’re playful and social or more independent, I’m happy to provide patient, attentive care while you’re away. I’ll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of affection (if they want it!), and a calm, safe environment so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.
About: I have a cat named Luna, and she was the first pet I’ve ever had completely on my own. She quickly turned me into a total cat person! Caring for her has taught me how important it is to provide not only food, water, and a clean litter box, but also daily playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. Luna is truly my pride and joy, and I’ll care for your cat with the same patience, love, and attention that I give her every day.
About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional experience and a lifetime of hands-on pet care. I spent over three years working in a dog daycare and boarding facility, caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I also worked as a pet store manager, which gave me valuable experience with animal behavior, care, and overall pet wellness. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra attention, I provide patient, personalized care tailored to them. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home most days, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. I only go into the office one day per week, so I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most pets’ routines and needs. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and quality one-on-one attention into my day. Whether your pet prefers an active day or a quiet companion nearby, I can provide a comfortable and consistent environment while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any other specific care requests. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and mental stimulation based on their individual needs and personality. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, so I treat every home with the same respect and care I would my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Leann was absolutely perfect. She checked in with us every day & sent plenty of cute pictures! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet & dependable cat sitter. Thanks Leann!”
“Lauren was wonderful with our big guy Max. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures of him enjoying the deck outside. She brushed him and made sure he got lots of attention while we were gone. It truly made our vacation much more enjoyable knowing she would be stopping by to spend time with him. I would highly recommend Lauren.”
“Jackie did a great Job doing daily drop in care for our elderly cat. She was friendly and understanding about his routine,, that has become higher maintenance now that he is older. We enjoyed Her daily photos of our old man! It helped us feel more relaxed about being away. Grateful for Jackie’s care and would recommend her to others.”
“Gavin took great care of our dog, Luna, and my brother’s dog, Ike, over the holiday weekend. He was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and would gladly book with Gavin again. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Grace is an amazing pet sitter. She has a calm, go-with-the-flow energy and was really great with my cats. I was anxious about leaving them, as this was my first trip since they both started medication. Grace provided me with a lot of reassurance and sent me pictures and updates of my cats throughout my trip. I will 100% be booking with Grace again.”
“Tiffany was attentive, reliable, and took great care of my cat while I was away. Their help was truly appreciated and gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in good hands. Highly recommended!”
“Brenna was amazing in every respect! I felt comfortable trusting her with our cat right from the start, especially because she’s a cat owner herself and asked such thoughtful, specific questions about our pet’s care. Communication was super easy and smooth, which was so important since I was traveling in another country with a big time difference and limited chances to check in or give extra directions. She didn’t disappoint at all! Even when I asked for some extra favors during her sequential visits, Brenna was incredibly understanding and always prioritized caring for our cat. I couldn’t have asked for better care while we were away. Highly recommend!”
About: I had my first dog when I was 7 years old, I was helping my dad to train my dog. I was responsible for his walks, food, etc. After my first dog experience, I’ve decided that animals make me so happy. I had 8-10 senior/young dogs that I took care of. I also had four cats that I was taking care of. Some birds, fish, turtles, horses… I genuinely love spending time with animals I am currently in college full time, we can always schedule a week ahead to make sure if I have enough time for your dog! Unfortunately I won’t be able to take your dog to my house for nights but I can take them during the day. I have fenced backyard that your animals can have their own space and have fun!

“Brianna has been such a huge blessing for our family and for our pup, Vince. He absolutely loves going to her house – her kids are so sweet with him and he’s become part of the little pack with her dogs. You can tell she really understands dogs and manages the energy in her home so everyone feels safe and included. I always feel confident dropping him off because I know he’s supervised, loved on, and genuinely having fun. We’re really thankful to have found someone we can trust with our boy during long work days and trips. Highly recommend Brianna if you want your dog to have a second home.”
About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for many years. I currently own an 8-year-old Siberian Husky named Storm, so I have extensive experience caring for large, energetic dogs and understanding their exercise needs. We have a large, fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My family provides a loving, structured home environment, and dogs receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We also have two young children, so we only accept dogs that are friendly, gentle, and comfortable around kids. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine. I am a stay-at-home mom to two children, so I am home throughout the day and able to provide attention, care, and supervision for pets. Each day, we go on at least one longer walk with our dog, in addition to shorter potty breaks and outdoor time as needed. These walks are a regular part of our schedule and help ensure our 8-year-old Siberian Husky gets the exercise and stimulation he needs. We also spend time in our large fenced-in backyard, which gives additional safe space for activity and play. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to be flexible and responsive to a dog’s needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks, attention, or adjusting activity based on energy level or weather. Overall, pet care fits very naturally into our household rhythm and is already an important part of our daily family routine. We start the day with feeding, potty breaks, and a walk, and we typically do at least one longer walk each day to make sure our dog gets enough exercise and mental stimulation. Since we have an 8-year-old Siberian Husky, we’re very familiar with meeting the needs of high-energy dogs and making sure they stay active and engaged. Throughout the day, pets are part of our home environment. Because I am a stay-at-home mom to two young children, I’m home and available to provide regular supervision, attention, and outdoor breaks as needed. We also have a large fenced-in backyard, which allows for safe outdoor play and extra exercise time. In the evenings, we maintain a calm routine with another potty break, feeding, and time spent relaxing together as a family. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, well-exercised, and integrated into a structured but flexible household where they are treated like part of the family.
“Anna is fabulous! We have a new puppy and she has watched him all week for us while we are at work! She makes sure he gets playtime with her dogs and naps in too! She sends lots of updates and pictures throughout the day, which we love! She has done great with helping his potty training and keeping us informed with his rover card each day!”
“Ellen’s wonderful my puppy got to meet her daughter,son,and their dog ❤️🐾. She took really great care of my puppy Vince for the day. I highly recommend her. I had a wonderful first day of work knowing that my puppy was in the best care for the day.”
“We have used Julie many times and are always hugely satisfied with her care of Echo. Echo got great play time with other dogs and good exercise out on the lake with Julie. Thanks for taking the time, Julie, to make Echo's day away fun and tiring! We were happy to get a tired doggy back home.”
“Julie is absolutely wonderful! She genuinely cares about your fur baby like they are her own. We got updates, pictures and even a video throughout the day of how Oliver was doing. We’ll definitely be rebooking with Julie again in the future! She’s an 11 out of 10!”
“Another fun daycare day for my puppy at Michelle’s. After playing with the other puppy’s and running the acreage he is all tuckered out. Thank you Michelle!!”
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for dogs. I have cared for my own dogs and others ranging from puppies to senior dogs, since I was a teenager. I work from home full time so your pet will always have someone around to hang out or play with. They will have plenty of attention from me and my sweet kiddos who will love on your furry friend as if it were their own. I have a senior beagle who will quickly become your fur babies best friend. He is super chill and sleeps most of the day away. I also have two kiddos who love to play with pups and take them for walks. Your pet will be leashed when going outside but will have plenty of space to move about.
“My dog had a fantastic day. He went on two walks, played with kids, met the neighbors and watched part of the day roll by on the porch. And when I picked him up, he absolutely crashed in the back seat. Paige and family are awesome!! Can’t wait to go back.”
“Shelly was awesome. She was flexible when I had to change my dates. There was plenty of open space and other animals for Bear to play with. Shelly also was helping with our potty training since Bear is only three months old. I will use her again.”
“Luke & Aria (your sweet Doberman) thanks for providing a great afternoon for GiGi! I appreciate that they could play so well together in your fenced yard, that she had a lot of water and potty breaks and that you gave very good supervision. It was so nice to hear that you would love to take care of her again, to read your nice comments and that you provided cuddle time. You live in such a convenient location near a highway exit and other Rover clients could get a lot of errands done close to your home. We will call again.”
“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”
About: I have raised dogs from pups to adults and have enjoyed them in the house all of my life. I have recently lost my last dog two weeks ago after having him for over 13 years as a rescue. The house is just too lonely and will enjoy having company again in a form of 4 legged Even though we don't have an complete enclosed yard we can provide security with dogs on a lease and always safely under our watchful supervision. We also will take 2 dogs at a time if they are from the same family. We have enclosed a section where the dogs can be outside with us . We are home all day to take care of your pet. So your pet will have our attention all day and evening to play and just have fun days with us. And of course, be spoiled with treats. & Love. We enclosed a fenced in area at our home for the dogs to go out in along with us so one of us will always be out there with the dog.we also will take 2 dogs if they are from the same family.
About: My husband and I have both grown up with pets and have continued caring for animals throughout our adult lives. We have extensive hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, and we currently care for a variety of animals in our home, including fish, a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko, a hamster, and hermit crabs. This has given us a strong understanding of different care needs, routines, and behaviors across species. We’re attentive, patient, and comfortable following specific instructions — whether that’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, or helping pets feel calm and safe in a new environment. We truly treat every pet as if they were our own. Because we work from home, pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. We’re around throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship, not just quick check-ins. Our flexible schedule allows us to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means extra cuddles, medication reminders, or keeping a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We care for pets as if they are part of our own family. In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play safely. We live on 10 acres, which allows for supervised outdoor time, walks, and fresh air, and we also have a large outdoor kennel available when appropriate for a pet’s comfort and safety. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we focus on consistency, attentiveness, and respect for each pet’s routine. We follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special requests closely. We make it a priority to be responsive, communicative, and attentive so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.
“Russell and Linda took our dog on short notice. They were a big help. They have a lovely fenced yard and safe protocols in place. He was happy and safe when we picked him up.”
About: Hi, I’m Autumn! While I’m new to Rover, I am not new to dogs! Animals have been a huge part of my entire life! At 16, I started working as a kennel assistant at a veterinary clinic. I went on to receive my degree in veterinary technology and dedicated almost 10 years as a tech. Now, I’d love to continue caring for pets beyond the clinic! My husband and I own a 1/2 acre of acre of land in Forest Lake. We have one dog, a senior Shih Tzu named Nala! For the safety of all dogs, I do require they are comfortable being kenneled during times I am away or sleeping. Otherwise, they are free to follow me around the house or even nap on the couch! Caring for animals is my top priority, so I have the flexibility to be home with all pets for the majority of the day, every day! In our home, pets are family! We offer a large lawn to allow your pets plenty of room to exercise. Plenty of snuggles and playtime will be offered along with daily walks as requested/weather permitting. Crating is utilized for safety when pets are not directly supervised (home alone or bedtime). Any other needs? No problem! I know each and every pet has their own unique preferences and needs.
“Annie had another great day at Em and Arlo’s. Annie was a bit nervous today, but Emily, Arlo and Flynn made her feel right at home. She loves exploring and the wonderful shady spots to rest.”
About: I’m blessed to be able to work from home to provide your pup the attention they need. Your pup will have two daily walks, playtime in the fenced backyard, a box of indoor toys with two dog beds and a kennel bed to choose from. My pup Gus recently passed so, I’m looking to share my love, cuddles, energy and basically spoil your pup. I used Roover for my pup so I know how important receiving multiple daily photos and videos are so you know your pet is safe and having fun. If your pet requires, I offer baths, brushing, trimming, administering medications, and hygiene needs. I was particular with my pups care and I can do the same for you, consistently is important to you and your pup. I’m excited to provide care to your pup’s needs until you return home. Since I work from home, it’s easy to provide the personalized care your pet needs. I’m willing to customize my schedule for your pet needs. Your pets safety is my priority. I provide leashed walks, and/or play time in the backyard. I’m able to customize a plan that best fits your dog’s needs.

“Gavin did a SUPER job with our 2-1/2 year old red lab, Ruby! Gavin obviously loves dogs, and Ruby took a shining to Gavin. Gavin always arrived promptly and sent us great photos of Ruby on her walks! We definitely plan on asking Gavin to walk Ruby in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Elizabeth — a full-time, work-from-home dog mom living in a beautiful, wooded setting with trails right outside our door. Dogs in my care enjoy fresh air, frequent walks, and a calm, loving home environment. I’m outside with the pups multiple times a day — whether it’s structured exercise, supervised playtime, or a slow sniff-and-stroll for our senior friends. We have a sweet, social 2-year-old Standard Poodle who gets along with everyone — from rambunctious puppies to mellow old souls. My husband also works from home, which means your dog will never be left alone and always has an extra set of hands. I have experience with all ages and stages — from crate training curious puppies to providing gentle support for older dogs and administering medications (oral and topical). I follow feeding and care routines to the letter, and I’m always happy to provide updates, pics, or videos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and loved. Whether you’re planning a vacation or just need a reliable day-to-day helping hand, I treat every dog like one of my own — with patience, play, and a whole lot of love. I work from home full-time, so I’m with the dogs all day — not just “checking in,” but truly present. We go on multiple walks each day, explore nearby trails, and take plenty of breaks for play, snuggles, and outside time. My own dog thrives with this routine, and I love extending that same level of care to the pets I host. Whether it’s managing medications, reinforcing training, or simply being a calm, consistent presence, pet care is a natural and joyful part of my everyday life. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a calm, structured, and loving environment with plenty of time outdoors I follow your pet’s routines closely: feeding schedules, meds, crate time, and any house rules you use at home. Dogs are never left alone for more than a few hours (both my husband and I work from home), and we keep a close eye on how everyone’s adjusting — especially first-timers, puppies, or older pets who need extra support.

About: I have taken care of lots of different types of animals my entire life! From my childhood Guinea pigs, my family’s dog, relatives cats/dogs, and finally to my own personal 3 cats that I have, I feel that I am well versed in taking care of all different types of animals, personalities, and temperaments. My family’s dog is slightly reactive and has moderate anxiety, and I have lots of experience caring for and navigating that. I also have a bit of a finicky cat who gets extremely anxious in new situations. I feel that I understand how new environments, people, and routines can affect our pets. I love all dogs and cats and treat my own cats as if they are my children, and I promise to do the same for you! I am quite flexible and can make many different times work! So please reach out and I can try to work with your own busy life and routines. I personally have cats and live in an apartment with my husband.

I’m hoping in the future to be able to board more animals. I am comfortable doing just about anything in your home and am fully capable and ready to deal with anything unforeseen that may arise. I’m able to crate dogs if necessary, tend to any accidents that may have happened, take dogs on walks, clean litter boxes, etc. I will treat your home like it is my own!

“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Patti and Patrick. He was dealing with some health issues prior to his stay with them, and they were supportive with giving him his medication. Patti sent us fun text messages and photos everyday of our happy boy. He was well taken care of and loved in their care.”
“Buddy enjoyed his stay! Great fenced in yard to run and play with the other dogs. We appreciated getting pictures and updates while we were away. Buddy came home ready to nap after having so much fun! Will definitely stay again. Thank you! Carrie & Dan”
“Wow!! We had a boarding set up with another Rover family but unfortunately - it was not going to be a good fit. I quickly messaged Princesa - as this was the day we were to leave for the long memorial weekend - and she responded almost instantly! They were Incredibly flexible offering to meet for public pick up on our way out of town or bring her to their home based on our needs. Our pup had an AMAZING time and we were updated with pictures and texts daily. We were able to enjoy our holiday weekend with our minds at ease knowing our pup was well taken care of!!!! Thank you so much!!!! This was our first time using Rover and will definitely be boarding with them in the future!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“We had an excellent experience with Cait and Tim! Our pup didn’t have good manners when meeting their family dog but they didn’t seem to be worried. He eventually settled in and he had a great time for his overnight. He was so tired the following day from all the activity at their house. We’d never used a service like this before. We would recommend them 100%!”
“My two miniature schnauzers had the most wonderful time at Tammy & John’s home away from home. They were cared for so well, felt kindness and that feeling of safety you want your pet to feel while you’re away. Tammy sent many pictures so I knew my dogs were doing well and having a fantastic experience in their home. I would highly recommend!! Thank you so much for caring for Ice and Minnie! They will definitely be back.”
“Rosie was very happy at Kyle’s. We saw some sweet photos of her during her stay. We appreciated your flexibility in picking her up too. Thanks much. We will definitely request to rebook with Kyle.”
“Julie took wonderful care of our puppy and kept him busy. She went above and beyond, giving him delicious and nutritious dog-friendly treats, and even went out and got him a new collar when the buckle on his old one broke. She was very responsive and sent great photos/updates. Thanks, Julie!”
“This was my first ever experience leaving my dog with someone I wasnt familiar with. Michelle was perfect. I never had a second of worry and it was fantastic seeing so many photos of my dog being so happy and having a great time. 100% will be back when we have another trip. The rating is only 5 stars but shes a 10 star person 100%”
“So glad we found such a great family to care for our 2 year old cockapoo, Brody! We were nervous because we had never left our dog overnight with anyone, but from the first meet and greet, to his "practice" day, thru his 4+ day stay, we felt totally comfortable, got great updates and pictures, and Brody was obviously well cared for and happy! We will definitely use again!”
“McKayla and Dillon are Star Sitters for a reason: They really care for their guests. They saw our Ozzy did not like their wood floors, so they provided rugs and towels for him to move around on! They are attentive not only to the apparent needs of their house guests, but also make them feel at home by keeping close to home schedules, providing lots of active time/walks, and include important, quiet, "family" time. They are great "pack" leaders! We couldn't be more pleased with the love and care Ozzy received, as well as the accommodations they made to help us with our travel plans. Thanks!”
“I could tell Paxlee had an amazing time and was well loved. Pictures and warm notes from Katie helped make out long vacation away much easier. Thank you for loving our senior pup! ❤️”
“Harley had a great time with Amy while I was on a work trip. Amy was excellent with communication and quick as well! She sent pictures and videos everyday that he was there. Highly recommend!!”
“Luke and Rachel took great care of Tychus and Arya was great host as well. 100% recommend them. In particular I appreciated their practiced care at introducing dogs to each other and ability to manage play time!”
“I was very comfortable with Danielle and Chad. My dogs were well cared for, I didn't have a moment of concern. It was the first time leaving Lola, they were patient with her although she was rather skittish. I highly recommend them if you need care for your dogs.”
“Dave was absolutely great with our dog and fabulous to work with! When we picked her up, we could tell she was in good hands and she really liked him. We will definitely book with Dave again!”
“This was the first time we had the pleasure of working with Monika and family and all I can say is we would 100% use them again! They were so kind and caring and our golden retriever, Willow, had an amazing time there. I got plenty of pictures of her having fun with their other dogs, as well as snuggling with the humans in the household. They were amazing to work with and flexible when our travel plans changed slightly. I would highly recommend booking with this family!”
About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for many years. I currently own an 8-year-old Siberian Husky named Storm, so I have extensive experience caring for large, energetic dogs and understanding their exercise needs. We have a large, fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My family provides a loving, structured home environment, and dogs receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We also have two young children, so we only accept dogs that are friendly, gentle, and comfortable around kids. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine. I am a stay-at-home mom to two children, so I am home throughout the day and able to provide attention, care, and supervision for pets. Each day, we go on at least one longer walk with our dog, in addition to shorter potty breaks and outdoor time as needed. These walks are a regular part of our schedule and help ensure our 8-year-old Siberian Husky gets the exercise and stimulation he needs. We also spend time in our large fenced-in backyard, which gives additional safe space for activity and play. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to be flexible and responsive to a dog’s needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks, attention, or adjusting activity based on energy level or weather. Overall, pet care fits very naturally into our household rhythm and is already an important part of our daily family routine. We start the day with feeding, potty breaks, and a walk, and we typically do at least one longer walk each day to make sure our dog gets enough exercise and mental stimulation. Since we have an 8-year-old Siberian Husky, we’re very familiar with meeting the needs of high-energy dogs and making sure they stay active and engaged. Throughout the day, pets are part of our home environment. Because I am a stay-at-home mom to two young children, I’m home and available to provide regular supervision, attention, and outdoor breaks as needed. We also have a large fenced-in backyard, which allows for safe outdoor play and extra exercise time. In the evenings, we maintain a calm routine with another potty break, feeding, and time spent relaxing together as a family. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, well-exercised, and integrated into a structured but flexible household where they are treated like part of the family.
