“Heather and her family were great! 😊 They always kept me updated about my dog and were very accommodating and professional. We left our dog for 18 days, and I was never worried even once because I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care. You can really tell how much they genuinely cared for and loved our dog while we were away. Our dog was happy, healthy, and very well taken care of. Will definitely come back!”

“Greta provided great care for our 11 month old puppy. She has a wonderful property for active dogs and takes them on several walks a day. She was very communicative throughout our pets stay and provided pictures and updates several times a day. We would not hesitate to use her services again. Thank you for the care.”

“Michelle was great with our Enzo. She sent lots of updates with pictures and videos and I know he was well loved. The day we picked him up he slept all afternoon and was such a happy dog. Will absolutely use Michelle again.”

“Brittany took great care of our dog Mochi! She provided lots of updates and pictures daily while we were gone which really put us at ease knowing our pup was in good hands with her family. She had a lot of playtime outside with their dog Stella and we loved to see the photos! We are so happy to have found Brittany and her family, and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Mochi again :)”

“Cara and her family had me completely at ease from our meet & greet through my dog’s stay. Cara shared photos every day and included notes - allowed me to remain confident in Fiona’s care. Cara is very responsive and excellent with communicating.”

About: I’ve been providing services through Rover since 2024 and worked privately prior to that. I’ve always lived in a household with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I’ve raised many from puppies through their adult and senior years. I understand that every dog has unique needs at each stage of life and am happy to tailor care specifically for your canine companion. Boarding Details: I have 10 acres of private land with a pond, giving dogs plenty of space to explore and enjoy. Boarding pups are welcomed as part of my pack and family during their stay—I want them to feel just as comfortable as they do at home. We also have a dedicated bedroom, with a crate available if needed, so everyone can have their own space. I can’t wait to connect with you! 🐾 I adventure daily on local trails with my own pups and love planning bigger outings on the weekends. I enjoy including daycare and boarding dogs in our activities when it fits their personality and comfort level, so every pup gets the right mix of exercise and fun. During daycare or boarding stays, dogs receive morning potty breaks and exercise, enrichment or rest during the day, and evening adventures or structured playtime. I keep feeding schedules consistent and make sure everyone has time to settle. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to accommodate special diets, crate preferences, or senior/puppy needs so your dog feels safe and comfortable throughout their stay. I’m available most evenings after 4 PM, with extra flexibility during February and April school vacations. From the end of June through the end of August, when I’m out of school, I’m much more available for weekly let-outs and boarding opportunities if needed. My goal is to keep your pet in their routine as much as possible, so they can be comfortable and things go smoothly! If boarding at our place- dogs have the accessibility to a fenced in yard, several acres of off leash trails explore, a private pond, & 2 friendly pups during their stay!
“Steve and Keely took amazing care of my 11-month old black lab Rain. Their lab Sabra and Rain became fast friends and played together constantly during her 2-day stay. Rain had plenty of room inside and had daily walks and outside time as well. Steve sent me photos and updates throughout her stay. I have already rebooked with Steve for a weeklong trip I am taking next week. I can’t recommend him enough.”

“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”

“Christina took such wonderful care of Milo and Ellie while we were away. She kept us at ease with regular updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust Christina again and highly recommend her”

“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our dog, Taco, with her, and it was for 5 days. We were of course nervous leaving him with someone new for so long, but as soon as we walked through her door, we were reassured he was going to be in great care! She kept us updated with photos throughout, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family during that time. Taco is excited to visit again!”

“Great people and am amazing, spacious, SAFE place for my dog. Excellent communication. I was happy to share my dog with these exemplary, canine-loving people. Amazing experience.”

“Goldie had a great stay at Ashley's home! Ashley was very communicative and sent us lots of photos of Goldie. I didn't feel like I needed to worry about Goldie while she was there. I highly recommend Ashley and would definitely use her again!!”

“Benjamin and Laura did a fantastic job watching our 4-year-old Bernedoodle for 10 days. They were responsible, kind, quick to respond, and flexible around ideal drop off and pick up times. They sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind that our dog was enjoying her time (playing, walking, resting). She also got along very well with their two dogs. I definitely would trust Benjamin and Laura to watch our dog for a future trip.”

“Our dog, Mable, had the best time at Emily’s! My husband and I had our pup stay at Emily’s for a long weekend while we were out of town, and we felt so at ease. Emily sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day. Mable was so happy and came back worn out from all the playtime and love! We will certainly be using Emily again in the future! Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up around dogs my whole life as I have lived on a school campus! Dogs are something that I have always wanted, but never got the chance to have. The biggest thing that sets me apart is that I have plenty of love left to give to your pet! As a college student I have Friday-Sundays off therefor I have a lot of free time to play around with dogs! I also live with 7 other girls who would be more than happy to have a lil pup in town! I am willing to stay overnight at owners house if that is needed! If pets are to come to my apartment, they would have plenty of outdoor space to play around safely!
“Grace was amazing! She was able to accommodate our dog's personality quirks and we were able to rest easy while Basil stayed with her. She was kind and attentive and gave updates on how our pup was doing. Thanks to Grace we were able to fully relax and enjoy the family wedding we were in town for! I only wish we lived closer so she could be our regular pet sitter!”


“Lucia was great and was very flexible when watching Chloe. We were away for two weeks and she allowed my sister, who would be watching her the other days, to drop off and pick-up and was accommodating to her tough work schedule. We appreciated that she had other dogs and a fenced in yard. The once a day updates were perfect both for keeping our minds at ease and showing us how great of a time Chloe was having. 100% would recommend!”

Boarding Details: I have 10 acres of private land with a pond, giving dogs plenty of space to explore and enjoy. Boarding pups are welcomed as part of my pack and family during their stay—I want them to feel just as comfortable as they do at home. We also have a dedicated bedroom, with a crate available if needed, so everyone can have their own space. I can’t wait to connect with you! 🐾 I adventure daily on local trails with my own pups and love planning bigger outings on the weekends. I enjoy including daycare and boarding dogs in our activities when it fits their personality and comfort level, so every pup gets the right mix of exercise and fun. During daycare or boarding stays, dogs receive morning potty breaks and exercise, enrichment or rest during the day, and evening adventures or structured playtime. I keep feeding schedules consistent and make sure everyone has time to settle. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to accommodate special diets, crate preferences, or senior/puppy needs so your dog feels safe and comfortable throughout their stay. I’m available most evenings after 4 PM, with extra flexibility during February and April school vacations. From the end of June through the end of August, when I’m out of school, I’m much more available for weekly let-outs and boarding opportunities if needed. My goal is to keep your pet in their routine as much as possible, so they can be comfortable and things go smoothly! If boarding at our place- dogs have the accessibility to a fenced in yard, several acres of off leash trails explore, a private pond, & 2 friendly pups during their stay!
“Steve and Keely took amazing care of my 11-month old black lab Rain. Their lab Sabra and Rain became fast friends and played together constantly during her 2-day stay. Rain had plenty of room inside and had daily walks and outside time as well. Steve sent me photos and updates throughout her stay. I have already rebooked with Steve for a weeklong trip I am taking next week. I can’t recommend him enough.”

“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”

“Christina took such wonderful care of Milo and Ellie while we were away. She kept us at ease with regular updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust Christina again and highly recommend her”

“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our dog, Taco, with her, and it was for 5 days. We were of course nervous leaving him with someone new for so long, but as soon as we walked through her door, we were reassured he was going to be in great care! She kept us updated with photos throughout, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family during that time. Taco is excited to visit again!”

“Great people and am amazing, spacious, SAFE place for my dog. Excellent communication. I was happy to share my dog with these exemplary, canine-loving people. Amazing experience.”

“Goldie had a great stay at Ashley's home! Ashley was very communicative and sent us lots of photos of Goldie. I didn't feel like I needed to worry about Goldie while she was there. I highly recommend Ashley and would definitely use her again!!”

“Benjamin and Laura did a fantastic job watching our 4-year-old Bernedoodle for 10 days. They were responsible, kind, quick to respond, and flexible around ideal drop off and pick up times. They sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind that our dog was enjoying her time (playing, walking, resting). She also got along very well with their two dogs. I definitely would trust Benjamin and Laura to watch our dog for a future trip.”

“Our dog, Mable, had the best time at Emily’s! My husband and I had our pup stay at Emily’s for a long weekend while we were out of town, and we felt so at ease. Emily sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day. Mable was so happy and came back worn out from all the playtime and love! We will certainly be using Emily again in the future! Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up around dogs my whole life as I have lived on a school campus! Dogs are something that I have always wanted, but never got the chance to have. The biggest thing that sets me apart is that I have plenty of love left to give to your pet! As a college student I have Friday-Sundays off therefor I have a lot of free time to play around with dogs! I also live with 7 other girls who would be more than happy to have a lil pup in town! I am willing to stay overnight at owners house if that is needed! If pets are to come to my apartment, they would have plenty of outdoor space to play around safely!
“Grace was amazing! She was able to accommodate our dog's personality quirks and we were able to rest easy while Basil stayed with her. She was kind and attentive and gave updates on how our pup was doing. Thanks to Grace we were able to fully relax and enjoy the family wedding we were in town for! I only wish we lived closer so she could be our regular pet sitter!”


“Lucia was great and was very flexible when watching Chloe. We were away for two weeks and she allowed my sister, who would be watching her the other days, to drop off and pick-up and was accommodating to her tough work schedule. We appreciated that she had other dogs and a fenced in yard. The once a day updates were perfect both for keeping our minds at ease and showing us how great of a time Chloe was having. 100% would recommend!”
