“I am extremely happy I found Ana on Rover. Not only was she patient and loving toward my little senior fur baby, but she also provided updates to include pictures of my fur baby's progress during her stay. I am forever grateful for the care, and attention Ana provided to my sweet little fur baby while she was in her care. Thank you so much Ana!”

“I had an amazing experience with Branden and Nikkishae! From the start, communication was great and I felt completely comfortable leaving my puppy in their care. They were patient, attentive, and clearly have a natural love for animals. My puppy was well taken care of, and I could tell he felt safe and comfortable the entire time. They kept me updated and made the whole process stress-free for me, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be a returning customer and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to watch their pet. They are officially my go-to pet sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with them again.”

“We love boarding our two pups with Kasey and Adam and their other dogs! We have two very high energy, constantly playful puppies and they get to play their absolute hearts out while staying with Kasey and Adam! Every time we pick them up they are extremely well cared for and extremely happy. When we drop them off they run straight into the boarding area or greet Adam excitedly, so we know they think of this place as their second home. Kasey and Adam know dogs and dog behavior super well and it shows, plus they always send lots of pictures and videos when we’re away. Can’t imagine what we would do if we didn’t have this family to board our pups with!!”

“Niki has been great each time I’ve had her watch my Boston terrier. So much so that he even whined when we left the last time! Thank you so much for all of the updates and pictures and for treating him with so much love!”

“Kelli did an amazing job watching my 2yo GSD! Great communication with pictures and videos! We did a meet and greet before hand making sure everything was going to be great! I will definitely be using Kelli in the future to watch my boy!”

“My dogs second stay with Sierra was just as excellent as the first! She is so flexible and easy to work with. Jester plays with her dogs (even though he tends not to care for German Shepard’s - he loves hers!). It’s kind of like doggie camp for him when we leave.”

“Kurt really went above and beyond for my pups and for me as well. When my travel for work got extended unexpectedly, he kept the pups for an additional day until his next client and wouldn’t even take extra payment for it. He even took them to my house for the drop off. Plus, throughout the stay, he took them on walks, to get treats from Starbucks and chick fil a, and took them with him on errands. He also spoiled them with new toys and treats! It was obvious that they were so well cared for and given every bit of love they would get from me while I was away. I was so appreciative of the great care Kurt provided, and the updates he sent me the whole time were really comforting since I could tell the pups were happy and getting so much love:) would highly recommend to anyone!”

“Mikayla took such amazing care of our two dogs! We got tons of pictures and videos of them during our trip. They got to play with Mikayla’s dogs and have a blast! She had such great communication with us the whole trip. We highly highly recommend her ❤️”

“Thank you for giving our baby the best care! We loved all the photos and videos Ali sent. Gavin had soooo much fun with his new friends. We feel safe leaving Gavin with Ali and her family.”

“Excellent pet sitter. I was nervous about leaving my cat with someone as this was my first time. I'm very glad I chose Natalie V. She kept in consistent communication with me and sent me pics! Will definitely use her again!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Taylor! She was extremely communicative from start to finish, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was easy to work with, reliable, and clearly cared about our pet’s well-being. She kept us updated regularly and followed all instructions perfectly.”

“From the moment I dropped Kaine off, I felt completely confident that he was in excellent hands. He took the time to ensure a smooth introduction between his dog and Kaine, which immediately put me at ease. He also gave me a tour of the area where Kaine would be playing—it truly felt like a vacation for dogs. Throughout Kaine’s stay, I received daily updates and photos, which provided great peace of mind. If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would. I will definitely be returning in the future.”

“Ashley always does an amazing job with Sunny and working with us. Not only has Ashley helped us for trips away, our dog has benefited from socialist with other people and pets. Highly recommend!”

“Shadella agreed to watch my dog on such short notice which was definitely appreciated! She sent videos and pictures and always kept me updated. Definitely will be booking again !”

“Terri was wonderful. We met first at her home so Rowdy could meet her dog Luke and they hit it off right away. Terri is friendly and welcoming and I knew Rowdy would be well taken care of in her care. She sent us pictures and always replied to text or calls right away. She has a dog park in her neighborhood and what a wonderful plus that is! I would not hesitate to leave my pet with her again. This is so much better then boarding at a kennel where my dog sits alone in a kennel most of the day. 5 stars Terri!”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing with our pup! She sent us updates everyday and gave him all the belly rubs his little heart desires. He’s a belly rub addict. LoL!! She was extremely understanding when our trip took a little longer then expected. I appreciated her and her family so much. They’re amazing. We definitely will be using her for boarding our pup in the future. Thanks again Ashley!”

“Nikki has been fantastic watching Frankie! She has plenty of other dogs for her to play with and she knows dogs really well so I trust her completely! I highly recommend her to anyone looking to have daycare or additional training for their dogs.”

“I’m delighted with the care that Branden and Nikkishae provided. Pepper seemed well cared for and she was pretty relaxed compared to other times when I picked her up. She usually pulls as hard as she can to get in the car at pick up, but this time she actually sat for me while I was talking with Nikkishae at the front door. I’m so happy I found them and I will definitely be a return client.”

“First time users here! She went above and beyond! Truly connected with my pups and put my mind at ease while we were away. The pups had so much fun and were exhausted when they came home from playing all day. We will definitely be using Ashley again.”

“Terri had been such a great sitter!! I’ve used her multiple times now because of the great experience with her.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, especially when it comes to cats. I grew up in a household that always had multiple cats. I just recently moved from my parents house where we had four, including a rescue I brought back from an overseas deployment. I also have experience caring for senior pets, including my childhood pet, a 14 year old Siamese in her final years, where I provided comfort, medication support, and close monitoring. I’ve fostered multiple litters of kittens, including bottle feeding, scheduled care, and neonatal support (including stimulation for bathroom and feeding routines), so I’m very comfortable with young or high needs animals. I also have hands on experience caring for dogs, including a family chocolate lab that I regularly walked, took on beach trips, transported safely in my vehicle, and maintained consistent feeding and exercise routines for. I’m comfortable managing leash behavior, high energy dogs, and ensuring pets get both physical activity and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine compassion and attentiveness. I treat every pet like my own and take the time to understand their personality, needs, and comfort level. Treating any animal I encounter humanely is my calling. It is humans responsibility to care for them. I’m a substitute teacher, so I’m able to plan my days around the pets I’m caring for. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I make sure to stay consistent with each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. I have no pets or children at home. I have a huge backyard that isn’t completely fenced, but property behind it. No smoking or people coming in/out for any reasons.
About: I have been raised alongside animals all my life. I've had dogs for as long as I remember ranging from pitbulls to great danes, and from chihuahuas to jack russells.

Please note that I may not always be able to respond to text messages immediately while I am in class or focused on work, but I will always check in and provide updates as soon as I am free!

I’m currently between jobs while waiting to begin graduate school in the spring, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Toward the end of August, I’ll begin substitute teaching, but my availability will still remain flexible outside of school hours. Whether your pet needs daytime visits, overnight care, or weekend attention, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. Having worked professionally in multiple doggy daycare facilities, I’m experienced in reading canine body language, preventing conflicts, and responding calmly in stressful situations. As a Dog and Cat CPR certified caregiver, I’m prepared to handle emergencies if they ever arise. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love while keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi! We have over 9 years of pet sitting and taking care of pet experience! I used to work in a dog shelter where there was a quick need for dogs in quick care and for fun playtimes! My husband and I take care of dogs together it helps me especially if the dog is very big and tuff! We are very organized and we are quick to get tasks done. Rey is also bilingual in Spanish and English just in case so there’s no language barrier We also have 2 sweet dogs of our own. We genuinely love dogs and we just love to see them happy it doesn’t take them much to please them and to make their day which we truly have the experience and capability to be able to do that for your dog :) Rey works a part time as a paralegal. She spaces out hours for pet care so she can be able to give any potential furry friend the care that is needed! :) We live in a home with a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs have plenty of safe space to play, explore, and get exercise. We are in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood and make sure every dog in our care receives lots of love, attention, and supervision. We understand life can get busy or unexpected plans can come up, so we are happy to accommodate same-day bookings when available to help provide reliable care when you need it most. Whether your pet enjoys relaxing, playing outside, or staying active, we strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. We treat every pet like family and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and routine.
About: I’ve taken care of every type of animal from cows, bunnies, and chickens to horses, dogs, and cats since I was born, very pet friendly. I’ve even had a chameleon and plenty fish. My schedule is very flexible, I can do pop ins, walks, and I can even take pets to a river to play and run around I will accommodate all dogs needs bathroom wise, food wise, and I will make sure the pet has lots of play time, pets will be well taken care of, happy, and all needs/wants will be met

About: I have been trusted a magnitude of time to support families on trips watching their pets daily. I sent pictures and updates when I am there watching pets. Being in the military, I have days where I can come home early and I am there to support my pets needs and I most of the time give my dog a full of attention I make sure that their pets feel loved that they go on multiple walks a day to get out of the house and stretch out. I also make sure that they are well fed and hydrated.
About: Growing up I lived on a livestock farm so my life for animals came natural and at a very early age. I previously worked as a Vet Tech and still currently volunteer for a local rescue, which is how I got 2 of my babies! I would love to keep your loved companions safe and comfortable while you relax on vacation or take care of business for work. I have a completely open schedule at the moment. I can do potty breaks /walks or over night stays for as long as is needed. I have a fenced in yard in a quite neighborhood. Plenty of toys and blankets for everyone and only the best quality dog food and treats. I also have two very friendly dogs of my own but could keep separate if you prefered. I have no limits for space in my house so furniture and such is fair game. I just want them to be comfortable and feel safe.
About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.

“I am extremely happy I found Ana on Rover. Not only was she patient and loving toward my little senior fur baby, but she also provided updates to include pictures of my fur baby's progress during her stay. I am forever grateful for the care, and attention Ana provided to my sweet little fur baby while she was in her care. Thank you so much Ana!”

“I had an amazing experience with Branden and Nikkishae! From the start, communication was great and I felt completely comfortable leaving my puppy in their care. They were patient, attentive, and clearly have a natural love for animals. My puppy was well taken care of, and I could tell he felt safe and comfortable the entire time. They kept me updated and made the whole process stress-free for me, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be a returning customer and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to watch their pet. They are officially my go-to pet sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with them again.”

“We love boarding our two pups with Kasey and Adam and their other dogs! We have two very high energy, constantly playful puppies and they get to play their absolute hearts out while staying with Kasey and Adam! Every time we pick them up they are extremely well cared for and extremely happy. When we drop them off they run straight into the boarding area or greet Adam excitedly, so we know they think of this place as their second home. Kasey and Adam know dogs and dog behavior super well and it shows, plus they always send lots of pictures and videos when we’re away. Can’t imagine what we would do if we didn’t have this family to board our pups with!!”

“Niki has been great each time I’ve had her watch my Boston terrier. So much so that he even whined when we left the last time! Thank you so much for all of the updates and pictures and for treating him with so much love!”

“Kelli did an amazing job watching my 2yo GSD! Great communication with pictures and videos! We did a meet and greet before hand making sure everything was going to be great! I will definitely be using Kelli in the future to watch my boy!”

“My dogs second stay with Sierra was just as excellent as the first! She is so flexible and easy to work with. Jester plays with her dogs (even though he tends not to care for German Shepard’s - he loves hers!). It’s kind of like doggie camp for him when we leave.”

“Kurt really went above and beyond for my pups and for me as well. When my travel for work got extended unexpectedly, he kept the pups for an additional day until his next client and wouldn’t even take extra payment for it. He even took them to my house for the drop off. Plus, throughout the stay, he took them on walks, to get treats from Starbucks and chick fil a, and took them with him on errands. He also spoiled them with new toys and treats! It was obvious that they were so well cared for and given every bit of love they would get from me while I was away. I was so appreciative of the great care Kurt provided, and the updates he sent me the whole time were really comforting since I could tell the pups were happy and getting so much love:) would highly recommend to anyone!”

“Mikayla took such amazing care of our two dogs! We got tons of pictures and videos of them during our trip. They got to play with Mikayla’s dogs and have a blast! She had such great communication with us the whole trip. We highly highly recommend her ❤️”

“Thank you for giving our baby the best care! We loved all the photos and videos Ali sent. Gavin had soooo much fun with his new friends. We feel safe leaving Gavin with Ali and her family.”

“Excellent pet sitter. I was nervous about leaving my cat with someone as this was my first time. I'm very glad I chose Natalie V. She kept in consistent communication with me and sent me pics! Will definitely use her again!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Taylor! She was extremely communicative from start to finish, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was easy to work with, reliable, and clearly cared about our pet’s well-being. She kept us updated regularly and followed all instructions perfectly.”

“From the moment I dropped Kaine off, I felt completely confident that he was in excellent hands. He took the time to ensure a smooth introduction between his dog and Kaine, which immediately put me at ease. He also gave me a tour of the area where Kaine would be playing—it truly felt like a vacation for dogs. Throughout Kaine’s stay, I received daily updates and photos, which provided great peace of mind. If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would. I will definitely be returning in the future.”

“Ashley always does an amazing job with Sunny and working with us. Not only has Ashley helped us for trips away, our dog has benefited from socialist with other people and pets. Highly recommend!”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing with our pup! She sent us updates everyday and gave him all the belly rubs his little heart desires. He’s a belly rub addict. LoL!! She was extremely understanding when our trip took a little longer then expected. I appreciated her and her family so much. They’re amazing. We definitely will be using her for boarding our pup in the future. Thanks again Ashley!”

About: I’ve raised and taken care of all sizes and breeds of dogs since I was a little girl. I am experienced with puppies, senior dogs, all breed sizes, and anxious dogs who need a bit more nurturing. I’m currently working away from home Monday through Friday 8 hours a day. I am available during those days before 8am and after 4pm. Please feel free to ask further details about my availability. I prefer to take care of pets in your home. If in my home boarding is needed, please ask. I am comfortable crating, walking, or taking them to the dog park if they are dog friendly.
About: I have a lot of patience with our furry friends and recognize all of their own unique personalities and needs. Taking care of animals is very effortless & second nature to me. Maintenance such as dog walks, baths, nail trims, ear cleanings, keeping a clean litterbox, shots, vet visits, simply making time to play, all of these are very essential to a happy and healthy furry life, which I'm incredibly happy providing. Pet care is absolutely incorporated into my own self-care. My animals are my favorite part of my day, every day, and I don't think there would be much self-care on my end without them. I live down a dirt road with plenty of privacy and space to tread. Located in a wooded area far enough from the road so my dogs are off leash 99% of the time. Nearby access to water that we’ve have played in for years. Convenient fence as needed, with a shelter, kitty pools and plenty toys of course. I have plenty of space on my property to accommodate different needs at once. It's about catering to the animal's preference to me.
