She made me feel so comfortable and took really good care of him while I was getting everything situated. I could tell he was getting a lot of love and attention, and it made me feel a lot better knowing he was in good hands. I’m really thankful for her and would definitely recommend as she treats each dog as her own. Me and Teddy will definitely see her again!”

She completely eased my nerves for our first stay, and I already booked their next trip with her. Honestly, I don’t think they even wanted to leave her house when I picked them up 😂 Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been a vet tech for almost 2years and in process of getting my license, so I deal with cats and dogs on the daily.

I have pretty big gaps between my day schedule, between school and work. I have time for morning, afternoon and night visits. I usually get out of work 830 the latest so medication will be able to be given before too late in the night In the client's home I would normally make sure I can see their pet at all times to guarantee no accidents happen on my watch. I also depending on the breed and personality of the dog will walk them or give them enrichment more often as needed.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Smith Point
“Robin welcomed Lucy right away. She let us see the accommodation and fence so we could be reassured. Lucy seems calm and well cared for. I appreciate the pictures throughout the day.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, patient approach and my focus on understanding each dog’s individual needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior dogs—everything from basic puppy training and crate introduction to administering medications, monitoring mobility, and providing extra comfort for pets. I’m attentive, reliable, and always communicate clearly with owners so you feel connected and confident while you’re away. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I plan my errands and commitments so I’m always available for regular routines, medication schedules, or extra exercise when needed. Caring for pets isn’t something I fit around my life—it’s a core part of my day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible—meal times, walking routes, training rules, and household preferences. I maintain a clean, comfortable environment, provide lots of companionship, and send regular updates so owners feel connected. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and maintain their normal rhythm whether they’re with me or I’m with them
“Laura is absolutely great! I appreciate the updates and photos she sends me. My dog Eli shows excitement when we arrive to her place. I’m very thankful for her and her children’s kindness to both Eli and I . I highly recommend 😊”
“Hunter was an absolute lifesaver! She was available last minute to watch my puppy and did an amazing job. She kept me updated with great communication throughout the stay, and I could tell my pup felt safe and happy with her—she was so excited to see her again the next day! Highly recommend!”
“My puppie seemed to have enjoyed her stay with Katie, Buddy and Bailey. She had a fun filled and was exhausted when she got home. Would use Katie again if the need arises. Thanks a ton Katie.”
“Ariel was the best! Not only did she answer and accept my last minute request at 2:00 a.m. for the same day at 10:00 a.m. in MINUTES, when plans changed, and I asked for my 5 month old puppy to stay for an extra hour and a half, she was more than willing. She provided constant updates and photos throughout the day, and kept my boy entertained (he was exhausted that night- haha). She is truly a life saver. Thank you endlessly, Ariel. Truly! You're the best :)”
“The Newsom family was the best that could have happened for my little Chase for day care. He had an awesome time over there and we are so sad that it was his official last day yesterday. I’m so thankful for their lovely and caring minds! Chase will miss you a lot!”
“Traci, Jason and family were wonderful put sitters. Lily loves a yard, stimulation, and kindness. She enjoyed all three while staying in their home. I would highly recommend this sitter to other Rover patrons. Heather Wooten”

About: I have had many animals throughout my life. I have also cared for friends’ animals when they go out of town. Your fur babies will be well cared for with me! I am a stay at home mom to teenage boys, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am home all day most every day, so you can rest assured your pet is getting one on one attention every day of their stay! I have a fenced yard and a 9-pen boarding facility at my home. Each pen has access to a private, fenced potty area and your dog can either participate in group play or have private one-on-one play if they are more shy.
“We Highly Recommend Heidi! Our dogs love her and get excited when we tell them they are going to Heidi's. She treats them as they are her own and provides excellent care. We receive regular updates and photos via text. They get lots of play time and love time! Whether you live on the island or you come to vacation on the island and need someone to care for your dogs do not hesitate to give Heidi a call. She is worth every penny because we know we can feel comfortable during our time away when Heidi is caring for our sweet babies.”
“Timothy helped us today when we were in a bind at 4:30am to find a sitter for our dog Bullet. And it worked out for us. Thank You Timothy and by the pictures it looked like Bullet enjoyed it. Timothy had great communication with us. Thank You”
About: I went to college for biology and studied Zoology and also went to vet tech college and know about a lot of different types of animals. I worked at Petsmart for 3 years and was the second in command in the pet care department which was taking care of fish, reptiles, birds, and small animals like rats, etc. I had to medicate sick animals and clean cages and tanks every day. I have owned many snakes, lizards, small animals and also birds, but dogs are my love! I love all shapes and sizes of doggies! I'm not scared of any dogs and I work well with them all. I actually specialize in larger dogs that are harder to find boarding for. All dogs make me happy with their unconditional love. I will treat your babies like they are my own. I just have a sweet spot for dogs! And will welcome them into my home! And follow any special instructions I need too. I am a free lance photographer and stay at home almost constantly so can give your fur babies all my attention! Dogs are very important to me and I love having them around and giving them attention and keeping them safe and entertained. I live in a rather large spacious rv/trailer. We have a huge yard with lots of trees and space to run and play. We have a gate but we have not built a fence yet so i usually use leash at all times unless your dog is trained not to run off. We are fixing up our living room area so a little under construction but nothing that could hurt any doggies. Me and my fiance both are home all day and night so we can give plenty of our attention to your babies and take good care of them. I walk them in our big yard every few hours and follow any instructions owners give me about their babies routine and how to take care of them.

All dogs will wear a collar and leash at all times on walks. Making sure dog stays cool and doesn’t over heat. All pets will be kenneled when left unattended for safety purposes.
