Highly-rated overnight sitters - Thompson
“It was just an overnight visit but the puppies are still exhausted! They’re must’ve had a great time 🥰. Cheryl kept in touch with verifying meds and letting me know they we’re doing great🥰🥰🥰thank you again!”
“Katy and DJ are wonderful! They send lots of pictures. We know Emme is in good hands. Love that they work from home and someone is always there. And they let Emme sleep on couch :)”
“Amanda was amazing and accommodating with drop off and pickup. She took the time to really get to know all the details with Rusty and his habbits. She gave updates and pictures. Rusty had a great time and was a sad to leave. 13/10 recommend.”
“This was the first time booking with Doreen. I assisted my elderly mom with the booking for her dog since my mom is unfamiliar with using apps on her phone. Doreen was extremely accommodating, communicative and flexible. Flossie is not often away from my mom, and I felt comfortable that Doreen was the right choice and that Flossie would be in kind and attentive care. Doreen sent a picture and comment via text each night which made my mom comfortable. Thank you, Doreen for working with us!”
“Scott & Ashley and their family took such good care of our two dogs. We got daily updates and photos. They took extra care with our little, really old guy with issues. Wonderful sitters. I highly recommend them.”
“Our anxious dog enjoyed her stay with Monique! I could tell that Monique took her time with Maggie and accepted that she just gets anxious upon arrival and departure. Would recommend!”
“Christiana and her family took excellent care of Nola while we were away. She sent daily pics & updates which made us feel at ease that Nola was being well taken care of and enjoying her stay. We will definitely have Nola stay again! ❤️”
“Mochi had an amazing stay! Maria and Nayibe were supportive and flexible, able to change his drop off time and extend his stay an extra night when my travel plans were delayed. Mochi got to spend all day everyday with other dogs and two people he loves and trusts. He even got to sleep in bed with Maria and her kitty, just like he does with me at home. Originally, I planned to have Mochi visit for daycare only a few times before I traveled to prepare him for boarding for the first time. He loves it there so much though, that I will continue to send him for daycare playtime regularly. 🥰”
“Jenifer was amazing!!! My dog was so happy at her house And I could relax leaving her there!!! She sent pictures which was so fun and such a plus and answered any texts I sent very promptly!! I can’t wait to use her again!!!! THANK YOU!!❤️”
“Cari and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Russell. He got lots of walks, plenty of play time, and tons of snuggles. He especially liked playing with the girls. Will definitely use her again.”
“They are the BEST sitters ever! Penny Bean is excited to arrive at their house (confirmation of how caring they are!). We get photos throughout our trips and they are very accommodating if you want more or less information (based on your style as a pet parent!). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!!”
“Angela and her family watched our dog for a week while we were on vacation. Angela was very courteous and great to work with. She has a big fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. She sent lots of pictures with daily updates. Our dog seemed very happy with her family and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Thanks Angela!”
“Yolanda is GREAT! She is very accommodating as my flight was delayed and I was two hours late picking my gremlins up. Her home is very clean and organized, and best of all my boys has bonded with her. I would definitely recommend to new and current clients. There is no doubt of future bookings with Yolanda, as she is now the boys home away from home.”
“Gianina was a great host to Kona! She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend! She had a great yard for him to explore, and she took him on nice walks. We will definitely book with her again if we travel!”
“Paul did an amazing job watching our pup! He "warned' us that he would try to exceed our expectations, and no question he absolutely did. We loved all the updates with photos, and the numerous offsite visits to parks was so fun to see. So comforting while we were such a long distance away. We'd recommend Paul to anyone!”
“My dog had a wonderful time at this house and I received many pictures of her having fun. The family was also accommodating to our needs when we had some trouble getting back at the time we predicted.”
“Gilian was amazing; I felt confident my pup Jackie was in great hands the entire time!! Updates were provided often with lots of pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again when I need a sitter :)”
“Sweet, loving, great companion for our Angel while we were gone. pictures every day... great reports.... we felt so relaxed having her with Mary! There is a reason she has so many repeats!!!”
“Sherry was so amazing in accommodating my senior pup within her home. Tedi was very comfortable and was able to enjoy all of her favorite things with Sherry from naps on the couch to car rides. I appreciated the photos and updates I received and could not have felt more comfortable being away from Tedi for an extended period of time. Definitely will be asking for a repeat stay should her schedule allow!”

“Paul was very tuned into Meli’s needs and spent a lot of time playing with her as she has an abundant amount of energy. He provided a lot of photos and videos, which I greatly appreciated and was very flexible with helping us out last minute. Thank you Paul!!”
“Cheryl and Josh provided drop in service for our 2 cats. They did an excellent job making sure there was food and water, and cleaning liter boxes. Most importantly they had play time with our cats and sent cute pictures and updates. I highly recommend them and will use them again when we are out of town.”
About: I've had my own cats since I was 11. Have had a total of 10 cats. Currently have 5 with my fiance. Ive had a few that have had some health issues and also have needed to administer meds for years. One of my cats I found in a local bar in 2010, she was pregnant and we had 4 healthy kittens. I still have the mom to this day! Write this better for rover Here’s a polished, Rover-friendly version that sounds warm, trustworthy, and professional: I’ve been a dedicated cat owner since I was 11 years old and have cared for a total of 10 cats over the years. Currently, my fiancé and I share our home with 5 cats, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets and their unique personalities. I also have experience caring for cats with health issues, including administering medications long-term, so I understand the patience and attentiveness that requires. One of my most special experiences was rescuing a pregnant cat I found in a local bar in 2010. She went on to have four healthy kittens, and I’m proud to say I still have the mom to this day! Caring for her and her kittens from the very beginning deepened my love and commitment to animals. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to provide them with safe, loving, and attentive care.
“Heather did a wonderful job dropping in to help with my two cats while I was on vacation. She came over for a meet and greet beforehand to understand their needs and was even willing to put some jelly in my Oriole feeder during the week. She is reliable and trustworthy and I will definitely have her come over again!”
“Sarge is very happy and taken care of after Autumn did the drop bys! She stayed longer than scheduled on her day off to spend some additional time with him since we were gone for a week, which I appreciate so much. She also took our garbages out for us! We will 100% book with her again for our next vacation.”
“Allison was great in the care of our senior cat. We appreciated the updates, pictures and the fact that she was accommodating with bringing in packages from the porch into the house while we were away.”
About: I’ve had a cat my whole love except for when I was around 17. I’m confident giving most of them medication and clipping (my cats) nails. Cleaning litter box’s once a day is a must. Play time and cuddles are equally important if they want them. Ive bathed my own cat but obviously all cats are different. If it’s a drop in for a back rub and some food, or a stay at your place for a kitty to not be alone, I’m so in!
“Madison took great care of our cat. Arrived at the agreed upon time, fed and played with him. She even cleaned up a little mess he made. Great experience. Will hire her again.”
About: I have had pets all my life. I have 5 of my own dogs of various shape and size and foster for a couple different rescues! I am very flexible, I'm available most of the time and love to meet new pets. I try to fit the needs of pet owners where I can. I don’t plan on doing any home care. I have 5 dogs of my own and also foster. This just isn’t possible at this time.
About: With 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes, I am dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for your furry family members. I understand the unique needs of each pet and prioritize their comfort and happiness. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I am committed to ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Rest assured, your animals will be in experienced hands! I am currently working part time as a nurse so I will have plenty of free time to spend with your pets! I am available in the evening after 4pm on weekdays and all day on weekends! In my role as a pet sitter, I prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment for pets in their own homes. I follow the specific care routines and preferences outlined by the pet owner to ensure consistency and familiarity for the pet. This includes adhering to feeding schedules, maintaining exercise routines, and providing regular playtime and companionship. I am attentive to the pet's needs, monitoring their behavior and health, and ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. I also maintain a clean and organized space, including regular waste disposal and cleaning up after playtime. Communication with the pet owner is key; I provide updates on their pet's well-being and any notable activities or concerns. My goal is to minimize stress for both the pet and the owner, ensuring a positive experience for everyone involved.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Thompson
“Gianina watched my 7 month old puppy for 4 consecutive days. She was awesome to work with and each day my puppy came home happy, healthy, and tired. I truly appreciate her caring for him so well and I would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
About: Love to walk, run or go on hikes often depending on your request! Happy to assist your pet while you are away and send lots of updates! If visits are needed during the weekend and/or when school is off my three children will likely be joining me to help. I’m available full time, typically start dog runs at 9:00am and love to go on hikes (weather permitting) I am open to any additional pet requests. We have a large grassed yard with access to the lake for swimming and dock jumping. Additionally, daily walks and runs on leash. Lots of extra pet supplies if needed.
About: I have over 10 years pet care experience, 7 of which I have been specifically focusing on dog training. Understanding the minds of dogs and how they think requires a degree of skill and patience, along with consistent application of training techniques. This knowledge of how dogs thinks, interact, and behave helps in every aspect of dog care in itself. It makes every individual pet special because dogs have their own unique personalities, and being able to tap into that and create a bond is different from dog to dog. This is one of the best parts of taking care of people’s pets! Any of your specific needs and accommodations will be met and/or exceeded when in my care, guaranteed! I am a journeyman lineman and I work 4 days a week. Aside from that I own a dog training business where I train dogs on weekends. My wife Teal is home every day for any assistance in care for your dogs and we are both committed to giving the most comfortable and enjoyable stay for your dogs! Trusting someone with these members of our family can be stressful and hard to do at times. I understand better than anyone that giving my pets up to someone can be a daunting task. We need to trust our pets are given the same care they get at home and are loved like one of our own. In this household we have 1 cat and 2 dogs. There is nothing more important than treating your dog equally as good as one of our own. Between my wife and myself the pets we care for will receive our undivided attention and compassion. We incorporate tons of engagement and interactive play time. We are sure to see that these pets aren’t just alone and disregarded. My wife and myself strive to have an environment where animals can have a stress free and fun loving home to reside in until their owners make it back to them. Rest assured that I have been caring for dogs for many years, and training dogs for close to 7 now. You will not find a more loving and compassionate place for your dog than right here!
About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life. I have most experience with medium large to giant breeds. I currently have a lab (8 years old) and a Newfoundland mix puppy (1 year). I have foster dogs in the past, and watched others dogs for an extended period of time and I love all types of breeds. But Big dogs have my heart. Your dogs will be pampered and can be on the couch, bed, or dog bed. We have an enclosed deck perfect for sun bathing pooches or those who love to sit in the cold (like my Newfoundland). Potty breaks will be leashed to ensure the safety of your beloved dog. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible on how to care for a dog. Unlimited potty breaks if needed. Live in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks. I can provide a pick up and drop off service if you need it. Any dog in my home will be treated as if they were my own. Dog safety and comfortability is my number one priority. They can play all day while you’re away. Your dogs will be pampered and can be on the couch, bed, or dog bed. All new clients must agree to a meet and greet prior to me confirming a booking.

About: Dogs are a big part of our daily life.

Our home is set up to be dog-friendly, and I treat every dog like part of the family—while still respecting their routine so they feel secure.

I always practice sit-stay when opening the door to prevent bolting out. Part of our yard is fenced and outside the fence your pet will always be leashed. If I am away for a short period and it's needed for safety or per your preference, we do have a large crate and an enclosed pet gate.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of sharing my home with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, a rabbit, birds, and even reptiles—so I’m comfortable with a wide variety of pet personalities and needs. My fiancé and I currently have five cats, and they keep life fun, active, and full of love. I have a deep compassion for animals of all kinds and all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also taken in several strays over the years, helping reunite them with their owners or finding them safe, loving homes. That experience has made me especially attentive, responsible, and intuitive when it comes to animal care. I truly value time outdoors and believe regular walks and activity are key to a happy, healthy pet. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with love, attention, and respect. I work part time as a massage therapist this leaves lots of times available for in home pet care. My schedule can be open more then what days/times I have on my profile. Currently I'd be coming to your home to care for or walk your pet. If needed I could possibly board. I do have 5 cats, they sleep most of the day.

About: Hey there! A little about me, I am a huge animal lover, I grew up with my mom house sitting on rover! So I’m very used to many dogs of all sizes! I am in college (hybrid) and don’t have the space for my own pup, so caring for others animals gives me my fix! I was the neighborhood dog walker, I have pet sat for family and friends, I also have experience with cats, and exotics, chinchillas, ferrets, birds, bunnies, farm animals, you name it!:) My days are super flexible, I’m always communicative about when I’m gone. My classes are hybrid, so I don’t have to go in to school often, if I do it’s normally short periods! Meaning plenty of time for your lovely pets!! I have lots of experience with all type of temperaments when it comes to dogs and cat’s and other animals, I’m also very communicative and send lots of updates and photos!
About: As of recent, I no longer have any pets of my own full-time and will enjoy getting to spend time with yours! I have had pets almost all of my life, and always more than one at a time. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, small indoor pets, and birds. I also provide care for chickens, and feeding care for horses, goats, and sheep. For the past 8 years I have done overnight, extended stay pet sitting, drop in care, and boarding in my home for dogs or small animals who come with their home (for example guinea pigs). I can also provide transportation and care for animals attending special occasions or wanted as a part of photos (for example at a wedding). I have experience giving both oral and injected medications to dogs and cats. I work full time 8:30 - 4:30 but do work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can provide care before and after work as well as during the days when I work from home. I am also free most weekends. Because all animals are different, my first priority is to provide the type of care and services specific to their individual needs. I do have a large yard, but it is not fenced in. I love to go on walks / hikes with dogs.
About: I’ve grown up with numerous dogs and breeds my whole life and got one of my own, Benny, 5 years ago. There was rarely a time in my life that I was not taking care of or playing with a dog; whether it be my family dog or other. It’s a dream of mine to work more with dogs and this is my way to make it come true as I have summers free being a high school biology teacher! During the summer months I would be able to assist letting dogs out for bathroom breaks, playtime and/or walks. I would be able to work most afternoons. I take care of all pets as if they were my own, and my own are spoiled! I love these four legged friends and would only take care of others dogs the way I would want someone to take care of Benny.
About: I have experience taking care of my personal pets, as well as other fur friends! What sets me apart Cromwell other sitters is I have experience working at the local humane society in the behavior unit, as well as assisted with dog walking with a wide variety of breeds and ages! I’m currently working full time; however, I have a flexible schedule and do a combination of working remote from home and going into the office. Lots of flexibility in my schedule to fit any need!

About: I have been around animals, my whole life it doesn’t matter if it’s my pets, my friends, pets or even my families pets. I have had rabbits, fish, cats, and dogs. When I was first born and at a very young age, my parents had a cat named Misty. Misty was a farm cat, and I learned at the young age of how to take care of a pet and a cat. It didn’t matter if it was giving the cat exercise, feeding the cat, giving it water or even cleaning out the litter pan. I also at a young age at around eight learned how to take care of a dog as my family got a golden retriever. We got this golden retriever named Sam from Humane Society, and Sam was an older dog about eight years old. I learned how to take care of an older dog, feeding it, giving exercise and water, and of course playing fetch, because what golden retriever doesn’t like fetch. After these animals, I got a Maine Coon cat named Cowboy. Again I learned how to take care of Cowboy by feeding Cowboy, giving Cowboy water and emptying the litter pan along with playing with Cowboy. Cowboy was a bit younger when I got him and was about eight months old. After cowboy, I was Lucky enough to get a black lab as a puppy, named Lucky. I named Lucky Lucky because what dog is not lucky to have me as their owner to take them on runs! Lucky was about four months old and again a potty trained Lucky, took Lucky to training classes and also trained Lucky on my own at home helping Lucky to learn to sit stay and play. After Lucky I got a rescue dog named Dyno, Dyno was a rescue dog from a high kill shelter in Alabama and when I did a DNA test on Dyno, Dyno came out to be a black lab pointer mix with a little bit of terrier and boxer in her as well. Dyno was approximately four months old as well when I got her. I helped Dyno learn to be potty trained took her to training classes and train her at my house as well. I helped Dyno to learn, sit and stay, and also place along with playing dead. I recently just moved out of my house, and unfortunately Dyno had to stay with my parents, because Dyno doesn’t get along with other dogs as well. I did have to be very cognizant, while I took care of Dyno, to make sure Dyno did not injure or hurt other dogs, and keep Dyno safe as well, so I’m very good at making sure and keeping track of dogs when they’re along with other dogs so that they don’t fight. I am smart and know the signs dogs have if they are nervous, worried, or scarred. I moved in with my fiancé, who has a seven year-old golden retriever named Molly, and I am currently taking care of Molly. Molly is an unbelievable golden retriever dog, loves to go for runs and play fetch. If you have a dog that loves to go for runs or walks I will gladly take them for runs and walks to get my exercise in with them. What dog does not like to go for a run? Hope I can help you walk/run and take care of your animals just like I love to take care of my own! I am a police officer and have many days off during the week. So if you need someone to let your furry friends out while at work I am perfect for that. One week I work Monday Tuesday Friday to Sunday. I’m off Wednesday and Thursday the following week off Monday Tuesday and the weekend. In my professional life, I am a police officer, so not only do I take care of animals in my personal life, but also in my professional life when they are lost, and I need to get them back to the owner, or even dropping them off at the Humane Society so they are safe. Recently on the Snowmobile Trail. I actually found a kitten and was able to get the kitten to come to me so that it did not freeze to death in the woods and get it to a business near the Snowmobile Trail so that it could be returned to the Humane Society to stay safe . Based off of my schedule in my professional life of being a police officer, I have many days off during the week. So if you’re at work and need your furry friends to be let outside, I am the perfect person. As I have many off days on Monday Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday while others are working. I can explain my schedule better however here is a break down. Week one. I work Monday Tuesday Friday Saturday Sunday. I am off Wednesday and Thursday Week two. I only work Wednesday and Thursday off the rest of the week. Even if you are home and you’re an individual that doesn’t like to go for runs or walk or are older, I could take care of your animal and let them out take them for a walk or run while you were at home as well, just to get them exercise, I would be happy to do that because then I get my exercise as well. On the weekends, I would be available most all the time as well, unless I am busy, but I would do drop in short notice type calls as well! With me working in the school during the school year, I have off days during the school year that your kids are off as well. So spring break I am open all day, or just even random days during the week they are off as well. So please keep that in mind. In the summer I am free at 2pm to let your dog outside. My schedule just changed and I work night shift. So I am available anytime during the day as long as I’m not sleeping. The days I work stays the same regarding off days and not. Right now I am not planning on having dogs or cats stay at my house with my dog Molly, so this is not something you need to worry about however, if I’m walking or taking your dog for a run, I would make sure to bring my light up light collar for your dog so that your dog is safe whether it’s dark out. If you have one I would use yours. This will make sure your dog has your collar on with its leash and keep your dog or cat safe.

Her home is very clean and organized, and best of all my boys has bonded with her. I would definitely recommend to new and current clients. There is no doubt of future bookings with Yolanda, as she is now the boys home away from home.”
“Paul did an amazing job watching our pup! He "warned' us that he would try to exceed our expectations, and no question he absolutely did. We loved all the updates with photos, and the numerous offsite visits to parks was so fun to see. So comforting while we were such a long distance away. We'd recommend Paul to anyone!”

“Sherry was so amazing in accommodating my senior pup within her home. Tedi was very comfortable and was able to enjoy all of her favorite things with Sherry from naps on the couch to car rides. I appreciated the photos and updates I received and could not have felt more comfortable being away from Tedi for an extended period of time. Definitely will be asking for a repeat stay should her schedule allow!”
“They were great! Mikeale was very communicative & quick with responses, sent daily updates with pictures, and accommodated my short-notice stay. Ruby was very tired when she got home <3.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs all my life. I grew up showing dogs, both my family dogs and others. My family back home currently has three dogs, each a different size, from small to large, so I have experience with all sizes. I live in a great area for casual walks, with a dog park and a small lake nearby for the pups that are allowed to swim! I work full-time, in-office Monday through Thursday and from home on Fridays. I take daily walks around my neighborhood in the evening. On weekends, I love exploring a new coffee shop and walking trail or just a longer walk in the areas near me. I’d love to bring your pet along with me on walks and for downtime on the couch afterwards! I don’t have a fenced yard, but there is a dog park where your pup can run freely. Outside of that, we have open grass areas where we can walk. All pups are welcome on furniture at my place and are welcome to enjoy the space as their own. I do have a patio that they’re more than welcome to sit outside and enjoy with me.
“Dani & Aiden were great with our dogs and very accommodating. They are extremely flexible with timing and sent us plenty of pictures through out our dogs stay.”
