“Oh my word. Rebekah was a life-saver. We had a last-minute booking, and at the Meet & Greet, any fears I had were out the window. She is so friendly and welcoming that my pup ran right to her! She has a spacious yard, a spacious dedicated area for several pups to sleep and stretch and nap (complete with cozy chair), and her joy is incredible! You can tell she really loves her job and does so much to care for the pets she watches. Rebekah was so great with sending updates and pictures - we never worried about our pup at all! It was clear she was in exceptionally good hands with Rebekah! We picked up our puppy, and while she was so excited to see us, she still running up to Rebekah like she was already part of the family! Rebekah gave us a full rundown of the stay, and how much fun our pup had with her and when we got home, our puppy passed OUT from all the excitement, fun, and exercise she was able to have with Rebekah. That made our hearts so happy to know that our pup had so much fun while we were gone! We don't leave her too often because of some of her past experiences with her previous owner. Rebekah really cared for our pup and made sure she was able to just be a dog and have a really good couple of days with a new friend.”
“Wonderful care for our Miss Etta James. Considerate n amazing family interactions.... loved how your family was so involved. Thanks n looking for Etta to stay w you again. Love Rhonda Garry n Miss Etta 💚☘️”
“Amber was a great host to our fur baby! When we dropped him off, it was like we didn’t exist! lol He had already established a connection. We also loved that Amber wanted to meet with us first which meant a lot. Overall, her communication was great, we got pictures along his stay and he gained a friend!”
“Julie and her family took great care of our dog Penny and treated her as their own. She had a spacious farm to roam and explore and other dogs to socialize with. This was the longest that we have left our dog but Julie provided regular updates of her visit. Our girl returned happy and tired!”
“My pups stayed here twice. They had a good time. They were nice, had a lot of space and came back happy. My daughter even loved seeing the animals. Thanks for keeping my puppies”
“I have to be very picky when choosing sitters as one pup has separation anxiety and will not stay with just anyone. I have had many issues with past sitters being dishonest and not following my guidance but I HIGHLY recommend Tanine!!! I have two very high energy pups (golden doodle and lab). She kept me updated, good and bad, and made sure to give my pup his meds with enough time for them to be effective prior to crating. She ensured to make them as comfortable as possible through the day and I truly appreciate her level of care. I specifically chose her due to the training background and I am so glad I followed through though there were not many reviews. I did not have to ask for pictures or updates throughout. She has small children that seem to love dogs so I know my pups received comfort as they love children. She is a gem! To have the patience and be willing to work with us through his anxiety is not something you find in all Rover sitters. Glad to have finally found a permanent option!”
“**⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stephanie is amazing!** Stephanie took care of my dog Max for 4 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure Max felt comfortable and loved the entire time. Her home was clean and safe, and Max came back happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Our girls were loved and very well cared for. 🩷 As parents, we could not ask for more. Svetlana is compassionate for your fur babies and you the parents. 🥰 We received videos that helped us to enjoy our time away, because we didn't have to wonder how they were doing. We are grateful for Svetlana. 🐾”
“Since our first use of Rover, this has been the best visit/offering of service thus far! Sonja &Phil maintained communication and provided photos throughout her entire stay, provided proper feeding (I always give a little extra and sitters would never have any to return), and she came back well and in good health (not the case on 2 occasions with another sitter). I appreciated that Roxy was still able to get outdoors in a enclosed area and I'm sure she did as well because she loves being outdoors. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be looking to use their services again!”
“Meredith is an angel with our sweet pup! She kept him for the duration of our cruise, and updated us with several pictures and a video. She was able to cater to our specific feeding needs, as well as administering medication. We are so lucky to have a puppysitter that treats him with such love and care.”
“Connie was AWESOME!!! Her house and yard are gorgeous and she took such great care of Toby. She sent us tons of pictures and our doby puppy came home super happy and worn out (really good for mom and dad). We will definitely book Connie again when we're in the area!! Thank you for being a Rover sitter Connie!!!!”
“Kai had another awesome visit with Dana! She has become our go to and we book her even when her house isn’t on our way out of town. We know he will be loved and well cared for and we will get lots of updates! Thanks again!”
“Heather is amazing! She is so knowledgeable, and understands dog behavior. She watches my two cockapoos. One gets anxious when meeting other dogs, but he had no problem with her guiding him step by step. She walked us and the dogs thru a very comfortable meet and greet with her and China (her adorable pug). My dogs have stayed with her twice. The second time, both my dogs were thrilled to see her, and one ran into her backyard like it was her house. They have never done that with other sitters, so I know my babies are having a great time with Heather. She sends daily pics, and makes us all feel at ease.”
“Leo was extremely well taken care of by a loving family. Plenty of space to run and have fun. Thank you Miss Yeni and Mr Ray for taking care of our beloved Leo”
“Traci is fantastic!! She is very responsive and sent pictures of my pups to me during their stay. She has a beautiful home with a great backyard. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Lorena took such great care of my pup Appa! Her large fenced in backyard allows ample play time and exercise for the pups at her home. I was so happy to see the many pictures she sent me while my husband and I were away. I know Appa had a wonderful time and we are all looking forward to our next visit! Thank you, Lorena!”
“By far the best place my dog has ever stayed. The communication was outstanding and my dog was well taken care of. I never had to worry about him once. I will never use any other service again. 10/10!!!”

“Kristin was a fabulous sitter! She was attentive, sweet and made my cats comfortable. I just know they loved her too! I only want Kristin to look after my cats from now on when I travel!”
“Debora was a wonderful sitter for our 2 cats! Very communicative and kind, and my shy kitties would greet her at the door. We will definitely be utilizing her services again!”
“This is the second time that we booked Candace and had another phenomenal experience! Pictures and updates daily and our cat always seems to have enjoyed Candace’s presence.”
About: Growing up in a house with a variety of pets taught me that animals aren't just pets—they're family. With a psychology background, I use positive reinforcement to bring out the best in every dog. I'm currently caring for my two middle-aged and senior dogs who need 10 daily medications, so I understand both puppy energy and gentle senior care. As a fellow pet parent and nature lover, I know how important it is to find someone who truly gets it. Your dog will get the same love and attention mine do—because that's what they deserve. I recently left my corporate job to seek a healthier lifestyle. I am in the process of building a business which gives me lots of flexibility to care for your dogs needs at any hour. Early mornings, mid-day, late evenings and even overnight! Just reach out and we will make it work! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities in their own familiar environment. I keep your home secure with doors and windows properly locked, and I'm mindful of any specific safety concerns you've mentioned about your pet or property. I stick to your pet's exact routine—feeding times, walks, medications, everything—because I know staying consistent helps them feel secure when you're away. It's just me giving your furry friend the one-on-one attention they deserve in the comfort of their own space. I treat your home with the same respect I'd want for mine. I'll handle small tasks like watering plants or bringing in mail, and I always leave everything exactly as I found it. You'll get regular photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and relaxed at home. With experience caring for my two senior dogs who need daily medications and close monitoring, I know how to spot when something's off with a pet's behavior or health. If any concerns come up, I'll contact you right away. Your pet gets the same attentive, loving care I give my own-because home is where they're most comfortable.
“Autumn is amazing! We have used her previously to watch our two cats and will continue to use her. She goes above and beyond. She makes sure to spend time with the cats and is patient with my cat requiring medication. This time around she was available to do drop in visits with a very short notice. I am very thankful we found Autumn and will continue to use her!”
“April is a pro at this job! She thinks ahead while I-the cat owner - am worried about last minutes things to pack 😊. We had a great meet and greet which made me confident about the care our cat needs. All went smoothly and perfectly at home while we were away. April sent pictures and comments at every visit 🙏”
“Alexis is our go-to gal. She is patient with our kitties and communicative with me. It puts my cat mama heart at ease when we have to leave them. She will always be our first choice when it comes to watching our girls. ♥️”
“Hailey did an absolutely AMAZING job with our babies. She treated them as if they were her own and they fell in love with her. She updated us each time she stopped in and even snapped a few priceless photos of our babies to show just how happy and well cared for they were. This was the first time we left them with a “stranger” and she quickly turned into their comfortable friend that would stop in to say hi. We will definitely book again with her if we are ever taking a trip.”
“Hailey was absolutely AMAZING with my two two fur babies! She sent lots of pics to me and did everything as instructed and more! My cats just loved all the attention she gave them. I would highly recommend her anyone needing petcare! I knew she would be great from the moment I met her!”

About: Hello!!! I am a Marine Corps Vet. I owned my own dog for 4 years prior to joining, I grew up around dogs my whole life. I am looking to expand my customer base in and around Fredericksburg and Quantico VA. I am also willing to travel to farther locations depending on the circumstances. Great for short/no notice dog sitting request. I am tidy when it comes to house sitting, so you’ll barely notice my presence in the house after I’m gone.

About: !! Please note: Because of my allergies, I cannot accept overnight house sittings for homes with cats, but I am fully available for standard 30-minute drop-ins!! I absolutely love cats and find them adorable, but I have a strong allergic sensitivity to cat dander that causes me to get itchy and break out in a rash if I am around them for too long. Because of this, I specialize strictly in quick, highly efficient 30-minute drop-in visits. I am happy to pop in to clean the litter box, put out fresh food and water, administer any quick treats, and give them some pets before washing my hands thoroughly and heading out. If your cat is independent and just needs someone reliable to ensure their essentials are taken care of down to the letter, I am your perfect match!

“We had a wonderful experience with Theresa and Ed. They were so kind and attentive to our pets, and we loved getting all the photo updates. It really gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Svetlana took great care of our 2 dogs on a last minute notice for the day. She is so kind, and good with the dogs. Her house is clean and tidy (1 of my dogs likes to chew everything), and she has a nice large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. I highly recommend her, and will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!!”

“⸻ Pedro had an amazing day with Yeny and Ray! He got plenty of playtime with his new furry friends, Charlie and Leo. When we got home, Pedro was happily tired and ready for bed. Yeny and Ray sent us photos and videos throughout the day, and communication was great. We’ll definitely book with them again!”
About: I have lots of experience with crate training and a very energetic pup in my house who needs lots of socialization. He and I both need friends and exercise. I work from home and am attending school a couple of days a week, so I have time the rest of the week to get some fresh air. I have also fostered several dogs over the years and enjoy having furry friends that I can love and then give back. When I introduce a new dog to our family, I always keep them on leash at first until we establish trust, always use the crate for feeding and at night with white noise to help anxiety. I want the dog and my family to have the best time possible.

About: Hello! My husband trained K9s in the military and was a police K9 handler in a local jurisdiction here in Virginia. Once his K9 retired we adopted him for good and made him part of our family forever! We also have a small fluffy puppy that my kids adore! They play with the German Shepherd and snuggle with the Puppy. I was a police officer for nine years until I retired to enjoy my kids when they were little. I have always had a dog and have been the main care taker for them for years. I also help care for my sisters elderly boxer, he is about the most high maintenance dog we know, but we love him anyway! :) We recently went on vacation and were astonished at not only the prices for boarding our dog but really the overall lack of care for them while they were there, this inspired me to look for other pet care options and I found Rover! I am excited to help families looking for affordable pet care!
About: I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds—from cats and dogs to birds, bunnies, and even livestock. I grew up working alongside an equine veterinarian and have spent years collaborating closely with small animal vets, giving me a strong foundation in animal health and behavior. Whether your pet needs meds, special care, or just a little extra love, I specialize in supporting animals with medical needs and take pride in being calm, compassionate, and highly attentive. I’m not just a sitter—I’m a lifelong animal caregiver who treats every pet like family. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and care they need throughout the day. Whether it's midday walks, medication schedules, or just extra snuggles, I’m consistently present and available to keep your pets happy and stress-free. My routine is built around their needs—because their comfort and well-being come first. 🐾 In my home, pets enjoy a safe, secure environment with a fully fenced yard and plenty of supervised playtime. My own friendly dogs are always happy to welcome new furry friends, but if your pet prefers one-on-one attention, I can provide a quiet, relaxed space just for them. I tailor the experience to match each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they love to socialize or just want a calm companion.
“Christie was AWESOME! She sent videos of my Dallas frolicking happily in her spacious backyard which put my mind at ease that he was having a wonderful time in her care! She is very loving, and attentive dog lover and I’ll definitely be calling on her again in the near future!”
“Amber was great with my dog and with communicating with me. My dog seemed to have felt very comfortable with Amber and her family which made me feel very comfortable leaving her in their care in the future.”
About: I have owned at least one dog for almost 20 years. For the last 8 years, my husband and I have owned and trained Labrador retrievers and gun dogs. I enjoy spreading our knowledge to those around us to include basic obedience. I have an outdoor area set up to take care of multiple pets. I currently work from home full time and am home all day long so your pet will be closely monitored and taken care of with ease. I have a fenced yard and outdoor kennel areas. I also have a large area inside my home where your pet can be kept inside. I do prefer crating all pets at night for their safety. Whether you prefer your pet to be inside or have no preference whether your pet stays inside or outside, we have both options. I have multiple pets in our home. **Please note if you are a new client and have not stayed with us, I do require proof of up to date pets vaccinations. This can be a quick photo of their records or a link to their records.
About: Animals are a big part of my life. I am rarely without an animal beside me. I have adopted rescued English Bulldogs. I have cared for my own animals (birds, cats, dogs, and fish) all of my life and I ran a pet sitting service in college. I have lots of experience with administrering medicine and caring for young animals. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I can do either a set schedule or a flexible schedule I am open. In my home I can be with the pet pratically 24/7 since I am home with my own pets working all day. I have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet gated community with a walking trail and areas for pets to play. I also have a large home with guest bedrooms and areas where I can keep your pets safe and secure if they do not like other animals in the home. I do not use crates I use gates throughout my house.

“After we had an awful first experience with rover with another Dog Walker, Deborah restored our faith in this service. What an incredible human, let alone dog walker. Consistent, great communication, and our dog adores her. I would go back to her 10 times out of 10!”
“Autumn is the best dog walker and takes such great care of my pup. She documents details from her walks, such as when my dog goes to the bathroom, which helps me know what to expect when I get home. She’s super reliable and lets me know well in advance when she has travel plans. She’s also super flexible if I need to change the schedule on short notice. She also brings in packages without me even asking. She’s the best!”

About: I play with animals not just do what is asked to be done by the owner. I make sure they are loved and well cared for. I am super flexible as well! I am a college student who works from home and isn’t currently employed anywhere else so my schedule is very flexible for people! I like to get out of the house and do something productive! I will make sure the pets all feel safe and not threatened. That they can feel comfortable with their same routines while there owner is away and can have some fun too!
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 10 years, whether mine or those belonging to family. I have trained puppies as well as taken care of my dogs that have reached their golden years, and helped them over the rainbow bridge. My top two priorities are communication and safety. Any need you have regarding your pet is of utmost importance because pets aren’t just animals - they’re family! I have two dogs at home, one is 1 1/2 years old and the other is nearly 4. We walk 3 times daily, as well as plenty of enrichment time inside. Enrichment depends on the day, it can be playing with toys, eating treats from snuffle mats, lick mats, or just running around with them until they’re as tired as I am! Safety is my biggest priority. I follow instructions very carefully, I keep a close eye on your fur babies both in the house and outside. I can send real time updates that way you know exactly what is going on at all times, and I will always make sure to ask questions when needed. I can recreate your pets routine as closely as possible, and I will always bring positive energy!
“We feel very fortunate to have met Shannon, she's wonderful! Reliable, trust worthy, and full of great energy. She always takes her time with our doggo and makes each visit special. Also, we very much appreciate her professional background in both firefighting and emergency medical services as it speaks to her general character and mindset, and provides us peace-of-mind that if an emergency situation were to occur, our boy is in the best hands possible.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years. I have experiences with dogs/cats, rodents, farm animals, etc. I grew up around horses and all sorts of other animals and I love them all! I currently have one dog who is the biggest goof and I absolutely adore him. I am currently pregnant so a little extra exercise on walks will never hurt! I enjoy all the cuddles and kisses as well! I love all animals as if they are my own! I’ve also recently been loving going on hikes or a trip to the dog park…if that’s something your fur baby would be interested in I would love for them to join me! I am able to take your pets on walks, run them around a fenced in yard or even just play tug of war in the house! I am comfortable crating animals, administering meds or anything else they might need!
About: I have several years of animal care under my belt, to which I can provide references upon request. I have watched dogs ranging from 2 weeks to 15 years old, friendly to timid, and big to small, so I have a variety of experience and understanding of the needs of each pup. I currently babysit during the day a couple days a week which varies. This commitment is only part of my day, which allows for plenty of time to drop by to walk/feed where might be needed. I am comfortable with any requests from clients in regards to how they wish for me to care for their animals whether it be crating, keeping on a closer leash, etc.

About: Hi there! 🐾 With over 10 years of equine handling experience and many years of dog and pet sitting, I’ve learned that great pet care goes beyond simply being present, it’s about being observant, consistent, and reliable. I take pride in providing calm, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s unique needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, senior, or somewhere in between. I’m very mindful of routines, body language, and individual personalities, and I believe patience and consistency make all the difference in helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I value clear, open communication and always make it a priority to keep owners informed and at ease. From daily visits to extended stays, my goal is to provide a dependable, low-stress experience for both pets and their people. I treat every animal with the same care and respect I would my own, and I’d be honored to care for your pets and farm animals alike. Rates are not set in stone, I am happy to work with you to ensure your pet gets the care they deserve. I work part-time, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. This flexibility gives me the ability to provide consistent, attentive care, accommodate a variety of routines, and spend meaningful, unhurried time with your pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very mindful of both the animals and the space they live in. I approach each visit with a safety-first mindset, taking care to secure doors, gates, and feeding areas, and to follow all instructions exactly as given. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior or environment and respond calmly and responsibly if anything seems out of the ordinary. I understand the trust involved in allowing someone into your home, and I treat that responsibility with respect and professionalism. My goal is to provide a steady, reliable presence so pets remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and owners can feel confident knowing their home and animals are in careful hands.
About: I been around dogs and cats my whole life. I been housesitting for family and friends for the last 5-6years. My grandmother’s pets are on a strict schedule, and diet therefore I understand strict diet. I’ve worked on a farm so I have experience with farm animals, small pets, and some exotic animals. In the last two years, I’ve had two sets of puppies so I know what it takes to care of puppies. My Roxy was 13 year old when we had to put her down from old age, so I know what it takes to care for a senior dog. I’m currently not working, therefore I have plenty of time to cuddle, play and care with your pets. I can send pictures and/or videos thought your vacation for peace of mind! I like taking care of pets in their own house to make them feel as safe as possible. I will follow any rules or instructions you have for your house and pets.
“Stephanie has been my go to walker for months. She is extremely reliable, trustworthy, responsible, and I know my puppy loves to see her. She is professional and has been great at working around my schedule. It has been a relief on the days I’m away from my puppy knowing she will be there to check in on, play with, and walk him. She has also been helpful with advice or suggestions for my puppy, as I am a first time puppy owner. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and reliable to sit or walk their dog. I look forward to continuing to use her walking service.”

“Oh my word. Rebekah was a life-saver. We had a last-minute booking, and at the Meet & Greet, any fears I had were out the window. She is so friendly and welcoming that my pup ran right to her! She has a spacious yard, a spacious dedicated area for several pups to sleep and stretch and nap (complete with cozy chair), and her joy is incredible! You can tell she really loves her job and does so much to care for the pets she watches. Rebekah was so great with sending updates and pictures - we never worried about our pup at all! It was clear she was in exceptionally good hands with Rebekah! We picked up our puppy, and while she was so excited to see us, she still running up to Rebekah like she was already part of the family! Rebekah gave us a full rundown of the stay, and how much fun our pup had with her and when we got home, our puppy passed OUT from all the excitement, fun, and exercise she was able to have with Rebekah. That made our hearts so happy to know that our pup had so much fun while we were gone! We don't leave her too often because of some of her past experiences with her previous owner. Rebekah really cared for our pup and made sure she was able to just be a dog and have a really good couple of days with a new friend.”
“Julie and her family took great care of our dog Penny and treated her as their own. She had a spacious farm to roam and explore and other dogs to socialize with. This was the longest that we have left our dog but Julie provided regular updates of her visit. Our girl returned happy and tired!”
“My pups stayed here twice. They had a good time. They were nice, had a lot of space and came back happy. My daughter even loved seeing the animals. Thanks for keeping my puppies”
“I have to be very picky when choosing sitters as one pup has separation anxiety and will not stay with just anyone. I have had many issues with past sitters being dishonest and not following my guidance but I HIGHLY recommend Tanine!!! I have two very high energy pups (golden doodle and lab). She kept me updated, good and bad, and made sure to give my pup his meds with enough time for them to be effective prior to crating. She ensured to make them as comfortable as possible through the day and I truly appreciate her level of care. I specifically chose her due to the training background and I am so glad I followed through though there were not many reviews. I did not have to ask for pictures or updates throughout. She has small children that seem to love dogs so I know my pups received comfort as they love children. She is a gem! To have the patience and be willing to work with us through his anxiety is not something you find in all Rover sitters. Glad to have finally found a permanent option!”
“Since our first use of Rover, this has been the best visit/offering of service thus far! Sonja &Phil maintained communication and provided photos throughout her entire stay, provided proper feeding (I always give a little extra and sitters would never have any to return), and she came back well and in good health (not the case on 2 occasions with another sitter). I appreciated that Roxy was still able to get outdoors in a enclosed area and I'm sure she did as well because she loves being outdoors. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be looking to use their services again!”
“Connie was AWESOME!!! Her house and yard are gorgeous and she took such great care of Toby. She sent us tons of pictures and our doby puppy came home super happy and worn out (really good for mom and dad). We will definitely book Connie again when we're in the area!! Thank you for being a Rover sitter Connie!!!!”
“Kai had another awesome visit with Dana! She has become our go to and we book her even when her house isn’t on our way out of town. We know he will be loved and well cared for and we will get lots of updates! Thanks again!”
“Heather is amazing! She is so knowledgeable, and understands dog behavior. She watches my two cockapoos. One gets anxious when meeting other dogs, but he had no problem with her guiding him step by step. She walked us and the dogs thru a very comfortable meet and greet with her and China (her adorable pug). My dogs have stayed with her twice. The second time, both my dogs were thrilled to see her, and one ran into her backyard like it was her house. They have never done that with other sitters, so I know my babies are having a great time with Heather. She sends daily pics, and makes us all feel at ease.”
“Leo was extremely well taken care of by a loving family. Plenty of space to run and have fun. Thank you Miss Yeni and Mr Ray for taking care of our beloved Leo”
“Traci is fantastic!! She is very responsive and sent pictures of my pups to me during their stay. She has a beautiful home with a great backyard. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Lorena took such great care of my pup Appa! Her large fenced in backyard allows ample play time and exercise for the pups at her home. I was so happy to see the many pictures she sent me while my husband and I were away. I know Appa had a wonderful time and we are all looking forward to our next visit! Thank you, Lorena!”
“Thank you so much Matisa for keeping my dogs for me. Thanks for the daily updates and pictures of the boys. They returned home safely and they are so relaxed and not so talkative 😂. Best person I ever let to keep my boys. Thanks again.”
“Amazing!! My pup had a great time. Plenty of space for the dogs to run around and be dogs. Wonderful communication so you don’t have to stress while you are away. I won’t be bringing my dog anywhere else.”
“Phillip was an excellent host for my dogs. After previous arrangements fell through at the last minute, Phillip was happy to step up and board them. He stayed in communication with me and sent multiple pics and videos of my furry kids having fun. They looked like they were having so much fun, I wasn’t sure they would want to leave! I would highly recommend Phillip to anybody looking to board their dogs. They will be well cared for while you’re away.”
“Sarah and Jacob are so great! Duncan loves going to their house. Sarah and Jacob are so reliable and communication with them is seamless. We will always have Sarah and Jacob watch our pup.”
“Highly recommend! She took amazing care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and pictures. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such great hands. Will definitely book again!”
“This was our first time with Jennifer, and it was the best experience! Her dog Charolette has now become my girls best friend. Jennifer was very responsive and sent tons of pictures. She made our trip wonderful because we knew our girls were well cared for!! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!”
