“Holy cow! Thanks Tim and Kathy! They took such great care of our 2 dogs for 2 weeks. So flexible on meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. Our high energy boxer is wore out, super unusual. And our high maintenance older pointer mix is just as peaceful as ever, his respiratory issue was taken care of well and that's a lot to keep up with. I can't say enough how much my wife and I appreciate the care they gave them. The fenced in yard with a good wood pile, walks, and pictures gave us peace of mind the whole time. We will book again with them anytime we need to and they're available.”
“We are so glad we found Pamela because she provided a wonderful home-away-from-home for our pooch. We received several photo updates each day, which was very reassuring; we could tell he was well cared for and happy. He came home more relaxed and not exhausted like he is when he goes to a kennel. We'll definitely bring him back any time we go out of town! Great experience!”
“Kate was a wonderful sitter! She was responsive and asked a lot of questions to ensure she gave Yeti the best care. He had a blast running around her backyard and playing with everyone. We really appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“i’m pretty sure my dog was upset that i was taking her away from Beth’s retreat when i came to pick her up lol Beth was very thorough during our meet n greet. you could tell that caring for our pup the way we do was super important to her which we loved. she was very communicative and attentive to Cookie’s needs. she sent pictures and video’s throughout. we will definitely be booking with her the next time we’re in need!”
“Maxine was a fantastic sitter for my puppy! Took her on hikes almost daily and handled her meds and everything with no issue. She also took some fantastic photos and shared updates daily. Highly recommend!”
About: Like many others, I am a dog lover and was raised taking care of family dogs. Unlike others, that passion led to training and classes, competing in dog sports, and now, competing in dog shows. I have experience with many breeds of all sizes, senior pet care, reactive dog care and training. I would love to help you with your pet care needs! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most dogs’ needs. I currently have open availability for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop in visits. Dogs are treated like one of my own! I take your dog out for leashed potty breaks several times a day, according to their needs. While I am working, your dog can settle on the couch or one of the many dog beds, or relax and play with my dogs (a Golden Retriever and a Foxhound). If your dog likes the crate, I have an extra for them. When I run errands, your dog will be crated or gated in a separate room from my dogs for safety. I live on 4 acres next and next to a cemetery, so I can take your dog for relaxing walks in a peaceful environment.
“Mariema was fantastic! She took our brand new 2 year old rescue with little helpful instructions from us and kept her busy, having fun and getting all that energy depleted each day. We got daily pictures and insights into her behavior. Would highly recommend and will be asking Mariema to keep this whirlwind again for us!”
“Spencer was fantastic. He was communicative, professional, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was comfortable and well cared for. He was attentive and picked up on little personality details, making the experience even better. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Highly recommend Spencer and would absolutely book with him again.”
“Aaron and Kaylee took a good care of my cat and dog! They followed the instructions and sent me updates while I was away. They responded promtly and were tursted. Will book them again in the future.”
“Kim watched Sir Sparklepuff for 17 days, following our relocation. We had been worried about leaving him at such a transitional time, but she made the extra effort of meeting him prior to his stay with her, first in our home, then in her own. His stay seems to have gone quite well -- he was returned to us happy and well-cared for. Kim also sent us daily photos which were absolutely remarkable -- professional quality! She clearly spent time connecting with him, and playing with him. We are sure to use her services again, and cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Andrea took great care of my lil pup on her first overnights without me. She was communicative, has a fenced in yard, a great dog walking neighborhood and I would love to have Rox stay with her for future trips.”
“Caitlin and her family watched our two miniature poodles for 8 days. She consistently sent us pictures of them so we could see how they were doing. When we picked up the dogs, they were not excited to leave. Her children were adorable and really bonded with our dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Lauren was great. Our pups can be a handful and she was wonderful. They came back happy and well cared for. She was a great communicator and everything went smoothly from booking to drop off to pick up.”
“Roxanne was amazing! This was my first time with Rover and I have a “quite the only child” husky. I am that mom who is worried about everything and nothing! Roxanne is a great communicator, allowed us to meet and greet, pick up and drop off were both easy, and during the booking she sent pics of my baby boy every day. She took special care of his needs and even took him on outings. Sebastian had a great time and we look forward to visiting Roxanne and Capone again. An extra thank you!”
“Angi and David were great! Our dog got walks, playtime, and seemed to feel right at home. They kept us updated during our dog’s stay and even sent us pictures. I felt so comfortable and would certainly work with them in the future!”
“Keira was her usual revved up self while she stayed at Jennifer’s and skinned up her nose trying to poke it out beyond the chain link fence to gather more smells. It appears to be healing ok. Jennifer seems like a thoughtful, caring person.”
“We love Dixie and she lives dogs. We were fortunate to find her and have used her twice now for several days of overnight stays. Her house and property are perfect for any dog as there's plenty of space to run and Lounge out. But the great thing that really made me feel super comfortable was her love for animals and her attention to detail regarding feeding and sleeping arrangements. I have several more business trips coming up this year and Have No Reservations on using Dixie”
“Amazing with our pups. Respectful of our requests. Our one dog recently had surgery and Dianna and Matthew were great with him and his needs. You also get great photos. We will definitely be using their services again in the future.”
“Jeffery was exceptional in every way! He cared for my two pups like they were his own and they came home happy little dogs. When my plans changed and I had delayed flights, he was flexible and kept them for another night - no issue at all. The farm setting provided lots of stimulation for the pups and I’m sure they learned a lot in the process!”

“Bill and Emma were terrific caregivers over the course of 11 days. They provided very consistent care and attention for and to my older cat, along with many photos and daily notes 2x/day for his human. I would have them care for Benny again without hesitation.”
About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I currently have a pitbull/lab mix named Penny and I walk her twice a day, daily. I am great with both big and small dogs; Walking, feeding and playing. I absolutely love cats as well and have experience in cleaning out litter boxes. In fact, I volunteered at a cat shelter in 2017. I cleaned the rooms, cages, fed the cats, and cleaned out the litter boxes. I take the care of animals extremely seriously and want every owner to know that their pets are in the right hands. I know that I would want the same for my pets that I love so dearly. I am very flexible with hours and short notice jobs.

“The best cat/house sitter. Bobbi Jo took great care of my two cats, made sure they were fed and litter was clean and that they mostly stayed out of too much trouble, and also took care of my home during a snowstorm. Bobbi Jo was very responsive as well and communicated consistently.”
“While I'm traveling, I've had Teri do daily visits to check-in on my cat. I've hired her for multiple trips over the course of two years. She has always done a great job and been excellent to work with!!”
“Richard cared for our 16 year old cat that has chronic health issues. Our cat takes several medications twice a day and eats a prescription diet. He did a great job, was very responsive, responsible and would contact me if he had a question. We felt like we left our cat and home in good hands. I will hire Richard again in the future when we need someone to look after our cat.”
About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I have been on Rover for several years and am starting up my business again. I LOVE being outdoors and am always happy to take dogs on walks, to the park, or even spend time by the lake. I have a 6-year-old chihuahua mix named Ghost, who I fostered before adopting. I completely understand how to support dogs who may be a little “sassy” and just need extra patience and love...because trust me, chihuahua's have BIG personalities! Ghost also has Addison’s Disease, which has given me several years of experience managing daily medications and have been trained by my veterinarian on how to administer his monthly injections. I’m confident and comfortable caring for pets with medical or special needs. I’m also a volunteer with Happy Tails (Ontario County Humane Society), where I continue to deepen my commitment to animal care. In addition to dogs, I have a cat of my own and am happy to care for cats too, whether that’s feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, or just providing plenty of snuggles. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority! I’m currently working from home with a flexible schedule and can work around your schedule! I’m happy to stop by whenever is convenient for you. I prefer at least a day notice in advance if possible. I will follow whatever instructions you provide. Does your pup need a walk? Does he/she need to play fetch in the backyard? Or does he/she just need cuddles? I’m happy to provide multiple levels of care because I care about your pup!
“Rachel took excellent care of my cat! She was very friendly and stellar at communicating: she always kept me in the loop about my kitty. I recommend working with Rachel; next time I need pet care, I'll ask her first.”
“Amazing!! Our dog looks forward to her visits and we know he is in good hands. Keeps communication open and goes above expectations while caring for our dog. Would highly recommend”
About: Note: 98% of my business is private clients because Rover does not send me much business. My prices reflect my time with your loved pets and we hope that you would pay us more than your cleaning lady/man because your fur kids are of most important to you. Right? I am booked probably 1/2-3/4 of the month on my own but I would love to help you thru Rover. My prices reflect my service and need to charge an amount which Rover will take 20% of my fee. Why you should pick me as your preferred petsitter: I am responsible. Love Pets and your pet(s) are where they belong - in your/their home - unless I am hosting your pet(s). I administer oral and injectable medication to pets as you prescribe. Dogs, cats, fish and birds love me. I stay because it is good for your pets too and I don't want to drive to your home everytime I feed your pet. I save you time by not having to drive to the dogggy/pet hotel. If you need more info, please let me know - plenty of references. Every client hires me again. Note: If you lie about the number of pets and kind in your home, I think that honesty is the best policy if you want my help and I want you to be honest with Rover and since I will be in your home. We need mutual respect. Hiring me is not about saving money, it is about keeping your pet in a familiar and happy environment. My first interview is by phone before I come to your house. Please send me your phone number upon request of my services plus your cross streets and zip code. I send pics if your wifi is working. Please let me know how often you want pics emailed to you. Please note: Pet Day Care: 8 hour sessions but you get a discount for a 4 hours request. * (e.g. for pets who are infermed, are escape artists, pets with anxiety issues etc) or you just want them to have company. I sometimes send pics from my phone and not ROVER app so my photo rate is lower than expected. On Christmas week - I may be hosting at a second home. Housesitting is an evening service to for me: My evening rate starts with the evening meal sometime after 6 pm and ends with the serving of breakfast dependent upon my schedule. If you want need more services or hours let me know and the cost will increase*. Housitting means that I am coming to your home to petsit vs you boarding your pet at my home. It means that I go in and out of your home based upon my schedule. If you want a midday walk or specify times of service, there is an extra visit fee which will be added. Likewise, an early arrival before dinner/service after I serve breakfast should be booked as a stop in or midday visit or additional day. Ask, if this is not clear. Your home should be clean including bed sheets and a towel for me. Please make sure your stove and oven are free of anything that can cause a fire or melt with heat. My fee does not include cleaning or snowplowing/shoveling of snow. Please make appropriate arrangements before and during my stay for snow removal. I am available for morning and night meals along with sleeping over. I would go in and out of the house like a normal pet parent. But, if you want service outside the serving of the evening/morning meal/overnight stay, then please add a walk/visit request to the pricing agreed to on Rover. My visit time depends on the day requested. Periodic Potty Break/walk. care for pet in my lower part of my home. serving of Meals provided by pet owner.

About: I have worked with mostly dogs with walking and some training. I have also worked with cats, lizards, birds, and guinea pigs. Any kind of animal works for me. Pet care fits in most of my schedule. I work a 3-11 shift but am able to fit sitting in when not at work. I love animals and enjoy their company. I love walking and hiking and animals make the time even more relaxing. I cannot have pets in my home but can travel to your home to watch your pets in their environment where they can be more comfortable. I can walk or care for them any way that is needed. I'm a fast learner.
“Heather was super sweet, understanding and very responsive! She understood my circumstances for needing my kitty Poptart watched and had no complaints with how last minute my request was. When there was an interference with the pickup time, she was completely understanding and didn’t charge extra. I even told her about Poptart’s disliking of other cats, and she kept her in a room separate from her own and even offered to introduce my cat to hers to get her more accustomed to being around other cats in the future. Overall, she was a wonderful sitter and I’ll definitely consider her again in the future!”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Kathy and Tim were wonderful! They have a beautiful home tucked into the woods, and a shady fenced in area for dogs to play. They were welcoming, and took good care of my dog Roni. Roni spent the day with Tim and Kathy, and loved playing with their dog Bailey. I hope to become a regular customer! Do not hesitate to bring your pup to stay with Kathy and Tim!”
“Hiedi was over the top great! She went above and beyond to give my dog Archie a great first daycare experience. She went to lengths to make sure he was comfortable with her dog, and vice versa. He came home totally happy, relaxed and tired. He can't wait to see Hiedi and Kenzi again!!”
“Jennifer was so easygoing and able to accommodate with little notice. My energetic puppy enjoyed playing with the other doggos. He was well taken care of, stayed all day, and slept well when we got home after a fun filled day. Will use again in the future.”
About: I have raised and cared for my families dogs as well as my own personal pets since I was a child. From puppy days to senior life, I have experienced it all and have enjoyed every moment of it. For me, having dogs around is a must! I currently work 4 days a week at a brewery in Rochester. I am available for walks and check-ins Tuesday/Wed all day, Thursday-Friday 8am-11am. Sunday's are open and negotiable as well! I enjoy spending time outside (park, trails, yard) with the active dogs, and talked to/petting the lazy/sleepy ones while they lounge inside. I live close to some wonderful parks, and enjoy throwing a ball around or just taking a stroll.
“Jill was just great! Flexible and friendly, quick with all communication. She was very attentive to Marshall’s needs and made sure that all the dogs integrated well. Marshall had fun playing with her dogs and going on walks. We received videos of him having a good time. Will definitely bring Marshall here again whenever we are in the area.”
“Alexander was super kind. Our dog seemed very happy after arriving at his place. When we met at the end of the day , she was happy to see us, but a bit of a sad glance back as we left Alexander. Two things to note: actually lives closer to Watkins Glen than the address on profile (as of July 25th, perhaps it's been updated). There is no fence on the property, but the driveway is long with trees and is removed from the road which isn't super busy. Our dog gets distracted by squirrels, etc. So we left him with a long lead for her and she was very safe on the property. Bonus: she is now napping. Generally a sign of a fun time.”
“Charlotte was incredibly responsive when trying to organize a booking and provided numerous updates for me when she was watching Bear. Her attention to detail and care is wonderful and I will absolutely be using Charlotte again for my pup! I highly recommend her services!”
“Samantha is wonderful. Booking was done last-minute, on a holiday, no less. Samantha was kind, responsible, on-time, and would have sent intormation about my dog every 20 minutes if I wanted it. Highly recommend.”
About: Our family loves animals. It’s evident when you drive up to our house and see the goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cats and dogs. We have lots of experience with lots of animals, at all stages of life and with administering medications. Now that the kids are all in school. I have extra time to spend with my 4 legged babies and yours. We enjoy hiking, long and/or short walks around Canandaigua. I am a responsible and respectful professional. I will take care of your pet and home as if it were my own. I want to earn your trust and loyalty.

“Kate is very kind and easy to communicate with. She took great care of my Bella and always asked important questions. I know Bella had so much fun — her daughter played with her, and I’m so happy that my pet had a wonderful time and was well cared for by Kate and her family.”
“Margaret and her husband were the most amazing and kindest people we have ever met. They were both so caring and loving to our pup. We are eternally grateful for them. Both were so respectful, listened to all the instructions, and were extremely responsible for pup introductions. They have the kindest and most well behaved dogs. Bonus; they were so kind and considerate about ensuring my small pup’s boundaries, making sure they were being met, with slow introductions, and space to decompress!!! They are without a doubt the best dog people. They care, they love, and your pup(s) would be in the best hands ever. I’d I could give 1000 stars I would :)”
“My dog came home happy and exhausted from a long day of playing! Dixie sent me a couple of updates throughout the day and I had no worries at all. Dixie was also very flexible with my crazy work schedule, and at the end of the long day she didn't want my dog to leave because they had such a good time. 10/10 and would definitely use again.”
About: Our pets are family, and it can be scary sometimes when you don't know who is caring for them while you're gone. Under my care, I treat every fur baby like they were my fur baby. I grew up living with dogs, a Bichon Frise and a Pit Bull, which taught me how to communicate and care for dogs of all sizes and dogs breeds with separation anxiety. I'm pretty active and am currently training for the NYC 2022 Marathon, so I love to run/walk with my dog Casper. About a year ago, Casper and I moved in with my partner Victor and his 2 cats, Jewel & Scarlett, in Rushville, New York. Initially, we were nervous about introducing them so we started slow by keeping them in separate rooms with a gate. Once they became more comfortable and curious about each other (more on the cats end), we took the gate down after a couple days. It was a seamless living transition if there ever was one. Now all 3 love hanging out on the play mat together with their toys or taking naps nearby each other. We're looking for more furry friends to keep them company and to nap together! Our house is quite spacious with a large open living and family room for lots of play time and nap time. We have plenty of treats and running water fountain for dogs and cats. Our house has a huge front & backyard (not fenced) to run around on leash. When it snows, we love making dog trails around our property because what dog doesn't love to run in the snow! And I'm very experienced in putting on dog boots if needed. Lastly, we are a 15-20 minute walk to Canandaigua Lake, and live 3 minutes from Bare Hill. Currently, Victor and I are started a small business that will be launching this Spring. We work from home Monday-Friday and make our own hours so we are flexible. And I'm available on the weekends and any last minute bookings. Before any booking, I would like to set up a Meet & Greet to learn what I need to best care for your fur baby(ies) and to make sure Casper and your dog(s) get along (Doggy Day Care). The dates I'm currently unavailable are July 8-24, 2022 and Sept 1-5, 2022. My Home: spacious living and family rooms for dogs to run around, a play mat area with toys, and plenty of space to bring your dog's bed so he/she feels comfortable and at home. We have plenty of treats and running water fountain for both dogs and cats. Outside, we have a huge front and backyard, although it is not fenced, still a lot of space to run around on leash. And if your dog loves to run, he/she is welcomed to join our running pack. We're a 15-20 min walk to Canandaigua Lake, and a 3 minute drive to Bare Hill Unique Area. Your Home: I will request a Meet & Greet before booking, and would like to do an initial house visit to learn where the pet food, toys and cleaning supplies are located. Along with learning if your pet has any special needs like medication. I will be a respectful guest in your home and make sure your fur baby(ies) are loved and cared for while you are away.
“Wonderful care!!! Jeffery has a great set up to take care of dogs. He really cares about your fur babies comfort, as well as your comfort. He kept me well informed about my dogs stay, including how they interacted with others and outdoor potty habits. Osborn and Sullivan will be regulars at Jeffery house!”
About: My dogs and I are ready to watch and play with your pets! We love meeting new friends and are more than happy to accommodate you. I'm currently working from home and am generally home all throughout the day to play with and hang out with your pets. If I have an errand to run, I can always let you know ahead of time. We have a fenced in area for the dogs to play and splash if they want! If I do leave the house, I generally crate my dogs and would also crate your pet if you need. If the pet is fine to be out and unsupervised, that is fine too.
“We can’t say enough great things about our doggy daycare experience! From day one, the communication has been incredible, we receive tons of pictures and thoughtful updates that truly give us peace of mind. It’s clear how much care and attention goes into every day. Spencer has also been so flexible and accommodating with our schedules when things come up, which we really appreciate. Most importantly, Xena absolutely loves going there! She gets so excited and comes home happy and tired every time. The socialization she’s getting has been amazing, especially as a puppy. It’s been such great preparation for her development and confidence. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust completely with our girl!”
“Randi was amazing with Lucky! She went above and beyond to keep him happy and comfortable, and her communication was great both before and during the booking. She sent regular photo updates that gave me total peace of mind, and it was clear Lucky was having the best time. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely book with Randi again the next time we’re in the area!”

I LOVE being outdoors and am always happy to take dogs on walks, to the park, or even spend time by the lake. I have a 6-year-old chihuahua mix named Ghost, who I fostered before adopting.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. It started with my family dog, along with family members dogs. I would walk them and feed them. I then got my own dogs that I do all care for. I started fostering with a local rescue in 2022. I’ve cared for dogs with medical issues. Anywhere from Seizure disorders, parasites and other various medical issues. I treat every dog that I care for as if they’re my own. I currently work full time, M-F 730a-330p. I am able to check in, walk, feed, etc, dogs before work, during my lunch and after work. I have 2 dogs of my own. We live in a 3 bedroom house. Unfortunately, I don’t have a fenced in yard. I do take my dogs on multiple walks everyday along with utilizing a tie out (if they want to stay out longer), and would do the same with yours, so they get some outside time.
About: I’ve owned pets ever since I was little. Family and friends have always had me watch their pets! I am very detail oriented and good at following instructions! I have lots of free time since I am in the job search right now! My availability is wide open for me to take care of your loved one! Very trustworthy, as a young professional dog watcher and cat watcher I will make sure your loved one is taken care in the best way! If you need plants watered too, I would be more than happy too!
About: I have worked with mostly dogs with walking and some training. I have also worked with cats, lizards, birds, and guinea pigs. Any kind of animal works for me. Pet care fits in most of my schedule. I work a 3-11 shift but am able to fit sitting in when not at work. I love animals and enjoy their company. I love walking and hiking and animals make the time even more relaxing. I cannot have pets in my home but can travel to your home to watch your pets in their environment where they can be more comfortable. I can walk or care for them any way that is needed. I'm a fast learner.
About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friend’s dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because I’m a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possible—hiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!
About: I’ve had dogs in the family my entire life. My parents currently have 3 Lab/Australian Shepard mixes that I care for often. I’ve also dog sat for multiple friends on several occasions and loved every minute of it! I’m currently working full time at home. My apartment complex is pet friendly and has it’s own dog park that I can access. My 1200 sq ft apartment provides ample room for running space and my schedule allows for me to provide as much attention as needed to your pet! I’m happy to provide all the cuddles or ball throwing your pet may want! Just let me know what works best for you and your pet.

About: I've only looked after our family friend's 2 dogs Skully and Hanna for 2 separate weeks, but it made me want to get a dog myself even more. My first time dog sitting with 2 pups was a success, and it was honestly really fun getting them each a pup cup from Starbucks one of the days, and spoiling them with treats and fruits safe for dogs like blueberries and mangoes. Hanging out with them in general was also a blast. This is something I'm really looking forward to doing in the future. I'm working full time for fairport schools starting this Monday, but should be available in the mornings and after school, which ends at 2:40. I'm also a musician and I have gigs from time to time in Rochester, but it's nothing I can't work my schedule around. The last time I dog sat, the routine went like this: Get up at 7:30 to let the dogs out, then feed them the 1.5 cups each of dog food, let them out to go potty again. Then we would hang out, rest, or start the day until about 2 when we would go on a big walk either throughout the block or to a path on the canal. After that, we would go back again and hang out until about 5:30 when I would let them out, feed them, and let them out again. Then, I would let them out once more for the night before bed. That schedule basically repeated, then I also did some cool extraneous things with them like watching the show about the dog from "Up" on Disney Plus, throwing them sticks and a ball to play fetch with outside, letting them sleep on the beds if the owner says they can, feeding them treats, etc. Also made sure I cleaned up and left the clients home looking exactly how it was when I got there. I like to Febreeze too for some reason to make the house smell good. Looking forward to doing more of this.

“Holy cow! Thanks Tim and Kathy! They took such great care of our 2 dogs for 2 weeks. So flexible on meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. Our high energy boxer is wore out, super unusual. And our high maintenance older pointer mix is just as peaceful as ever, his respiratory issue was taken care of well and that's a lot to keep up with. I can't say enough how much my wife and I appreciate the care they gave them. The fenced in yard with a good wood pile, walks, and pictures gave us peace of mind the whole time. We will book again with them anytime we need to and they're available.”
“Kate was a wonderful sitter! She was responsive and asked a lot of questions to ensure she gave Yeti the best care. He had a blast running around her backyard and playing with everyone. We really appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“i’m pretty sure my dog was upset that i was taking her away from Beth’s retreat when i came to pick her up lol Beth was very thorough during our meet n greet. you could tell that caring for our pup the way we do was super important to her which we loved. she was very communicative and attentive to Cookie’s needs. she sent pictures and video’s throughout. we will definitely be booking with her the next time we’re in need!”
“Maxine was a fantastic sitter for my puppy! Took her on hikes almost daily and handled her meds and everything with no issue. She also took some fantastic photos and shared updates daily. Highly recommend!”
About: Like many others, I am a dog lover and was raised taking care of family dogs. Unlike others, that passion led to training and classes, competing in dog sports, and now, competing in dog shows. I have experience with many breeds of all sizes, senior pet care, reactive dog care and training. I would love to help you with your pet care needs! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most dogs’ needs. I currently have open availability for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop in visits. Dogs are treated like one of my own! I take your dog out for leashed potty breaks several times a day, according to their needs. While I am working, your dog can settle on the couch or one of the many dog beds, or relax and play with my dogs (a Golden Retriever and a Foxhound). If your dog likes the crate, I have an extra for them. When I run errands, your dog will be crated or gated in a separate room from my dogs for safety. I live on 4 acres next and next to a cemetery, so I can take your dog for relaxing walks in a peaceful environment.
“Mariema was fantastic! She took our brand new 2 year old rescue with little helpful instructions from us and kept her busy, having fun and getting all that energy depleted each day. We got daily pictures and insights into her behavior. Would highly recommend and will be asking Mariema to keep this whirlwind again for us!”
“Spencer was fantastic. He was communicative, professional, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was comfortable and well cared for. He was attentive and picked up on little personality details, making the experience even better. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Highly recommend Spencer and would absolutely book with him again.”
“Andrea took great care of my lil pup on her first overnights without me. She was communicative, has a fenced in yard, a great dog walking neighborhood and I would love to have Rox stay with her for future trips.”
“Caitlin and her family watched our two miniature poodles for 8 days. She consistently sent us pictures of them so we could see how they were doing. When we picked up the dogs, they were not excited to leave. Her children were adorable and really bonded with our dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Lauren was great. Our pups can be a handful and she was wonderful. They came back happy and well cared for. She was a great communicator and everything went smoothly from booking to drop off to pick up.”
“Roxanne was amazing! This was my first time with Rover and I have a “quite the only child” husky. I am that mom who is worried about everything and nothing! Roxanne is a great communicator, allowed us to meet and greet, pick up and drop off were both easy, and during the booking she sent pics of my baby boy every day. She took special care of his needs and even took him on outings. Sebastian had a great time and we look forward to visiting Roxanne and Capone again. An extra thank you!”
“Angi and David were great! Our dog got walks, playtime, and seemed to feel right at home. They kept us updated during our dog’s stay and even sent us pictures. I felt so comfortable and would certainly work with them in the future!”
“Keira was her usual revved up self while she stayed at Jennifer’s and skinned up her nose trying to poke it out beyond the chain link fence to gather more smells. It appears to be healing ok. Jennifer seems like a thoughtful, caring person.”
“We love Dixie and she lives dogs. We were fortunate to find her and have used her twice now for several days of overnight stays. Her house and property are perfect for any dog as there's plenty of space to run and Lounge out. But the great thing that really made me feel super comfortable was her love for animals and her attention to detail regarding feeding and sleeping arrangements. I have several more business trips coming up this year and Have No Reservations on using Dixie”
“Amazing with our pups. Respectful of our requests. Our one dog recently had surgery and Dianna and Matthew were great with him and his needs. You also get great photos. We will definitely be using their services again in the future.”
“Jeffery was exceptional in every way! He cared for my two pups like they were his own and they came home happy little dogs. When my plans changed and I had delayed flights, he was flexible and kept them for another night - no issue at all. The farm setting provided lots of stimulation for the pups and I’m sure they learned a lot in the process!”
“Willow has a new best friend in Ray! Ray was very attentive to her needs and to ours as we had to extend Willow's stay due to a medical procedure. He took Willow out for walks and made her feel comfortable in a new setting, even working from his home to keep her company. I would book with Ray again.”
“Tara provided a welcoming home environment for our older dog, Ruby. Unlike recent kennel stays, Ruby returned healthy and relaxed. I would recommend Tara as a pet sitter.”
