Highly-rated overnight sitters - Anvil Rock
“My first experience was amazing! Adrienne ensured my little one was safe and cared for. She walked me through the process with so much patience. A bonus…she is an amazing pet photographer!”
“Brenda and Hannah had their hands full with Princess. It was her first time away and so many aspects of her stay were firsts. Princess was treated like a queen and was so very taken care of even with the anxiety from the fireworks on the 4th. Brenda was sensitive to my anxious heart as well knowing that she had never been anywhere without me and I was a tearful fur parent when I left. I highly recommend Brenda to anyone that wants to have amazing care while being apart for both their fur baby as well as themselves. Princess will definitely be back 😊”
“Smores is as happy as ever with Jill! She gets so much love from Jill and her family and comes home with a smile every time! Jill has been incredibly helpful with our girl as we have helped with a family health issue- we are so grateful! Lots of photos and walks!!”
“Charlie was very well cared for. We really appreciated Mara - she was responsive and kind. She also took care of a skin issue, kept Charlie in a cone and gave him medicine without issue!”
“Thanks for watching Finn for us again! One of the few sitters that we feel comfortable leaving Finn with. We enjoy the updates and pictures throughout his stay. We can always tell if Finn was treated well and had fun when we board him - and he came back super happy and excited today when we picked him up!”
“Evelyn was great with our girls! She gave them a cozy, comforting home while we were away, and they loved having a big fenced yard to play in. We could tell they were super happy and well taken care of. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly loves dogs!”
“Carol and Lewis are wonderful dog sitters! I am so grateful for their great care of my Louie. I can tell Louie felt relaxed and loved by Carol and Lewis. I highly recommend them, wish I could give them 10 stars!!”
“They took care of my pup very well while we were out of town for a few days. They have such a cozy home that I know my furry friend absolutely loved! They took my dog on several walks and gave her such love and care. They were very pleasant people and I look forward to using them again soon”
“Our two bulldogs had a wonderful stay with Matthew and his family. We received excellent communication, daily photos and knew are pups were being treated with attentive care including lots of walks and play time. We would definitely use Matthew again for pet-sitting services. Thank you so much!”
“We could not have been happier about the love and care Jessica provided to our Labrador retriever, Abby! This was Abby's first overnight experience with Rover, and she ended up being a little nervous and unsure when we left her. Jessica went above and beyond to help her adjust, even preparing chicken and rice for her when her stomach was upset at the beginning of the visit. Jessica provided regular updates and photos so we could know how Abby was doing, and was incredibly communicative the entire time we were gone. We'll be reaching out to Jessica again the next time we are in need of a loving place for Abby to stay!”
“April and Chris were amazing with Nala! We loved the constant communication while we were on vacation and knew that she was in good hands! Her dogs were amazing with Nala and she loved playing with them. We will definitely use them again!”
“Ximena & Travis are wonderful and took great care of my babies!! They have a lovely, clean home with a fenced in back yard, and two very sweet pups of their own. They provided pics to keep us updated and were easy and flexible with pick up and drop off times. I’m so glad I found a reliable and loving family to keep good care of our pups while we’re gone. Thanks Ximena and Travis!!!!”
“Kelly was great! She sent me lots of pictures and truly seemed to care about my dogs! She even gave them each a chew toy for them to play with! We would love to take them to Kelly’s again! Thank you!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alvin’s and would absolutely book with her again! She took such great care of Cayde and kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious from the photos that Cayde was having a great time playing and getting lots of attention. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating with our travel schedule, which we really appreciated since our timeline changed a few times. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and she genuinely treated Cayde like one of her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“Our dog Gigi had a great time with Karlee and her kids. She was responsive to our texts and provided daily updates, which gave us peace of mind. We appreciated her care and attention! Thank you Karlee for taking good care of our Gigi♥️”
“First time ever using Chrissy for my 5 month pup she was wonderful sending pictures and updates on how my dog was doing . I loved that she was treated like a family pet allowed to not be crate all day , she was able to jump on couch and feel like home , play outside and join the other dogs for playtime . I highly recommend crissy care 5 stars ⭐️”
“I highly recommend Susanne as a dog sitter and will definitely book her again! We have used many different River sitters and Susanne ranks amongst my very favorites. My pup instantly felt at home in her house. Soon after leaving him with her, I received a picture of him curled up in her lap. I could tell my baby was having a good time on his vacation with Susanne while we were all away on our vacations. We got daily updates with pictures. My pup was treated to lots of walks, lots of playtime, and lots of snuggles. He looked so happy, it made my vacation much more enjoyable knowing our pup was happy too.”

Cat caregivers near you - Anvil Rock
About: I also have experience caring for cats and understand that they each have their own personalities and routines. I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving them space when they need it. I’ve cared for cats in friends’ homes and always make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well looked after while their owners are away.
“Brenda took good care of big boy while we were out of town for a wedding. He had fun with playtime and felt very comfortable with her. I didn’t have to worry about our dog, Brenda didn’t miss a visit and was always on time.”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable, detail-oriented cat lover who genuinely enjoys creating a calm and comfortable environment for pets while their owners are away. I currently have three cats - all with very different personalities. One very anxious and shy (especially with sitters) - but this is the reason I know how taxing pet boarding can be on cats. One with special dietary needs. And another who is very outgoing and playful - one-on-one attention and playtime with her is so important to her well-being. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each cat's personality and making sure their needs are met (as well as yours as a cat owner!) I know every cat has a different personality and comfort level, whether they’re playful and social or shy and independent. I’m happy to work at their pace and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and relaxed in their own home and routine. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, medication reminders, mail collection, plant care, and overnight house sitting if needed. I also know how important communication is when someone is caring for your pet, so I always aim to provide thoughtful updates and photos for peace of mind. Outside of pet sitting, I come from a background in customer service and public relations, which has made me very organized, communicative, and attentive to details. I’m currently looking to build long-term relationships with local clients and would love to help make travel or busy schedules less stressful for both you and your cats!
About: I’ve taken care of my family and friends pets for years, I purely enjoy being around animals and just offering a helping hand to you! I currently work at a family owned business with flexible hours and I do school online so with a couple days notice I will be easy to get in touch with and fit your needs in my schedule. Currently I live with my parents and we have 3 family dogs, this is why I cannot board your pets at my house but If I were to stay in your home I would treat it with respect and keep it clean and friendly.
“Our German shepherd (Zeus) is a very anxious, does not like other dogs, does not take treats from people either, some may say aggressive but really, he’s just scared.we needed to find a person that could handle him, in other words know how to take the lead, show him “it’s okay” . We were amazed at how quickly she created a bond with him! Jack has the talent/skill and knowledge for taking care of big anxious dogs and sassy ones too. Recommend 10 out of 10. Now we can take vacations!!”
About: I have always been around dogs and cats from the moment I was born so I’ve learned how to take care of them with years of experience. I’m currently working full-time but I do get off early most times during the week. The least I work a day is four hours and the most I work is eight hours. I am usually at work longer on the weekend. I love playing with animals so if you have toys that they like I will use those. I will also play outside with them. If your pet is not much of a player then that is fine as well. I will take them on walks regularly or as much as you advise me too.
“Thank you o much, Melanie is the best ever. She not only took care of my baby but she stay with him a little longer then she had to, to make sure he was ok when she realized he was a little upset and anxious. I will be call Melanie again the next time I’m out of town.”
“Jennifer is the ultimate dog whisper. She is great with all of our pets, she is dependable, timely, and is a good communicator. I can rest assured that my babies are in good hands.”
About: I love animals! I have worked with dogs for many years at dog shelters and watching my neighbors dogs when I was younger! I am a reliable, trustworthy, and a dog mom myself! My goal is to make your fur baby feel at home when away from home and provide the best care when you are away so you can be worry free, your fur baby will be in good hands with me! I work full time but have flexibility and off Fridays and can accommodate weekend travelers when you can’t travel with the furry babies! I am a very outdoors type of person and will take your dog with me on long walks to get energy out or we can cuddle on the couch if they prefer that too! My home is there home and they are allowed in all furniture🐶 We live in a house with a fenced in yard and I have a pet camera so if your pet is left alone for an hour or two they will be monitored through the camera! My dog will always be separate from yours when no one is home to ensure safety! I will always feed dogs separate as well!
About: I have had animals in my life since I was a little girl. I am self employed and work from home, which blesses me with the freedom and flexibility to give both time and attention to your beloved. Between my husband and I there is almost always someone home to love and care for your furbabies. We know that your furbaby is more than a pet; that they are family. Know they will be well cared for and loved just like they are our very own. I've owned several animals from dogs, cats, chickens, pythons, gators, fish, birds...etc When I say I love animals, I love all animals. I've cared for and owned many dog breeds since I was a child from Mutts, Beagles, Labs, and a Chihuahua (who was trained like a lab). I've watched, and cared for other people's furry family members many times as well. I have also cared for special need pups such as high anxiety, trauma, stressed shelter pups, gave medication, and watched over elderly dogs. It's NO challenge to do what needs to be done to make sure ALL your loved ones great, small, and of different backgrounds, and personalities feel safe, secure, and loved. Since our beloved little dog passed we have chosen to not own any more but have plenty of love and attention to give to yours! We don't ever watch pups from different families unless owners tell us it's ok otherwise. So unless you say it's ok, rest assured that your pups will be the only one's in our care. Thank you for entrusting us with your beloved family member! We are both excited and honored to be able to give your sweet one's a mini vacation of their own while you're away. My husband and I are self employed and spend most of our time at home. While you're loved one is in our care, they will be our main focus and have all of our attention. We have a ton of space to be able to take great walks. Unfortunately it's not fenced so your pup will need to be leashed unless trained to not need one and personally told to not use one. We do our best to acclimate ourselves to each furbaby's personality. Some are super active so we make sure they get tons of playtime. If they are snugglers, they get lots of snuggles. If they like to just relax, then that's what we'll do. We just want any that are in our care to feel right at home.
About: Hello! My name is Francie. I have always had a profound love for animals. I have also always loved lending a helping hand. I have provided pet care to small, medium, and large dogs, as well as multiple cat breeds. I am reliable, compassionate, and timely. I offer boarding, walking, and even just helping you by checking in on your furry friend. If you need any of these services, I’m your girl! Please contact me if interested :)
About: I have raised two puppies and have been a pet owner all my life! I live right next to a dog park and a lake and love to go on walks! I’m a recent graduate so don’t have any classes and can devote all time to loving and caring for your pet! My daily or weekly routine can be adjusted to fit the needed schedule of a given pet! I am a student with online only classes. I pay attention to details, am loving, nurturing, and flexible to cater to the needs of each pet. I have a low traffic living space making it easy for animals to keep low levels of stress and high levels of safety.
“Brittany was the perfect sitter for Tanner! She was very patient and loving with him, and communicated with us well! Each visit was followed up by a thorough and honest summary so we didn't have to worry about how Tanner was doing at all while we were gone. She's reliable and went above and beyond my expectations. We will definitely be booking her again in the future. Thank you Brittany!!”
About: Apart from caring for my own family's dogs over the years, I helped with my friend's parents dog sitting service in high school. I volunteered with a cat rescue in Greenville, SC for 3 years before moving back to my hometown. My mom calls me her "resident vet", and calls on me for baths, nail trimmings, and care any time her dog has an upset stomach or injury. I admittedly will talk to your pet like they are a human child, and will very well come up with a song about them during their care. I am trustworthy, dependable, (goofy) and committed to giving your pet the best care possible. I look forward to helping make sure your pet is well cared for while you are away! I currently work from home Monday-Friday 11:30am-8pm, and would only be available to provide overnight pet sitting services if I have WiFi and a space to work available in your home! I will not be caring for pets in my home, but I will be respectful and tidy in your home. Each walk and visit will come with a paper log of when your pet ate, how our walk(s) went, and any notable concerns or praise!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Anvil Rock
About: I've had dogs my entire life and started dog sitting at a young age. I currently have 2 dogs and would gladly welcome your pet into the mix. I feel that dogs truly are our best friends so you can rest assured they will be well taken care of when they're with me. I've watched puppies, seniors and I've even watched a dog that just got out of surgery. I freelance as a photographer and I spend part of my day editing which means plenty of time with your dog! I will make sure your pet gets lots of attention and play time. I walk the dogs daily and have a TON of toys. I have 2 dogs that can play with and keep your dog company. I have crates if needed as well. Dogs will be leashed in my yard at all times but I have parks near by to make sure they get exercise.
About: I currently have 4 husky pups that are very well socialized and would love more friends to play with. I also work with rescue groups to help pups in need. I have never met a pup I didn’t love! I currently work from home. Your pet will hardly be in a create and will be treated just like one of mine. Many potty breaks throughout the day. I often get on the floor and play so they know I am part of the pack. Toys? Well let’s just say there is not a shortage of toys in the house. Every room we visit has a “toy box”. Treats? No shortage of those here either but, I like to make them earn them - like enforcing commands they already know and rewarding them for going potty. I have almost a half acre with a fully fenced in back yard. Your pet will go out multiple times a day. I also foster and rescue pups so I am very good with socializing new pups with mine. They have previously lived with smaller pups such as a Jack Russell and Yorkie and they loved them to pieces. They also attend “daycare” and “overnight camp” in order to keep them socialized. I also feel like meet and greets are important to ensure your pup(s) interact well with mine. Safety is my number one concern. As I have stated mine are well socialized and I want nothing more to help others socialize theirs as well. Safety is a top priority in my home. I do accept puppies you well you just need to message me separately is we can discuss. My yard is fully fenced in and almost a 1/2 acre. I stop my work day to play fetch it for them for about an hour.
“I was very happy with the care Sam received. Brenda is very patient and knowledgeable. Sam was very shy and she worked with that. He loved running with her. Her daughter was amazing with him. He followed her everywhere. He also got along with Brenda’s pets. I have already booked her again.”
“Heather was great! I needed her super last minute and she was a great communicator, very flexible and accommodating. Thank you Heather I’m so grateful I found you! We’ll define back soon for Bailey to play. 😊”
“I have never left my 8-year old beagle, Cody with anyone other than immediate family, and I couldn't have been happier of the way Karlee and her dogs "kept a good eye" on Cody. Karlee got to experience how much of a cuddler Cody is, and it gave him a much-needed opportunity to interact with other dogs, especially dogs that are bigger. Karlee is a very "upbeat" and positive person, and a real dog lover, so I would recommend her to anyone in the Charlotte area.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over a decade. I have owned and been around multiple breeds including some less known ones such as African Bensenji, Newfoundland, and Shiba Inu. I currently own a Newfoundland and standard size Goldendoodle. We also have a turtle, snake, and cat. You can rest assured that in my home your pet will be well cared for. I work from home so I am home all day and that enables me to appropriately take care of your pet so be assured that they will receive the attention they need.

About: IF YOUR DOG IS NOT LEASH TRAINED AND CANNOT FOLLOW COMMANDS OR LISTEN, I WILL CANCEL THE BOOKING EARLY AND YOU WILL HAVE TO PICK UP YOUR DOG. So ask yourself that before you book, thank you. I love dogs and it is my job to make your dog feel like family by treating them with the same love and care that I treat my own dog at home. I’ve had a dog all my life.

I love to exercise so walking far or short is no problem.
“After going through a few people and having terrible experiences and can as say alexis brought my trust back in rover. She updated me about my puppy at every step to the point I felt like i was there with her. I absolutely loved that. My puppy seemed to really be enjoying her time with Alexis and her dogs. I will definitely be using her service again.”

“Melanie is fantastic! She was professional, yet personable. Her care for our puppy was impeccable. She was in constant contact with us and updated us throughout the day, so we felt very secure in leaving him with her. We will absolutely go to Melanie anytime!”
“Douglas was amazing. I struggled leaving Kona with a complete stranger but she did well and had fun playing with Luna. I also appreciated all the pictures and updates. Kona is my baby girl and he took very good care of her. I will use again.”

My House Is Ready To Receive Doggies With Plenty Of Toys And Places To Lounge. I Have A Fully Fenced Yard Where They Can Run And Play As They Need.

My office is the doggies bedroom as well where I have my dog’s crate (she only spends the night in her crate) and an extra crate for small/medium dog.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Anvil Rock
About: My experience comes from owning my own pets (goats,chickens,ducks,dogs,cats,bunnies,guinea pigs,hamsters) and petsitting (yes, even even horses, pigs, snakes and bugs). In previous years, I fostered for countless animal rescue groups and shelters, whether it was just volunteering or fostering puppies or senior dogs in need. I currently own a pitbull/lab rescue, Cali, who I trust with few people. I completely understand the anxiety when it comes to trusting someone new to watch over your pup. This is why I prioritize communication, forming relationships with both pets and parents, sending frequent updates and paying close attention to details/routines provided to me. After each visit, you can always expect to find water bowls to be clean and full, leashes hung up and everything just as you left it except this time with a happy and tired pup! Please reach out with as many questions as you'd like, I look forward to hearing from you! I have a dog of my own, so pet care is already built into my routine and something I look forward to everyday. I'm also available for last minute needs and do my best to be as flexible as possible as I understand plans can change :) How I care for your pet depends entirely on the instructions you give me, I strive to follow your directions as closely as possible to ensure you, your pet and myself all have a great experience that is as similar as can be to your routine with them. With that being said, each pet I care for is treated as my own and will have my full attention when I am with them.
“Brenda was amazing with our pups! She jogged with our younger one, which can be a challenge but she was clearly up to it! Our older girl, she tried to walk her but she's not usually up for leaving the driveway when her routine is disrupted ?. Brenda is a great communicator, very punctual and clearly loves her job. Will 100% use Brenda next time we need a hand.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I currently have an almost 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer, a German Shepherd, and a rescue pit bull, so I’m very comfortable handling active, strong, and high-energy dogs. In addition to my own dogs, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs and cats many times, including feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep our pets on their routine and give them attention, patience, and a safe environment. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I am available in the mornings before work, during my lunch break, and after work in the evenings, which allows me to provide consistent drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime. I also have more flexibility on weekends, which gives me the ability to take on longer visits or additional care if needed. I’m able to stay organized and reliable with my schedule, making sure each pet gets dependable attention and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, and any specific care preferences the owner provides. I make sure each pet gets attention, playtime, and comfort so they feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home clean and respected, making sure everything is left as I found it. I give regular updates so clients know how their pets are doing and can feel confident they are being well cared for.

As I have stated mine are well socialized and I want nothing more to help others socialize theirs as well. Safety is a top priority in my home. I do accept puppies you well you just need to message me separately is we can discuss. My yard is fully fenced in and almost a 1/2 acre. I stop my work day to play fetch it for them for about an hour.

About: My family owned dogs and cats all my life. Once I got old enough to take on responsibility, I started feeding, bathing, walking, and cleaning up after my pets.

I currently have 8 dogs of my own which are 7 American bullies and one Boston Terrier (Abel, Nyx, Hella, Cash, Holly, Buckshot, Zarah, and Maddie) a gecko named Leroy, and a baby quaker parrot, named Sully. I am very familiar and comfortable with all size of dogs as I have owned so many different breeds over the years. From Great danes to small dogs. I love spending time with my pets as well as getting to know and spend time with others. I understand the importance of doing what is asked by the owner of the pets! If you want someone that is a huge animal lover and who is reliable and trustworthy, look no further! I can't wait to hear from you and meet your fur baby !! I currently work full time, my days off vary and change a lot due to be being in management. I am normally available early in the day. If we have already pre booked something, and my work schedule changes, I will still make accommodations to make sure your baby is taken care of! While caring for your pet inside your home, I will do exactly what you ask of me and treat your fur baby and your property with respect. I will love and care for your baby as if they were my own and make sure the house is left in the same condition it was in before I arrived.
About: Hi, Im Andrew! I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life with my family and we love them all dearly, sometimes... too much lol. We currently have two Golden doodles, a Pekingese, and 3 cats so we understand the attention and care each pet individually needs. I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida, played baseball for 17 years both Varsity Highschool and Travel ball and in 2019 moved up here to North Carolina for my dads retirement and to be close to his side of the family. I recently worked at Persmart for about a year and took care of many exotic pets on the daily! Whatever your needs are, pets are a breeze for me and you are more than welcome to message me your requests and we will work something out. Thank you! I always prioritize pets necessities and desires and have a job that allows me to work remotely while I take care of your pets at the same time! I also own a cat myself who I love and adore lol. I would take your pet for a walk daily to ensure their built up energy is being used as well as give them special play time! However many times your animal takes to use the bathroom I will ensure happens and accommodate any preferences they have and are needed. I love to lay and cuddle with animals so if that’s something your pet loves I’m all for it!
About: I have owned/cared for cats for as long as I can remember. I am currently an owner of 3 cats and 1 dog and have tons of experience caring for cats/dogs of family and friends. I genuinely love spending time with animals and giving them the attention/affection they need. I have experience with exercising, feeding, giving medication, and administering first aid to pets. I am a stay-at-home husband (and soon to be father) so my schedule is extremely flexible and I have reliable transportation. I’m available weekends and weekdays including evenings. My own pup is high energy/high anxiety (but he absolutely loves other dogs!) so I can understand that every pet has individualized needs. I am happy to work with any owner on a case by case basis to determine what works best for their pet. I can do home visits or could potentially house pets at my residence. We have a large backyard sitting on about 8 acres of land. Dogs love it here!
About: Since age 4 I've had an animal in my home. I've brought home so many of our family pets over the years basically off of the streets. I cared for them faithfully and lovingly until they crossed that rainbow bridge. Animals are naturally drawn to me and I have several tips and tricks to get your fur baby comfortable and content by the end of our visit. Pet care is part of my everyday routine. Every morning I wake up between 5 and 6 every day and begin feeding and caring for my pets at home. I feed and water 2-3 times daily. I do walks and play time and of course cuddles and pets. I will treat them as if they were my own fur babies, with love and compassion.
About: I love animals! I have worked with dogs for many years at dog shelters and watching my neighbors dogs when I was younger! I am a reliable, trustworthy, and a dog mom myself!

My dog will always be separate from yours when no one is home to ensure safety! I will always feed dogs separate as well!

About: Hello there! Let me take the stress of having to find a sitter for your pets off of your shoulders! I love getting to meet new dogs and cats.

I know how to follow directions and make sure the needs of the pets are taken care of. Currently, I cannot board any pets. I can come to your home if needed to let your dog out, play with your cat and of course make sure your furry children have food to eat. I’d love to be your next go to pet sitter. Your pets will thank you. The only day I am not available is Tuesday since that is the day I’m working at the animal shelter. Other than that, my schedule is usually open. Currently I am not able to board any pets right now due to living in an apartment. I have 2 pets of my own already and cannot have anymore due to the apartment rules. For my own pets, I let my dog out at least 3 times a day and feed her twice a day. I also feed my cat twice a day and empty out his litter box when it’s full.

About: I have had animals in my life since I was a little girl. I am self employed and work from home, which blesses me with the freedom and flexibility to give both time and attention to your beloved. Between my husband and I there is almost always someone home to love and care for your furbabies. We know that your furbaby is more than a pet; that they are family. Know they will be well cared for and loved just like they are our very own. I've owned several animals from dogs, cats, chickens, pythons, gators, fish, birds...etc When I say I love animals, I love all animals. I've cared for and owned many dog breeds since I was a child from Mutts, Beagles, Labs, and a Chihuahua (who was trained like a lab). I've watched, and cared for other people's furry family members many times as well. I have also cared for special need pups such as high anxiety, trauma, stressed shelter pups, gave medication, and watched over elderly dogs. It's NO challenge to do what needs to be done to make sure ALL your loved ones great, small, and of different backgrounds, and personalities feel safe, secure, and loved. Since our beloved little dog passed we have chosen to not own any more but have plenty of love and attention to give to yours! We don't ever watch pups from different families unless owners tell us it's ok otherwise. So unless you say it's ok, rest assured that your pups will be the only one's in our care. Thank you for entrusting us with your beloved family member! We are both excited and honored to be able to give your sweet one's a mini vacation of their own while you're away. My husband and I are self employed and spend most of our time at home. While you're loved one is in our care, they will be our main focus and have all of our attention. We have a ton of space to be able to take great walks. Unfortunately it's not fenced so your pup will need to be leashed unless trained to not need one and personally told to not use one. We do our best to acclimate ourselves to each furbaby's personality. Some are super active so we make sure they get tons of playtime. If they are snugglers, they get lots of snuggles. If they like to just relax, then that's what we'll do. We just want any that are in our care to feel right at home.

“My first experience was amazing! Adrienne ensured my little one was safe and cared for. She walked me through the process with so much patience. A bonus…she is an amazing pet photographer!”
“Brenda and Hannah had their hands full with Princess. It was her first time away and so many aspects of her stay were firsts. Princess was treated like a queen and was so very taken care of even with the anxiety from the fireworks on the 4th. Brenda was sensitive to my anxious heart as well knowing that she had never been anywhere without me and I was a tearful fur parent when I left. I highly recommend Brenda to anyone that wants to have amazing care while being apart for both their fur baby as well as themselves. Princess will definitely be back 😊”
“Charlie was very well cared for. We really appreciated Mara - she was responsive and kind. She also took care of a skin issue, kept Charlie in a cone and gave him medicine without issue!”
“Thanks for watching Finn for us again! One of the few sitters that we feel comfortable leaving Finn with. We enjoy the updates and pictures throughout his stay. We can always tell if Finn was treated well and had fun when we board him - and he came back super happy and excited today when we picked him up!”

“They took care of my pup very well while we were out of town for a few days. They have such a cozy home that I know my furry friend absolutely loved! They took my dog on several walks and gave her such love and care. They were very pleasant people and I look forward to using them again soon”
“Heather is amazing! Our fur baby can be anxious with new people and overnight care but Heather made her as comfortable as possible and we are so grateful to have someone so responsible and loving for our baby’s care. We loved getting photo and video updates while we were away. Will only be booking with Heather moving forward!”
“Our two bulldogs had a wonderful stay with Matthew and his family. We received excellent communication, daily photos and knew are pups were being treated with attentive care including lots of walks and play time. We would definitely use Matthew again for pet-sitting services. Thank you so much!”
“We could not have been happier about the love and care Jessica provided to our Labrador retriever, Abby! This was Abby's first overnight experience with Rover, and she ended up being a little nervous and unsure when we left her. Jessica went above and beyond to help her adjust, even preparing chicken and rice for her when her stomach was upset at the beginning of the visit. Jessica provided regular updates and photos so we could know how Abby was doing, and was incredibly communicative the entire time we were gone. We'll be reaching out to Jessica again the next time we are in need of a loving place for Abby to stay!”
“April and Chris were amazing with Nala! We loved the constant communication while we were on vacation and knew that she was in good hands! Her dogs were amazing with Nala and she loved playing with them. We will definitely use them again!”
“Ximena & Travis are wonderful and took great care of my babies!! They have a lovely, clean home with a fenced in back yard, and two very sweet pups of their own. They provided pics to keep us updated and were easy and flexible with pick up and drop off times. I’m so glad I found a reliable and loving family to keep good care of our pups while we’re gone. Thanks Ximena and Travis!!!!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Alvin’s and would absolutely book with her again! She took such great care of Cayde and kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious from the photos that Cayde was having a great time playing and getting lots of attention. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating with our travel schedule, which we really appreciated since our timeline changed a few times. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and she genuinely treated Cayde like one of her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”

“Our dog Gigi had a great time with Karlee and her kids. She was responsive to our texts and provided daily updates, which gave us peace of mind. We appreciated her care and attention! Thank you Karlee for taking good care of our Gigi♥️”
“First time ever using Chrissy for my 5 month pup she was wonderful sending pictures and updates on how my dog was doing . I loved that she was treated like a family pet allowed to not be crate all day , she was able to jump on couch and feel like home , play outside and join the other dogs for playtime . I highly recommend crissy care 5 stars ⭐️”
“Jennifer was great! I loved her communication and seeing the pictures and updates of our dogs while we were away for the weekend. We could tell that they were having a blast and did not have anything to worry about. We will be sure to reach out to Jennifer again when we have to travel.”
