“Violette has such a kind spirit! From the time I dropped Phoebe off and picked her up - I knew Phoebe was in good hands. I received a lot of videos, pictures and updates which was very much appreciated. I highly recommend Violette for your fur baby’s needs. Her professionalism and communication is top tier. I plan to book again if scheduling aligns :)”
“My little chihuahua had an amazing time boarding at David’s house! Communication was easy and seamless, and sent me lots of great photo updates throughout her stay. Would board her with David again anytime!”
“Puff had a wonderful stay with Halle and Thomas! They took great care of him and made him feel right at home. I am so happy that Puff made a new friend Molly😄, and it was so nice to see him enjoying himself and having a companion to play with. I was happy knowing he was in such a caring environment while I was away. Thank you, Halle and Thomas, for taking such great care of Puff. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Zeno had a wonderful stay! He got along great with her kids as well as her two dogs, all of which played with him. He came home happy and relaxed. We received great communication with lots of pictures about his stay.”
“Karla was an excellent host for my dog Goose! She was very responsive and provided pictures and videos each day she watched him. She was also very flexible when I unexpectedly had to ask for another day of hosting. Overall very satisfied!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our baby with a complete stranger. We were nervous and hesitant. David gladly met us as a meet and greet to introduce our dog with his dog. As soon as we met him we knew we had found the perfect sitter for our VERY energetic vizsla. David is friendly and professional. He sent us picture updates throughout the week and even let our dog up on his bed and couch. He treats dogs as of they were their very own. We definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter. We already booked him for next month! ”
“Amber was absolutely fantastic! My rabbit Jeff had the time of his life with Amber and seems rather disappointed now to be back home with us. Thanks for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Roxy had really fun with Amy and her family. Amy was very nice with my dog, she took care of her like if she is hers. She sent me pictures every day. I strongly recommend her.”
“Leaving our Ollie with Kerri for the 7 days we were out of town was the BEST decision we could have possibly made. She is super easy to communicate with. She has studied animal behaviors so I knew that no matter how many dogs she had (it was the 4th of July week-busy!) she would make the right decisions with how to handle our girl. She would send pictures and videos so we could see our girl. Kerri is very professional yet extremely easy to talk to and oh so friendly. Just use her-she’s the best. We didn’t know if Ollie would want to come back home to us bc she had so much fun at Kerri’s! Ha!”
“Teri was so patient and welcoming with Nova! You can tell that Teri really does care about your pet. Nova returned at ease after her stay with Teri. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Julie and Greg provided amazing care for our young high energy hound during his first-ever experience with a sitter. They sent photos and updates every day. Not only did they give him plenty of exercise, play, and affection, they worked with him on some problem behaviors/doggie-manner-deficits during his stay with them. I could not recommend more highly.”
“Our dog, Katya, was well taken care of during her stay with Evan at his farm. She enjoyed running around the farm and playing with the other dogs. She was very happy and relaxed on her return home. Would recommend Evan!”
“Ravon took fantastic care of our senior pup. She gave her so much love and attention!! She made sure to fully understand her dietary and exercise needs, which we really appreciate. Ravon definitely provided a safe, home-away-from-home for our girl. She sent us lots of pictures and updates and was very very responsive. We would absolutely book with Ravon again!”
“Denetra is a wonderful pet sitter. She cares about both the physical and mental health of my dog. During their time together, she works on his training and he is always in good spirits at drop off and pick up”
“Katrin is so good with my anxious Wes. She’s super communicative with me, always sending pics & vids. She even added in an extra day of care when my flight got delayed.”
“Stacey was wonderful with our dog! She watched her for 5 nights and did a fantastic job. Stacey kept us updated at least once a day and sent lots of pictures of them enjoying different activities together. It was so reassuring to see how happy and well cared for our dog was while we were away. We really appreciated the communication and care she provided, and we would definitely use Stacey again!”

“Excellent. Desiree is very dependable. She's also great with communication and pics and updates:) She also was really helpful recently when a large loose dog got into our yard - one of my male friends was scared of this dog but Desiree skillfully got the dog back outside our fence with no issues.”
“Alex was wonderful!! He treated my 2 cats t like they were his own. He not only made sure their needs were taken care of but he played with them and interacted with them and loved on them. Thank you so so much Alex for treating my babies so well!!”
About: 🐾 Welcome to Our Home for Happy Dogs! 🐾 We’re a family that absolutely adores pets — they’re our babies, and we’ll treat yours the same way! Our own furry family includes a longhair Chihuahua we rescued as a pup, a Chow-Chow mix rescued from the woods, and two gentle Great Pyrenees who serve as our lovable outdoor guardians. Growing up with dogs, I can’t imagine life without them, and I’ve had the joy of dog-sitting for multiple families over the years. Your pups will be supervised at all times and safe when we step out for errands. Most dogs love the socialization here — it’s a blast to watch them play and make friends! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home full-time to care for your dogs with plenty of love, attention, and snuggles. I can’t wait to welcome your furry family members into our home! Our property sits on 15 acres and is home to chickens, guinea fowl, and turkeys. The backyard is fully fenced, providing a safe, fun space for your pups to run, explore, and play. We have lots of dog toys available, so there’s no need to bring extras — we’ll keep your toys safe and avoid any mix-ups. 🕕 Hours: 6am–9pm (Flexible if you need early drop-offs or late pick-ups — just ask!) 🎁 Referral Bonus: Refer a friend who books a stay, and you’ll receive 1 free night for one of your dogs! We’d love to meet your pups and give them a safe, happy, and loving home-away-from-home. Feel free to reach out with any questions — thanks so much for checking out our profile! I'm home full time so we will mostly be here with your fur baby. If we do leave for a playground or errand it's for a short time. I have two dogs of my own for socialization and a crate or separate room if needed if there's a dog that needs a break.
About: I rescued my 1st cat when I was about 11 years old. I have always had purr babies since that time - including rescuing a kitten in college. I would give your cats ultimate TLC and of course follow any guidelines you would like.
“This was the 2nd time having Kimberly taking care of my 3 kitties, once again her services are awesome. The love, care, and kindness to my kitties while I was away was the best”
“Nicole is great with my baby and sent pictures everyday. She was available and happy to take care of my cat and I plan to use her services again come end of the month! Recommend her for sure!”
About: Every cat has their own language, and I believe in listening to it with patience and deep respect. When I visit your home, I understand that I am a guest in their sacred space. Your home will never feel disturbed by an uninvited visitor; instead, it will be filled with an atmosphere of absolute trust and love.I never force attention or rush a shy soul; instead, I let them set the pace, offering a gentle hand and quiet presence until they feel safe. I love capturing their true essence through soulful photographs and deeply emotional little videos, reflecting their unique character just for you.I tend to their world with meticulous care—keeping their litter boxes pristine, their water fresh, and always keeping a vigilant eye on open doors to ensure your indoor explorer stays completely safe. While you are away, these daily snapshots and stories will keep you connected to their mood, appetite, and quiet moments, giving you complete peace of mind knowing their routine is unbroken and their heart is fully cared for.
About: I’ve had cats for many years, mostly indoor but some outdoor! So I understand the difference in the personalities of the cats and understand they need more patience. I've taken care and had senior cats and newborn kittens. I've been through all the stages and care.
“Karra is great. She was flexible with us when I messed up the timing in the app. She communicated all the time with us letting us know how our dogs were doing and she was super attentive. Our dogs loved her. We definitely will use her services again.”
About: Experience pet lover with 10+ years caring for dogs, from training my own cat and families/friends puppies to playing fetch, going for walkies and all the playtime they deserve to cuddles and pets to also caring for pups, chickens and fish with patience.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years and absolutely love getting to know your pets and you! I’ve cared for dogs, birds, rabbits and cats of all ages from energetic puppies to senior pets needing a little extra patience and care. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering oral medications, and supporting pets with anxiety or special routines. I always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing. My goal is for you to feel at ease and your pet to feel happy and at home. I currently am in graduate school at Duke, so my schedule is flexible! That means I have plenty of time each day to play, walk, and care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, and I make sure every pet gets lots of attention and care throughout the day. I live on 13 acres of beautiful land with backyard access to trails, which gives plenty of space for walks and outdoor playtime. While the area isn’t fenced, I always keep pets safe and supervised during any time outside. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so your furry friends will have my full attention and plenty of company while they’re here. I also know many pets feel more comfortable staying in their own familiar environment, so I’m always happy to care for them in your home. I primarily offer in-home sitting and make sure to maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.
“Alani and Erica were very kind, thorough and communicative. They took great care of our cats, sent lots of photos and updates, and even got our grumpy guy to warm up to them quickly! I definitely would recommend them and will book again.”
About: I have had dogs from 30lbs to 150 lbs and I have loved them all! In my free time I volunteer hiking with dogs at a local animal shelter. And spend the rest of the time spoiling my two fur babies at home. I work remote and have a flexible schedule that can accommodate a wide range of needs during the weekdays as well as on the weekends. My two fur babies are trained to listen off leash, but love to go for walks on leash. One is a couch potatoes that can be trusted and one a wild puppy that is crate trained. So I am used to a wide range of care needs.
About: I have had dogs,cats, hamsters and rabbits my whole life. I care for them like family. I’m the go to pet sitter for family and friends. I work from home as a nurse. So it is very easy for me to fit your furry friend into the schedule. Hope to hear from you soon! I will abide by your rules for your pet and care for them as you would. I will be considerate of your space and the comfort of your pet.
About: I fell in love with cats when traveling to Istanbul (Kedi is a great documentary from there). And since then I’ve both lived with cats and cared for cats of neighbors/friends while they were away. I know standard cat maintenance (feeding and cleaning), and am happy to play with cats, or give them space, as these things always vary on a cat-by-cat basis.
About: I’ve had/been around many different types of dogs my entire life. My family would always want me to come over and train/watch theirs animals for them like I was the go to person for anybody who got a new pet. I also use to volunteer at a boarding company to help feed/walk the dogs. I currently do doordash so I can pretty much fit any request in to my schedule. The most amount of time I would be away would probably be around 5-6 hours. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I know how important routines are, so I make sure pets are fed on time, get plenty of attention, and feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I’m patient, responsible, and good at picking up on what each pet needs, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles. I also like to keep owners updated so they can relax knowing their pet is happy and well taken care of.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Dogs seem to take to me well. I’ve worked as a junior groomer for a few months and trained my own dog. Not professionally, but he listens and understands. I’ve always loved dogs and been an animal person! I have an almost 4 month old baby so I have been a SAHM. I love to work and would like to help my family more. This way I can be at home loving on my son and also your fur babies! We just moved into our forever home due to my husband being retired Navy. We got married in Hawaii where he was stationed and I grew up. Our neighborhood was military and I would watch peoples dogs, board, check ins, walks. I worked at a doggie daycare and became close with a client who would bring her dog over to me to watch instead. Also, became very close with some people in the neighborhood whom I’ve take care of their dogs and now can say are friends like family!
“David was great with our 12 week puppy! Super awesome communication and very understanding of our anxiety as new puppy parents. Percy came home tired and happy. He cannot wait to go back!”
“Lucy enjoyed her stay with Sonia. She loved being in the yard and hanging out with everyone. We dropped her off and she didn’t look back. She started exploring the yard.”
“Teri is awesome! My doggo is a little quirky with his behaviors and Teri was great with learning and navigating those. My dog is slow to warm up to people and I think he sniffed out Teri's awesomeness as he warmed up to her quickly and treats her like shes in the pack. She's a great communicator and sent lots of pupdates. Thankyou Teri!”
“Randy is an outstanding dog sitter! He’s friendly, professional, and incredibly flexible with scheduling, making him a reliable choice for any pet owner. Our dogs loved him, and we highly recommend his services for a stress-free experience!”
“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.”
About: With 35 years of experience caring for pets, I treat every dog like one of my own. Your pets will receive plenty of attention, playtime, treats, exercise, and cuddle time. I have a large fenced-in yard where they can safely run and play, and my goal is for every pet to feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I’m home most of the day and have plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for boarding throughout the week and weekends, and I enjoy having pets around my home. Your pet will be cared for in my home with plenty of love, attention, and supervision. I have one friendly dog at home and a large fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and right at home during their stay. 🐾❤️
“Karla and her family are amazing, and care so much for our little boy. Within a few hours of our first day care stay, I knew Karla’s place would be a great spot for Koda’s weekly daycare. He has so much fun with Karla’s dog Dexter - he’s always as happy as can be when I pick it up. I highly recommend Karla for anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter for their pup!”
“Boba had a great time with Bruna and her dog! She was so communicative, and extremely prompt! We were so grateful for the picture and text updates throughout the dog sitting, and we highly recommend Bruna to anyone who is looking for a personalized care!”
“Lateria was such a lifesaver and an angel. Helped me with my 8 week puppy at a time of critical need. She was sweet, kind, answered all my questions. Grateful to have run into her. Recommend her ?. The world needs more people like her!”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer with years of veterinary medicine experience and a bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior. I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and behavioral needs. Caring for animals is already a major part of my everyday life, so adding another dog to my routine fits naturally into my schedule. I live on a farm and care for multiple animals daily, including dogs, horses, poultry, and other farm animals. My days are already structured around feeding, watering, exercise, cleaning, training, enrichment, medication when needed, and monitoring the health and behavior of the animals in my care. As a professional dog trainer, I also understand that dogs need more than food and potty breaks. Dogs staying with me receive plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, enrichment, rest, and individual attention based on their age, personality, energy level, and normal routine. I am accustomed to planning my schedule around animals and making sure their needs are consistently met throughout the day. Safety is one of my highest priorities when caring for someone else’s dog. I am a professional dog trainer with years of veterinary medicine experience and a bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior. This background allows me to recognize changes in behavior, body language, stress levels, and physical condition that might otherwise be overlooked. Dogs in my care are supervised and managed according to their individual temperament, training, and needs. I do not assume that every dog should interact with every other animal simply because they are staying in the same home. Dogs can be safely separated, crated, rotated, or given individual play and exercise time when appropriate. Because I live on a farm, I take additional precautions when dogs are outside. Every boarding dog wears a GPS tracking collar whenever they are outside of their secure kennel area, providing an additional layer of safety and security. Dogs are never given unnecessary freedom simply because they are staying in a rural environment. My goal is to provide a structured, safe, and enjoyable environment where owners can feel confident that their dog is receiving knowledgeable, individualized care while they are away.
“Taco loves to go to Laura’s house, every time we start to round the corner to her house, he starts to get excited and can’t wait to get there and play with Marley! He always comes home tuckered out and happy!”
“Chelsea and David were amazing! When I picked up my pup, she was happy and tuckered out! I would definitely bring my girl back to them when I come back into town. Can't recommend enough!”
About: **PLEASE RESPOND IN TIMELY MANNER AFTER RECEIVE REPLY TO REQUEST. GREATLY APPRECIATE IT. 🙏🏾** I've taken care of family and friends' dogs since 2010, starting in Charlotte, NC. Longest I've kept one dog is for 2 weeks. I love taking care of dogs as if they were my own. Currently live in Durham, NC in my childhood home. I work from home, so I'm the perfect sitter that can entertain your dog while you're at work, away on vacay/trip, or just need some me time. I am a patient person and do have experience training a couple of dogs from not fearing their crate, knowing boundaries within house, and cease whining. I work from home Monday-Friday from 8-4:30 pm. I occasionally have appts and other events on the weekends, including attending church worship service. I'm at home the majority of the time. I have a pretty open concept in my house, but I close off doors to bedrooms and bathroom. I sometimes close off my hallway to keep in a secluded place in case of visitors or go to sleep at night. I take dogs out on leash, I currently do not have a fenced yard. I spend quality time with them and engage often and show plenty of love.
“Anitra was so supportive in taking my pup for an early drop off, it was great to see Sydney at the dog park right next to her home while I was studying for a big exam. Highly recommend her!”

“Marissa did a great job with my crazy golden retriever, Huck! She was very prompt and did a great job with him despite the fact that he can be a bit of a puller. She was very accommodating and willing to take him on a jog because he has so much energy!”
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.

I do not mind doing light housework, and I am comfortable with sitting for more than one dog.
About: I’ve pet sat my friends animals, and they’ve had so many! Senior dogs that have accidents and have behavioral issues. Exotic pets, of many kids. Every morning, I fill the cat and water bowl in my room, weekly I clean the bowls. For my dogs, whenever my parents don’t feed them cause they are out, I feed them and fill their water. I brush their coats, and try to give them baths every few weeks or so! However the pet parents would like, but I care for what is best for their health. I understand each pet is different and needs different things. I can bathe the animals depending on behavior, my right leg doesn't haven't as much feeling since surgery and cant handle a lot of big pressure.

I have a fenced yard and gates throughout my home to separate areas where the dogs should not be or could get hurt. I do regular potty breaks every hour but if this needs to be adjusted due to your pets needs I can do that! I do morning and night feedings for my dog and cats but I can manage feeding your pet on their schedule as well :)

I offer dog sitting in my safe and welcoming home in Oxford, NC, where your pup will get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and exercise. Whether your dog loves to run around, play fetch, or just relax and cuddle, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for like family. I also send lots of pictures and updates so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Creating a fun, clean, and safe environment for every pet is my top priority, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m able to accommodate pets close to my area easily and make their care a priority while keeping a consistent, calm, and loving environment. Providing a safe environment for pets is very important to me. I have a large yard where dogs can run, play, and get plenty of exercise while always being supervised and monitored closely. Inside my home, I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and routines to make sure they stay happy, safe, and well cared for at all times.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who would love to care for your pup while you’re away. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own: an 18-month-old purebred German Shepherd and a 3-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix. They’ve given me plenty of hands-on experience with energetic, strong, playful, and sometimes stubborn dogs! I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, some extra playtime, medication, meals, bathroom breaks, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’ll do my best to keep them comfortable and stick to their normal schedule. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m able to spend substantial time with your dog throughout the day and can accommodate overnight stays when needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches of time, and I’m happy to provide the attention and companionship they’re used to. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I’ll treat both with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your dog and give them a safe, happy, and comfortable experience while you’re away! I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take dogs for walks, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and keep up with their regular feeding and bathroom schedules. I’m also available for longer stays and overnight care when needed. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pup can have plenty of companionship rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to work around each dog’s individual routine and needs. I currently do not offer boarding in my home because I have two dogs of my own. However, I’m happy to provide pet sitting in your home, where your dog can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and routine. When caring for a pet, safety and trust are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions before their stay. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have had dogs from 30lbs to 150 lbs and I have loved them all! In my free time I volunteer hiking with dogs at a local animal shelter. And spend the rest of the time spoiling my two fur babies at home. I work remote and have a flexible schedule that can accommodate a wide range of needs during the weekdays as well as on the weekends. My two fur babies are trained to listen off leash, but love to go for walks on leash. One is a couch potatoes that can be trusted and one a wild puppy that is crate trained. So I am used to a wide range of care needs.
About: I have grown up taking care of dogs. I have a dog of my own I trained. Growing up, my sister had a service dog that we had professionally trained. So I know the impact dogs and cats can have on somebody's life! I've always been the "animal guy" in my friend groups so I have spent years taking care of everyone's fur babies! I would love to take care of your sweet pups! I have full availability for watching dogs! I love animals and have grown up training and watching dogs. My sister has search-and-rescue service dogs so I have a deep understanding of what dogs are capable of and how to get them there. I understand dog body language and will do whatever I need to make your dog feel safe and cared for. I can always come by your place and meet with your dog while you are there to make the dog feel more comfortable and safe when I drop in for visits!
About: Hi pup parents! My name is Natalie. I am new to Rover; however, not to animal care. I have been a veterinary assistant for 5 years and counting, caring for sweet pets every day. Animals are definitely one of my passions, and I have my own rescue Labrador mix who is spoiled every day! I treat every pet as if it were my own and take building client's trust very seriously. If you need a dog walker during the day, please feel free to reach out! I am available during daylight hours throughout the week, including weekends. Right now, I am not offering drop-ins lasting more than one hour visits at a time. I know it is important to feel comfortable with who you entrust to care for your furry family member in your absence. Making you feel confident is my highest priority. You can expect great communication, picture updates of your pup, and reliability.
About: Most of my experience is with dogs of friends or co-workers. I generally keep their dogs at their place where they are most comfortable and take them out frequently for walks/runs or whatever they'd like to do. So long as the dog is house trained and not on the "forbidden breed list" at the apartments I stay, they are welcome to my home too. I've sat a Pointer/Dalmation mix, Maltese mix, Shepherd mix, Chow Chow, Boxer, Cane Corso, and 2 Weimaraners in the past. My fulltime job is a nurse, and I only work 36 hours a week. I don't really consider pet sitting or walking a job because I love dogs so much. Just looking to make some extra income and maybe start my own business someday. I have a laid back personality and dogs tend to take to me immediately or at least stay true to their breeds. Chow Chow was my brother-in-law's dog who barked at me a good 3-4 times before she knew I wasn't a total stranger. Bothered me none.

“Violette has such a kind spirit! From the time I dropped Phoebe off and picked her up - I knew Phoebe was in good hands. I received a lot of videos, pictures and updates which was very much appreciated. I highly recommend Violette for your fur baby’s needs. Her professionalism and communication is top tier. I plan to book again if scheduling aligns :)”
“My little chihuahua had an amazing time boarding at David’s house! Communication was easy and seamless, and sent me lots of great photo updates throughout her stay. Would board her with David again anytime!”
“Puff had a wonderful stay with Halle and Thomas! They took great care of him and made him feel right at home. I am so happy that Puff made a new friend Molly😄, and it was so nice to see him enjoying himself and having a companion to play with. I was happy knowing he was in such a caring environment while I was away. Thank you, Halle and Thomas, for taking such great care of Puff. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Zeno had a wonderful stay! He got along great with her kids as well as her two dogs, all of which played with him. He came home happy and relaxed. We received great communication with lots of pictures about his stay.”
“Sonia and Jeff are the best. They have hosted Cookie twice, and she always returns home healthy and happy. Even with a short notice request they have been in the best disposition to take her. We are so grateful with them.”
“Karla was an excellent host for my dog Goose! She was very responsive and provided pictures and videos each day she watched him. She was also very flexible when I unexpectedly had to ask for another day of hosting. Overall very satisfied!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our baby with a complete stranger. We were nervous and hesitant. David gladly met us as a meet and greet to introduce our dog with his dog. As soon as we met him we knew we had found the perfect sitter for our VERY energetic vizsla. David is friendly and professional. He sent us picture updates throughout the week and even let our dog up on his bed and couch. He treats dogs as of they were their very own. We definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter. We already booked him for next month! ”
“We have used Sharon a couple of different times and she always does a phenomenal job. She caters to Clancy’s whims making him a little reluctant to want to come home. She provides plenty of pictures to satisfy our concerns. We appreciate Sharon and will continue to use her services.”
“Amber was absolutely fantastic! My rabbit Jeff had the time of his life with Amber and seems rather disappointed now to be back home with us. Thanks for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Roxy had really fun with Amy and her family. Amy was very nice with my dog, she took care of her like if she is hers. She sent me pictures every day. I strongly recommend her.”
“Leaving our Ollie with Kerri for the 7 days we were out of town was the BEST decision we could have possibly made. She is super easy to communicate with. She has studied animal behaviors so I knew that no matter how many dogs she had (it was the 4th of July week-busy!) she would make the right decisions with how to handle our girl. She would send pictures and videos so we could see our girl. Kerri is very professional yet extremely easy to talk to and oh so friendly. Just use her-she’s the best. We didn’t know if Ollie would want to come back home to us bc she had so much fun at Kerri’s! Ha!”
“Teri was so patient and welcoming with Nova! You can tell that Teri really does care about your pet. Nova returned at ease after her stay with Teri. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Julie and Greg provided amazing care for our young high energy hound during his first-ever experience with a sitter. They sent photos and updates every day. Not only did they give him plenty of exercise, play, and affection, they worked with him on some problem behaviors/doggie-manner-deficits during his stay with them. I could not recommend more highly.”
“Our dog, Katya, was well taken care of during her stay with Evan at his farm. She enjoyed running around the farm and playing with the other dogs. She was very happy and relaxed on her return home. Would recommend Evan!”
“Denetra is a wonderful pet sitter. She cares about both the physical and mental health of my dog. During their time together, she works on his training and he is always in good spirits at drop off and pick up”
“Katrin is so good with my anxious Wes. She’s super communicative with me, always sending pics & vids. She even added in an extra day of care when my flight got delayed.”
