Theresa took excellent care of Lucy. Very happy with our experience and would totally have our dog stay there again. She was enthusiastic of a meet in greet, wanted to learn about our dog, accommodated refrigerated food, very communicative throughout the stay, and Lucy seemed very happy there! Thanks so much, Theresa!

I travel a lot with my 3 year old English Cocker and I’m always looking for quality people to care for him while I’m at work - and I can’t recommend Emily enough! We have utilized her boarding services several times and each time Gus has not even noticed that I was gone! He’s always very happy to be dropped off and Emily always takes the greatest pictures of him and keeps me well updated! I’m a consistent return customer and very, VERY happy with the care my dog receives when under her wing!

Our two small dogs have always had anxiety and fear around other dogs, especially big dogs but Samantha was able to not just acclimate our dogs but to provide a wonderful environment for them to feel safe and loved. It is clear that she cares for all the dogs (and the cat) in her care. We always looked forward to the daily photos but to see the ones where our dogs were playing with the other dogs and always so happy in her home alleviated all worries as we had never boarded our dogs before. They had always stayed with family or long-time friends but we moved to a new city and these options no longer existed. We found the right person when searching for a service. Samantha and her family are terrific. We highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.

Per usual Ashley was amazing! She's always so accommodating and has certainly earned herself a repeat client. Even when we had to pick up our dog due to a delayed flight, Ashley was so willing to work with us and oue changing schedule. Brooklyn has certainly made herself at home with Ashley and her family, and we're so happy to have found a petsitter we 100% trust and will continue to use. :)

They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive.

About: The house my parents moved into when I was only 4 weeks old was unfortunately a dumping ground for unwanted animals. Before I could even walk, I was cuddling with any animal that showed up at our door. This instilled a passion within me that I can finally turn into a profession. From Rescue and fostering to training dogs and showing horses, animals have always been a huge part of my life. In addition to my Management degree, I have an Associate of Science Degree with a major in Animal Science and a specialization in Agriculture. I completed an AKC handlers’ course which focused on reading your dog’s body language to understand their needs. Being so heavily involved in rescue, I have history and experience in dealing with reactive and/or selective dogs. I have many safety features depending on the animals needs including crates, double hung baby gates and 6 ft chain link fence that is separated into two yards. I also offer pet waste removal services. Feel free to send me a note if you have any questions. After a successful 25year business management career, I am now turning my lifetime passion of animal care into a profession. This year I started up my own business, "G'MA DOES". I offer a range of services from dog walking and pet sitting to animal waste removal. I like to stay active! While I have learned a tremendous amount of knowledge from multiple trainers, what I hold most dear is the ongoing information I take in from animal behaviorists such as Cesar Millan. Remember, when you first meet a strange dog practice NO TOUCH, NO TALK, NO EYE CONTACT! *LICENSED AND INSURED* In my house we call it "FURniture" for a reason. I use the "crate and rotate" regimen as needed and for feeding. I also have baby gates at every doorway. My entire backyard is a 6 ft chain length fence and I have it separated into two secured areas for exercise. Inside, one room is a dedicated cat room for litterboxes toys etc. The other two bedrooms will be dedicated safe spaces used for play, overnight stays, or whatever the situation calls for.

She is someone who is incredibly devoted to animals; her dedication and love are boundless. I had the absolute best experience knowing that Mia was staying in a home filled with plenty of attention, patience, and love. Karlie is always in constant communication, too. She has dogs of her own, and they truly made Mia's stay much more fun, as Mia is super friendly. Mia returned home ready to sleep and rest after days filled with fun and endless running around—in fact, she didn't even want to leave, given how wonderfully she had been treated at Karlie's house!

I just so enjoy being with them and I have a very flexible work schedule so I can always help take care of your furry friend! I work from home and can always set my own schedule so I can be available almost anytime. I will make it a priority to take care of your dog. I have a pig named Beaker living with me and he has a wonderful personality and lives all other dogs. I’ll happily follow any directions you have for your baby and live to play with dogs in any fashion.

I’m a teacher, so my summers give me full flexibility to care for your animals! I love to walk dogs on local greenways and trails. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog can play. If they like to play with a buddy, my dog will be their best friend!

Kim was fantastic watching my two cats! I was gone for a little under a week and she was attentive to them and played with them when they wanted during her drop-ins. They both were happy when I came back and one who doesn't eat a lot when I'm gone had eaten more food than typical, so that was fantastic! I will definitely consider Kim in the future.

Becca really cares about your pets and makes sure they eat, they play, they are cleaned up, and that your house is just the way you left it. Also writes the best updates and let’s you know exactly what your pets are up to while you’re away. I’d give 10 stars if I could. She is the best!

About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.

From the first text interaction with Kimberly to meeting in person - we knew that we found someone we could trust!

About: You can trust your pup with me! My love for dogs and animals started when I was a child and has grown into a deep bond and genuine care for every dog I meet. I truly go above and beyond when it comes to pet care — and in my book, a little spoiling is always included. ;) I’ve had decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs since 2004, from training my first Mini Schnauzer, Ally, as a puppy to providing specialized senior care as she got older. In 2009, my husband and I rescued our first senior Schnauzer, Smokey, and cared for him through several medical issues including seizures, gastroenteritis, and inner ear infections. I’m extremely attentive to a dog’s needs, personality, comfort, and safety, and I always stay alert to make sure they’re happy, secure, and out of trouble. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I would care for your dog like one of my own. *Please note: I can only accommodate dogs up to 15 lbs. Requests above this size will be declined. Please do not request bookings for larger dogs. I’m a stay-at-home pet parent, which allows me to give my full attention and care to both my own dog and the pets staying with me. At our home, pets are treated like family and will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and playtime throughout the day. We have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time, potty breaks, and play, but dogs will always be supervised while outside. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, comfort level, routines, and needs to help them feel safe and relaxed while away from home. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I’m happy to accommodate their routine as closely as possible. I also understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attentiveness, especially for senior dogs or pets with special needs.

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and 15 years of experience caring for pets. I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior and compassionate care to every pet I meet. I grew up with animals and currently have a three-year-old dog whom I trained myself, making me confident in basic obedience training. I have hands-on experience with dogs, including basic training, socialization, and understanding canine body language. I’ve also cared for multiple cats and appreciate their independent yet affectionate nature. From playtime and snuggles to maintaining feeding routines and administering medication when needed, I strive to make every pet feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own—with kindness, respect, and plenty of love. Whether your pet needs active engagement, gentle companionship, or a structured routine, I’m here to provide the care they deserve. As a full-time graduate student in a virtual program, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and consistent care for your pets. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight boarding, I have plenty of time to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m available for boarding both during the week and on weekends, making it easy to accommodate your travel or work schedule. With the ability to be home throughout the day, I can ensure your pet gets regular companionship, exercise, and care. Whether they need structured routines or just lots of cuddles, I’m here to keep them happy and comfortable while you're away. I provide a loving and secure environment for pets in my home, with a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play safely. I also have a friendly, well-socialized three-year-old poodle who enjoys the company of other dogs, making for great companionship if your pup enjoys socializing. I tailor care to each pet’s needs—whether that means plenty of playtime, structured routines, or a quiet space to relax. If needed, I can easily crate your dog for sleeping or downtime to match their usual routine. My goal is to make your pet feel at home while ensuring they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I've had a 91 lb labradoodle from puppy to now for about 4 years. I've also been told that my cat adopted me about 1.5 years ago. My dog is a happy go lucky guy who's never met a person or animal he didn't like. My cat is about 15 years old and requires injectable medication twice a day, so nothing scares me when it comes to medication. I've taken care of the odd African Grey Parrot from time to time as well. I take my dog out every morning, lunch time and several times in the evening for walks and play. Our cat needs medicine twice a day that requires an injection so I'm well versed in providing medication and taking care of animals with special needs. There's a giant pop up blocking what this field is meant to say but it's saying I have to fill it in, perhaps I can update it later when the pop up is gone.

About: Hi, I’m Rosemary! I love animals and have always grown up with birds, hamsters, cats, and dogs! I currently have one dog named Winston who is a sweet Maltese who loves other dogs. I’m very caring and attentive to animals and love making them as comfortable as possible. I grew up with a lot of pets and have always had a great love for them. I am flexible, especially on the weekends! I’m excited to be able to care for other’s pets and make them assured they are fine while their owners are away. I am definitely happy to care for cats as well as any other type of animal - no discrimination! Please let me know how I can help you and get started! I’m looking forward to caring for your furry friend. My schedule is pretty flexible and doesn't change much with another animal since I have my own dog who has his schedule down pretty well. I treat the animals as my own, they are allowed free range of my apartment if the owner wants. My dog is not crated during the day and likes to have a buddy to pal around with and play.

Zoe was great! She was always on-schedule and was very patient with my weird little girl. She does things like hiding when it's time to go out and then pulling a LOT once you finally get her out. But Zoe never complained and always hung around with the baby for a few minutes of love and play after the walk. My schedule has changed and no longer need a dog-walker, but if I ever need one again, will definitely look for her!

About: You can trust your pup with me! My love for dogs and animals started when I was a child and has grown into a deep bond and genuine care for every dog I meet. I truly go above and beyond when it comes to pet care — and in my book, a little spoiling is always included. ;) I’ve had decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs since 2004, from training my first Mini Schnauzer, Ally, as a puppy to providing specialized senior care as she got older. In 2009, my husband and I rescued our first senior Schnauzer, Smokey, and cared for him through several medical issues including seizures, gastroenteritis, and inner ear infections. I’m extremely attentive to a dog’s needs, personality, comfort, and safety, and I always stay alert to make sure they’re happy, secure, and out of trouble. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I would care for your dog like one of my own. *Please note: I can only accommodate dogs up to 15 lbs. Requests above this size will be declined. Please do not request bookings for larger dogs. I’m a stay-at-home pet parent, which allows me to give my full attention and care to both my own dog and the pets staying with me. At our home, pets are treated like family and will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and playtime throughout the day. We have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time, potty breaks, and play, but dogs will always be supervised while outside. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, comfort level, routines, and needs to help them feel safe and relaxed while away from home. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I’m happy to accommodate their routine as closely as possible. I also understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attentiveness, especially for senior dogs or pets with special needs.

Marah is AWESOME! She takes such good care of my dog Mushu! He spent his first time being boarded with her and I felt confident that he would be okay in Marah’s care! I definitely plan on becoming one of her recurring clients!

Our two small dogs have always had anxiety and fear around other dogs, especially big dogs but Samantha was able to not just acclimate our dogs but to provide a wonderful environment for them to feel safe and loved. It is clear that she cares for all the dogs (and the cat) in her care. We always looked forward to the daily photos but to see the ones where our dogs were playing with the other dogs and always so happy in her home alleviated all worries as we had never boarded our dogs before. They had always stayed with family or long-time friends but we moved to a new city and these options no longer existed. We found the right person when searching for a service. Samantha and her family are terrific. We highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.

Kim took amazing care of our frenchie, Elvis! She sent pictures throughout the day to make sure we knew he was doing well. We was very communicative and provided the care our fur baby needed!

Per usual Ashley was amazing! She's always so accommodating and has certainly earned herself a repeat client. Even when we had to pick up our dog due to a delayed flight, Ashley was so willing to work with us and oue changing schedule. Brooklyn has certainly made herself at home with Ashley and her family, and we're so happy to have found a petsitter we 100% trust and will continue to use. :)

Katie and her family were very welcoming when we did the meet and greet. It gave us a lot of confidence in leaving our dog with them for a week! She was very communicative and sent us photos. We would definitely use her again!

Our Golden adjusted very well with Taylor and her family. She sent a picture when we checked in to see how she was doing. We will definitely use Taylor for our next dog sitting needs. Thanks again, Taylor!

They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!

About: The house my parents moved into when I was only 4 weeks old was unfortunately a dumping ground for unwanted animals. Before I could even walk, I was cuddling with any animal that showed up at our door. This instilled a passion within me that I can finally turn into a profession. From Rescue and fostering to training dogs and showing horses, animals have always been a huge part of my life. In addition to my Management degree, I have an Associate of Science Degree with a major in Animal Science and a specialization in Agriculture. I completed an AKC handlers’ course which focused on reading your dog’s body language to understand their needs. Being so heavily involved in rescue, I have history and experience in dealing with reactive and/or selective dogs. I have many safety features depending on the animals needs including crates, double hung baby gates and 6 ft chain link fence that is separated into two yards. I also offer pet waste removal services. Feel free to send me a note if you have any questions. After a successful 25year business management career, I am now turning my lifetime passion of animal care into a profession. This year I started up my own business, "G'MA DOES". I offer a range of services from dog walking and pet sitting to animal waste removal. I like to stay active! While I have learned a tremendous amount of knowledge from multiple trainers, what I hold most dear is the ongoing information I take in from animal behaviorists such as Cesar Millan. Remember, when you first meet a strange dog practice NO TOUCH, NO TALK, NO EYE CONTACT! *LICENSED AND INSURED* In my house we call it "FURniture" for a reason. I use the "crate and rotate" regimen as needed and for feeding. I also have baby gates at every doorway. My entire backyard is a 6 ft chain length fence and I have it separated into two secured areas for exercise. Inside, one room is a dedicated cat room for litterboxes toys etc. The other two bedrooms will be dedicated safe spaces used for play, overnight stays, or whatever the situation calls for.

She is someone who is incredibly devoted to animals; her dedication and love are boundless. I had the absolute best experience knowing that Mia was staying in a home filled with plenty of attention, patience, and love. Karlie is always in constant communication, too. She has dogs of her own, and they truly made Mia's stay much more fun, as Mia is super friendly. Mia returned home ready to sleep and rest after days filled with fun and endless running around—in fact, she didn't even want to leave, given how wonderfully she had been treated at Karlie's house!

About: I’ve had dogs, usually multiple ones, living with me for my entire life. I just so enjoy being with them and I have a very flexible work schedule so I can always help take care of your furry friend! I work from home and can always set my own schedule so I can be available almost anytime. I will make it a priority to take care of your dog. I have a pig named Beaker living with me and he has a wonderful personality and lives all other dogs. I’ll happily follow any directions you have for your baby and live to play with dogs in any fashion.

About: I began volunteering at my local animal shelter at the age of 9 and have been caring for animals ever since. I have 20 years experience pet sitting for neighbors and I have my own 6 year old pitbull, Cleo, so I’m no stranger to energetic dogs. I’m a teacher, so my summers give me full flexibility to care for your animals! I love to walk dogs on local greenways and trails. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog can play. If they like to play with a buddy, my dog will be their best friend!

Very friendly and great communication. Erin sent several pictures throughout the weekend, which was great for my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter. My pup also seemed very happy and cared for while I was away. Highly recommend!!

After a good meet and greet, we used Penny and Evan for our first ever Rover experience with our dog, Libby. She is a sweet, high energy dog. Penny and Evan had a fun week with her. We appreciated the picture updates and knew she was well taken care of throughout the week! Thank you!

My dog loved staying at Rebekah’s! She’s been sleeping since she got back home :) Rebekah prioritizes the animals’ safety and socialization, and I’ll definitely rebook in the future.
