“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!”

“My sister-in-law and I left our dogs with her for two days. When we picked them up they were happy and got to meet new friend dogs and a cat. Anna has dogs of her own and cat and all got together to be one happy family. Our dogs must have had some fun together because they were tired when we got home. Was a great experience.”

“Grace was amazing with my three dogs, two of which are disabled. They are my world and she was amazing. Highly highly recommend Grace. Use her if you need someone to watch your dogs. Better than any kennel. Beautiful property and I trust her. Will use again. You should too.”

“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!”

“Hayley was amazing with our pups! She loved them as if they were her own and they were so happy in every picture we received! She was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. We already booked our next stay with Hayley!”

“She took amazing care of my dog over the span of two days, sent me pictures regularly of her, and I could tell give her plenty of love. When I dropped her off the bed in her kennel was pretty ripped up and the stuffing was everywhere. When I got it back, she had sewn it shut and put all the stuffing back in. Going above and beyond would be an understatement. Highly recommend.”

“Kenan and Kayleigh were great. They clearly love dogs, and they have such a great space. Our dogs live on about 45 acres of woods and fields, so Kenan’s place feels right at home to them. We were really comfortable leaving our pups with them, and our guys were very happy when we returned. Clearly they had a good time! We’ll be leaving our dog pals with them in the future!”

“From the moment my doggo met Joaquin, she liked him… And frankly, he has great vibes! Knowing she was so comfortable made it so I didn’t worry about her one bit while I was out of town. 5/5 would recommend booking and we will definitely be back!”

“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.”


“Bronson, our 120lb fur baby, loves to stay with Britteny. She has watched him many times and each time we’re updated with pictures and daily activities. Britteny is always our first choice when Bronson needs a sitter.”

“Our dog’s stay with Lauren was wonderful. Her place had space for him to explore each evening, he had other dogs to socialize with, and she was able to spend plenty of time playing!”

“Candice was absolutely wonderful with my puppy Blanca. She sent daily reports and lots pictures. She kept Blanca on the schedule she was on.. She asked before she done anything with her. I would definitely book in the future.”

“Zydae did a great job with Gabby. She stayed in touch and provided regular updates and photos. I had a delay on my way back into town and was so appreciative when Zydae graciously flexed the pickup time to be a bit later than we'd agreed upon originally.”

“Bagel was well taken care of and I received a message and picture daily of how he was doing. They were always quick to respond to messages and approached taking care of bagel with kindness.”


“Edgar was such a blessing for me and my husband he did such an amazing job with Jonah. He was very professional and locked in with the care and well being of Jonah stay . We greatly appreciated him and his support and family. Looking forward to having Edgar taken care of Jonah and building a friendship and bond for the both of us . God bless you and I know God blessed you with an amazing gift to care for dogs , keep doing what you love and is great at .”

“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!”

“Debbie did an amazing job with our Shih Tzu, Major!! She sent us several pictures and videos of Major and kept us updated on how he was doing throughout his stay with her. He is very kind and caring with her furry clients.🐶 We highly recommend her and are already planning to to book her again soon.”

“Grace was amazing with our two cats! We received multiple daily updates, and she was so good at encouraging them to socialize with her. Our request was a bit last minute, and our boy had recently had some surgery, but Grace was extremely flexible and did a great job administering all of his medication as our vet prescribed. We can’t say enough amazing things about Grace! Will definitely be rebooking with her again.”

“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.”

“We love Lauren and we honestly would not survive without her help every week. She has great communication, is great with her scheduling/timing, and is the best with helping the pups get all their energy out, I also love that she always sends pictures them. They absolutely adore her!! I would definitely recommend her to anyone with fur babies!”

“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: I have grown up with dogs, and have several of my own now. I would love to extend my care and services to others. I will treat your furry babies like my own! I work during the day, but am determined to make your pet's routine fit my own! Would be more than happy to drop by a couple of times a day to check in with them. I care for every pet as if they were my own child, showering them with love and undivided attention. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits to fit your schedule!
“Always the best!!! We have used Hailey and Destini a few years now and they are absolutely amazing with our cats. ( and they were awesome with our dog when we had him) highly recommend”

About: We’re a dependable husband-and-wife team, so your pets get double the love, attention, and care. As owners of two doodles ourselves, we understand the energy, routine, and patience dogs need at every stage of life. We’ve cared for cats, senior dogs, and puppies, including training our own, so we’re comfortable with everything from playful zoomies to slower-paced senior care. Our goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our routine because we already have two dogs of our own and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Since we both work full time during the week, we focus on providing dependable weekend drop-in visits where pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, feeding if needed, and lots of care while you’re away. For drop-ins and walks, we focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During visits, we provide potty breaks, fresh water, feeding if needed, playtime, and plenty of attention. Walks are tailored to each dog’s energy level and personality, whether they enjoy a relaxed stroll or a more active walk. We also make sure owners stay updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
“Gemma did a phenomenal job taking care of our cat Bean! She was thorough and prompt. I felt like Bean was in good hands immediately and loved the pictures Gemma would send. We definitely want to hire Gemma again in the future!”

“Grace was amazing! Highly recommend, my dog had other dogs to play with he’s a big puppy so he loves dogs. She was communicating perfectly and was ready to go upon drop off and pick up. Looking forward to another day with Grace when back in the area.”

“A great first experience using Rover! Our Finley had the best time, playing and being loved on. What a warm and inviting family, sent lots of pictures and videos. They even gave our pup a bath after they got into some mud. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Thank you!! ❤️”

“Zydae was wonderful from messaging to the Meet & Greet to the doggie daycare services. Our pup is a bit shy at first (stranger danger), so when she wagged her tail with Zydae and saw how they engaged together, we felt good about it :) As first time parents, Zydae communicated well throughout the day and sent photos and videos, which brought us so much joy since it was Ryn’s first drop-off ever! Huge plus that she has other pups to play with too. Would definitely book again. Thank you Zydae ?”

“It was my pup’s first time with a sitter. He’s usually nervous around new people. But not here, he was peppy and playful coming home. The next time going he ran right in like a reunion with old pals. Very impressed.”

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.
“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: 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.
“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.”

About: I’m a registered nurse and lifelong dog owner who loves caring for pets in my free time 🐾❤️. With years of experience in drop-ins, walks, and giving medications, I’m confident your furry friend will be in safe, loving hands. I work three days a week as an RN, and the rest of my time is spent relaxing with animals, painting, drawing, and photographing nature 📸 My clients describe me as trustworthy, respectful, and detail-oriented. I follow your pet’s routine exactly and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away.
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. :-)

About: I treat every dog like family—lots of love, attention, and a routine that keeps them comfortable and stress-free. I have experience with both energetic puppies (helping reinforce potty training, basic commands, and structure) and senior dogs who need a little extra care, patience, and sometimes medication support. I’m very attentive and pick up quickly on each dog’s personality and needs. Plus, I keep you updated with pictures and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing! Pet care is intentionally built into my daily and weekly schedule so I can provide consistent, high-quality attention without ever feeling rushed. I block off time specifically for each pet to ensure they receive the care, exercise, and interaction they’re used to at home. My routine is designed to prioritize reliability, flexibility, and a calm, structured environment—so your dog experiences stability, not disruption. I provide care that keeps your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible, whether in my home or yours. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, including medications. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets receive plenty of attention, supervised care, and a calm routine. I’m mindful of each dog’s personality—whether they need more activity, structure, or a quieter setting. My goal is always the same: your pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Your dogs are family to me! I’ve been caring for pups for 15 years, with a focus on daily walks, trips to the dog park, and gentle baths. I’m experienced in training young pups, as well as providing specialized care for senior dogs. I always follow your instructions closely, and I’m happy to give any medical care your pup needs. Every dog gets the same love and attention I give my own! I'm currently working from home, which gives me plenty of time to provide your fur babies with lots of attention, love, and care throughout the day! My own Yorkie, JoBella, and I enjoy several walks each day, along with plenty of playtime—especially a good game of fetch, which is one of our favorite activities. I'll care for your dog as if they were part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. When I'm caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a cozy, safe space. JoBella’s already super welcoming, so they’ll feel at home in no time! I keep a consistent routine with walks, play, meals rest and any special care instructions you have. In either case, I stay in touch with updates and pictures so you always know how your pup is doing!
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.
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!
“Our experience with Kenan was just what we needed. We have a highly anxious rescue boy with severe separation anxiety, yet we knew from the moment we met Kenan that our dog was in good hands. Kenan greeted Hank (our dog) by sitting on the ground and allowing Hank to see that he was safe. Kenan also took Hank and his new friend, Paco (another dog) on a long walk on their beautiful farm, and knew when it was time to provide some down time. Hank came home happy and exhausted, and he will undoubtedly be returning to the farm!”

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 :)

“Lindsay is great! She came to meet Cypress first, and they hit it off. Now Cypress gets super excited to see her and didn't even want her to go home. Super appreciate that she can come walk her while I'm working.”


“Daysi is amazing! We hired her to walk/check up on our two big dogs in the morning and afternoon while we were out of town one day. She sent lots of pictures showing everything they did on each visit and was able to walk them both together and make sure they had time to eat since we were gone all day. We will definitely be hiring her again for future short trips!”

About: My mom was a vet tech growing up and I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life. I was raised in a home where every dog deserves a chance, no matter their health or their behavior and it has carried over with me into adulthood. Whether it is doggy day care, house sitting, or in-home boarding, I have experience in doing them all. I am local to parks, I have a fenced-in backyard with a covered back deck that has a fan for cooling off. I can tend to whatever the dogs may need energy level wise. I also enjoy walking all dogs when I exercise. Once play time is over, we have plenty of space in the house for relaxing and sleeping. I am home most of the time, so the dogs won’t be stuck alone for hours on end. I work from home, so there will not be much of a time that the dogs will be alone. I can cater to whatever the dogs need. I do prefer a crate trained dog for if/when I do leave the home for safety for both my home and the dog itself. The fenced in back yard is a huge hit for the dogs when I dog sit them. I am able to separate dogs if I have multiple, if needed. We have plenty of trails to walk, a local park with a walking track. Dogs are allowed on furniture. I have plenty of bones, toys, blankets, and anything to make your dog happy and comfortable.
About: I have had pets all my life and love taking care of them, I’ve also dog sat and taken dogs out before for people close to me I just graduated and am looking for ways to get out of the house and make some extra money, I love to just get out of the house for even just an hour of the day! I love walking pets or letting them outside in the yard, I also like to play fetch with them and of course relaxing is good also!

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’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. My mother was a dog sitter when I was younger so that has made me comfortable around most if not all breeds. I would help her with the feeding while she took them out. Now that I’m older I have two huskies and a cat. My goal is to eventually have farm animals, mainly as pets 😂. So, my love for animals is quite enormous. I do currently work from home M-F. I can give potty breaks every 2-3 hours while working. Since I work from home your pet would have to be well mannered while I’m on the phone. They of course will be welcomed to lay around me while working and will be loved on the entire time 😊.

“Grace was an absolute lifesaver! Bella had a previous walker booked through the rover website, however after leaving my dog in the house alone for hours I immediately began to seek a new replacement. Grace was able to come the same night and walk Bella. I was highly impressed and definitely recommend her to others.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs & cats since I was kid and will care for your fur baby like they are my own! I’m an avid walker/runner and happy to help you and your pup in whatever way you need—drop in visits or walks. I have cared for senior pups before and am happy to care for your’s if that’s what you need! I’m a full time PhD student doing research from home with a flexible schedule. I’m hoping to help someone walk their dog or stop in to play with their cat from time to time or on a regular basis if we’re a good fit! Mornings & evenings are generally easiest for me to come by and go on walks, but I can be flexible midday depending on my schedule. I’m currently a Cat Mom who loves to have play & cuddle time when I’m not working (or even sometimes when I am). I don’t have a dog but would take them out regularly on my daily walks! I’m also happy to drop in and visit your pup—for playtime, snuggles, or just some companion time!
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.
“Gemma was absolutely flawless. All my animals, who are quite timid, trusted her immediately! Will definitely use her again I knew if she was there everyone was in good hands!! I really appreciate her and her kindness”

“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!”

“Grace was amazing with my three dogs, two of which are disabled. They are my world and she was amazing. Highly highly recommend Grace. Use her if you need someone to watch your dogs. Better than any kennel. Beautiful property and I trust her. Will use again. You should too.”

“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!”

“Hayley was amazing with our pups! She loved them as if they were her own and they were so happy in every picture we received! She was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. We already booked our next stay with Hayley!”

“She took amazing care of my dog over the span of two days, sent me pictures regularly of her, and I could tell give her plenty of love. When I dropped her off the bed in her kennel was pretty ripped up and the stuffing was everywhere. When I got it back, she had sewn it shut and put all the stuffing back in. Going above and beyond would be an understatement. Highly recommend.”

“Kenan and Kayleigh were great. They clearly love dogs, and they have such a great space. Our dogs live on about 45 acres of woods and fields, so Kenan’s place feels right at home to them. We were really comfortable leaving our pups with them, and our guys were very happy when we returned. Clearly they had a good time! We’ll be leaving our dog pals with them in the future!”

“From the moment my doggo met Joaquin, she liked him… And frankly, he has great vibes! Knowing she was so comfortable made it so I didn’t worry about her one bit while I was out of town. 5/5 would recommend booking and we will definitely be back!”


“Bronson, our 120lb fur baby, loves to stay with Britteny. She has watched him many times and each time we’re updated with pictures and daily activities. Britteny is always our first choice when Bronson needs a sitter.”

“Our dog’s stay with Lauren was wonderful. Her place had space for him to explore each evening, he had other dogs to socialize with, and she was able to spend plenty of time playing!”

“Zydae did a great job with Gabby. She stayed in touch and provided regular updates and photos. I had a delay on my way back into town and was so appreciative when Zydae graciously flexed the pickup time to be a bit later than we'd agreed upon originally.”

“This was our first time using Tara as a sitter and we were very happy with the experience. Tara was professional and clearly knew how to care for and interact with Brandy who is a little timid around new people. Tara worked with Brandy to get her comfortable with a new routine, and showed resourcefulness in getting Brandy to take her meds and be comfortable eating in a new environment. Tara sent us pictures and kept us informed about Brandy's progress. Brandy clearly felt comfortable and content under Tara's care. We will definitely be having Tara care for Brandy again!”
“Evie & Fritz were so amazing with Lola. They sent me photos throughout each day and gave me updates on how she was doing! She got to play with lots of other dogs who were in doggy daycare with them and snuggled up with them at night! I felt so good knowing my girl was being so loved and well cared for! You guys are the best!!”


“Judy did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet mini schnauzer. She is trustworthy and gives plenty of updates with pictures. Ever since we moved to this area, we have had a hard time finding someone who we can completely trust to keep our baby while we are gone, but Judy checks off all of our boxes! Judy should be your go to ESPECIALLY if you have a schnauzer. Our baby came home happy and tired. Thank you for everything Judy!”

“Ro was amazing! She took great care of our 3 doggo’s so we could do a quick weekend getaway. She sent updates and pics regularly and we knew they were in good hands! We would definitely use her again!!!”

“Alex was wonderful. Marvel seems so happy with him! He was a great communicator and offered me a lot of flexibility when my travel plans changed a little. Highly recommend and will be using him again next time I’m in town!”

“Tina was such a great sitter for Modelo. She kept me updated the whole time she had him and I knew he was really having a great time. I definitely plan to use her in the future”

“Amy and John took great care of Ziggy. They sent photos and updates daily and it looked like Ziggy was living his best life at a 5 star retreat, making new friends and keeping busy.”
