“Zurijanne is so amazing! I am so blessed to have found someone with such a wonderful home to look after my fur baby! I highly recommend her if your sweet playful puppo needs a wonderful home of friends to play with!”
“I needed care for my senior dog, Cookie, so I could attend a workshop out of state. I didn't want to leave Cookie boarded back home for an extended time, so it was great for Madison to care for my dog in her home near my workshop. Cookie was well cared for and I appreciate that all her needs were met. I really appreciated the updates and photo. Madi was great to work with!”
“Jennifer has been very professional and on the top of everything, including keeping me updated with pictures and sending me timely text updates. Her diligence and communication has been excellent.”
“First time using Rover with our Dog. Allan did a great job watching our dog. He provide updates daily with pictures and was very responsive to messages. Would highly recommend and would definitely have Allan watch our Dog again. Thanks Allan!”
“Jayden and his wife Lisa are amazing dog sitters. I left my dog Buddy with them over two weeks while flying outside of the country. They we're very flexible and attentive to all of my requests, and promptly communicated any changes with him while in their care. Buddy and their dog Redford became fast friends and Buddy quite clearly loved spending time with their kids, making a bed out of their trampoline. It was so nice to get updates and see just how much fun they had with him. Buddy says hi and thanks again!”
“What an amazing 1st visit my little guy had with Skip and Mary!! He even got to meet a little friend during his daily (and multiple) walks (Miss Gracie) and they were like two peas in a pod. He was pampered and cared for just like he was their own. Beautiful stay and will definitely be back.”
“Rachel took amazing care of our 2 doggies, Eddie & Isabelle! She kept us updated and sent pictures every day which really put me at ease (we've only ever left them with family). She was very responsive and pleasant! Overall experience was excellent! I would definitely recommend her :)”
“Janelle was great. Laid back and yet her animals are the center of her world you can tell. And she made my Mia right at home. Giving her special attention. Thanks.”
“Our dog Daisy had a great stay. We were sent photos and up dates periodically through out each day. She always looked happy, playing, eating or resting. She came home happy and healthy. We would absolutely recommend and book again!”
“Debra did great with our young puppy! We were worried when we dropped him off because he’s been so shy and scared of everything at home. Debra’s communication was amazing and she kept us up to date on how the little guy was doing. After bringing him back home he’s now super engaged, exploring a lot more, playful, and the complete opposite of shy. Clearly he had a very positive experience with his stay. We will absolutely use Debra again in the future!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Cindy. Cindy and her husband were very friendly. They treated our dog as if it was their own. I will definitely use Cindy again. Highly Recommend.”
“Erin was amazing with our dog Kenai! She watched him for us while we went on our honeymoon and truly made Kenai feel at home! She sent plenty of updates and pictures to give us space of mind and we could tell Kenai just loved her and her dog Baz when we went to pick him up! I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Barb! She watched our dog for nearly 20 days and kept us completely at ease with regular photo updates and great communication. When we faced unexpected travel delays, Barb was incredibly understanding and flexible. She is reliable, professional, and attentive—we will absolutely book with her again!”
“I can't recommend Paige enough as a dog watcher! She took exceptional care of my two dogs for a week, and I could tell they were in great hands from the moment I met her. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and loving, which gave me peace of mind during my time away. She kept me updated with daily photos and texts, showing me how my dogs were doing and even sharing some funny moments. She took the time to learn their routines, ensuring they felt comfortable and at ease. Both dogs were happy and healthy when I returned, and it was clear they had enjoyed their time with her.”
“Kristin took great care of my doggy. She updated me regularly and I didn’t feel worried at all while I was away. Her dog Nala was so sweet to Brew and they seemed to have a great time together. I would definitely recommend her!”

We have two dogs of our own, they are livestock guardians and spend most of their time outside, but they are an integral part of our family and have been decently socialized with other dogs.
“Walker is a bit needy, but Maria & Augustin met all of those needs and took great care of him! They were very communicative and kept me updated with everything over the 4 days they had him. Walker seemed to really like them, and he didn't want to come home at first. I'm very happy with how the stay went.”

“Kaity is absolutely amazing. She adapts to my cats’ medical needs, plays with them for exercise, pets them, communicates well, sends great updates, sends adorable update photos, and has always been professional. I trust her and highly recommend her. My cats also love her.”
About: I can't remember a time I didn't have a cat in my life. I've personally handled the rehabilitation and care for more strays than I can count. I have a great understanding of a cat's dichotomy. I'm available for love and affection 24/7, but also understand and respect a boundary (cats can be grumpy and that's okay). I spent the last year in Virginia house/cat sitting for a family member deployed overseas, and am now back home looking to offer care and respect.

About: I have taken care of cats (and other small animals) since I was an in-home pet sitter in college. Once my husband moved in 13 years ago, I began caring for his 2 cats. They were in their mid-lives and we helped them over the rainbow bridge a couple of years ago. Now, we have an exuberant 2 year old cat who loves anyone and anything!
“Diana did amazing with Paisley while I was gone on my trip for a week. This was my first time using rover and she exceeded my expectations! She sent daily updates and pictures and you can tell she really loves & cares for animals. She made it a point to meet my cat before and get to know her. I will definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong cat lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. I currently have two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of keeping their routines consistent, giving them attention on their terms, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Along with caring for my own pets, I’ve house sat for families for weeks at a time and have experience caring for multiple cats in a home. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic care, and giving plenty of love and companionship. I also work at ProMedica Flower Hospital with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable care and quality time with your cat. I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Natalie was great! Kept great communication before and during her visits. Really grateful she was able to check on the cats and the house for us!! Would definitely recommend. Thanks again!”
“It was our first time using Rover, and Hannah was such a good choice! Our two kitties seemed to get comfortable with her really quickly and were so well taken care of! Hannah was very detailed in her notes for each visit and sent many pictures where we could see that our babies were cared for and having fun. We will definitely book her again when we're out of town!”

About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart! I used to have cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them while you’re away. I also love cat sitting for friends and getting to know each cat’s unique personality—whether they’re playful and social, shy and independent, or somewhere in between. I know cats are happiest when they can stick to their normal routines, so I do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their people are away. From meals and fresh water to litter box cleaning, playtime, cuddles (when they’re in the mood!), and plenty of attention, I’ll treat your cat like they’re my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, so I’m always happy to provide updates and pictures to help give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure both you and your cat feel comfortable and cared for🖤
About: I've had cats all my life, since I was about 6 years old. My parents weren't very attentive towards them, so I would make sure they were comfortable, fed, and when I made my own money I kept up on their health too with vet visits and medications.
About: I’m a trained cat sitter with a strong background in animal care. I attended NSTC (animal care school), where I studied Small Animal Science and Veterinary Science. Through my training, I gained hands-on experience administering medication, recognizing early signs of illness, and safely handling cats in a calm, gentle way. I also work as a grooming technician, with experience in nail trims and dremmeling, including cats who are nervous, wiggly, or not thrilled to be there. I’m very attentive to feline body language and stress signals, and I always prioritize a cat’s comfort, safety, and emotional well-being. Whether your cat is confident, shy, spicy, or somewhere in between, I’m patient, observant, and committed to providing kind, knowledgeable care 💛🐱
“Natasha was wonderful! She was very thorough and communicative, and we never had to worry about our cats while we were away because she was so on top of everything. She spent plenty of time with them on each visit, and also kept us updated with lots of photos. Our cats are senior citizens and need medications, so they're not the easiest to take care of, but Natasha handled everything incredibly well. We would happily have her watch our cats again.”
About: I’ve always had a love for cats and animals in general. I grew up with two cats of my own and even fostered cats when I was younger, which helped me learn how to care for cats with different personalities and needs. I love how every cat has their own little personality, whether they’re playful, cuddly, shy, or more independent. I have experience with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving attention and affection, and making sure cats feel comfortable and safe in their own space. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your cat with the same love and care I would give my own.

“It was the first time we’d left our little one with a dog sitter, and we were a little worried because ever since we adopted her, she’s always been very shy and tends to be afraid of strangers, but Jenifer was amazing with Hazel. She was extremely friendly and kept us updated on our little ball of fur, making her feel like she was part of a second family. My husband and I are very happy—we’ll definitely be back.”
“Emily was awesome to deal with. Very friendly, great communication and flexible with time. My dog really enjoyed his time with her and will be going back next time we’re in town!”
About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for over 26 years, and pets have always been a big part of my life. I’m experienced with dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I make it a priority to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while they’re in my care. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime, extra cuddles, a calm place to relax, or simply someone dependable while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable and right at home!🐾❤️ I’m home full time, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day.

“He did a phenomenal job! I booked last minute and he was very accommodating. He brought Dakota into his home with Kya and Roo, and made him feel very welcome.”
About: Hi, I’m Ariel! I’m a former nurse and now a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. Caring for others has always been a big part of who I am, and that same compassion extends to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a comforting presence while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care. As someone who is home throughout the day, I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are things I genuinely look forward to. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure each pet gets the time, consistency, and care they deserve while they’re with me I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality, energy level, and routine
“Samantha took care of our 5 month old puppy and she was great! He stayed over night with her and he had a great time! Her dog gets along with others and Tito was so excited to have a playmate for the day! She has experience with fostering dogs so she definitely knows how to care for them! Would recommend anyone to her for day care needs!!”
“Celene is legitimately the best dog sitter you could ask for. She not only is an early riser but is a night owl. Celene sends updates and ask questions without even being asked. She not only puts effort in towards jaxsons training she has even went out of her way to teach us on how we could be doing different/better. Celene also makes sure that jaxson gets the proper food/water/bathroom breaks as he needs. He doesn't come back hungry, needing to potty, or beat up. Penny, celenes dog, is hands down the cutest little thing I've ever seen. When I get there she is happy to greet me at the door with kisses and tail wags. Jaxson also loves penny and always comes back PROPERLY wore out. My final thoughts are if I could had another grandma I would ask her. Shes been there for us EVERY time we've need her and that's at the end of the day all I could ask.”
“Comer & Joan put our minds at ease when they babysit our pups. They treat them like we treat them.- like family. They are very attentive to the needs of our dogs and their safety. But we have a dog that is very skittish and they are so patient with him if you’re looking for someone to watch your fur babies looking no further Comer & Joan they are the perfect people”
About: Hello! My name is Leila (pronounced Layla), and I am 25 years old. I am looking for a role as a pet provider of any fashion needed. I consider myself a kind, nurturing, and supportive individual who loves every pet or family member as if they were my own. With over 15 years of pet experience, I have worked in shelter facilities and lots of individual homes with many different pets. Most recently, I've been providing nanny services for date nights in my area and every house has one or more fur baby that I spend my time with. I am familiar with feedings, walking, medication techniques, and even one house I sometimes help take their dog to the vet with them! I have worked with cats, dogs, ducks, chickens, rabbits, turkeys, and when I was younger, I had a house with horses as well. I've worked with up to 6 dogs at once, all big/energetic dogs, so I know how to handle big and loving energy haha! I even know cat and dog CPR from learning online and doing research on my own in case I ever need it. I love learning new facts about animals and pets, and I definitely love to learn the basics of emergency situations and care too, which always comes in handy whether you need it or not. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet(s), building a special bond and friendship with everyone involved. I strive to be a dependable person and always aim to provide my best support to others. Hope to hear back from you soon, thank you for your time! I usually have an open schedule and I’m always happy to help however and whenever. I’m usually at home with my own animals anyways so I’m always down for more fuzzy cuddles! I treat each and every animal as if they were my own (and I spoil my pets like crazy)! I follow the instructions of each family down to a T if that’s what needs to be done and if there is any room for my own input or festivities, I always try to make it more fun or loving or easier for everyone involved. Pets have emotion and feelings just as much as babies do, so if you’re going to care for any animal, treat it as if you’re raising a baby, something precious and sweet, because that’s what they are.
“Arling and Mary took great care of my 8-month-old Pomeranian pup. He was comfortable and content with them and they took him on multiple walks and provided great care! Sent updates and took photos. Would use them again in the future and recommend.”
About: I’ve worked professionally as a horse trainer, wildlife rehabilitator, zookeeper, animal cruelty investigator and farm animal sanctuary manager. As of 2026 I now offer sitting and boarding for dogs and cats in my home or yours. In my home, your dog or cat would have the space exclusively to themselves as there are no other animals or kids in the house. I can also service horse farms including feeding, cleaning and overnight stays. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and I don't take that lightly. I guarantee that your animals will feel safe and comfortable with me, and you'll rest easy knowing they're in experienced hands. I look forward to working with you! I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, outdoor time in my fenced yard, and companionship without long absences. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable experience based on each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, dogs have a peaceful environment and access to my fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Because I work mostly from home and don’t have other animals right now, I’m able to give them consistent attention, companionship, and a relaxed setting. For cats, I have a private bedroom available for those who may feel uneasy at first or need their own space. The room includes a cat tower, cozy cubbies, and a full bed with soft blankets arranged into comfortable nesting spots. This gives them a quiet place to decompress and adjust at their own pace, while still receiving attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal feeding, exercise, and care routine so things feel familiar and low stress. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I’m attentive to details like energy level, mood, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is comfortable and doing well.
“Angelika provided last minute care for my dog. She was quick to reply, flexible, kind, and friendly. Charley had a great time, spent time outside, went on a walk, and snuggle on the couch. It was a great day!! Highly recommend!!!”

About: I've raised and trained my doodle River (seen in photo), trained a rescued beagle (wouldn't recommend), and regularly been a babysitter/housesitter for 6 huskies (not afraid of getting hairy and dirty). I love all animals, and I have the patience of a saint. I have never had a shortage of love and care for dogs. My schedule is very fluid, and there will seldome be a time I can't fit in care. I'm punctual, available, and responsible. Availability will change with pet care scheduling. Visits will be frequent and timely, stays will be clean and respectful, and walks are just good for everyone involved. I was raised clean and well-mannered. My parents gave me the motto "Leave a place looking better than when you arrived". This is a strict virtue of mine. Your home is your home, and it will be treated accordingly.
About: I have had dog(s) and/or cat(s)in my life for over 40 years. Animal lovers are very special…I am one of those people that love animals! I work full-time with flexible hours. Animals are welcome to join me in my workplace. I take walks daily and would love to have a pup to walk with. I can watch pets in my home or in clients home and will offer loving care to offer comfort to the client’s pet. I want to ensure that the pet I’m watching or walking is feeling loved and at peace. My son and daughter-in-law have a very nervous rescue so I have experience with nervous pups too!
“Natalie is so wonderful with my two big boys! She's familiar with dog behavior and seems to actually LOVE what she does! I would recommend her to anyone considering a dog walker. She actually exercises them, just as they need! She helps me out more than I think she realizes. I am a very grateful dog mom. ❤️”

“Grace is so reliable and always follows instructions. & she makes the most out of every 30 minute visit with my dog no matter the weather. He’s well cared for, fully exercised, and absolutely adores her!”
About: I was an in home pet-sitter in college (1999-2003) where I would take care of their dogs, cats, and home while they were away. Honestly, it was the best job I've ever had! In addition, I have been a dog trainer since 1992. Training my own dogs is a passion I enjoy sharing through teaching in classes. Also, I worked in a few vet clinics over 18 years where I was a receptionist and veterinary assistant. Currently, I have a 15 year old papillon, 2 year old Brittnay, and 2 year old cat. These guys are my pride and joy, just like the other pets I've had since I was young!! Currently, I do work full to part time, but willing to adjust my schedule to fit your needs. My schedule is very flexible in the afternoon, evenings and weekends. In my home, the cat has free reign of the house. The dogs are crated when we are not able to be home and at night. My previous dogs may have had full reign, but right now my senior and young dogs cannot be trusted. When I visit someone's home, it is my priority to take care of your pet like you would if you were home!
“I have a broken foot and cannot walk my senior dog Dusty. I was leery to hire someone I didn't know. Mark was amazing with Dusty !. He got right down on the floor to greet and play with him. He even coaxed Dusty to take a longer walk. I highly recommend him for his positive and eager approach to dogs.”

I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet(s), building a special bond and friendship with everyone involved. I strive to be a dependable person and always aim to provide my best support to others. Hope to hear back from you soon, thank you for your time! I usually have an open schedule and I’m always happy to help however and whenever. I’m usually at home with my own animals anyways so I’m always down for more fuzzy cuddles! I treat each and every animal as if they were my own (and I spoil my pets like crazy)! I follow the instructions of each family down to a T if that’s what needs to be done and if there is any room for my own input or festivities, I always try to make it more fun or loving or easier for everyone involved. Pets have emotion and feelings just as much as babies do, so if you’re going to care for any animal, treat it as if you’re raising a baby, something precious and sweet, because that’s what they are.

I will respect and properly care for your home environment.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for about 6 years including mine, my sisters, my moms and my grandmas.

When I am taking care of your pet I will make sure they get everything they need and will make sure when you come back they are happier than ever! I have a pool in my backyard so if your dog likes to swim I will gladly have them over to take a break from the heat. I will also take them to dog parks and public parks so they can let energy out and see new stuff. I do have a full time job but it is mainly nights so I will be able to care for your pets in the morning and after I get off I am typically at work for max 5 hours so they wont have to be alone for majority of the day. I have a fenced in yard with a pool incase your dog likes to swim. I do have 2 other dogs that are really hyper but I can always separate them if I see an issue might occur.

About: Hi! My name is Jayden and my Partner Lisa and I are excited to care for your pup like they’re part of our family. Lisa works from home and I work a hybrid schedule, so there will almost always be someone home with your dog to give them attention, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day. I also have 2-year-old twins who absolutely love dogs and are used to being around them. We always make sure interactions are gentle, safe, and fun for everyone. We have a 1-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Redford who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around to play with. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we live in a great neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Your pup will get at least two long walks every day, plus as many potty breaks as they need. We love getting outside and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with us! I am completely free on the weekends. Happy to do drop in visits or walks. I am also free during the evenings and during lunch hours on Wednesday and Friday. Let me know what schedule will work well for your pet. I will treat your pets like they are my own. I will make sure to give them the love and attention that they need and carefully look over your instructions to make sure they are properly cared for.
“Natasha is my go-to for my dog walking needs! She is flexible and works with me and my crazy schedule, and best of all my doggo loves her. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sends me during her visits - it’s a relief to me during a long day at work to know that I don’t have to worry about my pup.”
About: Hello Hello Hello! My name is Rue. I am an office dweller with an affinity for dogs. My crew consists of an 8-year-old bully who, like his mother, is a lover of dogs of all sizes and ages. My muffin, a 5-year-old patterdale terrier, who has never met a mouse she couldn’t catch. Lastly, My Pup, a 9-month old shepherd mix who hates to see me relaxing lol. Professionally, I have worked with Animals on and off since my undergrad days. I started out years ago working as a kennel hand at a shelter while home from college on summer break. After that I just couldn’t let it go. More recently, I was employed as a dog walker for a pet care company in Chicago where I also cared for cats and rabbits. After that, I became a certified explosive detection K9 handler. Since then, I have worked in City run animal Shelters caring for all types of animals. I am the person who shows up at the party and ends up hanging out with the dog. In case you were wondering, I also have experience administering meds and vaccinations. I am experienced in all avenues of pet care, especially fun! Whether you have a laid-back baby who enjoys a slow scenic walk or a super charged machine who has some pep in its step, your pet will be well taken care of and will return home ready for a nap. Im currently working full time and making a career transition to dog training. I will be walking dogs mostly in the evenings during the week and all day on the weekends! I treat all pets as if they were my own. They are living creatures who deserve respect. I always lead with that sentiment when handling any animal. With that being said, I don't let my personal beliefs get in the way of the services I am rendering. The client's wishes come first when handling their pet. Tool usage, feeding schedules, etc will all be at the guidance of the client.
About: Hi I am Cindie, I am mom to two rescued girls that I have adopted, one is a Yorkie and the other is a" Morkie" which is a Maltese Yorkie mix, they are both under the age of 11 and are very lovable and easy-going and love to be around other dogs, they would love to share their large back yard with you! It is completely fenced in and gated with lots of lush grass to run and play in.

Inside of the house is very comfortable also, we are allowed on the furniture, we have lots of toys to play with and we get special treats like carrots and chicken when we are good ! Our mom has lots of experience taking care of dogs, we didn't get to know our older "sister " Buffy,...because she crossed over the "Rainbow Bridge" before we were adopted, but every night the lights shine on her "Memorial Tree" in our backyard where she is "sleeping",.. Wayback in the day, Dr. Dillon at Saint Francis Veterinary Hospital took on Buffy when she was having problems getting the rest of her large litter of nine puppies delivered, She was One of Dr. Dillon's very first patients about 20 years ago, and so you see our big sister "Buffy" is like a local celebrity because she helped Dr. Dillon get his start in Veterinarian Surgery...Wow!

“Jayden and his wife Lisa are amazing dog sitters. I left my dog Buddy with them over two weeks while flying outside of the country. They we're very flexible and attentive to all of my requests, and promptly communicated any changes with him while in their care. Buddy and their dog Redford became fast friends and Buddy quite clearly loved spending time with their kids, making a bed out of their trampoline. It was so nice to get updates and see just how much fun they had with him. Buddy says hi and thanks again!”

I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”

“I can't recommend Paige enough as a dog watcher! She took exceptional care of my two dogs for a week, and I could tell they were in great hands from the moment I met her. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and loving, which gave me peace of mind during my time away. She kept me updated with daily photos and texts, showing me how my dogs were doing and even sharing some funny moments. She took the time to learn their routines, ensuring they felt comfortable and at ease. Both dogs were happy and healthy when I returned, and it was clear they had enjoyed their time with her.”
“Kristin took great care of my doggy. She updated me regularly and I didn’t feel worried at all while I was away. Her dog Nala was so sweet to Brew and they seemed to have a great time together. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I have had a dog in my home for as long as I can remember. I love caring for, playing with, and doing basic training with dogs of all kinds. I'm comfortable and confident to care for my own as well as other's. I'm happy to walk, play with outdoors, bathe, do basic training, and administer medication if needed. I currently stay home with my two young children. We leave the home once our twice a week for errands or activities. This leaves us home and available to care for and play with pups all day or for the majority of the day. We're in a slow season of life, so we're also available on the weekends in most cases. I have a large property for dogs to run and play. For those who need fencing, I am able to offer that as well or am able to take dogs out on the leash. Willing and and to crate dogs. We have two dogs of our own, they are livestock guardians and spend most of their time outside, but they are an integral part of our family and have been decently socialized with other dogs.
“Walker is a bit needy, but Maria & Augustin met all of those needs and took great care of him! They were very communicative and kept me updated with everything over the 4 days they had him. Walker seemed to really like them, and he didn't want to come home at first. I'm very happy with how the stay went.”
“Nicole and her family were wonderful!! They took great care of my Pointer Stella and she had a good experience. They sent me pictures of Stella with Nicole’s family and her friendly pets. I would most definitely recommend her to any of my friends or whoever reads this! I will definitely be bringing Stella back for more visits!”
