Personalized care for your dog or cat - Whitehead
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Whitehead
“Amanda was so helpful in watching our two pups on fairly short notice. She was very welcoming and gave tremendous attention to both pups. We highly recommend Amanda for all your dog watching needs and we will definitely use Amanda again and again. I can guarantee you will not be disappointed!”
“I felt so reassured by the level of care provided by Lamar and Amber! I was given updates and photos frequently, and we look forward to future visits with them.”
“Deborah was absolutely amazing with my pups! I’m so happy that I found her! One of my pups has quite a few quirks and Deborah was so patient and kind with her 🥹 my pups were part of the family over the holiday, they loved our pups like their own! What a relief to find such a kind and caring sitter. Not only was she amazing with the dogs, she was also so patient with me having multiple travel delays. She is so sweet and understanding! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!!”
“Thank you, melissa for taking care of Maya! She always enjoys her visits with you and is usually sad for a couple of days when she comes home. We are so lucky to have you in our neck of the woods!”
“Pam was absolutely wonderful and took the best care of our 11-year old Frenchie. She was so loving and kind, and was so patient with her as she’s not the easiest dog! She was great at communicating and sending us updates and photos. Absolutely recommend Pam and her wonderful family and we hope to book again with her in the future!”
“Best experience we could have had! He had so much fun and was loved on and walked plenty. He was so happy when I got there. Tori was so friendly. She sent me pics every day with an update and we will definitely be sending Oreo there again anytime we go anywhere!!”
“I’ll keep it simple: I’m pretty sure our Great Pyrenees is sad he had to come home. Ha! Matt and Candice were incredible hosts for him. Very excited that we met them and hope it works out again in the future.”
“Alexander was amazing! He gave frequent updates, lots of pictures and my golden, Scout had a blast with his golden, Archie! Will definitely use him again in the future!”
“Season is great! It was my first time using the Rover app and everything was wonderful! She took care of my 6 month old Maltipoo and the minute my puppy saw her, I knew he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend, Season!”
“Serenity has been an incredible dog sitter for our senior dog, Molly. She watches her for extended periods and always provides the most loving, safe, and comfortable environment while we’re away. Molly has elderly-dog needs, and Serenity is so patient, attentive, and accommodating to them. It gives us such peace of mind knowing Molly is so well cared for and genuinely loved in our absence. We are beyond thankful for Serenity and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet care!”
“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“Michelle was fantastic! She has kept my pups on several occasions, and they were almost always on super short notice, but she came through every time. I have an elderly dog who has had multiple knee operations, that can be very anxious in new environments, and a husky that can be more than a handful at times, but Michelle is amazing and is able to meet their individual needs beyond what anyone could expect from a dog sitter. She is organized and professional and you can tell right off the bat how much she cares for all of the dogs that she cares for. I am so thankful to have her to take care of my pups when I can’t. I would highly recommend to anyone needing a sitter.”
“Trish is a very kind host and did great with our 1 year old Australian Shepherd. She has a great space downstairs where she's able to watch dogs, and I felt great leaving our dog with her. Our dog, Willow, loved her too! Highly recommend booking Trish!”
“We truly appreciate the care that they gave to our Lucy! She enjoys herself when she is in their care and they are very accommodating. This was especially appreciated because we were traveling to Florida for a funeral. We contacted them at the last minute and they were very empathetic and they treated her with care.”

“Jamal is a neighbor, right across the street. He's a great guy, and did well letting my dog, Shuri, out into the yard on a tether. But, he somehow got the alarm triggered by not following my instructions, and the alarm company called me while I was in a conference doing videography in front of about 60 people. All in all, he did what I needed for the dog visit.”
“Alishia is a great neighbor and dog sitter! I highly recommend. She was communicative the whole trip and made sure my dog was fed, had time to potty, and even some cuddles. I felt my dog and home was safe with her visiting when I needed her. Even when my dog fell sick, she went the extra mile to keep me posted and checking on her. I’m glad she is local to Chapel Hill and will be using her services again.”
“Bella was super communicative and helpful and made me feel super comfortable with leaving my dogs with her. She treated all 4 of my dogs like her own and spoke so sweetly to them, cleaned up after them, and asked questions and updated me when necessary. I will definitely be reaching out to her again if I need my puppies watched again, love her :)”
About: Hello my name is Asheley,yes with an extra "e" . I absolutely adore animals of all kinds but my favourite are dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs,cats,birds,various small caged animals and horses. I have learned to work with them all. I have 2 cats and a fish at home with me now. If you trust me in the care of your pets i promise you will not be disappointed. I will treat them like my very own. I can do home stays,check ins,walks and they can even stay with me at my home! I have my own transportation and a fulltime job as well but its a flexible enough job to make sure your furbabies are checked up on! I will give treats to them as often as you like, whichever kind they prefer and i can send you pics of us taking walks or just relaxing on the couch. I am a 34 year old female by the way if that matters to anyone trying to choose. Thank you and have a great day! I work fulltime but i always make time for the fur babies. Weekends are usually free for me and i do have a day off during the week I will always ask the customers wishes about taking their animals outside or not. I do not have a fenced in yard but i do have extra leashes and harnesses as well as friendly cats
“Haley is our go to sitter for our animals. She is kind, communicative, and adaptable. Will continue to use her in the future for our dog/car/fish needs. Highly recommend Haley!”
“Annalaura was incredible! Super friendly and took great care of our cat. Went above and beyond getting extra litter when we ran out and super communicative the whole time. Highly recommend and would definitely book her again!”
About: I frequently volunteer at the animal shelter. I’m good with most animals. Including reptiles,dogs and cats. I have always had a strong passion for animals. I have plenty of pet experience. I am free most days at anytime. Just name your date and time and I’ll be there. I have graduated high school. I’m very motivated I Offer dog walking and really any other pet care. I can watch your animals and take care of them. I will feed, water,play and walk. I would be willing to stay in the clients home. My only limit is I can’t have other pets at my home because I do have other animals.
“Katie did a great job with caring for my 2 male cats for a week. One of my cats had been recently diagnosed with a medical issue. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Katie was staying at my house & frequently checking up on him.”
“Leah jumped right in to cat sit when we couldn't find a sitter at a busy time around the holidays. She was always on time and communicated with us often with pictures. Leah did an outstanding job and hope she can cat-sit again for us!”
“Ava was so great with my cat! She was super communicative and I can tell she really cares about taking care of animals:) My cat had a great time and I'm super grateful for her flexibility & dedication. Thank you Ava!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was a sophomore in high school, graduated in 2019. I volunteered and then became a worker at a groomer near me. Loved my job, and have cared for many animals since. Currently do not have a job, so I have a free schedule and nothing but love to give to the fur babies, including cats of course. I am very respectful to others homes and belongings. I only want to care for the animals, very trustworthy. If staying at my home, I am sure to take them out every hour, hour in a half unless given specific details. They have their free roam, I also have a pretty decent sized screen in back porch that they can run around a little in.
About: With a passion for providing exceptional care, I offer personalized services to ensure your cat receives the love and attention they deserve. From regular feeding and playtime to grooming and medication administration, I am committed to creating a safe and comfortable environment for your beloved pet. I have my very own cat whom I adopted years ago and I hold her dearly in my heart, just like I will with your fur baby. With me, your cat will be in caring hands, allowing you to have peace of mind while you're away.
About: My parents still love telling the story of when they told me I was going to have a baby brother. I looked them straight in the face and said, “I don’t want a human, I want a puppy!” Safe to say not long after, I got my very first dog, Bella, when I was four years old. From that moment on, Bella was my best friend. We grew up together, and wherever I went, she was right beside me. She taught me what unconditional love, patience, and responsibility look like. After an incredible 15 years together, I had to say goodbye to my sweet girl, but the love she gave me is the reason I care so deeply about every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy, sticking to a senior dog’s routine, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were part of my own family. Although I work full-time, pet care fits naturally into my routine. I make time before and after work for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. On my days off, I have even more flexibility for longer visits, exercise, and quality time. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I always make it a priority to stick to their normal routine and provide reliable, loving care while their owners are away. I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I do my best to keep things as consistent as possible. Before caring for your pet, I’ll make sure I understand their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, medications (if any), favorite toys, and any quirks or preferences they have. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I’ll provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, potty breaks, fresh water, and attention while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they’ll receive lots of attention and affection. I always prioritize their safety, monitor them closely, and make sure they feel relaxed and at home. My goal is for every pet to feel loved, secure, and well cared for until they’re back with their family.
“Madison exceeded all expectations! Our regular pet sitter had an unexpected emergency right before we left on a two week trip, the longest we’ve ever been away from our two fur babies. Needless to say we were devastated and left scrambling to find a reliable and trustworthy substitution. Madison did a meet and greet beforehand to explain her qualifications, answered any questions we had, and made sure to thoroughly understand the expectations of what we needed done to ensure peace of mind for us. She provided extensive details for us everyday and sent cute pictures of our animals so we could get a glimpse of how they were faring while we were away. She really takes the time to get to know the animals and it is reflected in her outstanding work ethic how much she truly cares. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone needing a sitter. Thank you Madison for providing excellent care for our babies, you made our vacation that much more enjoyable knowing there was once less thing to worry about back home!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Whitehead
About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
“Stephanie is fabulous. This was our 1st Rover experience. She made it a joy! She greeted us warmly and professionally as we drove into her driveway. She brought us into her home showing us where our Great Pyrenees would be, asked if she was allowed to have treats, about feeding her, as well as special needs. Recognizing she is a senior dog, she gave Stella an opportunity to explore before she slowly introduced her to the others she was caring for. We could enjoy our site seeing day out with complete confidence stella would be great. We received videos and pics off and on all day. Thank u Stephanie for making our visit so very special!”
“I travelled from Colorado to Tennessee with my dog, Zephyr. Carrie took care of Zephyr while I attended Adult Drum Camp. At first, I was very nervous about leaving “my girl” with a “stranger.” Carrie was absolutely WONDERFUL, understanding and kind. She sent a bunch of photos the first couple days until I was feeling better. Zephyr adored her. Wagging her nubbins of a tail when I dropped her off each day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Erika Leigh and Erik are simply the best! As first-time dog owners, leaving our very loved 2-year-old Lab, Ruger, was a huge step for us. He has never been left with a sitter or alone for more than a few hours. He’s truly our family sidekick and goes almost everywhere with us. We had an all-day family event to attend and decided it would be best to leave him with a sitter for the day. Since it was a last-minute need, we were so grateful to find Erika Leigh and Erik on Rover. They were incredibly accommodating and graciously welcomed us to bring Ruger over beforehand so he could meet them, explore their home, and so they could answer all of our questions. From the beginning, their communication was outstanding. They responded quickly before our booking and kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos of Ruger having a great time. Those updates gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our family event without worrying about him. It was clear that Ruger was well cared for and treated like one of their own. We couldn’t have asked for a better first sitter experience and would not hesitate to book with Erika Leigh and Erik again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitters!”
About: I absolutely LOVE animals. I have had dogs most of my life, and became a cat mom over 10 years ago. They are more than just pets - they’re family! I will treat your loved fur one like my own. I have experience giving dogs oral medications and giving cats both oral medications and injections (insulin). I work a hybrid schedule so my days are super flexible! I can be flexible with timing as long as I have sufficient notice. I am happy to accommodate your needs to the best of my ability. I want to assimilate your fur baby’s routine to the best of my ability! I will follow your instructions with any specific guidelines or requests. I am not afraid to ask clarifying questions.
About: I have 4 dogs that are my kids. I am a stay at home dog mom. Your dog will be my dog while in my care. 3 are small and 1 medium sized. They are all fixed, UTD on shots and heart worm. All adopted from different states and shelters. They are between the ages of 10 and 12. They are only crated if I go out for an extended period of time. We live on a half acre, fully fenced back yard (5 ft aluminum with puppy pickets). They can get on the furniture if they want and I have dog beds throughout the house. My dogs get on very well with other dogs, and are accustomed to other dogs coming into the house. Over the last couple of years I have hosted numerous dogs of different breeds, ages and sizes. I have numerous repeat customers. I also have other apps that I use for sitting, and do privately. I have fostered various dogs for Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in the past and I have helped and run adoption events at Petco for about a year for Simpson County Animal Shelter/Friends of the Shelter in Franklin KY. I am a stay at home dog mom. I can pet sit any time of the day or week, for just a few hours, a day or overnights. I only leave the house to go to the store or run a few errands. Typically not out for extended periods. If I am dog sitting, I prefer to be at home as often as possible. I am always around my dogs. I have dog beds in all areas of the house. I keep an eye on them when they go outside. I play with them regularly. When I get a new foster dog, I usually will keep them leashed for a little while until they get acclimated and used to the other dogs. You, my customer are more than welcome to come into my house and yard and meet myself, and my dogs.
“Jennifer and Michael are fabulous and very accommodating with my schedule. They treat Mack like one of their own and part of the family. I would highly recommend them!”
About: Hi! Before moving to Tennessee, I lived at a 35-dog professional racing kennel on the North Shore of Minnesota. Needless to say, I am passionate about dogs, and critters of all kinds for that matter! I am well-versed in medication delivery, first-aid, temperamental pets, unique feeding preferences, and just about anything else you could throw at me. I work from home with flexible hours! I am a notorious early bird and I’m more than happy to spend as much time as possible with your baby. I am eager to learn your exact care preferences to make sure your pet barely notices you’re gone! As the owner of two incredibly high-energy breeds, I believe that a tired pooch is a happy one. I would love nothing more than to make sure your baby has fetched, walked, and played to their heart’s desire.
“We are new to the area and I'm glad we found Jackie. She was a great help with our dogs and I could tell they had a great time with Jackie and family. Jackie was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures during stay. I particularly liked that Jackie has a fenced in yard where the dogs can roam free outside. I'd definitely recommend Jackie and plan to book again in the future.”
About: I grew up with a variety of animals and have raised several dogs from puppies. I’ve adopted difficult dogs that were set to be put down and worked with them to become amazing family members. Big dogs are my specialty. I work from home most of the week so I can make it out to walk your pups on my breaks or morning and evening. I can also pet sit in your home in the evenings and on weekends. My wife and I work as a team. She is a pet groomer and loves animals of all kinds. Walks, playing, feeding, giving them all them loves they could ask for. Need a bath or nail trim? We can also discuss things like that.
“Katie is amazing! She made my pups feel so loved, they came home happy and tired from having such a blast! They wanted to stay longer to keep playing! She treats them like family and it made me feel at ease knowing that she takes care of them the way I do.”
“Melissa was pleasant, caring and watched our senior puppy Grover for about four hours so we could go to a medical appointment. Grover has separation anxiety and he's blind and partially deaf and Melissa cared for him well. We will definitely use again when the need arises.”
About: Every dog is different, and I believe their care should be too. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog is playful, laid back, anxious, a puppy, or a senior, I’m happy to adjust my care to fit their individual needs. I understand that leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, and I do everything I can to make the experience comfortable for both you and your dog. Whether you have a calm companion or a high-energy working breed that thrives on activity and engagement, I’m happy to tailor my care to fit their individual needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. I never assume unfamiliar dogs will get along simply because they’re friendly. Introductions are done slowly, interactions are always supervised, and I’m happy to separate dogs whenever needed. Every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and respected during their stay.
“Bruno had his rabies booster, and he needed to be taking care and rest. Kaitlyn was so kind and let him sleep on her bed! I got pictures (good quality photos) and she answer my questions when I texted her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed and size since I was 4 years old. My kids also really enjoy picking up the dog poop while we are on walks (hey, I’ll take that as a win!) part of the money goes to them for being the best helpers. My husband works full time from home. Someone is always home and available to take care of your pet. We have sports on Saturday morning where we are gone for 3 hours, other than that we are typically home We do not have a fenced yard, but we have 3 kids who love taking the animals out with us and helping with walks. I am the one who holds the leash, they enjoy running, picking up after the animals, throwing toys with them to play fetch.

About: I’m excited to help look after your pets. I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and have fostered tiny kittens.

It is a very safe neighborhood with lots of areas to go on a nice walk!
About: Growing up on a farm, I was taught to care for animals at a young age. From feeding, bathing, exercising, basic wound care, grooming, etc. I have experience with many types of animals including: dogs, cats, horses, snakes, birds, fish, hamsters, etc. I also work well with “hard to tame” pets. Animals with anxiety, trauma responses, or just bad attitudes are my forte. I have trained multiple dogs alongside support care animals. Let’s see what your furry friend can do! I make my own schedule. I own my own businesses that need little oversight. Let me know when I’m needed and I’ll do my best to make it work! I have a large yard, not yet fenced. Plenty of trees if you have you pup tie-out trained. I also have multiple sized crates, an outdoor pen, and a small fenced in run about area adjacent.

Your fur baby will love playing around in the fenced in yard, going on walks or whatever else you need me to do . I am available to watch your pet and take them out for play time and potty breaks as much as you need me too . Just let me know !

About: As a Rover Dog Caregiver, I am committed to providing exceptional care for your beloved pets. With a background in veterinary technology and a passion for animals, I ensure that your furry companions receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each dog, creating a safe and comfortable environment for them to thrive in. With me, you can rest assured that your dogs are in loving and capable hands. I often volunteer at dog sanctuaries with disabled and senior dogs. And I have one puppy and one adult (both female) of my very own!! I also have a female cat I adopted 5 years ago!! I’ve cared for various small animals and reptiles also. I am an upcoming freshman in a Veterinary Technology program. I’m currently working part-time and there is never “not enough time” to care for pets!! Everyday I take time out of my day from my dogs to enjoy my company. There is no excuse for neglect! Although I do not have a fenced home I have a LOT of yard space and my neighborhood is perfect for dog walks. I also live 5 minutes away from a trusted dog park. Just tell me what I can do to best care for YOUR animal since not all dogs/cats are the same.
About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was a sophomore in high school, graduated in 2019. I volunteered and then became a worker at a groomer near me.

About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.
About: I have had several dogs and other animals throughout my life. My experience includes full time care of puppies and older dogs. I’m here to treat each animal as if they are my own and to take care of them as their owners wish! I’m flexible and will be so happy to watch after any pups while their owners are out. I do have a Labrador retriever mix that keeps me busy. I am happy to get out, go on walks and travel to different areas to make sure all pups have fun! I am very open and am here to help out with any needs of the pets or owners. It will be a pleasure to look after your animals and to help you out as you travel, work and go on outings.

Whether it’s a cuddly cat, or energetic dog, I tailor the approach to suit their unique needs, providing you with peace of mind while you’re away. As the owner of a 3 year old rambunctious goldendoodle and a kitty myself I make sure to treat your furry friends as my own. After all, your pets aren’t just animals – they’re cherished family members, and their happiness and well-being are my top priority. I’m currently working full time, however I have every Saturday,Sunday, and Monday off. I have open availability all 3 days. I could also possibly be available week nights if a drop in is needed. I also have open availability for house sitting including week nights upon request. As a pet owner myself to a goldendoodle and 3 cats I prefer to watch clients pets in their own home. I find that pets tend to tolerate a familiar setting, especially in possible stressful situations like their owner being away.

About: I’ve grown up with family pets and have had a handful of my own. Dogs are the way to my heart but I have experiences with cats and even farm animals too. I am fortunate to be in charge of my schedule and am somewhat flexible most days. I can come/go as needed for the most part in the Cool Springs area anytime during my work week hours (Tues- Sat 9-4) and of course anytime outside of that I can travel wherever needed. I have a large fenced in yard perfect for the pups to play. I have a young and playful mini wienie and an older laid back black lab (former service dog).

“Amanda was so helpful in watching our two pups on fairly short notice. She was very welcoming and gave tremendous attention to both pups. We highly recommend Amanda for all your dog watching needs and we will definitely use Amanda again and again. I can guarantee you will not be disappointed!”
“Pam was absolutely wonderful and took the best care of our 11-year old Frenchie. She was so loving and kind, and was so patient with her as she’s not the easiest dog! She was great at communicating and sending us updates and photos. Absolutely recommend Pam and her wonderful family and we hope to book again with her in the future!”
“I’ll keep it simple: I’m pretty sure our Great Pyrenees is sad he had to come home. Ha! Matt and Candice were incredible hosts for him. Very excited that we met them and hope it works out again in the future.”
“Alexander was amazing! He gave frequent updates, lots of pictures and my golden, Scout had a blast with his golden, Archie! Will definitely use him again in the future!”
“Serenity has been an incredible dog sitter for our senior dog, Molly. She watches her for extended periods and always provides the most loving, safe, and comfortable environment while we’re away. Molly has elderly-dog needs, and Serenity is so patient, attentive, and accommodating to them. It gives us such peace of mind knowing Molly is so well cared for and genuinely loved in our absence. We are beyond thankful for Serenity and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet care!”
“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“Michelle was fantastic! She has kept my pups on several occasions, and they were almost always on super short notice, but she came through every time. I have an elderly dog who has had multiple knee operations, that can be very anxious in new environments, and a husky that can be more than a handful at times, but Michelle is amazing and is able to meet their individual needs beyond what anyone could expect from a dog sitter. She is organized and professional and you can tell right off the bat how much she cares for all of the dogs that she cares for. I am so thankful to have her to take care of my pups when I can’t. I would highly recommend to anyone needing a sitter.”
“Trish is a very kind host and did great with our 1 year old Australian Shepherd. She has a great space downstairs where she's able to watch dogs, and I felt great leaving our dog with her. Our dog, Willow, loved her too! Highly recommend booking Trish!”
“I couldn’t be more thankful for Isabell and her lovely family! They were incredibly flexible and accommodating when I needed a dog sitter for my dog, Phoebe, on short notice. Their communication was excellent throughout, keeping me updated and giving me peace of mind. Phoebe had an amazing time at their place and came back happy and well-cared for. Highly recommend Isabell to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Cody was great. He’s very welcoming from the beginning which eased the transition at first. He provided daily updates. I was at ease knowing my pup was with him. Highly recommend! He kept my doggy for more than a week.”
“this is the first time Roo has ever stayed with anyone other than my parents overnight. she did wonderful and I know it was because tifaney made her feel right at home. she also sent update photos which were perfect to ease my mind. definitely recommend ❤️”
“Heather was amazing with our dog while we were on vacation! He took to her right away and loved spending time in her great outdoor space. She kept us updated with videos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He had a wonderful time. We’d definitely trust Heather to watch him again!”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful about communicating and sending updates about my dog. I feel confident she was well loved and was taken to the dog park to get her energy out. It was a relief to my husband and I knowing she was having fun and she was safe while we were on vacation.”
“Great place to let your dogs stay and play. They kept my large dog overnight and took him on a couple of walks and gave him lots of outside play with a couple of other dogs. They stayed with him the whole time and sent pics and messages throughout the stay. When I picked him up he was happy and slept in the backseat the whole way home. Strongly recommend using them if nearby they are a wonderful couple that are great with dogs.”
