“Dayjah was great. We had booked with a different Rover originally for the Thanksgiving weekend. Unfortunately, they were unable to dogsit for use at the last minute. Dayjah came to the rescue. She was very communicative, and sent daily updates and lots of pictures. Her home was perfect for Koda, with a big fenced yard for him to explore. Thanks again!”

He warmed up to them almost immediately during a short meet & greet, and from the the pictures during his stay, it was clear that he felt at home and was getting a lot of attention, play time & love during his stay. They’re also great communicators - they checked in with us, sent regular updates and responded quickly.”

“Mochi spent a full week with Carine and her family, and it went very well. Communication was excellent - Carine was attentive to all the details we shared and very responsive via text. We received updates throughout each day and during our trip, which we really appreciated. My kids loved seeing photos and updates of Mochi playing and cuddling with her kids. He was truly treated like one of their own, and it was clear how much he was loved, he will genuinely be missed by their family. Carine was also thoughtful about managing energy levels when another dog was staying at the same time and always checked in first. We felt completely comfortable leaving Mochi in her care and would absolutely use her again.”

About: Hello! I’m Ross. I’ve had pets my whole life, and dogs for the last several years! I’m an avid upland hunter and have two Labrador Retrievers, one that I hunt with and the other one failed bird dog school! Oh well, she’s a great family dog! I have ample experience handling dogs and have a unique understanding into their behavior having trained a hunting dog and working with him in the field. We are a family of 5 that love dogs and would love to give your family member a fun and relaxing stay in our home. I work from my home, running my own brand and design business, which gives me ample time to exercise and potty break your dog! My labs love to play and love all dogs, and are always looking for new friends! Let me know if we can accommodate you! I currently run my own business from my home, so I have ample time to accommodate your dog’s schedule with regular potty breaks and eating or medication times. I have 2 friendly Labrador Retrievers that love to play and get along with any and all friendly dogs! Our yard is not fenced, but if your dog is a risk for running or is skiddish we will use a leash at all times for walks and potty breaks.

About: I’m a proud cat mom to five fabulous felines, so I know just how particular (and amazing) cats can be. Whether your kitty is super social or prefers their space, I’ll meet them where they’re at—with patience, gentleness, and lots of love. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, meds (if needed), and of course, delivering top-tier chin scratches and cozy companionship. I treat every cat like they’re my own, because I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care.

Desiree was happy to stop over ahead of the trip to go over insulin and daily routines. I asked for photo updates and Desiree was happy to share!

About: I’ve lived with cats my entire life and truly understand their rhythms, quirks, and personalities. From outgoing, playful kittens to shy, sensitive adults, I’m comfortable meeting every cat exactly where they are. My soul kitty, Aida, taught me how deeply cats bond and how important it is to respect their space, routines, and communication. Because of her, I’m especially tuned in to subtle cat body language — the “soft signs” that tell you when they want affection, when they need space, or when something feels off. I’m experienced with: • Litter box care & multi-cat households • Slow introductions and trust-building for shy cats • Routine feeding (including picky eaters) • Play enrichment tailored to energy level • Senior cat needs • Oral and topical medications • Keeping cats comfortable while their humans are away I’m calm, patient, and quiet with cats — which often helps even the more cautious ones warm up quickly. Whether your cat wants snuggles, playtime, calm companionship, or a low-stimulus visit, I adjust to their comfort level and give them the kind of thoughtful, respectful care they deserve.

It was clear that she not only was very knowledgeable about about pet care, but even more important, she loved animals. Our dog did fantastic with Dayjah. Infact, he did not seem to want to leave when we picked him up. Dayjah has my highest recommendation in providing safe and loving care for your pet!”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own over the years and have raised them from puppies, so I’m very familiar with all stages of a dog’s life from training and high-energy puppy behavior to the needs of adult and senior dogs. I’ve also personally fostered two daschund dogs for several years while a friend went through a difficult transition, caring for them full-time until she was able to find pet-friendly housing. That experience really deepened my understanding of long-term, committed pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds from larger dogs like Boxers to small breeds like Boston Terriers, Dachshunds, and Yorkies. I truly love them all and adjust my care based on each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I focus on making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday, which gives me flexibility for walks, feedings, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. My availability is open, and I’m also available most weekends. At my home, I provide a safe, family-friendly environment where pets are cared for like part of the family. I have a 10-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, so I always ensure interactions are supervised and safe for both the pets and children. I follow each pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while staying in my home.

About: With 30 years of dog‑care experience, I’ve done it all—groomer’s apprentice, breeder house‑sitter, and professional treat‑dispenser. Your pup gets a work‑from‑home buddy, a fenced yard for maximum zoomies, and all the cuddles they can handle. Special needs? Meds? Extra attention? I’ve got it covered. Basically, your dog’s about to live their best life. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I work from home, so I’m able to give dogs consistent attention from morning to night. With 30 years of experience—including working as a groomer’s apprentice and house‑sitting for dog breeders—caring for pups is part of my everyday rhythm. I take regular breaks for potty trips, playtime, and zoomies in the fenced yard, and I offer both daycare and boarding, depending on what your pup needs. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a secure home environment, a safely enclosed yard for outdoor fun, and plenty of cozy indoor spaces for rest and snuggles. I’m experienced with medications, special‑needs care, and senior pups, and I treat every dog like my own—patient, calm, and attentive. You can trust that your pup will receive reliable, loving care and a true home‑away‑from‑home experience.

About: Hi! I’m Megan, and I’ve spent years working hands-on with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have a strong background in pet care, including working as a dog trainer for both group classes and private clients, as well as experience in dog daycare, boarding, and veterinary settings. I’ve cared for dogs in many environments and I’m comfortable handling everything from basic care to more behavior-focused needs. I have experience reading dog body language and helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve been extensively involved in rescue work as a foster home and running a shelter behavior group of volunteers so I’m especially patient with reactive, anxious, or higher-needs dogs. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and tailoring care to what works best for them. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care—just like I would for my own. I’m currently a stay at home mom and so I am able to be flexible in most cases. Evenings and weekends will be my most available times! I have two dogs of my own who are very used to new animals coming and going. I don’t have a fenced backyard, but do have tie outs or can leash walk any pets at my home. Every animal has different needs, so I will do my best to figure out what sleeping arrangements make them the most comfortable during their stay (I have kennels of every size so people do not need to bring theirs back and forth unless they prefer to). I’m well versed in methods of calming for pets that might be nervous. I do have a 6 month old infant at home who is very used to dogs, but any pets coming in to my home would need to be safe and comfortable around her.

About: My home with fenced in backyard is located on the Dakota Trail by Crystal Bay, Lake Mntka. I'm home full time and guarantee two 30-40 minute walks a day (if your pup is up for it, if not I will accommodate). I have been a dog lover my entire life! I have many years of experience from taking care of my own furbaby (Pug named Bagels!) to caring for others cherished pups. Your dog will love staying in my home! We spend time playing, relaxing & snuggling. Your dog will have an amazing stay with lots of love and care and is welcome all over my home. Your pup will enjoy my fenced in backyard and outdoor patio so when the weather is nice your pup can lounge in the sun. Your pup will always be on a leash when on walks and watched very closely. I generally board one dog at a time so that I can offer high quality care. Your pup will be spoiled with loving attention! Be prepared for lots of photos of your dog relaxing in my cozy home or getting fresh air on the trail! I look forward to meeting you and your furbaby. I enjoy caring for pups very much however I do require the following: Dogs must be current on shots, heartworm & flea & tick treatments. I generally care for one dog at a time but make exceptions for families with multiple dogs. I don't watch dogs with any history of aggression. Only house trained pups please. I’m home full-time so I’m flexible with my hours. Drop off and Pick up can be arranged to fit your schedule. No problem when changes occur with your travel at last minute. I do not require a cancellation or change fee because LIFE happens! Safety is one of my top priorities. I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly Pug for your dog to play with. Your dog will always be leashed when walking on the Dakota trail.

He got some love and exercise and a much welcomed break from his new little fur brother for the day. He is a fast eater, so still eats a lunch and that wasn't an issue at all for them. I know he would be happy to go back for a visit and some playtime with the kids anytime. Thanks for taking such great care of our big boy!”

About: I have fostered both dogs and cats in the past. From childhood to the present day, a home is not complete without some form of animal companion. I tend to be an early riser and am very flexible. Cleaning up after myself as well as your pets is my specialty. I enjoy camping and antiquing when there’s no critters to hang out with. I am familiar with many types of leash and collar. I prefer to keep a dog heeled on most of the walk, letting them run and play when it’s appropriate to do so. If you have a preferred method of control I’m happy to accommodate. I’m comfortable giving meds and have experience with all kinds of feeding. When sitting, I’d love to water your plants and get the mail-any little extras that you need. I often take my dad shopping or to doctor’s appointments, and set my own schedule with my other jobs. How long your pets can be left alone (if at all) is up to you! I’m great at following orders, especially written instructions; please tell me how you usually handle your pets so I can keep it consistent for them! I like to go for walks, and like it even more if I have company. I also always enjoy a good snuggle.

About: I’ve had everything from high-energy Vizslas and Weimaraners to squishy-faced English Bulldogs and now two tiny but mighty Yorkies—so I totally get the range of pet personalities! Add in my four cats and you’ll see I’m fully immersed in the pet life 24/7. I genuinely love being around animals—whether it’s playtime or snuggle time, I’m all in. Pet sitting isn’t just a gig for me—it’s an extension of the love I already have for my own furry crew. I currently work from home, which gives me a super flexible schedule for pet care. I’m happy to stop by before or after my workday—or even swing by for a quick lunch break visit! I also love getting outside, so if your pup’s into walks, that’s a win for both of us. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a potty break, or playtime, I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in their home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. That means sticking to their regular feeding schedule, walk times, and any special instructions you leave for me. I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether that’s extra playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping them company. I also keep things tidy and treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine.

About: Since I was a little girl, I've always held a love and care for animals. I cared for all, big and small. Always cared for critters growing up and started pet sitting when I was in Middle school. Over the years I have had experience with many types of animals and caring for many as pets, fosters, and pet sitting. I have cared for puppies, elderly pets that require medical care. I have fostered over 100 animals and pet sit for just as many. I have worked in a dog boarding establishment, and a pet store caring for reptiles, amphibians, and various small animals, and currently work on a farm part time caring for horses, cats, dogs, chickens. I have had dogs, cats, chinchillas, rabbits, sugar gliders, rabbits, tortoises, frogs, hedgehogs, hamsters, fish, shrimp, crayfish, birds, etc. in my care and am happy to provide excellent and quality care for any type of animal you need care for. I have 2 responsible older kids who love animals and we have a houseful of love and animals. We would love to spend time with your precious pets and I have the love, time, and resources to meet all their needs and adjust to their schedule. We believe in slow, positive intros, and a safe and happy environnent. I always keep dogs in my care in our new fenced yard or on a leash. Fence has technology to notify me if a gate has opened. I supervise during play time and separate animals during food times. Make sure they have everything they need, including medications, or extra cuddles, walks, etc. Work with animals using positive reinforcement and praise.

About: I have worked with dogs and cats doing on 6 years now, and have had the opportunity to be around a ton of personalities and care for many different energy levels. In this, I also have experience crate, house, and yard training! Though I’m currently at college, I have quite a few breaks during the day in which I could check in on any pets and make sure they are happy, heathy, fed, and don’t need to use the restroom. I have all nights and most weekends free, and have flexible hours during most of the week. While it certainly depends on the personality and age of the pet, general care would include meeting the basic needs (food, water, bathroom breaks, and running/walking time) while also being ready and able to play, facilitate enrichment times, and cuddle especially clingy pets.

This semester I am in class from 8am-1pm M/W/F, and 10:30am-12pm on T/Th. However, I make sure to find time on my lunch breaks and before and after class to make sure pets can get outside and get a little love in between the times I have to be away. I have been a pet owner for my entire life, and I am very akin to having a furry companion around! I take care to make sure that they are well loved, fed, and cleaned up after throughout my daily routine. I also love a good cuddle session with a cat or dog!

About: When it comes to animals, I love them all. I have extensive experience working with animals especially at a non profit no kill rescue that is unique giving everyone a chance no matter if they need high amounts of medical care. With that background, I'm comfortable caring for cats and dogs with medical needs, of all ages. I am most comfortable with small and medium dogs that are easy going and like going for walks! I work remote from home and have flexibility to adjust as needed for weekdays and weekends. I do need advance planning for anything more than a drop in. It's deeply personal to come into someone's home and care for their fur baby, I understand completely! Part of the planning process involves asking questions about your needs, preferences, expectations so we are in the same page!

About: Hello! My name is Tyler and I've been around animals my entire life. I am very comfortable with dogs and cats, including in my home, as we have a four-year old Frenchie, Odie, and two-year-old Boston Terrier, Marzipan. I am a work-from-home sports journalist who can leave the house, often at specific times, to meet your needs. I also have the flexibility to potentially stay at your home or be there during the day to interact with your animal, as I can work remotely as long as I have internet. I have been helping watch my friends' animals over the last 10-15 years, giving me plenty of experience to help with your animal and give them all the pets they want while I'm there! I am comfortable with doing things like giving medication, putting in a crate, take on walks, etc. Please feel free ot reach out if you have any questions! I am a work from home sports journalist with a very flexible schedule. I do have multiple YouTube shows I do each week where I would need to be in my office, but those are around 11 and 6 on both Mondays and Thursdays. I can do most of my work remotely, so I can sit for you by either hanging out during the day or possibly staying the night. I will treat your dogs like I do my own: with care, compassion, and a lot of love. I am a kind hearted soul myself, and often connect very well with dogs. Whether you need them to be walked, on strict rest, get lots of playtime, etc, I will gladly do that for your pup like I do for my own at home.

About: I have owned both cats and dogs in my life time, as well as pet sat for many friends and family over the years. I currently own a black American shorthair cat named Daisy :) I am a single mom who has my kids 50% of the time. When I have my kids, I cannot do overnights but I am open to dog walks, play dates, and feedings. When I do not have my kids I have more flexibility to be with your animal(s) for a longer period of time Given my townhome and the pet I own I currently cannot have animals stay with me. I care for all animals with the utmost gentleness and care. I am able to play with and walk dogs / cats

About: Hi! I’m Megan, and I’ve spent years working hands-on with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have a strong background in pet care, including working as a dog trainer for both group classes and private clients, as well as experience in dog daycare, boarding, and veterinary settings. I’ve cared for dogs in many environments and I’m comfortable handling everything from basic care to more behavior-focused needs. I have experience reading dog body language and helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve been extensively involved in rescue work as a foster home and running a shelter behavior group of volunteers so I’m especially patient with reactive, anxious, or higher-needs dogs. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and tailoring care to what works best for them. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care—just like I would for my own. I’m currently a stay at home mom and so I am able to be flexible in most cases. Evenings and weekends will be my most available times! I have two dogs of my own who are very used to new animals coming and going. I don’t have a fenced backyard, but do have tie outs or can leash walk any pets at my home. Every animal has different needs, so I will do my best to figure out what sleeping arrangements make them the most comfortable during their stay (I have kennels of every size so people do not need to bring theirs back and forth unless they prefer to). I’m well versed in methods of calming for pets that might be nervous. I do have a 6 month old infant at home who is very used to dogs, but any pets coming in to my home would need to be safe and comfortable around her.

“Dayjah was great. We had booked with a different Rover originally for the Thanksgiving weekend. Unfortunately, they were unable to dogsit for use at the last minute. Dayjah came to the rescue. She was very communicative, and sent daily updates and lots of pictures. Her home was perfect for Koda, with a big fenced yard for him to explore. Thanks again!”

“Frank, Clarissa and their family took wonderful care of our dog, Bentley. He warmed up to them almost immediately during a short meet & greet, and from the the pictures during his stay, it was clear that he felt at home and was getting a lot of attention, play time & love during his stay. They’re also great communicators - they checked in with us, sent regular updates and responded quickly.”

“Mochi spent a full week with Carine and her family, and it went very well. Communication was excellent - Carine was attentive to all the details we shared and very responsive via text. We received updates throughout each day and during our trip, which we really appreciated. My kids loved seeing photos and updates of Mochi playing and cuddling with her kids. He was truly treated like one of their own, and it was clear how much he was loved, he will genuinely be missed by their family. Carine was also thoughtful about managing energy levels when another dog was staying at the same time and always checked in first. We felt completely comfortable leaving Mochi in her care and would absolutely use her again.”

Any update or just a little picture to say hi, Brandi took care of my little baby. And if I ever go away again and have to leave him, I'm leaving him with no other. Thank you Brandi.”

About: Hello! I’m Ross. I’ve had pets my whole life, and dogs for the last several years! I’m an avid upland hunter and have two Labrador Retrievers, one that I hunt with and the other one failed bird dog school! Oh well, she’s a great family dog! I have ample experience handling dogs and have a unique understanding into their behavior having trained a hunting dog and working with him in the field. We are a family of 5 that love dogs and would love to give your family member a fun and relaxing stay in our home. I work from my home, running my own brand and design business, which gives me ample time to exercise and potty break your dog! My labs love to play and love all dogs, and are always looking for new friends! Let me know if we can accommodate you! I currently run my own business from my home, so I have ample time to accommodate your dog’s schedule with regular potty breaks and eating or medication times. I have 2 friendly Labrador Retrievers that love to play and get along with any and all friendly dogs! Our yard is not fenced, but if your dog is a risk for running or is skiddish we will use a leash at all times for walks and potty breaks.

She sent pictures and videos so we knew they were settled in and enjoying their time. It felt like my dogs were on vacation. Highly recommend Kay and family. We hope to book again.”

We really appreciated her flexibility in timing dropping him off and picking him up - we unexpectedly needed to extend our booking an extra night, and was happy to accommodate this last-minute. I recommend Brittany without reservation - we'll definitely be re-booking in the future!”

“Beyond all expectations. I had a family emergency and had to fly to a different state the day after receiving the news. I I had to find my best friend (who has never been away from me except a one night stay a year prior) a place to stay for 3 days. This was among last minute packing, getting multiple construction projects prepped for my absence, preparing hotel stays, etc. Regina made the most import thing in my life a stress free, calm and easy situation. I will be using her again for anything related to my dog “Thor”. She and her wonderful family I would recommend to anyone boarding their dog that wants peace, comfort and daily communication. Regina is the best hands down. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. *Every single day she would send a text and pics to let me know how my pup was doing.”
