“As a furbaby mama, there is always a heart tug when I need to leave my dog.. Kellene was just awesome how she would care and love my my dog Precious...Kellene also brought this mama joy and comfort by the updates and pictures throughout my time away from Precious. I would highly recommend her and her dog Coco....”
“Becky is the absolute best! I wish I could give a higher rating than 5 stars for her. Our older dog got sick while staying with her, and she went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of, even offering to take him to the vet while we were away on vacation. She gave us lots of updates to let us know how he was doing; communication was great. She told us when we first met that when dogs stay with her, she treats them like part of her family, and she showed us that she really means it.”
“Willow had a great time! Laura took great care of her and sent a photo every day. She got along well with Diesel, and she ate all her food, which means she was very comfortable at Laura’s house. Knowing she was doing well allowed us to enjoy our vacation more. We will definitely book Laura again!”
“Awesome communication even during a short stay! We dropped our dog with separation anxiety off with her and she was amazing. Walked him, fed him and played with him. Your dog is in good hands with Blythe! Would use her again.”
“Katrina was amazing with my dog Cannoli! She’s very knowledgeable and kind, and makes sure all the dogs in her home are comfortable and happy. I’d confidently book her again!”
“Joe and Lilly were wonderful! My dog Ruth had a great weekend with them. They were very kind, and accommodating when I had an emergency. Thank you!”
“Ashlee is amazing with Bosco and sends us pictures of him playing with all his new friends! Hes always so excited when he first sees her which makes leaving him a little bit easier ☺️”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mary and would highly recommend her!! She boarded our dog in her home for nine nights. She was extremely responsive and flexible, and sent lots of pictures with our dog playing and going on walks to his favorite places. We could tell how much she enjoys animals. Thank you for taking such good care of Auggie! 😀”
“Kelli was amazing with my dog Dusty!! She sent frequent updates throughout my time away and made me feel very comfortable through the whole process. My dog definitely loved spending time with her. Would highly recommend Kelli and will definitely be using her services again!”

“Looking for the ONE? Erin is perfect with my 11 yr old Chihuahua! She boarded him for 6 nights, sent pictures, kept me updated every step of the way! He was comfortable with her dogs, happy, got in lots of walks and some cuddle time! She is professional, courteous, caring and really thoughtful about the needs of your pooch! Don’t hesitate to book a stay or walks with her! I highly recommend! 👍👏”
“My dog loves going to Stacey’s place. She takes great care of him even with his different eating preferences. Will keep booking with her and definitely recommend!”
“Marilynn is THE BEST! Super loving and accommodating to our two dogs. She set pictures and updates to us daily, and included a sweet little note in their things for us to read when we picked them up. If Marilynn would take our somewhat grumpy old guy and our high octane little girl again, we would love it!”
About: As a dog lover my whole life, I wasn't able to get one of my own until a year and a half ago. Having our golden retriever Tommy has completely changed my life for the better! I absolutely love dogs of all kinds and enjoy being outdoors and playing with them. I work full time remotely, so I am extremely available and flexible to your schedule. I can accommodate any needs and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and everywhere in between. Tommy has been professionally trained and gets along great with other dogs. We are able to keep dogs in our apartment if needed, and have lots of parks and sidewalks near by for exercise. I currently work from home full time, so I am very flexible for your pets needs. I currently keep our golden retriever active (as he very much needs it!) and would love to add another dog to the bunch if needed. I live in an apartment but have lots of access to local parks and walking trails. I am available for drop-in visits and walks as well.
“Hannah was absolute perfection with Murphy over the weekend! Right from the start, her communication was fantastic—she kept us updated with regular check-ins, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. I felt 100% confident and safe leaving Murphy in her care, knowing he was receiving so much attention and love. He came home happy and well-cared for. We will definitely be reaching out to Hannah again for our next trip!”
“I’m super grateful to Rachel and Matt. They were such kind, attentive sitters to Chloe. They have a large, enclosed back yard in a safe neighborhood and two sweet, well trained dogs to play with. They took her on walks AND runs! They sent me adorable videos and photos of Chloe during her stay. She usually doesn’t eat much when staying with sitters but she ate even more than usual - showing how comfortable and well exercised she was at their home. I think she misses her vacation home! I will definitely be requesting Rachel and Matt for doggy care in the future!”
“Julia was so great with my Buzz! She sent plenty of pictures and videos and kept me updated while I was away for the weekend. I will absolutely be requesting her services again and would recommend her to anyone! Thanks again!”

“Very friendly to me and the kitties! Followed instructions for the cats perfectly! I have one cat that is blind and has to take medication but is scared of new people and that was handled perfectly while I was gone for a few days. Gave simple updates with a few cute pics of them both. Will gladly hire again to watch my cats 😁”
“We have hired Angela twice, and would love to have her again. We have 2 very shy cats and they actually come out and play with her. Angela is very thorough and gives us updates with pictures during every visit.”

About: In addition to growing up with family pets, I've been a mom (and step-mom) to two cats and fish for the past four years. I've been a regular point of contact for friends needing dog walks or drop-in care. I'm excited to extend my services and make new furry, four-legged (or no-legged!) friends. I'm a work from home professional and welcome the opportunity to step away from my desk, whether that's to check in on your pets at home or stretch their legs (and mine)! I approach pet sitting with respect for your pet's routine and individual care needs. I believe in regular communication and in providing attentive, detailed care.
“MacKenna did a great job taking care of my cat. She was very caring, conscientious and made sure she kept me up to date on everything that was happening. I highly recommend MacKenna as a cat sitter to anyone.”
“Courtney took wonderful care of our cat while we were on vacation. It was the first time we’d left Percy for so long so I had been a little nervous, but after meeting Courtney and seeing how much she loves animals I was sure he would be happy and safe. She kept in great communication with us, sending lots of photos and videos. She and Percy were best friends in no time! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet ☺️”
“Blythe was great. I was worried about leaving my fur baby for a week but Bylthe made sure to send me daily updates and pictures on how he was doing. Made being away from him so much easier and I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Teri is great! She is quick to respond to correspondences and is always very professional. Se sent lots of pics of my cat while I was away. He was obviously very happy to spend time with her. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Taylor was great to work with. He was punctual and took time to love on my baby and make sure she was doing good. They played with her favorite toys and cuddled a bit. I knew that my kitty was in great hands with Taylor and I trust him like family with my babies.”
About: As lifelong cat lover and proud inheritor of my mom’s habit of trying to rescue every stray that crosses my path. Cats have been a part of my life since I was about seven years old, and I truly adore everything about them—from their independent spirit to their unapologetic sass. I fully support their right to live life with that kind of audacity—it’s part of their charm! Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of cats, from outgoing cuddle bugs to shy or nervous companions who need a little extra patience and understanding. I also have experience with senior cats and those who require medication, and I’m comfortable managing special routines or handling more gentle needs. Whether your cat is playful, aloof, snuggly, or spicy, I’ll meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, respected, and loved while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your cat in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that lightly. From strays to seniors, I’ve loved and looked after them all—and I’d be honored to care for yours like family.
About: Hi! My name is Jamie and I have been a dog mom for 6 years, but a pet lover for my whole life. I personally know how difficult it can be to leave your pets alone and I want to give people peace of mind that their best friends are loved and cared for while they are away. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I love to take my own dogs for walks and adventures around the neighborhood. I also enjoy playing catch with them and cuddling at the end of the day. I have experience taking care of large and small dogs, as well as high energy and low-maintenance dogs. I look forward to giving your animals the care and attention they deserve!
“Mia dropped in to take care of my cats when I was out of town. She did a great job trying to make them feel comfortable and keep up their normal routine. It was also great to know that someone was there to check in with them. She sent check-in pictures of the cats and they even warmed up to her being there. It was wonderful to have Mia take care of the cats.”

“We had a great daycare experience with Jack, he looked after our Winnie! We booked on short notice and he was very flexible, which we really appreciated. Winnie was very well looked after and came home happy and relaxed. I loved the pictures he sent throughout the day, it gave me peace of mind since it was her first time away from home. We will definitely be booking with Jack again! 🐾”
“Elba had her hands full with our very spunky and relentlessly playful pup, but she did a fantastic job caring for Libby and patiently handling her with her high energy. Libby fell fast asleep once we came home and she slept the entire rest of the evening and night. She was worn out! I definitely recommend Elba and we can't wait to come back again!”
“Lotte gets along great with Katrina’s dogs and Katrina is wonderful with her and communicates regularly to let us know how who she is doing. We’re thankful to find someone who can watch her regularly.”
“Friendly, flexible, and most importantly my little dog seems super happy and worn out after spending the day playing with theirs! Seems like a safe and fun fit for my fur child and will continue to rebook!”
“Erin was an excellent host for Katie for daycare! She greeted Katie outside with a treat. We were updated with pictures throughout the day: including Katie playing with their dogs, relaxing like the queen that she is, and exploring the neighborhood on a walk. Erin was flexible with pickup times which really helped with a changing schedule due to travel delays. Already booked another stay for Katie.”
“Miranda is the best. She takes such good care of our people-shy dog. She was patient with him and let him warm up to her on his own, and now he loves going to her house...full on butt wiggles when he makes his way over to her. It gives us great piece of mind to know that he’s so well taken care of.”
“Chatty seemed to really enjoy her time at Mikeila's house. Mikeila was very good at communicating with me and kept me informed during her stay. Chatty was excited to see Mikeila and couldn't wait to get into her house. I would highly recommend Mikeila for any dog sitting/daycare services.”
“Alexandrea took great care of my 12 week old puppy Driggs. 😊 She sent me lots of photos of Driggs and kept me updated on how he was doing. She also watched him back to back last minute and I appreciated her willingness to do so! I will definitely be using her again and totally recommend her!”
“Julia and her family was very kind to me and Joker. They took care of Joker all day sending me pictures and videos and explaining how he was doing. Joker was happy in her house and I am sure we will contact her in the future.”
About: Since 2020, I have provided consistent care for a variety of dogs and cats, ranging from energetic puppies to adult dogs with unique personalities and care needs. Through caring for family pets, foster dogs, and client pets, I have developed experience with feeding routines, exercise, leash handling, medication administration, basic behavior reinforcement, and maintaining a safe, comfortable environment while owners are away. My sister's five-year-old Goldendoodle, Theo, has been one of the dogs I have cared for most extensively. I regularly pick him up from daycare, provide overnight and multi-day care, take him on hikes and walks, and reinforce positive behaviors. Through consistent training and positive reinforcement, I taught him to greet visitors calmly by sitting patiently before receiving attention, helping him manage his excitement and practice good manners. In addition, I assisted my older sister with the care of her foster dogs, giving me the opportunity to work with more than 15 dogs of varying breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. This experience strengthened my ability to quickly build trust with new dogs, recognize individual needs, and adapt my care approach accordingly. Most recently, I completed a week-long house-sitting assignment caring for a dog and cat. My responsibilities included administering medications, maintaining feeding and hydration schedules, providing daily exercise through multiple-mile walks, sending regular photo updates to the owners, keeping the home clean and secure, and maintaining a fresh, odor-free litter box. I take pride in providing dependable, attentive care that gives pet owners peace of mind while ensuring their pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a flexible schedule to accommodate your dog care needs all throughout the work day, weekends and some evenings as well. I am open to any care needs you have, including at my own house if needed. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, and any household rules. During walks and visits, I pay close attention to the pet’s behavior, energy level, and surroundings to ensure their safety. I also provide plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and affection based on each pet’s needs. I keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy, well cared for, and maintaining their regular routine while they’re away.
“Dean is an awesome dog sitter! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with him for the night! Dean made sure to send updates and pictures! Our dog had so much fun with Dean and his resident pup! We would be happy to book him again!”
“Kait and Zelda have taken care of Joker like one more in the house. Joker has felt very comfortable with them and have enjoyed their company so much. I really appreciate all the pictures during the day and your kindness to us. We will keep Kait for future needs.”
About: Welcome to my profile! I grew up with a wide variety of pets, so I truly understand how each one has their own unique personality. I know how deserving of love every animal is, and I will do everything in my power to make your pets happy. I treat your pets as my own, while also understanding the need to accommodate to every pet's individual quirks and needs. I recently lost one of my pups to cancer, and because of this, I am really yearning for some more furry friends to meet. Maybe your pet can be my next friend! I recently lost my job, so I currently have a very open schedule! I do have a couple of established clients outside of Rover, but my schedule is still very flexible. I live in a condo-style apartment, so although I do not have a yard, I go on many walks each day- whether around my neighborhood or by driving to a park or beach. I also live just down the street from a dog park, for pups who enjoy socialization and time off-leash. Additionally, I have a patio space for pups who enjoy hanging out al fresco when the weather allows. My own pup is a bit of an escape artist, so I am extra careful with doors, gates, and secure leashing practices. I am also aware of how curious dogs can be, so in my home you can be sure of a safe environment where there are no dangers within a dog's reach (or jump). Not only do I treat your pets with love and respect, but I treat your home with the same care. You can be sure I will keep things neat and tidy, and always make an effort to leave a space cleaner than I found it. No matter the service or location, every animal deserves to feel safe, cared for, and loved. I assure you that I put all my energy into caring for your pets, and I will always treat them as I do my own.
“Wendy was super responsive and communicative! She was able to take Jenny last minute for daycare and she got along great with Batman! Highly recommend and will definitely be back if need a sitter in Milwaukee!”
About: I wanted to start off with this first impression… I will treat your animal as if they were my own, my passion is genuine! I have a bachelors in Animal Sciences from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign with a potential career goal to become a Veterinarian. I’m currently completing the Veterinary Nursing Program at Purdue University online, to become a certified Veterinary Technician. I’m working in a vet clinic. In the past, I have done dental cleaning on cats & dogs, very satisfying. I’m experienced with administering medication, injection, insulin, etc. I have a genuine love for animals. I’m a professional trusted and long term sitter for my clients. I’m reliable, flexible, and qualified. I have a lot of knowledge for companion animals that I will love to teach my clients. I'm super loving, energetic and calm. I trained service dogs in training while I was in college. I do have the ability to recognize behavioral signals. I’m experienced with reactive, anxious, special needs and aggressive pets. I have a extra connections with every pet that enters my life. You would not be disappointed if you let your pet bond with me , and trust your pet in my hands. They’re in good hands, smother with lovings and cuddles. I will love to be able to make a special bond with your pet. I hope to have you and your pet as a potential clients! Thank you! I try to follow the owner’s and pet’s schedule as closely as possible and adhere to the detailed instructions. I will discuss with the owner prior my schedule and if it will be a good fit. I have friendly pups and a curious kitten for boarding. During home visit / house visit / walks I go off owner/pet schedule and needs.. I love written instructions on care for the individuals and I always give exceptional care.
About: I owned a dog growing up and cared for and trained one with my family. I sit for friends and family from time to time and I love to play and take dogs for walks and, if they are able, runs of up to a few miles! I have a fenced in yard, and my kids (4, 8) are also great with animals. I work from home. With the exception of rare travel days, school drop-offs, and evening events, I will always be around the house to care for your pup. Your pet will get the attention it needs, as I work from home and I have a fenced in yard, as well as young boys that are great with animals. Frequent outside visits and play times are very doable.
About: Growing up my family owned a welsh springer spaniel. He was one of my best friends. I felt the same excitement he did when I walked in our front door to his excited jumping. After 13 years, he passed away of old age. Since then I have wanted to get a dog of my own, but I’m waiting until my husband and I get a house to take that step. In the meantime, I love caring for other family dogs. This is a super fun side job for me. I love all types of dogs, have experience with senior dogs, and am happy to care for more than one pet from the same home (whether they be cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, etc.). If your dog is nervous around new people, I will make sure to give them the care, attention, and space that they need. I always give frequent potty breaks, feed them at their regular time, and am very careful around doorways (so no one runs off on any solo adventures!). I always do an initial home visit with my husband so I can meet your pets before setting up a first booking with a new customer. I send great picture updates, so hopefully you won’t miss your dog too much. You will undoubtedly love how passionate I am about keeping your pet in a safe, loving environment while you are away. I am currently working as an 8th grade teacher. I am able to get to your home between the hours of 4pm-10pm on weeknights. I am available all day on Saturdays. I am available Sundays after 10:30am. I am available to do home visits to feed your pets, groom with a brush/bath, play their favorite games, go on long walks or runs, and spend the night if you need a house sitter. I can also take care of other pets including cats, hamsters, fish, chickens, etc. If you need someone to water plants while you are away, I can take care of that too!
“Yshonda was absolutely wonderful to work with. We were a bit nervous because we have two fur babies with two different personalities and unique needs and Yshonda was very accommodating and flexible and was able to set our minds at ease. The babies are comfortable with her and seem to really enjoy her company. She’s friendly, personable and obviously loves dogs. She’s an amazing sitter and I would recommend her to anyone especially people who have never tried a dog sitter before. Check her out!”
“Luscely was available last minute and didn't make me jump through hoops to dogsit. She was communicative, fair, and my dog was happy. I will absolutely use her again!”

“Elba is fantastic! She took such amazing care of our pup! She truly cares for the animal and spends such quality time with them to make sure they get all the love. Cannot recommend enough!!”
“Cory has been walking Mollee for over a year now! He cares for her like she is his own! He has been flexible with schedules and often helps us out by bringing in packages and cleaning up if Mollee has made a mess in the house! We are so thankful to have found him!”
“Devon was great! I completely forgot about our appt to meet up before the walk, but she was able to make friends with my dog very quickly after meeting him, followed directions well, and sent cute pics! I’d definitely recommend!”
About: In addition to growing up with family pets, I've been a mom (and step-mom) to two cats and fish for the past four years. I've been a regular point of contact for friends needing dog walks or drop-in care. I'm excited to extend my services and make new furry, four-legged (or no-legged!) friends. I'm a work from home professional and welcome the opportunity to step away from my desk, whether that's to check in on your pets at home or stretch their legs (and mine)! I approach pet sitting with respect for your pet's routine and individual care needs. I believe in regular communication and in providing attentive, detailed care.
“Tanya was so great to Callie! She had excellent communication and was very reliable. I trust her with the pup and being in my apartment. Will for sure use her dog walking services again in the future.”
About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm experienced with dogs from all walks of life, from your social butterflies to your shy guys, your runners fetchers swimmers and wrestlers, you name it, I'm down for it. I have confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.

I am currently working as an 8th grade teacher. I am able to get to your home between the hours of 4pm-10pm on weeknights. I am available all day on Saturdays. I am available Sundays after 10:30am. I am available to do home visits to feed your pets, groom with a brush/bath, play their favorite games, go on long walks or runs, and spend the night if you need a house sitter. I can also take care of other pets including cats, hamsters, fish, chickens, etc. If you need someone to water plants while you are away, I can take care of that too!
“MacKenna was so responsive and flexible with our need for a last minute walk; ultimately, the walk was cancelled due to severe weather, but she has walked our boys in the past and we highly recommend her for your pets needs.”
“Harper was great! She knew how to handle my pittie/boxer mix, who can be a handful. She was very thorough, giving me updates and pics during and after the visit. My doggo loved her and I will definitely rebook!”
About: Married stay at home mom of 3 girls and 1 boy, who loves animals. Pre-covid I was a banquet cook for a living. I have always owned dogs( Pitts and huskys), cats, fish, rats, rabbits, turtles, bearded dragons, snakes, and other animals.. but currently have none of my own.. I'd love to watch others as a way for me to fill the void until I find another forever furpal. I live in a decent sized house with a nice yard so there is plenty of room for animals to roam and stretch their legs. I give animals all the attention they want and need. Couches and beds are free game as long as it's ok with you, I wouldn't want to upset what an animal is used to. At my place there are Treats walks and belly rubs galore. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is open and my routine can be changed to fit what your pup or other animal needs. I have no animals of my own and usually only take one family at a time for boarding and 2 families for doggy daycare unless discussed ahead of time with clients so I can match your pets normal care schedule and routine.
“Alex is reliable, dependable, and flexible dog walker. She’s been able to get our dog to go to the bathroom on walks (our dog always refused before) and to start loose leash walking. Lily loves Alex and waits at the front door for Alex to pick her up on walk days. I highly recommend Alex!”

“As a furbaby mama, there is always a heart tug when I need to leave my dog.. Kellene was just awesome how she would care and love my my dog Precious...Kellene also brought this mama joy and comfort by the updates and pictures throughout my time away from Precious. I would highly recommend her and her dog Coco....”
“Becky is the absolute best! I wish I could give a higher rating than 5 stars for her. Our older dog got sick while staying with her, and she went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of, even offering to take him to the vet while we were away on vacation. She gave us lots of updates to let us know how he was doing; communication was great. She told us when we first met that when dogs stay with her, she treats them like part of her family, and she showed us that she really means it.”
“Willow had a great time! Laura took great care of her and sent a photo every day. She got along well with Diesel, and she ate all her food, which means she was very comfortable at Laura’s house. Knowing she was doing well allowed us to enjoy our vacation more. We will definitely book Laura again!”
“Awesome communication even during a short stay! We dropped our dog with separation anxiety off with her and she was amazing. Walked him, fed him and played with him. Your dog is in good hands with Blythe! Would use her again.”
“Katrina was amazing with my dog Cannoli! She’s very knowledgeable and kind, and makes sure all the dogs in her home are comfortable and happy. I’d confidently book her again!”
“Joe and Lilly were wonderful! My dog Ruth had a great weekend with them. They were very kind, and accommodating when I had an emergency. Thank you!”
“Ashlee is amazing with Bosco and sends us pictures of him playing with all his new friends! Hes always so excited when he first sees her which makes leaving him a little bit easier ☺️”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mary and would highly recommend her!! She boarded our dog in her home for nine nights. She was extremely responsive and flexible, and sent lots of pictures with our dog playing and going on walks to his favorite places. We could tell how much she enjoys animals. Thank you for taking such good care of Auggie! 😀”
“Kelli was amazing with my dog Dusty!! She sent frequent updates throughout my time away and made me feel very comfortable through the whole process. My dog definitely loved spending time with her. Would highly recommend Kelli and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Nala Love the stay with Hannah, i quickly notice that she miss her new friend. Thank You Hannah for all you do for our furry babys. Love fam ?? Definitely recommended . 5 Star”
“Debbie was great! She was very on top of things with my pup Reggie. She set up a meet and greet ahead of time to ensure we were both comfortable with Reggie spending the night and it put my mind at ease. I completely trust her to take great care of my pup. Highly recommend!”
“I am so grateful for Teri! She took great care of turbo and provided updates that made us so comfortable leaving him! She was so prompt with responding and was soooo kind- I would definitely use Teri again! Thank you for taking such great care of turbo for the week!”
“Looking for the ONE? Erin is perfect with my 11 yr old Chihuahua! She boarded him for 6 nights, sent pictures, kept me updated every step of the way! He was comfortable with her dogs, happy, got in lots of walks and some cuddle time! She is professional, courteous, caring and really thoughtful about the needs of your pooch! Don’t hesitate to book a stay or walks with her! I highly recommend! 👍👏”
“Marilynn is THE BEST! Super loving and accommodating to our two dogs. She set pictures and updates to us daily, and included a sweet little note in their things for us to read when we picked them up. If Marilynn would take our somewhat grumpy old guy and our high octane little girl again, we would love it!”
About: As a dog lover my whole life, I wasn't able to get one of my own until a year and a half ago. Having our golden retriever Tommy has completely changed my life for the better! I absolutely love dogs of all kinds and enjoy being outdoors and playing with them. I work full time remotely, so I am extremely available and flexible to your schedule. I can accommodate any needs and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and everywhere in between. Tommy has been professionally trained and gets along great with other dogs. We are able to keep dogs in our apartment if needed, and have lots of parks and sidewalks near by for exercise. I currently work from home full time, so I am very flexible for your pets needs. I currently keep our golden retriever active (as he very much needs it!) and would love to add another dog to the bunch if needed. I live in an apartment but have lots of access to local parks and walking trails. I am available for drop-in visits and walks as well.
“Hannah was absolute perfection with Murphy over the weekend! Right from the start, her communication was fantastic—she kept us updated with regular check-ins, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. I felt 100% confident and safe leaving Murphy in her care, knowing he was receiving so much attention and love. He came home happy and well-cared for. We will definitely be reaching out to Hannah again for our next trip!”
“Julia was so great with my Buzz! She sent plenty of pictures and videos and kept me updated while I was away for the weekend. I will absolutely be requesting her services again and would recommend her to anyone! Thanks again!”
“Tyler is great! Very communicative and helpful with all my dog’s special needs and quirks. He has great dog energy and my dog is always soo happy to see him ☺️ I will always recommend Tyler to any friend needing a dog-sitter.”
“So kind and accommodating. It was great that she had a dog as it helped mine feel at ease. Sara asked for a meet & greet to make sure we were on the same page. Thank you for taking him to the dog park, his favorite place to be. Will definitely ask to rebook with her if needed on my next visit. Thank you Sara!”
