“Megan was wonderful! She was super accommodating and provided exceptional care for my dog who needed a little time to settle in. I received daily updates, sometimes more, and regular pictures.”
“As always, my dog arrived happy and left even happier. They always take great care of her and give her all the attention and walks she could ever want, will definitely use them again!”
“Johanny was so nice & welcomed me into her beautiful home. Was definitely a pleasure to meet her and to take good care of my little Coco. She sent me pictures & updates on how Coco was doing. I recommend her to anyone looking for a good dog sitter. I will be using her again when I need to.”
“Highly recommend Lorraine! We rescued our dog Westley from a kill shelter so he is very timid and skittish around new people. We also have never left him with anyone before. Lorraine was very patient with him and extremely compassionate and caring. She is prompt with message responses and updates. I couldn't have chosen a better sitter for Westley and plan on using Lorraine in the future!”
“Thank you so much Mayra for taking amazing care of my baby boy on this long stay. Mayra is amazing and i can tell by the pictures and videos i was receiving daily that Milo was in loving care. Thank you so much to Mayra and her family!”
“Amazing, as soon as I set foot in their house I felt comfortable leaving my dog here. Very considerate sitters and take great care of the dogs, you can tell they genuinely love dogs. I could tell my dog was happy and had a great time when I picked her up, I am happy I found a reliable and caring dog sitter! Will definitely be using their services for when we go on vacations or extended visits!”
“This is the first time we have had to leave our fur baby with someone other than family. Tristan was agreeable to a meet and greet to make sure we would feel comfortable with the arrangement. We received pictures during her stay with Tristan that put us at ease, knowing our fur baby was content and well cared for. Thank you, Tristan and Jen, for taking such good care of Zoey!”
“Tiffany was amazing with our little guy. Quick to respond and very eager to ensure that he was well taken care of. We got daily updates with pictures as well. Super happy and will definitely consider her again in the future :).”
“David is very awesome, had a great time with my dog and my dog had a great time with him, plus he is an amazing photographer. The pictures he took and sent to me from his stay are truly beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful memories.”
“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Jean took excellent care of my two pups! They are both young, full of energy and sometimes naughty. Jean took it all in stride. She really cares about their well-being and happiness. She gave them the love and attention that they needed. She also provided me with updates to set me at ease and allow me to enjoy vacation.”
“Brooke and Jeremy were excellent hosts! It was nice receiving updates and pictures during our dogs stay and by the looks of it he had a great time! We would highly recommend them and would certainly use again!”
“Michelle and her family are amazing. They took wonderful care of our 7 month old Great Dane puppy. Michelle is super knowledgeable about all things dog. Her and her husband are friendly, helpful people who truly care about the animals. I received multiple photos of my puppy throughout my weekend away along with some highlights on how she was doing. We will definitely be bringing our puppy back to Michelle.”
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”
“We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Sharon and her family. When we first met with Sharon all of out worries immediately disappeared. She is very kind and responsible. Our Cindy felt at home right away. We never had a reason to worry throughout our vacation as Sharon was always in touch. We received daily photographs and reports on how our pet was feeling. All our recommendations were followed. We were very happy with Sharon. Cindy even came home with gifts 😊 Thank you for taking care of our pet while we were away!!! We will definitely contact you again!”
“Our Cavapoo Rosa had the best time at Tracy's. She loved playing with Tracy's children and the whole family was just so nice. I don't think Rosa really wanted to come home! Tracy sent me updates and photos at regular intervals so I had no worries.”
“We are so lucky to have found Jessica to watch our dog while on a trip this summer. The pictures and updates were appreciated and it was clear our dog was also enjoying a vacation of her own!”

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated cat lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs.

I’m comfortable caring for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats, including feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, brushing, and administering basic medications when needed. I pay close attention to each cat’s routine and personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your cat is social, shy, playful, or independent, I provide patient, dependable care and treat every cat like my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your cat is in loving, reliable hands.

I have a cat of my own, have helped care for a friend’s kitten, and work with cats regularly. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, and giving lots of gentle attention. I’m also experienced in giving oral medications when needed. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I gave been around dogs and cats for 16 years! My neighbors, family members, and friends always relied on me to take wonderful care of their pets!

About: I am 24 years old and am looking for extra work this summer. I love animals and I have had dogs my entire life ranging in sizes. I’ve had pugs and a shih tzu as well as a black lab and a cane corso. I also have had several cats so I’m equipped and comfortable with them as well. I have multiple different handling experiences with different dogs with different temperaments. I have also taken multiple handling and training classes with a dog trainer. I prefer the smaller dogs but love them all and would give your pets the best experience. I love dogs and cats and am excited to get to know you and any of your pets. I am currently in the process of job hunting, so currently I have full open availability! I will update my availability if anything does change! While I do not do pet sitting in my house, I can assure that I will treat yours with the same respect I treat mine.
About: I have always had experience with dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and I know how to care for them. I have also had experience training puppies as I have had two of them. I feed and let my dogs out daily. I also make sure they get enough exercise and take them for walks as much as I can. We put one of my dogs on a leash while they go to the bathroom and let my other dog roam wherever she pleases because she knows the boundaries of the yard.
“For the first time ever, our cat wasn't traumatized by our vacation so Khadijah has my high recommendation! She kept trying to make friends with our antisocial kitty, took good care of him, our bird feeding, our plants and our home. She reported daily with photos which I really appreciated. She's responsible and caring and I'm grateful to her!”
“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”
“Emili was wonderfully patient with our cat, who did not dare show his face to her. Despite our cat's shyness, Emili made sure that he was well fed and taken care of. We're so grateful to her and thanks to her care we came home to a cat who missed us quite a bit. Thank you so much for taking care of our boy, Emili! :)”

“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!”
“Mike was really great with our pup! Our 8-month-old is still getting used to going to daycare, but Mike was really patient with her. His dog is friendly and was a good playmate for our girl, and his house is kept clean. We got a lot of updates, pictures, and videos, which was appreciated! Will be rebooking in the future!”

“Best dog sitting experience we have had! Our dog has separation anxiety, but you would never have known it! He took to Jeanne and her crew like he knew then forever. When I picked him up at the end of the day he was as happy as can be and did not stop wagging his tail. Jeanne made me feel at ease from the moment I met her. Thank you so much and we will certainly use Jeanne and her gang again!”
“I was very nervous leaving my new puppy for an entire day, but had no other choice. I found Lorraine on Rover.com. She was so very sweet to Bella, and I felt confident that Bella would have a great time spending the day with her and her husband. I know she treated Bella as if she was her own and loved her the way I do. I will definitely use Lorraine again and have no reservations in recommending her to others.”
“Lisa is THE BEST. Figgy had the best time on her gorgeous farm and with her sweet pups. Whenever we're in this area visiting our family we will be happy to come back to see Lisa. She treated our dog like her own and took excellent care of her. I highly recommend her for any sitting or boarding needs. Thanks Lisa, I hope we'll see you soon!”
“Michelle and her husband were very nice. This was our first time leaving Ace with a dog sitter and we were very nervous of how he’d react. They spent extra time with us to make sure we were comfortable with their home before leaving Ace there. Michelle also kept me updated and sent pics of Ace throughout the day. Ace came back happy and seemed as though he enjoyed his stay.”
“Lori is the sweetest person I have ever met!! She was extremely kind to not only me but my dog as well. She went above and beyond and was incredibly flexible and understanding. She treated my dog like it was her own. I will always book my dog at her place because I know my dog has a great time there :)”
About: I’m David, a dedicated Pet Pawtrait Photographer 🐾📸 and the owner of Charlie’s Pet Pawtraits & Boutique in the Lehigh Valley, PA. Caring for dogs isn’t just a job for me—it’s a heartfelt passion inspired by my beloved pup Charlie, who was with me for over 11 wonderful years. Losing him was tough, but it left me with an abundance of love 💙 I’m eager to share with other dogs through both personalized care and capturing their spirit through photography. I offer a boutique, home-like dog care environment 🏡 where I never take in more than 1–3 dogs at a time, ensuring your dog receives plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime in our spacious indoor gallery, and adventures on the nearby D&L Trail as well as numerous local parks 🚶🌳🐕. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and peace of mind are my top priorities—I treat every pup as if they were my own family. I’m also a proud dad to a mature 9-year-old who lovingly helps me care for dogs, adding to the warm and nurturing atmosphere 👧❤️. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a calm senior, or anywhere in between, I’m patient and adaptable to their needs. As a special thank you for choosing my care, I’ll send you beautiful photos of your dog enjoying their stay—and if you’d like, high-quality non-watermarked downloads of these photos are available upon request 🎁✨. This way, you get to see just how happy and comfortable your pup is during their time with us! In addition to care, I offer pet portrait sessions either in my studio or at your favorite location—and many pet owners enjoy choosing one of our recommended local spots near the studio for a special outing and photoshoot 🎞️🐶. I’m excited to meet your pup and provide a personalized, loving experience that truly sets us apart from typical kennel-style sitters. As the owner of our pet photography boutique and photography studio 🐾📸, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pet. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I prioritize making sure every pup in my care feels loved and well attended to 💙. My 9-year-old daughter, who is mature and gentle 👧❤️, is often excited to help out and meet new furry friends, adding to the loving, family-like environment. Pet care is truly integrated into our daily life and brings so much joy to both of us 😊. This balance allows me to provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime 🐕🎾, and peaceful rest moments for every dog, while also continuing to grow my photography passion and business. Your pets will be treated with the same love and care I gave my own beloved pup 🐕❤️—a love that was abundant and unconditional. I create a safe, nurturing environment 🏡 where every dog feels comfortable, valued, and truly at home. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with attentive, compassionate care that puts their well-being first 🐾😊.
“Brooke and Jeremy were amazing for doggy daycare. They were incredibly accommodating with my early work hours, which made everything so much easier for me. My pup tends to be pretty anxious, but they handled him with so much care and patience-it really gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and effort they put into making him comfortable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Mike was fantastic. He watched our boy while we took a rafting trip nearby. He made me immediately feel at ease knowing he’d take great care of our pup. He’s also in a great neighborhood that I’m sure dogs love to walk. Highly recommend.”
About: I love dogs of all ages and breeds! I enjoy caring for, cuddling with and playing with dogs in my home and fenced in backyard. While in my care, your dog's safety and well-being is my priority. Your pet will have lots of play time in my fenced in backyard. I am available to provide specific dietary and care needs. I will do my best to make your fur baby feel "at home". I look forward to meeting them. Feel free to drop them off with a favorite blanket, toy, snack, or bed. As a stay at home mom and dog owner, I am available to provide plenty of outside time, meet specific requests and care needs for your dog. While outside, your dog will be free to roam outside in my fenced in yard. While indoors, your dog will be free to get cozy on the couch.
About: I have been a dedicated dog dad for over 4 years. While I have experience managing a multiple dog household, I currently only have my resident German Shepherd at home during sittings. He is a "big baby" super friendly, well-socialized, and great at making guest dogs feel welcome. I live to make these 4 legged animals smile, you can be sure your pup will have a good time when I’m around! As a dedicated dog owner for over four years, I offer a safe and structured 'home away from home' for your pup. My household is perfectly set up for socialization, featuring my friendly, 'big baby' German Shepherd who loves making new friends. To ensure a calm and focused environment, my other resident dogs stay off site during bookings, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s managing high-energy play, providing gentle senior care, or maintaining strict feeding and medication schedules, I provide your dog with a reliable routine filled with backyard fun, mental enrichment, and plenty of cuddles. You can travel with peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for by an experienced handler who treats every guest like family! When a doggo stays with me, they aren't just a "guest" they become apart of the family. My goal is to keep their home routine so they don't feel the stress of your absence.
“Renata has been great so far in watching our 9 week old puppy while I work during the day! He comes home sleepy sometimes so we know he's getting enough playtime! We will definitely continue to use her when needed.”
About: Hi!! My names Kayla! I have my own dog named Franklim and a kitty named Milo! I go for daily walks and he would love a friend to accompany him! I am very flexible and am willing to do any accommodations! Let’s puppy/older dog run daily in a fenced yard with a bunch of toys! Normally I do wake up and let my dog run for about 2-3 hours :)). I have a personal ice maker for chewable cubes for the dogs! I do allow animals on furniture as they are part of the family! I do let the animals run around in a fenced in yard (supervised) I also do supply the owner with pictures every 2-3 hours to let them know how their fur baby is doing
“Absolutely Wonderful- I felt very comfortable leaving Cooper there for the day. I met Maria upon arrival, was introduced to her family and her dog. Maria was extremely nice/friendly. She sent me multiple photos after I left- letting me know he was doing well and was settling in. She was able to ease my dogs anxiety when I left by providing a loving environment and giving him a calming treat (provided by me-owner) I would definitely book with her again. Great experience!”
About: Hi!☺️🐾 My name is Katie and I have been a professional dog-walker, dog-nanny, cat-nanny & house-sitter for the past 9 years. My intention is to provide the most excellent pet-care and house-sitting experience for all my families! I work primarily around the Trexlertown- greater Lehigh Valley area. My sister and I share the responsibility of taking care of a 14 year-old rescue Papillon, Wembley and my time with him the past 5 years has completely changed the level of detail in the pet-care I provide.♥️ Caring for a senior pup with several scheduled medications has given me so much structure and sense of urgency around timing and planning- I love Wembley more than anything in the entire world and I know others feel the same way about their fur-babies. My goal is to provide the level of care I would want for Wembley. I am experienced with specialized animal care and strict schedule requirements. The pets that I’ve watched (including my own) have had restricted dietary needs, feeding time windows, scheduled medications, and as-needed emergency medication precautions, so I am comfortable with high maintenance and senior pets. ♥️ 🐾 I am currently available for day time dog-walking, dog-nannying, and house-sitting bookings. As of June-July 2026 I am very booked out and working an evening job so I have limited availability but as of August 2026 I will have much more open availability. Please reach out if you are interested in future vacation days (reach out as early as you can!) or seeking a regular dog-walker/ dog-sitter throughout the week. I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones! ☺️🐾♥️ I am open weekdays- with the exception of a couple other dogs that I walk around lunchtime :) Let me know what days/times you are interested in! I love playing with dogs like I’m one of them- I make fake growls and ruffs when we’re fighting with a chew toy. I also love talking to the cats and dogs when I’m doing things around the house- just to keep them mentally occupied, I’ll ask them questions like they could answer me. & I lovelovelove walks so I try to go out and walk with them as frequently as we can ✨

About: Hi! I’m a dependable dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate routines, basic medication administration, and giving extra patience and attention to dogs with specific needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just a calm companion, I provide loving and reliable care tailored to their routine. I treat every dog like family and work hard to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pup is in good hands. I’m currently a school teacher. So I will be available most days in the summer to care for your pet. This includes spending time with them, walking them, etc. I have 15 acres that your pup and I can explore. Mostly wooded, and does have a small creek. Your pup will get the opportunity to relax and enjoy the ability to either Lounge in the grass in the backyard or go for a walk through the woods.
About: I’ve pet sat for all kinds of pets including goats and horses. I have 3 cats and a lizard that I love very much and really enjoy meeting and caring for other peoples pets! I have a pretty flexible schedule to work with! I’m open to trying to accommodating whatever schedule you and your pet would need from me. I’m more than happy to provide whatever your pets need even if it’s a weird daily habit! I prefer to do a meet and greet so I can ensure that I get all the info needed to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you’re away.
“Khadija was great with my dog Mochi! Mo can be a handful due to reactivity to other dogs, and he's 70lbs of muscle that requires both strong, confident and gentle handling. Khadija handled him with ease, and he really took to her from day 1. He always came home super happy from his walks with her and we will definitely use her again. Thanks Khadija!”
About: I spent my youth training to be a vet and fostering dogs. I learned a lot at vet school, namely that I couldn't ever deliver the final act of compassion. So, I turned my attention to my true passion - caring for dogs! I have been dog sitting for over 15 years and I love it. Every new dog that I meet reminds me how much I love dogs. I am flexible to the needs of every dog I care for and will make their experience with me as similar to their home life as possible. I have two dogs of my own, but they LOVE meeting new dogs to play with. If your dog is not as keen to new friendships, I can separate them all with ease. I have only one hard line, I need to meet you and your dog before the stay. I have learned that it is the best way to ensure your dog's comfort in their stay. I did not always adhere to this and I have seen some very stressed out fur babies. I want your fur pups happy and healthy as much as you do! Thank you for your consideration. I work from home so, I will be with your dogs all day. If we have any grocery trips or daycare drop offs, they will be crated for those brief periods. We keep our dog-less activities to a minimum during pet stays. We have no fence and our dogs run off-leash. With your dogs, I will walk them leashed because dogs (like children) test boundaries. We also go to creeks and hikes very often, and your dogs will join us leashed (if you approve).

“Audrey is just amazing! She’s been walking my dog for 3 months and CoCo absolutely loves her and is so excited to see her. She waits for her by the window and runs to the door when Audrey shows up. I haven’t even needed Audrey except for a couple times - but I keep her regular twice a week because CoCo loves her so much. I’ve called Audrey a couple times at the last minute or to add an extra day and she always come through for me. I could not have met a more dependable, reliable, awesome, and trusted person to walk CoCo twice a week since moving here from OH! We love her and think she is great!”

Through this experience, I’m comfortable with medical care, senior pets, administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and handling animals with unique behavioral needs. I’ve also had animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to exotics, so I understand how different every species (and every personality!) can be. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with shy or anxious animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My partner Luca is also part of our Rover profile and shares this same passion for animal care. We have multiple pets together and work as a team to provide attentive, reliable care. Luca previously worked at the same clinic I’m at as a receptionist and veterinary assistant, and now works in a science lab where he also helps care for lab animals. His experience makes him calm, capable, and very comfortable handling a wide range of animals. What sets us apart is that we combine professional veterinary experience with genuine, everyday love for animals. Between the two of us, your pets will always have attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. We currently have cats, ferrets, mice and 1 bearded dragon of our own, and we hold ourselves to the same high standard of care that we would want for them. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because animals have always been a huge part of our lives. I work full-time, but I schedule my Rover services around my work hours so that every visit gets my full attention. I’m typically available before or after work for drop-ins, walks, and evening check-ins, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. My partner Luca helps provide additional flexibility. He is a full-time student and works part-time in a lab, with a schedule that tends to stay consistent for longer periods. Because our schedules often complement each other, one of us is usually available when the other is not. This allows us to offer more consistent and reliable care throughout the day. Even with busy schedules, caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy and make time for, and we never take on more than we can fully commit to. We primarily care for pets in our clients’ homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. As a veterinary technician, safety is always my first priority. We follow your pet’s normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while also keeping an eye out for any early signs of stress or illness. We’re respectful of your home, trustworthy with your space, and committed to creating a calm, clean environment for your pets while you’re away. We provide regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I have always loved all animals since I was a young kid. My mom fostered dogs while I was growing up, teaching me to care for and love pets. I have lots of experience with a wide variety of pets with different personalities. I’m a medical student that just finished up with school. I have the summer free before starting my surgical residency and looking for ways to stay busy and help out others while spending time with four-legged friends! I will care for your pets as they are my own- with lots of love! I will do my best to keep their environment and routine similar to if you were there with them.
About: I am 24 years old and am looking for extra work this summer. I love animals and I have had dogs my entire life ranging in sizes. I’ve had pugs and a shih tzu as well as a black lab and a cane corso. I also have had several cats so I’m equipped and comfortable with them as well. I have multiple different handling experiences with different dogs with different temperaments. I have also taken multiple handling and training classes with a dog trainer. I prefer the smaller dogs but love them all and would give your pets the best experience. I love dogs and cats and am excited to get to know you and any of your pets. I am currently in the process of job hunting, so currently I have full open availability! I will update my availability if anything does change! While I do not do pet sitting in my house, I can assure that I will treat yours with the same respect I treat mine.
“Sydney was always prompt at arriving for our dog's walk. She gave Chase extra attention since he was apprehensive about his new substitute walker. You can tell Sydney loves dogs and enjoys spending time with them. She will be my first choice whenever I need another substitute walker for Chase! Definitely recommend her.”
“Marian was very willing to provide her dog walking services on such a short notice after I had a previous plan backfire on me. While I couldn't meet her beforehand, we put in a plan for her to get my keys so she can meet Bandit and take him for walks. She was very professional and from what I can tell, Bandit enjoyed his time with her and the walks. Highly recommend Marian and will definitely be using her for future needs!”
About: I've grown up with animals my entire life. From when I was born to now at 34, I’ve always had a dog, cat or both in my home. MY pets are MY family and I treat them as such. They get love, they get pets, they get spoiled, they are my babies, just as my human children. I care for your pets as if they are my own. I KNOW how important it is to keep them safe and well taken care of. As a former social worker I will also be in communication with you, send pics, update how the visit went, etc. Im trying to make this a full time job! So, I’m available for a lot of walks and love for your pets! Here for you and your fur baby(s)! I follow instructions provided (if provided). If I'm unsure of something I will reach out and ask instead of just assume. As a previous social worker, I will be in communication with you as much as you’d like.
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.

“Megan was wonderful! She was super accommodating and provided exceptional care for my dog who needed a little time to settle in. I received daily updates, sometimes more, and regular pictures.”
“As always, my dog arrived happy and left even happier. They always take great care of her and give her all the attention and walks she could ever want, will definitely use them again!”
“Johanny was so nice & welcomed me into her beautiful home. Was definitely a pleasure to meet her and to take good care of my little Coco. She sent me pictures & updates on how Coco was doing. I recommend her to anyone looking for a good dog sitter. I will be using her again when I need to.”
“Highly recommend Lorraine! We rescued our dog Westley from a kill shelter so he is very timid and skittish around new people. We also have never left him with anyone before. Lorraine was very patient with him and extremely compassionate and caring. She is prompt with message responses and updates. I couldn't have chosen a better sitter for Westley and plan on using Lorraine in the future!”
“Amazing, as soon as I set foot in their house I felt comfortable leaving my dog here. Very considerate sitters and take great care of the dogs, you can tell they genuinely love dogs. I could tell my dog was happy and had a great time when I picked her up, I am happy I found a reliable and caring dog sitter! Will definitely be using their services for when we go on vacations or extended visits!”
“This is the first time we have had to leave our fur baby with someone other than family. Tristan was agreeable to a meet and greet to make sure we would feel comfortable with the arrangement. We received pictures during her stay with Tristan that put us at ease, knowing our fur baby was content and well cared for. Thank you, Tristan and Jen, for taking such good care of Zoey!”
“David is very awesome, had a great time with my dog and my dog had a great time with him, plus he is an amazing photographer. The pictures he took and sent to me from his stay are truly beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful memories.”
“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Jean took excellent care of my two pups! They are both young, full of energy and sometimes naughty. Jean took it all in stride. She really cares about their well-being and happiness. She gave them the love and attention that they needed. She also provided me with updates to set me at ease and allow me to enjoy vacation.”
“Brooke and Jeremy were excellent hosts! It was nice receiving updates and pictures during our dogs stay and by the looks of it he had a great time! We would highly recommend them and would certainly use again!”
“Michelle and her family are amazing. They took wonderful care of our 7 month old Great Dane puppy. Michelle is super knowledgeable about all things dog. Her and her husband are friendly, helpful people who truly care about the animals. I received multiple photos of my puppy throughout my weekend away along with some highlights on how she was doing. We will definitely be bringing our puppy back to Michelle.”
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”
“We are so lucky to have found Jessica to watch our dog while on a trip this summer. The pictures and updates were appreciated and it was clear our dog was also enjoying a vacation of her own!”
“Missy is the best! I averaged about four photos every morning and then again later in the day that she sent to me. My very active Boston terrier had an absolute blast! Thank you, thank you thank you!”
“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”
“Laura was very friendly, great with our dog Paris she kept us up to date with how she was doing, she sent pictures and text updates. Will definitely use her service in the future.”
