“Angel did an amazing job watching our dog Natsu! She sent pictures and gave regular updates on how he was doing. She responded quickly when I sent messages to her. Natsu was happy and content during his stay. We could not be more happy with the care she provided him while we were gone. We will definitely look for her the next time we are going out of town for Natsu.”
“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”
“Brianne was absolutely TERRIFIC. She was kind, friendly, easy to reach, flexible with my schedule, and took great care of Scotty. There is a reason she has so many good reviews and I would gladly give her 10 stars if i could. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again”
“Yvonne took great care of my Great Pyrenees over the holidays. It was my first time using Rover and leaving him at someone’s house. She helped me feel comfortable and she is quick to respond to messages. She also sent great pictures so I could see he was happy. My dog absolutely loved playing with her lab, Luna. I will not hesitate to leave my pup with Yvonne again!”
“Excellent experience. She took great care of Milah and was very kind from the very beginning. She kept me updated on how Milah was doing, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Milah seemed very calm, comfortable, and well cared for. You can tell she gave her lots of love and attention. I would definitely leave Milah with her again and highly recommend her. 🐾”
“Our pup stayed with Ann for 12 days over the holidays and was absolutely AMAZING. She kindly even picked up and dropped off Ollie, which I was so grateful for. She gave our girl lots of love and attention and sent daily updates with photos. Ollie doesn’t leave the house much, so Ann made sure she was comfortable and happy. By the end of the stay, she was like a part of their family. I’m so glad to have found someone that I can come back to for future pet sitting!”
“Ericka and Robert were very friendly and welcoming! I could tell that Callie and Evan were in great hands when we dropped them off as they warmed up almost immediately!”
“Destiny was great! My dog enjoyed his relaxing Christmas with other doggie pals. Destiny sent great pictures and was able to work with our schedule. Thanks again!”
“INCREDIBLE ROVER MAMA 🐾 my baby was cared for like another member of the family! Daily and frequent updates I felt like I was always in the loop! This was my first attempt at using Rover after hearing many other scary stories I am grateful to Susan and her family for giving me a positive story to share but most importantly for giving my boy a safe and happy environment that accommodated his quirks and anxieties! Already have dates im ready to block out for the rest of the year! Truly happy and satisfied! Rhaegar approved 🐾”
“This was our first time using rover and leaving our dog with a stranger. Ashley made it easy and comfortable to not only not worry about him but also to leave him with her again in the future.”
“Kathleen took such good care of Brownee! Brownee came back home well fed and happy. She definitely got comfortable at Kathleen’s and I’m happy for it. Once again, Kathleen shared updates and pictures throughout the stay, and when I picked Brownee up, Kathleen gave a thorough overview of all happenings. I really appreciate it.”

I was always updated with texts and pictures! I was enjoying my with out being worried about them. Thank you so much for caring for Rocco and coco! 100% recommended!”
“We had the best experience with Bridgette while she watched our Yorkie for five days. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. She was kind, attentive, and treated him like he was part of her own family. We loved getting regular updates and photos—he always looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She followed all of his routines perfectly and even gave him a little extra TLC when he was missing us. When we picked him up, he was his same cheerful self, which tells you everything. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us and we have already booked with her again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving dog sitter!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Christina! She took amazing care of Maggie and Willow — our two crazy golden retrievers — and treated them like they were her own. Managing two energetic goldens is no small task, but Christina handled their personalities, energy, and chaos with so much love, patience, and care. One of our favorite parts was that she sent photos every single day, which gave us so much comfort and peace of mind while we were away. Seeing our girls happy, relaxed, and loved made all the difference! We are so grateful for the care she gave Maggie and Willow and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and truly amazing dog sitter! 🐾❤️”
About: Hi! I’m Sophie, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. ❤️ I grew up helping at my aunt’s pet hotel starting when I was 13 years old, and that’s where my love for caring for animals truly began. Now at 19, I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently work at Three Bark Pet Hotel in Alvarado, where I care for a designated room of up to 10 dogs each day and also help care for cats when needed. My responsibilities include feeding on schedule, making sure every pet always has fresh water, taking them on potty breaks and walks, supervising playtime, cleaning their rooms, bathing them when necessary, and making sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy throughout the day. 🐕🐈 The biggest reason I love this job is because every pet has their own unique personality. I genuinely get excited every time I meet a new dog or cat, and I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and love while their family is away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were one of my own. 💕 Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply relax, I’ll always meet them where they’re most comfortable and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve. 🐾 Pet care is already a huge part of my everyday life! Between working at Three Bark Pet Hotel and being a full-time college student, I’ve learned how important consistency, responsibility, and communication are.✨ I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, potty breaks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. ❤️ I’ll also send frequent updates and photos because I know how comforting it is to know your furry family member is happy while you’re away. 📸🐾 Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities. ❤️ I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs before caring for them. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, keeping their space clean, giving medication if needed, or simply spending quality time with them, I’ll always treat your pet with the same patience, love, and respect that I give my own. 🌸✨ I understand that trusting someone with your pet can be stressful. That’s why I believe communication is so important. I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit so you can relax knowing your pet is receiving genuine care and attention. 🐶🐱💕

“Hannah is doing an outstanding job taking care of Stanley for me while im away.. She is very responsible, she gives prompt updates and gives my boy lots of loving when she's there! I highly recommended Hannah and will continue to use her.”
“Alicia was amazing! She took such great care of my kitties while I was away, and I came home to a clean house and even a made bed. It was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“I definitely recommend Jynna! She is reliable, communicative, and attentive, and took wonderful care of my two cats. I came home to happy cats and felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I will definitely hire Jynna again.”
“Jessica did a great job, even going above and beyond trying to trouble shoot our litter robot via text with us, setting up an emergency litter box, and sweeping the chaos the kitties left the following day. We appreciate her service!”
“Melissa did a great job checking in on my bunnies! It was her first time watching over Rabbits but she was perfect for the job! She was very observant, communicative and helpful! I was able to enjoy my vacation and quickly check in and see that everything was going great! :)”
“Lauryn was absolutely amazing with our cats while we were on vacation! She followed every instruction perfectly, sent us regular photo updates, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. The biggest surprise was that she even won over our super shy girl, who usually hides from everyone. Seeing her come out for Lauryn and enjoy the attention meant so much to us. It’s obvious Lauryn truly loves animals and treats them like they’re her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be using her every time we travel. Highly recommend!”
“I’m a helicopter mom to my fur babies, but Nidia makes it so easy for me to actually relax and enjoy myself while I’m away from home. She is really great about my cats’ routines and always is mindful of my instructions for their care, which I really appreciate! She’s also punctual, reliable and communicative, which are all big pluses especially if I’m far from home. My cats also love her, and are very comfortable around her. Nidia also maintains cleanliness in the house, takes in my packages, etc. all bonuses! Honestly I am SO glad I found her to take care of my cats while I’m away, because I actually am able to focus on my work or vacation and not worry about how my cats are doing or if they’re well taken care of. She’s already watched them 3 times for me, in a span of less than 6 months and I know that I will be using her services every time when I’m away. If you’re on the fence about getting a sitter, here’s your sign to trust Nidia. She is the best!”
About: I’ve had my own cat for 5 years! we rescued him off the side of the road when he was just a kitten. We fed him formula through a syringe till he was able to eat and drink on his own. I’ve also had experience feeding my cat medicine. I have cleaned litter boxes and washed them before.
“Malexy did a fantastic job watching our two cats for a week! She was extremely responsive and prompt which really made us feel comfortable while out of town. She went above and beyond with her attention to detail and kept us well informed. We will definitely book again!”
About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart. 🤍 I currently have three cats of my own, so I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Some are playful and social, while others prefer quiet spaces and a little extra patience. I love getting to know each cat for who they are and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also work at Three Bark Pet Hotel in Alvarado, where I help care for cats alongside my daily responsibilities with dogs. 🐾 I make sure every cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, a clean and cozy space, and plenty of love and attention based on their individual needs. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or simply have someone nearby, I’ll happily follow their routine and respect their boundaries. I know leaving your cat with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to make the experience as easy as possible for both you and your pet. 💕 I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. 📸🐈

“Becky is the Best I highly recommend. My Hank knows exactly who I am talking about when I say her name and his friends. He is waiting at door to go soon as I ask if he wants to see ecky. When I come to get him before I knock he knows it's me and is alking at the door. Great sitter.”

About: I have been the go to person to watch my friend's dogs throughout my 13 years in the military.

I also have 2 large female (spayed) dogs to keep your dog(s) company. If they need to be crated I can accommodate that as well. Please let me know if your dog needs any medications or special needs.

About: I have grown up with pets of all kinds. It wasn’t a farm but felt like it. From dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, pigs and a rabbit, I have had them all. I grew up in the country, lived in the city for 6 years, and now back to the country. Between my husband and I, we have 6 kids and 3 dogs. The kids are grown so I have more than enough time and love for your pets. I know how stressful it can be to leave you animals even for a few days. I want someone that will love them and treat them like their own. Let me be that peace of mind for you. I currently do DoorDash during the day, so I am available anytime to visit your pets. Whatever you need from potty breaks to belly rubs. I would need to know any medications or special care for your pets. I’m available to feed, play, let your pets out when needed. We can go for walks or just stay in.
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life including a pet rat. For some reason animals tend to like me and I like them as well. I have had to put down three pets in the last two years, very hard thing to do. I had 4 dogs and two cats, sadly down to one each. I’m retired and available anytime during the day. If there are some odd hours it can be discussed. If you pet needs me to walk them and or clean a litter box that will be no problem. I will be glad to send photos during my visit if needed. My yard is fully fenced with rod iron fencing, if the dog is small they might get out but doubtful. I prefer not to keep your pet at my house at this time.
About: I have rescued several dogs over the years from shelters and the SPCA. I also foster dogs from FWACC. Outside of my love for animals, I am also a fitness enthusiast, and believe our pets health is just as important as ours. I enjoy running and walking and I figure I can help get a pet get in better shape by proving him or her with exercise daily. I am currently working fewer hours during the holidays and spending more time at home and have some time to care for others pets while they travel or visit family. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pet to roam around and play with my dogs. I love sending texts and pictures of what your pups are doing so you know they’re in good hands.
“Since this was our first time with a dog sitter, I was nervous how my fur baby will be without us around. Yvonne was able to send updates and pics of Kazu. He had so much fun he didn’t want to get in the car to go home. Thank you so much Yvonne for the excellent care of Kazu and making our first experience with Rover memorable!”

When I picked her up she was a lot more confident and I could tell she had a fun time. Great stay and we will book doggy day care again for sure.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, literally since the day I was born. My experience spans dogs, cats, birds, horses, donkeys, goats, and rabbits, giving me a deep understanding of animals with very different personalities, needs, and routines. I began fostering animals at 12 years old alongside my mom, helping care for them and place them into loving forever homes. My first job was as an in home pet sitter, and I immediately fell in love with providing animals the consistent care, attention, and comfort they need while their families are away. For over 10 years, I managed a farm, which taught me how to confidently handle multiple animals at once, follow detailed care routines, and stay calm, observant, and organized in dynamic environments. While I have years of hands on experience, my love and respect for animals has always come first. As a pet parent myself, I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your pets in someone else’s care. Because of that, I’m intentional about clear communication, regular updates, and treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently working remote so my schedule always is very flexible. I can provide multiple potty breaks through out the day and I also enjoy taking pets on a mid day walk. I have a fenced in yard, two friendly dogs and a quiet neighborhood perfect for our daily walks. Crating is also available per your request.
About: I have had a love for dogs all my life. Last couple of years I have worked with dog rescues as a foster, that is how I found my dog. While working with the organization I took some classes with a dog training. I work from home but at times I do have to make trips outside of the house. I can normally plan my trips outside of the home. I have fenced in yard and crate for dogs that are custom to using one. I have 1 dog, foster gone wrong. I only have 1 dog so I can foster when needed.
About: I grew up with dogs of all different sizes and breeds along with the sweetest cats. I showered them all with love and affection as well as playing and walking the dogs. I am available all day and every day! I can take care of your little or big fur babies anytime and provide the attention and care needed! I have a fenced yard with four dogs that love to run around and play in. They love to chase each other around and are quite talkative to one another!
About: I've been pet-sitting professionally for people since 2017. I've had cats my entire life, dogs for almost as long, and I'm happy to take care of animals with special needs! I easily bond with most pets, and love smaller life as well! Currently have a free schedule, I'm available most hours to care for your furever friend. As long as you are there for the initial introductions to your pet I'm happy to show up when you need me to. I will keep to a schedule for your pets, if you have them crated at night or if they sleep with you I'm flexible on either arrangement. Happy to take dogs on neighborhood walks and play fetch.
About: I have over 6 years of experience with professional in-home pet care, along with a lifetime of caring for my own dogs. I am also certified through the PPCA! I understand how important it is to give your pets the same love and attention I give my own! I truly enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship. My goal is to be a little part of your family and provide that peace of mind while you are away! Pet care is my full time job! My husband is home for my fur babies every night and morning if I need to be at overnights. And I make sure I have time to check in on my babies during the day if have a full day! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide plenty of attention through walks, playtime, and companionship, always practicing proper leash etiquette and respecting feeding or medication instructions. I create a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, whether they’re playful, need a little extra patience, or are in delicate stages of life, so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: I have 3 dogs and one cat of my own! I’ve had two of the dogs since they were puppies, and my cat since he was a kitten. I’ve also pet sit for my neighbors many times! My three dogs are all chihuahuas, but i’ve had experience with bigger dogs too. I am currently working part time, but I’m planning on going full time with pet sitting! Once summer is over I will be going to school but early in the morning, from around 8 to 12. So I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets ! I will not bring your pets to my own home, because my dogs are not very friendly to other pets. I will be able to go to your home and take care of your pet(s) there!
About: I have taken care of animals from a young age, we have always had family pets from dogs to cats, lizards, fish, rescues etc. and my grandparents had farm animals like horses pigs, chickens and goats that I was around from a young age also. I have always cared for our family pets as well as neighbors, friends, and family throughout the years. I typically house sit when watching the animals also and can take care of things like collecting mail and packages, etc. I currently work part time form home so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to care for animals. I also enjoy going outside so don't mind taking dogs on walks etc. I have a 1 acre fenced in backyard with lots of grass and trees for animals to play. I also have an outdoor enclosed fence about 8x10 that I can use to separate dogs if needed. And I have about a 5x8 fully enclosed outdoor catio as well. I have plenty of space inside the home to let animals rest as well as a garage if it is too hot during the day.
About: I have taken care of pets for years, including small dogs and very large dogs, most of them energetic. Neighbors, friends, and family have all relied on me to feed, watch, and love their pets! I’m currently a college student, so my hours are pretty flexible. I have lots of time to spend with the pets and with make sure they’re a priority! I love animals a whole lot, so I’m pretty willing to do anything. Usually I play a lot with pets and walk dogs once a day, although I can do so more often.

About: I have worked in a well renowned and amazing shelter & animal rescue (no kill shelter) for 5 years. I’ve got plenty of experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also got certifications in fear free animal training, along with helping train many dogs for Leader dogs for the blind. I do have a dog of my own that is super good with other dogs, and cats. He’s a very chill guy. Please make sure that your dog is also good with other dogs if you are booking a boarding with me please, I’d greatly appreciate it! I’m recently moved to the area, and currently working part time. So I have a lot of extra free time, my time is very flexible. I consider animals family, so taking care of them properly how their family ask is very important in my eyes. So taking care of them will be followed directly as stated. 😊
About: Hi! I’m Sophie, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. ❤️ I grew up helping at my aunt’s pet hotel starting when I was 13 years old, and that’s where my love for caring for animals truly began. Now at 19, I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently work at Three Bark Pet Hotel in Alvarado, where I care for a designated room of up to 10 dogs each day and also help care for cats when needed. My responsibilities include feeding on schedule, making sure every pet always has fresh water, taking them on potty breaks and walks, supervising playtime, cleaning their rooms, bathing them when necessary, and making sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy throughout the day. 🐕🐈 The biggest reason I love this job is because every pet has their own unique personality. I genuinely get excited every time I meet a new dog or cat, and I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and love while their family is away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were one of my own. 💕 Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply relax, I’ll always meet them where they’re most comfortable and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve. 🐾 Pet care is already a huge part of my everyday life! Between working at Three Bark Pet Hotel and being a full-time college student, I’ve learned how important consistency, responsibility, and communication are.✨ I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, potty breaks, fresh food and water, and lots of love. ❤️ I’ll also send frequent updates and photos because I know how comforting it is to know your furry family member is happy while you’re away. 📸🐾 Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities. ❤️ I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs before caring for them. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, keeping their space clean, giving medication if needed, or simply spending quality time with them, I’ll always treat your pet with the same patience, love, and respect that I give my own. 🌸✨ I understand that trusting someone with your pet can be stressful. That’s why I believe communication is so important. I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit so you can relax knowing your pet is receiving genuine care and attention. 🐶🐱💕
About: Howdy – I’m Nidia, and I love caring for every pet imaginable (so long as they’re not deadly 😅.) I’m someone you can trust to take top-notch care of your furry friend. You can sit back and relax knowing that like Allstate, they’re in good hands. I guarantee they’ll be fed on time, tuckered out post-walk, and fully engaged in playtime. Some people have called me a pet whisperer…I have yet to prove them wrong. I hope to connect with y’all very soon! I can drop-in several times a day or stay at your home to help your pets maintain their normal routine. I will do everything I can to work around you and your pet’s schedule. I’m available to cater to their every need from 6 am to 9 pm daily. I can/do administer oral or nasal medication to pets, schedule ample cuddle and play time, and listen to their needs. I always keep owners in the loop sending multiple pictures every visit and follow instructions down to the letter.
About: Hi! My name is Ethan, and I’m a lifelong animal caregiver raised in a pet care home. My family has owned and operated a pet sitting business since 2008. I am experienced with both large and small breeds, hyper and anxious pets, and all ages from puppy to seniors. I’m pet CPR trained. My focus is on cultivating a calm, safe, and fun environment that maintains routine and builds trust. I’m currently between full-time roles and offering a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m excited to dedicate this time to caring for pets and giving them the attention they deserve! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my highest priorities. As a pet parent to three dogs and three cats, I understand that every animal has unique needs and daily routines. I’ll follow your care instructions closely to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible, providing dependable care and plenty of love and attention every step of the way.
About: I’ve been helping take care of dogs for about 5 years. Most my experience comes from taking care of family friends and neighbors pets while they’ve been out of town. While taking care of them I’ve had to feed them, go on walks, playtime, refresh water, and make sure their pets are happy and comfortable. I know every dog is different so I try to stick to their routine and give them lots of attention and pets as they can get sad when their owners are away. I really enjoy being around dogs, and I’ll treat them like my own! I’m pretty flexible and do my best to work around your schedule. I’ll make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need, whether that’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I’m happy to communicate and send updates so you know how they’re doing. I know leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, so I’ll always treat them like they’re my own. I’ll follow any instructions you leave, stick to their normal routine, and make sure they always have fresh water, meals on time, and lots of attention. I’ll also send updates and pictures so you can relax knowing they’re doing well.
“Karly is great! Super responsive, provided very thorough report cards, and my boys really enjoyed their walks with her. Karly was flexible and available one night for an unscheduled, last minute drop-in. Puppy saver!”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs in the home and became the local animal care taker. From horses, to cats, to chickens and dogs I did it all. I then moved on to have 4 children and excited to show them what it looks like to care for animals of all types! I have a heart for taking care of the ones around me and would love to care for your animal as if they were my own. I have cared for puppies and kittens and took care of my own dog as she grew old and eventual passed. We only board one families dogs at a time to be able to give the best care possible. We are a homeschooling family and would love to use this as a time to get out and walk and spend some time loving on animals as we havent been able to get one of our own yet. We have a daughter who dedicate every waking moment to any animal we care for! We have a large yard to run and play and if we are at your home or ours we will follow any instructions to make sure your loved one is well cared for.
About: As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to leave your pup in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where you can feel completely at ease. I offer a smoke-free home with a spacious yard where your dog can explore, play, and relax comfortably. I’m a proud dog mom to two very sweet pups — Thor, my 3-year-old labradoodle and gentle giant, and Bowzer, my 10-year-old cockapoo couch potato. Thor is playful, crate-trained, and almost always carrying one of his toys around. Bowzer is calm, affectionate, and happiest curled up on the couch — and yes, I do allow pups on the couch 😊 Bowzy loves sharing his spot, and Thor is usually nearby with his toys and ready for cuddles. I believe communication is key, especially when your dog is in someone else’s care. During your pup’s stay, I’ll send regular updates along with photos and videos so you can relax knowing they’re happy and in good hands. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I only board one family’s dog at a time. This allows your pup to acclimate calmly with my dogs and ensures they receive my full attention. My goal is to provide a loving, safe, and cozy stay. I look forward to meeting you and your precious pup! I work from home three days a week and am in the office two days with limited hours, so I have a later start to my mornings and am typically home by 5pm. This allows for consistent potty breaks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Our mornings begin with a potty break in the yard followed by breakfast. In the evenings, the pups have dinner and we wind down with playtime, a walk around the neighborhood, or cozy couch time. If your pup follows a specific feeding, walking, or medication schedule, I’m more than happy to stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and at ease. I provide a calm, smoke-free home with plenty of indoor space and a yard for dogs to safely explore and play. We also enjoy neighborhood walks for extra exercise and fresh air. Thor is crate-trained and comfortable sleeping in his crate at night. Bowzer usually sleeps in his own bed or near me. I always follow what makes each dog feel most secure. If your pup prefers to be crated, sleeps in their own bed, or is used to sleeping near their people, I’m happy to accommodate their usual routine. If your dog requires a crate during their stay, I kindly ask that you provide their crate so they have something familiar and comfortable from home. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I only board one family’s dog at a time. I’ve found that dogs adjust best in a calm environment where they can acclimate at their own pace without the stress of multiple unfamiliar dogs. This allows me to give your pup my full attention and care.

“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”
“Brianne was absolutely TERRIFIC. She was kind, friendly, easy to reach, flexible with my schedule, and took great care of Scotty. There is a reason she has so many good reviews and I would gladly give her 10 stars if i could. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again”
“Yvonne took great care of my Great Pyrenees over the holidays. It was my first time using Rover and leaving him at someone’s house. She helped me feel comfortable and she is quick to respond to messages. She also sent great pictures so I could see he was happy. My dog absolutely loved playing with her lab, Luna. I will not hesitate to leave my pup with Yvonne again!”
“Excellent experience. She took great care of Milah and was very kind from the very beginning. She kept me updated on how Milah was doing, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Milah seemed very calm, comfortable, and well cared for. You can tell she gave her lots of love and attention. I would definitely leave Milah with her again and highly recommend her. 🐾”
“Our pup stayed with Ann for 12 days over the holidays and was absolutely AMAZING. She kindly even picked up and dropped off Ollie, which I was so grateful for. She gave our girl lots of love and attention and sent daily updates with photos. Ollie doesn’t leave the house much, so Ann made sure she was comfortable and happy. By the end of the stay, she was like a part of their family. I’m so glad to have found someone that I can come back to for future pet sitting!”
“Ericka and Robert were very friendly and welcoming! I could tell that Callie and Evan were in great hands when we dropped them off as they warmed up almost immediately!”
“INCREDIBLE ROVER MAMA 🐾 my baby was cared for like another member of the family! Daily and frequent updates I felt like I was always in the loop! This was my first attempt at using Rover after hearing many other scary stories I am grateful to Susan and her family for giving me a positive story to share but most importantly for giving my boy a safe and happy environment that accommodated his quirks and anxieties! Already have dates im ready to block out for the rest of the year! Truly happy and satisfied! Rhaegar approved 🐾”

“Excellent family to leave your dog. They not only took excellent care for Luna but they loved her all the time she was there. Luna was born deaf and at times can be a very nervous dog. Not only she relaxed the same day there but became friends with the other dogs in the house. I highly recommend Darren!”
“Keeley and her husband did a fantastic job taking care of my dog, Waco. They were attentive, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. Their own dog is very well behaved and kept Waco company the whole time, which I really appreciated. Keeley also kept me updated regularly on Waco’s well-being, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. They made sure Waco got plenty of walks and exercise too. I would definitely trust Keeley and her husband again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.”
