“Kathy watched our dog for a week and Nova had a great time! Kathy pays attention to every detail and ensures our dog is comfortable and happy! This was our second booking with Kathy and we hope she is always available if we need her!!”
“Our sweet pup Lily was well taken care of by De’Andra and Robert. The updates and photos sent of her smiling were great and allowed us to relax on our trip confident that she was in excellent hands. We will definitely be using their services for future trips”
“Jaideep was very communicative and easily accommodated my early morning drop off and pick up. He sent pictures of Sasha looking very content during her stay with him, and kept me updated on everything. I’m just passing through the area, but if you’re local to Harrisburg, PA then definitely book him!”
“I felt very good about the care I was receiving from videos and pictures. I felt max was in good hands and it showed a very well organised house with a fenced in yard in the back. I will definitely use him again. Thanks again”
“Angel is a great dog sitter. Very kind, empathetic and trustworthy. My dogs are rarely away from home but they bonded with her and were able to relax and enjoy themselves while I was away. She was very consistent with getting them some exercise and maintaining a medication schedule for my boy with a touch of arthritis. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Teresa is great!! She took care of our two dogs on two different occasions and I had no worries. She sent me pictures and shared how they were doing. I would definitely leave my two babies in her care in the future.”
“Heather and her husband watched our pup for a long weekend and we couldn’t be more thankful to have found her! We don’t have any family nearby. She sent pics of him while we were away and he was very well cared for. Thank you Heather! <3”
“They did an amazing job with Jax. Said that Jax got along great with there dogs. Great communication and was so understanding with my flight cancellations to come back home to get him. Definitely recommend!”
“Oleg was wonderful to work with. He was responsive and took our dogs last minute when we had to go out of town for a funeral. Our pups had so much fun with his family and his lab. They both came home exhausted from lots of play time! We will definitely use Oleg’s services again.”
“I recently adopted my dog, and the previous owner recommended Rebecca. When we arrived, it was obvious that my dog remembered Rebecca and her pets and enjoyed their company. I felt very comfortable leaving Roxy with her. I would use her again.”
“Victoria was amazing! She cared for our dog Chloe with so much love, as if she were her own. She’s kind, responsible, and truly loves animals. Our whole family is beyond grateful — Chloe was happy, safe, and so well looked after. We highly recommend her!”
“Jonathan and Dana are excellent pet sitters. I think my dog enjoyed being with them more than with me. They gave Molly a lot of attention and excellent care. I would love them to watch Molly again when we go away.”
“We were very happy with Rosa and her family. From start to finish, they were very caring and sweet. Since it was our first experience, we loved it. Our pups were in the best hands. We highly recommend trusting Rosa, you won’t regret it. Thank you so much, Rosa and family! From Tina and Cooper 🐶🐶🫶🏻❤️”
“If you want your dog truly loved & cared for, BOOK Phillip & Maria!!! Bodhi had THE BEST TIME: walks, cuddles, new dog friends. We got a video every day & Maria replied within 10 minutes any time I messaged. I can't say enough good things-- we've had some sketchy Rover sitters and Phillip & Maria restored our faith. Our boy was with them 5 days, he ate well, and slept like a rock. 10/10 highly recommend and we will be booking with them again!!!”
“I was very pleased with my pets stay with Miss Bobbi. She sent me pics and updates throughout the day. This was the first time my pet and I have been apart and all went well. I feel confident leaving LG with her in the future.”

Cat caregivers near you - Marsh Run
About: I’ve grown up around cats and have plenty of experience taking care of them. Whether that be brushing, clipping nails, cleaning, etc I’m your girl! I have a calming aura that helps me connect with them as well :)
“Rebekah did a great job with our cats! She gave good updates and was very attentive and thoughtful. She was even able to put a onesie on one of our cats to stop her from licking a hot spot on her back. Highly recommend her :)”
“Sally has been so wonderful with my Midnight Sassafras! She even brings a toy of her own to play with her because she understands that cats need variety with their toys. She has exceeded my expectations and I will continue to reach out to her when I need a sitter.”
“Heather is absolutely wonderful. She has pet sat twice for my two boys (cats). I trust her so when I leave I never feel worried or the need to check the app which frees my mind to focus on other things. Heather is kind, compassionate, respectful of our home, and most importantly she loves our two boys and takes excellent care of them. When we return the boys are calm, content, sweet as ever, and our home looks great. Heather’s notes, pics and videos are a delight to read and view. We will continue to ask Heather to pet sit whenever we travel. 5 stars!”
“The bestest!!!!! If you want someone to watch your cats and feel secure they’re being well taken care of, get Hanna!! She is so caring and makes the extra effort to make our babies feel comfortable and content. One of our kitties is very shy and Hanna did a great job of respecting her space but also making sure she’s fed/doing well. The other kitty that loves attention, Hanna made sure to give it to him! In addition, she made sure the water fountain was filled and the litter box clean! We are so appreciative of her and will definitely work with her again and recommend her care!!!”
“Stephanie is great with cats!! I was gone for a week and honestly my cats act like I was gone for a day. She played with them way more than I do, so I think they're going to miss her! She was so in tune with my boys that she noticed that one of them was trying to "communicate" an issue with his water fountain. She noticed, talked to me, and she addressed his complaint. If you have cats, I strongly recommend Stephanie. She's the best!”
“Becky continues to be an amazing resource for us- we travel for work a good bit and it makes me so happy to know she cares for our cat like her own. Becky also always goes above and beyond for us- can’t recommend her enough!”
“Sydney took great care of our kitties while we were away! Our cats can be particular with their people, so it was great to hear the updates and see the photos of our cats and Sydney getting along. They were absolutely well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend.”
About: I have always had a connection with animals. I wasn't able to get my first pet until I was 10 and it was a guinea pig...fast forward 22 years and that connection and passion for animals has not changed. I worked as a veterinary technician for 6 years including school, most of which was in Maine. I no longer work as a technician but still love to fill my time with taking care of people's pets. I currently have a pretty open schedule. The only reason I would not be able to do certain days would be due to medical appointments or family obligations. When I care for your pet I will be able to spend as much time playing, walking, relaxing. Whatever you and they may want or need. I am able to give medication including insulin and fluids.
About: I only have 1 cat now ever since my other fur baby passed at 14 years old. I've owned and cared for dozens over the years. I have experience with pregnant and new born kittens as well. Good with indoor and outdoor (half feral types). I scoop litter boxes and empty and scrubbed them down when needed. Ill feed dry or wet food. I'll give as many pets as they will allow (I've had temperamental ones that very rarely want cuddles and will scratch to teach you this). At one point I had way more cats and kitties than was considered normal and still kept them healthy and cared for while I was around.
About: Cats hold a special place in my heart and I am comfortable with all cat personalities. I understand the importance of respecting cats boundaries and work around their comfortability. I provide drop ins, playtime, feeding, and litter care. I’m patient and gentle, and focus on reading cat’s body language for affection and playtime. No matter the cat, I’ll make sure your kitty is safe and secure while you’re away from home :)
About: I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages! I’m also comfortable administering medications and handling any accidents or messes that may happen. As a pet caregiver, my top priorities are making sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining open and reliable communication with their owners. I look forward to giving your pets the same care and attention I’d give my own! Pet care fits well into my weekly schedule! I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide reliable care. I’m available before and after work on Mondays and Thursdays (8:30 AM–5:00 PM), and on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I finish work at 12:30 PM, leaving the rest of the day available for walks, drop-in visits, or extended care. I also only work one Friday each month, making most Fridays completely open. I’m committed to being dependable and ensuring your pet receives the attention, care, and love they deserve! When caring for your pet in your home, I will always follow your routine and respect your wishes. I’ll provide the care, attention, exercise, and any medications your pet needs while keeping your home clean, secure, and treated with the utmost respect. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“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.”
“Jaydeep was absolutely amazing with our dog! We left our pup with him for 8 days, and he went above and beyond to keep us updated every single day with photos and messages. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable our dog was under his care. You can tell Jaydeep truly loves and understands dogs — he treated ours like his own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book with him again!”

About: 6/2026 UPDATE: After a long hiatus, I am back to dog sitting. It's a long story but my house burned down and it took years to get back into, a car accident, etc. However, I would like to start sitting other dogs again. I have my own dog, a bullmastiff named Bodi, who turned a year old in May 2026. He's 130+ lbs so far. He's a big big baby. He's very well socialized and goes to the dog park frequently, doesn't guard resources, and loves smaller dogs too. He is very gentle with them. Bodi is not neutered so no females in heat. My mother lives with me and she has a household cat. So, while it's ok for dogs to chase a cat, the cat is dog savvy, I cannot watch any dogs that would wish to do actual harm to the cat. I am especially doing this right now so my dog remains accustomed to new dogs entering his home and welcoming them. I'm home all the time so my schedule is open. My mother also lives with me and she is here all the time as well. I have a small fenced yard. I usually take my dog to the dog park or for a walk, or he has a playdate with the neighbor dog. So, while watching your dog, I would take him/her to the dog Park if that's ok with you, or take them for a walk. I do have a hip issue so I can't promise a lengthy walk every single day no matter what, simply because I do have hip issues. However, i would be able to throw a stick around, etc, to ensure your dog gets enough exercise. My dog Bodi is allowed on the furniture and in my bed and your dog would also be welcome to do so. I do give my dog people food treats. If you do not allow people food, please just let me know and I'll respect your wishes. The last thing I want to say is that my dog is my first priority, being that I'm only willing to watch dogs that get along well with my dog. So, I cannot promise any bookings without meeting you and your dog beforehand. I want dog sitting to be a positive experience for him and I do not want Bodi to be uncomfortable in his own home. 8/23/2019 UPDATE: My dog, Stella, passed away in March from osteosarcoma; but, I can't bring myself to remove her info from my profile yet. So, I'm adding this info as an update. Although I don't think I'm ready to get a new dog myself yet--because I still feel as though getting another dog would be trying to replace the irreplaceable-- I feel ok when around other people's dogs & feel as though I am ready to watch dogs again. In fact, being around dogs more, again, may be exactly what I need first, before getting another dog. All of that being said- despite my profile information & posted pictures, I do not have any dogs in my home so I would be able to watch dogs who may not be good with other dogs. I can watch more than 1 dog at a time, provided they are from the same household; but, I generally don't accept dogs from more than one household at a time. I set that rule/limit because I also had my own dog, so I may be willing to watch two dogs from different households...but, I wouldn't watch another dog from another household unless I had permission from both owners (first & foremost). Furthermore, I still would probably only do so only if I was already familiar with both dogs and/or felt very, very confident that neither dog's presence would negatively effect the other dog's experience. As a final note to owners of multiple dogs: Apparently, my thinking and experience(s) are contrary to Rover and or other Rover sitters in regards to watching two dogs from the same household. In my experience, whenever I have watched more than one dog from the same household, they have been easier to care for, and seem more calm and content. Therefore, instead of charging more for the second dog, my charge is $20 for the second dog. Additionally- I'm not sure what exactly my rate is for extended stays, based on my experience(s), extended-stays become easier and less time-intensive the longer the dog stays. As an example, I never expect to sleep much on the first night a dog stays over, simply because even when they're calm, they tend to wake up more often & obviously feel the need to go outside upon wakening. (However, being able to sleep through the night is an added bonus). So, I am willing to adjust my fees for well-behaved dogs staying longer than 3-4 nights. If and whenever that is the case, feel free to ask me about it, if I don't bring it up myself, during the meet n greet, asked prior to booking anything through the site. ___________________________________________________ Hi! I'm a dog person. As a kid, I grew up in a household with many dogs always coming and going so I am very comfortable with dogs. That being said, large and giant breed dogs hold a special place in my heart, and are my favorite. I am a college-educated professional and very trustworthy, and would be happy to meet in advance of taking care of your dog, in order to ease any concerns you may have about leaving a dog with a stranger. And, I could tell you more about myself over the phone, or in person. I also recognize I am new to Rover, and don't or probably won't have have any reviews or customers for a while, so if there's something I can say or do to ease any concerns you may have, feel free to let me know. I have one pet in my home, an 8-year-old female Bullmastiff named Stella, who is very, very laid back. Although I've known Stella her entire life, she came to live with me during the summer of 2017. She always lived with both male and female dogs of all sizes, and in a household with children, and has never displayed any behavioral issues or aggressive behavior. I think Stella gets a little lonely sometimes so she welcomes canine company. Every once in a while & depending on the personalities involved, the most 'aggression' Stella has ever displayed is a warning growl/light snap if she's eating a bully stick (her favorite), or when lying down in her spot on the sofa. It's an appropriate-level response & not aggressive. Actually, I think the only time she's ever even reacted like that, in any way, has been with dogs of her size or larger/taller than her. Even though I love the large dogs- I think Stella prefers dogs smaller than her. She seems to especially love dogs who nag her to play by running & jumping on and around her. Basically, I think she typically requires that the other dog motivate her to play ? (I think she also likes that she can play with the little dogs without having to do much of the running herself!) All in all, I think there's just a certain instant chemistry between certain dogs that make them immediate friends & good playmates. And, the reason I signed up on Rover is for Stella to have an occasional in-home playmate; however, Stella needs to feel comfortable in her own home, which is my first and foremost priority. Regarding house rules and what your pet may be accustomed to, I will adhere to any rules you set for your dog. Stella is allowed on the bed, and has a designated spot on the sofa. Your dog would be welcome on my furniture, if your dog is accustomed to that. However, I also have two ultra-comfortable dog beds (dimensions of each, 36"x 52"). I have exchanged dog-sitting favors with friends and neighbors and watched other dogs in my home for many years, but do not have any prior "professional" dog-sitting experience. MY HOME'S LAYOUT/SENIOR DOGS For anyone with senior dogs, my home is less than ideal, but can also be manageable for senior dogs. My home has a small fenced rear yard, but is a two-story home with the bedrooms located upstairs. There are also approximately 6-8 steps leading to the fenced yard. If your dog has a problem with the steps leading to the yard, I would be willing & able to walk the dog around the house to/from the yard without encountering the steps. I have hardwood flooring throughout my entire home (as well as ceramic and/or porcelain tile in the bathrooms). The stairs are hardwood floor treads with carpeted treads secured on top of the step. Although my stairs are certainly not the steepest stairs I've ever seen in an old home, they're still a bit more narrow and or steep than would be found in a newer home. Overall, my home may not be the best option for some senior dogs, but steps can be avoided as long as the dog is not accustomed to sleeping in the bedroom at night. That being said- I actually slept downstairs on my living room sofa (which has since been replaced) for 4-5 years when my previous dog was no longer able to climb the stairs. So, I'd probably sleep downstairs if I was watching a dog who couldn't climb the steps. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P. S. There is a question or checkmark on my Rover profile for me to answer as to whether anyone smokes in the home. The question is a little but unclear, and I marked mine as no smoking in the home. So, I would like to clarify that I am a smoker, but I don't smoke in my home. I'm currently home all the time so I have lots of time to give love and attention. My mother also lives with me so there's two people to get attention from. I have a small fenced in yard, but frequently take my dog for a walk or the dog park, or at least somewhere to get them out of the house on a rainy day (i.e. Bass Pro Shops)
About: I have taken care of my own pets and others for over 25 years. Our current house includes 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have a lab, golden and corgi. I also welcome foster animals into our home when i can. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have flexibility to visit multiple times a day or host in my own home. My dogs are very friendly with others and welcome new friends and people. I do have an electric fence but am happy to keep dogs on the leash to go outside. I am happy to crate if needed for your dog.

“We are new to the area and this is the first time we have used Anton. My dog Lancelot enjoyed his visit and received a warm welcome and he felt relaxed upon the meet and greet. Right from the start he made Lancelot feel comfortable and he felt right at home. Anton is very responsive and kind and he sends updates with photos. Knowing your pet is cared for makes me enjoy my time away even more! I have already booked another visit with Anton. Thank you Anton!”

About: Taking care of dogs and cats has been my specialty since I was a child! I have had 8 dogs of all kinds, as well as 10 cats, not including my grandmother’s. My family and neighbors would trust me to feed and water their pets while they were away. I am great at crating puppies and socializing feral/young kittens. It’s always a pleasure to brush or bathe pets depending on their size! I am working a part-time job at Petsmart so my day is already filled with furry faces! But I will still have plenty of days where I can come take care of your puppy or kitty! My schedules are usually two weeks out so I have plenty of notice of when I am free. Contact me of a day when you’d like me to care for your pet and I will let you know the earliest I am available that day! Unfortunately I am not in a position to invite pets into my home… I am figuring out my living situation and will update this section when I have a suitable place for pets to visit!
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. I started taking care of dogs a little bit before I turned 10. I've taken care of my family's and friends' pets for many years. I've been relied on for feedings, walks, baths, and medications. I love dogs with all my heart. I always want to make sure that they feel loved and cared for. I am currently working a full time job, but try to make time for some pet sitting! I am able to do most morning pet sitting/dog walking. Fridays and Saturdays are always 50/50 since I'm working either one of those days, but can do evenings if I am working. I'm always off on Sundays, so I'm always free! I live in an apartment, so I make sure that my dog has plenty of opportunities to go outside for a walk. My dog has a schedule that we stick to that also works for her. I would make sure that I follow your dog's schedule and specific instructions. With me, your dog will get all the cuddles, love, and playtime they could ask for!
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child and cats since I was in my 20s (20 years ago). I've had a pet gerbil, mouse, bunny, ferrets, and currently have a ball python. I'm great with animals, they like me. I've volunteered at a dog rescue. My friends all trust me with helping care for their pets and I've overnight sat for friends of friends before. Ive even helped on farms with sheep, goats, pigs, cows, chickens, and horses. I am ok with cleaning up messes if they happen and am used to very energetic dogs and cats with a lot of attitude. I am currently a part time schools bus driver with extra hours available in the middle of the day and evenings off. I'm also moonlighting as a stage hand and Hershey park shuttle driver which takes up some of my weekend adjacent evenings (but have those mornings off) I have a fenced in back yard that my dog (Patty, 9yo) loves. She gets two walks a day and eats fresh refrigerated dog food. My cat Malcolm, 3yo is an indoor/outdoor cat (we rescued him as kitten outside and he is half feral and demands being let outside). We live in a secluded neighborhood that has a cat on every corner so people know to drive slow. He gets dry and wet food (only accepts soupy broth style and we give him a lil cup 3 times a day). The best way to wake up is when they both are on the bed next to me. I will extend this same care to all pets and homes that I sit for/at. I clean them up and any messes they make be they poo, mud or vomit with a hairball in it.
About: I have been an animal lover since I was young child. I even save bugs stuck inside! I have lifelong experience providing care to all sorts of pets including rodents, dogs and cats, both inside and outside. I have very strong beliefs about taking care of animals. I feel we are blessed to have animals in our lives and should treat them with love and dignity. I highly value kindness and compassion towards humans and animals alike. I am a very patient and loving person. I enjoy spreading that love and patience to all animals. I have owned 2 dogs, both of which with severe anxiety and leash reactivity. I met with a dog trainer and learned specific ways to help dogs dealing with those. I love to be outside and walk, especially with a dog. Exercise is so important to animals. I would adore getting to know your pets! I will give them all the snuggles they deserve! During the summer, I am available almost all of the time, even on the weekends. I am a teacher so, once school starts back in the fall, I will still be an active pet-care giver, but unfortunately my schedule will change. I am not able, at this time, to care for pets at my own home. I am MORE than happy to come to your home, walk your dog, and feed and give water to your pets.
About: I have taken care of so many different types of animals, ranging in all ages. I have no boundaries with pets :)) I love them all so much and will love your baby like they’re my own.

I keep my eyes on the pet/s at all times when outdoors, and monitor as necessary in the house. I might as well be a helicopter (pet) mom.
“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care our dog received while we were away on vacation. 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: I have many years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, though I avoid working with overly aggressive dogs. I focus on dogs body language so I can approach them in a way that makes them feel safe. I offer walks, drop ins and playtime, where I bring patience and energy to match your dogs needs and wants. No matter the stage of life your dog is in, I am passionate about treating them all with equal love and attention. I work remotely on my own schedule so I am available weekdays and weekends! I am available all day long and can work pet care into my schedule. I focus on caring for animals in a very gentle and safe way. Respecting animals boundaries while providing them with the love and attention they need is of my highest priority and I particularly focus on making sure your animal feels safe and loved.
About: I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages! I’m also comfortable administering medications and handling any accidents or messes that may happen. As a pet caregiver, my top priorities are making sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining open and reliable communication with their owners. I look forward to giving your pets the same care and attention I’d give my own! Pet care fits well into my weekly schedule! I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide reliable care. I’m available before and after work on Mondays and Thursdays (8:30 AM–5:00 PM), and on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I finish work at 12:30 PM, leaving the rest of the day available for walks, drop-in visits, or extended care. I also only work one Friday each month, making most Fridays completely open. I’m committed to being dependable and ensuring your pet receives the attention, care, and love they deserve! When caring for your pet in your home, I will always follow your routine and respect your wishes. I’ll provide the care, attention, exercise, and any medications your pet needs while keeping your home clean, secure, and treated with the utmost respect. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since as early as I can remember. Honestly I get along with animals better then people! We've always had a dog and more recently cats. My in-laws ask for my help when they take a trip and I am always happy to help! Currently I am caring for my kids during most of the day but I am open on evenings and weekends as needed! I'll try to fit anything in that I can! I'll always greet the animals first and make sure they are comfortable with me. Then I check for water and food. Once I make sure those are good we are off for play time or walk time!
“Ella was reliable and on time. She communicated in a timely manner and she did wonderful on the walk with my pups. The one has anxiety so he only walks so far down the street. So she walked them a few times and even gave me feedback on if they did #1 or 2. I will hire her again in the future.”

About: I have owned/taken care of dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I have cared for animals with special needs, as well as worked on a farm for a few years. I take caring for other animals very seriously. I would love and care for them like they were my own. I am currently working from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere as well as take breaks when need be. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions you may have. I am willing to be flexible with my pricing when it comes to watching more than one dog. I currently do not have a fenced in yard, I hope for this to change sometime in the near future. However, I do live across the street from a park with a walking trail, so am able to take them for long walks multiple times a day. If I am caring for your fur baby at your home, I will make sure to keep the same activities they are used to while you are away.

“If you want your dog truly loved & cared for, BOOK Phillip & Maria!!! Bodhi had THE BEST TIME: walks, cuddles, new dog friends. We got a video every day & Maria replied within 10 minutes any time I messaged. I can't say enough good things-- we've had some sketchy Rover sitters and Phillip & Maria restored our faith. Our boy was with them 5 days, he ate well, and slept like a rock. 10/10 highly recommend and we will be booking with them again!!!”
“Kayla always takes great care of my pup! she is an excellent communicator and always sends lots of pictures! i always feel comfortable leaving my dog with her. I highly recommend and will be using her again.”
“My dogs looks so happy and loved for. They came home very sleepy after 2 fun filled days of playing in the large, well maintained, fenced in yard. We honestly could not have been any happier. We received so many pictures throughout both days which reassured us that they were in great hands. Plus her dog was so sweet and playful which made my dogs very happy to have a new friend to play with. Highly recommend!”
“I am a very anxious person, Sarah took the time to work with me and my pup. Very accommodating and always asking questions to make sure we are on the same page! And Charlie is an angle!”
“Steffany was so incredibly welcoming of myself and Tito. During our meet and greet, Tito got to meet their dog Padme and seemed to get along very well with her. Steffany said Tito had a really nice time playing with Padme and her son and enjoyed his stay. When he got home he took a long nap, so I have no doubt he was tired from a fun weekend. I will be using them again for future trips this year, thank you again!”
“Heather was wonderful taking care of my dog, Benji! She sent me lots of pictures & videos of Benji. I will definitely use Heather’s services in the future. Thank you, Heather! :)”
“Pam and Michael were wonderful! They are clearly animal lovers and I trust they took care of our dog as their own. They sent lots of pictures and videos while we were gone. Our dog came home tired from playing and very happy.”
“Kaitlin was great. She was flexible with timing for drop off and pick up. We did a meet and greet first to make sure our dog got along with her dog. All went well! Very comfortable house and fenced in back yard space. She kept us updated often with pictures, videos and comments on how things were going. I would definitely recommend her for your fur babies. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing that our dog was in great hands with Kaitlin.😀”
