“Alison and Richard were great with our puppy and made us feel so much better about leaving him for the first time! They welcomed him into their family and made him feel at home. They have a beautiful home, nice fenced in yard, and 2 sweet dogs of their own that also welcomed our pup! We loved getting pictures to see how he was doing, and have already booked them for another weekend 2 months from now!”
“Very grateful for Nancy accommodating my dog and letting him stay! They have an awesome backyard that he loved and lots of toys to play with. She updated me with photos often which I love! It seemed like my dog had such a great time and felt very loved while staying!”
“Jamie and her family watched our Golden for 4 days and it went beautifully! Great yard, great communication, her kids and dogs seemed to mesh well with Lemon. Highly recommend!”
“Kim S. Did such a fantastic job boarding our baby for 10 nights! I couldn’t be happier with her service! Our Mozzie was so well cared for and had so much fun with her other pups I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home 😉 Thank you Kim for loving our boy while we were gone. He can’t wait for us to go on another trip so he can stay with you!”
“Yelena is amazing. She kept us informed with pictures of our Leo while we were gone. She is great with communication. Leo made friends especially with her dog. Leo can't wait to see her again.”
“Megan and her family took such amazing care of Scout. She went on so many little adventures and came home healthy, happy, and clearly loved. Megan sent daily updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even threw Scout a birthday party while I was away, complete with a cake and a homemade crown her daughter made since I couldn’t be there to celebrate. I felt so relieved knowing Scout was in such good hands, and I will absolutely be booking with Megan again.”
“Camilla was so great with my pup. I received a lot of update pictures and information about her stay. Camilla was flexible with pick up and drop off times as well. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Caitlin is terrific! My dog loved her and she took great care of my dog. Great communication and very accommodating. Will definitely be leaving my dog with her again!!”
“Scarlett was great! Our Stella couldn't have been in better hands. Just enough pictures to keep us in touch and good updates to reassure us. Will definitely use again. Thank you!!!”
“Michelle was so great at sharing pics so I could see how much our Brady enjoyed cuddling and being part of her family for Labor Day weekend. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur baby.”
“This is the first time I leave my dog with Casey. My dog was very happy to the point that he didn’t wanna leave. That means he was well taken care of. Thank you so much Casey. I will definitely use you next time for my dogsiter.”
“Deborah took wonderful care of our pups! They enjoyed meeting the horses and playing with new friends. Highly recommend and already have them booked for another visit”
“Brooke and her family are amazing! They provided a warm, loving home for me to leave my little Gizmo when I planned a last minute getaway for myself. Her teenage daughter immediately bonded with him and immediately started giving him love! They sent my photos of him while I was away. The day I was returning she was flexible with my return time. What else could you ask for?! I will definitely be using Brooke again!”
“Kaitlyn is absolutely amazing! She stepped in last minute to watch Charlie for a week and was a total lifesaver. If you’re looking for a sitter who truly cares and provides a five-star experience, look no further. I received frequent updates and so many great photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Kaitlyn is incredibly kind and has a wonderful, welcoming home that is perfect for a pup. I felt 100% at ease knowing Charlie was in such good hands. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We left our very anxious dog, Judo, with Sarah and Erik for 2 weeks while we went out of state for our wedding. She can really struggle with new people and men, but she warmed up well (it took a few days but that’s just Judo)! I got many updates, pictures, and videos all showing me that Judo was having a good time. I could not have picked anyone better to watch her. She got along great with their dog, Rosie, who was happy to play or just hang out! I would absolutely have Judo stay with them again.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! From the very beginning, they were communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with animals. Our pets took to them immediately, which says everything—especially since they can be a bit particular about new people! While we were away, we received regular updates, photos, and thoughtful messages that gave us complete peace of mind. It was such a relief knowing our pets were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable in their own home. They went above and beyond in every way—keeping everything tidy, sticking to routines, and even noticing the little details that make a big difference. We came home to relaxed, content pets (and a spotless space!), which is the ultimate sign of exceptional care. We would trust them again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend them highly enough. Truly a five-star experience!”
“This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and am so pleased that I did. Hiring a professional eliminated a lot of worry I have when my pets are left home for a few days, as one of them needs medication. Kimberly demonstrated a high sense of ethics: very communicative, always let me know when she would arrive, and ensured the directions were followed for my pets' care. Most importantly, you can tell that she really loves animals and will care for them with the amount of concern a pet owner would themselves. As a bonus, she takes fantastic photos of your pets and shares them with you after each visit so you can "see" them while you are gone. I am happy to be her first client via Rover since she moved to the Lake Norman area and had a very positive experience.”
“Liz was perfect! I needed someone on short notice and she came through for stopping by to feed my cat while I was out of town for a few days. She even returned for an additional night when I was running late. Nothing but good things to say about Liz!”

I'm confident in dealing with a variety of both in house and on leash behaviors to keep the boarding experience as safe as it is fun.

I keep a clean and organized environment to keep your pup out of anything they shouldn't be in. I also prioritize staying on top of messes to ensure your pets safety. I am home most of the day and can provide consistent, adequate supervision and care. I am only out of the house briefly from 7 AM to 11 AM; otherwise I am available to give your pets the love and care they deserve. My schedule allows me to maintain your pets routine and ensure they are not left alone for too long. I provide a safe, clean, and structured enviroment for every pet entrusted to my care. In my home, I keep spaces tidy, pet-proofed, and monitered to ensure your dogs safety. I am attentive to each pets needs, routines, and boundaries. I take great care to minimize stress and make sure your pup has an amazing time. When caring for pets in a cilents home, I respect your space and am sure to follow instructions closely. I prioritize safety at all times including proper leash handling, secure doors/gates, and constant awareness during walks and visits.
“Amanda was great! Always on time for her drop in visits and communicated well. Even took extra time to make sure our cat's gps tracker was charged and working. Will book again when needed.”
“Britt took great care of our cats! Our cats are skittish around new people and she was able to gain their trust with her visits and within a few days, they came out to greet her when she came. She goes above and beyond to take care of them and I will definitely use her again for pet sitting.”
“Caitlin was so great! Me and the boys just moved and they had only been in their new home a couple days before I needed to leave for work. She was amazing! Gave them lots of love and quickly adapted to their routine! Will definitely be using her again!”
“John is amazing! He is very accommodating with his time. Came to meet the pack the week before the schedule date. The dogs loved him. Then the day before scheduled sit I had to reschedule for the following week due to illness. He was able and willing to change dates. I will definitely rebook with him.”
About: I have had pets all my life. My first pet was when I was like 4. I'm not sure if that is included as "experience" because I was so young. His name was Molson. He was a golden retriever and he passed away pretty young; he had cancer and died at 6 (very hard time to deal with as a 10 year old child when that happened). Didn't mean to sound so depressing. Even though I was just a child, I would participate with letting him out and filling his dishes with food and water and playing with him. As of today as a grown up, I have 3 dogs (golden babies), 6 cats (outdoor cats to be specific because I have a hamster and don't want them to eat him), and a hamster named Ted. My dogs names are Lucy, Nala, and Rocky. My cats names are Furby (he is the one I am holding in my profile picture), Gizmo, Stripe, Rambo, Venus, and Zoro. I would like to mention that I enjoy walks, so why not enjoy a walk with a dog and yeah get paid for it too haha. I love all animals. Like for real; I had frogs as pets too. I've never had birds, snakes and lizards, and spiders though. My mom was not ok with that idea because birds were too loud and she hates snakes and lizards as well as spiders. Thinking back, I am honestly surprised my mom was ok with me having frogs. And how can I forget about fishes. I've had fishes throughout my life. My most recent fish was named Bill (he passed away in 2020); I think we can all agree that 2020 wasn't a great year. I am an Amazonian as I like to call myself as I work at Amazon. I work there on the weekends and I would like to find some dog walking and/or pet sitting during the week. I'm pretty flexible. In my yard, it is fenced, so my dogs don't escape. In my house, my hamster Ted is in his cage; I don't want him to get lost and/or eaten. As my kitties go, we have a routine. They will stick around because there is me to pet them and there is food and treats for them too.
“Thank you once again for taking such amazing care of our cat while we were away! Absolutely the best when it comes to professionalism, care, and overall experience! We are so grateful for you!”
“Ashley is amazing. Reliable, responsive, flexible, trustworthy and incredibly kind. She did drop in visits for us for a week while we were away and sent us updates, pictures and videos and made us feel so comfortable knowing our girls were being cared for. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Natalie did such a great job with all of our animals. Our cat loved her and seemed very content when we got home. She sent lots of pictures and it made me feel comfortable while we were away. I would highly recommend her.”
“Jesse was absolutely amazing!!! She went above and beyond anything we could have expected. She took phenomenal care of our dogs and loved on them like they were her own. Her communication was impeccable. We will most definitely be repeat customers. If you’re looking to have peace of mind while you’re away, and if you’re looking for someone that you can trust to take care of your 4 legged babies, Jesse is your person!”
“My cat, Luna, loved her time with Nancy while I was gone for 9 days. Nancy is very dependable and truly cares about animals. She sent me plenty of updates which was very appreciated. I would definitely recommend her and would love to have her back sometime in the future.”
“Emily was reliable, communicative, and patient while taking care of my senior pup. Buckshot is very picky about the people he let's close, but took to her quickly. Typically he gets anxious when I'm on extended work trips, but this time he was smiling in every picture Emily sent! 10/10”
About: I’ve cared for every kind of cat - barn cats, shy kitties, seniors, and confident explorers. I’m calm, patient, and always move at your cat’s pace. I handle feeding, litter, meds, playtime, and keeping their space clean. I follow your routine closely. You’ll get daily updates and photos so you always know they’re safe and comfortable. Shy, timid, affectionate, or independent your cat gets gentle, reliable care every time.
“Lindsey did a great job! She was reliable, trustworthy and our kitty loved her. She kept us posted with check in and check out times and always sent several photos of kitty eating or playing. We are definitely going to hire her again!”

About: My family jokes that I was raised by animals. 🤣 I have had pets since I was born, and considered them my best friends. I have had jobs in dog grooming, some experience in training, volunteered at my local SPCA, currently an active volunteer for Angels To The Animals & even became a full time artist selling commissioned pet portraits! Everything about furry animals & waggy tails brings me immense joy and happiness. Animals calm my soul. Today, I have 3 of the most spoiled doggo’s out there. I narrate their thoughts, talk to them like they’re babies, and they are even insta-famous! They have their own bedroom, closet, dresser, mountains of toys, and an abundance of clothes/accessories. I truly do work hard so my dogs can have a better life. I have experience in housecleaning so I regularly entered people’s homes. Rest assured, I’ll leave your house the way I found it (maybe better if I see an animal mess that needs tending to). I’ll treat your home like my own. I have responsibilities Tuesday- Friday from noon- 1:00 however I’m available before or after. Ideally, I am looking for regular clients that consistently need someone to hang out with their fur babies. I would meet you and your fur baby, and get a lay of the land. If you need me to feed them, water them, give treats, I would just need to know where to access them. For cats, if you need me to clean the litter box, I would just need to know where the bags, & scooper are. Also where you’d like the waste disposed.

“Keith was great and helped us out when we wanted to go out to dinner for a few hours! He watched our sweet pup Noomi and kept us updated with pictures and videos! Thanks Keith, we will for sure book again!!”
“Nancy was absolutely wonderful! She graciously accepted my VERY last minute booking request, was easy to communicate/coordinate with, and a breeze for drop off and pick up. She was just what Mandy needed as we train her separation anxiety. I loved the pictures she sent of their time together. Was very nice to know my pup was in safe, loving hands! And her backyard looks like a dog’s paradise which was perfect for Mandy’s addiction to ball throwing!!”

“My Winston absolutely loves it at Kim’s house! He just struts right in like he owns the place. Her pups couldn’t be any sweeter & we feel so lucky we found her . Thanks Rover for making this so easy.”
“We had the most perfect day because of the most perfect dog sitter. We came to town and we were a little desperate because we had an unexpected day of plans with our family and no 12 take care of the dog. Bethany and her husband were so gracious and kind and their home is perfect. Our little daisy felt comfortable right away and so did we. Thank you for your kindness and assistance.”
About: I have experience walking and caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, including feeding, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and exercise. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or just needs company and care, I’m happy to help. I’m available on weekdays (Monday–Friday) from early morning until late afternoon, 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with flexibility to work some weekends 10am-3pm Saturdays and Sundays. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I pay close attention to their routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care.
About: I have 16 years of small animal care experience and 14 years of large animal care. I am comfortable with following strict routines and I will always give extensive notes. I am dedicated to follow your pets normal schedule/routine 100%. This includes overnight and early morning full care. Their comfort and wellbeing is my main concern. Strictly routine driven to keep pets on their normal routines. Being in a new place or around new people can create stress so I try to alleviate any additional unnecessary stresses.
About: Because I work remotely, pets are rarely left alone for long periods of time. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and energy levels... from a senior dog who became blind and deaf, which taught me patience and gentle, consistent care, to my current puppy, where I focus on training, routine, exercise, and positive reinforcement for high-energy needs. I also have two cats with very different personalities, so I am very attentive to body language and always respect each pet’s comfort level, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I work remotely and am home throughout the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship without dogs being left alone for long periods. My mornings usually start with feeding and a walk or outdoor time. Throughout the day, I schedule additional walks, play sessions, and enrichment based on each dog’s energy level and needs. Because I’m home, I can easily adjust my schedule for puppies, senior dogs, or dogs who need extra attention or routine. I make sure routines stay consistent from day to day so dogs feel comfortable, secure, and at home. Dog care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s part of my everyday life. My goal is always to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment where dogs feel happy and well cared for. I take safety, trust, and comfort very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while providing a calm, secure environment. In my home, pets are closely supervised and never left unattended for long periods of time. Because I work remotely, I’m able to be present throughout the day to monitor behavior, provide regular potty breaks, walks, and attention, and ensure pets are comfortable and relaxed. I keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, and I’m careful to follow any household rules provided by owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and medications are given as directed, and pets receive the level of interaction and exercise they’re used to. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and communicate updates promptly. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel secure and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: I have had dogs since I was born. We have had anywhere from 1 to 4 dogs at a time. As a family of four with two working parents, I have always been responsible to care for my dogs in the way they need. I currently work remotely for my full time job. I tend to do some traveling but also have much free time on my hands when I am at home. My two dogs at home are fully potty trained. I am comfortable taking them out on leashes, cleaning up after them, and crating them if needed.
About: I love dogs and what they bring to our life! Your pup will hang out with a friendly and energetic 5-year old Golden Retriever, his name is Tango and he is great with other dogs! We have a large fenced in yard and we spend lots of time playing ball and chasing squirrels. I work from home and have plenty of time to take care of your pup. I only host one family at a time to make sure I give plenty of attention. I live in a neighborhood with lots of pet friendly walking areas. I have a large fenced in yard and pups are welcome in all living spaces at the house. They are allowed in beds and couches. If your pup is used to sleep in a crate, please bring it with you! For the safety of Tango and other dogs I do require a copy of vaccine records as well as flea, tick and heartworm preventive all being up-to-date.
About: Flexible schedule and lots of experience with dogs & cats of all ages. Reliable, professional and caring. Pets all have their own personalities and I’ll take the time to get to know yours. For visits in your home I can also provide services such as bringing in the mail, watering plants, etc. Goal is to have repeat clients who can depend on us. Hope to meet you and your pet soon! Flexible hours and work from home. Plenty of time and the ability to adjust to your pet’s schedule/needs. Can help with medication if needed also. Lots of loving attention and playtime. Can provide pick up and drop off also. Condo home on the first floor with green space. Central Cornelius.

“Caitlin was AMAZING!!! We booked her for when we were on vacation and she showed our fur babies so much love and attention . She also helped us when a package came in while we were gone. Our animals loved her so much. Caitlin will def be our go to walker”
“Juliana provides great care for my dog Paco. We have a reoccurring schedule set up and she is consistent and thorough with her services. Based on my experiences, I would recommend her to any pet owner in need. She communicates well and provides a very friendly and caring demeanor towards animals. She has proven to be reliable and consistent, which are two things I’d assume all owners are looking for when we are looking for a helping hand. Thanks for all you do Juliana.”

“Keith did an awesome job with my fur baby!! She was so excited to see him each day he came to walk her. I booked Keith for a week to walk my fur baby, and he was consistent and reliable each day. I will definitely book again with him.”
About: It has been a dream of mine to be a veterinarian since I was a little girl, so pet sitting has given me more opportunities to take care of animals of kinds. I've pet sat for friends and family and absolutely love it. I've made close connections with the animals I've sat for and love them like my own. I currently work at a vet office and enjoy seeing the new patients every day! I hope to be a very special person in your fur babies lives. I'm currently a full-time online college student and am a full-time worker as a veterinary assistant. If needed, contact me and we can discuss times and dates to work around both schedules. Because I pet sit and house sit, I play with the animals and cuddle them like they are my own. I stay on their feeding schedule and let them out while I'm there as well. I make sure to keep the owners posted while they are away of any emergencies that may occur. Before owners come home, I'll make sure to wash any linens that were used, wash any dishes that are in the sink, and make sure to sweep up anything that needs to be swept up. I'll take the trash out and will clean the toys up as well. Before I leave the home, I like to leave a note thanking the owner for allowing me to stay in their home and assuring them all that was taken care of as well.

I believe all animals deserve one on one attention, care, & Love. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are met first. Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name. Whether in my home or at a clients home I follow any specific care instructions, maintain a clean space and provide consistent attentions, love and care to help pets feel safe and happy in my presence.
About: Hi! I’m Emily, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own. Whether you need drop-in visits, dog walking, or overnight pet sitting, my goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. During visits, I’m happy to provide fresh food and water, administer basic medications if needed, take dogs on walks, play with them, give plenty of affection, clean up after them, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I’ve spent years caring for dogs and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors, and I’ve always had a love for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know them and provide care that’s tailored to their individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic and loves long walks or prefers quiet cuddles on the couch, I’m committed to making them feel happy and comfortable. I’m currently a full-time student at UNC Charlotte, but my schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week, on weekends, and during many holidays and school breaks. I’m organized, responsible, and quick to communicate, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I strive to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can travel or work with confidence, knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I am currently a student at UNC Charlotte but I have a flexible schedule. I would love to work with you to set a weekly schedule for walking your pup! Or even work with you to on deciding a walking/feeding schedule whenever you take a vacation! While I am not able to care for your pup in my own home, I understand the importance of respecting your space and ensuring that your pup is happy and healthy!

I have a fenced in backyard, security cameras, and friendly neighbors with dogs of their own. Every dog is well behaved, and gets along nicely with my girls.
About: My years of pet care experience range from animal rescue to boarding facilities to volunteer work to doc training and to hospital care so I have a wide range of pet care experience. I work in the animal field, and so it is a daily job for me not to mention taking care of my own personal animals My animals are my children, and I would treat others animals the same way. I believe in being respectful of people’s opinions and the ways that they take care of their animals.
About: With an extensive animal care and sitting background, I bring thoughtful service to all my clients. If you're looking for someone responsible and loving with high energy pets, elderly pets who may need medication, or anything in between, look no further. I'm also happy to take on plant care, aquarium maintenance, bringing in mail, etc. I'm pleased to offer drop in visits where possible as well as home stays. I book meet and greets with clients to find out all the details, and encourage open communication. If you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting, please don't hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I generally have a pretty flexible schedule! We will set up expectations for your pet care and staying in touch in advance of each sit. :) I am big on photos, updates, and good communication in general. It is common to hear from me every day, with a multitude of photos.
About: I have always grown up with dogs and have loved having them in my life. I just moved to the area and adopted a dog myself. I’d love to love on your dogs and give them all the care they need and deserve! I work an 8-5 job Monday through Friday but am remote 2 days a week, off on the weekends, and am free after work. The weekends is when I am the most available, so if your pet needs some extra love I can be there longer on weekends! However, if you just need someone to walk your pup or do a quick check in, I can be there any day. Within your home, I can take care of your pup however you need! Provide me with your pups specific needs and personality and I can tailor my care to them. Perhaps they like more snuggles or more outside play time. We can work together to ensure your pup receives the best care possible. Within my house, I have lots of toys and puzzles which I like to use to make sure the dog is being active both physically and mentally. I love taking my dog on walks or to the dog park to get some social time.
About: I’ve cared for animals for 20 years — big dogs, small dogs, cats, goats, chickens, roosters, parrots, and fish. I’m also a husky mom who understands high-energy breeds and sensitive personalities. I treat every pet the way I want my own cared for: with patience, love, and attention to their routine. I’m reliable, calm, and great with shy, quirky, or anxious pets. I handle feeding, walks, meds, playtime, enrichment, and keeping their space clean. You’ll get updates and photos so you always know they’re safe and happy. Your pet becomes part of my family while they’re with me. I have a flexible schedule and work from home, so it’s easy for me to check in, walk, or stay with your pet when you need me. Just tell me your routine and I’ll match it. 😊 Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I follow your routine exactly, keep a close eye on behavior, and make sure they always feel secure. I give lots of love, calm energy, and quick communication so you always know they’re safe.

“Alison and Richard were great with our puppy and made us feel so much better about leaving him for the first time! They welcomed him into their family and made him feel at home. They have a beautiful home, nice fenced in yard, and 2 sweet dogs of their own that also welcomed our pup! We loved getting pictures to see how he was doing, and have already booked them for another weekend 2 months from now!”
“Jamie and her family watched our Golden for 4 days and it went beautifully! Great yard, great communication, her kids and dogs seemed to mesh well with Lemon. Highly recommend!”
“Megan and her family took such amazing care of Scout. She went on so many little adventures and came home healthy, happy, and clearly loved. Megan sent daily updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even threw Scout a birthday party while I was away, complete with a cake and a homemade crown her daughter made since I couldn’t be there to celebrate. I felt so relieved knowing Scout was in such good hands, and I will absolutely be booking with Megan again.”

Her teenage daughter immediately bonded with him and immediately started giving him love! They sent my photos of him while I was away. The day I was returning she was flexible with my return time. What else could you ask for?! I will definitely be using Brooke again!”

“We left our very anxious dog, Judo, with Sarah and Erik for 2 weeks while we went out of state for our wedding. She can really struggle with new people and men, but she warmed up well (it took a few days but that’s just Judo)! I got many updates, pictures, and videos all showing me that Judo was having a good time. I could not have picked anyone better to watch her. She got along great with their dog, Rosie, who was happy to play or just hang out! I would absolutely have Judo stay with them again.”
“Lipika was an excellent pet sitter who cared for my dog as if he were her own.

Her commitment to keeping him active with walks and engagement was truly appreciated. Thank you, Lipika, for your dedication and care. I look forward to using your services again!”
“Lauren and her husband do an amazing job with my anxious boy Fischer :) Fischer loves going over to Lauren’s and I never have to worry while I’m away because I know he’s in good hands.

Lauren is my go to from now on!”
