“I would highly recommend Cassandre for watching your pet. She kept in good contact with us by sending pictures or txt. Ziggy enjoyed his time. I’ll be using her again!”
“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”
“Kendra is always so amazing! She sends me regular updates and makes sure my fur baby has equal play and rest time. I truly trust my Yasha with her and her family 1000 percent and my vacations are that much better, knowing I don’t have to worry when I’m away from Yasha! What a blessing!!”
“Adam is a natural, per Cooper. We knew the moment we met him that Cooper was in good hands. Cooper took to him immediately and made himself at home. We got him back last night and Cooper was calm and happy. Thanks Adam!!!”
About: I've been providing loving and dependable dog boarding care for over years, and caring for dogs has truly become a part of my family life. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where every pup can feel at home while their family is away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and life stages from small breeds to giant breeds, energetic puppies to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so we take the time to provide personalized care for each pup. I am also comfortable following detailed care instructions, including administering oral medications, injections, supplements, and special feeding routines, as directed by pet parents and their veterinarian. I also have experience providing palliative and comfort-focused care for senior dogs or dogs with additional needs. After more than years in the dog boarding world, I still genuinely love what I do and look forward to continuing to provide pups with plenty of love, attention, playtime, comfort, and care while they’re away from home. 🐾❤️ Pet care is a big part of our everyday routine. Since I provide care from home, I am able to spend plenty of time with the dogs throughout the day and give them the attention, supervision, and companionship they need. My daily routine includes regular potty breaks, outdoor playtime, feeding according to each dog’s schedule, medication when needed, rest periods, and lots of love and attention. I also make sure each pup has time to settle in, relax, and feel comfortable in their new environment. I keep my schedule flexible because every dog is different. Whether I am caring for an energetic puppy, an adult dog who loves to play, or a senior pup who prefers a slower and quieter routine, I adjust my day to meet their individual needs. 🐾 Safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, secure, and welcoming environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. My home has a fully enclosed 6-foot vinyl privacy fence, giving our guests a secure outdoor space for supervised potty breaks, fresh air, exercise, and playtime. I also keep fresh, clean water bowls available outside during playtime and outdoor time, so our pups always have easy access to water and can stay hydrated, especially during warmer days. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, supplements, potty routines, sleeping arrangements, and any special needs or restrictions. I supervise interactions and take the time to understand each dog’s personality, behavior, and comfort level. Dogs are separated when needed for meals, rest, safety, or simply when they need their own personal space. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or behavior and communicate with pet parents if I notice anything concerning. With over years of boarding experience, I understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your dog. I treat every pup with patience, respect, affection, and individualized care, with the goal of making their stay feel safe, comfortable, and as close to home as possible. 🐾
“PC and Will did a tremendous job at ensuring we felt comfortable after leaving Monty with them for the first time. They sent photos daily and were more than willing to converse via text when necessary. I definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a new Rover!!”
“Jayla took such great care of Lexi while we were away. She sent regular updates, photos, and videos, it was clear Lexi was happy, comfortable, and in great hands the whole time.

We highly recommend Jayla to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

“Amanda did a fantastic job with Willow. I was impressed with Amanda’s follow up. I received pictures multiple times a day. She understands that Willow is my world. She made sure that I knew that Willow was eating interacting with the other dogs and comfortable where she was. Not only will I rebook with Amanda. I already have.”
“Julie took great care of my dog Dakota while I was gone. Dakota can have some separation anxiety at first, but Julie and her pups helped her feel comfortable and home during her stay. I would definitely use Julie again to watch Dakota. She retuned to me happy and healthy. Thank you Julie for taking such good care of my best girl!”
“First time using Rover but wanted to have more of a home feel for my puppies first time being boarded. Miranda was really nice and provided pics and videos of my puppy during his stay. Miranda will also be keeping Miles when I go on vacation in March for a longer period of time, but trust he will be in good hands.”
“Abby saved the day for us, she welcomed our fur baby in with open arms and even though he can be quite a handful she held her own! I would highly recommend Abby to anyone who wants a personal touch with the right amount of professionalism. Abby knew what she was doing and put any apprehensions we may had completely to rest! If I could rate her higher than 5 stars I would - looking forward to using her services in the future. Thank you!!!!”

“I would like to thank Katie for taking care of my beautiful kitty. She was able to come in everyday and take care of Elfaba. She spent a reasonable amount of time at our home while we were away; she made sure that Elfaba didn't feel alone.

From what I have saw, she was so kind and loving to Elfaba, and apparently our plants loved her energy because they look amazing. Thank you Katie for keeping our home alive!”

“Erika was absolutely amazing! We have 12 cats, so caring for our household is no small task, especially while we were away on an international trip to Europe. She followed every instruction carefully, kept us updated with lots of photos, and went above and beyond what we expected.

We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were in such good hands. We are so glad we found her and will absolutely book her again for future trips. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Luna Laruen was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable while I was away.

I would absolutely recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I would definitely book again and plan to do so!”
“Garrett was awesome! He was very communicative from the beginning and was on time and attentive to our cats' needs every day. One of our boys had a little accident and he went out of his way and cleaned it up! Would definitely recommend him and will use him again in the future!”

About: Quality over quantity; that’s how we approach pet care. We’re a mother-daughter team with more than 20 years of experience loving and caring for dogs, and we prefer to welcome one family’s dogs at a time so every pup receives the personalized attention they deserve. I’m Loni, a retired kindergarten teacher and lifelong dog lover, and my daughter Jayla is a pre-med college student. Together, we bring patience, attentiveness, compassion, and lots of love to every stay. Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs—from high-energy puppies to seniors requiring a gentler pace. We’re comfortable administering medications, maintaining feeding and medication schedules, reinforcing basic routines, and providing extra patience and attention to dogs with special needs. Our experience includes caring for both blind and deaf dogs. After loving three dogs of our own who have since passed, our home has become much quieter. As an empty nester, I now have the time, flexibility, and plenty of love to give your fur baby. They aren't just boarding with us; they become part of our family while they're here. Our guests enjoy a peaceful, non-smoking home, a large fenced backyard, plenty of companionship, couch cuddles, playtime, walks, and lots of individual attention. Someone is home much of the day, so your pup won't routinely spend long stretches alone. And expect pictures! We love keeping pet parents updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your baby is safe, comfortable, and loved. Fewer dogs. More attention. Lots of love. ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into our lives. I’m a retired kindergarten teacher and empty nester, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be home much of the day. That means plenty of time for potty breaks, backyard play, walks, meals, medications, naps—and, of course, cuddles. My daughter Jayla is a pre-med college student and joins me in caring for our guests when she’s home. Our mother-daughter partnership combines my flexible retired lifestyle and years of caregiving experience with Jayla’s energy, attentiveness, and love of animals. Because we focus on quality over quantity and prefer to care for one family’s dogs at a time, we can adapt our day around your pup’s normal routine rather than expecting them to adapt to ours. Whether your dog wants to play outside, follow me around the house, nap beside me, or curl up on the couch, there’s usually someone nearby to keep them company. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. Our peaceful, non-smoking home features a large, fully fenced backyard and doggie door, giving pups plenty of opportunities for fresh air, potty breaks, and backyard play—with supervision tailored to each dog's needs. We prefer to host one family’s dogs at a time, creating a calmer environment without a revolving door of unfamiliar boarding dogs. This also allows us to learn your pup’s personality and give them more individualized attention. We follow your instructions closely and do our best to maintain the routines your dog knows at home; including meals, medications, potty breaks, sleep schedules, walks, playtime, and downtime. We have experience caring for puppies, seniors, dogs requiring medication, and special-needs dogs, including blind and deaf pups. Inside, dogs are treated like family. If they're allowed on your furniture at home, they're welcome to cuddle with us on ours. You're also encouraged to bring their favorite bed, blanket, toys, crate, or anything else that helps our home feel familiar. We believe trust extends to pet parents, too, so we'll communicate with you and send photos and updates throughout their stay.
“Griff loves G! She gives him lots of attention, affection, and always makes him feel part of the family. Griff really appreciates the sniffing adventures she plans for him. Thanks G for providing my pup with great care and love!”
About: Lifelong Pet Lover with Years of Experience Hi, I’ve been around pets my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I started walking and feeding my family dogs at just 7 years old, twice a day, making sure they had plenty of playtime and fresh air in our grassy yard. From playful puppies to gentle giants, I’ve handled dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m confident with potty training and establishing healthy routines for any breed. Since I was 15, I’ve also cared for cats, both my family’s and my friends’. I keep litter boxes clean and ensure they stay off surfaces where they might break or damage anything, all while making sure they feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s a long walk, a cozy cuddle, or responsible in-home care, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the chance to care for your furry friend. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time throughout the week to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday drop-in, or overnight stay, I’m available and committed to working around your needs. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked, they’ll have my full attention and care. Comfortable, Spacious, and Pet-Friendly Home Your pet will feel right at home here. I have a large backyard and a spacious home with plenty of room for dogs to play, explore, and relax. While the yard is not fenced, I always supervise outdoor time to ensure pets stay safe and secure. If you use training tools like an e-collar and provide them, I’m happy to use them responsibly and only according to your guidance. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, just like family.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from young puppies to large breeds, and I’m confident handling a wide range of needs and personalities. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays healthy and safe. I also have experience with basic puppy training, helping reinforce good habits and routines. What sets me apart is my patience and understanding, especially with dogs who have separation anxiety or need extra reassurance. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own, paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual needs so they get the best care possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they need. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and even last-minute bookings when needed. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or extended stays, I'm able to adjust my routine to match your pet's schedule and keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for them. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to being there when you and vour pet need me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious three-floor condo that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and feel comfortable. I also have a friendly six-year-old dog who gets along well with other animals, helping visiting pets feel more at ease. My two daughters are gentle and respectful with animals, adding to the loving environment your pet will be in. I live in a great area for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent and stress-free by maintaining their normal routine and environment. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have loved animals my entire life and have had more than one family pet from the day I was born. I worked in veterinary care for a good bit of time, and I have been trusted by many families to care for their animals while they were away on trips. I am comfortable giving medicine, working on obedience, and giving more snuggles than your pup will know what to do with. My husband works from home 3-4 days a week, so your dog would have many opportunities to go outside and to be loved on. I am available Monday through Friday for lunch time check-ins and potty breaks, and I'm available for walks after 5pm Monday through Friday. We could also accommodate over-night boarding any day of the week, as long as we do not have a previously scheduled weekend away. While I do not have a fenced in yard, our family loves to be outside and take walks as much as possible through out the day. We also have our energetic 5 year old dog, Maverick, to keep your dog company through out the day and engage in play. We have ample space in our home for a crate. Our daughter also loves to throw the ball and makes sure her puppy feels loved all the time.
About: I'm a long time pet owner familiar with all sorts of animals including dogs, turtles, fish, birds and reptiles. I'm happy to help care for your puppies, senior animals and animals with health issues including animals which require special medication or shots. I work full time from my home but I am available early mornings, lunch time and after working hours to take care of your pets. Let me know what you need and we can figure out something which works. I'm flexible. We do like to travel so I may not always be around but when I am, I'm happy to help. We have had several dogs through the years, big, medium and small. Love them all. I'm big into running and getting outdoors so I'm happy to take you pups for long walks or even a short jog. We also have a house full of other animals including fish, turtles and previously birds. I'm happy to help out with all types of animals, feathered, scaled or furry.
“Rachel was able to accommodate my last-minute request and took great care of Toby! She gave him the attention, exercise, and care he needed, and I really appreciated her flexibility. I would definitely recommend Rachel!”
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats since I was a kiddo. Currently we have two spoiled dogs and two sweet cats. I take my two dogs on a mile or two walk every day. I started my own pet sitting business in my 20’s after working for a small pet company. I also was working FT with adults with disabilities. I have cared for a wide variety of animals even giving a diabetic cat shots and caring for a blind and a deaf dog. I’ve also had the opportunity to take care of rabbits, birds and even a very social ferret. Once I became busy raising my own family, I stopped working FT but continued watching friends’ and neighbors’ animals on the side. I’m the type of person who stops to pet other people’s dogs when I’m out on a walk. ❤️ My husband and I have 5 kids, two of which live at home. I’m also a grandma with a second baby otw! As a family we’ve always had cats and dogs as well as guinea pigs, gerbils, turtle and a lizard. I’m currently working very part-time so have lots of time to love on your animals. I’m available most days and on the weekends as well. I’d love to walk your dogs and/or play with them in your backyard and hang out with them while you’re away. I also would love to give your kitties lots of attention.
“Morgan was FANTASTIC in every way! This was the first time our Lab puppy was left alone for more than (2) nights and Morgan created a wonderful experience for both Tilly and our family. She emailed me daily updates and photos of our pup, always checked in with us and treated Tilly like a member of your family. Morgan, I can't thank you enough for loving Tilly and keeping her safe and happy when we were gone.”
About: Pet-Friendly Family Ready for Wagging Tails. Think of me as your dog's favorite aunt! I'm not a dog owners yet—not because I don't want to be, but because I am waiting for the right time. In the meantime, I love welcoming dogs into our home and giving them all the love, care, and attention they deserve. When your pup stays with me, they'll be treated like family, so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and surrounded by people who genuinely love having them here. I'm currently a freelance part time designer who have time to share and enjoy of your dog company. We are a small dog friendly family.

About: Cared for domesticated and farm animals for 15 years, experienced with seniors/special needs. Our animals are our family, and it is my passion to see that they are treated so while in my care! I offer attentive care, whether your pet needs structured play, gentle companionship, or just a calm presence. I believe it is important to meet wherever your pet needs! Your pet’s safety and quality of care are my top priorities. I offer a fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, but animals are never left outside alone.

My dog Pacha, is great at helping new dogs feel like part of the pack and always ready to greet a new friend. I treat each guest like an individual with their own boundaries, routines, and needs. Your pet is encouraged to make themselves at home, but I also provide a calm, separate space within the main living quarters if they need quiet time to decompress. Whether your pet is energetic or shy, social or reserved, this is a place where they’ll feel protected, understood, and loved like family.

“Highly recommend Brian! If you want to make your dogs, and you, so happy, Brian crushes in a really important way. He communicated a lot and I knew I could rely on him.. Even on the initial meet & greet. He confirms before every visit that he’ll be there, you know when he arrives and departs, and you get an update of the visit with pictures. He seriously reduced my anxiety while I was out of town. He visited midday (my hubby was home at night) to feed them and give them a walk. They were so happy during the week and I attribute a lot of this to Brian’s attention and his love of dogs we saw from him on the meet & greet. My 2 dogs are 100 lbs and a reactive 75 lbs and he walked them together.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 9 years now. I have walked them, dropped in for visits when requested, and treated them as if they were mine. I have experience with dogs of all ages. For me, taking care of your furry family member is a privilege. I want you to know your dog is as important to me as they are to you. I am currently enrolled in college locally. Therefore, I am very flexible because my classes are online. My schedule can easily be adjusted to accommodate your needs. I have a dog and cat who I care for on a regular basis. I play with my dog as well as I give both of them a lot of attention. I also comfort my dog and cat if they are stressed.
“Wesley was Fabulous with our dogs Dega and Ripley. He spent a lot of time with them and gave them lots of attention. This is what I want in a Dog Sitter / Walker.”
About: I have two cats and two dogs myself and have been dog sitting since 14 years old. I love going on walks and love to be able to take a buddy with me! I recently got a puppy who I have been training and could pass on my self taught skills onto your animal if wanted. I love animals which is why I chose to sign up on rover ! I currently am doing online college so do not have a full time or part time job! I am available whenever for whatever your pets needs are! I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pets can feel comfortable and secure. I always prioritize their safety by keeping a close eye on them, following routines exactly as instructed, and making sure they’re in a clean, pet-friendly space at all times. Building trust is really important to me, so I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and boundaries to make sure they feel at ease. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just relaxing, I create a positive and stress-free environment where your pets are treated like my own.
About: I’ve been watching neighborhood and family pets since I was 13, both cats and dogs, elderly and young. I know when to give attention or whether to give them space. Hey! You can also call me Jaxon (he/him.) I’m auditioning for local theatres in Richmond, so my schedule is rather flexible. Weekends and weekdays are currently open, with room for rehearsals and show dates. I’d cater to whatever the pet needs. Some animals like to explore, so I’d supervise as they do so. Others are more reclusive, so I’d keep watch from a respectful distance.
“Erika was absolutely amazing! She was so good and so sweet with my dog! She took her on such a long walk and I got to see videos of her playing at the dog park. I’m always nervous being away from my baby so getting to see videos made me feel so good! She went above and beyond and I am so thankful! Will be booking her every time I need a walker for Mabel!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I am looking forward to opportunities to care for your dog(s) or cat(s) while you are away and love them like they were my own. I have a fenced in yard and live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of walking trails. I have three children, ages 10, 12, and 14 that grew up with dogs and learned how to be loving and respectful to animals. I’m a high school teacher so I’m able to be home during the summer and school holidays. My routine includes a morning, afternoon and an evening walk after dinner. The fenced backyard provides opportunities for exercise outside of walks. I follow your pets normal feeding schedule and will only provide the food and treats that you provide to avoid any allergy or food intolerance concerns. On school days, my husband is typically working from home so there is usually someone home without long periods of being left home alone. Pets are cared for as part of the family and receive lots of love and attention.
About: I have been taking care of my own dogs since I was young and love to be around all animals! I used to nanny for a family with 5 kids and they had a wonderful dog that I always helped to care for! Feeding and taking him to the groomers and vet appointments…all things that I was lucky to get to help with! I also used to care for 2 cats (both needing to take medication) and a bull dog on a daily basis! I have a Jack Russell (that just passed away) myself that I had for about 10+ years and no kids do she was my only fur baby! I have recently in the past year gotten a brand new puppy named Sugar! She is a beagle/terrier/lab mix and 25 pounds of Adorableness! She is so sweet And absolutely my little girl, as she follows me everywhere and tries to be wherever I am, and always under foot!!! She’s a little skittish and still all puppy at eight months! So I am no stranger to puppy needs at all! I also have Bella, who is a pit/beagle mix and she is a little over a year and a half old! She is 60 pounds of crazy but happy and smart and always at my husband side! What a love bug! But remember, with pets, there is no personal space! Lol I love pets of all kinds and will care for them as if they were my own! Snuggles are free!!! I am currently a part-time private nanny, to a bunch of different families who may need care for their little ones day a week, and my schedule is always changing from week to week so my availability will always be changing. But,I will try to keep my Rover calendar up-to-date as I hope more of you reach out! The plan is is turn this into a full-time gig so I will have probably more availability as time goes on towards the end of this year, but I’m hoping to find some regular clients that will book with me on a consistent basis! Plus, I’m really looking forward to all the pet snuggles! I am always very mindful of the time for feedings and walks…any medication will be given correctly and timely…I will make sure your home is locked up after I leave from a walk and/or feeding! Please know that I will do my best to. Gain the trust of the animal! Cats too! I do highly recommend a meet & greet ahead of time so we can meet pet parents and also meet dog(s)! Let’s them see me and hopefully remember me and feel comfortable with me in their house! (*Please note: House Sitting rates apply to stays where overnight accommodations (a clean bed/space) are provided in your home. If you prefer daytime/evening visits only without overnight stays, please book via my Drop-In rates!)
About: Growing up with both cats and dogs gave me the experience I need to take care of a wide variety of critters. My favorite is my mini dachshund, Chipper, who I raised and trained myself from a young age. I continue to give my little buddy high quality care 9 years later as he's battling his unfortunate health conditions. I plan on treating your pets with the same sort of love and consideration! I'm a student at JMU and I am home in Moseley, VA for the summer of 2026! I would be more than happy to work with you! My calendar has the correct dates available! I treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. They deserve nothing but the best, and I’m dedicated to providing just that! I’ll shower your pet with affection and treat them like royalty—because they truly are.
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for animals, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I look after. I currently have two rescue tuxedo cats (one with only one eye and nearly blind) and a well-loved flock of 25 chickens, and I’ve spent the past five years dog sitting for friends and neighbors after many years of owning dogs myself. I’m very comfortable with different personalities and routines. I’m attentive and genuinely enjoy all animals. I will always make your pets feel safe and cared for with walks and plenty of playtime! I just retired after a 22 year career in marketing to watch my first grandchild part time- which gives me extra hours to help you with your pet care! I am as attentive to your fur babies as I am to my own. I genuinely love spending time with all animals and will take great care of yours, too!
About: I’ve watch dogs and cats for four years when needed, from a one time visit to 2 weeks of checking in three times daily. I’ve also handled turtles and fish in the same capacity. Am happy to clean out a litter box, take a dog on a walk, or do more. Any added bookings within 24 hours of the first check in, or during visits, is subject to an additional 16$ fee. Any bookings more than a 15 mile drive may be subjected to an additional one time 20$ fee! I’m a student full time and therefore am out of the house from around 9-2 most days but am otherwise available for your pet care needs. I love to spend some extra time at a clients home giving their animal more love and affection to ensure they don’t feel lonely or abandoned.
About: Hi there! I’m Fabrizio, proud dog parent to Bruno, my 5-year-old buddy who taught me that every pup has their own personality and needs. Over the years I’ve also cared for the pets of friends and family — from playful puppies to older dogs that just need extra love and attention. I’m flexible, reliable, and love keeping owners updated with pics and messages. With me, every walk is an adventure and every cuddle feels like home. 🐾🐶 I work as an independent sports agent, which means most of my job is done from my phone and laptop. Because of this, I have a very flexible schedule and can easily adjust my day around walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. Whether it’s mornings, afternoons, evenings, or even weekends, I can usually make it work. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s routine and find the perfect times to keep them happy and cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. When I’m in your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions carefully to make sure your pets feel comfortable and secure. I treat every house as if it were my own, with responsibility and care. On walks, I’m always alert to surroundings, traffic, and other animals. I keep dogs safely leashed, avoid risky situations, and make sure they get exercise in a fun but safe way. You can trust that your pets will always be in good hands with me.
“We used Katie for the first time and she did a great job. She went above and beyond to take care of our 10 year springer spaniel. We were updated regularly and our dog looked to be in better shape than we left him and very happy. She is very trustworthy and she is the only person we would use in the future.”
About: I'm a cat mom to three rescues, including one with a chronic heart condition and asthma, requiring ongoing inhaler treatments and other medication. I'm also experienced caring for senior pets, and pets with special health needs or general anxiety. Every pet I care for gets spoiled like my own. Animals know when someone is comfortable around them and when someone actually cares. I take the time to get to know them, see what makes them happy, what stresses them out, whether they want to play or just want someone nearby for companionship. I'm available mornings, for mid-day walks or playtime, and evenings, and can do multiple visits a day if your pet needs it. With 30 years caring for pets, including seniors and pets with special health needs, I know consistency matters, so you can count on me showing up when I say I will. I always offer new clients a free 30-minute meet-and-greet before the first booking, either at your home or a public location, so I can meet your pet(s) in person. This is the perfect time to show me where everything lives: food, bowls, litter boxes, and anything else I'll need for the visit. While you're away, I'll send daily updates and photos so you can relax and enjoy your trip worry free. My focus is on keeping your pet safe and secure while I am caring for your pet in your home. I make sure doors and gates are secure before I leave, and I do a check for anything out that could be dangerous to your pet. I follow feeding and medication instructions exactly as given, no guesswork, and keep things as close to your pet's normal routine as possible, especially for seniors or pets with special health needs.
About: I work with a variety of animals from horses to dogs, this includes simple checkups to dog/house sitting! I love being outside and going for walks myself and find it so much more enjoyable with a furry companion. From hyper to chill dogs we can go for walks or runs!! I am doing this to make money for college and hopefully transfer to a university that will foster my passion in engineering. Thank you for considering me :) I am a student with a very flexible schedule as long as we communicate prior to your expectations I can be sure to be a reliable and responsible person to take care of your loved ones. I am completely free on the weekends and in the mornings and late afternoons to evenings on the weekdays when school starts august 25th. During the summer i am completely available everyday! I have a backyard with no fence but a big home, I live with my cat and backyard chickens. My house is tucked away from any busy roads and the yard has clear visibility all around!

“I would highly recommend Cassandre for watching your pet. She kept in good contact with us by sending pictures or txt. Ziggy enjoyed his time. I’ll be using her again!”
“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”
“Adam is a natural, per Cooper. We knew the moment we met him that Cooper was in good hands. Cooper took to him immediately and made himself at home. We got him back last night and Cooper was calm and happy. Thanks Adam!!!”
About: I've been providing loving and dependable dog boarding care for over years, and caring for dogs has truly become a part of my family life. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where every pup can feel at home while their family is away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and life stages from small breeds to giant breeds, energetic puppies to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so we take the time to provide personalized care for each pup. I am also comfortable following detailed care instructions, including administering oral medications, injections, supplements, and special feeding routines, as directed by pet parents and their veterinarian. I also have experience providing palliative and comfort-focused care for senior dogs or dogs with additional needs. After more than years in the dog boarding world, I still genuinely love what I do and look forward to continuing to provide pups with plenty of love, attention, playtime, comfort, and care while they’re away from home. 🐾❤️ Pet care is a big part of our everyday routine. Since I provide care from home, I am able to spend plenty of time with the dogs throughout the day and give them the attention, supervision, and companionship they need. My daily routine includes regular potty breaks, outdoor playtime, feeding according to each dog’s schedule, medication when needed, rest periods, and lots of love and attention. I also make sure each pup has time to settle in, relax, and feel comfortable in their new environment. I keep my schedule flexible because every dog is different. Whether I am caring for an energetic puppy, an adult dog who loves to play, or a senior pup who prefers a slower and quieter routine, I adjust my day to meet their individual needs. 🐾 Safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, secure, and welcoming environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. My home has a fully enclosed 6-foot vinyl privacy fence, giving our guests a secure outdoor space for supervised potty breaks, fresh air, exercise, and playtime. I also keep fresh, clean water bowls available outside during playtime and outdoor time, so our pups always have easy access to water and can stay hydrated, especially during warmer days. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, supplements, potty routines, sleeping arrangements, and any special needs or restrictions. I supervise interactions and take the time to understand each dog’s personality, behavior, and comfort level. Dogs are separated when needed for meals, rest, safety, or simply when they need their own personal space. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or behavior and communicate with pet parents if I notice anything concerning. With over years of boarding experience, I understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your dog. I treat every pup with patience, respect, affection, and individualized care, with the goal of making their stay feel safe, comfortable, and as close to home as possible. 🐾
“PC and Will did a tremendous job at ensuring we felt comfortable after leaving Monty with them for the first time. They sent photos daily and were more than willing to converse via text when necessary. I definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a new Rover!!”
“Laura and DJ took such great care of our dogs, Benny and Kiwi, while we were away for our wedding weekend!! They sent regular picture and video updates of the pups playing, getting love, and having fun. I can’t thank them enough! Definitely 10/10 recommend booking with them!”
“Amanda did a fantastic job with Willow. I was impressed with Amanda’s follow up. I received pictures multiple times a day. She understands that Willow is my world. She made sure that I knew that Willow was eating interacting with the other dogs and comfortable where she was. Not only will I rebook with Amanda. I already have.”
“Julie took great care of my dog Dakota while I was gone. Dakota can have some separation anxiety at first, but Julie and her pups helped her feel comfortable and home during her stay. I would definitely use Julie again to watch Dakota. She retuned to me happy and healthy. Thank you Julie for taking such good care of my best girl!”
“First time using Rover but wanted to have more of a home feel for my puppies first time being boarded. Miranda was really nice and provided pics and videos of my puppy during his stay. Miranda will also be keeping Miles when I go on vacation in March for a longer period of time, but trust he will be in good hands.”
“Abby saved the day for us, she welcomed our fur baby in with open arms and even though he can be quite a handful she held her own! I would highly recommend Abby to anyone who wants a personal touch with the right amount of professionalism. Abby knew what she was doing and put any apprehensions we may had completely to rest! If I could rate her higher than 5 stars I would - looking forward to using her services in the future. Thank you!!!!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Leidy! She took excellent care of our senior dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away.

“Maddie was absolutely amazing with our puppy! She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind.

We highly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sure! Here’s a thoughtful review you can use: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amanda and Adam did an amazing job pet-sitting my dog over the weekend! They made sure she felt right at home, sending me daily updates and adorable pictures that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they truly cared for her, and I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. I really appreciate their reliability and kindness, and I will absolutely continue to use them in the future. Highly recommend!”
