“Kris was AMAZING. She was so flexible, so knowledgeable and caring, and I could tell that she took the best care of Cookie! Cookie came home happily exhausted from playing at her home, and we will absolutely book a stay with Kris next time we’re in the area!!”

“We highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter! She took care of our dog, Mr. Beckett while we were out of town. Not only did she provide excellent care for Mr. Beckett, but she also went above and beyond to ensure he felt loved and comfortable while we were away. We enjoyed the daily texts and pictures showing us he was safe and having a great time. Our nervousness about leaving Mr. Beckett for the first time was greatly reduced after we saw how well he was doing with her. Lisa would take him and her dog Ollie on daily adventures at the local parks. He enjoyed playing with Ollie and seemed very happy there. We will gladly use Lisa’s services in the future, she is trustworthy, loving and very in tune to our dog’s needs.”

“Chelsea was very helpful on short notice. She was able to accommodate a schedule change and took excellent care of our dog, Scout. We highly recommend booking with Chelsea.”

“Lenore and her doggie were both absolutely amazing to our boy. Every day Lenore sent us pictures and videos which put us at ease and made us smile. Our boy had an amazing time and was well taken care of. We will definitely be booking again in the near future.”

“Jennifer took great care of our family member Blue. (As with some human family members, our canine family member can be a handful.). Jennifer worked with our requests and Blue’s nuances/personality. Couldn’t be more pleased that we found Jennifer and were fortunate to have Blue hang out in a great environment, with customized attention. Five stars.”

“Sophia C. took great care of our doodle pup, Earl. Really appreciate her care during some hot weather. Sophia sent pictures of some of the outings, which we loved. Good communication on drop off and pick up too”

“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Just picked up our girls from Leslie and they were very happy -did zoomies at the farm and at home. 😂 Leslie was very friendly and it’s obvious she’s made her life all about dogs. Her property is a fantastic spot for dogs to interact, run and exercise. Thanks so much.”

“Great experience! Dolly was quick to respond to our texts and sent pictures while we were away which was so nice. One of our dogs is special needs and Dolly took excellent care of her. Will definitely book with Dolly again!”

“Susan did a great job taking care of Pocket, and ensuring her needs were met. Her communication was great, and she sent me a few pictures and updates even though Pocket only stayed for one night.”

About: I grew up on a small organic farm, where we raised everything from sheep and goats to rabbits and quail. We also had 5 cats and a dog, so caring for animals was a part of my everyday life from a young age. That experience has given me the confidence to care for pets with different personalities and needs. As I got older, my love for animals stayed with me. Whether your pet loves long walks, play time or wants someone to keep them company i’ll make sure they feel safe and well cared for. I recently graduated college at WWU and I am currently working part time, so I can easily fit around your schedule and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I work Tuesday and Thursday and I am off in the afternoon. I live close to a few parks that are dog friendly and make a great walk. Inside, pets are free to roam throughout the house.
“Minerva was absolutely amazing with our dog, Pablo! From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, kind, and compassionate she is. She treated Pablo like he was her own, making sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Knowing Pablo was in such loving and capable hands gave us complete peace of mind. Minerva went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. We are incredibly grateful for the care and attention she gave Pablo. Thank you so much, Minerva!”


“My dog loved his stay with Adrienne. Max daily enjoyed the fenced back yard, hanging with her family during the day, and all the walks and smells in her neighborhood. He felt safe and loved. I would highly recommend Adrienne!”

“Wei was great with our dog who usually takes a while to warm up and shows anxiety with strangers. She was very comforting and understanding. We really greatly appreciated all the photos and updates she sent. It felt like we left our dog with a trusted friend even though we just met her. There were no doubts that our dog was well taken care of.”

“Amazing care as usual!!! I feel so comfortable leaving my pup with Michelle. I know she will be well taken care of and have the best time! She always gets so excited when she gets dropped off for a visit.”

“Rachael was awesome. Super communicative for the whole stay and really reassured us that our senior dog is well taken care of. Rachael sent us lots of photos and updates, and was always available to be reached out to. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook her again and recommend Rachael to anyone who’s looking for a great sitter!”

“Shari and Richard took great care of our little Timber for the weekend for us while our son got married. He came home so happy. They are a great couple who clearly love dogs.”

“Chandra is superb. She is very responsible, easy to communicate with, and incredibly reliable. Even when the winter weather is terrible, I know she’ll show up to care for my fur baby, which means a ton.”

“Emily is a wonderful pet sitter! I’m so relieved to know I have someone to watch my cat when I’m out of town, and my standards are very high! Great communication, followed my directions to a T, and kept things tidy even though I didn’t ask. She got some great pictures of my normally shy kitty, too. I recommend Emily for cat sitting.”


“Mindi was great with my cats! She was very responsive and a good communicator and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in her excellent care, even my special needs kitty. I would absolutely use her services again.”


“Azure is absolutely amazing. Our kitties love her, and we feel safe with her caring for them while we are gone. Her updates, pictures, and all recommendations are excellent. We plan to hire her always in the future.”


“It was wonderful working with you and I hope to work with you again in the future! I appreciated your flexibility and little notes you left after your visits! The photos you sent eased my worries about leaving my boy home! Thank you so much!”


“I am so thankful to have found Bodhi! Knowing my pets are well cared for made it so I could enjoy my trip without worrying about a thing. While away, my smoke detector low- battery sensor started to go off (it’s really loud and beeps every minute) Bodhi saved the day by replacing the batteries and resetting the detectors. Bodhi is incredible and gained my cats trust very quickly, AND went above and beyond making sure they are well taken care of and the house and their spaces are as well. Thank you so much, Bodhi!!”


About: I did not grow up with cats as my parents were allergic, but that didn't stop me from begging for a kitten. My experience with cats has primarily been petsitting for my sister's cat with medical needs, and I'm pleased to report that she warmed up to me quickly.

“Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.”

“Madalyn was great with our cat while we were gone on a trip for two weeks, it seemed our cat really bonded with her and was well taken care of :) definitely recommend!!!”
“Responsive and accommodating to scheduling time slots for drop ins and itinerary of what to do while visiting. Jack seemed very relaxed and happy when we returned having gotten lots of great care and attention while we were gone.”

“Lizz took great care of our grumpy cat, Sam. She reliably showed up each day. We are very happy with how Lizz interacted with our cat and will definitely use Lizz in the future. An overall great experience.”


“Judith was an amazing sitter for my kitties. They’re skittish and don’t always warm up to strangers, but they immediately liked Judith. Thank you for taking good care of the cats and my home and the regular status updates! 10/10 will use her services again.”

“Darien made the extra effort to make sure we were comfortable with her before our first booking and was very sweet with our cat. I will definitely use her again!”


“Mika came over and spent an hour with the dogs in the middle of the day and it was such a big help! She plays with them, took them on a walk and I feel completely comfortable with them in her care.”

“Garfunkel had a blast meeting Jennifer and spending her days playing with her and the other pups outside! Garfunkel is typically quite anxious, but Jennifer quickly put her at ease.”

“Mika and Koji were great with Wicket. We received plenty of pics throughout the day and he looked happy (and pampered). While we were in Vancouver BC our car broke down and had to pick up our dog about 90 minutes late. Mika and Koji were very understanding and reassuring.”

“Sophia was wonderful! She sent so many pictures of Fynn having a great time playing with her pups, playing in the backyard and cuddling during nap time. Sophia was able to meet all of Fynns needs and we felt comfortable leaving him in her care! Would definitely call on her again! Fynn came home happy and tired after a fun day at her house!”

“Yvonne was amazing with my girl and she was very kind with communication as well as sending pictures. We felt very lucky to have her as our sitter on such short notice today. Definitely will be coming back”

“Morgan was simply the best! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring, communicative and flexible first Rover sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable having Henry stay with her and her adorable dog Baby. She sent frequent pictures of their activities and ensured Henry got exercise, rest, healthy snacks and attention. We were only visiting Bellingham but wish she lived in our town - we would have her hang with Henry all the time! Cannot recommend enough. Thank you Morgan!”


“Holly and her family took such great care of our dog, Dottie. I couldn't be happier with the process - from the first message to the meet & greet to the doggy day care date. Communication was clear and easy, and I felt that safety and care were well prioritized. Having that reassurance that your dog is in good hands is honestly priceless. The fact she had a great time with Archie is the cherry on top. Dottie is already passed out sleeping (on the couch - sorry!) from all the fun she had. Will definitely book again. Also thank you for all the photos during the visit! They were very comforting for this anxious dog mom.”

“My dog had a wonderful time with Addison! He was friendly and communicative during pickup, drop off, and during care. When I picked up I could tell Puck had a wonderful time and Addison shared fun stories about his day. I'm planning to use him as a regular sitter for my pup!”

“Lauren took wonderful care of our boys while we went to Vancouver for the day to ride bikes. It was great peace of mind to know they were safe, having fun, and were well taken care of while we were off doing our thing for the day. When we picked them up we could tell that they were happy and satisfied from a great day. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone in the area, or traveling through. If and when we come back, we’ll definitely bring our dogs to her again.”

“Tami makes every dog in her care feel like a loved family member! She has a huge heart for all types of dogs and easily many different personalities playing happily and in harmony together. I'm so thrilled Fiona and I found her. ?♥️?”

“I had a fantastic experience with Alex as Rune’s dog sitter. Rune had a great time playing with her dogs, and she has a lovely space that’s perfect for hosting. Alex was extremely responsive, communicative, and took great photos throughout. Overall, I felt very reassured and happy having Rune stay with her.”

About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds my whole life, including my (now passed) 17-year-old dog and my current puppy, Maggie. I understand the needs of both energetic youngsters and gentle seniors, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine - I’m used to feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on pets throughout the day. Whether it’s scheduled visits or regular walks, I’m already in the rhythm of caring for pets consistently and reliably. I have a large fenced yard and am happy to make any accommodations for your pet that are needed (crating, leash training, administering medication, etc.)
“Leslie is awesome to work with. We started with a meet and greet and then Toast stayed with her for daycare. She was very communicative, and was wonderful with Toast. Sometimes he can get really excited and stressed with too much time with other dogs, but when I picked him up he was relaxed and happy. We'll totally book with her again.”


“Alexis and Amy have a great thing going. My partner and I are typically weary about leaving our high energy dog with strangers but couldn't have been happier that we chose Alexis' daycare. Everything from communication to drop-off/pick-up was super smooth. Our dog Sprocket thrives on social interaction with both humans and dogs and was happily exhausted at the end of the day when we picked him up. All the other dogs at daycare seem very well adjusted and friendly as well which was a relief for us. Would definitely recommend them and we will certainly be using them again! Thank you!”

“Leslie took great care of my Nikki. She has never been at daycare and loved it very much especially the homecooked meal that Leslie prepares for her dogs. What a great place . I will bring Nikki back to Leslie anytime and highly recommend her.”

I will do everything to make sure your dog feels at home during their stay and gets all the love and exercise they desire. I work from home with flexible hours.

My daily routine includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering basic medications when needed, and providing plenty of love and attention.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I love spending time with them. I now have more time on my hands and would love to spend it caring for dogs who need some TLC. I had a senior pug who sadly rent over the rainbow bridge last year. The last few years she was with me, I had to give her medication, take care of her eyes and give her a special diet. I also had a lab who developed cancer and needed medication and a special diet. I feel I would be a perfect person to care for special needs dogs. I am retired so I have time to care for your pet from my home with frequent walks and/or bathroom breaks around our 5 acre property. I live on 5 acres. I do not have a fenced yard but take multiple walks throughout the day so your dog would be safely walked on a leash.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I trained two labrador puppies for my family and took care of my sick senior supermutt for months until he passed. Volunteering at dog rescue lounges every week has incresed my skills of understanding dog behavior, controlling reactive pups, giving medication, bathing, walking, and overall canine knowledge. I am an online college student so all hours of my week are centered around pet care needs! I have all the time in the world to look after animals. I live in a fenced in apartment with plenty of grassy space for pups to explore. There are no pets in my home, so your animal will be the sole attention for my care.

“Chandra was amazing! She was super kind and communicative. My pup got into some food he shouldn’t have before one of her walks, and she took care to make sure he was okay, gave him a bath, and made sure everything was okay in the house. She took extra care to make sure my dog was loved when I wasn’t home.”

“We were very impressed with Emily's excellent communication. Shackleton had a wonderful time with her and she was fanatic at managing a large and opinionated doggo! We highly recommend Emily for dog walking and will definitely request her in the future when we need a walker.”


About: I'm the go-to sitter for friends and family's dogs and I absolutely LOVE being a part of a dog's routine. I have experience with all facets of dog care from administratoring medicine to coming up with games for exercising your dog's body and brain. I also have experience with all ages from rambunctious babies to mellow seniors. I currently have three high-energy large dogs and the importance of good walks and brain games is baked into my very being. I'm currently attending classes and working part time during the week. I am available at various times on weekdays for drop in visits and dog walking, and anytime on weekends or holidays. I double check everything. I make sure your pet's behavior is normal, that your pet has eaten and drank, that your pet has peed and pooped normally, that your instructions were closely followed, and that your home is secure. Most importantly, that your pet is SAFE.
“Audrey looks out for the details when caring for our dogs. Amid freezing weather, we forgot to leave out the dog’s winter jackets, but she knew where they were in the garage and added them for the walk.”

About: I have provided care for dogs and cats for over 20+ years. I was the first to volunteer in my youth to "stay home" with the animals. I am thoughtful and reliable and understand the importance of a maintained routine. I approach all visits with patience, care, and professionalism. I communicate clearly with pet parents and adjust my care to match each fur baby's personality. Trust and confidentiality are my priorities. Flexible schedule! I am currently between employment commitments while I assist family members with life changes. I am organized and reliable and can accommodate regular visits as well as short-notice needs.

About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else's care. I've personally raised and cared for animals since I was a kid. These pets have included cockatiels, lizards, dogs and cats of all ages. This experience gives me knowledge in order to provide age-specific care, whether that means longer walk/ play time or gentle attention and medication support for seniors. I am flexible with my schedule due to a work from home schedule. This means more time to play and care for your pups! I am availability typically Monday- Thursday but will update my Rover calendar as frequently as possible to reflect an accurate schedule. I like to send a lot of photos and videos in order to keep you updated and feel at ease (Unless you ask me not to!) One thing that really helps things go smoothly is a detailed schedule & notes (written or typed) for your pet if they have any. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to keep your pup safe and happy.
“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”

“I am SO grateful to Samantha! She was an awesome communicator and drove a good distance to give my dog some love and extra walking time! She was really wonderful to work with and timely ! I really recommend her and would have her hangout with my silly golden again! thanks so much Sam!”

About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me over the years to help care for their fur babies, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or simply helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m calm, dependable, highly detail-oriented, and understand how important routines and communication are when it comes to pet care. I’m especially comfortable with cats and small to medium-sized dogs, and I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, or just so you can see their sweet little face. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone truly trustworthy, attentive, and kind to care for your furry family members. As a high school teacher, my schedule is very routine-oriented, which makes me dependable and organized when caring for pets. During the school year, I’m generally available evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks, with more flexible availability during the summer months. I do my best to work with each pet’s established routine so they can feel comfortable, safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, attentive, and respectful to care for your fur babies and your home. I approach each pet based on their individual personality, comfort level, and routine, whether they’re highly social and energetic or more shy and independent. I’m highly detail-oriented, dependable, and always respectful of feeding schedules, medication instructions, boundaries, and household expectations. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, while still getting a glimpse of their sweet little face.
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 8 and all my dogs have shown great love towards me because I give them the full love back. I am known in the family as the family caretaker when our dogs get old and need special attention. The reason I take care of my dogs when they get older because I have the patience, attentions, and most of all, love in supporting them through their elderly stage. All pets deserve the best and I am more than happy to provide that! I am currently taking the year off from work to travel the world but in between my trips I have a lot of free time and feel it can be better spent taking care of pets while other people can enjoy trips or another activity that requires them to leave their pet at home. I have a 5-year old Havanese and I take him on walks daily, I make sure he is bathe at least once a month, and try to take him on as many trips so I can, so he can enjoy the world as much I as I do.

“Judith was the best ever for my pup. She was always on time showed him so much love and was very communicative about availability well ahead of time knowing we had a regular schedule. I’m greatfull for her and her love of animals. You can trust her with your fur babies anytime!”

About: I have a passion for rescue and believe pets deserve all the second and third chances! I grew up with cats and as soon as I moved out, I adopted a rescue cat who was destined to be an only child in her forever home. Now with 3 rescue cats and one young rescue lab with a past, our home is at full capacity, but I love meeting new furry characters through pet sitting. I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family for nearly 2 decades. Recently we were in a bind to find someone in our circle to care for our rowdy pup, so we turned to the Rover community and immediately found a fantastic local dog walker. I love that Rover provides a place for pet parents to connect and I’m now in the local network of pet sitters as well! I believe every dog is an individual and should be respected as such. Every challenging behavior simply reflects a need. I know how tough it can be to find a good match for a rescue pup with a past, and I’d love to provide help as a sitter/walker who is comfortable navigating challenging behaviors! I love a cat who hisses at strangers, and I love a pup who has enough wild energy to power a small city. My current work situation is a bit slow so I’m working part time with a somewhat inconsistent schedule. Usually I have the most availability to help with pet care in the afternoon and evening. Thursday-Sunday are usually very flexible. Feel free to reach out and let me know what your needs are! I have a small 3bd home with a small fenced in yard. I live in a densely populated neighborhood with many dogs, and with a highly reactive pup I am very safety conscious and accustomed to providing vigilant supervision both when my dog goes out on his own to potty or while on walks.

About: *AVAILIBILTY/WORK SCHEDULE: M, W, F 10 hour shifts and THR 5 hour shifts.* I grew up with four cats, a wolf-hybrid (yes, really), rats, lizards and hermit crabs. I now have three cats and have cared for hedgehogs for 6 years. I have an enormous affinity for all living things and adore spending time with them. I love them all equally! I work in health care Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 7am-6pm. I am off on Thursdays and I work from 6am-4pm on Fridays. I am more than happy to work with cats, dogs and exotic animals. Beyond caring for your pets based solely on your instructions, I believe pets always deserve loving attention and a clean environment. This means water and food bowls will always be freshened as well as the litter box if cats are being cared for. This applies even for quick drop-in visits. I am happy to care for the animals and be on my way if that is what is asked of me but I like to stay for at least a few minutes to ensure the animals receive pets and play if their human companion is okay with this.

I always make sure pups are tuckered out before leaving them, from experience I know it’s so important to go for walks and have playtime before they are left alone

“Leslie provided an excellent boarding experience for our Frenchie, Kahi. My husband and I are always nervous to leave Kahi, but this time we felt more at ease knowing she was in great hands with Leslie. Leslie welcomed Kahi into her home and was knowledgable of what Kahi needed to feel safe and comfortable. She was diligent to provide daily updates and pictures. The pictures showed that Kahi was well-adjusted to Leslie’s home and having a great time playing and bonding with Leslie’s pups. We trusted Kahi was safe with Leslie which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Great experience! Dolly was quick to respond to our texts and sent pictures while we were away which was so nice. One of our dogs is special needs and Dolly took excellent care of her. Will definitely book with Dolly again!”

About: I grew up on a small organic farm, where we raised everything from sheep and goats to rabbits and quail. We also had 5 cats and a dog, so caring for animals was a part of my everyday life from a young age. That experience has given me the confidence to care for pets with different personalities and needs. As I got older, my love for animals stayed with me. Whether your pet loves long walks, play time or wants someone to keep them company i’ll make sure they feel safe and well cared for. I recently graduated college at WWU and I am currently working part time, so I can easily fit around your schedule and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I work Tuesday and Thursday and I am off in the afternoon. I live close to a few parks that are dog friendly and make a great walk. Inside, pets are free to roam throughout the house.

“My dog loved his stay with Adrienne. Max daily enjoyed the fenced back yard, hanging with her family during the day, and all the walks and smells in her neighborhood. He felt safe and loved. I would highly recommend Adrienne!”

“Amazing care as usual!!! I feel so comfortable leaving my pup with Michelle. I know she will be well taken care of and have the best time! She always gets so excited when she gets dropped off for a visit.”

“Rachael was awesome. Super communicative for the whole stay and really reassured us that our senior dog is well taken care of. Rachael sent us lots of photos and updates, and was always available to be reached out to. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook her again and recommend Rachael to anyone who’s looking for a great sitter!”


“Holly was amazing with our Dozer, a bernedoodle. We got many pictures while on our overnight trip. Dozer is a cuddler and she provided lots of cuddle time. I would highly recommend Holly. I especially appreciated her safely fenced back yard. Looking forward to Dozer spending time with Holly again.”

About: Over the years I have dog sat, walked dogs for people with dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes. I have always taken pride in my care for my dogs and of course others as well. I currently don’t have a dog of my own as I am new to Bellingham, but I have a lot of experience with senior dogs as my first dog a 100lb malamute lived to be 16. I love big dogs, high energy dogs, small dogs. I am confident in my ability to handle all breeds energy and size! I work 4/ 10’s Monday through Thursday. Looking to fill my 3 day weekends with dog care! I will be available for dog sitting and dog walking every week Friday through Sunday. I like to get outside and walk and be active with my free time I live in a pet friendly condo with a large grassed dog friendly area and walking path behind the property. We have a fenced in balcony porch that the dog would have access to. Dogs would be allowed on furniture and bed. Care in clients home as well as mine will be followed as instructed to the T of owners request! Following precise owner instructions is vital when caring for others dogs.
“Daniel & Manuela were absolutely amazing! We were so lucky to find them and Hank loved spending time with their family while we were away. I especially loved getting the fun update photos and check ins while we were away. Dropoff and pick up were super smooth and we cant wait to book again when we go out of town.”

“Li was amazing with Bluey! He has such a caring and knowledgeable approach to all dogs. He did training with Bluey and played with all the dogs staying over. He sent lots of photos and videos. Highly recommend!”

“Deborah and Mark are such kind people and took great care of our dogs while we were away for an extended period. They treated the dogs like members of their family, and took them on daily outings. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our dogs were in their care. We will use them again in a heartbeat.”

“Great second stay. We'll keep using Cade as needed. Liva is a happy girl there and well cared for. I feel at ease and unworried while we're gone. Cade is easy to communicate with and keeps us updated with messages and pictures. Thank you!”

“Kendra was thoroughly communicative and kept our dog, Bromley, very happy on walks and adventures during her week-long stay. We had a great experience and would gladly choose Kendra again!”

“Laura was communicative and reliable in preparation and during our pup’s care. Felt she went above and beyond to ensure our dog was happy and well cared for, from pickup/drop off offerings to navigating our holiday travel/availability. Would recommend her!”

“Bella stayed with Heather second time now. I can really tell that Bella enjoys her stay - second time she has recognized Heather and was so happy to see her dog as well!”
