“Our dog Honey just stayed with Nancy for the second time and we couldn’t be happier! Her entire family treats Honey so well and we know she gets lots of love while we’re traveling which is a huge comfort. Nancy is the best!”
“From the first few minutes of meeting Alison and Richard, we knew they were loving, caring people who would take great care of our boy. Griffin had an absolute BLAST during his stay! I got updates and pictures every day and felt so at ease. He loves Wrigley and Sunny (the perfect play mates and leaders for him), and so do we! We will continue to ask Alison and Richard to watch Griffin for as long as they let us :) I highly recommend anyone use them if they are looking for a fun, caring, home environment for their dog- and stress free for owners- while they are away.”
“Jamie was beyond accommodating when our flight plans changed and we had to keep our sweet Laney with her an additional night than originally planned. She was very responsive and communicative and diligently sent us lots of wonderful photos of our pup playing fetch, walking, and playing with her dog. Her large backyard is perfect for dogs who need to run during the day. We hope to use her again in the future!”
“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!”
“Would give more stars if I could. Scarlett was amazing! Camo had a great time, I had regular updates and pictures, which made me feel at ease leaving him. Will absolutely be using Scarlett again.”
“Yelena is a fantastic Dog Sitter. I really appreciate the daily photos and video of my dogs activity. I could see that she was very happy being with the family. I am definitely going to use her again.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Caitlin did such a fantastic job with Max! Max has a very energetic personality, and I was afraid I could not find a sitter for the extended stay. Thankfully, Caitlin was able to attend to his needs and kept us updated throughout my whole trip. I highly recommend her!”
“Susan and her family love Penny like she’s their dog. When we pulled into the driveway, Penny couldn’t wait to get out of the car to see them again. There is no greater review than your dog joyfully going to their boarder! Susan sends the best pictures and videos to recap the day. Susan has always communicated quickly. She is our go to boarder for our girl.”
“Absolutely without a doubt the best dog sitter ever! Michelle sent regular updates and pictures of Hershy. She is a loving person that openly loved our Hershy.”
“Mike was great with Legend! This was our first time using Rover services, and Legends first time being with anyone other than family. I was unsure, and worried, but upon meeting Mike was cool & very knowledgeable, took great care of my baby. He sent updates with pictures, daily. He also kept him on the schedule, doing same routine as I, which is very much appreciated. I’ll definitely rebook with Mike, when needed in future!”
“I love this family so much! My Kingston had a ball and felt right at home. He even came back walking better on his leash. Will 100% use them again and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe space for their dog while traveling. Thank you guys again for being so sweet and flexible.”
“Mrs. Brooke and her family are just phenomenal!!! The care and love they given our fur babies while we were away was just incredible. Mrs. Brooke kept us posted and sent updated pictures Highly recommend!!!! Thank you again Mrs. Brooke for your time and effort for caring for our dogs we def recommend and will use her services again!!!”
“Anamika, thank you for making Nandi a part of your family during her brief stay. This was our first time using Rover and you made everything so easy. We appreciated the extra care you took in making sure Nandi adjusted to being away from home. She loved all the petting and attention from your kid and Hazel. We will certainly contact you for future sitting opportunities. Thank a bunch, Fred”
“Lipika was an amazing dog sitter for Oreo and Mocha! She took the time to understand their dietary needs and walking habits, ensuring they were comfortable and well cared for. Both dogs were happy, well-fed, and got plenty of exercise under her care. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Denee was fantastic with our lab. She was attentive, communicative, and genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog at her home and would not hesitate to book again. Our dog came home happy and well cared for.”
“This was our first time using Rover. And Ginia and her family were great. Daisy loved her stay with them. She had so much fun. Ginia gave me updates daily which assured us we made a good decision choosing them to care for Daisy. We will definitely be using Ginia again. Feel confident in booking with Ginia.”
About: I'm a dedicated pet enthusiast with over three decades of experience looking after my own loyal companions, from pup to pooch! I've also got the stamina and soothing energy needed for walking and caring for neighborhood dogs when their owners are away. My furry friends seem to know it too, which makes me smile just thinking about those cuddles and wags they give in return! With the flexibility of running my own business, I'm able to always be available for you on weekdays between 8am and 2pm, plus extra hours as needed. I ensure home entrances are secure, keeping them from running into danger when leaving or entering. I give lots of affection as I attend to making sure they have adequate food and water. And daily walks full of fun that consider size & age.

“Aaliyah was so lovely, going above and beyond to make sure that our cats had everything that they needed! She was so patient and flexible, and we are so grateful to have found a super-reliable pet sitter!”
“Caitlin is awesome! She watched over our cat and gave her all the love and affection we could’ve hoped for while away. 🥰 10/10 would book her again, she is very communicative and helped us feel at ease that our girl was getting taken care of.”
“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!”
“I needed a sitter at the last minute for a family emergency and I found Sarah. She was such a nice sitter for my kitten. She made sure she was well taken care of and played with her and fed her. I wasn't sure how Hazel was going to react to a stranger coming in to our home for the first time, but she seemed to be just fine about it. I will definitely rebook Sarah again.”
“Liz was easy to book with and a great commutator. We enjoyed the silly update photos and all seemed well when we returned. We will definitely book with Liz again!”
“Amanda is amazing ! She took perfect care of my very shy kitty and was the perfect guest in my home . I would highly recommend her as a very competent and capable home/pet sitter .”
“LaJuan was so good with my babies! They're normally very tentative around new people, but they warmed right up to her. I was nervous before my trip because I've never left them for this long before and I've never left them in someone else's care, but knowing LaJuan is also a cat parent put my mind at ease. I knew I could trust her to take good care of my gremlins while I was gone. I'll definitely be booking again with LaJuan for my next trip!”
“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.”
“Alexandra is an absolute ANGEL! She was so wonderful and gave us SUCH peace of mind with how much attentiveness and care she gave to our pets. She is very considerate and great attention to detail for our animals. She checked in and shared photos and answered all of my questions as a worried pet parent. But after her first drop in of the 4 day booking, I was without worry for our trip and at complete peace knowing they were in fabulous hands. I can’t recommend her enough!!!! Our pup Ronan loved her immediately and there is nothing that compares to having our fur babies taken care of in the comfort of our home with someone we trust! We will be booking again whenever we travel! Thank you SO MUCH again, you are amazing!!!!!!!”
About: I grew up with cats of my own. My neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their cats while they are away. I hope to expand my services and provide the best care for your cats and treat them as my own.
“Natalie was absolutely fantastic with my 4 cats! She provided daily pictures and updates, and is great with communication. She goes above and beyond. I will definitely be rebooking her!”
“Taren was THE BEST! We had some issues w/ one of our cats while we were gone & she didn’t hesitate to jump right in & go beyond the scope of a simple “drop-in.” She also took care of my many potted flowers & plants that I had completely forgotten about when we left for our trip. She was communicative, so so helpful, & was amazing in all aspects of kitty-care. We will definitely her again. :)”
“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.”
“Nicole was great! Came to meet the dog the day before leaving so she was well aware of what was needed and to ensure she met Kallie! I got some great pictures and updates while she visited which was greatly appreciated”
About: I have always had a pet cat or several, and have cat-sat in my home for others. I've administered shots and pills to cats. Our home has extra rooms to keep cats separate from the loud and busy dogs (unless your cat is into that!). We have four kids who all love petting and hanging out with your cats. We treat your pets like family!
“Brendan did two drop in visits for my two dogs and I have nothing but good things to say about our experience. He’s punctual, great communication, and follows all of my annoying instructions. He does well with both my senior dog and my younger anxious dog, leaving us with happy pups when we get home. We are booking him again for our week long vacation in August.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Lake Norman of Catawba
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: Hello! I'm a stay-at-home mom with two dogs and one cat. In addition to taking care of my own pets, I have fostered numerous dogs of all sizes and ages. My specialty is medium to large, active dogs who need exercise. I enjoy running and hiking, so if you have a dog who needs outdoor time, please contact me! I also have experience with sick animals who need special care. I have nursed several dogs back to health, including fosters and the strays who find me. I'm available to visit your home for your pet's needs, to feed, walk, administer medication, as well as provide transportation to vet appointments. Our house has extra rooms to board and babysit pets. There is plenty of space in our yard and neighborhood for walks, running, and playtime. I'm excited to meet you and your pet to see how I can be there for you! I'm a stay-at-home mom to three older/independent kids and a baby. I am looking forward to getting out of the house to walk your dogs, provide drop-in care, and/or dogsitting and boarding at my home. I have worked with rescue dogs with violent backgrounds or stress from the shelter. I can read their body language and make sure they are comfortable with me and our environment. Your dog will stay on a leash unless we are in a fenced area. My backyard is fenced in, and I have a finished basement with kennels if your dog needs a quiet place. My two dogs are very friendly, so if your dog is interested in playing, they will be introduced. My dogs are up-to-date on their vaccines.
About: "I bring positivity, patience, and love to every pet I care for. I make sure walks are fun, safe, and filled with treats and cuddles—because pets deserve the best!" "I integrate pet care into my routine by making sure every furry friend I watch gets dedicated time every day for walks, play, and companionship. I’m flexible with schedules and can adjust to the needs of each pet." I follow the instructions provided by the pet owner carefully. I ensure pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of attention and playtime. I keep their space clean, provide fresh water, and monitor their health and mood during every visit."
“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.”
“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!!”
“Katherine was great. As a first time dog-mom, she put all my fears at ease by answering any questions I had and my pup had a great time! Will definitely be using Katherine in the future.”
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.

“We were very satisfied with our dog sitter Erin. This was Denver's very first experience being left with a sitter and she made him feel relaxed and safe. We were a little late because of traffic and she was very understanding. Would definitely use her again if we were in the area and highly recommend her.”
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.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and truly love caring for animals. I have experience with both dogs and cats and provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet. Also a breeder, I have lots of experience with puppies. Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and lots of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like family. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or extra attention, I’m here to help and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away! 🐾 Currently we are waiting for our fence to be installed, I’ll keep you updated on when it will be done. Your fur babies are my main focus, We will gladly follow special instructions/ schedules per request for each fur friend, lots of walks, play and lots of attention.
“Jasmine took wonderful care of our dog during several daytime visits. She is highly knowledgeable about dogs, especially those with separation anxiety, and she knows exactly how to handle sensitive situations with calm confidence. Her communication is clear, consistent, and straightforward. She was also extremely accommodating, making sure we felt comfortable and reassured every step of the way. It was clear that our dog was in capable, caring hands. I highly recommend her for both pet sitting and training.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover with extensive professional experience in both the pet boarding and veterinary industries, I understand the importance of providing pets with safe, reliable, and compassionate care. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, ensuring their physical well-being, comfort, and happiness. My background in veterinary operations has given me valuable knowledge of animal health, behavior, medication administration, and recognizing signs that a pet may need additional attention. In addition, my experience managing pet boarding facilities has allowed me to care for pets in a variety of settings while maintaining high standards of safety. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra companionship while you're away, I will treat them like one of my own. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to providing every pet with the exercise, affection, and individualized care they deserve, giving pet parents peace of mind while they're away. When your pet stays with me, you can expect a calm, loving, and attentive environment where they are truly cared for like family. I have extensive experience in both pet boarding and veterinary operations, so I’m comfortable handling pets of all personalities, sizes, and needs. I currently have a flexible schedule and am not working another job, which means I have plenty of time to spend with your furry baby—whether that’s playing, going on walks, or simply giving them companionship and attention throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, long walks, and boarding either in your home or mine, depending on what works best for you and your pet. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they are in responsible, loving hands. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel secure, relaxed, and cared for. Pets are always supervised, and I provide a safe, clean environment for rest, play, and daily care. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being. I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding, medications, and special routines.

“Luna loves coming to Lauren's house! Lauren takes lots of pictures to show what a fun day she had and makes this process so seamless and easy! Luna can't wait to spend more time with Lauren and her pups!”
“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 am a motivated, gentle, loving, and caring dog mom who will treat your fur babies like my own. I have a big fenced-in backyard where they can run and play, plus a doggie pool for extra fun. I am experienced Vet tech and currently a student, which has helped me become responsible, organized, and dependable. Dogs have a special place in my heart, and I believe they deserve love, patience, and care because to them, we are their whole world.
“Madison, Remington and Sweet Maggie made our Nyla feel right at home! She was hesitant at first but they were so patient with her. Their home is so warm and welcoming with a perfect little backyard that Nyla could in and out of at leisure. We loved getting all of the sweet photos and videos as well. Nyla was happy and appropriately exhausted when we picked her up. They will be regulars for us for sure!”
About: I have taken care of my household dogs for over 20 years now. I joined the military in 2016 as a dog trainer and instantly fell in love with the profession. When I separated from the military in 2022, I continued to board pets as well as train dogs for private companies as well as for my business. This is my full time job, so it is not about how your pet fits into my schedule because my schedule revolves around your pets! I live in a 3 level home where I have one level dedicated to boarding and training. So it’s plenty of space to run around inside, or outside on my 1.3 acre lot. I will provide continuous updates and transparent communication.

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.

“Bethany has been walking my dogs for over a year now and she's been great! We've really relied on her while we're working long hours. She's been very dependable. I recommend her to all of my friends.”
About: I have always LOVED animals from a very young age and knew it was my passion in life. I have always been dog sitting sense the age of 13 years old. I dog sit for my grandparents, my best friends grandparents, family friends, and also my friends animals. I did work for a dog kennel for a very short amount of time due to other job opportunities, but i loved the dogs there as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you little ones and fall in love with them!! I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to help take care of your fur babies while you are at work or away. I have a 15 foot lead that I hook my dog up to for when he wants outside. It gives plenty of room for him to explore while also staying in our yard. I am getting a kennel very soon, so your fur baby will feel safe and sound. I have 1 dog that can keep your dog company and help them be more comfortable!!
About: I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have breeding experience as well. I would love to care for you pet and love them like I do my own. I will have summers off starting in mid-June. My evenings right now are pretty open along with some weekends to care for your pets/pets. Evenings would be after 5 pm until June -mi-August. I have a fenced yard, open areas for walking and playing. I have a dark park nearby as well as a large walking path. I can accommodate your needs for your pets.
“LaJuan did an amazing job with my pup!!! Great communication and went above and beyond to make sure that she was well taken care of while I was away. I would highly recommend letting LaJuan watch your fur baby!”

“From the first few minutes of meeting Alison and Richard, we knew they were loving, caring people who would take great care of our boy. Griffin had an absolute BLAST during his stay! I got updates and pictures every day and felt so at ease. He loves Wrigley and Sunny (the perfect play mates and leaders for him), and so do we! We will continue to ask Alison and Richard to watch Griffin for as long as they let us :) I highly recommend anyone use them if they are looking for a fun, caring, home environment for their dog- and stress free for owners- while they are away.”
“Jamie was beyond accommodating when our flight plans changed and we had to keep our sweet Laney with her an additional night than originally planned. She was very responsive and communicative and diligently sent us lots of wonderful photos of our pup playing fetch, walking, and playing with her dog. Her large backyard is perfect for dogs who need to run during the day. We hope to use her again in the future!”
“Would give more stars if I could. Scarlett was amazing! Camo had a great time, I had regular updates and pictures, which made me feel at ease leaving him. Will absolutely be using Scarlett 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.”
“Caitlin did such a fantastic job with Max! Max has a very energetic personality, and I was afraid I could not find a sitter for the extended stay. Thankfully, Caitlin was able to attend to his needs and kept us updated throughout my whole trip. I highly recommend her!”
“Susan and her family love Penny like she’s their dog. When we pulled into the driveway, Penny couldn’t wait to get out of the car to see them again. There is no greater review than your dog joyfully going to their boarder! Susan sends the best pictures and videos to recap the day. Susan has always communicated quickly. She is our go to boarder for our girl.”
“Mike was great with Legend! This was our first time using Rover services, and Legends first time being with anyone other than family. I was unsure, and worried, but upon meeting Mike was cool & very knowledgeable, took great care of my baby. He sent updates with pictures, daily. He also kept him on the schedule, doing same routine as I, which is very much appreciated. I’ll definitely rebook with Mike, when needed in future!”
“I love this family so much! My Kingston had a ball and felt right at home. He even came back walking better on his leash. Will 100% use them again and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe space for their dog while traveling. Thank you guys again for being so sweet and flexible.”
“Mrs. Brooke and her family are just phenomenal!!! The care and love they given our fur babies while we were away was just incredible. Mrs. Brooke kept us posted and sent updated pictures Highly recommend!!!! Thank you again Mrs. Brooke for your time and effort for caring for our dogs we def recommend and will use her services again!!!”
“Anamika, thank you for making Nandi a part of your family during her brief stay. This was our first time using Rover and you made everything so easy. We appreciated the extra care you took in making sure Nandi adjusted to being away from home. She loved all the petting and attention from your kid and Hazel. We will certainly contact you for future sitting opportunities. Thank a bunch, Fred”
“Lipika was an amazing dog sitter for Oreo and Mocha! She took the time to understand their dietary needs and walking habits, ensuring they were comfortable and well cared for. Both dogs were happy, well-fed, and got plenty of exercise under her care. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Denee was fantastic with our lab. She was attentive, communicative, and genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog at her home and would not hesitate to book again. Our dog came home happy and well cared for.”
“This was our first time using Rover. And Ginia and her family were great. Daisy loved her stay with them. She had so much fun. Ginia gave me updates daily which assured us we made a good decision choosing them to care for Daisy. We will definitely be using Ginia again. Feel confident in booking with Ginia.”
About: I'm a dedicated pet enthusiast with over three decades of experience looking after my own loyal companions, from pup to pooch! I've also got the stamina and soothing energy needed for walking and caring for neighborhood dogs when their owners are away. My furry friends seem to know it too, which makes me smile just thinking about those cuddles and wags they give in return! With the flexibility of running my own business, I'm able to always be available for you on weekdays between 8am and 2pm, plus extra hours as needed. I ensure home entrances are secure, keeping them from running into danger when leaving or entering. I give lots of affection as I attend to making sure they have adequate food and water. And daily walks full of fun that consider size & age.
“Bri and her family love our dog, Cooper. We had an almost two week trip and we knew that Cooper was in great hands. We're already planning our next booking!”
“Madison could not have been sweeter and sent me so many photos of my dog throughout her stay. She played ball with Ula, took her for many walks, and snuggled with her. She probably had more fun than she does at home! I will definitely use Madison again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Brent was a great puppy sitter and host for our dog Finn! He had plenty of apace and kept a good awareness of the dogs staying at his house. We are very grateful for his kind dog sitting.”
“Arya is awesome - highly recommend! She was very active and loving with our goldendoodle. She also was very communicative with pictures and letting us know how he was doing throughout the week. Definitely would book her again!”
“Joe and Christine were fabulous hosts! They took amazing care of our dog Samson while we were out of town. They updated us with pictures and videos and responded quickly whenever we reached out. I hope we have the opportunity to book with them again in the future :)”
“Ashley was very personable, easy to work with, and was happy to watch Brady with short notice. She told me they took a long walk and Brady loved sleeping under her bed. I was comfortable leaving Brady and would again in the future. Thank you Ashley!”
