“Stacy welcomed my dog into her house and treated him as her own. Rudy loved playing and snuggling with her family! She communicated well and made sure she understood his needs. I will use Stacy again.”
“Brandi was wonderful from drop off to pick up. Lots of updates on our pup while we were gone on a week vacation. He is still a puppy and lots of energy so we were glad he could be with someone in their home while we were away. Definitely would recommend.”
About: Friendly, warm, and welcoming. I have plenty of indoor and outdoor space to roam in my home plus a fenced in backyard. I've had dogs in the home since I was child and have been caring full-time for my dog for 7 years. I have previous experience with in-home boarding for some of my co-workers and have cared for dogs with nervous bladders. I currently work full time, but am always home in the evenings for plenty of playtime and walks. I can be flexible with pick up and drop off times with at least a day's notice to work with your schedule. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space to roam inside my home. Dogs are welcome on the furniture or in bed if they need some extra cuddle time. I can crate your dogs if needed during the day and my own pup is crate trained for while I'm away.
About: My husband and I are frequently taking care of our grand pups! Both 4 years old. We treat them like our own. One’s a chocolate lab, the other is a dachshund. I am an early riser. I get my morning exercise done then am pretty free the rest of the day. With the exception of an occasional appointment here and there. We do not have a fenced yard but would do daily walks. We have a path near our home. We also have lots of dog toys.
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.”
“Clarissa really looked after our dog while we were on vacation for 8 days. She picked him up and ripped him off. He came back looking healthy and relaxed. Much better than boarding. Will use her services again in future.”
About: I've been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. I currently have one nine year old Chihuahua mix on seizure medicine twice a day. We have a fenced in yard with a chain link fence perfect for letting your dog run around. I am usually up by 5am to go for a run or cycle. I work from home regularly so I can be flexible with letting the dogs out. I have a fenced in yard with one friendly dog of my own to keep your dog company. I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on the pups if I do need to run out.
About: I’ve handled dogs of all ages, young puppies to senior dogs. I’ve always had a dog in my home, and love fostering puppies/dogs as well through a local rescue. Have a fenced in yard for a pup that wants to play, along with having dogs of different sizes that would be a great play companion as well. I will be the one handling all the care for your pup. Starting to get into boarding and walking, working full time at the moment and possibly moving into part time work. Able to play with pups after work, will also do so around my part time hours. Our fenced in yard is nice and big for pups to play around in. With the fenced in yard and playmates for your pup, they’ll have so much fun at my house. We crate at night for safety, and love to give treats and bones to pups that are allowed to have them.
“Chanse was fantastic. She took good care of our recently adopted dog. Our dog is very timid, but became comfortable there very quickly and seemed to be really happy. I highly recommend Chanse and her family to watch your loved pets.”
“Heather took fantastic care of our dog while we were away. She sent us pictures and updates and made sure our dog got outside to enjoy plenty of exercise. It felt like our pup was part of her family. I would highly recommend reaching out to Heather if you’re looking for a quality Rover!”
“Rosie was happy when I picked her up. The next morning she was back to her usual self. With some other sitters, it can take one to three days for her to be back to her usual self. So just from that I’d say Alyssa did a nice job.”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“Mary and her husband are absolutely wonderful caregivers! I received daily updates about my Ivy and they were very sweet, loving and caring with her. I highly recommend Mary to anyone who needs to be able to trust 100% that their fur babies will be well cared for!”
“Bella Rose was very happy with her temporary home and her caregivers. The setting is great for walks in the woods and peace and quiet. Jeffrey was a great host and we felt confident in his care for Bella.”
“They were very kind . They sent pictures to my phone (while I was gone) showing her walking, eating, or napping. I felt comfortable leaving my dog baby with them.”
About: I had a golden-lab for 6 years until we lost him to cancer earlier this year. My kiddos and I miss him a ton and would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby until we are ready to get another dog of our own. I work fully from home so I have a lot of flexibility all week and any weekends we are home/available as well. I am confident your pet would have LOTS of love and attention! I have a nice fenced in yard and great neighborhood available for daily walks. We have a great safe space to care for your pet!
“There are no words to express how thankful we are. Traci and her family made our family feel completely at ease while we were away for the very first time. This was our first experience leaving our baby with someone else, and trusting another family to care for him was a big step for us. Traci and her family treated our boy as if he were their own. She kept us updated, which we deeply appreciated, and you can see in the photos just how comfortable and safe he felt. That alone gave us so much peace of mind. For anyone considering care, we highly recommend Traci and her family. They are truly the best. And their dog, Wilfred — the cutest, kindest boy ever — made the experience even sweeter.”
About: I’ve covered private care, dog walking, training, vet settings and grooming over the past 20 years. Currently I’m the lead groomer at a local doggie daycare specializing in behavioral rehabilitation. This means dogs in my care get folded into my pack and taken along for our day. We have a 1/3 of an acre to relax on and can reinforce training or loose leash pack walks during their stay. As I work with dogs full time, we can easily fold 1-2 dogs into our daily routine. Structured feed times, crate rotation, daily training and lots of playing in the yard are already a part of our day. Dogs can come to work with me if necessary where they will have yard access for potty breaks and a private area indoors, or stay home with my older girl who prefers the peace and quiet of sun bathing, and midday breaks for walks or time in the yard. We have a large home and yard to accommodate everyone, employ structured meal times and crate and rotate when necessary so everyone has 1-1 time at home.
“Nicole is awesome and Reggie very much enjoyed his overnight, especially getting to know Otis, the family dog. We received photo updates and communication was wonderful. Plan to definitely to stay again!”

“As always, Brandy’s care and love for Stevie and Stella was above and beyond. Brandy is #1 for me and I will always book with her due to the high level of confidence and trust that I have in her!”
“Ian was amazing with our cats! We can’t thank him enough for taking the time he took with the notes and cute pictures! Very professional and will always be booking him in the future!”
“Dawnlea is awesome with our dog and three cats. We have her do weekly drop-ins Monday through Friday. She has a calm and loving manner with our pets. She plays with and feeds them. The pictures she sends of our pets are very comforting to see them so well cared for.”
“We just got home, Zoey had a lot to say about everything, but mostly she was saying that Erica and Kayla both did a great job with her. All is well, and Zoey says to call her Rover friends the next time we go away!”
“I very much trusted and enjoyed having Bridget drop in for visits to help with our 13 yr old Yorkie. She was timely and took care of Lucy as asked for. I would certainly recommend her and I will reach out again as needed. Thank you, Bridget.”
“We could not ask for better cat sitters! They were caring, attentive, and communicative during our entire trip. They also went above and beyond for home care duties. Would definitely book again for a future trip!”
About: I have had animals and cared for animals since I was young. On top of my personal animals, I have also dog and cat sat for family friends. I have also dealt with a diabetic cat and it’s shots. I am mostly just available on Fridays after 10:30 and on the weekends. I do sometimes have the availability for an afternoon (after 4) walk or drop in. I can care for your animals as you see fit in your home and follow your standards for your animals and home. If wanting some play time with another dog, I can also bring my own dog, who loves other dogs, for some play time.
“Chanse took excellent care of our two cats during drop-in visits and sent us pictures and updates of how the visits went each time. I would definitely recommend her, and will be booking her again.”
“Kristen dropped in twice a day to feed our cat while we were out of town. She checked in with me each time she went by and even sent pictures of Jude looking fat and happy. Knowing someone was there checking on things made being away from home much less stressful. When we got home everything in the house was just as we left it and Jude was so much more chill than she usually is when we get home. Kristen was very nice and easy to make arrangements with. I would definitely recommend her and will book her again if needed.”
About: I have had cats my entire life. The house always felt more complete with a cat in it. I have 2 of my own now in adulthood, Murray and Rosie. I have cat sat for many of my friends, family, and neighbors. And I’d love to meet yours
“Danielle was so good with all three of our crazy mini dachshunds and they absolutely loved her! We will definitely be using Danielle again. Thank you so much for taking care of our weens!”
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, with a special appreciation for senior pets and those who need extra patience or consistency. One of the most meaningful experiences I've had was adopting a 12-year-old cat that developed chronic kidney disease (CKD). I cared for her through nearly four years of treatment, managing medications, hydration, appetite, weight, and daily routines until she passed away just shy of her 16th birthday. That experience taught me the importance of careful observation, consistency, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior that can indicate something isn't right. I also have experience caring for a Yorkshire Terrier and understand the unique needs of toy breeds, including their size, energy, and safety considerations. Several family members and friends have larger dogs that I take on walks and care for when they're away. Professionally, my background is in consulting and project management, which has made me highly organized, dependable, and detail-oriented. I follow instructions carefully, communicate proactively, and believe pet owners deserve regular updates and photos so they can enjoy their time away with confidence. My goal is always to care for your pets the way I would want someone to care for my own. Pet sitting fits well into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care while maintaining flexibility. I currently offer overnight house sitting, typically from approximately 7:00 p.m. until 7:00 a.m., when many pets appreciate the comfort of having someone with them overnight. During the day, I may have other work or personal commitments depending on the booking, but I always communicate my schedule in advance so expectations are clear. I strive to keep pets on their normal routines for meals, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and companionship while respecting the schedule that works best for each household. I understand how important consistency is for animals, especially seniors or pets with medical needs, and I do my best to minimize disruptions to their daily routine. I am able to pick up your animal and drop them off for an additional fee ($10 / day). When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is maintaining the environment and routines they already know. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, exercise, household rules, and any special care your pet requires. I take time to build trust with each animal, allowing shy or anxious pets to become comfortable at their own pace. Safety is extremely important to me. I pay close attention during walks, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets for changes in behavior or health, and never hesitate to contact an owner if I have a question or concern. I also treat every home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine, keeping it clean, secure, and well cared for during your absence. Communication is a key part of my service. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing and can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I grew up on a horse farm. I always had dogs for most of my life . Except when I lived in an apartment for a short time where I could not have one. My sister and I use to have fake dog shows as kids. It was so much fun. Now I have 2 loveable doggies of my own that i adopted . They love our fenced in backyard and my daughter and I walk them every day as a team.When Taylor was a toddler we would go out and visit grandma and aunt / sister and give chino her dog lots of love and walks. Also in the last 5 years my late moms dog rosie who was also adopted. Dogs are great.
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of dogs since I was just a wee one. We got our first dog when I was 2. I started taking in cats when I was a teenager. Animals just seem to gravitate towards me and we always become best friends. I am reliable, super friendly, and willing to go the extra mile for your fur babies. I work part time as a hairstylist, and hang out with doggies and kitties the other part of the time. Sometimes you might find my head in a book or on a fun diy project. I can be very accommodating to whatever your pets needs may be. I am willing to travel, take them to fun parks, and feel comfortable giving any medications to your furry little loved ones.
About: I've taken care of dogs/cats since I was little. I've helped friends who work long hours with letting their pets out, playing to burn some energy, food routines, walks as well! I've bathed my own animals, but if I get the run down of what to do. I will be able to do it. I'm a single mom/ former dsp (caregiver) so during the morning hours I have hours of free time to fill. My daughter loves animals too so she doesn't mind walking with or playing with animals either. 😊 I keep water fresh daily, make sure they get feed twice a day or how ever their feeding routine goes. I don't mind if accidents happen, always willing to clean up. Willing to change litter boxes, they don't phase me since i have my own.

“Chanse and her children (who are absolutely adorable!!!) took amazing care of Doc and Gunner. My husband and I were able to enjoy family time without worrying about our babies. Doc and Gunner enjoyed all the extra love and attention they received. Would contact Chanse again if we are back in the area with our babies. Highly recommend her if you need your dogs watched. Thank you!!!!!”

“Sarah and her pack did awesome!!! Can't thank her enough for taking in Winnie on such short notice. When I picked up Winnie I was taken back at how much Winnie had bonded with Sarah in such a short period of time. Sarah was aware of Winnie's IBD issues and updated me on how she did. I really appreciated her for that!!!! This family definitely loves dogs!!!”
“Brandi was amazing! She helped us out on short notice, took great care of our dog, and sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day. Our dog is usually very anxious, but he felt comfortable with her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We felt completely confident leaving him in her care and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”

“Absolutely amazing experience with our dog sitters! 🐾 They took such incredible care of my mini dachshunds, Nugget and Muffin, and treated them like their own. I got updates, photos, and total peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious how much they truly love animals, and my pups came home happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Nugget and Muffin can be a little spoiled and needy at times, but they were so patient, attentive, and loving with them. I honestly couldn’t ask for better people to trust with my dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitters! 💕”

My name is makenzie, I am employed a registered nurse but animals will always have my heart. I’ve grown up on a a farm my whole life and now have a small hobby farm of my own with my husband and kids. I love spending my time with animals, especially my two Great Danes at home! I have personal experience caring for my own pets and house sitting for friends and family while away. I am dog (and human :) ) CPR certified and insured. Daily, I care for my pups at home and livestock on our farm. Our doggies really love when they get to join us on our farm, which gave me the interest in offering doggy daycare at our farm so other pups can enjoy it too! Lots of smells and experiences to enjoy on a farm! I have a fenced in indoor and outdoor play area for my dogs. I leash all dogs while not in designated dog areas. Designated potty breaks, supervised play time with adequate rest as well.
“Nicole is absolutely wonderful. I came to her with a dog who was super anxious at his last sitter (to no fault of the sitter), stubborn, and a senior, and she is so understanding and kind. Ollie is vocal and set in his ways, and she was able to make his experience super positive and he really seemed to like her. I will absolutely be booking her anytime she is available, and as long as she wants Ollie back.”
“Perrin was amazing with my 6 month old ball of energy. I’ve been having a tough time adjusting to puppy mom-ing and he had some awesome tips and feedback. So helpful! My puppy had a wonderful day running around with Ava and came home happy and very sleepy. I would 100% recommend this sitter!”
“So flexible and helpful with my pup! I trust her 100% and know when I pick my dog up she will be tired from playing outside, with toys or with other dogs! I highly recommend Ashlee and will continue to use her for all of our dog sitting needs!”

Above all, my goal is to make your pet feel completely comfortable and happy in my care whether that means going for walks, getting extra snuggles, or engaging in a little positive, low-pressure training. I work part-time for my family business and have the flexibility to take my work with me anywhere. That means your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I truly love animals and make them a natural part of my daily life, it’s something that brings me a lot of joy and fulfillment I have three playful, friendly, and highly socialized dogs in my home.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have had dogs as part of my family since I was a child. Most recently, I’ve cared for our own dog for the past 13 years, giving me experience with every stage of life—from energetic puppy years to the special needs of senior dogs. In addition to caring for our own pets, I’ve welcomed dogs belonging to family, friends, and neighbors into our home. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and activity levels, and I understand that every dog has unique routines and needs. Your dog will be treated like part of our family in our clean, smoke-free home. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and our dog-friendly children love helping give pets plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment so you can feel confident your dog is well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our family’s daily routine. My husband works from home, so there’s almost always someone around during the day to provide companionship, potty breaks, and attention. In the evenings, our family is typically home together, so visiting dogs become part of our daily life and receive plenty of love and interaction. We understand how important consistency is for dogs and do our best to maintain their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, and rest. Whether your dog enjoys playing in our fenced yard, going for walks, or simply relaxing with people nearby, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for throughout their stay. We treat every dog as if they were our own and strive to make their time away from home as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences before their stay. I closely follow your instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any special care your dog may need. In our home, dogs are treated like part of the family. They have plenty of supervised time indoors, access to our fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and lots of attention throughout the day. We provide a clean, smoke-free, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and secure. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, or simply relax with people nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the care and companionship they need.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I have a 7 year old golden named bode. I am familiar with medication distribution and other restrictions. Bode was diagnosed with lymphoma at 5 and has been in remission for 2 years. I grew up with labs as well as shitzus and my dad has a 9 year old golden. I would prefer to meet any candidate prior to boarding as they will be in the same space as my golden, he’s a gentle giant and gets along with all animals. He is a service animal so I have experience in training and younger dogs as well. I work from home full time and have a lot of free time to give during the week. Weekends are busy for me at the moment but will slow down come winter. I work from home so week days are great I have a lot of flexibility for walks and play time and potty breaks. Very attentive and will have my golden to play with. Big grass area to play at but no fence, live in a townhome with lots of toys. Since I work from home I’m very attentive and responsive.
About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.
“Emily responded quickly to my request for daycare and we did a meet & greet the day before to make sure my dog Wolfie and her two dogs Gus & Bailey got along. It was perfect, all was good. The actual day of daycare Wolfie couldn’t wait to get inside Emily’s house! Wolfie played a lot and was very chill/tired for the evening. Emily is very nice and took great care of my pup! Highly recommend. Thanks Emily!!”

“I’ve used Rover in the past and after an initial meeting, have had great luck with dog walkers. Michelle is even a step above those walkers. Her kindness and patience in allowing my timid dog to get used to her slowly, over a few visits, was such a relief. Michelle’s a rockstar! 😊”

I cared for her through nearly four years of treatment, managing medications, hydration, appetite, weight, and daily routines until she passed away just shy of her 16th birthday. That experience taught me the importance of careful observation, consistency, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior that can indicate something isn't right. I also have experience caring for a Yorkshire Terrier and understand the unique needs of toy breeds, including their size, energy, and safety considerations. Several family members and friends have larger dogs that I take on walks and care for when they're away. Professionally, my background is in consulting and project management, which has made me highly organized, dependable, and detail-oriented. I follow instructions carefully, communicate proactively, and believe pet owners deserve regular updates and photos so they can enjoy their time away with confidence. My goal is always to care for your pets the way I would want someone to care for my own. Pet sitting fits well into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care while maintaining flexibility. I currently offer overnight house sitting, typically from approximately 7:00 p.m. until 7:00 a.m., when many pets appreciate the comfort of having someone with them overnight. During the day, I may have other work or personal commitments depending on the booking, but I always communicate my schedule in advance so expectations are clear. I strive to keep pets on their normal routines for meals, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and companionship while respecting the schedule that works best for each household. I understand how important consistency is for animals, especially seniors or pets with medical needs, and I do my best to minimize disruptions to their daily routine. I am able to pick up your animal and drop them off for an additional fee ($10 / day). When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is maintaining the environment and routines they already know. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, exercise, household rules, and any special care your pet requires. I take time to build trust with each animal, allowing shy or anxious pets to become comfortable at their own pace. Safety is extremely important to me. I pay close attention during walks, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets for changes in behavior or health, and never hesitate to contact an owner if I have a question or concern. I also treat every home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine, keeping it clean, secure, and well cared for during your absence. Communication is a key part of my service. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing and can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and caring for them. I have experience with dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, cleaning up after them, and spending time playing and keeping them comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic or more shy and relaxed. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while their owner is away. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. With my background as a former dog groomer and long-term experience in the pet industry, I’m very comfortable caring for animals and enjoy making them feel safe, calm, and cared for. I care for pets by following their normal routine closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any medications. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort, and I’m experienced in handling different temperaments from my time working in boarding facilities and pet care. My goal is to make pets feel safe and cared for as if they were my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of dogs since I was just a wee one. We got our first dog when I was 2. I started taking in cats when I was a teenager. Animals just seem to gravitate towards me and we always become best friends. I am reliable, super friendly, and willing to go the extra mile for your fur babies. I work part time as a hairstylist, and hang out with doggies and kitties the other part of the time. Sometimes you might find my head in a book or on a fun diy project. I can be very accommodating to whatever your pets needs may be. I am willing to travel, take them to fun parks, and feel comfortable giving any medications to your furry little loved ones.

“Brandi was wonderful from drop off to pick up. Lots of updates on our pup while we were gone on a week vacation. He is still a puppy and lots of energy so we were glad he could be with someone in their home while we were away. Definitely would recommend.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.”
“Clarissa really looked after our dog while we were on vacation for 8 days. She picked him up and ripped him off. He came back looking healthy and relaxed. Much better than boarding. Will use her services again in future.”
About: I’ve handled dogs of all ages, young puppies to senior dogs. I’ve always had a dog in my home, and love fostering puppies/dogs as well through a local rescue. Have a fenced in yard for a pup that wants to play, along with having dogs of different sizes that would be a great play companion as well. I will be the one handling all the care for your pup. Starting to get into boarding and walking, working full time at the moment and possibly moving into part time work. Able to play with pups after work, will also do so around my part time hours. Our fenced in yard is nice and big for pups to play around in. With the fenced in yard and playmates for your pup, they’ll have so much fun at my house. We crate at night for safety, and love to give treats and bones to pups that are allowed to have them.
“Chanse was fantastic. She took good care of our recently adopted dog. Our dog is very timid, but became comfortable there very quickly and seemed to be really happy. I highly recommend Chanse and her family to watch your loved pets.”
“Heather took fantastic care of our dog while we were away. She sent us pictures and updates and made sure our dog got outside to enjoy plenty of exercise. It felt like our pup was part of her family. I would highly recommend reaching out to Heather if you’re looking for a quality Rover!”
“Rosie was happy when I picked her up. The next morning she was back to her usual self. With some other sitters, it can take one to three days for her to be back to her usual self. So just from that I’d say Alyssa did a nice job.”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“Mary and her husband are absolutely wonderful caregivers! I received daily updates about my Ivy and they were very sweet, loving and caring with her. I highly recommend Mary to anyone who needs to be able to trust 100% that their fur babies will be well cared for!”
“Bella Rose was very happy with her temporary home and her caregivers. The setting is great for walks in the woods and peace and quiet. Jeffrey was a great host and we felt confident in his care for Bella.”
About: I had a golden-lab for 6 years until we lost him to cancer earlier this year. My kiddos and I miss him a ton and would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby until we are ready to get another dog of our own. I work fully from home so I have a lot of flexibility all week and any weekends we are home/available as well. I am confident your pet would have LOTS of love and attention! I have a nice fenced in yard and great neighborhood available for daily walks. We have a great safe space to care for your pet!
About: I’ve covered private care, dog walking, training, vet settings and grooming over the past 20 years. Currently I’m the lead groomer at a local doggie daycare specializing in behavioral rehabilitation. This means dogs in my care get folded into my pack and taken along for our day. We have a 1/3 of an acre to relax on and can reinforce training or loose leash pack walks during their stay. As I work with dogs full time, we can easily fold 1-2 dogs into our daily routine. Structured feed times, crate rotation, daily training and lots of playing in the yard are already a part of our day. Dogs can come to work with me if necessary where they will have yard access for potty breaks and a private area indoors, or stay home with my older girl who prefers the peace and quiet of sun bathing, and midday breaks for walks or time in the yard. We have a large home and yard to accommodate everyone, employ structured meal times and crate and rotate when necessary so everyone has 1-1 time at home.
“Nicole is awesome and Reggie very much enjoyed his overnight, especially getting to know Otis, the family dog. We received photo updates and communication was wonderful. Plan to definitely to stay again!”
“Sumer was so good with my pup! She also sent me pictures about every other day, which really helped set me at ease. She is super sweet, and I will definitely use her again! 💜”
“Ryan and his family were amazing when watching cooper! We will never go back to a boarding place after leaving cooper with them. They sent us pictures and let us know what he was doing throughout the day. We definitely be reaching back out to Ryan and his family!!”
“Marie was so amazing with our sweet pup. We were sad to leave her on Christmas Eve, but could not have found a better sitter than Marie and her family. She was well loved and even got to have some new experiences! We will definitely use Marie again 🐾🥰”
“Kristin and Bruce were fantastic. From the moment we stepped into their home they were welcoming of us and our dog, and it was obvious we made the right choice. They were loving and caring and we are certain that carried on throughout our dogs stay with them. Pictures and updates were sent and they kept to her normal routine, even when sleeping. Our dog was excited to see us again...but was torn and demanding good byes from Kristen, Bruce, and the kids (hoping to go back). Definitely a wonderful experience for us and your dog!”
“Ashley is super friendly and fantastic pet sitter. My dogs were happy and comfortable at Ashley's home. Bonus: My dogs loved hanging out with her sweet dogs. I absolutely recommend her and her home!!! I've already scheduled another visit. Highly recommend!!!”
“I truly can't say enough wonderful things about Henry's stay with Ryan and Martha's family! They were so kind and accommodating when my travel plans changed several times, and I could tell that Henry was very loved and well cared for. They sent updates and pictures throughout the week, and they were very responsive. It was the best peace of mind having him stay with them, and I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
