Personalized care for your dog or cat - Spring
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Spring
“I was very nervous leaving my Lilly and Dunkin . Margaret put my mind at ease with sending pictures of them while I was on vacation. I would use her again without a doubt .”
“Jennifer is top notch! My dogs were picked up happy and healthy! She took them on several walks and kept us updated with pictures. She is definitely dependable and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to leave them there again! Thanks Jennifer!”
“This is the second time that Keely has kept Russ for us and we are so pleased with her care. She walks him and sends me pics everyday of their adventures. We will definitely be using Keely in the future!”
“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”
“Alexis was wonderful! She took great care of Becker and he enjoyed playing with her pup Blue. She shared pictures and both dogs and they were having a great time. Definitely will book with Alexis aagain!”
“Margaret and her husband were amazing with Maverick. You can tell they are really knowledgeable and love animals. She sent regular updates with pics. Just a short trip right off of I79 to get to her house that has a big fenced in yard. I felt completely safe leaving my pup there. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Definitely five stars!!! Both Maureen and her husband took such great care of Cooper and went above and beyond. Daily pictures and communication, could not ask for better care. We weren’t sure he’d want to come back home!!”
“Beth was amazing! From the very beginning, her communication was excellent. It’s obvious that she and Greg love dogs. She sent updates with pictures a couple of times each day. Linus was loved, cared for and pampered. He had fun with the other dogs and came home a very happy and tired boy. We’ve definitely found our new pet sitter. Thank you, Beth and Greg, for taking such great care of Linus 💕”
“Jodie was awesome in taking care of our two labs. We moved to Colorado last year and was looking for someone to care for our labs. One of our pups is older, nervous, and has never been watched by someone other than family. Both of our pups did great! I highly recommend Jodie.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my pup. She went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable. Pictures were sent to reassure me he was doing great. Will definitely hire her again!”
“My husband and I had to go out of town for his work. Our boy Fenrir needed to be watched seeing we couldn't take him. We are very pleased. After the meet and greet I felt comfortable leaving Fenrir. He had so much fun and was well taken care of. We most definitely were able to have a good time and not have to worry about Fenrir. We most definitely will be booking again. If we could give more than 5 stars we would.”
“Always feel good about leaving our pup, Griffin, with Megan, Gus & the boys. I love that she sends me pictures while we are away. He always looks like he is having fun! Meagan is also very flexible and when we need to add doggy daycare or pick him up late, she is more than accommodating!! It’s a real blessing to have her watch our dog!!🥰💕👍”
“We are so incredibly grateful to Mary and her husband, Dana, for taking such wonderful care of our pup over the Fourth of July holiday. Leaving your dog while you’re away is never easy, but they gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. There was a heat wave during her stay, and we especially appreciated how thoughtful they were about keeping the weather in mind. Our corgi has a thick double coat and overheats easily, so it meant a lot that they adjusted her walks and activities to keep her safe and comfortable. It’s clear they genuinely care about the well-being of the dogs they watch. Wynnie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious she had a great time, and we know she’ll be excited to go back the next time! We can’t recommend Mary and Dana highly enough. If you’re looking for kind, attentive, and trustworthy people to care for your dog, look no further. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of Wynnie! ☺️”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Daisey. She sent pictures, answered my questions, and overall I believe my Daisey felt relaxed and was taken good care of, which is what matters. I have no complaints or issues.”
“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Maria was amazing! She came through for us at the very last minute and literally saved our vacation. She treated our sweet senior dog like family and that’s all I could ask for ! So grateful for her !”

Cat caregivers near you - Spring
About: With over a decade of hands‑on animal‑care experience, I bring a calm, knowledgeable approach to every pet I work with. I’m a Zoo Science major with training in behavior observation, enrichment planning, and safe handling techniques. I’m comfortable with structured routines, behavior cues, and cats who need a little extra patience. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior needing slow, gentle care, I’m here to make them feel safe and happy.
“I was happy to have Kristen come feed my kitties while we were traveling, She is very responsible and prompt, and I know I can trust her to do everything just right, and send me updates every day.

About: I have had pets for all of my life and have gained a wealth of experience along the way. For several years I worked at a pet boarding and grooming facility where I obtained the knowledge of light grooming, and administering medications such as insulin. During my time working at this facility I also learned how to handle pets that may be aggressive wether it was caused by food, toys, or anxiety. I currently have four dogs and two cats who I love dearly. I have also had the joy of taking care of many animals all the way from puppy/kitten hood all the way to the rainbow bridge. I know how hard it can be to find someone you can trust to care for your fuzzy family member, but I hope you can find that with me. If you have any questions please ask me and I will be happy to answer
“Monica was absolutely wonderful!!! we had to cancel a vacation last month because our usual sitter went out of town for the summer. We had two other trips booked, and we didn’t know what we were going to do. We found Monica on rover.com and she was amazing! She did such a great job taking care of our kitty Salem! We will definitely refer her to our friends and family. We will also be using her in the future! I can say with total confidence, your pets will be in good hands out with Monica!”
“Colleen is simply the best! She takes such excellent care of our animals and house, we love having her over. It is such a pleasure knowing we can go away and leave the house and pets in such good hands. Thank you again!!”
About: I have cared for cats and kittens of all ages (including neonates). I am knowledgeable about cat behavior and their needs. I am experienced doing simple grooms (sanitary trims, paw trims, etc.) in the process of learning to do full grooms, I am experienced in administering most medications (oral, topical, etc.), nail trimming, bathing and more! I am also experienced with working with feral cats. I really enjoy finding toys for cats that don't have much interest in them and getting them to play! While making house visits I can provide some services for your cats: I will bring my own supplies. My tools are sanitized between clients. Lion cut or full groom: $20-$40 depending on toleration Cat sanitary cut and nail trim: $15-$25 Full groom, nail trim and bath: $45-$70 depending on toleration of the grooming process. Nail trim only: $10 Dematting, nail trim, and bath: $50 and up depending on the time it takes to work out matts and how tolerant your pet is (for severe matting I will recommend a full shave) If your pet is severely stressed during a groom, I may not be able to finish the process, or it may take more time than usual to help your pet adjust. I intend to keep my practices fear free. Fleas: If fleas are found, a $15 charge is added to your bill. This goes towards the process of keeping fleas from infecting my own animals upon my return home. All prices, on all services are subject to change due to time involved and your pets tolerance.

I have no fear of animals, big or small, so am able to handle stressful situations with animals without being scared.

“Lauren took great care of our pups during her visit, and was very accommodating of our senior dog, who needed some extra attention due to some medical issues. She communicated everything clearly and sent instant updates as to how our dogs were doing while we were away. We would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ was raised on a small dairy/animal farm since I was a kid so I have lots of experience with dogs/cats. I have never not had a dog in my life… I’m very loving, caring and responsible. Trained puppies up to senior dogs with medical conditions that required meds like my own. I am currently not working and would love to share my home and my yellow lab, Mason and cat, Sophie with others. I have a nice size yard and a park just down the street. Quiet neighborhood. Dog friendly. I do not have children. I do have a crate if needed. There is also a long tie out that I use for my 2 year old yellow lab. I do have a house cat but she stays up stairs and likes to be alone.
“Leslie was great! My three cats liked her and they were well looked after. I appreciated the photos and text updates, especially since I had been a little worried about how the cats would handle me being away. 10/10 I would have her drop in to care for them again!”
About: I have been a reliable cat sitter for friends and families for years, grew up with cats, and currently have one of my own. I am used to adjusting to all their personalities, from gremlin to ghosts!
About: I love caring for, walking, and training my dog. I would love to share this passion of teaching and training with others and their fur babies! I currently work full time close to home but would love to fit it caring for your fur babies while you are out of your home! I have experience working with friendly and not always welcoming fur puppies. I want to make them as comfortable as possible whether that is inside your home or going for walks nearby!
About: I enjoy training puppies, spending time with dogs and cats. I have loved animals since I was a little girl. Currently attending Vet Tech school. I currently work full time 8:30-4:30, but have plenty of time after that! I also have my weekends completely free and would love to spend time with your pets on the weekends! I am good at getting dogs and cats to take medications, I try to keep dogs on a schedule if I can, and any dietary needs are super important. I also tend to give animals more attention than they may want sometimes.
About: I’ve been helping take care of pets ever since I was young. I have a dog and cat of my own that are like my children so I know just how much they mean and the responsibility that comes with them. I’m originally from Morgantown, WV, but I attend school at PennWest Edinboro. During my summers in WV, I work at a family owned dog kennel and daycare. In addition to that I have helped family and friends with their pets while they have been on vacation, work trips, etc. Both of these have given me lots of experience with pets and understanding that they are all unique in their own way. I’ll always treat them like my own! I’m a full-time student, but my schedule is very flexible given 4 out of 5 of my classes are able to be done online. I have one class on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2-3:15pm. I also help assistant coach the women’s club basketball team which practices Mondays and Wednesdays from 6-8pm. With the exception of those commitments I’m available most any other time! I’ll be able to stop in to clients homes and care for their animals and give them company. I can also take them to nearby trails for walks or even play in water if wanted!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Spring
“Highly recommend Deanna to care for your pet. She made certain my dog had a safe environment. The house is setup perfectly for guest dogs. Additionally, I felt like I received exceptional customer service and Deanna demonstrated distinctive pet care competence. My best Rover experience to date.”
“What an amazing young lady! Positive, concerned, kind and gentle! Willing to go the extra mile for Murray and us! She listened to us, gave us suggestions…this was our first time leaving Murray with anyone! Keely provided pictures of Murray and asked great questions the entire time she had Mur! Keely agreed to a meet and greet before her time with Murray and it went superbly well. She got down on her knees and talked to Murray. She gave him time to adjust to her and on our designated day Mur walked right up to her and gave her a kiss! It was great! It did our hearts gud! Mur is a senior dog and we are thankful to have found Keely:) She is and will be our go to person from now on!”
“I have been looking for a new dog sitter. My dog loves other dogs so I wanted her to have a playmate and the house needed a fenced in yard. Karen’s name popped up and I am so happy I found her. It’s difficult to leave your dog with a stranger for the first time but upon meeting Karen my fears were alleviated. She was very attentive to my dog and I was impressed that she had read my dogs bio prior to my arrival and already new the details I wanted her to know. I would highly recommend Karen to watch your dog.”
About: As a nurse, fur mom, foster mom, and Vice President of a rescue, I have unique skills that make me the best fit for the job! I have experience with dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens including neonatal. I have been lucky enough to have the opportunity to focus on Rover and devote my full attention, time, and love to providing pet care to countless families in the area. Outside of my natural nursing instincts in wanting to help others, my profession has also made me someone mindful of the environment and the ones I am caring for. Safety is a top priority. Regardless of whether the care provided is in your home or mine, you know you will be comfortable leaving your fur babies in my hands. I effectively multi-task, where I can be the "fun friend" for your pet while maintaining a safe environment. I believe it is essential to not only be aware of the surroundings and assess various safety factors of the environment but also to be mindful of the animals, their behaviors, and the situation.
“Stephanie is awesome. When I leave my pets to her, I am worry free. She takes such a good care of our two dogs and she helps us with teaching our puppies some basic puppy manners. I highly recommend stephanie. I dont see myself using any other dog sitter than her in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years and truly love animals. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and treat every pet like they’re my own. I stay at home while my fiancé works full-time, which allows me to provide attentive, 24/7 care for your pets. Because I’m home throughout the day and night, I’m able to handle all of your pet’s needs right away—whether that’s walks, feedings, playtime, medication, or just companionship. Your pets will never be left alone for long periods and will receive constant supervision, comfort, and care in a calm, loving environment. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every setting. In my home, pets are supervised, kept in a clean and calm environment, and never left unattended for long periods. I follow all feeding instructions, leash pets securely for walks, and make sure doors and gates are always secured. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their pet’s usual routine to reduce stress. I double-check locks, keep food and hazards out of reach, and provide regular updates so owners always feel confident and informed. My goal is to create a safe, trusted, and familiar environment wherever your pet is staying.

I take a very limited number of animals at one time so that your Furry family member will become a member of our family while they’re here! As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to caring for your pets! Whether it’s a cozy staycation while you’re away or a fun-filled walk to keep them active, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. ** at this time I cannot accept intact male dogs** thank you for your understanding! I work part time, I am home the majority of most days so chances are I will have availability for you! I am flexible with days and times! Last minute plans? No problem! I have a large fenced in 1/2 acre partially wooded dog run. I have multiple sized crates and smaller fenced in areas as well with plenty of space for you pooch!

I will buy them food before I will buy stuff for me. My dogs are indoor dogs, but I do have a fenced in backyard for those that like to run and do zoomies. They all have fluffy beds to sleep on if they choose not to sleep with me.
About: I’ve always had animals my entire life of all sorts and prefer their company. Naturally animals are comfortable in my presence. I am basically Snow White. Pet care is a regular part of my routine that I could easily adapt to your requirements. I work a few hour during the week for a few days and have plenty of time to accommodate your needs. I have fenced yard if necessary for run time. But I can make time to visit the home of your pets for their comfort ability.
About: I have had pets my whole childhood and my love for animals all shapes and sizes is huge! My experience in pet care grew in high school and through college when I would frequently pet sit friends and families animals. I am reliable, punctual, and I put communication and love at the top of my priority list! I am currently on summer break from graduate school and collegiate athletics. My only job right now is to train girls for basketball so much schedule is very open to love on animals! In the client’s home, I can either stay with, check on, crate, or spend one on one time with their fur family member(s). I can also house sit, water plants, and take care of any other daily needs the hime may require.
About: Hello! I have owned animals my whole life. I strive to give every animal that comes into my life the best care imaginable! We have four female dogs (one is intact) a rabbitry in the backyard, and two lovely horses that are boarded on a farm I work at! I have intense knowledge into just about every stage in the walk of life when it comes to dogs! We have doggie pools for the summer and a big fenced in yard year round! We offer all sorts of enrichment for dogs of all ages and plenty of time to stretch legs and just have fun being a dog! Not only do I have vet assistance training, which is helpful for any sort of medical condition, I also have deep knowledge into dog behavior and training, which definitely helps with those puppies! I also have grooming experience! Does your dog need nail trims or desheded while I help with their care? Not a problem! We have a nice neighborhood to go on walks as well! When your dogs are here, it's like they are having a vacation as well! Restrictions: no intact males please! We prefer crate trained since we have young children (note: our children are never left unsupervised around dogs! They have great manners and are becoming amazing dog owners themselves!) Absolutely no aggressive dogs! Saturdays and Sundays I feed mornings at the farm I work at, I'm normally up by 8am! I'm away for 2 hours maximum, then home until evening feeds! I feed evenings 7 days a week, I'm gone for approximately 3 hours! Dogs are allowed on the farm property if it is absolutely necessary, I prefer to keep boarding dogs at home because there are many risks with bringing dogs to farms! We can let dogs out to potty even during the night! Every animal that comes into my care is treated with utmost respect and the best quality care one can provide. Ideally our dogs are only crates for about 5 hours a day, and then mostly through the night.

I will be sure to send you frequent updates and photos, these are the kinds of things that make me feel secure when I am away from ny pet. I am respectful and caring too. I will take great care of your space and show your pet lots of attention and affection. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! My job is pretty flexible so I can make most things work with enough notice. I'm happy to take your dog out in the morning, afternoon, or evening! If your request includes me entering your home I will be sure to follow your instructions while being careful, considerate, and keeping you informed via message and photos.

I also offer the bonus of doggy daycare and boarding to anyone who needs it! Warning: your dog(s) will leave very spoiled!!! Must be friendly towards other dogs.
“Hands down the best Dog walker I’ve ever had! The constant check in, the picture updates, everything. I was a little scared at first since my pup doesn’t do well with new people but from the pictures she’s sent me, my pup fell in love with Ms. Kristen. 10/10 will book again in the future!!!”
“Keely has looked after my dog before as a sitter, and I was so happy to have her take my pup for a walk recently. She’s always so kind, reliable, and clearly loves animals. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited every time she sees her! It’s such a comfort knowing that Keely already knows my dog, so I can trust that she’s in great hands. She always takes the time to give updates and really goes the extra mile. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Keely to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker or sitter!”

I would 100% recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
About: I’ve spent the past several years working hands-on as a veterinary assistant and dog trainer, and I truly love what I do. In the clinic, I’ve helped care for pets of all ages and temperaments, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for during what can sometimes be stressful visits. As a trainer, I focus on building trust and clear communication between dogs and their owners, using patience and positive reinforcement to create lasting results. Whether I’m assisting in medical care or helping shape better behavior, my goal is always the same—happy, healthy pets and confident, informed owners who feel supported every step of the way.

I also have a cart to pull behind my bike if there are any pets that aren't so active but like fresh air. My cats enjoy the luxury of having their own bedroom so they can have peace from the dogs when needed. And of course I have a plethora of toys and treats. I am willing to make accommodations for special needs pets.

Let me take a minute to fill you in on myself, my household, and all the love I have for dogs and cats alike! Right off the bat, I do want to be clear about who you will be primarily working with and who will primarily be taking care of your pet. Sara and Ben are both listed since we are married, but Sara is the primary caregiver. So all information is primarily about Sara's skills and experience along with Ben's and as a couple. Ben is very active during boarding situations but all other services are done by Sara, with Ben popping in on occasion. With that said here we go... I have years of fostering experience with rehabbing, training, and loving dogs of all situations, behaviors, and backgrounds. I have had personal animals of my own for almost 20 years now and loved every second of it! I started an animal rescue here in Erie several years ago, so my love and care of animals is very real! I was also a Vet Tech for several years! Owners deserve to feel their home and animals are safe when they are away. I want all owners to not feel a shred of worry or anxiousness, I know it can be hard to be away from them. I want you to enjoy yourself, thats what is most important! I take it very seriously to send updates and pictures as much as the owner would like! I know it can help the worry of being away to see how much fun their animals are having and all the love they are receiving--so I will be diligent about those!! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions you might have! Happy to answer all I can! We work full time 9-5 and have 4 dogs of our own. My schedule is more flexible than Bens. Ben and I are amazing animal owners and their care is number one in our lives and we revolve our lives around theirs. They are not just animals to us, they are our children. Structure and routine is vital and taken seriously. We follow the animals routine and needs to the best of our ability. They need routine and structure when their owners are gone and that is not something we take lightly. Our home has a fenced yard, plenty of room in the home to play, and walks in the neighborhood if allowed. At someone's home, I will follow the guidelines for that animal to a tee based on their set up and owners request.
About: I’ was raised on a small dairy/animal farm since I was a kid so I have lots of experience with dogs/cats. I have never not had a dog in my life… I’m very loving, caring and responsible. Trained puppies up to senior dogs with medical conditions that required meds like my own. I am currently not working and would love to share my home and my yellow lab, Mason and cat, Sophie with others. I have a nice size yard and a park just down the street. Quiet neighborhood. Dog friendly. I do not have children. I do have a crate if needed. There is also a long tie out that I use for my 2 year old yellow lab. I do have a house cat but she stays up stairs and likes to be alone.
About: Thank you for visiting my profile! My partner and I love animals, especially dogs. I have no fear of animals, big or small, so am able to handle stressful situations with animals without being scared. I also have some experience working at dog shelters and day cares, where I was trained to handle stressful situations. We have always had pets and caring for them was our responsibility growing up. We are empathetic and energetic people, so your pet will get loads of love and playtime. I'm very good about bringing a dish and water with us while we walk in the heat. I am usually available all day! I would love the chance to meet your furry four legged friend A typical day includes plenty of playtime with my two boys, hanging out in my shady backyard, and relaxing on the futon in the AC My partner and I have a fenced in yard and two friendly excited pups to provide company! always keep water bowls fresh, filled, and cleaned. many trips outside for playtime and bathroom breaks. plenty of toys and fun to keep your pet(s) entertained and happy
About: I’ve been helping take care of pets ever since I was young. I have a dog and cat of my own that are like my children so I know just how much they mean and the responsibility that comes with them. I’m originally from Morgantown, WV, but I attend school at PennWest Edinboro. During my summers in WV, I work at a family owned dog kennel and daycare. In addition to that I have helped family and friends with their pets while they have been on vacation, work trips, etc. Both of these have given me lots of experience with pets and understanding that they are all unique in their own way. I’ll always treat them like my own! I’m a full-time student, but my schedule is very flexible given 4 out of 5 of my classes are able to be done online. I have one class on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2-3:15pm. I also help assistant coach the women’s club basketball team which practices Mondays and Wednesdays from 6-8pm. With the exception of those commitments I’m available most any other time! I’ll be able to stop in to clients homes and care for their animals and give them company. I can also take them to nearby trails for walks or even play in water if wanted!
About: I have had pets my whole childhood and my love for animals all shapes and sizes is huge! My experience in pet care grew in high school and through college when I would frequently pet sit friends and families animals. I am reliable, punctual, and I put communication and love at the top of my priority list! I am currently on summer break from graduate school and collegiate athletics. My only job right now is to train girls for basketball so much schedule is very open to love on animals! In the client’s home, I can either stay with, check on, crate, or spend one on one time with their fur family member(s). I can also house sit, water plants, and take care of any other daily needs the hime may require.
About: I've grown up with many dogs and at one point had 4 in the house at once! I get along great with puppies of all ages and energy levels. Dogs and cats alike are beautiful animals. I love spending time cuddled up on the couch or going on a jog. I'm a full time caregiver so I'm always very attentive. I work part time and have lots of free time. I'd always be available to stay overnight and be there during the day to play! I'm flexible and willing to keep a regular schedule I know lots of wooded areas and trails around the area. My home is not currently available to board your cute pups so I'm willing to travel.

“I was very nervous leaving my Lilly and Dunkin . Margaret put my mind at ease with sending pictures of them while I was on vacation. I would use her again without a doubt .”
“Jennifer is top notch! My dogs were picked up happy and healthy! She took them on several walks and kept us updated with pictures. She is definitely dependable and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to leave them there again! Thanks Jennifer!”
“This is the second time that Keely has kept Russ for us and we are so pleased with her care. She walks him and sends me pics everyday of their adventures. We will definitely be using Keely in the future!”
“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”
“Alexis was wonderful! She took great care of Becker and he enjoyed playing with her pup Blue. She shared pictures and both dogs and they were having a great time. Definitely will book with Alexis aagain!”
“Margaret and her husband were amazing with Maverick. You can tell they are really knowledgeable and love animals. She sent regular updates with pics. Just a short trip right off of I79 to get to her house that has a big fenced in yard. I felt completely safe leaving my pup there. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Beth was amazing! From the very beginning, her communication was excellent. It’s obvious that she and Greg love dogs. She sent updates with pictures a couple of times each day. Linus was loved, cared for and pampered. He had fun with the other dogs and came home a very happy and tired boy. We’ve definitely found our new pet sitter. Thank you, Beth and Greg, for taking such great care of Linus 💕”
“Jodie was awesome in taking care of our two labs. We moved to Colorado last year and was looking for someone to care for our labs. One of our pups is older, nervous, and has never been watched by someone other than family. Both of our pups did great! I highly recommend Jodie.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my pup. She went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable. Pictures were sent to reassure me he was doing great. Will definitely hire her again!”
“Always feel good about leaving our pup, Griffin, with Megan, Gus & the boys. I love that she sends me pictures while we are away. He always looks like he is having fun! Meagan is also very flexible and when we need to add doggy daycare or pick him up late, she is more than accommodating!! It’s a real blessing to have her watch our dog!!🥰💕👍”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Daisey. She sent pictures, answered my questions, and overall I believe my Daisey felt relaxed and was taken good care of, which is what matters. I have no complaints or issues.”
“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Maria was amazing! She came through for us at the very last minute and literally saved our vacation. She treated our sweet senior dog like family and that’s all I could ask for ! So grateful for her !”
“Kara takes such great care of my dogs and they felt comfortable with her right away. Thank you for all of the updates and pictures, playing endless fetch with them and for giving them so much love. You are amazing!”
About: I’ve spent the past several years working hands-on as a veterinary assistant and dog trainer, and I truly love what I do. In the clinic, I’ve helped care for pets of all ages and temperaments, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for during what can sometimes be stressful visits. As a trainer, I focus on building trust and clear communication between dogs and their owners, using patience and positive reinforcement to create lasting results. Whether I’m assisting in medical care or helping shape better behavior, my goal is always the same—happy, healthy pets and confident, informed owners who feel supported every step of the way. I’m currently working part time and home with my children 4 days a week and when I’m at my part time job I’m only there till 12pm. So I will have lots of time to spoil your fur babies with all the love and attention! I have worked in the veterinary field for over 7 years and currently working as a dog trainer part time your pets will always be properly taken care of and looked after with lots of play time and walks! If boarded in my home if I am not with them I would have them in a crate for rest times if not crate trained we can figure something out always open to help your pets feel the comfort of home away from home!
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages since I was 18 years old. I had an elder dog that I had to put down recently and I love them so much! Happy to help with any medications or injections that are needed. Just would need a refresher in the injections. If you have any questions or would like to know more about me and my family please don't hesitate to ask. I am available all day most days. I am home 24/7. Outside of just running errands. I have 1 dog and 1 cat that I already take care of daily. So adding on a couple more doesn't hurt. Your pets have free range of the house as long as they are well mannered. My backyard is fenced with a 6ft privacy fence. My cat and dog are both on vectra for flea treatment. They are welcome anywhere in my house.
