“Very nice family! I was at ease as soon as I arrived. My dogs felt like they were at home. I was sent pictures daily with updates. My dogs were very well taken care of. Thomas and his wife were awesome and very welcoming. Will definitely use them again for my fur babies.”

“Even when it's been months since my little guy has seen Anna, she makes him feel immediately comfortable and loved. That makes me feel better about leaving him. She's super responsive and sends photos/videos while I'm gone. I appreciate having found someone I feel safe leaving my buddy with!”

“Very satisfactory stay! Ross and Sarah cared for my big dog who had lots of separation anxiety, working with her and accommodating her fears. They were kind and understanding - and sent lots of photos to reassure me! I'll definitely use them again!”

“Scott and Ellen have been amazing with Kaiser. They kept me updated eveyday with how Kaiser’s stay was going and sent pictures of them playing together and going for walks. They are the best!”

“Aubrey was so attentive to the pups! She’s the best! They came home looking very well cared for and very happy. Usually my dogs only play together and aren’t interested in other pups but they loved her dog, cooper. Her house is very warm, inviting, and full of life and I have no doubt that they had the best vacation with her and her family. I also had to book last minute because a previous sitter fell through and Aubrey was so accommodating and understanding. Highly recommend her…we def will be booking with her from now on!!”

“She was great with our dog, Reggie! I am so grateful to have her accept him for boarding on such a short notice. She messaged us frequently with pictures, videos and updates throughout the day! Definitely recommend her!”

“My dog Dakota loved staying with Tami! I was in town for the weekend for a family visit and I couldn’t keep Dakota with me during the time, but I still wanted her close to me. Tami texted me with updates and pictures every day and I could tell my dog was safe and comfortable with her. She did a really good job working with my dog and did everything to make Dakota feel at home. Will definitely use her in the future if I bring Dakota back and would highly recommend!”

“Joaquin was an amazing pet sitter. Excellent communication, passionate about dogs, and prompt timing. He even offered training on a new leash with Major which enhanced our walks by minimizing our pet from pulling so much. Joaquin and his lovely partner exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend using their services again. In addition he does offer pick up and drop off services along with baths as well. Top tier!!!!!”

“Our pups spent another weekend with Amy and Alex -- I kind of felt bad picking them up because I know they are so happy there! Trust both of them fully with our boys :-)”

“Amazing Dog Sitter! Candice is truly the best! From the moment we met her, we knew our dog was in great hands. She is clean, reliable, and incredibly thorough in her care. I especially appreciate the detailed daily reports she provides, it’s so reassuring to know how my pup’s day went. Her upbeat personality and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Candice is the one.”

“Tara takes great care of Brandy and sends pictures and/or videos that keeps us in touch with our pup. Brandy always looks so comfortable with Tara and Kevin, and their two dogs get along well with Brandy. We use Tara regularly and travel without worries!”
“Very excellent communication, put us at ease with allowing a meet up before bookkng. She is obviously a pro, allowing our girls to get comfortable in a new space before bringing in her dogs. She gave us daily updates with pictures while we were away. I know they enjoyed their vacation with Erin and her family!”

About: We were raising dogs before we had children. Siberian Huskies, Akitas, rescue dogs, and Icelandic Sheepdogs. There have been dogs in our home for over 50 years. Our pets are a part of the family and greet us each day with a licky kiss on the chin. Our grandchildren love to play with Spensa when they visit. Pet care is intentional and a part of our daily routine. With the morning coffee comes the morning run around the back yard. With my breakfast is the dogs breakfast. If we go for a walk, so does the dog! We all just do life together as we can! We have a fenced yard allowing plenty of room to run and play. Our dog is very friendly and is very comfortable being around other dogs. She is current on all vacinations. Should you required you dog to be crated for any reason, we would be more than willing to comply to your requests.
“I could not have asked for a better sitter!! This was the first time we have used a sitter. Max and I were both very nervous. Grace was so sweet and patient with us!! She sent updates and pictures and was very quick to respond if I had questions! We will definitely be seeing Ms. Grace again!”

“Evil and Fritz were terrific! They were very understanding of our dog’s behavior and needs. They sent photos and messages regularly. Ziggy looked so well cared for and content with them. I’m so glad we found such good caregivers.”


About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of experience working in the veterinary field, so your dog’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m confident caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including those who may need extra patience, structure, or special attention. My fiancé has 15+ years of professional dog training experience, which means your pup benefits from consistent handling, basic training reinforcement, and a calm, structured environment while in our care. We work as a team to make sure every dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for. We’re an outdoors-loving household with dogs of our own, so we truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. Our property includes plenty of safely fenced-in space for supervised play, exercise, and enrichment—perfect for dogs who love to run, explore, and burn off energy. Whether your dog enjoys active playtime, peaceful walks, or just relaxing with people who genuinely love dogs, we’re happy to tailor care to their individual needs. You can feel confident knowing your pup will be treated like one of our own while you’re away. I work full-time Mon-Fri from 8am–4pm, and my fiancé is home during the day, only leaving occasionally for training sessions. Dogs are let outside multiple times throughout the day for potty breaks, play, and exercise. We’re happy to feed, administer medications, and follow special care routines as needed to match your dog’s normal schedule. All pet sitting is done in our home only, allowing us to closely monitor every dog in our care. Our backyard is fully enclosed with a 6-foot privacy fence, providing a secure space for supervised play and exercise. The front yard is enclosed with a 4-foot fence and is typically used when my daughter is outside or for small dogs who prefer calmer, smaller play groups. Our home sits on approximately 1.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to stretch their legs while remaining in a controlled, safe environment. Dogs are always supervised outdoors, and we carefully separate playtime when needed to ensure every pup feels comfortable and secure.
“From the minute Sunshine walked into Danielle’s home she was greeted with love. I was so happy to see how she immediately took to this new environment. She had that “this is gong to be fun” wag to her tail and expression on her cute face. Danielle provided pictures and Sunshine was full of Sunshine.”

“I can't recommend Shelby enough! She came to my house to meet my cat prior to the booking. While away, she sent me updates and photos and was 10/10 for communication. My house was clean as I left it and my cat seems happy. I'll definitely book with Shelby again for future needs.”

“Amber is fabulous as always! I've had Amber watch my senior cat numerous times over the past year. Extremely dependable. I appreciate her greatly and would highly recommend her.”

“Cynthia went above and beyond. Our cats were in good care while my husband and I were away. Cynthia cared for them as if they were her own. She is very knowledgeable and kind. I fully recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”


“This was the first time I asked Gretchen to care of my senior cats. They seemed very well cared for and the instructions I left were carefully followed. Everything was neat and clean and I would not only ask Gretchen to come again, I would recommend her to anyone wanting a caring pet sitter. Thank you Gretchen.”

“Paulina was great! She was very communicative and sent photos every day. She went above and beyond to get alternative transportation during bad weather to make sure my cat didn’t miss a meal. I felt at ease knowing someone reliable was taking care of my cat, and my cat clearly enjoyed her visits!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, and have had the opportunity to take care of my neighbors and friends pets for about 10 years, since I was 12. I love walking dogs and giving pets the love they so deserve! I am currently in Physical Therapy school at Elon University, and my hours in class are usually 8-4 M-F. My evenings and weekends are free, I am starting Rover to earn some money to help me get through my PT program! Hanging out with your pets will also serve as a great stress reliever for me too! I live on the third floor in my apartment complex, so preferably I will come to you and allow the pets to stay in their own comfortable environment! However, I do not have any pets in my apartment right now, making it easier to board them if needed. I also live across from a park that is perfect for walking dogs if they need more space!

About: I have had cats my whole life. I remember the first time I cleaned a litter box I was 7 and my mom told me it was like scooping for treasure , weird way of phrasing it but it worked lol. I live in a household full of cat lovers and all together we have 13 so it’s safe to say I’m definitely comfortable around cats and have seen pant different kitty personality’s. I also have many years of experience administrating medications.
About: I am a professor at a local university with a flexible schedule who loves hanging out with all sorts of pets. I am professional, punctual, and playful. My wife, Diana, works from home so between the two of us there’s pretty much always someone home hanging out with our doggie guests. We live on 4 acres, about half of which is fenced in for the doggos to run and play safely. We only crate if they are comfortable with that, and if no one is home. My teaching schedule allows me to be home a lot during the week and I am open most weekends. I am also pretty flexible to do drop ins and walks, as well as pickup/dropoff. My wife, Diana, works from home and helps with the pet care. Pretty much someone is always home so the pet guests normally hang out with us most of the day. I know every pet has their own personality so I like to get to know each pet individually and speak with their owners to come up with a care plan. We aim to create the same level of comfort here that your pet has at home. Our guests are part of the family while they are here.

“Heidi was very professional and friendly. The cats took to her right away and got a lot of love and attention. All directions were followed and pictures were given with updates. Would book again!”


About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my hands-on experience with cats at every stage of life, from playful kittens to senior cats needing gentle, attentive care. Growing up on a farm gave me daily experience reading animal behavior, understanding subtle changes, and responding calmly and confidently to their needs. I’m especially comfortable with shy, anxious, or independent cats who may need patience and a quiet approach to feel safe. I also have experience with young kittens, including bottle feeding and providing extra support during early development. I understand that cats thrive on routine, so I prioritize maintaining their feeding schedules, litter box cleanliness, and preferred environments exactly as they’re used to. Most importantly, I don’t just “check in” on cats — I take time to build trust at their pace, respect their space, and ensure they feel secure while you’re away. You’ll also receive reliable updates so you always know your cat is comfortable and cared for.
“Emmie: I’m so happy that you’ve looked after Brutus (I renamed him), for the last few days Rescue cats often don’t have a name and are just given one. Anyway, thanks so much, until next time.”

About: I love playing with and caring for animals. I know it’s hard to be there for your pet at all times, so I would love to help you with your needs. I love to play, walk, bathe, swim, and do pretty much whatever it is your animal needs. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes and breeds. If needed, I can administer medicines. I am available days , weeknights and weekends at all times. I have had my own dogs and other pets since I was 7 years old, so I am hoping that I can care for your pets the way that I have always cared for my own. Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding on a schedule, meds when needed, and plenty of playtime and snuggles built into my day. I plan my errands and social stuff around animals being let out, fed, and comfortable, so adding your pets into that rhythm feels really natural for me. When I’m in a pet’s home, I stick to their normal routine as closely as possible – same feeding schedule, walk times, and sleeping spots. I do regular check-ins for food, water, potty breaks, and meds if needed, and I always build in playtime and cuddles so they’re not just ‘being watched,’ they’re actually getting attention. I keep the home tidy, follow any house rules you leave, and send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away.
About: As a lifelong dog owner, I have a deep understanding of canine care and behavior. I also have over seven years of paid experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As a cat owner myself, I am equally comfortable caring for feline companions, and I am a trusted, go-to pet sitter for family and friends. I have a flexible schedule and am available for daytime, evening, and weekend pet care as needed. My fiance will also be helping to fill any gaps my schedule leaves. I offer flexible availability and strive to accommodate each client's scheduling needs. I live in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood and have experience caring for dogs and cats in a variety of settings. Whether care is provided in my home or yours, I am committed to ensuring your pet remains comfortable, safe, and well cared for.

“My mini poodle has separation anxiety and Sarah and her husband took great of him. I could tell by the picture of him he was relaxed and felt safe. I can't wait to use Sarah again and recommend that others do the same if you are seeking a warm and kind environment for your babies!”

About: I have never gone a year of my life without owning at least 2 dogs. I have always trained them well with leash training, potty, and crate training. I now am training a service dog (with the help of some classes) and am learning so much more about a dog’s health, needs, and how to learn from them as much as they learn from us. I know that when I go out of town I want the best care for my dogs and I want to provide a good place for other dogs to stay as well. I am a full time online student at the moment so I am available all day everyday, with the exception of future appointments or meetings that will not take more than a few hours out of a day at a time. I am typically home watching over my own dogs at all hours of the day; I do work part time on the weekends though and am usually gone for 5-8 hours at a time onFridays-Sundays (depending on the week). I live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood which provides a standard sized tennis court, which we have basically turned into a play park for dogs! We all have contributed toys to leave at the tennis court and I LOVE brining my dog (and the doggie I am watching over) to the court to run freely for a while and play without worrying about other dogs or being on a leash. Because I have a larger dog (110 lbs; he is a gentle giant), I have a large crate and large bed as well! This will be great for any sized dog whether they are crate-trained or not :)
“This was our first booking with Tara for our senior dog. The initial meet-and-greet session went very well, and Tara's sweet little dogs were friendly with ours. Tara's large, fenced yard was a wonderful oasis. Tara's experience is obvious, and she sent us several text updates with pictures that put our minds at ease while we were traveling.”

“Thanks for taking care of Murdock for the weekend! I can tell he already wants to come back and hang out with the other pups. Looking forward to the next stay!”

About: DISCLAIMER * As of 10/26/2024 * If i cannot meet you and your pets before the start of the booking, i will not accept the booking. This has become a safety issue for me. I will no longer be able to accept verbal verification that your pet will be fine with a stranger entering the home. (Exceptions are small puppies) I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. My neighbor growing up had 4 cats, that I loved dearly! She was the first person who allowed me to watch her fur babies when she went on vacation! I've pet sat many times since then. Dogs big and small of all breeds from a little pug to a 100lb+ Rottweiler. I own a 85lb pit bull mix and a 10lb weenier dog. 🐶 They are my babies.💗 I can drop in anytime to check on your fur babies. Spend extra time with them. I do bathing, and walks also! If you need your fur babies to be crated, no problem! I will make sure their safety comes first. You can put your mind at ease knowing your pets will be taken care of! This is my full time job, I enjoy every second of it! So day or night I can always do a drop in visit or a walk! Your pets safety comes first! So during a meet and greet I will be going over a small list of questions to make sure I can take care of your fur baby to the best of my ability. With this I create a “pet profile” so when you need to rebook with me I’ve already got a reference to look back at. EXAMPLE; if your dog is good with other animals, or if there is a certain amount of food that needs to be given. These are just notes I make for myself, and so you can rest assured your fur baby is getting the best care!

We provide everything they need to feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide a safe, cozy environment for your dogs, giving you peace of mind knowing they are cared for, comfortable, and happy while boarding with us.
“Erin is very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up and I can tell she loves doggies! She stayed in contact with me throughout Milly's stay to let me know how she was doing! Large fenced in back yard for the pups to run and play! When I picked Milly up, I could tell she had a great time (even slept the three hours home)! I will definitely be using Erin in the future when we travel to Elon to visit my daughter and would recommend her to others staying in the area! Thank again Erin!!”

About: Hello furry friends, I have owned a couple of furry pets of my own and gained experience from walking, feeding, and caring for them as I have worked my way through college and my job. I love dogs, cats and any other animals as well. Being surrounded by furry friends genuinely makes me happier and I would love to provide my services to help other furry parents out. Please don't hesitate to reach out! I currently don't have any obligations as I am a free to walk any furry friend throughout any times of the day. Please reach out! As of now, I cannot make any accommodations for pet in-home boarding. I currently live in an apartment that doesn't allow pets but I am willing do client in-home pet sitting and pet walks.
About: What makes me special? Everything!!! A dog has always been a family member since I can remember. Thank God for loving parents who believed in bringing all kinds of pets in our home. We had birds, hamsters, and even the occasional snake or frog from the yard! There is a certain bond you get from a dog that you cannot get from any other animal, though...and I am lucky enough to have experienced that. My parents are proud owners of a rescue cat, and my sister's family has 3 kitties in their happy home!! They also have a sweet little gerbil that has somehow survived all of those felines! You can definitely tell we are a family of animal lovers!!! Since February 2017, my family "farm" has grown. I raised 21 babychicks from a day old...8 of which were ours, the rest for 2 other families...then we added 3 more, barely mature, hens and a rooster to our flock. It has definitely been a fun and wonderful learning experience! I have a wonderful rescued Pit, Buddy! We raised those chicks with Buddy around...so he is great with them! It's pretty amazing!!! (Oh...and just to clarify...Buddy will stay home during any visits/stays with your pet(s). That way you'll know your baby/babies are receiving the full attention they deserve!) Buddy is probably the most spoiled dog in the world because I make practically everything for him, from his shampoos (using essential oils) to his treats. He does get the dental treats at least once a day, but other than that...he's a gourmet doggie! I am a stay-at-home pup Mom...so on the 24 hour overnight visits with me, I'll only need to leave a couple of times during the day to take Buddy out to play, etc....he'll be with his Dad all night. Otherwise, I'm all yours, so if you need someone there to take your baby out literally every 2 hours or less, I can do it!! :-) I do Daycare a little different than Rover does...I only offer daycare in your home. I feel this is the best way to keep your pets in a place they feel super comfortable & with a sitter who will keep them happy, healthy and on their schedule completely. I will always keep you up to date on how your pet or pets are doing and will send you plenty of pictures if you wish! Extras services available: Baths with or w/o essential oils, Homemade bath soap with essential oils to-go (made with any requested oils from list), Doggie bag of treats to-go (made to your pet's dietary needs.) I have numerous flours available to meet any digestive issues. - No preservatives & human-grade (though some flavors may not suit human's taste buds!) By the way...I am no salesperson... & will never try to sell you any extras...these are just other things I offer if you are interested. Just feel free to ask if you are interested. :-)
“Cici loved going to Kelly's! She was wagging her tail and (annoyingly) jumping all over the place for daycare a few days after the meet and greet. She got to play with another dog about her size. Cici was ASLEEP a couple hours after I brought her home. She hardly ever settles on her own! I will definitely be bringing Cici back to Kelly's!”

About: I treat every pet like family—with patience, love, and lots of attention! What sets me apart is my experience with all types of dogs, from playful puppies to gentle adults. I understand how to care for dogs with different energy levels, and I’m comfortable following special routines and giving medications. I also focus on creating a calm, safe environment where your pet feels at home, whether we’re playing fetch or just enjoying cuddle time. You can count on me for dependable communication, consistent updates, and a lot of tail wags! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home! This allows me to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they need throughout the day. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just being nearby for comfort, I’m able to be present and responsive to their needs. My flexible schedule also means I can easily stick to your pet’s routine and provide a calm, consistent environment while you’re away. For boarding and doggy day care in my home, your pet will enjoy a safe, loving, and relaxed environment. While I don’t have a fenced yard yet, all outside time is fully supervised with leashed walks and potty breaks. Inside, they’ll have cozy spaces to rest, toys to play with, and plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I maintain a calm, pet-friendly space where routines are followed to help your pet feel comfortable and secure.

About: Customers will love that I love animals and they will be able to feel it! I have had many animals for long periods of my life. My Cagney ( a min pin) passed when she was 16. My Boo ( a black cat) passed also when she was 16. They were the best! My babies are always interesting - all their personalities make them all so different just like people, except that they love you unconditionally. They are always there no matter what! One of my all time favorites was a bulldog I used to pet sit. He was a funny slobbery clumsy little man. Sliming corners of my jeans and my shoes and running as hard as he could to me when I came thru the door and always ready to hang out and cuddle. Fun stuff!!!!! One customer had two cats that required lots of love visits! They loved to play and run all over when u visited. Mommy Suzanne loved pics so my son and I would get them playing and start taking pics. Sweet personalities. My weakness used to be taking in animals when I couldn't afford any more. I try not to do that now - instead I try to place strays that others bring me into other good homes. My brother took in one such cat that I took in as a rescue. Jazz brought him and my brothers wife a lot of happiness over the years! I am glad I took him in and that my brother added him to his household as a forever family!! The pics in my profile are: Thor the bulldog! Thor Thor bully Thor! Rocky the red min pin- big bark ! Little man!(he's older and whiter in this pic) Boomer is a good ole boy that my younger brother adopted. Just a super calm dog that you can only love. Mae Mae the cat - very RARE close encounter with her on my knee!!! #mustescapefromhumans The last one is good mix dog sitting in his front yard after I have taken him for a walk. His name is so different I can't remember how to say or spell it. Protective dog that I kept for my friend Val. Loves his regular walks. I currently work full time but work from home but and can work from your home if house sitting and/or visit when needed thruout the day(s). I follow your lead. Whatever you allow them to do i will allow and will restrict as you see fit. I go by your rules.
About: I absolutely adore all animals!! I have two dogs of my own and 5 in total at my family home, I am constantly around animals and helped raise them from puppies. I love walking and would be happy to play and exercise your pets or just love on them and give them cuddles whatever they need to be happy and healthy!! I’m happy to provide other house chores such as watering plants, and taking garbage out if need be😊 I have spare time in my day as I’m in school for animal management as a career. I will be actively learning more to care better for your animals! I am very open to meet and greets to make sure I’m a good fit for your family and I promise to treat your space with the upmost respect, I understand fully the amount of trust you need in someone to let them care for your baby and I am fully prepared to create a clean and happy environment for your pet to thrive. I hope to make you and your fur baby happy and comfortable:)
About: It’s your new “Step Dog Mom” I believe every pet deserves Dog-Mom level care—the kind where they’re treated like family, not just a client. With years of experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where your dog can truly relax. I’m extremely patient and gentle, whether I’m bonding with an anxious rescue, entertaining an energetic puppy, or tending to the needs of a sweet senior. I pay close attention to every detail, from their feeding schedule to their favorite belly rub spot, and I’m skilled at reading body language to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I provide regular updates, cute photos, and even fun paw report cards so you always know how your fur-baby is doing. Life can be unpredictable, and I do my best to be flexible and understanding when schedules shift. Most of all, I love building connections with each pet I care for—because to me, they’re not “just pets,” they’re family. 🐾 Im available Thursday to Sunday. On Thursday and Friday only I’m available after 5:30pm (due to me having a full time job from home). Saturday and Sunday I’m available all day 🙂 For any Drop-In visits or Walks I do require a complementary meet and greet before booking to ensure your pet is comfortable with me and their “home space” ❤️ Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first in your home. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs before each visit. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as given, and always make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, calm environment. I respect your space—leaving your home just as I found it—and keep doors locked, alarms set, and your pet safely indoors or secured outside as requested. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to body language, especially with shy or anxious pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I am currently getting my animal care degree at acc and there i have learned many skills such as animal husbandry , basic animal health care , animal handling. I am also fear free certified , can preform cat and dog cpr and can administer oral medications as well as administer fluids and injections. I am currently interning at Liberty acres which is a animal rescue/zoo and take care of many animals some including reptiles,birds,equine,livestock and foxes. I am currently working part time usually nights so I would be able to do drop ins in the morning before work or mid day and after work as well. On my days off I could do any time :) The specific tasks and level of care provided depend on the individual needs of the pet and the services offered, but generally include feeding, grooming, exercising, monitoring health, and providing companionship.
About: I love playing with and caring for animals. I know it’s hard to be there for your pet at all times, so I would love to help you with your needs. I love to play, walk, bathe, swim, and do pretty much whatever it is your animal needs. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes and breeds. If needed, I can administer medicines. I am available days , weeknights and weekends at all times. I have had my own dogs and other pets since I was 7 years old, so I am hoping that I can care for your pets the way that I have always cared for my own. Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding on a schedule, meds when needed, and plenty of playtime and snuggles built into my day. I plan my errands and social stuff around animals being let out, fed, and comfortable, so adding your pets into that rhythm feels really natural for me. When I’m in a pet’s home, I stick to their normal routine as closely as possible – same feeding schedule, walk times, and sleeping spots. I do regular check-ins for food, water, potty breaks, and meds if needed, and I always build in playtime and cuddles so they’re not just ‘being watched,’ they’re actually getting attention. I keep the home tidy, follow any house rules you leave, and send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away.
About: Current dog mom of 2 and love to care for all animals! I’ve always grown up with a dog in the home and I began my petsitting journey at age 13 when I began petsitting for my neighbors. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, and fish. I’ve cared for dogs with extra needs (blind, anxiety, behavioral issues, etc.) and am comfortable administering medicine. I’ve watched up to 6 dogs in one household and am comfortable if more are involved! I volunteered at my local animal shelter throughout college working to socialize cats and dogs to help find their forever home! I have a large fenced in yard and live close to walking trails. My dogs are very friendly and love to be social with other, well-behaved dogs! I currently work from home 3 days a week and can offer drop-in visits before 8am or after 5pm. I’m flexible to do one time drop ins or regular scheduled drop ins! In my home, I make sure to keep your pup in a normal routine while you are away. I’m respectful and want you to come home to pup(s) just how you left them!
“Karrington was great with my dog Kahne. I had to make a last minute request and she helped me out a ton. My dog is shy and she was great with him! Thank you so much for taking care of my pet!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10, as the neighborhood dog sitter! I worked as an animal specialist at PetSmart throughout college and have a great love for all animals. As a dog mom of 3 rescues I totally understand in importance in showing everyone love, especially those who struggle with separation anxiety. I am extremely patient and love giving amazing belly rubs and really long walks! I am currently a stay at home dog mom so picking up mid day check ins is fairly easy for me! I have three rescue dogs of my own and truly understand the importance of a mid day potty/play break! I will take care of your pet like they are my own! If that means your dog has to sleep under the blanket they are more the welcome to keep my feet warm!

“Daysi was fantastic! Every day and for every walk I received a nice summary of their time together and plenty of pictures. I trusted her walking nala and knew she was in great hands the entire time and nala loved being with her! I will definitely use daysi again in the future and look forward to having her watch my fur baby!”

“Rosko loves walking with Emmie! She's got a lovely calm energy which balances Rosko's enthusiasm, and they're happy to see each other. She's also great at communication, letting me know what's happening and being clear about availability. Five wags!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life, starting from childhood. Over the years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, trusted to give their pets the same love and attention they get at home. About 15 years ago, I brought home my first cat and have been completely smitten with felines ever since! I have experience giving basic medications to pets and am comfortable caring for animals with special needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I have over 15 years of experience with bearded dragons and mild experience with many other animals—so I’m happy to watch reptiles, small pets, and more. No matter the species, I’m dedicated to keeping them safe, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. I have open availability for dog walks and any pet drop-ins, so I can work around your pet’s routine—morning, afternoon, or evening. Whether you need a last-minute walk, regular visits, or a quick drop-in while you’re away, I’m always happy to make it happen! I care for pets in their own home so they can stay safe, happy, and comfortable in their familiar space. I follow your routine for walks, feedings, clean-ups, and medications, making sure they get plenty of love, play, and attention. Safety is always first—secure leashes, closed gates, and supervised walks—so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands.

“Very satisfactory stay! Ross and Sarah cared for my big dog who had lots of separation anxiety, working with her and accommodating her fears. They were kind and understanding - and sent lots of photos to reassure me! I'll definitely use them again!”

“Scott and Ellen have been amazing with Kaiser. They kept me updated eveyday with how Kaiser’s stay was going and sent pictures of them playing together and going for walks. They are the best!”

“She was great with our dog, Reggie! I am so grateful to have her accept him for boarding on such a short notice. She messaged us frequently with pictures, videos and updates throughout the day! Definitely recommend her!”

“Joaquin was an amazing pet sitter. Excellent communication, passionate about dogs, and prompt timing. He even offered training on a new leash with Major which enhanced our walks by minimizing our pet from pulling so much. Joaquin and his lovely partner exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend using their services again. In addition he does offer pick up and drop off services along with baths as well. Top tier!!!!!”

“Our pups spent another weekend with Amy and Alex -- I kind of felt bad picking them up because I know they are so happy there! Trust both of them fully with our boys :-)”

“Tara takes great care of Brandy and sends pictures and/or videos that keeps us in touch with our pup. Brandy always looks so comfortable with Tara and Kevin, and their two dogs get along well with Brandy. We use Tara regularly and travel without worries!”
“I could not have asked for a better sitter!! This was the first time we have used a sitter. Max and I were both very nervous. Grace was so sweet and patient with us!! She sent updates and pictures and was very quick to respond if I had questions! We will definitely be seeing Ms. Grace again!”

“Evil and Fritz were terrific! They were very understanding of our dog’s behavior and needs. They sent photos and messages regularly. Ziggy looked so well cared for and content with them. I’m so glad we found such good caregivers.”


About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of experience working in the veterinary field, so your dog’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m confident caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including those who may need extra patience, structure, or special attention. My fiancé has 15+ years of professional dog training experience, which means your pup benefits from consistent handling, basic training reinforcement, and a calm, structured environment while in our care. We work as a team to make sure every dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for. We’re an outdoors-loving household with dogs of our own, so we truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. Our property includes plenty of safely fenced-in space for supervised play, exercise, and enrichment—perfect for dogs who love to run, explore, and burn off energy. Whether your dog enjoys active playtime, peaceful walks, or just relaxing with people who genuinely love dogs, we’re happy to tailor care to their individual needs. You can feel confident knowing your pup will be treated like one of our own while you’re away. I work full-time Mon-Fri from 8am–4pm, and my fiancé is home during the day, only leaving occasionally for training sessions. Dogs are let outside multiple times throughout the day for potty breaks, play, and exercise. We’re happy to feed, administer medications, and follow special care routines as needed to match your dog’s normal schedule. All pet sitting is done in our home only, allowing us to closely monitor every dog in our care. Our backyard is fully enclosed with a 6-foot privacy fence, providing a secure space for supervised play and exercise. The front yard is enclosed with a 4-foot fence and is typically used when my daughter is outside or for small dogs who prefer calmer, smaller play groups. Our home sits on approximately 1.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to stretch their legs while remaining in a controlled, safe environment. Dogs are always supervised outdoors, and we carefully separate playtime when needed to ensure every pup feels comfortable and secure.
“From the minute Sunshine walked into Danielle’s home she was greeted with love. I was so happy to see how she immediately took to this new environment. She had that “this is gong to be fun” wag to her tail and expression on her cute face. Danielle provided pictures and Sunshine was full of Sunshine.”

“My dog Bella stayed for around 8 days and I couldn’t have trusted someone else more. Kenan was always ready to send me pictures and videos to not make me worry. It was our first time with them and we will definitely be reaching out again whenever we need. Bella got to play with other dogs and make many friends. I definitely recommend them!”
“Ro is amazing. The dogs love her and her family. They have a big fenced in back yard with lots of shade. They get a lot of love, and are spoiled when they get back home.”

“Vanessa and her family took great care of our dog. She provided pictures and updates and responds quickly to txt messages. The backyard is fenced. Very pleasant experience! Would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, safe environment for pet care!! 🐾🐾 NL”

“We are repeat clients and once again are super happy with the great care Sarah provided for our dog during the 5 day stay. She takes care of him as if he's part of her family. So thankful we found Sarah through Rover giving us huge peace of mind when we're away!”
