“This was the second stay Leo had with Jim. With all the frequent updates and communication, we knew exactly what was going on with our little boy in JIm's sweet home. We felt so lucky to have found a home outside of the home for our little boy. We will definitely book another stay with Jim.”
“Highly recommend you look no further. We used her for boarding this time, and Heather was great with our dogs. She sent pictures as promised, and they always looked very happy. She followed our requests with certain treats and was comfortable with some of their extra needs. She was reasonably priced and flexible with picking up and dropping off the dogs, easing our travel with two young kids. We would happily book with her again for our next trip!”
“Audree was an amazing sitter. This is my second time using her and I will continue to use her. She communicates and sends updates. My furbaby was so excited to see her. It puts my mind at ease knowing he is well taken care of while I’m away. Thank you Audree for your great care once again v”

“After daycare trial we booked Connie for week. I wasn't worried about my dog at all. She had a great time and photo updates gave me peace of mind. We will be booking again.”
“Rebeca and Roman were excellent hosts for our Addie. She had a great time socializing with their dogs and we got regular updates and photos while Addie spent two full weeks with them. We'd happily use their services again in the future.”
“Rosalina was amazing! She saved our life as we had an emergency which had us looking for a puppy sitter last minute and Rosalina responded within 10 minutes and quickly agreed to watch our puppy. Her family was so welcoming, she sent pictures every few hours with updates, and responded fast if u asked any questions. We will for sure reach out to Rosalina for any future needs!”
“This was Caesar's second visit and I must say that's I'm very pleased with the level of care that was provided for our fur baby. I'm a little protective over Caesar but he is comfortable with Amber & family and it brings me alot of comfort and peace. Thank you for what you do!”
“I am sorry Laurie that I am so late, with this review. Laurie is such a sweet woman. She took such good care of my Lyric. I have only used one pet sitter to keep Lyric since she was 3 months old and I was nervous about taking her to anyone else. Well Laurie treated Lyric like one of her own and Lyric was enjoying herself the entire time. Laurie kept me posted the entire visit with pics, texts and videos. Thank you Laurie for being such a kind soul.”
“Heather was great! She took great care of our dog, who has the extra complication of needing medicine twice a day. Very friendly and kept us updated while we were gone. We will be bringing Pippa here again!”
“1st time using this service and was extremely happy with the care Tamara provided. She was accommodating to a last minute booking and her communication was quick, responsive and thorough. I received multiple updates, pictures and videos. My puppy had a blast playing with her dogs and came home happy and exhausted.”
“Julie was very friendly and took very good care of Volt. She was very responsive and sent pictures and updates frequently. Volt seems to have really liked her and her pets. Will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for boarding their pets.”
“Chaoran was such a lovely sitter for our dog,Miso. We loved receiving the daily updates and photos of our dog while we were out of town. I highly recommend Chaoran and would use her again when we need a pet sitter!”
“Kay and Marc were fantastic! They took excellent care of my two dogs and treated them like family. Kay updated me every day and sent pictures. I will continue to use Marc and Kay every time I’m away. Without hesitation, I strongly recommend Kay and Marc!”
“Couldn’t be more happy with Ashley’s boarding services. She kept me updated with messages and pictures, got more food when my girl was out, and even offered to clip Gamora’s nails. Which by some miracle her and her boy friend were able to. They are an amazing team and very clearly love the pets under their care. Excited because I travel regularly for work and it’s a huge relief to know that Gamora will always be in good hands.”
“Richard and his family were the perfect fit for our dog, Honey! Honey is a 15 year old, small dog who has recently gone deaf. She struggles with other dogs and I was having a hard time finding someone who would only take one dog at a time. Then I found Richard! Honey felt right at home with them. I loved the picture and video updates each night. She returned home happy, healthy and ready to play. Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet old girl!”
“Joanna was so loving with my dog and greeted her with so much affection. I felt completely at ease while I was out for the day, knowing that she was being cared for by Joanna. I would book her again in a heartbeat.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Leslie provided for our dog, Siku, over the 9 days we were away. From the very beginning, Leslie was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease leaving Siku in her care. Throughout our trip, Leslie kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant so much to us. It was clear that Siku was not only well cared for, but also happy and comfortable. When we returned, Siku was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been given lots of attention and love. Leslie truly went above and beyond, and we are so grateful to have found someone we trust. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter—and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

The fact that she is bilingual adds even more value to her work. Thank you so much, Melissa! 🙏🏼”

About: I currently own multiple cats, ranging from special needs to young kittens, I foster and have medication administration experience with pills to insulin, I’m a big cat guy and love any type of cat sweet or sour I’m happy to meet them
About: I’ve mostly taken care of small creatures on my lifetime. I used to own parakeets and currently I own a leopard gecko whom I absolutely adore! I always wanted to own cats and/or dogs growing up but I’ve never been allowed to do that because my mom is irrationally afraid of both. I used to own a kitten but we had to give it away because my mom thought she could handle it but she was just too scared of it. I’ve taken care of other people’s cats and dogs before and I get along well with all
About: I have been taking care of the animals of close friends and family since I was 19 years old. In addition to taking care of cats and dogs, I am also an experienced farm hand. I have taken care of horses, chickens, donkeys, and Alpacas. Whatever your pet needs are, I can do it. I am currently doing volunteer work on Tuesdays, but am available every other day of the week. Early mornings and afternoons work best for me, but I am available later in the evening when needed I can do feedings, walks, drop ins, and full night stays. I can also administer oral medication. I have a dog of my own and she gets daily medication I give her myself.

“Brenda stopped by our home to check on our kitties and make sure they were fed and given some love! She took a bunch of photos and did everything I asked and was very punctual. She was quick to respond and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who was looking for a trustworthy person to stop by while they’re away!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life. In the last few years I've boarded over 30 dogs at the house. I've completed over 250 services on wag with dogs, cats, and a pig while maintaining a perfect 5.0 rating. References available upon request. Pet care is my full time job. Dogs will have free range around the house and I'm with them 100% of the time unless I have to go walk another dog.

We have a nice trail by the house which my dog and I walk about 5 miles a day on.

“m was incredibly accommodating and kind while caring for Sammi during daycare while I ran errands. Since Sammi is recently post-op, I was nervous about leaving her, but Jim was more than willing to learn exactly how to care for her and follow all of her special instructions. He was patient, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I really appreciated how understanding he was of her needs during recovery. I would absolutely trust him with Sammi again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable and compassionate care”
“This was my first experience with Rover, and I chose to book with Heather due to her exceptional 5-star ratings. Now, I'm thrilled to contribute another 5-star review myself. My dog was quite anxious during drop-off, being away for the first time, but Heather's continuous updates and photos of Joy throughout the day were incredibly reassuring. Witnessing my dog's evident happiness upon pick-up affirmed that she had been expertly cared for. Without a doubt, I'll be rebooking with Heather in the future.”
“Tracey is our life saver! We can always count on her to watch our fur baby, Bix. Bix always looks happy with tail wagging when we pick her up, giving Tracey a few hops and kisses before we take her home. Thank you, Tracey, for taking such good care of our dog.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about 8 years.I have a one year old golden who loves to play.We play outdoors multiple times a day. Currently stay at home mom. Son starts school in August. Available to walk, pet sit any time. Our dog eats twice a day. He free roams the back yard. We occasionally go out hiking and bring our dog with us. Fenced in yard,free roam the house. At night time our dog sleeps in a playpen but sometimes he sleeps in our room. We have dog beds all over the house.
“My pup had an amazing day with Audree. Her tail was wagging when she left. It was so nice to see the pictures throughout the day and then see my pup’s face at pick up - confirming her enjoyment. She was comfortable enough to take a long nap on her first stay. That’s really telling me she was comfortable.”
“Your pup will have a great time at Ms Jessica's! She is a pleasure to work with - clear, communicative, prompt and provides a fun and enriching time for the dogs in her care. My dog has GRRRREAT time when stays with her! He comes home happy and tired each time.”
“Laurie is great! She really cares for the dogs and it shows. She sent lots of pictures and Maggie had a wonderful time. Maggie is looking forward to her next daycare visit.”
“Yulissa was very friendly and really cared and took care of my pup while I was away. She was also very flexible and was able to accommodate a schedule shift when my plans went a bit longer than expected. 10/10!”
“This was a great day for my baby! This was her first day away from after not even having her a week. I really appreciated the pictures and messages when I was at work. Made me feel more at ease.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life, with dogs being a big part of that experience. I’ve owned dogs of my own for years, volunteered with local animal shelters, and fostered dogs, puppies, and kittens with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also cared for my own senior dogs and reactive dogs through different medical needs, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to changes in behavior or routine. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies, kittens and energetic young dogs to seniors who need a slower pace and extra care. I take the time to understand each as an individual and provide a balance of exercise, enrichment, structure, affection, and plenty of downtime. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and enrichment, and I can adjust to each pet’s usual routine as much as possible. I’m also able to accommodate different schedules and will communicate with you about your pet’s routine before their stay so they can feel comfortable and settled in my home! My priority is providing a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Before a stay, I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medical or behavioral considerations. For boarding and daycare, I use gradual introductions and closely supervise interactions with my own dogs. I’m also happy to provide separate spaces, feeding areas, and downtime when needed. Over the years, I’ve fostered dogs, puppies, kittens, and cats through local animal shelters, including pets with medical and behavioral needs. This experience has taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs and comfort level. I also prefer a meet & greet for new boarding and daycare clients so we can make sure everyone is comfortable and that my home is a good fit for your pet.
“Tiffany was an absolute delight to book with!! From the very beginning, she was very prompt in her responses and answered any questions that I had. I am a newer dog mom, so she put me at ease due to her kindness and professionalism. She was very flexible with drop-off/pickup times, which I know can be tough for most. That was a huge plus! She also communicated throughout the day with updates and cute photos of my fur baby so I knew he was safe and well taken care of. If I could, I would give her 10/5 stars! I definitely plan to book with her again in the near future! Thanks again Tiffany!”
“Aiden and her wonderful family have been fantastic sitters! BELLA is usually very skittish about new places but she has been very excited to go to doggy day care. Highly recommended!”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer with over 10 years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and training levels. Dog training and behavior isn’t a hobby for me—it’s what I do professionally every day. What sets my home apart from a typical boarding environment is the experience, structure, and understanding of canine behavior your dog receives while staying with me. I’m comfortable working with everything from puppies and high-energy working breeds to senior dogs and dogs with behavioral challenges, including reactivity and aggression. Dogs stay on my private 1.2-acre property with a fully fenced 6-foot privacy fence, giving them plenty of safe space for exercise, play, and outdoor time. I believe dogs need more than simply being let outside—they need engagement, play, structure, and biological fulfillment. I own and work German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois and have extensive experience with powerful, high-drive working breeds. I understand that every dog is an individual, so their stay is tailored to their temperament, energy level, physical abilities, and needs. Dogs are safely kenneled when they cannot be directly supervised and receive individual attention, play, exercise, and structured time throughout their stay. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can actually see how your dog is doing while you’re away. Whether you have an easygoing family dog, a young energetic puppy, a senior who needs a little extra consideration, or a dog that isn’t appropriate for a traditional daycare or boarding facility, my goal is to provide a safe, structured, enjoyable environment where you can feel confident leaving your dog. Dogs are already a major part of my daily routine. As a professional dog trainer, my days are built around training, exercising, playing with, and caring for dogs, so boarding isn’t something I have to fit around a traditional 9-to-5 schedule. I work from my home and have the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, outdoor time, individual play, exercise, and attention throughout the day. My property sits on 1.2 private acres with a fully fenced 6-foot privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of safe space to get outside and enjoy themselves. I keep a structured routine while also adjusting each dog’s day based on their age, energy level, temperament, physical needs, and what they’re accustomed to at home. Dogs are safely kenneled whenever they cannot be directly supervised and get multiple opportunities throughout the day to be outside, move, play, and engage. Because dogs are part of my everyday life—not something I care for only before or after work—I’m able to be very involved throughout their entire stay. Safety is my first priority. As a professional dog trainer, I understand canine behavior, body language, stress, arousal, and how quickly interactions between dogs can change. I don’t believe in simply putting unfamiliar dogs together and hoping everyone gets along. Dogs staying with me are supervised and managed based on their individual temperament, behavior, and needs. I have the ability to keep dogs completely separate when necessary, which also allows me to safely accommodate dogs that may not be appropriate for traditional daycare or open-play boarding environments. My home sits on 1.2 private acres with a fully fenced 6-foot privacy fence, providing plenty of secure space for outdoor time, exercise, and play. Dogs are safely kenneled whenever they cannot be directly supervised, and I never rely on a fenced yard as a substitute for supervision. Each dog’s routine is individualized. I follow owner instructions regarding feeding, medications, physical limitations, household routines, and any behavioral concerns. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, high-drive working breeds, reactive dogs, and dogs with aggression or other behavioral challenges. I also have German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois working dogs of my own. Guest dogs are not automatically expected to interact with my personal dogs or other boarding dogs. Any interaction is intentional and based on the individual dogs involved. My goal is to provide owners with something I would want for my own dogs: a clean, secure, structured environment with knowledgeable supervision, plenty of individual attention, play and outdoor time, and regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident about where your dog is staying.
“Cindy does an amazing job with Milo. Milo has separation anxiety and he’s blind. She takes care of him as if he was her own and it means so much to us. We trust her completely to leave Milo with her at any time. She’s very accommodating with both of our work schedules and is always available for us when we need help with Milo. we would recommend her service to anyone. Looking for great care for their pets.”
“Linda and family took great care of Layla. She stresses easily in her old age but not at all stressed with them. They communicated with me several times during her stay and even sent pictures. Highly recommend!”

“Becky was a very big help and did a great job stopping by and taking my pup for a walk around the neighborhood. She took good care of Ace and made sure to provide pictures and good feedback on how the walk went. I will be happy to have her care for my pup again!”

She's my first experience with Rover and has truly made me a return customer. Kat you have truly touch my heart with the cure you and your husband gave Ivy. THANK YOU 😊”
“Fern walked my dog two mornings in a row and she was always punctual, and overall amazing!! No complaints whatsoever. My Dutch Shepherd can be highly energetic but Fern knew how to connect with her from day 1”
About: I have previous experience taking care of senior dogs, active dogs, smaller dogs, and multiple dogs at once. I love any dog I take care of! I currently have a flexible schedule allowing me to take care of my dog daily as well as your dog! My flexibility allows me to watch your dog anytime! My fenced in yard allows your dog to have some freedom while we play outside! If your dog needs some alone time, I can crate them with a treat or toy while they relax!
About: I have always had animals in my life. I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, birds, horses, ducks, chickens, turkeys and goats. I currently have 3 cats and a dog. For as long as I can remember animals have always been in my life! I’ve worked with animals from young kittens and puppies to seniors, I absolutely love spending time with other people’s pets along with my own. I am a college student taking classes in the summer. I am available to take care of your pet babies overnight and in the morning to afternoon to early evening I give all our cats and dog the best treatment possible, I wake up and feed them, take our dog on walks, cuddle up with the kitties while doing homework and spend the night with all of them sleeping in my bed with me (I love them so much I let them sleep on my pillow and steal 90% of the bed space😂)
“William was great! He was reliable, flexible, understanding, patient and very nice. He did great with my two dogs. One of them requires special attention during walks. Will did exceptional. Definitely will be telling my family and friends about him so they can use him too, I know I will be! Thanks again William!”
About: I’ve mostly taken care of small creatures on my lifetime. I used to own parakeets and currently I own a leopard gecko whom I absolutely adore! I always wanted to own cats and/or dogs growing up but I’ve never been allowed to do that because my mom is irrationally afraid of both. I used to own a kitten but we had to give it away because my mom thought she could handle it but she was just too scared of it. I’ve taken care of other people’s cats and dogs before and I get along well with all animals! Since I’m unemployed, I am free anytime other than Saturday and Sunday mornings. Saturday I have classes from 10 am to 12 pm and Sundays I have church from 9 am to 11 am. I unfortunately do not CURRENTLY have anything that is specifically catered to dogs or cats in my house or yard, as I do not own either at the moment. I can certainly do my absolute best to cater to your animal’s needs, however!
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, giving me 15 years of hands-on experience across all breeds and sizes. From large, powerful breeds like Rottweilers, Pitbulls, and Great Danes to spirited Schnauzers and my current 4-year-old French Bulldog, I understand how to adjust my care to every dog's unique personality and energy level. Whether your pup needs confident, experienced handling on walks or gentle, focused attention, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Pet care is my top priority! I manage my schedule carefully to ensure every dog gets full attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and daily exercise. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or house sitting, I have flexible availability to match your dog's exact daily routine. Having raised dogs my whole life—from large breeds like Great Danes and Pitbulls to smaller pups like my Frenchie—I prioritize safety above all else. In your home, I keep the environment secure, strictly follow all feeding and leash protocols, and provide frequent updates and photos so you have total peace of mind.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have had experience with animals since I was growing up. I had a dog, a rabbit, and birds, and I currently have a cat that I love and care for. My aunt and uncle also have a small farm with lots of roosters, so I often help them take care of the animals, raise them, and spend time playing with them. Caring for animals is more than just a responsibility to me; it is something I genuinely enjoy and have a passion for. I’m always willing to make time in my day to give animals the love, attention, and care they need. I always make an animal’s safety and well-being my top priority. I stay attentive to their needs and surroundings at all times, creating a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment.
About: I have been taking care of the animals of close friends and family since I was 19 years old. In addition to taking care of cats and dogs, I am also an experienced farm hand. I have taken care of horses, chickens, donkeys, and Alpacas. Whatever your pet needs are, I can do it. I am currently doing volunteer work on Tuesdays, but am available every other day of the week. Early mornings and afternoons work best for me, but I am available later in the evening when needed I can do feedings, walks, drop ins, and full night stays. I can also administer oral medication. I have a dog of my own and she gets daily medication I give her myself.
About: I watch for your pets as if they are my own! From playtime & walks to cuddles & nighttime routines your pet will always make them feel right at home. Tell me what their favorite treats are! I love to bring along snacks. I adore building a relationship with my clients & getting to know you and most importantly, your pet! I have experience watching cats & dogs of all ages, as well as pets such as fish, turtles, or bunnies! I work part time and the max I’ll be gone in a work day no more than 5-7 hours! If I don’t work I spend most of the day with your babies, possibly stopping by home or school for basic needs and class/clubs. I will always keep you updated in case of emergencies and/or timing issues. At the moment I cannot care for large size dogs as my schedule does not allow for me to give them the care they need. When I care for your pets in-home, I take it very seriously. Your house, your rules. I adore lists, as I love seeing your personal household & pet preferences. I always clean after myself before leaving.
About: I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing at home, I’ll tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. I’m experienced with administering oral medications, following detailed care instructions, and providing plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and one-on-one attention. My goal is to keep your dog happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I have had a Sheltie, and currently have a Great Pyrenees. In addition I have fosters dogs young and old, big and small. I live on a farm, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. Each morning starts with feeding and caring for the animals in the barn before tending to the pets in the house. I enjoy taking my dog for evening walks and spending time riding my horses during the day. Animals have always been a central part of my life, and I truly enjoy providing them with the care, attention, and love they deserve. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers quiet cuddles on the couch, I’ll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and routine they’re used to at home. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including guinea pigs, rats, hedgehogs, birds, emus, horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, and chickens. Caring for so many different species has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to read animal behavior and body language—skills that help me provide calm, attentive, and compassionate care for every pet. As a pet owner myself, I know how difficult it can be to find someone you truly trust with your animals. That’s why my goal is simple: to care for every pet as if they were my own, giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pets staying with me will have access to a securely fenced yard where they can safely play and explore. They’re welcome on the furniture and bed if that’s what they’re accustomed to at home—I want them to feel as comfortable as possible. If you’d like, your dog can socialize with my friendly, spayed Great Pyrenees in the fenced yard. If your dog prefers their own space or isn’t comfortable around other dogs, I’m happy to keep them completely separate and provide individual walks and one-on-one attention instead. Please note that the fenced yard includes a swimming pool. All outdoor time is supervised, and I take every precaution to ensure your pet’s safety.
About: I provide dependable, personalized care by treating every pet like family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets with special routines, and I always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work part-time as a virtual therapist, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, and personalized care. I make sure every pet receives the time, care, and updates they deserve while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they receive fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also keep their environment clean, follow any special care instructions, and provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve been dog/house sitting since I was about 12 years old. I went on to take Veterinary Medicine courses through my high school, while I interned at a local animal hospital. I then went on to work as a kennel tech at a boarding and daycare facility for a year, then moved to another vet to start putting my knowledge to the test! I am now enrolled and in my second year of online school to get my bachelors in Animal Health and Behavior, and I absolutely love my job as a vet tech assistant! I’m currently only working part time so I have more time for school, but I do have some extra time on my hands. There’s no better way to spend free time than playing with furry friends! I have plenty experience in basic dog/cat health, including handling aggressive, overly energetic, or untrained pets, as well as “breakout artists”, who might be prone to fence-jumping or getting out of kennels. During my experience working as a kennel tech, I learned many different ways to handle an array of behaviors.
About: Since I was born, I have been constantly around dogs and cats. I started dog-sitting around the age of 10 and continued building wonderful connections with the pets of family, friends, and neighbors throughout college. During my military training and college years, I learned how hard it can be to be away from your beloved pet. Additionally, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furr baby. I would be honored to provide your pet with the same love, attention, and companionship I give my own dog. While giving you peace of mind and the freedom to enjoy your time away without worrying. 🐾❤️ I’m currently waiting to begin further military training. So I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time. I usually wake up early because I go to the gym. I believe every pet and owner has their own routine. I’m happy to accommodate individual needs. I can provide regular walks, fresh water, and on-time feeding to ensure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can play and enjoy some outdoor time (if preferred). I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’m happy to send pictures and keep you updated whenever I’m with your furry family member!

“This was the second stay Leo had with Jim. With all the frequent updates and communication, we knew exactly what was going on with our little boy in JIm's sweet home. We felt so lucky to have found a home outside of the home for our little boy. We will definitely book another stay with Jim.”
“Highly recommend you look no further. We used her for boarding this time, and Heather was great with our dogs. She sent pictures as promised, and they always looked very happy. She followed our requests with certain treats and was comfortable with some of their extra needs. She was reasonably priced and flexible with picking up and dropping off the dogs, easing our travel with two young kids. We would happily book with her again for our next trip!”

“I am sorry Laurie that I am so late, with this review. Laurie is such a sweet woman. She took such good care of my Lyric. I have only used one pet sitter to keep Lyric since she was 3 months old and I was nervous about taking her to anyone else. Well Laurie treated Lyric like one of her own and Lyric was enjoying herself the entire time. Laurie kept me posted the entire visit with pics, texts and videos. Thank you Laurie for being such a kind soul.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Leslie provided for our dog, Siku, over the 9 days we were away. From the very beginning, Leslie was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease leaving Siku in her care. Throughout our trip, Leslie kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant so much to us. It was clear that Siku was not only well cared for, but also happy and comfortable. When we returned, Siku was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been given lots of attention and love. Leslie truly went above and beyond, and we are so grateful to have found someone we trust. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter—and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
