“I have used Rover for every trip we've taken over 2 years and I am confident my Cardigan Welsh Corgi Arthur has never received better care than the care he received from Betsy and Ron. I think they might take better care of him than we do at home! My only disappointment is that I didn't immediately secure dates for another upcoming trip and they are not available. I don't think you can find someone better to take care of your pet! We got daily updates and photos that reassured us that Arthur was in great hands- he was smiling in many of the photo updates!”
“Michael was very accommodating regarding booking my pup’s stay being that it was somewhat last minute. This was the first time I had booked with Michael, and everything was great.

I know my baby was taking care of, and I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

I will be definitely be leaving my dogs with her and her family again!”

The set-up she has at her house is very dog-friendly, giving our four-legged family member her own vacation while we were on ours. It is obvious that Angelita loves caring for dogs; the second our dog met her, they were instantly best friends. She sent lots of updates while we were away! Will absolutely be using Angelita again!!”

We would highly recommend Erin for anyone else and would happily ask her to help support our kitten in the future if needed.”

I have never used this service and was so nervous to have a stranger in my home with my prized possession our bean but with her I felt no apprehension at all.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kinderhook
“My pup Samson and I did a meet and greet with Krista a few weeks ago and decide we liked her. He had his first daycare session with her last week and loved it so much he didn’t want to leave. What more could a dog mom ask for?”
“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.”
“Jackson's first day with Megan & Vincent was full of sunshine, friends, & fun! Thank you for all the photos & updates throughout his stay. He came home happy & would like to come back to play again! :)”
“We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter! She took such great care of Oreo while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Oreo was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciate her kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Oreo!”

“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.”
“We had a great experience with Gwendoline! Our 6 month old pit mix was nervous around the other dogs at first so Gwendoline did slow intros to make her feel comfortable. She was running around with all the dogs and making friends within the first hour! We will definitely be bringing her back soon!”
“Rex had such an amazing time with Mai, he seemed like he didn't want to go home when I came to pick him up! 😂 We can tell that Mai's place will be Rex's new home away from home and that they'll be the best of friends!”

He has changed my husky from being shy to my husky not wanting to leave Jaideep's house!!🤣 If you want someone who's attentive and cares about your dog Jaideep is your guy! Highly recommend!! Will be using Jaideep in the future!!”
About: I’ve always had a dog in my life, and I can’t imagine it any other way. Caring for dogs comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Your pup will get plenty of attention, affection, and care—just like they would at home. I am a registered nurse and lifelong dog lover offering doggy daycare and overnight boarding in my home. My home features a large fenced-in yard for safe play and, during the summer months, supervised pool time for fun and cooling off. With my nursing background, I’m attentive, reliable, and comfortable following routines or administering medications if needed. Your dog will enjoy a loving, safe, and comfortable home while you’re away—and you can relax knowing they’re in caring hands. Flexible daily daycare and weekend overnight boarding in a safe and loving home. Dogs enjoy full access to the house and a large fenced in yard.
“Dan and his wife were excellent doggy hosts. They made drop-off and pickup quick and simple. They gave picture updates and were great with communicating. I also loved that my spoiled dog had a couch to nap on. I will book again.”

Lauren went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt loved, comfortable, and well-exercised every single day. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such capable and caring hands. From daily walks and playtime to thoughtful updates and photos, everything was handled with professionalism and genuine love for animals. Our dog absolutely adored her and it showed! We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, which says everything about the quality of care provided. We are so grateful and highly recommend Lauren’s services to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly exceptional with dogs!”
About: As an experienced dog foster, I have cared for more than 25 dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, representing a wide variety of breeds and sizes. In addition, I was the proud owner of four dogs who each lived long, happy lives and reached their senior years before crossing the Rainbow Bridge. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the important role pets play as beloved members of the family. I am a school teacher, and with school now in session, my available has shifted. I am available each day starting approximately at 3:30 and can do early morning prior to school. I would love the opportunity to support families who need a safe, loving temporary home for their four-legged companions. Whether your pet needs overnight care, companionship during the day, or some extra exercise and attention, I am committed to providing the same level of care and affection that I would give my own dogs. As a teacher, I am currently on summer break, so I have availability daily throughout the week for play sessions and dog walks. I am also available for multi-night lodging. When you’re here, you’re family. Any animal under my care will be treated as one of my own. But with me, you get a whole family who are all trained in caring for dogs and cats, as each member of the household has been involved with fostering pups and raising kitties. The second floor of the house is separated by a door at the top of the stairs to allow separation between feline and canine friends if needed. Daily photos and FaceTime are available. We have multiple-sized dog crates if crating is requested. Although we may be new faces to your four legged companions, we will try to keep consistency in the rules you have at your home. If they are allowed on your couch, then they will be here. Feeding schedule will be dictated by how they ate at home. Walks will be frequent and there is a huge box of dog toys and cat toys to keep them entertained.
About: ✨HE/HIM/THEY✨🏳️⚧️✨ I love dogs (and other fur babies) more than anything and I put in 110% to make sure your pet/dog is properly cared for. I've had 5 dogs and had a little dog named Eric (rip) and I've raised and trained him since he was a puppy. I have some vet experience and I've worked at a pet resort so I've been with all kinds of dogs imaginable and I've given them their meds and anything special they need. I've also worked with cats, rats, birds, and fish. ✨Pet CPR Certified✨ *Due to surging gas prices and an attempt to keep prices low for clients I will limit where I’m willing to drive, thank you so much!!*🐶✨ Current Pets: Ember (Shiba-Inu), Aspen (Chow-mix), Quails, 4 cats (Fig, Pancake, Cheddar, Dough)! I work full time, 8hrs at most so your pet would be out with my wife or if they’re crate trained they may be in their crate as my wife works from home, but other than that when I’m home we play in our fenced yard and go for walks! I have a fenced in yard and the pups are kennel trained so if we go out they stay in their houses til we get back. Whatever rules you have for your place, I will follow to the T ☺️
About: Hi my name is Haylee. I am an avid animal lover! I have experience in pet sitting various types of animals. My services that are offered are house drop ins, walks, feeding, clean up and play time for your pet. I offer services to both dogs and cats. I have had all types of pets my whole life and really feel like a house isn’t a home without one! Happy to work with you on your pets needs and give you ease of mind when your away. I am currently offering pet sittings as needed for your busy schedule or holidays. I keep my calendar open for days that I am available. I provide the highest quality of care for your furry friends needs. If your pet has an accidents inside your home I make sure to clean up and have your house looking spotless.
About: For the past 18 years, I’ve been a trusted pet sitter and dog walker for family, friends, coworkers, and employers. Today, my husband and I share our home with two cats and an axolotl. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for animals of all ages and needs, including puppies and kittens, senior pets, animals recovering from illness, and those with special physical, emotional, or dietary requirements. Much of this experience comes from caring for my own pets as well as the pets of others. If I am not confident that I can meet your pets needs based on your request I will let you know promptly so you can reach out to another pet sitter who can provide the care your pet needs. I believe animals enrich our lives with unconditional love, companionship, and joy. When they’re in my care, I strive to provide that same level of love, attention, patience, and respect in return. Pet care fits easily into my current daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am able to accommodate a variety of schedules and routines and can plan my day around the needs of each pet. This flexibility allows me to provide attentive, reliable care rather than trying to fit pet care around a busy work schedule. When I first meet a pet, I like to let them approach me at their own pace and take time to build trust. I understand that being separated from their people and meeting someone new can be stressful, so I focus on maintaining their familiar routines and creating a safe, comfortable environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, needs, routines, and favorite activities so I can provide care that helps them feel secure and happy while their family is away. I also remain attentive to potential hazards and take steps to keep pets safe in their home. I am careful to follow owners instructions for pet care and rules of the home to make sure everyone is safe. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel most comfortable and content. For a pets comfort, I do my best keep their routine and environment as consistent as consistent as possible in the absence of their owners.
About: I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I just love all animals. Dog walking is great for their physical and mental health/improves their joints, and all around good therapy for me and your pet. Play time is also important. I will treat your furry family member with the utmost care & diligence. I am responsible, attentive, & detail oriented and will provide quality services. Currently available during the day. Just about anyday with a little notice. Can set up regular scheduled walk times. Or if you are in a bind, and need, on spur of notice. I am willing to walk from your home, or to a near by park. Giving attention and time. I typically like to know if they have a specific diet, medications, preferences, etc.
