“Teri was awesome with Louie. Attentive and caring for our lil guy, his quirks and routines. She sent us daily photos and updates which our son loved (and asked for). She absolutely helped ease our minds leaving our pet with someone else and wouldn't hesitate using her services in the future.”
“Our pup, Olive, had a great time! Lots of great photos. We felt confident leaving our girl with Suzanne and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“From the start, Kathy treated our little pom like her own and sent us lots of updates and pics. Being the only pup in her care allowed our Leila to settle in quickly with little or no anxiety which was important to us. We explained Leila has health issues and would need meds at specific times. This Kathy took in stride having had past dealings with pet illnesses. Still, she listened and asked questions about what issues Leila was experiencing, the meds she needed and when/how to administer. We left for our trip knowing our pup would receive outstanding care. We're almost certain Leila was not ready to come home with us from her vacation. She was treated like a princess!!! Kathy is absolutely amazing. My husband and I highly recommend her.”
“My dogs mean everything to me and it can be difficult to find a dog sitter who understands the assignment. Allison understood the assignment. My girls are 10 years apart in age are different in temperament and personality. To me, it doesn’t take a lot to care for them but I never know if that is different in the eyes of the sitter. Allison welcomed them both into her home and cared for them just as I would. She provided updates and photos throughout the stay. She was also flexible in drop off time as I had a brain fart when initially booking the stay. I will definitely choose Allison again for future stays!”
“Peaches absolutely loved her time with Kelsey and her family! Kelsey was a fantastic communicator and kept me updated with pictures and videos of Peaches’ adventures with her girls. Thank you so much for welcoming her into your home!”
“Natalie is wonderful! As soon as we got there she made me and my girl comfortable. My dog is very perceptive with people and animals. If she isn’t comfortable she won’t go near them. Immediately my dog was wagging her tail and happy to be there. Likewise, when we picked her up she was happy. While greeting us she kept going back to Natalie as well. I will definitely want my girl to stay with Natalie again. What a relief to find a loving compassionate caring home for my girl when we need one”
“It mean so much knowing our dog is somewhere where he is loved and taken care of. Sherri takes care of our dog as well as we would and her communication is awesome. Lots of pictures and stories!”
“This was a great lil vacation for our doggo. Susan and David were kind, knowledgeable, flexible, and supportive throughout the entire process. They provided daily updates and pictures and kept us apprised of everything that happened throughout the day. I will absolutely be booking with them again.”
“April ‘s facility was very clean and secure. She sent us updated pictures and videos which we appreciated, and enlightened us on some dog training tips. Thank you for taking good care of our Kodiak.”
“Jenny was amazing with our Ellie! She sent me photos and messages about how Ellie was doing and what they did every day. I felt completely confident that Ellie was being well cared for while we were out of town. Jenny was always quick to reply to messages and a very kind hearted person. I will definitely request Jenny again and recommend her to all of our friends and family.”
“I left my dog with John for 10 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he provided. John kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear he truly cares about the dogs he looks after. I’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Nova had a wonderful weekend with Morgan! She always takes Nova on fun walks and hikes, and sends pictures of Nova having a blast. We will always reach out to Morgan first for Nova.”
“Our pup had a great time! Marlene is very gentle with dogs. I would definitely recommend her for a shy or timid dog. She also has a Great outdoor space!!”
“Riitta and Rudy provided exceptional care for our dog, ensuring he felt completely at home. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed his time with their dogs and even acquired new skills from them. They treated our dog as their own, providing daily updates with numerous photos and videos. Their consideration for our dog's individual behavior was particularly reassuring and demonstrated a high level of attentiveness. We would definitely utilize their services again when needed.”
“Gracie and I knew almost immediately that Marshel would be the right place for Gracie to stay while I went on vacation. I this was our first time with Rover. Marshel sent photos daily and eased my anxiety about being away from my girl. I highly recommend Marshel.”
“Nova had a fantastic time at Sukanya's place. The communication was top-notch from the very beginning, with regular updates, pictures, and videos that kept us informed about Nova's stay. We had a great meet and greet, and Sukanya's home was clean and had a lovely backyard. Nova got along wonderfully with their dog, and we'd definitely seek their help again whenever we're away. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience.”
“Rebecca is absolutely fantastic! She is reliable, organized, competent, a dog whisperer, and gives our pup lots of love and walks. She provides videos and email updates. Would highly recommend.”
“Ashley and her family provided excellent care for our golden retriever Conner. Received photos daily of him playing and looking so happy!! We felt reassured that he was very comfortable and enjoying his new environment while we were on vacation.”
“Michelle was very communicative and kept us well assured that our fur-son was in good hands. We will absolutely be hiring her again for all of our out-of-town dog sitting needs. She walked our dog daily, treated him like a part of her family, and was so flexible with our pick up time changes. Thank you Michelle!”

“Really good at taking care of my cats while I was away. Normally the cats hide with strangers but they didn't when she was there. Also she communicated a lot with me which is very important both in setting up my days on this tool and just keeping me informed.”
“Jeffrey was super communicative, professional and thorough. His update pics are of great quality. I would recommend him to anybody seeking top-tier care for their fur babies.”

“Jenna did a great job with our 2 pups for the week. She communicates well and understood what we needed for our dogs. Very punctual and she made sure they got the love they needed. Would book again. Thank you!”
“Anna was such a fantastic cat sitter. I have a very nervous cat and was unsure it they could bond as it was a short few days. She used the cat glove and got his trust.. and was then able to not only feed him but give him his twice daily meds.👍 She was very patient getting him to trust her. I appreciated that her experience paid off as she was very calm when he threw up food. Anna was on top of all the instructions and sent photos. Every cat owner doesn’t want to worry about their cats while they are away. I did not worry. Will be using Anna again very soon.. was very happy with her service and care for my 3 kitties especially my anxious senior cat… she has a special love for these senior cats 🐈⬛ Anna was amazing!!! Definitely using her services again.👍”
“Hilary was great. She had great communication and was reliable. She didbdrop in visits while we were out of town. Everything was down the way I asked and I didnt have to worry about a thing. We will be using her again for sure.”
“We’ve booked kim multiple times over the past 8 months or so and she is always dependable and reliable! She allows us to have peace of mind about our two kitties while we go on vacation. Our shy kitty even comes out for her on the first visit now! I definitely plan to book with Kim again in the future :)”
“Austin was great! He always sent us the best photos of our cats and communicated well about how they were doing. Our cats were happy to have him around each day! :)”

“Crystal provides a safe and happy place for my dogs. Obi and Haiku return tired and contented. They've had a fun day or afternoon playing with Crystal's dogs. Definitely recommend.”
“DeeAnna is absolutely amazing with my two pups! From the moment we met, I could tell ahead she genuinely cared and had a great energy with my dogs. She sends regular updates, photos, and always makes sure both pups are happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they are in loving, responsible hands. My dogs come home relaxed and clearly well-loved — always the best sign! I’m so grateful for the extra care and attention DeeAnna gives them. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and communicative. We’ll definitely be booking again! 🐶💗”
“Stella had a great time playing with the other dogs there in the large fenced yard. Janelle and Travis were very nice and were able to help us on short notice. We will keep them on our short list for dog sitting needs.”
“Yvonne has been great with Gideon. I always see her making Gideon feel welcome. Gideon is fitting in well and its because Yvonne has a very good demeanor with him, and all the dogs she cares for. Yvonne definitely has a passion and skill with the canines she cares for. Kudos and a shout out for her great service.”
“Ashley and her husband were awesome. My other Rover had cancelled on me and she accepted a very last minute request. She was responsive and sent updates throughout the day. Would totally book again in the future!”
“Kathy and her family took great care of our little dog with a big personality! Major Tom is a rescue who generally has a lot of separation anxiety, but he was happy and relaxed in Kathy's home. My husband and I are SO relieved to find this family so we can enjoy our time away without being preoccupied worrying about our little buddy.”
About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs and cats from pugs, to raising my 4 year old English cream golden retriever from 2 months to now, to a Bernese mountain dog! Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when I am away and I’m all for it! Let me know how I can best serve you and your furry family members! I’m currently attending Yale’s PA program. Most days vary depending on the schedule but I am available for potty breaks. During the evening I will be home and available. Weekends I love to spend outside and would be more than happy to take your pet along! Message me with questions! I have quite a bit of skill with a range of dogs and have learned quite a bit with my golden from puppy age to now (who is rambunctious as you can imagine!) I care for other peoples pets as I would my own.
About: Growing up, my dad was allergic to anything with fur. Therefore, I had lizards, fish, birds and every stuffed animal under the sun. I always jumped at the opportunity to spend time with neighbor pets and would beg to give the dogs a bath (my neighbors loved me lol). At the age of 10 I got my first horse (who I still have, 16 years later) and at the age of 14 I got my first dog. He was a Catahoula named Kyser, and he was anything but easy! I lived out of state for 2 years, and during that time I worked at a veterinary clinic and did pet sitting for clients. I miss it! I work M-F 8am-4pm, so I am only available weekends for boarding (potential for weekdays depending on the dog/situation). I am available after work for drop ins or walks! I have a fenced yard with a large male dog named Ozzy. He loves little dogs and female large dogs. He is a bit standoffish with other large males so I am unable to watch them. I would rather play it safe. I would NEVER leave the dogs together unattended. Ozzy is crate trained and has his own room so stepping out of the house would not be an issue.
“Marlene provided great care for my two older dogs over the span of several weeks. This is the first time I have ever had someone other than a family or close friend watch our dogs and I felt completely comfortable and at ease with Marlene. The only reason we are pausing care for now is because of a work schedule change and plan to go back to Marlene in the future for any dog care needs!”
“Krysten is the best! We feel so safe leaving our Lucy with her. Krysten is very prompt, extremely responsive, and very friendly. We've used her to walk and board Lucy over the last few months and have no complaints.”
“Having Jiahna care for Gideon has been a real pleasure. She was very helpful and flexible as we did a meet and greet and evaluated if Gideon would be a good fit. She took time to ask really good questions about Gideon and learn all she could so it's the better care for Gideon. From the get-go, Gideon loved being at her house and sharing time with her puppy. It was a good fit. I always knew that Jiahna had Gideon's best in mind, and I always got good reports at the end of the day. So very glad that I got to meet and have Gideon stay with Jiahna. I highly recommend her as a safe and professional Rover person for your canine needs. Gideon will miss her for sure and I have really appreciated the care and great connection that she showed in caring for Gideon. 💜🐕”
About: I am from a family of dog lovers and dog rescuers! I have grown up with mostly big doggies, but have often times taken care of my friends'/neighbors' little pups too. There isn't a day, where I won't stop and just chit chat with a pup, that merely walks by me! I also owned a pet-sitting and house-sitting business, for 23 years, so I have helped care for some doggies, their entire lives. I love them all so much! I'm currently unemployed, but have a company that I can run from anywhere. I have great flexibility and time to play with your fur babe!
“Goose had a GREAT time with Elena and Klemheist. He came home a happy and sleepy puppy. Elena helped me out last minute after my previous sitter had to cancel and I could not be more thankful. I’ll definitely be using Elena next time I need doggy daycare or boarding for Goose.”

I have a 7 year old daughter who also loves animals and is very aware of their space. I live on 2-1/3 acres tucked away on a small private road. My Property does not have a fence however anytime the dogs are out I am supervising. I have a very large outdoor kennel as well. It’s an absolute dream for dogs who love to run around and play! I have an 8 year old mini Australian Shepherd who is full of energy so he can play all day with the super energetics dogs. Or they can have separate space if need be as well. I also have an entire living room dedicated to dogs where there are gates to keep them in. Comfy Chairs, couch and dog beds for them to lay on. For boarding We have dog crates that we can put in the living room or in a separate room if need be.

“Austin was a huge help to me this past summer. I broke my ankle and needed help with walking my dog. Austin arrived promptly 3 mornings a week for 1 hour walks. Bear was thrilled to have the company and I was thrilled knowing he was in such good hands. Thank you Austin!”
“Jeffrey is awesome! He has been helping me with Nani for a few months with my chaotic work schedule. He is always prompt for walks, he is great with Nani and helpful to clients (bringing in deliveries, clean-up if there is an accident).

From belly rubs and playtime to medication and walks, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Let’s make sure your pet gets the care they deserve—even when you can’t be there. Right now, I don’t currently work, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. This allows me to be fully present for their needs throughout the day—whether that’s feeding, walking, playing, or just providing companionship. I really enjoy being around animals, and having the flexibility in my schedule means I can give them the attention and care they deserve. In my home, I have two friendly dogs who love the company of other pets, which helps create a social and welcoming environment. I also have a fully fenced backyard where pets can safely play and get exercise, along with plenty of space inside for rest and comfort.

I aim to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible by maintaining their usual environment and routines. I also make sure their space stays clean, safe, and full of positive attention while their owners are away.
“Kim has continued to be a cherished asset to our family. Such a changing household over the past year and a half. Two puppies at once. Puppies eight months apart, have been alot with two full time jobs that schedules can be unpredictable. Kim has been gracious and professional when we have had to change our times and days. She has helped us keep up on our training when she walks the puppies. Even our neighbors say how super impressed they are with her being able to manage both large puppies (70lbs each) on walks, and they behave for her. Words cannot describe how good she is with our puppies.”

About: I have been around all different kinds of pets my whole life and have always played a part in looking after and caring for them. I am super close with animals and I love getting to know them and connecting with them on a deeper level as well. Family often relies on me to look after pets while out of town and I have also taken part in some pet sitting jobs outside of family that have included basic walks, day-time visits, and sometimes over-night stays. I am currently taking some college classes but still have a lot of free time throughout the week. I’m not working any other jobs either so I’m pretty flexible aside from when I need to be in class. I try to make sure pets feel comfortable with me in their homes while remaining respectful to their environment and routine. I think it’s important to remain flexible as all pets have wants and needs specific to them.

“Our pup, Olive, had a great time! Lots of great photos. We felt confident leaving our girl with Suzanne and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“My dogs mean everything to me and it can be difficult to find a dog sitter who understands the assignment. Allison understood the assignment. My girls are 10 years apart in age are different in temperament and personality. To me, it doesn’t take a lot to care for them but I never know if that is different in the eyes of the sitter. Allison welcomed them both into her home and cared for them just as I would. She provided updates and photos throughout the stay. She was also flexible in drop off time as I had a brain fart when initially booking the stay. I will definitely choose Allison again for future stays!”
“Peaches absolutely loved her time with Kelsey and her family! Kelsey was a fantastic communicator and kept me updated with pictures and videos of Peaches’ adventures with her girls. Thank you so much for welcoming her into your home!”
“It mean so much knowing our dog is somewhere where he is loved and taken care of. Sherri takes care of our dog as well as we would and her communication is awesome. Lots of pictures and stories!”
“This was a great lil vacation for our doggo. Susan and David were kind, knowledgeable, flexible, and supportive throughout the entire process. They provided daily updates and pictures and kept us apprised of everything that happened throughout the day. I will absolutely be booking with them again.”
“April ‘s facility was very clean and secure. She sent us updated pictures and videos which we appreciated, and enlightened us on some dog training tips. Thank you for taking good care of our Kodiak.”
“Nova had a wonderful weekend with Morgan! She always takes Nova on fun walks and hikes, and sends pictures of Nova having a blast. We will always reach out to Morgan first for Nova.”
“Rebecca is absolutely fantastic! She is reliable, organized, competent, a dog whisperer, and gives our pup lots of love and walks. She provides videos and email updates. Would highly recommend.”
“Ashley and her family provided excellent care for our golden retriever Conner. Received photos daily of him playing and looking so happy!! We felt reassured that he was very comfortable and enjoying his new environment while we were on vacation.”
“Janelle and Travis saved us in a pinch and were so great to our pup. So grateful for them taking on our dog for a week after our last sitter canceled on us. They answered all of my update requests, they were so kind and my dog seemed like he had a great time. I would recommend this family if you need a dog sitter.”
“Bella had an absolute blast at Stephanie’s place. She started there for the first day being a bit nervous but Stephanie took very good care of her and made sure she felt comfortable throughout. By day 2 she was going all around the place and by the next day she had made it her home. Stephanie communicated very well throughout making sure she sent timely photos and updates on how Bella s doing. This kept us happy and calm in our time away. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone.”
“Kris was a great pet sitter! Our pups Summit and Lilo loved their stay so much!! They were very responsive and we got picture updates everyday. They made our trip to Mexico a breeze! We would recommend them 1000%!”
“Mounica took great care of our dog, Mikko. She sent consistent updates and they gave him regular walks and time outside to play! She even baked special Christmas dog treats for the few dogs they had over that time. We would book with her and her family again anytime! Thank you Mounica for the great care! We appreciate you!”
“Christel did a great job with our younger dog! She sent lots of photos and updates while we were away for 2 weeks. She made sure our dog was happy and taken care of. When we picked her, I don’t think she wanted to come home so she could keep playing all day everyday with Christel’s dog and other dogs at the house! We will definitely have Christel watch our dog again!”
“Kim and her husband were amazing! They are such sweet and kind people who took such great care of my pup I was able to do a meet and greet and she stayed in constant communication along with sending pics. Unfortunately I'm moving out of the state but if I ever come back to visit, Kim will be my first choice every time.”
“Anna was truly amazing. So excited to find our Lulu girls second favorite place to be. She was so accommodating when I booked the wrong weekend. She communicated so well. Sending me lots of pictures. She had other golden doodles and they played and went on walks. I was afraid she would not want to come home. Definitely will be booking a lot with her!”
“Kirby had the best time with Mary and new doggie friends over the weekend! He was so exhausted from playing once he got home. Thanks for taking great care of our boy!!”
