“Such a caring family that really cares about the pups that stay with them. Can’t say enough good things about how well they looked after our dog Jack! Thank you so very much!!”
“Allison and her husband are so freaking AWESOME! Yenn had a blast with her and their two dogs. I received daily pictures and updates, and it's obvious these are people who love dogs. Yenn was thoroughly tired but happy upon her return. Allison is great with communication and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We are incredibly grateful for Araceli for watching our two pups! It’s our 2nd boarding experience with her - 1st for our 5-month old - and they were well taken care of. Def one of the best Rover experiences we’ve had”
“We were very happy with our puppies stay. We received many photos and videos updating us on how much fun the dogs were having. We were very pleased and will be booking with Mary again in the future! :)”
“Tony was great to work with! He had a great set up and was able to support the needs of our pup. I fully trusted him with our dog and will be preferring to work with him again in the future. During the time that our dog was with Tony, we were recieving cute pictures of the adventures that she went on.”
“Carolyn was so communicative and sent us such great photos and videos of our puppy while we were away! We are so appreciate of her awesome care and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Melissa is great with dogs! I could tell my dog trusted her right away and was wagging her tail as I left. Melissa kept me up to date and was really helpful in modifying the stay when my schedule changed. You can tell Melissa cares about dogs and makes sure they are well cared for.”
“Steve is great! We have a dog who takes a bit to settle in and can be really loud. Steve knows what he was doing and got our pup to a place where he was comfy and happy. Which isn’t common! Steve will be our go to from here on out! Thank you Steve!!”
About: All my life I have had pets, dogs, cats, hamsters, and even a ferret named Simba. I have had two dogs from puppy to seniors and reaching the rainbow bridge. I have two labs now and some farm animals. My husband and I have raised two boys and he is retired and we are just wanting to do something on the side we love to stay busy. I work from home or anywhere so I can stay with your pets in the safety of their own home or they are welcome to stay with us on the farm as long as they get along with other dogs. I cannot board cats however due to my dogs lack of exposure. In your home I would keep them close to their usual routine and make sure all their needs are met and patiently comfort their anxiety over missing you. In my home we have over an acre of fenced area perfect for dogs to run and play. I again would accommodate their schedules and give lots of love and attention. We have baby gates that keep pets with us in living area. If they are used to sleeping with humans I am totally okay with that, whatever they prefer.
“Highly recommend. It was my first time using rover and we were hesitant on leaving our 4 month old basset with anyone, but he had a blast with her lab Marshall and we recieved picture updates daily. I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home with all the fun he was having.”
“Linda and Bob were able to care for our sweet pup on short notice. As mentioned before, dogs are kept in personal enclosure in separate garage/office. It is extremely clean and they take dogs out often to personal play yard. Our dog looked happy and was clearly enjoying himself in every picture we received. We will definitely use Linda and Bob again!”
“Jenny and her family were so great in taking on our rambunctious, 2 year old, Corgi and our elderly, gentle giant, Great Dane. We received updates every step of the way and both dogs immediately made themselves right at home. Will definitely use Jenny again!!”
“Our Shepherd mix was right at home with Hailey and her family. He got 24/7 care, family love and attention. Hailey was easy to communicate with and worked with our special food mix that needed to be refrigerated. Great property to roam in the yard and lots of area to run and play. We will definitely bring our dog back.”
“Luba was so wonderful in her care for our sweet Scout. She gave her so much love, cuddles and made her feel like a part of their family while we were away! We will happily ask her to care for Scout again in the future. Could not recommend enough!!”
“Claire and Jason are awesome! They are great at communicating, and send pictures often! They played with Denver and took him on walks and hikes and made sure to give him lots of cuddles. They also have children who gave him so much attention. Would highly recommend to anyone!”
“I was so happy to get updates and photos every day! It made me feel like she was in good hands, and I liked the reminder she was doing well. It sounds like my cat had a great time and was entertained during her stay. Thank you!”

I'm available: All Sundays & Tuesdays all day, and in the afternoon to evenings Monday, Wednesday, Thursday Not available: Fridays and Saturdays.

“We were so happy to leave our 3 week old kitten who needed constant care. Kimberly did a great job of keeping us updated on Bobby’s day! She help him use kitty litter for the first time. We have already rebooked for an upcoming day!”
“Sara was once again just amazing! 12 hour days without a potty break is just plain mean, so we got Sara to break up the day. While I was out of town and my wife worked those 12hr days, Sara came up for 30 minutes each day and let them out and played with them (though she sometimes stayed for an hour letting the dogs have fun in the yard), even brought her little one for a doggie date! Couldn't be more happy with her! We'll be in touch again Sara! Thanks for your great care of our family!!!”
About: Hi! I've lived and worked with animals since I was about 9 years old. I grew up on a farm with dogs horses and cats and lots of other livestock babies. Just recently during covid also did foster care for many dogs. It gives me such joy and warmth hanging out with animals and seeing there personalities come out. We are all animals and I love being around them and caring for them. Thank you for your time! I'm currently between careers, I'm going on a trip to Costa Rica in late November and am looking for something to fill the time that I enjoy. I have alot of availability to provide services to lots of happy animals. I am a responsible adult that is very used to keeping a constant eye and ear on said animals wellbeing. I would treat these babies as if they where my own which would include constant adoration and positive encouragement.
About: I have taken care of a dog, a cat, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. I love walking long distances with my dog. I am also very good at reading animal body language and I know how to do all of the basic animal care necessities. I am currently working from home so I would have lots of time for walks and hikes and play. I will make sure your dog comes home happy and tired. I do have a golden retriever and our schedule that your dog would also follow unless they’re special needs is we wake up at seven am, we go outside to go potty, then feed them they play and rest then we go for a walk. We love our Whipple Creek 🌲❤️ Trail then we drive home and rest. Then later I give them their second feeding, take them out to go to the bathroom and take a small walk in our neighborhood before it’s time to rest and chill and head to bed. I live in a cozy gated apartment with my husband, Greg and my golden retriever. My husband works as a in-home caregiver and when he gets home he helps me out. He is also an animal lover, and if I am housesitting, he travels with me as well as my very friendly golden retriever. I promise as a married couple we will respect your house and environment we will also bring our own sleeping equipment and we don’t mind doing house chores.
About: Hi there! My name is Kasy. I love all dogs and have plenty of experience. I’ve grown up with dogs, horses and chickens. I have been training animals for nearly 7 years now. My best friend is my dog Riley. She loves meeting other dogs as well. I’m not only experienced with only dogs but farm animals too. I am the biggest animal lover and would love to meet your pets. If you have any questions please make sure to reach out. Thanks ! I am currently working part time at a school. After 2:30 I am free to play with furry friends. In about 3 weeks my schedule will change into full availability with the exception of saturday and sunday mornings. I have a fenced yard, dog crates and beds for my pups. They rarely use the crates and are used to roaming free at our house and the fenced dog park
About: I have my own dogs and I’ve watched my families dogs as well. I’d say I definitely have experience in taking care of them so it’s not a worry. Typically free weekdays & busy weekends. My days are usually pretty flexible. Can adjust schedule if need be, just message & we can work something out! (: I offer lots of play time and one on one time with your pets. I’ll keep them safe, fed, and most importantly have fun 💖
About: Every dog needs companionship. There are many different breeds of dogs, but they are all taken care of basically the same. I have my own dog named willow who is currently with my friend in California. I've been watching my family's friends dogs for the last 2 years now and I'm looking to work more and willing to do whatever your pet needs to be comfortable and and happy as can be. I promise to take care of your pets, whether its feeding them at the correct times that you normally would and take them on long walks or to the dog park to run around. Any dog is welcome I will never turn down a dog. I would love the chance to meet your dog and give them a nice place to go while your gone.
“Fantastic first booking with Derrick. Kit Kats were well attended to and very comfortable with a new visitor! Derrick kept in good touch with visit updates - no concerns, will be rebooking.”
About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life. When I lived in Russia, we had a pug that was with us for 10 years. Now, living in America, I continue my journey as a pet owner with a Yorkshire Terrier and a Maltese. Caring for two small dogs requires special attention and knowledge of their specific needs. I feed them daily, groom their coats, take them for walks, and play with them to ensure they stay healthy and happy. I know how to provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets, especially when their owners are away. For me, taking care of animals is not just a job but an opportunity to show my love and help to them. I sincerely love animals and am ready to do everything possible to make them feel comfortable and happy. I may not have the most extensive experience and skills, but I am prepared to provide a high level of care for pets, regardless of their breed and needs. Additionally, I am happy to take care of and look after cats, knowing how important it is to create a cozy and safe environment for them. Pet care fits very well into my routine. I have school only two days a week, and each day is just about two hours, so I’m very flexible and available most of the time. This allows me to focus on the pets I care for, follow their schedule, and give them plenty of attention throughout the day. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I make sure pets are supervised, have access to fresh water, and stay in a clean, pet-friendly space. I follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedule, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I introduce pets slowly to new environments, avoid unsafe areas, and always use leashes outdoors. I maintain good communication with owners, provide updates, and send photos so they feel confident their pet is happy and safe. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you complete peace of mind.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of attentive care and hands-on experience. I go beyond just feeding and checking in—I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and safe while their families are away. I grew up with cats! I also take pride in the less glamorous but important tasks, like cleaning litter boxes thoroughly, keeping feeding areas tidy, and ensuring everything is fresh and sanitary. I know those details matter to both pets and their people. Above all, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own, which means patience, playtime, and lots of affection are always part of the package.

“I was recommended to Hope by a good friend with a nice little pup. We have two cats - Hope came over for an hour to feed and play with my little girls while we were away. Would definitely recommend and will book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life my parents had dogs, chickens, lizards, everything you could think of so I’m really good with all types of animals Im currently in nursing school, my schedule is pretty open and available so I would be able to be attentive to your pets and give them the care they need. I have a pretty large yard that the animals can roam free, as well a dog door. Our little puppy is 15 years old so his walks are limited but we make sure he goes out when he’s feeling up to it.
“Jackie was perfect! Her communication, promptness, and attention to detail couldn't have been better. Our critters were in great hands and we really appreciated the way she took care of them. We'll definitely request Jackie's help again when we're out of town.”

“Jennifer was amazing! She was so kind and patient with our 4-month-old puppy, Caboose. She has a fully fenced yard and two adorable dogs who kept him entertained all day. Jennifer kept us updated throughout the day, which we loved. Our puppy had a few potty accidents, and she was incredibly understanding about it. We’re so grateful she cared for Caboose like he was her own. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Allison is awesome!! Our dog Roxy has a bit of separation anxiety when left home alone so we didn’t know how well she would do at a sitter. Thanks to Allison and her awesome dog skills Roxy did amazing and she can’t wait to go back for more play dates with her friends! Allison sent updates on how Roxy was doing and that was helpful. Now I have no worries at all of leaving Roxy with Allison.”

About: Hi my name is Sheldan! I’m a mom to 2 boys (5yr old & 3yr old) who have a lot of energy! I’m a stay at home mom so we are home all day every day. I’ve always grown up with animals, dogs, cats, chickens, and even a hedgehog. I’m a huge animal lover, if I could rescue every animal in the shelter, trust me I would! I was on Rover for a little bit back in the summer months of 2019 and 2020-2021 then life got a little busy so I took a break. Both my kids grew up around our German Shepherd who passed in early 2024. We love to be outside and take our daily walks or bike rides when it’s not too hot out! I’m energetic, have a bubbly and fun personality and super easy going, hopefully you’ll get to see that! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open and flexible! During the summer months we are very flexible and available. My home is currently baby proofed so we don’t have anything lying around that could be harmful to your pet. We do not have a fenced in yard.
“Rosalyn has been taking care of our 4 mos old puppy 4 days/week! He loves Rosalyn, her dog and kids so much that he does not want to leave when he is picked up! He literally cries in the car ride home. Thank you for taking such excellent care of our pup Rosalyn!”

We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected. Our fur babies were obviously very comfortable in their home because they are so calm in their crates in the car at the moment. We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”
“Araceli was so great with Rocky… she kept me posted on how he was doing and sent me the cutest video and pic of my lil guy… it is so great to be able to be at work and not have to worry about how Rocky is doing. I would highly recommend Araceli for watching your furry baby. Araceli thank you for putting my worries at ease…”
“I can tell that my dog enjoyed his day with Tanaisa and her dog Loki. He walked right into the gate when I dropped him off for his second day. He got plenty of walks and socialization. I will definitely book with her again, even though it’s a total of 40 minutes detour for me, it’s worth it because Tanaisa took great care of Dante.”
About: My family has always had dogs. I’ve taken care of big and small dogs. I know how to give dogs medication if that’s what they need. I’ve dealt with old dogs and puppies. I know how to deal with anxious dogs and have dealt with dogs who have epilepsy. I can come and play with your dog, go on walks, or cuddle with your dog. Whatever they prefer. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to check in on your furry friends. I know what it’s like to go on vacation and stress about leaving your pets behind. With me, they will have fun and you won’t have to worry about them being taken care of. I have a fully fenced yard, so your dog can run stress free. If pet sitting is at your house, I can use a leash or play in the yard if it is fenced. You let me know!

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and worked at a vet clinic for several years~ I can administer medications & perform CPR, which I recently renewed my certification in. Senior animals hold a particulary soft spot in my heart, and I'm always delighted to help out creatures with special needs (young or old). As a former professional housecleaner, I also have experience going into clients' homes and understand how to utilize your space to do my job, while also respecting your privacy & home. If pet care can be considered a hobby, it's definitely mine, which may explain why I have 4 dogs.. I ensure they live carefree, tail-wagging lives and I would love to spoil your pet(s) too! My schedule tends to be full, but manageable, as I try to help as many people in the community as one person can; often, I can spin a little bit of magic to make a request work. I firmly believe in flexibility for others as I appreciate it in return and this helps to keep my schedule accommodating. I believe dogs deserve the absolute best in life and as such, mine live a life of luxury with high quality meals, lots of playtime, and minimal rules. That being said, I respect that not everyone has the same rules and allowances for their pets~ regardless of mine, I promise to put yours first when caring for your creatures.
About: **please note I am located in Winlock, WA. Rover is working on updating my information** Hello, My name is Kim! I have been pet sitting on and off for 18 years, and I've had dogs/cats and trained dogs for over 14 years now. I'vw been a veterinary technician and emergency veterinary technician for over 12 years. I currently work part time at SCVSEC. I am fear free certified. I have extensive experience caring for dogs with special needs, medical needs, senior dogs, and dogs that are on hospice care. I also have 10+ years experience in training dogs, from competitive obedience and agility, to service dogs, to working with fear aggressive dogs. I particularly love puppy development and training. I use positive reinforcement and have experience in clicker training, but I can cater to any training needs. I do offer bathing/grooming in my home for those that stay with us. I have experience in grooming and competitive conformation. I am only available for day care and boarding at my house, and I would love to schedule a meet and greet to see if we're a good match. We have a fully fenced yard. Our home houses 3 very socialized dogs, 2 dog friendly cats, 9 chickens (they have their own yard), and a chinchilla. Requirements: your pet MUST be up to date on age appropriate vaccines (DHPP, Lepto, Rabies). I do strongly recommend Bordetella and Influenza as well, due to recent outbreaks. Your pet must be crate trained, as I do not leave pets loose when I leave the house for safety reasons. For puppies, I will gladly work on their crate training. Pets are supervised 24/7, I have 2 cameras in the pet area for when I have to leave the house. I love to cater to the individual, so please tell me about your pet so I can make sure they have the best and most enjoyable stay! **For all overnight house sitting requests, due to circumstances I need to bring my 1 dog with me. He is well socialized with dogs and a polite house guest. I have lived in a dog daycare/boarding situation, so I am very used to keeping dogs separate and I am more than happy to keep him separate and he would stay in a crate. If you have any questions about this or about him, please feel free to ask! Normally I wouldn’t bring my personal dog, but due to several reasons we are a package deal.** I am home almost 24/7, aside from an occasional appointment, so my day revolves solely around caring for any and all animals. I have a very flexible routine, so I can cater specifically to clients needs and time frames. I treat every pet like they are our own and give them endless attention (I might spoil them a bit). I pay a lot of attention to instructions and I’m not afraid to ask questions. Making sure your pet is happy and comfortable while you are gone and giving exceptional care is my priority.
About: I have my own dogs and I’ve watched my families dogs as well. I’d say I definitely have experience in taking care of them so it’s not a worry. Typically free weekdays & busy weekends. My days are usually pretty flexible. Can adjust schedule if need be, just message & we can work something out! (: I offer lots of play time and one on one time with your pets. I’ll keep them safe, fed, and most importantly have fun 💖
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care and attention I give to each dog. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel safe, happy, and loved—even when their owners are away. I treat every pet like family, making sure they get not only exercise and care, but also plenty of affection and companionship. My reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals mean pet parents can have complete peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring hands. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine—I start and end my day making sure animals are happy, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I schedule my day around their needs. On a weekly basis, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and consistency, so they feel comfortable and loved even when their owners are away. Caring for animals isn’t something I ‘fit in’—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. Outside of caring for pets, I also do hair! In a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I’d give my own. I follow their instructions closely, maintain their pet’s usual routines, and provide updates so owners feel reassured. My goal is always to create a loving, stress-free experience for pets, no matter where I’m caring for them.
About: I’ve been the family/neighborhood pet sitter since I was in middle school, and I’ve been doing it professionally for a few years now! I like to make sure all the pets I watch are always happy and healthy, and treat them as if they’re mine. I have experience with all sizes of dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, chickens, and a little experience with some other critters too! I do this full time as well so I’m typically available for bookings. I always leave my clients homes looking as clean (or more clean) as when I arrived, as I used to work as a housekeeper and enjoy cleaning! I always use environmentally friendly and pet safe cleaning products. Will put funny Snapchat filters on your pets or just take goofy pics of them in general to send you throughout the day :) cute pics too though! Pet sitting is my full time job, and I love doing it! I just like to make sure other people’s fur babies are happy and healthy while their owners are away I have two friendly dogs and a cat that we aren’t super strict with. They’re all pretty well behaved and won’t over eat (we do occasionally switch to measured feeding just to make sure they’re at really healthy weights) have accidents, or have any behavioral issues, and we allow them on all the furniture. I also have bunnies, which do have much stricter diets and overall care.
About: I have tons of experience caring for and working with many different breeds! I have a ten year old dog myself, healthy as a horse and full of life 😊 I understand dog care very well and truly enjoy being around them! I have recently moved to Washington from out of state, and my schedule is quite open right now! This gives me the flexibility to take on pet care responsibilities quickly and easily. At my home I have a large fenced yard (half an acre) and one sweet older dog that plays very well with others! If your dog requires time away from other dogs I can accommodate that as well, and keep them separate. When caring for your fur baby at your home I will follow whatever rules you have there for them, ie crating, walks, playtime in the yard, etc.
About: Every dog needs companionship. There are many different breeds of dogs, but they are all taken care of basically the same. I have my own dog named willow who is currently with my friend in California. I've been watching my family's friends dogs for the last 2 years now and I'm looking to work more and willing to do whatever your pet needs to be comfortable and and happy as can be. I promise to take care of your pets, whether its feeding them at the correct times that you normally would and take them on long walks or to the dog park to run around. Any dog is welcome I will never turn down a dog. I would love the chance to meet your dog and give them a nice place to go while your gone.
“Kristin is absolutely the best! Kristin was SO thorough in her care for our pup - lots of pictures and video during the walks. So above and beyond amazing to know my pets are in the BEST care possible when I am away from home. ❤️✨️”
About: I house and pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors throughout college. I grew up with small dogs (chihuahuas, dachshunds), indoor and outdoor cats, and fish. I’ve house sat both small and big dogs (golden retrievers, huskies, chihuahuas) and cats. I have experience in caring for senior dogs (ex. medication, helping them up and down stairs, etc). I also have experience in caring for anxious dogs. My schedule is flexible so I am able to care for pets that may need more attention than typical. I travel often so I don’t get to be with my own pets as often as I’d like so pet sitting gives me a way to still be around and connect with animals. I am very attentive and adaptable. Every animal is different and requires unique care depending on their personality. Some may need more attention while others are independent, I try to see this and meet each pet where they are comfortable. If I’m pet sitting in someone’s home I try to fit into their pets routine as much as possible, prioritizing the pets comfort. If there are any concerns at all, changes in behavior, etc I will contact the client asap.
About: I have had dogs my entire life! I love to play with them and walk them. If I was allowed I’d have at least two right now! I am an active person so there is not need to worry about your pets being stuck inside. I love to hike and go for runs. In my college town I would dog walk neighborhood dogs and take them running up hiking trails. I’m a clean person and make sure to leave no messes behind. I’ll even take care of any mess that your pet has left in the time you are gone. I work a full-time job from home so now worries about scheduling. I’m pretty open unless it’s a day where I’m out at clients. I hope you consider me!
About: I'm a very caring person and dogs can tell right away! I'm very patient and protective. I've been at my current job in the dental field for 10 years so I'm very reliable. I cannot own a dog at this point in my life since i do not have a yard. And that's why I'd be more than grateful to watch and take care of yours! Id like a chance to prove I'm a great person to have around your animals and home. I would mostly be available on the weekends or after work on the week days. Or if you live near by I can watch during the week on my lunch breaks and after work. You will not be disappointed in choosing me.i love animals! Especially doggies (=
About: I moved to the Pacific Northwest in 2022, and currently live with my sister and her sweet pup. While her dog is used to a one-dog household, I am happy to take your dog on walks, do drop ins, watch them for a full day, or pet sit at your home. I have loved dogs as long as I can remember. I began begging my parents for a dog at the age of 3, and was finally able to get one of my own when I was 15. I have been taking care of dogs ever since. Friends, family, and neighbors have had me pet sit, walk, feed, and take care of their pets over the years. I work from home full time, which gives me lots of flexibility to watch your dogs from the comfort of your home while you are out of town. I also am able to walk dogs before and after work, as well as play with them or take them out during breaks! I am happy to follow any schedule / pet care requests you may have! I love the outdoors and am happy to walk your dogs regularly, take then on hikes, or to a park depending on their preferences! If your dogs prefer to be indoors and just like snuggles and attention, I can provide that as welll! I am open to following the pattern your dog is used to / prefers. I would love to send you pictures and videos of your dog to keep you updated on the fun adventures we are having!

“Allison and her husband are so freaking AWESOME! Yenn had a blast with her and their two dogs. I received daily pictures and updates, and it's obvious these are people who love dogs. Yenn was thoroughly tired but happy upon her return. Allison is great with communication and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We are incredibly grateful for Araceli for watching our two pups! It’s our 2nd boarding experience with her - 1st for our 5-month old - and they were well taken care of. Def one of the best Rover experiences we’ve had”
“We were very happy with our puppies stay. We received many photos and videos updating us on how much fun the dogs were having. We were very pleased and will be booking with Mary again in the future! :)”
“Tony was great to work with! He had a great set up and was able to support the needs of our pup. I fully trusted him with our dog and will be preferring to work with him again in the future. During the time that our dog was with Tony, we were recieving cute pictures of the adventures that she went on.”
“Melissa is great with dogs! I could tell my dog trusted her right away and was wagging her tail as I left. Melissa kept me up to date and was really helpful in modifying the stay when my schedule changed. You can tell Melissa cares about dogs and makes sure they are well cared for.”

About: All my life I have had pets, dogs, cats, hamsters, and even a ferret named Simba. I have had two dogs from puppy to seniors and reaching the rainbow bridge. I have two labs now and some farm animals. My husband and I have raised two boys and he is retired and we are just wanting to do something on the side we love to stay busy. I work from home or anywhere so I can stay with your pets in the safety of their own home or they are welcome to stay with us on the farm as long as they get along with other dogs. I cannot board cats however due to my dogs lack of exposure. In your home I would keep them close to their usual routine and make sure all their needs are met and patiently comfort their anxiety over missing you. In my home we have over an acre of fenced area perfect for dogs to run and play. I again would accommodate their schedules and give lots of love and attention. We have baby gates that keep pets with us in living area. If they are used to sleeping with humans I am totally okay with that, whatever they prefer.
“Highly recommend. It was my first time using rover and we were hesitant on leaving our 4 month old basset with anyone, but he had a blast with her lab Marshall and we recieved picture updates daily. I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home with all the fun he was having.”
“Linda and Bob were able to care for our sweet pup on short notice. As mentioned before, dogs are kept in personal enclosure in separate garage/office. It is extremely clean and they take dogs out often to personal play yard. Our dog looked happy and was clearly enjoying himself in every picture we received. We will definitely use Linda and Bob again!”
“Jenny and her family were so great in taking on our rambunctious, 2 year old, Corgi and our elderly, gentle giant, Great Dane. We received updates every step of the way and both dogs immediately made themselves right at home. Will definitely use Jenny again!!”
“Our Shepherd mix was right at home with Hailey and her family. He got 24/7 care, family love and attention. Hailey was easy to communicate with and worked with our special food mix that needed to be refrigerated. Great property to roam in the yard and lots of area to run and play. We will definitely bring our dog back.”
“Claire and Jason are awesome! They are great at communicating, and send pictures often! They played with Denver and took him on walks and hikes and made sure to give him lots of cuddles. They also have children who gave him so much attention. Would highly recommend to anyone!”
“I was so happy to get updates and photos every day! It made me feel like she was in good hands, and I liked the reminder she was doing well. It sounds like my cat had a great time and was entertained during her stay. Thank you!”
“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”
“Thank you, Todd, for taking such good care of our girl! The updates were very much appreciated. The pictures were nice clear pictures of Noel and you took care to take heed of every detail of her needs while she was with you. We will definitely look you up again if we ever need another dog sitter!”
“Christie was so great with our dog and older kitty. She was very communicative and sent lots of picture updates! She was gentle and patient with our bully/pitbull mix who can be a bit nervous at first, and her sweet doggie Ruffalo made for a great companion. I had total peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely book again!:)”
“Tanaisa was an amazing host for my dog DK! She watched him for a week and I honestly think he was sad to leave her. Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be asking if she can watch my dog again in the future!”
