“Monica took great care of my dog, Lusia, while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and I highly recommend her as a responsible and caring pet sitter!”
“Lindsey and her family took excellent care of our dog, Willow for a 1 week stay. We received daily photos and comments of how her trip was going, which made us feel in the loop while we missed our girl. Would recommend to others who need a safe, loving home for their dog.”
“We strongly recommend Nelia, Brett, and Family. Our dog had the best boarding experience ever with them. We got regular daily updates, and he was always very happy during the visit. He was also sad to leave them at the end of the visit. We will definitely board with them the next time we are out of town.”
“Courtney is wonderful with my dogs. I can always go away and feel comfortable leaving them with. I appreciate every thing she does for them and I know they will be safe and well taken care of.”
“Our older cat is afraid of her shadow and keeps her distance from people she doesn’t know. Audrey was patient and gentle with her. She sent me pictures and notes every day. I like that she works from home so your pet is not left alone very often. And her adorable and very friendly kitten is happy to be a playmate or can be kept separate if needed. Give Audrey a try. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Our dog had a great time at Victoria's home. She was amazing with updates. We received several videos every day. Our dog was sad to leave her place at the end of his stay.”
“Emily and Patrick are absolutely incredible! They took such wonderful care of my girl Bunny. When my trip was unexpectedly extended due to a flight cancellation, they were so flexible and accommodating. Throughout the weekend they kept me updated with photos and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t be more grateful — thank you both so much!”
“Tia loved my Dash like he was her own. Dash was very well taken care of and loved. I received daily updates with pictures and videos. Tia is also very accommodating. Would highly reccomend to everyone!”
“Sammie absolutely loved her vacation with Kaitlyn. We received at least one picture a day of our princess & she always looked happy. When we arrived to pick her up she was excited to see us but she was not stressed. I would highly recommend Kaitlyn.”
“We had a great experience with Julia! She was professional, communicative, and clearly cared for my dog like her own. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My pup came back happy and relaxed. Would definitely book again and highly recommend! 🐾”
“Raeann was the best, although his stay was only for a day, our pup loves Raeann! She is so full of love and joy and our pup sensed that from our meet & greet and during his stay! Raeann is so very welcoming and warm-hearted, a perfect fit for our sweet cuddler pup!! Thanks Raeann!! ❤️”
“Samantha was FABULOUS! My dogs seemed so relaxed and at home with her and her family! I will 100% send my dogs in their own vacation with Samantha the next time my family and I go out of town! 🐶🥰”
“We could not have found a better dog sitter than Cassandra. Our old dog Pippi was a challenge - multiple accidents - yet Cassandra was so understanding and tolerant! And her children were great with Pippi, giving her belly rubs and lots of attention, so much so that she practically purred.”
About: I'm a huge animal lover - big and small! I've had dogs and cats my whole life. We have a sweet cat who absolutely loves every dog that comes through our home. We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them. After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.

About: I have about two years of experience caring for cats and am comfortable administering medications, including insulin injections. I'm not one to shy away from a challenge—I have been able to hold and manage cats with strong personalities while making sure they receive the care they need. I love getting to know each cat's unique personality and I always try to respect their boundaries. I understand how important personal space can be, especially for cats, and I let them set the rules for interactions. Whether your cat wants lots of cuddles or prefers quiet companionship, I'm happy to provide the care and attention they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them patience, love, and attentive care. I would love to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. 🥰
“Katelyn did a great job checking in on our kitties while we were out of town! She sent photos of each one during her visits and texted us updates on their well being. We're already planning booking her for our next weekend away.”
About: A couple of months after we married my husband adopted our first dog, Sandy, and I’ve been hooked ever since. That was 26 years ago. Both of my sons are adults now so I have free time to focus my attention on your baby. Your baby will have my undivided attention. My property is fenced and I will accompany your baby outdoors. We can play fetch or simply keep each other company. I will do what it takes to make your baby comfortable and happy.
“Cassandra and her children took great care of our cat when we were on vacation! They gave him lots of playtime interaction and pets during each drop-in visit. Cassandra also took care to keep our cat's bathroom and feeding areas tidy. We really appreciated the text updates and pictures during each visit. It was a positive first experience using Rover and we will definitely reach out to Cassandra to care for our cat again in the future. I would highly recommend her - thanks Cassandra!”
About: Cats have their own unique personalities, and I enjoy caring for everything from playful, social cats to quiet, independent seniors. I have experience looking after older cats, including cats as old as 21, so I understand the importance of patience and maintaining a consistent routine. I make sure cats have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and a calm, comfortable environment while their owners are away. I pay close attention to each cat's behavior and preferences, giving attention and playtime when they want it while always respecting their space. My goal is to help your cat feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for.
About: With a degree in Zoo Science and veterinary clinic experience, I bring a level of medical and behavioral expertise that typical sitters don't have. Whether your cat is highly energetic, deeply shy, or requires specialized medical care like oral medications or injections, my clinical background ensures they are completely safe, understood, and treated with the precise care they need.
“Grace was patient and calm with Bailey, who’s a bit skittish and unsure with new people. Bailey relaxed around her quicker than she does with most people. Thanks Grace!”
About: Now serving Coraopolis/Moon/Robinson/Oakdale/Imperial! I've spent over twenty years caring for dogs and cats of all temperaments — from energetic pups to quirky seniors. My own adopted fur family has taught me patience, communication, and how to meet each pet where they are. Whether it’s a walk, a brush, or a belly rub, I focus on keeping pets active, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every animal like they’re my own — because that’s what they deserve. Got an odd schedule? I’ve got you! Life gets messy — last-minute trips, half-day errands, or just a few hours away. That’s where I come in. My availability shifts week to week, but that makes me the perfect fit for one-off needs, unusual timeframes, or gaps others can’t cover. If our calendars line up, I’ll gladly stop by for a walk, visit, or check-in. Flexible, caring, and here when you need me most -so long as our schedules sync up! I'd be happy to chat and determine if our availability works for what you are looking for, or if you'd prefer to keep as a last resort when plans fall through! I keep pets active, safe, and engaged. If there’s a fenced yard and the weather’s right, we’ll enjoy time outside. I’m also happy to take pets to local parks or trails (with your permission, of course). Toys, leashes, and other gear should be provided, but I’m open to arrangements if you need support with supplies. My goal is always to respect your pet’s routine while keeping them happy and secure in familiar or safe surroundings.
“I was so worried about leaving my cat who just had emergency surgery for a trip I couldn't postpone, but when I saw Mary's updates, I knew he was in good hands. Having a great cat sitter calmed my anxieties and allowed me to enjoy my time away. Thanks again for doing such a great job taking care of Oscar!”
“Hannah filled in while my dog walker was unavailable for a week last minute. Hannah was able to make herself available for a meet and greet with very little notice and did fantastic with my pup, Luna. She was so communicative and sent the best pictures. I will definitely be reaching out to Hannah in the future!”
“Brianna is a favorite of our cat Whitney. She has helped us out twice now. Brianna was able to accommodate our last minute request to visit, feed, and play with our whit. Would definitely recommend Brianna.”
About: I've owned cats my entire life, and I identify as a crazy cat lady! I have a cat of my own named Nemo who I love dearly, and I've watched my roommate's elderly cat Timmy who takes oral medication nightly on many occasions. I absolutely love all animals and would also love to house sit and keep your home safe! I also have experience with ferrets, hamsters, and dog sitting. I'm a full-time working graduate student in the Pittsburgh area and have my own car and would love to meet your pets in my spare time. Ask me anything! Prices negotiable. I currently work full time and go to school part time at Carnegie Mellon, but my work is going fully remote this summer. Flexible hours and ability to come and go as I please, so I can work around your schedule for the most part. Let's coordinate! We have three cats in my home, and I spend a lot of time loving on them and taking care of them as needed, and I enjoy doing so!
About: I currently have a chocolate lab named Hershey. He recently had a senior dog sibling who was my baby named Abbie. She was the sweetest dog ever and I miss her a lot and just need more animals in my life to fill the void. I currently work full time either 6 to 2:30 or 7 to 3:30 5 days per week. I have lots of time on my hands after work and in the evening. I will treat your fur babies like they are my own and see that they get the best quality care I can give. They will be in great hands.

“Booked doggy daycare for the day and as always Cassandra was great! My husband and I have peace of mind while we are away because we know our puppy is in good hands. Cassandra sends updates/pictures and stays in communication. Best part is that our puppy loves her and her family!”
“Alisha has been my regular sitter for about 2 months now & I feel very lucky to have found her! My dog, Cooper, is treated like part of the family & is always worn out when he gets home. I feel confident that he is safe & I still get consistent updates on what they’re up to all day. She is one of the best you could find!”
“I dropped my puppy off for a daycare for the first time! Tara was very nice and she sent me photos and progress reports regularly throughout that day! Will definitely be using her again ?”
“We had a wonderful experience! Communication was excellent from start to finish, making the entire process easy and stress-free. It was clear that our dog was well cared for and received lots of attention throughout the day. We picked up a happy, relaxed pup, which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!”
“Christy has watched Peach throughout her entire life; sometimes it was a weekly basis, a few times she watched her at a last minute Emergency notice, and had even boarded her over a long weekend. Peach isn't a big fan of humans but loves going to Christy's, getting to visit with her friends. Peach loves her dog Louie and playing with the other pups that she takes care of. I enjoy the photo updates, I am happy that Peach feels safe and I feel comforted while she is in Christy's care, and that Christy allows the dogs on the furniture-Peach even got to sleep in bed when she stayed. I hope I never have to go through the process of figuring out another sitter because Christy is the one for us; Highly Recommend for any of you and your pets needs! Thank You Christy for Everything over the last 3 years!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and honestly just love being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, or staying with them while you’re away, I love making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. Every dog has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know each one and treating them like they’re my own. 🐾🤍 🐾 Monday–Friday: Flexible availability throughout the day since I work remotely and can adjust my schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. 🐾 Weekends: Limited availability due to other work commitments, but feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate when possible.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, I provide a calm and structured environment where every animal feels secure and cared for. Your pet will be staying in our home's dedicated and separate room that has direct access to a half acre, surrounded by 6-foot privacy fencing, ideal for a safe play and exercise. I am a certified Yellow Dog Walker through Animal Friends and specialize in positive reinforcement, earning each dog’s trust through patience, consistency, and respect. Dogs from different households are introduced carefully and only if both owners approve. Every dog in my care follows a reliable routine built around their owner’s preferences. Feeding, playtime, cuddle breaks, and outdoor exercise are all kept on schedule, with regular potty breaks every few hours to maintain comfort and consistency. I am experienced in administering oral and topical medications, as well as muscular injections. In the rare event of an emergency, I act quickly and responsibly by providing first aid, contacting the owner immediately, and working with their veterinarian or PVSEC, which is 15 minutes away, if advanced care is needed. Boarding, overnight care, and in-home sitting are all available. Clients receive daily photo and video updates to stay connected and reassured. My family takes pride in maintaining a clean, attentive, and loving environment. Choosing our care means your pet is treated with the same responsibility, structure, and affection we give our own. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine, as I work from home full time boarding horses. I maintain a structured schedule that begins early in the morning with feeding, medication administration if needed, and outdoor time in the fenced yard. Throughout the day, I rotate between play sessions, walks, and quiet time to keep pets balanced and comfortable. Evening routines include another round of feeding, bathroom breaks, and wind-down time before bed. For boarding and overnight care, I remain on-site to ensure consistent supervision. I plan my workday and personal schedule around the animals’ needs so no pet is ever left waiting for attention or care. Every pet in my care is treated with the same level of safety and respect as my own. My home and facility are designed for secure, low-stress care, featuring a half-acre yard enclosed by a six-foot privacy fence where dogs can exercise freely under supervision. I never mix pets from different households unless both owners confirm compatibility. Feeding areas, bedding, and play equipment are cleaned and sanitized regularly. I monitor all pets closely for signs of stress, discomfort, or illness and respond immediately. In the rare event of an emergency, I apply first aid, contact the owner, and consult their veterinarian or PVSEC if advanced care is required. Trust is built through consistency, transparency, and communication, with daily photo or video updates provided to owners for peace of mind.

“Maria has been professional yet personal since I reached out. We set up a meet and greet and Bernie was completely comfortable from the start. Today he visited early and stayed through the day. I’d say he had a blast since he ate and has been asleep since. Maria provided an excellent experience for both Bernie and I. We will visit again! Thank you Maria”
“Michael was absolutely amazing. We got video updates, as well as pictures while my husband and I were out at Kennywood. It took a lot for us to leave our baby for the first time, but Michael immediately made us feel comfortable. He also has quite the impressive set up that accommodates all dogs needs.

“Emily was wonderful and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided! She was reliable, communicative, and my dog was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable with her. I had great peace of mind knowing that Roo was in great hands. I will happily rebook her in the future!”
About: I have 3 pets of my own that I love so so much (2 cats and a dog). I have always cared for my neighbors pets as they have relied on me for the past few years every now and then. I have experience with both cats and dogs and have been pet sitting locally for 3 or 4 years now. I am comfortable with walking, feeding, and bathing pets. Hopefully you can rely on me to look after your pets this summer! I am currently in college at Duquesne University and am looking for some extra work this summer. I am looking to start work at a daycare part time but not until later so I thought this opportunity would be perfect. I will have plenty of free time until then to look after your pets! I have 2 cats and a dog who are my baby’s. I do not do boarding in my own home due to a temperament issue of our younger cat, but gladly will visit your fur baby’s and care for them that way! I am very trustworthy and can communicate well if there are any issues. I know some animals have dietary restrictions and such and will make sure to follow any instructions of care necessary.
“Sara was a great help while I was away on vacation! She is very reliable, arrived right on time everyday, and provided Munch the exercise he needs while handling his triggers well during walks. Munch was excited to see her every day and came back good and tired out!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my friends and families dogs since middle school - this included taking them out, experience, feeding, etc. I adopted a dog named Luna 2.5 years ago and we have been inseparable ever since ! I am currently working part time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time during the weekdays. I am taking a few credits of online classes but those are all asynchronous so I am very flexible. I want to make sure the dog is comfortable so doing everything I can do ensure that! This means knowing what is expected of me and any particular information about the dog. Hope to have transparent communication!
About: I grew up on my family’s ranch and have had a passion for caring for pets since I can remember. I have trained each of my dogs as well as taken care of my 13 year old lab that has diabetes. I am your girl for all things pets! I’m currently waiting to start my new grad Nurse job! I wanted to spend my free time doing what I love most, spending time with pets! I ensure that I am re reading all instructions left by the owners! There is no one else who knows their pets like them. I also make sure to always keep the owners updated.
“We are SO thankful for Lori. We had a last minute change in our schedule with our pup and not only did she respond quickly, she was willing to help and love on our pup. It’s not often you find someone you trust in your home the way we trust Lori.”
About: I've had a lot of experience with high energy dogs, and I currently have a 4-year old Siberian husky. I am happy to bring her to play if your dog wants an energy release or I can come solo! I also run with my husky in the mornings and would be happy to run with your dog if they are comfortable with other dogs! I work from home full time and have a pretty flexible schedule! Just let me know what time you need me to come and I'll block it in my calendar. I like to walk the dog for at least 1.5-3 miles depending on the energy level, but that's coming from a husky mom. I can adjust the distance as you see fit!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. (my soul dog’s ashes are in my paw tattoo 🐾🩷) I grew up with Rottweilers and currently have two of my own, Gino & Haus, they're my whole world! I also have a handful of kitties🥰 My passion for animal care goes back as far as I can remember. From baby videos of me crawling on my dog and giving him a big hug & kiss, to completing a veterinary training class in 10th grade, where I learned the basics of animal health and handling! There even was one time I rescued two dogs on the side of the highway who had dug out of their backyard!! I now have about 3.5 years of hands-on experience working with animals, including two years at doggy daycares, where I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they're my own and I always try my best to give them a safe, loving, reliable person they can trust just as much as they trust you, no matter how long it takes them to warm up to me. Working with animals is more than just a job to me—it's what I love, and I plan to make it my lifelong career. I work at a doggy daycare with a flexible schedule, so my availability varies from week to week. I am almost always able to stay overnight for house sitting, and depending on my work schedule, I can spend all day, all morning, or all afternoon and evening with your baby. I always try to spend as much time as I can with your baby. (leaving work is as hard as you can imagine) My most common shift is 1:00 PM–7:00 PM, though I can also work morning, afternoon, and split shifts, though the weekday morning shifts are extremely rare. My weekday shifts are never longer than 6.5 hours, and the only time I may be away for up to 10 hours is on the occasional Saturday when I'm scheduled for a longer shift. On Sundays, I usually work split shifts, which means I'm able to come home and spend about 2½ hours with your pet between work periods. If it's a good fit for your baby and you're comfortable with it, I'd also be happy to talk about bringing them with me to my work so they can enjoy extra socialization, enrichment, and attention, while never leaving my side! I'm committed to keeping your babies routine as normal as possible and will always communicate my schedule ahead of time so you know exactly what to expect!! Your babies safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority. I love to take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and other special needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, as if you haven’t even left! I am experienced in administering medications, following food schedules, and providing extremely gentle and personal care. Walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I'll always make sure your baby gets plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection (and making sure they know it!!) while I keep their routine as normal and consistent as I possibly can! I treat every pet as if they were my own, and pay close attention to their behavior so I can quickly notice and respond accordingly with any changes or concerns. You will also always get regular updates and photos about how they were and their day!
“Brianne is a fantastic person and does a great job with our difficult 1 year old puppy. She has a level of patience and understanding of his needs. I can’t recommend her highly enough and would use her every day if I could.”
“Cassandra was so great! We had her walk our high energy boxer while on vacation and it was a gift knowing that he was getting the workout he needs while we were away. I’d love to use her again in the future!”
“It was our first time using Rover and Lindsey was an excellent companion and dog walker for our pit bull mix! Her report after each visit was thorough and usually included an extra anecdote about their time together and great pictures! Lindsey very concerned and asked for our advice when our dog wasn't eating much food when we initially left. We appreciated her initiative. When there was a big rain storm and they couldn't walk outside, Lindsey spent the time playing with our dog inside and gave him the attention and exercise that he needed. Overall a great experience and highly recommend Lindsey!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets and animals with unique care needs. My experience includes daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, administering oral medications, basic grooming, and reinforcing training routines. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort and happiness while providing photo messages, videos and updates so you can have peace of mind. Every pet receives personalized care based on their personality and routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so I’m available for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime and plenty of companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, meditations (if needed) and any special requests.
“Hannah was great with my dog Daisy. She walked her while I was away on vacation and maintained communication with me everyday. When it was too hot to walk the entire time, she played with Daisy and gave her snuggles inside. I definitely recommend her and will book again.”
About: Caring for pets has always been part of my life, not just something I do, but something I truly love. I share my home with my big-hearted Golden Retriever Lucy Goose who brings joy, structure, and a lot of personality into my daily routine. Through her—and the many pets I’ve cared for—I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, medications, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I’ve also had the joy of hosting pets with special needs, recently including a vivacious little pug puppy with epilepsy. Providing a calm, consistent, and loving environment is something I take pride in. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, respect, and genuine affection—just like one of my own. While away, your pet is my family and I am fiercely protective of my family. Hi, I’m Jess! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom to a sweet Golden Retriever who’s very much part of my everyday life. Caring for pets is something that feels natural to me—it’s woven into my daily routine, not something squeezed in as an afterthought. My Lucy Goose is a large Golden Retriever with the sweetest, most gentle “little dog energy.” She’s very social, kind, and welcoming, and does wonderfully with dogs of all sizes. She has happily shared her space with smaller dogs and special-needs pets, and all interactions are always supervised to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I work during the week for about 6–8 hours a day, and outside of that time my life revolves around walks, fresh air, playtime, and creating a calm, loving home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, and I’m intentional about making sure every pet in my care gets plenty of attention, affection, and consistency. I treat every pet like they’re my own—learning their quirks, honoring their routines, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, backyard playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them right where they are. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can truly relax. My home includes a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor play, and I supervise pets closely throughout the day. I also have a few pup gates to ensure safe calm and private pet feedings or if quiet time is needed. I also use cameras for added peace of mind and awareness while I am out and about. Whether pets are in my home or yours, I follow routines carefully, respect boundaries, and keep a watchful eye on behavior, comfort, and wellbeing. I communicate openly and provide updates because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and cared for.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a special love for them. Growing up with dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m patient, caring, and dependable, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, giving belly rubs, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all ages and sizes. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care while you’re away. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, loved, and well cared for. I’m available Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 7 PM, and weekends from 11 AM to 8 PM for walks, visits, and loving pet care. I create a safe, trusted, and welcoming environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and cared for with patience, attention, and respect like they are family.
About: With over 20 years of hands-on animal care experience, including veterinary tech training, rescue rehabilitation, special needs support, and behavioral management, I offer comprehensive, individualized care. I specialize in working with pets who need extra patience, medical oversight, and emotional understanding. Whether due to age, disability, or recovery needs.

“Monica took great care of my dog, Lusia, while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and I highly recommend her as a responsible and caring pet sitter!”
“Lindsey and her family took excellent care of our dog, Willow for a 1 week stay. We received daily photos and comments of how her trip was going, which made us feel in the loop while we missed our girl. Would recommend to others who need a safe, loving home for their dog.”
“We strongly recommend Nelia, Brett, and Family. Our dog had the best boarding experience ever with them. We got regular daily updates, and he was always very happy during the visit. He was also sad to leave them at the end of the visit. We will definitely board with them the next time we are out of town.”
“Courtney is wonderful with my dogs. I can always go away and feel comfortable leaving them with. I appreciate every thing she does for them and I know they will be safe and well taken care of.”
“Our dog had a great time at Victoria's home. She was amazing with updates. We received several videos every day. Our dog was sad to leave her place at the end of his stay.”
“Emily and Patrick are absolutely incredible! They took such wonderful care of my girl Bunny. When my trip was unexpectedly extended due to a flight cancellation, they were so flexible and accommodating. Throughout the weekend they kept me updated with photos and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t be more grateful — thank you both so much!”
“Raeann was the best, although his stay was only for a day, our pup loves Raeann! She is so full of love and joy and our pup sensed that from our meet & greet and during his stay! Raeann is so very welcoming and warm-hearted, a perfect fit for our sweet cuddler pup!! Thanks Raeann!! ❤️”
“We could not have found a better dog sitter than Cassandra. Our old dog Pippi was a challenge - multiple accidents - yet Cassandra was so understanding and tolerant! And her children were great with Pippi, giving her belly rubs and lots of attention, so much so that she practically purred.”
About: I'm a huge animal lover - big and small! I've had dogs and cats my whole life. We have a sweet cat who absolutely loves every dog that comes through our home. We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them. After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.
“Damara was wonderful! She was very caring and thoughtful with Theo. From the pictures and communication I could tell that Theo enjoyed his time with Demara and her daughter. Would definitely rebook in the future!”
“Wonderful experience with Jeremy and his wife! We were so grateful to find them on short notice, and they took wonderful care of our pup. I think she was almost sad to leave she had so much fun! We will be calling them again 💗”
“Another wonderful stay for our pup Daisy! Anthony and Leslie take such great care and show so much love to our pup while we're away. We couldn't ask for more. We love the frequent picture updates throughout each day, evidence that Daisy is having a great time. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life but my first job years ago in high school was at a veterinary hospital/ boarding. Because I was still in high school I was mainly in the kennels taking care of all the wonderful fur babies while their parents were out of town. Also, after informing the doctors that I was aspiring to become a vet, they allowed me to put on some scrubs and help out occasionally. I quickly realized that I was going to find a different way to care for animals 😂 Since then I have raised my own dogs and cared for animals of friends and family and have worked a few jobs at doggie daycares. I am an early riser because of my job so if your fur baby is too, they will fit right in! I work construction so I will be out for a portion of the day, but my wife works from home so her and our two pups will always be there to keep your baby company and make them feel right at home! At my house, no where is off limits for a furry friend. We can do anything to accommodate your fur babies to make sure they’re comfortable with their stay and you can have peace of mind that they will be happy and safe while you are away!
“Chang was so good to our Pup! She took her on walks, sent us lots of pictures showing her comfortable hanging out at her house. Communication was great! Highly recommend!”
