Highly-rated overnight sitters - Poth
“We couldn't be more grateful to Michaella for taking such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with her kind and professional approach. It was clear that our pup was not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for like one of her own. Michaella kept us updated with regular messages and the sweetest photos, which really helped us feel connected and reassured. Her communication was excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Our dog clearly adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup—which says it all. We highly recommend Michaella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible caregiver. She's simply the best! 🐾”
“Angela and Samuel were wonderful with our labradoodle! They took care of her as if she was their own, they kept us updated on her which made us feel great! Thank you guys for being so good to Gracie!”
“Amanda is AMAZING. We received updates DAILY through pictures and videos while our pups were in her care. Our pups stayed active, fed, and rested well after their eventful days. We plan to continue using Amanda for as long as she’ll have us! 😊”
“Thor loved being here he ran in the door before I got back in my truck. Damien was very nice and made it easy for me to drop off Thor and made him feel at home right away!”
“Thank you for watching Thor on the 14-17. So happy to see him happy in all the photos that were sent to me while I was away. Thank you for keep in touch with me while I was gone. Truly appreciate you taking Thor as well so last minute! We will be using you again and I’m sure Thor is just as excited to know we found a sitter close by and to see Brewster again!”
“Tia was great with my dog! He is a very active, and she seemed to handle him with ease. Tia is a very caring and dedicated sitter, and I would recommend her for your sitting needs.”
“Great at keeping me informed on my dogs and asking questions on what she could do to help my female who was mad and refusing to eat. Even with going into labor she still kept me well informed!”
“Pamela can watch my baby anytime! While I was gone I barely had reception but whenever I got one, there were updates about Chase. Pics and comforting words so that I wouldn't worry too much. Chase came back happy to see us but not disengaged or traumatized. You can see she truly has a love for pets. Whenever I need a sitter, I'm looking for Pamela as my 1st option. Thank you so much for putting my family at ease.”
“I had to extend by a day because of travel delays and Courtney was super understanding and sweet about the whole thing, sent me updates every day and also sent a few goodies for Tom (my cat) when I came to pick him up!”
“We love GerryLeah!! Our pups, who are usually indifferent about staying elsewhere, will walk themselves to her boarding facility and get so excited to see her. She cares for them the same way we do and I know they’re safe and in good hands with her. We can’t thank her enough and will always choose to board with her if we can 😊”

“Shelby was absolutely amazing! She did a fantastic job taking care of our two pups and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. It was so nice seeing how much fun they were having and knowing they were in great hands. It was clear that Shelby truly cared for our dogs and treated them like her own. Our pups looked so happy, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay. We came home to two very happy dogs, and that means everything to us.

“April did a great job with boarding my Chihuahua, Oliver. She sent very good photos and videos and was good about keeping in touch. She also made sure to keep Oliver safe and happy.”
“Our first time using Rover.com services. We were initially nervous about leaving our dog Rico with a complete stranger. After a meet and greet with Genevieve, we were instantly at ease! She was warm and friendly, answered all of our questions with great detail, and even asked questions about Rico and any special considerations/needs that I had not considered listing when creating our pet profile. Genevieve was extremely good at communicating during our 7 days away. We received a couple of photos each day, with a detailed write-up of Rico's daily adventures. She administered Rico's many different medications daily, and was sure to let us know what was administered and how much. The HUGE smiles on our pup's face were reassuring while we were away, he looked like he was having fun at summer camp! Drop-off and pick-up were a breeze, we would happily trust Genevieve with our pup any time! We look forward to booking her again!”
“This was our first time leaving Jagger alone with a complete stranger, yet from beginning to end, April calmed our fears and reassured us that our puppy would be well taken care of. Jagger had a blast, and we enjoyed seeing photos of him interacting with April's dogs. I'd recommend her services to anyone. ”

“Katriana is amazing! She came by before our trip to meet all the fur babies, see where everything was that is needed to take care of the babies and to reassure me that my babies were in good hands. I felts 100% comfortable leaving all my babies in her hands and the stress that I was feeling was eliminated after meeting her. Our fur babies were loved and taken care of while we were out of town. Katriana is tentative, respectful, reassuring, and loving. I would recommend her to everyone that is looking for a wonderful pet sitter because she goes above and beyond.”

About: I love caring for all dogs as if they were my own. I have years of experience with my own dogs as well as with friends dogs. I walk, bathe, take care of over night if that’s what your pet needs. I’m fully committed to making this my full time job. Every day I am available and willing to travel as far as 15miles for walks and check ins. Also for boarding, they can spend the night and have a great time with me and my beautiful border collie. I have a big fenced backyard with doggy door access. A crate if that’s what you prefer. My dog is very friendly and loves to play. If you want me to drop by your home and check in to feed, bathe, administer medicine, or just simply play time. If they need a walk as well.
About: Whether your dog needs play time or a quiet environment, they will love hanging out with me and my 4 legged companion. When I'm not working, my dog and I go on some pretty cool adventures together and he loves it when I dog sit a dog at his speed. Your dog will not be cooped up in a kennel unless you make this request. When they are not playing, your pet will be kept indoors. I have over 10 years of working with bully breeds and hybrids. High energy breeds is my field of expertise. My home is minutes from the beautiful San Antonio River and we visit there often. Some of our favorite hangouts are, the Pearl Brewery, San Antonio Riverwalk, Alamo Quarry, Calaveras Lake and many nature trails in our area. I will spoil your Best Friend as I do my own. Proceeds from my Pet sits will benefit my non profit that provides emergency groceries for Homebound Seniors. About this sitter: I totally get it! Let me visit your pets in the comfort of their own home. I'm use to traveling and frequent the major cities of TX every month. I am very familiar with the city of S.A. and surrounding. Your dog will receive a walk twice a day if you would like him or her to. I have trained and worked with all breeds and sizes so no dog is too big or high energy for me! Why I love dog sitting My Grandfather raised German Shepherds and my Father loved Large Breeds. Growing up, I remember always having dogs. In 2000 I started a group called Mutt Rescue & Adoption to help save dogs that are pending euthanasia at the city Pound. Our group rescued and transported animals nationwide. We saved thousands of dogs from euthanasia! My experience administering medication I can administer medication by oral or injection. I can take your do on early morning walks/runs or late runs, temperature and weather permitting. I am an avid runner so high energy breeds work great with my lifestyle! I try to stick to the dog's current schedule. If it's a puppy, then I help with the toilet training process. I do have 2 cats in my home, but they can be separated to another bedroom if your dog does not co exist well with cats.
“Odalys and Mel took such great care of my cat, Slipper. Throughout my time away, I received daily updates and videos of Slipper and knowing that Odalys and Mel were there put me at ease. Will definitely be requesting them for future bookings the next time I am out of town.”
About: What makes me different from other pet sitters is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the same love and respect I would give my own. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, routine, and unique needs.

About: I’ve cared for dogs in every stage of life, from a 6-year-old rescue to puppies I raised and trained myself. My dogs are housebroken and crate trained, and I’m comfortable reinforcing structure and routines. I’ve also provided overnight care for large dogs with specific medication needs and frequent walk schedules, so I understand the importance of consistency and attention to detail. I’m patient, calm, and respectful of each dog’s personality. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m flexible and able to plan my day around scheduled walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m organized and punctual, so I make sure pets are fed, walked, and cared for on time, especially when they’re used to a consistent routine. Since I provide care in my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, crate use, and household rules. For walks and drop-ins, I prioritize leash safety, secure doors and gates, and make sure pets have fresh water and a calm environment before I leave. During overnight stays, I maintain their normal routine to reduce stress and keep them feeling safe while their owner is away.
“This is my second time booking Tim, and just as before, he did a great job. Tim gave me regular updates, pics, and voluntarily went above and beyond the usual sitter expectations. My two cats are familiar with and fond of Tim -- I don't even know how he does that. I have no problem recommending Tim for anyone who needs peace of mind for their pets.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Poth
About: I’ve had animals all my life. Dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, Porcupine, Iguanas and snakes. Id love to put your heart to ease by caring for your family member. I have a flexible schedule. Once you message me, I’ll respond relatively quickly to let you know availability is. Please try to message me at least 24 hours in advance. I would be caring for your pet in my home. I would prefer you bring a kennel or crate. I just need to know exactly what you do at home if there’s any bad habits, a crate pretty much takes care of everything.
“Jeffery and his wife are super friendly and accommodating. They've taken my reservations with little notice and my dog has fun and comes home exhausted. Will definitely book again!!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, both personally and professionally. I worked as a small animal veterinary technician for three years, gaining hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Now as a stay-at-home mom with my own pups — Cooper and Jax — as well as my one year old daughter. I bring that same level of care and attention into our home every day. Living on a small farm with a pig, horses, and cows I have to have patience and consistency, and I treat every pet like part of the family. I’m confident with medications, special needs pets, and making sure each animal feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m home all day with my dogs! I make sure to take multiple leashed walks to check the farm animals, giving pups exercise, stimulation, and plenty of attention. While I don’t have a fenced yard, your dog will still get plenty of fresh air and activity! The dog(s) and I go on several leashed walks each day to check on our pig, horses, and cows — it’s a calm, country setting with lots of fun sights and smells for curious pups. All outdoor time is supervised and on-leash, and inside your pet will enjoy a cozy, family-style environment with Cooper and Buck.

“Pamela is the best! I am so glad I booked with her and I highly and strongly recommend her! My dog has anxiety, barks at everything she sees and hears and I did not think she would get along with any other animals. However, Pamela introduced her to another adorable, sweet furbaby and they were all like bffs!! Lol. I was so impressed and I couldn’t believe my dog can actually be around/near other dogs. It made my work trip stress-free not having to worry about her and I couldn’t be more thankful! She responded so quickly, cares about my furbaby like she was her own, spoiled her & gave her all the attention my needy baby wanted lol. Pamela also sent me updates, took cute pics/videos, and she was so sweet and accommodating! My dog can’t obviously talk lol but it seems like she loved every minute being there and had the best time. I almost think she did not want me to take her home lol. If only she was in the city I live, I would definitely be booking more days with her. I couldn’t thank her enough!!”
About: What makes me different from other sitters is that I naturally include training in my time with dogs. Even small things—like impulse control, manners, or minor behavioral habits—can make a big difference, and I love turning training into play. I especially enjoy working with puppies! They’re so smart, curious, and always up for a challenge. With your permission, I can help your pup start off on the right paw. Of course, if your dog just wants playtime and cuddles, I’m more than happy to provide that too. My goal is always to meet your dog’s needs and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can give plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m also available on weekends—so whether you’re heading out for a movie, a night out, or just need some time to relax, I’ll be there to make sure your furry companion is safe, happy, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to body language and always put each dog’s needs first. I do have a 3-year-old son who loves to run around, but he also knows to give dogs their space if they don’t want to play. I also share my home with a 3-year-old chocolate Lab. He’s a very sweet, easygoing boy who does great with puppies, cats, and older dogs. If your dog isn’t comfortable around others or prefers crate time, I’m happy to adjust. I can separate him and do rotational play so that your pup feels safe and cared for.
About: I love my dogs and I will love yours to!! Your family member will have a great place to stay, and somebody to play with. They will be well taken care of and have everything they will need, food, water, outside, pet scratches, and belly rubs. We will be taking walks in a lovely neighborhood and spend some time at the park. You may not want them to stay to long or they may not want to go home. I look forward to taking in your family members while you are out of town or taking care of business. Either way you can rest easy knowing your beloved animals are here with me and in a safe place, I will be more than happy to do so! Thank you for your time and hope I’m a good match for you and your fur babies. I currently have free time at my home so I would love to spend some time with a friendly pet. I am currently a stay at home mom. I like to give attention when attention is needed to pets. If they want to play I will play with them or if they need to go out to potty, I will take them out. Anything your pet needs I will be there.

About: Please note that Rover retains a 20% service fee from each booking, so my rates are set to remain fair while still reflecting the level of care and attention I provide. I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and attentive environment for every pet, and I take great pride in the quality of care I deliver. I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and reptiles—since a young age. Over the years, family members and friends have consistently trusted me to feed, bathe, and walk their pets, which has helped me build a strong foundation in reliable and compassionate animal care. I do have two young daughters, ages 4 and 2. They are very well-behaved around animals and understand the importance of being gentle and respectful—such as not pulling on tails or ears.

About: Hi there! I’m a 35-year-old dog lover with a background in Business Management and over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I’m married to my wonderful husband of 14 years, who proudly serves on active duty in the military. Our family is currently stationed in San Antonio, where we share our home with our loyal German Shepherd, Apache. My passion for dogs began long before Apache—over the past 10 years, I’ve devoted much of my time to rescuing dogs, helping them heal, feel safe, and find loving homes. Along the way, I discovered how much I truly enjoy boarding and caring for pups. Creating a comfortable, structured, and loving environment for every dog who stays with us has become something I take great pride in. Whether you need reliable boarding, dedicated care, or simply someone who treats your dog like family, I’m here to help. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always come first with me! I work from home and off on weekends! I can Also take my work with me anywhere so if you’re needing me to drop by a few times a day, staying over, or to watch your animals in the comfort of my home I am completely flexible! Providing a safe, trusting, and healthy environment for animals starts with understanding their needs and creating a space where they feel protected and cared for. Safety comes first I make sure the surroundings are secure, free from hazards, and suited to the animal’s size, temperament, and habits. This can mean checking fences, removing toxic plants or objects, and ensuring they have access to clean water and a comfortable resting area. Building trust is just as important! Animals feel more at ease when they know what to expect, so keeping a calm tone, moving gently, and following consistent routines helps them feel secure around you. Taking time to observe their body language and respecting their boundaries shows them that you’re someone they can rely on. Trust grows when an animal feels heard and never forced.
“Jack had so much fun with Becky & her pup! He played all day and came home exhausted. She was super flexible with timing to drop off and pick up, and very communicative. We received several updates and pics throughout the day! Will definitely be our go-to in the future!”
“Ms. Shannon is so nice and accommodating! She immediately agreed to watch our dog and kept us updated during his stay. We look forward to keep using her services in the near future and highly recommend her as a sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of my grandmothers pets for about 2 years now. Pets are a huge part of my life and I love taking care of my animals and hope to help others. I’m currently working a part time job at a fast food restaurant. My schedule varies week to week. With all my studies done for the summer I have more time to care for pets and animals. I have a fenced yard and one Great Pyrenees to keep your company pet friendly company. So much yard space to encourage your dogs zoomies :)

They are like family to me. My schedule is flexible but i will be taking some summer classes. I will still be open to scheduling anyone that fits my hours. Which is in between 12-3pm through the week. But on the weekends it will be in between 9am-2pm. I have a fenced house that is very large in size then can keep your dogs safe and sound with also having them roam free in. I’m also near a park that they can can go for walks.
About: What makes me different from other pet sitters is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the same love and respect I would give my own. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, routine, and unique needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and reserved, I adjust my care to help them feel comfortable and secure. I believe every pet deserves individualized attention. I am dependable and take my responsibilities seriously. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I prioritize your pet's safety and well-being at all times. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and making sure they feel loved while their owners are away. I am patient with pets that may need extra reassurance or special attention. I provide plenty of affection, playtime, and companionship. I also make sure pets stay on their normal routines as much as possible. I understand that consistency helps pets feel relaxed and happy. I pay close attention to details and follow care instructions carefully. Communication is very important to me. I provide updates, photos, and messages so pet parents can feel at ease while they are away. I want you to know that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both pets and their owners. I am committed to creating a positive experience for everyone involved. I am reliable, organized, and responsive. I understand that every pet has different needs and preferences. I take pride in being someone pet owners can count on. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for from the moment I arrive. I strive to provide peace of mind for pet parents and a fun, stress-free experience for their pets. When you choose me, you're choosing someone who truly cares about your pet's happiness and well-being. Even though my work schedule may change, I make pet care a priority. I am committed to ensuring that pets receive the attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship they need. I carefully review my availability each week and communicate openly with pet owners about scheduling. I believe that clear communication helps create a positive experience for both pets and their families. I am happy to discuss visit times, walking schedules, and other care needs in advance. In a client's home, I work to maintain the pet's normal routine as much as possible. I know that pets are often most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I make sure they receive consistent care, attention, and companionship while their owners are away. I provide fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection. I also keep pet owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident that their pet is doing well.
About: As someone who frequently pet sits for neighbors and friends, I have a lot of experience with many different kinds of furry friends. My neighbors frequently relied on me to feed and clean up after their 7 cats as they would go out of town often. Furthermore, I also pet sat 3 horses a few times for some friends leaving town. As a dog owner of 3 for 10+ years, I also have much experience with hyperactive, excitable dogs. Lastly, I had a bunny for 5 years, so I also have a lot of experience with small pets as well. I’m currently looking for a part-time schedule in the summer to pet sit. I am available to pet sit overnight with enough notice, stay for a few hours at a time, take care of animals at my home, or go on walks. I have a fenced yard and two playful beagles to keep your furry friends company. Depending on what kind of animal you and what they prefer will also dictate where they will be. But you can trust they will feel right at home.

PM me if you need a hand with: Afternoon walks Feeding/Check-ins Weekend sitting I have time after school and on weekends to care for your pet! The "Safety Check" Protocol: Upon arrival, I do a quick sweep of the "danger zones" (ensuring trash cans are closed, loose items are off the floor, and gates are secure). Routine Consistency: I stick strictly to your pet’s schedule. Whether it's the exact time for a pill or the specific way they like their ears scratched, I maintain their "home-school" routine to minimize anxiety. Communication: You’ll get "Report Cards" (updates and photos) after every visit so you know exactly how they’re doing. Property Respect: As a professional, I leave your home exactly as I found it—well-guarded and tidy.
“Rosa is absolutely amazing! She is so caring, attentive, and flexible. She ensured that my house and my pet were safe and secure. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures as well. I will absolutely be using her services again 🐶”
About: I always have been around cats and dogs all of my life. I first started to volunteer at San Antonio Humane Society in 2021 and previously wanted to start a career in Vet Med but decided to switch to Forensic Science. I’ve learned how to work with sick patients, surgery after care, medication administration, pet diabetes, reactive pets, and even can help with livestock cleaning and feeding ^~^ I am currently between jobs and can do multiple daily check ins / walking. Im always fostering kittens at home so I am definitely constantly moving ^~^ When I care for your fur babies in your home, I will always keep in touch with you on their condition and will let you know if anything happens ASAP. If there are medications to be administered I will keep a written log of time and date it was given. On top of that I always monitor daily water and food intake to see if there is any changes that may occur.
“If I could give more than 5 ?, I would!! We had an unexpected dog sitting emergency and Odalys came to the rescue on a moments notice and not only provided excellent dog care, but excellent communication as well. We were so happy to get the great pics every visit and know that our dogs were being so well cared for. Will definitely be using Odalys again in the future!”
About: I am willing to learn from your animal baby, I've also taken care of puppies, my old dog had a whole litter of 6 and we had a home birth. I've also cared for multiple litters of kittens. I know basics of training, however I am not a dog trainer! Just a loving being, hoping to connect with you and your dog or cat to best help them while you do your thing 🩷🦋 thank you for the opportunity Personally, I work full time at a Montessori inspired school and go to school so weekdays are not usually open for me. However, on weekends, I have more availability to look out for your furr babies while also doing community outreach. Eventually, I would like to work from home or find more space for this work as I transition to different work. I am willing to do drop INS after 6pm on certain days and vacation time I care for my animals with lots of love, usually I try to take the time to be with them since working full time you don't always get to. They are my babies and I want them all to feel like I am there for them 🩷. I usually clean their litter boxes, feed and cuddle when I get home 🩷 as for other animals around me that have come and gone, I am grateful for the unconditional love they have shown me and I to them 🩷
About: I enjoy the freedom to work from home while hosting guest dogs for my dog, Lulu, to socialize and play with. I’ll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. I’ve done dog walks and pet sitting for over five years and have LOVED every step! I’m so excited to join Rover and provide exceptional care to your babies, to love them and protect them as if my own! You can be sure that if your pets are in my care they will be well-loved and taken care of. I enjoy volunteering my time with local dog rescues, hiking as well as spending time with my family. Thank you and see you soon!
About: I’ve had pets in my home since I was a child and have always had a passion for working with animals. I love meeting new animals and learning their unique personalities! I have experience in bathing, some grooming, and general care of most animals. My schedule differs from week to week but my job is always willing to work with changing schedules as long as I communicate with them. Just message me and we'll work out a schedule. I’m not able to care for other animals in my own home but I will use all the resources you allow me in your home to care for your pets to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life. Ever since I was a little kid animals were a part of life. I have experience in all forms of animal care. Giving medication, training, mental stimulation, and anything else needed! I am great with all doggies and kitties. I enjoy all animals and making sure they are happy and healthy :). I am currently only a student. My schedule is pretty open because I recently left the military. This fits into my schedule well because of how flexible it is. I have a large fenced in yard with many toys. I also have two very friendly dogs of my own who enjoy company. The dogs get lots of pets, outside time, and fed on a scheduled basis.
About: I've been a dog lover my whole life, owning and caring for pups of all sizes since I was 8. Every experience with them has made me a better person, and now I get to combine that passion with my daily routine! Dog walking not only keeps me active but also helps keep me happy ^w^ I can’t wait to meet your pup and go for a fun run—or a leisurely walk if that’s more their style! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I typically work evenings, any time I'm not at work though I'm usually spending time with my own dog at home, or trying to make extra to save up for a car and groceries 😁 However you as the client tell me to treat your pet, I will gladly treat your pet, nothing is too embarrassing or too much, as long as they're with me, they get my sole attention 😊

“We couldn't be more grateful to Michaella for taking such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with her kind and professional approach. It was clear that our pup was not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for like one of her own. Michaella kept us updated with regular messages and the sweetest photos, which really helped us feel connected and reassured. Her communication was excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Our dog clearly adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup—which says it all. We highly recommend Michaella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible caregiver. She's simply the best! 🐾”

“Amanda is AMAZING. We received updates DAILY through pictures and videos while our pups were in her care. Our pups stayed active, fed, and rested well after their eventful days. We plan to continue using Amanda for as long as she’ll have us! 😊”
“Thor loved being here he ran in the door before I got back in my truck. Damien was very nice and made it easy for me to drop off Thor and made him feel at home right away!”
“Thank you for watching Thor on the 14-17. So happy to see him happy in all the photos that were sent to me while I was away. Thank you for keep in touch with me while I was gone. Truly appreciate you taking Thor as well so last minute! We will be using you again and I’m sure Thor is just as excited to know we found a sitter close by and to see Brewster again!”
“Great at keeping me informed on my dogs and asking questions on what she could do to help my female who was mad and refusing to eat. Even with going into labor she still kept me well informed!”
“Pamela can watch my baby anytime! While I was gone I barely had reception but whenever I got one, there were updates about Chase. Pics and comforting words so that I wouldn't worry too much. Chase came back happy to see us but not disengaged or traumatized. You can see she truly has a love for pets. Whenever I need a sitter, I'm looking for Pamela as my 1st option. Thank you so much for putting my family at ease.”
“We love GerryLeah!! Our pups, who are usually indifferent about staying elsewhere, will walk themselves to her boarding facility and get so excited to see her. She cares for them the same way we do and I know they’re safe and in good hands with her. We can’t thank her enough and will always choose to board with her if we can 😊”

“Shelby was absolutely amazing! She did a fantastic job taking care of our two pups and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. It was so nice seeing how much fun they were having and knowing they were in great hands. It was clear that Shelby truly cared for our dogs and treated them like her own. Our pups looked so happy, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay. We came home to two very happy dogs, and that means everything to us. We’re incredibly grateful for the wonderful care she provided and would absolutely book with Shelby again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy, and attentive!”
“Our first time using Rover.com services. We were initially nervous about leaving our dog Rico with a complete stranger. After a meet and greet with Genevieve, we were instantly at ease! She was warm and friendly, answered all of our questions with great detail, and even asked questions about Rico and any special considerations/needs that I had not considered listing when creating our pet profile. Genevieve was extremely good at communicating during our 7 days away. We received a couple of photos each day, with a detailed write-up of Rico's daily adventures. She administered Rico's many different medications daily, and was sure to let us know what was administered and how much. The HUGE smiles on our pup's face were reassuring while we were away, he looked like he was having fun at summer camp! Drop-off and pick-up were a breeze, we would happily trust Genevieve with our pup any time! We look forward to booking her again!”
“This was our first time leaving Jagger alone with a complete stranger, yet from beginning to end, April calmed our fears and reassured us that our puppy would be well taken care of. Jagger had a blast, and we enjoyed seeing photos of him interacting with April's dogs. I'd recommend her services to anyone. ”
“Roxy was well taken care of in a safe home and got to enjoy a lot of playful interactions with their two dogs. I received pictures and updates which really helped me feel connected to how Roxy was doing. Thanks for taking care of my girl 😊”
“She was absolutely amazing! I feel 100 percent comfortable and even look forward to when she can watch my dog in the future. She’s great and my dog had a great time. I know because I got constant video/photo updates as well!”
“Our second time leaving Oakley and June & it went amazing. I received pictures, quick communication, and my pups are safe and healthy! Our number one choice for our furbabies!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, both personally and professionally. I worked as a small animal veterinary technician for three years, gaining hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Now as a stay-at-home mom with my own pups — Cooper and Jax — as well as my one year old daughter. I bring that same level of care and attention into our home every day. Living on a small farm with a pig, horses, and cows I have to have patience and consistency, and I treat every pet like part of the family. I’m confident with medications, special needs pets, and making sure each animal feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m home all day with my dogs! I make sure to take multiple leashed walks to check the farm animals, giving pups exercise, stimulation, and plenty of attention. While I don’t have a fenced yard, your dog will still get plenty of fresh air and activity! The dog(s) and I go on several leashed walks each day to check on our pig, horses, and cows — it’s a calm, country setting with lots of fun sights and smells for curious pups. All outdoor time is supervised and on-leash, and inside your pet will enjoy a cozy, family-style environment with Cooper and Buck.
“Sergio was kind during our meet and greet, and I appreciate that they prioritized Butterfinger’s safety when they realized he wasn’t a good fit for their home. My only criticism is that I wish we had been notified when the incident occurred rather than after I reached out for an update. Rover refunded the unused portion of the stay, and I hope they’re a great fit for dogs with different needs!! :)”
