Highly-rated overnight sitters - Custards
“Keely took great care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my vacation which kept me at ease since this was my first time boarding. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”
“Margaret and Dermott kept our chocolate lab for us while we were away. They sent us pictures and daily updates on how he was doing. It was so reassuring to know he was in great hands! We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Jennifer was great with our dog Molly when we went away over the weekend! She kept us updated with pictures and messages and took her for lots of walks. Thanks for taking such good care of her!”
“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”
“Kristen just cared for our geriatric, high maintenance cat who has some health issues a second time. She was great again - clear communication, administered daily medication, sent photo updates. Would definitely recommend.”
“Thank you SO much for taking my boy on such short notice. He had so much fun. I am so glad he was able to interact with other pups and play as well. You took very good care of him! I will definitely think of you in the future if we need a sitter but will plan ahead. You are the best!”
“Excellent sitter. Kaitlin provided pictures throughout our dogs stay, and was quick with her replies to any question I might have. She has a wonderful fenced in yard. Will surely use her services again.”
“Chelsea took wonderful care of Duke, and I’m so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. When the weather was rough at drop-off, she was very accommodating, which immediately put me at ease. This was my second time booking with Chelsea, and she was just as attentive and thoughtful as before. It was obvious Duke was well loved and cared for in her home. I also really appreciated the care and play Duke received from her son — it was clear he was given lots of attention and affection. I felt confident knowing Duke was in such good hands and would absolutely have Chelsea as my go-to sitter in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter.”
“Deanna was a great sitter for my Labrador. She was very responsive to all messages and easy to work with for the meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. She had a dog of her own and can tell she cares about my dog as if she was one of her own. I would recommend her to others in the area and will use her again if I need the services while I live in the area.”
“Second time my kitty has stayed with Katherine and will most definitely be going back! She gives updates and sends pictures everyday. A wonderful sitter highly recommended!!!!”
“Jeanne is the best! I left my two Dalmatians with Jeanne over the holidays while my husband and I traveled to California. She sent us photos everyday of our doggies and responds very quickly through text! Highly recommend Jeanne! This is the second time we have left them with her and will continue in the future! Thank you for taking care of my babies so well Jeanne!❤️”
“Chip was amazing on such short notice! He accommodated us at the very last minute when we had some dog sitter plans fall through and I’d say he’s nothing shy of an amazing sitter! After 10 days, our pup came back extremely happy! He is very thorough, attentive, and communicated well. I’ll definitely be booking Chip from now on for all of our dog sitting needs!”
“Jodie was so patient with our energietic pups and they loved her! She played fetch with them and let them play with water when it was really hot. She even took time to brush them. Will defintiely use her again!”
About: I am a former RN... I've been around animals my entire life. My animals are like my children. My son Sam helps me.. he is just like me. We enjoy walking our dog and feed him excellent food. My animals have always been healthy and I am a responsible dog owner.I teach for a living now but I work from home 4 days a week and work at a local college 6 hours a week. I lived in Europe for many years... southern Germany where people train their dogs and take very good care of them. I am also a certified pet groomer, but I only groom my own pets now. I would love to help you out on the weekends or on holidays because I would not like to put my dog in a kennel either. I do not work on the weekends and am available. My son assists me with walking or playing with our pets. Our dog Lizzy would love to have someone new to play with. I have a farmhouse with a large yard that is partially fenced in. I crate my puppy at night and have a playpen during the day when we are not outside. My cats run around on all 3 floors.

About: As a proud cat mom to my two girls, Max and Ella, I know firsthand that cats are more than just pets—they are family and a source of deep purpose. Having cared for my own cats for over 5 years, I am highly attuned to feline body language and the unique personalities of different cats. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and needs a patient, calm presence, I prioritize making them feel safe and loved. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and dedicated to maintaining your cat's specific routine while you are away. :)
“Kristen was fantastic, as always! She does a great job of looking after my kitties and even gets my shy kitty to come out of her shell. She’s attentive and communicative and does a wonderful job!”
About: I pride myself in my responsibility and reliability! I’ve been taking care of all friends furry since I was 12, but have grown up with cats all my life. And I have tough skin, so don’t mind getting a claw to the arm when playing lol!
About: Since I was very young, I have cared for hundreds of cats at my family's foster home. In all that time, I have worked with cats of all ages, behaviors, and health conditions. Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and it would be a pleasure to share my love with your kitty!
“Leslie was so sweet to my little Luna! Cats of course aren’t always the most social of creatures but Luna took to Leslie right away! She sent me pics that showed Luna all snuggled up on her lap which made me feel good! I’d highly recommend and will definitely have Leslie back to watch my little kitty!”
About: I have loved all animals since I was a child & it has been my passion to work with them. I raised my 8 year old pittie since he was a pup & I love meeting & learning each unique personality. I currently work 2 days a week so that gives me 5 days off to help in any way possible! Feeding, walking, play time you name it! Unable to pet sit due to having my own dog, but I can come to the owners home & work with your fur baby in any way needed through out the day/week.
About: Thank you for visiting my profile! My partner and I love animals, especially dogs.

We are empathetic and energetic people, so your pet will get loads of love and playtime. I'm very good about bringing a dish and water with us while we walk in the heat. I am usually available all day! I would love the chance to meet your furry four legged friend A typical day includes plenty of playtime with my two boys, hanging out in my shady backyard, and relaxing on the futon in the AC My partner and I have a fenced in yard and two friendly excited pups to provide company! always keep water bowls fresh, filled, and cleaned. many trips outside for playtime and bathroom breaks. plenty of toys and fun to keep your pet(s) entertained and happy
About: I have cared for cats and kittens of all ages (including neonates). I am knowledgeable about cat behavior and their needs. I am experienced doing simple grooms (sanitary trims, paw trims, etc.) in the process of learning to do full grooms, I am experienced in administering most medications (oral, topical, etc.), nail trimming, bathing and more! I am also experienced with working with feral cats. I really enjoy finding toys for cats that don't have much interest in them and getting them to play! While making house visits I can provide some services for your cats: I will bring my own supplies. My tools are sanitized between clients. Lion cut or full groom: $20-$40 depending on toleration Cat sanitary cut and nail trim: $15-$25 Full groom, nail trim and bath: $45-$70 depending on toleration of the grooming process. Nail trim only: $10 Dematting, nail trim, and bath: $50 and up depending on the time it takes to work out matts and how tolerant your pet is (for severe matting I will recommend a full shave) If your pet is severely stressed during a groom, I may not be able to finish the process, or it may take more time than usual to help your pet adjust. I intend to keep my practices fear free. Fleas: If fleas are found, a $15 charge is added to your bill. This goes towards the process of keeping fleas from infecting my own animals upon my return home. All prices, on all services are subject to change due to time involved and your pets tolerance.
“Kayla is awesome! She helped us out with a very sudden trip to NY due to a death in the family. She did everything I asked, was great about texting with me anytime, and reassuring with sending drop-in pics. Kayla made a point to always give attention to our most independent/isolating kitty by reaching under the bed with treats or food and always sent me a pic of him hiding while our other was always out and about with Kayla. She even brought in mail and packages and turned lights off/on for me each day. ? Kayla is also always flexible which is perfect when leaving town, as sometimes plans or arrival times can change. We truly appreciated Kayla and will definitely book again!”
About: I have extensive animal handling knowledge from my time as an animal cruelty officer, my veterinary assistant schooling, and working at a care clinic. I have also worked with catching, vetting, and relocating colonies of feral cats.
About: I’ was raised on a small dairy/animal farm since I was a kid so I have lots of experience with dogs/cats. I have never not had a dog in my life… I’m very loving, caring and responsible. Trained puppies up to senior dogs with medical conditions that required meds like my own. I am currently not working and would love to share my home and my yellow lab, Mason and cat, Sophie with others. I have a nice size yard and a park just down the street. Quiet neighborhood. Dog friendly. I do not have children. I do have a crate if needed. There is also a long tie out that I use for my 2 year old yellow lab. I do have a house cat but she stays up stairs and likes to be alone.
About: I work for a board kennel and doggie daycare. I care for dogs everyday and have a lot of experience with a variety of different dogs, big and small. I've had dogs for all of my life and also dog sit for many family friends and colleagues. I'm very passionate about dogs and caring for them. I'd love to help take care of your dogs, whether just a walk or pet sitting over several days. Working in the kennel industry has exposed me to a lot of different dog needs and temperaments. I’d be happy to come meet you and your dog and go over everything that require during my visits! Working with dogs is a joy for me and I will surely treat them like they are my own.
“Our dogs did great with Milan for a weekend dog sitting! Milan was consistently on time and did great with keeping our dogs fed and taking them on walks. We really appreciate how well Milan communicated and shared pictures! That really gave us peace of mind while we took a weekend away. Our pups immediately were at ease with him when we first did our meet and greet, and were excited to see Milan each visit - even though they usually take a few minutes to warm up to strangers. He gave them plenty of scratches and loving when he dropped by and they were very relaxed and happy when we got back. Having Milan look after our pups while we took a weekend away was great for us, and we would definitely book him again, and would recommend him to anyone else!”
About: I have had pets for all of my life and have gained a wealth of experience along the way. For several years I worked at a pet boarding and grooming facility where I obtained the knowledge of light grooming, and administering medications such as insulin. During my time working at this facility I also learned how to handle pets that may be aggressive wether it was caused by food, toys, or anxiety. I currently have four dogs and two cats who I love dearly. I have also had the joy of taking care of many animals all the way from puppy/kitten hood all the way to the rainbow bridge. I know how hard it can be to find someone you can trust to care for your fuzzy family member, but I hope you can find that with me. If you have any questions please ask me and I will be happy to answer

Perfect for high energy dogs - Custards
“What an amazing young lady! Positive, concerned, kind and gentle! Willing to go the extra mile for Murray and us! She listened to us, gave us suggestions…this was our first time leaving Murray with anyone! Keely provided pictures of Murray and asked great questions the entire time she had Mur! Keely agreed to a meet and greet before her time with Murray and it went superbly well. She got down on her knees and talked to Murray. She gave him time to adjust to her and on our designated day Mur walked right up to her and gave her a kiss! It was great! It did our hearts gud! Mur is a senior dog and we are thankful to have found Keely:) She is and will be our go to person from now on!”
About: Hi, I’m Jamie, and I’m thrilled to bring my love for animals and my 18 years of experience as a Registered Nurse to the world of pet care. I know that your pets are more than just animals—they’re family. That’s why I offer personalized pet boarding and professional dog walking services tailored to meet the unique needs of each furry friend. I take a very limited number of animals at one time so that your Furry family member will become a member of our family while they’re here! As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to caring for your pets! Whether it’s a cozy staycation while you’re away or a fun-filled walk to keep them active, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. ** at this time I cannot accept intact male dogs** thank you for your understanding! I work part time, I am home the majority of most days so chances are I will have availability for you! I am flexible with days and times! Last minute plans? No problem! I have a large fenced in 1/2 acre partially wooded dog run. I have multiple sized crates and smaller fenced in areas as well with plenty of space for you pooch!

About: Hi everyone! Our names are Karen and Chad and we’ve always had a love for dogs since childhood. The thought of caring or rescuing a dog has always been top of our minds. When we got married, we adopted a greyhound racer. We had him for 7 years and lost him unfortunately due to cancer. Since we lost him, we’ve wanted to continue helping/caring for dogs and can’t think of a better way then helping others with their fur animals. We know the working world doesn’t always accommodate balancing out caring for our fur friends and work and would love to help with that! Please chose us to care for your fur friends whether it’s a walk or a overnight stay in our home! We will treat them with the utmost love and care! We are available daily as Chad stays at home weekly. Karen is available to help out on weekends. Please let us know how we can help! We have a nice back yard but do not currently have a fence (at this time). We can walk the dogs in our backyard with a leash and or take them to nearby parks. We do have a dog bed and dog water/food bowels with plenty of space in our 2200 sq.ft home.
“Highly recommend Deanna to care for your pet. She made certain my dog had a safe environment. The house is setup perfectly for guest dogs. Additionally, I felt like I received exceptional customer service and Deanna demonstrated distinctive pet care competence. My best Rover experience to date.”
“Honestly I couldn't ask for more. My pup came from a shelter with an unclear history. I found a sitter who is hitting every goal I looked for. She truly cares for my girl and I couldn't ask for more.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a kid. Trainer dogs, walked and played with and basically been a doggy baby sitter. Home full time with a kennel of our own, my availability is very good. I can be flexible to meet your needs! Overnights or weekends are fine! We have a fenced yard and 37 acres for leashed walks and room to roam. We are set up for dogs in the house as well as a kennel area for any dogs that need their own space!
About: Dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart, ever since childhood. While experiencing some major life changes, the compassion of these animals have really worked to keep my spirits up! I have 3+ years experience volunteering at the humane society, walking and playing with dogs, and cuddling cats! I recently fell in love with two little tuxies and adopted them, and a kitten! I am able to walk miles with the most active pups, and help warm up the stiffest kitty. I will help your dog work through any seperation anxiety by treating him with approved treats, toys, exercise and lots of loving. At the end of the day, to prevent any contagious germs/illnesses, I disinfect any toys, bowls, and blankets that may have been used by a previous dog. Transportation is never an issue. Availability is 7 days a week, times from 9:30am-10pm My schedule is quite flexible as I am currently searching for a work from home job so I can work and watch your pet at the same time. I will have time to relax with them, keep them busy on walks and lots of playing and cuddling. I will keep your pet as comfortable as possible and try to keep them on their routine so they are not too nervous. Having notes as little reminders is a great help when staying over for a few days.
About: I have had animals for 3 years. I had 4 rabbits and I’ve also taken care of newborn rabbits. I currently have 4 cats and 2 big dogs. I also have experience fostering newborn puppies and kittens. My love for animals is so large, I will do anything to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I have completely open availability because I am not working at all and just finished college. I can work any day, any time, even overnight if necessary. I am experienced with reactive dogs, I crate my own dogs so I am capable of crating and walking dogs, as well as feeding and watering animals as well as playing with them, and even giving medicine if necessary. Comfortable with picking up waste. I am able to exercise dogs mentally and physically because I do have some experience with training as well. I also love cuddles from all animals.
About: Hello! Thank you for considering our family to be a vacation stay for your dog! Below are some details about us, our home and our experience with dog sitting. About this sitter: I have been a sitter with Rover for about 5 years, and have loved it! My husband and I both work from home, me as a contractor and my husband as the founder and CEO of our music lesson business. Our work enables us to be flexible and home more than most, which we are extremely grateful for. We love animals and I have had dogs and cats my entire life. Our three children also love animals. They are very gentle and calm around animals, as we have taught them how to treat animals kindly and with respect, no pulling on tails or stealing toys here! Why I love dog sitting I got my first family dog, a LasoApso/Poodle mix, when I was 6, rescued from the shelter. Since then, I have always had dog(s) and/or cat(s), including one three-legged cat and later, an epileptic dog who had two reconstructive knee surgeries! Later in life, we enrolled a puppy we adopted into an intensive training and obedience program, in which we were also trained in proper dog handling. We have had dogs of all sizes, from a miniature poodle to a 100lb chocolate lab…all of which were lap dogs…even the giant lab! Meet my pets We have two 5 month old male kittens that get along great with dogs, and usually don't even pay them any attention. We have no other dogs. About my home and yard We live in a 3 story home with hardwood floors. We have an open back yard with a lead to make sure that our dog guests can safely enjoy being outside and still stay on our property. We do have steps leading to both the front and back door into the yard. My experience administering medication Yes, we can administer medication. Over the years I have had multiple pets with special needs which required medication. Our family loves animals and we're ready to love yours! Please feel free to contact us with any questions, we look forward to providing a pampered stay for your pet while you're away! We work from home so we will have plenty of time to care for and love your pet! We absolutely love having furry friends in our home and as part of our daily life. We try and keep things in our home consistent with how things are in the owners home. If the dogs get free reign at their house, they will have free reign here (as long as they are potty trained and house broken). We are also happy to use a crate if that is what they are used to. We do have a large dog crate here and plenty of toys, so there is no need to transport a crate. We have a lead in the back yard to make sure that all dog guests are safe and on our property during potty breaks and outside time.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, but currently, am a mom to 3 of them, so I know a thing or two… from >5 lbs to 100… I got you! I’ve been dog sitting for others for almost 5 years now, and actually just spent the last few months volunteering at a local Vet’s office… so I know doggy CPR now if needed! It’s officially SUMMER (yay) which means i’m free literally whenever! Call/message me and I can be there ASAP! ❤️ Monday, Tuesday, whenever, I got you! 🐾 I don’t offer services in my home, since my dogs are veeeery jealous when another is around to steal all the back scratches and belly rubs, but I can guarantee that they don’t mind when i get out of the house for a few hours 🤣 In your home, I promise to provide a nurturing environment, with the same structure and routine you’d force if you were there. Whether it’s overnight or two weeks, I’ll love on your animals like they’re my own!
“Hands down the best Dog walker I’ve ever had! The constant check in, the picture updates, everything. I was a little scared at first since my pup doesn’t do well with new people but from the pictures she’s sent me, my pup fell in love with Ms. Kristen. 10/10 will book again in the future!!!”
“Keely has looked after my dog before as a sitter, and I was so happy to have her take my pup for a walk recently. She’s always so kind, reliable, and clearly loves animals. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited every time she sees her! It’s such a comfort knowing that Keely already knows my dog, so I can trust that she’s in great hands. She always takes the time to give updates and really goes the extra mile. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Keely to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker or sitter!”

I’m a Zoo Science major with training in behavior observation, enrichment planning, and safe handling techniques. I also train service dogs, so I’m comfortable with structured routines, behavior cues, and dogs who need a little extra patience. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior needing slow, gentle care, I’m here to make them feel safe and happy. I’m currently a full-time student with plenty of flexible time outside of class. I’m available on weekends and throughout weekdays between classes, making it easy to fit in walks, playtime, or drop-in visits whenever your pup needs me. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. Whether in my care or yours, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment, follow routines closely, and give extra patience, love, and attention to build trust and ensure your furry friend feels secure.
“I can’t enough how grateful I am for Milan. Soft spoken and gentle Milan treated Lady with kindness. Lady did not do much cooperating. Sometimes she refused to leave the house! Milan took good care of Lady and I will certainly book with Milan again.”
“Jayme is so great with Luna. She came over to meet her before they started walking together which made me feel at ease. My girl is so so happy every time they walk together. I'm glad that I found her as I'm picky with who I allow near my baby. Jayme asked so many questions and listened when I was telling her about Luna. She's allowed me to feel at ease knowing that my girl is in capable hands.”
About: I have had pets for all of my life and have gained a wealth of experience along the way. For several years I worked at a pet boarding and grooming facility where I obtained the knowledge of light grooming, and administering medications such as insulin. During my time working at this facility I also learned how to handle pets that may be aggressive wether it was caused by food, toys, or anxiety. I currently have four dogs and two cats who I love dearly. I have also had the joy of taking care of many animals all the way from puppy/kitten hood all the way to the rainbow bridge. I know how hard it can be to find someone you can trust to care for your fuzzy family member, but I hope you can find that with me. If you have any questions please ask me and I will be happy to answer I am currently working as a shipping manager for a small factory but I would like to make caring for pets my full time job. I have an invisible fence with one and a half acres of area to roam. I have pet stairs leading to those hard to reach areas (like the couch or bed) for small or senior pets. I also have a cart to pull behind my bike if there are any pets that aren't so active but like fresh air. My cats enjoy the luxury of having their own bedroom so they can have peace from the dogs when needed. And of course I have a plethora of toys and treats. I am willing to make accommodations for special needs pets.
About: Hi there! I am currently a new math teacher and love dogs just as much as I love teaching!! I’ve been around dogs my whole life (and have loved every second). Im comfortable walking, feeding, bathing, playing, and keeping company with dogs of all different breeds and sizes. I currently work at a high school, so I’m available weeknights after 4PM and most weekends if I’m not traveling home to visit my family. In the summer, I’m free almost every day. I can easily keep your pet feeling safe in their own home by making sure it has love, attention, food, water, and lots of play time. It’s important to me to keep your animal in the environment it feels most safe in. I’m comfortable walking dogs if there is a leash and letting the dog go to the bathroom without a leash in a fenced in area.
About: I have taken care and loved animals for as long as I can remember walking. Young, old, on a diet? I can do it all! I am a full time student at Youngstown State University. I currently am on summer break, and free about all week except for weekends. There is lots of space for pets to run on our property, and I will be attentive at all times! I have watched dogs at others houses for years, along with taking care of my own animals at home! I have administered medication intake for animals, followed strict diets, and made sure they all get their energy out! I prioritize making sure the pets feel safe in the environment as my biggest heartbreak is an animal's sadness!
About: I’ve take care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. When your pets meet me they will sense I’m a friend. I love to be around animals and taking care of them. I can pet and brush your dog, go for walks, play with them, and follow your directions to feed your dog. If you give me a chance I know you and your dog will be happy with my care. I work part time from home so I have time to take care of your pets. I just need to know what times you want care and I can make my s heckle work around that. I’m very flexible and open to making things work. I’ll go to your home and make sure I get your dog on a leash before we go for a walk. If I’m just visiting I’ll make sure I enter your house and calmly greet your dog so he doesn’t get fired up. Then sit down and pet him and play. Then I can get him fed and we can play some more after that if he wants to. I try my best to keep your dog calm as we get to know each other and then we can play and make sure he’s taken care of,

“Keely took great care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my vacation which kept me at ease since this was my first time boarding. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”
“Margaret and Dermott kept our chocolate lab for us while we were away. They sent us pictures and daily updates on how he was doing. It was so reassuring to know he was in great hands! We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Jennifer was great with our dog Molly when we went away over the weekend! She kept us updated with pictures and messages and took her for lots of walks. Thanks for taking such good care of her!”
“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”
“Kristen just cared for our geriatric, high maintenance cat who has some health issues a second time. She was great again - clear communication, administered daily medication, sent photo updates. Would definitely recommend.”
“Thank you SO much for taking my boy on such short notice. He had so much fun. I am so glad he was able to interact with other pups and play as well. You took very good care of him! I will definitely think of you in the future if we need a sitter but will plan ahead. You are the best!”
“Excellent sitter. Kaitlin provided pictures throughout our dogs stay, and was quick with her replies to any question I might have. She has a wonderful fenced in yard. Will surely use her services again.”
“Chelsea took wonderful care of Duke, and I’m so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. When the weather was rough at drop-off, she was very accommodating, which immediately put me at ease. This was my second time booking with Chelsea, and she was just as attentive and thoughtful as before. It was obvious Duke was well loved and cared for in her home. I also really appreciated the care and play Duke received from her son — it was clear he was given lots of attention and affection. I felt confident knowing Duke was in such good hands and would absolutely have Chelsea as my go-to sitter in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter.”
“Deanna was a great sitter for my Labrador. She was very responsive to all messages and easy to work with for the meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. She had a dog of her own and can tell she cares about my dog as if she was one of her own. I would recommend her to others in the area and will use her again if I need the services while I live in the area.”
“Second time my kitty has stayed with Katherine and will most definitely be going back! She gives updates and sends pictures everyday. A wonderful sitter highly recommended!!!!”
“Jeanne is the best! I left my two Dalmatians with Jeanne over the holidays while my husband and I traveled to California. She sent us photos everyday of our doggies and responds very quickly through text! Highly recommend Jeanne! This is the second time we have left them with her and will continue in the future! Thank you for taking care of my babies so well Jeanne!❤️”
“Chip was amazing on such short notice! He accommodated us at the very last minute when we had some dog sitter plans fall through and I’d say he’s nothing shy of an amazing sitter! After 10 days, our pup came back extremely happy! He is very thorough, attentive, and communicated well. I’ll definitely be booking Chip from now on for all of our dog sitting needs!”
“Jodie was so patient with our energietic pups and they loved her! She played fetch with them and let them play with water when it was really hot. She even took time to brush them. Will defintiely use her again!”
