Her home was clean and welcoming, with a great fenced-in yard that gave our pup plenty of space to play.

I was right.Will definitely use her again!!”
“Janet and Ken are a very lovely couple, who have taken great care of our 2 yorkies while we were away on vacation. Janet and Ken are very likeable, warm, good natured and were very loving towards our yorkies, Happy and Melody. Both our yorkies fell in love with them and came back to us very content and at peace.

We will always leave them with Janet and Ken in the future :) Thank you dogvacay for helping us find such an amazing family to take care of our babies!Forever grateful. Xoxo, The Chandani Family”
“Steven was great with my 2 large pups! He sent pictures and was very quick with responding. It was my first time leaving them with a stranger so I was nervous but Steven made sure they were well taken care of and comfortable. He walked, played and hung out with them each day. He even went and bought them a little extra of their food when they ran out! I would 100% use him again!”

“I cannot say enough great things about Kara. This was our first time boarding with her and it was the best experience. She was responsive and kind! We met prior to my dog boarding with her and he loved her and her dogs. During his stay, she provided daily updates even with pictures which was a nice touch and she was very responsive if I messaged her. My dog was so happy to be there and seems like he felt at home which was important to me. When I picked him up, he was so tired from all the playing! Thank you so much Kara! Oliver would love to stay with you again.”
About: I have always had dogs in my life, from growing up with family dogs, owning my own, and dog sitting friends and my family's dogs. I have a large backyard, completely fenced, enjoy walking, and spending time outside. I have two teenage children who love dogs! I am a school teacher so able to board on weekends and summer months. A typical day includes at least one walk and access to the backyard freely all day long. I have a fenced in, large yard, and one dog to keep your pup playing and happy while they are here. I have one cat that is indoor/outdoor and tends to keep her distance:)
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”

“Valerie was great. She came and took care of Cookie. We were not sure how Cookie would respond to someone new. Cookie took to her right away, Valerie even came an extra day that we asked her to with short notice. Cookie loved her. I would highly recommend Valerie to anyone who needs help with their dog and cat. She is very loving and attentive to their needs. We were also informed with pictures and any issues that occurred with Cookie. She had an accident outside of her box and Valerie cleaned it up and made sure we were aware of it. She treated Cookie like her own. Cookie loved her.”
“I couldn’t be happier with booking Nadine! this was my first time booking someone on Rover and I was very nervous, but she took amazing care of my finicky cat, who doesn’t normally like people, and my diabetic cat with such attention and care. She was always on time, communicated clearly, and was genuinely kind. My cats loved her!”
“Julia is a superstar. We had to go on a trip for 6 days and our cats had never been left in someone else’s care, so we were a little anxious how everything would go. Julia asked a lot of great questions beforehand and when our spicy cat gave her 2 days of hiding and hissing, she was very sensitive and caring (others would have given up!). By the end, both our boys looked forward to Julia caring for them and I am convinced they miss her. She took care of our boys like they were her own. She also sent us daily updates and photos so we could check in on how things were going.”
“Gianna was a super cat-sitter! She was timely and responsive to texts and really seemed to connect well with our kitten, Bubba. Gianna did everything that we asked of her (food, water, litter box, playing toys, sending a picture during her visit) and even left us some things for Bubba and a sweet note for us when we got home. If I could give her more than five stars I would. I hope to ask her back again the next time we need someone to stop in for him! Gianna was a real find!!!”
“Kandyce was super communicative, on time for each check in, took a lot of great photos of our cat and was prompt and responsive when we needed updates. Truly a pleasure to have over and will keep her at the top of our choices for the future. Thank you again!!!”
“Nicole did a great job checking in and feeding our cats. She provided us with pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nicole for taking care of our cats.”
About: My grandma has had cats all of my life. I am accustomed to their needs. My partner has a cat that I tend to closely. She is a spicy sweetheart that I adore. I do love cats and would be more than willing to learn how to best help your furry pal.
“Logan has been amazing ! She is very reliable and has been a huge help with checking on my dog and my cats as well. I would recommend her for anyone who is looking for someone reliable and who has great communication.”
“Chelsea is a godsend. She was so thorough with extra needs, and understanding of our quirky situation where two of our cats are just strays we've adopted that live outside. We'll definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs,Chickens and many other small animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medications, cleaning homes and crates, grooming, and providing companionship. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs and routines. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy dog who prefers quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine by making it a consistent part of my schedule. Each day, I set aside time in the morning and evening to feed my pet, refresh their water, and clean up any messes. I also make sure to give them attention through walks, playtime, or simply spending time together. Weekly, I include tasks like grooming, deep cleaning their living space, and restocking food or supplies. By keeping a regular routine, I ensure my pet stays healthy, happy, and well-cared for while balancing the rest of my responsibilities. Make them feel as comfortable as possible. Offer them treats,food,and attention. I make sure the animals have plenty of room to run around and play,but also comfortable spots to sleep and eat.
“Great and I intend to return! Our fur babies got along very well. She took very good care of mine even though hers didn't feel that well. He was still feeling his trip to the vet. I highly recommend!”
About: I do offer boarding at my farm. I only take up to 2 dogs at a time. We do a few walks everyday around the 8 acres. They get plenty of yard time. Every dog gets a specialized program with me and one Free training session. Does your animal need meds? No problem. If I can syringe a horse, I can handle a cat or dog (and have) I also LOVE cats. I have had a many cats in the last 28 years. House cats, barn cats, baby cats, old cats. I currently have 2 cats that were ring worm kittens from Paws. I finished up their treatment and adopted them. I can wrangle a barn cat that’s 1/2 feral to go to the vet or get it’s flea/tick meds. Don’t count me out if you have cats! They like me as much as I like them! I have taken care of pretty much any house pet from rats, to ferrets, parrots and snakes. I have had many tropical fish tanks too. Horses, cats and dogs are not my limits. As long as I’m not previously booked, I will be able to accommodate you. It never hurts to ask. I try to stay pretty close to home so I can fit in as many visits as possible but I do have great transportation. I keep safety in mind at all times. I am always aware when I’m walking a dog and will not let them mingle with other dogs or people. I always make sure water is fresh and plentiful. I am very cautious to avoid and loose animals. Your pets health and care are my career and my number one concerns.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! From the moment we met them, it was clear that they genuinely love animals and take their responsibility seriously. Our dog can be a bit shy with new people, but they was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive—quickly building a bond of trust and comfort. Throughout the time we were away, we received regular updates, including photos and thoughtful messages, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear that our dog wasn’t just being looked after, but truly cared for. We came home to a very happy, relaxed dog, which speaks volumes about their professionalism. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a dedicated and compassionate sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book again or recommend to others. Thank you, for treating our dog like family!”
About: I have had a family pet (cats, dogs, fish) my whole life and have pet sit for friends and family as well! I also am a foster for a local cat adoption non profit.

We have a big fenced backyard that is perfect for playing and exploring! We also live on a dead end street with sidewalks, perfect for safe and quiet walks outdoors.
About: I can walk dogs and do house visits any time before during the week. I work in the medical field at a High School full-time. I have always had a passion for caring and helping others. I know what it is like to be a pet parent and would want someone to take care of my cat (current) or dog(current) in the same way that I would when I needed it. If you are looking for someone to care for your pet in the same way that you do, then look no further. I have pristine listening skills and want to make sure all of the things you ask me to do for your pet are done.

About: Hi, I’m Jai! I’m a passionate animal lover, certified dog groomer, and dedicated pet caregiver who believes every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved — even when they’re away from their family. 🐶✨ My journey with animals began through my 4 years in FFA (Future Farmers of America), where I gained hands-on experience with animal care, responsibility, and proper handling. I also have experience working on a farm, which helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior, patience, safety, and the importance of providing consistent care. Throughout high school, I completed 4 years of agriculture classes, including animal science and anatomy studies, which helped me better understand animal health, body structure, and overall well-being. Along with my dog grooming certification, I have built a strong foundation in caring for dogs and understanding their individual needs. I am also continuing my education with the goal of opening my own affordable, high-quality dog care facility, where every pet can receive loving, dependable care without families having to worry about the cost. My passion is creating a place where dogs feel at home and owners feel confident knowing their pets are in caring hands. I understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pup is a playful adventurer, a shy sweetheart, a senior needing extra patience, or a cuddle-loving companion, I take the time to learn their personality and make sure they feel comfortable. When your dog is in my care, you can expect: 🐾 Safe, reliable, and personalized attention 🐾 Plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection 🐾 Walks and activities based on your dog’s energy level 🐾 Grooming knowledge and attention to their comfort 🐾 Regular updates and photos so you can stay connected 🐾 A patient, caring, and responsible environment Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I’m passionate about and continue to build my future around. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own. 🐕💛 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I’m already dedicated to creating a structured, safe, and loving environment. My days are built around routines, responsibility, and making sure everyone’s needs are met — including my furry guests. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure each pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. One of the things that makes my home special is my 4 acres of outdoor space where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime, exercise, and exploring. My property includes a walking trail, a river area, and an invisible fence system that helps provide an added layer of security while they enjoy the outdoors. Safety is always my top priority, and I make sure every pup is comfortable and cared for during outdoor activities. I love creating a home-away-from-home experience where dogs can relax, have fun, and receive personalized attention. Between my animal care background, grooming experience, and love for dogs, I’m committed to giving each pet the patience, care, and affection they deserve. I want owners to feel confident knowing their furry family members are in a safe, loving, and attentive environment. 🐾 When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every dog feels like part of the family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and individual needs so I can provide personalized care. My daily routine allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, including regular potty breaks, meals on schedule, playtime, exercise, enrichment activities, and lots of affection. I have 4 acres of outdoor space where dogs can enjoy supervised adventures, including a trail for walks, open areas to play, and access to nature while being protected by an invisible fence system for added security. I understand that every dog is different, so I follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, comfort preferences, and daily habits. My background as a certified dog groomer, along with my experience through FFA, agriculture classes, and working on a farm, has helped me understand animal behavior, safe handling, and the importance of patience and proper care. My goal is to provide a home-away-from-home experience where pets feel happy, relaxed, and loved while their owners have peace of mind knowing they are receiving dependable, attentive care. 🐾If a pet is crate-trained or an owner requests it, I can comfortably use crates for rest periods, meals, or bedtime to help maintain their normal routine. Throughout the day, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, and I work to keep their schedules as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease while away from home.

About: I bring hands-on, real-world experience from working at a professional dog daycare called Fetch, where I regularly supervised groups of 17–20 dogs at once. This taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play safely, and ensure every dog feels comfortable and enriched. Beyond daycare work, I’ve also done individual dog walking and spent time volunteering at local shelters, where I walked dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. These experiences have helped me build patience, confidence, and strong handling skills. Whether your dog is playful, shy, high-energy, or needs a little extra reassurance, I’m committed to creating a safe, positive, and fun experience for them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I dedicate Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays entirely to it. I treat pet care like a full-time responsibility on those days, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, play, feedings, and attention. When I’m caring for someone’s pet, they become my priority, and I make sure their routine is followed and their needs are fully met. In my own home, I’ve cared for my dog since he was a puppy—we started with crate training and now he enjoys playtime in our fenced yard and daily walks. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable with different routines and training styles. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very flexible and always follow the routine their dog is used to. Whether that means crate time, specific walking schedules, certain feeding instructions, or favorite play activities, I make sure to care for their pet the same way they would. My goal is to keep each dog comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to what feels familiar to them.

“Kevin was prompt to responding to my request for a dog walker. On the same day we set up a date for meet and greet. I received a text message from Kevin that he was on his way. My dog Rory is a 100 pound English Labrador and met Kevin at the door. Right away they both clicked. Kevin told me he had 2 dogs and he was very attentive to my boy. We agreed on the dates and time and I completed the process online. On the first day Kevin texted he was on his way. Rory was excited to go for his walk and was happy as evidence by running to me and wagging his tail when he came back. Every morning Kevin came, Rory met him at the door. I was very pleased with how friendly Kevin was and the attention he gave to Rory. I received 4 adorable pictures of Rory from Kevin while they were on their walks. I definitely recommend Kevin for your dog care needs. Thank you very much.”

Her home was clean and welcoming, with a great fenced-in yard that gave our pup plenty of space to play.

So happy to have finally found such wonderful people to take care of our babies! We will always leave them with Janet and Ken in the future :) Thank you dogvacay for helping us find such an amazing family to take care of our babies!Forever grateful. Xoxo, The Chandani Family”
“Steven was great with my 2 large pups! He sent pictures and was very quick with responding. It was my first time leaving them with a stranger so I was nervous but Steven made sure they were well taken care of and comfortable. He walked, played and hung out with them each day. He even went and bought them a little extra of their food when they ran out! I would 100% use him again!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Kara. This was our first time boarding with her and it was the best experience. She was responsive and kind! We met prior to my dog boarding with her and he loved her and her dogs. During his stay, she provided daily updates even with pictures which was a nice touch and she was very responsive if I messaged her. My dog was so happy to be there and seems like he felt at home which was important to me. When I picked him up, he was so tired from all the playing! Thank you so much Kara! Oliver would love to stay with you again.”
About: I have always had dogs in my life, from growing up with family dogs, owning my own, and dog sitting friends and my family's dogs. I have a large backyard, completely fenced, enjoy walking, and spending time outside. I have two teenage children who love dogs! I am a school teacher so able to board on weekends and summer months. A typical day includes at least one walk and access to the backyard freely all day long. I have a fenced in, large yard, and one dog to keep your pup playing and happy while they are here. I have one cat that is indoor/outdoor and tends to keep her distance:)
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“The dogs had a great time staying with Brooklyn. They loved hanging on the big sofa with her and doing zoomies in the backyard. Brooklyn was very communicative, sent pictures every day while I was on a business trip. Would 100% leave my dogs with her again.”
“Stacey was great! She was very welcoming when we first arrived and made me feel very comfortable. She sent photos and videos throughout the weekend. I know my dog had a great stay and made new friends. We’ll definitely consider booking again!”
“Susan was wonderful and very communicative! She welcomed my pup with open arms and it was a last minute booking. Susan was very flexible and made me feel comfortable leaving my pup with her. I am so grateful and will be booking again!!”
“Anh was absolutely amazing!! She sent pics and updates and was immediately responsive anytime I reached out. Our booking was super last minute (I’m talking 3 hours) and she agreed without hesitation! Our dog fit right in with them and their dogs. Would definitely recommend and would use her again in a heart beat!”
“Jennifer was an outstanding care giver to Neko. Excellent communicatio! It's obvious that she loves animals which made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with her and her family. I highly recommend. Definitely will book again!!”
About: I grew up having tons of pets including cats dogs etc. I went to high-school majoring in agriculture where I focused on animal science . I just have a natural love for nature and animals. I am currently home full time so I have plenty of flexibility to work with your schedule and give your pet extra care and attention. I have a large fenced in yard so we can run and play in. I do live with one mixed husky who's very friendly and up to Date with his shots. Your pet would be need to be able to get along with other animals and 2 toddlers as well.
“Did a great job to make my dogs feel comfortable and at home. One is kinda skiddish but he warmed up immediately. Would recommend to others and book again for sure.”
