Personalized care for your dog or cat - Rockwell
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Rockwell
“I had no worries with Shanna, every interaction showed her care for my pet was her first concern. Great communication and pictures while I was away, I truly could not have asked for more.”
“This was my puppies first time going anywhere on his own. I can tell that Rachel took good care of him because he came home totally relaxed and happy. I most definitely bring him back to her for future stay ?”
“Brittany took wonderful care of our dog, Lola. She sent pictures and videos everyday and had plenty of love and care. Lola has become best friends with her poodle too! She had a blast running around in the yard and meeting new friends, like goats and horses. I would definitely recommend Brittany, your fur babies will be in good hands!”
“Debora was so great! She kept in contact with daily pictures of my fur baby's activities and was flexible if I had to change my pickup time. I highly recommend her for watching your special four- legged critters. 😁”
“Kim was wonderful with our dog Harry. This was Harry’s first time being boarded in a long time and Kim was extremely patient with him and took the time to ensure that he was always comfortable. I would book her again in an instant.”
“My poodle is a nervous little dude. Coming home from a kennel he seems almost traumatized, whereas coming home from Leslie’s he settles back to “normal” very quickly. Second only to his own home.”
“Arlene was amazing! Our dog, Tucker, is 10 years old and is very much a people person dog and since she has an older dog as well, I thought the two dogs would get along very well. Arlene and her husband worked together and made Tucker's stay with them a vacation too. I received videos, pictures, and frequent text communication all showing Tucker having a great time! Seeing all the pics and videos made for a wonderful vacation in our end Nevada we weren't worried about if Tucker was OK and being treated well. I highly recommend Arlene and her husband for your pet's stay. Thank you Arlene and John!”
“Ms. Norma was so great with Daisy & I felt completely comfortable leaving her while we were out of state when my initial plans fell through!! She sent pictures & updates daily the entire time we were gone!! I would for sure rebook her if needed again in the future. Daisy had the best time playing & being loved on!! She was worn out when we got home from all her playing!!”
“Katherine kept us up to date on our puppy and sent us daily pictures. She was treated like part of the family and the drop off and pick up was seamless. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Lipika was amazing and took great care of Diego while I was out of town. She sent multiple videos each day and made sure to keep me updated on how he was doing. He had so much fun! Would definitely recommend to anyone.”
“Asher has been with Anamika twice now. Asher knew where we were as soon as we pulled into her driveway. He got out of the car and got the zombies. It was obvious by his tail wags how happy he was to be back! Anamika and her family make sure to take care of Asher just as they would their own doodle. I can go out of town and know for sure he’s being loved the way we would. There’s no one else I’d trust to take care of him while we’re away!”
“Where do I even begin? Brittany was absolutely amazing. From the moment she met Nyla, it was clear there was a natural connection. She was so tender and caring, and always kept us in the loop with updates. I could tell Nyla genuinely enjoyed her time with her. Definitely a 10/10 experience — we’ll absolutely be booking again in the near future!”
“Kathy and her crew took extra special care of our boy Nikko. He will be returning to his favorite spot soon. She has a wonderful outdoor area and furry friends to keep your special ones company.”
“Ruth boarded my dog Jack for five days , she sent pictures every day which helped a lot. Jack fell in love as soon as he met her because he loves all the scratches and rubs. Enzo, Ruth's dog is a big loveable baby and Jack and Enzo got a long well. When I picked Jack up he was his happy healthy self.. No complaints from me and I just re-booked.”
“Our dog had never stayed with someone else, and she is a clinger to us, so we were not sure how well she would do. Emily and Tyon took such incredible care of her- she felt right at home playing ball with the kids, cuddling on the couch, and going for walks. We would absolutely use their services again in the future! I can’t recommend them enough :)”
“Jamie was extremely flexible with dates when watching our pup. We ended up changing our plans midway through our trip, and she accommodated those changes. It made all the difference in our vacation. She provides regular updates with pictures and also gives the pups ample time to play. We will definitely request her again when we are going out of town.”
“Dennise was great with my senior pup. Very patient and accommodating. Pretty Boy was very comfortable with her. We will definitely be back for another stay!”
“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!”

We highly recommend her services and will definitely be booking her again the in the future.”
“Lori is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my cat Mellow while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Mellow is usually shy with new people, but he quickly warmed up to Lori thanks to her calm and loving energy. She kept me updated with sweet photos , videos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat—and a tidy home! Thank you, Lori, for treating Mellow like your own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: I absolutely LOVE cats and have spent my whole life around them! I’m very comfortable with cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I understand that every cat is different, from the cuddly and playful ones to the shy, independent, or nervous ones. I’m experienced with feeding, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and giving each cat the attention and patience they need. I’ll treat your cat like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! 🐱❤️

“Addisyn stopped in to check on my cat while I was away for a few days. She is very responsive, took lots of pictures of my boy and always provided thorough updates. I felt at ease while I was away knowing my cat was well taken care of!”
“We really appreciate Lydia's help. We can tell from the photos she provided of our dogs that they were well taken care of. Having someone look after our dogs on such a long vacation was a relief. Being able to keep them at our house was certainly a stress relief for them and us. They both get a little separation anxiety so not having to leave them at a boarding place was a great plus. Once again, the pictures showed that they enjoyed having Lydia there and the updates she gave us every day were a load off our minds. We would absolutely book Lydia again.”

About: I am a self-professed animal lover and my care for animals started with our family dog, Kip, when I was just 8 years old.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, always feeling a special connection with them. Over the years I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets—including turtles, raccoons, cats, hamsters, mice, dogs, horses, goats, and chickens—each teaching me something new about patience, trust, and compassion. Every animal in my care is treated with the utmost respect, kindness, and attention, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and at home. Pet care is woven into my everyday life, making me available around the clock to meet each animal’s needs. From early morning feedings to late-night check-ins, I ensure that every pet receives consistent attention, comfort, and care. My schedule is built to provide flexibility and reliability, so whether it’s day or night, you can trust that your pets are never left without the care they deserve. We reside on 4 fenced acres that is divided into 3 paddocks. Your furry friend will have plenty of room to roam and stretch their legs. If your pup enjoys to swim we have a pool for them to cool off in! We also have chickens enclosed in their own yard, a horse and 3 goats who are all dog friendly. The horse and goats stay in the lower pasture that is separated from the dogs.

About: Hello! I'm a professional dog trainer in the area looking to fill more of my days with dog activities!

My entire life is devoted to animals and I would not have it any other way.

About: Before bringing a dog into your family it is important to know how to take care of them. You need to provide love and affection and kindness. They are treated like family members. I enjoy playing with them in the backyard or in the house. Love to take them for walks if that is what is preferred. Keeps us both healthy. I love cuddling with them on the couch and petting them. They are such great company and love the loyalty they provide. I love all kinds of dogs they are smart and curious little guys. They must be taken to a vet to keep up with their shots and health. I don't like to feed them from the table and I always read articles on what is or what isn't good for them. I am home and I can be with your pet 24/7. I enjoy sitting and cuddling with the fur babies and sometimes my grandson who is 18 comes to visit he loves animals and just plays with them and will cuddle with them.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Rockwell

“Suzanne steeped in at the last minute when someone canceled due to illness. Her response time was excellent, she relieved my stress, and my dogs love her. She can be counted on! Thanks Suzanne!”
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve loved working with them in all kinds of capacities since I was a child, and for more than 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of doing so professionally. Over the years, I’ve trained and cared for dogs of all personalities and backgrounds, including working dogs, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual. I’m a Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and am certified in Canine CPR and First Aid through the American Red Cross. I recertify annually so I can stay current with the latest first-aid practices, and I’m also comfortable administering oral medications when needed. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care as an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here. Before your pup comes to stay, I’ll have you fill out a little information form about them. It’s not meant to feel like paperwork for paperwork’s sake—it simply helps me get to know your dog before they arrive. Their routines, quirks, favorite things, and anything else that helps me make them feel at home are all helpful to know. I don’t have a breed preference and have experience with everything from easygoing family companions to high-drive working dogs. Whether your pup is happiest curled up on the couch or ready to spend the day exploring, I’m happy to accommodate their personality and your preferences. And yes, your dog is absolutely welcome on our couch! ❤️ Our home is their home while they’re here, and we want them to feel comfortable and included. At the same time, I’m always happy to follow whatever arrangements work best for your family. No matter what their stay looks like, your pup can count on plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and interaction. My goal is for them to head home happy, tired, and already looking forward to their next visit! I wake up and start the day off with morning let out. After each group has been let we come back in for feeding. Morning feedings normally allow for 30-45 minutes before letting out again for a potty break. They are brought back in, crated, and pups are rotated out for play inside throughout the day. I let out every 2-4 hours through the day or more if needed. I do have the option to add on trail walks for those who have social canines who are good with other dogs and people (I will not be introducing them to others but it is a requirement to the trail). In the evening we normally do the last feeding at 7 pm followed by yard play and starting to settle in. Last potty break is at 10 pm. Note: Although I am at home full time I do on occasion leave our home to run errands. Your dog can be left alone for up to 4 hours (max). If this is ever the case your pup will always be crated and secure. For your pup's safety They are never given free rein while unsupervised. I take the safety of your furry companion very seriously. Canines are let out for potty breaks every 2-4 hours (or as needed, if required more frequently). I have a fenced-in yard so your pup will be safe during potty breaks. I do not allow companions from other families to play with each other. This is a safety measure. Your pup can be under a lot of stress when you're gone and I want to make their stay as smooth and relaxing as possible. This doesn't mean I will not be playing with your pup ourselves! I love playing fetch, puzzle games, and even tug with them. I do allow for several outings in the house throughout the day so they can get plenty of one-on-one attention inside as well as extra pets. I have 5 acres that are attached to the national preserve. If your furry companion is social and enjoys walks, I have several trails I am happy to take them on upon request (weather permitting). All outings are on leash only.

“Lori was a pleasure to work with. Mollie fell in love with her and her affectionate care during their walks. I would not hesitate to ask for her assistance in the future when and if needed. I highly recommend Lori for anyone who needs their pet looked after or walked or for any other service she offers. She's a Five Star for your Furbabies!”
“Jackie responded quickly to my request. She helped ease my mind, by getting my dog out for a walk and loving on him. She sent updates, and followed through on all of my requests. 10/10 recommendation!”
About: I’m a very caring and patient person, and I treat pets like they’re part of the family. I’m dependable, attentive, and good at paying attention to their individual needs and routines. I love being active, going on walks, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and giving pets the love, and attention they need. I care for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable. I follow their normal routine, provide food and water, take them for walks, give them attention, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable.
About: The services I offer are dog walks and check ins. I am currently 26 years old and graduated from UNCC in May of 2022. I have always loved animals ever since I was a little girl. I started caring for family and friends animals when I was 12 years old and will often help out friends and family when they need me to. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I will take the time to love and care for your animal like it was my own. I always try to go above and beyond whatever my task is. I hope to one day be able to care and love your animal as if you were there. I work part time during the week but I am free all day during the weekends. I would be able to provide walks and daily care for your pet. I have two cats and one dog who are very loving to all humans and animals . I want your pet to feel comfortable while you are away.
About: Hello! I'm currently a nursing student that has a love for all animals and if I wasn’t going to be a nurse I’d definitely be a Vet!

I have flexible availability if I’m ever not available I prioritize clear communication over anything else. Just let me know what you need and I got you and your precious pet!

I’m big on communication, I will always lay out my current hours as I’m in an accelerated course. I have a fenced in yard, and I live in a neighborhood that is super pet friendly where I can safely take your dog on walks.

I am available in the morning/early morning on Wednesdays and Thursdays. When caring for your pet, I’ll treat both your pet and your space with respect.

“Brittany took wonderful care of our dog, Lola. She sent pictures and videos everyday and had plenty of love and care. Lola has become best friends with her poodle too! She had a blast running around in the yard and meeting new friends, like goats and horses. I would definitely recommend Brittany, your fur babies will be in good hands!”
“Kim was wonderful with our dog Harry. This was Harry’s first time being boarded in a long time and Kim was extremely patient with him and took the time to ensure that he was always comfortable. I would book her again in an instant.”
“My poodle is a nervous little dude. Coming home from a kennel he seems almost traumatized, whereas coming home from Leslie’s he settles back to “normal” very quickly. Second only to his own home.”
“Ms. Norma was so great with Daisy & I felt completely comfortable leaving her while we were out of state when my initial plans fell through!! She sent pictures & updates daily the entire time we were gone!! I would for sure rebook her if needed again in the future. Daisy had the best time playing & being loved on!! She was worn out when we got home from all her playing!!”

It was obvious by his tail wags how happy he was to be back! Anamika and her family make sure to take care of Asher just as they would their own doodle. I can go out of town and know for sure he’s being loved the way we would. There’s no one else I’d trust to take care of him while we’re away!”

“Samantha was great. My dog Max suffers from anxiety and I was very worried about him. He was anxious the first night but Samantha was patient and calmed him (and me 😀) down.

“Our dog had never stayed with someone else, and she is a clinger to us, so we were not sure how well she would do. Emily and Tyon took such incredible care of her- she felt right at home playing ball with the kids, cuddling on the couch, and going for walks. We would absolutely use their services again in the future! I can’t recommend them enough :)”
