“We are so grateful to have trusted Dominique to watch over Sage. She was well cared for and entertained throughout her stay and Dominique was consistently updating us. Sage made some new friend's along the way and Dominique & her family even got her a present for her 4th birthday (which she LOVES!)... I highly recommend her, she's so awesome! We will be booking again!”

“Belinda did such an awesome job! She provided the meet and greet and she kept me updated quite often. She demonstrates a general love and concern for Penny, my pet Schnauzer. Her husband Brian also helped out so much. I would definitely trust Penny again with Belinda. I will wholeheartedly recommend you book with Belinda! Awesome job 🙏👍”

“They were absolutely amazing! They communicated well and checked in everyday to let me know how Nova was doing throughout her stay! As someone who usually plans vacations with the idea of bringing my dog with me I don’t usually have her boarded so I was very nervous but they were truly amazing and if I ever have to have her boarded again I’ll definitely be booking with them!”
“Cindy was excellent! She took such great care of our 1 yr old Portuguese water dog! She got her tons of excercise and sent plenty of pictures and videos to show us our furry family was well taken care of. She had a wonderful backyard for her to play in too! 10/10 recommend Cindy!”

“Gina took our dog Checo for a long weekend when we went out of town and we cannot be more happy! She and her family were incredible and made it feel like Checo was their own! Gina sent us tons of updates with photos and videos! Our dog had the best time playing with her dogs and getting all the love and pets and cuddles from Gina and her family! We will use Gina from here on out! Thank you Gina for everything”

“Norma was super nice and a great sitter. She communicated regularly with me. I got regular updates and photos about my pup. Maxie seemed super happy and healthy when she was picked up like she didn’t even miss us. Thank you Norma for caring for our pup so well. I would definitely book with Norma again.”

“Karimar ALWAYS goes above and beyond for our precious girl! We don’t go on vacation if she is not available. Always sending updates and always with a smile. Amazing service as always”


“Delelah is so sweet and has been keeping me in the loop the whole time! My dog had a great time with her and her pups. Definitely will be booking with her again! :)”

“Highly recommend using Debbie for any dog sitting needs! She was incredibly communicative and kept us updated with delightful pictures and videos. It was clear our dog was extremely well cared for and enjoying her time at Debbie’s!”

“We needed pet boarding last minute for a Christmas trip and Danielle helped us out and did an amazing job taking care of our fur baby! Our pup had never been away from us for more than a few hours and Danielle handled her separation anxiety like a pro! She was so sweet to our pup and kept us updated the entire time. She is the best and we will use her again next time we need someone to care for our doggie.”

“Lillian is truly AMAZING! Ollie loves her so much that he didn’t want to leave. She was very accommodating and even had a meet up before so Ollie could meet her. 10 out of 10 service. We will be using Lillian for now on. Thank you Lillian!!”

“Brittany went above and beyond to take care of my new puppy! I’m certain that my dog was well taken care the entire time I was gone. She was well fed and got lots and lots of playtime! The other unexpected thing was that Brittany sent me updated pictures of how she was doing while I was gone. Really kept me in the loop and made me feel comfortable leaving her there. Thank you so much, Brittany. I really really appreciate you. We will be back!❤️”
“I left my chocolate lab with Molli as we were passing through her town on our way to our vacation. She had availability just 2 days in advance which was super convenient for us! I received lots of pictures and updates of my dog doing fun things and looking super happy, comfortable, and relaxed. Very happy with the entire experience!”

“Ashley was great, including accommodating our desire for a meet and greet even though I had already booked a stay with her! Her experience in animal care aa a vet tech was very reassuring, especially that she was familiar with several of the meds our dog Niiki was on. And when I told her it was Stella's birthday during the middle of our trip, she gave Stella a birthday party complete with birthday cookie! Ashley accommodated our pickup time, even in the middle of her own family emergency. Ashley goes above and beyond. I have no reservations in recommending her.”

“Great place for our fur baby. Bobbye is really good on animals. We felt comfortable and had peace of mind while traveling. Leaving our dog with her was a good decision we made on our part. She had nice big yard for dogs to explore, play and do their business, and also good companies. We were so grateful we found Bobbye, we definitely be a repeat customer if we ever go for a trip again.”

“Paige took great care of our dog Maya. She sent us many pictures and Maya looked so happy in them. This was our first time using Rover and we definitely plan on using it again for future trips.”
“Ford was very well taken care of and cared for during his stay. I will definitely have to return Ford here again in the future, I greatly appreciate everything.”

“Janis did an awesome job of taking care of our dog while we were away on vacation! I was really nervous to leave him behind because he is an old dog who is partially blind and deaf and has health issues that require medication twice a day. Janis did a great job of putting my mind at ease and sent me pictures multiple times a day with updates on how he was doing. Our dog seemed to love staying with her and her sweet pups! We will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“She was absolutely wonderful and treated Beau like one of her own. We felt completely at ease knowing he was so loved and well cared for. We would 100% book with her again!”

“Megan was informative and helpful. Went above and beyond helping with a fire alarm that was faulty. She sent many pictures of our cat and was easy to reach.”

About: I've been around dogs since I was a child, and I see them as part of the family. I got my first dog when I was eleven, but our house grew and grew with multiple dogs, and I currently help care for my family's six dogs. In addition, my parents and I have fostered dogs together, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and backgrounds, including those who needed extra patience, structure, and reassurance while adjusting to new environments. I have years of experience dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors, including overnight stays, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving my full affection and attention. Through fostering, I learned how to read dog behavior, help dogs feel safe in unfamiliar situations, and learned to support basic routines and transitions. What sets me apart is how attentive I am to learning each pet's individual needs. I will always take the time to learn their routines, levels of energy, and their own personalities so they can feel safe, comfortable, and loved by me while their owners are away. I'm currently a part-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be very present and attentive to the pets I'm caring for. I'm able to plan my days around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins, so your pets will receive consistent care throughout the day. My top priorities are always to create a safe, trusting environment and to ensure a comfortable atmosphere. I make sure all pets feel secure, calm, and loved. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to maintain consistency as needed and possible. In a client's home, I treat the space with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I'm very mindful of my surroundings during walks. I also take the time to get to know each pet's personality so I know how to respond appropriately to their needs and comfort levels. Communication is key, so I always provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give pet parents peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where all pets feel comfortable and cared for, and each owner feels confident they've left their pets in good hands.

“This has been my 2nd time using Jackie and she's by far the absolute BEST and I absolutely ADORE her! I have 3 dogs. A senior, a 9 yr old and 1 yr old who is rambunctious as all get out and she is so gracious with them all. Definitely plan on using her again and again.... AND AGAIN 🤣”


“This is my first time using Rover. I was so skeptical at first but Madalyn is amazing! Django my doberman loved her and she gave me so many cute updates! I will definitely be using her again if needed.”

“Took wonderful care of our animals and listened when we didn’t want them alone for over 12 hours. She made sure to send pictures of each one of them every time she came. Thank you so much!”


“Ingrid spent a lot of time interacting with my four dogs at every visit. She made sure they had plenty of outside playtime. One was a newly rescued stray that although lovable was quite a handful. She was completely unfazed. The dogs finished every visit with her happy and relaxed. She took care of the cats also and even my shy kitty warmed up to her. I will definitely use Ingrid again for our next trip.”
About: Hello! I’m Desiree. I'm 21 years old. I have one dog named Athena. I love animals, and I am a certified vet assistant. I would love to keep your animals company and take them on walks or to the park! I’m currently enrolled in online college, so I have plenty of time in the morning and evening to take care of your babies. I can work with you to find the best possible schedule for you and your animals I have a puppy who is highly anxious and can be slightly reactive. I have learned about pets' behavior and how to ensure an animal is relaxed and happy. I will ensure your animal is well cared for to your standards and routine.

About: I have had cats as pets my entire life. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet - whether for a night, day, or a couple of hours. I want to help alleviate any worries and visit your baby to give any love and attention they desire!

About: I have had cats in my home my entire life. I think they are the most fun, so full of personality, and ridiculously cute. I have dealt with diabetic cats, spiteful cats (pooping outside the litter box if it isn’t cleaned multiple times a day), and everything in between. bring me your little kitty-babies and I will relish every second to be sure.

“Penelope was absolutely incredible! Our situation is a bit unique since we have donkeys, goats, and horses in addition to our cats, but she handled everything with so much care and attention. I can be very particular about how my animals are cared for, and Penelope followed every detail perfectly. While we were gone for two weeks, she kept me at ease with frequent updates and photos, which I truly appreciated. On top of taking such great care of the animals, she was respectful of our home, kept everything clean, and even did her own laundry before leaving. It gave us such peace of mind knowing everything was in her hands. I honestly couldn’t imagine a better person for the job, and we will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Penelope, for everything—you’re a gem!”


About: I've been around cats everyday for about 1 decade. I enjoy their versatile personalities and especially enjoy caring for young kittens. I have experience bottlefeeding kittens and have had 8 in my care. I currently have 1 cat, Artemis, who is very affectionate. She gets along well with my dog and new cats/dogs.
About: I am currently employed as a dog groomer and I have experience as a vet tech! I have had my two dogs for 8 years and I also have pet cats. I have been involved in the rescue community for years, saving dogs and cats and having them sent up north for adoptions. I have the patience required to care for all kinds of animals! I work as a dog groomer during the day, and I can bring my dogs to work with me because we have kennels separating each dog. I am off all day on Sundays. I am extremely patient when it comes to caring for my pets and others’ pets. I am extremely skilled caring for aggressive and timid dogs. One of my dogs has arthritis and hip dysplasia, so he is on constant medication and steroid injections. My other Pomeranian has urinary problems and anxiety, especially around any loud noises, so I have to be extremely patient when she wakes up at all hours of the morning when she is having an anxiety attack. One of my cats also has an enlarged heart, so he is on medication everyday for the rest of his life. But, I wouldn’t change them for anything in the world. Their traits and quirkiness makes them each special in their own way and I look forward to taking care of your pets and learning their different personalities! I work as a dog groomer during the day, so I am allowed to take my pets or my boarding dogs with me to work. We do not allow the dogs to interact for safety reasons, so each dog has their own large kennel. This way your fur babies are not left home alone all day, everyday. I have a fenced yard and friendly pets. I have a two bedroom home with a large living room area. If your dogs are not good with other dogs or cats, I can keep my pets in a separate room while giving your pups the space that they require to feel comfortable and safe. We allow our pets on the bed, so if your pup likes cuddles- there’s plenty to go around! I keep my pets as well as my boarding dogs on a strict schedule when it comes to eating and meds because consistency is key! I try to send pictures and videos every few days so that my clients can have peace of mind while their pups are being boarded and enjoy their trip! I also have cameras all over the inside and outside of my home so that if I am away I can constantly check on my pets and yours.

“My dog loved Sarah and was very calm and happy when I went to pick him up. He was so comfortable with her that he actually ate the food I brought (which speaks volumes for my guy!) and had clearly enjoyed himself - to which, she had sent me multiple photos throughout the service. I was very satisfied and will 100% be hiring her again. Very sweet girl!!!”

We can play with your pets after feeding and watering. After the last visit of the day, we will clean and dispose of any droppings in the yard, so you can come home to a clean start!

About: From the beginning of my life I have always been surrounded by animals. I grew up on a farm and had plenty of pets! I believe every animal in the world deserves love! I am an excellent candidate for your pet! I am very responsible and reliable. I answer quickly and send many pictures during the stay! I make sure they have their appropriate amount of food, water and exercise as well as playtime and attention! I do not just “watch” I care and love for your pet. I take the time to connect with them as they warm up to me. I want to know their feelings, boundaries, mannerisms, and even what side they like to sleep on. Every pet I sit for is not only an opportunity but another connection and commitment to my love of animals. My goal while providing services for your pets is to make both pet and owners comfortable through the whole experience. I understand what it’s like to feel anxious and worried about your pet especially with someone other than yourself. I have been there and felt the same way. Therefore with your pet as listed above I will send multiple updates and pictures as well as answer as soon as possible. Anything and everything I need to for my client and their fur babies! I have had a lot of experience with a large number of dogs and cats before! Whether they be elderly, disabled, super hyper, and even more mellow, as well as territorial, aggressive, and anxious. I treat each pet with care and support and am great at sticking to schedules and keeping pups and cats and even more busy! I am a hard worker and I keep my word. I’m off and pet sitting during the summer. During the school year I’m in and out of the house but love to spend time with my pets and I am very time conscious and responsible about how I spend my time. I make sure my dog Frankie gets so much love and attention and sometimes it’s so much he needs space haha. If I were to host your pet or do any other service for your pet becomes my priority! My job is to provide love and support and I love it! I live in an apartment and it’s always locked and safe! Plenty of toys, and treats to go around! While staying at my apartment your dog will not only be cared for but loved and appreciated. They have free will to get on couches, my bed, anywhere as long as they are comfortable! When it comes to my dog Frankie,I feed my dog 3 times a day and play with him all the time! I play with him for an hour and an extra hour just for pets and love! I cuddle with him every night and make sure he’s happy before I am always. The same goes to any animal I pet sit!
“Karen is amazing! She has an awesome attitude, always happy, and phenomenal with our dogs! Our dogs run to her when she gets here and stare at the door when she leaves just hoping for her to come back.”
“Lillian is the BEST! We have used her many times for boarding and dog walking and she provides 10 out of 10 service. Ollie loves her and is super excited when he gets to see her. She also is great at accommodating late bookings. You will love her! Thank you Lillian”

“Ashely immediately established a positive rapport with our possibly difficult dog and continued building that relationship throughout her contract. Both our dog and cat were well and fine upon our arrival home. Ashley's communication was thorough and consistent. Doppler got walked at least once each day weather permitting. Both dog and cat received good interaction and playtime each day. We recommend Ashely to anyone for either dog or cat care.”

About: I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, dogs, cats, birds, turtles, etc! I’m a huge believer that they’re like family! I had a dog of my own for most of my life that was blind and diabetic, so I’m familiar with taking care of dogs of old age and medical care. I currently work as a flight attendant as well so my schedule varies week to week! I typically have spans on days on/off that make it easy for me to take care of your pets for several days! I live in an apartment that has sidewalks and grass all around, it’s a pet friendly complex:) I have no other pets or children that affect the environment. I’m also nearby a jogging trail that I love to take pets on for walks!
About: My experience has never stopped me from striving to be the best I can be. I’ve had animals in my home for over 15 years, cherishing every moment of it. I'm a stay at home house wife..and caring for your pets is no inconvenience for me.. your pets are very important to me and that they are properly taken care of.. My dog Pinky is never out of sight and my cats are indoor. I will never let out my cats because to many bugs outside..
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I was little from walking to doing tricks and playing with them. I love laying with them aswell and I will always give them lots of attention whenever I’m with them and so will my friends!! I’m currently a college student at TAMUCC and only have morning classes on Tuesday and Thursday and after that I am free to hang out with your babies. I care for pets in my home by letting them be in my room lay on my bed and or couch letting them be free. I make sure they are well taken care of and will always keep an eye on them.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and several years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every fur baby like my own.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely understand how important pets are to their families because I’m a pet parent myself. I currently care for two dogs of my own—Apollo, a 4-year-old Siberian Husky, and Milo, a 3-year-old Shih Tzu—which has given me experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, patience, and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm and relaxing environment, I will adapt to their needs and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I am dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pet owners informed through regular updates and photos. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I strive to provide peace of mind by treating every pet as if they were my own. My experience with both a high-energy Husky and a small companion breed has taught me the importance of exercise, consistency, supervision, and positive interactions. Above all, I provide a safe, loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Right now, pet care fits into my schedule primarily on weekends. I am starting with weekend availability so I can dedicate my full attention and energy to each pet I care for without conflicting weekday commitments. This allows me to provide reliable walks, drop-ins, or overnight care while ensuring pets receive consistent attention and supervision. On weekends, I have the flexibility to plan my time around feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any specific routines each pet needs. I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely so pets stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine while their owners are away. As I grow on Rover, I plan to gradually expand my availability into weekdays as well. My goal is to eventually offer more flexible scheduling while still maintaining the same level of care, communication, and dependability that I provide on weekends. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home. I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and any house rules to keep the pet’s environment consistent and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a calm, clean, and secure environment. I ensure doors are properly closed and locked, pets are always supervised during visits, and I stay attentive to anything that could affect their safety or comfort. I focus on building trust with each pet by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I also keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and notes so they always know how their pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, just as they would with their own family.
About: I always volunteer at local rescues and since I was a little girl I have always wanted a dog but have never been able to get one due to my mom being allergic so any chance I get I’m always pet sitting for family friends and coworkers and neighbors and I volunteer because taking care of them makes me feel as though they are my pets 🥰 I have a part time job that takes up just a little time in my day the rest I have so much free time and I love to be productive and active when I have free time. I would prefer taking care of the pets in the clients home just because it is more convenient for me because my mom is allergic to animals and so that doesn’t work out for me and I think it is more for the owner because they don’t have to pack anything or worry about bringing me anything for there pet.
About: I have experience cat and dog sitting for various breeds and ages, and have been doing this for most of my adult life—I love it. From taking your dogs on walks, staying over night with your kitties or puppies, or even taking care of them when they are sick, I would love to make sure your pet is taken care of just as you would yourself. I’ve dealt with rambunctious wire hairs, skittish kittens, and everything in between. I am so excited to meet your favorite doggo or kitto and love on them! I currently have a flexible schedule. When dropping in or taking your pets on a walk I am available 2-3 times a day. For overnight stays I am able to be there every night (all night) and stop in during the day between my work schedules (I work multiple part time jobs for better flexibility). I would be happy to discuss what this looks like further! Please keep in mind I cannot be at your home all day everyday for housesitting / animal sitting unless it is booked over a month in advance and it would cost more as I would need to take time off from other work to make that happen. But if you do not require that level of attention then things will be much easier to figure out! However you choose for me to care for your pets inside your home I am ready and prepared to do! I love cuddling with your pets and making sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away. All I ask is for clear instructions so I can keep your fur baby’s schedule and environment as consistent as possible.
About: I have experience with pets of all ages—from high-energy puppies who need structure and patience, to senior pets who require extra love, medication, and slow, gentle care. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical meds, handling special diets, and following detailed care routines. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily and weekly routine—whether it’s early morning feedings, afternoon walks, evening cuddles, or keeping detailed checklists for pets with special needs. I structure my schedule around the animals in my care, not the other way around. Your pet’s routine becomes my routine. Basically: I’m the sitter who cares about the little stuff and the big stuff—and your pets can tell the difference. When I care for pets in their own home, I respect their space and their routine. I follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walking routes. I keep everything tidy, send regular updates and photos, and make sure your pet feels safe in their familiar environment. My goal is always to make your absence as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet.

About: I love taking care of babies. Dogs make me happy. I have 2 of my own, but my love won't let me have anymore. This way I can love more. I've never seen a dog as just "a dog". My Border Collie saved me as much as I saved her. I think dogs bring a "peace" to their human. I've saved quite a lot, I use to find them, and if I couldn't find their human, I'd give them a home, show them love and then get to work finding the perfect home. I want to be able to spread love to as many pups as I can. If I'm tending to your baby. It's important that you know I'll love them and treat them as my own.
About: I’ve always have had a huge heart for all animals since I was a kid. Now that we have adopted our baby I got to quit my job and stayhome.But I would love to do something I actually love and that is taking care of fur babies. I have 5 dogs and 1 cat ranging from pitbull, American Bully, miniature pincher, and two Frenchies. They are definitely spoiled for sure. I am available anytime except for overnight visits. My fur babies are very gentle with our son and he will learn to love animals as well.. I have a fenced backyard that our fur babies get to enjoy sunbathing in playing as much as they like. I will not be bringing any animals to our home just for the safety of not knowing how my dogs would like other dogs in their yard..
About: I am currently employed as a dog groomer and I have experience as a vet tech! I have had my two dogs for 8 years and I also have pet cats. I have been involved in the rescue community for years, saving dogs and cats and having them sent up north for adoptions. I have the patience required to care for all kinds of animals! I work as a dog groomer during the day, and I can bring my dogs to work with me because we have kennels separating each dog. I am off all day on Sundays. I am extremely patient when it comes to caring for my pets and others’ pets. I am extremely skilled caring for aggressive and timid dogs. One of my dogs has arthritis and hip dysplasia, so he is on constant medication and steroid injections. My other Pomeranian has urinary problems and anxiety, especially around any loud noises, so I have to be extremely patient when she wakes up at all hours of the morning when she is having an anxiety attack. One of my cats also has an enlarged heart, so he is on medication everyday for the rest of his life. But, I wouldn’t change them for anything in the world. Their traits and quirkiness makes them each special in their own way and I look forward to taking care of your pets and learning their different personalities! I work as a dog groomer during the day, so I am allowed to take my pets or my boarding dogs with me to work. We do not allow the dogs to interact for safety reasons, so each dog has their own large kennel. This way your fur babies are not left home alone all day, everyday. I have a fenced yard and friendly pets. I have a two bedroom home with a large living room area. If your dogs are not good with other dogs or cats, I can keep my pets in a separate room while giving your pups the space that they require to feel comfortable and safe. We allow our pets on the bed, so if your pup likes cuddles- there’s plenty to go around! I keep my pets as well as my boarding dogs on a strict schedule when it comes to eating and meds because consistency is key! I try to send pictures and videos every few days so that my clients can have peace of mind while their pups are being boarded and enjoy their trip! I also have cameras all over the inside and outside of my home so that if I am away I can constantly check on my pets and yours.
About: In addition to living with dogs at home for years (Newfoundlands and labs) I have spent the past few years pet sitting with Rover and fostering with my local animal shelter. I’ve worked with reactive, anxious, and high energy dogs- taking the time to build strong bonds so they can be successful! I am currently a PhD student with gaps between classes and work! This allows me to stop by before and after classes depending on your pet’s needs. I am active and able to take them for runs/walks, to the park, or play outside if that is most comfortable for you and them. I’m comfortable taking them in my car which has a backseat cover and seatbelt so we can go on adventures as well.
About: I’ve had my chihuahua Ginger for 11 years now and have had her since she was born. My 2nd baby is a chihuahua mix named Lola and I’ve had her for about 6 years. My last baby is my fiancés 3 year old Belgian Malinois named Luna. I’m comfortable with all dog sizes and love caring for them and making sure they get enough attention! I work full time and live in Corpus from Friday nights til Tuesday nights. I am available all day on Saturdays and Sundays. On Mondays and Tuesdays I work from home but my days end at 2pm so I am able to care for a pet after that time. I’ve always made sure my doggies have everything they need as well as any of my friends who I’ve taken care of as well. I make sure they’re taken on walks and have time to exercise. When I am not home my pets are kenneled or gated separately for their safety.

“We are so grateful to have trusted Dominique to watch over Sage. She was well cared for and entertained throughout her stay and Dominique was consistently updating us. Sage made some new friend's along the way and Dominique & her family even got her a present for her 4th birthday (which she LOVES!)... I highly recommend her, she's so awesome! We will be booking again!”

“They were absolutely amazing! They communicated well and checked in everyday to let me know how Nova was doing throughout her stay! As someone who usually plans vacations with the idea of bringing my dog with me I don’t usually have her boarded so I was very nervous but they were truly amazing and if I ever have to have her boarded again I’ll definitely be booking with them!”
“Cindy was excellent! She took such great care of our 1 yr old Portuguese water dog! She got her tons of excercise and sent plenty of pictures and videos to show us our furry family was well taken care of. She had a wonderful backyard for her to play in too! 10/10 recommend Cindy!”

“Gina took our dog Checo for a long weekend when we went out of town and we cannot be more happy! She and her family were incredible and made it feel like Checo was their own! Gina sent us tons of updates with photos and videos! Our dog had the best time playing with her dogs and getting all the love and pets and cuddles from Gina and her family! We will use Gina from here on out! Thank you Gina for everything”

“I left my chocolate lab with Molli as we were passing through her town on our way to our vacation. She had availability just 2 days in advance which was super convenient for us! I received lots of pictures and updates of my dog doing fun things and looking super happy, comfortable, and relaxed. Very happy with the entire experience!”

“Ashley was great, including accommodating our desire for a meet and greet even though I had already booked a stay with her! Her experience in animal care aa a vet tech was very reassuring, especially that she was familiar with several of the meds our dog Niiki was on. And when I told her it was Stella's birthday during the middle of our trip, she gave Stella a birthday party complete with birthday cookie! Ashley accommodated our pickup time, even in the middle of her own family emergency. Ashley goes above and beyond. I have no reservations in recommending her.”

“Paige took great care of our dog Maya. She sent us many pictures and Maya looked so happy in them. This was our first time using Rover and we definitely plan on using it again for future trips.”
“Ford was very well taken care of and cared for during his stay. I will definitely have to return Ford here again in the future, I greatly appreciate everything.”

“Stefani was wonderful with my dog Brodie over the weekend! She kept me updated, sent pictures, and made sure he was comfortable the whole time. I could tell he was happy and well cared for when I got back. It’s clear she really loves dogs, and I felt completely at ease leaving him with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Stefani again! Even Brodie misses hanging out with Charlie!”

“I had to leave town in an emergency, Sarah responded quick and was able to take in my two dogs. They appear to have really enjoyed their time while I was away. Thanks again.”


“We are so very happy that we found Carolyn! We are from out of town and we needed a sitter right away. She was very quick to respond. Brody was very comfortable there from the moment he arrived. I loved getting pics and updates throughout his stay. Would love to use their services again.”

“Melinda was amazing, I’m a total helicopter dog mom and Melinda was not only great with my sweet girl Frankie but she was also so good about putting my mind at ease with photo updates of how Frankie was doing!! I’m new in town and I’m so happy we found Melinda and her happy dog family!!”

“If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and absolutely fantastic dog sitter, look no further! I recently left my 3 month old puppy with Jennifer S. and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she truly cares for animals. She took the time to learn about specific needs, and routines, which put my mind at ease right away. Throughout the stay, she provided regular updates, including photos about what my puppy had been up to—walks, playtime, and all the cuddles! It’s obvious that my puppy was well cared for and I think she was not happy to leave her new friends. Jennifer S. treats her clients’ pets as if they were her own, which is so reassuring. If you need someone who’s trustworthy, experienced, and goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Jennifer S.”
