About: I've been around animals since I was very young and love all of them. They are part of my family and will be treated as such while they're with me. I enjoy going on walks and keeping pets happy and entertained. I believe it's very important to know your fur babies will be in great hands when boarding with me. My beloved dog Mario is no longer with me; he lived for 13 wonderful years and was the best dog anyone could ask for. I haven't been able to get another one since then. Watching and caring for other pets makes me happy and brings me joy. I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week. Working from Home is a blessing and has given me the flexibility to care for others pets. I do not have a fenced yard, but I live in a development that gives me plenty of opportunities to go for walks. As long as they come with a leash we will be walking.
About: I’ve always loved animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’m patient, reliable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I pay close attention to instructions, communicate regularly with updates and photos, and make sure every pet receives the care and attention they deserve. I work entirely from home, which gives me a highly flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. I can easily accommodate potty breaks, mid-day walks, and constant companionship throughout the week. My weekends are completely open for extended playtime, boarding, or overnight house sitting. When watching pets in your home, safety and respect for your space are my top priorities. I stick strictly to your established routines, double-check that all doors and gates are secure before and after walks, and keep in constant contact with daily photo updates to give you complete peace of mind. My home is a cozy, pet-friendly space where your dog's safety is my number one priority. While I do not have a fenced yard, I always keep dogs securely leashed during all outdoor bathroom breaks and walks. I strictly follow your feeding routines and provide constant supervision to keep them safe and happy.
“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Kathy clearly loves dogs and is very careful to make sure she knows all the needs of your pup before you leave. She sent updates and photos that eased my worry about leaving my dog with a new sitter. Frances came home happy and tired! :)”
“Hayley was so easy to work with and took great care of our dog! She provided plenty of updates and pictures throughout the stay! Our dog and hers got along perfectly. We will absolutely be using Hayley's services again in the future!”
“This was our second booking with Keksey. She's super easy going and great with our fur baby. Her dog, Mozilla, also seems to enjoy Lilys company. We got some pics of the dogs playing together and some chill time pics too. Im an anxious dog dad because I worry about my dog when im not around but Kelsey has taken great care of her on both occasions. I highly recommend her anyone who needs care for their baby. Just dont take any of the dates I need. 🤣”
“Loved Ariel! Easy to work with, great personality, clean home and quick communication. Kept sending us pictures of our cat and showed how well he was getting along with all the other animals. We will definitely be working with her again for our next vacation. Thanks Ariel!”
“Megan was wonderful. She treated Louie like her own family pet. I felt comfortable and confident that he was happy and well care of better than well. She communicated with me and made the idea of leaving my boy for so many days less stressful.”
“Bri I wanna thank you so much for your boarding service! You are God sent. You loved on my baby, kept me informed, sent pictures and treated him like your own. You took great care of my Brawny! I am looking forward to booking with you again! I appreciate you!!!”
“Rachel was great, she made it convenient for me to drop my dog off for boarding, and when I picked him Up he jumped over to Rachel and gave her a big hug, I think he wanted to stay with her, he might like her more than me!!”
“This was our third time having our Maltese boarding at Beth's place. Beth was a great host as usual. She responded fast on Rover and shared lovely photos of our dog during the stay. We are very thankful for having Beth as our host and would recommend her for sure.”

“Ollie is a very scared and timid cat. He’s a rescue and was returned a few times to the shelter before my dad adopted him. He doesn’t come out for anyone else but my dad or if my dad is home. Brittany somehow had him out and playing with her. Idk how but I’m so glad that she did. I cannot express the relief we felt when she messaged us the video of him playing with her! I’m so grateful that she is doing this. We will definitely be using her service again in the future. Absolutely wonderful.”
About: I’m a dependable and caring cat sitter who understands that every cat has their own unique personality. Whether your cat loves to play or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to feed, refresh water, clean litter boxes, play with toys, provide cuddles (if they want them!), and send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Katrina is our go-to sitter for our two cats when we need house sitting. She’s always professional, reliable, and trustworthy. She communicates promptly and provides great updates. We are fortunate to have found her!”
“Taylor is an excellent pet sitter! We are so very pleased with her loving and caring attention to our pups. Plus her communication with us while we were away was outstanding and provided much peace of mind.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover; I have cared for my own pets most of my life, and did my first ever (non-family) pet sitting job when I was about 12 years old. I have experience with dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals. My husband and I currently have a dog and cat indoors, along with a pair of cats and fifteen ducks outside. My current pup, Abby, has taught me a lot about dog body language and behavior, so I'm better equipped than ever to interact with anxious dogs. I work full time, but can still provide house sitting services if you're comfortable with me being away during the day Monday-Friday, and can provide drop in and walking services early mornings/evenings during the week. Most weekend days I can be available all day. I'll be sure that I have and understand any instructions you have for your pets to ensure that they get the care they expect and deserve. I've also just completed a PetTech first aid and CPR class to be sure I'm able to keep your pets as safe as possible.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, and have taken care of all kinds of animals. I have experience with caring for sick pets including giving fluids to cat with an IV drip bag, handled emergencies, had a diabetic cat that I gave insulin shots and have a physically disabled cat. I have owned snakes, scorpions, jumping spiders, hermit crabs, Guinea pigs, cats, dogs, fish, birds (I also babysat my friends African grey parrot for a year). I volunteered at a wildlife sanctuary for a few years and took care of wild birds, opossum, squirrels, etc.
“Morgan was great with my cat, and really got him to warm up to her. She was very communicative, prompt, and responsive during the visits, overall a great experience and I would recommend Morgan to anyone!”
About: Growing up I have had a variety of cats. Indoor outdoor. They were always around. Easy to care for. They must have a clean litter box, fresh water and food. I’m able to give medication when needed. I’m reliable and trustworthy. My job is to keep them safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have owned cats since I was a kid, and I currently have my own kitten as well as 3 other cats living in my house (they’re not mine they’re my boyfriend’s families) and I have a regular client whose cats I take care of. I have volunteered at an animal shelter that required me to desensitize feral cats, provide enrichment, perform daily care, and more. I love cats so much and I would love for the opportunity to take care of yours!

About: I currently have a 4 year old mini Australian shepherd. My experience includes watching a puppy overnight, helping train a deaf dog, and taking neighbors dogs on walks. I am a teacher so I am available all of June-August to provide all day care for dogs or just walk dogs during the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of affection. I follow each dog’s routine and make sure they feel happy and relaxed while they’re away from home.
“Brandon was amazing with our dog Dixie and made everything very easy. With this being our first time outside of family dog sitting he kept us in the loop with everything going on. We will definitely be booking with him again.”
“Andrew provided excellent care for our precious dogs. He kept them exercised, hydrated and rested. He sent pics and updates and made us feel so relaxed about our decision. Will definitely have Andrew watch our pups again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since i was under 10 years old! I volunteered at an animal shelter and know how to help train! I currently am working from home so I have plenty of time to care of animals , train with them, and play with them as well! I myself have a half fenced in yard. I have a lovely corgi/aussie dog for your pup to play with! I can also crate if you need!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i had my first dog in the first grade. A white Samoyed. When she was 3 she has 7 puppies! I was obsessed with them. We sold 6 and kept one. So we had 2 big white Samoyed’s that I had the responsibility of raising and attending to. They were my whole world. I’m always the first to be asked to watch someone’s dog because if there’s one thing I’m passionate about, it’s loving on dogs. I now have a mini dachshund who i love so much. I have experience with puppies, big dogs, little dogs, and senior dogs. I’m able to train puppies and care for senior dogs who would need more help in their day to day activities such as meds, frequent potty breaks, and patience. I also had an internship with the lake humane society in high school and have a special place in my heart for rescue dogs/cats who could use some extra love. I am currently a stay at home mom with my 8 year old who is in school and 1 year old who both love dogs I figured i could help out some dog momma or daddies who aren’t able to be home with them all day. I am able to let your dog out every couple hours. And even take them for brief walks. We have plenty of dog toys to share, bully sticks (while supervised), treats, and extra dog bowls if needed. My husband is a realtor so is home most of the time if i am not. I crate our dog at home when we leave. I also have a camera just in case to make sure she’s okay while we’re gone. We moved so we don’t have a fenced in yard anymore. But had leads if they want to stay outside for a longer period of time. I also live next to my parents who have a fenced in yard where i could take them if you feel more comfortable with that.
“Amanda, Aaron, and their precious pups are wonderful! ???? Our 12 week old little girly has been socialized with all ages, shapes, and sizes of people, but not with other furry friends! Well, She had a daycare day today! She was nervous and shy at first, but then couldn’t care less about me when I came to pick her up!??♀️She loved playing and hanging out with new friends! Amanda updated me and sent me photos throughout the day! They have their house set up so they can separate the dogs if need be, and she took them out one at a time so as not to have them wrestling around in the wet mud, etc. I appreciate that! ☺️ I can tell Amanda and Aaron love dogs- we are so thankful! ?????”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages since I was 18 years old. I had an elder dog that I had to put down recently and I love them so much! Happy to help with any medications or injections that are needed. Just would need a refresher in the injections. If you have any questions or would like to know more about me and my family please don't hesitate to ask. I am available all day most days. I am home 24/7. Outside of just running errands. I have 1 dog and 1 cat that I already take care of daily. So adding on a couple more doesn't hurt. Your pets have free range of the house as long as they are well mannered. My backyard is fenced with a 6ft privacy fence. My cat and dog are both on vectra for flea treatment. They are welcome anywhere in my house.
About: I always bring a treat depending on the pups diet. There will always be plenty of kisses given. I like to help with training. I can have Spot sitting on command after 30 minutes. Playing indoor or outdoors is my favorite thing to do. Especially hide and seek or playing in the pool. I’m good at observing dogs habits to understand what they do and don’t like. I volunteer with a local rescue and have helped with fostering. I am more than happy to help with an special needs and understand that they are all different. I enjoy helping animals, if I see them scratching their ears... I’ll gladly scratch them for them. I would feel bad not helping them out. I have experience watching deaf, blind, reactive/temperamental dogs. I am confident in working with them. My 2 dogs are spoiled rotten and socialized. They love meeting new pups. They sleep with me each night. I do respect owners wishes, if you do not want them on furniture. I will gladly abide. I have a client that has a list of things her dogs can and cannot eat. I take the owners wishes seriously. I’m very easy going and thrive on direct communication.
About: Hello! My name is Maria and I am very excited to meet your furry friend! I’ve raised 2 large dogs and 2 small dogs so I am comfortable with any size pet. I also worked at a doggie day care center where I worked with all size dogs for 8 plus hours at a time and facilitated friendly play so I am able to handle multiple dogs or cats at a time!

I care for my own pets with walks, park visits, swimming, agility and lots of playing. I am always cautious when taking care of pets in my home or another persons home. I understand that allowing someone into your home can be nerve racking so I am always sure to communicate as much as I can with home owners and follow their specific instructions to ensure the visit goes as smooth as possible.
About: I’ve been around all animals my whole life, My friends and family have always called me an animal whisperer because I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me.

About: ✨ Personalized Cat Care ✨ Hello, friends and fur babies! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have been a trusted Rover sitter since May 2023. While I grew up around dogs and volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, my professional pet-sitting journey has naturally led me to specialize in personalized, high-quality cat care. I’ve had the opportunity to care for cats of all personalities and needs, including multi-cat households, senior cats, and shy or anxious kitties. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed care routines, and providing patient, attentive support tailored to each cat’s temperament. My approach focuses on consistency, comfort, and enrichment. Each visit is intentional and unhurried, with thoughtful attention given to interactive play, mental stimulation, cozy companionship, and plenty of affection—always respecting your cat’s individual boundaries and preferences. If you’re traveling this holiday season and want peace of mind knowing your cat is receiving attentive, personalized care in the comfort of their own home, I’d love to connect. 🐾🤍 I am currently working full-time as a nanny and part-time as a bartender at a local restaurant. My schedule can be busy, but I am very flexible and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Please feel free to message me to discuss your schedule—I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care they deserve! I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I primarily offer drop-in visits and am highly detail-oriented and attentive when it comes to following instructions. My goal is always to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in the care I provide. For first-time bookings, a scheduled “meet and greet” is required. This helps prevent any miscommunication about expectations, ensures your pet is comfortable with me, and confirms that I’m a good fit for your family.

About: Hello fellow pet peeps! I’ve had pets as long as I can remember- I’ve been lucky enough to have been a pet mama to small pocket pets, cats, dogs, reptiles (snakes and lizards), fish, a chinchilla named Jerry and even a small flock of chickens! I am a teacher, so I have time this summer to help out! I would love to offer my services to all the families needing someone to look after their furry (or scaley) family members. I can offer housesitting, but I am unable to stay over night due to my own family needs at this time. I can be flexible and would love to help if I can. I have a lot of experience taking care of different types of animals, but would always follow the specific directions based on the needs of your pet. I am comfortable with all types of pet care including medication needs, crating, potty training etc…

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs.

Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.
“Sandy was awesome! She walked my pup, played with her, and fed her. She also sent pictures and stayed in contact. I really appreciate her helping me while I was out of town. Derby seemed so happy after being with her. Can’t say thank you enough!”
About: Ive taken care of all sorts of dogs my entire life, whether theyre my own, family friends, or volunteering at shelters. I especially have a lot of experience dealing with scared or anxious dogs, this is because all of my pets are rescued from bad situations so I have learned over time how to read their body language and act exactly how they need to be comfortable. I am very available during the summer months so if you reach out I am more than sure that I will be able to work something out with you! For dog walking if there is a neighborhood I will happily walk your dog in that neighborhood. However if it is not available I have my car set up to keep your dog safe in the backseat, granted that theyre ok being in a car, this way I can take your dog to a nearby park to walk. If your dog is not comfortable being in a car and there is not a neighborhood set up, im sure we can work something out! I always bring anything and everything your dog could need on a short walk such as a water bowl, bags, extra leashes, and treats.

We look forward to meeting you and learning about your dog's special needs. About this sitter: I am passionate about making sure all of your pet's needs are met. I understand that your dog may not understand why they are in a new environment and may miss you, so I make every effort to make them feel loved, pampered and comfortable, so they feel like you sent them on their own special vacation. You can rest assured that your dog will be the focus of my attention while you are away, and I will send lots of pictures, so you can enjoy your vacation.

Meet my pet I have one 9-year-old pampered pit bull mix, Karma, who get along with other dogs. She is spayed and UTD on all shots, flea and heartworm medications. About our yard We have a huge 2 acre groomed back yard. However, I will keep your dog on a leash at all times unless you give me permission to let them run around the yard freely while being supervised at all times. I have extensive experience administering medications, nail trimming and bathing. I am experienced and comfortable administering oral medication, topical, injections and eye and ear medications. I am home full time and do not have a job. Your dog will receive my undivided attention. I will let your pup outside to play at least four times a day, and more if needed. If your dog is a senior or a puppy, then their play schedule will be adjusted according to their activity level. I will keep your dog on a leash while playing in our back yard, since the entire five acres is not fenced, unless you specifically tell me that it's okay to take them off the leash to play ball. At your home, I will follow whatever protocol you have in place, whether that be leashed walks or unleashed play in your yard.

I’ve developed strong skills in handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities while maintaining a clean, organized, and stress-free environment 🐾🩷 Pet care is a central part of my daily schedule through my work at a dog boarding and daycare center. Each day involves hands-on responsibilities such as feeding, exercising, supervising playgroups, monitoring behavior and health, and maintaining clean and safe environments for the dogs in my care. Because my workday is structured around consistent routines and animal needs, I am accustomed to prioritizing timely care, attention, and safety. This experience allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my schedule while remaining reliable, attentive, and responsive to each dog’s individual needs. When walking pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and enjoyment at all times. I ensure each walk is suited to the dog’s age, energy level, and temperament, providing appropriate exercise while maintaining control and awareness of surroundings. I pay close attention to behavior, leash manners, and potential hazards, and I follow any specific instructions regarding routes, pacing, or handling. Throughout the walk, I offer positive reinforcement, patience, and attentive care to ensure each pet feels secure, stimulated, and well cared for.
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life! I started volunteering at shelters at the age of 13! I started my animal care career in 2014 working at the best rated doggy daycare/boarding/ and training facility in Cleveland until 2020. During that time I also worked at an animal hospital for over a year getting more educated on animals! I also worked part time in a pet store where I was hands on with all of the animals there. In 2020 I opened my own business making all natural and healthy dog treats as well. I am equipped with helping with any meds from a pill to an injection as well if needed during my visit with your pet! I am currently self employed as well as my wife so we are free a majority of the time. Our whole life is dedicated to our pets so pet care is our #1 priority! I currently have 3 dogs and 5 cats that are on the best rated food I can find! Fully vaccinated and well taken care of! Living on an acre of land that is fenced in all for my dogs to explore and have fun on! I take my pets life and health very seriously so I am very hands on!
About: Hello! My name is Maria and I am very excited to meet your furry friend! I’ve raised 2 large dogs and 2 small dogs so I am comfortable with any size pet. I also worked at a doggie day care center where I worked with all size dogs for 8 plus hours at a time and facilitated friendly play so I am able to handle multiple dogs or cats at a time! I live in the mentor area but am willing to travel as well. Please let me know if this is the type of sitter you are looking for! I work as a nurse so my schedule is pretty flexible. I care for my own pets with walks, park visits, swimming, agility and lots of playing. I am always cautious when taking care of pets in my home or another persons home. I understand that allowing someone into your home can be nerve racking so I am always sure to communicate as much as I can with home owners and follow their specific instructions to ensure the visit goes as smooth as possible.
About: Ive always had pets growing up. I currently live with my mom and her two dogs. I've also cared for bearded dragons before and I also have a 65lb sulcata tortoise. I've dealt with dogs of all sizes, from weiner dogs, to hound mixes. I love all pets, but I'd say my favorite type of dogs are pugs because I find them extremely cute. I currently do gig work for my income. I mostly do instacart from about noon until 10pm most days. I feel like Doing gig work would make me more flexible to take care of pets vs somone with a 9-5 job. I can't offer boarding because my one dog is weird about other animals sometimes. However, id be more than happy to dog sit for days that you are out of town, or simply go over and let the dogs out to go potty if you didn't need someone to stay over. I can come over to your house to give your dog food/water, as well as let them out for potty breaks on a visit. I can also stay overnight if you need that as well.

About: I've been around animals since I was very young and love all of them. They are part of my family and will be treated as such while they're with me. I enjoy going on walks and keeping pets happy and entertained. I believe it's very important to know your fur babies will be in great hands when boarding with me. My beloved dog Mario is no longer with me; he lived for 13 wonderful years and was the best dog anyone could ask for. I haven't been able to get another one since then. Watching and caring for other pets makes me happy and brings me joy. I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week. Working from Home is a blessing and has given me the flexibility to care for others pets. I do not have a fenced yard, but I live in a development that gives me plenty of opportunities to go for walks. As long as they come with a leash we will be walking.
About: I’ve always loved animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’m patient, reliable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I pay close attention to instructions, communicate regularly with updates and photos, and make sure every pet receives the care and attention they deserve. I work entirely from home, which gives me a highly flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. I can easily accommodate potty breaks, mid-day walks, and constant companionship throughout the week. My weekends are completely open for extended playtime, boarding, or overnight house sitting. When watching pets in your home, safety and respect for your space are my top priorities. I stick strictly to your established routines, double-check that all doors and gates are secure before and after walks, and keep in constant contact with daily photo updates to give you complete peace of mind. My home is a cozy, pet-friendly space where your dog's safety is my number one priority. While I do not have a fenced yard, I always keep dogs securely leashed during all outdoor bathroom breaks and walks. I strictly follow your feeding routines and provide constant supervision to keep them safe and happy.
“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Hayley was so easy to work with and took great care of our dog! She provided plenty of updates and pictures throughout the stay! Our dog and hers got along perfectly. We will absolutely be using Hayley's services again in the future!”
“Megan was wonderful. She treated Louie like her own family pet. I felt comfortable and confident that he was happy and well care of better than well. She communicated with me and made the idea of leaving my boy for so many days less stressful.”
“Rachel was great, she made it convenient for me to drop my dog off for boarding, and when I picked him Up he jumped over to Rachel and gave her a big hug, I think he wanted to stay with her, he might like her more than me!!”
“I think Duffie had a great time! He enjoys being one of the pack and Tara and Peter were good enough to send me some photos throughout his stay. I come to the Cleveland area once a year and I’ll definitely be boarding with them again.”
“Kyle is absolutely amazing! I’ve had some horrible Rover experiences so I was very anxious about using it again, but Kyle has dispelled all of that. My girls literally LOVED him from the moment they met him which is wild because my dogs don’t ever warm up that quickly! Kyle has helped me out with last minute care a couple of times now and I’m so grateful. He takes them on walks and sends TONS of videos and pictures. I can tell he truly loves dogs and caring for them, which is all that I want in a sitter. 100/10 recommend. I will always use him!❤️”
“Maria was absolutely amazing! It is evident that she has a great love for animals. She took excellent care of my fur babies while they were with her, including taking them for walks and making sure they got the proper exercise needed. She kept me updated with messages and pictures. This will be my go to Dog Sitter. ❤️”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages since I was 18 years old. I had an elder dog that I had to put down recently and I love them so much! Happy to help with any medications or injections that are needed. Just would need a refresher in the injections. If you have any questions or would like to know more about me and my family please don't hesitate to ask. I am available all day most days. I am home 24/7. Outside of just running errands. I have 1 dog and 1 cat that I already take care of daily. So adding on a couple more doesn't hurt. Your pets have free range of the house as long as they are well mannered. My backyard is fenced with a 6ft privacy fence. My cat and dog are both on vectra for flea treatment. They are welcome anywhere in my house.
“So happy I found Karma on here to watch my pup while I'm away! After spending 2 whole weeks struggling to find a sitter that was willing and able to take in a large, unfixed, hyper pitbull on short notice I got a response from Karma and instantly had a good feeling that this one might work out. And work out it did! She was very professional and answered all my questions and concerns promptly. Before meeting Karma I had almost given up hope of finding someone that would not only be able to handle but also appreciate my fur baby and give him lots of love while I was away...I was getting frustrated with time wasted on meeting sitters that didn't read my bio thoroughly and were not knowledgeable or vigilant enough to take on a challenging pup like mine. Then Karma confidently messaged me and convinced me that she was up for the job and that setting up a meet and greet with her would be worth my while. As soon as I met her I knew she was the right fit for Zeus. She was so knowledgeable and her experience and expertise were obvious from the get go. Her cool, calm and collected demeanor was a breath of fresh air after so many failed encounters that had left both my pup and I feeling quite anxious. It was such a relief to see Zeus warm right up to Karma and make himself at home at her house; where it was apparent that caring for pups is a full-time job. You can tell this isn't just a side hustle, but both a priority and a passion for her. It was such a relief to finally be able to leave town to handle a family emergency knowing that my fur baby is in good hands with a sitter that is well equipped to handle anything pup-related. She even has given me (a first-time dog mom) some great advice as far as training and health concerns. So far she has kept in touch with consistent updates as to how Zeus is adjusting and plenty of pics and vids. If you are looking for a sitter who will put your mind at ease that your pup will be under expert care and whatever issues or concerns may come up she can be trusted to handle it promptly and professionally, Karma should be at the top of the list! This is the first time I have been able to leave my fur baby with someone and have complete peace of mind knowing that he is in just as good (if not better) hands than mine! So thankful for her saving the day and enthusiastically taking on a commitment to board Zeus for an extended period of time on such short notice!”
“Colleen was a great match for our 8 month old Bernese! She was able to manage his puppy energy while having other dogs and sent daily updates while we were away! Would definitely trust Bogey to be with Colleen again ◡̈”
“When my girls are with Katie I know they are safe, happy, and healthy! They play and cuddle like true champions. I’m so pleased with Katie. Couldn’t be more thankful!”
“Kaitlynn you as great with Noland. I could tell she took great care of him because he was very happy when I got him back. She is very accommodating. She sent lots of pics and updates. Thank you again!”
