“Misty did a good job with my dog, was very responsive, dealt with a skin issue he developed, and gave him his medicine. I would recommend her, and would use her services again!”
“John took great care of our dog, and was excellent to work with. Prompt communication, and he was very accommodating and supportive with an injury our dog has. Highly recommend.”
“Susan was so amazing. She is the kindest person and truly loves all animals. Delilah stayed with her for two nights and had a great time with Susan and the other pups at her house. Her large, fenced yard is a dog's dream. Susan also had great communication and provided frequent pictures and updates. I highly recommend.”
“They took great care of my greyhound Sardine. It was her first time being away from me for so long so I was a little nervous but there was nothing to worry about. Rachel and Nicholas sent me plenty of photos and updates on how she was doing during her stay and made sure she was eating well. They will definitely be my first choice the next time Sardine needs to be boarded.”
“Fantastic! Our pups were super happy when we got them, and had clearly been well cared for! Jenna was available for questions and sent pics so we could see how happy our dogs were. :)”
“Teah and Eric have become my “go to” sitters for my dog, Wilbur. They take such great care of him - as if he were their own. I honestly can’t say enough great things about them! So happy to have found people who I can leave him with without any worries!”
“Jennifer took absolutely wonderful care of Ivy over Christmas! She took Ivy on a wonderful 10 mile walk with her own dogs and gave her a peanut butter bone as a treat. Ivy came home tired and very happy which is a sign of a very spoiled and happy dog who had so much fun while on "vacation".”
“This was our very first time having to board our puppy plus it was the first time using Rover so we were pretty uneasy at first. I can't say enough positive things about the entire process and about Sandy. She first had us meet her and her doggies to make sure it was a good match. It was obvious she was an animal lover and would take great care of our Bella while we were thousands of miles away. Every day she sent photos and texts updating us on Bella's stay which helped set our minds at ease. Bella obviously received a lot of play in the backyard with William and George and received a lot of cuddles and kisses from Sandy. We will definitely be utilizing her in the future!!!”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”
“Alej was so sweet to my fur baby. She sent update a pic of Thor for his overnight stay. She really seems to love pets. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Alej 😀.”
“Raven was such a lifesaver for us. We went out of town last minute, and she was able to take such amazing care of our dog. We are so grateful and will definitely use her again. 🙂”
“Lisa was the perfect person to look after my puggle. Lisa and her family treated Maisie was their own which was very important to me. I would highly recommend her.”
“Tasha & Joseph were able to watch my big bernedoodle for two weeks over the winter holidays and new year, not to mention during a pandemic. They sent photo updates daily and no holiday upcharge or anything (not sure if that's a thing? But they didn't!) which I was very appreciative of. I also love that they have their own dogs so I know that mine got plenty of play in, which she's very fond of. I would certainly recommend them for long or weekend trips alike.”
“Caleigh was great at communication both before and during our dog’s stay with her and my dog looked happy and content throughout her stay. Would recommend and use Caleigh again!”

About: Growing up, I was a total dog lover, but that changed in high school when a friend's three cats completely won me over. I’ve been cat sitting ever since and lived with a roommate's cat for four years. In Summer 2025, I adopted my own cat, Cleopatra, and love being her sole caretaker. I also volunteered as a shelter adoption counselor for two years during college, helping find homes for over 50 cats. I love snuggling and playing with cats, and I can't wait to give yours the best care possible!
“Edina is great! She’s watched my cat multiple times and always sends me so many pictures and videos of him. She also always brings in my packages for me which is always nice :)”
“You always worry when you get a new pet sitter. My regular sitter was out of town. I returned to Rover to hire Shannon and she was amazing ! I know my cats are kinda untrusting with new people ( except one of them ). Shannon followed all my instructions, gave me photo updates and my kitties & I are super happy! Would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for amazing house visits Shannon! 💕”
“Constance did a great job taking care of our fur babies while we are away. I loved her daily check ins with photos and detailed updates that gave me comfort knowing they were well taken care of during our time away. I highly recommend Constance and will be using her services again.”
About: I have had cats in my house since I was born. I currently have 2 of my own and help my partner and mom take care of theirs. I can give medications including injections and fluids. I am currently in school for vet tech and have 5 yrs experience working in vet clinics.
“I hired Rayme to watch my kitties over the holidays. She did an excellent job playing with them, making sure they were fed and watered, and asking me any questions she had. Would absolutely recommend her!”
“Jess was kind and easy to talk to. Took great care of my cat Tibs while I was away on a trip, and worked with me to figure out how to get my keys back when I came home sick. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years and working as a Veterinary Assistant for 2 years. I’m currently in school to become a Registered Veterinary Technician at UC! I have always loved cats and have never lived without one. I currently have two of my own that I treat like royalty. I’m trained to administer oral medication, insulin, subcutaneous fluids, and inhalers. Whether your cat is a zooming baby or a sleepy senior, I’m here to give them the best care! My top priority is the safety, security, and comfort of your cat. Identifying what cats are comfortable with is very important to me. The most memorable thing I’ve been taught clinically is the fear-free approach towards cat care: dim lights, calm voices, gentle touch, etc. As someone who has never lived without a cat, these were common sense to me, but watching others treat them the same as dogs brought cat education to my attention. Every cat has its own personality, quirks, and boundaries and I will always respect them and treat them as my own!
About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life! my favorite being german shepherds but my love for dogs in general is unconditional. cats are definitely growing on me as well. pets are nothing new to me and i’d love to get to know yours!! I have a somewhat flexible schedule. i am available throughout weekdays as well as weekends.However, I do work and go to college, but i want to dedicate the time i do have to taking care of your pets! i’ve had dogs for pets for as long as i can remember so it’s safe to say your dog and i will get along very well. cats are undeniably drawn to me for some reason and i embrace it every time. i have a fence around my house for my german shepherd, Amelia. i love taking her for walks and i’ll do the same for you dogs. i love cuddling with my girlfriends cats and i’m sure your cats will be very happy to hear they can have some love from me too!
“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
About: I currently work as a veterinary technician and have been in the veterinary medicine field for 6 years. I have worked and care for many cats over the past 6 years. Working in an animal shelter gave me the opportunity to work with cats of all ages and all temperaments. I am fear free certified and utilize those techniques with all animals I interact with. I am comfortable playing with cats using anything that is engaging to them, feeding, medicating, and cleaning the litter box when needed. Please let me know any special needs, behaviors, or quirks for your fur baby- I want them to be as comfortable as possible. Their comfort and yours is of the upmost importance to me. I prefer to meet you and your pet beforehand to ensure safety and it is a good fit!
“Leslie was very helpful! she was able to make last minute plans for us with adjustments to our timing too. she provided daily updates and she definitely cared for our cat who had had a very minor surgery right before a family trip. Highly recommend! Thanks!”
“Jessalyn was amazing with Mr. Donut. She came to meet him and took detailed notes of the instructions for his care. I felt calm being away from home and knowing she was taking great care of him. Thank you so much!”
About: We both grew up with dogs and have always loved them. We are proud owners of 2 rescue dogs and love socializing our pups with new dogs and new experiences. Rachel previously volunteer trained service dogs for 4 Paws for Ability. When your pup stays with us, we will spend time playing, walking, running, visiting a local dog park, or cuddling on the couch. We use positive reinforcement to train dogs and correct behavioral issues. We are happy to provide baths if the dog gets dirty with us. Dogs must be up to date on shots. We are mostly available on weekends, since Rachel works as a school counselor during the week and Nick works in finance. We hope you choose us to watch over your precious pups!
About: As a true animal lover, I treat every pet like they’re my own.

About: My family loves animals and we would love to take in your pet for the day! We have a dog park and love to go on walks during the evening. Cats are also welcome as we love to snuggle them ❤️. Your pets will be safe and loved in our care and I am able to communicate with you over phone as much as you need during their stay. We currently just moved from an apartment to a townhome so we have a bit more space now for the animals to lounge around and play! I’m a full time at home mom! Taking care of animals makes me so happy. I always hoped to go into Veterinary medicine one day. Right now I have all the free time in the world to take care of your pets when needed ❤️ Pets will be able to run and play in our home. Feeding will depend on how often you need me to feed. Potty breaks often. Dog park on days with nice weather or walks through the trails in our neighborhood!
“David was great with Myles. He is already going to potty outside after just a week of training with David. I can already see a difference with his behavior and his separation anxiety and also the way he interacts with other dogs. His personality is starting to shine now. I think after a few more weeks of training Myles is going to be in great shape.”
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
“Michael was great! He asked questions to know Rosie better. He kept in touch with us before her daycare date. During her stay he kept us up to date & sent pictures. We would definitely recommend them & would schedule with them again if we visit the area. It was a perfect situation for our Rosie! Thanks, Michael!”
About: I've had at least two dogs my entire life. I've cared for puppies through adult dogs. I have even cared for some with special needs. When your dog stays with me, you also get my whole family to care for them. I'm a stay at home mom and I have plenty of time to care for your baby. I can be with your dog at all times. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs who would love to play and snuggle. I will also walk your dog if you'd like.
About: I’ve been involved with dog rescue for many years. I worked with virtually every type of dog there is. From shy, timid to very high energy. I’ve had dogs that had aggression issues. I worked with dogs on leash training, housebreaking, and socialization. I am retired. I have nothing but time on my hands! I volunteer Thursday mornings at an equine therapy barn. But I will still have time to take care of animals on Thursdays. I am open to caring for dogs in my home. But! They have to be dog and cat friendly. I would prefer not to have younger dogs, only because my dogs are older and don’t like young dogs, jumping all over them. My dogs are very dog friendly though. My cats are very dog friendly. In fact, they prefer dogs over our cats!
“My dog has such a great time when she’s here!! She gets all of her energy out and gets treated great! I love seeing my dog’s pictures at the end of the play date. Katie is the best!”
“Paige was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped off our pup, we felt confident that she was in great hands. Paige has a wonderful, open space where the dogs can safely run and play, and she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us such peace of mind to see how happy and well cared for our dog was. We’re so pleased with the experience that we’ve already booked with her again. We highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”

“Ember had a great time spending the day with Joe and Laurie going on walks and meeting the neighbor kids! She also loved the deck and big back yard! I felt safe that she was in a nice family neighborhood and they kept her on a 100 ft lead in the backyard while playing and exploring. They gave her the treats that I packed and sent me cute photos of her during the day. Will definitely rebook in the future!”
About: I am over the top when it comes to animals. I typically go above and beyond in play and in care. I love to groom them, go hiking or on extended walks and cuddle! I am currently a nursing student who is trying to make extra money so I can stop working during clinicals. Also I have a small child that I could always use extra money for! In my home pets will be in a shared space with toys and activities. I will walk pets every 4-6 hours and will groom both cats and dogs if i see fit (not full groom but wipe eyes, paws, etc) I also enjoy going to the park so if possible i would love to take them to a park near your home or my own
“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
About: Hi, we're Faith and Rusty. Rusty is a senior corgi-retriever mix that loves naps and rolling in the grass. We walk twice a day and enjoy living near plenty of trails and a big park. He is dog-friendly and would love some company. We're open to hosting for dogs, animals in enclosures, and animals that may be harder to find care for. I have a lot of personal experience with animals from pets to exotics, so we would love to host your loved one. I am fully available. I can also add on weekend activities such as a local hike or taking them to a prepaid grooming appointment for an additional fee. I have an aging dog that takes medication and requires accommodation for seperation anxiety, so I am familiar with meeting special needs or adjustments in care. I do not crate pets unless advised due to behavioral concerns, and the pet must be crate trained. For animals that live in enclosures such as rabbits or guinea pigs, I will keep them on a desk or in my room with periods of playtime out of the enclosure as directed by their guardian.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a cat and a 3 year old pit/cattle dog mix. I have owned multiple dogs over the years, including reactive dogs, which gave me hands on experience with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I worked closely with a professional trainer in the past and gained a lot of confidence in handling and understanding dogs of all kinds. Because my entire family has dogs, I’m constantly around animals and genuinely love spending time caring for them. I understand that every pet is different and that some are energetic and social, while others need patience, structure, and a calm approach. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just having a comforting presence around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 7-4, however I am fully remote and my job is relatively flexible. Working from home makes life easy as I can bring my laptop anywhere, (with your permission) and work while attending to your fur babies ☺️. I am fully available on weekends and most holidays as well! While I’d love to welcome every pet into my home, I have a reactive dog of my own, so I currently only offer care in clients’ homes through drop ins, walks, and house sitting. The safety and comfort of your pets and mine will always come first 💕
About: Grew up with dogs. Haven’t had as many dogs as cats as they required more attention than cats and Rover didn’t exist when I was younger. I had 3 dogs in my young adult life over the course of 30 years. Currently we have a 9 year old pittie rescue and she is well cared for. I’m recently retired so my schedule is very flexible. Rover has made it possible for us to travel with peace of mind that our pets would be cared for. So I figured it would be a good fit as a retirement job and now I can give others the same peace of mind. The retired lifestyle has left me very flexible for going to people’s homes to help with their cat and dog maintenance while they travel. Currently not looking to offer in home services.
About: I have a Shih Tzu of my own, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love that dogs need. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who enjoys spending time with dogs. I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, fresh water, and plenty of affection. I will treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give dogs the time and attention they deserve. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of affection. I will always do my best to follow each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and happy. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment where dogs will receive plenty of love, attention, and care. I have my own Shih Tzu, so I understand the importance of keeping dogs safe and comfortable. My apartment is close to two parks, including a dog water park, where I can take dogs for walks and playtime with the owner’s permission. I will always follow your pet’s routine and make their safety my top priority.
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! For me, pet care has never been a side job—it’s always been part of who I am. For more than 20 years, I’ve volunteered with veterinary clinics, no-kill shelters, SPCAs, rescue organizations, kennels, and dog daycares, caring for animals of every age, breed, personality, and need. Throughout my life, people have joked that animals are simply drawn to me, and honestly, it’s one of the greatest compliments I could receive. Building trust with them comes naturally, and there’s nothing more rewarding than watching an anxious dog relax, a shy dog gain confidence, or an excited pup light up when they realize it’s time for our next adventure. After spending years as a Business Operations Manager, my company unexpectedly closed after 108 years in business. Rather than simply finding another corporate job, I decided to follow the passion that’s been in my heart all along—devoting my time to caring for animals. This isn’t something I’m squeezing into an already busy schedule. This is my career. My availability is intentionally built around the pets I care for, which means your dog receives my full attention, flexibility, and commitment. Every service I provide is designed as a boutique, concierge experience, thoughtfully tailored to your family’s routine and your pet’s unique personality, needs, and happiness at every turn. Whether we’re exploring a trail, playing enrichment games, keeping routines consistent while you’re away, or simply sharing quiet companionship, my goal is always the same: to make your pet feel safe, understood, loved, and genuinely excited to see me every time I arrive. I don’t want to be someone who just walks your dog or checks a box on your to-do list. I want to become someone your pet trusts, looks forward to, and feels completely comfortable with—while giving you absolute peace of mind knowing they’re being cared for with the same love, patience, and devotion I give my own dogs, Bubba and Pippa, who are truly family to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I fit into my day—it’s what I intentionally make time for. Every service I provide is personalized and thoughtfully tailored to both your pet and your family’s unique routine, preferences, and lifestyle. I take the time to understand what makes your companion feel safe, happy, and comfortable while also making your time away as stress-free as possible. Whether it’s adventure walks, enrichment, puppy or kitten guidance, medication administration, senior support, transportation, or simply maintaining familiar routines, every visit is designed around your pet’s individual needs. My goal is to become a trusted extension of your family, providing dependable, compassionate care and giving you complete peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and emotional well-being will always be my highest priorities. Every service I provide is thoughtfully personalized—not just for your pet, but for your entire family. I take time to learn your routines, preferences, house rules, training methods, and expectations so my care feels like a seamless extension of your own. I strictly follow all pet parent instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise limitations, behavioral cues, crate or free-roam preferences, and any special care needs. Consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to maintain the routines they’re already comfortable with. For exercise and enrichment, I carefully choose safe, pet-friendly environments. Depending on your comfort level and your pet’s personality, adventures may include favorite neighborhood walking routes, trusted dog parks, nature trails, or supervised play on a private, family-owned seven-acre property with large, securely fenced areas where dogs can safely explore, sniff, and play. Every outing is tailored to your pet’s age, temperament, energy level, and training. Whether I’m caring for an energetic puppy, a curious cat, a senior companion, or a pet with medical or behavioral needs, I prioritize patience, positive reinforcement, enrichment, and careful observation. You’ll receive thoughtful updates, photos, videos, and honest communication after every visit because I know you’re trusting me with a beloved member of your family. My goal is never to simply “watch” your pet—it’s to become a trusted, familiar friend they genuinely look forward to seeing while giving you complete confidence that they’re receiving the same love, attention, and care I’d give my own.
About: I currently work as a veterinary technician and have been in the veterinary medicine field for six years. Growing up, I had a feisty miniature dachshund and a goofy golden retriever. When I moved out, I got my own dynamic duo over the years- a chihuahua mix (Brulee- like the dessert crème Brulee) and three years later an Australian shepherd mix (muffin). Brulee was a very opinionated and particular girl while muffin is a gentle soul and afraid of her own shadow. I am fear free certified and have been since I entered the vet med field, it is something that is very important to me and I practice it with every animal I interact with. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages. If they have special needs, behaviors, or quirks please tell me everything- I want to know all about your pet! Their comfort as well as yours is of the upmost importance to me. I love taking dogs on walks and hikes, allowing them to set the tone and pace- if they want to speed walk, we can do that or if they want to take a leisurely stroll sniffing every blade of grass that is fine too. I will keep your dog leashed the entire time we are out of the house, unless we are in an enclosed backyard. I do not take dogs to dog parks, unless have a well-established recall and if you request me to. However your pet wants to play, I am game- we can play ball, tug of war, hide and seek, or treat puzzles- whatever gets them excited! I am happy to medicate and feed your pet as needed. I prefer to meet you and your fur baby beforehand to ensure safety and it is a good fit! I currently work from home full time and pick up shifts at clinics when I can. My schedule hours vary so I can be available at normal or obscure hours. As long as we can find a window to make it work, I am happy to be flexible for you and your fur baby! I will care for your pets and home like I care for my own. If your pet has specific needs or if you have special requests, I will do my best to fulfill them to keep you and your pup happy, safe, and comfortable!
About: Home away from home care for your pet when you are out of town or just need a staycation. Plenty of room to play indoors and outdoors in our fenced in backyard. Flexible drop off and pickup hours. Lots of hugs and love to make your four legged child feel like he or she is at home while you are away. Keep your pet on their normal schedule. Personalized care for your pet. Check in at any time to see how your pet is doing and receive daily text and video updates of your pet. I would love to host your pet in our home or drop in to your home to care for your pet. Please do not hesitate to text or email me with questions on pet boarding and sitting options that I provide. My weekly schedule is flexible, so I am able to give your pet much time and attention during the week and on weekends when they stay in my home. My partner, who also has over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, works with me to care for your pet. We alternate times during the day to care for your pet so that he/she has full time care and each of us has time to tend to other duties. We ensure that dogs and puppies in our home are supervised at all times. We allow each adult pet the space to roam freely and close off any rooms or areas we want restricted. With puppies, we restrict them to the room where we are as we like to closely monitor the babies. If we have multiple dogs/puppies in the home during your pets visit, feeding and potty breaks are done separately. We may crate or restrict a pets access to roam if we are receiving another guest pet or person 🙂 or if we have to run out of the home to run an errand. We try and follow your indicated pets schedule as closely as possible. You can assured that your pet will receive lots of love and attention while in our home.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with pets and even adopted my own dog in college. I bring years of hands-on experience and genuine care to every pet I look after. I’m currently available most days of the week and would be happy to find a schedule that works best for your dog’s routine, comfort, and care. I am a part-time student and will be starting classes this fall, so I’ll be unavailable on Tuesdays from 10:00 AM–2:30 PM and Thursdays from 10:00 AM– 4:30 PM. Outside of those class hours, my schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to coordinate a time that works best for both you and your pup. I treat every pet like my own. I love taking the time to get to know each animal, understand their personality, and learn what activities they enjoy the most.

I’m working part time at the moment and have flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet on a schedule that works for you! I make sure to keep the dog’s schedule as typical as possible and I listen to any instructions that the owner may have for me.
About: My family has had dogs since before I was born! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and know how to take care of fur babies of all ages :) Almost four years ago I adopted my first cat. Fast forward to today, I am now a mother of two orange special needs kitties. They are my world 🌎 ❤️🐾 I currently work part time and go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On school days, class starts at 9 and I will have an hour and a half between classes to let a pet out to go to the bathroom, feed them, or give them medication. Then I have another class from 1-3. After that, I will be totally free to assist any pets. I also work part time 3-4 days when I do not have school. These are usually 6-8 hour shifts, but I can adjust feedings/walking/medication administration around these times. And when in doubt, I have several well regarded Rover friends that are willing to help out on my longer shifts, with client approval. :-) I have space to keep a crate for overnight visits and live in an apartment complex with some green space to walk and explore. I am also only a few minutes away from five different parks, so lots of options to check out. I have two cats that are dog friendly, but can be separated if the dog is not cat friendly !
About: I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and completely at home while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, medication support, or giving them plenty of snuggles and playtime, I’m happy to step into their routine and keep everything feeling familiar and comforting. I have experience caring for a wide range of pets. I currently have a 4‑year‑old Goldendoodle and a 2‑year‑old Cockapoo, both raised since they were tiny 8‑week‑old pups. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, so caring for pets is truly part of who I am. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member, learn what makes them happiest, and create a sweet, lasting bond that makes them excited every time I walk through the door. My motto: If they’re spoiled rotten, you’re doing it right! 😊 I work full‑time, but I have plenty of flexibility and autonomy built into my schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m especially available on weekends, when I can give your pet even more focused attention, snuggles, and playtime. During every service, safety is my number one priority. I’ll always make sure your fur babies are protected, comfortable, and cared for — whether I’m at your home or mine.
About: I have a little over 3 years of experience caring for my friends and family’s dogs. They have entrusted me in walking their furbabies when they are unable to, feed and bathe them while they are away, and watch them for extended periods of time. I am currently available Monday-Friday after 4 pm to walk your dogs, or check in on them and feed them if you are away. Weekends I have an open Availability. And for extended stays I am available whenever. I do have a full time job however, I work 10 mins up the road and can check in on the dogs while on break. I live in a gated community and we have plenty of outdoor space to walk your dogs or let them out for some freedom. I do have a 7 yr old son who loves to play and entertain dogs.& I have a cage available if need be however they are free to roam the house.
About: I have always been around various breeds of dogs from different types of training. I was always the one to jump up when it came time to feed/walk/bathe/pill/groom the dogs around my family and the neighborhood. I have always figured out how to comfort and help the anxious or reactive dogs, my goal was and is to just help these animals exist as happily, heathy, and peacefully as possible. I’ve fosterf puppies, fostered and retrained aggressive adolescents, and nurtured seniors. They give true unconditional love, I only wish to return it. I have a pretty open schedule currently, so I can easily adjust my schedule to make sure your pet gets the most fulfilling experience with my time with them. Although I cannot watch your dog at my own home, I am willing to monitor your dog through the entire visit to ensure they do not cause damage at your home or to themselves. I know plenty of ways to stimulate your pet inside and outside.
About: I have had many different kinds of dogs since I was a child and have grown to love them ! I have been working at a dog daycare part time since January and have learned a lot about managing and caring for dogs. I work part time and am in college right now but am available the weekdays after 3 and anytime on Friday. Saturdays and Sundays I have work but can still squeeze in time. I care for dogs in others home the same I do in mine.. with love and compassion. I feed, take them out, and give them plenty of attention !
About: With over 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I bring trusted, compassionate, and reliable care to every pet I meet. From energetic puppies to senior cats, I understand their unique needs and ensure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after, treating them as the members of family they are. I am currently a Stay At Home Mom to a 3 year old adventurer. This allows my schedule to be flexible and proficient. I am enthusiastic about creating as many opportunities as possible to help clients in their time of need. I currently have a fenced in yard and an sasilt walkable neighborhood. I also love to take dogs dogs for hikes and allow them to explore nature and creeks, especially on the those hot days. It prices to be rewarding and stimulating for able animals to spend time beneath the trees.

“Susan was so amazing. She is the kindest person and truly loves all animals. Delilah stayed with her for two nights and had a great time with Susan and the other pups at her house. Her large, fenced yard is a dog's dream. Susan also had great communication and provided frequent pictures and updates. I highly recommend.”
“They took great care of my greyhound Sardine. It was her first time being away from me for so long so I was a little nervous but there was nothing to worry about. Rachel and Nicholas sent me plenty of photos and updates on how she was doing during her stay and made sure she was eating well. They will definitely be my first choice the next time Sardine needs to be boarded.”
“Fantastic! Our pups were super happy when we got them, and had clearly been well cared for! Jenna was available for questions and sent pics so we could see how happy our dogs were. :)”
“Jennifer took absolutely wonderful care of Ivy over Christmas! She took Ivy on a wonderful 10 mile walk with her own dogs and gave her a peanut butter bone as a treat. Ivy came home tired and very happy which is a sign of a very spoiled and happy dog who had so much fun while on "vacation".”
“This was our very first time having to board our puppy plus it was the first time using Rover so we were pretty uneasy at first. I can't say enough positive things about the entire process and about Sandy. She first had us meet her and her doggies to make sure it was a good match. It was obvious she was an animal lover and would take great care of our Bella while we were thousands of miles away. Every day she sent photos and texts updating us on Bella's stay which helped set our minds at ease. Bella obviously received a lot of play in the backyard with William and George and received a lot of cuddles and kisses from Sandy. We will definitely be utilizing her in the future!!!”
“Alej was so sweet to my fur baby. She sent update a pic of Thor for his overnight stay. She really seems to love pets. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Alej 😀.”
“Tasha & Joseph were able to watch my big bernedoodle for two weeks over the winter holidays and new year, not to mention during a pandemic. They sent photo updates daily and no holiday upcharge or anything (not sure if that's a thing? But they didn't!) which I was very appreciative of. I also love that they have their own dogs so I know that mine got plenty of play in, which she's very fond of. I would certainly recommend them for long or weekend trips alike.”
“Caleigh was great at communication both before and during our dog’s stay with her and my dog looked happy and content throughout her stay. Would recommend and use Caleigh again!”

I will always follow your pet’s routine and make their safety my top priority.
“Chrissy was absolutely wonderful. My Poppy girl really enjoyed herself. Her playtime wore Poppy out. We are so glad we found Chrissy and I know Poppy is too. I would highly recommend her.”
“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”
“Karen was amazing with my high energy fur baby! She provided updates throughout the week and genuinely loved my dog. She reinforced her training, not allowing her to go wild.I’d definitely book with Karen again… I have a Weimaraner and not just anyone can manage a Weim! Karen is top notch..”
“Kimberly did a fantastic job with both of our dogs. We received frequent updates, she took them both on walks, and checked in before giving them treats. We will definitely be using Kimberly again.”
“Paige was great with communicating, on time for drop off and pick up and overall just a great fit for my pup. I truly feel like the universe brought her to me because both of our babies names are storm! I appreciate Paige so much and can’t wait to book her again! My baby came back home healthy and happy!”
“Luna had a great time with Christina. Receiving the photos of Luna with a smile on her face was so reassuring to us while we were away on vacation. Luna had a wonderful time with Christina's children and their dog Rylee. Christina did a wonderful job. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Luna. I can tell she misses your family.”
“Kiersten provided a happy, loving, and relaxed environment for our doggo who is often anxious in boarding situations. Boo had a wonderful time playing with her other dogs and Kiersten took great care of her!! Will definitely use Kiersten again!”
