“Candace was a great sitter! Her parents were helpful as well. Cassie was in good hands and was well taken care of. We were so thankful they accommodated us picking up Cassie after our evening flight.”
“We had to book with Kayla pretty much as last minute as you could get. Our original Rover didn’t work out and we needed to find somewhere quick. Kayla was super communicative and easy going! Her other dogs are all so sweet and well trained. It was a great socialization experience for our dog. She sent us so many videos and pictures throughout the booking. We loved Kayla and would recommend her 1000x over”
“Natalie took care of my sweet pittbull for 26 days while I traveled outside the country! At first I was nervous because the pictures had not been updated and honestly the appearance is slightly jarring at first. However if you can look past that, Natalie is a passionate dog owner, her own dogs are healthy, happy and well trained. My pittbull has tons of allergies and requires supplements, oral drops, baths, and topical foam. Natalie was willing to take that on, and provide a routine for my dog so that she could play, socialize, and be well cared for. Natalie gives daily pictures so you can visualize your dog is safe and sound! Don’t judge a book by its cover!! I am so glad my dog found her rhythm and enjoyed her time with Natalie. Highly recommend her! My dog came back looking shinny and happy! Will book her again!!”
“Sydney was wonderful with both my mini schnauzers. She took care of their every need and gave them lots of love. We have rebooked with her for several more dates and will continue to book with her for boarding in her home.”
“Nancye is absolutely amazing! She loved and spoiled our Josey as if he was her own. I loved that we had the opportunity to have a meet and greet before we took our trip. She took him on walks. He loves car rides and she took him to get ice cream with her getting him a pup cup. It was our 1st time leaving him with someone new and she sent us pictures and updated all along the way. Nancye has such a love for fur babies and it shows. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Maribel was the best caregiver. Knowledgeable, always present, sweet, active, she is an animal person with plenty of space and experience. She was flexible with us and very responsive when we reached out a couple of times. She also sent us photos of how our little pup was doing, which was important for my mom who was away from her companion for 10 days. We'll certainly reach out to Maribel if she's available before our next trip. Best experience!”
“Carmen and her husband were absouloutly amazing with our two dogs! She has an amazing fenced back yard that are dogs loved running around in. Carmen was great at communicating and sending me pictures and they worked around their schedules to find a convientent time for us to pick up our dogs. I will definately consider Carmen next time we need to board our dogs.”
“David and Linda were very communicative and cooperative by providing lots of updates and pictures of Chico. They took great care of my pup, spent a lot of time with him and made sure he was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend their services and will definitely go with them again in the future”
“It was our first time leaving Bucky with someone, but after seeing the place and meeting Richard and Kelly, we felt at ease knowing Bucky would be in great hands. They took GREAT care of him, and sent us pictures as well which we really enjoyed!”
About: I've watched dogs and cats with all different personalities and needs (i.e. blind, diabetic, anxious, etc.). I believe in understanding a pet's needs from the perspective of the pet and responding with compassion. I work full time, but can usually work from home if needed. I will talk with you before we commit to pet sitting to ensure my schedule works for your needs (if that's getting off early, working from home every day during the time of the sitting, going home over lunch for a walk, etc). I have no fur babies (or kids) of my own, so your babies will get my undivided attention and I will shower them with all the love I wish I could give to my own fur baby if I had one. (Know I recognize that love looks different for different critters - for some it may mean keeping a respectful distance!)
“Our dogs love Jenny! We have one medium dog and one large dog. Jenny is amazing and keeps us up to date on how our dogs are doing. It is so nice to be away and not have to worry about our dogs! I highly recomend her!”
“Holly was amazing. She took our pups on short notice and they had a great time together. Several pictures were sent and when we came to pick up the pups they had clearly had a great time. They played their little hearts out.”
“Veronica has been so great with Sam multiple times and Sam loves hanging out with her, her family, and her friendly dogs ... plus he comes back happy, and tired from all the playtime which is great, too :)”
“Angela did a great job with our Penny. She kept us updated throughout our 8 nights apart. She made me feel like she was taking great care of our dog. Although i missed Penny while were were gone i was never worried about her. I would definitely ask Angela to care for our dog next time.”
“McKenanne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Peaches! She sent the cutest pics and video during her stay and it was clear that Peaches was having a blast! I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.”
“Courtney & Kam were amazing! We had a super informative meet and greet in the beginning. They had my boy over Christmas and I got pictures every day. I could tell how happy he was there. When I picked him up, he was super happy to see me, but I could also tell he was kind of sad to leave them. They went on many hiking adventures and he came back just as clean. Courtney & Kam were super flexible with the time, especially when I had to extend my trip a couple days early. Overall, I would recommend them. I could tell they loved my pup with all their heart!! They were super professional and very kind. I also saw how well kept and nice their home was.”
“We’ve used Nancy a few times for boarding our golden retriever pup and she is fantastic! We love her bubbly and welcoming personality. We’ve always felt like our pup has been in great hands with exceptional care. Highly recommend!!!”
“I would definitely recommend Claire for petsitting. She friendly and accommodating, and our dog seemed very well cared for. Our only problem was finding the house because the address sent to us through Rover was not correct, but hopefully that has been fixed.”
“Kurt was excellent! He was very friendly, had great communication, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was very flexible with drop off/pick up times. Norman got lots of attention and cuddles. I will definitely be booking with Kurt again. 10/10 would definitely recommend!”

“Thank you to Alicia and family for taking care good care of our scared baby Mushroom while we were gone we won’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone who needs loving family to look after their fur babies best wishes to you…”
“Abby was so great with our puppy, Ferris! It can be stressful trusting someone else with your pets for the first time but we had no worries after meeting Abby! She's professional, friendly and Ferris took to her immediately. She even sent us pictures and an update. We will definitely be using her again!”

“We are so amazed by the care that Rita provided our boys when we were away. We knew from our initial meeting that she offers her services because she loves pets so much. We will definitely only hire her for our future needs and we recommend her without reservation!”

I have a fenced yard, a pet-friendly home, a friendly indoor-outdoor farm dog, and outdoor mousers. Happy and ready to care for your indoor animals.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life, all with different temperaments. I know that cats are each their own special being and sometimes their way of getting attention is to just hang out in the same room with you. I have been in school to train as a vet tech, due to finances I could not finish. However, I do know more about interacting with cats than the average person due to finances.
“Cynthia has a special way with my rescue dog! She kept me updated about my dog with every visit. She was willing to help with our dog’s care at the very last minute. I highly recommend Cynthia!”
About: I have immense experience caring for my own cat, Stella. Managing Stella’s daily needs has taught me about creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for cats, from feeding and grooming to keeping her entertained and happy. My experience with Luna has also made me familiar with the nuances of feline behavior and the patience and understanding it takes to make cats feel secure and loved. I’d be thrilled to bring this same level of care to other cats!

About: I have been pet sitting for many years. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, and even a chameleon. I really have a special affection for dogs. I connect with them and they with me. I have friends whose dogs freak out when they see me after not having seen me for a while. I take them on hikes, play with them, and do whatever is necessary to keep them in good health while in my care. I can see that all your dogs needs are met, including medications, special foods, treats, and a good night's sleep. I have a fenced-in backyard where your dog and mine can frolic while I keep an eye on them. I always supervise and dogs aren't left on their own.
About: Growing up, I have done pet and house sitting in various cities and situations. I come from a family of animal lovers: my mom won't even kill a house insect, and her mom has been know to adopt cats, birds, and even the occasional squirrel! We have no dogs of our own at this point, but I love to watch other peoples' dogs to scratch that canine itch (preferrably behind the ears! 😄) I am a home body with two little ones that are yet to be in school. I will probably be home most of the time your pet is here. We have an unfenced yard with caged chickens, quails, and goats. As a family, we spend lots of time outside and on walks, so your pet will get plenty of time to excercise.
About: Hi! I have experience caring for my family's elderly cat that passed away a few years ago. He had incontinence issues and seizures in the last few years of his life. I made sure to bathe him and love him through the end. Now I am the owner of two 1 year old cats that are beyond spoiled! I love cats and have taken care of many throughout the years. I even helped a mother cat giving birth, helped litter train her 4 kittens, and weaned them as they got older.
“Sophia was so wonderful with our two dogs! We had to go out of town suddenly and she was so helpful! She kept us updated on how they were doing and was just an absolute godsend! Can not say enough great things about her!”
“Cara was awesome!! She was very communicative and even stopped by at our house a few days before we left out of town so we could show her what we needed for our 2 cats. You can tell she is very caring and she came twice and took care of everything we asked for and left detailed notes and photos on the Rover Card so we could keep updated on how our cats were doing.”
About: @ateamdogcare I have been using rover for 6 years now. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats who have been with the dogs since they were 3 weeks old. We live on 2 acres with a great fenced in yard. We love hosting pets and will treat them like our own. Im always home so let’s can stay on their normal schedules and have someone around while you’re gone. Feel free to message me with any questions! I also have experience with medications, including injectable ones. When your pup comes to stay with us we ask that you bring; their food, treats, favorite toys/bones, bed or blanket, crate (if you use one), bowls, and a leash. Or anything that might make your dogs stay easier! :)

“Amelia did an amazing job taking care of my puppy! She sent me updates throughout the day and made sure my puppy, Penelope, was entertained all day long! I will definitely be booking her again if I need someone to watch Penelope.”
“Nancy’s was great! We were in town for graduation and needed a pet sitter for a few hours to attend the ceremony. Nancy’s was very attentive and excited to take care of Chai. She was in great hands and I highly recommend her to anybody who wants extra special treatment for their pup.”
“This was our first time using Rover & Linda & David have set the bar very high! Our new puppy was definitely in good hands while we went to a VT football game. We received pictures & updates on how our fur baby was doing & he came back to us happy & tired after lots of play & exercise. Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Corrie & Greg (& kids!!) as this was our second visit for daycare. It’s such a peace of mind knowing our puppy is well cared for and loved by this amazing family. We received communication & updates during his stay. We could fully relax to enjoy a VT football game knowing our puppy was in excellent care with the sweetest family. Thank you so much, and we will see you again soon!”
“Deann was wonderful! We were a last minute booking and she could not have been more flexible or more gracious! Our puppy had a great afternoon. We will definitely be return customers!”
About: I am a veterinarian who has dedicated her life to caring for animals. I have worked with animals from a young age, including many hours working in vet offices in high school leading up to college and vet school (became a licensed vet in 2020). I am quite comfortable with caring for animals who need medications administered, or more intense levels of care while their owners are away. Working with animals brings me joy and peace, and making sure they are happy and well cared for is my life mission. I believe in fear free handling, and I am happy to work with animals who do not trust unknown people. I am a licensed veterinarian but I am currently in grad school so I am very flexible. I can be home all day if needed, and can provide close supervision. I have a 3 year old female German Shepherd (very friendly!) and cats (mostly outdoor). I have the ability to keep my dog separate if needed but she loves playing with other dogs! I have a full sized truck and the ability to transport animals with me safely. I have 2.5 acres of fenced land for dogs to run and play as well as a small fenced in section adjacent to the house. A pet door offers come and go access to the house. I am free to drop in during the week or board animals for extended periods, and if your animal needs medications administered as part of their care I am very capable. I am comfortable handling large dogs (I have a lot of practice in my line of work as a veterinarian). I am also comfortable with young animals, cats, older animals, and any animal requiring high levels of care.
“My dog Max appeared to have a wonderful time at Richard and Kelly’s. It’s awesome to have found a place close to work and home to take him for daycare :) 100% going again !!”

“Jessie always does a great job taking care of our sweet, but shy fur baby! We appreciate the pictures and updates she regularly sends us. It makes our hearts happy knowing that our dog is getting wonderful care and lots of love when we’re away!”
“Overall, they are AMAZING dog sitters and do a great job! I was given tons of pictures of my Auggie having a great weekend and I was very nervous to leave him for the first time. They did a great job instilling good habits in my puppy while having him enjoy his weekend with completely new people. I’m extremely satisfied and will be using them again!!”
About: People like me because I LOVE pets so much. I have a 2-year-old chihuahua named Cheeto, and have had many size dogs over the years. I also have a cat named Marvel who is under a year. I grew up on a farm with a variety of animals from small to large, cats, dogs, horses, pigs, rabbits, and a peacock. My friends and family say that I have animal radar and know when one is near. I do well with a variety of temperaments, and warm up to the dog at their own comfort level. I send picture or video updates so the pet parents can keep in touch and not miss them. From past work with a pet brand and learned some good information about dog food and safety; and am a part of a petsitting group online where we share useful learning. I would have 10 dogs if I could, so this is the way to meet more! I look forward to meeting your best friends, and loving them like they are accustomed. I'm grateful to Rover for allowing me to make lifelong friends in addition to my petsitting business. It fits anytime! I do walks, pick-ups for vet or groomer, overnights, days or just multiple visits. I observe and communicate behaviors. Safety is key! Any service in your home, I usually shut doors that won’t be necessary to eliminate accidents during stays, play and walk and give them company or a game. I leave your home like I found it or better and communicate frequently for any direction from you or notification about your pet and home. Get the mail, water plants. At my home, I have a whole floor for them to hang out and look out a huge window to deer, birds, plants. We walk in the suburb, or take car rides if ok. Watch movies, naps. I make sure in any situation that safety and risk assessment is on point. If I don’t know I will ask. If it’s a medium breed or smaller dog in my home, I’ll walk them with my chihuahua, or if not, just walk separately.
About: I like to take a supervised yet hands-off approach to watching over dogs. That is, letting dogs be their curious and playful selves while making sure they're safe and well taken care of. I've owned dogs my whole life (breeds including portuguese water dog, rottweilers, maltese/poodle mix, terrier mix, schnauzer/poodle mix, and a german shepherd currently) and find that they are happier and better behaved when given freedom to explore and lead rather than be expected to remain obedient and tame at all times. Some pups need more structure and thrive on a little more rigidity though, and I am very capable of meeting whatever their needs are and sticking to what you know is best for their personality. I am easily swooned by all kinds of dogs but am not one to let them use their good looks and charm to get the best of me. I am mostly just excited to hang out with as many of these guys as I can! I do want to be transparent that I work regular hours Mon - Fri, so I cannot stay with your pups 24/7 during the week. That being said, lunch time bathroom breaks are a guarantee! Walks in the morning and in the evening, and a quick potty break in the afternoon! I do have a day job, but your sweet pup will always be my first priority. I have a large backyard and live just a few short minutes from the Huckleberry Trail 🙂 I also have a spacious yard where your furry friend can roam free!

About: Some of my pet experience includes bathing dogs, taking care of dogs for friends, having my own dog who i care for, and loving all animals. I’ve trained my dog to for certain commands which i believe is very helpful. All my friends come to me when they need someone to take care of their fur babies! I am a college student with a work load, however no job. A lot of my days are spent in my home doing homework and pet care fits into my schedule because I can always be there to play and take you pets out. I don’t have very long classes either or in a big stretch so your pay would be cared for almost 24/7 I care for pets as if they were my children haha! In my home, I have bowls, treats, and toys for your pets. In your home, I would respect the space and take care of your pet as if it were my own.

About: My home is where I tell people "they have me trained well". I love all animals and believe they deserve the best of treatment as they give to us so unconditionally. Any animal in our household is taken care of as they are our children. Our older dog was raised to be kind to smaller animals and seems to think anything smaller than him is his to take care of. We taught this by stroking gently and telling him to "be nice" this is just a "baby". Animals are never hit or disciplined by any harsh means, we reinforce good behavior. Our dogs get brushed every night around 7:00 and remind us if we miss the time and we treat them to a small snack every evening around 8:30 which they know also.
About: I am a lover of all animals, especially dogs. I grew up with dogs of all kinds, big and small. Therefore, I know that dogs have different needs and personalities. About four years ago I got a puppy of my own and she has been an amazing companion. I also have experience working with special needs dogs as I have dog sat for a deaf Westie in the past. I would love to care for your pets! I am currently only available on the weekends for services including walks, boarding, and drop in visits. I am available for boarding or doggy daycare. I have a fenced in yard and have a sweet four year old dog to keep your pups entertained.

About: I grew up on a farm around many different types of animals. I believe that your dogs life is short and giving them a good day matters. As a dog mom myself I believe everyone fur baby deserves to spend a few minutes outside everyday especially with their new favorite play date, me! I am a full time first responder thankfully with this schedule I have many days off to rest relax and take your fur baby on an adventure. You have a high energy dog? No worries! I’m a very active individual and wouldn’t mind taking your dog on a run! My dogs enjoy a large front yard they run around in. I believe outside play is important for a dogs mental health. Of course your dog will receive lots of loving and treats from me after a nice long walk outside.
About: Hi! I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats as well as kittens. I have helped change diapers, clean up messes, give relaxing baths, and provide as much exercise as possible for any pets I have watched over the years. As a professional housekeeper, no incontinence issue is too much for me! As long as your fur baby is happy and safe. I am currently on leave without pay from my full time job (until an undetermined time) so I have open availability to pet sit this summer for anyone who plans on taking a little vacation! I treat all pets with kindness and patience, always keeping in mind that any "aggression" is just a tiny animal who may be scared or hurting. Every animal is different and I'm always willing to learn how to keep each one safe depending on what the owner wants. I am also willing and open to being recorded on home security cameras to build that trust, as I have them in my home as well to watch over my cats. I provide a quiet, peaceful environment for your pet or I can play for hours until they are tired!
About: As a dedicated pet owner caring for my two dogs Grayson (Beagle) and Maggie (Cocker Spaniel). I manage their daily routines, including walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, and health needs.

My goal is to bring that same level of attentiveness and warmth to every pet I care for.

My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide pet care at times that work best for you and your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended sitting, I can adapt to your schedule to ensure your pets receive consistent, loving attention whenever needed.

About: Hi, my name is Megan and I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as i can remember. I’ve had pets since I was born, I love cats, dogs, chickens, all animals. I just love taking care of them and getting to know all of their individual personalities! I do foster for the animal shelter when needed, usually animals that need a little extra support until they can be adopted. I really enjoy that, it just makes me feel like I’m making a difference in the world, no matter how small it may be. I do volunteer work for them as well. Whether you’re going on vacation or you need someone for work, I’m your person! I’ll be there and I’ll make sure your pets are well taken care of!

I also send pictures (probably too many lol) but I know you miss your babies and I want to put your mind at ease as much as possible! I can take care of your pet at my house, we have a big fenced in yard way out off the road too so no issues with being too close to the road and a lot of privacy too. I can also come to you for drop ins, I’m very flexible! We’ll make it work! Just let me know what works for you!
About: I have been dog sitting around my neighborhood since I was about 13. I have lots of experience not only dog sitting but house sitting as well. I also have experience with puppies and helping train/teach them. My biggest experience is working for a doggie daycare and working at a dog park (BarK for anyone familiar!) Along with this I also have had two cats and two dogs of my own who I love dearly. I am also CPR certified in dog CPR and have basic first-aid experience with animals! I am currently searching for a job so I have plenty of time to focus on you and your pets! I would love to spend as much time as your pets need to make sure they are comfortable and happy :) As of now I won’t be able to offer boarding/daycare at my place but at others houses I want to make sure both human and dog have the best experience possible. I will always check what is expected of the pets during our time together (allowed on furniture? Nice to others on walks? Etc) I make sure that the pets are getting the most out of our time together with lots of interaction and love :)

“Candace was a great sitter! Her parents were helpful as well. Cassie was in good hands and was well taken care of. We were so thankful they accommodated us picking up Cassie after our evening flight.”
“We had to book with Kayla pretty much as last minute as you could get. Our original Rover didn’t work out and we needed to find somewhere quick. Kayla was super communicative and easy going! Her other dogs are all so sweet and well trained. It was a great socialization experience for our dog. She sent us so many videos and pictures throughout the booking. We loved Kayla and would recommend her 1000x over”
“Natalie took care of my sweet pittbull for 26 days while I traveled outside the country! At first I was nervous because the pictures had not been updated and honestly the appearance is slightly jarring at first. However if you can look past that, Natalie is a passionate dog owner, her own dogs are healthy, happy and well trained. My pittbull has tons of allergies and requires supplements, oral drops, baths, and topical foam. Natalie was willing to take that on, and provide a routine for my dog so that she could play, socialize, and be well cared for. Natalie gives daily pictures so you can visualize your dog is safe and sound! Don’t judge a book by its cover!! I am so glad my dog found her rhythm and enjoyed her time with Natalie. Highly recommend her! My dog came back looking shinny and happy! Will book her again!!”
“Sydney was wonderful with both my mini schnauzers. She took care of their every need and gave them lots of love. We have rebooked with her for several more dates and will continue to book with her for boarding in her home.”
“Maribel was the best caregiver. Knowledgeable, always present, sweet, active, she is an animal person with plenty of space and experience. She was flexible with us and very responsive when we reached out a couple of times. She also sent us photos of how our little pup was doing, which was important for my mom who was away from her companion for 10 days. We'll certainly reach out to Maribel if she's available before our next trip. Best experience!”
“Carmen and her husband were absouloutly amazing with our two dogs! She has an amazing fenced back yard that are dogs loved running around in. Carmen was great at communicating and sending me pictures and they worked around their schedules to find a convientent time for us to pick up our dogs. I will definately consider Carmen next time we need to board our dogs.”
“It was our first time leaving Bucky with someone, but after seeing the place and meeting Richard and Kelly, we felt at ease knowing Bucky would be in great hands. They took GREAT care of him, and sent us pictures as well which we really enjoyed!”
“Our dogs love Jenny! We have one medium dog and one large dog. Jenny is amazing and keeps us up to date on how our dogs are doing. It is so nice to be away and not have to worry about our dogs! I highly recomend her!”
“Holly was amazing. She took our pups on short notice and they had a great time together. Several pictures were sent and when we came to pick up the pups they had clearly had a great time. They played their little hearts out.”
“Veronica has been so great with Sam multiple times and Sam loves hanging out with her, her family, and her friendly dogs ... plus he comes back happy, and tired from all the playtime which is great, too :)”
“Angela did a great job with our Penny. She kept us updated throughout our 8 nights apart. She made me feel like she was taking great care of our dog. Although i missed Penny while were were gone i was never worried about her. I would definitely ask Angela to care for our dog next time.”
“McKenanne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Peaches! She sent the cutest pics and video during her stay and it was clear that Peaches was having a blast! I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.”
“Courtney & Kam were amazing! We had a super informative meet and greet in the beginning. They had my boy over Christmas and I got pictures every day. I could tell how happy he was there. When I picked him up, he was super happy to see me, but I could also tell he was kind of sad to leave them. They went on many hiking adventures and he came back just as clean. Courtney & Kam were super flexible with the time, especially when I had to extend my trip a couple days early. Overall, I would recommend them. I could tell they loved my pup with all their heart!! They were super professional and very kind. I also saw how well kept and nice their home was.”
“We’ve used Nancy a few times for boarding our golden retriever pup and she is fantastic! We love her bubbly and welcoming personality. We’ve always felt like our pup has been in great hands with exceptional care. Highly recommend!!!”
“I would definitely recommend Claire for petsitting. She friendly and accommodating, and our dog seemed very well cared for. Our only problem was finding the house because the address sent to us through Rover was not correct, but hopefully that has been fixed.”
“Kurt was excellent! He was very friendly, had great communication, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was very flexible with drop off/pick up times. Norman got lots of attention and cuddles. I will definitely be booking with Kurt again. 10/10 would definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve always been the person who stops to say hi to every dog I pass and always at the cat section at the pet stores. I’ve cared for my own pets for years and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet wants to play all day or just curl up next to someone, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos because I know I’d want the same for my own pets. Pet care fits easily into my routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I have a flexible schedule and can make time for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and whatever else your pet needs throughout the day. I understand how important consistency is, so I’ll do my best to stick to your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress free I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own and always put their safety and comfort first. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide, keep a close eye on your pet, and make sure they feel secure and cared for at all times. I’m also a big believer in communication, so you’ll receive updates and photos throughout their stay so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Amari was absolutely wonderful with Frost! She took him on very short notice, which I greatly appreciated, and he had an amazing time in her care. It was clear from the updates and from how happy and relaxed Frost was when we picked him up that he was well cared for and loved. Amari is reliable, communicative, and genuinely enjoys spending time with the dogs she watches. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Amari, for taking such great care of Frost!”
About: I am a stay at home Mom and would love to help other pet owners be at ease knowing their pets are being taken care of while you’re at work or out of town. Being at home allows me to be very flexible with the care you need. My family has both a dog and cat at home, so I’m familiar with the care needed for both. I’ve also cared for an elder dog before needing insulin administered. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible to work with your needs! I’m happy to work with you! I have a large un-fenced yard surrounded by woods; supervised time outside only and on a leash unless you and I both are confident in obedience to come when called. I have a small dog at home who prefers a cuddle buddy over a play mate, but she is friendly with most dogs and loves cats! In the event I leave home I prefer crating until I get to know your pup.
