“Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our one dog right before their stay. Debbie and Adam gave Cooper extra love the whole week since he was feeling sad and a little lonely. He always loves lounging with his friend Sadie too :)”
“Raeann is truly the best. She cares for Bronn as if he were her own. She always sends lots of updates and pictures (which as anxious dog mom I appreciate immensely). I could not recommend her enough and Bronn is looking forward his next visit!”
“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 💗”
“Nelia took excellent care of Daffy while our family was away! She sent us 2 to 3 updates each day, along with pictures of our dog, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. The photos showed that Daffy wasn't simply being boarded, but was truly being included in the family's daily activities. We could not be happier with the care and service Nelia provided. If you're in the Pittsburgh area and need a reliable, caring dog sitter, we highly recommend her. We will absolutely use her services again in the future. Thank you, Nelia, for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby!”
“Maria was so absolutely wonderful with our dog! We had to leave town last minute and were worried we wouldn’t be able to find anyone able to take care of our dog. She put us at ease and took such great care of him. We would be lucky to have her watch our pup again!”
“Amanda and Jack were absolutely amazing! My girl, Onyx, had an issue with her elbow, and they handled the situation with incredible care, compassion, and professionalism. They kept me updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind, and they even took her on a nature hike so she could enjoy some time outdoors. It's clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. I highly recommend Amanda's services and wouldn't hesitate to trust them with Onyx again!”
“Michelle was a great person for dodger. She took great care of him, he came home happy, and she frequently updated me with photos and texts about him. I will definitely use her again.”
“Our dog Woody had a great stay with Victoria. It was our first time leaving him and we loved seeing the videos of him that she sent twice a day. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive to any questions. He came home happy and tired from playing with all of his friends.”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Poppy, over the holiday weekend. Poppy has a special diet and can’t have any human food, and Julia was very careful to follow all of her instructions. Poppy also gets a little anxious when left alone, especially during fireworks, and Julia was incredibly patient and comforting with her throughout the weekend. Julia kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Poppy and knew exactly how to make her feel safe and comfortable. From the moment they met, Julia put Poppy at ease. it was obvious she’s a true dog person. Julia is mature, responsible, and an excellent communicator. We felt completely comfortable leaving Poppy in her care and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. We highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Elizabeth was fantastic! If I could give her a higher rating, I would. Her and her family treated my dog as if he was their own. She has a beautiful, fenced in back yard that allowed my dog to be outdoors without any worries! I know she was very attentive to him at all times, kept us updated everyday and sent several pictures which made my kids very happy! My pup does not like kennels and this was an alternative and it turned out to be the greatest experience for my dog and our family! Would definitely love for her to care for my dog anytime!! Thank you Elizabeth and your family!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Izzy had a great experience at Veronica’s! Veronica has a huge back yard where Izzy ran and played with other dogs. I received a lot of pictures and videos, which showed me that Izzy was having a great time!”
“My cat is anxious and shy and Audrey did a great job keeping her comfortable. She was very responsive and I received regular updates. My cat didn’t want to leave her at the end haha. Would recommend her to anyone. Thanks for everything! 🩷”
“Elaine did a wonderful job watching Max. She made sure he was exercised and played with him and he interacted with her dogs. I would highly recommend Elaine and her services. She also sent me photos and a video that I really appreciated. She asked if Max had any special needs and made sure he was happy.”
“I have no regrets or worries whatsoever when I left my Zahra with them for the weekend and she was well taken care of and they went beyond every expectation”
About: As a dog owner myself for the past 20 years, I am looking forward to giving your dog a fun and safe place to stay! I’m available both weekends and weekdays as I work from home Monday- Friday. Your dog will have fun and be cared for as one of our own! I have a large fenced in yard and a 3 year old labrador retriever to keep your dog company. We take walks several times a day and your dog is welcome to join us. I can crate your dog per your preference. Meet and greet with my dog is required.
“We feel very fortunate to have found Gary and his wife who took care of our dog, Grace, for a month! They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”

“Emily is so great to work with and super trustworthy! She has watched my cat twice and has been very responsive both times. She also helps me with little things like bringing in packages and communicating any behavior changes with my cat. Will definitely continue to hire her!!”
“Cailynn kept us so informed after her visits with Simon! I’ve only had him for a year and Simon is my first cat ever so I was nervous about leaving him. The updates and pictures gave me peace of mind that he was comfortable and taken care of. I will definitely be asking Cailynn to help me again!”
“We are very happy with the care Markie provides our two cats. She is dependable and great communicator. We have used her services several times and will plan to do so again in the future.”
“Karsyn was amazing! Even tho we booked her last minute during a holiday weekend, she was super nice, punctual, flexible, and helpful! The animals absolutely loved her, which I could tell through the great pictures she took of them during the visits! She had excellent communication and was overall above and beyond expectations! We will be using her again :)”
“Kennedy was great! She checked in on our kitty while we were away for a weekend, and provided cute photos. Our cat, Leia, seemed to really like her and she doesn’t always warm up to strangers right away. It gave me peace of mine throughout our trip knowing that Leia was being taken care of well. We will definitely be booking Kennedy again.”
“Amazing cat sitter with lots of attention to detail and care. She arranged a meet and greet before we left and sent lots of pictures with my cat. She was so sweet!”
About: My partner Jack and I love caring for pets! Both of us have been caretakers for pets practically our whole lives, including senior pets and pets with special needs, in addition to small animals like rodents and birds. Whoever you need help with, we’re more than capable. We are so excited to get to know your pets. With us, your pets will get all the attention and exercise they need during your busy day.

We know just how important your companion is to you, so safety is taken into consideration at all times. We keep dogs on leashes at all times when letting them go outside. I work as a barista at a coffee shop and Jack is an employee at Pitt. Together our schedules allow us to have at least 1 person home for most of the day. On rare occasions when neither of us are home, at most we are away for 3-4 hours. We have a large yard with a lead and 2 cats. Our house is moderately sized, with room for playing and relaxing. We are attentive to feeding schedules and potty breaks.

About: Hi, I’m Brianna! I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and have always had a passion for animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, so I understand that every pup has unique needs and routines. Whether your dog loves to play, go on walks, or simply relax and cuddle, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m currently taking online college classes, which allows me to be home most of the day and give pets plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, potty breaks, and love. I also have three friendly dogs of my own—Duke, Ramsey, and Cheddar—who have taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and caring for pets like family. My home has a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, and I always strive to create a calm, comfortable, and loving environment. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. My goal is to make every stay fun, safe, and stress-free for both you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently taking online college classes, which allows me to be home throughout the day. I plan my coursework around caring for the dogs, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I make time for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, walks if requested, and plenty of attention and cuddles. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love being able to spend my free time making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My home is a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated with kindness, patience, and love. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore while always being supervised. Inside, pets are welcome to relax and make themselves at home, whether that means lounging on the couch, playing with toys, or finding a cozy spot to nap. Because I’m currently taking online college classes, I’m home most of the day, so your dog will receive constant attention and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’ll follow your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications if needed, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to understand their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and secure throughout their stay. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll gladly send updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in trustworthy hands. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own three dogs every single day.
About: I grew up with dogs and have loved animals my entire life. I have been a pet sitter for many friends and neighbors over the years and had my own canine companion for 10 years. She passed away in November of 2023. Animals deserve to be loved and treated like family. I promise that your dogs will be treated very well and that they will truly enjoy their “vacation” at my home. It’s difficult to leave your “loved ones” in the care of others and I know that feeling. Rest assured that they will be cared for and spoiled to the best of my ability! I am a behavioral therapist who works with children and families. I have a hybrid job which means that I work from home doing Telehealth services and I also see clients in person at times. I am home for most of the day and this worked perfectly when I cared for my late dog, Arwen. I do not have any pets currently. I have an elevated deck that is only accessible from the house. It is surrounded and my dog loved to spend time out there basking in the sun. I have a yard but it is not fenced in. My neighborhood is quiet and very dog friendly.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could leave 6 stars, I would! This was my first ever Rover reservation, so it’s a little overwhelming trying to choose a sitter from all the options — knowing they’re all strangers after all. I booked last minute AND I adjusted my reservation. Sara was so accommodating and flexible with all of my needs. I immediately felt at ease when I met her and her pup Grim, and I knew Cody was in good hands. Definitely will use again and recommend. Thanks for treating Cody like one of your own!”
“Janet is an amazing dog care provider!! She genuinely love my dog like her own, and is very affectionate and attentive to him. She has been very flexible and accommodating when my schedule changes, and always has a positive disposition. She has proven 100% reliable and I am so grateful my dog and I have had the pleasure of getting to know her and her family.”
About: I want to alert anyone who wants to book- we have 3 dogs with varying energy levels. My name is Emme I have had a dog experience since we got my dog bell as a puppy. Since then I have rescued senior dogs with lots of complex needs. I am familair with giving shots and medications. I currently have three dogs one we recently rescued who is absolutely afraid of human touch. I am completely aware of dogs boundaries and will do what they need of me. Currently it is just me-Emme for dog walking , drop in visits, and house sitting I currently am day to day substitute teaching. However, my mom is always home as she works from home. I am still working on getting my masters degree so there will still be times I am home more than not. I am very aware of dogs and their individual needs and personalities. I allow lots of time outside to sniff and go potty. I spend time talking to them and engaging with them in ways that they enjoy like play, snuggling, or just simply sitting in the same room crocheting next to them.
“Deanna could not have been better with my two dogs. My Malamute was getting jealous of any attention Deanna got from any other dog, including my Pomsky, and she handled it wonderfully. She, very obviously, loves dogs and knows how to handle them. Also, her dogs were wonderful.”
About: I can be with your dog almost 24/7 because I work from home. We have a fenced in yard. I have trained 2 adult dogs to do multiple tricks, not take food, not run, and be good with children. Along with 10 plus years of things I have forgotten. I have experience with puppies and would prefer not to watch them. (negotiable) I have twins, and I think two human babies are easier than one puppy. I work from home, have a flexible schedule, a fenced in yard, and live in a suburban neighborhood where I can safely walk your dog/s. We have been dog owners for 15 years until our last baby passed in January at the age of 14. We have 10-year-old twins who love dogs and would love to play with yours, so your dog must be friendly with children. They are responsible enough to not bother your dog if it doesn't want to be bothered with though. I will have your pet with me on a pet bed, couch, or floor near me all day while I work from home. I can let them roam around the fenced in back yard as long as they would like. I am able to take them for walks at lunch and any time after 4:30 pm. We have 10 year old twins who love animals and would enjoy giving your fur baby extra attention. They are also responsible enough to not bother your dog if it doesn't want to be bothered with though.
About: Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, offering comfort through tough times. I genuinely love being around animals and caring for them. (I allow animals on my bed I’m not sure how to change that ) I have classes, but your fur baby will always be my top priority. I’m home every evening to care for them, except Fridays when I’m working on the ambulance. Walking, feeding, watering, bathing and getting all their zoomies out. I enjoy walking and physical activity meaning they will be tired out by the end of the night.
“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”
“We had a great experience with Gretchen! We were in town for a wedding and looking for someone to come to our rental house and sit with our dog there. Even though this is not a standard dog-sitting situation, she was willing to accommodate us. Our pup was calm and content when we returned and everything worked out great.”
“Tia was a great puppy sitter for our Monty! She updated us throughout the day with videos. Monty was playful and happy. She took great care of our fur baby! Would definitely recommend her.”
About: I walked and trained dogs in Manhattan for over 10 years. I’ve worked with many types of breeds and dogs of all ages. All my clients were very happy with my services. I am very knowledgeable about dog products and training products. I am self-employed and set my own hours so I can fit any walks into my weekly routine. I have a car so can travel to nearby locations. I currently am only available for dog walking at this time. I am available to feed dogs or administer medication or play inside if requested.

“Tiffany was fantastic! She handled my last-minute request perfectly and kept me updated with adorable photos of my dog hanging out with her kids. My pup seemed to love their company. Would highly recommend.”
About: I am a current kennel attendant at Camp Bow Wow and a volunteer at Kitty Queen Cat Rescue for many years! I have plenty of experience with all ages and breeds of animals! I am completely available outside of my doggie daycare schedule! It does change weekly, but I don’t mind squeezing your pets into my schedule! I am very well educated on the love and care that our furbabies need to thrive! I pride myself in my commitment to building a trust filled relationship with every animal I come across!
About: Hi! I’m Karsyn, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been a dedicated dog mom to my Mini Australian Shepherd for the past 5 years, and before him I grew up with dogs my entire childhood. I truly treat my pets like my children, and I’ll care for yours with that same level of love, patience, and attention! When my dog was a puppy, I enrolled him in training classes, which taught me so much about dog behavior, body language, and positive interactions. That experience gave me a better understanding of how dogs communicate and how to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. One of my absolute favorite parts of pet sitting is sending photos of your pets to you! I basically turn into the pet paparazzi and love snapping pictures throughout our time together. If you want one update, I can do that. If you want one million pictures, I can absolutely do that too;) I know how hard it is to be away from your furry family member, so I love sending lots of updates to give you peace of mind, and hopefully a few photos worthy for your camera roll! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and have no breed restrictions. If your pup is a strong puller, that’s no problem-I’m confident handling energetic dogs on walks as well! I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is always to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and excited to book again! I work full-time Monday-Thursday and have full availability for pet care Friday-Sunday. Occasionally I can come evening during the week after work when need be I don’t offer boarding in my home, but I’d love to care for your pet in the comfort of theirs! My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Expect lots of love, playtime, and PLENTY of photo updates. I have a slight obsession with taking pictures of animals so If you want one picture, I can do that. If you want one million… I can definitely do that too! 📸🐾
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life. I take care of my 2 dogs at home, while helping out family and friends by walking and feeding their pets. I am graduating from college in May, currently work part-time, and would like to use my extra time to spend time with and play with your pets! I will come to your house to feed, play, and walk your dog(s). If your dog is car friendly, i would be more than happy to take them to a park. If you have a cat, I will clean their litter box, feed and give them water, I can also play with them if that is something they like.
About: I have been around dogs since I was a baby. My current dogs have PTSD, meaning I understand how to handle special needs pets. I would love to care for your pets. I have no job, meaning I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. Even though i’m unable to keep them at my own house, I am fully willing to watch them at yours. My own pets don’t particularly enjoy visitors. My two dogs have post traumatic stress disorder. They came from a bad place, and ever since I adopted them, I have been rehabilitating them. Many pets take patience and love to come out of their shells. Years later, my dogs are feeling a lot better, even if they’re still scared of loud noises.
“Sheena filled in for my regular dogwalker when they were on vacation and she was great! It’s apparent that she loves animals and connects with them quickly! Always so sweet and communicative. I will definitely use her services again if/when needed!”
“Jill is very reliable, caring, and attentive. My dog was happy, well cared for, and I appreciated the updates while I was away. We would definitely use her services again!!”

About: As someone who is always trying to live vicariously through dog owners, I have been a reliable and eager puppy and cat sitter since I was young - for friends, coworkers, neighbors, and extended family. I have experience and am comfortable feeding and exercising large and small dogs, puppies and seniors. I have always had cats, and have plenty of experience with administering oral medicines and asthma treatment. I am comfortable with cleaning messes, longterm stays, overnights, and honestly whatever else is needed during your time away. I would love to send pictures and updates of your pets as much as you would like them - your pets become main characters in my life within minutes of meeting them! I am your introverted, nurturing childless millennial that treats every animal with endless attention and love. As a speech-language pathologist, I also think that understanding animal communication and respecting boundaries are key. If your pet is showing me they need space, I will listen to them and make sure they are well fed, their needs are met and a soft presence is near. If they are showing me that they need more love and attention, I will stay and give them more love and attention! I can’t wait to meet your furry family. Right now, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I’m a teacher on summer break and transitioning into a teletherapy position, so I have plenty of availability to care for your pets throughout the day. I believe pets are happiest when their routines stay as consistent as possible, so I make it a priority to learn each pet’s normal schedule, preferences, personality, and needs before their owner leaves. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes and outdoor areas as needed, administer medications when required, and make sure pets receive the exercise, enrichment, affection, and companionship they have when you’re home. I pay close attention to body language, behavior changes, appetite, energy levels, and overall well-being. As a speech-language pathologist, communication is a big part of my professional life, and I bring that same attentiveness to the animals in my care. I believe good pet care means respecting boundaries, recognizing needs, and responding appropriately to what an animal is communicating. I also love sending photos and updates, because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, loving environment and to care for your pets the same way I would hope someone would care for my own.
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of pets. Growing up with multiple pets taught me how to recognize their needs, provide loving care, and keep them safe and comfortable. I currently enjoy going on daily walks, so I'm happy to give dogs the exercise and attention they need. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll treat them like they're my own. I'm reliable, patient, and understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. My schedule is very flexible right now! I recently finished my nursing externship and have a break before returning to school. From August 10th through August 19th, I'm available most days for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I'm happy to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits whenever possible. Once my school schedule begins, I'll update my availability, but for now I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! When caring for pets in my client's home, I always follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I use a leash for all walks and outdoor potty breaks, and I can crate dogs when needed if that's part of their routine. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I'm happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any special care your pet requires. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you're away.
About: I have had animals all my life. I have also worked with trainers and have hands on experience. I rode horses competitively for many years so am comfortable around any animal. At my childhood home I have a German Shepard and a Shih Tzu, along with two cats. In my own home I have two cats and a dog. Not at my home but I do have a horse! Have cared for multiple horses over the years along with barn work. I am currently a nanny about to start massage school in the summer! I also provide pet care of my employers. I have evening and weekend availability. I’ve worked with small and big dogs. I don’t think I’ve ever met an animal that hasn’t liked me. I’m very patient and trustworthy. I also know how to properly interact with cats.
About: I’ve watched dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. I’ve been a pet owner most of my life. I have watched all ages, sizes, and breeds. Since I’m a freelancer, my schedule is extremely flexible. Here to help! Work with big and small dogs and old and young dogs regularly. Let me know ahead of time if you have any special instructions for your pets. Whether it’s a specific dietary restriction or a medication, it’s important I know what I’m getting into before I accept a gig. I’m very comfortable staying overnights with pets as long as groceries or grocery money is provided along with a comfortable accommodations as I try my best to stay with your pet most of the day if not the whole day. My schedule is flexible due to my freelancer life. I can set routines with your pets if needed. I’m great at following instructions and will make sure to communicate with you updates. Whatever you need, I got you covered. I’ll visit your home and follow whatever routine you provide me for your fur baby. If dogs are allowed to go on adventures, I like taking them to dog parks or petco for a treat. It’s important to make sure your pet is exercised, fed, and ready to nap so when you come home your pup or kitty will be happy to see you.

About: I’ve taken care of my own cats and dogs since I was little. I played with them, walked the dogs when needed, fed them, cleaned out litters boxes or the yard. I’ve played with neighborhood pets too. I work at a hospital, nights. I work three days a week and my typical shift is 7pm to 7am. I get home, sleep for a couple hours, and then I get up. I can do pet care the moment I’m done with work or later in the afternoon. I have two cats personally. They are fed every morning when I wake up, and every evening my boyfriend comes to feed them while I go to work. They have dry food that they can graze on through the day, water bowls out in the kitchen, a clean litter box that is in my own room because that’s where they know. They go yearly to the vet for check ups and shots. And they are always given love.
About: I have taken care of and loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I have had my rescue dog for about 11 years now. He certainly has not always been an easy dog to take care of, as he was in an abusive home prior to my family adopting him. That being said, I have a ton of patience with dogs of all kinds, and want them to feel my warmth and love!! Additionally, I nanny, and one year the family got two new puppies. Throughout the day we would take them for walks that aligned with their abilities, ensuring that they got the exercise they needed but never pushing them past their limits. My experience with dogs varies from puppy to senior care, and I am very adaptable and flexible! This summer I will be nannying the same family Monday-Friday from 9am until about 4 or 5 pm. However, I am more than willing to walk your pet before and/or after I am done nannying (7-8 am & 5-wheneverpm) Currently, I have a dog that does not do too well with others dogs in the same vicinity… so I cannot house other dogs in my own home. However, I will of course follow whatever rules given to me to ensure maximum care for your pet!

About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for animals since I was 10 years old. I’ve owned a boxer for the past 10 years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily care, exercise, feeding, playtime, and understanding dogs’ different personalities and needs. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, check in on, and care for their pets while they were away. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I recently finished student teaching and currently have interviews for teaching positions throughout the summer, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available most weekdays and have open availability on weekends as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, active, and cared for. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines to help pets feel relaxed while their owners are away. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and needs and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also keep a clean, safe environment and treat every pet like they’re my own.

She has a beautiful, fenced in back yard that allowed my dog to be outdoors without any worries! I know she was very attentive to him at all times, kept us updated everyday and sent several pictures which made my kids very happy!

“We feel very fortunate to have found Gary and his wife who took care of our dog, Grace, for a month! They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Kyle was amazing. Having had our rescue dog for just 3 months, I wasn’t sure how the overnight boarding would go. He gave our Bugsy all the attention he needed to feel secure. He even sent pictures capturing Bugsy’s sleepover fun! I would definitely recommend him.”

It’s such a relief to know we have someone we can trust—this was truly above and beyond. Highly recommend and will absolutely book again!”
