“Absolutely THE BEST pet sitter we have ever had! James (& Aimee) kept our fur babies, one dog and one cat, and we did not worry one time our whole trip. They sent several pictures and updates, & we could tell they were loved and protected. Our dog was so happy when we arrived; she had to show us her “vacation” house! ?She bonded with their girls also. Our cat was well-behaved but anxious around new animals, so James (& Aimee) accommodated him by giving him his own playroom! He was thrilled to sit in the window and watch the birds & butterflies. Our pet heroes adhered to both animals’ strict diet and feeding instructions ordered by our vet. Overall, everyone had a wonderful trip, and we will use them again. If we could give James (& Aimee) 10 stars, we would. We highly recommend them!”


“Great Experience! While watching my puppy over the weekend they provided consistent updates the entire time. I really appreciated the regular photos and messages that gave a peace of mind knowing my puppy was doing well while I was away. My puppy also got a ton of playtime and attention!”

“Wow! We lucked out choosing Emily as a sitter! She was fantastic. We needed a sitter at the last minute and Emily responded right away. We enjoyed meeting her and her sweet family. Our pup walked right in the door without a look back, like she was home. It was a blessing to be able to leave feeling like our pup was going to be fine. Emily sent messages and pics to reassure us that our old girl was settling in that evening and doing well the next morning. If we come back to this area again I would definitely ask for Emily. I’d highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much!”

“Mary was so wonderful with my boys! They’re usually really nervous around new people, but she made them feel so comfortable and took really good care of them. Mary sent me regular pictures and updates which I really appreciated. They seemed to have a great time at her place and got along well with her sweet dogs.”

“Autumn was awesome with our puppy chase. She kept us updated with pictures, what he ate and if he went potty. He came home totally happy and tired. Will use her again when we come up to North Carolina. ♥️”


“Pisco had a wonderful time with Alexis. Long walks, regular attention, and a nice place to relax. We appreciated her regular stream of photos. Highly recommend Alexis. We'll use her again.”

“Sharon is a loving and considerate companion that kept our elderly dog Kuma happy and healthy while we were away. Her wonderful attention to his daily needs was outstanding. Kuma enjoyed every minute of the warm and loving care Sharon gave to him everyday. The pictures and videos showed how he loved Sharon and how happy he was. Sharon would be an excellent pet sitter for your pets and we would highly recommend her services.”

“Maria was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable leaving my sweet Joey overnight. Great communication and updates with photos throughout his stay. I would recommend Maria to care for your best friends and will definitely be back! Joey can be a handful and Maria made me feel that he was so welcome! Thank you!!”

“Caitlin was an amazing sitter for my little Bean. It was my first time having a sitter for my dog. By day two of day care, Bean was as excited to see her as she was to come home at the end of the day. She sent pics and gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful I found her.”

“Tia is awesome! My pup’s first overnight and day camp went great. She sent lots of cute pics and the sweetest little write-up of how his stay went. I felt so comfortable leaving my little guy with her, especially after getting to meet the other dogs and seeing how calm and loving she was in her interactions with all of them. We are so grateful that our dog has a safe and nurturing place to socialize, play, and tire himself out! We will definitely be back and he can’t wait 😊”

About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
“If I could give 10 Stars, I would!!! Megan is the best…period. She communicates very well, my dog adores her, she’s diligent about bringing him outside for exercise, and she’s been unbelievably flexible! I will use her again and again and again!!”

“Carrie G. does a WONDERFUL job! Our dog was having so much fun we don't think she wanted to leave. Her home and fenced in year is a very dog friendly and safe place. Our dog was treated like family.”

“Pamela was just what we needed for our senior lab. She provided wonderful care for over night boarding. We received frequent communication and the whole process was very smooth. Our pup enjoyed her stay and we would gladly use Pamela again”


“Amanda was wonderful! She was very kind and we felt very safe leaving D’Koda with her. We could tell she really loves animals. Her dog Chloe was the sweetest and cutest little baby. They both did there best to keep our dog who has separation anxiety distracted/entertained while we were gone. This was our first time using a dog sitter and Rover. We highly recommend Amanda and we will definitely contact her again next time we need a dog sitter in this area.”

“Rebekkah did drop by visits for my two cats while I was out of town and was great! She was responsive, caring and took care of all their needs. I would definitely book Rebekkah again and would highly recommend her.”


“I ended up needing a short-notice, “panic” cat check-in option from Rover before a 10-day trip. Lillie responded and communicated promptly. Her response saved my trip, She did a pre-trip visit to check out my 5 fuzzies, then dealt well with them for several food and water refill and social interaction visits. When I need cat sitting services again, I will be going back to Lillie.”
“My first experience with Rover was made even more pleasant having Cassie care for my fur babies, Smudge and Tulsi. She arrived on time, sent adorable pictures, and even coaxed them to play with her and their toys. Cassie gave me peace of mind while I was away and I did not worry about my pets at all. I did still miss them but having new pictures each day of them and their activities made it a little bit easier. 🌸🐾 Sienna”


“Erica is wonderful! Such a sweet spirit working with our animals. She’s punctual, thoughtful, and works with your needs. Will definitely continue to use her services for our fur babies. 🥰”
“I couldn’t have asked for someone better!! Aj did such a fantastic job with our 3 cats. She was always sending the cutest updates and pictures when she dropped in. She made sure they got in lots of play time on her visits and was always on top of the food, water and litter boxes.”

“Debbie is the best pet sitter I have ever, ever had. She is a fantastic communicator. She not only texts me pictures and updates, but she leaves a detailed note about each visit. She is kind and caring. Spends time with each animal petting and brushing. She made sure she had eyes on my scaredy-cat kitty so she could see he was safe at each visit. I loved that. I knew he would hide but it made me feel so much better that she looked for him. I had a friend taking care of my cats before and they didn’t realize that my cat had locked himself in my bedroom. He was locked in there for days without anyone knowing. Debbie made sure that would never happen. I am lucky to have found her here and will definitely be using her moving forward!!! Thank you Debbie!!!”


“Sol was wonderful taking care of my cat. Sol was very responsive and courteous, and it really seemed like my cat got a lot of attention and felt very loved. Will definitely rebook in the future!”


“Ash took care of our animals before she was on Rover. Now that’s she’s growing her business we have booked and are happy with her care. Having a new pup we were stressed but she did great.”


“A few days before I was supposed to go up north to visit an old friend I began looking for a sitter on Rover.com. Not having used an online service before I didn't realize that I was trying to book at the "last minute." Johnna and Samuel graciously agreed to watch Gabi, my cat, with drop-in visits. Each day, true to their word, they sent me a photo and a written update of how Gabi was doing. I will unequivocally recommend Johanna and Samuel for their high level of care.”

About: I’ve owned cats my whole life and have done everything from bottle feeding kittens, helping administer vaccines, as well as scooping litter every single day. For many years me and my family fostered cats through Purr Partners and we took care of kittens as well as many spicy kitties. Additionally, throughout highschool I volunteered at SafeHaven for cats and visited their facility every weekend to help clean up cages, scoop litter, as well as play with any cats that needed socializing. Currently we own 10, some of which we adopted while fostering and a few of which we rescued ourselves. Overall, my cats bring me joy and I’d love to take care of other cats as well!
About: I’ve owned cats since I was 5 and dogs since I was 10. Both puppies and seniors, so I have worked on taking care of them for a long time! I have also gained experience in the pet care world through working at a dog daycare! I’m currently attending school full time and work part time, but I am able to do evening and early morning walks! My availability does not change much unless I’m away from school! I will not be able to take care of dogs in my home because of the two others I already have. In others home, I will be able to follow details given. I can let dogs out, walk them, feed them, crate them, or whatever is needed!
“It has been such a pleasure getting to know Brinkley and having her watch my pets. She's an awesome, positive, and very responsible caregiver and I highly recommend her! Thank you Brinkley for going above and beyond to care for my home and animals.”

“Ashley did a great job looking after my 2 large dogs and cat while I was away. She was flexible when our schedule changed, professional and very easy to communicate with, keeping me up to date on my furwads and drop-ins. I highly recommend:)”

“We came on vacation here and my dog, Shadow, was miserable because he has separation anxiety issues, so I contacted Amy to see if she could keep him for me during the day so he wouldn’t be alone. It was an amazing experience! She was so good with him and he actually loved going after the first day. Amy was a lifesaver for me, I could relax on my vacation and know Shadow was in good hands. Will definitely be using her again next time we come to town. Thank you so much!”

“James did a great job with our dog. It was last minute, and he was able to accommodate. When we dropped her off, she just walked into the place like she owned it. I figure if my dog is comfortable doing that, then I should be comfortable leaving her there. Will definitely reach out to James again next time we're in the area.”


“Amanda took great care of Benji and Stella! They had a blast playing with Cleo. They were happy and tired when we picked them up. Amanda is a natural with dogs--I would definitely recommend boarding your dog(s) with her when you are in the Smokies and want to do a long hike, because the park does not allow dogs.”


“Kaitlyn is a wonderful dog sitter. She sent pictures that showed Abby in various activities throughout the day. It was obvious that Abby enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn, her dog and daughter. She was extremely flexible on the drop-off and pick-up times. This was our first time to use her and she will be our first choice in future bookings. Thank you, Kaitlyn!!”

“Meagan was great and our pups were well taken care of! She worked with us on flexible drop off and pick up times due to the event we were attending. We highly recommend Meagan for your pet needs. Thanks!!”

“Adam es el mejor, se preocupó mucho por el bienestar de Bella y nos mantuvo informados con fotos y videos todo el tiempo! Es mi primera vez dejando a mi bebé con alguien y estaba indecisa pero Adam hizo que nos sintiéramos muy tranquilos durante todo el día. Gracias gracias!!”

“Christal was great! My pup, who is often initially sad when we leave her with a sitter, loved Christal immediately and had a great time. She went above and beyond, taking my dog on a long walk at Forest Park. Wish I was a local so I could re-book!”

About: I have had pets all my life and at this time I have 2 very gentle German Shepherds that get along well with other dogs. I actually jog 3 miles with one of them several times a week so taking dogs for a walk will not be a problem. I have a part time job that I work out of my house so I am available everyday except Sunday mornings when I go to church. My husband is a firefighter/paramedic and has showed me some CPR. He will be around some days and will be able to assist me if need be. I am at a time in my life right now where I have the time to enjoy my pets and would love to offer my services to people with their fur-babies. I am retired and so is my husband. We just love all dogs and this gives us lots of pleasure being able to care for them. I have a wraparound porch in the mountains that has a closed gate. Also, have an area that is fenced with a ramp going down to this fenced yard, dogs can go freely.

About: As someone who is hardworking and detail-oriented, I feel that I am up to the task of caring for all kinds of pets. From a young age I've worked with dogs, cats, small rodents, and even horses! Some even call me the "animal whisperer." Grooming, walking, playing, feeding, providing fresh water regularly, giving medication orally or with food, overnight stays, and cleaning up after animals are some of the tasks I've performed throughout my time caring for these beloved fur friends. I'm free every day of the week, preferably any time after 10 AM but also willing to negotiate times of care that fits both you and your pet's needs! I make sure to respect other's property and belongings when housesitting or petsitting for pet parents. Keeping spaces clean, tidy, and how I found it is something I find to be important when given the trust of others to be in their spaces. I'm always willing to learn and adapt to your pet's needs, environment, and behaviors.
About: I had two dogs growing up and one of the hardest parts of my life so far was both of them passing away. I loved them so much and I want to be able to give my love and care to other animals! I would love to go on walks/ play/ and take care of your animal as if they were my own. I feel there is a hole in me and it can be filled with taking care of animals. I know that may sound cheezy but I am an avid animal lover. Being able to take care of your animal would put a huge smile on my face ( and your) knowing they are healthy and happy in my care. I hope you choose me :) My schedule is pretty open and I am open to working with you to find a proper schedule to meet your needs! I am available for drop ins and overnight! I give lots of love and cuddle, watch them play, take them on walks, and of course feed them, and play with them. Administering medicine is also a skill I hold. Attentive to diets and specific needs such as needs for space, interactions with other animals etc..
“Bella was a wonderful, wonderful help while my mom was out of town for a family trip. She was so great with her dog, she was wonderful to communicate with, and we are so appreciative of her. She truly went above and beyond for our family.”

About: (Previously known as AJ) I am a lifelong animal lover with experience in dog, cat and some limited horse care. With a natural affinity for animals, I enjoy working with many different critter personalities and always honor and meet any animal where they are at. I have experience with senior pets and I am comfortable administering medications with instructions. I firmly believe that you are the expert on your fur kids- I use a great attention to detail to do my very best to enrich any animal’s life with all of the information on hand, rather than taking a cookie cutter approach. If I need clarification, I am not afraid to ask. My number one priority is always your pet’s health and safety. It would be an absolute privilege to help care for your beloved family members! Please feel free to message me with any questions. Thank you for your time! My schedule is fairly flexible as I work part-time at night. Please reach out with your needs and we can try to work something out! I am comfortable offering services in your home, I am not able to offer services in my home at this time due to having three doggos in my house! In your home I would start with questions helping me get familiar with your pet’s routine, their normal vs abnormal behaviors, and any logistical tasks needed in my role to ensure their heath and happiness as well as yours.
About: I am a college student at WCU! And since I was a little girl I have cared for animals and my heart grows bigger for them each day! I understand it is scary leaving your baby in the hands of someone new but I am more than willing to prove myself that I am the best! I have volunteered at many animal shelters and have walked plenty of dogs (including my teachers) on campus! I am currently working part time, my schedule is very flexible. I can care for pets most mornings and evening, and several mid days a week! Every client is different, I understand you have certain rules for your babies and I am more than willing to listen to them! Need your baby to walk for 40 minutes? Let’s get our walk in! Need the little one in a crate when I leave? More than happy to!
About: I’ve owned both cats and dogs my whole life, and more recently I’ve owned chickens as well. Starting with cats, I’ve fed and cleaned up after the ones we’ve owned, as well as taken care of the cats and kittens we fostered over the years. I’ve bottle fed them, helped give vaccines, and everything else in between when it comes to raising and taking care of them. I have also helped pet sit many of our neighbors as well as friends cats over the years. We have also owned several dogs, and I have tons of experience with walking and feeding them. We currently own 3; 2 small dogs and 1 big dog, so I have learned how to take care of many sizes of dog. Like with cats, I’ve also walked and fed my neighbors dogs many times when they’ve gone out of town. Lastly, we’ve raised more chickens than I can count in the past 7ish years, and I’ve taken care of chicks we got from breeders, as well as chicks born from our own hens and roosters. All of our chickens free range and are egg layers, so I treat them like any other pet and not like livestock. I have experience feeding them, fending off hawks and other predators, putting them to bed every night, as well as animal-proofing the coops themselves. For almost my whole life, I’ve helped feed our cats and scooped their litter just about every day. I also walk and feed each of our dogs throughout the day. Finally, I feed and put up our chickens many times throughout each week. I follow any instructions my clients may have and can cater to their pets needs. I love on and treat others pets the same way I would with my own, and have done so for neighbors, family, friends, as well as many others.
About: My family’s pet care business has allowed me to spend the last 3 years learning the in’s and outs of the drop-in and dog walking business and as I transition to college I bring that knowledge to my own business and hope to be able to spoil your pets! Our home has often been an exotic barnyard and I’ve been fortunate enough to gain experience with all types of animals. Message me for a meet and greet and we can see if I would be a good fit! Senior pet and puppy/kitten experience- ✔️ Large Dog- ✔️ I’ll do it all! I’m currently preparing for college in August and then will be moving to Cullowhee, NC. During the summer I will be available all day everyday and will be back in Florence, SC every summer to work. during the school year I will be available around campus for dog walking and drop-in as well as it fits in my class schedule. I will not be doing daycare. Drop-in and dog walking only. I will have a leash and potty bags with me extra in case they are not owner provided.
“Lillie has been great working with our new dog Archie. She is very patient and gives great updates, which is very helpful when trying to figure out what behaviors we need to work on with him.”

About: Growing up, I had always been very involved in the care of our family pets which made my love for all animals so strong from a young age. I have two dogs, a cat, and 7 reptiles:) I have watched pets on many occasions for my family, the families I nannied for, family friends, and clients from Rover. I understand that each fur baby has their own personality and I am always respectful of their boundaries and excited to get along and play!! I am comfortable with any size, age, and type of pet. Happy to talk about a flat rate and can be very flexible! My current schedule, I have classes Monday, Wednesday, & Friday 8am-11am; Tuesday and Thursday 8:30-11:30. I would love to find a regular client whom I can dog walk/sit for on a regular basis but I am also interested in any short term dog care requests that you may have or overnights if comfortable with my schedule. I’m great at following instructions and will take care of your pup as if they were my own! I understand that each pet is different and will cater to the needs of each of your pets.
About: I have grown up always having multiple family dogs at a time and cared for them independently from a very young age. Because of this long term experience, I have cared for the entire age-range from puppies to elderly. I have always enjoyed spending time with animals, taking care of them, playing with them, and making them happy! I also know that dogs can tell who “dog people” are and feel more comfortable with them - I am always the person that dogs come up to and hang around by at the party! I am currently in graduate school so my schedule can be a bit wonky, but I can do morning check-ins or walks before 9am or after around 6:00pm any day of the week. I am most flexible on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and on certain weekends. I have cared for escape-artist dogs in the past and know the proper way to enter/exit a home to minimize risk of them bolting, and how to hold on to a leash with backup support for unexpected pulling. Having treats that your dogs like available to help with crating or other parts of the check-in or walking process may also be very helpful.
About: I have been dog training for the past 5 years slowly growing my business. I love taking care of animals as it is my passion! Message me to learn more about me and my experience! My typical schedule is 8:30-4:30 with most of my availability in the mornings and evenings! This is the most accurate schedule for the 2026 year. I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a nice neighborhood where I can take your dog for plenty of walks and exercise.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, I am I senior in the nursing program at South College. I am staying full-time in Cullowhee right now, and I will be here for the rest of the summer. I have over 13 years of dog walking and dog sitting experience, and I have worked with every size and age of dogs- including my 2 large dogs I have myself at home (1 senior, and one puppy under 1 year). I am a very very active person who is willing to go on runs or hikes if that is something you would like. I am familiar and comfortable with administering medication to pets, since I do that for my senior dog every day. I do work full time this summer but I am able to adjust my work schedule according to the dates you need my services if I have enough advance, but also note that I am always available on Mondays and Tuesdays. Please contact me if you would like to know more about me and my schedule I look forward to hearing back from you!😁 I’m currently working part-time and I am fully online for school, so I will have plenty of time to fit these responsibilities into my schedule. With a good amount of heads up, I arrange my shifts the whole week to accommodate if you’re going on vacation or something like that. I can bring a leash, treats, and a harness- if needed for medium- bigger dogs (just let me know in advance if you would like me to). I am very good at working with more than one dog at once; the biggest party of dogs I have worked with at once is 4(all large dogs)! If there is anything that you would like me to bring specifically that would work best for your pet, please let me know and I will!

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life—dogs of all sizes, cats, fish, guinea pigs, and more. I’ve also helped neighbors with their animals, handling walks, feeding, playtime, exercise, and bathing (as long as they’re comfortable!). I love giving pets attention, exercise, and care tailored to their needs. I do not have classes on the marked days so I am almost always able to drop in multiple times on your pet, which also means I have enough time to give them quality care! I am willing to give baths, feed, play, give pets, let them out on potty breaks, go on lengthy walks, clean litter boxes, etc. I am unable to do overnights or house pets.

About: I’ve owned cats since I was 5 and dogs since I was 10. Both puppies and seniors, so I have worked on taking care of them for a long time! I have also gained experience in the pet care world through working at a dog daycare! I’m currently attending school full time and work part time, but I am able to do evening and early morning walks! My availability does not change much unless I’m away from school! I will not be able to take care of dogs in my home because of the two others I already have. In others home, I will be able to follow details given. I can let dogs out, walk them, feed them, crate them, or whatever is needed!
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. They are my favorite living being ever! I adore them so much and want to spend as much time with them as I can. I have a lot of experience with dog sitting, at least 5 years (in home). I don’t have as much experience with cats, but they’re growing on me! I’d be happy to watch your cat as well. I can do anything you may need me to do. I am a CNA, Medication Aide, and Medical Assistant, so I’m very familiar with small procedures your pet may need. For summer break, I am working a lot, but I’d still love to be considered even though our schedules may not align. There may be a break in mine for some reason allowing me to service you! Currently I’m working: Sunday: 4pm-11pm Monday: 7am-7pm Tuesday: 7am-7pm Wednesday: 7am-7pm Thursday: 4pm-10pm Friday: 12pm-11pm Saturday: 7am-3pm It’s a lot but I love working hard! That’s what summer break is all about :) I have the most experience in others’ homes, since I can’t have animals in my home. I am willing to do anything and everything you ask of me. With my schedule, a lower maintenance pet would probably be the best, but I can always mess around with my schedule a little if it can help you!

“Absolutely THE BEST pet sitter we have ever had! James (& Aimee) kept our fur babies, one dog and one cat, and we did not worry one time our whole trip. They sent several pictures and updates, & we could tell they were loved and protected. Our dog was so happy when we arrived; she had to show us her “vacation” house! ?She bonded with their girls also. Our cat was well-behaved but anxious around new animals, so James (& Aimee) accommodated him by giving him his own playroom! He was thrilled to sit in the window and watch the birds & butterflies. Our pet heroes adhered to both animals’ strict diet and feeding instructions ordered by our vet. Overall, everyone had a wonderful trip, and we will use them again. If we could give James (& Aimee) 10 stars, we would. We highly recommend them!”

“Wow! We lucked out choosing Emily as a sitter! She was fantastic. We needed a sitter at the last minute and Emily responded right away. We enjoyed meeting her and her sweet family. Our pup walked right in the door without a look back, like she was home. It was a blessing to be able to leave feeling like our pup was going to be fine. Emily sent messages and pics to reassure us that our old girl was settling in that evening and doing well the next morning. If we come back to this area again I would definitely ask for Emily. I’d highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much!”

“Mary was so wonderful with my boys! They’re usually really nervous around new people, but she made them feel so comfortable and took really good care of them. Mary sent me regular pictures and updates which I really appreciated. They seemed to have a great time at her place and got along well with her sweet dogs.”

“Autumn was awesome with our puppy chase. She kept us updated with pictures, what he ate and if he went potty. He came home totally happy and tired. Will use her again when we come up to North Carolina. ♥️”


“Pisco had a wonderful time with Alexis. Long walks, regular attention, and a nice place to relax. We appreciated her regular stream of photos. Highly recommend Alexis. We'll use her again.”

“Sharon is a loving and considerate companion that kept our elderly dog Kuma happy and healthy while we were away. Her wonderful attention to his daily needs was outstanding. Kuma enjoyed every minute of the warm and loving care Sharon gave to him everyday. The pictures and videos showed how he loved Sharon and how happy he was. Sharon would be an excellent pet sitter for your pets and we would highly recommend her services.”

“Maria was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable leaving my sweet Joey overnight. Great communication and updates with photos throughout his stay. I would recommend Maria to care for your best friends and will definitely be back! Joey can be a handful and Maria made me feel that he was so welcome! Thank you!!”

“Caitlin was an amazing sitter for my little Bean. It was my first time having a sitter for my dog. By day two of day care, Bean was as excited to see her as she was to come home at the end of the day. She sent pics and gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful I found her.”

“Tia is awesome! My pup’s first overnight and day camp went great. She sent lots of cute pics and the sweetest little write-up of how his stay went. I felt so comfortable leaving my little guy with her, especially after getting to meet the other dogs and seeing how calm and loving she was in her interactions with all of them. We are so grateful that our dog has a safe and nurturing place to socialize, play, and tire himself out! We will definitely be back and he can’t wait 😊”

About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
“Carrie G. does a WONDERFUL job! Our dog was having so much fun we don't think she wanted to leave. Her home and fenced in year is a very dog friendly and safe place. Our dog was treated like family.”

“Pamela was just what we needed for our senior lab. She provided wonderful care for over night boarding. We received frequent communication and the whole process was very smooth. Our pup enjoyed her stay and we would gladly use Pamela again”


“Amanda was wonderful! She was very kind and we felt very safe leaving D’Koda with her. We could tell she really loves animals. Her dog Chloe was the sweetest and cutest little baby. They both did there best to keep our dog who has separation anxiety distracted/entertained while we were gone. This was our first time using a dog sitter and Rover. We highly recommend Amanda and we will definitely contact her again next time we need a dog sitter in this area.”
