“This was our first time leaving Prince with a sitter. She made me feel very comfortable with her warm and inviting spirit and her immediate and consistent communication. She provided updates and a picture of him while we were away. He was happy with her and I'm glad he had a home feeling experience. I will definitely use her again and refer her to my friends.”
“As always--Rosie LOVED her time with Sonia and Jeff. She is never hesitant to go with them and is eager to go and play as soon as we arrive. They clearly love dogs and enjoy their time with them. We are always pleased with the care they provide.”
“Danielle was amazing! Incredible communication and pictures every day! Highly recommend! I definitely would book again with Danielle. Thank you so much for taking care of Buzz 😊”
“Scott was great! I was worried to leave my dog because he has only stayed with friends and I just moved to the area. But Scott put me at ease with his communication, pictures, and attention to details. Banjo was ready to go in when we arrived and acted all excited when he met Scott and his daughter. I am relieved for finding such a great person to watch my baby when I need to travel. Thank you Scott 😊”
“Ashley and family were great! If I could give her 10 stars I would. We planned a weekend in Rocky Mount and booked boarding for our dog at a local boarding place. We dropped her off and before we left they let us know she was too anxious and would not be able to tolerate the whole weekend there. We tried one other boarding facility and they had a similar set up so I knew she wouldn't be able to stay there either. I found Ashley on rover and messaged her about booking for the weekend last minute. Our dog is very anxious around other dogs which becomes aggression because she gets so worked up. Ashley was able to keep her for the weekend and keep her separated from their other dogs in the home. I was very relieved to know she was safe and taken care and that the other dogs in the home were safe too. When we arrive Harley went right in with them and was happy when we picked her up! They were very understanding and accommodated us so we did not have to cancel our trip last minute. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I will definitely be booking with Ashley any time we are in the area.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mitzi and her family were amazing with our senior pup, Stoshu! She sent daily updates with photos and videos, and it was clear how sweet and attentive she was with him. Her home felt like a luxury resort for dogs, and we had complete peace of mind while we were away. We’d absolutely book with her again!”
“Sharon was wonderful with Gracie! She was incredibly communicative and sent pictures and video of my dog throughout her stay. I felt totally confident that Gracie was in good care and getting plenty of love and attention while I was away. I’d happily recommend Sharon and I’m sure I’ll be calling on her again!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of George due to last minute wedding out of state! Received so many picture updates which were welcomed since he usually is by my side 24/7.”
“Sloane was so great with our pup, Sass! Sass is dog reactive and so it is difficult finding people that are comfortable with handling a dog with such personality, but Sloane did everything right. She also kept great communication with me throughout my trip, and made sure Sass was constantly entertained and comfortable. Sloane is a new safe space for Sass and I could not be more thankful!”
“Luke took great care of my dog over a holiday weekend. His dog got along great with my dog which was nice to have some dog socialization. He kept us updated about the stay and sent pictures which was appreciated. Would definitely book again!”
“Dominique is awesome! I was worried about leaving my dog because he has dog dementia. This is a recent diagnosis and I was concerned how he would do in a new place with a new person, but he did well. Dominique was patient with him and supportive. She communicated with me and kept me informed with how he was doing. I definitely recommend her!!!”
“Kelli & Jacob were absolutely wonderful. They took excellent care of Mo, our Mini Schnauzer, for an entire week while our family travelled. This was our first time using Rover and Mo’s first time being boarded. Kelli & Jacob quickly quelled any initial anxieties. They really took time to understand Mo, his habits, preferences, house boundaries, etc. so they could make him feel at home. Communication was excellent before, during, and after. We also received regular updates throughout the week with photos ❤️ We will definitely be in touch for future trips!”
“Luis was amazing with our rescue dog, Zeus. He has major separation anxiety and hates to be left alone. Luis was so accommodating and gave me updates and pictures of our little guy. We will definitely book Luis again!”
“Denise and Oscar were amazing with Chip! They were understanding of my anxiety with using rover and all of chips needs. They sent me photos and updates the whole time he was there. They treated him as if he was one of their own and made me feel he was right at home with them. He was so spoiled and happy being there he was ready to go back! Will always be my go to people now if I need to for Chip!”
“Jeremy and Lauren were excellent! We were pinched for a last minute sitter - and it was a holiday weekend - so we were so thankful to find Jeremy and Lauren to watch our pup at the last minute! They were great to work with and our dog had such a fun time - they have a great backyard for the dogs to play. They sent lots of photos and videos which was so great - definitely recommend and we will be back!”
“Paige was fantastic! She sent updates and pics everyday and our dog looked so happy every time. We were able to enjoy our vacation without having to worry at all. We will be rebooking her for all of our future trips!”
“Hanna is the best. Gives us photos and videos and texts throughout the day to check in on our dog. Wouldn’t and couldn’t recommend anyone else. Thank you Hanna!”

About: I love everything about animals! When it comes to Cats and Dogs they are such great companions and I truly enjoy seeing an animal that is pleased and satisfied with my care, as well as their owners and I will do everything to make sure that happens, I have had professional experience working for a doggie daycare business. I of course am a pet owner myself and know what its like to have to trust someone else to take care of your beautiful pet. I very much value that trust and and take the time to learn different tricks and techniques to provide the best care possible for any type of dog or cat that I could possibly encounter on a day to day basis. I am sure that I can provide a valuable service to you. I work Part-Time, and I keep a flexible schedule so I will have no issue fitting any commitments into my calendar and I always maintain clear communication. Based on discussions with the client I will give as much attention to the animal as possible during service including playing with or without toys, walks, bathroom breaks, Feeding, Cuddles etc. based on the desire of the animal.
“Olivia did a great job taking care of our gang and we look forward to using her again in the future. Great with dogs and cats alike. My dog, Lyla is usually skittish with new people but she went right up to Olivia and felt comfortable right away which is very important”
“Outstanding, Cheryl is wonderful with our pets. Refreshing to know our little ones are so well cared for. They missed her last night. Sending us pictures of them playing was great and let us relax and enjoy our time away knowing our pets were enjoying their time with her. The house was very clean when we returned. Unexpected based on our prior experiences. In short she is the best”
“Abagail was great and did everything I asked of her, and left everything clean and in order. Kitty liked her a lot, too. We would recommend her as a cat sitter, and we will keep her in mind if and when we travel again.”
“Marissa has taken excellent care of my cat Oscar several times now. She’s awesome — trustworthy, communicates well, on time, and is totally comfortable with a rambunctious kitty. You should have no reservations whatsoever booking with her. I know I will again!”
About: Hi! I’m someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pet, so I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just keeping them company, I try to match their routine and make things as stress-free as possible. I’m easy to reach, send updates and photos, and I’m always happy to help, even with last-minute plans. At the end of the day, I just want you to feel confident knowing your pet is being well taken care of.
“Jeneen did a wonderful job with my cat. He tends to be very shy around new people but he seem to really take to Jeneen. She is very reliable and was very good about following instructions. Everyday I was gone she sent me pictures and video of my baby.”
“Nicole did a great job watching our cats while we were away. She sent pictures and let us know when she was dropping in as well. She also watered my plants for me. We will book Nicole again in the future.”
“We arrived home this evening and all the cats were fine. The litter boxes definitely had been scooped and the house was in great shape. This has been the best Rover sitter experience we’ve had. Thank you so very much, Kelly!”
“Kim was fabulous! She did drop in visits for our two cats while we were out of town for 10 days and it was such a relief to have her. We will definitely book with her in the future!”
“This was our first time working with Ben and he watched our two cats for two weeks while we were in Ca. He met us for a meet and greet and then an additional paid for feeding while we were home to practice with our kitties. He is very kind, has a gentle disposition, and we felt good leaving our nervous kitties with him and trusting him in our home. He was responsive the two times I checked in and he reached out to us the morning after returning home. We will be sure to use Ben again!! Thanks, Ben!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, up to three at a time. Over the years I’ve taken in many rescues and fostered dogs from time to time — big or small, young or old it doesn’t matter to me. I’ve also had cats throughout my life. Simply put, I’m an animal lover. Right now I have two dogs of my own, River and Bruiser (an 85lb beauceron and a 35lb true mutt, both rescues, who have traveled cross country with me. They hike, camp and swim but mostly love cuddles. I’m experienced giving medications when needed — oral meds, ear drops, you name it — and I’ve helped several dogs recover post-surgery. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, behaviors and sizes. I’m active and outgoing, so I love taking dogs for long walks. I work from home, so as long as there’s Wi-Fi, I’m happy to house-sit and hang out with your dogs or cats while I work. I’m also available for quick drop-in visits — walks, feeding, water, play, fetch, whatever’s needed. Flexible scheduling works fine for me. I work from home full time so I’m here with them all day. We typically go for three walks a day in addition to play time in the yard and most importantly lots of belly rubs and cuddles. I have a fenced yard where we play fetch, take the sun and play in the sprinklers. Dogs have free reign and are allowed on couches and beds.
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Jennifer has been amazing to work with. She is very professional, and really cares for your animals. Jennifer keeps you up to date on anything related to the visit, good or bad. Several times one of my ill cats hasn't been feeling well during the visit, and Jennifer was able to let me know so that we can tend to her as needed. I highly recommend Jennifer for any and all of your animals' needs.”
“short visit as requested, everything went according to schedule, jacob did a good job with my 2 dogs who were not familiar with him, dogs were fine and happy when i arrived home. will schedule jacob again in the future for a more involved stay.”

I like the lovee they give and have plenty to return Most pets love me and have had a great time with all my clients pets I know you will like the level of care I provide
“What a great experience with Martine and her husband. They obviously made Bryce feel welcomed in their home … as by the second day he went straight to her front door and didn’t look back while I was leaving. Also want to “shout out” her willingness to be a bit flexible with the schedule … (I was meeting a friend locally and wanted to be able to enjoy Raleigh for dinner (which was awesome at The Plate). This pet sitting experience enhanced my visit to Raleigh !!!”
“Kerri and her husband are amazing dog sitters. They sent me pictures and videos during the day and I could see that Ollie had a great time. I highly recommend Kerri and will bring Ollie back when I need another doggy day care.”
“Booked last minute when previous sitter backed out night before doggy day care was to begin. They also have dogs which worked out even better since my pup loves to play. This family is my “go to” when I come up to visit. Can’t thank them enough for helping us for this New Year holiday.”
“Absolutely amazing caregivers!!! My little angel had a blast with Yamy and Alfonso. They are completely understanding and gentle to my little fur baby. 110% booking again!!”
“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”
About: We’re an active, dog-loving couple who miss having a furry friend around - so we put all that energy into the pups we host. We raised a golden retriever for over 12 years, through eight different homes, which taught us how to stay flexible and make any space feel like home for a dog. We’ve also cared for the fur-babies of our friends and family over the years, so medium and large breeds are totally our comfort zone. Carleigh works from home every day, and John is home four days a week, meaning your dog gets tons of attention, playtime, and company. We’re not ready for a new pup of our own yet, but we love having short-term four-legged guests to spoil. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because one of us is almost always home, so your dog will get tons of attention, supervision, and company throughout each day. We love taking breaks to go on walks, play outside, or just hang out with a furry friend while we work. Since we’re already active and outside often, adding a dog to our routine is fun and effortless. We treat every dog like a temporary member of the family. Our home is clean, calm, and set up to be dog-friendly, especially for medium and large breeds. We pay close attention to routines, instructions, and any quirks or preferences your dog has. We’re big on communication - you’ll get updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. Whether it’s play time, relaxing, or sticking to their normal schedule, we make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for from the moment they arrive.
About: I love all animals, I’ve dog sit in the past for families and really enjoyed it. I have prior experience with small dogs, along with larger ones. I’m looking for openings in the Louisburg area. Looking forward to have the opportunity to work with different animals and meeting new people in the area. I believe you have to be patient with all animals and pets especially when you are first meeting them. Always keeping in mind that it’s going to take time for them to warm up to a new person caring for them. I’m currently taking a break from nannying, and have a huge love for animals. I’ve had pets all my life. From cats, fish, hamsters, and dogs; to birds, snakes, iguanas and bearded dragons! I’m excited and can’t wait to meet your pets!! :) Being respectful of people’s homes, personal spaces and overall privacy. My main focus is the well being of the animal, making sure they’re taken care of.
“Gretchen was absolutely amazing with our dog, Molly. This was our first time using Rover, and naturally we were a little nervous leaving her with someone new, especially because Molly can be anxious and has a few special considerations. Gretchen immediately put us at ease. She was kind, attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making Molly feel safe and comfortable in her home. We received updates and could tell Molly was being genuinely cared for, not just watched. Gretchen was also very patient with Molly’s quirks and made the entire experience stress-free for us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and attentive.”
About: I am just your average mother to dogs, cats and little humans running around. I am also your local dog/cat groomer. I have 10 years of experience and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon! I am very confident on handling all sorts of pets, pets with special needs, senior pups, puppies, pregnant mommas, unfixed fur babies and of course pups who might need a little discipline. I am pretty observant on behavior and can tend to whatever needs. I am very active(having 2 boys will do that) but I can also lay back. This also isn’t my first rover account. I used to partner with rover a few years back but since having kids and life changes, had to recreate a new updated account. I’m currently a stay at home momma during the week and groom during the weekend. My hubby is home weekends so pets are never left unattended. I have a fenced yard and love to be outdoors if weather permits. I also won’t pass up a cuddle session if thats what decided for the day <3
“Archer had a fantastic day with Brittany! She kept me updated on how he was doing, took him to the dog park, sent pics, was very responsive. Would definitely use again.”
About: Hi there! My name is Danielle, and I’ve been working with dogs for over 16 years. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for three wonderful dogs and currently share my home with a sweet Shih Tzu who keeps us smiling every day. He loves to make new playmates. I absolutely adore both dogs and cats and know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I’m here to provide a loving and safe environment for your pets, whether you need dog boarding or daycare. With years of hands-on experience and a passion for animals, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them all the attention, love, and care they deserve! With 16 years of experience, I seamlessly integrate pet care into my day. Your pets receive dedicated attention, love and care in a flexible schdule. I take your dog out every 2 hours. I will follow your feeding schedule so they can eat the same time every day. My dog will keep your dog company and even gets along with cats. I will give them a lot of love!
“Ashley (and her family) are the best! PJ gets excited to see them whenever we drop him off and doesnt turn around to say goodbye to us - such a goid feeling to but have to worry about him. We trust Ashley implicitly! We are so grateful to have her as PJ's sitter when we are in Rocky Mount. PJ loves Ashley and her family! ❤️”
About: I have extensive experience working with animals, including working closely with veterinarians, fostering adoptable dogs, providing pet care for family and friends, and having many different kinds of furry family members over the years. Let my experience give you peace of mind while you’re away—your fur babies are in good hands. When you book me for pet sitting, your furry family member is absolutely the priority. Do they like to be active? Then that’s what we’re doing. Are they lazy? I can snuggle with the best of them. Do they need to go out often? Got it. Two walks a day? Done. Whatever it is, you can count on me to provide the best care for your best bud. My pet sitting (and boarding) spots have gone quickly so far, so if my availability matches your needs, send me a message and we can set up an initial meeting so you and your loved ones can meet me and we can all make sure I’m the right fit. While caring for your pets in your home, I can also water your plants, bring any packages inside, put trash bins at the curb if it’s trash day, etc. Just let me know what you need and I’ll let you know if I can help with it. I apply the same level of care to boarding. My fees are a little lower since I don’t have to travel to your pet, but in my home, your pet’s still my #1 priority. I provide the same attention I’d give them in your home if not more, because I know my environment isn’t the one they’re used to. Whether your furry fam needs a fun walk, a cozy place to stay, or loving care while you're away, I'll treat them with the same patience, kindness, and attention I'd give my own. Regardless if your pup is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or a senior who enjoys a slower pace, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. You can count on me for reliable communication, photo updates, and plenty of cuddles, playtime, and exercise. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet has a great experience. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and become someone you can trust whenever you need dependable, compassionate care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week. I do my best to work around your pet's routine to help them feel comfortable and keep their day as normal as possible. Whether you need regular care or last-minute help, I'll communicate promptly and do everything I can to meet your needs. When visiting your home, I leave no trace other than a happy pet. At my house, I have a fenced in yard, pool, dog door I can open or close if your pet isn’t good with those, treats, toys, and comfy spots to rest. The dog I had for 15 years (who recently passed) would absolutely vouch for these little sunny spots that show up in different parts of my house across the day. Regardless of location, I will stick to your pet’s schedule and make sure their needs are met.
“Beast can't wait to visit Ms. Judy and Autumn he is always excited and running to the door. Ms. Judy is so sweet and nurturing I feel comfortable at work knowing she is caring for him. I was very apprehensive with placing him in day care this is his first experience, she puts my mind at ease with all the photos and communication throughout the day.”
“My dog Reese is so happy to spend the day with Arden! By our second and third visits, Reese had learned what it means when I say “you’re going to see your friend Arden today,” and she happy whines in the car when we get close to her house! Very grateful to have her as a backup parent for when I need a break.”

“Cheryl is 10+/10. She is accepting and the BEST in caring for my deaf sweet, sometimes determined Jack Russell mix who has her own mind. We were truly blessed when Cheryl came into our lives.”
“Jennifer is amazing. I will use her again. We went away for a full week and she came to my home and took amazing care of our corgi, Khloe while we were gone. She took her on walks, fed & played with her. Khloe has never, in almost 10 years been boarded and I’m so glad we found Jennifer. She was able to stay in her own home while we were gone & be loved and cared for by a new friend. Use her. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Jennifer and thank you Rover.”

“Taylor was fantastic!! I needed a last minute savior after my normal person backed out and she was there for us. Great communication and was great with my big fur baby. I plan on using her whenever I need someone from now on.”
About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

About: Hi there! My name is Kaity, and I’m thrilled to share my passion for animals through dog walking and pet sitting. Caring for pets has been a part of my life for over ten years, and it’s more than just a job for me—it’s something I truly love and take pride in. Your pet isn’t just another animal; they’re family. That’s why I’m committed to treating every pet I care for with the same love, attention, and respect I’d give my own. With a CPR certification and a medical background, you can trust that your furry friend will be in safe, capable hands, no matter their needs. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or simply making them feel comforted while you’re away, I’m here to provide peace of mind and make sure your pet is happy and cared for.

If you have any questions or would like to chat about your pet’s needs, please feel free to message me here or on Facebook. I’d be honored to care for your beloved companion and look forward to meeting you both soon! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine because it’s something I genuinely love and prioritize. I structure my days around making sure each pet I care for gets the attention, exercise, and love they need, whether that’s through morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I’m highly organized and flexible, which allows me to balance multiple clients and adapt to their schedules. For me, it’s not just about fitting pet care into my routine—it’s about making it my routine. I thrive when I’m spending my time with animals and ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to ensure both the pet and the home are treated with the utmost respect. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs like medication or grooming. I also make sure the pet feels comfortable and safe by spending quality time with them, giving them plenty of affection and attention. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language to ensure they’re happy and healthy while their owner is away. Additionally, I keep the home clean and tidy—wiping paws after walks, cleaning up any messes, and ensuring food and water areas are spotless. If requested, I also handle small tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants. My goal is to create an stress-free experience for both the pet and their owner, so they know their furry family member is in good hands.

“Scott was great! I was worried to leave my dog because he has only stayed with friends and I just moved to the area. But Scott put me at ease with his communication, pictures, and attention to details. Banjo was ready to go in when we arrived and acted all excited when he met Scott and his daughter. I am relieved for finding such a great person to watch my baby when I need to travel. Thank you Scott 😊”

I will definitely be booking with Ashley any time we are in the area.”
“Sharon was wonderful with Gracie! She was incredibly communicative and sent pictures and video of my dog throughout her stay. I felt totally confident that Gracie was in good care and getting plenty of love and attention while I was away. I’d happily recommend Sharon and I’m sure I’ll be calling on her again!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of George due to last minute wedding out of state! Received so many picture updates which were welcomed since he usually is by my side 24/7.”
“Luke took great care of my dog over a holiday weekend. His dog got along great with my dog which was nice to have some dog socialization. He kept us updated about the stay and sent pictures which was appreciated. Would definitely book again!”
“Kelli & Jacob were absolutely wonderful. They took excellent care of Mo, our Mini Schnauzer, for an entire week while our family travelled. This was our first time using Rover and Mo’s first time being boarded. Kelli & Jacob quickly quelled any initial anxieties. They really took time to understand Mo, his habits, preferences, house boundaries, etc. so they could make him feel at home. Communication was excellent before, during, and after. We also received regular updates throughout the week with photos ❤️ We will definitely be in touch for future trips!”
“Luis was amazing with our rescue dog, Zeus. He has major separation anxiety and hates to be left alone. Luis was so accommodating and gave me updates and pictures of our little guy. We will definitely book Luis again!”
“Denise and Oscar were amazing with Chip! They were understanding of my anxiety with using rover and all of chips needs. They sent me photos and updates the whole time he was there. They treated him as if he was one of their own and made me feel he was right at home with them. He was so spoiled and happy being there he was ready to go back! Will always be my go to people now if I need to for Chip!”
“Jeremy and Lauren were excellent! We were pinched for a last minute sitter - and it was a holiday weekend - so we were so thankful to find Jeremy and Lauren to watch our pup at the last minute! They were great to work with and our dog had such a fun time - they have a great backyard for the dogs to play. They sent lots of photos and videos which was so great - definitely recommend and we will be back!”
“Hanna is the best. Gives us photos and videos and texts throughout the day to check in on our dog. Wouldn’t and couldn’t recommend anyone else. Thank you Hanna!”
“This was the perfect boarding experience from beginning to end. The level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail was exceptional. It was clear right away that my pet was in safe, capable, and genuinely caring hands. Everything was handled exactly the way I hoped it would be. Communication was excellent, updates were reassuring, and every detail was managed with care. The environment felt safe, clean, organized, and welcoming. Most importantly, my pet was comfortable, well cared for, and treated with real kindness and patience. What stood out most was the boarder’s attitude. They were dependable, thoughtful, attentive, and clearly take pride in what they do. It is rare to find someone who combines professionalism with such a warm and personal touch. If you are looking for the ideal boarding service, this is it. Trustworthy, responsive, caring, and truly top-tier in every way. I would absolutely use this service again and highly recommend it to anyone who wants real peace of mind when leaving their pet in someone else’s care”
“Matt & his wife were excellent sitters for my (very) big baby for a week! Matt sent updates and photos of our dogs being adorable together and enjoying themselves. A sign of a good time 'away at camp' is when your dog comes home exhausted, and mine certainly did! Would definitely use Matt and his wife to care for my dog when I'm out of town again.”
“I cannot recommend Ashley and her girls highly enough- best dog sitters ever!! Arriving for drop off we were greeted with a custom welcome sign which was the sweetest thing ever. They took the such good care of our noodle we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home with us! Ashley and her girls made sure he felt right at home and I have no doubt he was sooo loved on. . They made sure he got ample play time and walks. They provided us with regular updates and photos. It was such a relief to know our pup was with a family that loved and cared for him like Ashley and her girls do! He will definitely be back!!”
“Carol is so amazing with our dogs, is so friendly, reliable, and experienced. Her property is beautiful and our pets always come back happy, tuckered out, and super well taken care of! Thank you Carol!”
“Thank you, Gail, for your loving and attentive care! You helped ease my dog’s anxiety, especially during the July 4th fireworks. The updates and photos gave me great peace of mind during my trip.”
