Max is accommodating and was happy go alloys my pup to relax on the furniture and most importantly sleep/snuggle up in bed at night. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to Max gor dog sitting.”
“She is absolutely the best sitter I’ve used. Her children and her dogs were perfect for Zoe. She has a large fenced yard giving Zoe lots of room to play. I think Zoe thinks I’m totally boring now. LOL I’m so grateful Rebecca sent me updates and pictures. She’s the best!”

“Karen & Troy + Kids are extraordinary dog sitters that spoil my pup with holiday treats and an abundance of love. My pup always seems to have enjoyed himself and is worn out whenever I pick him up. I highly recommend this family to anyone in need of a sitter as I know your fur baby will be in the best of care and will receive the necessary cuddles it needs.”

“Leandrea is a real Rover rockstar! From the first time we met her we knew our beloved kitty Louie would be in great hands. Leandrea goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is fed, cared for, played with, and loved in a professional and friendly manner. She provided detailed updates with plenty of cute photos to let us know how our Kitty was doing the entirety of the time she watched him. I can’t recommend Leandrea enough, she was truly fantastic. Thank you so much again Leandrea!!”
About: I have had cats my entire life, and my current cat, Lily, has been with me since I was 5 years old. Lily is now 17.5 years old and has severe hearing loss and medication requirements, and I split the responsibility of caring for her with my mother. I am comfortable caring for cats of all ages with varying care requirements.
“Mary is a great communicator - she let me know when she was at my house and sent pics during her visit. Overall, she was a caring, attentive friend to my furries! I would absolutely partner with Mary again. 😊”
About: Hi, I’m Ashling! I love all animals, and cats hold a very special place in my heart. I’ve been caring for cats since middle school, when I started out as the go-to neighborhood cat sitter. Today, I am the first-choice caregiver for my family and friends whenever they travel and need someone to keep their kitties safe, comfortable, and content. I understand that cats are creatures of habit and can be sensitive to changes in their environment or routine. My primary goal is to minimize their stress and ensure they feel secure while you're away.
About: I am new to Milwaukee and look forward to providing reliable, professional care for your pet. I offer drop-in visits and house sitting for cats in your home. You can expect a free Meet & Greet with all new clients so we can review your cat's routine, go over your expectations and decide if I am a good fit for your needs. Visits include feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime or companionship based on your cat's personality, medications if needed, and photo updates after each visit. Please reach out with any questions!
“Vanessa is an AMAZING pet sitter ?♥️ I was apprehensive about getting a new pet sitter for my cat, Milo, as we had recently moved to Florida. Milo warmed right up to Vanessa and I loved how she kept me informed about her visits with him. Vanessa is very professional, courteous and friendly so do not hesitate to hire her!”
“Heather was great with Boots! She checked in as scheduled and sent pictures. This was the longest I left Boots, and felt very comfortable knowing that Heather was there to check on him.”
“Kristy did a great job caring for my kitty. She was prompt and clear with all our communications, starting with the first meeting, and was very pleasant to work with. I'll definitely contact her again next time.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my cats received. Courtney was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away—I would absolutely recommend Courtney to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.”
“Marilia's second visit. She's great. Real cat person. Good communication and photos throughout the visits. Five star sitter. Very nice and friendly. I'll be booking again 😺”
“I truly cannot recommend her enough! She took such amazing care of my dog, Frankie, and went above and beyond in every way. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about Frankie and wasn’t just checking off a list of tasks. She even took Frankie on a long walk that wasn’t expected, just because she wanted to, and I know Frankie loved every minute of it. Coming home knowing my dog had been so well cared for meant everything to me. Frankie can be particular, and I don’t trust many people with her, but after this experience, I honestly don’t want anyone else watching her if she’s available. She treated Frankie like her own, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you so much! ❤️🐾”
“With my travel schedule for work it is hard to plan ahead and Sarah has been so accommodating with my schedule and taking on watching Flossy it gives me a sense of security knowing she is there for me. She is a great communicator and she is someone that really loves her job. I couldn’t be more satisfied as a customer with Rover and Sarah is the sole reason for that.”
“Michele was FANTASTIC! I had so much confidence in her, she has extensive experience with dogs, cats and small animals that I knew my pets were in great hands! She was so thorough and responsive with visits and our pets seemed very happy! We will definitely be reaching out to Michele again!”
“Courtney was incredible and did an amazing job watching our kitties! I’m anxious by nature and Courtney could tell I needed more reassurance while being away from our girls so she sent me tons of updates, photos, and videos! I recommend Courtney 9,000 percent!”
About: I’m a cat-focused pet sitter who is comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, including shy or nervous cats who need patience and space to warm up. I pay close attention to each cat’s normal routine and behavior. During visits, I can handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, and lots of companionship. I know how important it is for cat parents to feel updated, so I send photo updates after every visit.
About: I’ve never owned a cat as I used to be extremely allergic. As I’ve gotten older and I have multiple friends with cats, I’ve found out I am able to be around cats and love on them with just a daily allergy pill. With that, I’ve come to realize how much I truly enjoy taking care of them.
About: Hello! (Usually available after 5:30 pm during the week days and free on Fridays) My name is Stephane and I'm a project engineer in environmental science. I have had cats since my childhood, a mother, and a daughter I had the chance to live with for 20 years. Today, I have a cat I got from a refuge, called Juno. He was super shy and introverted due to his sad past but I can see a lot of progress in his behavior. He is some work but seeing him getting more and more free makes me happy. I have also always been with dogs and love to take them on walks and play with them. I took care daily of my roommate's dog (Kenny) in Toronto, taking him regularly on walks and dog parks. I live in North Water Street and can drive to your home to take care of your best friend(s). I'm also an aquarist and can look of your aquatic friends if you need it. I hope to see you soon and your best friend! I always start my day with a hello to Juno :) He usually comes to me claiming food like for having breakfast and we cuddle after. Which is a perfect start for having a good day. I will follow any instructions you give me to keep your pet routine as normal as possible. I will be respectful of your space and will always ensure that everything is closed and safe for your pet. I can send you updates with photos if you need them.

“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!”
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.
“Dan and Holly watched our puppy, Roxy, for 4-5 days when we went on a trip to AZ a few weeks ago. My husband, two boys, and I knew that Roxy would be taken care of and be well loved! Of course we missed her while we were gone, but Dan and Holly are great communicators and sent pictures and messages to assure us that Roxy was doing well! Roxy LOVES spending time with Dan, Holly, and the dogs!”
“We are traveling and needed someone to watch Ginger for the day. Miranda calmed mom’s nerves down since this was the 1st time for this. Miranda gave us updates and the whole experience was delightful.”
“This was first experience with a sitter as well as our puppy's first time with a sitter, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We appreciated the love, attention, and updates. He was well cared for, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. Thank you for taking good care of him Max.”
“Markie and Logan came home smiling and tired, which is really all I ask. they had a blast playing with all of the other dogs, and Logan didn't want to come inside from Joe's back yard!”
About: For over forty years we’ve always had dogs in our home. We have a sweet pitbull mix that we adopted last year. She came from a home with several dogs so she loves to meet and make new friends. We enjoy providing a good home to animals and we look forward to caring for your pets. Potty breaks can be provided every two hours. Your dog will have plenty of opportunities throughout the day to run, play fetch, or explore in our fenced backyard. We try to follow the same routine as you would for your pet at home. We only care for two dogs at a time as we have a dog of our own. The dogs have free run of the house if the owner doesn’t specify otherwise.
“Mandi was great! Good communication and pics and videos during the visit. Would definitely recommend Mandi and will look for her availability next time I need a Rover sitter for my dog”
“Elba was amazing with my little 9 mo. old anxious dog. It was her first time in doggy daycare and Elba was up for the challenge. She had very useful observations and connected well with my little girl, making her feel much more comfortable. We had a great experience!”
About: I love any type of dog, any type of dog is welcome in my home for caring, people I know describe me as a nice loving person . I work from home on my own time, I am self employed, dog sitting will fit in my schedule routine just perfectly right to welcome any dog. Anything the owner does for the care of there dog fits right in with me, communication on how you would like for me to take care of your dog is the key, I would love for your dog to feel right at home .
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats going back to childhood. I have been actively pet sitting for 5+ years and have experience with puppies and kittens, seniors, and pets with special needs. I have also cared for rabbits and am very flexible and willing to learn! I am a teacher, so I am free most of the summer to watch your pet and give them some love! September -May I am still available but with less flexibility I enjoy drop ins and walks so I can give pets attention and care while in their own comfortable environment. I can also watch dogs at my home for those who need overnight visits, but dogs MUST be cat friendly/neutral without history of chasing cats
About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI and figured I’d give my fur baby some friends to hang with. I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, I now live in a home with a nice backyard. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.
“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.”
“Our dog had an awesome day with Louise! She was great with little Stuart and so easy to work with for us. She accommodated a long day with our schedules and is so kind. She gave our dog personal care and very loving for our needy little puppy. We plan to book with Louise again, can’t recommend her enough!”
“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.”
“Wendy is the absolute best! Professional, always gives so much love to my Dexter and all her other doggie pals that come over. She gives plenty updates and pictures to assure you that your fur baby is having the time of his his/her life! She’s the best and so friendly and loving. Safety is a big concern of mine. As I’m an over protective dog mom. Quality 10/10 safety 10/10 communication 10/10 and flexibility with scheduling 10/10.”

About: I am a lover of all animals (dogs, cats, snakes, you name it) and have always owned cats. I've regularly dogsat for family members while they're on vacation, but my cat Lily does not get along well with dogs, so I have never had one personally. I am very active and outdoorsy, and would make sure your furbabies remain active and happy while they're being cared for by me. I am comfortable caring for animals who may require a little extra love, as my family cat Lily is a senior girl who requires twice daily medication. I work a part-time service industry job, so I am always available before 3pm on weekdays, and do not tend to work very long shifts on any day of the week other than Saturday. My schedule varies every week, but I would not accept a job for days that I will be working too much. My family cat, Lily, is 17.5 years old with severe hearing loss and a twice daily medication. I regularly medicate her and ensure she is happy and healthy throughout the day, and would do the same with your furbabies.
About: What sets me apart is my hands on experience as a dog foster, which has given me the ability to care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to new routines quickly and helping pets feel safe and settled in a new environment. I provide calm, attentive, in home care where pets are treated like family. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, whether that includes feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time, or extra play and attention. I’ve cared for both high energy dogs who need structure and exercise, as well as more anxious or relaxed dogs who need a calm, comforting space. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and at home while their owners are away and to keep owners updated so they can feel at ease. My schedule is flexible, I work part time and I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I’m typically home most of the day, so pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I can adjust my daily routine around the pets in my care and make sure their needs are met on a regular schedule. I provide care in a calm, clean, and pet friendly home where safety and comfort are the top priority. Pets are supervised throughout the day and are never left unattended for long periods. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any specific instructions from the owner. I introduce pets slowly into my home to help them feel comfortable and settled. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and all outdoor breaks are always supervised. Inside, pets have a cozy, relaxed environment where they can rest and feel at home. Pets are welcome on furniture if that is allowed by their owner, so they can stay as comfortable as they are in their own home. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, especially during the adjustment period. My goal is to create a safe, low stress, loving environment, and I provide regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing.
“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”
About: I have a way with animals. Pets that don't like people typically tend to be my best friends. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My goal is to be friends with every animal I meet. You have fun and I will make sure your pet does as well. I work full time in sales, so I am quite flexible. I can typically work my schedule to fit around what I need to do. I am happy to drop in and hung out with your pet while you are away. I love to go for walks, so I will be happy to tire a pet out with some good walk time.
About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I provide the exercise, affection, and midday relief they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Currently I’m working part time only on the weekends, so I have all the time during the week to care for your pets! Mornings, afternoons, and nights. My pets live the best life in my home! In your home trust me I will care for them as my own. I will follow whatever instructions you give me.
“Thank you for the short notice walks, you have been great and it was so nice to get updates on Gus throughout his walk. Thanks again and I look forward to booking with you again!!!!”
“Leandrea always provides stellar service and communication no matter what she does. We had Leandrea stay in our house and used her walking services. Each time she was awesome in both caring for my scared dog and with communication!”
“Mary has been so helpful and supportive the last two weeks. I had a couple of deaths in my family and Mary was able to walk my dog and check in on her when I had to fly home for a funeral. She’s so sweet and thoughtful and it was so great to know my pup was being so well taken care of! She’s the best ❤️”
About: I’ve been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for as long as I can remember. From dogs and cats to caring for pets with unique personalities and needs, animals have always been a huge part of my life. Currently, I share my home with a lovable, mischievous hound mix who keeps me on my toes and a cat who completely stole my heart. A few years ago, I lost my soul dog, Jersey, and that experience deepened my understanding of the special bond we share with our pets. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave them behind and trust someone else with their care. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, affection, attention, and plenty of love. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, a walk, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and communication throughout my visits. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that often allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet care needs throughout the day. I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care and building a trusting relationship with both you and your pets. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and becoming someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand! 🐾❤️ I work from home and have a decently flexible schedule. I have a young son and pets of my own but thankfully I share these responsibilities with my rockstar husband so I will be able to care for your fur babies. I understand that having a stranger in your home can be a little uncomfortable. I will 💯 respect your space and keep things clean in order for your while you are gone. Please let me know your preferences for my stay.
“Bernice is very kind and easy going- I never used rover so she helped me understand the process. She was great about coming at the time agreed upon and took great care when walking my dog!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. Recently, my husband and I, lost our beautiful friend, Freckles. She was 14.5 years old. I am retired, and want to help people who struggle with finding someone reliable to care for their furry friends. I've been there! I'm currently working 1 to 2 days per week, very part time hours. Would like to be with dogs occasionally, since my husband and I are not going to get another pet at this time in our lives. I do have a fenced in backyard, not sure if I will be doing daycare or overnights at my house right now. New to Rover, so want to start our with dog walking and dog house visits.
“Julie was great with my elderly dog! She was kind and personable and always cheerful! I appreciated her taking such good care of Rogue and walking her in treacherous conditions like ice and snow! I’d definitely recommend her and use her services again :)”
About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs of many different breeds, and loved them all. Let me help out with your pet and they’ll probably like me too! Currently I have sporadic trips planned until I start classes at the end of August, then my availability will greatly differ but I’m not sure of the exact hours. I can’t care for pets in my home due to one of my cats being very unfriendly, but I will take great care in your home if necessary!
About: Nothing probably sets me apart from other sitters. I always carry a mini journal and pen around with me to jot down notes or things I need to remember, especially if there are specific instructions, like dietary or playtime needs for pets. I usually am the one who takes my family dog for a walk every day since I'm the only one in my family who has the most amount of free time on their hands. If I ever dog sat for a friend's pet in my home, I usually don't really change my routine but add the necessary care requirements for both dogs. When I'm staying over at a friend's or family member's house while watching their pet, I still do a similar routine when I'm at home, but I stay on high alert and make sure I don't leave snacks or anything I bring anywhere the dog can reach.
“Alexis was very accommodating right from the beginning! Not only was she able to fit me in the same week while meeting my dog prior, but she made sure to let me know when she was arriving to my apartment along with sending a picture at the end. I would definitely recommend and plan to use her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.
About: My house has 2 cats and 1 little dog. They are all dog friendly for dog boarding. I have had a cat for over 10 years and I have dog sat for family friends for 7 years. I love all animals and lots of them. I love playing with dogs, and taking them for walks. I can drive and have my own car. I have dog sat for many of my co workers and they are all repeat customers. I dog sit them 3 times a year. I don’t do anything for holidays so I am available during the hard to book times. I don’t have many people on here so if you would like one of my references off this site just let me know. Otherwise if you have anymore questions just message me. I work full time in Brookfield and live in Milwaukee. I also do week stays over night at your house. I will try my best to make my schedule fit what your dogs/cats need. I love caring for your pets in your home because I want the time you are gone to be smooth and stress free for your pets. I will so anything you tell me that will help your dog be relaxed and calm when you are gone.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so I understand how stressful it can be to find someone to take care of your pets while you’re away or even just gone for the day at work. Our pets are the whole world to us so it’s important you find someone you trust. I hope that once you get to know me I can be that person for you! I have over 13 years experience as I have been around animals my whole life. I love learning their little personalities the things they love whether it’s going for a walk and they have a specific fire hydrant they always stop at or a specific toy at home they always love to play with. Currently I have a cat named Stella who has provided me lots of experience in anxious cats as well as in tricks on giving medication. I am currently a substitute teacher with the summer off so I can provide pop in visits throughout the week as well as the weekends! Safety of pets is my number one priority with your pets as well as my own. I will always care for your pet like they are my own when I am with them to ensure they have adequate care. I will get to know your pet and notice when things may seem off if they aren’t feeling well. I also maintain safety when walking with your pet and making sure to learn their temperament before walks as well.

“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!”

“She is absolutely the best sitter I’ve used. Her children and her dogs were perfect for Zoe. She has a large fenced yard giving Zoe lots of room to play. I think Zoe thinks I’m totally boring now. LOL I’m so grateful Rebecca sent me updates and pictures. She’s the best!”
“We are incredibly thankful that we found Daniel! He made us and our sweet puppy feel like family from our first meeting, to the drop off, and the week long stay. He took great care of our beloved Sadie and we will definitely book with him again.”
“Stella stayed with Dawn and her family for a few days. Overall, the stay sounds like it went well. She has a nice fenced yard for her to run and play ball. They communicated and sent pictures and were quick to respond to messages.”
“Karen & Troy + Kids are extraordinary dog sitters that spoil my pup with holiday treats and an abundance of love. My pup always seems to have enjoyed himself and is worn out whenever I pick him up. I highly recommend this family to anyone in need of a sitter as I know your fur baby will be in the best of care and will receive the necessary cuddles it needs.”
“Tracy watched our two aussies for a week and Tracy was so communicative, sending us updates the whole week. The dogs looked happy and she did a great job acclimating them to the other dogs that were staying as well. We will definitely book again!”
“Oh boy! What a special stay for Bud - his 8th birthday!! Thank you for the party and birthday treats and the great video and photos of the celebration! You are all the best folks and pups! I love how you treat Bud like one of your own! See you soon!”
“Carly's 1st stay with Debbie was fantastic! Carly got a lot of attention and exercise. We rec'd updates & pictures and any doubt I had was totally erased! I will definitely be taking Carly back to Debbie for our next vacation without any hesitation!”
“Yshonda was such a kind and knowledgable sitter for Poppy. She was great at managing Poppy’s medication schedule and sent cute videos throughout her stay! Poppy came home happy along with a goodie bag of doggie gifts, she’s already looking forward to her next sleepover with Yshonda!”
“Tyler was really warm and welcoming! He treated Tilly and marigold great, played with our Tilly monster and cuddled with our pretty girl Marigold. He gave them plenty of play time and seems like such a joyful guy! Would really look forward to his help in the future if and when needed!”
“Katrina is wonderful. She was a great sitter for our dog for an extended vacation and we really appreciated her care. We didn’t worry about Abbey at all. Abbey was obviously happy at Katrina’s house and loves to hang out with her dogs! Thanks so much Katrina!”
“Marilynn is such an amazing dog sitter! She was so welcoming and loving to my Maizey. Maizey can be anxious and Marilynn made her feel so comfortable in her home, especially around other dogs. It was a great experience for me and the dog! We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“This is the second time that Alyssa watched my dog, Rosie. Once again, she and her family were wonderful, and they gave Rosie such amazing, loving care. Thanks, Alyssa!”
“Siena had the best time and came home very happy and relaxed. Angela was so kind, responsive and professional. She sent multiple photos and updates. I highly recommend her and her delightful dog Zoey.”
“Flex was happy to have stayed with Mary. We received multiple pictures of their activities. Mary's very communicative. Would use her again and recommend to others.”
“Blythe was an incredible sitter and went above and beyond caring for my nervous little guy! She even bought him a new toy and replenished his food when I didn’t provide enough for an extended stay! I was so nervous about leaving my dog for the first time and I was so glad I chose Blythe. She sent so many pictures and updated me frequently. Anyone in the area should consider her first!”
“Lacey was an amazing dog sitter! This was our first time leaving our 1year old lab and she handled him with such grace. We received so many updates and videos throughout the weekend. She took such great care of him - he came home as though nothing had changed. Dune was also such a wonderful pup companion. I would rebook again and again!”
