“Josephine is always our go to for our pets needs. I was so afraid leaving my “kids” with anyone, and if we have to go out of town I won’t leave them with anyone else. Our pups love Josephine and she clearly loves them. She makes us feel comfortable about being away and is a great communicator. Very grateful to have found her.”
“Customers for life! Your kids are treated like their kids, always! We absolutely loved the adorable pet cottage, the amazing farm, and the extra personalized enrichment for our Bilbo!! Brian and Erica went above and beyond for our baby -as always!! We always recommend them to our family and friends - who have also become long time repeat customers because of their care, the peaceful space, ability to also do in-home pet care, and provide so much more one on one time than other pet care providers and boarding facilities!!”
“Sherri sent lots of photos of our golden having the best time with her pups and went out of her way to trim him “grinch paws” without us asking. We will definitely be sending our golden to her next time we are out of town!”
“Genella was wonderful keeping our dog. He is old and blind, so he isn’t the easiest to take care of. She kept us informed, and we really appreciated her kindness and willingness to take care of him.”
“I am so glad to have found Metinee and David through Rover! We received daily updates with photos and Romy looked comfortable and happy in each update. She also got to go on daily walks and play with their neighbors dogs while there. There are no other pets in the house which was a big plus for our girl who loves getting all the attention. Definitely will use them again!”
“Kevin and Delinda provided wonderful peace of mind while caring for Olivia. They sent frequent pictures and updates throughout the day, which made it so easy to know she was happy and well cared for. Olivia received plenty of walks, attention, and love during her stay. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they watch, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Olivia again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Lynn is always good with our girl. Our dog is not around a lot of people so it takes her awhile to warm up to people but I always feel comfortable when leaving her with Lynn.”
“We left our two dogs (Chihuahua & French Bulldog), with April, her family and her own dog this past weekend, and we couldn't be happier. We did a meet and greet ahead of the stay, and our boys explored and got to meet everyone. April provided a wonderful, welcoming environment. She communicated well throughout the weekend and sent some snaps, putting our minds at ease. April noted she paid special attention when the weather was warmer outside not to let our frenchie play outside too long. (Which is always a plus knowing someone is giving breed-specific attention with a frenchie) It’s clear they were well-cared for and entertained the entire stay. It’s such a relief to know our boys were in such good hands and had so much fun. We will definitely be booking with April again!”
“Lawrene did wonderful boarding my dog for 5 days over Thanksgiving week. Lawrene was kind and responsive. I received daily updates and pictures. I will recommend to family and friends.”
“My Thor had a good time with Mrs Regina and Ted. He’s a little Maltese so I think he had to warm up to to larger dogs but he finally came around but he definitely loved snuggling with Regina and Ted. They kept me updated with pictures and made me feel connected to my baby on his first visit. I would definitely recommend and rebook”
“So glad we boarded our dogs and cat with them. They were amazing sitters! They provided us with updates, including pictures and videos, which were greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for the care they provided, making our girls feel like part of their family. We will definitely choose them again if the need for sitters arises in the future!”
“Kimberly and her family were great with Bruno. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that he was in good hands. She sent us pictures every day and let us know what he was doing. We will definitely leave him there again!”

About: As a dedicated cat caretaker with a veterinary assistant background, I offer more than just feeding and playtime—I provide expert, attentive care tailored to your feline’s unique needs. From shy kitties to senior cats, your pet will be in calm, capable, and loving hands.
“Shelby was absolutely great. My cat's don't like too many people but they liked Shelby. She even sent pictures of her petting them as proof, lol. I am very pleased with the care that Shelby provided and will reach back out to her for all our cat-sitting needs in the future.”
About: I grew up in a dog grooming shop, as well as on a farm. I have taken extensive behavioral courses as well as pet cpr courses. Whatever pet you may have, I can almost guarantee I’ve had experience with! From dogs and cats, to reptiles and birds, as well as many livestock, I’ve got you covered! Big and small, I love them all! So if experience is what you’re searching for, I’ll be happy to get your “paw” of approval. I work a full time job in the automotive industry to advance my career, but cannot forget where I came from. I love animals, and couldn’t see myself not working with them. 8 AM-5 PM I work my day job, and typically do stop ins before my shift, right after, and a third time in the late evening, but will soon have the opportunity to be more flexible! Safety is my number one concern, as most pet parents. Doors are ALWAYS shut and double checked, fences are always checked as well. I have never ever had an accident occur on my watch, and don’t plan on it happening any time soon.
“My Maggie loved it when Karen came to see her and misses her since Karen moved away. I love how Karen loved my pup and took such good care of her. She also took such care for me as a pet parent also!!! She would throw any messed up bedding into the wash. Wow!!! We truly miss her!!!!”
“She did such a great job checking in on my cats! I could tell they were well cared for and comfortable while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Thank you Kylie, you came over last minute and were a lifesaver helping me with Winnie while I’m on vacation! She was easy to work with and had great communication. The pictures and videos you sent eased my mind, and it’s easy to tell Winnie clearly loved you. I will absolutely be booking you again - so glad I’ve finally found a stable sitter for my baby for the future. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Will highly recommend her professional service to others. Thanks again!”

“Brian was great from the jump, he was very professional, understanding and seemed to have amazing patience with our 90lb hyperactive lab Brody. He was very attentive and provided several updates through out the day with pictures. 10/10 very highly recommend, very greatful to have come across his profile and appreciate him and his wife’s services, We will definitely be booking again!”
“Gabriel was an absolute lifesaver! We were visiting from out of town and hit a major snag when our hotel backed out of a promised late checkout. Gabriel stepped in last minute on a holiday weekend without hesitation. From the very beginning, he was incredibly kind and patient with my dog, Maggie, who is usually very skittish around strangers. He went above and beyond, taking her for a walk during the few hours he watched her, and sent frequent updates and photos that completely eased my mind. Gabriel is truly a kind soul, and I cannot thank him enough. If we are ever back in Oklahoma, he will absolutely be our go-to sitter! Highly recommend!”
“My dogs had a great time and came home exhausted! Josie has a billion great reviews because she’s great, her energy is so calm and sweet. She’s so easy going and truly loves the pups. We will be using her again! Thank you!”
“Genella was great with our dog Mica! She was incredibly kind and pleasant to speak with. We are so thankful to her for being able to welcome our girl into her home for the time needed! I highly recommend her. We will book again!”
“Fudge had an absolute blast! I would recommend Jamey to anyone, I loved getting all the updates and hearing about his day when picked up. He also was very tired when coming home which only shows just how much fun he had!”
About: Hello dog parents! We know how it feels to go on vacation and worry about where to leave your dog. Rest assured that we will take great care of your pet so please don't worry and enjoy your vacation !!! We are a dog loving family that live in a single family house with our very friendly Golden doodle girl. We live in a 1 acre lot so rest assure, your pups will have plenty of space to roam around I work from home so I get to spend all day with your dog; our daily routines vary between, playing at local dog parks, local trails or walking around our neighborhood. Once the kids get back from school they will play non-stop, snuggle and tend to all our guest dogs. Rest assured our home is a wonderful place to raise our puppy and care for other canine pals. Why we love dog sitting My wife and myself are both animal lovers and grew up with dogs. Most of our adult lives we either lived or cared for other people's pets. I've owned all types of breeds for more than 15 years. My history ranges from small dogs like yorkies and french poodles, to bigger sizes like alaskan malmute and shepherds. Our kids are picking up after our love to dogs and really enjoy helping us with taking care of pups. Wether it's feeding them, walking them or just snuggling, they will take care of your pups and make them feel part of our family! About our space We have a very large 1 acre fenced in back yard where pups are free to explore, play and roam around as they please during the day. We have plenty of space indoors for your pet to sleep either on a comfy dog bed, on a cool floor, on fluffy carpet, or a private dog crate; all dogs will sleep indoors. My experience administering medication Yes, both oral or injected. *Please Note: We ask for all DROP OFFs be between 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm and all PICK UP's be between 9:00 am - 11:00 am. Please plan accordingly. This may require you to request an extra day to fit these hours. Thank you.* **We also ask for your dog to be housebroken before they can stay with us.** Usually we go for a long walk around the neighborhood in the morning and then go to one in the early evening. We usually let the dogs roam around the yard for a few hours but they are also welcome to stay indoors if they prefer. We have a one acre fenced in yard where your pupss are free to roam around. We leave in a gated community with a nice path along the lake where we take our daiily walks. I work from home and are constantly looking after the pups needs.
About: I specialize in accepting single boardings at my home as well as short and long stays in your home. I stay day and night thru out. I’m a full-time professional sitter, and when I commit to your pets and your home, I’m all in. I don’t just swing by to scoop food and dash — I stay overnight, follow your routines, and make sure your pets feel calm, safe, and genuinely cared for the entire time you’re away. They get love, attention, and consistency — and you get real peace of mind. This isn’t a gig to me. It’s what I do. And I do it with heart. I have plenty of experience with large breeds — the kind that some sitters might shy away from. I don’t breed discriminate, and I know that “big” doesn’t mean “bad.” In fact, some of my most loyal cuddle buddies have outweighed me! I absolutely adore the pitties, rotties, and other gentle giants — they’ve got big heads, big hearts, and a soft spot in mine. That said, I do prioritize safety — for everyone involved. I’m confident, calm, and respectful in my approach, and I appreciate open, honest communication about your pet’s temperament, routines, and needs. I know it’s a big deal to trust someone with your fur babies and your home. I take that trust seriously. I treat your space with care, keep things clean and secure, and most importantly, Your pets will feel seen, safe, and loved. Whether your dog needs someone to curl up with at night or your cat needs their routine followed to the letter, I’m here for it. I’ll meet them where they are — playful, shy, anxious, spoiled, senior, or sassy. My goal is simple: when you walk back through that door, your pets are relaxed, happy, and barely noticed you left. I dedicate my entire schedule to caring for animals, which means your pet gets my full attention, flexibility, and consistent care. Being in their familiar space dramatically reduces the stress and trauma that new surroundings can trigger. I look at it like their very own staycation! My goal is to keep your pets in their normal routine while focusing on safe, stimulating and loving care. All the while providing you with peace of mind. I take great pride in my integrity — it’s non-negotiable. Doing the right thing, even when no one’s watching, isn’t just a value; it’s how I operate every day. You, your babies, and your home deserve nothing less than my full commitment and care.
About: We currently have a 15 year old Yorkie and 2 rescues which we love, and we have kept friends and family's dogs over the years. We have a fenced yard and garden in back. I'm retired so I'm around most of the time. Sometimes I'm gone for a few hours running errands or going shopping for my business., or a music rehearsal. We live walking distance from the University of Oklahoma so we can keep your fur baby on game day! I have a fenced yard and garden, and 3 small dogs to keep your baby company. We have kept friends and family's dogs and they all get along with the others.
“Austin was truly amazing! This was my first time ever leaving my baby Hades anywhere and Austin made sure to keep me informed and he was very communicative! He eased my nervousness and took such good care of Hades! if you need a sitter for your baby I definitely recommend Austin! He will be the only sitter I will ever use! Thank you again Austin so much hades had such a blast!”
About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog feels the most comfortable, loved, and most importantly safe in the short time I have them. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm an out of state college student who has three larger dog breeds at home that I miss so much. And I’ve grown up around dogs all my life so making pups as happy as I can and taking care of them just come second nature for me! Although I've been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far-reaching than that. I recently have over 2 years of volunteering experience at a no-kill animal shelter called “City of Norman Animal Welfare” and I’m hoping to take my lived experience and activism with animals into a summer job. I've worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally. I've also been trained in Pet First Aid and am experienced administering medication. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup, their needs, and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs!! like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having together <3 Note: Might do cats in the future, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve grown allergic so Benadryl is a must. I am currently working an internship at a museum with very flexable hours for the summer giving me lots of time to play and walk your pups! With the internship I just need to work 12 hours a week but can come and go from the museum as I like and can take an hour off for lunch, work only 2 days a week, only work early mornings, it is truely amazing having such an independent schedule, which is why I thought dog sitting & walking would be a great idea. Would love to do boarding/doggy daycare, like I said in my bio, I miss my dogs at home so much so giving some weekend love to yours won’t be a problem. But I do live in an apartment and having any animal for longer than a week without having them registered with the building would be against my lease, so I cannot do super long sleepovers :( My entire apartment complex is fenced in but because theres other people they would be on a leash, but theres PLENTY of grass to go potty and frolic. We also have a large yard in the center of the apartment complex where they can run and stretch their legs off leash. While all dogs are outside on or off leash they will NEVER leave my sight regardless of have a history of running away or not. Love playing fetch with dogs and rewarding good behavoir with lots of treats. (Dietary concerns considered) I drive a toyota highlander SUV with plenty of space for transporting your pups and making sure they’re secure and totally safe. Just like watching your dogs transporting them should be done with the utmost care and I have a squeaky clean drivng record. I currently do not have a crate at my apartment, but dogs generally feel most comfortable in their own bedding especially in a new unfamilar environment, if you’d allow me to bring it from your home and return it with your pet. There’s plenty of space in the apartment, but I’d only sit about three large dogs at a time to allow plenty of playtime space or incase they get the zoomies. Dog beds or crates can be in the livingroom or my bedroom wherever your pet is most comfortable sleeping. I am also comfortable washing dogs after having multiple sessions with them to gauge temperment. A lot of dogs get anxious with baths and I am more then comfortable handling that and have multiple times in the past, but I do not need to put myself in harms way dealing with aggressive untrained dogs. Nonetheless I understand that for a lot of middle aged dog parents bathing dogs is tedious and can hurt your back, so I am happy to provide a clean pup for an additional tip! (Skin concerns considered with products used)
“Norma and her family are beyond 5 stars. We needed a sitter for our young puppy and it was our first time to leave her with someone. We felt like new parents leaving their child, but she put our minds at ease by sending pictures of our baby throughout the stay.”
“I have taken my dog to boarders in the past. She wasn't mistreated through these services, but, I also didn't feel the special attention that we got with Julie. Julie was an absolute delight for both my dog and myself. She notified me at intervals on how my dog was doing through using both pictures and short videos. She was extremely easy to work with from first point of contact to pick up. I will definitely use her services again if/when needed.”
About: I have always had pets growing up. Animals are such sweet souls that can be so misunderstood. Let me love, and take care of your pet, while promising safety and health! I am currently staying at home with my daughter while my son is in school during the day! This is the perfect way for me to make some extra money while being able to still be a mom. I do not have any pets in my home so safety is my number one priority. I have a fenced backyard and am ready to play with your fur baby!
“Vivian was incredible. She was super welcoming and spoke with us before to explain she has a dog and the disposition of her dog. Sasha loved her and would highly recommend her! Best experience 100%”
About: I've consistently taken care of animals for over 30 years. Feeding, caring, loving and training dogs for friends, family and neighbors has been an honor and a pleasure. I especially love senior dogs and am skilled at training puppies. I would love the opportunity to exercise your dog in solo or group sessions! I frequently visit local hiking trails and dog parks, so if your pet likes adventure then I can accommodate. Multiple dogs welcome! I am reliable, safety conscious and available for a free meet and greet so you can judge for yourself! Just send me a message to coordinate a convenient time. My energetic 6 year old daughter is home on Thursdays through Sunday morning. I am available for my services 7 days a week! This is my sole focus, so I am very available for your pet's needs. I have a large fenced yard with one dog to keep your pet company. She is a cheerful and energetic friend to all. I will send photos and updates and provide GPS location for our walks and adventures.
“Alexander is our go to for doggy daycare. He is great with my dogs and takes such special care of them. They come home from each stay exhausted from playing their hearts out. It’s obvious that they stay active and engaged while in his care. He always keeps me updated and responds quickly. We are lucky to have him!”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals since I was 10 years old. I worked on my aunt’s ranch where I cared for a variety of animals including dogs and cats. I also have a lot of experience with dogs since I showed my dog in 4H and won several awards. I love animals of all shapes and sizes so I’m sure I will be a perfect fit for your furry friend. I care for my pets every morning and every night. During three of the weekdays, I have class but I return home right after to spend time with them and get them exercise. I carry dog treats with me when doing visits to help the dogs feel more comfortable. I also enjoy taking long walks with dogs to keep them entertained. I am particularly fond of cats, as they are my favorite animal. I have four cats myself, and I think cats are truly precious. I love taking care of animals. My apartment complex features a significant amount of green space and a dog park. In my apartment, there are dog toys, cat toys, cat trees, and three different pet water fountains.
“Kristen was great with my 2 dogs. She came by for a meet and greet with them prior to me needing her and both of my dogs liked her. Even my anxious, afraid of everything and everyone rescued dog warmed up to her. Eventually on the day she came by to walk them, my problem child didn’t exactly cooperate and refused to go for a walk. But Kristen did walk my male dog and kept me updated on his walk as well on how she was trying to walk my problem child, but she was not giving in. She sent me pictures of both and I appreciated that.”
About: I've worked and rescued dogs since I was a child. I understand a dogs need for routine, feeding schedules, and walking schedules. I've worked with multiple dogs who have different schedules or needs. I've worked with dogs who have been abused and have to avoid certain triggers (other dogs, construction work, certain genders). I've walked dogs who refuse to potty unless you walk and stop at certain favorite spots. No request is too big or too large. I'm currently back in school for health information technology. I'm a virtual student with flexibility anytime. I'm an open book. If you have any questions just ask. In my clients home I aim to keep things as consistent as possible. The pet is already missing their mom or dad. Everything else should be as routine as possible.
About: Trust the best with your pets! I have had pets since I was in the womb. Taking care of pets is my passion! I speak canine and would love to get to know your furry friend! I have been pet sitting for my neighbors and family friends for five years now and I am in LOVE with it. I am able to fulfill special requests to care for your pets in the best way possible.

I can't wait to meet your furry friends and build everlasting relationships with them and their owners.
About: I’m a firefighter, lifelong dog lover, and avid sports fan with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up in a home that always had four or more dogs, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding their needs, behaviors, and quirks. During high school, I also volunteered for two years at the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter, where I gained valuable experience working with a wide variety of breeds. From tiny 5-pound Chihuahuas with big personalities to gentle 150-pound Akitas, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. I take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each dog. You can count on me to treat your dog like family keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m a firefighter, and my schedule is very open,I only work Sundays and Mondays, plus one Saturday night each month.

I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely.

Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in a safe, clean, and loving environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you can see how your best friend is doing while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, and I strive to make every dog feel happy, secure, and loved until you’re back home.

I have experience administer medications (i.e. insulin to a feline with a needle syringe), bathing animals, ear cleaning, walking, and basic care practices. I have lived around animals my entire life, and cared for many varying sizes and ages. I believe individualized care is important for each animal! Knowing what they like, how they act, and how to care for them individually is important in order to provide the best outcomes possible. I have a lot of love and patience with animals, and will update you consistently in order to share that love and relief.
About: I have professional experience working in a pet care facility, where I cared for dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. In addition to my hands-on experience, I have completed pet care certifications that have strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, safety, and best care practices. I am comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, and following specialized care instructions. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for every pet while giving owners peace of mind through regular updates and photos. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, exercise, medication, playtime, or extra companionship, I can accommodate their needs. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my highest priorities. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under supervision. I also have friendly, well-socialized pets that can provide companionship for dogs who enjoy social interaction. My professional pet care experience, certifications, and medication administration experience allow me to confidently care for pets with a variety of needs. Every pet receives individualized attention, a clean and secure environment, plenty of affection, and regular updates so you always know how they’re doing during their stay.

About: I’ve been caring for pets continuously since I was 8 years old — that’s over 50 years of hands-on experience. Growing up on a farm gave me a deep and lasting connection with animals from an early age. I learned responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing a safe, loving environment for every creature in my care. Over the years, I’ve also taken in many strays, giving them food, shelter, and the attention they desperately needed until they found their forever homes. This lifelong bond with animals has given me tremendous empathy for family pets and the people who love them. I understand how much your pet means to you and how important it is for them to feel secure, comfortable, and genuinely cared for when you’re away. Whether it’s a dog, cat, or another beloved companion, I treat every pet with the same kindness and respect I would want for my own. Today, my own dog serves as my daily assistant and constant companion. He keeps me active, grounded, and reminds me every day of the special relationship we share with our animals. This close, everyday connection helps me bring real understanding and patience to the pets I care for. I’ve cared for animals with many different personalities — from easygoing to more independent or strong-willed — and I always adapt my approach to meet their individual needs. Feeding, daily care, playtime, and health monitoring have all been part of my routine for decades. I’ve learned how to create consistent schedules, provide mental and physical enrichment, and make sure every pet feels like part of the family. My goal is always the same: to give your pet the same level of love, attention, and security they receive at home. Caring for pets is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. I currently share my home with a dog and two cats, so I understand the importance of structure, attention, and love in keeping animals happy and healthy. I maintain a consistent feeding schedule for all my pets. Meals are served at the same times each day, which helps them feel secure and supports good digestion. I’m especially attentive to individual dietary needs — for example, my dog is currently on a carefully managed elimination diet, so I prepare and portion his meals with extra care while still keeping the cats on their own appropriate feeding routine. I also make sure my pets get plenty of activity and engagement throughout the day. My dog gets regular walks that give him both physical exercise and mental stimulation. With my two cats, I incorporate interactive play sessions using wand toys, laser pointers, and puzzle feeders to keep them active and mentally sharp. These daily activities help prevent boredom and strengthen the bond I share with each of them. Above all, I show kindness through positive reinforcement. I use praise, gentle encouragement, and rewards to build trust and confidence. Whether it’s rewarding my dog for calm behavior on walks or praising one of my cats for using their scratching post instead of the furniture, I focus on reinforcing good behavior in a loving, patient way. This approach helps pets feel safe and happy, and it’s the same method I use when caring for other people’s pets. Because I live this routine every day with my own dog and cats, I bring real, practical experience to every pet I care for on Rover. Safety and trust are the foundation of the care I provide. Whether I’m doing an overnight pet sitting stay, taking a dog for a walk, or doing a quick drop-in visit, I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own dog and two cats. My goal is always for your pet to feel secure, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Building Trust from the First Meeting I believe trust starts with a calm, respectful introduction. I take time to meet your pet on their terms — letting them approach me first, using a gentle voice, and allowing them to get comfortable at their own pace. I pay close attention to their body language and personality so I can adjust my approach to what makes them feel safe. Pet Sitting (Overnight or Extended Care) When staying in your home, I maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes consistent feeding times, regular potty breaks, and familiar play or rest periods. I keep doors, gates, and windows secure at all times and never leave your pet unsupervised in unfamiliar situations. I also provide daily updates with photos and notes so you can see your pet is happy and safe while you’re away. Pet Activity & Walks Safety is my top priority during walks and outdoor activities. I always use a secure leash and harness (or the equipment you prefer) and remain attentive to the environment — watching for other dogs, traffic, wildlife, or anything that could startle your pet. I adjust the pace and length of the walk to your pet’s energy level and fitness. For dogs who need extra structure, I use positive reinforcement to encourage calm, polite behavior on the leash. Drop-In Visits During drop-in visits, I focus on providing everything your pet needs in the time I’m there — fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, medication if required, and some quality interaction or playtime. I always double-check that your pet is secure before I leave (doors locked, pets in safe areas) and send you a visit report with photos so you know exactly how your pet is doing. General Safety Practices I Follow I carefully follow all of your instructions regarding food, medication, routines, and any special needs. I keep emergency vet information and your contact details easily accessible at all times. I monitor your pet closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and will contact you immediately if anything seems off. I use positive reinforcement and patience to help even shy, anxious, or strong-willed pets feel relaxed and secure in my care. Because I live with pets every day, I understand how important these small details are. My experience has taught me that when pets feel safe and trusted, they’re happier — and their owners can relax knowing their beloved companions are in good hands.

About: I currently am a full time dog trainer and business owner, which allows me lots of flexibility to spend with your pups.

About: I grew up on a small farm with hands on training on how to properly care for horses, geese, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, lizards and even my current pet a marmoset monkey! Friends and family have always counted and trusted in me to be there when they can not. I take pride in my ability to get to know and understand any and all pets. I know they are not simply pets, but a large part of families households. I am a current part time employee with ample time to care and nurture for your pet. Available most days, nights and weekends. Flexible schedule. I currently do not provide services in my home since I am in an apartment complex. Instead, I will be able to come to your home and take care of your pets in their own environment and fit into the routine they're used to in the comfort of your own home.

“Josephine is always our go to for our pets needs. I was so afraid leaving my “kids” with anyone, and if we have to go out of town I won’t leave them with anyone else. Our pups love Josephine and she clearly loves them. She makes us feel comfortable about being away and is a great communicator. Very grateful to have found her.”
“Customers for life! Your kids are treated like their kids, always! We absolutely loved the adorable pet cottage, the amazing farm, and the extra personalized enrichment for our Bilbo!! Brian and Erica went above and beyond for our baby -as always!! We always recommend them to our family and friends - who have also become long time repeat customers because of their care, the peaceful space, ability to also do in-home pet care, and provide so much more one on one time than other pet care providers and boarding facilities!!”
“Sherri sent lots of photos of our golden having the best time with her pups and went out of her way to trim him “grinch paws” without us asking. We will definitely be sending our golden to her next time we are out of town!”
“Genella was wonderful keeping our dog. He is old and blind, so he isn’t the easiest to take care of. She kept us informed, and we really appreciated her kindness and willingness to take care of him.”
“Kevin and Delinda provided wonderful peace of mind while caring for Olivia. They sent frequent pictures and updates throughout the day, which made it so easy to know she was happy and well cared for. Olivia received plenty of walks, attention, and love during her stay. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they watch, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Olivia again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Lynn is always good with our girl. Our dog is not around a lot of people so it takes her awhile to warm up to people but I always feel comfortable when leaving her with Lynn.”
“We left our two dogs (Chihuahua & French Bulldog), with April, her family and her own dog this past weekend, and we couldn't be happier. We did a meet and greet ahead of the stay, and our boys explored and got to meet everyone. April provided a wonderful, welcoming environment. She communicated well throughout the weekend and sent some snaps, putting our minds at ease. April noted she paid special attention when the weather was warmer outside not to let our frenchie play outside too long. (Which is always a plus knowing someone is giving breed-specific attention with a frenchie) It’s clear they were well-cared for and entertained the entire stay. It’s such a relief to know our boys were in such good hands and had so much fun. We will definitely be booking with April again!”
“My Thor had a good time with Mrs Regina and Ted. He’s a little Maltese so I think he had to warm up to to larger dogs but he finally came around but he definitely loved snuggling with Regina and Ted. They kept me updated with pictures and made me feel connected to my baby on his first visit. I would definitely recommend and rebook”
“So glad we boarded our dogs and cat with them. They were amazing sitters! They provided us with updates, including pictures and videos, which were greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for the care they provided, making our girls feel like part of their family. We will definitely choose them again if the need for sitters arises in the future!”
“Kimberly and her family were great with Bruno. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that he was in good hands. She sent us pictures every day and let us know what he was doing. We will definitely leave him there again!”
“Patricio was great! He was always responsive, easy to schedule meetings and drop-offs/pick-ups, and took great care of our dog, Kai. Plus, his dog (Coco) is awesome. She and Kai quickly became two peas in a pod. I can't recommend Patricio highly enough.”
“So glad we found Juliet to care for our GSP. We received daily updates and photos of our dog, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. We will definitely be using her services again!”
