“We booked last minute and was such an easy process! They were so quick to respond and super helpful. I know Koda had an amazing time there and we will definitely be bringing her back in the future!”
“Shirley is a kind and compassionate person who was willing to take on my grand dog I just inherited. I did not know that much about Lola’s behaviors with other dogs or how she would be away from me. Shirley understands the need to pay attention and let the dog show you what they need. It was a successful experience for both Lola and I and I look forward to our next visit.”
“Michele was very attentive and sent us lots of pictures to keep up with what the dogs were doing. They seemed to have a great time in the big back yard. We will be using Michele again and we’re so happy to have a great option close to our house.”
“Wow, what can I say about Lynn (as she likes to be called) and her husband Ken! We couldn't have asked for better care for our little one, Lacey- the care she received was phenomenal! My husband and I went away for a 28 day cruise and were very hesitant about leaving our dog for so long, since she had never been away from us. After meeting Lynn & Ken for the first time, our minds were completely at ease. Not only was Lacey taken care of- she was spoiled! Bedtime cuddles and homemade doggie treats were a few of the luxuries she enjoyed during her stay. Lynn was so great about keeping in communication with us the whole time we were away- giving us updates and even sending us pictures to enjoy. We did not worry one bit when we were away, knowing that Lacey was one happy little pup. By the time we came home, Lacey was so attached to Lynn & Ken, she cried when leaving. Lynn truly went above and beyond in every aspect! She even sent us home with a baggie of her homemade doggie treats- which must be delicious because Lacey managed to get a hold of them and devour them all in one sitting. Haha! On top of everything, Lynn & Ken were the nicest and sweetest couple! They greeted us with warm smiles and hearts. Not only do we consider them the best pet sitters, but we consider them true friends. I'm so glad to have found such wonderful people and will always continue to entrust our little one in their care for the future. It is clear that they absolutely love what they do and have a love for all animals. Thank you so much Lynn & Ken for everything! Lacey is looking forward to visiting soon!”
“Darren and his family took great care of Teddy! Darren made sure Ted took his allergy medicine, and we loved getting the pictures of the kids interacting with our pup! We would be happy to book with Darren again.”
“Koda absolutely loves staying with Erica & Robert! They update us daily and we feel safe and comfortable with him in their care. We are so thankful for them!”
“Courtney and her family were amazing with our pup while we were away for the weekend. They treated her like one of their own—even letting her sleep in their bed! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands.”
“Ann paid very special attention to our dogs and made sure to keep us updated multiple times every day! The dogs were brought on multiple walks/play sessions a day, and I felt comfortable on my trip knowing that someone capable and caring was watching my pups :)”
“We left our two dogs with claire for the first time . We had never left them and felt nervous leaving them but claire and her husband both mad us feel super comfortable with the process. They kept sending updates and pictures that made me feel good knowing my doggies were in good care. I will definitely use them again. Totally recommend.”
“This was our first time using a new boarder in many years, and Nancy put any anxieties to rest by sending us daily pictures and videos. I’m not sure our Ruby wanted to come home she was having so much fun!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Layla! She is very communicative and our pup had the best time (we could tell from all the pics we were sent)! Definitely recommend Layla watching your dog :)”
“Our dog really seemed to enjoy her time here! We received daily pictures of her hanging out with her new friends. The backyard is the perfect set-up for little dogs. We felt confident she was being well taken care of.”
“Megan was very attentive and shared pictures to ensure the my puppies stay was comfortable. She had him for 4 days and that days a lot about her. Thank you, Megan.”
“When you book with Susan, the whole family spoils your baby! Pugsley loves them all. Susan kept me reasonably updated with pictures and comments. They even read him a bedtime story! He's on a diet and they did a great job of loving him without excessive treats. He will stay again. Almost forgot. I was given hand-drawn pictures to post by his crate and a lovely keepsake. I'm quite happy!”
“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 🐾”

About: I've had cats my entire life, and I currently have two cats of my own who have very different personalities and don't always get along. Because of this, I'm familiar with all kinds of temperaments and understand that every cat has different needs, boundaries, and routines. Whether your cat is playful and affectionate, shy and reserved, or prefers plenty of personal space, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I'll keep litter boxes clean, make sure fresh food and water are always available, and provide plenty of attention and affection based on your cat's individual personality. As a lifelong animal lover, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I'll treat your cat as if they were my own.
About: Experienced and affordable pet care is here! I have years of pet care experience and I am looking forward to meeting you and helping you with your pet needs. I see to it that pets are well cared for. I make it a priority to see to it that their needs are met in what I do. I take care to listen to instructions and to follow them. In client's homes I treat belongings as my own, if not better. In all cases, pets are well loved. 😍
“Emily was super easy going and we are very grateful for her help while we were gone! We 100% trust her with our pets and will use her going forward. So glad we found her!”
“We had her drop in on our cat while we were out of town and everything was great! She sent plenty of pictures of him laying in her lap and getting lots of cuddles and brought in packages for us. Would definitely use her again!”
“Cortney did a great job letting our dog Val out! We did a meet and greet before and Val immediately loved her! She was on time and followed Val’s eating instructions. We will definitely use her again!”
“Ashley did a fantastic job watching our two dogs! I felt very at ease having her over at our home. I trusted she would take care of them and be attentive to them while we were out town for a long weekend. I would definitely have her back to watch them again!”
“Jessica spent quality time loving on my dogs and quickly picked up on their individual personalities. She was flexible, punctual and highly responsive. I would recommend her to all my friends and absolutely book with Jessica again.”
“Brian came in to take care of our two cats. Great job. Cats were clean and in good shape when we returned home. We feel very confident that our pets and our house are in good hands when Brian is taking care of them. Thanks Brian!”

“I found Emma to be attentive, knowledgeable and confident in her dog care skills. My dog is a rescue and very leery of humans yet Emma was very patient with her and able to win her over. I enjoyed my interaction with her and she was quickly able to win my confidence. 5 stars out of 5!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 10+ years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have experience in changing dog diapers and mouth feeding medicines if necessary. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your doggy. I’m available for boarding any day of the week. The only time your dog will be left alone is when I have to drop and pick up my daughter from school. I have a fenced yard and no pets currently. Unfortunately, my dog passed the beginning of January 2025. However, I do have a 5 year old daughter that loves to play with pets and can keep your pup company. If needed I can easily crate your dog for safety
About: I am that person who just knows, where to scratch, what their favorite treat is, how to cuddle. Some how we fit instantly. I have personally owned and cared for puppies to senior dogs, along with ducks, chickens, horses, rabbits and small nocturnal animals. I work remotely, with a large fenced yard in a quite neighborhood. Currently I am pet free with lots of love to give to yours. My large yard is great for running and playing fetch. Because I have a pool I am cautious not to leave pets out alone. Because I work remotely I am able to continue with any routine set in place. Night cuddler no problem, crate sleeper that is ok too. I have plenty of space and time.
“Destiny was a great baby sitter for Chanel! She provided me updates & pictured throughout the day. I appreciate her taking such great care of Chanel today 🩷”
“Emily was great and communicated well. It was a last-minute request and she made the process super easy. Bubby had a great visit and came home happy! I would definitely recommend!”
“Megan was awesome and very welcoming. It was my first time using Rover and she made sure my 11 week old puppy had a comfortable stay and also got to play with her own puppy. 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.”
“Both were great. Our dog was super happy and exited to be there and get picked up. Will use Robert and Erika more for boarding next time around when we do some traveling to visit family.”
“Charlie loved going to Mallory's Day Care. Each morning he would wag his tail when he saw her. She sent me pictures and updates on his day. I am so happy to have found Mallory for Charlie. I highly recommend her to look after your beloved pets.”
About: I am very picky when it comes to the care of my dogs. They have a specific routine and eating schedule. They are my babies and I care for them as I would care for myself. I will absolutely make sure to do the same for your fur babies as well. I am dedicated to making other owners feel safe just the same as I need when I have to be away from my babies. I work remotely part time and can be available for full time care. I have cameras that I monitor our home. We enjoy going on long walks in the morning and in the evening when the sun begins setting in the heat of summer. In the cooler (not cold or freezing weather) seasons, we go on a mid-day walk and on the really pretty days we love to go for as many walks or adventures that we can. My babies usually get 2-4 20 to 30 minute walks per day, more activity outdoor time with beautiful weather. I have 2 dogs at home that eat, walk, play and relax on a routine. I have a safe and secure fenced in yard, but it is small. There is a dog park around the corner and lots of walking trails. I take my dogs on "adventures" and they do have seat belts to keep them safe in the car. Your pets would be a part of our family and I would have them on a similar schedule unless directed to do something different by you. I work less than a mile from my home and have cameras all over my house. I am able to be home within 5 minutes or less if needed when I am away. Walks, outside & play time are very dependent on the weather. We don't go outside in lightning at all or if it is raining weather we only go out back for potty breaks and I look at weather apps multiple times a day because I do have a sweet girl that does not handle storms well at all. We have a dog park in the neighborhood and great walking trails. We go on long adventures as much as possible as long as it is not too hot or cold. Paw pad inspections are done with my bare feet on the concreate before my babies are allowed to walk. My sweet girl is older, so Leia is not able to handle the heat like Kylo. I am also very mindful of this. Your babies would be treated as if they were my babies unless there are other things you need me to do that I am currently not doing for my own.
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: Choose me as your dog sitter for 23 years’ experience, EMT training, CPR certification, and true animal devotion, providing safe, dependable, loving care every single time.

I prioritize safety by following each pet’s routine, monitoring their behavior, and keeping spaces clean. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent communication, and a calm, comfortable environment.

I have separate rooms spaces, ways to make them feel comfortable. Separate eating spaces of needed. I always make sure the pet is always comfortable.

“Tammy and her husband were very sweet and took Bubs and for a daycare visit with last-minute notice when our previous sitter had to cancel. Bubs had a good visit and played with two other really sweet dogs that she was sitting. Tammy was flexible and very easy to get along with.”

About: I now work at PetSmart PetHotel. I am very naturally gifted in taking care of animals and it has been my passion for as long as I have lived. I have the determination to take care of all pets, especially dogs in particular, because they are wonderful and although fun to have do contain responsibilities. I have had many of dogs, as well as I used to pet-sit through Rover in my Parent’s home from age 13-18. I have experience administrating medications to pets with special needs, preparing special/personally formulated, and dietary restrictive foods, and will utilize any treats you leave per request. I will follow instructions thoroughly to try and ensure your pet’s routine is as close to normal as possible, and I would prefer an advanced meet and greet for conversation. I really appreciate honesty and real discussions regarding your dog because it helps me to better care for them. Thank you for considering to let me care for your family member! I am open availability for all services (unless I have a booking!). I am available Sunday through Saturday everyday of the week and all hours necessary! I have a community dog park in my neighborhood. For client’s using their home- I am open to any community parks or just walking through their neighborhood!
About: I've had animals my entire life, and I currently have four dogs and two cats of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I treat every animal as if they were part of my own family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care. I also volunteered at a wildlife sanctuary, where I learned the importance of patience, responsibility, and paying close attention to an animal's needs and behavior. Whether your pet loves playing, going for walks, or simply relaxing and cuddling, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of affection for your furry family members. I work PRN at a hospital, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my availability carefully around bookings. I only accept requests that I know I can fully commit to so that every pet receives the attention and care they deserve. I also have animals of my own, but I'm not the only person caring for them, so their needs won't interfere with my ability to care for your pets. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. When caring for pets in my client's home, I treat both the pet and the home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow the owner's instructions closely, keep pets on their normal routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are away. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to learn their habits, boundaries, and preferences. I prioritize safety by keeping doors and gates secure, following feeding and medication instructions carefully, and providing regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind.
“Thank you for helping us with a last-minute booking! You were so sweet with our fur babies, and we really appreciated your care and flexibility. Happily book again!”

About: 🐾 Where tails wag, paws play, and dogs enjoy their own little vacation! Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I genuinely love. I’ve always had a strong connection with animals and take time to understand each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. Dogs staying with me get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment. I have a yard where pups can safely run, explore, and sniff to their heart’s content. We go on walks tailored to their energy level, play fetch 🎾, practice basic training and commands, and enjoy interactive toys and mental stimulation games. On warm days, dogs can cool off in a kiddie pool or splash around with the hose 💦. My own dog is friendly, well-trained, and comfortable around other dogs, helping create a calm and positive environment. I also offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, so your pet can stay comfortable in their own home if that’s what they prefer. During visits, I make sure they’re fed, let out, played with, and given plenty of attention and care. Whether I’m boarding, walking, visiting, or house sitting, I focus on patience, consistency, and kindness so every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I offer flexible availability throughout the week! I do step out for 3–5 hours a few days per week for work, but I always make sure pets are cared for before and after. I’m available mornings, and evenings and I keep my schedule updated so your pet gets consistent attention and care 💛 In your home and mine, I stick to whatever routine your pets already know—meals, treats, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet time. I make sure they feel comfortable and loved, and I keep your home safe and clean while you’re gone. I send lots of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are happy.
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 I do have to make trips outside of the house 2-6 hours. 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.
“I’m working on a systematic desensitization of one of my dogs and she was so patient with her! I also accidentally sent her to the wrong address and she still came to hang out with my creatures lol”
“Jaime was very understanding when he was at my house to walk my Dozer for the 1st time... seeing how I had a emergency come up and I completely forgot that he was coming to my house. I wasn't there.. but I let him in. He still just let my dozer out to potty even tho my dog was so scared and was running from him. My fault completely.. but Jaime still handled things professionally . I really appreciate you !”
About: Hey there! I'm Emma White & I'm an outgoing, goofy pet lover. Since I was little, I've had a special place in my heart for animals. I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of animals & getting to know their individual personalities, routines, & needs. I've cared for dogs, cats, fish, frogs, lizards, turtles, guinea pigs, chickens, & goats. I love getting outside, playing, & giving pets plenty of attention. I'm no stranger to nervous or shy pets, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, & building trust at their own pace. I also have personal experience with large breeds, including English Mastiffs & Great Danes (they're secretly just big babies!). I have experience caring for pets with additional needs, including GI issues, allergies, vision or hearing impairments, & special dietary requirements. I'm comfortable following specific feeding instructions, medication schedules, & other care routines. I'm also Animal CPR certified, so I understand how to properly care for unexpected situations. I want you to feel just as comfortable as your pet does, so I provide regular updates & photos to keep you in the loop & give you peace of mind while you're away. Whether your pet needs an energetic playmate, a patient companion, or simply someone reliable to keep them happy, comfortable, & cared for, I'd love the opportunity to meet them! I have a pretty flexible schedule working from home. I’m able to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, & check-ins. I’m also happy to work around a pet’s normal routine & make sure they get the consistency & care they’re used to! I like to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible, especially when they’re staying in their own home. Whether sticking to specific feeding times, medications, walks, or other care routines, I focus on not missing any details. During drop-ins, I make sure to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, & companionship rather than simply checking in and leaving. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I keep things tidy, follow any household instructions, and ensure pets feel comfortable & cared for. You can expect regular updates & photos so you know your pets & home are in good hands.
About: Ever since I could remember, I have been raised in a household with multiple dogs. I was allowed to supervise them while my parents would go on vacations, which was always a blast. While working for Rover, I have gained much experience handling elderly animals, administering oral medications, and learning how to bond with even the most timid animals. I love working with dogs and cats since it is a rewarding experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I work as a Rover pet sitter and dog walker while completing my online master’s program. I have flexibility throughout the week to schedule walks, drop ins, and pet sitting visits around my coursework. I do ask for about two days notice when possible so I can plan ahead and set aside dedicated time for each pet. I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care while balancing my school schedule. I am also very strict with frequent restroom breaks for the pets so they don't experience discomfort under my care. If needed, I can administer oral medications to both cats and dogs. In addition, I'm always careful with animals and their body language. Your pet must be feeling safe and comfortable with me, so I always encourage owners to meet with me for a meet and greet before I begin visits!
“Was very helpful accepting my request last minute. Came here for a meet and greet and was very curious about any potential trial issues my dog may have while out on walks. Was very good at communicating when she was coming and when she arrived and even saved me when I accidentally overlooked that she was booked for ongoing walks and a payment was submitted that should not have gone through. Highly recommended from this customer. Hard to find someone willing to take on the challenges of walking a large breed Cane Corso like mine.”
About: I grew up in 4-H around all types of pets. I’ve had chickens, rabbits, dogs, cats, birds, and snakes. I’m more than comfortable with larger animals as well such as horses, cows, sheep, donkeys, and goats. Any pet, any age, any needs. I’m here to make sure your pet gets the right type of care! I work part time and can stop by for your pets as often as I’m able, typically no longer than 6 hours between visits. I’m also able to stay with your pet at your home overnight. Every pet needs something different. If your pet needs extra attention, medication, lots of play time, or has any special needs, I’m more than happy to cater to your pets specific needs.
About: I’ve owned animals of many kinds since I was born, and been a primary caretaker since I was about 10! I’ve been trusted to care for animals of every age - from rambunctious puppies and kittens to seniors who need a little more patience - and every size, whether it be a giant dog or a fragile kitten. I understand the importance of individual care, so I am ready to learn all about your animals and adapt to their needs. Additionally, I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant and have experience with many basic care skills. I am familiar with routine care such as feeding routines, walking, bathing, and training. I have ample experience with oral, injectable, and topical medications, and can confidently administer first aid if necessary. Additionally, I am ready to slow down and give extra care to any senior or special needs animal who may need a little more attention. I hope to make every pet feel as safe and comfortable as possible while in my care, and will make sure to keep you updated with pictures! I currently attend college in another town, so I am not available during the week. But from around 5pm Friday to Sunday, I am prepared to give my full attention to your pets! While I don’t offer sitting in my home due to my own dogs, I am confident I can adapt to whatever routine your animals are used to in your home. Whether they are high maintenance or totally chill, I am willing to provide whatever necessary to make sitting as stress-free as possible!
About: I have taken care of all breeds of puppies for for 20 years. I have treated injuries, bathed and fed them! I am excited to help! If you need your sweet pup cared for from my home, I am available full-time! If I come to you, it will be a part-time job! I will maintain a safe and healthy environment for your sweet puppy! I will make sure to get down and pet your pup, so that they will know that I am a safe and kind friend!

I am also very mindful of this. Your babies would be treated as if they were my babies unless there are other things you need me to do that I am currently not doing for my own.
“Dawn is the best! My two beagles love her! They are two rescues and usually very suspicious of people but Dawn, with her kindness, loving, attentive ways was able to connect with them immediately. She is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond to provide excellent care to my girls. Dawn looks after my babies frequently and treats them like they're her own. I wouldn't trust anyone else to do it!”

“Jennifer has been amazing with dog sitting our dog for the holidays. Her and her family were even able to accommodate when we needed an extra day and still drop him off. Can’t recommend her and her family enough”

“Shirley is a kind and compassionate person who was willing to take on my grand dog I just inherited. I did not know that much about Lola’s behaviors with other dogs or how she would be away from me. Shirley understands the need to pay attention and let the dog show you what they need. It was a successful experience for both Lola and I and I look forward to our next visit.”
“Michele was very attentive and sent us lots of pictures to keep up with what the dogs were doing. They seemed to have a great time in the big back yard. We will be using Michele again and we’re so happy to have a great option close to our house.”
“Darren and his family took great care of Teddy! Darren made sure Ted took his allergy medicine, and we loved getting the pictures of the kids interacting with our pup! We would be happy to book with Darren again.”

“I can't express how awesome Michele is!! Took care of our puppy the whole week and loved him as her own dog, took him for daily walks, and played with her dog. Not only that, but every day she sent pictures assuring us that he was doing well and wishing us to enjoy our vacation. Also, her husband, Jeff is amazing and loved our dog very much!! Thank you, guys! 🤍🤍🤍😊”
“My boy had the best time with Mary and Robert! Lots of walks, cuddles, play time, and naps. Mary responded very promptly with photos whenever I reached out to check on Danny. I brought home a happy and healthy boy, would definitely book with them again!”
“Courtney and her family were amazing with our pup while we were away for the weekend. They treated her like one of their own—even letting her sleep in their bed! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands.”
“Ann paid very special attention to our dogs and made sure to keep us updated multiple times every day! The dogs were brought on multiple walks/play sessions a day, and I felt comfortable on my trip knowing that someone capable and caring was watching my pups :)”
“We left our two dogs with claire for the first time . We had never left them and felt nervous leaving them but claire and her husband both mad us feel super comfortable with the process. They kept sending updates and pictures that made me feel good knowing my doggies were in good care. I will definitely use them again. Totally recommend.”

“Rhonda is a warm and caring dog lover! She was very attentive to my puppy's needs and was prompt in communicating any answers to the questions I asked her. My puppy came home in a great mood and I could tell she had a wonderful day at Rhonda's house, playing with her dog and napping and being silly.”
“When you book with Susan, the whole family spoils your baby! Pugsley loves them all. Susan kept me reasonably updated with pictures and comments. They even read him a bedtime story! He's on a diet and they did a great job of loving him without excessive treats. He will stay again. Almost forgot. I was given hand-drawn pictures to post by his crate and a lovely keepsake. I'm quite happy!”
“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 🐾”
