“Angela and Stephen are so great! My two littermates had a great time playing with them today. They have a great backyard and live in a super cute quiet cul-de-sac neighborhood.”


“Listen, look no further on Rover! Sharon is it. My dog injured himself and needed a place for several days that was attentive to his needs because he couldn't run or jump and I didn't want him crated all day while I was at work. Sharon sent me videos, photos, progess updates, and my Bosey would get so excited when we pulled up to her house. Her home is so serene and calm. She has plenty of toys. He has recovered quicker than I anticipated. I soooo appreciate Sharon and the care and compassion that she had for my Bosey. I will be using her and anyone reading this review should too.”


“Jared and Waverly went above and beyond for my dog. They gave me regular updates (pictures included) on how he was doing throughout the day and made sure he was settling okay. I cannot thank them or recommend them enough!”



“Gloria loves Miss Rachael!!! She is very knowledgeable about caring for animals which makes me feel less anxious when she isn’t with me!!! Thank you for taking such good care of Gloria. And she loves Butch!!!”


“We've never used Rover before, but were very impressed with our first experience. Jessica was lovely and we really enjoyed the updates throughout the day. So smooth. We will definitely use her in the future :)”


“William was amazing. They sent me the most beautiful pics of my dog with various backgrounds. William loves dogs! Period. Bosey was so excited to go up to the door. Don't hesitate to use this sitter. Your doggie will be in great hands.”


“Alycia was amazing and Bosey loved her. She was wonderful and accommodating. She sent photos and videos throughout the day. Her home is perfect for dachshunds because steps aren't good for Bosey's back. I am so grateful for her.”


“Breanna is great! We left our pup for daycare, she played, relaxed, and went on a walk. Breanna was very responsive and provided great updates. We would absolutely leave our pup with her again.”


“Our dog was all smiles after spending the day with Janet. She got lots of walks and love and attention. Janet was very sweet. She has a dog park right behind her building too. We will use her again and highly recommend her!”


About: I had dogs and cats in my house my entire childhood. I helped feed them and walk them, gave them medications and played with them. I’ve even given a rowdy Doberman eye drops 😅 long story short, since moving away, I’m looking to have more pets in my life. As for cats, I also grew up cleaning litter boxes and dealing with diet changes. I’ve brushed cats on a very regular basis and love playing with them. I am also here to listen for any other requests or special needs that your pet may have! Whether that be for medications, treats, specifications for walking, training commands, etc. I’m here for you! I am currently working part time with an extremely flexible schedule. I am a stay at home mom expecting my first in August 2024 and spend time taking care of my own dog as well! I am an animal lover, so I am all about the pets, cuddles, and play time! I love to run around with them, play fetch, or just let them do their thing. All animals have different needs and I’m all about observing and listening to them in the moment.

About: Hi there! My name is Morgan, and I’m a dedicated pet parent to two lovable doodles. Caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’m here to provide them with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just making sure they’re happy and safe, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, you can trust that your pets are in good hands. Let’s make their tails wag together! Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, especially since I work from home. My two doodles are my constant companions, and their needs naturally shape my day. From outdoor playtime to meal times, enrichment activities, and cuddle breaks, I’ve built a lifestyle that ensures they’re happy, active, and well-cared for. Working from home allows me to be attentive and consistent, providing plenty of time for fun and affection. Pet care isn’t just part of my schedule—it’s a fulfilling part of my everyday life! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at ease and cared for like family. I ensure they have plenty of attention, playtime, and relaxation in a stress-free atmosphere. Whether it’s feeding, monitoring their behavior, or engaging in activities to keep them happy and healthy, I focus on their individual needs and routines.

“I left my 8 week old puppy for daycare with Mariah & Cody. I was a nervous wreck! They kept me informed with pictures and updates and reassured me with appropriate introductions to their other dogs. Both Mariah & Cody have such kind and genuine personalities, I felt confident my puppy would be loved and they were happy to have her.”


About: I have been an animal lover all of my life. I used to work as a professional dog-walker. I have provided a loving home for cats and dogs over the years. I have experienced the pain of trying to find the perfect sitter for my own pets.... not too expensive, and will provide the perfect loving environment for my fur babies. I strive to provide that for you and your fur babies. I currently work from home except for 2hrs each weekday, so I will be available to let them out in the fenced yard, walk them, play ball with them or just snuggle them. I also have 2 dogs of my own that I play with all day. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company. Pets are treated as family and will be treated how you would treat them in your own home. We can crate your babies if that is what they are used to, or they may free roam the house as long as they are house trained. I have 2 children who will spoil your pup with snuggles and play.
