“cruz was well cared for and communication was excellent! from the pictures i was sent, i could tell cruz was happy and had plenty of friends to play with. would definitely recommend, we will board with jordan again!”

“My sister-in-law and I left our dogs with her for two days. When we picked them up they were happy and got to meet new friend dogs and a cat. Anna has dogs of her own and cat and all got together to be one happy family. Our dogs must have had some fun together because they were tired when we got home. Was a great experience.”

“Very satisfactory stay! Ross and Sarah cared for my big dog who had lots of separation anxiety, working with her and accommodating her fears. They were kind and understanding - and sent lots of photos to reassure me! I'll definitely use them again!”

“This was our first time using Tara as a sitter and we were very happy with the experience. Tara was professional and clearly knew how to care for and interact with Brandy who is a little timid around new people. Tara worked with Brandy to get her comfortable with a new routine, and showed resourcefulness in getting Brandy to take her meds and be comfortable eating in a new environment. Tara sent us pictures and kept us informed about Brandy's progress. Brandy clearly felt comfortable and content under Tara's care. We will definitely be having Tara care for Brandy again!”
“My elderly dachshund loved cuddling with them, and I loved getting personalized text updates and pictures during time apart from my darling boy. Would def choose Scott and Ellen again. :)”
“Lauren took excellent care of our sweet girl while we had to take a quick out of state trip. She was very patient with our change in travel plans/dates and extremely accommodating and responsive. Louise really seemed to enjoy her time there, running and playing with Lauren's dogs. Lauren sent pictures, gave Lou her familiar spaces with her crate and blankets and her mat she likes, and walked her around outside to let her get acclimated before she took her in to meet her dogs. She has lots of land with fenced areas so that everyone can play, and she clearly enjoys what she does. We will be repeat clients for sure.”

“Evie and Fritz are truly the best dog sitters I have ever used! Our dog Harper is usually very uncomfortable around new people and does not tend to do well when we go on trips. I could tell very early on that she looked happy and relaxed with them after being there for only about a day. They made a clear effort to get to know Harper and make her as comfortable as possible and sent me so many photos and video to keep me updated on how she was doing. Highly highly highly recommend Evie and Fritz, we will definitely be a repeat customer!!!”

“Sarah & Josiah took great care of my little fur ball! He was so happy in pics and when I picked him up. They were great at sending me daily updates & caring for his elderly needs. It gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Thank you!!”

“Britteny took such great care of my 3 dogs! She messaged me with updates, photos, and videos throughout their stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pups in her care, and they were very comfortable being there. I definitely recommend her!”
“Grace is exceptional, above and beyond, caring and attentive. I am a very high-maintenance cat mama with an older girl who needs multiple pills, and Grace handled this effortlessly, sending pictures and reassuring me whenever I needed it. I’ll be booking her again when I have to travel next!!”

“Kenan was quick to respond and easy to coordinate with! This was our first time leaving our English Shepherd , Sam, with a dog sitter and we couldn’t have had a better experience. We were able to take Sam to Kenan’s so he could get familiar with the area before his stay. Lots of room for dogs to run around and play. We also received several photos and updates while we were traveling, which gave us a peace of mind. Thank you so much Kenan for taking such good care of Sam. We will be back!”

“Vanessa was fantastic! We were going out of state for a few days and it was our first time leaving Ghibli with anyone for more than an afternoon so we were nervous but she was so great with keeping us updated and sending pictures. Our boy had so much fun playing with the other guests and running around in the backyard. Will be rebooking for any future trips!”

“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!”

“Our pups spent another weekend with Amy and Alex -- I kind of felt bad picking them up because I know they are so happy there! Trust both of them fully with our boys :-)”

“We love Rebecca!!! 3rd time booking with Rebecca, but first time with our new kitten! Rebecca was wonderful as usual. She is very calm and our cats who are usually very shy are excited and playful when Rebecca comes over. She is awesome!”

About: For over seven years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for my facility’s owners dogs (jojo the goldendoodle, Nash the frenchie, and Finn their pitbull). More recently I’ve been trusted to care for my administrators pup as well! (Her name is milli(berniedoodle) and she just turned 1 years old!🙂 I’ve taught them all how to sit, shake and do nose boops if you ask them too!☺️ There’s also many of other friends I’ve taken care of along the way! Hooch (Blue Pitbull) Bodi (Pitbull) Nixie (tri-colored cat) Nina (Bernise Mountain dog) Jade (Maltese) I currently am working full-time but my schedule is flexible! Usually during the week I have 2-3 days that are short days for me and I get home early around 2-3pm. My pets at home run the whole house!😄 Every morning we get up to eat our breakfast and go outside for playtime/potty. Water is available in all rooms of our apartment! We are super pet friendly household, they can get on the beds and couches and we even have a special accessible dog bed for senior babies and/or babies who have any injuries. We live right beside a park that has a 3-4 acre dog park with plenty of space to run and play! Car rides and pup cups are always welcome and my work is super dog friendly so they can also be with me if necessary if separation anxiety is a problem!😄

“Elena did an incredible job caring for our babies while we were out of town for a week. She spent lots of time loving and playing with our girl, Salem. She even tried her best to win over our semi-feral boy, Crush. We will definitely book her anytime that we need a pet/house sitter.”


“Heidi was very professional and friendly. The cats took to her right away and got a lot of love and attention. All directions were followed and pictures were given with updates. Would book again!”

“We love Lauren and we honestly would not survive without her help every week. She has great communication, is great with her scheduling/timing, and is the best with helping the pups get all their energy out, I also love that she always sends pictures them. They absolutely adore her!! I would definitely recommend her to anyone with fur babies!”


“Paulina was great! She was very communicative and sent photos every day. She went above and beyond to get alternative transportation during bad weather to make sure my cat didn’t miss a meal. I felt at ease knowing someone reliable was taking care of my cat, and my cat clearly enjoyed her visits!”

“Cynthia went above and beyond. Our cats were in good care while my husband and I were away. Cynthia cared for them as if they were her own. She is very knowledgeable and kind. I fully recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”

“Destini always goes above and beyond in making sure she’s helpful and gives our kitties attention. Destini has also been remarkably patient as we adjust to Rover and this new world we’ve ventured into as fur parents. I hope to make it easier for her as she’s made it easy and convenient for us.”

“I can't recommend Shelby enough! She came to my house to meet my cat prior to the booking. While away, she sent me updates and photos and was 10/10 for communication. My house was clean as I left it and my cat seems happy. I'll definitely book with Shelby again for future needs.”

“Gemma looked after our two cats, turtle and fish, while we were away, and we couldn't be happier with her care. Gemma was extremely reliable and caring. She followed our instructions to the letter, ensuring our pets were fed, played with, and well looked after. We received regular updates and photos, which put our minds at ease. All of our pets seemed content and comfortable when we returned home. We would highly recommend Gemma for her professionalism and love for animals.”

About: I love playing with and caring for animals. I know it’s hard to be there for your pet at all times, so I would love to help you with your needs. I love to play, walk, bathe, swim, and do pretty much whatever it is your animal needs. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes and breeds. If needed, I can administer medicines. I am available days , weeknights and weekends at all times. I have had my own dogs and other pets since I was 7 years old, so I am hoping that I can care for your pets the way that I have always cared for my own. Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding on a schedule, meds when needed, and plenty of playtime and snuggles built into my day. I plan my errands and social stuff around animals being let out, fed, and comfortable, so adding your pets into that rhythm feels really natural for me. When I’m in a pet’s home, I stick to their normal routine as closely as possible – same feeding schedule, walk times, and sleeping spots. I do regular check-ins for food, water, potty breaks, and meds if needed, and I always build in playtime and cuddles so they’re not just ‘being watched,’ they’re actually getting attention. I keep the home tidy, follow any house rules you leave, and send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away.

“A huge thank you to Daysi! I was totally satisfied with her checking on my cat while I was away. She was so dependable I know I will be able to leave again for vacation and he will be completely cared for.”


“Grace did a great job watching our three cats! All their needs were taken care of, plus she gave them love. Most importantly, she communicated with messages and photos that gave me peace of mind as I enjoyed my trip. Thank you, Grace!”

“Brittany took exceptionally good care of our cat while we were out of the country with very little access to our phones to check in. We felt completely confident in her abilities on our vacation.”

“This was our first booking with Tara for our senior dog. The initial meet-and-greet session went very well, and Tara's sweet little dogs were friendly with ours. Tara's large, fenced yard was a wonderful oasis. Tara's experience is obvious, and she sent us several text updates with pictures that put our minds at ease while we were traveling.”


About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of experience working in the veterinary field, so your dog’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m confident caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including those who may need extra patience, structure, or special attention. My fiancé has 15+ years of professional dog training experience, which means your pup benefits from consistent handling, basic training reinforcement, and a calm, structured environment while in our care. We work as a team to make sure every dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for. We’re an outdoors-loving household with dogs of our own, so we truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. Our property includes plenty of safely fenced-in space for supervised play, exercise, and enrichment—perfect for dogs who love to run, explore, and burn off energy. Whether your dog enjoys active playtime, peaceful walks, or just relaxing with people who genuinely love dogs, we’re happy to tailor care to their individual needs. You can feel confident knowing your pup will be treated like one of our own while you’re away. I work full-time Mon-Fri from 8am–4pm, and my fiancé is home during the day, only leaving occasionally for training sessions. Dogs are let outside multiple times throughout the day for potty breaks, play, and exercise. We’re happy to feed, administer medications, and follow special care routines as needed to match your dog’s normal schedule. All pet sitting is done in our home only, allowing us to closely monitor every dog in our care. Our backyard is fully enclosed with a 6-foot privacy fence, providing a secure space for supervised play and exercise. The front yard is enclosed with a 4-foot fence and is typically used when my daughter is outside or for small dogs who prefer calmer, smaller play groups. Our home sits on approximately 1.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to stretch their legs while remaining in a controlled, safe environment. Dogs are always supervised outdoors, and we carefully separate playtime when needed to ensure every pup feels comfortable and secure.
“My mini poodle has separation anxiety and Sarah and her husband took great of him. I could tell by the picture of him he was relaxed and felt safe. I can't wait to use Sarah again and recommend that others do the same if you are seeking a warm and kind environment for your babies!”

“Zydae was great with my puppy. She agreed to watch her on short notice and provided pics and videos throughout the day of my girl. I would definitely recommend her!!!”

About: Hello! My name is Aubrey And Family My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets (Cooper) and caring for family, and friends over the years. Pets are great companions and I look forward to meeting many new buddies! I am home most of the time, ensuring your dogs receive constant love, care, and attention. We provide everything they need to feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide a safe, cozy environment for your dogs, giving you peace of mind knowing they are cared for, comfortable, and happy while boarding with us.
About: What makes me special? Everything!!! A dog has always been a family member since I can remember. Thank God for loving parents who believed in bringing all kinds of pets in our home. We had birds, hamsters, and even the occasional snake or frog from the yard! There is a certain bond you get from a dog that you cannot get from any other animal, though...and I am lucky enough to have experienced that. My parents are proud owners of a rescue cat, and my sister's family has 3 kitties in their happy home!! They also have a sweet little gerbil that has somehow survived all of those felines! You can definitely tell we are a family of animal lovers!!! Since February 2017, my family "farm" has grown. I raised 21 babychicks from a day old...8 of which were ours, the rest for 2 other families...then we added 3 more, barely mature, hens and a rooster to our flock. It has definitely been a fun and wonderful learning experience! I have a wonderful rescued Pit, Buddy! We raised those chicks with Buddy around...so he is great with them! It's pretty amazing!!! (Oh...and just to clarify...Buddy will stay home during any visits/stays with your pet(s). That way you'll know your baby/babies are receiving the full attention they deserve!) Buddy is probably the most spoiled dog in the world because I make practically everything for him, from his shampoos (using essential oils) to his treats. He does get the dental treats at least once a day, but other than that...he's a gourmet doggie! I am a stay-at-home pup Mom...so on the 24 hour overnight visits with me, I'll only need to leave a couple of times during the day to take Buddy out to play, etc....he'll be with his Dad all night. Otherwise, I'm all yours, so if you need someone there to take your baby out literally every 2 hours or less, I can do it!! :-) I do Daycare a little different than Rover does...I only offer daycare in your home. I feel this is the best way to keep your pets in a place they feel super comfortable & with a sitter who will keep them happy, healthy and on their schedule completely. I will always keep you up to date on how your pet or pets are doing and will send you plenty of pictures if you wish! Extras services available: Baths with or w/o essential oils, Homemade bath soap with essential oils to-go (made with any requested oils from list), Doggie bag of treats to-go (made to your pet's dietary needs.) I have numerous flours available to meet any digestive issues. - No preservatives & human-grade (though some flavors may not suit human's taste buds!) By the way...I am no salesperson... & will never try to sell you any extras...these are just other things I offer if you are interested. Just feel free to ask if you are interested. :-)
About: DISCLAIMER * As of 10/26/2024 * If i cannot meet you and your pets before the start of the booking, i will not accept the booking. This has become a safety issue for me. I will no longer be able to accept verbal verification that your pet will be fine with a stranger entering the home. (Exceptions are small puppies) I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. My neighbor growing up had 4 cats, that I loved dearly! She was the first person who allowed me to watch her fur babies when she went on vacation! I've pet sat many times since then. Dogs big and small of all breeds from a little pug to a 100lb+ Rottweiler. I own a 85lb pit bull mix and a 10lb weenier dog. 🐶 They are my babies.💗 I can drop in anytime to check on your fur babies. Spend extra time with them. I do bathing, and walks also! If you need your fur babies to be crated, no problem! I will make sure their safety comes first. You can put your mind at ease knowing your pets will be taken care of! This is my full time job, I enjoy every second of it! So day or night I can always do a drop in visit or a walk! Your pets safety comes first! So during a meet and greet I will be going over a small list of questions to make sure I can take care of your fur baby to the best of my ability. With this I create a “pet profile” so when you need to rebook with me I’ve already got a reference to look back at. EXAMPLE; if your dog is good with other animals, or if there is a certain amount of food that needs to be given. These are just notes I make for myself, and so you can rest assured your fur baby is getting the best care!
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets since 9 and taken care of a few others before applying here can drop in for visits at any time during the summer months I currently own an American bully which we love she’s about 6 years old very loving does well with most dogs. Mom of 6 very used to being around dogs and often help take care of my dog as well. Can drop in for 30 minute visits for potty breaks and company , feed and make sure their area is clean before heading out. Can also acomódate emergency visits if necessary
“Grace was amazing! Highly recommend, my dog had other dogs to play with he’s a big puppy so he loves dogs. She was communicating perfectly and was ready to go upon drop off and pick up. Looking forward to another day with Grace when back in the area.”

About: I treat every pet like family—with patience, love, and lots of attention! What sets me apart is my experience with all types of dogs, from playful puppies to gentle adults. I understand how to care for dogs with different energy levels, and I’m comfortable following special routines and giving medications. I also focus on creating a calm, safe environment where your pet feels at home, whether we’re playing fetch or just enjoying cuddle time. You can count on me for dependable communication, consistent updates, and a lot of tail wags! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home! This allows me to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they need throughout the day. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just being nearby for comfort, I’m able to be present and responsive to their needs. My flexible schedule also means I can easily stick to your pet’s routine and provide a calm, consistent environment while you’re away. For boarding and doggy day care in my home, your pet will enjoy a safe, loving, and relaxed environment. While I don’t have a fenced yard yet, all outside time is fully supervised with leashed walks and potty breaks. Inside, they’ll have cozy spaces to rest, toys to play with, and plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I maintain a calm, pet-friendly space where routines are followed to help your pet feel comfortable and secure.
About: I have never gone a year of my life without owning at least 2 dogs. I have always trained them well with leash training, potty, and crate training. I now am training a service dog (with the help of some classes) and am learning so much more about a dog’s health, needs, and how to learn from them as much as they learn from us. I know that when I go out of town I want the best care for my dogs and I want to provide a good place for other dogs to stay as well. I am a full time online student at the moment so I am available all day everyday, with the exception of future appointments or meetings that will not take more than a few hours out of a day at a time. I am typically home watching over my own dogs at all hours of the day; I do work part time on the weekends though and am usually gone for 5-8 hours at a time onFridays-Sundays (depending on the week). I live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood which provides a standard sized tennis court, which we have basically turned into a play park for dogs! We all have contributed toys to leave at the tennis court and I LOVE brining my dog (and the doggie I am watching over) to the court to run freely for a while and play without worrying about other dogs or being on a leash. Because I have a larger dog (110 lbs; he is a gentle giant), I have a large crate and large bed as well! This will be great for any sized dog whether they are crate-trained or not :)
About: We were raising dogs before we had children. Siberian Huskies, Akitas, rescue dogs, and Icelandic Sheepdogs. There have been dogs in our home for over 50 years. Our pets are a part of the family and greet us each day with a licky kiss on the chin. Our grandchildren love to play with Spensa when they visit. Pet care is intentional and a part of our daily routine. With the morning coffee comes the morning run around the back yard. With my breakfast is the dogs breakfast. If we go for a walk, so does the dog! We all just do life together as we can! We have a fenced yard allowing plenty of room to run and play. Our dog is very friendly and is very comfortable being around other dogs. She is current on all vacinations. Should you required you dog to be crated for any reason, we would be more than willing to comply to your requests.
“A great first experience using Rover! Our Finley had the best time, playing and being loved on. What a warm and inviting family, sent lots of pictures and videos. They even gave our pup a bath after they got into some mud. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Thank you!! ❤️”

About: I provide loving, reliable pet care because dogs are truly family. I offer sitting, walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of affection. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I work from home and am extremely flexible, spending most of my day near the house. I have two dogs—one playful Lab pup and one sweet, calm companion—so I’m very attentive to each dog’s unique needs. 🐾 I work From home and I’m very flexible and generally have pets right next to me while working. We take regular potty breaks through out the day. Dogs have free roam of the house while I dont Have a fenced yard we do take revalue potty breaks and I can crate if needed.
“Kenan was willing to take my dog with short notice and was very responsive to messages. He provided pictures and a video. He has a great set up that allows the dogs some shade outside, even on hot days. When I picked up my dog she was smiling and even went to say goodbye to Kenan. It's obvious that the dogs like him and are being well taken care of.”

About: Your dogs are family to me! I’ve been caring for pups for 15 years, with a focus on daily walks, trips to the dog park, and gentle baths. I’m experienced in training young pups, as well as providing specialized care for senior dogs. I always follow your instructions closely, and I’m happy to give any medical care your pup needs. Every dog gets the same love and attention I give my own! I'm currently working from home, which gives me plenty of time to provide your fur babies with lots of attention, love, and care throughout the day! My own Yorkie, JoBella, and I enjoy several walks each day, along with plenty of playtime—especially a good game of fetch, which is one of our favorite activities. I'll care for your dog as if they were part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. When I'm caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a cozy, safe space. JoBella’s already super welcoming, so they’ll feel at home in no time! I keep a consistent routine with walks, play, meals rest and any special care instructions you have. In either case, I stay in touch with updates and pictures so you always know how your pup is doing!
“It was my pup’s first time with a sitter. He’s usually nervous around new people. But not here, he was peppy and playful coming home. The next time going he ran right in like a reunion with old pals. Very impressed.”

“Lindsay is great! She came to meet Cypress first, and they hit it off. Now Cypress gets super excited to see her and didn't even want her to go home. Super appreciate that she can come walk her while I'm working.”

“Brittney was wonderful with my dogs. She was great at communicating promptly and she made sure to always consider them. I really appreciated the service she provided and would definitely recommend her to others!”


“Daysi was fantastic! Every day and for every walk I received a nice summary of their time together and plenty of pictures. I trusted her walking nala and knew she was in great hands the entire time and nala loved being with her! I will definitely use daysi again in the future and look forward to having her watch my fur baby!”

About: Hello! I have owned and cared for dogs for over 10 years. I specialize in small dog breeds of all ages. I have two small dogs of my own, and one has that classic small dog sass! My goal is for your pet to forgot that mom/dad is not around, and have fun/release their energy while maintaining their normal schedule. I have cared for multiple dogs ranging in weight from 5-40lbs for personal clients. I always treat every pet that I work with like they are my own children, because let’s face it, they are! I am currently available every day until I start a new position in August. Then my availability will shift to Monday-Friday after 5:30pm and any time on the weekend. I am very responsive, dependable, timely, and treat each dog like they are my own. I am respectful and will follow any specific instructions in your home!
About: I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 25 years and currently have two spunky Chihuahuas who keep me laughing every day. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from tiny lap dogs to big bundles of energy. I know how important it is to feel at ease while your pup is with someone else, so I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just cuddling on the couch, I make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and cared for. I also have experience with senior dogs and pups that need a little extra patience or medication, so you can trust they’ll be in good hands. At the end of the day, I believe dogs are the best friends in the world, and I can’t wait to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I also live close by to Tanger outlets and the Burlington area. I have a yard for my dogs to run, play with toys and fetch. Also I enjoy walking trails at the local parks or arboretum.

About: I grew up with a German Shepherd and have been caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments for over 10 years. Friends and family have always trusted me as their go-to person when they travel or need help with their pets. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, medication schedules, or just quality couch time, I treat every dog like my own. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I’m currently working from home and make my own hours, so I’ve got plenty of flexible time to care for your pets! I’m available weekdays and most weekends morning, afternoon or night. When I visit your home, I follow your pet’s existing routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walk routes, and any special instructions. I always send photo and text updates so you know your dog is happy and comfortable. I’m careful about securing doors and gates, and I’m happy to discuss any specific needs like medication or dietary restrictions before the first visit. I also do require that I come meet you and your pet before accepting you as a client. I want to ensure both you and your pet are comfortable with me and vice versa.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life ranging from 5lbs to 50+lbs. Dogs have always been a significant part of my life, and I love caring for dogs for friends and family. I’m available weekends for boarding. I am also available most weekdays after work. I will only take your dogs if I’m 100% sure I will be available and with them for their specific needs. I have a loving dog to play with your dog, or I can keep them separated if you like. I let your dog roam my house always, unless you prefer them to be crated with a crate provided. They are also welcome to sleep wherever they want whether that be with me in bed or on the floor/couch - whatever makes them comfortable.

I have a fenced in yard and a sweet dog of my own who is very well trained and well behaved. If you have any questions please ask!
About: I’ve cared for dogs & cats since I was kid and will care for your fur baby like they are my own! I’m an avid walker/runner and happy to help you and your pup in whatever way you need—drop in visits or walks. I have cared for senior pups before and am happy to care for your’s if that’s what you need! I’m a full time PhD student doing research from home with a flexible schedule. I’m hoping to help someone walk their dog or stop in to play with their cat from time to time or on a regular basis if we’re a good fit! Mornings & evenings are generally easiest for me to come by and go on walks, but I can be flexible midday depending on my schedule. I’m currently a Cat Mom who loves to have play & cuddle time when I’m not working (or even sometimes when I am). I don’t have a dog but would take them out regularly on my daily walks! I’m also happy to drop in and visit your pup—for playtime, snuggles, or just some companion time!
“So grateful for Gemma! Our dog is anxious and is cautious when getting to know new people, but she really took to Gemma. Gemma was very patient and easy going and took great care of our pup. We look forward to future visits/walks from Gemma!”

About: Current dog mom of 2 and love to care for all animals! I’ve always grown up with a dog in the home and I began my petsitting journey at age 13 when I began petsitting for my neighbors. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, and fish. I’ve cared for dogs with extra needs (blind, anxiety, behavioral issues, etc.) and am comfortable administering medicine. I’ve watched up to 6 dogs in one household and am comfortable if more are involved! I volunteered at my local animal shelter throughout college working to socialize cats and dogs to help find their forever home! I have a large fenced in yard and live close to walking trails. My dogs are very friendly and love to be social with other, well-behaved dogs! I currently work from home 3 days a week and can offer drop-in visits before 8am or after 5pm. I’m flexible to do one time drop ins or regular scheduled drop ins! In my home, I make sure to keep your pup in a normal routine while you are away. I’m respectful and want you to come home to pup(s) just how you left them!

“Very satisfactory stay! Ross and Sarah cared for my big dog who had lots of separation anxiety, working with her and accommodating her fears. They were kind and understanding - and sent lots of photos to reassure me! I'll definitely use them again!”

“This was our first time using Tara as a sitter and we were very happy with the experience. Tara was professional and clearly knew how to care for and interact with Brandy who is a little timid around new people. Tara worked with Brandy to get her comfortable with a new routine, and showed resourcefulness in getting Brandy to take her meds and be comfortable eating in a new environment. Tara sent us pictures and kept us informed about Brandy's progress. Brandy clearly felt comfortable and content under Tara's care. We will definitely be having Tara care for Brandy again!”
“My elderly dachshund loved cuddling with them, and I loved getting personalized text updates and pictures during time apart from my darling boy. Would def choose Scott and Ellen again. :)”
“Lauren took excellent care of our sweet girl while we had to take a quick out of state trip. She was very patient with our change in travel plans/dates and extremely accommodating and responsive. Louise really seemed to enjoy her time there, running and playing with Lauren's dogs. Lauren sent pictures, gave Lou her familiar spaces with her crate and blankets and her mat she likes, and walked her around outside to let her get acclimated before she took her in to meet her dogs. She has lots of land with fenced areas so that everyone can play, and she clearly enjoys what she does. We will be repeat clients for sure.”

“Evie and Fritz are truly the best dog sitters I have ever used! Our dog Harper is usually very uncomfortable around new people and does not tend to do well when we go on trips. I could tell very early on that she looked happy and relaxed with them after being there for only about a day. They made a clear effort to get to know Harper and make her as comfortable as possible and sent me so many photos and video to keep me updated on how she was doing. Highly highly highly recommend Evie and Fritz, we will definitely be a repeat customer!!!”


“Britteny took such great care of my 3 dogs! She messaged me with updates, photos, and videos throughout their stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pups in her care, and they were very comfortable being there. I definitely recommend her!”
“Grace is exceptional, above and beyond, caring and attentive. I am a very high-maintenance cat mama with an older girl who needs multiple pills, and Grace handled this effortlessly, sending pictures and reassuring me whenever I needed it. I’ll be booking her again when I have to travel next!!”

“Kenan was quick to respond and easy to coordinate with! This was our first time leaving our English Shepherd , Sam, with a dog sitter and we couldn’t have had a better experience. We were able to take Sam to Kenan’s so he could get familiar with the area before his stay. Lots of room for dogs to run around and play. We also received several photos and updates while we were traveling, which gave us a peace of mind. Thank you so much Kenan for taking such good care of Sam. We will be back!”

“Vanessa was fantastic! We were going out of state for a few days and it was our first time leaving Ghibli with anyone for more than an afternoon so we were nervous but she was so great with keeping us updated and sending pictures. Our boy had so much fun playing with the other guests and running around in the backyard. Will be rebooking for any future trips!”

“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!”

“Our pups spent another weekend with Amy and Alex -- I kind of felt bad picking them up because I know they are so happy there! Trust both of them fully with our boys :-)”

“Zydae did an awesome job taking care of my pup Luna, who is very neurotic! She didn't seem stressed at all when I picked her up and brought her home. Will definitely ask Zydae to dog-sit for me again (soon)!”
“Agus and his buddy, Harry Potter, are our go-to boarding hosts. They are both laid back, friendly and accommodating. My pup is always excited to be dropped off at Agus's place and runs inside without a backward glance. He is very pooped and happy when I collect him at the end of his stay with them. Agus is very comfortable handling my pup, and I trust Agus to care well for him. We always look forward to our next visit with Agus and Harry.”

“Emily was great! Our dog Rosie had an awesome time and really enjoyed playing in Emily’s huge fenced yard and with her dog. Emily communicated very well and sent daily updates of Rosie with pictures! I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again for my next trip!”
