Highly-rated overnight sitters - Cave
“Leanne and family were great. My dog had a wonderful time and was well taken care of. Leanne sent me updates and photos each day. My dog has a fitness tracker and I’ve never seen her get so many steps! She loved their yard and slept with Leanne’s son every night.”
“Mara was great with watching our dog Jax and was even able to take him over the holiday vacation for us. She was communicative, nice and accommodating. Jax had a great time and was well taken care of while we were away!”
“Lydia was OUTSTANDING! She treated our kitties 😸 Lilo and Finny as her own. Great to work with. I would not hesitate to book her. An amazing and caring person. Thank you for the love you showed our pets.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Evan and his fiancée! They were very attentive, flexible, and easy to communicate with. They cared for our pups like they were their own and kept us updated with regular pictures and messages, which we really appreciated. Our dogs looked so happy and comfortable the entire time — they especially loved spending time with their sweet dog Chloe! We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“My three chihuahuas has been with Tara now for 1 year total of two times and this visit was wonderful as well! Tara is so sweet, attentive and thoughtful throughout my babies stay. Highly recommend Tara as your sitter, great grounds too!”
“Cameron is truly a dog whisperer! My pup Louie and I are from Georgia and were completely unfamiliar with the area, but finding Cameron was a blessing! I’ve trusted him to watch my 5-year-old twice now, and I honestly don’t think I could find a more reliable and knowledgeable sitter. Cameron isn’t just a sitter—he’s a trainer too! He’s worked with Louie and me both at his home and at the park, helping address Louie’s past aggression with strangers. The progress has been incredible—our daily walks have become so much easier and more enjoyable! Louie also has severe allergies, and I was initially worried about flare-ups and hives while I was away. But thanks to Cameron’s careful attention and experience, Louie hasn’t had a single issue. I’m beyond grateful for the care and dedication Cameron has shown. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy—especially for your first time—you cannot go wrong with him. You have my word”
“Pepper was well cared for and Katie was super patient with his reclusive behavior in a new environment. Very communicative throughout the whole stay. Would definitely book again!”
About: Former vet office employee turned SAHM looking for pets to love on from my home. Excited to give quality attention to every pet in my care. I’m a stay at home mom to one kiddo so we are home most days/ evenings to play in the yard, go on walks, or just snuggle on the couch. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play with our 3 year old poodle, Frankie. We will do everything we can to make every pet feel safe and comfortable.
“Alicia and her family welcomed our dog with open arms. She sent us regular updates with pictures and videos. Cora enjoyed her stay and we are so grateful for a place for her to go when we need to leave town!”
“Rayna and Zach are awesome! They took care of Reba on a holiday weekend and accepted an extra night last minute when plans changed. My pup was so happy and relaxed when she got home from playing with their dogs all weekend! I’ll definitely book them again!”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for pets of all kinds. Whether your dog loves walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or simply curling up with someone while you're away, I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while keeping their normal routine as much as possible. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. I'll treat your pets like they're part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away so you can have peace of mind. If your family includes backyard chickens, I'm happy to care for them too! I'll make sure they're fed, watered, and well looked after, and collect the eggs. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I build my schedule around providing dependable care for pets. I'm most available for long weekends, holiday travel, and short trips, making it easy for families to get away knowing their pets are in good hands. When my schedule allows, I'm also happy to consider longer stays. I always communicate my availability in advance so you can plan with confidence and know your pets will receive the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In our home, pets become part of the family. We have a large, securely fenced yard, a pond, and plenty of space for walks, play, and exploring. Your dog will enjoy spending time with our family just like our own furry companions do. I'm happy to follow your pet's regular routine, accommodate special needs, administer medications if needed, and provide the familiar care that helps them feel at home. When caring for pets in your home, I know that keeping their routine as normal as possible helps reduce stress while you're away. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and bedtime routines, while making sure your pet receives plenty of love and attention. Pets have a funny way of letting us know if we've forgotten part of their routine, and I'm always happy to listen! My goal is for you to return home to a happy, relaxed pet who has been cared for as if they were my own.
“Yingfie watched our two corgis for an extended amount of time and was awesome! She gave lots of updates and sent lots of pictures. The pups looked like they were having a great time. Would definitely book with Yingfei again!”
“This is our second time using Madhu. We cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Marguerite and her family for our dog-sitting needs. Our dogs are like our babies, and finding someone who treats them with the same love and care that we do is priceless. Mahda and her family are incredibly caring and sweet, treating our pups like part of their own family. From the very first time we left our dogs with them, we knew they were in the best hands. They always keep us updated with photos and messages, so we never have to worry about how our fur babies are doing. The level of trust we have in them is immense, and it brings us such peace of mind knowing our dogs are happy and well-cared for when we're away. Madhu's home is truly a second home for our dogs, and we couldn't be happier with the care they receive. We will continue to rely on them for all our dog-sitting needs and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a compassionate and dedicated dog sitter. Thank you, Madhu & Bharath and family, for everything you do for our furry babies.”
“The boys loved their stay with Kirsten so much they didn’t want to leave. We received daily updates on how and what the boys were doing. I would definitely recommend!”
“Bryan and his wife are incredible pet sitters! They are very accommodating, flexible, and most importantly love animals. Our dog Dutch does not like to be alone. Going to Bryan's house is perfect as he gets to play with Bryan, his wife and the other dogs/cats. We have left Dutch in Bryan's care twice in the last month. Dutch came home happy with no anxiety each time! It is so comforting to know your pet is being loved and cared for. Bryan and his wife are now the only sitters we will use for our Dutchy Dog!”
“Kelli did an amazing job with our anxious dog. It was her first time going to a sitter since she lost her big sister. She loved playing in the fenced yard and all the cuddles.”
“Our Pup loved his time with Dawn! She was very proficient in keeping us up to date with photos. And she was also very flexible on timing for pick up and drop off! Thank you Dawn!”
“Rachel was amazing!! Her and her husband were so kind. They watched our two dogs for four days and I don’t think they wanted to leave 😆 Rachel sent tons of pictures and updates every day. I could definitely tell they were well loved and well cared for! We will definitely be using Rachel again!”

About: I've been the go-to dogsitter for my friends and family for nearly a decade. Over time, they recommended me to others, and dog-sitting became something I'm passionate about. I've cared for dogs of every size from a pomeranian to a great dane. I have experience with puppies & potty training and caring for elderly dogs. It can be hard being away from your pets when away, as I've experienced with my own dog. I'll do everything I can to make you and your pets feel as happy and comfortable as possible. I'm always a text or phone call away and am more than willing to send updates throughout the day. Since I am a remote writer (and homebody), I can stay at your home and make sure your pets are being watched & cared for 24/7. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! As a remote writer who would rather spend all day with dogs than anything, I'm free 24/7 , 7 days a week as long as I have some notice. Whatever your pet walking or feeding schedule may be, I'm happy to adapt to keep your pets routine. I prioritize your pet's safety and comfort while respecting your home. I will follow your specific instructions and keep your home secure. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos to keep you informed and at ease while you’re away.
“Kacy was great- detailed updates and everything was in good order when I returned. She is great with my two elderly kitties who enjoy the attention. Even their finicky eating habits were addressed successfully. Thanks!”
About: I have worked with cats of all size shapes and temperaments! From your kittys that just want all the love to those who just need me to fill their bowls I’d love to take care of them while you’re away!
About: For the past ten years I have helped friends and family alike watching over their pets. I have experience with dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, turtles, hamsters/mice, and birds. Whatever the needs are, I am here to assist and allow you to have peace of mind that your pet is in good hands. I treat all pets like they are my own. I’m available for most all bookings. I am free on the weekends and weekdays. On weekdays I am usually free after 5 and weekends can be made available to suit your needs. Do you have special instructions or pets with special needs? No problem. I pay great attention to detail and can assist in the specific care you may need.
About: I've loved cats ever since I got my first one at 10 years old, and caring for them has been a part of my life ever since. Over the years, I've cared for my own cats and have pet sat for friends and family on many occasions. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. From feeding, fresh water, and litter box maintenance to playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection, I'll care for your cat as if they were one of my own, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ve personally raised and cared for animals of all ages, from rambunctious puppies and curious kittens to calm and loving senior pets and I’ve seen several of my own pets through their full life spans. This has given me deep experience in providing age-appropriate care, whether that means extra playtime and training for younger pets or gentle attention and medication support for seniors. I’m comfortable and experienced with most dog and cat breeds, from small lap dogs to large, energetic pups, and from independent cats to cuddly companions. I know that every animal has a unique personality and needs, and I take pride in getting to know each one individually to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I work from home full time. That means your pet will never be left alone for long periods and will get consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a calm environment, lots of affection, structured routine, or just someone to hang out with, I’m here to provide that kind of care in a homey, stress-free setting. I genuinely treat every animal I care for like family, and that means tons of love, playtime, cuddles, and comfort while you're away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. Since I work from home full-time, my schedule is very flexible, and I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent care and companionship. I build my day around the pets I’m caring for, whether that means morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or cuddle breaks in between work tasks. I love having animals around; they bring joy, routine, and energy to my day. I have a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time, fresh air, and play. My home is pet-friendly and full of love my kids adore animals and enjoy helping care for them, offering even more companionship for your pet while they’re here. We also have a sweet 3-year-old dog named Storm, who’s been around both dogs and cats her whole life. She’s laid-back, friendly, and used to having furry friends around. Because I don’t have to commute or leave the house for long periods, I’m able to give pets my full attention and adjust to their individual needs, including potty breaks, medications, or just some quiet time if they’re more relaxed. On weekends, I enjoy taking dogs on longer walks or play sessions in the yard or at nearby pet-friendly parks (with your permission, of course). Caring for pets isn’t just something I squeeze into my schedule, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. When pets stay in my home, I do everything I can to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they would at home. I start by learning about their routine, habits, and preferences so I can maintain consistency with feeding, potty breaks, sleep, and play. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to run in the yard or prefers to nap in a quiet corner, I adjust my care to meet their individual needs. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air. Inside, pets have free roam of the main living areas, unless you prefer otherwise. I offer plenty of one-on-one attention, including playtime, snuggles, and positive reinforcement. For pets that need a crate, I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep their routine consistent. I work from home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. I also have a friendly dog named Storm who’s used to being around both dogs and cats. Cleanliness, safety, and affection are my top priorities. I make sure pets always have access to clean water, follow any dietary or medical needs, and create a calm, welcoming environment where they can feel right at home.
“Corensia did a great job taking care of our cat Gloria and the outside birds, as well as picking up the mail and packages every day. I appreciated the great photos and could see that Gloria, who is very shy and timid, allowed Corensia to let her and run her belly! Amazing! Thank you. I would definitely use Corensia again.”
“Raquel is wonderful! She took great care of my cats and communicated with me about visits. She made daily drop in visits for my cats. I came home to healthy, calm, well taken care of cats. She is very conscientious. I would recommend her and definitely ask her to care for my cats again.”
About: While I have much more experience caring for dogs, I'm also happy to care for cats! Although I don't have as much hands-on experience with cats, I'm eager to learn each cat's unique routine and personality. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, or simply having someone keep them fed and comfortable, I'll make sure they receive attentive, reliable care while you're away.
About: Hi there! I’m a pediatric nurse, but prior to nursing school I worked as a vet clinic kennel hand and then later as a kennel manager at a boarding/grooming facility. I currently live with my husband and our two dogs, but miss spending time with more dogs! I’d love to help you out with your “goodest” boy or girl. You can rest easy knowing your pup would be with a responsible, reliable, and experienced new friend! I am available all day Monday, Friday, Sunday, and most Saturdays. I’m also available every day after 7:30pm for evening visits! Although I work full time, I am happy to communicate my availability & be flexible. I can accommodate any of your requests in your home for drop in visits or walks. I’m comfortable with all breeds and any special/medical needs. I care for my own senior pup with special needs at home too! Our furry friends deserve the world and I’m happy to respect your routines to keep your pup’s tail wagging.
About: I have had cats all my life and have always enjoyed their company! I have 2 cats right now and they are the most opposite of each other. One is a loving mainecoon and the other is a senior cat that loves her own space. If I am given the opportunity to watch your cat I will make sure to provide the most care for their personal needs. I can’t wait to meet your cat!
“Chayanne was great. She was flexible, able to meet me at the last minute and take the job. She was there everyday on the day/time I requested and stayed for 30 minutes giving my cat lexi some much needed company and sending me pictures of her. Highly recommended.”
About: I am an Ace certified personal trainer. I am a very active person, so I will make sure your pet engages in lots of play time and gets plenty of exercise during their stay. I have a very large fenced in yard which will give your dog lots of space to run and play. I grew up living down the hill from my grandparents farm which included cows, pigs, chickens, lots of barn cats and dogs. I was the kid that was always finding hurt or stray animals and bringing them home to care for. I live in the country and all three of our cats are strays that that my husband and I took in. We also have a dog. I look forward to caring for your pet!
About: Hi, I’m Brenna! I can provide walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, and home visits to check on your pup or cat. I enjoy taking care of and walking dogs around my time working as a nurse. Depending on the day, I am available either nights or days and weekends. My schedule is flexible. I have taken care of small and large dogs and feel comfortable around all breeds. I can take your pup to the dog park and play frisbee or catch. I can check in on your cat, take care of litter, feed them, and play with them. Finally, I hope to get to know you and your dog or cat and provide excellent care! I work part time as a nurse, so my schedule is pretty open/flexible to be able to care for your pets. I don’t currently have any pets of my own so I love to be able to take care of others. I will make sure your dog/puppy/cat is well taken care of. I will treat them like my own. I am respectful of your home and will leave it the same way I found it.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes for the past 10 years. Previous neighbors have trusted me with pet sitting and walking their dogs.

Our family dog, an 11-year-old German Shepherd, sadly passed away in 2024. While we aren’t ready to welcome a new dog into our lives, I truly miss taking care of a pet. That’s why I see pet-sitting as the perfect way to share my love for animals.

About: We live on 5 acres, approx 1/3-2/3 acre fenced. I am an experienced, responsible person that is also timely and dependable. Our 2 labs are very spoiled. I’ve had dogs for 20+ years and am experienced with giving pets medications if it is required, as well as feeding them. I also have senior pet experience. Medication & food would need to be provided by pet owners. We can accommodate overnight stays. Pets can be in crates or in beds depending on your/their preference. I treat every pet special. Currently my availability is open. I am an early riser up by 5am daily. I work from home and pets can access a fenced yard. I’m familiar with providing daily meds & special meals/food for pets as well. Our 2 labs are friendly and get along with other dogs. Both our dogs are fixed (spayed & neutered).

About: Growing up, I lived on a small farm and have been around animals my whole life. I’ve taken care of other peoples pets as well. I’m currently a teacher, and I will have more availability during the the summer. Right now I’m free on the weekends and also some evenings. I have a fenced in yard as well as my own golden doodle. He loves to have friends over and is very friendly and playful. We also have a Ragdoll kitten that is super sweet and friendly.
About: I love big dogs, little dogs, and all in between. I've had two wonderful Golden Retrievers and I'm looking forward to caring for your furbabies. I'm retired and am now looking forward to an enjoyable career as a pet sitter. I'm available 7 days a week, very flexible schedule. My husband and I are retired and are both huge animal lovers. Our Goldens crossed the Rainbow bridge and petsitting is a way to fill the void they left in our lives. We did have a beautiful cat but she passed away from cancer in September 2025. We no longer have any pets in our home. Since I am retired I'll have lots of time to spoil your pets! I'm an early riser so a walk first thing in the morning is fairly routine. Dogs are taken on short walks 3 or 4 times a day and given lots of love and attention. If owners are ok with it they are allowed on furniture and are allowed to sleep on my bed.
“I highly recommend Evan and his partner as a pet sitter! They took wonderful care of my two dogs for a couple of days and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. They were friendly, responsible, and flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. My dogs came home happy and well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups!”
“Wendy and her husband did a terrific job of watching my little guy Toby. You can tell immediately they are dog lovers and treated Toby just as one of theirs or better! I would definitely recommend Wendy if you're looking for a good dog sitter.”
“My family and I were traveling with our dog and wanted to have an option for doggy day care. Kirsten was an excellent choice! We felt confident that our dog was having fun on her vacation day with Kirsten, while we enjoyed some tourist attractions that weren't pet- friendly! Thanks to Kirsten, I will definitely use Rover.com again!”

I have a fur baby at home who I play with and walk all the time, who love to have company over to have someone to play with.
“Molly is a great sitter and I 100% recommend her. Her house is very pet friendly and her children are respectful and kind toward the pet guests. Their family's dog is super sweet and got along just fine. The yard is perfect for the dogs to run around and play and sniff. If I could afford it I'd bring Chloe here more often just to get some "dog time".”

About: Hi! I'm an experienced and dependable pet sitter with over 8 years of pet and house-sitting experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also spent one year working at a boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for multiple pets in a professional setting and learned the importance of maintaining routines, providing enrichment, and recognizing signs that a pet may need extra attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal has unique needs. My 7-year-old Labrador is diabetic, so I'm comfortable administering medications, including oral medications and insulin injections. Whether your pet needs extra medical care, a consistent routine, or just lots of love and attention, I'm happy to provide compassionate, reliable care. During the week, I'm available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight house sitting. My weekends are typically booked, so my availability is primarily Monday through Thursday! My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, while giving you peace of mind through dependable communication and attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently in school and work full-time at a hospital Friday-Sunday. Due to my restrictions on the weekends, my primary availability is during the week. I am available for drop-ins or house sitting during the week and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I also love to send updates throughout the time I spend with your pets, so expect some cute photos!

I look forward to meeting you and your pets! As a remote writer who would rather spend all day with dogs than anything, I'm free 24/7 , 7 days a week as long as I have some notice. Whatever your pet walking or feeding schedule may be, I'm happy to adapt to keep your pets routine. I prioritize your pet's safety and comfort while respecting your home. I will follow your specific instructions and keep your home secure. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos to keep you informed and at ease while you’re away.
About: Hi there! I’m a pediatric nurse, but prior to nursing school I worked as a vet clinic kennel hand and then later as a kennel manager at a boarding/grooming facility. I currently live with my husband and our two dogs, but miss spending time with more dogs! I’d love to help you out with your “goodest” boy or girl. You can rest easy knowing your pup would be with a responsible, reliable, and experienced new friend! I am available all day Monday, Friday, Sunday, and most Saturdays. I’m also available every day after 7:30pm for evening visits! Although I work full time, I am happy to communicate my availability & be flexible. I can accommodate any of your requests in your home for drop in visits or walks. I’m comfortable with all breeds and any special/medical needs. I care for my own senior pup with special needs at home too! Our furry friends deserve the world and I’m happy to respect your routines to keep your pup’s tail wagging.
About: I’ve had dogs most of my life and began learning to train them in 2005. I have had over 50 different breeds under my care. I’m very active so dog walks are enjoyable. Trust is important both ways. I won’t accept badly tempered dogs into my home, and can travel to you or meet up to work through training. Let’s chat to fit your needs. I am pretty flexible and sometimes only need one to two days notice unless I am already all booked up. Just reach out and we can see what may work out. I have a fenced yard, large crate, and a well-trained Sheppard/lab mix to help take care of your dog, give them company, and play however you prefer.
About: I've had pets in my family since I was a kid, and I have taken care of foster animals, family pets and friends pets throughout adulthood. I have taken care of pets who have medication needs and environment needs (scared of thunder and such.) I work for myself, so I am able to work around my work hours accordingly and easily to provide the care that is needed for my clients. My care is adaptive to each pet family's needs and home. I am an observant person and pay attention to the details while caring for pets. I cannot take on daycare or boarding services right now, but I am more than happy to take dogs for walks, care for cats, and pet sit while you're away.
About: Hi! My name is Evie and I am a college student home for summer break. As a pet owner for my entire life, I understand how stressful it can be, for both you and your pet, to be a part. I’m here to make sure that stress is eased as much as possible by ensuring your pet feels loved, safe, and cared for. Whether this means frequent walks, play time, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I treat every pet like my own. I have experience with: - elderly dogs - puppies - administering medicine to (even the most reluctant) dogs - very big and very small dogs I am currently available full time for your pet while I search for a part time job for the summer. I am also an avid walker, perfect for active dogs. As the temporary care taker of your pet, I will make sure to give them lots of attention, and to feed, water, walk, and play with them. I will monitor closely to ensure no accidents happen in the house, and crate them if desired.
“Brenna has been wonderful! We've booked her for recurring weekly walks. Her communication is excellent. She arrives on time and is patient with our two boys as they get to know her. We would recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve had my own pet sitting business since I was 12. After starting college, I have taken up pet grooming for the past 2 years. I do handle elder and young pets aswell. A lot of the time we take a trip around the neighborhood or hiking on a nearby trail to burn extra energy. I do currently work full time from home. I do have to go in some day to help out with the kids, but no longer than 4 hours. I have an unfenced yard and a lab myself. The pets are aloud to roam around and lay on furniture if that’s ok with you. They will be provided with 3 full meals a day unless stated otherwise and let out every 2-4 hours.
About: I've grown up around 8 dogs and 2 cats total across my family, so I've had experience for around 10 years. I've had friends and family trust me with pet sitting and dog walking, and I have experience with senior dogs! I'm currently finishing my senior year of high school and I participate in my school's band and theater, so some dates may conflict with my availability. On nights I am available (most weekdays and weekends) however, I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! I will 1000% keep your fur babies safe at all times. Whatever your home has for safety or what you tell me, I will always use.
About: I have taken care of animals for the past 15 years with all different types of dogs also I have had experience with chickens and rabbits. I love animals love taking care of them. Walking, playing, socializing, or simply hanging out is something I love so much I currently have no job. Looking to do this as often as I can and hoping to meet some great dogs to brighten their day and brighten mine! I can easily crate your dog if needed and give oral medication if necessary. I love treating all dogs as if they are my own!
About: Hi! I am Lillian and I'm an avid animal lover and would love to hang with your pups or cats!! I have had experience with all ages of dogs and cats and would be comfortable with all age groups. I grew up working with horses, dogs, cats and even nursed wild bunnies to health. I've worked with high energy dogs to the older guys and gals who need some extra coaxing. Some of the animals I've taken care of in the past have needed meds or special food routines ect. so that shouldn't be a issue at all.. I love a long walk or run as well if needed. I look forward to working with you and your pups! I am free all day and would love spending my evenings, mid day or afternoons walking or hangin with your pal. I am available early mornings as well as Sunday and Monday! I currently have three cats and a husky who are bonded and beyond besties. We are avid hikers and campers together and they truly love their adventures. My pup and two cats currently on medication so I am familiar with and comfortable helping out in any way.
About: I am an Ace certified personal trainer. I am a very active person, so I will make sure your pet engages in lots of play time and gets plenty of exercise during their stay. I have a very large fenced in yard which will give your dog lots of space to run and play. I grew up living down the hill from my grandparents farm which included cows, pigs, chickens, lots of barn cats and dogs. I was the kid that was always finding hurt or stray animals and bringing them home to care for. I live in the country and all three of our cats are strays that that my husband and I took in. We also have a dog. I look forward to caring for your pet!
“We have used Barbara multiple times. She always communicates well and is extremely nice to our dog. We appreciate having someone so reliable and never have any doubts about the care and attention given to our dog. Would absolutely recommend her.”

“Leanne and family were great. My dog had a wonderful time and was well taken care of. Leanne sent me updates and photos each day. My dog has a fitness tracker and I’ve never seen her get so many steps! She loved their yard and slept with Leanne’s son every night.”
“Mara was great with watching our dog Jax and was even able to take him over the holiday vacation for us. She was communicative, nice and accommodating. Jax had a great time and was well taken care of while we were away!”
“Lydia was OUTSTANDING! She treated our kitties 😸 Lilo and Finny as her own. Great to work with. I would not hesitate to book her. An amazing and caring person. Thank you for the love you showed our pets.”
“My three chihuahuas has been with Tara now for 1 year total of two times and this visit was wonderful as well! Tara is so sweet, attentive and thoughtful throughout my babies stay. Highly recommend Tara as your sitter, great grounds too!”
“Cameron is truly a dog whisperer! My pup Louie and I are from Georgia and were completely unfamiliar with the area, but finding Cameron was a blessing! I’ve trusted him to watch my 5-year-old twice now, and I honestly don’t think I could find a more reliable and knowledgeable sitter. Cameron isn’t just a sitter—he’s a trainer too! He’s worked with Louie and me both at his home and at the park, helping address Louie’s past aggression with strangers. The progress has been incredible—our daily walks have become so much easier and more enjoyable! Louie also has severe allergies, and I was initially worried about flare-ups and hives while I was away. But thanks to Cameron’s careful attention and experience, Louie hasn’t had a single issue. I’m beyond grateful for the care and dedication Cameron has shown. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy—especially for your first time—you cannot go wrong with him. You have my word”
“Pepper was well cared for and Katie was super patient with his reclusive behavior in a new environment. Very communicative throughout the whole stay. Would definitely book again!”
About: Former vet office employee turned SAHM looking for pets to love on from my home. Excited to give quality attention to every pet in my care. I’m a stay at home mom to one kiddo so we are home most days/ evenings to play in the yard, go on walks, or just snuggle on the couch. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play with our 3 year old poodle, Frankie. We will do everything we can to make every pet feel safe and comfortable.

“This is our second time using Madhu. We cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Marguerite and her family for our dog-sitting needs. Our dogs are like our babies, and finding someone who treats them with the same love and care that we do is priceless. Mahda and her family are incredibly caring and sweet, treating our pups like part of their own family. From the very first time we left our dogs with them, we knew they were in the best hands. They always keep us updated with photos and messages, so we never have to worry about how our fur babies are doing. The level of trust we have in them is immense, and it brings us such peace of mind knowing our dogs are happy and well-cared for when we're away. Madhu's home is truly a second home for our dogs, and we couldn't be happier with the care they receive. We will continue to rely on them for all our dog-sitting needs and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a compassionate and dedicated dog sitter. Thank you, Madhu & Bharath and family, for everything you do for our furry babies.”
