Highly-rated overnight sitters - Eno
“Our dogs had such a great time with Katrin! She has plenty of outdoor space for them to explore and truly treated them as if they were her own. She even mixed their meals with rice bc they had upset stomachs! She gave us plenty of updates and pictures, and our dogs always looked so happy in the photos. We will definitely book with her again!!”
“Excellent . My anxious dog calmed down with Alice and went to sleep near her. Alice also sent me the very best pictures. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for her help again”
“So grateful for Giancarlo's excellent care! Our pup does not do well with boarding facilities, but Giancarlo kept him happy and health for over a week. We appreciate Giancarlo's flexibility and frequent updates. We look forward to booking with him again!”
“Erin and her hubby are amazing! They took such good care of my pup, sent daily pics and vids, and even administered her meds. My baby girl had a great time on her “vacation” and got along well with Lani. I would definitely recommend them and will certainly be using them again! Thanks so much, Erin!”
“Emily did a great job taking care of Toro! He is an energetic dog with lots of quirks, and she was great about taking him on walks and making sure he was well cared for. She sent us daily updates and photos and was very communicative while we were away. Highly recommend Emily’s services!”
“Evie and Fritz took amazing care of my dog, Moose, while he stayed with them for a week. They were kind, caring, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love dogs, and Moose absolutely loved his time with them. I also appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and communication throughout his stay, which gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Evie and Fritz to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive pet sitters, and I would happily book with them again!”
“Ruby had a great time at Vanessa’s! She was very well taken care of and had lots of new adventures. Vanessa made sure to send me regular updates with pictures, which I really appreciated.”
“This is the third time Marilyn has taken Gronk. She always does such a good job with our boy. He has a good time every time. He gets plenty of attention and has lots of play time with other dogs. Marilyn is a very trusting dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Krystene and her family were great! They took such great care of our dog while we were away. I got regular updates and photos. I would absolutely book with Krystene again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“David was amazing! He helped us out last minute when our other dog sitter canceled the day before we were leaving town. His house has a nice dog run so the pups can run. His dog Cedar was also welcoming. He provided us with updates everyday and my dog was smiling in every picture. I think my pup had a better vacation than we did. It was raining the last few days of his stay and David gave him a bath! Ten out of ten recommend! Thank you David for providing your amazing service, we really appreciated it!”
“Cathryn was really good to Lucy! Her children loved her like their own. Great yard and very dog friendly. We learned Lucy is not good with resident cats so she won’t be back but we highly recommend for others!”
“Even though my booking was so last minute, Bruna was able to accommodate me and my Koa. Bruna was responsive and kept in touch with me regarding Koa. I really felt at ease knowing my pup was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Bruna to anyone who would want their pet to be well taken care of!”
“Awesome sitter! Definitely will book again in the future. Compared to most sitters, I could definitely tell from pictures of his stay that my pup was much happier with Miyu! She was able to provide him with the perfect amount of attention.”
“Lauren was an amazing sitter! From the get go she was able to get my normally nervous rescue feeling comfortable. And also made me feeling comfortable leaving for with a sitter after recently relocating to the greater Raleigh area. Lauren was extremely responsive, gave me a tour of her property (with a spacious and gated outdoor area) and shared daily photo and text updates. I’ll absolutely be recommending her to all dog owners, and feel so fortunate to have found a great boarding option for my pup!”
“Cathy took on our quirky, energetic boy with optimism and open arms. She patiently took notes on all his behavioral quirks and was happy to accommodate his need for longer walks. This was our first time boarding him, and he seemed to thrive at Cathy’s and enjoy tons of snuggles and pets. It was so nice to feel so at ease about him while we were traveling and we highly recommend Cathy!!”
“Julia did an amazing job caring for our dog, Nova! She sent lots of pictures and was accommodating when we needed an extra day due to a delayed flight. Our dog is anxious and Julia did everything she could to make her comfortable and calm. I highly recommend Julia and would love to have her watch our dog again!”

“Kat took care of my cat for 10 days and was wonderful. She was reliable, communicated consistently with updates, and she clearly took great care of him. Most importantly, he warmed up to her quickly, which give me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend.”
“Brian is incredibly responsive, which has always been very reassuring as a pet parent. We really appreciate him taking care of Chai and giving her the love and attention she needs.”
“Winter did a great job taking care of our 4 cats. I really appreciate how easy the whole process was and how well Winter communicated and kept us posted while we were away. Thanks so much!”
“Sophie did such a great job with Stitch (my cat)! I was nervous hiring someone from Rover as i’ve never done it before but Sophie made me feel completely at ease as she cared for him for 5 days while I was away on a work trip. She sent detailed updates & adorable pictures after each visit & it allowed me to truly be present in my work! Stitch is usually itching for attention when I come back home but he was so sleepy because Sophie made sure he got play time & cuddles in everyday! I’ve also been neglecting my clocks since daylight savings & i’m pretty sure she adjusted the time which was also a small gesture but a huge help lol. Thank you Sophie I will definitely be booking again.”
“Katherine fed and checked on my cats at very short notice. She did a great job and left everything very tidg. She even won over my very shy cat! Can't wait to book her again!”
“Joy was such a pleasure to work with! She was incredibly attentive with my cat and always responsive. She was so good at putting my mind at ease since this was my first time having to leave my pet for an extended period of time. I would book with her again with no hesitations! Thanks Joy!!”
“Devin is THE BEST, absolutely amazing!!! My partner and I last-minute needed someone to drop in on our cat Cleo. Within one a couple of hours, Devin accepted our request! He was a great communicator the whole time we were gone, sent pictures, and updated us on litter clean-up/food. Cleo clearly loved him. Devin will definitely be our go-to sitter!”
“Sarah did a great job looking after my cat! They had great communication and were professional and polite. I’m very happy with the level of care and would recommend Sarah!”
“Our cat loves hanging out with Kim and her cats, hiding in their cabinets, and feeling safe in their home. He's stayed with them a few times now and feels secure and at peace when with Kim and her kitties. We also love that he gets to socialize with other cats. Kim communicates really well and I am happy to have found a really nice person and vacation place for my cat to stay with. I highly recommend Kim for cat sitting services. She's great.”
“I’ve used Sarah many times, and she’s always consistently wonderful!! Not only does she take great care of my kittens, she’s clearly a thoughtful person. I was crunched for time before going on this trip & didn’t have time to fully get my apartment ready. Without my asking, she watered my plants and took out the trash. She’s just so lovely!”
“Excellent service Fantastic with the cats lots of attention! They usually hide from strangers but they come out when Meredith check in . They truly like her. Thank you sooo much Meredith for taking good care of my cats. I feel relaxed and confident they are in good hands!”
“Rachael was absolutely wonderful with my four cats! They have their unique quirks and needs. One of the cats has a strict medication schedule and a couple of them have dietary restrictions. Rachael handled all of this perfectly. It was a huge relief knowing they were in caring hands. I came home to four happy and healthy kitties and that is a wonderful feeling. Thank you Rachael!”
“I’ve lived in a handful of different areas over the time of having Dave (the cat) and using Rover when traveling and my experience with Kelly is the best, by far. She was always attentive and really helped us out with Dave, especially as he gets to be a little more senior. She would give us calls with updates and is just super personable the whole time. Thanks so much for all your help!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Eno
“David is sooooo good with my boys. He helps my older boy up and down the stairs and gives him lots of love. This past session he went above and beyond by helping me with a vet visit. Do not hesitate to set up a reservation with him!”
“Bubba had an amazing time with Adrien and David!! We were worried as first time, dog owners and with her being so young (10 weeks), but they made her first experience at doggy daycare seamless! Could not recommend them more highly!”
“Boba had a great time with Bruna and her dog! She was so communicative, and extremely prompt! We were so grateful for the picture and text updates throughout the dog sitting, and we highly recommend Bruna to anyone who is looking for a personalized care!”

Thanks to his careful attention, Potato ended up having a fantastic day. He came home happy, relaxed, and absolutely exhausted! A raging success.”
“Mocha had such a great experience today! Cathryn was kind and made sure mocha felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and the genuine love shown toward her.

About: I’m an experienced and attentive dog caregiver who truly loves spending time with animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for many dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have a large, fully fenced yard that gives dogs plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. I’m very observant and hands-on, so pet parents can feel confident that their dogs will receive lots of attention, supervision, exercise, and affection throughout their stay. I work from home and have plenty of time and attention to give to your dog(s). I wake up early so we can get outside before it gets too hot. Happy for short or long stays! I have an acre fenced yard that is reinforced every few inches that is full of fun and smells and space to run. They will always be supervised, and indoors there is lots of cozy spots to lay and/or cuddle.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I grew up with dogs: German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Labs, and Dachshunds. Being observant and responding quickly and naturally to a dog’s body language has served me well. I’m able to read their behavior and learn their habits, which helps them get comfortable around me and know I’m someone they can trust. I’m eager to share my life with pups in need of a supportive, caring environment while their parents are away. I’m flexible, prompt, and highly communicative. More importantly, your dog’s wellbeing is my top priority. I know that owners can get busy, so every stay with me entails all the cuddles, treats, and playtime your pup desires! It’s a win-win-win situation, and you’ll get lots of photos and texts so you can take a peek at what we’re up to. You have nothing to worry about while your dog is in my care, so you and your pup both get a great vacation. I work with small to large size dogs, and can host more than one at a time. I also have experience administering medication. I have a very sweet dog named Haddie, a golden doodle, along with a cat, Cinder. When we do our meet-and-greet, Haddie, Cinder and I will get to know your dog, and you and I can go over anything and everything that’s relevant to ensuring a successful stay! I currently work from home, so I will have plenty of time to play and lounge with your pup! I love any excuse to get outside or take your dog for a car ride. I have a fenced in backyard, along with a dog park close by, for your dog to get lots of outdoor time and space. Haddie and Cinder, my dog and cat, are also here to keep your pup company. I can also crate your dog if that is a part of their regular routine.
About: For nearly 20 years, caring for animals has been one of my greatest joys. I have 19 years of pet care experience, including 15 years as a devoted cat owner, and currently care for a flock of chickens and an angora rabbit on our peaceful two-acre woodland property. I offer boarding and doggy daycare in a calm, home-based environment where dogs can enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor time, new scents to explore, and lots of individual attention. Our chickens are securely fenced in their own area, and our rabbit is safely housed in the garage, allowing visiting pets to relax comfortably in their own space. I understand that every pet is unique. Whether your dog loves adventure and play or prefers a quiet place to nap, I’ll work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. For cat owners, I also offer home visits so your feline friends can stay happy and stress-free in the comfort of their own home. When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family—not just a booking. You’ll receive attentive care, regular updates, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pet is in experienced, caring hands. Pet care is naturally woven into our daily life. As a homeschooling family, I have the flexibility to provide attentive care, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. We live on a peaceful two-acre woodland property and maintain a home where animals are loved, respected, and considered part of the family. Caring for animals is already part of our routine, from tending our flock of chickens to caring for our angora rabbit. My wife and I are proud to provide a welcoming, inclusive environment for all families, including LGBTQ+ families, and we strive to create a safe, respectful space for everyone. Our 8½-year-old daughter is a budding farmer and fellow animal lover who has grown up helping care for animals with kindness and respect. Together, we’ve created a home environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and engagement. Because I work from home and homeschool, I’m able to adapt to each pet’s needs and schedule, helping them feel comfortable, secure, and right at home during their stay. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. We have a spacious, open home with no indoor pets, allowing visiting dogs to settle in comfortably and enjoy plenty of personal attention. Our property spans two peaceful wooded acres, providing a calm environment away from busy roads and heavy traffic. Our resident animals—a flock of chickens and an angora rabbit—are securely housed in separate fenced or enclosed areas and do not interact with visiting pets. We also maintain a fenced garden area, helping ensure clear boundaries throughout the property. While our yard is not fully fenced, all outdoor time is carefully supervised. Dogs will be leashed during walks and outdoor adventures, and I closely monitor all activity to ensure their safety. Guests can enjoy plenty of fresh air, woodland strolls, sniffing opportunities, exercise, and enrichment while remaining under attentive supervision. For in-home cat visits, I follow each family’s instructions carefully, maintain your cat’s routine, and ensure your home is left secure after every visit. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I believe safety starts with attentive supervision, clear communication, and treating every animal as if they were my own.
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 7 years old. What sets me apart is the genuine care I give to every pet. I focus on personalized attention, clear communication with owners, and creating a calm, loving environment so pets feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I schedule my day around visits, walks, feeding times, and play so each pet gets reliable care and attention. I treat every pet like family. I follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also provide lots of attention, love, supervision and updates so both pets and owners feel safe and at ease.
About: Hello, my senior dog of 14 years passed away recently, so I am looking to get my pup fix in while also helping you out! You can expect an attentive, caring and fun foster environment when your pet stays with me. I am an active individual who works from home and doesnt mind stepping out of the house 3 to 4 times a day to exercise and play with your pets! I currently live a block away from Duke's east campus, so your pup will have access to beautiful walks around the East Campus loop, the Trinity Park neighborhood, and the Eno River state park, if they are up for it! 🤠 I also have plenty of dog toys, dog beds, and a kennel if your dog is crate trained and prefers to sleep in a crate! I currently work from home, so your pet will have unlimited access to myself and my apartment while we stay together! As mentioned above, I love being active with pets, so whatever your animals outdoor needs are, Im sure that I can fill them! I have easy access to Duke's East Campus loop, the Trinity Park Neighborhood, and the Eno River state park for all play and exercise needs. I am a physically active person, and would love to take your pet out as much as they desire! I do have a kennel available for dogs who prefer to be crated, and if not, I have free roam dog beds, couches and human beds available for all pets who enjoy them!
“Alaina and Nick were wonderful! My pup stayed one day during the day while I visited a friend nearby. He had a great time and was very well cared for. Communication was great before, during, and after his stay. 10/10 would trust Alaina and Nick to watch him again.”
About: I have cared for dogs of all different ages and breeds from senior Italian Greyhounds to Leonberger puppies. Safety and comfort are my top priorities for pups and I believe every dog needs his or her special time to just be a dog during the day. I have a lot of free time to dedicate to your pup! I am experienced with administering medicine to older dogs/dogs with anxiety. I also have the energy and patience for younger dogs, and am able to walk multiple dogs at a time, if it is needed. I’m available for walks and overnight stays. I have reliable transportation for doggy day adventures! I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to ask my any questions you may have. I currently have open availability and am looking forward to meeting new doggo friends for day care, overnight care, walks, and drop-ins. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! When I'm dog-sitting or walking, I am happily and fully committed to your pup. No dog is the same, just as no person is the same. Each family has its own culture and needs. I want your animal friend to be as comfortable as possible, so I will follow any routines or dreams you have for them.

“Kat is such a patient and friendly lady. She’s great with dogs and very responsible when walking my dog. She even brought a raincoat for my dog on rainy days which is so considerate. I’ll definitely come back again to her if I need someone to take care of my dog in the future. :))”
“Kate was a lifesaver I was having a busy day and the pup was being crazy and needed a walk. Kate came right over and walked her and she was chill the rest of the morning! Thank you Kate!!!”
About: I grew up taking care of my family dog that we had for 13 wonderful years. I have been dog sitting for many years and have also volunteered at animal shelters in the past. My partner and I own a home in Hillsborough, where we have a large, fenced-in yard for our own pups, Reggie and Echo, to enjoy. Reggie is excitable and has a loud voice, and though he doesn't always know how to contain that energy, he's a lovebug who just wants to play with anyone and everyone. We've had a number of dogs here to stay with us, including a 12-week-old puppy, and he loves them all! We recently got him a little sister, Echo. After a 2-hour adjustment period, they were fast friends and snuggling as they napped! She's also a sweetheart and is working on learning good manners. Reggie and Echo spend most of their time traipsing around the back yard and napping in the sun. I work from home, so your dog can get plenty of supervised playtime! I can also send plenty of pictures during your little one's stay if you'd like! Let me care for your sweet pup when you are away from home! I work from home full time, so your dog and mine will have plenty of supervised care and time to play and explore the backyard! We live on an acre, and the back half is completely fenced in with a 5 ft fence to keep all pups safe and contained!
“Jessica did an amazing job watching our giant fur baby! She kept in touch throughout our time away, giving us lots of pictures, and took excellent care. She put our mind at ease while we were on vacation, so we knew our baby was well cared for, and went above and beyond. Would 100% recommend her for walks and dog sitting in future.”
About: Hi! My name is Brooke. I am a Traveling Physical Therapist with some time to spare and would love to fill my free time with all the dog love I can get! I have gravitated towards dogs ever since my family got one of our own, and now I can always be found with a dog at social gatherings. I love to tire dogs out with fetch or tug-of-war just as much as I love to cuddle up and give belly rubs! Watching or walking your dog would be just as enjoyable for me as it will your pup, so thank you in advance! I look forward to making many new local dog friends. I am currently waiting to start a contract in Durham for Physical Therapy but until then, I am fully free to love on your pet!! I treat everyone’s home as if it were my own and make sure it is always left in mint condition! I also will clean any pet mess if there happened to be one.
About: Mother daughter team pet sitter. We LOVE animals, We’ve had three dogs and we currently have our best friend Ella who’s an emotional support Animal. We also volunteer at the Animal Shelter frequently with lots of experience with pets. We have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and companionship so they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. We treat every pet like our own and always keep owners updated with photos and messages. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day, including morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins depending on your pet’s needs. I’m flexible with scheduling and make sure your pet gets attention, exercise, and companionship on time every day. We believe pets are human's best friend. We will recognize the needs of the pets and respond accordingly. Be patient and calm with pets that are withdrawn or scared. Pets are sensitive to change and may be missing their owners so we will maintain their schedule as much as possible.
About: Hello! My name is Ayana, and I’m 25 years old. I have a passion for working with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently work professionally in a dog daycare/boarding environment, where I spend my days caring for dogs in group play settings, monitoring behavior, supporting enrichment activities, and making sure every pup stays safe and has fun! I’ve had animals by my side for as long as I can remember and currently have a kitten of my own who completely runs the household. I also have a senior cat who still lives with my mom and will forever be my first baby. Through both personal and professional experience, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after your pets. At this time, I’m offering dog walks and drop-in visits. My work schedule can vary week to week, so I keep my Rover calendar updated regularly to reflect my availability. I can’t wait to meet your pets, learn all their little quirks and personalities, and give them lots of love and attention while you’re away! I plan on providing for your pet as if they were my own while still following all your wants and needs. I will make sure to send pictures and updates!
“Sarah was a life saver for us! A last minute unexpected need for a walker came up, and Sarah was so kind to lend a hand with my leash reactive dog. She was amazing with Schpoozi in handling his special needs, and showed up when she said she would. Dependable, responsible and sweet, what more could you ask for? Highly recommended!”
About: Hello! I am 38, been in Durham since 2013, and I have lived with several friends who had dogs, so I got my start taking care of them when our human housemates were out of town. One of those longtime housemates is a certified dog trainer who had three dogs when we lived together, so I learned a lot from them about dog care and behavior! In my mid 20’s, I was referred to a friend’s parents for overnight dog sitting. I ended up loving it and have been dog sitting for them for 10+years. I’ve also taken care of their three adult children’s pets when they’re on vacation many times, proving that they trust me with their whole family 💜 Three of the dogs I have taken care of have been seniors with medications, special diets and/or needs, such as more frequent potty breaks, or help getting up and down stairs. I enjoy spending special time with those elderly family members. Since then, I have been referred to several other people for overnight stays. I have a few regular clients whose cats and dogs I stay with as well. I grew up a cat person, rescuing and raising kittens from a feral cat colony in our neighborhood. We had six of our own throughout the years who all lived to be between 18-22 years old! I have also taken care of chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs several times. I love to garden and take care of plants, as I have worked on a couple farms for several years and currently live with someone who owns a landscaping/garden business 🌱 I am currently in between jobs while pursuing a new career. Previously, I have managed catering companies for the last 10 years. While I am job hunting, I am very flexible to spend as much time as needed with your pet! When I am staying with a new dog, I make sure to use the owners’ commands, following their instructions to a ‘T’. I believe that dogs can sense when someone isn’t comfortable with them, so I try to establish a trusting relationship where the dog will respect me while also feeling calm with me, during the time when their person isn’t home. I would love to have repeat clients in order to build a longer relationship with them. It always feels so good when I show up to a client’s house and their pet is as excited to see me as I am to see them💖
About: Hello! I am excited for the chance to get to know your furry loved one. I have been around dogs and cats my whole life and understand how important they are to our lives. I will treat them like my own. I bring an easy going, friendly, and understanding energy to every pet care opportunity. I have 3 pets with my partner, one anxious pit bull from the pound, one very particular tabby cat, and one of the most loving siamese cats. They have taught me the complexity of pet behavior and how each one has their own specific needs. I am happy to wear a mask inside your home and test for COVID before arriving. If you are looking for a detail oriented, friendly, queer ,COVID conscious and trusted pet sitter, then I am the right pet sitter for you. Thank you for trusting me with your loved one! I am available for walks, check ins, and night stays during the week. I have open availability during the weekends and holidays. Depending on the request I can do my best to accommodate your request. I will follow your recommendations and requests very closely. I will make sure to give your pets a lot of attention and send frequent updates and photos. I treat all pets with patience, respect, and understanding as if they were my own. Just like people, animals have their own boundaries and ways of communicating.
“Vanessa was a wonderful sitter! She was able to accommodate our last minute request for our two pups. She provided updates with each visit along with pictures. Will definitely use her again!”
“Sarah is a very kind, professional, and reliable dogsitter. She took care of our dog while we were out of town and did an excellent job! Communication was easy as we received updates and photos after each walk. We definitely plan to reach to request Sarah's help should we have future needs!”

And also made me feeling comfortable leaving for with a sitter after recently relocating to the greater Raleigh area.

I’ll absolutely be recommending her to all dog owners, and feel so fortunate to have found a great boarding option for my pup!”
“Cathy took on our quirky, energetic boy with optimism and open arms. She patiently took notes on all his behavioral quirks and was happy to accommodate his need for longer walks.

It was so nice to feel so at ease about him while we were traveling and we highly recommend Cathy!!”
“Julia did an amazing job caring for our dog, Nova! She sent lots of pictures and was accommodating when we needed an extra day due to a delayed flight.

“Jessica and Jonathan were wonderful sitters! We reached out to them on the recommendation of a friend and were so happy with the care they gave our girl. Communication was excellent, the pick up and drop offs a huge help, and above all we knew our girl was in great hands. Thank you both!”
“Although she only watched my dog for a short time, I feel that Jade‘s really took very good care of him. Almost as much as I would. She was very communicative and sent me pictures and always kept me up-to-date on how he was doing. I will definitely book with her again the next time I am in Durham.”
About: I moved to the South 12 years ago after 16 years in my beloved NYC. First I fell in love with Atlanta and for the last two years I've been in Durham, NC, where I just earned my MFA in Experimental and Documentary Arts. Me and my two pit bull rescues Rolfie and Dita have loved walking in the woods, although we just had to say goodbye to Rolfie in 2026 after a full and joyful doggie life. I grew up with miniature dachsunds, but I really got to know dogs and their cues when I rescued a pit bull from the shelter where I was a volunteer dog walker six years ago. I've cared for older, special-needs dogs and feisty high-energy dogs as well as my own. I respect owners' *and* doggies' boundaries, and I know basic training techniques and operant conditioning training. I can't wait to get to know you and your fur kids. I am working from home right now and am prepared to walk your dog three times a day with a longer walk (up to an hour) in the cooler hours at the end of the day. I feed my dog twice day plus treats with training, but I am happy to feed yours according to your preferred schedule I have a fenced yard and shaded porch for surveying the street. Inside I have loads of dog beds. My dogs are welcome on furniture, but I will respect your rules in that regard.
“Shawn and Charles are amazing! They cared for our boy Dash like he was their own. Shawn frequently updated me with pictures and videos and let me know that my dog wasn’t eating much and went the extra mile to make him rice and peas to help. They are great communicators and I would recommend them to anybody. They have a large fenced in backyard which was a huge plus!”
“Grant was wonderful with our dog Lucia, providing several daily activities, walks, and mental stimulation. He was great with communication, very accommodating, and friendly. Grant is very active and attentive and loves to take dogs out on adventures. Lucia was so content when we picked her up. I know she absolutely loved spending time with Grant. I would highly recommend him to any dog owner!”
