“This was first time Timmy, our 5 year jackapoo, was ever away from home without us. Timmy is very much attached to us and we’re very protective of him. My mother-in-law just turned 100 and my wife arranged a large family gathering for a 4 Day Florida celebration where her mother resides. We scheduled a meet snd greet with Amy and Patrick, Timmy and ourselves. We immediately felt that Timmy would be in good hands and Amy and Patrick disappoint. We received pictures and videos daily of Timmy on walks, playing and at bedtime. They followed our directions for feeding and treats to the letter! We highly recommend Amy and Patrick if you are looking for loving and caring folks to take care of doggie while you are away. They’re the best!”
“Angelita is 10/10! Her care of our Boston terrier was superb. Communications around our reservation was seamless and pleasant. When our travel was delayed, Angelita was flexible with our drop off time - and pick up time. The outdoor space is perfect for pets and there were a few other puppies for Lucky to play with! We saw multiple pictures of her over the 24 hours we were away. When we picked Lucky up, Angelita even had a gift baggy for us!! She had disinfected our dogs bed and washed her bowls. You can’t ask for better than Angelita. Your pet will be in great hands.”
“Betsy did a wonderful job taking care of our girl! She was super accommodating to all of her specific needs and made sure she felt safe and comfortable. It was such a relief to know Remy was in good hands and with someone who treated her as one of her own. I definitely recommend booking with Betsy. Remy is already looking forward to her next stay!”
“Krista was awesome. Met with Krista & her dogs before Bella stay for the weekend. That was great to get to know her & Krista to meet Bella. Communication was great & Bella was a happy girl”
“Vicky is a wonderful sitter and I highly recommend her. She asked lots of great questions to get to know Daisy and her routines before meeting her. During the stay Vicky shared pictures and videos to keep me updated. The communications let me know Daisy was being well cared for and having a wonderful stay.”
“Deb was terrific, her home was wonderful wirh a nice large yard set far back off the road. She was very accomodating considering our last minute request for an overnight stay for our pup Dyson. He came home pretty happy!”
“Cindy and April hit it off immediately! So kind and attentive. She took her for many walks on the wooded trails behind their house. She sent us pictures of April enjoying her mini vacation. We definitely will use her again!”
“Nanci and her husband were wonderful and you can tell they truly love dogs. Molly seemed to enjoy being with them and they took her for regular walks and kept in contact with photos. We definitely plan to use them again!”
“Ashley&jerrell was GREAT, it was our 1st time leaving our pup for a couple days and they made it soooo easy, and comfortable for all of us. Too sending us pictures and videos and quick response when we wanted to know how he was doing. Overall just Great 🫶 thank you”
“Genalind was communicative and understanding of schedule changes with the snow storm. I liked working with her, and it seemed like my dog enjoyed her time with her too!”
“Sujeong & Changsun were extremely attentive to our dog. Cooper had a great stay! They sent us updates throughout the night which kept us more at ease as Cooper can be rather anxious at times. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter in this area!”
“Amber is a great dog- sitter! She sent us pictures and videos often, of our dog, with updates on his status. She took him on lots of adventures! He was so well cared- for! Thank you, Amber!”
“Giselle was amazing with our dog, Henry. She stayed in touch the whole time we were gone, updating us with pictures and videos. Henry was in such a great hands. He probably got more attention then he does at home! She took him for many walks, and found his favorite spot to be scratched. We absolutely recommend Giselle and will be calling on her again.”
“This is the second time we have boarded with Ms. Anna - I cannot say enough praise - she is amazing with our high energy Husky! She sent updates and photos and genuinely loves animals. She is our go-to caregiver :)”
“Nova seemed very comfortable staying with Jaideep and family. He sent several updates a day and it was very nice knowing that she was happy with them. I am rebooking for another trip and definitely feel better knowing she is in good hands.”
“Alexis was very easy to work with and communicated well with us. She took great care of our dog while we were away and updated us with texts and photos. We would definitely recommend her! Her kids were an added bonus for our dog to cuddle and play with!”
“I booked a very last minute week of overnight boarding for my 6 month old puppy Puck. D and B were both great and clearly well versed in puppy training issues. Nice family home. Puck even got to sleep with their 11 child every night! They sent photos daily with updates and accommodated my schedule changing for his drop off and pickup. I will definitely be using them again.”

“Bri was great with my 2 cats!! She was willing to learn how to give an insulin injection and did great giving them!! I came home to happy, purring cats that were well taken care of! I appreciated the updates and pictures with each check-in too!! Thanks Bri!!”
“Danielle was so great with our cats, she went above and beyond to take good care of them while we were away. She noticed that one of our cats had a swollen eye, took him to the vet and made sure he got the care and medication that he needed while we were gone. The cats loved her and she uploaded so many sweet pictures of them for us. I highly recommend her!”
“Laura was great with my two kitties while I was away! one of the cats needs medication twice a day, and Laura was able to successfully give her all of them, in addition to lots of cuddles. Her communication was great too & I loved getting the pictures!”
“Melissa is terrific! She took excellent care of my cats and was also nice enough to water our plants while we were out of town. She did a great job, and we would definitely work with her again. Thanks, Melissa!!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats, young and old, for over 20 years. I have experience with administering oral and injectable medications. Cats deserve just as much attention and care as dogs! In addition to feedings and litter scooping, I’m also happy to play with your cat and brush them as well. If you need anything more specific, please reach out!
“Isabel did a fantastic job with my cat! She did everything that I asked her to do and more, and I know that Venus thoroughly enjoyed her time with Isabel. I cannot recommend her enough. She is responsible, thoughtful, caring, kind, and communicative, everything that I look for in a pet sitter. An easy 5 stars, and I would highly recommend Isabel for your pets!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Natasha made it a great experience 😊 She gave me daily updates with pics of my kitty, and even watered my plants and brought in my packages. Thank you Natasha!!”
About: QUICK HEADS UP: My partner and I are planning to move sometime in 2026. We don’t have a solid timeline yet. Also, I am currently back in school and this may mean my daily schedule looks a little different at times, but everything I am learning directly benefits the dogs in my care. taking courses to become a Canine Behavior Consultant.Please please be patient with me during this transitional year. And don’t worry we’re only moving about 20 minutes away, so all my regulars will still be comfortably in my radius! ❤️ BEFORE YOU BOOK PLEASE READ THIS ❤️ For stays longer than four days and for holidays the rate is higher and I want to explain why. This is not a nine to five job. It is a twenty four seven commitment. Most visiting dogs cannot be left alone at all, and because of that I miss a lot. I skip family events. I rearrange appointments. I lose sleep when dogs are anxious or cannot settle their first night. I stay up if someone is vomiting from nerves. I cancel plans when a dog needs more support than expected. I spend weekends inside when other people are out living life because a pup needs constant supervision. I put your dogs above everything else in my personal life, including my own family at times. I only take one family pack at a time. Your dogs get my full focus and a safe space without the chaos that comes from mixing multiple families. I take them on real hikes, give them real enrichment, and use high quality human grade treats because visiting dogs need both movement and mental work to settle in a new place. I even go as far as renting out private land for dogs who are leash reactive or for pups who need a huge fenced in area with tons of acres to burn off anxiety and energy in a safe way. I share the smiling pictures and the fun adventures, but there is a lot that happens behind the scenes to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and stable. This level of care takes real time, real sacrifice, and real dedication, and that is why I am firm in my pricing. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and honestly… they’ve shaped a huge part of who I am. I live with my Italian Greyhound pretty much 24/7 (he has separation anxiety and I wouldn’t have it any other way), so I’m very used to the “velcro dog” lifestyle. Because of him, I’m super tuned into the little things.. their routines, their quirks, their sensitivities, and all the ways they try to communicate. I also grew up with Dobermans, so I’m no stranger to big, smart, emotional dogs who need confidence, structure, and someone who actually pays attention. That upbringing taught me patience, consistency, and to always advocate for the dog in front of me. I’ve had all sorts of animals in my life..even my two skinny pigs who recently crossed the rainbow bridge. They were tiny, but trust me, they had huge personalities and fit right in with visiting pups. Between my own dogs, my extended family’s dogs, and the endless stream of personalities I meet through boarding, I’ve gotten really comfortable reading different temperaments. Cuddly lap dogs, anxious shadow followers, high energy explorers, the “I’m independent but also please never leave me” types. I love them all and adjust to whatever they need. I’ve also worked with dogs who aren’t always easy around others. I take things slow, keep everyone safe, and create an environment where every dog can relax and feel secure. Safety and understanding always come first. At the end of the day, every dog who stays with me becomes part of my little crew. I’m not a kennel! They live life with me. Walks, snuggles, routines, the whole thing. Your pup will be cared for exactly how I care for my own: with intention, patience, and a lot of love. ❤️ Dog boarding is my full time thing now. No side jobs and no juggling. This is truly what I do every day. The dogs are part of everything I am doing, whether I am folding laundry, watering plants, or working out in the yard. When the weather is warm we are outside a ton getting fresh air, exploring, and just living life together. A few times a year I take short breaks to focus on my own dog Luigi, and to reset my mental health. It keeps our home running smoothly and makes sure every dog who stays with us gets a calm, consistent, happy environment. When I am at my best, your pups get the best. I know what it feels like to hand your dog to someone else and hope they truly understand them. That is why I take safety so seriously. Quality always comes before quantity in my home. I am very selective about how many dogs I accept at one time, and most of the time your dog or dogs will be the only ones staying with us. On rare occasions, this may include a dog who has already stayed with me multiple times and has an emergency come up. In those situations, all pet parents involved are notified and asked for permission before anything is confirmed. I have a fenced in yard and I am always outside with the dogs. When we drive they are buckled into a harness every single time. I carry first aid in my car and in my hiking backpack because being prepared matters. I use Apple AirTags when we leave the house so I always know where your pup is. If your dog is leash reactive or nervous I plan ahead. I research quiet trails, low traffic times, and when needed I rent private land so it is only us and there are no surprises. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your dog is safe, understood, and protected. Trust is earned, and I show it through every decision I make.
“I've never felt so relaxed on a trip knowing my pets were being taken care of and safe. I could definitely tell there was genuine care for my pets. Thank you so so much.”
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was 7 years old, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve loved and cared for 3 cats and 6 dogs of my own, giving me experience with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I began pet sitting at 16 and later expanded my experience into animal shelter and rescue work at 23, where I learned the importance of patience, trust, and compassionate care for every animal. At home, I have a sweet corgi named Sgt. Tibbs who is truly the light of my life. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, because I would want the very same for him. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away with plenty of attention, affection, and tail wags included! I currently work full time in Reading, but outside of work hours your pets will always be my top priority during their stay and care. I’m available during both weekdays and weekends, and I make it a point to give every pet plenty of love, attention, playtime, and comfort while their owners are away. I understand how important consistency, communication, and trust are when leaving your pets with someone, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. I believe in putting your pet’s comfort, trust, and well-being first. For that reason, I offer care in your home only, where your pets feel the safest and most comfortable. Staying in their familiar environment helps keep their routine consistent, reduces stress and anxiety, and allows them to receive loving care while still feeling at home.
About: My name is Jennifer Martinez. My love for pets is what caused me to enter the pet sitting world. As far back as I can remember I have always loved and been around animals. I come from a dog loving household and have gained experience by watching the dogs of family and friends. I have studied animal care in college and have hopes to one day become a veterinarian. I plan to also receive my dog training certification in the near future. In me you will find someone that is loving, caring, patient, compassionate, and most of all hardworking. When pet sitting, my goal is always to build a relationship with your companion, and to provide a safe and loving home that your companion will love.
About: I've had pets all my life and can't imagine my world without cats and dogs! Play time and walks with my dog are the best time of day! I'd love to help out with walks or drop-ins to make sure your fur baby feels the love ❤️. During the school year, I'm available some evenings and most weekends. In the summer, my schedule opens up a lot! I'm available most days June-August. I visit client's homes and can do a play session, feed, water, fetch, extra pets, etc. I can also do walks - 30 or 60 minutes!
About: I started fostering kittens when I was around 5, I fostered probably over 200 kittens with the local humane league. I used to take my most well behaved orange cat around to schools and do presentations for the humane league about spaying and neutering, and trying to get the kids at the schools to convince their parents to adopt shelter kitties/kittens. I frequently took in kittens that her various coworkers or friends, or my friends found, raised them and found them homes. I've seen every type of cat and always get them to warm up to me quickly. I'm great at taking care of elderly cats, too. I was taking care of my 19 year old baby full time until she recently passed. I'm currently caring for my other 19 year old baby, too. I would love to meet your kitty and find out their favorite place to be scratched, petted, and their favorite way to play!
“Sydney took great care of our two cats and our house while we were away for the weekend. She kept us well informed with plenty of updates (at our request!). She’s very professional and she left our place looking better than when she found it! We would absolutely trust her to care for our kitties and home again.”

“Angelita was super friendly, energetic, positive, and welcoming this week. Our dogs were happy to get to her place and begin exploring every morning. Thank you, Angelita, for five great days!”
“Ashley did a fantastic job caring for my dog, while I was away for a day. Bailey was so anxious to stay with Ashley, and I know she was given excellent care and lots of attention. I loved the texts and the pictures that were sent to me, giving me peace of mind. I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone. She deserves a 6 star rating for all of her efforts!!”
About: I've haven taking care as long as I can remember since youth. I have experience working with pets of all ages. I treat every pet like my own family. I live in a smoke free home. No kids or children live with me. I have a back yard with ton of space as well as a front porch with ton of spacing for play area. I currently do not have any pets at the moment since March, since my dog passed away. I taking the time to learn their personally, routines, and specific needs so they feel safe and comfortable. I'm reliable, communicative, and detailed oriented. I can provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can always have peace of mind. I make sure your pet gets personalized care and attention every step of the way. I'm currently working part-time during the weekend remotely from home. I'm extremely flexible with early mornings, evenings and weekends. Which allows me to accommodate different routines and last-minute needs when possible to accommodate your schedule and your pets schedule. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or my clients home, always focusing on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In my home I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I prioritize maintaining the pet's normal routine since they're most comfortable in their own environment. My goal in both setting is to make pet feel safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own.
About: I have taken care of all types of dogs especially my own and they love me and I love them. I just love them so much. I always fall in love and they fall in love with me. It never fails.

“Mai was wonderful with our 1 year old rescue and took great care of her while we were in town for our daughter’s college graduation. She has a beautiful space for pups and is so kind. Highly recommend Mai!!!”
“Krista has dropped in and taken care of our dog and also our dog has done doggy daycare with her- both were great experiences! Krista is dependable and sent frequent check ups. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Ashley was the best; professional and loving to our Mochi. She kept us updated with daily photos and videos and records of Mochi’s eating, walking etc. She’s a great communicator! Mochi loved going to her house as Ashley has created a lovely environment where pets can roam freely while being supervised”
“My little boy loved daycare at Heather and Spencer's. He romped with her poodles, took a nice snooze, and had kisses galore for Heather. Already booked our next play date.”
“My dog Ireland warmed up to Kellyann when I dropped her off today. Ireland.has never been in a home setting before for daycare. Kellyann kept me informed throughout the day with updates and pics of Ireland. This really helped me to feel secure about my "baby girl" staying there.I would highly recommend contacting Kellyann to take care of your pet!!”
“D was amazing!! She was available last minute for us and took such good care of our boy. Charlie adores her. If we travel up here again, we will definitely be contacting her! Thank you D!! 🐶🐾”

“Boots had a fantastic stay with Danielle and Brianna! They were incredibly kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. He spent the day with their four dogs and had such a great time socializing and playing—we could tell he felt comfortable and happy in their care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such a welcoming and attentive environment. We’d absolutely trust them with Boots again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters.”
“Charissa was amazing with our last minute planning and willing to babysit our fur baby. Our pup loves attention and affection from anyone and everyone but he felt completely at home within her home and that’s the best feeling when you know your pet is doing well. 10 out of 10. Would recommend.”

About: What sets me apart is my professional animal-handling experience and my ability to work confidently with pets of all sizes, personalities, and needs. I spent two years working as an equine veterinary assistant, where I gained hands-on experience monitoring animal health, safely handling and restraining animals, recognizing signs of illness or discomfort, and working in fast-paced situations. I also have extensive experience caring for and training my own dogs, including large breeds. I understand that every pet is unique, and I tailor my approach to fit their individual personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is a playful puppy learning good habits, a senior pet needing extra patience and care, or a dog that is nervous around new people, I focus on creating a safe, positive, and stress-free experience. I am comfortable with administering medications, reinforcing basic training and good manners during walks and visits, and providing detailed updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. I have a lot of time on the weekends to walk dogs but I also have some time in the mornings for a dog or two monday-thursday In your home, I follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I keep up with feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication instructions, and lots of love. I always pay attention to their body language and make sure they’re happy, relaxed, and well-cared for while you’re away.
“I’ve had such a wonderful experience with Billie! She is consistently punctual, incredibly kind, and communicates well. I always know what’s going on thanks to her thoughtful updates, and she’s great about letting me know of any scheduling changes well in advance — usually at least a week ahead, which I really appreciate. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in caring, reliable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely wonderful with pets!”
“First time using Rover, and Stephanie made it a stress free experience. She offered to meet with our dog (Callie) first, prior to booking, to get a feel for her and her routine. Callie had a great time on her walk and was a happy camper.”
“Kianna has been with us now for a few weeks, and we are so happy! We have an emotionally fragile rescue and Kianna has been great with her! Kianna is professional, on time, friendly and patient. We could not be happier!!! Thanks Kianna!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have been caring for animals since I can remember. I watched many different breeds of dogs while in college. I’m available weekdays for walks, and weekends for dog/puppy sitting. I love all animals and have cared for many different breeds of dogs. I’m flexible so let me know what your pet needs. I have lot of experience with pets and walking dogs. I have no pets that I live with so any dog is welcome. Just let me know what your dog needs.
About: I started fostering kitten when I was around 5, and have fostered over 200 kittens with the local humane league. The last 4 years of my life were spent caring for my childhood cat full time who passed at 19. I'm great at dealing with cat personalities, I've seen all types while fostering, and I'm especially good with scared or shy cats, and great at caring for elderly kitties. I've had dogs all my life, one or two always since I was 10. All were big golden retrievers/labs, all quite big boys, but I love all types of dogs. I'm going to be available full time to take care of your pets. Until recently, I was taking care of my own elderly cat full time as she needed lots of care. Now I'd really like to help out other peoples pets with the knowledge and experience I've gained throughout my life. Give them a good pet and checkup every time I see them to make sure nothing hurts/stands out. I can do whatever else your pet usually needs too. I'm great at getting shy/mean cats to warm up to me, and I'm great at giving cats medicine.
“Patience is the absolute best. She has watched our dog multiple times and he isn’t easy but she always makes it work! Also, last time she was here we had a horrible maintenance issue on a holiday and she let us know immediately, grabbed a neighbor for help, and called our emergency maintenance and we were so thankful she went above and beyond to keep our pup safe and our house in great shape. Thank you again!”
About: I have worked at a local animal hospital as a Veterinary Assistant the past 2 years. In this role I take appointments, handle and care for both cats and dogs, and assist the other veterinary staff. I am Fear Free Certified, meaning I took a course about animal behavior and how to best reduce stress on your pets. I have lived with dogs, exotics, and small animals my entire life and would love to help you out with any and all of your animals! I have experience with both large and small breed dogs having owned them myself, and regularly walk them. I dog walk as well as pet sit both cats and dogs in the area. I volunteer at a cat shelter in my free time, giving me some extra experience with rescue cats! I have volunteered at the SPCA before, walking the shelter dogs there as well as caring for the cats. I have also volunteered at a Rabies Vaccine clinic, helping the clients and their pets. As someone who has worked with pets of all shapes, sizes, and ages, I would be happy to help with whatever you may need! Im currently a college student, so I would be most available on weekends. However week days can definitely be made to work depending on when I am needed! I am happy to perform whatever tasks needed to keep your cat or dog comfortable. I am able to take dogs out on a leash or let them go in a fenced in yard, whatever they are used to! I am happy to walk and play with them for whatever duration you would like.
About: Hello! My name is Danielle Martin. I have a master's degree in School Psychology from Millersville University and I work at a local school district. In my spare time, I enjoy being outside, cooking, and of course, spending time with all the doggos! I currently have a 6-year-old Bernese Mountain Mix, named Ryker, who I adopted in May 2020. Best quarantine decision ever! Previously, I have owned two Great Danes, so I have experience with large breeds. As a dog sitter, I aim to spend as much time with your dogs as possible, so that their time spent away from you is a pleasant one. If the dogs are up for it, I love taking them on walks and hikes, playing with their favorite toy together, and of course, snuggling and relaxing together. Since starting with Rover, I have met so many amazing pups of all ages and sizes. I also have experience with cats, small pets, birds, and reptiles! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I am currently not working for the summer (one of the perks of being in public education!), which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine and adjust my availability to meet your pet’s needs for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I am not providing in-home sitting at this time. When at a clients home, I am respectful of the property and aim to leave the home in the same (or better) condition as when I arrived.

In those situations, all pet parents involved are notified and asked for permission before anything is confirmed. I have a fenced in yard and I am always outside with the dogs. When we drive they are buckled into a harness every single time. I carry first aid in my car and in my hiking backpack because being prepared matters. I use Apple AirTags when we leave the house so I always know where your pup is. If your dog is leash reactive or nervous I plan ahead. I research quiet trails, low traffic times, and when needed I rent private land so it is only us and there are no surprises. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your dog is safe, understood, and protected. Trust is earned, and I show it through every decision I make.

“This was first time Timmy, our 5 year jackapoo, was ever away from home without us. Timmy is very much attached to us and we’re very protective of him. My mother-in-law just turned 100 and my wife arranged a large family gathering for a 4 Day Florida celebration where her mother resides. We scheduled a meet snd greet with Amy and Patrick, Timmy and ourselves. We immediately felt that Timmy would be in good hands and Amy and Patrick disappoint. We received pictures and videos daily of Timmy on walks, playing and at bedtime. They followed our directions for feeding and treats to the letter! We highly recommend Amy and Patrick if you are looking for loving and caring folks to take care of doggie while you are away. They’re the best!”
“Angelita is 10/10! Her care of our Boston terrier was superb. Communications around our reservation was seamless and pleasant. When our travel was delayed, Angelita was flexible with our drop off time - and pick up time. The outdoor space is perfect for pets and there were a few other puppies for Lucky to play with! We saw multiple pictures of her over the 24 hours we were away. When we picked Lucky up, Angelita even had a gift baggy for us!! She had disinfected our dogs bed and washed her bowls. You can’t ask for better than Angelita. Your pet will be in great hands.”
“Betsy did a wonderful job taking care of our girl! She was super accommodating to all of her specific needs and made sure she felt safe and comfortable. It was such a relief to know Remy was in good hands and with someone who treated her as one of her own. I definitely recommend booking with Betsy. Remy is already looking forward to her next stay!”
“Krista was awesome. Met with Krista & her dogs before Bella stay for the weekend. That was great to get to know her & Krista to meet Bella. Communication was great & Bella was a happy girl”
“Vicky is a wonderful sitter and I highly recommend her. She asked lots of great questions to get to know Daisy and her routines before meeting her. During the stay Vicky shared pictures and videos to keep me updated. The communications let me know Daisy was being well cared for and having a wonderful stay.”
“Deb was terrific, her home was wonderful wirh a nice large yard set far back off the road. She was very accomodating considering our last minute request for an overnight stay for our pup Dyson. He came home pretty happy!”
“Cindy and April hit it off immediately! So kind and attentive. She took her for many walks on the wooded trails behind their house. She sent us pictures of April enjoying her mini vacation. We definitely will use her again!”
“Ashley&jerrell was GREAT, it was our 1st time leaving our pup for a couple days and they made it soooo easy, and comfortable for all of us. Too sending us pictures and videos and quick response when we wanted to know how he was doing. Overall just Great 🫶 thank you”

“Giselle was amazing with our dog, Henry. She stayed in touch the whole time we were gone, updating us with pictures and videos. Henry was in such a great hands. He probably got more attention then he does at home! She took him for many walks, and found his favorite spot to be scratched. We absolutely recommend Giselle and will be calling on her again.”

“I booked a very last minute week of overnight boarding for my 6 month old puppy Puck. D and B were both great and clearly well versed in puppy training issues. Nice family home. Puck even got to sleep with their 11 child every night! They sent photos daily with updates and accommodated my schedule changing for his drop off and pickup. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Super nice I’m sure Annabelle loved her stay!! Communication at its finest!!! It was Annabelle’s first time staying with a stranger and Alexis made her feel at home!! would book with her again❤️❤️❤️”
“We are so happy with the care Laken provided for our 2 yr old (+) Australian Shepard. This was the second time she watched him and this time it was for two weeks. We returned to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We greatly appreciate the updates and photos we received while away. It's a huge comfort knowing he is in such great hands and has also made friends with her dogs. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“I would definitely recommend Sarah for watching your dog. She took such good care of my Murphy while I was away on an unexpected work trip. Sarah sent lots of pictures and updates. Murphy seemed right at home there on her big comfy couch.”
“Amanda was great! She took good care of our dog and kept us up to date on how she was doing. Amanda was flexible with pick up and drop off. We will be booking Amanda again!”
