Catherine was amazing! Her and her husband were very sweet and knowledgeable! They took the time to do a proper meet and greet which helped my dog get to know them and made my experience so comforting to know exactly where my dog would be as well as get to know who my dog would be staying with. They sent updates throughout the entire time. My dog was so happy, well cared for, and felt at home. Highly recommended booking Catherine!

About: Dogs have surrounded me since childhood, and many of them were rescues, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and needs. Caring for dogs has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your beloved furry family member will be safe, loved, and exceptionally well cared for, so you can travel or enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your beloved four-legged family member is safe, happy, loved, and receiving the same level of care I would give my own pets. I live and work from my private home. Your pup will find I have plenty of time and room to take care of them. Your VIP dog will receive loving care and boarding. Rest assuredly when you’re in need of doggie care! I have a home with a private fenced in yard and have two friendly pups of my own and a large separate area for your pets if required. Since I work from home they will not be alone, which is very nice to know.

I had a last minute emergency of not having someone to watch kylo while i went away. after constant searching my boyfriend recommended i try Rover and i found Jennifer . She was accommodating, sweet and attentive from the first meet. i was a bit nervous as a first time user for the app and i’ve never had anyone who wasn’t family take care of kylo, but she’s trustworthy and always sent updates on Kylo and how he was doing and he was settling in very easily. her environment was something i loved for kylo to be around, she was always around with kylo and gave him constant attention, cuddles, and her dog Sadie, was just as energetic as him. i’m glad he wasn’t alone and it definitely eased my mind to know he was in a safe environment surrounded by people and other pet friends. my encounter with her was so smooth and last minute but i’m glad she took Kylo in and treated him like her own. if you’re unsure of leaving your pet with someone i 100000% recommend her ! i know kylo had a blast with her and i would definitely love for her to watch kylo for future because of how happy he was and i was knowing he was cared for

About: I offer doggy day care in a safe, loving home with a large fenced-in yard for plenty of supervised play and exercise. I have experience caring for shy dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, so I understand that every pup has different needs, energy levels, and comfort zones. My two friendly dogs help create a welcoming, social environment for dogs who enjoy companionship. I focus on making each dog feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while providing owners with peace of mind through dependable care and updates Pet care is a natural part of my routine. I work full time during the week, so I make sure pets get loving care, exercise, and attention before and after work. Since I have weekends off, I’m able to provide lots of extra time, play, and personalized care then. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. Pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I also have a large fenced-in yard for outdoor play and two friendly dogs for social interaction if your pet enjoys companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I understand every pet is different, so I always adjust my care based on their personality, energy level, and needs. My goal is to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind through dependable care and updates

Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.

About: I was raised with dogs from the time I was born, and our home was always full of animals — be it bunnies, turtles, hamsters or parrots! I’m now a proud pet mom to two cats, Tortellini and Simone, and one pup, Frankie. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and attentive to care for your pets while you’re away. My pup, Frankie, is always happy to make new furry friends, and I love making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just extra love and companionship, I’ll treat them like part of my own family. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I’m a researcher who works from home, so my schedule is flexible throughout the week. I’m available for weekday care, weekends, drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Since I spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently offer care in my client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’m very respectful of each home and each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, litter box care, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I’m also comfortable managing different household setups, including keeping pets separated when needed, handling multi-pet homes, monitoring doors/gates carefully, and making sure each pet feels safe, calm, and cared for.

This was the longest time she has ever been away from us and we felt assured she was in good hands. Looking forward to having you take care of Dolly in the future.

Christine was fabulous. She was conscientious and took great care of our cat. She is the first cat sitter we’ve booked (of 2-3 Rover sitters) who has actually come at exactly the time we asked her, consistently. Beyond that, when our travel plans had to change because of airline problems, Christine kindly agreed to extend the booking - even though it was the holidays and I’m sure she had other obligations.

About: Dogs have surrounded me since childhood, and many of them were rescues, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and needs. Caring for dogs has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your beloved furry family member will be safe, loved, and exceptionally well cared for, so you can travel or enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your beloved four-legged family member is safe, happy, loved, and receiving the same level of care I would give my own pets. I live and work from my private home. Your pup will find I have plenty of time and room to take care of them. Your VIP dog will receive loving care and boarding. Rest assuredly when you’re in need of doggie care! I have a home with a private fenced in yard and have two friendly pups of my own and a large separate area for your pets if required. Since I work from home they will not be alone, which is very nice to know.

From the moment we dropped Nessa off until the time we picked her up, we were pleasantly surprised by how completely at home she felt with Marla. Normally, Nessa is very apprehensive when meeting new people, new animals, or even visiting a new place. But from the moment Marla opened the door, our normally shy and hesitant little girl ran right into the house to greet Marla and all of her pets. To say my husband and I were shocked would be an understatement! Watching Nessa happily run off to play filled this mom and dad with so much joy. While we were attending our niece’s wedding, we kept checking our phones, fully expecting a call or text saying Nessa was crying or looking for us. That message never came—because she was apparently having the time of her life! When we returned to pick her up, Nessa was excited to show us all of her new friends. It was obvious she had been well cared for and truly enjoyed her stay. We could tell that Marla treated Nessa as if she were one of her own, and there is no greater compliment we could give. We only wish Marla lived in Connecticut instead of New York. Finding someone who genuinely loves and cares for your pet as though they were part of their own family is incredibly rare, and we would trust her with Nessa again in a heartbeat.

About: I was raised with dogs from the time I was born, and our home was always full of animals — be it bunnies, turtles, hamsters or parrots! I’m now a proud pet mom to two cats, Tortellini and Simone, and one pup, Frankie. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and attentive to care for your pets while you’re away. My pup, Frankie, is always happy to make new furry friends, and I love making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just extra love and companionship, I’ll treat them like part of my own family. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I’m a researcher who works from home, so my schedule is flexible throughout the week. I’m available for weekday care, weekends, drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Since I spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently offer care in my client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’m very respectful of each home and each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, litter box care, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I’m also comfortable managing different household setups, including keeping pets separated when needed, handling multi-pet homes, monitoring doors/gates carefully, and making sure each pet feels safe, calm, and cared for.

My Ginger enjoyed her doggie day care with Sarah! Sarah kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos of Ginger and her new friends. She was a sleepy girl when she got home too! Sarah was caring for Gingers timidness on a walk too. Highly recommend and will use Sarah as a dog sitter in the future!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years and truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their dogs while they’re away. I’m currently a nursing student, and the compassion, responsibility, and attention to detail that I’m developing in healthcare carry over into the way I care for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers quiet cuddle time, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently a nursing student with a flexible schedule,which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. Because my classes vary, I’m able to provide lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. Your pet will never feel like they’re just another booking—they’ll receive the love and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard and one friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys meeting new friends. If your dog prefers their own space, I can easily crate them if requested or keep them separated when needed. I offer care in both my home and yours—whatever makes you and your pet feel most comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely to help them feel at home and reduce any stress while you’re away.

About: Hi! I'm Cat, and it is my literal pleasure to care for your dog, cat, lizard, bunny, or parrot! What you can expect from me: -Fast, clear, and concise executive-level communication. -Deep breed-specific knowledge of behavior underpinned by my time as a vet receptionist -High quality photos -Easy, flexible scheduling -Complete focus and attention to detail -Genuine joy and enthusiasm to care for your pet In my previous life, I was a design program manager within corporate tech (Meta, Comcast, Pinterest), and I'm thrilled and privileged to pivot into pet care. I have cared for dogs of every size, flavor, and temperament. I have extensive experience training dogs, and quite frankly, I've watched a whole lot of Westminster dog show. In particular, I have specialized experience with shy or nervous dogs and will provide them the space and understanding needed to relax and feel comfortable. I am happy to walk or jog to help burn canine energy. Not afraid to get down in the dirt and play! I have been deeply involved in cat rescue since 2020, when I began working remotely. I have fostered dozens of cats over the years. This includes kittens with complex medical issues. I am very capable at medicating cats and kittens as well as identifying when a cat may be feeling unwell. When you board with me, your pet will not be left alone for more than 1 hour. I only board pets from one household at a time and provide dedicated personal care. When your baby is at my house, they are family. Feel free to reach out with any additional questions. I'm currently working remotely doing project-based contract work, so I have plenty of availability and scheduling flexibility. If boarding or house-sitting, I will be fully available and no pet will be left alone longer than an hour. I have a friendly chihuahua mix (8 lbs) and 2 cats, but if needed, I have plenty of room to give everyone their own space. I have an unfenced backyard with plenty of room to romp. Dogs will always be leashed or tethered in yard.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs (and other animals!) for many years. Family, friends, and co-workers have relied on me to watch and care for their pets whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, even taking them to the vet. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages, from senior bull mastiffs to pugs under a year old. There is no dog too big or too small because they’re all perfect to me. I’ve also found lost dogs and helped them return to their owners! I have experience caring for anxious dogs, blind dogs, deaf dogs, dogs with mobility issues, and dogs that require medication. Other animals I’ve taken care of include: cats, parrots, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. Pets are so precious, they’re such an important source of joy in their family’s lives so it’s such a privilege to be trusted with their care!! :) Pet sitting is currently my full time job, so I have lots of time to give your animals the special care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs to run around in. I also have a car so I’m able to take dogs to the dog park or dog beaches nearby (if that’s something they would enjoy). At a client’s house I still follow any guidance/schedule given to me. In between I typically take the dog’s lead. I’m at their house so it’s important to me that I respect their space (and the clients above all)! I like to take their cues to make sure that their sense of routine isn’t disrupted.

About: I have hands-on experience working with animals through both therapy dog work and my previous experience as an assistant to a veterinary technician. This has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and how to handle pets with care, patience, and confidence. I’m comfortable supporting pets with different needs and always focus on making them feel safe, calm, and well cared for. Working from home allows me to be a consistent, calming presence for your pet throughout the day whether at my home or yours. I truly enjoy spending that time with them—whether it’s going on walks, giving them attention, or just being nearby so they don’t feel alone. I know every pet is different, so I follow their lead and make sure they feel comfortable and secure, whether they’re full of energy or prefer a more relaxed, quiet routine. I keep your pet’s routine consistent while providing attentive care, companionship, and a calm presence. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet time, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I am also a photographer which could lead to getting some great photos while you are away!

Finding Cheri has been a Godsend. This is the first time we've ever needed daycare and we were hesitant to leave Otto with anyone. On top of that we had a few other experiences with people who were unreliable. Cheri, above all else, is a dog lover in every sense of the word. I see it from the way she greets Otto in the morning, to the way that she texts me during the day to tell me whats he's doing or asking if he can do certain things, to seeing how tired he is at the end of the day from a day of full activity. Cheri walks him, takes him on runs and she and her boys play with him in the backyard all day long. I couldn't be happier with everything she does and recommend her highly to anyone looking to find a safe and healthy place to leave their dog with complete peace of mind.

Pluto and myself had a great experience with Magdalena. She picked up my pup and took him for a walk with her dog Frankie. I was a bit anxious as Pluto is sometimes afraid of dogs larger than him but Frankie is such a lovely pup — they got along very well. I also saw them running around and playing in Magdalena’s backyard when I picked up Pluto. Overall — great experience and will be using Magdalena’s services in the future.

About: I’ve always possessed a deep love for animals and have grown up around pets my entire life. I have several years of hands-on experience working at a grooming salon, where I assisted with bathing, feeding, and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve also volunteered at local animal shelters, which helped me better understand dog behavior, body language, and each pet’s unique emotional needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I would be honored to care for your furry family member like they’re my own! 🐾 I recently graduated and am taking a gap year, pursuing additional courses as an aspiring physician assistant and working part-time in healthcare. My schedule is very flexible throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. I’m generally available most weekdays and weekends, except Thursdays.

I’m attentive to body language, feeding schedules, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and have over 15 years of personal experience owning and caring for pets. As a lifelong cat owner who has raised four cats, I know exactly what it takes to keep felines happy, healthy, and comfortable. In addition to my own pets, I have years of experience pet-sitting for neighbors, handling everything from daily walks and feeding schedules to playtime and basic cleanup for dogs of various breeds and sizes. I treat every animal with the same level of love and responsibility as my own. My schedule allows me plenty of flexibility to dedicate high-quality time to your pets. I am available for weekend boarding and house sitting, and my weekdays are wide open for afternoon and evening visits, walks, or check-ins. Because I can manage my time effectively, your pet will never have to wait long for a bathroom break, a fresh meal, or some energetic playtime. Safety is my absolute highest priority when watching a pet. I maintain a highly organized, safe, and clean living space where animals can relax without stress. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow all security protocols, ensure doors and gates are fully secured, and strictly adhere to your specific rules regarding crating, feeding, and leash safety during walks.

I'm currently working PT as a home health aid and have flexibility and free time Tuesday through Saturday to walk and hangout with your beloved fur baby.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, I lived with two tuxedo cats who completely stole my heart. As I got older, I took on many of their daily care responsibilities, including feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they felt loved and comfortable. Today, my wife and I are proud pet parents to two black cats. In addition to caring for cats, I have experience watching a toy poodle puppy under one year old. My responsibilities have included taking her outside for regular bathroom breaks, supervising walks, engaging her in play and exercise, teaching basic tricks and commands, reinforcing good behavior, and helping her work through separation anxiety. Caring for a young puppy taught me the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, patience, and attentiveness to a pet's individual needs. Whether caring for cats or dogs, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment where pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I strive to give each pet the same level of attention and affection that I would want for my own. i work part time in the mornings and am available most days after 1pm. I am a doctoral student at Stony Brook University, so I am flexible to watch your pup or kitty any time in the afternoons/evenings. If needed, I can do an early morning stop by at 6:30AM prior to heading to work. in my clients home, I will be respectful of property, taking off shoes before entering the house, cleaning up any messes that the animal/myself may create, ensuring the animal has food, water, litter box, toys, etc. accessible, and to lock up the house, windows, and any gates prior to leaving the home. I will always accommodate the clients requests. In my home, I have multiple floors to separate my animals from the animal(s) coming into my home. I also have a fully fenced in, large backyard for a dog to run around in. We have a home security system as well to ensure safety.

About: I’ve previously worked for another pet service where I took dogs on walks and did drop-in visits. I also have some experience with cats, but I have a 5-year old dog myself. I have experience taking care of elderly dogs as I dog sat for a family friend for a few months and stayed the night at their house once a week. I would take the dog for walks, spend time with him and give him any medication he needed. I love animals and it doesn’t feel like work to take care of them for me. I am a teacher, so I am free during school breaks and on weekends. When I am not working full-time at school, pet care will be my first priority. I will listen to any requests made by the pet owner for what they want me to do, such as letting them out in a fenced backyard or keeping them on a leash. I also have experience crate training my dog and find that can be a safe place for dogs too.

Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their dogs while they’re away. I’m currently a nursing student, and the compassion, responsibility, and attention to detail that I’m developing in healthcare carry over into the way I care for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers quiet cuddle time, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently a nursing student with a flexible schedule,which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. Because my classes vary, I’m able to provide lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. Your pet will never feel like they’re just another booking—they’ll receive the love and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard and one friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys meeting new friends. If your dog prefers their own space, I can easily crate them if requested or keep them separated when needed. I offer care in both my home and yours—whatever makes you and your pet feel most comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely to help them feel at home and reduce any stress while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs (and other animals!) for many years. Family, friends, and co-workers have relied on me to watch and care for their pets whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, even taking them to the vet. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages, from senior bull mastiffs to pugs under a year old. There is no dog too big or too small because they’re all perfect to me. I’ve also found lost dogs and helped them return to their owners! I have experience caring for anxious dogs, blind dogs, deaf dogs, dogs with mobility issues, and dogs that require medication. Other animals I’ve taken care of include: cats, parrots, guinea pigs, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. Pets are so precious, they’re such an important source of joy in their family’s lives so it’s such a privilege to be trusted with their care!! :) Pet sitting is currently my full time job, so I have lots of time to give your animals the special care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs to run around in. I also have a car so I’m able to take dogs to the dog park or dog beaches nearby (if that’s something they would enjoy). At a client’s house I still follow any guidance/schedule given to me. In between I typically take the dog’s lead. I’m at their house so it’s important to me that I respect their space (and the clients above all)! I like to take their cues to make sure that their sense of routine isn’t disrupted.

About: Aside from caring for my own cats, I have extensive experience handling and caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. I am a certified dog trainer and have worked at vets and pet stores in the past and am comfortable with all breeds and sizes! I am super excited to care for your pup/cat and help you relax knowing your baby is in the best hands! I have had dogs of my own, babysat overnight and during the day as well. I have also looked after family friends’ horses, hamsters, and birds. I am planning to go back to school to earn a degree in Zoology/Animal Behavior in the future. I have enough knowledge to perform first aid on pets if necessary and will put their safety and comfort first! Please reach out to get more details about my schedule as I can be flexible. I am looking to make pet sitting my full time work! I usually let pets take their time to get to know me. Once they are familiar and comfortable, I make sure to give lots of love!

About: Dogs have surrounded me since childhood, and many of them were rescues, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and needs. Caring for dogs has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your beloved furry family member will be safe, loved, and exceptionally well cared for, so you can travel or enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your beloved four-legged family member is safe, happy, loved, and receiving the same level of care I would give my own pets. I live and work from my private home. Your pup will find I have plenty of time and room to take care of them. Your VIP dog will receive loving care and boarding. Rest assuredly when you’re in need of doggie care! I have a home with a private fenced in yard and have two friendly pups of my own and a large separate area for your pets if required. Since I work from home they will not be alone, which is very nice to know.

I had a last minute emergency of not having someone to watch kylo while i went away. after constant searching my boyfriend recommended i try Rover and i found Jennifer . She was accommodating, sweet and attentive from the first meet. i was a bit nervous as a first time user for the app and i’ve never had anyone who wasn’t family take care of kylo, but she’s trustworthy and always sent updates on Kylo and how he was doing and he was settling in very easily. her environment was something i loved for kylo to be around, she was always around with kylo and gave him constant attention, cuddles, and her dog Sadie, was just as energetic as him. i’m glad he wasn’t alone and it definitely eased my mind to know he was in a safe environment surrounded by people and other pet friends. my encounter with her was so smooth and last minute but i’m glad she took Kylo in and treated him like her own. if you’re unsure of leaving your pet with someone i 100000% recommend her ! i know kylo had a blast with her and i would definitely love for her to watch kylo for future because of how happy he was and i was knowing he was cared for

About: I offer doggy day care in a safe, loving home with a large fenced-in yard for plenty of supervised play and exercise. I have experience caring for shy dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, so I understand that every pup has different needs, energy levels, and comfort zones. My two friendly dogs help create a welcoming, social environment for dogs who enjoy companionship. I focus on making each dog feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while providing owners with peace of mind through dependable care and updates Pet care is a natural part of my routine. I work full time during the week, so I make sure pets get loving care, exercise, and attention before and after work. Since I have weekends off, I’m able to provide lots of extra time, play, and personalized care then. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. Pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I also have a large fenced-in yard for outdoor play and two friendly dogs for social interaction if your pet enjoys companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I understand every pet is different, so I always adjust my care based on their personality, energy level, and needs. My goal is to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind through dependable care and updates

Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.

About: I was raised with dogs from the time I was born, and our home was always full of animals — be it bunnies, turtles, hamsters or parrots! I’m now a proud pet mom to two cats, Tortellini and Simone, and one pup, Frankie. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and attentive to care for your pets while you’re away. My pup, Frankie, is always happy to make new furry friends, and I love making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just extra love and companionship, I’ll treat them like part of my own family. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I’m a researcher who works from home, so my schedule is flexible throughout the week. I’m available for weekday care, weekends, drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Since I spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently offer care in my client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’m very respectful of each home and each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, litter box care, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I’m also comfortable managing different household setups, including keeping pets separated when needed, handling multi-pet homes, monitoring doors/gates carefully, and making sure each pet feels safe, calm, and cared for.

John treats my dog like his own. John really seems to enjoy the time he has with Deuce. The funny thing was, Deuce hardly wanted to go home with me when I picked him up. Deuce wanted to continue to play. I don't have to worry at all when I leave Deuce with John.

Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of Dolly. She obviously felt safe and content in your home with loving attention by both you and your husband Jim. This was the longest time she has ever been away from us and we felt assured she was in good hands. Looking forward to having you take care of Dolly in the future.

About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. We’re CPR and First Aid certified, giving you extra peace of mind while your pup is in our care. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.

Samantha has taken such great care of our fur babies. She is caring and loves them like they were her own pets. I can always count on her to give them the attention they need. They are both senior dogs and need special attention and care. I would not hesitate to use her when we need her services. I would highly recommend her any time.
