“Connie and Ron were amazing to our girl, Maggie! She loved staying with them (and almost didn’t want to leave). Their large backyard was perfect for her to explore, and they were so kind and doting on her. Thank you Connie & Ron!!”
“Thank you for being such good care takers! Ann and Jaren always do such a fantastic job at keeping me updated with lots of photos of Lottie while I am out of town. Can’t explain how much that means when away from home. Thank you for taking such good care of her, always! -Anna”
“Lacie is 5 stars as well as A++!!!! She takes remarkable care of our special needs Havanese , Emma. I can’t recommend her enough!! We love Lacie and would trust her with anything we own. Thank you Lacie.”
“My dog had the vacation of a lifetime with Debbie. He became friends with her borzoi, Robin. She took good care of my dog and sent pics along the way. I was nervous leaving him because he is an older dog, but there was no need to worry. I would highly recommend her.”
“Michelle and her husband are wonderful! Our pups always come back so happy and well loved. She sends pictures and intentional updates while they have them. And always sends them home with dog treats!”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“I was so very pleased with the way Kharen took care of my baby. She sent me photos and even a video showing Daisy playing. I would trust her with Daisy completely and because of her attention to Daisy I would gladly use her again. I I gave her five stars because of her set up and her attention and the fact that she was concerned about how I felt leaving Daisy. It’s a wonderful place to leave your baby!”
“Carlina did a great job with our dog, Maddy. She checked in and sent pics. I really appreciated that it was just our dog and Carolina’s dog there - I think too many make it a stressful stay. Maddy said she was a 10/10, bed and treats were great.”
“EXCELLENT SERVICE!! Highly recommend Jordan! My fur babies got spoiled by her and her family. Did not stress out about their care while on vacation. Will definitely use her in the future. Thank you again for your help in caring for our babies.”
“Kalynn watched Bootsy for 3 days and took the best care of him. They played in the park, went on walks, and overall had a great time. Would highly recommend her to anyone in Asheville.”
“Sharon is an absolutely amazingly good person and cares deeply about the pets in her care. Sharon updated us on Cedric throughout the day with videos and photos of him interacting with her and another pet. We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her, we knew he was getting exceptional care with Sharon. It’s a great feeling to know you can go away and your pup will be in good hands at “Camp Sharon’s”! Thank you Sharon, we appreciate you.”
“Michaela is a literal angel! I am so picky about who I choose to watch my baby and she put my mind at ease and went above and beyond. Gypsy was comfortable with Michaela from the very start. She was so attentive and provided several updates and photos! She took care of all my senior dog needs and you can tell she genuinely loves animals. If you are an anxious person about who watches your baby, she is the perfect person!! I could not have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be using her in the future.”
“Birdie had such a great stay with Soraya and will definitely be back the next time I need doggy care! Her home and back yard are well taken care of and secure! She treated Birdie like her own and provided regular pupdates!”
“Daisy had a great, long stay with Diane, who took great care of her. Daisy is 13 and needs a little TLC and Diane took good care of her. She also texted me pictures and told me me not to worry, that she would take good care of her. That was great peace of mind.”
“Kali was amazing. Our pups are 4 & 11 and this was the very first time we’ve left them with a non family member. Kali cared for them and loved on them as good or better than we would have and shared photos throughout their stay. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“My dog seemed to really enjoy her time with Marnette, David, and Gouda. This was the first time we had our dog stay with someone who we didn’t know personally. I was nervous, but Marnette and David took very good care of our dog. They are trustworthy and kind. We appreciated check-ins and pictures in the morning and at night. Highly recommend!”
“Laura is an absolute life saver! She watched my 11 week old puppy on short notice and even agreed to watch him again a day later to help me out of a bind. She has a beautiful huge fenced in yard and a great dog who is so sweet and tolerated my hyper baby well. I can’t recommend Laura enough, I felt so relieved when I dropped my baby off and he didn’t even look back as I left, he was ready to explore and play and made some great friends!”
“My dog had a great time with Sarah and her family. He was well-cared for, got along with their dog, and got lots of exercise and attention. It was a great experience and I appreciated the pictures she sent!”
“Kristin was great with our pup! She was easy to contact, sent pictures throughout the stay, and our dog came back to us tired from a lot of playing. Would definitely use her again if we lived in Asheville!”

“Kim is an excellent pet sitter! My cats love to hide and she patiently searched for them and often found them! She took care of them as if they were her own. We will definitely be asking her to care for our kitties again!”
“Alexis was wonderful! She looked after our two cats while we were gone for a week. It was so nice to come back and they were not as anxious because of the time she spent with them. The litter and food areas were clean as well. It was great to come home to. Thank you for everything and we will definitely be working with you again!”
“Mallory is the ideal pet sitter for my daughter Wally!!! She provides lots of good pics and it’s obvious she cares about her- it’s not just an obligation to sit with my cat for half an hour like I’ve seen with some other sitters. Will def ask Mallory to pet sit again!”
“Ashlee was wonderful, came when we requested and gave lots of love and attention to our fur babies. She went above and beyond her call of duty to clean up after cats had accidents. We look forward to booking her in the future!”
“Ashley did a wonderful job caring for my cat and home while I was out of town! She maintained great communication throughout my time away and made my cat feel very comfortable. Will definitely book with her again!”
“When I got home from vacation my kitty trotted out to greet me as though I had come home from work rather than being away for a few days. Most likely because Ryan was able to keep his world as normal as possible. His meals, treats and attention were presented as he expected. She gets it.”
“Adelynn was very friendly, professional, flexible with scheduling, and super sweet with my cat, Willow! I'd give her 10 stars if I could. Willow is very shy so it took her a while to come out, but Adelynn was very patient and sweet about it. Willow loves to play with her now. Absolutely worth booking her to look after your fuzzy family members!”
“Kayla was great! We appreciated her visit with our cat and will definitely recommend her to others. Our kitty is shy and always runs and hides when anyone comes into our home. Kayla snapped a few pictures for us of her in her bed. We are pleased with the services and will utilize the services again.”
“Jill and Eric are amazing!! They truly take the time to check in on our cats, get to know them, and provide great updates while we are away. We trust them every time.”
About: I have had dogs, fish, and rodents all my life. I volunteered at the Asheville Humane Society early into my teenage years. My previous job was at a dog daycare, which I worked at for one year. After I left that job I began working as a pet bather at a grooming salon. I recently left that job as I wanted to go back to school, and now started volunteering for the Asheville Humane Society again. I have pet sat for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, mice, fish, rabbits, pretty much anything. I am happy do feed, walk, play with, or just snuggle with any critter you might have! Beginning in August I will be in school and will not be able to do any services until 1:00 or later on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I also go to church Sunday mornings and also cannot do any services before 1:00. However I do not have a job at the moment so other than those two things my schedule is pretty open! *Because of school if you are wanting to book me for house sitting longer than two nights you MUST have WiFi* I am more than happy to provide any service you would like me to do for your fur baby in your home. I do not mind long walks/hikes, preparing complicated meals, playing, whatever you need. I never raise my voice or get physical with animals. I will care for them with love and care!
“Jennie is absolutely wonderful! She is so thorough with every visit and her communication is incredible. She gives the most detailed summaries and tons of photos along with them. She is so flexible and even went the extra mile to help us navigate getting home safely during the storm. I’d choose her again and again to care for my babies.”
“Thanks Ann, Jaren and Fiona, Thanks for taking Roxy at short notice. It really helped our transition from out of state to NC. She is a scardy cat for sure. The last couple of months were difficult for all of us. I know Roxy is not an easy guest but you handled well and tried your best. Thanks again. Beth and Jeff”
“We had never used a stranger to keep out two cats. Amanda came for a meet and greet prior to staying with tiger and panther. After that we were no longer strangers. Amanda likes all animals. She sent updates and photos. We will call Amanda next time we go out of town!”

“Ann & Jaren took such great care of my Lottie girl when I was on vacation to NYC! They kept me up to date with lots of pictures; being that this was the first time we were apart for this long, I really appreciated the photos and care she received. She was in great hands and I 100% will be using them in the future! Thanks again 😊”
“Kharen was a great dog-sitter for our pup and provided pics throughout the day. Zilly came home happy and exhausted from playing all day. Kharen was also super flexible with us when we had some unexpected traffic that required extending pick up time. We really appreciated her and Zilly loved her! Thanks Kharen 😊”
About: My name is Mac Graf and my husband and I live right outside Hendersonville, NC. I am a certified and licensed athletic trainer and am the Director of Sports Medicine as my full-time job. I work 90% of my job from home, and would love to help take the stress off your work day by allowing your fur family to hangout with me and my family for the day. I take my work seriously whether that be with my patients or with my fur friends. I fostered dogs throughout undergrad to give me more experience and make a change in an animal's life. I ended up adopting one of my foster dogs in 2020 and it was the best decision i've ever made! I rescued another dog in February of 2023, so I have lots of personal dog experience. I understand that having a dog is not just having a pet, but it is another family member. I treat them as such. With my experience as a foster, and being a pet owner myself - I know that I am responsible and loving towards all animals. I would love nothing more than to help take the stress off other dog owners, and help take care of them when needed. Since my job is 90% remote work, I have the flexibility to take my dogs on a walk or play outside in the fenced in area of our home multiple times a day. Throughout the work day they go outside multiple times - usually with a longer walk at the end of my work day. I ask the person I am dog sitting for what they want, and I always accommodate to whatever makes my client feel most comfortable with! We have two baby gates at home, so if we ever need to separate dogs in our home, we have the ability to do so. I always will be respectful of my clients and whatever their wishes are.
“Lacie was absolutely wonderful to our Cockapoo, Biscuit. We did day care in her home and she has a house perfectly suited to having animals and a huge fenced yard. She clearly loves animals and I’m so glad I found her. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“KaLynn was very kind and understanding about working with my dog with separation anxiety. Her fenced area is perfect for pups to play while still having space. She was communicative and easy-going, and I felt comfortable while I was out for the evening. Thanks for your help!”
“My dog has separation anxiety and loved his old doggy daycare back in our old town. I had trouble finding a daycare here when I moved that he liked and that fit with my schedule. We're so lucky we stumbled on Ryan. She has super flexible hours so I can stay late at the office if needed. She has all sorts of animals so Ludo is never lonely. She's also a retired vet tech so she has plenty of experience with all kinds of animals. Ludo barely even notices when I walk out her door to leave him for the day, and that's HUGE.”
“I needed a sitter last minute, and Julie accepted our sweet Luna with open arms. Excellent communication, I immediately felt confident Luna would be in caring and safe care, and Julie was super flexible. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: Hi! I might be new to Rover but not pet sitting! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently own two pugs and a soon to be therapy dog named Zoey. I also live with my husband Mike! He is an engineer at Duke Energy & isn’t always home. But I work from home so cuddles are always available for your pup! Beyond caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered with the Blue Ridge Humane Society and spent several years fostering animals in need, helping them transition into loving forever homes. Through fostering, I’ve gained experience working with shy, energetic, anxious, and special needs pets, always focusing on patience, safety, and positive reinforcement. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Please reach out for special requests. I can try to accommodate such as picking up your pet or dropping you off at the airport. I live 6 minutes away from AVL. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members🐾 I currently work from home so if you have an anxious, high energy, sleepy, and separation anxiety I’m your girl! I am a Rover customer as well so I will your dogs just like I would want another Rover sitter to! All dogs are allowed on the couch & bed! I sleep with my 3 crazy sweet dogs. I do have a fenced yard. We also have a dog park in our community! I take my dogs there every day after work.
About: Hi! I've been taking care of dogs for my friends and family. In 2019, I adopted my rescued fur baby Bobby, and in 2020, I adopted my beautiful girl Bella. They have been the great addition to our family. I'm very reliable, responsible, loving and caring for your pet and love to give cuddles and kisses to your fur baby. I currently work from home different days where I can give care to your loved one and enjoy time together. I can have my little one play together with yours. Whatever makes you more comfortable, I respect that, and will always give my best care and love to your loved one. I have a small patio where your dog can take some sun and air, play with my Bobby and enjoy the beautiful view. I also have a doggy park nearby where we can go and play.
“Such a friendly family! My dog Maverick loves going over to play with their pups & children. Autumn always responds quickly & is a pleasure to communicate with. Her husband Josh is great as well, truly amazing people! I am so grateful they decided to become rover caregivers. If i could give more stars i would!”
About: First and foremost, I absolutely adore animals! Even as a kid, I would only accompany my mother to visit her friends, who had dogs or cats in their home. I appreciate, respect, and can relate to the bond humans have with their pets. They are very much family and there's nothing more satisfying than seeing your fur baby comfortable, relaxed, and content, in our home or yours, while you're away. We only board 2 dogs at a time, to ensure a quiet, calm, and more relaxing stay, and have a large fenced in backyard for playtime. Dogs staying with us must be house trained. We also have a cat, who loves to play with dogs, so to ensure his safety, any dogs boarding with us must be cat friendly. Some of my previous work experience includes 4 years as a veterinary assistant and I'm comfortable with administering medication, if needed. I have dog training experience and have even trained two of our own to become registered therapy dogs. Together, we serve our community by providing pet therapy in shelters for domestic violence victims, assisted living facilities, our local university, in elementary schools, and wherever she's needed. I currently work with German Shepherd Rescue organizations, assessing temperaments/behavior, conducting home visits, and fostering. We live near the airport, which makes it ideal for dropping off and picking up when traveling for work or going on vacation. Several of my clients leave their babies with us when leaving the country. In addition to dog sitting for many friends and family members over the years, I've also taken care of cats, horses, goats, and even iguanas! I can't wait to provide extra love, play time, and affection for your fur baby, too! I work from home and we have one dog and a cat. I closely supervise any dogs that are our guests here and can provide potty breaks as frequently as needed. Any pets staying with us are supervised inside and out. Our yard is large and fenced in, so it's a great place for play sessions. For drop in visits, I customize it to the owner's wishes and dog's needs.
About: I’ve loved dogs for forever and am happy to share my space and love with yours as long as they are house trained and respectful of my rescue hound. I have a big fenced in yard, work from home, and walk my dog daily (often on hiking trails). Happy to give your dog the same care and attention! Layla has a button she presses when she wants to go outside, I’m working on teaching her the command “shut the door” :) would love to work on training for fun with your dog too! There is plenty of room for crates (if you prefer) & to separate them during feeding time. Dogs are welcome on my furniture including my bed.
“Alyssa and Bryan took such great care of our two girls and they have come back happy and tired both times we’ve sent them! They kept us updated with photos and letting us know what they had been up to. They asked a lot of thoughtful questions about Zoe and Riley and I’m very happy to have found them to take care of my crew. They have a great space and yard for the dogs to play and explore, which was a big draw for me. Will definitely book them again!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs and sick/disabled dogs. I can administer medication, if needed. My dogs are our family members and yours will be treated the same. I am currently working from home so your pet won’t be left home alone for very long periods. I am available during the week and weekends including holidays. I have two very sweet and mellow Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to keep your doggie company. They will have access to 2 separate fenced in areas, one with a doggie door. Your dog can be crated or not and are welcome on the furniture with our dogs. Ours sleep in an x-pen together but your dog can sleep where ever it prefers. I want them to be comfortable like it is their own home.
About: I lived on a farm with a puppy, cows, pig, chickens in brevard North Carolina! A little bit of everything! I have grown up loving and caring for animals. My goals is to put your mind at easy about your sweet pups and give them love when you can not! I am a nurse PRN and going back to school now so I am very flexible! I am a student and am very flexible! My class and clinical schedule is different all the time so we can work anything out really! I live on 5 acres at my home with all of my animals! I can also stay at your home where your pet is most comfortable!
“I can't say enough wonderful things about this lovely lady to do her justice! She took such good care of my baby girl! She helped her come out of her shell and was just amazing with her! She cared for her so lovingly and sent me pictures and updates of her throughout the day ! I feel so lucky to have found her!”

“We were gone for the weekend and Mallory was wonderful with our 2 pups! They are usually crazy and destructive when we leave but they loved Mallory and behaved so well! Would highly recommend for pup sitting and walking.”
“I am so glad we found Ashlee. She arrived on time and immediately connected in a lovely way with my pup, Murphy. I was able to accomplish my errands with my mind completely at ease. Ashlee is kind friendly capable and experienced. I highly recommend her services.”
“Highly recommend Alexis! Luna had so much fun with her and she was well taken care of! Alexis sent us a great update with pictures and we are so pleased with the care she gave Luna! Definitely hire her for any of your pet needs! We will definitely be using Alexis again!”

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was about 10 years old. I’ve helped train puppies from a young age, and nursed kittens from 3-weeks old. More recently I’ve helped nurse and rehabilitate my senior dog after her major ACL surgery. She was sling bound for 6 weeks so I feel very comfortable with a large range of ages, and needs in cats and dogs. I have a huge love for all animals and believe all of them deserve love and care just like humans! I’m also here because my lovely fiancé and I just got engaged this past summer. I’m hoping to save up and earn as much money as I can to help host our dream wedding here in the mountains next year! We both love our babies and I would be happy to give your fur babies that same love and support ☺️ UPDATE: Sadly I can no longer provide overnight sittings. I AM available to do a sitting that does not require me to stay at your home overnight. I understand if this prevents you from hiring me for a sitting. I currently work remote full-time but do have some flexibility in my schedule to fit in drop-ins and walks. Wednesdays are usually when I have the most calls, but of course can try and work around my and your schedule. I’m happy to come to your home to give you that reassurance that your fur baby is doing okay while you’re away. As I said, I work fully remote so my pets pretty much have constant care unless I’m traveling for work. I typically let my dog out about 3-4 times a day depending on her needs, so I’m happy to do the same for your dog. She gets fed twice a day, as well as my cat. Every now and then we will switch out dry food for wet food just to give them both some variety, so I’m happy to do the same for your pet. You and your pet’s comfortability are my priority so I’m happy to cater to your preferences.
“Amazing! I reached out and they had time to take a booking right away! Great job with our two 70lb dogs on an hour long walk. So thoughtful with leaving us homemade dog treats too. Thank you Michelle and Dale!”
“I highly recommend Laina. I hired her to take and pickup Peace at daycare. Peace has anxiety and Laina was very gentle with him. She has patience, compassion and very understanding…..which is what I need when it comes to Peace. Thank you Laina! 😊👏😊👏😊👏👏👏👏❤️”
About: I’ve been animal-obsessed for as long as I can remember 🐾💕 I’ve worked with animals most of my life and currently work at a veterinary clinic in Brevard, so I have tons of hands-on experience with all kinds of pet needs. I’ve been pet sitting for 7 years, starting out helping friends and family, and I’ve been so lucky to have it grow through word of mouth into something I truly love doing! Caring for animals truly makes me so happy, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—spoiled, loved, and well cared for! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to check on your babies! I can do early AM, lunch and PM visits! I also live within 5 minutes of Downtown Hendersonville so I’m easy and convenient! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take great care to create a calm, secure environment and follow your instructions closely. I also love keeping you connected while you’re away—expect regular photo updates and I’m always happy to do FaceTime check-ins so you can see your pet happy and safe in real time!
About: Rescuing dogs — especially puppies — is the most rewarding feeling in life. The most important thing with our furry friends is consistency. If you're stricter with your dog, you need a sitter who'll uphold those rules, not let them slide. I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and I've learned that it's not about what I want — it's about honoring what the owner has built with their pet. I work with the public in my day job, so patience is second nature to me. Pets are no different. They need someone who can read their energy, stay calm, and meet them where they're at. I also love running and playing with animals. Exercise is huge — but I get that a walk isn't always about distance. Sometimes they need to run. Sometimes they need to stop and smell everything. I match their pace, not mine. I don't know if anything really sets me apart from other sitters. I just genuinely want to be there for the furry family member. My availability in inconsistent due to Firefighting but I will always respond as soon as I'm able too. I understand due to my schedule I won't the best sitter for if you need someone daily, but if you need someone to drop-in, walk your dog, or just need a night out, feel free to leave a message. Currently working for a fire department, schedule can be inconsistent. Great for drop in play times and walks. Days off from fire department can be great for unexpected care. Currently unable to have pets in home due to renting rules. Will make sure to confirm and follow all rules with you before accepting the job.
About: I've grown up with several cats. My best friend and the love of my life is a tabby cat I've had since I was 12 years old. I didn't have a dog growing up but I frequently cared for my neighbors Great Pyrenees. My first dog as an adult was a rescue coonhound mix and my current dog is a purebred Redbone Coonhound. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and a dog. I work part time at Food Lion, but I'm wanting to be a full-time pet sitter. Humans are too complicated for me. Plus it gives me the opportunity to spend more time with my dog! I live in an apartment but I'm very active. I utilize all the trails and parks in the area and I bring along my buddy Kashmir, my Redbone Coonhound puppy who loves other dogs!
About: I have owned dogs my entire life with many cats in between. I have had the pleasure of sitting dogs and cats all over the country, including house sits in California, Oregon, Washington, and now North Carolina. I have experience with young puppies, as well as elderly dogs with a plethora of health problems; I also have experience with big dogs like German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and Rottweilers, to teacup Pomeranians, spitz, and many more. I have been told I’m very high energy and fun, and the animals I have looked after always seem to pick up on that great energy and can’t wait to hang out. :) I sell vintage clothing, so being self employed allows me to better accommodate to all the needs of the animals. In our own home, our dog Endo is the King. He gets to enjoy long daily walks amidst the beauty of DuPont forest, swims in the lake behind our house, and nightly fresh cooked meals. My services on house sits include obviously feeding and general care of the animals, as well as promptly following specific dietary regimens and health requirements of every animal. I have cared for very old dogs that needed assistance in bowel movements as well as simple motivation for stubborn dogs that don’t like to walk. I have also looked after countless plants and hot tubs, ensuring proper watering and chlorination.
About: A lifetime of loving puppies of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with puppies and seniors alike. I’m a master of belly rubs and daily walks! I’m currently available for house sitting, check ins, walks & Belly Rubs. I work from home with some part time work once in a while. I love having furry friends to spend time with. I will treat, spoil and love your fur babies like my own. On overnight stays, I always leave a clients home better than I find it. I am a loyal lover of pets and have references to confirm my commitments and reliability.
About: I've cared on animals all my life - from cats + dogs to fish and guinea pigs! I've always had a love for animals and the joy they bring me. My husband and I have a kitty named Mr and he is the goodest boy! He loves tummy rubs and zoomies and is very loved! I hope you'll consider me to give your fur babies all the love and attention they deserve! Oh and a bonus, I love to exercise/hike in pretty places and will gladly bring your pet along if you like :) I live close to Flat Rock Park and am more than happy to take your pup for a walk there or even a dip in the creek! I love to cuddle any fur babies that will let me :) I currently am available for drop-ins or walks Monday - Friday from 10am-5pm. Let's chat and see if we can work out the care you need :) When visiting your home for drop-ins or walks, my main goal is keeping your pet relaxed, safe, and happy in their normal routine. Routine & Safety: I stick to your feeding and walk schedules, keep your space clean, and double-check all doors and locks before leaving. Attentive Care: Visits are all about quality time- whether that’s a quick walk, a good play sesh, clean water bowls, or just some cuddles. Peace of Mind: You’ll get updates and plenty of photos every visit so you always know how your pet is doing!
“Ryan has been a great asset in helping to raise and exercise our little puppy! Her background as a veterinarian tech makes her more than qualified for this job! She has given us tips on how to train our 12 week old puppy which is super helpful. I would recommend her to any of our friends for sure!”

“Michelle and her husband are wonderful! Our pups always come back so happy and well loved. She sends pictures and intentional updates while they have them. And always sends them home with dog treats!”
“Carlina did a great job with our dog, Maddy. She checked in and sent pics. I really appreciated that it was just our dog and Carolina’s dog there - I think too many make it a stressful stay. Maddy said she was a 10/10, bed and treats were great.”
“EXCELLENT SERVICE!! Highly recommend Jordan! My fur babies got spoiled by her and her family. Did not stress out about their care while on vacation. Will definitely use her in the future. Thank you again for your help in caring for our babies.”
“Sharon is an absolutely amazingly good person and cares deeply about the pets in her care. Sharon updated us on Cedric throughout the day with videos and photos of him interacting with her and another pet. We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her, we knew he was getting exceptional care with Sharon. It’s a great feeling to know you can go away and your pup will be in good hands at “Camp Sharon’s”! Thank you Sharon, we appreciate you.”
“Michaela is a literal angel! I am so picky about who I choose to watch my baby and she put my mind at ease and went above and beyond. Gypsy was comfortable with Michaela from the very start. She was so attentive and provided several updates and photos! She took care of all my senior dog needs and you can tell she genuinely loves animals. If you are an anxious person about who watches your baby, she is the perfect person!! I could not have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be using her in the future.”
“Birdie had such a great stay with Soraya and will definitely be back the next time I need doggy care! Her home and back yard are well taken care of and secure! She treated Birdie like her own and provided regular pupdates!”
“Daisy had a great, long stay with Diane, who took great care of her. Daisy is 13 and needs a little TLC and Diane took good care of her. She also texted me pictures and told me me not to worry, that she would take good care of her. That was great peace of mind.”
“Kali was amazing. Our pups are 4 & 11 and this was the very first time we’ve left them with a non family member. Kali cared for them and loved on them as good or better than we would have and shared photos throughout their stay. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Laura is an absolute life saver! She watched my 11 week old puppy on short notice and even agreed to watch him again a day later to help me out of a bind. She has a beautiful huge fenced in yard and a great dog who is so sweet and tolerated my hyper baby well. I can’t recommend Laura enough, I felt so relieved when I dropped my baby off and he didn’t even look back as I left, he was ready to explore and play and made some great friends!”
“My dog had a great time with Sarah and her family. He was well-cared for, got along with their dog, and got lots of exercise and attention. It was a great experience and I appreciated the pictures she sent!”
“Alexis was a great host and Max came back happy and relaxed! She sent reliable communication and was super easy to coordinate schedules with. Will recommend and will book again!”
“This was Gus's third "vacation" with Jeremy and Katie. We are very fortunate to have found them - the peace of mind we have knowing he is in good hands is priceless. :)”
“Addie is a Cairn/Westie mix who hasn't always been sure of how she feels about other pets. Because of that, we went to meet Ryan and her crew before we signed up with her. Addie LOVED her miniature zoo with cats and a dog, some bunnies, and a parrot! She came home from her stay very happy (and exhausted). She'd eaten all her food (which means she wasn't nervous) and Ryan had given her her dental chews and rawhide treats, so she was well and truly cared for. She had a ball! What more can you ask??? Thanks, Ryan - you're the best!”
“Caroline and her family were amazing dog sitters. My nervous little doggy was right at home there! Caroline was so responsive to all my initial questions, sent photos and updates daily, and really made me feel comfortable leaving my furry son at her house. Booking my next stay with her now!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs and sick/disabled dogs. I can administer medication, if needed. My dogs are our family members and yours will be treated the same. I am currently working from home so your pet won’t be left home alone for very long periods. I am available during the week and weekends including holidays. I have two very sweet and mellow Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to keep your doggie company. They will have access to 2 separate fenced in areas, one with a doggie door. Your dog can be crated or not and are welcome on the furniture with our dogs. Ours sleep in an x-pen together but your dog can sleep where ever it prefers. I want them to be comfortable like it is their own home.
“We highly recommend Calvin as a dog sitter. Our dog Stella loves going there. Calvin is great with sending pictures and updates. She has stayed 2 times with him and each has been a great experience. Last time she was there she didn’t want to leave! She stayed by the front door and wouldn’t budge as we coaxed her into the car. It is easy leaving town knowing she is well cared for.”
“Toby had a great weekend with Ali and Penny. Ali took great care of him, gave frequent updates, and went above and beyond in her flexibility and taking care of our boy. Will definitely be asking her to watch Toby again next time I need a sitter.”
“Wow! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Alyssa and Bryan and the care they gave Theo on his recent (and 1st overnight) visit. The property is a dream, and they are both dog people who know how handle introductions and new environments. Our dog is typically skittish and protective over us and he had the time of his LIFE with them. They are now our go-to in hopes they don’t book out so far in advance haha. So thankful to have found a wonderful family and new friends.”
“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.”
