“Janessa and family took such great care of my dog for a month. My dog had such a great time playing with Janessa’s dogs in their spacious yard and her family gave her lots of love during the holidays. Communication was perfect—plenty of photos, videos and updates. We will definitely book again!”
“Chloe, thanks for watching our pups while we were traveling! They came back happy and tired from all the walks and playtime they got with you and your family. We’re already looking forward to coming back!”
“Awesome! Erika was super helpful, accommodating and very communicative! We got almost daily pictures of Luna which was amazing and Erika was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our pup came back from a week with her very happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“We had an amazing experience with Leslie. She is so professional and caring. She treated our pup like her own by spoiling him with car rides to the park, walks, treats, and toys. She kept us updated with pictures and videos. We felt confident he was receiving attention and care while we were away on vacation for a week. We cannot recommend Leslie enough!!”
“Eryn was amazing and my pup enjoyed his weekend so much! Got to see lots of fun pics and videos while I was away which was very reassuring. My pup can be a little nervous but Eryn knew how to interact with him and he seemed happy, relaxed, and worn out from running when I picked him up. We’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Thanks for watching our pup while we were gone! We received some pictures and updates throughout her stay and she looked happy being there. We’ll definitely check back for future boarding needs.”
“Jessica is great and very communicative about how everything is going! Even with a huge storm and power out, she still was letting me know everything was going well with Harper! I appreciate her taking care of Harper!!”
“Our dog Ghost was VERY excited to see Bryan again, a sign of the great time they had during the previous stay, no doubt. Bryan really goes above and beyond, treating our dog like his own. Ghost was taken care of very well. See my previous review for more details. We’re looking forward to the next booking with Bryan.”
About: Dog care Experience 🐾 Caring for dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog and have spent years looking after pups of all sizes, personalities, and needs. As a dedicated dog lover, I treat every furry guest like one of my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I do have 3 fur babies of my own. So with each new client we introduce 1 dog at a time and when I feel comfortable they will be all together under supervision of course. My home is truly a dog-loving environment. My fiancé is a mobile dog groomer and together we share a passion for providing top-quality care. Playtime and activity are an essential part of every dog’s stay. Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, interactive play, or fun, energizing walks, I make sure each pup stays happy, stimulated, and engaged. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and those with special needs, including administering medications such as eye drops. I understand the importance of patience, gentleness, and attentiveness, especially for older pets who need a little extra comfort. With me, your dog will be in safe, loving hands—because they’re not just pets, they’re family ❤️ I’m a stay-at-home dog mom, which means I’m home full-time and able to provide constant care, attention, and supervision for your pup during daycare or boarding. I do share my home with my 3 sweet fur babies. They’re friendly but can take a little time to warm up to new people and dogs. Once you drop off your pup I will allow them to sniff and explore throughout the whole entire house, front yard and backyard/garden. Then when they seem to get settled I start introduction with 1 dog at a time for about 10-15 minutes then repeat with all the dogs I have. Next step is bring 2 pups out at a time to play together but mostly its just alot of Sniffing lol Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment is very important to me, and I take the time to ensure every dog feels secure and welcomed. Your pup will be treated like part of Our Family while they’re here 🐶❤️ Home & Care Details 🐾 I have a nice, fully fenced yard where your pup can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. My three fur babies are always around to help keep your dog active, social, and engaged throughout the day. Daily activity is a priority here—we’ll enjoy plenty of playtime in the yard along with one or two walks, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. To help keep your pup comfortable and on their normal routine, I kindly ask that you: Pre-portion your dog’s food for their stay Include their usual feeding schedule Provide enough food for the entire visit Give clear, detailed instructions for any medications, if needed This helps me provide consistent, attentive care and ensures your dog feels right at home 🐶❤️ Also at drop off time I ask that you call or send me a message letting me know when you are 20 minutes away and when you arrive. I will meet you and your fur baby on the front porch and I will take over care from there ♡♡♡
“Esther did a great job of keeping us in touch with multiple pictures every day. She also had a husky of her own that kept our 115 lbs Bernese Mountain Dog puppy busy playing till he tired out. Great property for the dogs to play outside too”
“Odin is generously spoiled with each stay with Lisa. She always engages him with different activities and outings, and showers him with love and attention. He loves his Lisa vacations!”
“Our experience with Quang was exceptional. Leaving our dog for 8 days, we received regular updates, including numerous pictures and videos. It was evident that our dog felt right at home, and the thoughtful updates provided peace of mind throughout our time away. Highly recommended for their care and attention to the well-being of our pet.”
“We’re so glad to have found Wendy and her family to watch Kingston while we were on vacation. Kingston was well taken care of and her daily updates and pictures helped put my mind at ease. Thank you so very much for taking such great care of him!”
“Kim is great! She watched our dog while we were out of town and sent us photos every day! He had a great time, and for us it's great knowing there is someone like Kim for the future!”
“Diana was very accommodating and took great care of Penny. She sent regular updates and photos, which we appreciated. Penny seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up and we hope to book with her again in the future.”
“Lexi and Victor watched our golden for a few nights. They were flexible when we needed to add an additional night, and provided regular updates and photos. Would recommend!”
“We have boarded our dog Ella with Lourdez and her family on multiple occasions. Lourdez always takes great care of our dog, ensures she gets outside for walks or hikes, and treats her as part of the family. She sends frequent updates and communications are easy. We are very happy to have Lourdez as our sitter!”
“Heather took excellent care of my dog. I appreciated her responsiveness to communicating logistics and the updates she shared while caring for my dog. I would absolutely recommend her.”

“Ardelle did a fantastic job. My brave kitty made ready friends with her, and she took the time to take pictures of my shy guy, too. It was a great relief to know they were well cared for while I was away.”
“We've booked with Emily a few times now and she continues to provide amazing care for our kitties and gives great updates and photos. I love knowing she's there to check on our cats! She's quick to adjust to their needs whether it's hang time, cuddles or play. You can tell she really loves animals and respects them like her own!”
“Lora is a fantastic Rover who took great care with our home and our feline Rosie! She was attentive and went above and beyond while we escaped to the beach - highly recommended and we will be going to her in the future when needed to take care of our pets- THANK YOU”
About: Hi, I’m Ardelia! As a lifelong pet lover, science nerd, a soccer coach, and a mom of twin boy/girl teenagers, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they are family. I understand the stress of finding someone you can trust with your "fur babies," and I am here to provide the peace of mind you need while you’re away. I have Luke, my sweet 6-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix, and Gabe, my 9-year-old cat. My home is a pet paradise! I have a large, fully fenced yard with professional turf, perfect for zoomies and safe outdoor play. Why choose me? Medical Experience: My senior cat, Gabe, is diabetic. I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering medications and monitoring special medical needs. Total Flexibility: Life happens! Whether it’s a last-minute business trip or a change in plans, I offer a flexible cancellation policy and welcome short-notice bookings. Active Lifestyle: When I’m not coaching on the soccer field, I’m hiking the beautiful PNW trails. If your dog loves to move, they’ve found the right sitter! A "Mom’s" Perspective: I treat every guest pet with the same love, routine, and attention I give my own kids and pets.
“Marie did an excellent job pet sitting our cats. The messages and photos she sent helped us know our pets were in great care. I highly recommend Marie and will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Madeleine was an absolute godsend. This was our first time leaving Twinkie alone for such a long time, and we were naturally very anxious. Madeleine took care of her as if she were her own cat, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter! She followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated throughout. Twinkie is an extremely shy and anxious cat who has never been comfortable around strangers, but Madeleine was so patient and gentle that Twinkie eventually warmed up to her. Seeing Twinkie come out of hiding to greet her was something we never expected and gave us so much peace of mind. Madeleine even went above and beyond by getting a Feliway diffuser when she noticed Twinkie was experiencing separation anxiety. That level of care and thoughtfulness meant the world to us. We came home to a happy, well cared for cat and felt completely at ease knowing Twinkie was in such loving hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Madeleine to anyone looking for a compassionate, reliable, and truly exceptional pet sitter. We would absolutely book her again!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m very attentive to each dog’s routine and needs, whether that means regular walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply providing calm companionship. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, comfort level, and any specific instructions from their owner. I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, basic grooming like brushing, cleaning up after pets, and making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need. I pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. My goal is always to make pets feel as relaxed and loved as they would at home. I also make sure owners feel at ease by providing updates and photos so they know their dog is in good hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day rather than rushing visits. I’m able to adapt to each pet’s routine and make sure they get the care, consistency, and attention they’re used to at home. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every dog in my care is supervised, secure, and in a calm environment where they can feel safe and relaxed. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, routines, and any special needs their dog may have. I pay close attention to behavior and body language to make sure dogs are comfortable and not stressed. I also keep a clean and organized environment, remove any potential hazards, and make sure dogs are always handled with patience and care. When outside, I prioritize leash safety and awareness of surroundings to ensure safe walks. Building trust with both dogs and their owners is very important to me. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing and can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and dependable experience for every dog I care for. 🐶
About: I have loved cats since I was a kid, despite most of my family is allergic to cats. Over the years, I have been entrusted to take care of my neighbor's 3 cats while they were out of town, which required me to feed, pick up after, and play with them. I look forward to adopting a cat of my own, but until then, I look forward to caring for yours!
“Gianna was very helpful in a last-minute request for our 4 cats, including one who requires inhaler and medicine administration. She provided thorough updates and shared pictures of all four (even the hard to find ones). For disclosure, I am a Rover employee.”
“Our kitties were well taken care of and we felt so much better about being away knowing Scarlett was checking in on them. She sent us photos every visit of them so we knew they were happy! I'd recommend her to anyone needing care for their animals!”
“Our cats love hanging out with Jennifer! She had great communication with us and sent us tons of photos while we were on our trip which really put me at ease. We are always grateful when she is available. Highly recommend!!”
“Lindsay was awesome! She took great care of my cat while I was out of town. My cat threw up a couple of times, and she went above and beyond—not just making sure he was okay and clean, but also cleaning up the carpet and furniture. She’s super caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I came home to a happy cat and a clean house. Highly recommend her!”
“Eleena was great! I had a last minute work trip and Eleena was gracious enough to work with me on last minute requests for two weeks. My kitties loved her, even the skittish one! Will definitely request her next time.”
About: Hi there my name is Kelsey and I have centered my life around the health and well being of our furry friends. I spent 6 years working in pet insurance and have gained a lot of knowledge about how to create healthy and safe environments for our animals. The key is giving them time to warm up to a new environment, routine care and lots of affection. My own dog turns 15 this year and people still ask me if she is a puppy because of how active and happy she is around others. I always treat every animal as if they are my own and would be honored to do so for your pet too. I spend the majority of my time at home, hanging out in the backyard and have a pretty flexible schedule. We’d go outside at least 5-10 times a day, always early in the morning and right before bed. I have a fenced yard on over an acre of land and lots of non-harmful plants that my dogs loves to sniff around. When the dogs are outside I will be right there with them enjoying the afternoon.
About: I've taken care of cats of every kind for over 10 years, including my own. I understand the unique nature of many cats & specific breeds, and truly believe I have a strong attention to detail; therefore, I understand the importance of requirements such as indoor-only cats, medication administration, and more!

“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”
“Anji was wonderful with both of our dogs who are never in daycare or boarding, so this was a new situation for them and for us. Anji made it easy! She was so responsive and kind to us, and our dogs were very comfortable leaving us to go with her, and obviously taken excellent care of! We’re so grateful to Anji and will definitely be rebooking with her.”

“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs, mostly Pit Bulls, and have always been comfortable caring for and being around them. I also cared for my own dog for over a year after getting her when she was around 6 months old. She had a difficult past and had already had puppies at a very young age, so she needed extra patience, trust, and consistency. I worked with her and taught her basic commands, and she became very responsive to me. I’m currently available for pet care any day and at flexible times throughout the week. Starting August 31, I’ll be attending school Monday through Friday from 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Outside of those hours, I’ll still have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and other pet care needs. My school schedule is consistent each day, so I’m able to plan my availability reliably around it. I treat every pet in my care like they are my own. I want them to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I make sure they are fed on their normal schedule, have fresh water, get their walks and exercise, and have plenty of playtime and attention. I also enjoy playing with their favorite toys and getting to know their personality and routine. I understand that some pets may take a little time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and let them get comfortable with me at their own pace.
“Ardelle is awesome! She is so responsive and took care of our dog, Sky, on a very short notice. Sky had the best time, came back home happy tired and all cleaned up. Thank you so much Ardelle, would love to be back.”
“Our english springer spaniel had a great day! Adrienne is so nice and just really great to work with. And she did a great job with our very energetic pup. Also, her place with lots of open space for the dogs to run is perfect.”
“Thank you Joyce for watching Jax at the last minute. Joyce treated my dog like her own. Jax got along well with her dogs and was comfortable being there. I will definitely have Jax over again.”
“Kim is wonderful and patient. I have never taken my dogs to day care before and they were nervous and shy. Kim was wonderful with them and sent photos throughout the day. I was so happy with her services that I rebooked another doggy day care day and will be boarding with her. She made the experience very positive for myself and my dogs.”
“If I could give Manish 6 stars I would! He agreed to watch my two Malinois last minute, one of whom is a bit reactive. He prioritized a meet’n’greet to make sure all dogs felt comfortable; I was at ease instantly seeing him work the dogs through calming exercises to get to know each other. My reactive pup calmed down within minutes and ended up having a great time with his dog, Odin. He sent photos during their doggy day care visit and the pups came home happy and tired. Definitely recommend, I will book again!”
“Silvana is incredible. She took care of our 5 month old pup. He gave her kisses when he left. Silvana cares so much about dogs and I can tell how much she cared about rupee. Silvana made me feel so comfortable on our trip.”
“Cheri has watched our pup twice and both times he’s come home content and ready for a little shut eye - it must be the nice, long walk in the forest. :) … Thank you for taking care of our somewhat anxious, excitable pup and for the excellent communication. Looking forward to more stays!!”
About: I grew up playing and taking care of my two dogs, feeding them, bathing them and loving them are some of my favorite and most cherished moments from my childhood. After many years of feeling the void of not having any pets around we recently adopted an absolutely adorable puppy (lab retriever mix) named Hershey. I also used to dog sit for my aunt’s senior dog (Lhasa apso) everytime they needed help. I’m a stay at home dog pawrent to my adorable puppy Hershey, usually home most of the time so your dog will be well taken care of. We have a fully fenced moderate sized backyard and also have an almost 8 month old very friendly chocolate lab retriever mixed puppy to keep you fur child company. You’ll get very frequent updates about your fur child.

About: Hi there! Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. My background includes working as a veterinary assistant, years of hands-on pet care experience and working as a K9 handler. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I strive to provide care that keeps them comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I have experience with high energy, senior, special needs and more. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. I provide dependable communication, plenty of photo updates, and attentive care for dogs, cats, and other household pets. My goal is simple: to treat your pets like they're my own and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I’m so excited to share that I now have FULL TIME availability for pet care! My calendar will be up to date so reach out for any help you may need! I can do daily or weekly walks and drop ins every day with no time restraints (unless I am booked). I currently do not have room to have your pet stay in my home, however I am more than happy to come to you whether that is for a walk/playtime and mealtime or for an overnight stay! I am more than happy to bring anything with me extra you might need or not have.
“Courtney is the best! We are so grateful to have found her. Our dogs love her and the kids. There’s a noticeable difference in the pups when we come home when they’ve gotten their Courtney time compared to other Rover experiences we’ve had”
About: I’ve been taking care of my pets since I was a kid. Animals are a passion of mine so I know how to care for them! For now, I am unemployed, so I am flexible with taking care of your animals. I am available almost times around the day and can stay as long as I need to. I can ensure the absolute safety of your animals. I’m able to keep a good eye on animals and make sure they don’t get into anything they’re not supposed to.
“Lolita took great care walking my two pups! I’m always a little nervous at first to find a new walker — but I felt so comfortable and at ease with Lolita. Will be booking again! :)”
About: My experience ranges wide from puppy training + care, all the way too administering medicine for senior dogs and caring for their special needs! I pride myself on ensuring the individual needs of each different pet are met, no matter what they may be! I currently attend Washington State University at the Pullman campus, and am currently home between the months of May and August. I am employed part time, but have plenty of extra time to devote to your fur babies! Safety & client relationships are a top priority in how I care for pets. I believe open communication between a sitter and client is crucial for peace of mind when allowing for someone else to care for your babies. I provide updates, pictures, and messages to ensure comfort on both ends. Honesty is key! I also take home safety seriously when visiting clients' properties. Locking all exterior doors, windows, and garages are a primary focus post-visiting your pet. I understand it may be nerve wracking to invite someone into your space with your furry companion, and I want to ensure I am treating your environment with the upmost respect and care.
About: My family has 4 chocolate labs that I grew up with and trained. I have a cat named Sunny who I’ve harness/leash trained. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10 and I would love to care for your animals! I am home from college for the summer and would love the chance to watch your furry friends! I have a flexible schedule so message me to check. I have a fenced in yard where I take care of my dogs at home! My cat stays inside and has many toys, a cat tree, etc. I take my families dogs on walks daily and provide stimulation for my cat because he isn’t allowed outside. I care for the safety of my animals very much and the same goes for all animals. Safety is my number one priority

About: I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily. If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. We help each other out! Only excepting smaller to medium sized dogs for new clients currently. I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember and have had cats nearly my entire life. Caring for animals isn’t new to me; it’s second nature. Pet sitting fits comfortably into my schedule, allowing me to give your pet focused, unrushed attention. I make sure visits are intentional — not squeezed in between distractions — so your pet gets the time and care they deserve. I’m dependable, punctual, and communicative, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, routines, and home guidelines. I double-check doors, secure entry points, and remain mindful of safety at all times. Because I’m a pet owner myself, I know the level of care I’d want for my own animals — and that’s exactly what I provide.

I also cared for my own dog for over a year after getting her when she was around 6 months old. She had a difficult past and had already had puppies at a very young age, so she needed extra patience, trust, and consistency. I worked with her and taught her basic commands, and she became very responsive to me. I’m currently available for pet care any day and at flexible times throughout the week. Starting August 31, I’ll be attending school Monday through Friday from 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Outside of those hours, I’ll still have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and other pet care needs. My school schedule is consistent each day, so I’m able to plan my availability reliably around it. I treat every pet in my care like they are my own. I want them to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I make sure they are fed on their normal schedule, have fresh water, get their walks and exercise, and have plenty of playtime and attention. I also enjoy playing with their favorite toys and getting to know their personality and routine. I understand that some pets may take a little time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and let them get comfortable with me at their own pace.
About: Hi, I’m Ardelia! As a lifelong pet lover, science nerd, a soccer coach, and a mom, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they are family. I understand the stress of finding someone you can trust with your "fur babies," and I am here to provide the peace of mind you need while you’re away. We have Luke, our sweet 6-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix, and Gabe, our 10-year-old cat. Our home is a pet paradise! We have a large, fully fenced yard with professional turf, perfect for zoomies and safe outdoor play. Why choose me? Medical Experience: My senior cat, Gabe, is diabetic. I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering medications and monitoring special medical needs. Total Flexibility: Life happens! Whether it’s a last-minute business trip or a change in plans, I offer a flexible cancellation policy and welcome short-notice bookings. Active Lifestyle: When I’m not coaching on the soccer field, I’m hiking the beautiful PNW trails. If your dog loves to move, they’ve found the right sitter! A "Mom’s" Perspective: I treat every guest pet with the same love, routine, and attention I give my own kids and pets. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so I have plenty of time on weekdays and weekends to care for your fur babies. I set my own schedule so I can arrange my workday appointments accordingly around your pet's needs. For overnight or day visits, I have a fenced back yard with turf and two friendly pets to keep them company in my home. I will always treat your home and your fur babies with love and respect during drop-in and walking visits. Under my care, I will give your pets my sole attention and ensure they are happy and loved while you are away.
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 8yrs old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and care for their pets ranging from dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, guinea pigs, turtles, etc... I'm currently operating a pet services company; so all of my time is focused around pets and my calendar is scheduled around your pets and other's My family and I show lots of love and give lots of pets to any pups in our house. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup named Kirra to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate if your pet feels more comfortable that way
About: I have been a dog sitter awhile and have gained a lot of experience. I have done overnight stays, check ins, dog walks, and more. I have a puppy of my own and have grown up with dogs my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and more have trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, and play with them. Worked with many different dogs and various ages. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to come check in on the pups and play with them. My work schedule does change depending on the week but I am available every day of the week. I am free mornings and nights and would have time mid day to check in on the dogs. I have a fenced yard for my dog and I walk him twice a day so he can get his energy out. I would walk your dogs how ever much is needed. Additionally, I would make sure to check in on them multiple times outside of my other jobs to ensure that they are good and can be let out. I am comfortable making sure any necessary medication is given on time and that they are also fed at there normal times. I know how much pets need to play and I would love to play fetch and more with your pets!!
About: Hi there my name is Kelsey and I have centered my life around the health and well being of our furry friends. I spent 6 years working in pet insurance and have gained a lot of knowledge about how to create healthy and safe environments for our animals. The key is giving them time to warm up to a new environment, routine care and lots of affection. My own dog turns 15 this year and people still ask me if she is a puppy because of how active and happy she is around others. I always treat every animal as if they are my own and would be honored to do so for your pet too. I spend the majority of my time at home, hanging out in the backyard and have a pretty flexible schedule. We’d go outside at least 5-10 times a day, always early in the morning and right before bed. I have a fenced yard on over an acre of land and lots of non-harmful plants that my dogs loves to sniff around. When the dogs are outside I will be right there with them enjoying the afternoon.
“Raeven is clearly gifted! She is one of the good ones. She is truly a dog whisperer. My dog, Gabby, absolutely loves her like I have never seen her behave with another person save for me and my husband. It makes my heart smile. I know she is being well taken care of and super happy. Raeven is communicative, sends pics, and clearly cares about each animal like they belong to her personally.”
About: I’ve been caring for my own animals since I was a child, and professionally since I was a teenager. Animals soothe my soul and I love having the opportunity to spoil your pets like I do my own! I know the value of an attentive and communicative caregiver, and I love to keep my clients informed and aware of how their babies are doing! I am an educator and off for the summer, so I have lots of time to love on your pets and tire out your dogs with activity and walks! My schedule is very flexible and I communicate well, don’t be afraid to ask for what you need! I will treat your home and neighborhoods with the upmost respect of space, privacy, and cleanliness. I believe in respecting the boundaries of your home and leaving no mess or stress for you to come home to!

“Our dog Ghost was VERY excited to see Bryan again, a sign of the great time they had during the previous stay, no doubt. Bryan really goes above and beyond, treating our dog like his own. Ghost was taken care of very well. See my previous review for more details. We’re looking forward to the next booking with Bryan.”
“Esther did a great job of keeping us in touch with multiple pictures every day. She also had a husky of her own that kept our 115 lbs Bernese Mountain Dog puppy busy playing till he tired out. Great property for the dogs to play outside too”
“Odin is generously spoiled with each stay with Lisa. She always engages him with different activities and outings, and showers him with love and attention. He loves his Lisa vacations!”
“Our experience with Quang was exceptional. Leaving our dog for 8 days, we received regular updates, including numerous pictures and videos. It was evident that our dog felt right at home, and the thoughtful updates provided peace of mind throughout our time away. Highly recommended for their care and attention to the well-being of our pet.”
“Diana was very accommodating and took great care of Penny. She sent regular updates and photos, which we appreciated. Penny seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up and we hope to book with her again in the future.”
“Lexi and Victor watched our golden for a few nights. They were flexible when we needed to add an additional night, and provided regular updates and photos. Would recommend!”
“Chris was wonderful! He was so accommodating with our last minute weekend trip. Matilda and Charlie adjusted quite well and made new friends. Will definitely book again- Thank you!”
“Our pup, Loki, loves staying at Cynthia’s. We have boarded him a couple of times and would definitely board him again in the future. We get updated (pictures and texts) 2-3 times a day and can tell how happy Loki is staying with them.”
“I'm grateful that Linda answered my last-minute request for two drop-in visits. She kept me informed with multiple texts, sent nice pictures, and said she'd love caring for my two little dogs again. Highly recommended.”
“Our experience with Katie and her family was nothing short of incredible. From the meet and greet where Katie listened to all the things that make Wrigley, Wrigley, to sharing what we could expect for him while in her care, to the drop off where they helped ease the goodbye (Wrigs has short-term separation anxiety), to the photos and texts during his stay, to the pickup where Wrigley clearly demonstrated that he was settled and comfortable (it took him a minute for him to even realize I was calling his name b/c he was engaging with Katie), we couldn't have asked for more. They adapted to Wrigley's needs and welcomed him right in. Wrigley came home happy (and wiped out) from his 4 day playdate, and we know where we'll try and send him whenever we need to know that he's getting the same kind of care and love we give him at home. Thank you, Katie and family!”
“We left our dog with Amin for three days and had a great experience. He took wonderful care of her and kept us updated with photos and detailed reports every day—it felt like he was giving updates about our kid:) It was clear that he genuinely cared about making her stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. We felt completely at ease while we were away and will definitely be leaving our dog with him again. Highly recommend!”
“Our high energy lab SAL knows a dog lover when she sees one! We get to Irey’s house and I’m dragged up the stairs to the front door. Needless to say I worry not when our dog is there. A clean loving environment where happy dogs abound! Great communication as well.”
“My mini Aussie Kyah had a lot of fun playing with the other dogs and also snuggling with Jean. It was the first time I had left her and my anxiety was greatly reduced knowing Kyah was in good hands and seeing all the frequent updates and pictures.”
“Lexi was great with our puppies in their first stay away from home. They came home with us, clean, happy, and ready for lots of hugs and lap time. She kept us posted during the stay, was quick to response when we checked in and sent pics of the pups playing with her in her home.”
“Dalton had a great time there. He was well taken care of. Anping followed the instructions to feed him and gave him enough exercise everyday. Will board with Anping again.”
