Highly-rated overnight sitters - Oconto
“I highly recommend Julia. From the moment we connected, her communication was clear, prompt, and thoughtful. She sent pics and updates during the stay and treated Tuco with genuine affection-like a member of her own family. Tuco came home happy, relaxed and tired. ;) Truly a joy to work with-I'll definitely book again!”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Kristin was amazing with our dog! Her family truly took care of him like he was their own. Our pup got lots of exercise, tons of snuggles and had his own vacation on the farm. Kristin sent us regular updates, so we were able to see how much fun he was having exploring their land. I’d highly recommend her care and will be bringing our dog back in the future!”
“Heather and her husband were so great with our dog, Sheeva. It was our first Rover experience and we had a wonderful experience with them. They sent photos and updates every day so we could see how she was doing and that was very much appreciated. Sheeva was a happy and tired girl when we picked her up so it was clear she had a great time. We will be booking with Heather again!”
“Oreo and Sky were well taken care of. We received photos every day. Given that Oreo is almost 15 it is important for us to use an at home person. Sky being a puppy can be a bit crazy so she needs outside time. Thank you.”
“Just wonderful! Will absolutely keep Melissa on the top of my list for the next time I need a sitter. You can tell she is knowledgeable about pet care and asks about any special needs like allergies, medications, etc. I received updates and photos while I was away, which is very reassuring. So caring and attentive. Thank you, Melissa!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! My boys were super happy when I went and saw them and Melissa gave me many updates. She was very kind and very down to earth, would absolutely recommend and will come back if I need someone to watch my dogs again!”
“Like always, Sharon and her family are the best. Sharon is very flexible and promptly responds to requests. My wife loves the photos she sends to give us updates. Thank you again”
“Excellent sitter! Updates & pictures every day. Shanna has a caregiving nature and truly in tune to animal needs and behaviors. We definitely recommend and would love future pet sitting! Thanks Shanna!”
“Jeffrey was amazing with communication from the start of booking all the way to the end of the trip. He truly eased my fears of leaving my dog for the first time ever. He took her on walks and just gave her so much love and TLC. He gave daily updates on my dog and even sent pictures. Eased my heart for sure. He was truly amazing with my dog Belle and I will definitely be using him in the future.”
“We were so happy to find Aryn on Rover to care for our dogs for a weekend away! She was especially patient with one of our dogs that experiences separation anxiety. We really appreciated her communication and care for our dogs!”
“Mackenzie did a great job making us feel at ease leaving our dog with her while we were in town for a packers game. Our dog was so excited when he met her he hardly said goodbye to us and was in a great mood when we picked him up the next day. Mackenzie was great with communication and sending photos and updates.”
“Denise and her family were great with my dog Mason. She kept communication with me the whole stay and sent a lot of pictures of Mason with her kids and their dog. It made my time away much more relaxing knowing Mason was being well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Denise and her family to anyone!”
“Great set up with the yard...friendly dogs...and Tara and her husband were very communicative. Dealing with them made you feel like they really cared and it wasn't just a job. Definitely recommend!”
“I was delighted to recently have Michelle a pet sitter for my sweet cat, Chloe. I found her extremely collaborative to work with and caring for Chloe's needs. She was also good in providing me frequent updates and pictures during the pet sitting stay. I definitely plan to use her again!”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Sara and her family provided a wonderful home for our two dogs while we were on a trip! They have a large fenced-in backyard where they could run around and play with Luna. They came home happy and pooped from all their fun. We are so grateful, and will definitely use them in the future!”
About: An LPN by trade, I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Since I was a little girl, dogs and cats have held a special place in my heart, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Anyone who knows me personally knows how deeply I love animals and how important they are to me. My own dogs are truly part of my family—they’re my babies—and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and family members regularly rely on me to watch and board their beloved pets when they travel. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for daily walks, playing, providing companionship, or simply making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When your pet is in my care, I will treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a loving, dependable, and stress-free experience for both you and your furry family member, so you can have peace of mind knowing they are receiving plenty of attention, affection, and care. As a nurse who is currently taking a break from my career, I have the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. My mornings start with potty breaks, breakfast, and plenty of love and attention for the pets in my care. After a relaxing coffee break, we head out for a daily walk, with the distance tailored to each pet’s age, energy level, and abilities—anywhere from a leisurely stroll to a 1–3 mile adventure. The rest of the day includes playtime, cuddles, companionship, and ensuring your pet feels comfortable and secure. I understand how much pet parents miss their furry family members, so I’m happy to send photos and videos to keep you updated and give you peace of mind. Afternoons are typically a time for rest and relaxation, followed by supper and another walk in the evening if needed. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, exercise, and affection. My goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable, safe, and loving as possible—just like they are part of my own family. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. While we do not have a fenced yard, I am committed to responsible pet care and will always use a leash when outdoors—without exception. I understand that pets are cherished family members, and I take every precaution to keep them safe. My home is shared with two friendly, low-key dogs who enjoy daily walks, relaxing in the sunshine, and plenty of couch cuddles. They are accustomed to being around other pets and help create a calm, welcoming environment. Whether your pet enjoys activity and adventure or prefers quiet companionship and affection, I will do my best to make them feel comfortable, loved, and right at home.
“Holly was amazing to work with! She treated our dog as one of her own and went above and beyond with sending pictures and videos throughout the stay. She will be the first person I ask the next time we need care for our dog!”

“Leaha is great! She took the extra time/effort with my newest cat who's still adjusting and very shy, and made sure my other cat got some play time in too while I was away. Great communication and timely. Will definitely check with her first next time I need a sitter.”
About: I have cared for dogs of my own as well as for family friends since I could drive myself! I have raised puppies through senior aged dogs, and have experience with dogs of all sizes! I personally have a 1 year old female Lab mix who would love friends to play with! Her name is Jane, and she is my whole world! She attends K9 basics in Peshtigo weekly, so she is very well trained and socialized. I will care for your animals like I do my own! I work full time in Marinette, but I go home every lunch break and after work for playtime and potty breaks with my dog. I work 4 days per week so weekends are wide open for full days of fun! I will follow your specific feeding and bathroom schedule to the absolute best of my ability! My dog gets at least a half hour long walk on the days she doesn’t attend daycare. Pets are welcome on the furniture, but I will respect your rules if that is not allowed for your pet.
“Carly is great! She did drop in visits with my two cats while I was out of town for 4 days. She sent me a lot of pictures and videos during her visits. The kitties were so happy when I returned home and I felt great about letting them stay in their own home!”
“Christina has been blessing for me and my cats! - She is very sweet, gentle, caring and truly takes care of your cats as her own. Although I missed my babies when I went on vacation, I knew they were well taken care of and that gave me the peace of mind I needed to relax during my trip. She updates you regularly and is very good at following instructions. She even brought some toys for my kitties! Upon my return, I came back home to happy cats and a clean home! I highly recommend Christina and would hire her again!!”
About: I’ve always loved and lived around cats since a baby, my mother was allergic but we still had a kitty growing up as did family members and I’ve always loved to play and cuddle with them!! I now have my own brown/grey tabby kitty named Aurora 💞
About: I'm a 26yo who has owned cats and dogs my entire life. Currently, I'm the parent of a very energetic husky and 2 cats. I am very active and athletic, so keeping up with a dog's energy is second nature. I love taking my pup for runs, walks, swims, and play time at the dog park. He loves to play with other dogs and can be a playmate if you wanted. I have over 20 years experience in personally caring for animals: including feeding, changing litter boxes, play time, cleaning messes, administration first aid and medications, IV injections, and keeping an eye for unusual behavior. I am caring for an animal every day of the week. I can fit in a lot given my flexible work schedule and ability to travel. Everyone has different standards for pet care, and I am open to adapting and curating care based on individuals and pet needs. I can be a great service in keeping your pet active when needed, and to help keep them calm when necessary. I know socializing and connecting are a huge need to properly care for animals, so as an animal lover I always try to find a connection with the animals I care for
“Brittany was amazing. Vader hit it off with her right away at the meet and greet, you can tell she has a genuine love for animals. Our trip had to be extended at the last minute and she was available and willing to stay on, watering plants, offering to check mail, etc. Vader was well taken care of and we would absolutely hire her again.”
About: My name is Holly, I worked as a Pet groomer for 4years. There I learned all sorts of things. From nail clippings to anal gland expressions. After my arm gave out I went to a vet clinic where I was in charge of the kennels. I have experience working with all sort of dogs at all sorts of ages with all sorts of temperaments. Some needed special attention and some where happy with just hanging out. I must say the special needs animals are my favorite. I love giving that extra care to make sure every pet I encounter feels safe and comfy. At the vet clinic I also learned various first aid techniques. I love animals more than I love people. I'm pretty flexible and don't mind bending my time slots in order to accommodate your 4legged friend.
“She came on time and followed the instructions we left. I liked that she was willing to come and meet us and the cats before the pet sitting appointment so the cats were somewhat familiar with her before she started. My only disappointment was she had promised to send a couple pictures before she left in the morning, but I didn’t receive them. She could have been rushed for time depending on what was going with the cats and it could have slipped her mind as things happen . I would hire her again though.”
“Sara has been a blessing for my cat and I. My cat used to be very anxious when I come home due my work hours; however, since having Sara's drop-ins she is very calm, sweet and playful when I come home-!!. Sara is very sweet and has a calm demeanor. She follows the given instructions , responds to messages on time, send you awesome pictures and videos and you can tell she tries to take care of your pet like one of her own. I would highly recommend her!!”
About: My family has had dogs, cats, and other small pets since I can remember. From helping a cat give birth to raising a litter of puppies when the mother stopped feeding them, I have lots of experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve also cared for guinea pigs, hamsters, and parakeets. I do work full time, but I am off every other weekend and am flexible with the weekdays that I’m off. I do have dogs myself, so pet care is already very integrated into my routines. I have an open yard, but it is surrounded by a hay field and across from a dairy farm. The road is mostly only traveled by farm vehicles, who are used to watching out for chickens or any other animals on the road. I also have 3 friendly dogs of varying energy levels who do not leave the yard and will keep your pets company! No pet, however, will be left outside unsupervised. As for indoors, we have an open living room/kitchen area and lots of toys. There is plenty of room for even a large crate if needed.
About: I have extensive experience working with pets, including caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, and ensuring their overall well-being. I currently work in my profession with animals on the daily.

I want to provide a safe, clean and comfortable environment for your pet to thrive!! I always find plenty of time to spend with fluffy friends throughout my day and week! My schedule is extremely flexible and I am able to work with your preferences! I am able to travel to your residence to provide the most comfortable care for your animals where they feel at home!

“Thank you for watching our two young basset hounds. We were able to go golfing on our door County vacation thanks to Julie. She sent regular photos and updates which I highly appreciated.”
“Melissa was wonderful! Her family was incredibly sweet, and my dog had an amazing time. She came home happy, relaxed, and completely tuckered out. Melissa has a fenced-in backyard which made lots of outdoors time accessible and she sent photos and updates throughout the day so I knew how things were going. She was very communicative from the start and set up a meet-and-greet beforehand, which helped me feel comfortable leaving my dog in her care. It’s clear that she provides a safe, positive, and peaceful environment for the pets she watches. I would absolutely book with Melissa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”
About: I have never NOT had dogs in my life. My entire childhood included dogs. It was our German Shepherd, Dolly, who helped me learn to walk. As an adult, I have always had a fur baby or two. My current job provides me with open weekends. With my family now living out of the area, I have great availability, as well as flexibility. Whether it’s playtime or cuddles, I will do whatever it takes to make your dog(s) happy and provide you with peace of mind and no worries.
“Shanna is a delight and took fantastic care of Keely. I only wish she lived closer to our home so she could be our full time sitter. Our dog came home happy and exhausted.”

“Our boxer, Heidi, had a great day with Heidi and Todd today! She loved playing with their adorable dog, Kip. I felt very comfortable leaving her there and would recommend Heidi and Todd for anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“Mackenzie was the absolute perfect dog sitter for our sweet Maverick! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. It was clear she loved and cared for him as if he were her own, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away at the Packers game. She kept us updated with pictures and made sure Maverick had everything he needed — including lots of love and snuggles! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Mackenzie to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and who truly loves animals. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boy!”
“I couldn’t have been happier with the care and attention Breanna gave to our pets. The whole process was so easy and Breanna was very accommodating. She sent pictures and messages to let me know how our babies were doing and allowed us to have a great day without worrying about our pets. She is a very sweet girl with an obvious love for animals. An overall outstanding experience; I would highly recommend her!!!”

About: A Home Away from Home for Your Beloved Pet Animals have always been at the center of my life. I’m the kind of person you’ll see pulled over on the side of the road, coaxing a frightened or injured animal to safety. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's who I am. When one of my dogs developed severe arthritis and could no longer enjoy walks, I repurposed a wagon and some old downhill skis into a sled so she could still take in the fresh air and sights of winter. That’s the kind of care and creativity I bring to every animal in my life. Your pet will be treated like family here. Whether they’re most comfortable relaxing in a private room or hanging out with the rest of us in the house, we make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. If your pet prefers some solo R&R, we absolutely respect that too. For peace of mind, I use a pet camera so I can keep an eye on things throughout the day—and I’m happy to share photos and updates with you during their stay. With hands-on experience in animal shelters, rescues, and private training facilities, I’m confident working with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. My background has also given me extensive knowledge of animal health, medications, and disease management. If your pet requires medication or has special health needs, you can trust that they’re in capable hands. Additional Experience & Amenities: Certified in Animal CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) Experienced with grooming basics including ear cleaning and nail trimming Fully fenced-in yard for safe playtime Mini pet pool and lots of toys for enrichment in warmer months Important Notes: All pets must be up-to-date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention (during summer) We require a meet-and-greet before your pet's stay to ensure a good fit for everyone Please let us know if your pet has any behavioral issues (around food, toys, or beds) or requires a specific medication or feeding routine We’re so excited to meet you and your furry friend—and to provide them with the love, care, and comfort they deserve! Thank you! I work full-time but come home for lunch. So your pet wouldn't wait more than 4 hours to be let out. We spend alot of time outside, like to go for walks or just relax in the backyard. I have a large fenced in backyard providing lots of room to run and play. I have a entire room dedicated to the pets that stay over if they need some quiet alone time. They are welcome to be in the house with the rest if my family but have the option to have their space as well.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who recently retired, and I’m looking to fill my days with some extra puppy love. My pup, Cullen, and I are a duo that loves company. Since I’m home throughout the day, your dog will have constant supervision, plenty of backyard time, and all the belly rubs they can handle. We’re looking for friendly companions to join us for neighborhood strolls and afternoon naps. Your pup won’t just be "staying" here—they’ll be part of the family! Since I am retired, my schedule is completely dedicated to pet care. Your dog will enjoy 24/7 companionship and a consistent routine, as I am home full-time to provide potty breaks, backyard play, and plenty of cuddles. Cullen and I are very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and we look forward to a Meet & Greet to ensure a perfect match! We offer a fully fenced-in backyard featuring a beautiful koi pond. To ensure a safe and harmonious environment for everyone, I look for guest dogs who have a solid foundation in basic obedience and a 'gentle' temperament around water and wildlife. My own dog loves making new friends, and I prioritize active supervision to ensure all 'fur babies'—and my fish—stay happy and safe!

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and what sets me apart is my flexibility and commitment—I’m willing to adjust personal plans to ensure pets are well cared for and I’m able to travel as needed. As a physical therapist, I bring strong safety awareness, a structured and reliable approach to routines, and clear, timely communication with frequent updates and quick responses.

I am flexible, dependable, and willing to take on any tasks required. I’m happy to follow instructions and assist wherever I’m needed to make sure everything is taken care of.
“I reached out to Kaitlyn to see if she could accommodate a short notice dog walking request, as I’ve been a little under the weather and my dog was starting to go stir crazy. She responded to my request quickly, communicated when she was on her way, walked Luna for the full 30 minutes and was very friendly! Luna is a happy girl and I would absolutely hire Kaitlyn again!”
About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own. I do work mon-thurs 3-9pm and Saturday 11-4. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.
About: Let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, or behaviors that I can account for or help with. I would love to help. If you have plants that need watering, mail, or packages that need to be brought in, I can help with that too! I'm retired and love traveling around Wisconsin and the world. Slow traveling is my favorite. I can explore new neighborhoods, cities, and local attractions without being rushed. I will follow your directions for your house and loved ones. Let me know the extra duties like watering, mail, or garbage routine. The house is left cleaner than I found it.

Thank you!! I am flexible and open to whenever needed whether it be just weekends, or if you need something during the week. I am here to help however I can. As a certified veterinary technician I have a large skill set to help me properly care for your pet in case of an emergency that puts me past others. I am very cautious and careful with everything I do keeping your pets safety and health a priority.
About: I'm a 26yo who has owned cats and dogs my entire life. Currently, I'm the parent of a very energetic husky and 2 cats. I am very active and athletic, so keeping up with a dog's energy is second nature. I love taking my pup for runs, walks, swims, and play time at the dog park. He loves to play with other dogs and can be a playmate if you wanted. I have over 20 years experience in personally caring for animals: including feeding, changing litter boxes, play time, cleaning messes, administration first aid and medications, IV injections, and keeping an eye for unusual behavior. I am caring for an animal every day of the week. I can fit in a lot given my flexible work schedule and ability to travel. Everyone has different standards for pet care, and I am open to adapting and curating care based on individuals and pet needs. I can be a great service in keeping your pet active when needed, and to help keep them calm when necessary. I know socializing and connecting are a huge need to properly care for animals, so as an animal lover I always try to find a connection with the animals I care for

“I highly recommend Julia. From the moment we connected, her communication was clear, prompt, and thoughtful. She sent pics and updates during the stay and treated Tuco with genuine affection-like a member of her own family. Tuco came home happy, relaxed and tired. ;) Truly a joy to work with-I'll definitely book again!”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Kristin was amazing with our dog! Her family truly took care of him like he was their own. Our pup got lots of exercise, tons of snuggles and had his own vacation on the farm. Kristin sent us regular updates, so we were able to see how much fun he was having exploring their land. I’d highly recommend her care and will be bringing our dog back in the future!”
“Heather and her husband were so great with our dog, Sheeva. It was our first Rover experience and we had a wonderful experience with them. They sent photos and updates every day so we could see how she was doing and that was very much appreciated. Sheeva was a happy and tired girl when we picked her up so it was clear she had a great time. We will be booking with Heather again!”
“Oreo and Sky were well taken care of. We received photos every day. Given that Oreo is almost 15 it is important for us to use an at home person. Sky being a puppy can be a bit crazy so she needs outside time. Thank you.”
“Just wonderful! Will absolutely keep Melissa on the top of my list for the next time I need a sitter. You can tell she is knowledgeable about pet care and asks about any special needs like allergies, medications, etc. I received updates and photos while I was away, which is very reassuring. So caring and attentive. Thank you, Melissa!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! My boys were super happy when I went and saw them and Melissa gave me many updates. She was very kind and very down to earth, would absolutely recommend and will come back if I need someone to watch my dogs again!”
“Like always, Sharon and her family are the best. Sharon is very flexible and promptly responds to requests. My wife loves the photos she sends to give us updates. Thank you again”
“Excellent sitter! Updates & pictures every day. Shanna has a caregiving nature and truly in tune to animal needs and behaviors. We definitely recommend and would love future pet sitting! Thanks Shanna!”
“Jeffrey was amazing with communication from the start of booking all the way to the end of the trip. He truly eased my fears of leaving my dog for the first time ever. He took her on walks and just gave her so much love and TLC. He gave daily updates on my dog and even sent pictures. Eased my heart for sure. He was truly amazing with my dog Belle and I will definitely be using him in the future.”
“We were so happy to find Aryn on Rover to care for our dogs for a weekend away! She was especially patient with one of our dogs that experiences separation anxiety. We really appreciated her communication and care for our dogs!”
“Mackenzie did a great job making us feel at ease leaving our dog with her while we were in town for a packers game. Our dog was so excited when he met her he hardly said goodbye to us and was in a great mood when we picked him up the next day. Mackenzie was great with communication and sending photos and updates.”
“Denise and her family were great with my dog Mason. She kept communication with me the whole stay and sent a lot of pictures of Mason with her kids and their dog. It made my time away much more relaxing knowing Mason was being well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Denise and her family to anyone!”
“Great set up with the yard...friendly dogs...and Tara and her husband were very communicative. Dealing with them made you feel like they really cared and it wasn't just a job. Definitely recommend!”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Sara and her family provided a wonderful home for our two dogs while we were on a trip! They have a large fenced-in backyard where they could run around and play with Luna. They came home happy and pooped from all their fun. We are so grateful, and will definitely use them in the future!”
About: An LPN by trade, I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Since I was a little girl, dogs and cats have held a special place in my heart, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Anyone who knows me personally knows how deeply I love animals and how important they are to me. My own dogs are truly part of my family—they’re my babies—and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and family members regularly rely on me to watch and board their beloved pets when they travel. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for daily walks, playing, providing companionship, or simply making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When your pet is in my care, I will treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a loving, dependable, and stress-free experience for both you and your furry family member, so you can have peace of mind knowing they are receiving plenty of attention, affection, and care. As a nurse who is currently taking a break from my career, I have the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. My mornings start with potty breaks, breakfast, and plenty of love and attention for the pets in my care. After a relaxing coffee break, we head out for a daily walk, with the distance tailored to each pet’s age, energy level, and abilities—anywhere from a leisurely stroll to a 1–3 mile adventure. The rest of the day includes playtime, cuddles, companionship, and ensuring your pet feels comfortable and secure. I understand how much pet parents miss their furry family members, so I’m happy to send photos and videos to keep you updated and give you peace of mind. Afternoons are typically a time for rest and relaxation, followed by supper and another walk in the evening if needed. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, exercise, and affection. My goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable, safe, and loving as possible—just like they are part of my own family. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. While we do not have a fenced yard, I am committed to responsible pet care and will always use a leash when outdoors—without exception. I understand that pets are cherished family members, and I take every precaution to keep them safe. My home is shared with two friendly, low-key dogs who enjoy daily walks, relaxing in the sunshine, and plenty of couch cuddles. They are accustomed to being around other pets and help create a calm, welcoming environment. Whether your pet enjoys activity and adventure or prefers quiet companionship and affection, I will do my best to make them feel comfortable, loved, and right at home.
“Holly was amazing to work with! She treated our dog as one of her own and went above and beyond with sending pictures and videos throughout the stay. She will be the first person I ask the next time we need care for our dog!”
“This was our first time using Rover and the whole process was great! Megan answered all of our questions and was great with our labradoodle!! Will definitely use her and her husband again in the future!”
