“Hayley did a great job taking care of my dog. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. Not only was she great with my pet, but also did an amazing job communicating with me especially being flexible when I needed some help. I would love her to take care of my dog again.”


“Savannah was awesome! She kept me up to date with both pictures and videos. My husband and I both commented on how nice it was to take Sylvie to Savannah's home, compared to a boarding kennel. She got a lot more love, attention and care and came home smelling great too!”

“I had a great experience boarding my dog (Bowser). Kristen was friendly, caring, and professional, and it was clear that she genuinely loves animals. I felt comfortable knowing Bowser was in good hands while I was away. Bowser was well cared for, happy, and healthy when I picked him up. Her home was clean and well maintained. Kristen sent me daily updates and pics. I can tell she took the time to make sure Bowser was comfortable and received the attention he needed. I truly appreciate the peace of mind Kristen gave me while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring, reliable and affordable place to board their furry family member. We will definitely be back! 🐾❤️”

“Daniel and Rachel are always so accommodating and sends us many photos and videos of our Yote playing. He's always so happy to visit and pooped when we bring him home.”

“Deanna took great care of our dog! She was so kind and welcoming, and made me feel like our pup was safe and well cared for. I appreciated the photo updates throughout his stay with her! We'd be happy to have her care for him again!”


“Our dogs were well cared for! Michaela & Mackenzie are both very kind & easy to work with. We really appreciated how quickly we got responses to everything from booking through picking up. Would definitely recommend!”

“It’s never easy leaving my pups behind when going on a trip, but this was by far the best experience I could have asked for! Ellie had the best time with Jenna and Nathan. I received so many videos and photos of her playing in their backyard and getting love from the whole family. I was even a little nervous she wasn’t going to want to come back home with me after seeing how much fun she was having! Absolutely booking with them again!”

“Jan took wonderful care of our tiny Poo-chon! From the first meet-and-greet I could tell she prioritizes safety, and she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. Our little girl clearly loved her time there with walks, outdoor play, treats, and lots of lap time. We’ll definitely book with Jan again—actually, we already have!”

“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 😃😃😃”

“Athena is so kind and so compassionate, my dogs loved their time wither her & her family. They loved their new friend Rufus❤️ communication was outstanding, lots of pictures. It was such a comfort knowing how well cared for and loved my boys were while I was away. They were part of her family ❤️❤️❤️”

“It was the first time I left Kayla with anyone. On our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with Patti and knew she would take good care of my girl. Patti took excellent care of her. I booked with her because she only takes one pet at a time and she had a fenced in backyard. Patti sent me photos of Kayla fetching her ball which is her most favorite thing. I will definitely use her again.”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim!! She was the perfect fit for my 8yr old Mal-Shi, Ella. She took such good care of my anxious little girl, giving her lots of love & comfort, as well as paying attention to the details of her care. She absolutely treated her like the queen that she is.”

“Susan and Kenny are extremely professional and caring. We were very comfortable leaving our 6 yr old Bichapoo with them knowing she was being very well cared for. They are highly communicative and responsive and we were very happy with our experience. They are small dog whisperers and clearly understand how to work with and care for small dogs.”

“I was nervous about leaving my dog with a stranger, I had never used a pet sitting service before. I felt more at ease after meeting Sauddi and so appreciated her updates and the photos she provided. I would 100% recommend Sauddi to others and would absolutely board with her again myself.”

“This girl is absolutely awesome. Highly recommend her. Very engaged, flexible schedule. My Sphynx warmed up to her immediately. They are social and needed interaction. Pariss delivered. Will rebook.”

“Tara was prompt with updates and flexible with last-minute changes while taking care of our cats for a week over Christmas. My two needy cats acted like I had never been gone when I got home, so I know they got all the attention they needed and then some. Highly recommend Tara!!”

“Deanna was able to help us out with short notice and she was available right away for a meet and greet. For the first time in a few years, I was able to travel, trusting that my babies were in good care. Deanna sent regular updates and pics ensuring us all was well so we could enjoy the trip. I would definitely work with Deanna again. Thanks, D!!!!”


About: I have cared for cats my entire life, and grew up in a family that loved cats. I currently have a sweet 19 year old who has been diabetic and needed insulin for the past 5 years, along with other medications. I also had a cat with chronic kidney disease that required fluid injections daily, along with many other medications. I am very comfortable administering medications as gently and calmly as possible. I have also had cats in the past that lived into their early 20’s. I genuinely adore cats and try to give them the best care possible. I know it’s stressful to leave your babies with someone new, but I can assure you that I will try to keep them calm and happy until you return.

About: I love dogs. I have three at home. I would say I am well mannered and patient as well as attentive to their needs. I’ve had many experiences pet sitting and understand the expectations that are required to care for fur babies. I hope you will consider me! I currently don’t have a full-time job so I’m free anytime and for anything pet parents might need for their fur babies! Please consider me! Having multiple pets in my own home makes cleaning more of a chore so I try to keep everything as clean as possible. My dogs are on an invisible fence and have the whole yard to roam but I still try and play with them as much as I can. I would say I am a cleanly person and would help animals in any way I can!

“Rebekah was fantastic with my kitty Nyla. She is way more experienced than I am with cats, so it was awesome. She came to check on her 2-3 times per day, played with her, fed her & even turned on Cat TV for her. I got lots of notes each visit & pictures. I will for sure be using her in the future:)”

“I was away in Europe for a month, and Hayley took care of my cat with her sitting sessions, putting my worries at ease. Her communication is amazing and she was always reachable. I highly recommend Hayley and would love to work with her again.”

About: I have taken care of the pets for family and friends for years, with many over night stays with them. Animals tend to be drawn to me and I can never get enough of the unconditional love that they provide! I am great with requests for the special care of your special furry family members! I work at a school, so we are currently in summer and I am off of work at 2 ever day of the week, but also available at night for any possible over night needs! I will not be taking animals to my home, as I have a roommate who has cats and they do not do well with other animals.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently own a Catahoula Leopard dog and an Australian Cattle dog. I have been dog sitting since I was 14 and love taking care of/ walking dogs. I am currently a college student on summer break so I have a completely free schedule. I am free to walk or pet sit any time! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs who are well socialized. My dogs are 4 and 1 years old and are medium sized dogs.
About: I can sit and board during any holiday! I am new to the site, so that is why I do not have any reviews. I try to respond in less than thirty minutes. In the evening, I usually respond within a few minutes. I walk on a daily basis personally and am used to taking dogs on walks at least a few times a day. I have worked with all different breeds and do my research on breed specifications before taking care of any animal. I have helped taken care of animals that have to receive oral and injections daily. I have taken care of all ages of animals from babies to seniors. I have owned dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and rabbits. I currently do not own any animals, so that I can focus on your pets. I do usually send updates/pictures during the time your pet is with me, so that you know how they are doing I work as a nurse full time Monday through Friday. I started work usually no earlier than 745 am and am done no later than 5 pm. I have an hour long lunch break. I board on weekends so that I can be with your animal 24/7. I can dog sit throughout the week and dogs will receive a morning and evening walk as well as a lot of love and affection. I can do dog walking in the evening and if you live in the Fairlawn/Montrose area, I can do drop in visits between 12 pm-1 pm. I keep my availability up to date on this calendar as well. I live in a two bedroom apartment, but I live near a dog park I can take them to and can take them out every hour or two during the weekend if the board with me. I would take them on at least one walk minimum whether staying at my apartment or taking care of them at yours. The walks can vary from an half an hour to an hour or more depending on the dog and how your dog is feeling. I always ask their feeding schedule and an dietary restrictions. At my home, I have intellectual toys as well as just typical toys. If allowed, dogs and cats are more than welcome to sleep in bed with me. I allow animals on my furniture and have locks on cabinets to ensure they cannot get anything to harm them. I keep treats and food at my apartment. For walks, I have a hands free leash that goes around waist, so that way there is not a chance that the leash slips out of my hands.

“Kelli has been watching my Australian Shepard for nearly a month now on a weekly basis for doggie daycare. She does a wonderful job playing, walking, and caring for my Ruby. She manages Rubys high energy and chaotic personality. Kelli is a great experienced sitter and I would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: Hi I’m Hayley! I have about a year of Rover experience, doing doggie drop ins and walks. A little bit about me: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs nearly my entire life. I’ve never met a cat I didn’t love! I have two super friendly poodle mixes Nova and Arlo. Not only have I taken care of cats/dogs for 20+ years, I’m also the first to volunteer to care for my friends and neighbors beloved pets. I once babysat a neighbors 30 outdoor cats! I also have experience with senior cats and dogs. My expertise with dogs are home visits, walking and fetch or playing. I have a toddler who also loves animals and will accompany me at times, so a friendly dog is a MUST. I will watch one small/medium dog at my home in Ravenna prior to meeting them to ensure they get along with my pups. I treat my pets like family members, and would love to care for yours as well! I work a flexible hybrid schedule so I’m willing to work with your schedule. I’m available for overnight doggy daycare at my home for one family friendly pup if you’re out of town. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups to keep your dog company. They love to play! I’m willing and able to crate if needed as well.
About: Your pet is treated as my own and a family member. Your fur baby is not crated unless you request that and provide the crate. Your pet gets to go outside and run and play several times a day. I go out and encourage playing and running for exercise. When the weather permits, we walk through the field and explore along the canal. If your pet is older and doesn't want to play or explore, that's ok. I have plenty of shaded areas for them to just lounge and take a snooze while I sit with them and read. I would love to share your fur babies with you. Must provide proof of all shot records (including Kennel Cough vaccine). I insist on a meet and greet to make sure that your fur baby is going to be a good match with our family. I do not board pit bulls (or pit mixes), German Shepherds, Rottweilers it any aggressive dogs for my safety as well as my pup. I am retired. I never leave your pups alone. If I need to run to the store, my husband is here with the pups. When the pups are outside, I'm outside work them. I have a large fenced in back yard and a standard poodle that would love to play with your pup/pups and keep them company. She loves having new playmates.
“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!”

“Maggie really enjoyed her doggie daycare with April in her home, this included Ollie, April’s doggie! Her parents enjoyed it even more that Maggie was safe and in good hands. April was professional and prompt in communication and sent doggie report cards each day with pictures! She was super accommodating with our special hours for pick up and drop off. We definitely will be returning to April in the future!”
About: I have always had pets of all kinds growing up along with much love for all wildlife. Currently I have 4 cats, 2 dogs, 3 fish and many snails, and a lot of plants! My dog growing up became diabetic (also blind) and I provided him supportive care for the remaining 5 years he had (including special meals and insulin shots)! I have rescued several cats and found loving homes after getting them medical care (I always keep in touch). One of my cats was a bottle baby after finding her on the side of the road at only 3 weeks old, she is now almost 2. I also provided supportive care for my two eldest cats (11years) after their major surgeries (perineal urethrostomy and gallbladder removal). I am also in the process of obtaining my wildlife rehabilitation permit for I always seem to be brought animals to care for and I would like to do more for them than just transporting to a rehabilitator! I have a lot of room at my house which includes the finished basement area with separate rooms, a mudroom, a large fenced in backyard, and kennels if needed. I'm willing to travel to you, or care for your animals here! All my animals are friendly (successfully introduced and integrated) but if yours needs some privacy I can absolutely provide it. I'm here to help, I hope it's clear how important your fur babies would be to me! I would love to make whatever it is you need happen. I am currently a stay at home mom with my own fur babies. My day starts at 6AM when I wake up to feed and walk the dogs and check to see if the cats need anything. I would be more than happy to care for your animal(s) here or get out of the house and care for them in their home! I have a large fenced in yard, a finished basement with separate rooms, a separate mudroom, and kennels if needed! My 4 cats and 2 dogs roam the house and would love to make new friends, but if your animals are shy, we have plenty of space to accommodate. All I ask is for a clear set of instructions if caring for your pet in your home and you can expect those instructions to be carried out with love and respect for your animal(s) and property. I am also insured for pet care/housesitting through PCI.
“Alyssa was amazing! We have a pretty nervous/shy pup that takes a while to warm up to new people and she did a wonderful job making sure he was comfortable while he was with her. She is professional and quick to respond to all questions. Would definitely recommend her for your dog sitting needs.”

“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.”

About: With 10+ years of hands-on clinical veterinary experience, combined with a lifetime of growing up around, caring for, and working with animals, I bring over a decade of cumulative experience in veterinary medicine, pet care, and animal husbandry. My experience with animals began long before my professional veterinary career and includes dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, cows, horses, and many other animals. This lifelong connection has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care, handling, and well-being that extends far beyond the clinical setting. Throughout my veterinary career, I have consistently pursued continuing education through seminars, conferences, specialized training, and additional coursework to continually expand my knowledge and strengthen my clinical skill set. I have maintained **BLS and ALS CPR certification since 2020** and have been **Fear Free Certified since 2018**, along with holding numerous additional certifications, continuing education achievements, and awards earned throughout my career. The majority of my professional veterinary experience has been concentrated in **surgery, emergency medicine, and intensive care/ICU**, where attention to detail, critical thinking, and the ability to recognize subtle changes in a patient's condition are essential. These experiences have taught me to be highly observant and proactive, with a strong understanding of early warning signs and indicators that may suggest a patient is developing a problem. I take pride in being attentive to the small details that can make a significant difference in an animal's outcome. Pets are my passion, and pet people are my people. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both animals and their families and believe exceptional veterinary care should be built on compassion, communication, trust, and a little fun along the way. Whether I am caring for a critically ill patient, assisting with surgery, supporting a fearful/nervous pet, or simply making an animal's day a little better, I bring the same level of dedication and enthusiasm to every patient. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, valued, and well cared for—and every pet parent deserves to know that their beloved companion is in capable, compassionate hands. Your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and compassion I can provide—and we'll have some fun along the way. I am comfortable and experienced in caring for patients across a wide range of ages, conditions, and levels of acuity. My clinical experience includes the safe administration and management of oral, injectable, and topical medications, as well as monitoring patients receiving ongoing or complex treatment plans. I am comfortable working with advanced and late-stage disease, chronic and complex medical conditions, hospice and end-of-life care, geriatric patients, pediatrics, neonates, and emergency cases. My background in surgery, emergency medicine, and ICU/critical care has strengthened my ability to remain calm and attentive in high-pressure situations while recognizing subtle changes in a patient's condition and responding appropriately. I understand that each patient requires an individualized approach, and I am committed to providing compassionate, thorough, and attentive care whether a patient is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, beginning life as a neonate, facing an emergency, or approaching the end of life. I am equally comfortable providing hands-on nursing care, assisting with treatment plans, communicating observations to the veterinary team, educating and supporting pet parents, and advocating for the patient's comfort and overall quality of life. Pet care has been a huge part of my daily and weekly routine for more than 10 years. Whether I’m working in veterinary medicine or caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m accustomed to making animal care a priority and building it naturally into my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, routines, and individual needs. For me, providing consistent, attentive care isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve built my life around and truly love doing. I approach every pet as an individual and tailor my care to their specific personality, routine, medical needs, and comfort level. Whether I am caring for a pet in my own home or in a client's home, my priority is always to provide a **safe, calm, consistent, and loving environment** that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies and kittens, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, medically complex patients, and animals requiring medications or additional monitoring. I can administer **oral, injectable, and topical medications**, follow detailed feeding and treatment instructions, monitor changes in behavior or condition, and recognize when something may warrant veterinary attention. My background in emergency, critical care, ICU, and surgery has made me particularly attentive to subtle changes that may indicate a problem. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect that I am also caring for someone's home and follow their instructions closely. I maintain established feeding, medication, exercise, potty, sleep, and enrichment routines whenever possible. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel connected while they are away. When caring for pets in my own home, I focus on creating a secure and comfortable environment while considering each animal's temperament, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs. I believe pets shouldn't simply be "watched" while their owners are away—they should receive attention, companionship, enrichment, affection, and quality care. Ultimately, my goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and compassionate hands.
About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life, and now that I’m recently retired, I have the time to give them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I treat every dog like part of the family—whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or just relaxing together. With a calm, patient nature and a flexible schedule, I can focus fully on your pet’s needs and routines. You can rest easy knowing they’ll be safe, happy, and loved like one of my own. I am recently retired and am available all of the time. I currently have two small dogs of my own and watching an additional dog would be no trouble at all. If you dog stays with me, they will be treated just like my own pet. I am able to walk them, feed them special diets, or administer oral medication. I am home almost all of the time and can give them the attention they need.

About: It’s simple. I just love dogs. I love my dog. I’ve had dogs all my life. I like to walk dogs just plain and simple. I have a friendly dog now and walk it and let it outside and take care of it. He’s part of my family and fixed. I have a fenced in yard and pay a lot of attention to the animals needs. I make sure they’re happy and pay a lot of attention to animals.
About: From the time I was 3 years old, I've had 4 cats and 2 dogs! I have looked after pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and love them like my own. I have experience walking, bathing, feeding, and playing with cats and dogs. I am very good at teaching puppies new tricks! I also have experience administering both oral and injected medication to both dogs and cats. Let me love on your pet today! I’m currently a Stay At Home Mom to an 15 month old, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you’re away! I’m always home and ready to help. My home has an unfenced yard, but with your permission, I could take them to the dog park to run and play off the leash!
“Marie & Jorge were amazing with our Blu! They took lots of pictures and kept us updated throughout the day. They were so caring and loving with her. We will 100% be back!!”

“She was very kind and respondent to requested service at last minute. She definitely seemed like she knew what she was doing, not only does she watch them and do the necessities she goes above and beyond and trains them too while under her care Highly recommend!!”

“Parris is a natural with animals. She stepped in with my rescue dog when I needed some extra help walking him. She was patient with him and understood that he would need time to trust her. It is obvious as soon as you meet Parris that she is experienced, confident and has a genuine love for animals. I highly recommend Parris for your pet needs especially if you have a pet that is challenging.”

About: I have always loved animals since I was a kid. Once I was 12 I started bathing and grooming dogs, which then lead me to watch animals overnight. The longest I have taken care of pets was a two week long period. I am very responsible, timely, and have a dog of my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, and even some training experience as well. I am currently a part time worker, and full time college student with mostly online classes. I am available to do mostly everyday of the week as long as I am known in advance. I believe animals will treat us just as we treat them or better. My dog is my best friend (we even have matching pjs). I understand the deep love people have for their pets and I respect and plan to love and care for their pets just as much. I am gentle, patient, and understand animal language very well.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other exotic animals for majority of my life. I have experience with babysitting animals during the day and doing overnights. Family and family friends have often asked me if I can help with taking care of their animals. I also have experience with volunteering at shelters, and at a wildlife rehab. I am currently a part time college student, as well as a part time worker, with four hour shifts. Though, I still have a very flexible schedule and will always make sure and work hard to prioritize your critters :) ! I am also available to do overnights if need be!! When it comes to caring for your critters within your home, I make sure to follow your instructions, keep everything clean and in order, as well as still giving your critters plenty of attention and affection!
About: I am a second year zoology major with the intention of further education in animal care. I have cared for the family dogs for just about six years (a combined number of four at this point). I am my family and friends' go to sitter. I am reliable and consistent. I am comfortable with pretty much anything, and have plenty of experience with reactive/aggressive dogs. During the summer I work full-time, and I'm a full-time student during the school year, however I don't have much going on outside of that and have plenty of time for drop-in care throughout the day. I’m also totally okay with overnight stays. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide boarding services due to my living situation. I am happy to provide whatever services you need within your home!

About: I have handled small animals and reptiles for 9 years, cats and dogs for 7, and horses and livestock for 6! I have a variety of experience with many different breeds with many different temperaments. There isn’t much I can’t handle! I currently only work part time at a local rescue/shelter so I have some time on my hands! I have my own car that I don’t mind getting some fur and dirt in, so if your pups are a fan of hikes or just want to go on an adventure that’s no problem for me! I take animal care and welfare very seriously, my babies get water and food dishes scrubbed daily, proper diet tailored to their needs, whatever exercise they require, and all the attention they could ever ask for! I will treat your pets as if they were my own, keeping a clean, happy, healthy environment for them!
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently own a Catahoula Leopard dog and an Australian Cattle dog. I have been dog sitting since I was 14 and love taking care of/ walking dogs. I am currently a college student on summer break so I have a completely free schedule. I am free to walk or pet sit any time! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs who are well socialized. My dogs are 4 and 1 years old and are medium sized dogs.
About: I’ve worked with many kinds of animals, including (but not limited limited to) Dogs, Cats, Horses, Bunnies, Guinea pigs and other rodents, birds, and farm animals! I have also worked with special needs and disabled animals I’m a student and in training to be an EMT! I’m available most weekends and evenings, along with morning check-ins on weekdays! I also do overnight visits on special request. I’m an experienced animal lover and carer! Will always love on animals that want that and respect boundaries when they don’t. Experiences with crate trained behavior and basic teaching techniques.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes. Also, have been trusted by many family members & friends to take care of their dogs. This includes taking care of an elderly dog who takes multiple medications & has some trouble getting around, & on the other end of the spectrum a very active & young husky, plus many more! I am a full time athletic trainer at a college, but get a month off in the summer. The other month I work during the summer I only work 4 hour shifts so will have plenty of time to attend to pups! Moving forward after summer I can pick up random week nights & weekends here & there! I am an active person so would love to walk with a dog & take it out to run around & play! On the flip side, I also love cuddles & will give your pups all the attention they would need!
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I've cared for a variety of pets: seniors, puppies, cats, kittens, high energy, shy or anxious. I’m patient, gentle, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s needs and routine. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always keep their comfort, safety, and happiness as my top priorities. I currently am a pharmacy technician full time but I typically have 3 days off weekly and time before and after work available for your pets needs. I’m someone who believes pets deserve the same comfort, safety, and love they get at home. When your pet stays with me, they’re not just being “watched”—they’re being cared for thoughtfully and responsibly.

About: I grew up with big and small dogs and I am comfortable with any breed or age. I also have taken care of cats since I was young. I currently own a 13 year old tuxedo cat named Barri. Currently have full summer availability for pet care. Starting August 24th I will begin my fall college schedule at Kent State University and I will be unavailable for booking for 2 weeks. I am comfortable visiting any type of housing to care for your pet, whether it is a quick pee break or a long play date to keep your furry friend company.

“Hayley did a great job taking care of my dog. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. Not only was she great with my pet, but also did an amazing job communicating with me especially being flexible when I needed some help. I would love her to take care of my dog again.”


“Savannah was awesome! She kept me up to date with both pictures and videos. My husband and I both commented on how nice it was to take Sylvie to Savannah's home, compared to a boarding kennel. She got a lot more love, attention and care and came home smelling great too!”

“I had a great experience boarding my dog (Bowser). Kristen was friendly, caring, and professional, and it was clear that she genuinely loves animals. I felt comfortable knowing Bowser was in good hands while I was away. Bowser was well cared for, happy, and healthy when I picked him up. Her home was clean and well maintained. Kristen sent me daily updates and pics. I can tell she took the time to make sure Bowser was comfortable and received the attention he needed. I truly appreciate the peace of mind Kristen gave me while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring, reliable and affordable place to board their furry family member. We will definitely be back! 🐾❤️”

“Daniel and Rachel are always so accommodating and sends us many photos and videos of our Yote playing. He's always so happy to visit and pooped when we bring him home.”


“Our dogs were well cared for! Michaela & Mackenzie are both very kind & easy to work with. We really appreciated how quickly we got responses to everything from booking through picking up. Would definitely recommend!”

“It’s never easy leaving my pups behind when going on a trip, but this was by far the best experience I could have asked for! Ellie had the best time with Jenna and Nathan. I received so many videos and photos of her playing in their backyard and getting love from the whole family. I was even a little nervous she wasn’t going to want to come back home with me after seeing how much fun she was having! Absolutely booking with them again!”

“Athena is so kind and so compassionate, my dogs loved their time wither her & her family. They loved their new friend Rufus❤️ communication was outstanding, lots of pictures. It was such a comfort knowing how well cared for and loved my boys were while I was away. They were part of her family ❤️❤️❤️”

“It was the first time I left Kayla with anyone. On our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with Patti and knew she would take good care of my girl. Patti took excellent care of her. I booked with her because she only takes one pet at a time and she had a fenced in backyard. Patti sent me photos of Kayla fetching her ball which is her most favorite thing. I will definitely use her again.”

“I was nervous about leaving my dog with a stranger, I had never used a pet sitting service before. I felt more at ease after meeting Sauddi and so appreciated her updates and the photos she provided. I would 100% recommend Sauddi to others and would absolutely board with her again myself.”

“Jessica took great are of our dog while we were away. The daily photos she sent showed that Sundance was comfortable in his temporary surroundings, which gave us peace of mind. She has a nice fenced yard where dogs can enjoy outdoors time. She was available for meet/greet and drop off/pick up. All went smoothly!”

“She was amazing. Very accommodating to us doing later in the day drop off and pick up. She gave great updates and made Tater tot comfortable! Will use her again in the future if we need a dog sitter! Thanks for everything”

“Marshall stayed with April and her husband four nights. We were hopeful that he would do well but they treated him like royalty. Marshall does not usually get along with the neighborhood dogs but did great with his new puppy friends...Ollie, Rickey and his new girlfriend, Sophie. April and Mark took them to the park and made our being away from him so much easier. I really don't think you can get any better than them to care and love your fur baby when you are away!”


“Connie is Wonderful!!!! She gave me updates and pictures. Her dog was the perfect playmate for my dog. I felt confident leaving my dog with her because she has tons of experience with dogs. She is a trainer, a groomer and very active in the dog world. She is perfectly set up to handle multiple dogs. She has a nice fenced in, shaded backyard that is very private. It makes for a great doggie playground. My dog's stay was a totally positive experience. I would definitely book with Connie again. You can tell...Connie truly loves dogs!!! I can't say enough about her!!!”

“Melissa was amazing! I was nervous to leave my dog I’ve never left her with a stranger before and as soon as I met her I know it would be good. She gave me daily updates and pics which I loved and felt at ease on my vacation. Will def be booking her again if needed!🩷”

“Keith and Rebecca took great care of my dog for the week. They were very responsive and sent me updates every day. Will definitely be back when I need someone to watch my dog again. Highly recommend”

“Leaving behind our 5-month-old puppy for an 11-day vacation filled me with nervousness. After speaking to several people, I found Sarah, who I knew was the perfect choice. Sarah's attention to detail was impeccable - she gathered all the necessary information and maintained my puppy's routine flawlessly. Keeping us updated with photos and videos, Sarah's care provided me with peace of mind throughout my vacation. When our puppy returned home, he was just as happy and carefree as if he had never been away.”
