“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”
“Our dog has some pretty bad anxiety and has come home from previous sitters pretty stressed out. This time, she ate her meals, played with the resident dog, and came home stress free and happy as could be!”
“Our dog Tucker is initially shy around new people and other dogs but Tiffany was able to really make him feel at home during his stay with her. Her enclosed backyard gave Tucker plenty of privacy to settle in and explore his new surroundings. She updated us with pictures and it was very clear early on that Tucker was settling in just fine with her other dog and family. We will definitely be using Tiffany again for our dog.”
“Much thanks to Jim and his family for the wonderful care of our sweet,but anxious girl,Linda. What a pleasure to work with...i loved the pictures while we were away,and the prompt communication. Was such a breeze,and eased my nerves leaving her. Highly recommend,and I will definitely keep Jim’s info for future dog care needs. Thank you.”
“Janette and her family are so sweet and obviously love taking care of dogs. They welcomed my puppy into their home right along side their adorable three dogs and three kids. He had tons of space to run around outside, a puppy pool to splash around in, and a safe place inside for his crate so he could get some sleep overnight. They sent me pictures and an update during his stay, and told me all about how he did when I picked him up. He came home tired, happy, and clean - what more could I ask for?”
“Alexa was incredible! She sent me updates on my dog without me having to ask, including plenty of pictures of him having a blast staying there. I’m leaving Sunny with Alexa whenever I go out of town!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Julie, Caleb and their children made Snickers stay wonderful. They kept me updated with pictures and how Snickers day was going. My husband and I were able to have a great vacation knowing Snickers was getting lots of love and attention! We will definitely use them again!!!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone. Cassandra made the process super easy. She sent many videos and pictures of my girl. I will use her again in the future.”
“Carole was wonderful! She was so good to Bogey and Chica. Carole loved our doggies like they were her own. Bogey and Chica were treated like part of the family. They were included in everything even cuddle time. I felt like my babies were just away at camp. They had a wonderful time! Carole even sent daily photos which I really needed to see how they were since we were vacationing across the united states. I highly recommend leaving your pets with Carole when you plan a trip away. They will be in very good hands. Thank you Carole!!!”
“Samantha watched my dog that has anxiety and never spent a day let alone 5 nights away from me in her 5 years on this earth. She welcomed Zoey into her home and made it feel like her own. I got a few pics with an update on how she was doing. Samantha was great with communication pre booking and every quick with responding. I would recommend her to anyone needing boarding”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
“Megan and her family were great with our 2 dogs. Both dogs are more on the nervous side and tend to be very shy and hide in new situations. Megan said she let them take their time getting to know the place and let them decide when they would be interested in being more social with the family. The girls seemed to do well and were happy and healthy when we came and got them. Also appreciated the flexibility on the drop off/pick up as we were beholden to airline schedules! Our booking was last minute, so I'm very thankful Megan was willing to take the girls and I will be booking with her again in the future.”
“Gibby loved his time with Christine, Andrew, Roscoe and Carl. They were all so welcoming and just opened up their home to him. With all the photos and updates I had an enjoyable and worry free time away. Will definitely use them again.”
“Amanda had my active puppy for an entire week - she was so well cared for and had so much fun. Amanda sent pictures so we could see how our little fur baby was doing along the way. Her large fenced in yard was perfect! Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“Chonlada and her family are the absolute best dog caretakers!! Our dog, Duddles, had such a great time with them. Not only did they send regular photo and video updates, but they had fun play-time with her, gave her lots of snuggles, and regular treat breaks. Plus, their backyard is huge, fenced-in, and gorgeous, so lots of room for outdoor playtime! We could not recommend them more!”

When my husband and I suddenly realized that we'd make an error with the auto-feeder, Melissa was able to swoop in with another visit to make sure all was well.”
“Anya was superb! She was dependable, diligent and considerate. She stayed for required time, and entertain them as well! She sent photos every day while there. I strongly recommend Anya for future cat sitting jobs. Thank you Anya for making us feel comfortable while in vacay!”

“Hunter was great! We had a last-minute booking need, and she stepped in without any issue. We were relieved that someone could come by to check on the kitties while we were gone.”
“Amber was super responsive and really helped us out over the holiday weekend. Our cat takes several medications and Amber was able to administer all of them for us. Would definitely book with her again 😊”
“Diana was very accommodating & was able to help me out at the last minute. She did very well with my two dogs & they seemed to be very comfortable with her. She followed my detailed instructions & didn't appear to have any problems with my sometimes problematic dog. I would definitely recommend Diana to those who need a caring, responsible pet sitter.”
“What a lovely experience. From our initial meeting that gave us confidence, to the great communication throughout, we had peace of mind that our guy was being well cared for. The photographs and updates were so appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Clare.”
“Susan is a fantastic cat sitter. Our cat felt comfortable and cared for. She spent time with him ensuring he ate, exercised and received scratches and pets. Susan submits daily updates and photos providing the pet owner with reassurance that their pet is doing well. We're so appreciate of Susan.”

About: Hi! We are a family of 5 (mom, dad, and 3 girls whose ages are 16, 18, and 20) who love animals, being outdoors, and hanging out together. We are home almost every day because we homeschool. We are always walking and riding bikes around our neighborhood and love to go hiking, and also enjoy a nice evening relaxing by our fire and curling up with a good book. We offer a lower price because we know pet care can get expensive fast! We are always looking for ways to serve the community and this is one of the ways we can do it. The love and attention your pet will receive from my family is priceless! I've had a dog all my growing up life at home. We owned probably 5 different dogs and loved them all. Now my girls love dogs and thoroughly enjoy romping in the backyard. We homeschool and I work from home, so lots of attention will be lavished on your pet. My girls will always make sure your pet is comfortable! We always love to send photos! We know it eases our minds when we are away to see pictures of our dogs, so we send regular updates to you! We have a large yard with a section fenced off for quick potty breaks.

“Mia was a good sitter for my little Luna . We will definitely consider leaving her with Mia . She kept us informed the whole time we were away for vacation. She sent me pictures. Thank you Mia for taking care of our baby girl.”
“Anri has been a fantastic daytime sitter for Vinny! From the moment we arrived, it was clear she created a safe, welcoming space for dogs to play and relax. Vinny immediately hit it off with her dog, and each morning he was excited to head back. Anri made sure he got regular walks and plenty of time to play. Highly recommend!”
About: From the very moment I can remember I always wanted to be a veterinarian but life had other plans for me and that’s okay because my love for pets will forever remain the same.

Dogs are always walked on a leash regardless of how they walk at home, I will never risk losing someone’s dog. I make sure doors are always locked and never left opened.

About: Looking for a calm, loving place where your dog will be treated like family? You've found it! I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so my goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible. Whether you need doggy daycare for a few hours, overnight boarding, or care for a long weekend, your pup will receive plenty of one-on-one attention in a peaceful home. One of the biggest perks? I don't currently have a dog of my own, so your pup gets my full attention without having to compete with other resident dogs. I work from home full-time, so they'll have companionship throughout the day, regular potty breaks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love. My home is set up with dogs in mind, including a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. Every dog has their own routine, and I'm happy to accommodate it. If your pup is crate-trained, I'm happy to continue that routine. If they prefer to free roam, they're welcome to make themselves at home. I have a naturally quiet household—no loud music or constant commotion—making it an ideal environment for dogs who enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. Whether your dog loves to play, snuggle on the couch, or simply nap in a cozy spot, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have two cats who live upstairs in their own separate area and do not interact with boarding dogs, allowing everyone to enjoy their own space comfortably. I know you're trusting someone with a member of your family, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll treat your pup with the same patience, affection, and care I'd want for my own pet, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

“Nan and family did a wonderful job looking after our dog Phineas. He stayed with them for daycare on two consecutive days. The home with two other dogs helped him to fit right into the family.”
“Mollie is the best and rescued me last min and watched my dog for me without hesitation. I will forever be grateful for her and her family helping me last min during such a tough time.”
“Julie & Caleb were incredibly responsive and helpful when I needed a daycare arrangement for my Pointer. I ended up cancelling due to a change of plans, but will absolutely rebook in the future if I need daycare when in town.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid. Everything from turtles, fish, hamsters, to cats and dogs. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a 5.5 and 3 year old. All of us love animals, especially dogs. We would be honored to care for your fur babies while you are away! I’m a stay at home mom and my husband works from home. Between the two of us, someone is usually here. Sometimes I have errands to run but I’m not ever gone more than 2-3 hours max. I do not have a fenced in yard but am happy to walk your dog as often as needed. We have a very dog friendly neighborhood and it’s quiet. We are open to using a crate or don’t have to- whatever is the owners preference.
About: I absolutely adore all animals, especially dogs! My family has had dogs as pets since I was a little girl. I currently personally have 1 dog; a loving, yet lazy beagle. My aunt runs a dog rescue, so I am always around all different breeds, sizes and personalities of dogs! I love to play, snuggle and take care of dogs! My experience with dogs extends past 20 years! I promise to treat your pets as if they were my own! I don't have a preference to the breed, as long as they're nice and friendly dogs! Hope I can be a fit for your needs! I currently am a stay at home mom to my 3 sweet kiddos. Aside from my daily errands - I am almost always home and available! I take the dogs out on a leash, always, to ensure the safety of them. I do frequent potty breaks. I have a water bowl that they are free to drink from as needed, and always have a treat and cuddle ready for them!

About: Hello! :) I am a dependable, caring dog lover who works from home, so your pup will have someone around throughout the day. I've cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages by visiting friends and families homes for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I'm experienced with giving oral medications, including chewable medications, and I'm happy to follow your dog's daily routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I'll keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit.

I respect each home and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I also am a picture person so i send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing :)
“Our two dogs seemed to be at ease with Megan during a four hour "day care" at her residence. They came home happy, tired and healthy. I think that's a good sign. I met her two dogs and found them to be gentle and well-behaved. Although our dogs were with her for only a four hour stay that day, she still somehow managed to get nice, little walk in for them! At this point, I feel comfortable with Megan and her ability to care for our doggies and would use her service again. She's very professional, cordial and accommodating. She provided quick responses every time I had questions. Thanks!”
“We can not say enough about how wonderful Jean is and such a caring person. Our Bella had such a great day with Jean and little Muffin. We will definitely be using Jean in the future when we need a dog sitter for Bella.”

“Melissa was wonderful with our two energetic Boston terriers. We hired her to walk them during the day while our friend (who was staying at our house when we were in vacation) was at work. Not only did she walk them, she took the time to play with them as well and get their energy out. We would definitely hire her again!”

About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I grew up with three wonderful dogs throughout my childhood, each teaching me something different about love, patience, and companionship. One of them was even a future seeing-eye dog. Although we only had him for about a year before he went on to begin his important work, it was incredibly rewarding to be part of his journey and to help prepare him for the life-changing role he would have. When my husband and I bought our first home, one of the very first things we did was adopt the sweetest girl named Kora. She filled our home with joy, laughter, muddy paw prints, and unconditional love for ten unforgettable years. Saying goodbye to her was one of the hardest things we've ever done, but I wouldn't trade a single moment we had together. Because of these experiences, I know that dogs aren't "just pets"—they're family. Whether your dog loves long walks, endless games of fetch, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I'll care for them with the same patience, kindness, and attention I'd want someone to give my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy until you're back home. Beginning August 1st, my scheduled will be wide open. I have been working as a Licensed Massage Therapist for the past 11 years...and for 6 of those years I have owned my own business. I have recently decided to retire and close my business. I feel that pet sitting is the perfect mix of flexibility while also scratching the itch to spend all my time with fluff balls! I am looking forward to taking your dog on their walks, playing fetch in the backyard, or cuddling on the couch with them. I also love to spend time with you cats, rabbits, rats, hermit crabs...you get the idea!
“Another wonderful walk by Hunter! So very thankful she was available to take our pupper on 2 walks today. She always does such a great job and Reggie is always super excited to see her! Thanks so much Hunter!”

About: I’ve had experience working with my own zoo of animals ranging from reptiles, to small animals, to birds, and of course cats. I also have experience with dogs with plenty of experience administering medication to a wide range of animals. I’ve also worked at a kennel for 2 summers walking dogs. As a full-time High School Teacher, my availability opens up significantly in the summers. Lucky for all of us, that’s usually when everyone wants to enjoy the weather! Depending on the situation, I can be very accommodating and flexible for whatever you and your pet needs. My wife and I have our own zoo of animals ranging from reptiles and amphibians, to rabbits, to fish, to birds, and of course cats. While we are getting ready to purchase our first home together before we add a doggy to the mix, I have years of personal experience with dogs, with some professional experience working at a pet inn. Every night I spend at least 30 minutes tending to the care of our various animals, checking in on them and documenting feedings while taking note on any physical changes or abnormalities. The cats of course get more attention and more feedings, usually about 4 small meals spread throughout the day ranging from dry food to various wets foods.
About: Woof!!, Hello in dog language :) I don't currently own a dog but have had dogs in the past. I have 3 cats and if your dog does not like cats, they are perfectly fine hanging out in the basement during your dog's stay. This is my 7th year pet sitting. I am very reliable and have pet sat for my neighbors, friends and family's pets. I volunteered for a pet shelter for six months cleaning cages and walking dogs. Sitting for your dog will allow me to get a pooch-fix and send them home, kinda like grandkids LOL.... Thank you for reading my profile. Hope to see you and Fido soon! I currently work out of the home part-time, leaving at 6am returning by 9am. I am Home till 1pm and returning at 4. Thank you! I have a fenced yard for the pets to run and play in. I have a large dog crate if that is what your dog uses, they are welcome to use mine.
About: I've had cats my whole life, and while I've never owned a dog, I've pet sit for my family and friends on multiple occasions. And, for the past two years I've been working for a pet sitting company! It's been a great joy to get to know the dogs and cats I have met over the past two years. I also have worked in a shelter enviroment and have enxperience administering medicine and vaccines, as well as with dogs and cats with specific behavorial needs. Since I have four cats of my own right now I won't be able to house any animals in my home, but I have a car and am happy to drive to your house and take your pets to wherever they might need! I'm currently devoting most if my time to pet sitting and am willing to fit in a visit or a walk anytime, and any day of the week. I'm happy to work overnight in your house, but since I have four cats who have wildly different personalities, I won't be able to house any pets in my home. I pride myself on being able to figure out what an animal needs, and on being patient with pets with any sort of special behavioral, or medical needs.

“Our dog has some pretty bad anxiety and has come home from previous sitters pretty stressed out. This time, she ate her meals, played with the resident dog, and came home stress free and happy as could be!”
“Much thanks to Jim and his family for the wonderful care of our sweet,but anxious girl,Linda. What a pleasure to work with...i loved the pictures while we were away,and the prompt communication. Was such a breeze,and eased my nerves leaving her. Highly recommend,and I will definitely keep Jim’s info for future dog care needs. Thank you.”
“Alexa was incredible! She sent me updates on my dog without me having to ask, including plenty of pictures of him having a blast staying there. I’m leaving Sunny with Alexa whenever I go out of town!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Julie, Caleb and their children made Snickers stay wonderful. They kept me updated with pictures and how Snickers day was going. My husband and I were able to have a great vacation knowing Snickers was getting lots of love and attention! We will definitely use them again!!!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone. Cassandra made the process super easy. She sent many videos and pictures of my girl. I will use her again in the future.”
“Carole was wonderful! She was so good to Bogey and Chica. Carole loved our doggies like they were her own. Bogey and Chica were treated like part of the family. They were included in everything even cuddle time. I felt like my babies were just away at camp. They had a wonderful time! Carole even sent daily photos which I really needed to see how they were since we were vacationing across the united states. I highly recommend leaving your pets with Carole when you plan a trip away. They will be in very good hands. Thank you Carole!!!”
“Samantha watched my dog that has anxiety and never spent a day let alone 5 nights away from me in her 5 years on this earth. She welcomed Zoey into her home and made it feel like her own. I got a few pics with an update on how she was doing. Samantha was great with communication pre booking and every quick with responding. I would recommend her to anyone needing boarding”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
“Megan and her family were great with our 2 dogs. Both dogs are more on the nervous side and tend to be very shy and hide in new situations. Megan said she let them take their time getting to know the place and let them decide when they would be interested in being more social with the family. The girls seemed to do well and were happy and healthy when we came and got them. Also appreciated the flexibility on the drop off/pick up as we were beholden to airline schedules! Our booking was last minute, so I'm very thankful Megan was willing to take the girls and I will be booking with her again in the future.”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“They were awesome! They took extra time to make my senior dog feel at home. My dog didn’t even want to leave! He was truly cared for. Ive never had someone so intent on ensuring my dog was happy. I know my pet was in good hands and I will be sure to send him in the future!”
“Adrienne watched our fur baby Triple for the first time overnight. She was great! Triple enjoyed his stay. Thank you for taking such good care of him. I highly recommend and will definitely be using her again.”
“Dawn is absolutely amazing. She is completely comfortable around dogs and is extremely communicative, which made the entire experience so reassuring. My dog seemed to have an amazing time and I will 100% be using her services again.”
“We had a great experience with Andrew and Chelsea! They took fantastic care of my dog and provided updates on him throughout my time away. He was a happy pup when I picked him up! I highly recommend!”
“Dolly must have had a wonderful time with Beth and the family. I'm not even so sure she's glad to be home. Lol. We will definitely reach out to Beth next time we need Dolly to go in vacation.”
“Emmanuel is absolutely amazing guys, please listen: I had a Labor Day vacation booked and the Wednesday before we were leaving (we left Friday afternoon) our sitter cancelled. We have an almost 5 month old Dane and a 4 year old husky, both purebred and the handfuls that they sound like. Emmanuel cared for them, sent us pictures of the new friends they’d make, them eating, using the bathroom or even getting exercise. My Great Dane boy came home, if not at the same training level, better from the socializing and lifestyle he had with Emmanuel. I recommend him 10 times over and want to use him for an October vacation I have planned!”
