Highly-rated overnight sitters - Norton
“Aimee did an incredible job taking care of my dog! From the meet-and-greet we knew it would be a great match, but she sent lots of photos and gave my dog so much love I didn’t worry for a second while I was on vacation for a week. I’m looking forward to my next trip so my dog can go back and see Aimee and her family again!”
“My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!”
“Jessica kept our dog Leif while we were on vacation and made him so comfortable. She was very responsive and sent us regular updates with pictures and videos to make us feel comfortable! She also did drop in visits with our cats and was great to work with.”
“Wonderful experience boarding with Jenna! Lovely fenced yard, lots of love provided, and payed careful attention to my pups’ needs. Very friendly yet professional setting. Would reboard again without reservation!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I can remember. Started with having my own pets as a child and raising orphan wildlife, then moving on to a carrier in veterinary. I’ve been working as licensed veterinary technician since 2009 and going strong. I still work part time at a clinic but spending more time at home now to raise my family. I am very comfortable with medical needs, including injections, and hold a special place in my heart for the elderly pets. I do still work part time at a vet clinic, but half days so your kiddos wouldn’t be going long periods without potty breaks and attention. I have a large fenced in yard that has direct access from the walkout basement where boarding pets stay. Your kiddo will be treated as one of the family, playing out in the yard and a lot of Netflix and chill on the couch. While I do have 2 dogs of my own, they will be kept separated from any boarding pets. We are surrounded by woods and wildlife so rabies vaccine and flea/tick prevention is a requirement to stay in our home.
“Nathan & Jenna are amazing hosts. Kora was not over excited during her stay but is missing her host & friends when back home. Nathan was sharing frequent videos for Kora daily and also, picked/dropped her off.”
“Kathleen and Nathan took excellent care of our dog. We were passing through the area on our way home from the east coast and needed a place for Dilly to get some exercise and play before we continued our trip. Dilly enjoyed playing in their large, fenced yard and had fun playing with their kids. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Dilly was happy and relaxed and ready to go the next day.”
“Absolutely love Anita! Her joy is so contagious 💛 I always relax knowing my doggy is taken sooooo well care of by her & her family!! Always a perfect stay!!! Thanks as usual 😃😃😃”
“Sydney and her boyfriend completely spoiled my dog with attention during his stay! I loved receiving all of the pictures and updates, he looked like he was right at home with them. We are so glad we found her and are looking forward to using her again in the future!”
“Amazing! Jenna did an amazing job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She has great communication and sent a lot of pictures each day. Our dog loved her! We felt very comfortable the entire week and will definitely book her again.”
“Absolutely amazing, very friendly and amazing with our 2 dogs. She stepped in when a different rover provider could no longer care for our dogs during our vacation. Elysia sent us many pictures and videos and kept us up to date, putting our mind at ease. We highly recommend her and will be booking again!”
“Our baby Buddy is our family. He's our son. We rarely leave him with anyone, but I need you to know that Sarah did an amazing job. She made us feel comfortable, she communicated with us sent photos, videos of our furry love one. She put our mind at ease. Kept us updated on his activities. Job well done. Sarah is a very kind-hearted person. I would definitely utilize her services again and again.”
“Heather and Daniel treat my Ronnie like a part of the family. Ron is not always the easiest dog to care for, but Ron loves them and I really appreciate their care of him. They send me pictures every day and I always know Ron is safe and happy. Thank you!”
“Second time using Gail and she does a great job keeping us updated. You can tell she loves dogs! She watched our 10 yr old Pomchi for a second time and our 1 yr old Golden Retriever. We are already booking her again for next year’s summer vacation. Highly recommend!”
“I felt Savanna took good care of Felipe. He loves everyone and he is a good dog and that showed when he was with Savanna and her family. Yes I would have him stay with her again. He was taken in his morning walks and they shared videos. Nice home and family. Thank you guys”
“Gabrielle (and Greta!) went above and beyond in helping me and my dog this week! I am extremely grateful for everything and so impressed by her passion for taking excellent care of animals! 🤍”
“Cassie kept me informed about how Rocky was doing at least once a day while we were away. She sent me pictures that showed he was truly enjoying his time with her & her family. My heart was full knowing he was safe and loved while we traveled. Our boy can be very needy, so for him to actually be loved on & not just thrown in a cage for the majority of the time, means a lot to us. He got to play all weekend with her dogs as well, which I know he really enjoyed. We appreciate everything Cassie did for Rocky and we look forward to using her again for any future travel needs! 🥰”
“Danielle was easy to work with and set our minds at ease about leaving our newly adopted, very high energy, 7 month old puppy. Our original sitter plans fell through 2 weeks before our trip and we had never used Rover before, so we were a little nervous. Danielle allowed us to come over to her house to do a Meet and Greet before our trip and upon meeting her and her kids, we knew Bodhi would be in good hands. Bodhi took quickly to Danielle's son and we loved getting texts while we were on our trip about how he and Bodhi were cuddling on the couch watching a movie or that they were outside running around the backyard. We are so greatful for Danielle and her kids for welcoming Bodhi into their home and family for the week while we were away for a conference and would totally trust to leave Bodhi in their care again! Thank you Danielle!”

“It was wonderful having Ashley take care of my cat! My cat can sometimes be shy around strangers but it seemed like she warmed up to Ashley right away! I also appreciated Ashley’s prompt check-ins and notes for each visit”
About: 🐶I’ve taken care of our Family Rottweiler, Mini Schanuzer and Elderly Shitzu mix. I’ve also had my Chihuahua since I was a teenager. With that being said, I am very experienced with dogs of any size from pup to senior 🐕🦺. I work from home which makes it easier to spend time with the pups as well as keep a close eye on them. This is extremely convenient if your fur baby has separation anxiety! I have a fenced in yard and two Fur babies to keep your Pup company during their stay! I’ve also got a large crate if needed.
“Keerie was amazing!! Took care of my babies while I'm gone due to a family emergency. She was very friendly and personable. Always keeping a positive attitude. I would 100% recommend her and would book her again if I need to. Thank you Keerie!”
“Laura took amazing care of our two cats while we were away! She was in communication at each visit, sending pictures and updates to keep us in the loop! When we got home, our cats seemed happy and content, and everything was clearly well taken care of. We really appreciated her taking such good care our boys, and would definitely book again in the future!”
“Zoey was wonderful, both my cats warmed right up to her even my shy boy! She was super communicative and did a great job with my cats I will definitely rebook with her and would absolutely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Taylor was so great with my Cleo! She was available on short notice and was willing to meet us prior to going away for a few days. I was really worried how Cleo would react, he is an older dog and protective, but she handled him so very well! Thank so much Taylor! I will be reaching out again!”
“Chrystal was amazing. Super short notice and on a holiday she was available with no issues. One of my cats can be more than a little spicy with strangers but had no problem with Chrystal. 10/10 would recommend and will be using again for sure.”
“Angela was extremely attentive and showed up on time every day, made sure that Luna got her meds, everything was clean, and sent daily updates. She contacted us the moment she noticed something seemed wrong (deeply appreciated!), and the cats absolutely adored her. will absolutely be recommending her services and hopefully booking with her again if we ever need another sitter. 💜”
“Brianne has been awesome! I was able to stay in touch with her, which was super important to me! She has been in contact with me each day throughout my trip (including adorable pictures!) and I felt so much better knowing someone caring was visiting with my 3 cats over the past week. I will be using her services again when I need to go out of town. Brianne is great :)”
“To simply describe Sydney as AMAZING is not enough. Not only is she excellent at communicating (even when I might take a bit of time to respond), her love and care for my cats are phenomenal. My shy cat took to her so quickly that I’m sure if given the choice, he would not mind going home with her 😆. The picture and video updates I got put me at extreme ease while I was traveling, knowing that my cats and my place were in great hands. I would not even hesitate a single second about recommending her for pet sitting. 1000% would be asking her to care for my boys again in the future.”
“Rebekah was great. We had some problems with our electric locks so she had to go to our our house twice the first day. She worked through the issue with us. Sent great pics and updates for every drop in. We knew the cats were being well taken care of. We will ask for her help again in the future.”
“Really appreciate Pat helping us on short notice! She was fantastic with our rather timid and shy cat. Pat allowed our Bella to set the pace for interaction. Very attentive and took such good care with her. She even brought in an unexpected package. Very warm and caring lady. Will definitely use her services again.”
About: Growing up my family had two litters of old english sheepdogs. I had no say in breeding but I did get to take care of all of the puppies when we had them, up until they were adopted. As well as 3 grown sheepdogs. Our family owned three horses previously that I grew up around. I have had two cats also and now my Husky boys. Which I call my babies because they are. I have a pretty flexible schedule and work from home so I’m available whenever needed. Flexibility gives me the time I need to spend with your fur baby. Pets are family too. I would treat them with great care and follow any instructions provided. I can go on walks, play, have set feeding schedules, whatever is needed. I also love taking photos so sending them to clients would be a must. I want to keep everyone updated on their fur baby's experience with me.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Norton
“So good with Maple's puppy energy, her home is so dog-friendly with an amazing back yard for safe wandering and playing. So grateful my puppy can have a great time with her new friends at Kathy's home while I am working!”
“It was our first time leaving our boy with someone other than family and they made us feel really comfortable. We knew when we left he was in good hands. They sent us pics/videos showing how comfortable he was. Definitely will go back. Thank you!”
“Wonderful sitter and her dogs are lovely. I have a teeny toy poodle and he is Captains little buddy. Captain is such a sweety and begs for you to let him play with your pups. My dog gets excited every time he sees Marie when we pull up on her drive way. Will repeatedly take my dog to her house for playdates and needed dog sitting. She is also very accommodating and flexible with bad schedules!”
“This is the best puppy sitter EVER! She is truly an animal lover and goes above and beyond for my puppy. I can go to work with the peace of mind that my puppy is being well cared for. She provides plenty of videos and photos as well as plenty of potty breaks and tome outside. My puppy gets so excited when I drop him of for doggy daycare. Jenna is truly a blessing.”
“Pat was amazing with our dog Lucy. Our daycare had to go over until the morning due to getting home super late and she was very accommodating. Lucy had a blast playing with a new friend! We will definitely be back. Thank you!”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of various kinds of animals, dogs and cats . I Will respect your love for your animal that you’ve trusted me with. I am Retired, enjoy walking so why not walk a dog? I’m very responsible, and if I say I’ll be there to care for your dog, I will be there. I live in a great neighbourhood with sidewalks. I have no problem taking a dog on a leash to a nearby park. I ALWAYS pick up after dog.
About: Hi! I’m Corey — a pet-loving guy who truly understands how deeply animals become family. I’ve spent the last 15 years caring for dogs, including two beloved seniors who recently passed in 2021 and 2025. Betty, an English Bulldog who was “thicker than a bowl of oatmeal,” and Sadie, my blue-tick coonhound/beagle mix who was a true treat connoisseur with a heart of gold. Losing them has been incredibly hard… but also a powerful reminder of just how special the bond with a pet really is. Caring for other people’s pets has become a form of healing and therapy for me. I miss the snoring, the wagging tails, the playtime, and the pure happiness a dog brings into a home. Being around animals fills me with joy, and I pour that love right back into the pups I watch. I have hands-on experience with: • Senior dog care (medications, patience, mobility support, and gentle comfort) • High-energy dogs who need walks and structured play • Bulldogs, hounds, and every personality in between • Smaller breeds like Chihuahuas and Dachshunds Your dog isn’t just a “dog” to me — they’re family, someone’s whole heart. And while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same gentleness, humor, consistency, and affection that I gave to Betty and Sadie. I work from home and can provide exceptional care! Your dog is my main concern during the day and evening and will be spoiled and loved! I will treat your pet as my own and follow all instructions provided to me about your dog(s) routine and schedule. I truly care and want to make your experience easy and stress free.
About: All K9 Solutions is fully insured and licensed here in Akron OH. I've been training dogs for 6 years and professionally for 4 years. After I worked for reputable training companies, one here in Akron area as the head trainer, I decided to open my own company called All K9 Solutions. I grew up with dogs, and have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks as I used to manage a farm as well. I personally network all over the US with other dog trainers. One of my recent travels has been to Kansas to help host a working dog workshop with a few small departments. I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 3 years old and does many sports (PSA, AKC sports, and has been dabbling in odor work), and my oldest is 10, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information to learn and dogs aren’t cookie cutter. I’m also an STSK9 MVP student for advanced obedience. I’m very passionate about teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how their psychology works. My business hours run from 7am-10pm. My availability is open from the afternoon to night time, this way all morning routines are completed, walks, potty breaks, feeding, training sessions etc. All dogs are boarded in a home environment instead of a facility. This way your dogs aren’t as stressed being away from you, and they can comfortably enjoy their vacation too. All dogs are kenneled to ensure safety (not investing anything they shouldn’t, no free roam 24/7 with other client’s dogs you don’t know, and they have their own space to decompress). Since the yard isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar with a longline when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more mental and physical stimulation for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she follows the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. Better safe than sorry. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare. Safety precautions are always taken. For the well being of the dogs and myself. Please note that I do require all important behaviors are made aware of by the owners before hand and I will notify owners upon any concern of sickness or bite risks. I send updates each day as well or will add photos to your rover card.
About: My rover is always up and always being monitored. I have had a few people reach out to me through this app and we have had wonderful experiences! I know how hard it can be to leave a family member with a stranger! So reach out to me, let’s meet up and make sure that this will be a good fit! My boarding and sitting fees are reflective of the level of care your animal will receive in my care. I treat all animals as my own, allow them regular potty breaks, and take them for walks to expend their energy. My reviews speak for themself! Let me help you keep your animal safe and tended to while you rest, vacation, or attend to business! I live on my own, with only one cat as a pet. I have a two bedroom house with space on the higher level and then an open basement! I’m sure my space can accommodate your fur baby! Send me a message! Let’s see if we can figure this out together. I work from home most days so my schedule is usually wide open to take dogs out to the bathroom during the day and then extra exercise during the evenings. My home is in a quiet neighborhood filled with other lovely dogs. My cat is very nonchalant and typically minds his own business. Additionally, my daughter is only with me half time so that usually won’t pose any issues.
About: I have 2 decades of experience working around, spending time with, and caring for animals of all kind. Special skills include playing fetch and scratches! I work from home full time and have the means and the space to provide a safe and open area for your fluff bug to enjoy while you take care of business. I am openly available to care for and spoil pets. With almost an acre of fenced area, your fur babies are sure to be safe and sound in my territory. I have the means to keep a crate or two.
“Sarah was incredibly thorough and made sure that my dog felt comfortable in a new space! Thank you so much for your time and giving Lou Lou an incredibly fun experience.”
“Holly was able to accommodate my very last minute booking request and I am so thankful! She took Lucy for a few walks throughout the day and I could tell that Lucy was well taken care of. Thank you again, I really appreciate it!!”
“Excellent service. Zach and his daughter were great with my dog Rex! Great setup with a tall fence and Rex loved playing with their dogs.This was a same day booking and they were able to accommodate us last minute and also the following day. I had only left my dog one day at a kennel his whole life so was nervous and within minutes knew I had made the correct choice with Zach and his home!”
“Brittany was great with Bruno and super communicative throughout the day. She was flexible for a last minute booking and kind and we felt totally comfortable leaving our dog there. Would absolutely book again!”
“Catherine and Sean are very accommodating with sudden changes in my schedule. She sends regular updates and pictures about how my puppy is doing. She ensures my pup is mentally and physically stimulated. Weretlucky to use their services!”
About: I have two dogs of my own. Both are very friendly and get along with other dogs. They have been to the dog park multiple times. I am home most weekends, evenings, and throughout the day on weekdays. I will treat your dogs like my own. I have flexible rates if you need me to watch more than 1 of your dogs. I have flexible rates if you need them watched for an extended amount of time. I have a son who has been raised with dogs since birth so he will treat them well and is not afraid of dogs at all. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to helping care for your fur baby. I am available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I also have flexibility to leave work for an extended lunch. I have the flexibility needed to care for your pets. I have friendly pets who are used to other animals. I am happy to accommodate your pets schedule and make this as smooth as possible.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. Over the past 15 years I've become quite fond of special needs and rescue pups. I have 3 awesome dogs and a cat that have chosen us to be there family. I know how terrifying it can be to leave your fur babies with a sitter but I can promise they will be happy and comfortable with me. So if you're like my family and need someone you can trust with your pets we are here to help. We do have 3 kiddos that love the animals too. We are all very pet friendly and we all work together to take care of our fur friends and make sure they are happy and feel loved all the time!
About: I’ve always had a pet in my 18 years on thiis planet mainly dogs ranging from a Yorkie to a Pitbull. Current doggos I have is a super mutt, Jaspurr and a purebred Husky, Tucker. Pet care for me fits in on a daily basis and has turned into a wonderful part of my routine in the mornings and before bed, starting and ending the day with a good note with the fur babies. I am willing to travel to my clients home and care for their dog there, dogs can get stressed out by relocating especially when their human is away, me traveling to their house is overall better in my option for the dog.
About: I’ve had a family cat and dog since I was young to take care of, and recently got my own cat. I love having, and caring for animals. They are so enjoyable to have around and play with. I currently am a college student, with a few classes a week, other than that my schedule is very open and easy to work with. Currently can not hold animals where I stay, but I can do all that is needed and asked when taking care of your pets. Like walking, playing, feeding, and any other things requested. Very open and understanding to what is necessary.
About: Since I was young, I’ve always had a pet. After college I finally got a pet of my own and they’ve just multiplied over the years! Dogs are my specialty - I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family & I’ve trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. I’d say what sets me apart from others is that I have plenty of time in the afternoons (and any time during the weekend) to take care of your pup because my job ends early in the day unlike a 9-5 job. I have years of experience under my belt and I just really love animals. Always have and always will! As a teacher, I am always home early on the weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time every afternoon to play with & walk your dog! I am available any time on the weekends and I can board Fri-Sun. My husband and I have a big fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! We are firm believers in lots of walks, lots of playtime, and positive reinforcement. If needed, we can provide a crate as a safe space for your dog to lounge in. Our dogs are our children and we will treat your dog with the same love as we treat our own :)
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, growing up with both dogs and cats and learning to care for them from a young age. As an adult, I’ve had two cats, including one who lived to the incredible age of 21, which gave me extensive experience with long-term and senior pet care. I currently share my home with our 6-year-old Papillon, who is a cherished member of our family. As a mom of two, I understand how important it is to trust that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for when you’re away. I would love the opportunity to provide that same peace of mind to other pet parents. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a pet owner myself, I’m already used to feeding, cleaning, and spending quality time with animals each day. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to plan my day around visits, whether that means morning, midday. I’m consistent and dependable, and I make it a priority to give each pet the attention, care, and companionship they need while their owner is away. When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep them comfortable by sticking closely to their usual routine. I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning or potty breaks, and plenty of attention and playtime based on what your pet enjoys. For dogs, I offer safe, engaging walks suited to their pace and personality. I treat every home with respect and always follow your instructions carefully, and I’m happy to send updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands.
About: Hi! I’m Mazi. After working in dog boarding facilities, I realized that while the dogs were well cared for, many of them were missing the one-on-one attention, exercise, and companionship they truly deserved. That inspired me to focus on pet sitting so I can give every pet the individualized care they need to feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I have hands-on experience working in dog boarding facilities, where I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, monitored their health and behavior, administered medications, and made sure they were comfortable and safe. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own routine and unique needs. My background has also given me the skill to match each dog’s breed and temperament with the right way to help them safely and effectively get their energy out I’m currently in college pursuing my undergraduate degree with plans to attend veterinary school, so animal health and welfare are something I’m incredibly passionate about. I also volunteer with animal shelters, participate in dog day outings, and love advocating for rescue animals whenever I can. When you book with me, your pet won’t just be another appointment on my schedule, they’ll be treated like one of my own. I’ll provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, updates, and personalized care so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I am lucky enough to have a completely open schedule. That being said I make my plans around the commitments I made towards pet parents to make sure that each pet gets the care they need on time every time. All of my energy goes into keeping your pet safe. I treat them as if they are my own baby. All of my attention and focus is on your pet.
About: I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life and now have my own golden retriever(she is very sweet and well trained). I am home most hours of the days and have all the the time to give your pets their needs and attention! My job I’m working now I am fully in charge of my schedule. I choose when I want to go in the day off. I only work 4 hours 2 or 3 times a week. I have a big house and a big fenced yard. In my family I have two very friendly dogs that are well trained and one cat. I have a gate in front of my room to let my cat be alone and feel safe from the dogs.
About: I’ve been trusted with caring for cats and dogs since I was old enough to take on the responsibility!

About: Hi! I’m Erin, an Ohio State graduate with over 10 years of pet sitting experience, specializing in dog/cat care. I offer both drop-in visits and overnight stays, with a big focus on making sure your pet stays in their normal routine. I’m confident handling different sizes, temperaments, and leash behaviors, and always prioritize safety and consistency. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring. I’m very detail-oriented and tuned in to behavior, so I pick up quickly on what makes each dog comfortable. I keep communication clear and consistent with updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I also keep things clean, calm, and organized in your home during visits or overnight stays. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have two cats of my own, so I truly understand the trust that goes into leaving your pet with someone. With years of building my long term clientele, I can assure you your pets will be treated like my own everytime! My goal is to make your dog or cat feel secure, cared for, and as close to their normal routine as possible while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone reliable who goes beyond the basics, I’d love to connect and meet your pets:) I have dedicated my days and weekends to providing loving care for animals! I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet sitting a priority in my day to day life. Most of my experience has been pet sitting in the owners home or drop ins! I provide overnight services as well. Since I have 2 cats of my own, I would allow dogs to stay at my home if they have experience being around cats. I am dedicated to making each animal feel as comfortable as possible and making sure they feel loved while you are away.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I couldn’t imagine a life without either. Animals bring me joy just like I’m sure they do you. I’ve been a volunteer at many shelters. I’d be honored to take care of your babies and give them the love they deserve while you’re gone. I would happily cat sit, dog sit, walk your dog, feed your pets and anything in between! 🐶🐱🤍 I currently have open availability any and every day to help you and your pets out! Let me know when and where and I’ll be there:) I live in a very spacious apartment that is pet friendly. I have a dog park on site. Plenty of room to walk the dog. I have an extra crate here if needed. We do have a cat but can easily place him in his room if needed to keep them separate. If I'm at your place, you let me know what needs to be done and how and it will get done however needed!
“Finn gets so much joy when his friend Cassie comes! All I have to say is ‘guess who is here’ before she rings the bell and he runs to the front door, with his most excited barking and greets her with so much enthusiasm! And she gets more kisses from him than I do!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”
About: Life long animal lover, I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, fresh water aquariums and hamsters. It delights me to give other pet owners peace of mind while they are away from their furry, feathery or even scaley family members by providing care, companionship and security. I offer customized pricing, message me to select a service level that best suits your needs. Pet care is my main schedule priority, I also work as a wellness counselor part time but generally have a lot flexibility in my schedule as I mainly operate remotely for that and I am happy to work with you and your furbabies schedule needs. I do not currently offer care within my own home due to limited space but I am very happy to care for your pets within your own home or by taking them to a trail or park where they can be their happiest and most comfortable. It's important to me to ensure animals stick to their routines to ensure the least amount of stress while owners are away so the more detailed care instructions provided the better, I'm not afraid to adust my personal schedule to best fit the needs of any pet!
About: I have 6 years of active dog training and boarding. With over 300 dogs under my belt, I've seen all kinds of temperaments and breeds! I am confident in my dog handling abilities, and have experience with puppies, seniors, and handicapped dogs. I am self employed, so I have plenty of flexibility to accommodate some dog care! Weekends are my favorite days to make appointments. And I have reliable transportation! Respect is paramount. I will do my best to both 1) feel comfortable around your pet (which is important!) and 2) respect your home and belongings.

“Jessica kept our dog Leif while we were on vacation and made him so comfortable. She was very responsive and sent us regular updates with pictures and videos to make us feel comfortable! She also did drop in visits with our cats and was great to work with.”
“Wonderful experience boarding with Jenna! Lovely fenced yard, lots of love provided, and payed careful attention to my pups’ needs. Very friendly yet professional setting. Would reboard again without reservation!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I can remember. Started with having my own pets as a child and raising orphan wildlife, then moving on to a carrier in veterinary. I’ve been working as licensed veterinary technician since 2009 and going strong. I still work part time at a clinic but spending more time at home now to raise my family. I am very comfortable with medical needs, including injections, and hold a special place in my heart for the elderly pets. I do still work part time at a vet clinic, but half days so your kiddos wouldn’t be going long periods without potty breaks and attention. I have a large fenced in yard that has direct access from the walkout basement where boarding pets stay. Your kiddo will be treated as one of the family, playing out in the yard and a lot of Netflix and chill on the couch. While I do have 2 dogs of my own, they will be kept separated from any boarding pets. We are surrounded by woods and wildlife so rabies vaccine and flea/tick prevention is a requirement to stay in our home.
“Nathan & Jenna are amazing hosts. Kora was not over excited during her stay but is missing her host & friends when back home. Nathan was sharing frequent videos for Kora daily and also, picked/dropped her off.”
“Sydney and her boyfriend completely spoiled my dog with attention during his stay! I loved receiving all of the pictures and updates, he looked like he was right at home with them. We are so glad we found her and are looking forward to using her again in the future!”
“Absolutely amazing, very friendly and amazing with our 2 dogs. She stepped in when a different rover provider could no longer care for our dogs during our vacation. Elysia sent us many pictures and videos and kept us up to date, putting our mind at ease. We highly recommend her and will be booking again!”
“Our baby Buddy is our family. He's our son. We rarely leave him with anyone, but I need you to know that Sarah did an amazing job. She made us feel comfortable, she communicated with us sent photos, videos of our furry love one. She put our mind at ease. Kept us updated on his activities. Job well done. Sarah is a very kind-hearted person. I would definitely utilize her services again and again.”
“Heather and Daniel treat my Ronnie like a part of the family. Ron is not always the easiest dog to care for, but Ron loves them and I really appreciate their care of him. They send me pictures every day and I always know Ron is safe and happy. Thank you!”
“Second time using Gail and she does a great job keeping us updated. You can tell she loves dogs! She watched our 10 yr old Pomchi for a second time and our 1 yr old Golden Retriever. We are already booking her again for next year’s summer vacation. Highly recommend!”
“I felt Savanna took good care of Felipe. He loves everyone and he is a good dog and that showed when he was with Savanna and her family. Yes I would have him stay with her again. He was taken in his morning walks and they shared videos. Nice home and family. Thank you guys”
“Cassie kept me informed about how Rocky was doing at least once a day while we were away. She sent me pictures that showed he was truly enjoying his time with her & her family. My heart was full knowing he was safe and loved while we traveled. Our boy can be very needy, so for him to actually be loved on & not just thrown in a cage for the majority of the time, means a lot to us. He got to play all weekend with her dogs as well, which I know he really enjoyed. We appreciate everything Cassie did for Rocky and we look forward to using her again for any future travel needs! 🥰”
“Vicki is beyond amazing as a dog sitter. My lab has so much energy and the day he came home after a week with Vicki and her other dogs, he did nothing but sleep! While at the sitters he took great advantage of the dog friendly swimming pool and large yard. Vicki sent me pictures everyday and let me know what adventures my dog was experiencing. I highly recommend Vicki - she loves dogs!!! We will be a repeat customer ?”
“Lindsay was an amazing sitter for my baby Theodore. She was attentive, patient, sweet, and also gives updates on how he was doing the whole time. I got daily pictures of him and it made me really happy. I will book her again and again. Highly recommend.”

“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”
“I was a little nervous to leave my dog with a stranger but Corey proved to be a kind and considerate person who truely likes dogs. I liked the fact that he was calm and helpful with my "thinks she's a princess" little dog. Communication was great and he has floors without rugs. I will definitely ask for him again.”
“Kate was an amazing sitter! She made the entire process seamless, providing regular updates and adorable pictures of our dog. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Dayne, and I’m a 22 year old college football player with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, and spending time with them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have a German Shepherd and a Beagle, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I actually trained my German Shepherd myself from the time he was a puppy, and seeing him grow into such a well behaved, obedient dog has been incredibly rewarding. That experience taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and understanding how every dog learns a little differently. Being a college athlete has also taught me the importance of being dependable, responsible, and sticking to a routine. Those are qualities I bring with me whenever I’m taking care of someone else’s pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just keeping your dog company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re getting the attention and care they deserve. I also have experience with more than just dogs. I grew up with an Umbrella Cockatoo that’s still part of my family’s life today, so I’m familiar with caring for birds. I also own a Bearded Dragon, which has given me experience caring for reptiles as well. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful because they’re family. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and always follow your care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m a college football player, so all of my athletic commitments are done in the mornings. I also take all of my classes online, which gives me the rest of the day to fully focus on the dogs in my care. My schedule is very structured, and I’m home the majority of the day outside of morning workouts. My own dogs are properly exercised every single day. We go to the dog park, on long walks, and even hikes when the weather is nice. I make sure they are well run and mentally stimulated so they’re balanced and happy. They are fed twice a day with high quality dog food, and I stay consistent with their health needs. My German Shepherd gets joint supplements, and both my Shepherd and Beagle get salmon oil daily. I take their care seriously, and I would treat your dog the exact same way. Being an athlete, I’m already used to routine, discipline, and responsibility. That carries over into how I care for animals. Your dog won’t just be “watched” they’ll be exercised, cared for, and paid attention to. I live in a 1600 square foot home with plenty of space for dogs to move around comfortably. I have a large dog crate available if your dog is crate trained or needs their own quiet space. I also have two friendly, well socialized dogs who love to play and will keep your dog company. Safety is always my top priority. I’m experienced with large breeds and strong dogs, and I understand proper leash control, structure, and supervision. I keep a clean, organized home and always make sure dogs are monitored, comfortable, and secure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I don’t take that lightly.
