“Hannah was such a perfect fit for our girl Tif. Hannah was very caring and thorough and made sure we knew that Tif would be well-cared for. We feel very lucky to have met Hannah. Tif is also a ball of energy so it was great that Hannah has her own pets that Tif loved to play with. She was also great at sending plenty of pics!”
“Awesome sitter! Sent pictures without needing to request them and I loved the constant updates, great communicater☺️ The dogs came back very happy❤️ Definitely a dog sitter that I will be using again!”
“Autumn and her family took great care of our pups over the Independence holiday. We moved from out of state, so this was our dogs’ first time staying with a new family, after years of staying with the same family. Autumn paid attention to all the instructions about each of our dogs, especially our one who doesn’t like loud noises (fireworks). We would definitely use her again to watch our two Aussies.”
“An absolutely stellar experience! Leayn gave Banjo a home away from home. Outstanding communication, great flexibility, lots of pictures, and a great heart for the pet she cares for. Will absolutely use her again.”
“The first time I met Melissa, I knew our fox terrier, Hershey ♥️ would be in good hands. Melissa is kind, caring, responsible and sends daily pictures with updates. She has a beautiful fenced in yard. I highly recommend Melissa♥️”
“I very highly recommend going with Bill for your Rover needs. Incredibly easy to work with, provided an ideal amount of communication/updates on our pup. I have an energetic goldendoodle and he was returned to us very happy + worn out from his stay. I’ll reach out to Bill next time we need a Rover!”
“I am at ease when I leave my senior dog with Ashley. She is so considerate to send updates, photos and videos. Ashley will show love to your fur baby and you can tell they are happy when you pick them up. I have used her before and plan on continuing.”
“Greer was an amazing and accommodating sitter. This was my first time leaving my pup overnight on Rover. She gave me great updates and pictures. My dog was so comfortable and happy in her home. The love she showed Dulce gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely book again and recommend her to everyone!”
“Erin and her family were marvelous! She came through for me at the last minute the first time for a five day stretch with my 15 year old dog. This time it was three days and he was just as happy as the first. He was well loved, fed, walked , and catered to, as I spoil him, and so did she. I don’t go often but when I do, I will make sure to take my boy back to her!!!! Thank you.”
About: I used to help out a family friend with her dog sitting business, and have experience with taking care of all types of dogs. From little to small, cats or dogs I am very adaptable to what each pet needs. I'm a caring person and I would go out of my way to make sure a dog is happy. I pride myself on being reliable and punctual while updating pet parents with photos and reports after every visit. I treat your pets and your home with the utmost care and respect. Growing up I have had a dog with three legs, so I have learned how to take care of dogs that may need extra care and I love to figure out how to make a pet feel comfortable and safe, as well as have fun. I have experience with training puppies, as well as taking care of older pets that may need medications. I’m happy to provide walks to play sessions, as well as watering plants or taking in mail to ensure your home is secure while you’re away. Im currently working close to full time, but I have flexible hours to fit the needs of when to stop by to take care of your pets. It’s healthcare so my schedule tends to change quite often and sometimes I end up with days off during the week. I can do morning or night visits, as well as day ones during the weekend. I do have a dog of my own so my ability to stay overnight can vary but I’m always willing to board a dog that is friendly. I can easily help with crating your dog if that is needed, I crate my dog that I have at home. I’m willing to go out of my way to make your dog comfortable with me and will take the time to ensure trust. I am willing to take your pet for a long walk or spend time with them to make them feel less lonely.
About: I have over 25 years experience taking care of all breeds of dogs, cats, lizards, fish and just about anything else you can think of. Whether you have a senior or special needs fur baby, one with a lot of extra energy or if you'd just like your fur-kid to have some extra attention while you're at work or away, I'm open to whatever their needs are and taking care of them. I am self employed so I make my own schedule. Therefore I'm available to work around daily walks, play times, feedings or whatever is needed. I am open to doing whatever you recommend when staying in your home. I find it's easier on them when very little changes while you're gone, so I like to keep their routine as close to normal as possible.
“Fernanda took wonderful care of both of our dogs in her home. They were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up. She communicated consistently throughout their stay, which gave me great peace of mind, and she was extremely dependable from start to finish. I would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Selena went above and beyond while caring for my dog during Christmas break. Communication was excellent, I received regular updates and photos, and it was clear my dog was treated like part of the family. When I picked her up, she was relaxed, happy, and well cared for. Finding someone you trust during the holidays is priceless, and I absolutely found that here. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Sarah was very accommodating to my last minute care need. My girl is very anxious around other people but she was comfortable around Sarah from the first meeting. My girl enjoyed her day and I would definitely recommend Sarah to care for your fury babies!”
“Tanya and her husband are true animal lovers. They took in our energetic adolescent Aussiedoodle for 1 week, and at the end of our trip, he was happy, healthy, clean, and loving. He can be quiet the handful, and they supported him with love and grace. I’m very grateful, and highly recommend Tanya.”
“Beth was terrific with my little girl! My dog is elderly, and she saw how concerned I was leaving her alone, so she was right on the ball and texted me how she was doing and even sent videos so I could see her. I definitely will ask her again to watch my dog when/if we ever take another little trip.”
“Blue always loves her time with destiny and gill and we love the daily picture updates! Blue always comes home so happy and tuckered out, you can tell she had fun and got lots of love while we were away!”
“Karen and her husband Ray were amazing with my 4 month old puppy! My dog is really shy at first and is scared of other dogs, so I liked the fact that she can also board your dog by itself. She offered a meet and greet prior to our drop off day, which helped my pup be more comfortable with them and his new environment. She kept me updated throughout the day with texts and lots of pictures! My dog definitely seemed to enjoy his time with them. I highly recommend Karen and will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Kassie was wonderful!! She’s very responsive to my texts and accommodating to my requests. She treated my little fur babies with love and I would not only recommend her, but I’d definitely use her in the future.”
“My pets loved Jessica! She communicates well, asks great questions, and receives feedback well. She took great care of my fur babies, followed all the instructions to the T, and left my house clean and tidy. I will absolutely be booking with Jessica again.”
“Elaine did another excellent job looking after my two cats! She even took extra time to get to know the shy one and to clean up a few unpleasant messes from the not-so-shy one.”
About: From ages 6 to 11 I would walk to my grandparents house almost every day and feed/ keep their two small dogs company. My family has always had larger dogs since I can remember, so I have plenty of experience with that too! Currently, I have 2 dogs and a cat, all rescues, and I spend all of my free time with them. My love for animals has always been a strength and a weakness, as I’m sure many animal lovers will understand. As far as current experience, I hold a part time job but would love to make this a big part of my life/ schedule and hopefully have some regulars! I value trust and loyalty, which is why I’m a great choice for all the animal lovers out there. I’ve done some on and off dog sitting this past year for family, friends, and coworkers, but I am hoping to broaden my audience now! As I mentioned, I have a part time job with a very flexible schedule, so I am available to come and pet sit overnight, or drop in occasionally to walk and feed! I am open and understanding of all ways someone may want their pets to be taken care of, especially in their own home, so I will be careful of any boundaries and preferences!
“Allison was fantastic with our cats. Very patient since their scaredy cats. LOL. She had no problem giving our older cat his medicine. She was wonderful about updating us with everything that went on with them. She's very sweet and we'd love for her continue to work for us whenever needed ♥️”
About: I’ve personally loved and cared for numerous fur and scaly children throughout the vast majority of my life, whether it’s reptiles, dogs, or cats, I have owned and loved each and every one of them. I currently have 2 dogs, a highly energetic and jumpy Black Labrador Retriever Mix (Rutt Butt), and an equally energetic, but 26x more friendly and goofy Pittie Mix (Roofie Doofie). I also have two cats, one loves people and dogs, and the other just loves me and the dogs (terrified of new people). I also have a male Bearded Dragon named Groot, and a baby Sulcatta Tortoise named Oogway! That is the list of who I currently love and live with. I have been working with my Lab and Pittie mix with behavior training since the since the Rutt was a puppy and since I adopted Rufus in early 2025. I’ve consistently kept them structured with simple high energy break commands, long wait, increased food/treat drive, and all-around confidence and morale boost to any low self-esteem. I am currently working on Rover part time, so I will be devoting my days off from work to your pet(s) and their needs. I am wanting to grow this into my own personal side-business as there is nothing that I consider better, than a well-trained pet under high stress environments. I have 2 overly and aggressively friendly dogs. Rutt and Rufus are some of the biggest sweethearts when it comes to meeting new people as well as new furry friends. Rutt has lived with cats his entire life, and Rufus took a bit, but he is finally completely indifferent to life with cats and loves to play with everyone! All owners and their dogs during boardings, or play dates, have to plan for atleast a 30min to an hour meet and greet and orientation so that both yours and my needs are met during visits. I am always in control during the situations, such as I am ever-vigilant of slight non verbal cues and projections yours and my pets put off in order to blossom a happy and stimulating and playful environment. I currently have a house in the Burton area with a beautiful and quaint neighborhood loop well away from all major highways and roadways. I also have about 20-30 acres that are heavily wooded with some managed trails throughout behind my house that I will be more than happy to explore with your pets taking them through for enrichment and training. I will also be in total touch with you as an owner, and me as a sitter. I know that I would love to have pictures and videos of my pet’s life throughout their day with someone new, and I would be more than willing to send you pictures and videos through Snapchat, text, or however you prefer. I encourage the youth and playfulness of each pet and I hope they can achieve their potential. Pet care is my daily and weekly routine. I have two dogs, two cats, a bearded dragon, and a sulcatta tortoise. Each of my wonderful animals have different daily needs and requirements that I strive to meet so they can be the happiest animals and meet their full potential. I have 0.5acres of open backyard that is pushed up to about 20 acres of woodlands directly behind my house. I take my own animals on daily enrichment walks through the forest to aide them in their confidence and better their motor skills.
“Very thoughtful and appreciative of how she watches my boys! She was even able to befriend my extremely timid cat which shows just how cool of a person she is. My boys love it so far every time Taylor watches them!”
“Patty was all the things we’d look for in a sitter for our boys! She was warm and personable, provided detailed care, and was on time for every visit. She was sure to note all our requests, maintained prompt communication, and truly demonstrated integrity in her work. I felt so at ease reading her visit cards, and seeing the care our cats were receiving in the photos she sent while we were away. I can’t recommend her enough- thanks Patty!”
“Emma was awesome to my cat by ensuring he was taken care of when I was on vacation. She is super friendly and very responsible and as a bonus she even watered my plant outside. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will be using her again on a future visit.”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was in sixth grade, I am now a sophomore in college and I am looking to expand. I have had many animals my whole life, including dogs, guinea pigs, a bunny, fish and more. I have always advocated for proper care and exercise of animals and vouch to care for others animals the same way I do my own. I work a part time job at a coffee shop with shifts that usually last 4-8 hour. I have always been able to make pet care work with this schedule especially if the families live close enough. My usual routine for my current clients includes visiting once around 7:30 am, again around 11-12, coming back for dinner from 5-6 and then once more right before bedtime depending on the pet. I always make sure the animals space is clean and tidy so they are not sitting in their filth while I am gone. I refill water every time I leave and check food depending on the owners schedules. I usually spend about 30 minutes per visit with the animal to ensure they get all of their energy out and are properly cared for before I head back out but of course this varies for every one. I can take dogs for walks or play with them outside in a yard. I stick to the schedule the family provides with of course a little variation due to my work schedule but this is made known before taking a job!
About: My sister works for this company and when an emergency comes up, or she can’t make it to her appointments she asks me to cover for her. I adore animals and taking care of them is like a dream job. We used to have 24 dogs when I was a kid, and I learned how to help my parents to take care of every single one. I am a part time worker and college student, currently on brake, so I have a lot of time in my hands to take care of pets who need attention. I used to have a lot of dogs when I was a kid. I learned how to take care of them and keep them as safe and happy as I possibly can with the resources I am handed.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs as well as pet sitting others since I was a kid! I’m able and happy to walk, feed, bathe etc.! I’m currently spending most of my time applying for jobs as I transition between careers so I have plenty of time to care for your pets and love filling my time doing so. In your home I’m respectful of the rules you set for your pets and will always follow any direction that concerns their safety and health!

“Leayn was absolutely amazing! I needed a last-minute sitter for my old, deaf dog while I was in a meeting. He fit right in, and loved his time with her and the other dogs she was sitting. Thanks Leayn!”
“I traveled down from Maryland last minute for an unfortunate loss in my family. Everything happened so quickly that I didn't gave time to make arrangements for Bear, my 6 month old Cavapoo who had literally just gotten neutered a few days prior. After my 9 hour drive I prayed and hopped on Rover. God led me to Ashley and I have no regrets. Her home was beautiful and fulled with pictures of her sweet young family. She was so kind and Bear settled in immediately. I will definitely use her services again!!!!”
“Fernanda was super sweet and attentive with Murphy. She was very good with communication before during and after his day care visit. Fernanda sent pictures during his stay and he was very relaxed and happy. I recommend her for your fur baby too.”
“Karen was amazing with my two pups. I was worried about dropping off my pup, Kobe, since he can be afraid of strangers and has separation anxiety. He took to Karen immediately and didn’t even bark when we left. He seemed to make himself at home right away. Karen kept us updated with pics throughout the day, and Kobe had such a wonderful time that he didn’t even really notice when we came to pick him up. I’d definitely hire Karen again the next time we’re in town!”
“Excellent such a nice lady . Responed right away . Need someone last minuite . Took great care of my baby . Sent pictures and took for a nice walk . Highly recommed . Will use again when we come back to Bluffton . Thank you so much for taking great care of my baby .”
“Ashley was so sweet to my Winnie! We couldn’t ask for better - so very thankful for her doting on her and sending numerous pictures and updates. Thank you, Ashley! We would recommend her to anyone!!!”
“Rich and Dee were so wonderful with our dog, Staley. I felt super comfortable leaving her with them for the day. Communication was excellent (before, during and after) and they were super accommodating even when I booked last minute. She was tired and happy when I picked her up from a day of fun. Would highly recommend, and we will definitely be using them to help care for our dog again!”
“Sweetest person of all time! Brianna watched our cavapoo for a couple days while we stayed at the HH National RV park. She lives very close by and was super flexible to accommodate any times I needed to extend or end early. She works from home, has a beautiful house and a sweet little dog of her own. We had one request which was not to ever leave our dog alone and Brianna was more than happy to accommodate. Will absolutely use her again when back in Beaufort, Bluffton or Hilton Head!”
“Frank took wonderful care of our anxious (but sweet) Bernedoodle puppy, Mia. Mia absolutely loved him and it was huge peace of mind to know she was in good hands. Frank was kind, professional, and communicative. We would absolutely have him take care of our dog again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone!”
About: Hi, I'm Virginia! I've been an animal lover my entire life and know that pets are family. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, overnight care, or someone to keep them company while you're away, I'll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and understand that every dog has their own unique personality and routine. I'm happy to follow your instructions closely, whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, reinforcing training, or making sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles.

About: Before we had kids, we would dog sit up to four dogs at a time in our home. Now that our kids are old enough and understand how to care for and respect dogs we feel comfortable bringing kid friendly and potty trained dogs into our home. We’re all excited to love on your pup! Julie homeschools our children so they are home a majority of the day. If your pup is destructive or a chewer, please bring a crate for when they have to leave the house. We intend to love and care for your dog just as we love and care for Penny. We work together as a family to ensure your pets needs are met throughout the day and night.
“Madison and her husband were excellent. We have a large coonhound and he can be a handful at times. They took excellent care of him and when they dropped him off, he cried at the door watching Stephen leave. I would highly recommend them to care for you dog.”
About: I have been dog sitting for over 5 years, and have worked in a dog daycare/boarding facility. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs! I currently work part time which will give me ample time to take care of your pup! I do have a kitten in home but he has been around dogs before so he is comfortable around other animals! I live in an apartment but I can do frequent leash let outs. We are in a great neighborhood with sidewalks and space to go on walks.

“Emily was amazing! We have used Emily a few times now and will continue to do so if she’s available. As a sitter myself- I don’t trust just anyone to care for my babies. Emily takes time to say hello to them all, makes sure they all potty and give love when requested. 100000 stars here.”
About: I've always been an animal lover, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. As the owner of two huskies, I understand that pets aren't just animals, they're family. Living with two energetic huskies has given me plenty of experience with long walks, playtime, shedding, and making sure they get the exercise and attention they need. My background in the military has taught me responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. Whether it's sticking to your pet's routine, administering simple medications, or making sure they get plenty of exercise and affection, I'll care for them the same way I care for my own dogs. Every pet has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know each one. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. My goal is simple: to treat every pet like they're part of my own family and give you complete peace of mind while you're away. I'm currently serving in a special shore-duty assignment with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. Whether you need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening visits, or overnight care, I'm often able to adjust my schedule to fit yours. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking so they receive the care they're used to at home. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important communication is. I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and always prioritize safe walks, secure leash handling, and close supervision during playtime. I also respect every owner's instructions, whether that means following a feeding schedule, administering basic medications, or keeping up with your pet's favorite routines. I believe trust is earned, and I'll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and respect that I give my own two huskies
About: Raised with all kinds of pets, and I now care for two dogs and regularly dog sit. Experienced with seniors, puppies, and personalized, loving care. I currently work part-time and am available for pet sitting Monday through Friday. I am available from 8am-10pm. I also offer overnight care. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide pet sitting in your home where your pet feels most comfortable.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I honestly couldn’t imagine a home without them. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, and even had the privilege of working with service animals. My four pups are truly like my children, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to love and care for your dog just like you would. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I recently transitioned from a career in law enforcement in Tennessee to becoming a stay-at-home mom as I follow my husband, who proudly serves as an active duty Marine. I also continue to serve in the Army Reserves. Together we have four beautiful kids (with one more on the way!), and our home is always full of love, laughter, and wagging tails. Shifting from 12-hour swing shifts to more time at home has been a big change, but it’s given me the wonderful opportunity to spend more time caring for sweet fur babies. Safety and trust are my top priorities when it comes to caring for dogs. I treat every pup the same way I do my own four—like family. My dogs are never left unsupervised outside, always have access to fresh water, and are on a regular feeding and exercise schedule to keep them happy and healthy. I’m attentive to their needs, whether that means keeping a close eye on playtime, sticking to routines, or giving extra cuddles when they need comfort. You can feel confident knowing I’ll provide the same level of love, structure, and protection for your dog as I do for mine.
About: I have several references! I dog sit for my mom often (3 bloodhounds and a basset). I grew up with horses and cows. I have no allergies to any pet! Located in Port Royal (address is Beaufort.)I have a flexible schedule. Unable to do over night visits as I have 2 dogs of my own. I have a fenced yard. My dogs are friendly and playful (bloodhound and terrier mix) I feed them separately and kennel my bloodhound at night.
About: Dogs have been my greatest passion since childhood. Over the years, I’ve worked with a massive variety of breeds. I have experience with all seven American Kennel Club breed groups. My background includes caring for young puppies, managing multiple pet households, and specialized care for senior pets needing medication. I treat every client's dog with the same love and affection I would give my own. I have plenty of free time to drop in, walk, feed, and play with your furry friend. I am generally free every weekday Monday through Friday. I am usually available any time of day, even night time visits depending on what your schedule needs. I should be able to alter my schedule and negotiate pet care upon request if my other responsibilities allow for it, this may include weekends and holidays. Unfortunately, my place of residence does not have capacity for overnight stays or boarding. But I would be happy to visit your pet in their home to ensure their comfort and happiness. Just provide clear and descriptive instructions and schedules and I will be sure to follow them. If I have any questions i will be sure to reach out!

I currently have a house in the Burton area with a beautiful and quaint neighborhood loop well away from all major highways and roadways. I also have about 20-30 acres that are heavily wooded with some managed trails throughout behind my house that I will be more than happy to explore with your pets taking them through for enrichment and training. I will also be in total touch with you as an owner, and me as a sitter. I know that I would love to have pictures and videos of my pet’s life throughout their day with someone new, and I would be more than willing to send you pictures and videos through Snapchat, text, or however you prefer. I encourage the youth and playfulness of each pet and I hope they can achieve their potential. Pet care is my daily and weekly routine. I have two dogs, two cats, a bearded dragon, and a sulcatta tortoise. Each of my wonderful animals have different daily needs and requirements that I strive to meet so they can be the happiest animals and meet their full potential. I have 0.5acres of open backyard that is pushed up to about 20 acres of woodlands directly behind my house. I take my own animals on daily enrichment walks through the forest to aide them in their confidence and better their motor skills.
About: I’m a huge animal lover and will take care of your furry family members like my own. I will keep them engaged and loved and protected. Currently working M-F 8am-5pm. For homes closer to me, I can visit once during work hours. Anytime in the evening (my sleep schedule is 11pm-6am). Walks, feeding, play time, all no worry! Your pets will be taken care of as you instruct. All requirements precisely met. “Charley needs exactly 4oz of wet food served 3 times a day with 5ml of medicine in the midday meal?” No problem!
About: I don't remember a time in my life when pets weren't a part of it. As pet owner myself I value knowing my pet is safe and cared for when I can't be there. I find it rewarding to give others that same peace of mind in knowing their pet is safe and cared for with me when they can't be with them. I work during the day Monday-Thursday and am home Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I am also home every night. My dog Jasper is a 4.5-year-old lab who loves having company to play with but is also very chill and relaxed when at home. He is very good natured and gets along with others well. I live in an apartment and have access to a fenced in dog park located right outside my building. Many of the pets who stay here enjoy playing there and meeting new friends or just relaxing on my screened in balcony. There is also plenty of space for walking and a large field to run in if your dog prefers. I am currently working full time but am happy to commute from your home. Your pet would be cared for according to their routine in the morning and evening and I am free to return at lunchtime for walks, medication, etc. according to your pups needs. Evenings will be spent relaxing where snuggles are freely given. I am currently not able to provide boarding in my home. I provide dependable, in-home dog sitting so your pet can stay relaxed and happy in the place they know. I understand how important it is to maintain your dog’s routine, and I take pride in offering consistent care, attention, and affection while you’re away. Your peace of mind is important to me.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs as well as pet sitting others since I was a kid! I’m able and happy to walk, feed, bathe etc.! I’m currently spending most of my time applying for jobs as I transition between careers so I have plenty of time to care for your pets and love filling my time doing so. In your home I’m respectful of the rules you set for your pets and will always follow any direction that concerns their safety and health!

“Hannah was such a perfect fit for our girl Tif. Hannah was very caring and thorough and made sure we knew that Tif would be well-cared for. We feel very lucky to have met Hannah. Tif is also a ball of energy so it was great that Hannah has her own pets that Tif loved to play with. She was also great at sending plenty of pics!”
“Awesome sitter! Sent pictures without needing to request them and I loved the constant updates, great communicater☺️ The dogs came back very happy❤️ Definitely a dog sitter that I will be using again!”
“Autumn and her family took great care of our pups over the Independence holiday. We moved from out of state, so this was our dogs’ first time staying with a new family, after years of staying with the same family. Autumn paid attention to all the instructions about each of our dogs, especially our one who doesn’t like loud noises (fireworks). We would definitely use her again to watch our two Aussies.”
“An absolutely stellar experience! Leayn gave Banjo a home away from home. Outstanding communication, great flexibility, lots of pictures, and a great heart for the pet she cares for. Will absolutely use her again.”
“I very highly recommend going with Bill for your Rover needs. Incredibly easy to work with, provided an ideal amount of communication/updates on our pup. I have an energetic goldendoodle and he was returned to us very happy + worn out from his stay. I’ll reach out to Bill next time we need a Rover!”
“I am at ease when I leave my senior dog with Ashley. She is so considerate to send updates, photos and videos. Ashley will show love to your fur baby and you can tell they are happy when you pick them up. I have used her before and plan on continuing.”
“Greer was an amazing and accommodating sitter. This was my first time leaving my pup overnight on Rover. She gave me great updates and pictures. My dog was so comfortable and happy in her home. The love she showed Dulce gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely book again and recommend her to everyone!”
“Erin and her family were marvelous! She came through for me at the last minute the first time for a five day stretch with my 15 year old dog. This time it was three days and he was just as happy as the first. He was well loved, fed, walked , and catered to, as I spoil him, and so did she. I don’t go often but when I do, I will make sure to take my boy back to her!!!! Thank you.”
About: I used to help out a family friend with her dog sitting business, and have experience with taking care of all types of dogs. From little to small, cats or dogs I am very adaptable to what each pet needs. I'm a caring person and I would go out of my way to make sure a dog is happy. I pride myself on being reliable and punctual while updating pet parents with photos and reports after every visit. I treat your pets and your home with the utmost care and respect. Growing up I have had a dog with three legs, so I have learned how to take care of dogs that may need extra care and I love to figure out how to make a pet feel comfortable and safe, as well as have fun. I have experience with training puppies, as well as taking care of older pets that may need medications. I’m happy to provide walks to play sessions, as well as watering plants or taking in mail to ensure your home is secure while you’re away. Im currently working close to full time, but I have flexible hours to fit the needs of when to stop by to take care of your pets. It’s healthcare so my schedule tends to change quite often and sometimes I end up with days off during the week. I can do morning or night visits, as well as day ones during the weekend. I do have a dog of my own so my ability to stay overnight can vary but I’m always willing to board a dog that is friendly. I can easily help with crating your dog if that is needed, I crate my dog that I have at home. I’m willing to go out of my way to make your dog comfortable with me and will take the time to ensure trust. I am willing to take your pet for a long walk or spend time with them to make them feel less lonely.
“Fernanda took wonderful care of both of our dogs in her home. They were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up. She communicated consistently throughout their stay, which gave me great peace of mind, and she was extremely dependable from start to finish. I would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Selena went above and beyond while caring for my dog during Christmas break. Communication was excellent, I received regular updates and photos, and it was clear my dog was treated like part of the family. When I picked her up, she was relaxed, happy, and well cared for. Finding someone you trust during the holidays is priceless, and I absolutely found that here. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Sarah was very accommodating to my last minute care need. My girl is very anxious around other people but she was comfortable around Sarah from the first meeting. My girl enjoyed her day and I would definitely recommend Sarah to care for your fury babies!”
“Blue always loves her time with destiny and gill and we love the daily picture updates! Blue always comes home so happy and tuckered out, you can tell she had fun and got lots of love while we were away!”
“This is the third time we have left our pup with Gabriela and her family. It’s so comforting knowing she is with a loving family that treats her as their own. I know she loves it there and will continue to use her services.”
“I left my 2 year old lab Belle with Julie and Chris so we could go on our family vacation for one week. At the meet and greet Julie asked all the necessary questions on how to take care of Belle. Belle and Parma were instant friends at the meet and greet! I feel lucky to have found such nice people to take care of Belle in our neighborhood. I received daily updates on Belle pictures and videos. I highly recommend Julie and Chris they are true dog people!!!”
“Julie was awesome! She has a dog, kitten, and a sweet little girl that got along great with our puppy and she sent us picture updates! She was very flexible with the drop-off and pick-up times and took wonderful care of our little fur baby! Thanks Julie we'll definitely be using you again!”
“Edra was excellent with our pups! We have a 12 year old Spaniel and a 6 year old Frenchie. Both are spoiled and get anxious in traditional kennels. Edra boarded them and treated them like her own. We definitely recommend her.”
“Megan and her family were great. They treated my dog very well. Even when I had to stay for an extra day on my trip, they cooked for my dog and fed him. I recommend Megan. She is great!”
