“Cathy is the absolute best Rover we have ever used! She sent us frequent updates with pictures, went above and beyond to provide the best care, was extremely flexible with drop-off/pick-up & treated Olivia like she was her own! Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Crystal was great with my senior pup! We enjoyed her sending pictures and updates of our furry daughter. Crystal is caring and patience with my pup and able to take her for walk several times a day.”
“In all my years of moving around and needing to trust a new Rover city in each town, Ashley and her family were hands down THE BEST, most compassionate and caring I have come across. We are returning upon every chance we can!!!”
“Emily and William took great care of my dog while I was away for an extended period. He got lots of attention, and Emily made sure to keep me updated with news and photos. Definitely helped me to relax knowing that Figaro was being well taken care of while I was away. Will use their services again without hesitation.”
“Alice pet sat our 3 cats and dog for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went! This was our first time using her services, and she completely exceeded our expectations. What stood out most was her incredible communication. She sent detailed updates every day—even twice a day at the beginning—along with photos and videos. I wasn’t worried for a single moment because I knew what was going on with my pets in even more detail than if I had left them with my dearest friend. Alice didn’t just follow instructions—she genuinely problem-solved for our pets’ comfort. When she noticed the cats weren’t eating as much, she realized their food was near a cold window and moved everything to a warmer spot. She relocated all their things—food bowls, litter boxes, and water fountain—to the warmest room so they’d be comfortable. That kind of initiative really impressed us. She paid attention to each pet’s unique personality. She noticed Max loves carrying toys in his mouth (he even brought one on a walk and dropped it somewhere along the way!), that Dino meows toward the supply bags, and caught adorable moments like Ashly sleeping with her head hanging off the couch arm. She knew exactly which brush Dino goes crazy for and that Ashly loves being rolled over for pets. She was also patient and gentle with our shyest cat, Kailas, who spent most of his time hiding under the bed. She found ways to bond with him on his terms—leaving lollipop treats near him and noticing he’d quietly eat them when she wasn’t looking. By the end, she even had him eating from her hand! You can tell Alice genuinely loves animals. Her updates were full of warmth and personality that very often made us smile while we were reading them. We had complete peace of mind knowing our pets were in such attentive, loving hands. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She communicated daily with info and pictures. This was our first experience with a dog sitter, not boarding...and we won't be going back to boarding!”
“Tori and her family took such great care of our small older dog who has some health issues including med administration needs and occasional pain due to previous cancer. Everything from getting holly to their home (Tori last minute offered to pick Holly Up and this was a godsend because our trip was last minute and we were trying to coordinate many other things) to start her visit to pick up and updates in between were great. Her sons are very gentle and natural animal lovers so that was not any concern even though our dog generally prefers calm environments. I would highly recommend Tori and her family for caring for your pet!”
“Vanessa and her family took great care of our dog. She provided pictures and updates and responds quickly to txt messages. The backyard is fenced. Very pleasant experience! Would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, safe environment for pet care!! 🐾🐾 NL”
“Ashely was very sweet and with my dog. She send us pictures everyday and give up updates about how our dog is doing. My dog seemed very happy with her and her family. We will definitely go back to her again if we go travel.”
“Sayaka was great with our dog Max! Max had a great time playing and came home tired from his visit! Sayaka was great at communicating with us. We got daily pictures and she did a great job identifying and informing us of a potential medical issue. We are very satisfied by the care Max received and attention to detail provided by Sayaka.”
“Lovely family - I never worried about my dog Cooper at any time. I got pictures of Cooper relaxed and happy. Yara and Angel were very knowledgeable about dogs and very complimentary about my Cooper. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST THANK YOU!!!!!”
“Evil and Fritz were terrific! They were very understanding of our dog’s behavior and needs. They sent photos and messages regularly. Ziggy looked so well cared for and content with them. I’m so glad we found such good caregivers.”
“Kelly was fantastic to work with and was very responsive to my texts. She regularly updated me about our dog while we were away and gave him the attention needed so that he could feel secure while being away from us. Highly recommend Kelly and will use her again!”
“Megan, was excellent with my pup. She was very energetic, and I could tell my dog enjoyed every moment with her. Highly recommend to ensure your pup has a great time while you're away!”
“Yaryna provided excellent and loving care for my dog! My dog is older and requires a bit of special care, but Yaryna handled all of his needs willingly and capably. Yaryna went above and beyond in communicating how he was doing and sharing pictures. I am sure that he was in the best of hands, and I am so grateful for the high level of care that she provided.”
“Denise was great! She sent me pictures and updates. I knew that.Kornwallis was well cared for. Her own dog Grover Cleveland was a perfect host. We would definitely recommend Denise and will use her in the future! Kornwallis approve this message!”
“Agus was great. He took care of our high energy lab for 7 days while we were traveling. He sent regular updates and assured us all was well. We'd definitely book with Agus again and recommend him to our friends.”
“I wish I could give Heather and John more than 5 stars! They took wonderful care of both my timid older dog and crazy puppy boarding for over a week, and sent lots of pictures and updates to calm my nerves about leaving the little guy for the first time. The dogs appeared at home and comfortable from the first day. Heather and John were also flexible about extending for a couple of extra days when weather changed our travel plans, saving the end of our trip. Highly recommend!”

“We cannot say enough good things about Mackenzie. Her communication was seamless, providing us with regular updates that kept our minds at ease. Most importantly, she took phenomenal care of Tanooki, attending to all his needs with so much love and patience. He looked so happy during her visit. It’s rare to find someone this dedicated. We recommend her without reservation”
“We’re so glad we found Sharon to check in on our cats while we were away! We’re new to the area and had to move away from our beloved animal sitters, and Sharon stepped into the role beautifully for our girls. She took great care of them, playing with them and making sure they were healthy and safe in our absence. We’re so grateful and can’t wait to have her back!”
“Gwen cared for my two kitties as if they were her own. She was able to notice a change in behavior of my 16 yo cat and alerted us in time to help her. She stayed with her until we were able to make arrangements to come home early. My cats really liked her too- which is highly unusual. Would 100% recommend Gwen and would entrust our pets care to her again.”
“Shae watched my 2 cats while I was out of town and was great! I felt at ease leaving town knowing she was taking care of them. She provided daily detailed updates with pictures and played with them every day. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ana was great to work with! Very nice. Obviously comfortable with animals. Flexible in setting up a meeting time. I came home to a very happy and healthy cat. I would recommend her to anyone for pet care.”
“Hillary did a wonderful job with our two kitties while we were away! She is a great communicator, and our cats seemed very comfortable with her - and they are usually quite shy. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Whitney — a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom of two! I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, from helping neighbors with their dogs to fostering kittens and keeping friends’ furry family members happy while they’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just quiet cuddles, I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and lots of updates for peace of mind. Years of hands-on care with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. After a full day at work, spending time with animals is honestly my favorite way to unwind. My evenings are calm and flexible, which makes it easy for me to focus on walks, playtime, and quality care. Whether it’s stopping by for a quick check-in or giving your pet some extra love after dinner, I always make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I treat every visit like a chance to relax and connect — it’s not just part of my routine, it’s the best part of my day. Your pets will never feel like an afterthought; they’re the highlight of my evenings! I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood — especially when their favorite humans are away. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and quirks so I can make them feel completely comfortable. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or calm and cuddly, I’ll match their pace and make sure they get the perfect mix of attention, activity, and rest.
“Lyn was a wonderful fit for our family. Our Alvin bonded with her quickly. He looked relaxed and happy in the many images and updates she sent us. One of her best qualities is her quick response time and gift for communication. Our home was clean and taken care of as we would. We would certainly want Lyn again.”
“Annalia is absolutely wonderful! This was our second time booking her to watch Pickle, and she is officially our go-to sitter. She was punctual every single day and sent great photo updates that put my mind at ease. She is friendly, communicative, and truly went above and beyond—even cleaning up a sickness mess and keeping me informed immediately. Pickle was happy and relaxed when I got home. I can’t recommend Annalia enough!”
About: I have been pet sitting dogs (of all sizes and with various abilities and health concerns) and cats since I was 9. I have two cats of my own in Briar Chapel, so I cannot take animals into my own house. However, I am in close proximity to all Briar Chapel homes, making it easy for me to drop by and feed or walk your animals. I am willing to stay overnight in your home if that is what you would prefer. Walking is my favorite exercise, and I'd be happy to take your cats on a walk if that's something you'd like. I have received medical and behavioral training (as a clinical psychology student), which could make me a good fit for animals with health or behavioral concerns. I am also happy to take care of any other animals you may have, as I have experience with frogs, turtles, snakes, and fish. I also have a big car, so I can take animals to the vet or to other places around town if you need it.
“Autumn was great taking care of my cat Pandora. She always informed me about everyting in detail and took nice pictures of Pandora, letting me know she was doing fine. She is a kind person and always stayes on top of everything. I would definitely book Autumn again. Super recommended.”
“Kelly stayed at my house with my cat for 10 nights, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Super proactive in communication, sent pics and updates daily, left the house in great shape (I really couldn't tell anyone had been here!) and was flexible in the end when my travel plans changed due to weather. Oh, and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed hanging out with my cat, which makes it all the better. Hope to be able to hire her for future needs!”
About: In the last few months I adopted a small stray 3 month old kitten, so I have experience providing care and working with very young cats. I have also helped take care of my sister's adult cat.
“Tooba was very communicative, kinda, and understanding of a mix-up. But, most importantly, she was able to coax our skeptical furbag out from under the bed to say hello. I felt very well-cared for!”

“Ashley took care of our Dobby in the most amazing way we could ever imagine. She understood what’s need for the pup beforehand , and was very informed. She kept us informed on how he is doing without even us having to ask for it. She even helped us to load and unload Dobby’s things in the car. She was amazing! I highly highly recommended her and I am so confident that she would take care of any dog like her own as she loves doing it.”
“Angela did a wonderful job looking after my very anxious, older dog - and sent me pics showing her settled in and calm on a day when I was quite concerned about her. I have already booked a 7 day boarding with her in June.”
About: As a fellow pet parent, I know how tough it is to leave your dog. I’m dedicated to treating every guest pup with the same level of care, attention, and love that I give my own dog, Cooper. Why choose us? Home All Day: I work remotely, meaning your dog will have constant companionship and regular potty breaks. Great Backyard: A wonderful outdoor space for safe play and fresh air. All Sizes Welcome: Comfortable and experienced with dogs of all kinds—especially small to large-sized breeds. From exact feeding routines to long walks and cozy evening cuddles, I’m fully prepared to handle day care and boarding. To ensure a perfect fit for everyone, I require a brief Meet & Greet before confirming any first-time bookings. Cooper and I can't wait to meet your furry friend! Because I work from home full-time, pet care fits naturally into my day: Work Hours: Dogs keep me company in my office, and I use my work breaks to take them into the backyard for quick play and potty breaks. Before & After Work: We do long neighborhood walks, structured feedings, and plenty of evening couch cuddles. With no commute, I’m always around to provide constant companionship and stick strictly to your pup's routine! Working from home lets me provide constant supervision and companionship. Pets enjoy a secure backyard for supervised play, daily structured walks, and dedicated care alongside my dog, Cooper, in a safe, loving environment.
About: With a lifelong passion for dogs, I currently have four of my own and bring years of hands-on experience caring for special and medical needs pups. As a former dedicated foster, I’m confident handling a variety of personalities and care routines, while happily welcoming all dogs. Dogs enjoy plenty of activity (or not!) with access to a large, fenced yard and walks in a beautiful, walkable neighborhood. My dogs are relaxed, friendly, and adjust well to new companions. I’m best suited for dogs who are housebroken and have good home manners. No matter if you’re looking for daycare, overnight boarding, social time, or longer-term care, this is a warm and reliable spot for your pup. ***I do require a meet and greet at my house prior to a stay. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be home throughout the day. I’m always home in the evenings and maintain a structured routine for feeding and medication needs. Daily walks are part of our routine with one of my dogs and are available for visiting pups as well, weather permitting. We almost always have soothing music on to keep a very chill vibe! A safe, comfortable stay with plenty of space to relax and explore. My home features a large, fully fenced backyard and a screened-in porch perfect for lounging and watching neighborhood activity (and local wildlife!). I prioritize safety by crating or gating dogs when I’m away briefly, and I’m rarely gone for more than a couple of hours. While I’m home, pets enjoy free roam and can settle in wherever they’re most comfortable—including bedtime. My own dogs are very relaxed but social and engaged. We’re a great fit for dogs who enjoy low to moderate activity and interaction but are also able to settle down and relax or play on their own. For everyone’s comfort and safety, visiting pups should be friendly, well-behaved, and non-aggressive.
About: I have taken care of my family's pets for 26 years. I just recently lost my dog and am looking to meet new furry friends and help families in need of pet-setting. I have taken care of many neighbors, friends and families' pets, but would love to spend much more time getting to know your beloved pets. I just retired as a Physical Education teacher and coach after 44 years of service to young people, therefore I am ready to dog walk, pet sit and board your furry family pets. I am home every day and have a lot of free time to spend with your pets! I love to spend time outdoors, so your pet would be extremely happy when the weather is nice. I live in a two story home in a very pet friendly neighborhood. The streets are not busy, making dog-walking very safe and easy. I have almost two acres of land...perfect for running around and playing! I look forward to being with your furry friends full time! I retired as a teacher/coach for 44 years and my husband works from home M-F. We are available to give your pups plenty of attention. I treat every clients pet as if they are my own. I give plenty of belly rubs, let them sit with me on furniture and I have a guest suite with a lower bed that I sleep with pets if they wish. They have run of my home. If a parent wants them to sleep in a bed or crate, I honor that as well. We love having pets since we lost our family pet.
“This was the first time we had left our puppy with someone who wasn't us, and we were very nervous. Heather did a great job helping our puppy feel comfortable and helping me feel comfortable by sending me videos. Highly recommend Heather.”
“Jessica is amazing with Sydney! She sends me updates throughout the day of Sydney's adventures meeting new pups or going on walks with friends. Always fun to see those while I'm working. Jessica has been very flexible and receptive if work requires more of my time. Highly recommend!”

I live in a townhome neighborhood with lots of room to walk and a green space in the back. I work at a computer and take regular breaks to move around and check on my cat and other pets that I am hosting. I usually sit on the floor while I work so dog friends and other cuddly pets can sit near me if they want and get pets and attention any time. My space is clean and calm with room for pets to move around freely or rest on a comfy couch or pet bed.

About: Hi! I'm a full time stay at home mom of two kids and a pet parent of two furry family members, Togo (our beloved dog) and Ninja our cat. Animals are a huge part of our everyday life and I know how important it is to find someone reliable and caring to look after your pet because I want the same level of care for my own. I've always loved animals and caring for them has naturally become part of my everyday life. Along with several years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I volunteer with local dog shelters where I've successfully completed different training programs in dog behavior, safe handling and basic obedience. I'm comfortable working with dogs of all sizes including rescue dogs who may need extra patience and love. Since I'm home full time your pet gets lots of attention throughout the day, frequently potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of love. I stick closely to routines, follow your instructions and pay attention to body language so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I love sending photos updates and messages so you can see how things are going while you're away. My goal is simple: give your pet loving, reliable care and treat them like part of our family. I'm currently a stay home mom of two kids (10 and 13) and our two furry best friends Togo and Ninja. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them the attention they need. I have a big fenced yard and a gentle, funny and loving dog, Togo and our cat Ninja who likes to sleep all day long!
About: Hi! My husband and I live in Apex. We have 4 kids, ages 10 and 13 (two sets of twins so only 2 ages!), and one cavapoo. I am a nurse and now work as a case manager from home. Pets have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve passed my love for animals onto my children! We lost our 4 year old goldendoodle to lymphoma and that left a huge void for our family. While we are not quite ready to permanently welcome a new family member, we have a lot of love to give your pet when you are away. You can leave your pet knowing they will be treated just like our own with lots of rubs, cuddles, and walks! Our dog, Max, loves a playmate. Our children are great with animals as well. We have raised our pets from puppies, taken care of family members’ pets when they are traveling, and checked in on neighbors dogs when they are away. There is always someone ready and willing to play with or walk your pup. I work from home so am available to provide your pet the care they deserve. On the occasion I have a meeting out of the house, I am able to schedule it around the needs of your pet as I have complete flexibility over scheduling. My husband is a teacher so is also free to help by early afternoon. We do not have a fenced yard, but there are sidewalks, greenways, and dog parks all around us. We take our own dog on multiple walks per day, so are often outside. We have an open floor plan with lots of room for playing fetch. Because we have raised 2 dogs from puppies, we have a crate available if needed as well.
“Sarah is super flexible with my odd schedule, and gives Ellie pup a comfy and fun stay! Ellie comes home very sleepy and content from her nice days with Sarah. Would recommend.”

“Tina has been a great. She has really helped us during a stressful time. She has really bonded with our puppy. Her ability to walk him is one less thing I do not have to worry about.”
“Alessandra is great dog walker. She understands my dog very well and takes the time to give him extra love and not just walk him. The updates are very thorough and she communicates so well with everything that’s going on. I’m really glad that I was able to find a really trustworthy and patient person like Alessandra.”
“Annalia was great! I really appreciated that she was able to come over (last minute on my part) to do a meet and greet the day before walking our dogs. They seem to love her and it’s a huge relief to know they are being doted on while I’m at work. Also the pictures are so adorable and really capture their personalities well.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. There’s truly no animal I don’t love. My schedule is really flexible throughout the week, and I’m more than happy to work around other people’s availability as best as I can. I truly enjoy making things as convenient as possible so that we can connect without any stress! Upon first meeting I try to the understand the pets emotionally and what their needs may be. Having four animals myself I have learned how each animal can have varying needs and expectations, and how to best work with the pet. Ultimately, I love animals more than anything and would love to be able to help whenever or wherever needed!
“Klaudia has been great with my anxious rescue! She lets my dog set the pace and so my dog has been learning to trust her, which is huge and doesn't always happen with new walkers. Klaudia is very communicative and has been a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to more walks with her!”
About: I've been taking care of pets for over 40 years! I started with a bunny and then a golden retriever puppy who grew fast and was full of energy (I'd occasionally be called to the office in elementary school when he'd break loose to get him from outside and take him home! lol)! As a mom, I helped my children learn to care for various pets - my favorite being chickens. I look forward to using my lifelong love for animals and experience in caring for them to help others when they aren't able to care for their own!! My schedule is not set, so I'm very flexible! After working in the financial industry for years and then working in education, I've been a GIG worker for quite a few years now, so have learned to juggle various things. In NC, I have a fenced yard, and in FL stay in an apartment. I will take great care of any pets I get the pleasure of spending time with!
“Hillary is the absolute best person I've ever used to walk lucy. She's responsible, funny and super caring. Definetly felt like I was texting with a friend the whole time she helped out. She communicates very well and everything she does is out of her heart for the love of the animal. I will definetly be using her again and you should too!. Lucy misses her already I'm sure.”
About: I have had a passion for caring for animals since I was very young. My family has had three dogs, and I helped raise and train each of them. Also, my childhood dog lived to be 14 years old and helped to take care of her as she got older. No matter what kind of pet, I love getting to know the personality of each animal and to see how they are. I am currently working as a preschool teacher with a flexible evening schedule. I am off on Fridays and have lots of free time on the weekends. I love to spend time outdoors, which would work perfect to take some walks with your sweet dogs! I would love to learn about your schedule and how to best take care of your pets! Whether it is taking walks, following a schedule, or specific feeding schedules, I am passionate at creating a space where both you and your pet feel comfortable.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and pet sat for family and friends dogs through middle school and high school. During college and a little after I fostered puppies and dogs who needed special attention. I have a two year old miniature dachshund. I work four on call shifts a week. The days I work change on a week to week basis so feel free to message me to see if i’m available that day/time. I give each dog the care and attention they need and deserve. I take my dogs on walks and my little dog loves to play fetch and go swimming. I have experience giving dogs medication from my time fostering puppies in college.
About: What sets me apart is my focus on creating a true bond with your pet, not just checking in. My goal is to spend quality time with your furbaby so they feel loved, secure, and happy while you’re away. I bring experience caring for both playful puppies and senior pets with special needs, and I adapt my approach to match each pet’s unique personality. Whether that means patient training, gentle senior support, or simply lots of cuddles and playtime, I make sure your pet feels at ease. When you return, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your companion has been cared for with love, and your pet will greet you happy, healthy, and stress-free. I am currently working remotely, so I can do overnights in the client's home with reliable internet and twice-a-day visits/walks for both dogs and cats. I'm available to provide care in the client's home by providing the following: Start with an initial consultation with the pet owner to discuss their pet's routine, dietary requirements, medical history, behavior, and any specific instructions or preferences. Feeding and Watering Follow the pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that fresh water is always available for the pet. Exercise and Playtime. Engage in physical activities and playtime to keep the pet active and mentally stimulated. Take dogs for walks or play games with them in the yard, depending on their needs. Bathroom Breaks Take dogs outside for regular bathroom breaks according to their usual schedule. Clean and dispose of waste responsibly. Medication Administration. Administer any prescribed medications as per the pet owner's instructions. Ensure the pet receives their medication on time.
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child and have experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals taught me how to provide attentive care, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and give pet parents peace of mind. I have experienced with administering medications, anxious, and reactive pets. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. I enjoy spending time with animals and make time each day to feed, walk, play, and provide companionship. My schedule is flexible enough to accommodate pet visits and walks while maintaining a consistent routine, so pets receive the attention and care they need. I prioritize each pet's safety and comfort by carefully following the owner's instructions and maintaining their normal routine. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and closely monitor pets during walks and playtime. I also pay attention to each pet's behavior and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, I have taken care of family and friends animals; and I know what it’s like leaving your heart in the care of someone else. I will tailor my care to exactly what you might need. I know how to give oral medication even I have to be tricky with it, and I will care for your animal like they are my own. I have plenty of time to care for your animals! I am available all week, weekends and on holidays. Unless otherwise specified on my calendar. I will always enter calmly and joyfully so your pet is comfortable, I will make sure all water bowls are full and find out what their favorite toys are! Your pet will hopefully be happy when I am coming to take care of them.
About: Isabella is an independent contractor for the local "Walk & Wag" pet services company, in addition to having her own freelance clientele with Rover. Background check & driving record approved! P.S.: Her pet pictures tend to be with one hand holding the phone and the other a leash (or 3!). While she's not always able to fit in the frame, she's smiling behind the camera. ___________ Isabella has lived in the RDU area for most of her life and has been caring for neighbors’ pets since she was old enough to fill a water bowl and walk her own West Highland White Terrier, Bonnie. Isabella regularly volunteers with Orange County Animal Services’ Dog Day Out Program and previously fostered a wide variety of dog breeds while living in Washington, DC. She finds great joy in caring for Chapel Hill’s beloved pets and being part of the local community. In her free time, Isabella enjoys hiking, backpacking, browsing local bookstores, and spending time with friends. She also speaks fluent French and conversational Russian and Spanish. Isabella earned a Bachelor’s degree in International Affairs from American University and a Master’s degree in International Security from the Paris Institute of Political Studies. Now back in Chapel Hill, she's working remotely & thrilled to be surrounded by trees – and animals – once again. Her schedule is flexible and largely adaptable to her furry clients' needs, including ones that pop up last-minute (so never be shy to ask!). In clients' homes, Isabella treats both the pet and their safe space with as much respect as she'd hope for herself. Ensuring lockboxes are properly secured, fences closed, and individual pet needs are met is essential. It's equally essential for pet owners to know that the extra step is being taken to keep your pet safe and cared for, so regular communication and photos are standard on every service.

“Cathy is the absolute best Rover we have ever used! She sent us frequent updates with pictures, went above and beyond to provide the best care, was extremely flexible with drop-off/pick-up & treated Olivia like she was her own! Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“In all my years of moving around and needing to trust a new Rover city in each town, Ashley and her family were hands down THE BEST, most compassionate and caring I have come across. We are returning upon every chance we can!!!”
“Emily and William took great care of my dog while I was away for an extended period. He got lots of attention, and Emily made sure to keep me updated with news and photos. Definitely helped me to relax knowing that Figaro was being well taken care of while I was away. Will use their services again without hesitation.”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She communicated daily with info and pictures. This was our first experience with a dog sitter, not boarding...and we won't be going back to boarding!”
“Tori and her family took such great care of our small older dog who has some health issues including med administration needs and occasional pain due to previous cancer. Everything from getting holly to their home (Tori last minute offered to pick Holly Up and this was a godsend because our trip was last minute and we were trying to coordinate many other things) to start her visit to pick up and updates in between were great. Her sons are very gentle and natural animal lovers so that was not any concern even though our dog generally prefers calm environments. I would highly recommend Tori and her family for caring for your pet!”
“Vanessa and her family took great care of our dog. She provided pictures and updates and responds quickly to txt messages. The backyard is fenced. Very pleasant experience! Would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, safe environment for pet care!! 🐾🐾 NL”
“Sayaka was great with our dog Max! Max had a great time playing and came home tired from his visit! Sayaka was great at communicating with us. We got daily pictures and she did a great job identifying and informing us of a potential medical issue. We are very satisfied by the care Max received and attention to detail provided by Sayaka.”

“Evil and Fritz were terrific! They were very understanding of our dog’s behavior and needs. They sent photos and messages regularly. Ziggy looked so well cared for and content with them. I’m so glad we found such good caregivers.”

“Denise was great! She sent me pictures and updates. I knew that.Kornwallis was well cared for. Her own dog Grover Cleveland was a perfect host. We would definitely recommend Denise and will use her in the future! Kornwallis approve this message!”
“Agus was great. He took care of our high energy lab for 7 days while we were traveling. He sent regular updates and assured us all was well. We'd definitely book with Agus again and recommend him to our friends.”
“I wish I could give Heather and John more than 5 stars! They took wonderful care of both my timid older dog and crazy puppy boarding for over a week, and sent lots of pictures and updates to calm my nerves about leaving the little guy for the first time. The dogs appeared at home and comfortable from the first day. Heather and John were also flexible about extending for a couple of extra days when weather changed our travel plans, saving the end of our trip. Highly recommend!”
“Julie and her husband were great! They took on a big job with our 4 month old puppy and seemed to do it effortlessly. We really appreciated their updates, personalized communication, and all the loving attention they gave our little girl. We will definitely bring her back!”
“Krystene and her family are awesome! My dog Wilbur has stayed with them twice now and we had a great experience both times. Wilbur can have a lot of separation anxiety, so it was amazing to see how comfortable he was with Krystene even after staying with her only once. Would definitely recommend Krystene!”
“Mary and Jonathan are the absolute best. Copper adores staying with them and we love the communication and updates. We feel so good every time Copper stays with them!”
