“Excellent Sitter. Probably around my 5-6th time returning. My pup always returns home happy and tired from all the playing and running outside. Will continue to use”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Sherry was so kind and attentive to our dog. She had us do a meet-and-greet, which helped my dog to go to her when we dropped her off. She sent us pictures and videos while we were apart. She walked our dog frequently. We are grateful for her kindness to our dog.”
“I boarded with Aaron for the first time and certainly this may not be th last time as Aaron was very professional and polite. We did a meet and greet and he ensured he has all the relevant information he would need to take care of my Daisy well. I was provided regular updates, pics and videos for Daisy while I was away and it sure was a good experience for Daisy to get a pup cup and enjoy it! There is good play space for the dogs in the fenced backyard also! I would highly recommend Aaron for his boarding services. Thanks!”
“Rita is absolutely fabulous, she’s so sweet and considerate. Our pup LOVED staying with her, we even got regular photos and videos! She’s an amazing communicator and her house and yard are so cute!”
“Miles loves spending time with Brian and his family (people and dogs). Brian is communicative, reliable, very easy to work with, and clearly loves animals. He takes excellent care of our dog, and I would absolutely recommend him and trust him with my pets. We're very glad to have found you. Thanks!”
“Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!”
“Marissa was fantastic with my dog! She took her on multiple walks and even to a dog park. I loved receiving pictures of all their fun adventures and cozy snuggles on the couch. Honestly, I was a little worried my dog might not want to come back home with us! 😂”
“Danita and her family were amazing with our dog Finley. She updated us frequently and sent photos of our dog settling in and getting comfortable. I knew our dog was in good hands, was well taken care of, and got plenty of walks and belly rubs. I would 100% recommend Danita to care for your dog!”
“Ariana was AMAZING with our 2 boys. She was pleasant from the start all the way to the end. They were so happy when we picked them up. She sent photos of them on walks, playing, relaxing and just enjoying the company of such a warm hearted person. HIGHLY recommend her!”
“This was our first time using a dog sitter through Rover and Patti did not disappoint!!! I received multiple pictures each day with an update on how my pup was doing. Patti opened her house up to him and even took him to the park, on walks, etc. I’ve already set up another time for our little guy to stay. Thanks so much Patti!”
“George was fabulous with Cannoli! He was super responsive and sent me adorable photos of my baby throughout the stay. Cannoli enjoyed playing with George’s dogs who are also sweet and lovable! Would definitely book with George again!”
“Ami and James took on a real challenge with my 4 month old Bernedoodle, Cooper. They and their crew took great care of him, sent tons of pictures, and took him on great walks. Cooper is happy to be home, and we have found a great sitter!”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“Jordyn is fantastic with dogs! Her calm and loving personality was a great match for our hyper “still-a-puppy” at three years of age goldendoodle. She is one of the best sitters we have had! She made our dog feel at home in her home and we could not have asked for more. I absolutely recommend booking with her!”
“I have used Rover for several years and have had some really good providers. However Juliana, Cooper, and Betty Boop are amazing and my Pup felt right at home. I can honestly say I have found Bubblez new home away from home. I can now travel and not get anxiety leaving my Fur baby. Juliana is warm, caring and loved my Pup as if she were her own. Bubblez did not come home disheveled which made me feel much better. I highly recommend Juliana! ❤️”
“Yolanda was great with Mars. He gets a little anxious and she allowed time for Mars to become comfortable. She took him out for a run and sent us photo updates.”
“Steffani is a sweetheart, and her and Josh took great care of Hazel!! They were flexible with our needs to drop off and pickup too. Hazel was super comfortable at their house and enjoyed the shady backyard. We would book with Steffani and Josh again!”
“Pooja was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From the very beginning, I was impressed by how thorough she was during our meet and greet. She asked all the right questions about Bentley's routine, personality, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special needs, which immediately gave me confidence that she truly cares about the dogs she watches. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated, communicated well, and sent photos that helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. Bentley can be energetic and very attached to his people, but Pooja was patient, attentive, and loving with him. It was clear that she took the time to make him feel comfortable and treated him like one of her own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pup is the best feeling, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Pooja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs!”
“Wow! Our second experience with Bronwen and couldn't be happier. We were away for over 2 weeks and didn't have a worry in the world. Rascal had the best experience we could hope for. TLC on a daily basis, home-cooked treats and a wonderful playmate or two to keep her active and entertained. She came home looking happy, healthy and relaxed! Photos on a daily basis were an added bonus and made us so grateful for the exceptional care she was being given. Bronwen loves animals and it shows in everything she does. She is a godsend to us and our little girl! Can't wait to book again!”

“Matthew provided excellent care for our two cats. He posted daily photos, which I greatly looked forward to each day while on vacation. He has excellent communication skills, and I know my cats will miss him! I would definitely recommend his services to any other cat owner that is looking for a cat sitter!”
“Cassandra was so wonderful - she always sent me plenty of pictures and even helped me when I needed a last minute visit due to an emergency! Thank you so much for giving such amazing care to my kitties!!”
About: Dependable dog sitter. Love all types of dogs. Our dog is part of the family and yours will be too! Lexi is our 5 year old Labradoodle and she very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! My kids are grown so I have more time on my hands. We have never had to put Lexi in a kennel thanks to family and friends and want to help make sure other dogs can stay at home too! Looking to make dogs feel safe and happy is my goal. I love to take dogs on long walks and play ball with them. We have a large yard and lots of dog toys! Have helped dogs with invisible fence training and learning not to pull when on walks.
“Impending snow storm while away … what should you do?? Not worry! Jennifer took the initiative and time to secure my cats ahead of the storm just in case travel to my place might not be possible on the scheduled (storm) day. A sitter who cares about my cats welfare during a storm … priceless!!”
“Amanda was awesome, following all instructions and providing updates and photos after each visit. She took care of my cat while I was away and gave him lots of affection! Thanks, Amanda!”
“Maya was great with our 2 dogs. She was reliable and on time for every visit. We were away for a long weekend and were very busy. Her check ins and pictures of the dogs she sent showed me they were good and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely ask her again.”
“Elisabeth is a wonderful cat sitter - attentive to detail and communicative. She was a good sport in dealing with my finicky fur babies, especially when it came to giving medication to one. They're in good hands with her!”
“Eleanor did an amazing job taking care of our cat Jax that is facing kidney issues. Jax requires multiple oral medicines as well as an IV injection daily, neither of which he is a fan of, but Eleanor was able to swaddle him, administer his medicines, and make it as painless as possible. Would definitely recommend.”
“Klyde and Kimber loved having Justice visit them. Klyde looks so happy in the pictures. Wasn’t sure how he’d be but he warmed up fast! Loved the pictures and the description of how she spent the time. Looking to lots more visits.”
“Alyssa took great care of our cat while we were on vacation! She came everyday and gave him food/water, cleaned the litter, and played with him. When we got home, he was happy and calm. Thanks Alyssa!”
“Jeannette has been our cat sitter previously and has always done an excellent job of taking care of our two cats. She is very trustworthy, thorough and thoughtful. She also is very observant of their habits and health and will alert us if she thinks there is an issue. Jeannette has earned high marks in our family!”
“Maya did an amazing job her first time with Luna! Luna takes some time to warm up, but Maya had her settled and loving her attention within the half hour. Will definitely have Maya back soon!”
“Ciana did a fantastic job to care for our cats while we were away. She was always prompt each day, spent time to bond with the cats, and kept things tidy around the house and sent us pictures each day. 5 stars!”

“Danita’s family were very kind and loving to our dogs. We had a last minute need for care and they were very quick to respond and agree to care for our dogs. I highly recommend them!”
“Dante was an amazing caretaker! I received photo updates throughout her stay as she got to enjoy playing with his lil Frenchie. I received a lovely report upon pickup too, as she was smiling away!! She loved playing with tennis balls AND she didn’t tear up one of them!! THAT IS A MIRACLE!! My tennis balls have never survived a Belinda! Once Belinda and I arrived home, she went straight to sleep and snoozed all night. She had a GREAT day! Thank you so much, Dante, for your flexibility and for taking great care of my best girl!!”
About: I have taken care of animals for over 25 plus years both as a pet owner and pet sitter. I love all animals (especially DOGs!!) and I am happiest when I get to spend time with my furry friends I am a retired scientist who enjoys spending my free time gardening, walking, practicing Pilates, and—most of all—caring for animals. I truly enjoy dog walks, park visits, and building meaningful relationships with the pets and families I serve. I provide dependable, compassionate pet care, including regular visits, dog walking, and transportation to veterinary appointments to help keep your furry family members healthy and happy. Services Offered: Dog Walking Drop-In Visits Boarding House Sitting Medication administration (including injections) Special care upon request, such as diapering, assisted feeding, and cleansing With over 25 years of experience as a pet owner and caregiver, I have cared for animals with allergies, cardiac and pulmonary disease, heart failure, dementia, and incontinence. I am attentive, patient, and comfortable managing complex care needs. Caring for animals is both a blessing and a privilege. I pour my heart into every pet I care for and treat each one as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a secure, calm home environment where pets are closely supervised at all times and treated like family. My boarding services include regular neighborhood walks and park visits, always conducted safely using secure leashes, pet-appropriate gear, and routes suited to your pet’s needs and energy level. Playtime is structured, supervised, and balanced with plenty of rest, affection, and cuddling. I strictly follow each pet owner’s feeding instructions, schedules, and care preferences to maintain consistency and reduce stress. I am experienced in administering medications, including oral medications and injections/shots, and I do so carefully and confidently according to your veterinarian’s guidance. I maintain a clean, pet-safe home, free from hazards, and I take extra care to ensure doors, gates, and shared spaces remain secure. Small pets are welcome to enjoy free access to the main living area, including cozy couch cuddling, while always being monitored to ensure their comfort and safety. I prioritize positive experiences, gentle handling, and clear communication with pet parents, so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for, safe, and truly loved while you’re away.
“Super friendly and caring! Weiyu kept me updated about shiloh throughout the day. Took him out multiple times and showered him with love and hugs. He was very happy when i picked him up. Will definitely be bringing him back.”
“Blitz had a wonderful time with Melissa and Cody! He had a full day of play which makes him a happy dog:) He loves the time in their fenced in yard to play with others but also the down time napping in a comfortable spot. We will definitely use them again”
“Cindy was an amazing sitter! My dog had a sore paw when I dropped her off, and she took such great care of her. It was clear my dog was comfortable and well looked after. When I picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. I’m really grateful for Cindy's care and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting services!”
About: I’ve had rescue dogs since I was a child. I get a lot of joy out of fostering dogs and helping them find their furever home. I also grew up with cats and love a sassy attitude. Looking to soak up some good pet energy this summer! I’m not working this summer, so I’m home all day and ready to entertain your pet. I love taking walks so your dog will get at least two walks per day. I spend a lot of time in the pool, so your pet can enjoy the yard as much as they want. Enrichment toys, watching birds and squirrels, naps in the sun, the occasional pup cup, games of fetch, and zoomies galore. I have a big, fenced in yard. I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s what they prefer. Willing to accommodate. Will reward with Puperoni!
About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have only guinea pigs now, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.
About: I got my first dog when I was 18 years old. She was the sweetest pup I have ever met! Since then dogs have become an irreplaceable part of my life. I have cared for puppies, senior dogs & few dogs with behavioral needs. I have fostered dogs through the years and learnt how meaningful this experience can be. My last foster was a young adult who was a year old. Open to pets all day subjected to advance notice/short notice. I'm mostly home so I can be flexible with your routine and needs. A small heads up is always appreciated. I live in an apartment complex which is 5 mins away from 2 dog parks. I'll take your dog for daily exercise and morning, afternoon and evening. I live in a neighborhood which has lots of space to walk for regular/short walks. I have a 7 year old mild tempered female dog who will provide excellent care and comfort while you are away. I can easily crate your dog if needed, I have a large crate.
“Yolanda was a great sitter for Rooney! We got plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. It was great knowing he was in good hands while we were away. Highly recommend Yolanda, thank you!”
About: Back home, I rescued and cared for several dogs while helping them recover and find loving, responsible families. I have always felt a deep connection to animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I learn quickly and follow instructions carefully to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their happiness and well-being. I work part-time and online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I am available throughout the week and can provide regular attention, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I do my best to maintain their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I personally prefer house sitting because pets are often happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special instructions provided by their family. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while providing attentive, loving, and reliable care. If needed, I may be able to host pets in my apartment on a case-by-case basis, but my primary focus is providing care in the pet’s own home where they feel safest and most comfortable.
“Jason is amazing! Our pup Lucy is very shy around both people and dogs and Jason has provided the perfect combination of comfort and fun for her to come out of her shell more. His dog Ava is playful, sweet and well trained. Jason communicates well and sends pictures/videos throughout the day. Highly recommend Jason! Your dog will be happy and well cared for.”
About: I’m a devout animal lover with three dogs of my own (including a senior) and one cat. Caring for animals is truly one of my favorite joys in life! My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home when they’re in my care. My dogs range in age from 5-11 years and weights of 11lbs to 55lbs. My cat is 7 years old and a tabby. My senior dog has lung cancer so I’m also experienced in delivering oral medication, round the clock care and attention, and moving at their pace. Your baby will be well taken care of. I work remote so I am able to give your dog lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog will be able to take potty breaks every two hours in the fenced-in yard and spend time outside. We typically go for walks in the early morning and late evening. My Rover calendar is flexible updated daily so that I can support any urgent needs, where necessary. Boarding & Daycare: My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home! I only board one dog at a time so that I can give them adequate individualized attention all throughout the day. You will not find a sitter in Wilmington that is as attentive as I am. My pets are kept separate during boarding. Your dog will have access to the entire first floor and the fenced in-backyard. I have a dedicated bedroom for boarding where I can sleep with dogs who may have separation anxiety to ensure they are comfortable. Drop-in visits & Walks: I‘ll take my time getting to know your dog and make sure they’re comfortable with me being there. I like to sit with them for a few minutes before and after each walk to feel out their energy levels. On walks, I recognize that this is their social time so I go at their pace and let them get plenty of sniff time. I am very respectful of your home and will follow your instructions closely.
“Cathy and Amy were wonderful and took great care of our Doggo! They are super friendly and create and joyful environment for the visiting dogs. As soon as I heard my dog was relaxed in the dog bed outside the bedroom and the kitchen I knew we found great sitters for our dog:)”

“Cassandra was incredible. We used her 2x a day for a week, and she was extremely reliable, always early, and always left pics & reports! She was awesome and we will certainly look to her first if we ever use Rover again. Can’t recommend Cassandra enough!”
About: My beloved pet Cookie just passed away at age 18. I gave her plenty of love and care and will do the same for your dog/s. Can’t wait to snuggle with your pet and treat him or her like Family. I live in the Garnet Valley School District and have lots of time to give your dog happy hellos, soft snuggles and loyal Friendship. I have experience in letting dogs out from at their home and taking dogs for walks when owners are away on vacation. I love making dogs happy with kind words, food/treats, sitting next to them and rubbing their belly. My home is perfect for boarding because I live in a quiet, traffic free area and it safe to walk or board your adorable pet. I also have a gated deck to enjoy fresh air when the weather is nice. If your preference is to leave your furry friend in your home, I would gladly come out to your home to look after your pet/s in their familiar environment.
“Alana was wonderful with my pup Max. The communication was great, I was able to see each walk and had detailed updates on him daily. I would highly recommend Alana. I hope to use her in the future if she is available!”
“Dante was amazing! Our faith was terrified of him even growled at him, but he did not give up and was able to take her out for her walk. We got home from our day out and she was fine. He’s very professional and responds very quickly! I highly recommend !!!”
“Alex is awesome and we're lucky to have found her! She has excellent communication, was great with our dog, and had perfect availability for us. Even from the first time meeting Zoey, she seemed much more involved and responsible than most of the other dog walkers we've used. She was super patient with our dog even when she was jumping a bit, and she came right on time as we has requested. We will absolutely use her again!”
“Maya was amazing! I needed last minute help with my five year old pup. She communicated daily how each walk went with photos and descriptions! She was so patient with my father who was at the house as well. Couldn’t recommend Maya enough! Max is looking forward to her next visit soon!!!”
“Thank you, Gavin. French Fry gave you two paws up. He's very responsible, very reliable, and very attuned to my dog's needs. It will definitely use him again, and I have actually recommended him to my mom for her dogYou will definitely use him again and I actually have recommended him to my mom for her dog.”
“Lashae was the best Rover experience we have had. She was amazing with our dogs and our neighbors (who had tons of positive comments). The best part of working with Lashae was the improvement in our dogs’ health! They have more energy and walk farther!! Lashae is the best! Can’t wait to work with her again!”

About: My love for animals of all kinds began in 6th grade and has only become more expansive as I have continued to care for the pets of my friends and neighbors. My senior dog is almost 18 years young so I am well versed in going above and beyond! As an educator my timing is flexible, especially for summer! I am looking to help families as another Rover.com pet sitter helped us with our senior dog. I will work with your dog's needs so that you are comfortable leaving and know that I am dedicated to keeping your pet happy and healthy. I have a lot of experience with keeping dogs who miss their families happy! As someone who teaches tiny humans I have a lot of experience in building trust. I know that some dogs have anxiety and I look to you in learning your dog's preferences and individual needs!
About: My personal experience has consisted of hands-on settings caring for dogs through pet sitting, volunteering at an animal shelter, and helping raise and train my own dog from puppyhood. At the shelter, I regularly cared for and walked both dogs and cats, gaining knowledge and experience with a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I’ve also sat alongside a professional trainer with my own dog, watching taught me how to set appropriate boundaries, understand behavior, and use patience and consistency. In addition to basic training, I’ve taught fun commands like “roll over” and “paw.” Overall, I’m confident handling dogs with different personalities and needs. I prioritize being both patient and attentive while maintaining structure and safety. Your pet will be treated like family! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also send regular updates so you never feel out of the loop. I love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I always make sure they are always in a safe, supervised, and stress free environment. I pay close attention to them, follow any instructions you may provide, and keep walks and visits secure while aLeo enjoyable. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away.
About: My name is Eleanor. In the last year we recently lost our own senior dogs who were 17, 16 and 15. We fostered and subsequently adopted a corgi puppy who we nursed through a PDA heart surgery. He is a happy, healthy pup and LOVES being with other dogs. I am also the mom of five children who are 13, 12, 9 and 5 year old twins. I have provided pet care services for many years but started back up after the addition of our twins :) My husband works from home which allows me to come help you with your furry friend! I am on the board of a senior dog rescue called Senior Dog Haven and Hospice and ran it for 10+ years until I recently passed on the reins. We rescue dogs aged 7 and up that have found themselves homeless later in life. I love animals, especially elderly ones, and have dedicated my life to their care. I have fostered almost 100 senior dogs in the last 10 years and have a ton of experience with special needs dogs. I would love to come love on your dog and spoil them anytime you need me! We require your furry friend to be kid and dog friendly as they will get lots of love from our pack of children and our puppy, Gus Gus! I am a stay at home mom with a husband that works from home. Our schedule is extremely flexible and someone is almost always home. I have a one acre fenced in yard that has a small dog and large dog fenced in area. I love animals and will always take the very best care of them! We often host doggy day care days to tire out pups! We take caring for your furry loved ones seriously, and carry our own insurance coverage for your added peace of mind!

We did a meet and greet and he ensured he has all the relevant information he would need to take care of my Daisy well. I was provided regular updates, pics and videos for Daisy while I was away and it sure was a good experience for Daisy to get a pup cup and enjoy it! There is good play space for the dogs in the fenced backyard also! I would highly recommend Aaron for his boarding services. Thanks!”
“Miles loves spending time with Brian and his family (people and dogs). Brian is communicative, reliable, very easy to work with, and clearly loves animals. He takes excellent care of our dog, and I would absolutely recommend him and trust him with my pets. We're very glad to have found you. Thanks!”
“Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!”
“Marissa was fantastic with my dog! She took her on multiple walks and even to a dog park. I loved receiving pictures of all their fun adventures and cozy snuggles on the couch. Honestly, I was a little worried my dog might not want to come back home with us! 😂”
“Ariana was AMAZING with our 2 boys. She was pleasant from the start all the way to the end. They were so happy when we picked them up. She sent photos of them on walks, playing, relaxing and just enjoying the company of such a warm hearted person. HIGHLY recommend her!”
“This was our first time using a dog sitter through Rover and Patti did not disappoint!!! I received multiple pictures each day with an update on how my pup was doing. Patti opened her house up to him and even took him to the park, on walks, etc. I’ve already set up another time for our little guy to stay. Thanks so much Patti!”
“George was fabulous with Cannoli! He was super responsive and sent me adorable photos of my baby throughout the stay. Cannoli enjoyed playing with George’s dogs who are also sweet and lovable! Would definitely book with George again!”
“Ami and James took on a real challenge with my 4 month old Bernedoodle, Cooper. They and their crew took great care of him, sent tons of pictures, and took him on great walks. Cooper is happy to be home, and we have found a great sitter!”
“Jordyn is fantastic with dogs! Her calm and loving personality was a great match for our hyper “still-a-puppy” at three years of age goldendoodle. She is one of the best sitters we have had! She made our dog feel at home in her home and we could not have asked for more. I absolutely recommend booking with her!”
“Steffani is a sweetheart, and her and Josh took great care of Hazel!! They were flexible with our needs to drop off and pickup too. Hazel was super comfortable at their house and enjoyed the shady backyard. We would book with Steffani and Josh again!”
“When I first met Laura, I was impressed by how she handled my fearful and sometimes reactive dog. Her calm and confident demeanor and her caring attitude quickly won over Calvin. Within minutes of meeting Laura and her dog, Wally, Calvin was literally eating out of her hands. Laura not only gave me peace of mind during my vacation by sending me photos of Calvin and keeping me updated, but she also made Calvin feel safe and part of her family. I will definitely use Laura's services again!”
“Joesph was a great host for Chico. He kept us updated the whole time with pictures and videos. Chico came back relaxed and clam especially since he was able to play with other dogs. Would recommend Joseph for anyone looking for dog sitting.”
“Loved her! She kept me up to date daily with a photo, video, or comments regarding my dog, Sadie. She was attentive to any concerns I had in the beginning as my dog has food allergies, and she assured me she would follow my instructions regarding her care completely. I will be using her again!”
“The absolute best rover! Extremely communicative and we knew our dog was in great hands entire stay. We appreciate the attention to Myla! We also felt very comfortable leaving Myla in Kate's hands during thunderstorms (which she is scared of) due to Kate's previous experience, and Myla did great. Thanks so much. 10/10 !”
“My pups had a great time, made themselves at home and were well cared for. Loved receiving pics and seeing how well they were doing was comforting. Will definitely book again! Thank you”
“David took such good care of my dog this past weekend, when I brought Knuckles home he cried as if he missed him . David sent daily photos which made me so much more comfortable knowing that my dog was happy. I will definitely be a returning client.”
“Nick and Katie worked us in last minute due to a funeral out of state and went over and above in their care of our dog Benny. We came home after several days away to a very happy dog! Can’t say enough good things about Nick and Katie!”
About: I have a house where I can provide individual or group care for dogs. I co-own a dog named French Fry, who has been a significant part of my training experience. I am available for boarding on weekends, starting Saturday morning and continuing until either Monday or Tuesday evening. Additionally, I have availability during certain holiday periods. I have a partially fenced-in yard and a metal crate available for dogs if needed. I follow any instructions that pet owners provide. I have a peace and calm environment for dog care.
