“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Justin saved my vacation! I have used Rover before- but WOW!!! Bella had an amazing time at her new pal’s home and sooo enjoyed all the amenities - fur friends, happy humans and a POOL!!! I received pictures and videos throughout her stay which was wonderful. I will call upon Justin and his crew again to watch Bella!! Thank you Justin!!!”
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
“Carol was the absolute best sitter we have known and used. Our dog was certainly a challenge at 17+ years old but she handled him with love and care throughout his stay. His poor eyesight and hearing, weak legs, anxiety, and the medications required for them were handled professionally.”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
“Mar is great to Molly. Even when a family emergency came up and I had to extend the visit unexpectedly, Mar was super helpful and accommodating. Molly gets excited when we pull up to the house, so I know she is in good hands and has a great time when she's there.”
“Amanda is WONDERFUL! I am always cautious about leaving Rex with anyone but I had no concerns at all. She treated him like one of her own babies and he really enjoyed himself. I will always use her for his birding needs. She is his new "GRAMMY"”
“We have been lucky enough to be able to have Vivian and her family watch our dog, Ebby, for the past 5 years. I cannot say enough good things about her! When we pull into the driveway Ebby cries with excitement and runs to their front door. Thank you for always treating our dog like she is a part of your family, Vivian!”
“Renae took such good care of Nash while I was on vacation! She updated me every day and treated him as one of her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and I will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Our mini golden doodle loved spending the weekend with her new friends! Highly recommend! Received pics and videos the whole time! We will definitely be booking again! Thank guys for everything! 🥰”
About: I am home a significant amount during the summer and can provide all the love you would if you were home with your own pet! I know it is difficult to leave them behind, and will make sure they have all the love they need. I am a caring, dog-loving person with children. Your pet will be treated like one of our own. I do have a friendly Golden Retriever who loves making new furry friends. As a teacher, I'm home all summer, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, companionship, and love throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving environment where your furry family member can feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Days and times will vary August-June as we head back to school. Though I do not have a fenced in yard, I can provide ample yard space and wooded areas both behind and on the side of our home. I do live on a side country road and do not receive a ton of traffic. I will also walk or use a tie out as requested.
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and have looked after countless pets for family and friends over the years. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and enjoy caring for them while their owners are on vacation, at work, or simply need an extra hand. I work full-time from home, which means your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. My home office is set up in a spare bedroom where your pup can relax with me while I work. I also have flexibility to provide walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening. I'm very affectionate with animals and will care for your dog as if they were my own. I love keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged through playtime, enrichment puzzles, treats (with your approval), and lots of one-on-one attention. My lunch break is dedicated to spending quality time with them so they get plenty of interaction throughout the day. For overnight stays, your dog will have a comfortable space of their own in our living room. You're welcome to bring their crate, favorite blanket, or bed if that helps them feel more at home. I also have both a small and a large dog bed available to accommodate different sizes. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, though they will sleep in their own designated area rather than in my bed. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I typically schedule walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening, with plenty of attention and cuddle time in between. My flexible work schedule also allows me to accommodate boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks. Whether your pet needs an active day of play or a quiet place to relax while you're away, I'm able to provide consistent care and supervision to help them feel comfortable and at home. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay so I can provide consistent, personalized care. I supervise pets throughout the day since I work from home, ensuring they always have access to fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with comfortable spaces for dogs to relax and unwind. I closely monitor interactions, keep doors and gates secure, and only provide treats or activities that have been approved by the owner. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine, keep your home tidy, and provide updates with photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Brittany was great with our two pups! We could tell when we picked them up they enjoyed their time and didn’t want to leave - they were passed out in the car ride on the way home lol! I know they both got lots of love from Brittany, her son, and Athena! She even went out and bought one of our pups a new harness because it broke with no intentions of getting a refund which shows she’s a very caring person overall. Will use again in the future!”
“Patrick is wonderful. He has watched my puppy and now my senior boy. My senior boy had a little trouble adjusting and Patrick was so kind and easy to communicate with. He provided much appreciated photos and updates and I never once had to worry about my buddy.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie who is our whole world. I love all animals and promise to go above and beyond to meet their needs. I work part time two days a week. I am home full time the other five days of the week. I may or may not accept bookings on the days that I work depending on the needs you are looking for. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie! We do have a toddler present in the home with a baby on the way as well. Asking that all dogs you are seeking care for are good with other dogs and small children.

About: I truly enjoy getting to know each individual dog's personality and tailoring my response to match. My family always had a dog growing up. Though I am not a "dog trainer" my dogs have always been taught basic commands and learned to reliably respond, for their safety. Lots of treats. I am retired, so I (and my husband) are normally home except for brief errands. My dog and I take about a mile walk twice a day through the woods. Your dog would get frequent leash walks, and whatever playtime they wanted. And of course lots of hugs. :) We have a large back yard bordering on a wooded area for frequently leash walking your dog. Additionally we have a small (20' x 14') fenced area for some off leash play time. Our dog enjoys other dogs and our cat thinks he is a dog. Our pets are allowed on furniture, but of course we would reinforce your rules if they differ. We will play games in the house and lots of attention will be given.
“Kaley has been a life saver for me on two occasions. She gives my kitties such great care!!! Make sure they are comfy, fed and have fresh water And brings up any concerns or ideas for my fur babies!!!”
“Joselle was a great pet sitter. She not only cared for our large senior dog, she also took care of our daughter’s 9 week old puppy. She kept in touch with us & was very attentive. Will definitely book her again”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine life without them. Growing up with dogs taught me that every pup has a unique personality, and over the years I’ve also cared for dogs belonging to family members and friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—as well as dogs with different temperaments, activity levels, and care needs. In addition to personal pet care experience, I am an active shelter volunteer at Four Footed Friends, where I enjoy hands-on experience working with dogs of varying backgrounds and abilities. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making each dog feel safe and loved. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and treat them like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I work full time M-F 8am-4:30pm. I can be available mornings before work, or evenings after, during weekdays. Weekends are flexible. Working out what works best for you and your pets should not be a problem. I have a four-year-old female (spayed) mini goldendoodle who is highly socialized with a friendly temperament and loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. I try to get her out for a walk every day, depending on weather, or at least a little time sitting outside on the porch or playing fetch in the yard. If we can’t go outdoors, she loves to play tug, and enjoys puzzle toys for mental stimulation, or some trick training with treats. We both love to be outside during the summer, so if you have a backyard, we are willing to entertain your pup with play, lounging outside, or going for a walk.
About: I had a few cats when I was a kid. While most of my experience is with dogs, my mom owns three cats and I have taken care of them while she has gone on vacation many times! I am a genuine animal lover and I adore cats just as much as dogs.
About: I have always lived with cats in the house. I work with cats at PetSmart cleaning the cages, giving food and water, and socializing the cats. I have a flexible schedule. I am on weekdays and weekends in the morning, afternoon, and night. I am happy to see your pet at anytime. I respect cats if they do not want to interact with me. I will back away from the cats if they seem angry or scared.
“Paige did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs. Our puppy wasn’t feeling great the night before but Paige kept me posted on how she was doing throughout the day. Dogs were happy when we came home and house was as we left it. Would definitely use Paige again.”
About: I used to work at an animal rescue so I’ve dealt with all kinds of dogs! What I learned from working there is that every animal is special and deserves all the love in the world. I work part-time at an elementary school. I typically work Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so my schedule any other day is wide open. I just need the client to put in the request a couple days in advance! I am a college student so I live in an apartment with three other girls. The apartment is pet friendly and we have dogs over all the time! There is no fenced in yard, but there is a beautiful, spacious yard behind the complex. As for a client’s home, I will care for the pet per the clients request!
“Hope is truly the best sitter we have ever had! She's so sweet and kind, our animals love her especially our pup who is older and doesn't always do well with new people in the house!”
“Joudi was truly a last minute godsend. Right before my wedding we got a horrifying diagnosis of CHF for our one cat. (we have four) With this new diagnosis and treatment regimen we desperately needed someone with the experience, skills and overall caring attitude that is Joudi. She was seriously amazing and allowed us the much needed peace of mind over our wedding weekend. I literally can't recommend her enough, our kitties miss her already! I could not have asked for a better first experience using Rover!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I've had a variety of dog breeds. I currently have 3 of my own; one big(Australian Shepard dobermand mix), one medium (pitbull), and one small (mini pinscher). I also dog sit for friends when they go on vacation. I walk, feed, bathe, and play with their dogs as well as my own. I am an EMT. I work 12 and 24 hour shifts rotating between 2-3 days a week. On my days off I plan to spend them with some dogs and/or cats! In my home I have a fenced in back yard that my dogs can run and play safely. Fetch is my pitbulls favorite game and I love to play with her. If I were to take care of your pets I would make sure to follow your dog's schedule as they normally would, including playtime and walks!
About: I’ve had pets all my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, horses and other farm animals before. I love and adore animals. Thanks for your time. I’m currently working part-time at a hotel.

About: I have tons of experience with both cats and dogs. I have two pets of my own that i trained and take care of, a golden retriever and a cat! I am home for the summer hoping to save for college. I can promise I will be a great person to rely on to take care of your pets! I work an evening shift at my part time job throughout the week, but it is very flexible. I am open throughout the week and can work per care into my schedule very easily. I have a very friendly dog in my home and a cat that is inside and outside. When it comes to caring for your pet in my home, I will treat them as my own! My dog gets almost daily walks and is on a very consistent feeding schedule, as yours will be as well.
About: I grew up in East Texas with 3 Bengal tigers in my front yard and a minuture potbelly pig named Bubba in our home. I currently have a Exotic Micro Bully named Gucci who loves all other animals. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is Gucci and we would love to have your animal and promise to keep them safe. They will be walked and entertained. If your pet doesn't like other pets then we might not be the best fit. Gucci can handle just about anything but he is so socialized that I don't think he would defend himself even if he needed too. Please only other animals that are completely okay with other pets. We go to the Westmoreland County Dog Obodeience School once a week and will pass on all knowledge we learn to those that will let us teach them. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is non stop pet care. You will have no worries of your pet being left unattended. Gucci is never left alone and neither will your pet. Lots of walks and love! If you would like your pet crated for whatever reason please provide it. We are a crate free home. I live in an apartment but it's a big one and we take lots of walks.

“Deanna was great! She was able to take Mishka within 2 days notice and met with us first to make sure Mishka felt comfortable in her home! If we visit PA again with family we will use her and I will let any friends in my hometown know how great she was!”
About: Who can love your little ones as you do? I was licensed for child daycare in Colorado for over 10 years. We are animal lovers and guardians of two little dogs. Adults who love and understand the needs of little fur babies. We would love to get to know your special one too. Please make sure you add all of the info for the vet you use. All dogs will need to be current on vaccines and flea and tick care. Please keep in mind when you pay for one day it covers you for 24 hrs. So if you bring your baby at 6 a.m. you will be covered till 6 a.m. the following day. Any hours after that is $6.00 an hour. If you book for more than a weekend, I can be flexible (1 to 2 hrs) due to flight delays, etc. Thank you! I'm currently not working outside home so no matter what your little ones will have someone here at all times. I feed everyone seperately and we walk when weather permits. We have potty pads available for comfort in between outings. I allow access to my whole home and will enjoy a walk once a day or more weather permitting. We have a great time individually and daily with all our little ones.
“Marcy is beyond wonderful! She’s so caring and I can tell Porter has a good time while he stays with her and her dog Charlie. He comes home completely I can’t seem to keep him awake which is amazing because he’s just a 3 month old puppy and is typically a wild child in the afternoons! Marcy was so kind to take him on at a late request and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my little man. She made me feel so comfortable immediately! If I could give her more than five stars I would! She is so kind and I can guarantee she’d treat anyone’s pup like the special little fur ball they are :)”
About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 12 and have house sit/walked/let out my friends and families dogs for years. I love taking care of them like they are my own as I don’t have any pets living with me now. I don’t work all summer long. I travel most weekends but am available during the week all day. I am off of work until August 1 and then my schedule doesn’t allow for much flexibility. I live in an apartment complex that is very dog friendly. There is plenty of room for dogs to use the bathroom and go for walks on the leash. I allow pets on my furniture but if that’s not what you do in your household I will implement the same rules you use. No matter how friendly your dog is, I won’t allow other dogs to approach since I don’t know many of the dogs in my complex. I do not hit dogs as a reprimand at any time so please tell me what methods you’re comfortable with me using instead if needed. Honestly, if there’s anything specific you can feel free to ask for it or question me if you need!

About: My name is Leah. I am a Registered Nurse and I’ve had dogs my whole life! I grew up with them and, as an adult, have owned three dogs of my own — two with special needs. Caring for them taught me patience and responsibility. I always aim to keep their safety and happiness my top priority. I currently work part-time and volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, and I am generally available during the day Tuesday through Sunday. Please note that weekend availability may vary based on personal commitments, and my weekday availability may change in the future as my work schedule evolves. I aim to provide attentive, reliable care in a safe and calm environment, whether in your home or on walks. I follow your instructions carefully, make sure pets are secure at all times, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. My goal is to make every visit or walk enjoyable, stress-free, and tailored to each dog’s personality and needs.
“I can't say enough about Carleen. She set up an appointment before our trip to meet our dog and learn her needs. She was very reliable, always on time, and provided many photos of our Samoyed. She was very trustworthy and made our vacation stress free. She kept in contact and always responded almost immediately. Carleen is very knowledgeable and took amazing care of our dog. She really went above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone for their pet care needs!”
About: Hello I have always had a dog within the household that I have lived. We were raised with little dogs (shih-tzu, mini schnauzers, cocker spaniels).and when I moved out of my parents house; I have 2 dogs, one is an English bulldogge that I swear, she is a sassy toddler (she is 5). She is spoiled. She has been through several training courses. The other one is a rescue mixed blue heeler who is so affectionate. Both of them have individual traits that are cute in their own way. They have their own area called "The Woof Nook." The thing that sets me apart from other people is that I will love your dog as if it were my own. The dog will get whatever you want and I will go the extra mile for your dog. I am an energetic person who values kindness above all else. I have experience with training dogs as I had to train my dogs to do tricks together and seperately. I work 4 days per week full time as a mental health therapist/addictions counselor. I have 3 days off and feel that I could be utilizing my time more effectively. What better way to do that then to spend time with dogs and getting exercise! My dogs go for daily walks and sometimes I take them on hikes (if the weather permits). They also receive baths after a hike. My pups get treats if they listen and are well behaved. Sometimes just because they are cute. I will walk your pup on a short or long walk, depending on your preference. I will also talk to your pup and give praise.
About: I’ve been around pets all my life. From the moment I was born we had cats and my family members had dogs. My cousin trains dogs and has been for 3 years, she gets them as little puppies and I am always around them. I walk dogs frequently and am around them frequently! I help a lot of people dog sit! I would like to get some extra cash and exercise while I am at school! I have an easy schedule this semester and would love to walk a dog or care for a pet. I’ve dog sitted many times before. Everytime I make sure I take them on walks, make sure they pee/poop, and feed them properly, but you can’t forget to love on them!! At home I love on my pets a lot, feed them, and change their litter box.
About: Hi! My name is Plachette, and I've lived with various pets since I was a child. My father was a dog breeder (pitbulls <3), so being surrounded by puppies and dogs is something I've become accustomed to! I have experience with dog walking and sitting multiple breeds at once and administering medication as instructed. While dog sitting at your home, I'll also tend to any messes that are made, bring your newspapers/packages/mail, and give you thorough daily updates of what's going on around the home. Upon request I'm able to provide proof of having 5 star ratings for 150+ services I've already completed for other pet parents. For dog walks, I'm capable of handling small to gigantic dogs. I can work with dogs that pull. I prefer to use a waist leash (I have my own) while walking dogs since it allows me to be hands free and have more control with your pet. Of course, if you prefer your pet's own leash, that's fine too. :) I am self-employed so I am able to make my own schedule for work days and hours. If extended stays or additional pets need longer periods of care, I can adjust to these changes. When pet owners provide me with particular details on how to care for their pets (feeding schedules, administering medication, crating, etc.), I will be a able to provide proper care for any pet.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets, especially dogs and cats, since I was 10. II’m excited to dog or puppy sit and get to know more people in my community I am currently a stay at home mom, December I will be returning to work but I plan on only working part time. Thank you I have 2 local parks I visit and one has a dog park. I also have a fenced in yard at my apartment we spend a lot of time in.
About: Hi there! I’m Jae☺️, a passionate dog lover and experienced dog walker. With a deep appreciation for all breeds, I’m dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and engaging experience for your furry friends. I prioritize their well-being and happiness during our walks, ensuring they get the exercise and socialization they need. Having worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll in the park or an energetic romp, I tailor each walk to suit your dog’s preferences. I’m also committed to maintaining open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos during our adventures together. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members and give them the care and attention they deserve! Let’s make every walk a tail-wagging good time! I’m currently in college so this schedule goes great with my classes. Sometimes my classes get canceled and I can dog sit early or take walks early. I have a dog playground in my neighborhood. I also have plenty of space inside to play and run around. I promise to make this a great experience.
About: I’ve grown up with 3 dogs and have taken care of them by feeding and walking the dogs. I also have a lot of experience in taking care of my friend’s and neighbor’s dogs. I currently live in monroeville working at a consulting firm! I’m usually work from home therefore, I will have plenty of time to give to your dog and take care of it as well! I have a pet friendly house with a backyard. Places to take the dog out for a walk are just a minute away as well. I go for runs as well so your dog could join!
About: I grew up in East Texas with 3 Bengal tigers in my front yard and a minuture potbelly pig named Bubba in our home. I currently have a Exotic Micro Bully named Gucci who loves all other animals. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is Gucci and we would love to have your animal and promise to keep them safe. They will be walked and entertained. If your pet doesn't like other pets then we might not be the best fit. Gucci can handle just about anything but he is so socialized that I don't think he would defend himself even if he needed too. Please only other animals that are completely okay with other pets. We go to the Westmoreland County Dog Obodeience School once a week and will pass on all knowledge we learn to those that will let us teach them. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is non stop pet care. You will have no worries of your pet being left unattended. Gucci is never left alone and neither will your pet. Lots of walks and love! If you would like your pet crated for whatever reason please provide it. We are a crate free home. I live in an apartment but it's a big one and we take lots of walks.

About: I have a senior dog of my own who requires a lot of TLC! With him being 16 I am well versed in administering medicine to animals, giving them all the attention they need, and getting in some active time! I have also house sat and taken care of numerous dogs for a multiple day period! I have been dog sitting as a hobby since I was in high school! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, needs, and energy levels! I joined rover because I have an immense love for fur babies and getting to interact with all of them and take care of them fills me with joy! I am currently in college attending IUP. I graduate in December. During my semesters, my classes are all online so I am very available when it comes to my schedule! I also work part-time but the schedule is flexible as well so I can accommodate for any needs you have! With my work and school schedule being very flexible I am able to stop in for frequent potty breaks and check-ins! This allows me to also be very open for walks and stays! With offering services to watch your animal in your home, this allows for the dog to be more comfortable because they’re in their day-to-day environment! I will take the upmost care with respecting your home and not disrupting it!

Im currently looking to take on a few clients (multiple pet families & senior/special needs pets/exotic pets) that require more of my time, training and attention. Some are just puppies lol Unfortunately, this app does not provide a description of your pet or what exactly you are looking for . If you think we would be a good match we can have a screening interview over the phone. And then I'd follow up with a meet and greet to do a hands-on assessment on your pet. And we could review the pet care needs and routine. My specialty is dogs with PTSD/behavior issues. I'm not afraid of aggressive or high maintenance dogs. Working with animals is my greatest passion. Currently available Tuesday-Saturday days, evenings and weekends. Works part time as a dog bather, working to become a dog groomer. Love spending my time w pets.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 7 when we first got our pug, Loki. He's 14 now. We also got a bulldog, Chubb's. I've walked, fed, and bathed them ever since. I've also taken care of some of my friends pets. For example, I took care of two Australian cattle dogs, fed them, walked them, played with them, bathed them. For a while I lived with 2 great Danes so I am familiar with big dogs. I'm currently working part time, I am a full time college student but I can work around that schedule! I'm not working many hours at my other job, so I should be more available during the week. I always make sure they're within eye-sight. I would never let them run amuck. I'm going to follow everything you say so safety is no issue.
“Sarah is wonderful to work with. Great communication, accommodating, experienced and knowledgeable with animals, punctual, very friendly and definitely a dog lover!

Sarah's interactions with her went very smoothly and Leia(our dog) adores her. 10 stars! :)”

About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
“Our mini golden doodle loved spending the weekend with her new friends! Highly recommend! Received pics and videos the whole time! We will definitely be booking again! Thank guys for everything! 🥰”
About: I am home a significant amount during the summer and can provide all the love you would if you were home with your own pet! I know it is difficult to leave them behind, and will make sure they have all the love they need. I am a caring, dog-loving person with children. Your pet will be treated like one of our own. I do have a friendly Golden Retriever who loves making new furry friends. As a teacher, I'm home all summer, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, companionship, and love throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving environment where your furry family member can feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Days and times will vary August-June as we head back to school. Though I do not have a fenced in yard, I can provide ample yard space and wooded areas both behind and on the side of our home. I do live on a side country road and do not receive a ton of traffic. I will also walk or use a tie out as requested.
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and have looked after countless pets for family and friends over the years. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and enjoy caring for them while their owners are on vacation, at work, or simply need an extra hand. I work full-time from home, which means your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. My home office is set up in a spare bedroom where your pup can relax with me while I work. I also have flexibility to provide walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening. I'm very affectionate with animals and will care for your dog as if they were my own. I love keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged through playtime, enrichment puzzles, treats (with your approval), and lots of one-on-one attention. My lunch break is dedicated to spending quality time with them so they get plenty of interaction throughout the day. For overnight stays, your dog will have a comfortable space of their own in our living room. You're welcome to bring their crate, favorite blanket, or bed if that helps them feel more at home. I also have both a small and a large dog bed available to accommodate different sizes. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, though they will sleep in their own designated area rather than in my bed. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I typically schedule walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening, with plenty of attention and cuddle time in between. My flexible work schedule also allows me to accommodate boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks. Whether your pet needs an active day of play or a quiet place to relax while you're away, I'm able to provide consistent care and supervision to help them feel comfortable and at home. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay so I can provide consistent, personalized care. I supervise pets throughout the day since I work from home, ensuring they always have access to fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with comfortable spaces for dogs to relax and unwind. I closely monitor interactions, keep doors and gates secure, and only provide treats or activities that have been approved by the owner. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine, keep your home tidy, and provide updates with photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Brittany was great with our two pups! We could tell when we picked them up they enjoyed their time and didn’t want to leave - they were passed out in the car ride on the way home lol! I know they both got lots of love from Brittany, her son, and Athena! She even went out and bought one of our pups a new harness because it broke with no intentions of getting a refund which shows she’s a very caring person overall. Will use again in the future!”

Asking that all dogs you are seeking care for are good with other dogs and small children.
“Emily took excellent care of my Barkley while I was traveling for a family wedding. Barkley was dealing with some seasonal allergies, and Emily sent me updates daily to let me know how he was feeling. He needed to take some medications and supplements during his stay, and Emily did a great job providing those, as needed. This was Barkley's first visit, and he enjoyed exploring the fenced yard and spending time with Emily's dogs. It was nice to know that Barkley was well cared for while I was away!”
