“I recently had the pleasure of having Adriana take care of my 5-month-old pit bull mix, and I can't recommend her enough! From the moment we met, she showed genuine love and care for my pup. She took the time to understand his needs and habits, ensuring he felt comfortable and safe while I was away. Adriana kept me updated with messages and photos, which really eased my worries. It was clear that my dog was having a great time with her! She engaged him in playtime, took him on walks, and even made sure he was fed on his regular schedule. I could see how much she truly enjoys spending time with dogs, and it gave me peace of mind knowing my furry friend was in such capable hands. If you're looking for someone to watch your pets, Adriana is the perfect choice!”

“Can not say enough great things about our experience. Glenn was absolutely great with communication and you can clearly tell he knows how important our pets are to us. I will always check for his services first for anything my Maxie will need. Maxie stayed with him for a week and frankly, I think she’s disappointed to come home!”

“Cheyenne takes excellent care of our Lainey! She keeps us updated daily as to how she’s doing and Lainey loves her puppies Cheetos & Popcorn. We are definitely at ease when we’re away knowing the care Lainey is getting and highly recommended Cheyenne.”

“Samantha took such great care of our pups! She was friendly, super responsive and responsible! Our pups came home very content and seemed to have loved their stay with her family, we HIGHLY recommend!”


“Karen and Donald provided excellent care for my dog and were able to accommodate my requests. I was able to receive daily photos and felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. They are very experienced and have big hearts. I consider Donald a dog whisperer. He really understands them!”

“Anna was very kind great communication kept me updated about my puppy. Happy and huskies are a handful.. She babysat my baby happy for four days you can rell she was happy also big bonus my dog would pull me down the street when i would walk her after being with anna she syopped yanking me down the street. I definitely will be booking again very soon”

“Eileen was great! She took care of my kitten (Charlie) for 20 days and updated me with pictures and information about him throughout his stay with her. At first she was slow to respond to my messages before taking Charlie in but was great during his stay. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone.”

“Bryan did an amazing job watching Arya (German Shepard)! We have never left her with anyone other than family so we were very nervous, but he sent us photos each day. It’s nice to have someone we trust in the area! Our dog is also not the easiest as she doesn’t do well with other dogs all the time and can sometimes have anxiety but he understood and was able to accommodate her!”

“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”

“Fatima took care of our 75lb high energy Pitbull like it was her very own dog. We left for a vacation for 16 days and Fatima took over as both Mom and Pack Leader. She walked, fed, gave medication, cleaned ears, bathed, played with, etc. We got photos and vids daily, which gave us peace of mind that Leo was in great care. Highly Recommend!”

About: Hello all, I've owned cats, dogs, and horses for over 20 years now and was their main caregiver starting at 8 y.o.

I do my best to provide stress free care for your pets. I currently work from home! This means I am available at any time throughout the day.

I also will inspect the space the pet is in and make sure dangerous items (small items/chocolate/other) is out of reach of the pet. I make sure everyone has access to water at all times.
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”

“Sairy was amazing with Dutchie for a 6 night stay. Very flexible with pick up/drop off as well as communicative with picture and videos. I was able to relax on vacation knowing he was in Sairy’s care. Thank you again Sairy!”

“Wonderful people with hearts of gold! They cared for our dog like he was their own—he had an incredible time filled with long walks, playful moments, and lots of love. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”

“Tara was great with our anxious pup (and family)! Communicated well throughout the process- from setting things up to keeping us updated throughout his stay. Thankful to have found someone local to care for our Murphy when we are away! Highly recommend!”

“Alannah was a terrific cat sitter - attentive, communicative, and caring to our pets! I appreciated her accommodating a somewhat last minute request and I came home to some happy cats :)”


“Freya was such a blessing and I would highly recommend her. It was a great relief to have my Nala stay at home while I was away on vacation especially after we just lost her sister. Freya went above and beyond to make sure she was taken care of and loved during this time. It was wonderful seeing all of the pictures and I was stress free knowing that my girl was taken care of. Above all, she is trustworthy and my Nala loved her! Will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”

“I knew as soon as I met Samantha that my dog Millie was in good hands. Samantha is professional, kind and responsible. She sent me texts and a picture of Millie shortly after dropping her off to let me know that she was adjusting well. I would highly recommend Samantha for your pet sitting needs!”


About: I’ve been a cat lover for years and have experience caring for my own cats as well as helping friends and family with their pets. I’m reliable, attentive to details, and committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully to ensure their cat receives the best possible care.
About: What sets me apart is the level of patience, attentiveness, and personalized care I give to every pet. I take the time to understand each animal’s routine, personality, and comfort needs so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppy care (including basic training and potty routines), senior pets who may need extra support or medication reminders, and cats of all temperaments—from shy and quiet to playful and curious. Whether it’s structured walks, enrichment play, calm companionship, or keeping a consistent routine, I tailor my care to what each pet needs most. My goal is to make your dogs and cats feel genuinely loved and to give you complete peace of mind. I currently work full time. I am available after 4pm on weekdays and all day on weekends. I will communicate if my schedule does change. When caring for pets—whether in my home or in yours—I focus on safety, comfort, and maintaining a routine that helps them feel secure. I follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet’s routine as familiar as possible. I handle feeding, walks, litter care, medication (if needed), playtime, and cuddles just as you request. I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I also pay attention to behavior and energy changes to ensure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away. No matter the location, my priority is creating a safe, loving, and low-stress environment where your pets feel cared for and understood.
About: I have been around animals my entire life. From rabbits to cats and dogs, I have seen it all! I will take excellent care of your fur-baby(ies), as I have a dog and cat of my own and would only accept the best care for them! My current schedule allows me to petsit Thursday-Sunday between the hours of 7am and 7pm. I do have my own pets, so I like to block off two hours during the day to spend with them :) I will take upmost care of your pet in your home and remain respectful to your environment. I ensure that whatever your pet needs will be done!

“I must admit having a total stranger come to my house while away made me nervous. I met Brooke prior to booking her and knew right away she would be perfect. I am extremely happy with her and pleased to know I can use her again. She even went above and beyond and brought in two heavy packages that got delivered that wasn’t supposed to come for another week. I highly recommend Brooke and plan on using her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Tamera! I run Happy Howls Daycare and Walkies, where I bring over 11 years of professional pet care experience to every visit. One of my favorite aspects of this work is puppy care and foundational training. I understand the patience and consistency required for young dogs—from reinforcing potty schedules to working on basic leash manners and socialization. Whether you have a high-energy pup or a senior dog who needs a gentle pace, I tailor my care to their specific life stage. You’ll notice my last Rover review was in 2017; since then, I have been operating as a self-employed pet care provider for private clients. I’m returning to Rover now to meet new families and share my decade-plus of expertise with your furry friends. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and dedicated to making sure every "howl" is a happy one! I myself have 2 cats and 1 dog. I currently reside with my mother in a 4 bedroom house. My mother owns 5 cats, 1 small dog, and a ferret. All are friendly. Keep in mind if youd want care in my home. :) As a professional pet care provider, my daily and weekly schedule is designed entirely around the needs of my furry clients. Because I manage Happy Howls Daycare and Walkies as my primary focus, I am able to offer a high level of flexibility and dedicated attention that fits into a structured routine: Morning Energy (7:00 AM – 10:00 AM): My day starts early with morning 'potty breaks' and active walks. This is the prime time for puppies who are working on their training and need consistent outdoor reinforcement first thing in the morning. Mid-Day Adventures (11:00 AM – 3:00 PM): This block is dedicated to my core walking routes and daycare guests. I schedule midday visits to ensure dogs get their much-needed exercise and socialization while their owners are at work. Afternoon Wind-Down (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM): I focus on late-afternoon walks and feeding schedules. For daycare pups, this is a time for calm play and getting them ready for their evening transition back home. Seven-Day Availability: While my busiest days are Monday through Friday, I am also available for weekend 'walkies' and daycare by request. This ensures that whether it’s a standard work week or a busy weekend, your pet has a consistent and familiar face to look forward to. Throughout the day, I maintain a very organized schedule. I make sure to leave plenty of time between visits so I am never rushed, allowing me to give each dog my full attention, work on training cues, and send plenty of photo updates to you. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their second home. I focus on creating a calm, structured environment where they can feel secure while you’re away." Safety First: I maintain a 'paws-on-the-floor' policy for greetings to keep excitement levels manageable, especially for puppies in training. My home is fully pet-proofed to ensure a hazard-free stay. Routine & Structure: I mirror your dog's home routine as closely as possible—including specific feeding times, nap schedules, and any 'house rules' you have in place. Supervised Socialization: If multiple dogs are present, interactions are always 100% supervised. I use my experience to read body language and ensure every pup feels comfortable and respected. Cleanliness: I maintain high sanitation standards to keep everyone healthy and happy. In Your Home: Walkies & Drop-Ins "My goal for home visits is to provide high-quality care while leaving your home exactly as I found it—with the addition of a very happy dog!" Secure Entry & Exit: I am extremely diligent with home security. I double-check that all doors and gates are locked and that security systems are reset upon my departure. The Walk Experience: Safety is my priority on 'walkies.' I use sturdy leashes, avoid high-traffic or 'unpredictable' areas, and keep a close eye on the pavement temperature and weather conditions. Puppy/Senior Care: For clients at your home, I customize the visit. For puppies, this includes cleaning any accidents and reinforcing potty training; for seniors, it may involve gentle mobility assistance or administering medication. Detailed Check-ins: I will let you know when they nap, eat, and do their business

About: As a dedicated cat owner and experienced pet sitter, I understand the unique personalities and needs of our feline friends. From feeding and litter box maintenance to playtime and quiet companionship, i also have experience administering insulin as my cat has diabetes. I provide attentive and loving care tailored to each cat’s routine. Whether your kitty is shy or social, I ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Our dog had a great time at Adriana's. Between pictures and updates we could see he had a lot of fun with other dogs, including her dog Milo, who is super friendly and playful. The nice backyard set up she has for them to play around and constant supervision made Zync's stay pleasant.”


About: Safety first, my home has fences and gates to protect your love ones. If you work mid shift or over night and need somewhere for your four legged children to go while you work we have just the place for them. I love to play and cuddle with my dogs and would love the opportunity to have your love one stay with me in a loving home environment. I have watched the neighbors dog from time to time and had the care of my granddaughter who is a cat off and on for 2 years. I would rather leave my children (4 legged children) in a home setting if I had to travel away from home and they couldn't go with me. My husband loves animals too and since my husband isn’t working anymore one or the other of us is usually home all of the time. We have 2 four legged children that get along well with other dogs. We have a security system thru ADT. We also have motion cameras to keep an eye on your pets if we need to go out. Our back yard is fenced and well lite for when they are outside at night.We have outside the front door security camera, with night vision, 2way speak, warning. All our indoor cameras also , the same abilities. I am always willing to aloud, you’re family members “dogs and cats “,to sleep in bed with me, Donald.

“My pup Hunter had such a good time spending the day with Glenn! He came home happy and exhausted so I know he played hard! Will definitely be using Glenn's services again!!”

“Mera was wonderful with our 5-mo-old puppy (Briar)! She was very responsive and accommodating during the initial meet-and-greet and booking process, and she sent frequent photos and videos of Briar playing with Mera's dogs throughout the day. She followed our care instructions and was happy to work with our schedule. Thanks, Mera!”

“Our experience with Annie was terrific! She was great with our Mini Aussie Fred, even sending us some pics and updates while we were at a nearby concert. She was extremely friendly and made Fred's stay and our trip stress free and very enjoyable! Would highly recommend her to anyone interested in using DogVacay in the Scranton area!”
About: I have a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science from Michigan State University and previously work as a Receptionist for a Veterinary Hospital as I am familiar with companion animal health and nutrition, as well as first aid. I have a Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own that I enjoy staying active with through hiking and teaching her new tricks. I also own a horse and occasionally take care of the horses that are kept in the barn with him by feeding, turning in, blanketing, and cleaning stalls for them. I also enjoy cooking, writing, and lounging around watching Netflix. I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats of many different breeds and personalities from Rottweilers to Shitzu's. From Persians to domestic shorthairs. I have experience with exotics that range from chameleons to rabbits as well. You name it, I’ve probably cared for it! I currently work remote Monday-Friday. Dog walking and pet care would be a great way to break up the mundane part of the week and allow me to get out more. Although I have an unfenced yard for my Australian Shepherd, all dogs will be kept on a leash for potty breaks. They will also get a walk on my lunch break and plenty of toys to play with. If in your home I am sure to spend time with them and make sure they are secure and receive very little disruption to their normal routine.
About: I have been caring for dogs my whole life. I grew up on a farm where we raised many animals, including dogs I have always loved dogs and helped neighbors, family friends with pet care! I am a stay at home mom with two pups and 4 kiddos. I would love to meet your pet and help in anyway that I can. I currently am staying at home mom to my pups and kiddos so my availability is very open besides running kids around to sports and activities. I have open availability. I have two pups at home we crate the puppy when we leave and my two year-old lab has free range of the home. We also have a very big yard.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and been around them my whole life. Growing up we had five dogs of different breeds and sizes and that is what cemented my passion for animals. I work from home so I have ample time to do whatever is needed for our furry friends. The yard is big enough for everyone to run around and play. I also have a park not too far a walk from my house. I work from home and am able to care for your buddy around the clock. There are no children in my home but always a buddy or two. I love dogs and make sure they each feel welcomed loved and cared for. My fenced yard lets us play and run with no worries of escaping or getting lost. Outdoor time is always supervised or accompanied! There are a lot of soft cozy spots to hang out. My couch is protected by one of many covers that is rotated through the days so dirty paws or accidents aren’t that big a deal. Speaking of dirty paw, my Bissell wet dry vac has to clock in to work at LEAST twice a day! Lol
“Jennifer and Christian are amazing! My pup usually takes time to warm up to new people, but they made him feel comfortable right away and he was cuddling with them in no time. Loved getting updates and sweet photos throughout his stay!”

About: I’ve always loved caring for pets and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and careful with feeding, walking, playtime, and routines. I treat every pet like family and make sure they get the care, affection, and attention they need. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I’m reliable, flexible, and able to plan my day around each pet’s needs. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and keeping pets comfortable while their owner is away. I always focus on safety, comfort, and trust. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets in a clean and calm environment, and make sure they are supervised, secure, and cared for with patience and kindness.
“Mary took care of my 3 year old dog for a few hours. She was very considerate, transperant and cared about my dog. I got pictures and information how it goes to my pup, they even went to park even though it was a short stay. Thank you!”

About: I currently run a 501c3 nonprofit animal rescue organization in Lackawanna county called TT’s Rescue Squad. I also am an active volunteer with numerous other local pet rescues. I do house some fully vetted rescue and resident kitties that are all friendly with my dog guests. I have cared for animals my whole life. While your dog is in my care I will also provide basic obedience and puppy training/socialization. I am well known in my local area rescue community and can provide numerous personal references. I attended a technical school and received a certificate in animal science. I recently attended a pet first aid class. **About my home/services** All Doggie Guests Must be Dog, People, and kid friendly. I host Doggie Daycare in my home daily and it’s very important all dogs are friendly with other dogs. Due to the fact that Cats do reside in my home I request an honest heads up for house guests that are not cat friendly so I can ensure a safe environment for my cats in advance, my cats have been socialized with small and large dogs and are very friendly and trusting of dogs. Cats are allowed to free roam with all dog guests during their stay unless advance plans are made. I am home all day. Your pet will not be left alone during daycare hours and never longer then a shopping / grocery trip while boarding. I have a securely fenced in yard that is very well maintained and also gates throughout the house to prevent accidental escaping when doors are opened.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is , I love giving massages to my friends animals . I’m a massage therapist and even animals need to relax! My background is babysitting.

About: From mushing dogs to house sitting for neighbors/friends while caring for their pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, breeds, and ages.

About: I grew up surrounded by a variety of farm and domestic animals, but my new apartment is too small for dogs or cats... So I’d love to care for your pets! I have experience with little puppies and kittens, grumpy old pets, large athletic dogs and cats or dogs that need brushing or to be carried up stairs or crated. Simply let me know your pet’s needs and I’ll be delighted to meet them. My friends know me as a big fan of dogs, and a cat whisperer (even grumpy ones!). I even have a cat tattoo, so a pet is always with me. As long as I can remember I have enjoyed walking, feeding, swimming with, medicating, brushing, and petting my family and friend’s variety of sizes and breeds of cats and dogs. I have done overnight stays as well and had a blast. I also have experience caring for snakes, hamsters, and birds if you need. I am an intern and recent college grad.

About: Hi! My name is Imani, and I am a caring, reliable pet sitter and dog walker who provides drop-in visits for both cats and dogs, as well as dog walking services. I have a natural love for animals and take pride in making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I follow all instructions carefully and make sure each pet’s routine is maintained, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning for cats, and playtime or walks based on their needs.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life starting with a family pet grooming business. Beyond that I’ve cared for family and friends dogs as needed. My two most common pups I take care of are a golden doodle and cattle dog mix. I work from home full time, which means I can do early morning (done by 8:30 am), lunch time (approx 11-1) and evening visits (after 5:30 pm). On weekends I’m available more time slots. If you’re unsure if I can fit your needs just ask! I have experience doing feeding, potty breaks on a leash, as well as in fenced in yards. The more detail/instructions you provide on care needed the better I can provide that. I am and will continue to be respectful of your dog and your property.

“The sweetest person I've met and my pup loves he so much couldn't ask for a better person to watch him when I wasn't able to. Very attentive when feeding and walking him at the times needed. Will definitely use her again when needed.”

About: Hello all, I've owned cats, dogs, and horses for over 20 years now and was their main caregiver starting at 8 y.o. I've worked at many horse barns and pet sitter for many many friends over the years. I have skills in pet healthcare (administering medication, baths, cutting nails, etc), young animals, dog & horse training, rescue animals, and elderly animals. I do my best to provide stress free care for your pets. I currently work from home! This means I am available at any time throughout the day. We can absolutely devise a schedule get your pet the best care. When pets are in my home or I visit a client's home, I always take note of the animal's state looking for stress or anything out of the ordinary. I also will inspect the space the pet is in and make sure dangerous items (small items/chocolate/other) is out of reach of the pet. I make sure everyone has access to water at all times.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with animals and the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I have been around animals my entire life, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine. I also have experience caring for senior dogs. My own dog has since passed away, but I helped care for him throughout his later years, which taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and providing extra comfort and support. Because of this experience, I am comfortable giving medications, helping pets stick to their routines, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and affection. Whether that means going on walks, playing fetch, providing activities, sticking to feeding schedules, or simply spending quality time cuddling and keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable, confident, and cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Since I am currently a college student and school is out, I have a lot of free time and a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of attention to the pets in my care. I also work as a babysitter, but Rover is my top priority job. I make sure to schedule my time carefully so that every pet receives the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, or simply spending quality time together, I am committed to providing reliable and attentive care. Because of my flexible availability, I can easily accommodate different routines and help pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently have three cats who, despite not paying rent, are very well taken care of! Caring for them is a big part of my daily routine. I make sure they receive their daily feedings, fresh water, interactive playtime, plenty of attention, and daily litter box cleanings to keep their environment clean and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible so their pets feel safe and comfortable. This includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, administering medications if needed, and providing lots of love and companionship. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide dependable care, maintain a clean environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I have been working around animals since I was 14, and my parents wouldn't let me bring a pet home. Since then I have worked with dog trainers, therapy horses, on therapy farms, with dog breeders, just so I could spend time around animals. As a mom to two little boys, I don't have the ability to take care of my own animal, but would love the opportunity to spend some time with yours. I am comfortable with all animals, of any shape and size, and have a knack of reading their body language so I can give them a positive experience. I understand caring for animals is not always about what I want to do with the animal, rather what makes the animal feel safe and comfortable. I am currently a stay at home Mom, and my boys are out of the house from 9 to 1:30. I would love to walk your dog or just stop by and say hello to your pet in the mornings. Safety First, for me and the animals I am caring for. I understand that all animals are different and have different needs and fears. I pride myself on being able to read an animal's body language to know if they feel unsafe or may do something harmful to themselves or those around them. Having worked extensively with animals and children I understand that pets and people need to monitored carefully when meeting each other for the first time. I also understand that animals are curios creatures and will try to get into anything that looks new and exciting. I am always on the lookout from an animal perspective of what a pet can get into.

I love them all:) I’m available any day, i absolutely love working with animals. When im not working I’m taking care of my fur babies and I love doing that.

About: I am currently a part-time Professional Dog Bather , working hands on with dogs of all kinds. With a safety certification and training, I work to ensure the safety and comfort of every dog under my care is always a priority. I was previously an Assistant Manager at Camp Bow Wow, a daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, supervising large and small dogs of all breeds for 2 years. I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, whether it be my own dogs and cats, or pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I have years of experience with walking, feeding, and watching over dogs and cats alike on a regular basis. I have spent most of my life dedicating much time, care, and love to any animal around me! I have experience sitting puppies as young as 3 months that I have participated in with training. I also had a senior dog of my own. I am comfortable and experienced with a wide range of breeds. I am aiming to go to be a dog groomer and would love to add to my experience! In 2023 I shadowed a Vet Doctor and Vet Tech at a clinic for two weeks, where I was able to witness and learn about various surgeries and basic health checkups. I assisted the team with care for both cats and dogs. I was Pet First Aid and CPR certified for 3 years. I am currently working a flexible schedule and have much time to dedicate to pet sitting and helping out some pet parents! I keep my calendar on my profile updated. I am very attentive to dogs needs. I will make sure your pet receives the attention and care that it requires. I am willing to crate the dog if needed. I will make sure they are active and have fun, while being safe. I can assure kindness and patience will be showed your pet. I can work in a variety of environments, and alongside other pets.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Adriana take care of my 5-month-old pit bull mix, and I can't recommend her enough! From the moment we met, she showed genuine love and care for my pup. She took the time to understand his needs and habits, ensuring he felt comfortable and safe while I was away. Adriana kept me updated with messages and photos, which really eased my worries. It was clear that my dog was having a great time with her! She engaged him in playtime, took him on walks, and even made sure he was fed on his regular schedule. I could see how much she truly enjoys spending time with dogs, and it gave me peace of mind knowing my furry friend was in such capable hands. If you're looking for someone to watch your pets, Adriana is the perfect choice!”

“Bryan did an amazing job watching Arya (German Shepard)! We have never left her with anyone other than family so we were very nervous, but he sent us photos each day. It’s nice to have someone we trust in the area! Our dog is also not the easiest as she doesn’t do well with other dogs all the time and can sometimes have anxiety but he understood and was able to accommodate her!”

“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”

“Fatima took care of our 75lb high energy Pitbull like it was her very own dog. We left for a vacation for 16 days and Fatima took over as both Mom and Pack Leader. She walked, fed, gave medication, cleaned ears, bathed, played with, etc. We got photos and vids daily, which gave us peace of mind that Leo was in great care. Highly Recommend!”

“Wonderful people with hearts of gold! They cared for our dog like he was their own—he had an incredible time filled with long walks, playful moments, and lots of love. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”

“Mary did a great job. She sent us regular pictures and kept our energetic dog active and entertained. We picked our dog up much later in the day than we thought but Mary was very flexible w our schedule and stayed up till we arrived. I'd say she went above and beyond to take care of our pooch!”
