Highly-rated overnight sitters - Johnston
“Jen was awesome to our 10 year old lab and 1.5 year old rescue mix. This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy with the experience and care our boys received. We will definitely book with Jen for all future stays!”
“This was the first time ever using a pet sitter that wasn’t family or close friends and we couldn’t have been more pleased with Mel, she is truly the best! From beginning to end there were no complications. Mel was so accommodating and quick to respond. We were out of the country for 2 weeks and received so many videos, pictures, & updates on how our Delilah was doing. I will be recommending Mel’s services to everyone I know and whoever reads this I have no doubt your fur baby will be in great hands.”
“Our dog Zara had a fantastic stay with KIm. Very grateful for her. She sent regular pictures and updates and really took very good care. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring host!”
“Samantha was so great to our Auggie! He’s very large, playful, and has a lot of energy, and she cared for him very well! Auggie got home and was so tired from playing all day long with the other boarders. Safe to say he had a blast and we didn’t have to worry about him at all while we were gone, because Samantha provided us with updates throughout his stay. Definitely recommend her (and her cute German shepherd, Lady)!”
“melanie was amazing :) with this being our first time leaving our benji with a sitter she was so kind to answer all our questions she was patient and sent us updates along with pictures which was very comforting to know benji was in good hands . she’s the best !!”
“Emilie is an awesome petcare provider. She kept my 3 babies over the Christmas holidays while my family went on a cruise. I was able to enjoy knowing they were in good hands. She was very flixible and gave them the same treatment and compassion as if they were her own. I would highly recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“This was a great visit for my dog, Charlotte loved it and had fun. They took her out let her run around, and most of all pics everyday of not more. They are very caring people. They will treat like their own pet. It was well worth the price.”
“This is Reggie’s second time staying with Jennica. And we are so happy to have found her! She clearly loves dogs and gives our fur ball love and attention. She provides constant updates and stays on top of communication. We really appreciate her services!”
“We love Whitney! She’s such an amazing sitter. Asher always has a great time. She always makes sure the pups mesh well together and will try her best to accommodate where she can. 5 stars every single time.”
“I highly recommend Jennifer she does an amazing job we will definitely be having her watch our fur babies again if we ever need someone, she kept us updated and sent us lots of pictures and always made sure the dogs had what they needed!! Thank you!”
“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”
“Amazing experience, extremely communicative and easy to work with could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs were very happy upon pick up and my dogs love playing with her puppy.”
“Harley’s experience was wonderful. She enjoyed playing with their family dogs and cooling off in their kiddie pool. We enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of her having a great time during her visit. Our experience was also wonderful. They were very flexible for us with drop off and pick up when our plans changed. They even let us know when she ran out of food and offered to pick her up some for us. They went above and beyond and took great care of our Harley girl. Very grateful, would 100% recommend and will use them for future trips. Would give them more stars if I could!”
“Kristina was so sweet and had great communication throughout the stay! She took amazing care of my three pups, and they all seem very happy. My dogs also seemed to love spending time with her pups. We’ll definitely be booking with her again soon!”
“Emily was more than amazing! My doggo had the BEST time ever. I love that she sent updates and pictures throughout his stay and let me tell ya, he was WORE out when he got home. We will definitely be using Emily again for future dog sitting needs!”
“Hank had a great time, as always! And we were able to enjoy our trip knowing that Hank was in great hands. If you’re ever looking for a home away from home for your fur babies, these are your people!!!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog, Parker! Payton took amazing care of him while I was away and kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Parker was clearly happy and well-loved the entire time. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly cares for the pets she watches. Payton will definitely be my go-to from now on!”
“Kelly took excellent care of our dog and he had tons of fun! She sent pics and videos daily to let us know how he was doing. Highly recommend and would allow her to keep our furry friend again.”

“We could not imagine a better caretaker for Ace! Sheryl gives him TONS of attention and he adores her right back. He is not fond of people he doesn't know but he took to Sheryl immediately and I know he is happy to see her when we are away. She sends GREAT, thorough 'report cards' with pics and we feel very fortunate to have met her!”
“Sam is a godsend. Our old man cranky cat loves her and she is always so willing to work with our last minute plans. Family is full of chronic ‘oh by the way!’ Folks and so we don’t get a lot of heads up. She is always fantastic.”
About: I haven’t owned a cat in quite some time, but my sister had 10+ cats in her home that I cared for, played with and loved on over the years. I’m very familiar with how to care for cats and will love on them and play with them while you’re away :)
About: I myself am a dog owner. I have one shitzus who is 16 years old and a new Jack Russell puppy who is now 5 years old. I love playing tug a war. Running with them. Cudding and talking to them. I can never find a dog who loves taking a bath because for some reason my dogs don't but, they love to have their hair combed. I have a open home and let them run around inside and outside. My dogs usually sleep on my bed. I love cuddling with my dogs during the rain it's fun to know they have someone to rely on. I am a soon to be college student. I’m living with my best friends but are apartment complex is super friendly to animals! We have a dog park and many more! My besties both are big dog lovers. I myself love all animals. I do have a part time job I do get my schedule during the end of the week. So just communicate with me if you want something done a certain way or have a schedule you ALWAYS follow. I am a friendly and open person. So don't be afraid to talk to me. I work from home so I just stay home most of the time. I’m more of a gamer and I like to watch anime. So I’ll be there to snuggle and give your pets love and kisses! And feed them. Well I have a a fenced back yard!:3 where they can play and have fun! We also have a little dog park that I can walk with them to. I just let them be themselves. I want them to feel that they are happy with me and safe. I work from home and by the time the time I work all the babies will be in bed and have gone to the bathroom one final time. So I'm mostly free throughout the day. We have a fenced yard where they can run around and play outside! Plus plenty of space inside for them to walk around and explore
“Chelsea did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs while we went out of town for Memorial Day weekend. She was always on time, communicated well and always sent thorough descriptions of her visits with pictures. She went above and beyond while taking care of my boys, from drying them off when they got wet from dew on their morning walk, to cleaning up a pee accident one of them had. As someone who has had a bad experience with another sitter taking care of my dogs, Chelsea was a breath of fresh air and definitely sets the standard for great pet care. If you need someone reliable who will take care of your pets like her own, then Chelsea is definitely the sitter for you!”
About: I am a BIG animal lover! My pets and my friends pets though out my life have always had a special place in my heart. I have been caring from friends and families dogs and cats for 5 years.

Usually I work for 3 hours in the afternoon on a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.

My schedule is very flexible! I will make sure to keep my calendar up to date so that there is no confusion of miscommunication!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Johnston
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and many other animals for many years since I was a kid. I grew up always outside and around animals so it feels very natural for me to be around them and in my home. I currently have a small farm with two dogs that guard the sheep, one cat, two sheep and chickens. I’m currently a stay at home mom. My days are spent mostly at home and working on our little farm with a flexible schedule to do a drop in visit, day care, or to have a boarder. My children love animals and are used to being around various breeds and types. We have large fenced in back yard, in addition 5 acres to take the dogs on leashed walks. We never leave the dogs outside alone and the cats we watch remain inside unless they are leash trained. I’m very happy to learn what works best for your pet. I would not leave them outside unattended, if I have to leave the house for some reason they would go in their crate or be in the house depending on your needs. I’m happy to do crates or whatever would make your pet feel most comfortable, but it is not a requirement that they have a crate. We usually find the dogs feel safer when they can sleep with us in our room if that is okay with you. We want all the animals happy and most importantly safe!
“Ms Kim always takes excellent care of my girls. They are puppies, with lots of energy and my schedule is not always reliable to be the same. She is great to work with and provides open communication about the status of my fur babies. Peanut and Dot love daycare days! 🐾”
“We came in from out of town and needed someone to watch our dog while we were attending an event. Our dog was happy and Hillary even clipped his nails for us. Thank you!”
“Laura took excellent care of my girl Lucy. She kept me updated throughout the day with comments and pictures. It was obvious Lucy enjoyed herself. I will be sure to ask Laura to care for Lucy or her sister and brother Gretta and Hawk in the future.”
“Shermida is amazing! Super sweet and amazing to work with. Great response times and communication, wants to know how to best work with pups to make time with the the best it can be. Would highly recommend! Would love to be able to have my girls with her again!”
About: I have 25 years of experience as a pet sitter being self-dubbed the "overnight queen" as I specialize in overnight stays of any length. The dogs and I have FUN slumber parties during which I fully engage with and interact with them, playing with their toys and giving the most excellent tummy rubs imaginable! Owners are happy too as they return to a happy pet - dogs "tell" by their behavior and in over 500 pet sits, every dog has been safe, sound ... and happy! In fact, many owners say I did a great job because "my dog acted like it didn't even know I was away!" All dogs love me ... and I love them. Dogs are people, too - only better ! I am self-employed so can set my schedule, especially with as much advance notice as possible. I often bring my little 9 pound, Shih Tzu, which I keep and a carry crate and kennel that has worked out fine with both dogs and cats. We can arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have separate bedrooms if dogs need their own privacy, but I do try to have dogs interact and be friends. I have a long hallway to play fun games and go get it!
“Very pleasant young lady. Took excellent care of my little girl cotton. Thanks for the picture updates!!! They put my mind at ease. This was my first time using Rover and thanks to Nahla it won’t be my last!!!”
About: Hello! I’ve been a dog sitter for over 12 years now. From assisting with the birth of puppies and kittens, to helping our older babies get out of their bed, and holding their paw while they take their last breaths, I’ve done it all. I truly have a passion for animals and want to provide them with the best life possible. After all, they are our best friends! I have experience with epileptic, pregnant and in heat, sick, physically disabled, and as I mentioned, new borns and older dogs! I have a very open schedule! I’m free in the mornings, nights, middle of the day, and on weekends. whenever you need me, I’m here! I never let the dogs out without a leash at my house, no matter how experienced they are with the area or how well they listen. Their safety is my biggest priority. Let me know your preferences and guidelines to follow!
About: I love love love canines. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own 🥰 I’m very active and love to entertain animals. I have experience with both small & large breeds. I've been an animal lover since childhood. My childhood dream was to become a veterinarian but I decided on taking a different path and served in The Military for 20 years. I’ve had the unique experience of breeding Boxers for a few years. As a breeder I have cared for newborn puppies, deworming, administering shots, and potty training them until eventually finding them forever homes. I will walk, feed, and play with your fur baby and set their minds at ease until you return. I am retired and I’m ready to start a hobby that I will love. Please let me know any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration and I can't wait to meet your furry family member. I am currently unemployed and lots of free time to spend with your fur baby. I like to take walks and would love the extra company. I have a huge fenced in yard. I can crate your fur baby only if it is necessary. There is a separate space fenced in in my backyard if needed.
“My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs (of various breeds) since I was in middle school. I have done short-term and long-term care both out of my house or going over to the owner's house. I am a very calm and reassuring person and have worked with both young and elder dogs. I am a recent graduate who is currently applying to post-graduate programs and jobs, so I have great flexibility in my schedule when I am not helping my grandmother with errands or volunteering at Greendale Elementary (on Tuesday and Thursday mornings). I can do any weekday besides Wednesday afternoons. I can do most times on the weekends unless I have a prior engagement planned. I can do Christmas/Winter Break, but I will be away for Thanksgiving this year. I have a fenced-in yard and have plenty of room for housing your pet as there are no other pets in the house currently. The neighborhood is very safe and has walking paths for walking pets. I am also happy to drop in or stay at your home if that is more comfortable for your pet (or you)!

Feel free to ask me anything im as cool as a cucumber lol maybe a bad joke lol I am currently not working at the moment due to just completing school and wanting a break.

About: I have owned dogs for over 34 years. Our dogs have ranged from Great Pyreneese and Grey Hounds down to 5 pound chihuahuas. Our last dog (Jack the teacup Chihuahua) lived until he was 18 years old. We decided it would be fun to help others board their beloved dogs as we had the privilege of using house sitters many times over the last 34 years. I am an adjunct faculty at a nearby University and teach almost exclusively online. My schedule at home is pretty much that of a stay at home mom. My husband and I love to take long walks and have always in the past included our dogs. We have a large home (2700 square ft) with no stairs. We have a large fenced in backyard and we do have an in ground pool. I always go outside with our dogs as I do not trust hawks and owls (especially with small breeds) and not all dogs are familiar with pools. I love to share my couch with pets to get extra cuddle time in. We allow dogs in every room of our home and invite smaller dogs into bed with us. Food and water is always available (except when an owner wants a specific schedule). Most of the home is wood floors with the exception of our living room.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, or a calm and attentive sitter while you're away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. **I also offer yard freedom for all my furry friends, as our home sits on .25 acres of fenced in yard, a sought after haven for those high energy babies who love to get their zoomies in!** I understand that every dog is unique, so I always take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and energy levels. From energetic walks and games to relaxed companionship, I tailor my care to what your dog needs most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I treat every dog like they’re my own and work hard to build trust with both pets and their owners. I’d love the chance to meet you and your dog and help make their days happier while you’re busy or away! I am a SAHM, so caring for dogs and cats can easily be built into my schedule! My little one loves animals, so taking him along or introducing him to someone new is always exciting, he also enjoys playing with them! We do love backpacking on trails, so there is no limit to the care and fun I can provide. I provide safe, attentive, and loving care whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. Since I have animals of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and I treat every animal like part of the family. For **boarding in my home**, I create a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and follow a routine similar to what they’re used to. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and a safe space to rest. For **house sitting in a client’s home**, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I also help keep the home tidy and make sure pets feel secure while their owner is away. For **dog walking**, I make sure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to the dog’s energy level. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower sniff-and-explore pace, I tailor the walk to their needs. For **drop-in visits**, I stop by to feed pets, refresh water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, provide playtime, and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. No matter the service, I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with a natural love for animals. Attentive to each pet’s unique needs, providing a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment while owners are away. Experienced with dogs, cats, and small animals—treats every pet like family. I have experience with special needs, and senior pets, as well as potty training puppies. When I meet with family, questions are answered in order to arrange the best schedule for you and your pet. Currently pet sitting is my full-time position, which allows flexibility to keep your fur baby as close to their usual schedule. When caring for a pet in their home, I do my best to keep the same routine and care that the parents keep. Ongoing communication, learning about each individual animals personality, likes and dislikes, and any medical concerns are important to make sure your pet is getting the best care and you have piece of mind while you're away.
About: Hey there my name is Danielle, I have taken care of dogs of all ages ranging from puppies going through their first heat to senior dogs with lack of abilities. Growing up I had all sorts of pets in my home and enjoyed sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. Also one of my first jobs was at a dog boarding and day care facility. I love all breeds of dogs and cats and just want to keep them happy and healthy and have a fun time. I am available on the weekends and I love the outdoors so any chance to get some sunshine is my favorite. Meeting new people and pets is something I always look forward to. I have a fenced backyard, and my dog is friendly. I do not leave dogs unattended outside because I want to be sure they won't try to escape the yard or dig holes. When in a client's home I am sure to read all instructions given prior to my drop in. I make sure that the their pet is given my full attention during my time there. If I have any questions I am not afraid to ask. I will also send updates and photos if requested.
“Madison was professional and went above and beyond to tidy up and care for my 3 dogs. I am happy we found her in short notice and she was able to accommodate us. I will definitely depend on her in the future.”
About: We’ve had our puppy since he was 8 weeks old! We’ve potty trained him and taught him to do basic skills and to be very obedient. He could run outside and come back immediately when we call if he gets out. I am a stay at home mom. We have a 3 year old German shepherd that is low maintenance so plenty of time to help other furry friends. Also open to bringing him along for play dates, he is super friendly! We are working on a fence but for now either let our dog out the back yard to potty or play with our supervision or place him on the lead for short periods of time. He runs freely inside and has food/water in bowl at all times during the day.
About: I work summers at my mom’s dog daycare, boarding, and training facility. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and know my way around horses too.

About: I grew up with many dogs and cats and have loved helping take care of all animals ever since I was a kid! I have experience helping family friends by taking care of their pets while out of town. I am currently out of college for the summer and have a very open and flexible schedule and are available for any pet sitting or walking needed!

About: Hi there! I’m Cecilya, and truthfully I’m just looking for more reasons to spend more time outside. Animals have always held a soft spot in my heart and will treat yours as if they were my own when needed. — As a distance runner I’m always looking for a running buddy because my couch potato Rottie isn’t built for distance. If you need check-ins, long walks, short walks, or maybe even want your pets to just have some company for a while I would be more than happy to build long lasting relationships to ensure long term comfort for your pets. I’m really picky about who watches my pets because I don’t feel like people will provide them the same type of care, but I will provide you with as much or as little updates, pictures, and check-ins to ensure your comfortability. I work from home and would be able to give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. I take regular breaks and would like to use these for more productivity than doom scrolling, so getting out of the house for drop ins or take my work with me for a longer sit in and play situation. With my work from home schedule I can easily keep a consistent feeding, bathroom, and cuddle schedule allowing me to be able to provide genuine companionship and care to your pets. I have four cats of my own, and each of them have their own quirks and personalities. I’m used to meeting my own pets where they’re at and moving at their pace to care for their needs and not push their boundaries. I play with them in spare moments but my cats are more cuddly than most so they all play with each other more than with me. I’m never one to force a cat to like me, if your cat does not like attention I won’t go out of my way to make them uncomfortable in their own home. For dogs, I’m experienced with daily grooming and health routines like brushing teeth and cleaning ears, and I make sure they get the right mix of exercise, attention, and downtime. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while sticking closely to their usual routine.

I have worked with many puppies. I am very good with cats. I have 3 of my own. I have worked with many shy cats and know to take my time and to be patience. I am currently work on fear free course for my shelter job but hope to bring that to my sitter jobs. To help make a dog or cat comfortable. I also am familiar with rabbits and guinea pigs. I am also willing to work with any other type of animals that you need caring for. I currently work at my shelter job on Thursday and Fridays. I am a stay at home mom who has a little more flexibility to do two to three drop in visits during the day. The days I work I would only be able to drop in twice a day. When I visit clients pets: ●I will make sure their water dishes are full ●Feed or refill automatic feeders ●Let the dogs outside to be able to stretch and use the bathroom ●Clean litter boxes daily or every other day depending on amount of cats ●Spend time with the animals, from playing to cuddling of animal allows. ●Give medications if needed ●Make sure I count for each animal before I leave.

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of many different kinds! I have taken care of both geriatric & adolescent aged animals. As well as having experience with animals who have special needs like blindness, deafness, and giving medication. I hope to meet your babies soon! I'm currently in graduate school to become a speech language pathologist and I’m wanting to supplement my income with some sitting/walking/dropping in jobs before and after school during the week and on the weekends. I will not be able to provide sitting services for any pets inside of my home as I already have multiple animals like cats, dogs, chickens, and fish at my home.

I’m a very patient person. My ability to tailor care to each pet's unique needs sets me apart, ensuring a comfortable and enriching experience for all furry companions. I’m currently in school. I’m a college student. I’m mostly have classes during the mornings. I take a whole hour drive to school. My schedule this upcoming semester is I just have classes in the morning and I’m free at noon. My busiest day will be Thursday. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs. I can put them in their cages if needed. I feed the dogs and give them a lot of time to play.

It’s like a vacation for your pets when I watch them. No job is too big or too small. And there is attention in every detail when it comes to your pet care and health. I’m currently working a full time job as a Kennel Assistant and only work 5 days a week. I’m very accommodating and flexible as well. I give each pet individual attention so no one gets jealous. And I have a great attention to detail when it comes to taking care of other peoples pets. I treat them like they are my own.
About: I have 25 years of experience as a pet sitter being self-dubbed the "overnight queen" as I specialize in overnight stays of any length. The dogs and I have FUN slumber parties during which I fully engage with and interact with them, playing with their toys and giving the most excellent tummy rubs imaginable! Owners are happy too as they return to a happy pet - dogs "tell" by their behavior and in over 500 pet sits, every dog has been safe, sound ... and happy! In fact, many owners say I did a great job because "my dog acted like it didn't even know I was away!" All dogs love me ... and I love them. Dogs are people, too - only better ! I am self-employed so can set my schedule, especially with as much advance notice as possible. I often bring my little 9 pound, Shih Tzu, which I keep and a carry crate and kennel that has worked out fine with both dogs and cats. We can arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have separate bedrooms if dogs need their own privacy, but I do try to have dogs interact and be friends. I have a long hallway to play fun games and go get it!
About: I’ve always had a dog as a child growing up. I love animals and would love to watch your dog! I think dogs are the cutest and sweetest animals and all they need is love. I will play with your dog, feed your dog, walk your dog, make sure your dog has plenty of water, and give your dogs lots of love and attention. My family has relied on me to walk, feed, and stay with their pets while they are out of town. I am in college but I have plenty of free time and I am always available to watch your dog! I am available seven days a week. I take care of my dog by feeding him, playing with him, giving him a bath, and taking him on walks. I always make sure he has plenty of water as well. I also take him to the vet once a year for his yearly check up. Every night after he eats I give him his treats that he loves.

About: My first job was at a German Shepherd training facility when I was 16. I was responsible for bathing, feeding, exercising, and playing with the dogs! I was one of their main caretaker for a couple years. I was also the primary puppy trainer at the facility. I’ve also had dogs of my own my entire life—big and small, and I absolutely adore dogs and love working with them. It makes me truly happy and relaxed to be with animals and I’m trying to find a stable living doing something I love! I’m currently looking for work, so I have plenty of free time to walk or watch your pets! I would really like to be a full time dog walker for a while. I’m 22, so I’m young and I have lots of energy to play and time to spend with your babies. I would like pet care to be apart of my routine daily Monday-Friday! I’m also available to walk or watch pets over the weekend/long periods of time! I live on a farm, so I have lots of space for your pets to play and run around on! I also have a very sweet and friendly dog of my own that would keep your baby good company! I can easily crate your pet if need be, I have various sizes here and lots of room for storage. I would totally understand wanting your dog to stay at home in their normal environment as well, so I would be more than willing to travel and stay at your home with them while you’re away!

“Jen was awesome to our 10 year old lab and 1.5 year old rescue mix. This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy with the experience and care our boys received. We will definitely book with Jen for all future stays!”
“This was the first time ever using a pet sitter that wasn’t family or close friends and we couldn’t have been more pleased with Mel, she is truly the best! From beginning to end there were no complications. Mel was so accommodating and quick to respond. We were out of the country for 2 weeks and received so many videos, pictures, & updates on how our Delilah was doing. I will be recommending Mel’s services to everyone I know and whoever reads this I have no doubt your fur baby will be in great hands.”
“Samantha was so great to our Auggie! He’s very large, playful, and has a lot of energy, and she cared for him very well! Auggie got home and was so tired from playing all day long with the other boarders. Safe to say he had a blast and we didn’t have to worry about him at all while we were gone, because Samantha provided us with updates throughout his stay. Definitely recommend her (and her cute German shepherd, Lady)!”
“melanie was amazing :) with this being our first time leaving our benji with a sitter she was so kind to answer all our questions she was patient and sent us updates along with pictures which was very comforting to know benji was in good hands . she’s the best !!”
“Emilie is an awesome petcare provider. She kept my 3 babies over the Christmas holidays while my family went on a cruise. I was able to enjoy knowing they were in good hands. She was very flixible and gave them the same treatment and compassion as if they were her own. I would highly recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“This was a great visit for my dog, Charlotte loved it and had fun. They took her out let her run around, and most of all pics everyday of not more. They are very caring people. They will treat like their own pet. It was well worth the price.”

“Harley’s experience was wonderful. She enjoyed playing with their family dogs and cooling off in their kiddie pool. We enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of her having a great time during her visit. Our experience was also wonderful. They were very flexible for us with drop off and pick up when our plans changed. They even let us know when she ran out of food and offered to pick her up some for us. They went above and beyond and took great care of our Harley girl. Very grateful, would 100% recommend and will use them for future trips. Would give them more stars if I could!”

Parker was clearly happy and well-loved the entire time. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly cares for the pets she watches. Payton will definitely be my go-to from now on!”

Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“My dogs had a great time with Joshua! I got lots of photos and updates. You could see how happy they were in the pics. He took great care of my 5 month old puppy and administered her medicine. So I'd definitely recommend him for your puppies and older dogs. They got lots of playtime outside but they were also kept inside with people and other dogs so they were not left lonely. Socializing is very important to me as my dogs are inside dogs and used to being with people. It was a great experience for us and we will definitely book again.”
“My dog absolutely loved staying with her! She’s great at communicating and sending me updates of my baby, I felt safe with leaving my dog with her, and she took great care of him. Will definitely be coming back!”
