“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!”

“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 ?”

“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.”

“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.”


“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!”

“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 ❤️❤️❤️”

“Kathleen and Nathan took excellent care of our dog. We were passing through the area on our way home from the east coast and needed a place for Dilly to get some exercise and play before we continued our trip. Dilly enjoyed playing in their large, fenced yard and had fun playing with their kids. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Dilly was happy and relaxed and ready to go the next day.”

“Anita was great. We got pictures and updates on how Pepper was doing each day. She is great at communication and did a great job taking care of Pepper. Her kids seem to enjoy having Pepper stay wit them.”

“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.”

“My best friend Bernie… And energetic and very social beagle… spent a lovely six days with Zachary and his dogs. He was sad to go home, which made ME feel kind of bad but at least I know he had a good time! Zachary was an excellent communicator, and offered photos of Bernie during his stay. Large fenced yard.”

“Jenna and her family took very good care of my babies while we were out of town for a week. Although my little male dog gave her a bit of a challenge by peeing on the floor. I feel they were very well taken care of. I Would definitely recommend her and her family to anyone. She communicated daily with pictures. Made me fell very relaxed while out of town.”

“She was awesome and extra attentive since I was sending my cats off to temporary foster and their stay with her. She kept me updated on their interactions and progress in a new environment. She also sent lots of pics and allowed me the opportunity to watch them through camera footage. She was great!”

“Louis was so scared and nervous the 1st day! I was seriously thinking about cutting my trip short and picking him up, but Doug was so patient with him that by the next day Louis was his happy self again. So thankful this was a great experience for Louis!”

“Nathan and Jenna we're great. The dogs got 24/7 attention and love from them, the other dogs and the kids. We'll be called them up again for the next time we need a sitter.”

“My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!”

“Sauddi was AMAZING!!! 10/10 best sitter we have had for Lucy. I have never received as many updates and pictures as I did in the week long stay that she had Lucy. We got close to 200 pictures and a bunch of updates throughout the day. She treated Lucy just like her own and she enjoyed every single moment they had together. Thank you again for taking such good care of Lucy! Whenever we need a sitter again, we will for sure be contacting Sauddi again.”

“My senior pup just got home from a wonderful weekend with Patti! He had the best care and we received regular updates and photos. My dog has vision issues among other senior ailments and needs medication at meals. Patti was so patient and helped him navigate the new space, always making sure he was safe. We felt so comfortable with Igor in Patti’s care and look forward to him visiting her again!”

About: Since I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, attention, supervision, and flexibility throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to provide care, playtime, and plenty of affection. My husband has been around dogs his entire life and has extensive experience raising and caring for them. Together, we're comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. We understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, and we're committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel right at home. We're especially attentive to puppies who need patience, consistency, and frequent supervision, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra comfort, and additional care. Our goal is to treat every dog like part of our family and give them the individual attention they deserve. I currently work from home, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I can provide dedicated spaces for their bed, crate, feeding area, and food and supplies. Since I am home throughout the day, I can maintain consistent routines for feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and cleaning. I also make sure the home is safe and comfortable for pets by keeping medications, chemicals, toxic foods and plants, and small objects out of reach. My pets are an important part of my household, and I am able to provide them with the attention, companionship, and care they need throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and playtime, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m happy to maintain their normal routines and provide plenty of exercise, play, affection, and one-on-one attention. I also understand that pets can feel anxious when their owners are away, so I provide a calm, patient environment and give them time to adjust.

“Our cats love Lexi. This is a cat that never came to a stranger when called. To our surprise, Goldie heard her and came out from the back room, smelled her hand and wanted to be petted. Lexi completes her assignments and I can’t say enough for the kindness she has shown Goldie and Whiskers our cats. I do t have to worry about when Lexi takes care of the cats. We will continue to use her as long as she will let us.”


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! 🐱💕

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. 🐶🐱❤️

“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 ?”

“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.”


“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!”

“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 ❤️❤️❤️”

“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.”

“My best friend Bernie… And energetic and very social beagle… spent a lovely six days with Zachary and his dogs. He was sad to go home, which made ME feel kind of bad but at least I know he had a good time! Zachary was an excellent communicator, and offered photos of Bernie during his stay. Large fenced yard.”

“Jenna and her family took very good care of my babies while we were out of town for a week. Although my little male dog gave her a bit of a challenge by peeing on the floor. I feel they were very well taken care of. I Would definitely recommend her and her family to anyone. She communicated daily with pictures. Made me fell very relaxed while out of town.”

“She was awesome and extra attentive since I was sending my cats off to temporary foster and their stay with her. She kept me updated on their interactions and progress in a new environment. She also sent lots of pics and allowed me the opportunity to watch them through camera footage. She was great!”

“Nathan and Jenna we're great. The dogs got 24/7 attention and love from them, the other dogs and the kids. We'll be called them up again for the next time we need a sitter.”

“Sauddi was AMAZING!!! 10/10 best sitter we have had for Lucy. I have never received as many updates and pictures as I did in the week long stay that she had Lucy. We got close to 200 pictures and a bunch of updates throughout the day. She treated Lucy just like her own and she enjoyed every single moment they had together. Thank you again for taking such good care of Lucy! Whenever we need a sitter again, we will for sure be contacting Sauddi again.”

“My senior pup just got home from a wonderful weekend with Patti! He had the best care and we received regular updates and photos. My dog has vision issues among other senior ailments and needs medication at meals. Patti was so patient and helped him navigate the new space, always making sure he was safe. We felt so comfortable with Igor in Patti’s care and look forward to him visiting her again!”

About: Since I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, attention, supervision, and flexibility throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to provide care, playtime, and plenty of affection. My husband has been around dogs his entire life and has extensive experience raising and caring for them. Together, we're comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. We understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, and we're committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel right at home. We're especially attentive to puppies who need patience, consistency, and frequent supervision, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra comfort, and additional care. Our goal is to treat every dog like part of our family and give them the individual attention they deserve. I currently work from home, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I can provide dedicated spaces for their bed, crate, feeding area, and food and supplies. Since I am home throughout the day, I can maintain consistent routines for feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and cleaning. I also make sure the home is safe and comfortable for pets by keeping medications, chemicals, toxic foods and plants, and small objects out of reach. My pets are an important part of my household, and I am able to provide them with the attention, companionship, and care they need throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and playtime, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m happy to maintain their normal routines and provide plenty of exercise, play, affection, and one-on-one attention. I also understand that pets can feel anxious when their owners are away, so I provide a calm, patient environment and give them time to adjust.
“Karin took great care of our anxious dog, Chester. He seems to have a great time and she took him for great walks. Chester came home happy and tired. Will definitely book with her again.”

“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 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.”

“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.”
“Tom and Tolley and the whole family are great! This was our dog’s third stay (2nd boarding overnight) and we were a little apprehensive initially, because our dog has separation anxiety. Our dog did very well and was very excited to go back. Tom and Tolley were professional, reassuring, caring and receptive to our dogs needs. She was treated like one of the family and had a great time.. received daily updates (text, photo, video) with feedback during her stay. It was a very positive experience overall for us and our dog. It was nice to get away and not worry and feel comfortable that our dog was in good hands and we could trust them to provide and care for her. 100% positive experience.”

“Absolutely amazing, very friendly and amazing with our 2 dogs. She stepped in when a different rover provider could no longer care for our dogs during our vacation. Elysia sent us many pictures and videos and kept us up to date, putting our mind at ease. We highly recommend her and will be booking again!”
