“This was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had on Rover! She picked my dog up on time, sent plenty of pictures, let her play with her puppy and even helped her learn how to use the restroom outside! She was very flexible and handled all of my concerns! 10/10 will be using every time from this point on!”
“I had to leave my very nervous boys for the first time and they did so well! Suzanne was great in providing updates, sending lots of pictures, and adjusting to the needs of the dogs that it made me feel at ease to leave them in her care overnight and just be able to focus on my event. Definitely will bring my boys back to her whenever I need someone to look after them again💓”
“This was Mell’s first stay with Krysta and her family. She was kind enough to offer us a meet and greet two weeks prior to boarding. Mell felt comfortable right away during the meet and greet which I always consider a good sign. Krysta provided me updates and pictures throughout his stay, and asked for any need-to-know information to make his experience a good one. She was also extremely flexible and provided good communication. Thank you for watching Mr. Mellow!”
“Dustin took great care of my dog, Vino. He communicated promptly and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind. This was Vino’s first boarding experience, and it went wonderfully. I will definitely continue using Dustin’s services and highly recommend him.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they’re part of my own family. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the past 7 years. My home is currently filled with 7 animals of my own—2 dogs and 5 cats! They’re definitely my favorite part of home life (other than my husband, of course lol). I regularly care for the pets of my family and friends, including my brother-in-law’s dog, who I watch very frequently, as well as my family’s 2 dogs and cat. I also occasionally care for a close friend’s dog. One of my longer pet-sitting experiences was caring for my cousin’s dog for 3 months while she recovered from a broken leg. We are an extremely pet-friendly household and genuinely love having animals around. When friends come over, we’re always telling them to bring their pets! My schedule is currently completely open, and as an at-home wife, I’m able to be home with your pets for the majority of the day most days. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles so your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals and would love the opportunity to get to know your pets and their individual personalities and routines. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Our home is a very pet-friendly and welcoming environment, and our own pets are a huge part of our everyday life. We currently have 2 dogs and 5 cats, so we’re very comfortable with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I’m an at-home wife, I’m home the majority of the day and can provide frequent supervision, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We also live right next to a park and creek, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time for pets who enjoy exploring. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand and make sure we have a plan that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. For pets who need or are more comfortable with their own separate space, we also run available to set up kennel(s). I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable environment. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, supervised, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me.
“This was my first time leaving my doggies with Mikaela while out on a work trip. I felt very at ease with her and her beautiful family. She is definitely very caring, responsive and attentive. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Lindsey was absolutely awesome with watching our dog Ace. She’s super responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Ace always has an absolute blast when he stays with her and he always get excited when I pull up in the driveway. Whether its playing with other dogs, fetch, walking or going on runs… Lindsey and her family will make sure your dog never has a dull day and plenty of stimulation.”
“My dog came home so happy. Tatum is the best. She sends everyday a picture of my dog while walking to the dog park, sleeping after a long day. I know shes well taking care of. she cleans all her stuff before going home. I cant say thank you enough.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and it was AMAZING. Many thanks to Sarah V. BE-G was so well-cared for; she returned happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun she had. BE-G is already looking forward to her next stay. 😊”
“Candice was very kind and sweet with Louie. Louie is older and at times is anxious. He seemed to get along well with the other dogs. Will definitely request Candice again, if she is willing.”
“Kristi was amazing and very accommodating to our dogs needs. They had a great time and were very well taken care of. I definitely recommend Kristi to take care of your fur babies.”
“My dogs were healthy, happy, and smelled so nice when I picked them up! Nicole took good care of them and even gave them treats for the road. Next time I need to board my dogs, I will be contacting Nicole!”
“Omg Kaylee was absolutely AMAZING!!! Literally booked her last minute for my Great Dane, which let me tell you finding a reputable sitter/boarder is almost impossible for my big baby! She was so accommodating and sweet! Zeus was so well taken care of and she sent plenty of updates. This is his mew home away from home. I will never use the vet boarding when Kaylee is available, that’s a no brainer.”
“Martha G made our fur babies feel right at home! We are confident that she took care of their needs. Highly recommended her services. We will definitely use her again and appreciate her patience as our dogs adjusted to the stay.”

“Suzanne was very friendly and did an excellent job caring for and loving on my cat when I was away. I will definitely keep her in mind for the future and recommend her to others.”
“Just left my five month kitten, and his 14 year old brother ,for the first time. Lilianais took really good care of them and my plants. She is definitely a cat lover! I got my updates as planned and she answered all my questions. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Rebecca cared for our three cats for about a week and a half, doing drop ins every other day. She was kind and communicative from start to finish, and went above and beyond to keep us and our kitties happy including lots of playtime, topping off food and water, and even watering a plant for us and bringing packages inside. Would book her again for future travel!”
“We are so grateful that we found Kayla to take care of our four kitties while we were on vacation. This was our first time using someone we did not know personally to take care of them, and she was wonderful. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: I’ve had cats for the past 7 years and currently have 5 cats of my own (Charlie, Scarlett, Mousse, Bandit, and Butter), so cats are a very big part of my everyday life! I’ve always loved their individual personalities and quirks, and I’m very comfortable giving cats the patience and space they need to feel safe and comfortable. I also have a bit of a habit of becoming the neighborhood cat sitter! I regularly look after cats in my neighborhood and love getting to know all of their different personalities. I have a bit of a cat weakness lol. I’ve also cared for friends’ cats, including one very special Maine Coon who has some health problems. She has become one of my favorite cats in the world, and caring for her has given me experience with being attentive to a cat’s individual health needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether your cat is social and loves attention, playful and curious, shy and needs some patience, or prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they are. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. The only service I’m unable to offer for cats is boarding them in my home. Since I have 5 cats of my own, I know how territorial cats can be, and I don’t want to put a visiting cat in an environment that could be stressful or uncomfortable for them. Instead, I’m happy to provide drop-in visits or care in your home, where your cat can stay in their own familiar and comfortable environment. I think this is often the best option for cats, especially those who are more independent or easily stressed by changes in their surroundings.
“Jasmine was an amazing care taker! She took the time to make sure my cats were well taken care of and provided great communication. Titan and Aspen were so happy to have her come by”
About: Hey there! Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. The unconditional love they give us is just a great feeling. So a little about me, I went to Tarleton State for Animal Science. I want the animals to be comfortable with me and in the environment. Animals deserve extra love and attention, specially when you’re busy all day or going out of town. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician with animals for 8+ years, as well as taking care of animals outside of work. I love all sorts of animals and think they deserve the same care as humans get! Dogs have feelings too! I believe animals need to go out a lot and get exercise as well as socializing. Dogs need just as much love as we need! I will always try to accommodate my schedule to make sure the fur babies have plenty of time to get some fresh air, potty break and some love during the day! When I care of clients fur babies, I always make sure to follow your guidelines with your babies. That being if they needed to be leash walked or they get to run free in the yard.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals on my family’s farm over the past 8 years. I've helped take care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, and cows, which has taught me a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and how to handle animals with different needs and temperaments. As a college student home for the summer, I fit pet care into my daily routine by planning around my work schedule and training. I work as a lifeguard in Temple and I'm a college athlete so I must get my workout in each day. I make time for feeding, walking, or checking in on pets, depending on what's needed. My schedule is flexible in the summer months. I ensure they have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, with fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and plenty of love and attention. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including medication, dietary needs, or favorite toys and activities. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply offering companionship, I prioritize each pet’s well-being as if they were my own.
“Whitney provided excellent care. She sent photos and kept me up to date on my kitties care. She went above and beyond by checking our automated litter box and changing the bag. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: Reliable, active, and caring dog sitter who treats every pup like family. I provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a teacher and volleyball coach, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. My schedule is built around responsibility, consistency, and staying active, which makes pet care a natural fit. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening check-ins, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I follow your pet’s normal routine; such as feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles; while keeping your home tidy, secure, and filled with comfort in your absence
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where caring for a variety of animals was part of everyday life. My experience also includes working as a wrangler out West, where I handled and cared for horses and livestock in a professional setting. From puppies and dogs to larger animals, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. At home, I have an energetic English Springer Spaniel puppy who loves making new friends and playing with other dogs. We have a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active playtime, or just extra attention and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re with me. Daily updates and photos are always included so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work outside the home from typically 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM on weekdays and am typically home the rest of the day. This allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets in my care, including walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. My evenings and weekends are largely spent at home, ensuring your pet receives plenty of companionship and care throughout their stay. Pets are cared for in a safe, calm home with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. When I’m away at work, all pets stay safely inside. I maintain a structured, secure environment and provide attentive care based on lifelong animal experience, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart is my experience across all life stages, from energetic puppies needing structure to gentle seniors requiring extra patience. I confidently provide puppy training support and am fully comfortable administering oral medications. Your pet will receive the precise, dedicated care they need to feel safe and happy Pet care is the central focus of my daily routine, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, your pet will enjoy constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule allows me to easily maintain your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication routines without interruption. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow their familiar routine to minimize stress, keeping feeding, walks, and oral medication times exact. Whether hosting or visiting, I prioritize clear communication and always send daily photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and thriving.

I’ve raised other animals in FFA for my high school years while alson having other house hold pets within the years ( rabbit, turtle, dogs, and fish).

“My baby boy LOVEEESSS Suzanne! She always brings him treats and goes on mile long walks that he absolutely enjoys. She is like a part of our family and we are blessed to have her.”
About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.

We have a park right by our house to walk and intact with other dogs. You dog would have the opportunity to run around play on our property where we would take your dog for a walk and play. Although we both work full time we would make your fur babies our top priority. Our house is puppy/ dog proof. We want you to feel comfortable with us as well as allowing us to take care of your baby.
About: I specialize in premium, detail-oriented care for dogs that need both a physical outlet and mental enrichment. Whether your dog is a social butterfly or a sensitive soul who needs a little extra grace, I tailor my approach to ensure they are tired, happy, and secure by the time you get home. Having managed the pulling power of large breeds and raised reactive, high-drive mixes, I know firsthand that not every dog is an easy walker. I bring a calm, highly disciplined, and observant approach to every visit. What truly sets me apart is my commitment to not just your pet's well-being, but your total peace of mind. My Special Skills & Premium Services Include: High-Drive & Large Breed Management: Confident, safe leash-handling and focused exercise for powerful working breeds and strong pullers. Behavioral Reinforcement: Utilizing consistent positive reinforcement, professional handling techniques, and keen observation of canine body language. Reactive Dog Handling: Creating safe, predictable, and low-stress environments for anxious or sensitive dogs. The "Extras" Standard: Going above and beyond with thorough post-visit clean-ups, basic maintenance brushing, and exceptional respect for your home. Unmatched Communication: Providing highly detailed updates and quality photos so you never have to guess how your pet's day is going. I am dedicated to building long-term bonds and am currently prioritizing clients looking for reliable, recurring weekly walks and drop-ins. Pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it is my full-time profession! As the owner and operator of A&A Professional Pet Care, my entire week is built around providing exceptional, highly reliable care for your pets. I am officially accepting new clients in the Temple area starting September 21st, and I am here to stay! Here is how my schedule works to serve you and your pets: Consistent, Recurring Schedules: My primary focus is establishing reliable, weekly routines for walks and drop-ins. I want to become a consistent, trusted fixture in your dog's week, giving busy professionals total peace of mind. Dedicated Midday Care (9 AM - 5 PM): I am available Monday through Friday to provide the perfect midday break. Whether your dog needs an engaging walk, a structured drop-in, or focused mental enrichment while you work, I have you covered. Select Weekend Coverage: I offer weekend care on a rotating basis, providing trusted drop-in coverage for those busy Saturdays or quick weekend getaways. Whether I am taking your dog for an engaging walk, visiting for a midday drop-in, or providing extended in-home care, your pets and your property are treated with the highest level of respect. My approach to pet care combines physical exercise with targeted mental engagement. I love incorporating short, positive training sessions and enrichment games into our day to keep their minds sharp. They will get plenty of scheduled feedings and "tummy rub" downtime, but they will also get the structure and focused play they need to stay happy and appropriately tired out. When caring for pets in your home, my "extras" are standard. You can expect: Total Home Respect: I leave your home exactly as I found it—or cleaner! This includes thorough post-walk wipe-downs so muddy paws never track through your house. Premium Upkeep: I am happy to provide basic maintenance like brushing to keep your pet's coat looking great between grooming appointments. Complete Peace of Mind: You will never have to wonder how things are going. I provide comprehensive, highly detailed updates and quality photos after every single visit. Your dog won't just be watched; they will be active, engaged, and exceptionally well cared for.
About: I have had pets my whole life, coworkers and friends rely on me to help care for their pets while they’re gone. I have all kinds of experience with more than cats and dogs. I am a stay at home mom. I adjust to things as need be. Consistency is key but things happen sometimes. We have a fairly routine household. I keep pets on leashes at all times. Things can happen or other animals can come by. I am very easy going with the needs of each fur baby.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals on my family’s farm over the past 8 years. I've helped take care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, and cows, which has taught me a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and how to handle animals with different needs and temperaments. As a college student home for the summer, I fit pet care into my daily routine by planning around my work schedule and training. I work as a lifeguard in Temple and I'm a college athlete so I must get my workout in each day. I make time for feeding, walking, or checking in on pets, depending on what's needed. My schedule is flexible in the summer months. I ensure they have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, with fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and plenty of love and attention. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including medication, dietary needs, or favorite toys and activities. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply offering companionship, I prioritize each pet’s well-being as if they were my own.
About: Reliable, active, and caring dog sitter who treats every pup like family. I provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a teacher and volleyball coach, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. My schedule is built around responsibility, consistency, and staying active, which makes pet care a natural fit. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening check-ins, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I follow your pet’s normal routine; such as feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles; while keeping your home tidy, secure, and filled with comfort in your absence
About: I have many years of caring for various animals, I have a deep understand of animal behavior, particularly from my background in Animal Scienve, and my genuine love for animals. Having grown up on a farm I have many skills including how to administer medications to any animal. I strive to make an stress-free, and cozy environment for every pet! I am currently in school, but only have in person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays! I am available during the week and most weekends to take care of your babies😊 I have a fenced in backyard that your pet will be able to use anytime! I also have two dog parks in my apartment complex that can be used to get some exercise as well as a long walking trail!
About: I have had animals my entire life and currently have 5 dogs, 5 cats and a horse. My full time job is on a farm taking care of horses so I have the ability to administer fist aid and medications and am comfortable with all sizes and shapes of animals. Also have experience with goats and pigs. I currently work part time and travel some for work so my schedule is flexible and easy to work around. I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years. I also have extensive experience with my own pets and different issues they have had through my life.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of every shape and size, i have experience with all health issues and can give meds as well as shots. i can also groom ( 4+ years experience with all breeds) as well as care for your fur babies in any aspect they need! I have a very flexible schedule and can fit any of your time needs. I also can stick to your normal schedule so your dog does not feel out of place. I put your pets as a priority. I have a fenced in yard, and offer leash walking potty breaks. I also have a few pups of mine inside that are friendly and ready to play. I can also offer a crate for your dogs and keep them comfy no matter what they need!
About: I have been in the veterinary setting since I was sixteen and I've been a veterinary technician for a couple years now! I am now focusing on the most important thing in life which is family and I would love to take care of your fur babies when you need it! I am a certified forehead kisser and a great conversationalist with the non-speaking, I do not discriminate on personality and/or breed. I am confident in my ability to make your fur baby feel comfortable in my presence and I can't wait to meet you! I am available early mornings to afternoons until about 3pm-5pm! (Open to longer days depending on your schedule) Weekend availability when needed. As of right now, I am not offering any overnight stays. Before taking care of your pet, I would love to meet them and also have you show me around your home and/or list out any specifications or requirements. (written out instructions are definitely a preference to have on hand!) If you feel comfortable having the pet at my home, I do live in a gated community with plenty of area for walks and outside time! My home is currently run by a cat named James Alexander Malcolm Mackenzie Fraser (bonus points if you know who that is) and he could not care less about dogs so he'll just deliver the constant side eye. I am very comfortable administering medicine if needed (including injections) I do require some form of flea and tick prevention - whether that be Nexgard, Seresto collar, or essential oils.
About: I consider myself the perfect caregiver. Flexible schedule, lots of love, high energy. With references! I have been dog/house sitting for friends regularly for a few years, and a pet enthusiast/caregiver my entire life! I have experience with multiple types of animals. I am a part-time stylist looking to fill my extra time getting paid for something I love to do. My two Siamese cats, Pixie & Dusty, are pretty low maintenance. They have dry food/water dispensers and get wet food as a “treat” at dinner time. My Great Dane puppy, Memphis, needs a little bit more of my time. If I stay over at your house, I need to make sure my dog is kenneled by 8pm, and let out the next morning no later than 6:30am. My schedule is very flexible otherwise! At client’s homes I always follow instructions carefully. I prefer to have a few notes of written instructions to reference. Instructions can be printed out or sent to my phone. My animals are pretty low-maintenance, so if I end up sitting locally at a clients home, it’s not a lot of trouble. I don’t mind sleeping/cuddling with your furbaby at night. ❤️

“This was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had on Rover! She picked my dog up on time, sent plenty of pictures, let her play with her puppy and even helped her learn how to use the restroom outside! She was very flexible and handled all of my concerns! 10/10 will be using every time from this point on!”
“I had to leave my very nervous boys for the first time and they did so well! Suzanne was great in providing updates, sending lots of pictures, and adjusting to the needs of the dogs that it made me feel at ease to leave them in her care overnight and just be able to focus on my event. Definitely will bring my boys back to her whenever I need someone to look after them again💓”
“This was Mell’s first stay with Krysta and her family. She was kind enough to offer us a meet and greet two weeks prior to boarding. Mell felt comfortable right away during the meet and greet which I always consider a good sign. Krysta provided me updates and pictures throughout his stay, and asked for any need-to-know information to make his experience a good one. She was also extremely flexible and provided good communication. Thank you for watching Mr. Mellow!”
“Dustin took great care of my dog, Vino. He communicated promptly and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind. This was Vino’s first boarding experience, and it went wonderfully. I will definitely continue using Dustin’s services and highly recommend him.”
“Excellent communication!! Quick and thorough responses. I got lots of photos and an update each day. My dog was happy and playing when I picked her up. I would definitely book with Angie again!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they’re part of my own family. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the past 7 years. My home is currently filled with 7 animals of my own—2 dogs and 5 cats! They’re definitely my favorite part of home life (other than my husband, of course lol). I regularly care for the pets of my family and friends, including my brother-in-law’s dog, who I watch very frequently, as well as my family’s 2 dogs and cat. I also occasionally care for a close friend’s dog. One of my longer pet-sitting experiences was caring for my cousin’s dog for 3 months while she recovered from a broken leg. We are an extremely pet-friendly household and genuinely love having animals around. When friends come over, we’re always telling them to bring their pets! My schedule is currently completely open, and as an at-home wife, I’m able to be home with your pets for the majority of the day most days. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles so your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals and would love the opportunity to get to know your pets and their individual personalities and routines. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Our home is a very pet-friendly and welcoming environment, and our own pets are a huge part of our everyday life. We currently have 2 dogs and 5 cats, so we’re very comfortable with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I’m an at-home wife, I’m home the majority of the day and can provide frequent supervision, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We also live right next to a park and creek, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time for pets who enjoy exploring. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand and make sure we have a plan that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. For pets who need or are more comfortable with their own separate space, we also run available to set up kennel(s). I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable environment. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, supervised, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me.
“This was my first time leaving my doggies with Mikaela while out on a work trip. I felt very at ease with her and her beautiful family. She is definitely very caring, responsive and attentive. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Lindsey was absolutely awesome with watching our dog Ace. She’s super responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Ace always has an absolute blast when he stays with her and he always get excited when I pull up in the driveway. Whether its playing with other dogs, fetch, walking or going on runs… Lindsey and her family will make sure your dog never has a dull day and plenty of stimulation.”
“My dog came home so happy. Tatum is the best. She sends everyday a picture of my dog while walking to the dog park, sleeping after a long day. I know shes well taking care of. she cleans all her stuff before going home. I cant say thank you enough.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and it was AMAZING. Many thanks to Sarah V. BE-G was so well-cared for; she returned happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun she had. BE-G is already looking forward to her next stay. 😊”
“Candice was very kind and sweet with Louie. Louie is older and at times is anxious. He seemed to get along well with the other dogs. Will definitely request Candice again, if she is willing.”
“Sweet and enthusiastic sitter. Whole family loves dogs. They take great care of our girls. Luna and Nova had lots of fetch and snuggles. I was able to relax on our trip because I knew my dogs were taken care of.”
“My dogs were healthy, happy, and smelled so nice when I picked them up! Nicole took good care of them and even gave them treats for the road. Next time I need to board my dogs, I will be contacting Nicole!”
“Leslie and her husband took AMAZING care of our 2 boys (1yr old lab and 1.5yr old German shepherd). They sent plenty of updates with pictures and videos - and even worked on all of their “tricks” with them. I can definitely say they went above and beyond for our dogs. We've never had a better experience leaving our pups somewhere then we did with Leslie (including family…. ?). I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, safe, and trustworthy dog sitter.”
“She was absolutely amazing with Nova! She took such great care of her and kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Nova was happy, comfortable, and having a wonderful time. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy, and attentive. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Raised an australian shepard pup and kept her occupied and also have dog sat, walked and had sleep overs with from huskies to shelter pups. Never met a dog I didn't like. I have a very open schedule for frequent walk and stop ins. Setting pups up for the night and making sure they are tired from every walk. I always ask what their typical routine is to mimic it in the dogs safe space and am focused on replicating it as well as I can.
