“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for more than 25 years. I specialize in senior care for dogs as well as young adults . My dogs are both rescues . I’m currently semi-retired and your pet is my priority. I am available holidays and weekend's. I have two small dogs, they are gentle and like other dogs. I have a fully fenced yard, and a doggie door leading to my backyard. I can crate your dog if that is what you prefer.
“Angela was fabulous, and someone I’m genuinely glad my family met! She took great care of S’mores & sent pictures and videos. When we picked up our dog, my daughter said that you could tell our S’mores was ready to see us but also sad to leave. Angela was kind to my children too. She went above and beyond. We would definitely ask her to keep S’mores again in the future.”
“Nicole did an amazing job with my big pup!! My dog Loki stayed with her for a week and it was great! She gave me updates everyday and my pup had a ton of fun!! Definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to car for their pup!”
“Ash was absolutely incredible. The constant updates on the site and immediate responses via text whenever I was checking in on Zoey. She even sent Zoey home with some homemade treats. I will definitely be using Ash a lot moving forward. Feels great to know you can be at ease when you're away and someone takes such great care of your pup.”
“Haley, Was really great with my boy Sherlock. I was very happy with her professionalism and attention to care for my Sherlock. As well as the updates easing my mind that he was in good hands. Thank you Haley”
About: I bring 12 years of hands-on experience with a local dog rescue, including fostering, training, and caring for dogs of many breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. We have fostered everything from young puppies to dogs over 100 pounds, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual needs and routine. I’m also comfortable administering medications and providing extra care when needed. My experience has taught me to pay close attention to a dog’s behavior, body language, comfort level, and individual personality. Because I work full-time from home and don’t travel for work, I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Most importantly, I understand that every dog is different. I take the time to learn what makes your dog comfortable, happy, and feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home and don’t travel for work. Your dog will have plenty of companionship, attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away How I Care for Pets Our personal dog passed away a few years ago, and while we aren’t ready to get another dog just yet, we truly miss having one around. He was spoiled and treated like another member of the family, and that is the same warmth and care I provide to every dog I look after. I offer in-home boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. Whether your dog stays with me or I care for them in their own home, I’ll follow their normal routine, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Jonathan and Shynie are amazing! 1st time Boarding with them and definitely it is not going to be the last. My boy Abel was happy when i got there to pick him up. It seems like he did enjoy his 4 days with them. I got pictures of him few time a day and he always seems to be happy and having fun. They also had me updated every day on everything about him. I can't appreciate them more.”
“Our two dogs stayed with Debbie while we were on our honeymoon and I think they were sad to leave Debbie’s house! She was wonderful with sending pictures and letting us know how our dogs were doing. They were well taken care of and Debbie will be our go-to sitter anytime we need one. I highly recommend her!”
“We are beyond thankful for Suzanne and her son, Jackson! They were so welcoming when we first arrived! They went above and beyond in caring for our old pup (so much so that he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up!) We will absolutely rebook in the future ❤️”
“Jennifer is an incredible dog sitter and she took great care of Mandy! She walked her and took her on car trips and kept her safe and calm during the July 4th fireworks! We cannot say enough good about her care and treatment of our dog! We will definitely use her the next time we travel if she is available.”
“Lindsey was excellent and you can tell her and her household truly have a love for animals. They were flexible and accommodating for us and super easy to communicate and coordinate with. We look forward to booking our next stay with Lindsey :)”
About: I have been taking care of pets for our entire lives. i have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes (as well as reptiles, fish, and plants!). i have been pet-sitting for colleagues and friends for a while now as well as caring for three cats at home. i have previously cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with special needs and medication schedules. I have a fairly flexible schedule at my day job, and will coordinate around your schedule to make sure I can meet every pet's needs. I would prefer to care for pets in your home, as they're likely to be more comfortable that way (and my cats will too). However, I can make exceptions in special cases. I do prefer to have an initial meet and greet with pets and people to make sure everyone's comfortable. For house-sitting, I goal is to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible, so I will schedule my workday to be there with them as often as possible.
“Brianna took such great care of Quincy. I didn’t have to worry about his well being while out of town. I received pictures and videos of Quincy that put me at ease. I’ve already booked another boarding with Brianna. That shows how much I trust her with my prized possession. Quincy is family.”
“I was worried about leaving my dogs for the first time with someone else for an entire week while we were on vacation... that is until the morning I met Kristen and then I immediately felt at ease. She sent pictures of my fur babies every day and was fast at responding. We were extremely satisfied with Kristen. I highly recommend her and definitely plan on asking her to watch them in the future.”
“There aren't enough stars for a rating! Fabienne was just fabulous in every way. I received many photos so I knew my 12 year old lab was in good hands. She wrapped him in a thunder shirt during a thunder storm, gave him lots of love, and even forgave him for getting into her garbage!”

“Cathy went above and beyond just taking care of the kitties, she also made sure the Christmas tree didn’t go dry and she watered my plants for me. She was absolutely great about sending pictures and a report. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again for any future needs. Thank you so much, I really appreciate everything you did!!”
“Great person who truly cares about your pets! Communication and flexibility are just a few of the things that she is great at while caring for our pet family. Thank you!”
About: I'm a cat-person at heart. They make my heart feel full. Even the grumpy ones. My cat, Marv had hypothyroidism and chronic kidney disease in his later years. I have plenty of experience administering his bi-daily medications as well as his measuring out his prescription food. Your cat(s) can expect the same love and care as if they were my own.
“Hannah was awesome with our cat Gracie. I would highly recommend her and would not hesitate to book her services again. It was nice to be on vacation and know that Gracie was being cared for. Thanks Hannah!”
“Professional, excellent communication skills and willingness to collaborate so the visits are a positive experience. Emily was amazing and got to know my group of cats. I will use her in the future.”
About: Growing up I wanted to bring home every stray I saw and now, at the age of 27, I’m blessed to have been able to open my doors to 4 stray kittens, bringing my total to a whopping 7 cats. I suppose that may qualify me for a “crazy cat lady” title. I have experience with cats of all ages and temperaments, including behavioral issues and special needs kitties. One of my own is blind but has a big enough attitude to make up for it. I love spending one on one time with cats to really learn their funny little personalities, as they can all be so drastically different, and then tailor their care specifically towards each of them.
About: working at a dog grooming salon, i've had hands-on experience with every breed imaginable, learning their unique temperaments, energy levels, and specific needs. this means I'm not just a sitter; I'm equipped to handle any dog, from tiny chihuahuas to giant great danes, with confidence, patience & gentleness 💞 i work 9-5 so weekends are best for me, im free all day sunday & mondays for drop in visits, walks, playtimes or baths 🧽 i pay attention to detail, our animals are family, i can assure you they will be watched like a hawk and handled with care & plenty of love
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or just have their space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll keep their routine consistent, provide plenty of love and attention, and send updates so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands!
“I can always count on Virginia when it comes to helping out and taking care of Nexus! The pictures and videos I received while I was away made my heart feel so much better. Nexus loves spending time with Virginia and I know she is in great hands! Definitely will rebook when needed!! 10/10!!”
“Nicole was wonderful! She responded at the last minute (great communication) and took great care of our boy Teddy! We will definitely use her again when we are back at Clemson! Thank you so much!”
About: Growing up we had 7 cats, 3 dogs, 2 fish and 2 dwarf frogs. I loved caring for all the animals and knew I would always have animals in my life. Since, I have raised several cats and dogs over the years. I comfortably cared for our one dog through her battle with bladder cancer. I also raised a German Shepherd to the age of 16. I have also cared for family members and friends animals during vacations or illness. Today, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats. We strongly believe that the right food, exercise and lots of love help keep them safe and healthy. We treat our animals like kids by talking to them, playing with them and letting them sleep and cuddle on the bed.

“Ash did a great job with our Schnauzer, Jack. She walked him regularly, made homemade treats for him and let him chill on her sofa. This was wonderful while we spent the day with great friends and was a great comfort to us, knowing that Jack was safe and happy. Highly recommend. Call Ash.”
“Sad Rover wouldn’t let me tip higher! We love Jennifer! We have used her for both over night boarding and daycare service. She has been great about sending pictures and updates. Our boys always come home tired for days! Can’t wait to use her again :)”
About: Well Anderson County I’m a nice guy with some time on his hands who lives in the perfect spot to suit almost any dogs needs. I can care for almost every activity level and have ample space on 7 acres, parks, or the many areas in and around Anderson County. I am also able to pick up and drop off for a small fee and have a truck so no dog too big. Overall, they will have a safe place to stay when you need. Whatever your needs I can usually accommodate. I currently work full-time but I have a flexible and lenient schedule. I am available most of the day for the dogs and have a near by dog park by Mills that if ok with the owner I can take them to, if not I have Mills park in my back yard for endless shaded walking. I have a fully fenced yard with 6 foot privacy fence. I do own a miniature and standard schnauzer that will keep your pet company. Yard is about 1/4 acre so they will have plenty of room to run around in.
“Lisa was absolutely amazing! Watson loved his time there. She has a large, fenced in backyard and Watson really enjoyed the ability to run around and get lots of exercise. Lisa played fetch with Watson and sent lots of pictures and videos of Watson playing. Lisa was attentive and provided me with thorough updates and feedback. She really loved on Watson and I could tell how much he loved being with her ?. He would run excitedly right up to her front door every morning and would be sad to leave in the eveninings. Thank you so much, Lisa!”
“Our dog Leo loved his short stay with Madison on Thanksgiving Day. Communication was great and she was wonderful with Leo. He had a great time and would definitely recommend Madison.”

Pets needs are top priority, food, water, potty, meds, outside time, etc. I will not go to the ends of the earth just to get Spot his pup cup if you know what I mean.
About: I love all things animals and I want to treat yours just as my own like family.. so please trust me to take care of your fury companion. I work from home, so I am available 24/7 for your furry friends to feel safe and welcome. My number one priority is making sure you get your pets back safely and to make sure they have the best time of their lives I work from home so I have all the time in the world to make your furry friends feel welcome and my pets always want new friends. I am CPR and First aid certified as I used to be a nurse. I live in a 2 bedroom house with plenty of downstairs room to run around. And I have a front yard to take them out in
About: My home is a dog-friendly, warm and inviting place where your special family member will be loved and cared for. I was a dog owner (lab rescues) for the last 12 years, but sadly my last guy recently crossed the rainbow bridge. I have a lot of love just waiting to be shared! I work from home so our time and availability is flexible! I love to take frequent walk and play breaks. And I am always up for some cuddle time! My yard is shady for dogs of all sizes. The neighborhood is pet friendly with lots of walking. I previously managed a pet sitting business within our Virginia neighborhood and can provide references.
About: I began working in professional dog boarding facilities at 16 years old, and animals have been a huge part of my life and career ever since. Over the years, I’ve worked in veterinary care, grooming, corporate doggy daycares, and professional dog training, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and needs. I have been professionally training dogs for the past 12 years and also trial and compete with my own personal dogs. I’ve worked with everyone from young, energetic puppies to seniors who require extra patience, medication, mobility assistance, or individualized care. Many of the clients I work with today have been trusting me with their dogs for 5+ years, which is something I’m incredibly proud of. Building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners is one of my favorite parts of what I do. My background allows me to recognize changes in behavior, health, and comfort and provide a level of care that goes beyond simply feeding and letting a dog outside. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities. Pet care is a big part of my daily life, not something I squeeze into my schedule. I work from home and am home full-time, so I’m able to give the dogs consistent attention, supervision, exercise, enrichment, and rest throughout the day. My schedule is built around their needs, with regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and individualized care. I keep my schedule intentionally flexible so each pet gets the attention and routine they need while they’re in my care. My property is completely fenced, offering ample space for your pup to frolic and play freely! Indoors, they'll receive the same love and care as if they were my own pet. Unless you specify otherwise, your dog is more than welcome to join me on the bed or sofa during our downtime. Because they're truly part of the family.
“My cat visited Raquel for daycare and had a wonderful experience! She got plenty of attention, and you can tell Raquel really cares for all animals. I was sent photos throughout the day of mealtime and playtime and got regular updates, and knew my girl was being well cared for! Communication was excellent and everything went smoothly. Would recommend!”
“Joanna & Sebastian were absolutely wonderful! They were very quick to respond to our last minute request and were super patient with our nervous dog. They sent us updates and photos so I felt very comfortable! I would definitely book with them again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My friends all call me to watch their precious pups when they go out of town. I love to spend time with all animals, playing with the dogs, petting the cats, feeding the reptiles, the list goes on. I have cared for animals in all walks of life, from babies, puppies to senior animals. I love taking them for a walk around the neighborhood, chilling and watching a movie together, throwing the ball in the backyard. I do work part time, however I get to make my own schedule. My schedule is very flexible for your animal needs. Pet care is a passion of mine. I can easily take your pet on walks, outside to use the potty, or even play some tug of war with them. I know some pets stick to a special diet for feeding and/or treats and I can stick to their routine or special needs.

“Maddie was able to help us out last minute and take our dog for a walk. She was on time and had excellent communication. She greeted Pepper and made Pepper feel comfortable. Our dog is a large dog and very strong and Maddie had no problem walking her. Pepper enjoyed her walk and was very tired afterwards! I would definitely contact Maddie again to walk our dog.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets ever since i was born! I currently have two cats and one dog that i love so deeply!

About: I have walked dogs and puppy sat in my childhood neighborhood as well as volunteered to walk dogs at APS of Durham. I also have a sweet, loving dog of my own who I’ve had and taken care of for over seven years. She has anxiety so I am very familiar with dogs who are shy or scared of humans. I am a student at Anderson University and am looking for a way to make some extra money and get a short break from studying by taking care of your wonderful dog(s)! I live in a dorm room on campus so am not allowed to have dogs over, but would love to come to your place and take care of your pet there!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life. At 13, I started a neighborhood dog-walking business for owners who were “too pooped to walk their dogs,” which quickly grew into in-home and overnight dog sitting. I got my first dog at age ten and trained her myself, and I’ve since attended multiple dog training classes because I genuinely enjoy working with dogs. Over the years, I’ve cared for labs, golden doodles, pit bulls, and more for families that I have worked with through high school and college. Now that I have my own home (next to a park) I’m excited to start again with plenty of space, structure, and love for every pup. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m an emergency nurse and work every Monday and Tuesday and every other weekend, which gives me most weekdays free and flexible for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. On my off days, I enjoy staying active with walking, running, and hiking, and I love including dogs in those activities for both exercise and enrichment. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives consistent attention, timely care, and plenty of love. Safety and trust are my top priorities. As an emergency nurse, I have strong medical training and stay calm and attentive in all situations, including emergencies. I closely follow pet parents’ instructions and routines in both my home and theirs, ensuring a low-stress, loving environment. I provide supervised play, secure walks, and plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Living next to a park gives dogs safe space to explore, exercise, and enjoy structured outdoor time while always being carefully monitored.
About: Growing up, my family always had at least two dogs at all times. Although I don’t have a dog of my own, I love taking care of and spending time with other people’s dogs. 🩷 I am a teacher by day (Aug-end of May) and dog sitter on the side! I love kids but dogs truly have my heart. The bigger, the better! I am a teacher, so I will be gone from 6:30am-3:30pm. I have watched dogs while I’ve been at school who are used to be alone for an extended amount of time but but I will walk them prior to leaving for work and then spend the evening with them once I get home. :) ***If your dog isn’t used to being alone while I would be at work, I do have someone who can check on your pet and also take them out midday while I’m at work! :) Although I do not have a fenced in yard, my neighborhood community has a fenced in dog park area to give your dog(s) the space and freedom to roam as needed. :)
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I am also the co-founder of a rescue and have experience with the care of the dogs in our rescue. I also have 4 dogs of my own. I am currently retired , so my schedule is flexible. I can spend time with your pet to play, take for a walk, or just hang out with. I’m also available to feed your pet if needed. I have experience with a variety of different dogs, and am able to handle large or small dogs. I love to bond with them to earn their trust.
About: I have experience with all sizes of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Great Pyrenees as well as both indoor and outdoor cats. I also have experience with different temperaments, such as fearful, hyper, or dominant animals. I am a stay-at-home mom with a newborn, so my schedule is very flexible and I would love the chance to play with your fur babies! I make sure your fur babies are comfortable and all their needs are met, as well as taking care when entering your home to ensure any escape attempts are unsuccessful!
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. As a pet owner myself, I’ve had multiple dogs and have provided pet sitting services for countless dogs and cats over the years. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and animals that require medication or extra attention. The most I’ve cared for at one time is two dogs and two cats, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets while ensuring each one receives the care and attention they deserve. I genuinely love animals and have the flexibility to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for your pets while you’re away. Over the next few months, I’ll be out of school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to accommodate your pet care needs, whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, keep a clean environment, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are always secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I have worked in rescues on and off for the last 10 years. I have also been a private pet sitter for the last 7! I am currently a stay at home mom but have great flexibility with both kids in school. I am also available for early morning and evening walks for those who may work night shift.

About: I love animals, especially dogs. I've taken care of dogs for friends and family for over 20 years. I am a fur mama to 2 yorkie's. One of them is a diabetic and requires daily shots. I can take care of any special needs that your pets require. I'm great with all dogs, they're my favorite kind of people.. I work full time Monday-Thursday 8-5. I'm available after 5 and then anything Fri-Sunday. I can run to your home to walk on my lunch if its in the Greenville or Simpsonville area. I will do what the owner needs me to do: walk on leash, stay in fence yard, crate in kennel. My two yorkies are trained. One walks on leash while other one stays by my side when outside.
About: Grew up with labs when I was younger, my roommate in college had a lab, and currently have a Morkie. I will be capable of handling any size dog. I love dogs, they are truly our best friends. Pretty open through the week and weekends since I work for myself, so most anytime works. Honestly anytime, I can get my schedule to work around it. Being active! Dogs love activity, to walk and play. I’ll take care of any dog. I like longer walks. They are peaceful and enjoyable, and I love the exercise. No distance is too long!
About: I adore all animals. Since I was a child animals have felt safe and protected around me. It's a special and pure love that we as humans don't always deserve! I'm a reliable, caring and trustworthy animal lover with a flexible schedule. I will always do my best to make your fur baby my priority! I treat animals as if they're children. They get the same love, care and patience that you would give a child. Even moreso, actually. Trust and respect are vital in a human and animal relationship.
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have always had pets in my household. At one point, I lived in a home with 12 dogs and 2 cats, so I am very comfortable caring for multiple pets, different personalities, and different breeds. I currently have a 2-year-old Standard Poodle of my own who is very loved and well cared for. I am also a mom of three, a nursing student, and a business owner, so I am responsible, organized, dependable, and used to managing a busy schedule. I understand that pets are part of the family, and I will treat your pet with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own. I make my own work schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet walks, drop-ins, and sittings into my routine. I’m also currently in nursing school, so I only work part-time. This allows me to plan my schedule around both school and pet care, making sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. For the Safety, Trust & Environment section, you could put: I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines. I’m very attentive and will treat your pet like one of my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m also respectful of their space and make sure everything is secure before I leave.

About: I bring 12 years of hands-on experience with a local dog rescue, including fostering, training, and caring for dogs of many breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. We have fostered everything from young puppies to dogs over 100 pounds, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual needs and routine. I’m also comfortable administering medications and providing extra care when needed. My experience has taught me to pay close attention to a dog’s behavior, body language, comfort level, and individual personality. Because I work full-time from home and don’t travel for work, I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Most importantly, I understand that every dog is different. I take the time to learn what makes your dog comfortable, happy, and feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home and don’t travel for work. Your dog will have plenty of companionship, attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away How I Care for Pets Our personal dog passed away a few years ago, and while we aren’t ready to get another dog just yet, we truly miss having one around. He was spoiled and treated like another member of the family, and that is the same warmth and care I provide to every dog I look after. I offer in-home boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. Whether your dog stays with me or I care for them in their own home, I’ll follow their normal routine, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Jonathan and Shynie are amazing! 1st time Boarding with them and definitely it is not going to be the last. My boy Abel was happy when i got there to pick him up. It seems like he did enjoy his 4 days with them. I got pictures of him few time a day and he always seems to be happy and having fun. They also had me updated every day on everything about him. I can't appreciate them more.”
“Our two dogs stayed with Debbie while we were on our honeymoon and I think they were sad to leave Debbie’s house! She was wonderful with sending pictures and letting us know how our dogs were doing. They were well taken care of and Debbie will be our go-to sitter anytime we need one. I highly recommend her!”
“We are beyond thankful for Suzanne and her son, Jackson! They were so welcoming when we first arrived! They went above and beyond in caring for our old pup (so much so that he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up!) We will absolutely rebook in the future ❤️”
“Jennifer is an incredible dog sitter and she took great care of Mandy! She walked her and took her on car trips and kept her safe and calm during the July 4th fireworks! We cannot say enough good about her care and treatment of our dog! We will definitely use her the next time we travel if she is available.”
“Lindsey was excellent and you can tell her and her household truly have a love for animals. They were flexible and accommodating for us and super easy to communicate and coordinate with. We look forward to booking our next stay with Lindsey :)”
About: I have been taking care of pets for our entire lives. i have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes (as well as reptiles, fish, and plants!). i have been pet-sitting for colleagues and friends for a while now as well as caring for three cats at home. i have previously cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with special needs and medication schedules. I have a fairly flexible schedule at my day job, and will coordinate around your schedule to make sure I can meet every pet's needs. I would prefer to care for pets in your home, as they're likely to be more comfortable that way (and my cats will too). However, I can make exceptions in special cases. I do prefer to have an initial meet and greet with pets and people to make sure everyone's comfortable. For house-sitting, I goal is to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible, so I will schedule my workday to be there with them as often as possible.
“I was worried about leaving my dogs for the first time with someone else for an entire week while we were on vacation... that is until the morning I met Kristen and then I immediately felt at ease. She sent pictures of my fur babies every day and was fast at responding. We were extremely satisfied with Kristen. I highly recommend her and definitely plan on asking her to watch them in the future.”
“There aren't enough stars for a rating! Fabienne was just fabulous in every way. I received many photos so I knew my 12 year old lab was in good hands. She wrapped him in a thunder shirt during a thunder storm, gave him lots of love, and even forgave him for getting into her garbage!”
“Raquel boarded my eight-week old kitten for six full days, and I cannot say enough how AMAZING she was! She sent so many pictures, checked in regularly, and made sure my pet was extremely well cared for. This was my first experience using Rover and I was so nervous, but Raquel made any concerns fly out the window after day one. I cannot recommend her enough and I will DEFINITELY be utilizing her services again!!!”
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Madison did an excellent job taking care of my dog! She sent me pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind, and he looked so happy and comfortable with her. I really appreciate the wonderful care she gave him and would absolutely recommend her!”
“I highly recommend Kelly. Bella was well taken care of and seemed to have been happy to "bond" with her dogs. Kelly was easy to communicate with and sent photos and updates . I would definitely board my dog with her again .”
About: I have been a dog owner my entire life, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my family. I currently have a dog of my own and understand firsthand how important it is to know that your pup is safe, comfortable, and loved when you can’t be with them. I have experience boarding my own dogs, so I understand what helps dogs feel happy and at ease while they’re away from their families. I know that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and individual needs. My experience includes providing daily care and attention, administering medications, bathing and basic grooming, and making sure dogs are comfortable, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay. When your dog stays with me, my goal is for them to feel like they’re staying with family, not just being boarded. I'll give them plenty of love, attention, and care while keeping them safe and comfortable in my home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home, which means there is almost always someone here to give your dog attention and care throughout the day. Our days naturally include regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, cuddles, and plenty of companionship. I am able to keep a close eye on the dogs staying with me and give them the individual attention they need, rather than leaving them alone for long stretches of time. I understand that dogs thrive on routine, so I do my best to maintain their normal feeding, medication, exercise, and rest schedules while they are with me. I also make time for plenty of love and one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because pet care is part of my everyday life, I am excited to welcome dogs into my home and make caring for them a natural part of my routine. My goal is for every pup to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while they are staying with me. I want every dog who stays with me to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I have a fully fenced-in yard where pups can enjoy outdoor time, play, and potty breaks in a secure environment. Inside my home, I believe dogs should be able to relax in whatever way makes them most comfortable. My couches are welcome to dogs who enjoy lounging and being close to people, and I provide crates for dogs who are crate trained and feel most secure having their own familiar space. I also have a separate room available for dogs who need some quiet time or prefer to have a break from the activity of the household. I understand that some dogs love being in the middle of everything, while others need a little space to decompress, and I am happy to accommodate both. Most importantly, I take the time to get to know each dog's personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether your pup wants to play in the yard, curl up on the couch, relax in their crate, or have some peaceful alone time, I will do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable throughout their stay.
