Karen was amazing with my dog! She has a nice outdoor pen where hers and the dogs she’s sitting for can run around and enjoy some play time. When it comes to the night, she has individual heated pens so your fur baby can have their own private space. She sent me pictures and my dog looked like he was having the time of his life! I will definitely be booking Karen in the future if I’m ever in town again!

I recommend planning ahead and communicating clearly, as the staff here are busy professionals. They were very accommodating when a change of plans prevented me from picking up my dog before an incoming storm. They patiently waited for me until the next day, and Canelo was returned safe and sound. Thank you Rissa and Dan.

Angela was very nice and her dog was the sweetest doggy. Both of them greeted our Jessie as long lost relative, made him feel welcome. Our old dog was happy, had good time staying with them. We got updates with pictures. Angela even baked some yummy doggy treats and sent Jessie home with a goody.

First time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier with Taylor! Our 1 year old , first time being away from home golden retriever cried the whole way home when we picked him up… I think he missed her and all the friends he made there! 😆 Taylor was great about sending pictures and had great communication. You can tell she just loves what she does! If I could give over 5 stars I would!

Cassandra far exceeded our expectations! This was the first time leaving our puppy with someone so we were nervous at first, however, the second we met Cassandra we were at ease. You could tell immediately how much she loved dogs. She sent us pictures and videos throughout the stay and we could tell she loved him as if he were her own. My puppy seemed so happy and content with her. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone! She was amazing!

She asked me lots of questions about my dog before agreeing to take her, which made me feel confident this would be a good fit. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with Mya again in the future.

Tammy and her family were amazing! Eli loved running around in the big fenced yard and playing with Ranger. He felt right at home and was napping on the couch in no time. We enjoyed getting updates when we were away and felt confident that Eli was in good hands. Very experienced family of pet sitters. Would recommend and hope they are available again to watch Eli.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their routine, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every dog with care and patience. I maintain a very flexible routine and am home the majority of the day. I do volunteer a few hours daily, but I’m otherwise available to care for pets, provide attention, and keep them on their normal schedule. Dogs in my care will have a stable environment, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every dog in my care. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel at home.

About: I've taken care of and owned many dogs over the years. I have had pets all of my life, dogs, cats, fish, turtles, guinea pigs...you name it! Neighbors, friends and family have continuously entrusted my wife and I to care for their pets. We will board only one family’s dog(s) at a time so you can be sure they get the attention they need. Our four kids are age 7-13 and will also provide extra attention and playtime for your dog. With six in the household you can rest assured knowing your dog will have attention at all times. Our 4 acre yard provides ample space for leashed exploring and there is abundant wildlife in the area providing new smells to investigate. Your dog will be walked a minimum of once in the morning and once at night with bathroom breaks every 2-4 hours or as needed. During the week my wife and I have the ability to work from home to provide care for your dog during the day. We do require dogs to potty trained and not have a history of aggression. They also need to be trained to not chew on non toys unless they are still puppies which we fully understand and can work with! We look forward to having an opportunity to meet you and keeping you pets well loved! No matter what our day looks like, there is always someone available to provide the attention and consistency of car for your dog(s), which is the number one priority. We also have a furnished basement that can be closed off if needed. Or a quiet capped garage and workshop room depending on the sleeping arrangements your dog is accustomed to. If you could please let me know of any special needs your dog may require or want.

About: I am a very positive and outgoing person. I believe in the old-fashioned way of doing things and treating people. I have lots of experience taking care of numerous cats and dogs. I grew up living in the country and we always had lots of outdoor cats and a couple inside. Learning what treatments to give them and the right kind of food is very important to me. Along with this I have had a couple of dogs. Taking time on walk every morning was the best way to start my day. I currently have a puppy so I am very fresh on puppy training and tricks. I have an open schedule Monday through Friday and some weekends depending on what is going on. I currently travel with my boyfriend who works on the road so I have lots of time to spend with your furry friends. I will always keep a close eye on your pet as if they are my own. They are just as important as young children and must be watched and played with as such.

About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.

About: I’m new to this site, but I have had the pleasure of owning several dogs. I have dealt with multiple dog personalities, so i'd say I have the knowledge to address many types of dogs. I am a very active person, so I would be glad to give your dog a workout. I look forward to seeing my furry counterparts! I am available to dog walk/ take care of pets during the week day, after 9 pm. On Friday and Saturday, I am able to pet sit. On Sunday, I am able to offer any service aside from pet sitting or pet boarding. I am able to feed, provide water, bathe, and walk pets. I am also able to brush pets, and play with them. If the pets come to my house, and the weather is not cooperating, I have space for them to safely and comfortably reside in.

About: Hi! My name is Ryley! I’ve had pets of my own since I was 6 years old, and have been caring for them since. I started helping others care for their animals since I was about 12 years old, and do obedience training on the side. I currently have no traditional employment, and am home basically at all times. I like to go for regular walks and can bring your pet with me, as well as help with bathroom breaks while you’re at work, or vet visits when you’re busy! I have an open yard with a fenced in dog park within a 5 minute walk. I have a crate available, and extra rooms if the animal doesn’t enjoy crates.

Derek was flexible and my dogs loved him. 1 of my dogs has a lot of anxiety & I assumed would stay hid from him the whole time. She’s had no problems warming up to him. (She still even barks at my brother, sometimes.) I recommend & we look forward to seeing Derek again.

About: I have had 5 years (minimum) experience with all types of animals, giving me a vast knowledge of pets and any special care involved. My experience includes small and large dogs, horses, reptiles, and exotic animals. One of my favorite activities would be training, watching them develop and closely inspecting for any concerns. I like to stay healthy and fit making longer walks fun and easy along with playing outside. I recently moved to the area with my boyfriend from out of state! I currently do not have a job which gives me plenty of free time for your fur baby! I live in an apartment complex that has special amenities for animals, such as a dog park. Although, I do live on the second floor of the building which could be a challenge for elderly dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Family and friends rely on me to watch their dogs overnight, feed and give them love. I’m currently not working, so I will have tons of time to play and care for your pups. I’m available for boarding through out the week. I can give your dogs walks and have plenty of time for play. I would give your dog the same love as if it was my own.

About: I own two high energy dogs, Josie and Stella, both raised from puppies, so I know how stressful puppy parenting can be. Growing up on a farm surrounded by animals is where I developed my love for caring for them, and it’s where I learned responsibility. We often head to the farm for extra playtime and walks, so your pup will have plenty of fun, exercise, and love no energy left behind! I’m currently in school for respiratory therapy, so I’ve cut back on my hours. I work most weekends 2-10:30. Then a few shifts throughout the week occasionally. Other than that, I’m pretty available around my work and school schedule, and I can’t wait to care for and love your animals! I have two friendly, high energy dogs who love to play! While we don’t have a fenced yard, we’re lucky to have country property with plenty of space to walk around the fields.

About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.

About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.

About: Hi! My name is Mikayla, and I have a lifelong passion for animals and their care. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. In addition to pet sitting and daily care, I work with dogs on basic obedience and agility training using positive reinforcement methods. I enjoy helping dogs build confidence, learn good manners, and have fun while staying active. I also provide dog grooming services on the side, which has given me experience handling dogs in a calm, safe, and patient manner. Because of my grooming background, I am comfortable recognizing when a dog may be stressed, anxious, or in need of extra care and attention. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, training, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, and I strive to make their time with me as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. Why Pet Parents Choose Me 🐾 Experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds 🐾 Basic obedience and agility training experience 🐾 Dog grooming experience 🐾 Patient, calm, and reliable care 🐾 Regular photo and text updates 🐾 Plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention 🐾 Treat every pet like family I have trained dogs and love being around them and want others to be doing there normal life and have there pet in good hands I will always make sure to have the client make sure I know what I'm doing before they go and I feed my dogs train every day so I know how to do things and make it the beat experience I can

Karen was amazing with my dog! She has a nice outdoor pen where hers and the dogs she’s sitting for can run around and enjoy some play time. When it comes to the night, she has individual heated pens so your fur baby can have their own private space. She sent me pictures and my dog looked like he was having the time of his life! I will definitely be booking Karen in the future if I’m ever in town again!

I recommend planning ahead and communicating clearly, as the staff here are busy professionals. They were very accommodating when a change of plans prevented me from picking up my dog before an incoming storm. They patiently waited for me until the next day, and Canelo was returned safe and sound. Thank you Rissa and Dan.

First time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier with Taylor! Our 1 year old , first time being away from home golden retriever cried the whole way home when we picked him up… I think he missed her and all the friends he made there! 😆 Taylor was great about sending pictures and had great communication. You can tell she just loves what she does! If I could give over 5 stars I would!

About: I’ve been taking care of cats, dogs, farm animals (chickens, goats), fish, and exotic animals since I was 18. There’s no animal too big or too small! I’ve provided both day and night care, and handled meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, and cleaning. Hello!! I am a soon to be stay-at-home momma who will have lots of available time to watch/play with/or walk your furry friends! I currently have a dog and a cat of my own but they are very friendly and loving with all animals big or small. I would love to board your animals in my home! But, they must be friendly with both dogs and cats as I have one of each who are very sweet and get along with everyone! All supplies will need to be dropped off with your furry friend as well as I don’t have extra kennels (if your pup uses one) or extra supplies.
