“Daniela is amazing!! We couldn't be happier. She kept in touch with us throughout our pups extended stay, sending pictures and updates - all of which portrayed that she and her husband were almost in as much love with him as we are :) Being a skeptic, I feel that this is always my hesitation with dog boarding/sitters/kennels - but we are 100% confident that she is the real deal. So thankful - will definitely be booking again.”
“Super sweet people and dogs. They have a nice fenced in space and a doggy door! I got several updates with pictures, even with a family emergency, of my boy playing and having a good time. I felt great about leaving my dog with them! I would absolutely recommend and use them again in the future!”
“Bernie had a great time with Jordan. I think Bernie is missing all his new dog friends that he met (especially Leo). I felt very comfortable that he would be well taken care of, so I was able to enjoy my visit with family. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Anika and her family were fantastic! You can tell the dogs got lots of love and attention! She was very flexible with our schedule and was great about giving our aging Golden Retriever her medications. I would highly recommend Anika!”
“Amy took our Great Pyranees for three days. Our GP is a new rescue, so she is not very predictable and still hasn't been to a groomer.... but Amy managed to understand her and love on her. She sent updates and pictures regularly and treated our girl like part of her family. Amy's flexibility was valuable behond words for us, given the circumstances. 100% recommendation 💛💛💛”
“Serena and her family did an excellent job taking care of our 4 month old puppy. She was given lots of attention and walks each day. And the update messages and pictures were a great way of keeping in touch during our first time away from this new member of our family. Thank you for making us feel comfortable with our choice of sitter!”
“Denise & her husband were wonderful with Henry. They gave him lots of love and snuggles, and I could tell when we picked him up that he had been well cared for. Denise will always be our first pick for our boarding needs!”
“Abigail was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and I needed someone last minute and she was great with Huckleberry. She communicated great and sent pictures throughout his visit. He loved it there!”
“My dog loved her stay with Jennifer! After an initial meet-and-greet, my dog was very excited to return and stay for a few days. I will definitely be booking with Jennifer in the future.”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Anyssah! She kept me informed at all time and assured me he was doing well as this was my first time leaving him with someone he didn’t know. She also accommodated to his needs and just made this stay so much easier for us to go through. I will absolutely book her again if needed. Thank you Anyssah!”
“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”
“Eliza has been absolutely wonderful with my dog. She has watched my dog multiple times and has had her over for playtime with her own dogs. Eliza genuinely loves animals, and my dog is always excited to see her. She is reliable, caring, and communicates well, which gives me complete peace of mind whenever my dog is with her. I always know my dog is getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection in a safe environment. I highly recommend Eliza to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter. I’m so grateful to have found her!”

“Lexy has been a sitter for my Cat for many occasions and more upcoming in the remaining year. She provides communication and photos for each visit. Very experienced sitter and service Provider.”
About: I tailor my care to each cat’s personality and routine. I’m comfortable following instructions for medications, special diets, and more detailed needs, and I keep litter boxes and feeding areas clean so their space stays fresh and comfortable. I also let cats warm up to me at their own pace. Whether they want playtime, affection, quiet company, or more personal space, I focus on helping them feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.
“It is such a relief to know that there’s someone I can totally rely on to take care of my cats while I’m gone. Kelsey did a great job with all instructions, communication, and keeping my babies safe.”
“Emma was the bright candle on my Thanksgiving and birthday week! I became suddenly ill and had to find help fast! Emma was available and worked with me at the last minute to secure care for my 4 cats while I recovered. She is very sweet with my kitties as they are very shy. Great job Emma!”
“Angelica was great! My kitties are happy and healthy. She did a good job watching after them and providing a safe comfortable place for them to stay while I was out of town”
“Susan took wonderful care of our 2 kitties and our home. She is very caring and kept us informed of how our kitties were doing during our vacation. We will ask her in the future to pet and house set and I would highly recommend her.”
About: I have been around cats for SO long. I know how to clean the litter, feed them, play, and gain their trust with enough time. Cats are so great because they come with so many different personalities in my experience. Some hate people, some love people and some are just plain sassy. Either way, I will make it my mission to love them as my own.
“Anna did an excellent job house sitting and taking care of our cat for a week. She kept us updated everyday with a few pics which we loved. We came back to a clean house and happy kitty! Highly recommend booking Anna if you don’t want to stress about your house and pet while you are away :)”
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for cats and love getting to know each cat’s unique personality. I’m comfortable caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and independent, or extra cuddly. I’m experienced with the everyday care cats need, including feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable following specific feeding routines and care instructions to help keep your cat comfortable while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾❤️
About: We had a family dog from the time I was a toddler. The first dog was a Doberman, then the next family dog was a Springer Spaniel. My family also volunteered as puppy raisers with Guide Dogs for the Blind and we raised 5 guide dog puppies. One flunked out of guide dog school and came back to live with us until she was 13. Later, I volunteered with Guiding Eyes for the Blind and helped puppy raisers with their new puppies, and weekly helped teach the classes from 12 weeks when the puppies first arrive to their puppy raiser homes, up to 18 months when they leave their puppy raisers the puppies get trained before they go back in for their formal under harness training for their blind person. All 9 years of work there we used positive reinforcement with the dogs and helped the puppy raisers. I also attended some classes with Guiding Eyes on dog body language. I also have my own rescue dog who I adopted during that time and he has had positive reinforcement training since I adopted him. I now assist owners with training or behavioral needs they may have for their dogs to make the owners and the dogs happier and more peaceful living. I also have added a list of other services, from boarding in my home, to house sitting in yours, dog walking, drop in visits, or daycare in my house. I am working from home and available basically all the time, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and over weekends as well. Days: M, T, W, T, F, S, S I don’t have kids or cats. Just me and my one 10 year old personal dog are in the house. I live in a condo and don’t have a backyard, but I have always walked my dog in the neighborhood and gone to hike at Lake Chabot which is only a 12 minute drive or at Oakland hills parks.

“Linda was so great, accommodating us with our last-minute booking and so flexible with our schedule! Her dog Daphne kept our dog with separation anxiety company so she didn't cry during her stay. Her place is also great with nice indoor and outdoor space that could easily accommodate any pup. Would highly recommend!”
About: I have had a love for all animals since I was a little girl. I have either had a pet to care for or have been watching friends pets whenever the opportunity arises. I am a stay at home mom. I am available to check in on animals throughout the day or even take them for a walk! I like to make sure your pet is happy and taken care of whenever you are away. I want to make sure they have what they need.
“Anika is great! She took excellent care of my dog Bear, who can have a little separation anxiety. She is a good communicator and sent lots of pictures during the day. Bear obviously had a great time playing with the other dogs and came home happy and exhausted from playing in her beautiful big yard. Anika just has a great way with all the dogs. You can tell she loves and cares for them like they are her own.”
“Zippee just loved them and had a blast. The two of them are just lovely and did a great job! We will definitely use them again! Great experience. Thank you!”
About: I grew up around all kinds of animals and even had up to 7 dogs at one point in my childhood home! I’ve always loved having pets and I even used to pet sit for neighbors frequently. I’m currently not working so I’m able to pet sit Monday-Sunday! I’m open to following specific routines that you have for your pet. I’m also available to do overnights if needed :) I do have a fenced in yard where I can supervise your pet. I currently have no personal pets of my own. I love to maintain their schedule as I know it could be hard for your pet to be in a new environment.
About: I love dogs, big or small i Have adopted many older dogs, and raised a few from puppy stage. Love them all. I spoil them I am retired, home alot working in my yard and garden. I love dogs and will spoil them. I’m Available weekends with plenty of notice I have a fenced yard, and currently have a 16 yr old medium dog. Can crate your dog if needed or what theyre used to
“I needed someone last minute for a roadtrip drive through and she accommodated! I felt comfortable the moment I met her and so did Theo (my child-dog). She sent me pictures, messages and reassurance when I needed it. I will contact her 100% when I return.”
About: I adopted my dog from a rescue 13 years ago and have fostered (in my home) over 50 dogs since then. My dogs( I have two medium sized dogs) (and any fosters or fur friends we have over) enjoy frequent walks, hikes, and dog park trips. My pups (and the pups that were allowed to), sleep in the bed with me and get maximum cuddle and play time! I myself stay pretty active so enjoy the walk time. I’m available early mornings, nights and weekends. My dogs are not kenneled. I have always grown up with a family dog and love having them around. I have had up to four dogs in my home at one time and 2 of those were Mastiffs!!! I started walking pups on another app and gained a few regular clients of my own! I’m back to working a full time job during the day (8-5 type). I prioritize being home as much as I can when I have fur baby guests. I come home during my lunch breaks to let the dogs out. I live in an apartment but we have frequent walks. I have my two pups to keep yours company. My dogs are not crated but it’s okay if yours are. I allow any and all fur babies to sleep in my room and on the bed if they want.
About: My background in animal care extends well beyond traditional pet sitting. I completed extensive veterinary technology education while working full-time in a large, multi-department veterinary hospital, gaining years of hands-on experience with animals ranging from healthy puppies and routine-care patients to senior, hospitalized, post-op, and medically complex dogs. My subsequent transition into “human” healthcare has further strengthened the attention to detail and standard of care that I bring to every animal entrusted to me. My veterinary experience provided a comprehensive foundation in safe animal handling, canine behavior/temperament recognition, medication administration, medical-condition awareness, post-op care, and the identification of subtle changes that may indicate pain, anxiety, or physical distress. I am comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and overall presentation that may warrant closer observation or communication with a pet-parent. I am comfortable caring for dogs across all ages, sizes, and levels of need, including puppies, senior dogs, animals requiring additional behavioral consideration, and pets with established medical or mobility needs. My experience includes oral and injectable medication administration, incision and wound care, mobility assistance, post-operative monitoring, and incontinence-related care. Whether providing a walk, drop-in visit, extended sitting, or boarding, I approach pet care with the same principles that have guided my professional healthcare experience: attentive observation, appropriate precautions, consistency, clear communication, and respect for individualized care requirements. My goal is not simply to supervise a pet while an owner is away, but to provide knowledgeable, responsible care while maintaining the routine, safety, and level of attention each individual animal requires. I recently completed my Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care and am currently preparing for my board examinations, which allows me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be home much of the time. At present, I have considerable availability for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and other pet-care needs, and I am able to adjust my study schedule around confirmed bookings. Once I begin working in the hospital, my anticipated schedule will consist of three scheduled shifts per week, leaving the remaining four days largely open and predictable for pet care. I do not have children or other routinely changing obligations that would interfere with confirmed bookings. Any known limitations to my availability will always be communicated in advance, and with clear communication regarding your pet’s schedule and needs, I am currently able to accommodate a wide range of scheduling requests. Safety and attentive supervision are priorities in our home. Between my husband and me, our dogs are never left home without one of us present, and I maintain that same standard of supervision for pets entrusted to my care. I would not leave a pet unattended while I am responsible for their care. We have a fully fenced backyard and maintain a clean, organized, and uncluttered home and outdoor environment. With a five-month-old puppy of our own, our home is consistently kept pet-safe, with unsafe or inappropriate items secured and inaccessible. I am also careful and deliberate when managing interactions between animals and never assume unfamiliar dogs can simply be left together unsupervised. Introductions, outdoor access, feeding, and shared spaces are appropriately supervised, with the safety and comfort of each individual pet remaining the priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain the same standard of supervision, respect for their environment, and attention to safety.

“Kristina was so wonderful with Rosie! Rosie did not want to leave! She had lots of toys to play with & lots of love! Kristina sent funny pics and updates through Rosie’s stay and she responded quickly to my texts and questions. I will definitely reach out to Kristina again to care for Rosie & I highly recommend her & Winter to care for your dog!”
About: I have have multiple years of caring for people's pets. I was a professional housekeeper with my own business for over 20 years and also cared for their animals when they were away. I have been a long time pet owner myself and recently my fur babies passed away. I am looking to earn a little extra income as a senior while enjoying the company of animals. I am a senior and I am retired. Recently my fur babies passed away and I am looking to supplement my income while caring for people's pets. I really miss having animals in my home. I live in a senior mobile home park and I have a fenced in yard. I make sure that animals are safe, fed watered, walked and get plenty of potty breaks. They will get lots of love. I keep the yard clear of poop so that their environment is healthy for them.
About: Grew up w/ small dogs and cats! All have been my favorite.😫 From bottle feeding week-old kittens to park-day trips, administering medication and probiotics. Baths for the pups are no problem, too! I am free twice a day at minimum for daily drops ins with optional extended bonding and play time, as well as weekend house sitting where your fur baby will be attended to for the remainder of the night! 🐾🐈🫶🏼 I use a baby gate as a “keep-out” tool if needed to be utilized in a specific area of your home. A provided crate for dogs that are destructive when left alone or in general would be appreciated!
“Bryce and Nate are fantastic! My dog Betty didn’t even have separation anxiety and was so happy to be with them. It’s very reassuring to know your dog is being well taken care of! Thanks guys so much 🐶👏🐶”
“Charli and her fiance were fantastic with our anxious girl Daphne! She made me feel at ease, this was the first time we ever have let Daphne stay with someone who wasn't family. We will be a return customer, I'm so delighted with how it went!”

About: I've taken care of my neighbors' dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs since I was a young teen, and have had multiple furry best friends of my own over the past 15 years. I'm highly qualified to provide the best possible care for your beloved friend, including seniors and pets with special needs. I'm a volunteer dog-walker at the local animal shelter, and have the ability to exercise high-energy dogs. I'd love to keep your dog healthy, active and socialized while you're away! My schedule is open and available for pet-sitting or dog-walking any day of the week! 24/7 available care when I overnight sit at your home In your home, I can stay overnight or make 1 house visit per day. I stick to the schedule you provide for feeding and walking so that your pet needs to make as few adjustments as possible to their daily routine.
“Kristen was so sweet, professional, and caring for the month or so I needed her. Fortunate finding her to trust with my puppy and in my house (which is hard for me as a natural worrier). She communicated about situations that arose.”
About: I have extensive experience with raising animals! I was born into a family of dog lovers, and I have always had a furry friend for as long as I can remember. I have reared and cared for fourteen puppies all at the same time! This includes special-needs puppies who required consistent attention and hand feeding. I have sat for all different sorts of breeds, sizes, and animals! Including small animals like rats, guinea pigs, and reptiles. I have a deep love and compassion for animals and also have a lot of experience in dog training, meaning I am more than happy to keep up with any regimen or structure your friend needs. I work from home as a writer so my schedule is completely open outside of the work I'll be doing here on Rover! In terms of my writing career, when and how I do it is completely flexible meaning I am happy to hear your pet's routine and mold my work around them. I will care for your pets with strict adherence to how you'd like me to care for them. In terms of my personal pet-parenting style, I am the sort who sees my animals as family and they're allowed to lie on the couches and beds. Your pets health and diet are very important to me, so I will always take as much info or instruction as you wish to give me. We have two dogs and a cat at home, all of which are friendly towards other animals, so I will ask that your pet plays nice, with them, as well! Animals who are tolerant/non-aggressive but need space are more than welcome to remain in a quiet room unbothered by our furry family members. We have a loft area where they can be completely separated if need be! They will, however, cross paths with the other dogs and cat when walked or let out in the fenced yard.
About: I am bilingual in English and Spanish! I am very active and available. I will care for your animal with all my love and attention. I have 4 pets of my own, so I understand the seriousness of pet needs. Also have experience giving medication to dogs. I work at Asante hospital and am able to house sit just about any time. I have the convenience of no kids, so I am very flexible! With four cats, I pride on keeping a clean and sanitary home! They deserve the best, and so do your babies. I am willing to stay at your place and keep things exactly the way you want them!
About: Look, anyone can watch a pet. My thing? I actually listen. Seriously. My superpower is picking up on what animals are trying to tell me—be it a happy purr, a 'back off' bark, or a goat's casual bleat for attention. Being a digital nomad means my schedule is entirely my own, so I can truly be present and adapt to their needs, not some rigid clock. Playtime? Cuddles? Or just needing space? I read the room (or yard, or barn). I've got hands-on experience with everything from puppies to pigs, so your critters are always in genuinely attuned hands. This isn't just some gig; it's about making a real connection, deeply. As a digital nomad, my work goes where I go, and my schedule is completely my own. That means no rushing off to an office, no rigid 9-to-5, and definitely no 'squeezing in' pet time. I build my day around the animals I'm caring for. If a dog needs an extra walk, or a cat wants a sudden play session When I'm caring for your pets, my absolute focus is on maintaining their normal routine and comfort right there in their own space. I'm not just showing up to feed and split; I'm integrating into their lives. That means sticking to their feeding schedule, managing medications if needed, and keeping their environment exactly how you left it—clean, familiar, and totally stress-free. Here's the deal: as a digital nomad, my work goes where I go, and my schedule is completely my own. That translates directly into true presence for your pets. If I'm house sitting for you, your animals essentially become my co-workers. That means spontaneous play sessions, consistent outdoor time, and me being fully available. You'll get regular updates so you're never left wondering. Ultimately, it comes down to being attuned to their unique needs and ensuring they feel as comfortable, happy, and loved as they do with you, without ever having to leave their familiar surroundings.
About: I have done pet sitting for over 5 years which include boarding, housesitting and dog walking. I have also cared for cats, chickens, exotic birds and baby goats (bottle fed). I have cared for elderly pets, seizure pets and have no problem with giving medications. ****If you are requesting housesitting, I do have a small easy-going chill dog that likes to come with me if you are ok with that. He gets along with all dogs and cats alike. I do request that we have a meet and greet prior so as to ensure you are comfortable with me in your home and with your pets. I work remotely during the day. So I would be with your pet(s) for the majority of the day. They would only be left alone a few hours on occasion for errands/appointments and such. So they would get plenty of potty breaks, love and attention while you are away. I will care for you pet(s) per your instructions. While at my house they will be allowed on furniture and my bed for extra cuddle time. They will be given plenty of walks and playtime!
About: Hi! Thanks for considering me to care for your pets. I’ve been pet sitting around the Rogue Valley for a little over seven years. I’ve cared for dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and routines, from easygoing pets who mostly want company to animals who need medications, frequent potty breaks, walks, or a little more patience. I’m very laid-back, but I take the responsibility seriously. I follow the routine you leave for me, keep you updated with pictures, and try to make things feel as normal as possible for your pets while you’re gone. I also treat your home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, and I’m always glad to meet new pets and their people. 🐾 My schedule is currently pretty flexible, especially for daytime drop-ins, dog walks, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays. I’m opening my profile back up to new clients, so feel free to reach out with your dates and your pet’s routine. I’m usually able to work something out. I know every pet reacts differently when their family is away, so I bring a calm, patient energy and let them settle in at their own pace. I follow your instructions closely when it comes to meals, walks, medications, bedtime routines, and anything else that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show mine. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know how everything is going while you’re away.

“Ashley was a great sitter for my Grandpa’s dog, Bubba. She was extremely communicative and took great care of him. We really appreciate Ashley and all of her help! Would recommend her to anyone in the Medford area.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life as well as cats and a few other random buddies. I currently own 3 dogs and 3 cats so I know they need love and attention many times a day just like a kid, and I will treat them like I treat my own loved ones. I currently do gig work full time and thus have a fully open schedule. I am able and willing to be there for your animals and house needs at any given hour. I am not currently offering care in my own home as I do not have the capacity of a correct home to take care of your loved ones since I already have my own friends in mine.
About: I stay VERY BUSY petsitting, because I have several regular clients I Petsit, house sit, clean and organize for 16 years. Only sweet loving breeds of dogs, and all cats, chickens, goats, horses, koi,and pet squirrels! I have Virtual work that I can do while I'm Petsitting and housesitting. Also if I am hired to clean or organize a home while I'm Petsitting, that works out really well I care for pets in their own home to minimize their anxiety while their moms and dads are away. I make them feel as comfortable as they can be by sticking to their routine.

My veterinary experience provided a comprehensive foundation in safe animal handling, canine behavior/temperament recognition, medication administration, medical-condition awareness, post-op care, and the identification of subtle changes that may indicate pain, anxiety, or physical distress. I am comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and overall presentation that may warrant closer observation or communication with a pet-parent. I am comfortable caring for dogs across all ages, sizes, and levels of need, including puppies, senior dogs, animals requiring additional behavioral consideration, and pets with established medical or mobility needs. My experience includes oral and injectable medication administration, incision and wound care, mobility assistance, post-operative monitoring, and incontinence-related care. Whether providing a walk, drop-in visit, extended sitting, or boarding, I approach pet care with the same principles that have guided my professional healthcare experience: attentive observation, appropriate precautions, consistency, clear communication, and respect for individualized care requirements. My goal is not simply to supervise a pet while an owner is away, but to provide knowledgeable, responsible care while maintaining the routine, safety, and level of attention each individual animal requires. I recently completed my Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care and am currently preparing for my board examinations, which allows me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be home much of the time. At present, I have considerable availability for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and other pet-care needs, and I am able to adjust my study schedule around confirmed bookings. Once I begin working in the hospital, my anticipated schedule will consist of three scheduled shifts per week, leaving the remaining four days largely open and predictable for pet care. I do not have children or other routinely changing obligations that would interfere with confirmed bookings. Any known limitations to my availability will always be communicated in advance, and with clear communication regarding your pet’s schedule and needs, I am currently able to accommodate a wide range of scheduling requests. Safety and attentive supervision are priorities in our home. Between my husband and me, our dogs are never left home without one of us present, and I maintain that same standard of supervision for pets entrusted to my care. I would not leave a pet unattended while I am responsible for their care. We have a fully fenced backyard and maintain a clean, organized, and uncluttered home and outdoor environment. With a five-month-old puppy of our own, our home is consistently kept pet-safe, with unsafe or inappropriate items secured and inaccessible. I am also careful and deliberate when managing interactions between animals and never assume unfamiliar dogs can simply be left together unsupervised. Introductions, outdoor access, feeding, and shared spaces are appropriately supervised, with the safety and comfort of each individual pet remaining the priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain the same standard of supervision, respect for their environment, and attention to safety.

“Angelica is a great find! She helped us out over the Christmas holiday and her rates are very reasonable. We feel so lucky we found her! She took great care of our two older dogs and our spunky younger poodle mix. She even remembered to put food out for our shy, skittish kitty. ? Thanks, Angelica! Hope to have your help again sometime soon.”

“Daniela is amazing!! We couldn't be happier. She kept in touch with us throughout our pups extended stay, sending pictures and updates - all of which portrayed that she and her husband were almost in as much love with him as we are :) Being a skeptic, I feel that this is always my hesitation with dog boarding/sitters/kennels - but we are 100% confident that she is the real deal. So thankful - will definitely be booking again.”
“Super sweet people and dogs. They have a nice fenced in space and a doggy door! I got several updates with pictures, even with a family emergency, of my boy playing and having a good time. I felt great about leaving my dog with them! I would absolutely recommend and use them again in the future!”
“Bernie had a great time with Jordan. I think Bernie is missing all his new dog friends that he met (especially Leo). I felt very comfortable that he would be well taken care of, so I was able to enjoy my visit with family. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Anika and her family were fantastic! You can tell the dogs got lots of love and attention! She was very flexible with our schedule and was great about giving our aging Golden Retriever her medications. I would highly recommend Anika!”
“Amy took our Great Pyranees for three days. Our GP is a new rescue, so she is not very predictable and still hasn't been to a groomer.... but Amy managed to understand her and love on her. She sent updates and pictures regularly and treated our girl like part of her family. Amy's flexibility was valuable behond words for us, given the circumstances. 100% recommendation 💛💛💛”

“Absolutely amazing experience with Anyssah! She kept me informed at all time and assured me he was doing well as this was my first time leaving him with someone he didn’t know. She also accommodated to his needs and just made this stay so much easier for us to go through. I will absolutely book her again if needed. Thank you Anyssah!”
“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”

My dog is kennel trained and usually is in her kennel when no one is home, but we leave her out when we aren't gone long. I make sure everyone has water in the morning and evening.

I can also close it off to control access outside. I always leash my dog when going on walks.
“What a wonderful experience! From drop off to pick up Garrett and Monica were welcoming and warm to our pups. They sent tons of photos throughout the stay and our pups were tired and happy when we picked them up. Highly recommended! We will be using them again for sure!”
