“Great couple to watch our pup. We wanted someone with a fenced in yard and other dogs to help socialize and tire our pup out and that’s exactly what we got. Our girl was happy to come back after the initial meet and greet and happy to book with them in the future.”

“First off I have always had my fears about boarding. I have always avoided going anywhere overnight but I had a little work trip come up and so I had to find somewhere for my Eska. I was very happy with Tiffany and her communication with me while she had my girl. I couldn't be happier with the care she gave my Eska. I now feel I can comfortably board in the future and feel she will be in good hands.”

“Stephanie was excellent!! We left our dog with her and I could not have asked for better care. He was very well taken care of and he absolutely loved Stephanie. I would leave my dog there In a heartbeat.”

“Miranda treated my baby very well, she even gave them swimming pools and sent very funny videos of my dog having a lot of fun, I would definitely hire her again for boarding services, her house is very clean and spacious, she has kittens but my dog is seem to get along very well with them, she was sending me photos and videos all the time, which I appreciate very much, the fact that she is a veterinarian definitely adds a plus, since she surely knows what is good for them, thank you Miranda!”

“I have 2 small, senior dogs with special diets and medicines three times daily. One can have a "grumpy old man" attitude. They had not stayed with anyone but family & friends in the 2 & 4 years I've had them. Rumi and her husband were absolutely wonderful with them (and with me ☺️)! They were very flexible with me when my drop off schedule kept changing. She sent me pictures, videos, updates. The dogs always looked content. She advised me at pick up of a lump they felt on one dog. I highly recommend and will be using again.”

“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 ?”

“Nicole was kind, accommodating , flexible, and our dog Peach really did well with her! We received many updates with photos which was so much fun and appreciated! We didn’t even have to ask for those updates either 😊”

“I have two high energy beagles and Kelly took them on. She was even smiling when I picked them up. She kept me updated and included pictures. I will definitely have Kelly watch the dogs again and I am so grateful she was so good to them.”

“I felt extremely comfortable leaving my sweet guy in your very capable hands. I loved the pictures and updates. I will certainly look forward to another stay in the future. Highly recommend!!”

“I would recommend melody to anyone. I felt comfortable leaving my Scooby Doo while going off on a weekend family trip. He had a good time. I would use her again in the future as well.”

“We are so happy that Kelsi was able to watch our dog while we travelled all the way to Alaska. We were a little hesitant going so far away, but we were confident leaving her in Kelsi's care. She had our phone numbers, our vet's name and number along with our Aunt's phone number in Ohio just in case. Kelsi sent us lots of pictures and updates. It looked like Bailey had a wonderful time and it eased our fears of being so far away. We highly recommend Kelsi and will be leaving our dog in her care whenever we need her.”

“We have been booking with Heather for our 5 animals for years now. Heather and her husband watch our 4 dogs and cat once a year for our vacation. I schedule my vacations around them now because I don’t trust anyone else with my kids. I love that they always send daily updates with pictures and let me know any concerns they have (my one dog is getting old and stiff. Heather’s husband told me that he was bumping into things and might be developing some eyesight issues). They are very attentive. One year my cat and one dog got into a tiff (as they do sometimes) and Heather immediately contacted me and told me about it and told me she separated them to cool down. I have a very nervous rescue that does not like anyone but I get pictures of her laying with Heather and her husband. I have only ever seen this dog hug my husband or I in the 3 years we have had her but she hugs them. This tells me all I need to know since Ivy doesn’t trust anyone. My dogs seem to feel comfortable when I leave them there and not panicked. My cat and older dog take medicine daily and Heather gets my stubborn cat to take her medicine with no problem. Your pets are safe with them.”

About: I've had cats since I was kid. I had a diabetic cats for about 10 years that I cared for which included a special diet and administering insulin twice per day and doing blood glucose readings. I currently have 3 cats that I own and care for.

“Shelby did two drop-in visits for me. My girls were happy to see her and she met their needs perfectly. So glad I found Shelby to take care of my girls when I am away for long periods of a day.”

About: Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud cat mom. ❤️ I currently have cats of my own, so I understand how much our cats mean to us and how important it is to know they’re safe, comfortable, and cared for when we can’t be there. I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ cats while they’ve been away on vacation, making sure they have everything they need and, just as importantly, some love and attention while their people are gone. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits tailored to your cat’s personality and routine. Whether your kitty is playful and social, independent and prefers their space, or needs a little extra patience to warm up to someone new, I’ll take the time to make them comfortable. During a visit, I can provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, cuddles and attention (if your cat wants them!), and plenty of TLC. I’ll also keep an eye out for anything unusual and let you know how your cat is doing after each visit. I know how much peace of mind it gives you to have someone you trust looking after your pets while you’re away. I’ll care for your cats as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for until you’re home. 🐾❤️ Because cats may not need a walk—but they definitely need a little love while you’re away! 🐱💕

“Absolutely wonderful! She was so kind and patient with our shy, older cat. Kept us informed and sent photos and detailed updates after each visit. Her care and attention put me at ease while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Kristi and will ask her to visit again when we travel.”

She was able to follow a detailed list of rules and responsibilities & my animals took to her very quickly which is especially unusual for my cat! Highly recommend 10/10!”

About: I have a pup of my own! I have worked at a boarding/daycare facility, feeding, letting out, and bathing dogs of all breeds and sizes, with the occasional cat, bunny, lizard, and even a parrot! I have also worked as a dog walker and sitter for a company in Kansas City, the best job i've ever had, but unfortunately had to move back home to Montana. My schedule included 30 minute walks, driving pups to dog parks and watching them play, staying overnight at clients' houses to care for their dogs (and sometimes cats) while they were away, and falling in love with all the pups that I was working with! I am currently available anytime I am needed! I'm very flexible and will be able to accommodate your requests, as I would like this to be a full time job!!

My pupdates usually include whether they went potty or not, some little anecdotes from our time together, and lots of cute emojis🐾

About: I have cared for my two cats for several years, so I understand the daily needs and routines that keep cats happy and healthy. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and providing a calm, loving environment. Last year, I helped save a stray cat and safely took it to the animal hospital, which shows I’m attentive and know how to handle unexpected situations. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I treat every pet like my own and am committed to making sure your cat feels safe and cared for while you’re away.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats every day. I recently raised my own puppy who’s now a happy, well-behaved 1-year-old, so I’m very comfortable with puppy routines, training basics, and high-energy pets. I also have a 5-year-old cat, giving me years of experience with feline behavior, feeding schedules, and creating a calm, safe environment for more independent pets. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and genuine love for animals. I understand the different needs of young, active pets as well as more mature ones, and I always treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. I work full time throughout the week as a dental hygienist, that makes after work a great time for dog walking! This also means pet sitting is strictly weekends so I can give your pet my full attention ! I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel comfortable. I stick closely to each pet’s routine—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I keep their space clean, cozy, and stress-free.
About: I have had animals my whole life, from dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, iguanas, and rabbits. I have lived with them, fed them and kept them clean. I am currently only working part time so I have tons of time to help these animals have some fun while their parents are away! I have a very large yard and live nearby to parks. I have a crate if needed and will be willing to accommodate whatever is needed.

“Just wonderful! Stephanie made us feel so comfortable leaving our new dog for the day! We are first time dog owners and our dog has separation anxiety so we were worried about leaving him with someone else for the first time. Stephanie is so kind and welcoming and VERY good with dogs! She sent us pictures and updates throughout the day so we knew our dog was having a good time and getting along with the other pups. We will be bringing him back soon!”

“Tiffany was amazing!! My dog gets a little nervous when left at daycares but Tiffany made him feel right at home. The updates showed that he was relaxed and happy right away. Not only did Tiffany do a great job in taking care of him, she was also one of the most communicative daycares I've come across. You can really tell how experienced she is and how much she loves animals”

About: Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly believes dogs are family. ❤️ While I’m new to professional dog walking, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a variety of situations. I’ve had dogs for many years, cared for my sister’s dogs, helped with the arrival of multiple litters of puppies, and have experience caring for senior dogs. I’ve also recently fostered dogs and regularly walk dogs at my local animal shelter, where I get to spend time with dogs of different personalities, ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. I especially have a soft spot for rescue dogs and love helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different. Some pups want an energetic adventure and lots of exploring, while others—including senior dogs—may need a slower pace, extra patience, or a little more TLC. I’m happy to meet your dog where they are and give them the individual attention they need. I genuinely love being outdoors, hiking, walking, and spending time in nature, so getting outside with a dog is something I truly enjoy—not just a job. My goal is for your dog to get exercise, attention, companionship, and plenty of love while you’re away. And I’m a cat lover, too! 🐱 I currently have cats of my own and would be happy to provide cat drop-in visits as well. Whether they need food, fresh water, a clean litter box, playtime, or simply some company and attention, I’m happy to help. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always come first. ❤️🐾 My work schedule changes from week to week, so I don’t have the same days off every week. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my available days and times, so what you see on my calendar reflects my current availability. If you have a specific date in mind that isn’t showing as available, feel free to message me and I’ll see what I can do! 🐶🐱❤️ Trust means everything when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home. I don’t take that trust lightly. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Safety always comes first. I’ll follow your instructions, stay attentive to your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and be mindful of their individual needs and surroundings. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your furry family members are doing while you’re away. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or stopping in to care for your cat, my goal is simple: keep them safe, happy, comfortable, and loved—and leave you with peace of mind. 🐶🐱❤️

About: I have a husky and gray cat in our home now. I specialize in safe, caring, clean and honest services. Puppies and senior animals welcome. I’m the sole provider and semi retired and like to keep active walking and caring for animals. My honesty, care and cleanliness set me apart from other caregivers you may consider I have a fenced yard for our husky and vacuum the house daily. He gets 1-3 long walks daily and I always pick up the poop and dispose of it correctly. Our cat rules the house and she gets lots of play time. We clean the litter box 2-3 times weekly and feed her dry and wet food.
About: Growing up, we always had multiple dogs that were my responsibility to care for, and I loved every moment of it! I have spent the last several years helping my family and friends with watching, caring for, and walking their dogs when need - I'm the go-to person for them because they know their fury friends are in good hands with me! I have two cats of my own (one male and one female - both spayed/neutered), but I do not have any dogs of my own. I work full time - typically Monday-Friday away from home from 8:30amuntil between 3-5:30pm. Occasionally I work a few hours on a Saturday or Sunday, but this is the typical. If your home is near my work, I usually am available to do walks or check-ins on my lunchbreak. I have a small, non-fenced, yard that works well for quick outside potty breaks but live in an area that is good for dog walks. I have a decent sized home, so any size dog would feel comfortable playing inside. All pets are welcome on the couch - especially for cuddle time - and I have a spare bedroom where they would be welcome in the bed. I have space to hold dog crates if your dog is more comfortable in their own space for sleep.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember! My family has always had multiple pets in our home at a time. I currently own a dog named Jax, and two cats named Milo and Lee! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperament. I have taken care of puppies, blind/deaf dogs, big dogs who like to take you on a walk instead 😅, cuddly and energetic labs, shy dogs who may hide, and I love them all the same! I am a nanny, so I also take my part in loving and taking care of their animals in their home or when they may travel! As a pet mom myself, I understand how big of a decision it is to search and trust for someone to look after your fur baby. That’s why I will always focus on communication and providing updates and pictures so you can feel at ease and comfortable. All animals are family, and I will treat your pet as if they were my own. When I come to your home, I promise to come with all the extra snuggles, belly rubs, or anything your pet may need to feel comfortable, keeping up with routines, required needs, and all different personalities. If your pet may need special medications, I also have experience with that area! I’m currently a college student, home full time for the summer! I go to a community college, so long term care is also available! Some hours may just change once I start again this Fall semester :) I care for each pet as if they were my own. My animals are my babies, my world, and I expect it is the same for all pet owners. You putting your trust in me to care for your babies means the world to me, and you won’t regret it! :)

“First off I have always had my fears about boarding. I have always avoided going anywhere overnight but I had a little work trip come up and so I had to find somewhere for my Eska. I was very happy with Tiffany and her communication with me while she had my girl. I couldn't be happier with the care she gave my Eska. I now feel I can comfortably board in the future and feel she will be in good hands.”

“Stephanie was excellent!! We left our dog with her and I could not have asked for better care. He was very well taken care of and he absolutely loved Stephanie. I would leave my dog there In a heartbeat.”

“Miranda treated my baby very well, she even gave them swimming pools and sent very funny videos of my dog having a lot of fun, I would definitely hire her again for boarding services, her house is very clean and spacious, she has kittens but my dog is seem to get along very well with them, she was sending me photos and videos all the time, which I appreciate very much, the fact that she is a veterinarian definitely adds a plus, since she surely knows what is good for them, thank you Miranda!”

“I have 2 small, senior dogs with special diets and medicines three times daily. One can have a "grumpy old man" attitude. They had not stayed with anyone but family & friends in the 2 & 4 years I've had them. Rumi and her husband were absolutely wonderful with them (and with me ☺️)! They were very flexible with me when my drop off schedule kept changing. She sent me pictures, videos, updates. The dogs always looked content. She advised me at pick up of a lump they felt on one dog. I highly recommend and will be using again.”

“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 ?”

“Nicole was kind, accommodating , flexible, and our dog Peach really did well with her! We received many updates with photos which was so much fun and appreciated! We didn’t even have to ask for those updates either 😊”

“I have two high energy beagles and Kelly took them on. She was even smiling when I picked them up. She kept me updated and included pictures. I will definitely have Kelly watch the dogs again and I am so grateful she was so good to them.”

“I felt extremely comfortable leaving my sweet guy in your very capable hands. I loved the pictures and updates. I will certainly look forward to another stay in the future. Highly recommend!!”

“I would recommend melody to anyone. I felt comfortable leaving my Scooby Doo while going off on a weekend family trip. He had a good time. I would use her again in the future as well.”

“We are so happy that Kelsi was able to watch our dog while we travelled all the way to Alaska. We were a little hesitant going so far away, but we were confident leaving her in Kelsi's care. She had our phone numbers, our vet's name and number along with our Aunt's phone number in Ohio just in case. Kelsi sent us lots of pictures and updates. It looked like Bailey had a wonderful time and it eased our fears of being so far away. We highly recommend Kelsi and will be leaving our dog in her care whenever we need her.”

“We have been booking with Heather for our 5 animals for years now. Heather and her husband watch our 4 dogs and cat once a year for our vacation. I schedule my vacations around them now because I don’t trust anyone else with my kids. I love that they always send daily updates with pictures and let me know any concerns they have (my one dog is getting old and stiff. Heather’s husband told me that he was bumping into things and might be developing some eyesight issues). They are very attentive. One year my cat and one dog got into a tiff (as they do sometimes) and Heather immediately contacted me and told me about it and told me she separated them to cool down. I have a very nervous rescue that does not like anyone but I get pictures of her laying with Heather and her husband. I have only ever seen this dog hug my husband or I in the 3 years we have had her but she hugs them. This tells me all I need to know since Ivy doesn’t trust anyone. My dogs seem to feel comfortable when I leave them there and not panicked. My cat and older dog take medicine daily and Heather gets my stubborn cat to take her medicine with no problem. Your pets are safe with them.”

“The dogs were very happy and well taken care of. I scheduled a day so the dogs could get to know them and feel comfortable before our vacation. They seemed comfortable and happy when we came to get them. We are definitely using Darlene again.”
About: I have been dog sitting for many, many years. My very well trained Labrador Retriever loves to have sleepovers and play dates with dog friends. I currently work from my home on Monday and Friday. I am 15 minutes from home on Tuesday,Wednesday and Thursday. So I will be able to come home for lunch and let your fur baby out. I can board on weekends as well. I have a large fenced in back yard and a friendly lab to play with your fur baby. I can crate if your dog if needed.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and a firm believer of caring for someone’s baby as if they were my own! I have anxiety leaving my babies for work or vacations and will always be understanding and empathetic to you and your babies during that time! I do work a normal 9-5 throughout the week, as a STNA doing home health, but I have Thursdays and Sundays off and available for all day help you may need! I’m also available for sitting overnight or multiple nights in your home or mine! I do have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own but my doggos are big puppy lovers and love play dates! As an STNA, I am in people’s homes all day everyday and just as I’ve been trusted the last four years with loved ones in the form of the elderly I take care of, I can be trusted with your loved ones in the form of fur babies 🫶🏼 I have a fenced in yard and two playful doggos always looking for play dates! As well as a puppy pool and plenty of toys that my doggos love to share! In your home, I love a good list of your pups routine and will stick to it to keep them happy and comfortable!
