Highly-rated overnight sitters - Johnston
“Rafael was incredible with our 14 year old beagle. We are very particular on who we leave our dog with and we felt great about leaving her with Rafael. His home is clean and safe. Such a nice and caring guy. He made the cutest report card for our dog. Sammy will definitely be visiting again when we go away.”
“Karen was amazing. Our two dogs had a great time at her house and Karen made them feel at home and put our minds at ease with many updates and pictures! Definitely recommend Karen 10/10!!”
“Qulynda was great! She took such great care of our dog while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend using Qulynda if you’re looking for someone to care for your furry one!”
“Omg, what a great host and sitter. Carolina was so responsive, and communicated everyday about my little one. Provided updates, pictures and videos and even had a safety “if lost” collar for him. Never saw that before and I love the idea! Will book every time I’m in town and need care. Had zero worries. Another great perk is she has a yard so if your pup likes the outdoors, they are safe and can get some sun. Thank you so much!”
“Anely was wonderful! She was great with communication and kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay, including sending lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Elba was so sweet and amazing with our dog Tucker! She has an adorable backyard but still also took him on walks throughout the weekend. She sent constant updates and was very responsive. Would definitely use her again!”
“Karen is very sweet and caring. She loves pups and treats them as their own. Our dog stayed with her while we were on vacation for a week and we were not worried at all. Her dog is gentile and very playful which our dog loved. They played together a lot and it was sad to take her away from him when we got home. We will definitely be rebooking!”
About: Hello my name is Mary-Ann, I live in a single family home with a fully fenced in yard in Cherry Hill Estates in Johnston, RI. I don't leave dogs outside unattended.

I also have a dog door that leads out into a fully enclosed Dog Pen to access anytime for the potty.

“Matthew once again took very excellent care of Bailey while I was away for the weekend. He was good with giving medications and sent me frequent updates and pictures. Most importantly, he loves having Bailey over and Bailey loves spending time there! I wouldn’t leave him with anyone else.”
“Jessica was AMAZING with Rondo! She is super flexible with scheduling, pick up and drop off which we are so thankful for. It was our first time in a long time boarding our pup, but Jessica put us at ease when we met her and Abu at the meet and greet. They are both so sweet!!

Gary is in contact daily letting us know that Harry is enjoying himself & being care for. Harry loves going to stay with Gary, and my wife and I can always rest assured that our boy is in caring, experienced hands. We definitely recommend Gary if you're looking for responsible, loving care for your pet.”
“Leanne was so good with my 3-legged frenchie for 2 weeks! I felt so comfortable during our vacation because she sent loads of updates and photos. They also helped our daughter because she missed her “brother” so much. Because Leanne sometimes looks after other dogs during the day, my little doggo had a friend to play with for a lot of the vacation which made us feel a whole heck of a lot better knowing he was living his best life too.”
“Lloyd always loves his stays with Nick. He comes back super tired from playing with Ripley and Mose and whoever else might be staying. Nick is always great about drop off and pick up and sends tons of pictures.”

I felt so relaxed and at ease knowing that my pet was in good hands with Zachary!!! I would highly recommend to any pet owner to care for your pets with Zachary!!! 5 stars all day.....Ken”
“What a fantastic pet sitter! She sent updates and pics during our time away assuring us that Yoshi was doing great. She even gave us a goody bag when we picked Yoshi up. We will definitely be using Alyssa again!”
“Boa was a wonderful sitter who watched over my baby Sunny like he was her own. Boa has a lovely home and is very kind and attentive. Her response time was also fast and communication clear. I highly recommend Boa to be the home away from home for your furry loved ones.”

She also sent us lots of pictures and updates of her visits. I highly recommend her, she made us feel so comfortable being away.”
“Absolutely amazing! Kenneth was on time and took care of my fur babies. My senior dog loved his drop ins for sure and the three walks a day. He made sure they had plenty of water and food. Cleaned the litter box too. Even played with Oreo the cat and his favorite string toy. Would definitely recommend to my friends and request him again if needed.”

“Jonathan was a lifesaver when prior a pet sitter canceled last minute, and in a way I’m happy it turned out that way! You can tell from the minute you meet him he genuinely cares for your animals like they are his own and makes every effort to show it. He even crocheted a blanket for our kitty! My husband and I never had to worry a day while we were on our vacation because we knew our cats were in great hands. We cannot begin to thank you enough!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Johnston
“Elba is wonderful and Sonny loved spending time with her. He loved running around her yard and made friends quickly with her. She is very responsive and wonderful at communication, she is experienced and knowledgeable. I recommend her 100%!”
“Anely was responsive, communicative and just really great! Anely was able to meet all our needs (we weren't sure how Charlie would do with other dogs), and Charlie had a great time.”
“Qualynda was amazing with our puppy. She watched her for us on very short notice and went above and beyond to care for her and keep us informed. Our girl is pretty timid and was scared at first but warmed up quickly and had a great time. She especially loved running around the big backyard! We will definitely use Qualynda again!”
“Gary accepted a last minute day care booking and save the day! He was very communicative, we received many photos and Mica enjoyed her time with Amigo. We would definitely book again.”

“Debby was AWESOME! My puppy was in such good hands. She’s very loving, attentive, responsive, friendly, had a lot of experience with dogs, keeps you updated with pictures, and overall genuine. My puppy had such a fun time at her place! Will definitely be booking again :)”
About: I grew up with black lab mixes, having at least one dog in the house all the time. I helped to raise two of the family black lab puppies through 15 years and care for the next generation, a 2 year old black lab/border collie rescue pup, teaching her to sit and lay down. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs over the past few years, learning patience from puppies, strength from sweet old ladies, and the careful nuance that comes with leash aggressive rescues. I now have an adopted a rescue greyhound in the family. She loves new friends but is also perfectly happy cat napping wherever her bed lands. Happy to host or walk, with or without her company. I’m full time at home and so I am free to do breaks and provide limited entertainment between meetings, which are never more than 1.5h. This is the schedule I provide my own pup and would extend to others. I treat them as my own. I prefer to be over communicative with owners if any potential issues arise as well. Greyhounds react particularly poorly to negative feedback and punishment, so patience and focus on pawsitivity (particularly treats) is a standard with me.
“Jessica is a GEM!!!! I was nervous about finding someone to take care of my pup who can be nervous in new situations/people and had some health stuff going on, but Jessica did everything to make her feel comfortable and cared for, and now my girl LOVES hanging out with Jessica and Abu!! Jessica also did everything to make ME, nervous dog mom, comfortable by sending lots of sweet videos and pictures of my pup having a grand ol' time. Jessica is the best!”
“Briana is THE BEST!! I’m so sad that I’m moving and Bogey won’t be there 4 days a week anymore but I’ve been so grateful for her and her pack. Bogey has grown and learned so much there, and Briana is 100% a professional & expert at what she does. She puts her whole heart into this and it shows. We love Briana’s daycare!! ◡̈ -Haley & Bogey”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident in creating a calm, loving environment that fits their needs. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have plenty of attention throughout the day—and with a beautiful park right next door, daily walks and outdoor time are part of our regular routine. I genuinely treat every pet like my own, giving them the care, affection, and respect they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I start the day with morning walks (the park next door is perfect for that), and I build in time for play, feeding, potty breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Evenings usually include a final walk and some wind-down time. Whether it’s a short visit or overnight care, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care woven into my day like they’re part of the family. In my home, I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly space where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible—walks, feeding times, play, and rest—to help them settle in easily. I live next to a park, so daily walks and outdoor time are a big part of our day. Pets have full access to cozy spaces, and I’m always nearby since I work from home.
“Our sweet pup had so much fun with Marie and her husband for the days we booked. So much more joy and excitement we haven't seen in her in the mornings getting ready to go for the day to her new friend's house and more still when she was ready to come home. Will only trust this couple with our baby.”
“Sonia is fantastic! Her regular check-Ins and photo updates are so appreciated. Wonderful, big fenced in yard for pups to play! Her dog Lola is terrific too. Both days we came home with a very tired, happy pup! Definitely recommend!”
“We’ve had a great experience with Trish. Gizmo is still new to us and can be sensitive with transitions, and she has been incredibly patient, calm, and accommodating from the start. He settles while he’s there (even if he hasn’t slept yet), and it’s clear he feels safe and well cared for. She’s kind, attentive, and truly understands dogs who need a little extra gentleness. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust and feel comfortable leaving him with. Highly recommend!”
“Sam is very kind and flexible! My dog, Samira, is always so excited to see him. I’m grateful to have someone so kind and trusting to take care of my baby girl when I am busy. Highly recommend!”
“Rich was super flexible about our drop off and pick up times, my husband works unpredictable hours so this was a HUGE relief! We got plenty of pictures and communication on how our little guy was doing throughout the day. It was great knowing he was in good hands and with other dog friends!”
“I’m very grateful to Hanna & Roy.✨ Besides being such lovely people, I truly appreciate them for taking care of my puppy🐶 From the very first moment, they showed so much love and dedication. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Haru’s well-being: they gave him affection, were attentive to him at all times, and played with him a lot. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good.”
“As always Leanne and Michael do an amazing job with Teddy. We have nothing to worry about when we leave him with them. She takes care of him like she does her own Bailey!”
“Raquel is one of the best dog sitters I have ever used on this app! She was very accommodating when it came to my dog. She even gave me updates throughout the day so I could see how my dog was doing.”
About: Hi! I'm Lynn, and caring for dogs has been one of the greatest joys of my life for more than 30 years. I've had the privilege of raising and caring for four incredible dogs, each of whom I lovingly called my "kids." They weren't just pets—they were cherished members of our family. Through every stage of life, from playful puppies to their senior years, I was there to provide them with the love, patience, and care they deserved. One of my beloved dogs, Gigi, developed diabetes later in life, which required daily insulin injections and eventually led to blindness. Caring for her taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and providing extra comfort to dogs with medical needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, especially when they require medication or specialized care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing in the yard, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I carefully follow every instruction you provide, including feeding schedules, medication administration, dietary needs, exercise routines, and any special preferences that help your pet feel at home. My home features a secure, fenced-in yard with both grassy and paved areas, giving dogs plenty of safe space to explore, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents. You'll receive regular photo and video updates, along with messages letting you know how your furry family member is doing, so you can relax knowing they're in caring hands. My goal is simple: to love and care for your dog the same way I cared for my own—with patience, kindness, compassion, and lots of hugs, kisses, belly rubs, and affection. When your pet is with me, they'll be treated like family. I currently have flexible availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, which allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship to the pets in my care. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, outdoor time in the yard, leisurely walks, lots of cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I'm able to tailor my schedule around their individual routine and needs. I'm also available to provide regular potty breaks, meals, medication, and other care throughout the day as needed. I believe consistency and open communication are important, so I'm always happy to discuss your pet's normal routine, preferences, and any special requirements ahead of their stay. My goal is to keep their routine as familiar as possible and make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and well cared for while they're with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I'm committed to following the care instructions you provide so they feel as comfortable as possible while they're with me. My home offers a secure, fenced-in yard with both grassy and paved areas where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Inside, they'll have a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where they'll be treated like part of the family. I'm happy to accommodate your preferences when it comes to your pet's routine. If your dog is crate-trained or you're more comfortable having them in a crate or exercise pen during certain times, I'm more than happy to follow that routine. Likewise, if your pet is used to having free roam of the home, I'm happy to discuss that as well. My goal is to maintain the routine they're familiar with to help reduce stress and make them feel at home. I'll also keep you connected with regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing and enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I know how much our pets mean to us because I've always considered mine to be family, and I'll care for yours with the same love, patience, and respect I'd want for my own.

About: Hi! My names Brianna and I’m your pets new best friend! I am a 25 year old vegan that was raised by a mom that worked in an animal sanctuary out on the West Coast. When we moved here to Rhode Island, my mom continued to be a vet tech and brought her love of animals home while we fostered all kinds! My love for animals alongside learning to care for them is not only in my blood, but began at a very young age. I have 10 pets of my own at home! Cats, reptiles, and spiders. While my cats are too attention demanding to have a dog of my own at the moment, I LOVE being around dogs whenever possible, there’s no dog too big or too small for me! This why I decided to join Rover! I’m also experienced in working with older, nervous, and young animals. I’m so excited to get to know your pet(s). Please feel free to inquire about daily/weekly/bi-weekly visits etc. getting to know your animals on a more personal level will make everything smoother for everyone involved and I’d love to be a long term friend. I work from home in social media & marketing and create my own schedule, so I am available for same day visits and can work from wherever! I’m basically always on call for those last minute drop ins. I also love being outdoors and set aside time to go for walks every day, so taking a dog along with me would make what I already do even better. I have experience with ALL types of animals so there is no request that will be new to me. My own home has reptiles, cats, arachnids, and I’ve even fostered dogs’ Have something specific your pet wants? I’m all ears! There’s nothing to big, small, or “weird” for me.
“Marie and her husband were wonderful! Great communication throughout. My dog is 84 pounds and young so he does pull on walks at the beginning. They handled him amazingly. Got him some exercise when I cant right now. Even recharged his night light. I would absolutely book Marie again”
About: Hi my name is Neriah and I'm a second year college student at CCRI. I've had dogs ever since I was 6. I currently have one dog named Apollo. I also have 3 cats. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have pet sat for a family friend who has three dogs. During that time, I was responsible for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure they felt comfortable and safe while their owner was away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make it a priority to follow owners' instructions carefully. I am dependable, patient, and committed to providing pets with the attention, care, and affection they deserve. Whether your pet enjoys active playtime or simply needs companionship, I will treat them as if they were my own. Experience Includes: Daily feeding and fresh water Walks and exercise Potty breaks Playtime and companionship Caring for multiple pets at once Following specific schedules and routines Monitoring pets for safety and well-being Providing updates to owners I currently work part-time Saturday through Monday, which gives me plenty of availability during the week to care for your pets. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day on weekdays. On workdays, I can stop by before my shift in the morning and again after work in the evening to make sure your pets are well cared for and comfortable. I am committed to following your pet's routine and providing reliable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the care instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special requirements. I take the time to learn each pet's personality and needs so they can feel comfortable and secure while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and appropriate exercise and playtime. I also keep doors and gates secure and monitor pets closely during walks and outdoor time. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to providing updates and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have been taking care of my own pets and animals my whole life, but recently expanded into watching and doing over night care, dog walking, and pet care for neighbors, family and friends. I’m currently going to Rhode Island College and pursuing my bachelors in Secondary Education. I also work part-time at a local hotel 3-11pm. This means I’m prettt flexible with when I can drop in to do pet-sitting and many of my classes have hour gaps in between so I can fit in pet visits! For my dogs at home, I ensure routine feedings are being followed to their timed feeding, I also focus on walking my own dogs 2-4 times a day, depending on which dog! In my own home I have 3 dogs, and 2 cats. For cats I also focus on ensuring that cats are following their feeding schedule, also ensuring that they are being played with, and enrichment is being provided.
About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.
“Heath was great with Jasper! Jasper warmed up very quickly and clearly enjoyed his walk. I received lots of pictures and a detailed description of the walk. We will definitely use Heath in the future!”
“Rich is incredible super helpful whenever we go away and also helps me out in a pinch from time to time which has been awesome. His wide array of knowledge with different dogs is super helpful especially with our huge baby Goomba. 70 pounds of pitbull.”
“We had never gone on vacation without our 6 year old dogs before. When we planned a trip to Barcelona, this was my one hesitation. Garrett (Xinwei) removed all my apprehension. We met with him before leaving and his kind nature and caring questions gave me the confidence and security I needed to be able to go abroad without worrying about something happening to my babygirls. His every photo captured how happy my dogs were in Garrett’s company, and his daily text updates assured me that they had everything they needed. We will 100% be rebooking with Garrett. :)”
“Kenneth was an amazing dog walker for our dog! He was patient and kind to my sometimes timid dog. He was very flexible with our schedule and needs. Our dog Bear always got excited when Kenneth came for his daily walks! I would highly recommend Kenneth for any pet services.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5. I currently have two dogs one 8 and one 7 at my parents home where I currently live. My brother and sister in law also have two dogs 2 and 1 years old. When my parents and them travel, I am in charge of the 4 of them at my house and we are all on a routine where everything is under control and still having fun. When needed, I do go to my brothers to take them for a walk and play with them to break up their day of being in the house. I am currently part time worker, so I have more free time during the week and figured I could use my time to help out dog lovers like yourself! For dog walking, I will follow your instructions carefully to make sure your pet and yourself are satisfied with my job. I will be safe but fun at the same time making sure your pets are cared for properly.
“Chantelle is wonderful with Bodhi. She's very attentive and playful, shows up on time, and even took a last minute appointment. We will continue with her services, as we feel comfortable with the way she nurtures our puppy!:)”
“Natasha was so helpful for a last minute walking when my work schedule changed. She was super clear and communicative about her schedule and my dog seemed to love her. Will definitely use again!”
About: I love pets. In my experience, pets our part of family and I will treat them as such. I have care for pets for over 30 years and am able to handle 5-8 dogs. I do pet care full-time. I am always home watching the dogs and cats, making sure they are safe. Pets will never be home alone and we follow strict food or medicine schedules if necessary. Pets are always being watched. They will never be left home alone when boarding. We have a fully gated yard that is impossible for dogs to escape.
About: I am a lifelong dog parent with two wonderful rescues. I am first aid and CPR certified, can administer medication and have been certified for small animal (cats and dogs) massage and canine behavior. Exercise and stimulation are important to ensure dogs do not become bored and destructive or depressed. No two dogs are the same. One of my dogs loves to run while the other loves to swim! I have experience with my own and working with other reactive animals so you can trust me with your pets, whatever their personality may be. What one enjoys, another may not so I need to understand how your dog interacts with humans and other animals and how they play. I look forward to caring for your dog! My work schedule is dynamic and we can discuss your needs and how they fit with my life at the time you want to schedule. I have a fully fenced yard if you choose to have your pet stay with me. If you prefer to have your pet stay at home where they are more comfortable, I would want to understand how well they recall or how they stay safe in your home.
About: Happy to take your pup on short walks for potty breaks, long hikes to release energy, and anything in between! I can bring my own poop bags and treats unless otherwise provided. Experience working with dogs of all ages and social levels. I am happy to wake up early, stay out late, and work part time during the week (some weeks off) from 8:30-4:10 but there will still be plenty of time to put your pets first! Ensuring your dog and you are comfortable is my first priority, I will take as much time as needed to adjust to your pups comforts.

“Rafael was incredible with our 14 year old beagle. We are very particular on who we leave our dog with and we felt great about leaving her with Rafael. His home is clean and safe. Such a nice and caring guy. He made the cutest report card for our dog. Sammy will definitely be visiting again when we go away.”
“Qulynda was great! She took such great care of our dog while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend using Qulynda if you’re looking for someone to care for your furry one!”

“Elba was so sweet and amazing with our dog Tucker! She has an adorable backyard but still also took him on walks throughout the weekend. She sent constant updates and was very responsive. Would definitely use her again!”
“Karen is very sweet and caring. She loves pups and treats them as their own. Our dog stayed with her while we were on vacation for a week and we were not worried at all. Her dog is gentile and very playful which our dog loved. They played together a lot and it was sad to take her away from him when we got home. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Gary is our go to guy when we need a sitter for our Bernese Harry. Harry stays with Gary & his pup Amigo over the holiday season while we are on vacation out of the country. Gary is in contact daily letting us know that Harry is enjoying himself & being care for. Harry loves going to stay with Gary, and my wife and I can always rest assured that our boy is in caring, experienced hands. We definitely recommend Gary if you're looking for responsible, loving care for your pet.”

“Cherylee took such great care of my young cat. She had awesome toys for him, kept him entertained and sent me photos and videos. I felt really good about leaving him in her care.

“Sierra is great! She was so communicative while we were out of town. She made sure our pup was well taken care of and was gentle in letting him acclimate to her house and other dogs. We’re so happy to have found her!”
“Jay and Faith made Sweet Pea’s first hang out so smooth! I’m an anxious human but they made me feel at ease, and I can tell Pea felt very comfortable as well as she spent her time lounging around and relaxing. Definitely a trusted pair dogs, including the special ones that require a little more structure. A++”
“Isabel was so amazing!! She kept me updated and sent pics every day, and I could tell my pup was having a great time being loved in a safe environment by an awesome family. I’ll absolutely be booking her services in the future when I have to travel because the peace of mind was incredible.”
“Angelina was a spectacular host! She sent constant updates, was flexible, had a great set-up, and most importantly gave a lot of love to my girls. 10/10 would highly recommend! Thank you Angelina! I would also note she was able to accomodate (in my circumstances) a last minute, 3 week stay for my pups which is unheard of. That speaks to her heart and caring nature!”
“Cierra was a great overnight host for my pup! It was his first time staying over and she made sure that he felt right at home. She sent updates and photos throughout the day to show that he was relaxed in the environment and having a good time. Would definitely have my dog stay with her again! :)”
“If i could give more than 5 stars i would. This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. Sonia was aware of this and did everything she could to put my mind at ease. She sent frequent updates and pictures of him living his best life. When I picked up my dog he was clearly happy and well taken care of. I will absolutely leave my dog with Sonia again.”
“Lisa was great. Our sweet but nervous pup settled in quickly and seemed to feel comfortable and happy. Lisa was very accommodating to our schedule and attentive to my dogs needs pertaining to her anxiety. We received frequent updates and photos. Her home provided plenty of soft comfy landing spots for your pup and a beautiful fenced yard that my dog loved. She was great with communication and we will definitely use Lisa again”
“Grace is great! She took the time to meet me and my dog ahead of time to make sure they were a good fit. She sent lots of photos and videos of Willie out on walks and at the park. It seems like he had a fun weekend thanks to Grace!”
