“Emma was great with Sherman! She communicated very clearly, sent long, detailed updates on how he was doing, and was very flexible with drop off and pick up which was really nice! She met up before to make sure her pup and mine got along and made sure to give my dog a lot of attention and time that he needed to feel comfortable! Would absolutely have Emma watch my pup again, definitely recommend!”
“Danielle took excellent care of Echo! She was communicative, flexible, and our dog had a great time with her pup. Would definitely trust her to watch our dog again! Thank you Danielle.”
“It is always reassuring when Kerry and her family take care of our pups when we are out of town. Our two dogs love Kerry and family, and are always happy to go. Thank you!!”
“Andrea and her pup, Ruger, came through when we had an unexpected trip come up. She took care of our dog-girl with no issues at all. Would definitely use her again!”
“Megan and Matt took amazing care of my two dogs! They took them on a hike everyday and made them feel comfortable in their home. Marley is 15 so it’s always hard for me to leave him but they were so patient with him and even hiked with him in his backpack! They also sent pictures every day and I really enjoyed that. I would definitely recommend Megan and Matt!”
“Nicole was great to my pup, took her out for two walks a day, hiked with her and played with her in the yard. She sent updates daily with pictures. It’s clear that she really loves and understands dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving Lela with her.”
“Memo and Auggie were amazing!! They provided such thoughtful and loving care for my pup while I was out of town. I loved getting the daily "Pupdate" with photos and a note because I was always reassured that my pup had a great day. Memo put all of my anxieties at ease and gave us the best boarding experience we've ever had. They really put all of their energy and attention into making sure my dog was comfortable and thriving. I also appreciated how they were very intentional about making sure staying with them was the right fit from the start. It just goes to show how much they care about providing a great experience for the pup and for the owner. My dog loved his time there and even seemed a little sad to leave when it was time to go home. We definitely recommend Memo's services and will be coming back for sure! Thanks again, Memo & Auggie, you're the best!!”
“Five stars! This was our first time leaving the pups with someone and I am so grateful we found Jen. I knew they were being taken care of and loved like her own pets. It was easy to communicate and I received photos and updates and that really helped us while being away from them. We will definitely be taking our doggies back to stay at Jen’s!”
“Teresa's home was a good place for Nessie, my husky, to stay. She has a nice backyard with tall fences to keep her contained, and our dogs did fine when greeting. Teresa sent photos which is always nice to see. I would use her again.”
“Brianna was so very responsive and and understanding about missing our doggie. She sent updates and pictures everyday and was quick to respond to messages. She took our dog for walks and big adventures that my GPS really needed! We had our high energy dog with her for a week and our dog came back to us healthy and happy.”
“Our older dog was well taken care of by Ellen. We received cute updates and quick communication. Would be happy to have her look after our Sidney again and Sidney would be happy to see her!”
About: Animals have been a constant in my life since childhood. I've loved and cared for many pets of my own - dogs, cats, ferrets, small animals, reptiles, birds, and fish - which has given me hands-on experience with everything from syringe feeding to crate, house, and litter box training to medical and senior care. I've fostered rescues, volunteered at the Humane Society, worked in pet stores, and looked after friends' and neighbors' pets many times over the years. I'm attentive, calm, and protective, with a deep respect for all living beings. When you trust me with your pet, you can count on them being safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I'm home throughout the week so pets in my care are never left unsupervised and get plenty of attention, interaction, and companionship. If there are any daytime hours where I may need to be away from home, that will always be communicated clearly with owners ahead of time during scheduling. I have two small dogs and a cat of my own, so I'm very mindful about maintaining a calm environment, always paying close attention to the comfort, boundaries, and safety of each animal. My one-level home has a fully fenced backyard where pets enjoy supervised outdoor time for play, exercise, and potty breaks. Pets in my care are treated like members of the family, and because I prioritize consistent supervision and safety, I do not offer off-property pack walks during boarding stays.
About: I have been caring for animals since pet sitting for my aunt and uncle’s 3 rowdy dogs as a teen, sometimes up to a month when they went on long trips. I also have cared for dogs of my own for most of my adult life and consider them to be members of the family. My current dog Ron has some special care needs which has taught me to be patient and sensitive to pups who need a little extra care and attention. I would love to welcome your furry buddy into our home and would treat them like another member of the family. I currently work from home so am able to give your pup lots of attention and exercise. I also am a very active person and love to frequent the local trails if that is something you would like for your pup. I have a fenced front and back yard and a dog door that can be locked if need be. I have multiple dog beds and also allow dogs on the furniture (I of course will not allow it if it’s a behavior you don’t want your dog to learn). Like I said, I consider them to be part of the family.
“Loved Delaney she was absolutely wonderful. She took amazing care of Eddy. Im extremely happy with her and bullet and I plan on having her care for Eddy again”
“Carol was great! My dog was very happy after her stay! Carol was a great communicator and I knew she took amazing care of my dog when I was away. I highly recommend Carol and will be using her in the future!”
“Leah treated my dog Boo like a king. I couldn't have been happier about his stay with her, and neither could Boo. Leah's a great communicator-I received daily feedback of what they were doing, where they went, and reports on his behavior, how he got along with her dogs, and pictures(!). She has 2 dogs that were super playful and sweet with Boo. Leah was very careful to introduce our dogs first, which clued me in to how responsible and caring she is. While Boo was there, not only did he get to play in her yard and cuddle on the couch with her (um, he's 65 lbs and growing), she also took him on outings-including the dog island! I would definitely use Leah again and felt super comfortable about her taking care of my buddy. Highly recommended. Thank you Leah-from both of us! You're awesome!”
“Gabrielle took such good care of our dog and new puppy! She went on walks down by the river, played with the dogs, and sent us pictures throughout the day so we could see how they were doing. We definitely trust Gabrielle and highly recommend her. She is just wonderful. Thank you for everything you did to make our dogs happy. Our oldest dog, Tucker, didn't want to leave Gabrielle's house when we came to pick up the dogs after our trip. A true testament to how well they were treated. Thank you!”
“This is an excellent property if you’re leaving your pooch for a few days. Lots of space with an excellent care provider. Sarah kept us updated with activity reports and (fantastic) photos. We will absolutely bring Duke back here again!”

“Quinn is great, came home to a very happy cat! They're super responsive and easy to talk to. Knew our cat was in safe hands while we were away. Thanks Quinn!”
About: I've had my own pets for over ten years! I've been the go-to dog and cat sitter for friends and family since I could drive, everything from weekend trips to month long visits, I've always been happy to help! I've had my own cats growing up and had families I've sat for with 3-5 cats, so a little army of cats don't scare me! As a pet parent we all know we need extra hands sometimes!
“Danielle has been fantastic and incredibly flexible for us! Shes always taken great care of Lawrence and Kvothe, and has even been accommodating on short notice!”
“Louise was amazing! She was supper communicative and sent us frequent photos of our cats. I would not have felt more confident about their safety and wellbeing with anyone else. I highly recommend Louise.”
“Zoe is great! She’s done a few drop in visits for my cat. She’s been very communicative and flexible. You can tell how much she loves animals. My cat is pretty shy and she warmed up to her right away. Thank you Zoe!”
“Nevaeh is communicative, on time, and personable. It was nice to find someone that does not only put a lot of effort into tending to our cat’s needs, but also cared deeply for our cat at the same time.”
“Kayln was incredible! She is so trustworthy and treats your pets like they are her own. I have two cats that are pretty picky and needy. With no trouble at all she took incredible care of them. Would recommend to anyone that wants to go on vacation and not have to worry about anything!”
“Kayla did a great job with our cat while we were gone for Christmas. We appreciated all the pictures and updates, and we know she was well taken care of!”
“Molly is great! She was very communicative and sent updates with great pics every day! She is experienced which helped ease my mind for my cats while we were away. Both of my cats loved her too! Highly recommend Molly to watch over your pets!”
“Bri took great care of my two kitties while I was away. I came home to happy cats and a clean living space! One of my cats has a disability that requires extra attention with feeding and the health issue has lead to my own anxiety around pet care. Bri gave me so much peace of mind while I was away and often out of service. I highly recommend her. If she’s available in the future I’ll be happy to book with her again. Thank you, Brianna!”
About: I have been a reliable cat sitter for friends, family and neighbors for the past decade. I am prepared to check in with your cats at your home or house-sit while you are away. My experience as a veterinary receptionist has prepared me to care administer medication and care for minor wounds.
“Ellen was a great sitter for my shy kitty. She kept me updated regularly and even offered to extend her care for an extra night to keep my kitty comfortable. I came back to my home in the same shape I left it with a happy cat!”
“This was my first time using Rover.com. My dog Marco and I had a great experience! We met Casey for a meet and greet prior to the dog walk. I was very impressed with Casey's professionalism. Casey helped answer all my questions about the service and tips for using the app. Love the Rover card. Even received a picture of my dog on the walk. Marco said he likes Casey and would definitely enjoy another walk or visit. Will plan on scheduling soon!”
“August was amazing! My dogs loved him, even my old crabby dog. He was also very accommodating to the schedule we needed. I would trust August with my dogs anytime! So thankful to have found him!”
“I will absolutely be reaching out to Luisa next time I need a pet sitter. They took time to meet in person beforehand, asked thoughtful questions on care, and took great care of my cat while I was away. I highly recommend Luisa as a pet sitter, you can be confident your pet is good hands.”
“Josephine was great with my two difficult cats. I loved the daily the pictures... she even found the cat who plays "hide and don't seek." This is the first time I have hired someone, and I didn't even worry while I was gone; I knew they were in good hands.”
“We had Ken for a 2 day house sit for our dog, Flash. In all of our years using Rover, we’ve rarely had a sitter who loves Flash as much (maybe more!) than we do. Ken even made a special late evening visit outside of those that were scheduled just to make sure Flash had a little extra love before bed. We came back to a tidy home and happy pooch. Will definitely have Ken back again!”

“Bryan was awesome. He was available last minute to watch our dog while we were visiting family in Montana. Bryan was very communicative and sent photos of Javi throughout the day. Would 10000% use Bryan and his dog Ron on our next visit to Missoula!”
“Brianna was quick to respond to any message I sent,, she took my dog on a hike and tried her best to get all of his energy out. Thank you so much for accommodating Quinn last minute!”

“Seriously the best dogsitter ever! I was in town for an event with a schedule that kept changing so my plans were all over the place and Danielle was so helpful and came to the rescue last minute when I needed an extra day of daycare. My dog came home happy and he clearly had fun :) I've already booked Danielle again!”
About: I have been a pet owner my whole life. I have experience walking, potty, obedience & agility training dogs and cats, as well as grooming dogs and cats, medication administration, and lots of snuggles and play time with both. I also provide emotional care & support for your animals, in addition to food, water & exercise. I also care for birds. Weekday and weekend availability. I am also available holidays. The sooner you can book me ahead of time, the better. Message me and I will come over for a meet & greet! I only care for cats & dogs & birds in the client’s home, and follow instructions carefully. Food, litter and playtime is my first priority. Love to walk dogs. Additional services as needed.
About: I am a full-time journalist who loves to get out on the weekends! I’m originally from Alaska and spend every opportunity I can getting outside with my 15-year-old border collie. I work from home and stay with the animals all day. We wake up early for potty breaks first thing in the morning. Dogs are allowed on the furniture for ultimate snuggles! I have a fenced yard with plenty of animal friends to keep your pet occupied and comfortable. The house is also large enough that if your animal needs space, we can cordon off an area for them to have peace and quiet.

“Needed a last minute daycare situation while on the road, Lauren’s place was perfect! My dog was able to play with a fun group of other dogs in a beautiful setting just outside of town. Thank you so much! Will def be back the next time we’re in the area!”
About: Greetings! I've grown up with adopted dogs and have raised one from a puppy to adulthood. My entire home is open to pups (human beds and furniture), but will adhere to any rules you have in your home. My neighborhood has a lot of kids and other dogs around, as well as large common areas for running around. Can administer medication via treats or orally. Have experience working with dogs on- and off-leash, as well as in packs. Will be able to transport pups in a roomy vehicle all around town and beyond. My daily schedule is pretty flexible, and I'm open to hosting pups in my house or dropping in at the comfort of your pup's own home. Tell me all about your furry friend. Hoping I can meet you and your companion soon! I have a very sporadic work schedule, so I'm home frequently during the weekdays and weekends, and typically am only gone from the home for about 5 hours if I have to be somewhere. I'm able to accommodate frequent walk and bathroom break schedules, have experience taking multiple dogs in my car to hiking trails and other adventure areas. When I'm available to work, I'll frequently be with your pet throughout the day and overnight. While I do not have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet neighborhood with open grassy areas and safe sidewalks. Will frequently run into kids of all ages in the area, and they're very responsive to dogs of all temperaments. If in your home I'd like to know anything and everything to keep your pet safe and comfortable, if you have cameras indoors or outdoors, as well as anything else about your pet's routine.
About: I'm a wildlife biologist who grew up with pets of all kinds. I provide 24/7 personalized care in a safe, loving, and playful environment. Your pet will join my family: our well-socialized dog Juniper, my husband (also a wildlife biologist), and our 2 daughters. Your pet will enjoy access to our comfortable indoor living areas and a large, securely fenced backyard. I am experienced with puppies and senior dogs and only take one client at a time (up to 2 dogs). I am always with or near the dogs, so they are never left alone. I work from home on part-time contracts and care for our family dog while kids are at school. I'm able to offer daily walks and as many mealtimes, potty breaks, and attention as your pet needs. At night, pets sleep inside in whichever arrangement is preferred for them. It can be so hard to leave a beloved pet, but not to worry, I truly like to give pets their best life! I'm able to care for well-socialized pets and provide plenty of exercise and affection every day, and cozy resting spots where I am never far. I have a large fenced yard and 2 crates available if needed (unless instructed to use a crate, I do not use them). Reactive dogs are not a good fit for my home.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, having grown up with them since the age of five. Caring for dogs has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely love giving them the attention, patience, and affection they deserve. Over the years, friends and family have consistently trusted me to care for their dogs while they’re away, knowing their pets would be safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feedings, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in being attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m now excited to turn this lifelong passion into something fulfilling and rewarding by offering reliable dog-sitting services. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace—and I always strive to create a calm, loving environment. My goal is for every dog in my care to feel happy, secure, and loved, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your dog will return to you just as happy as you make them. I work from home so will have plenty of time to play and give attention to your fur babies. I will make lots of time for playtime, walks and love. I have a fenced in yard or I can keep them crated if you need/want. Just depends on your preference. If you want me to dog sit at your house, I will follow whatever routine you already have with your dogs so they don’t even realize you are gone or mess their routine up too much.
About: Ive had and taken care of my dogs and other people's dogs and cats since I was 10. I have 3 dogs myself and love walking and spending time with them. I've administered medication, vaccines and know basic first aid. Experience also working at a horse stable so im comfortable around all animals. Hope to meet you and your fur babies soon. Free during the day most days as I work nights on the weekends. I can also do farm or livestock care I look forward to discussing you and your pets needs. I work from home and keep boarded dogs in office with me when working and in secured area/crate if I need to be out of the house. My yard is fenced with 6ft kennel panels.

“Danielle was AMAZING! I have such an anxious pup who can be very skeptical over strangers, however after every walk the photos she sent…I could tell my boy was getting SO loved. I have been in and out of service but Danielle gave plenty of updates and I would TOTALLY rebook in the future if needed!”
“Daisy loved her trip out with Laurie, she loved how responsive Laurie was to her needs (letting her stop and sniff the roses.) I loved how thorough she was in wanting to get to know Daisy before heading out and how comfortable I feel booking her again.”
“Brianna is such an AMAZING sitter / walker! She has been incredibly reliable, communicative and generous with my pups! She has been available to both overnight with my dogs as well as take them on walks and they have always come home happy and healthy! And they all love her dog too! She takes them on adventures and really cares for them. She is my go-to for trusted pet sitters! I highly recommend her!”
“Maddisyn was great with our dogs, we would (and will) book her again! We could tell she’s spent a lot of time with pets, which really made leaving our pups alone so much easier. One of our dogs is aging and needs some more care; she was very attentive to our sweet old man. Great sitter!”
“Lucy is wonderful! She did two walks a day for my Golden Retriever while I was out of town! He loves her and would wait by the front door for her each time! She is so sweet and accommodating!”
About: Hi! I am Bethany. I am a fur-mom of a 6-year-old kitty, Olivia, and an 12-year-old dog, Syd. I have had animals my entire life (31 years!), and I have extensive experience with sitting other people's animals. I have been pet sitting since high school, and I still do it today. I play with animals of all shapes and sizes, and would love to meet yours! I am in grad school remotely, so I have a super flexible schedule! I have a 5-year-old kitty, Olivia, and an 11-year-old dog, Syd, so I don't do overnight stays. I care for your pets however you ask me to! I love animals, and respect that they're your babies, and I will follow your care guidelines.
About: Hi! My name is Courtney, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a mom who was always bringing home abandoned and rescued animals, so our house was never short on furry (or feathered!) family members. I was also raised on a farm where we cared for two horses, a donkey named Abigail, goats, chickens, rabbits, six outdoor cats, two indoor cats, and two dogs. Growing up in that environment taught me the responsibility, patience, and dedication that quality animal care requires. It also showed me just how rewarding the bond between people and animals can be. Today, I have a 13-year-old Golden Retriever named Mia, who is truly my whole world. Caring for her through every stage of her life has deepened my understanding of what pets mean to their families. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your beloved companion, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I recently graduated with my master's degree from the University of Montana and currently have a very flexible schedule while I search for my next career opportunity. That means I can provide dependable, attentive care and work around your pet's routine, whether they need walks, playtime, companionship, or lots of affection. I believe animals are some of our greatest supporters, and there's nothing more special than the unconditional love they share with us. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving their owners complete peace of mind. I'll care for your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I recently graduated with my master's degree from the University of Montana and am currently searching for the next step in my career. Because of that, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Whether your dog enjoys mountain hikes, neighborhood walks, trips to the dog park, or long games of fetch, I'm happy to tailor our time together to match their energy level and personality. For pets who prefer a slower pace, I'm just as happy spending quality time providing companionship, enrichment, and plenty of cuddles. Since I have open availability, your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I take the time to follow your instructions carefully so they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I live at the Corso Apartments in central Missoula, which features a large, well-maintained dog park right on the property. We're also located directly next to the Milwaukee Trail, making it easy to provide safe, enjoyable neighborhood walks or longer adventures for dogs who love to explore. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my apartment or yours, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of love. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your pet is in caring hands.
“This was my first time using Rover.com. My dog Marco and I had a great experience! We met Casey for a meet and greet prior to the dog walk. I was very impressed with Casey's professionalism. Casey helped answer all my questions about the service and tips for using the app. Love the Rover card. Even received a picture of my dog on the walk. Marco said he likes Casey and would definitely enjoy another walk or visit. Will plan on scheduling soon!”
About: College student wanting to care for your pets! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 9 years old and love them all. I’ll cater to your needs. I am a college student and have some availability to dog walk or visit between classes during the week. I can work with you on time and duration as it fits into my schedule! For house pet-sitting I’m flexible to when I am free so reach out and ask about my availability! I respect the home I care for the dogs in and respect the rules set for their pets. I’m attentive to the dogs needs during my stay and make them top priority.
About: Hi, my name is a Nevaeh and I am a nineteen year old who hasn't had one moment in my life where I wasn't surrounded by animals. From being five years old with my grandma's grouchy old cat, to my cousin's place with two dogs and four cats, to being nine and getting my own cat and dog. I am no stranger to big dogs wanting to play like puppies, little dogs with attitudes twice their size and cats being, well, cats. Every time I meet a new animal, I make it a point to introduce myself to them directly. Even sitting down on the ground to be on their level and let them come to me. I want to take care of them, why wouldn't I let them decide they like me? Currently, I work part time Friday through Monday (With Sundays open) and then have Tuesday through Thursdays open. This might change, it might not. I am looking for a full time job. But if I can fit a pet in, I will. As I said, I grew up with several dogs and cats. So I am aware every one is different and requires different care. And much like my banner alludes to, I am a pre-vet student. I'd love to take all the animal experience I can gain. If you have certain requirements for your pet, I can absolutely abide to them.
“August is our dog walking KING!!!! I have a high energy middle aged Australian Shepherd who is used to exciting off leash outings, and August was able to fill in for me with impressive ease. Not only is he thoroughly communicative and timely, he also has an incredible intuition for my dogs needs and habits, the kind of sense that you only find among true dog lovers. There’s no one I’d trust more with my precious pup!!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens since I was a kid. My mother worked at an animal shelter so we always had fosters around to care for and socialize. I've also had dogs and cats as family pets for as long as I can remember. I work long shifts as a package delivery driver Sunday-Wednesday so I am only available for walks/pet sitting Thursday-Saturday evening. I love animals though and am super excited to make some new pals! Unfortunately I can't have clients pets stay at my place but while I'm at their owners house/out for a walk the animal will remain leashed and have my full attention.
“Bella and Erik are super nice and helpful, and my dog Oliver took to them immediately. I'm so grateful to have found such lovely people to take care of my pooch at our new home.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs from the age of 3 years old, helping take care of pugs, labs, chihuahua mixes, and having had my own beagle mix for the last 4 years. My Rigby does accompany me on any overnight sits, but I am happy to provide one on one attention for walks or drop in visits! I walked dogs for a few months in college and regularly dog sat for a cane corso back on the east coast, helped raise a lab from 4 months to 2 years, and enjoyed many Rover pups last summer! My schedule is flexible and I’d love to fill it with furry friends! My dog and I walk daily in greenough park and also enjoy Sgt. Bozo dog park in the early afternoon or evenings now that the weather has gotten hotter. We love to hike when we can and enjoy time on the river or my paddle board! We’d love to include your pup on our adventures! I am happy to dedicate time solely to your fur baby on walks and drop ins, but my dog Rigby would have to be able to tag along for any house sits. He is extremely well mannered and socialized and has helped train a few young dogs! Since I will either be walking or staying with your dog in your space, I am happy to accommodate any of their needs! If they prefer to be crated at any time, if they need to walk on a certain leash, require any medication or treats, whatever your pup needs to be the most comfortable and safely cared for!
About: I was raised around both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Since moving to Missoula from Atlanta, I’ve been missing my own family’s pets and am excited to share that love with others. Pet sitting gives me the chance to fill my cup by spending time with animals while also helping families feel at ease knowing their pets are cared for. I work full time, but since my job is fully remote, it’s easy for me to step away throughout the day. This flexibility allows me to give pets the attention they need—whether that’s walks, playtime, or snuggles—without disrupting their routine. Caring for animals fits naturally into my schedule, and I love being able to break up my workday with their company. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking to their usual routine—mealtimes, walks, play, and plenty of affection. I make sure their environment stays safe, clean, and stress-free, while also giving them extra love and attention so they don’t feel lonely while you’re away. If caring for pets in my own space, we have a fully fenced in yard and my roommates have a wonderful 2.5 year old dog named Murphy. She’s the best and does great with other dogs!

“Emma was great with Sherman! She communicated very clearly, sent long, detailed updates on how he was doing, and was very flexible with drop off and pick up which was really nice! She met up before to make sure her pup and mine got along and made sure to give my dog a lot of attention and time that he needed to feel comfortable! Would absolutely have Emma watch my pup again, definitely recommend!”
“It is always reassuring when Kerry and her family take care of our pups when we are out of town. Our two dogs love Kerry and family, and are always happy to go. Thank you!!”
“Andrea and her pup, Ruger, came through when we had an unexpected trip come up. She took care of our dog-girl with no issues at all. Would definitely use her again!”
“Megan and Matt took amazing care of my two dogs! They took them on a hike everyday and made them feel comfortable in their home. Marley is 15 so it’s always hard for me to leave him but they were so patient with him and even hiked with him in his backpack! They also sent pictures every day and I really enjoyed that. I would definitely recommend Megan and Matt!”
“Nicole was great to my pup, took her out for two walks a day, hiked with her and played with her in the yard. She sent updates daily with pictures. It’s clear that she really loves and understands dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving Lela with her.”
“Memo and Auggie were amazing!! They provided such thoughtful and loving care for my pup while I was out of town. I loved getting the daily "Pupdate" with photos and a note because I was always reassured that my pup had a great day. Memo put all of my anxieties at ease and gave us the best boarding experience we've ever had. They really put all of their energy and attention into making sure my dog was comfortable and thriving. I also appreciated how they were very intentional about making sure staying with them was the right fit from the start. It just goes to show how much they care about providing a great experience for the pup and for the owner. My dog loved his time there and even seemed a little sad to leave when it was time to go home. We definitely recommend Memo's services and will be coming back for sure! Thanks again, Memo & Auggie, you're the best!!”
“Five stars! This was our first time leaving the pups with someone and I am so grateful we found Jen. I knew they were being taken care of and loved like her own pets. It was easy to communicate and I received photos and updates and that really helped us while being away from them. We will definitely be taking our doggies back to stay at Jen’s!”
“Teresa's home was a good place for Nessie, my husky, to stay. She has a nice backyard with tall fences to keep her contained, and our dogs did fine when greeting. Teresa sent photos which is always nice to see. I would use her again.”
“Brianna was so very responsive and and understanding about missing our doggie. She sent updates and pictures everyday and was quick to respond to messages. She took our dog for walks and big adventures that my GPS really needed! We had our high energy dog with her for a week and our dog came back to us healthy and happy.”
“Our older dog was well taken care of by Ellen. We received cute updates and quick communication. Would be happy to have her look after our Sidney again and Sidney would be happy to see her!”
About: I have been caring for animals since pet sitting for my aunt and uncle’s 3 rowdy dogs as a teen, sometimes up to a month when they went on long trips. I also have cared for dogs of my own for most of my adult life and consider them to be members of the family. My current dog Ron has some special care needs which has taught me to be patient and sensitive to pups who need a little extra care and attention. I would love to welcome your furry buddy into our home and would treat them like another member of the family. I currently work from home so am able to give your pup lots of attention and exercise. I also am a very active person and love to frequent the local trails if that is something you would like for your pup. I have a fenced front and back yard and a dog door that can be locked if need be. I have multiple dog beds and also allow dogs on the furniture (I of course will not allow it if it’s a behavior you don’t want your dog to learn). Like I said, I consider them to be part of the family.
“Loved Delaney she was absolutely wonderful. She took amazing care of Eddy. Im extremely happy with her and bullet and I plan on having her care for Eddy again”
“Carol was great! My dog was very happy after her stay! Carol was a great communicator and I knew she took amazing care of my dog when I was away. I highly recommend Carol and will be using her in the future!”
“Leah treated my dog Boo like a king. I couldn't have been happier about his stay with her, and neither could Boo. Leah's a great communicator-I received daily feedback of what they were doing, where they went, and reports on his behavior, how he got along with her dogs, and pictures(!). She has 2 dogs that were super playful and sweet with Boo. Leah was very careful to introduce our dogs first, which clued me in to how responsible and caring she is. While Boo was there, not only did he get to play in her yard and cuddle on the couch with her (um, he's 65 lbs and growing), she also took him on outings-including the dog island! I would definitely use Leah again and felt super comfortable about her taking care of my buddy. Highly recommended. Thank you Leah-from both of us! You're awesome!”
“Gabrielle took such good care of our dog and new puppy! She went on walks down by the river, played with the dogs, and sent us pictures throughout the day so we could see how they were doing. We definitely trust Gabrielle and highly recommend her. She is just wonderful. Thank you for everything you did to make our dogs happy. Our oldest dog, Tucker, didn't want to leave Gabrielle's house when we came to pick up the dogs after our trip. A true testament to how well they were treated. Thank you!”
“This is an excellent property if you’re leaving your pooch for a few days. Lots of space with an excellent care provider. Sarah kept us updated with activity reports and (fantastic) photos. We will absolutely bring Duke back here again!”
“Lucy was so accommodating and welcoming to Oliver, my anxious little scruffy terrier. They quickly became pals and he liked having a sleepover and hanging at her house. I appreciate her acceptance of his funny quirks and her kindness.”
“Carmen was so great with Sadie! She was so good at keeping me updated on how she was doing and sent photos to show me what they were up to. She took her out on adventures to exercise her. Her dog was very friendly and got along great with mine. Would highly recommend!”
