About: I have had all kinds of animals growing up(cats and dogs)! I currently have a female golden retriever (Bella) who is spayed! She’s looking for play dates. 🫶🏼 I work 3 days a week as a nurse and can help watch your pets on my days off!! I can possibly do some nights also if I’m off a few days in a row. I have a female golden retriever. Smoke free home, I have 4 children that would enjoy playing with your pet! I have a fenced in back yard.

“Ellen was phenomenal with both of our dogs. We got continuous updates and pictures. Very accommodating to our schedule. Our dogs loved her fenced in yard and Ellen. I would highly recommend and will be using her in the further. Can’t thank you enough!”


“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”


“Our furbaby receives wonderful care with Kathryn. She’s very good at communicating including pictures. We’re very happy with her as our sitter.”


“So grateful to Cody for watching our Merle!! She was fantastic, sending pictures and making sure he got plenty of playtime outdoors for his entire stay! Cannot recommend her enough!?”


“I had the good fortune of finding Deanna! She has established a safe and dog friendly haven that caters to the enjoyment of many breeds. Deanna goes above and beyond to understand the preferences and needs of your fur baby, ensuring a caring experience. I not only recommend but will use her services again.”


“Michelle and Justin were awesome in taking care of Kali. Communication was perfect and they were very friendly and understanding. Kali always had a smile on her face in the pictures! Thanks so much! 10/10 recommend and will book with again ^_^”


“Nate & Aylissia were AMAZING!! They were accommodating and booked me same day. They provided frequent updates and took great care of my Puggle. I would highly recommend them!!”


“Emily responded quickly, sent pics of my boys playing in the yard. She said they didn't eat much the first day but that's to be expected because they get anxious being left behind. But having boarded my dog tigger before he's usually anxious for days after being picked up and didn't have that this time, so that tells me a lot. ”



“Laura is fantastic. Maddie loves her and her family, and I love the check-in pictures. I trust Laura to take care of Maddie anytime. She helps her feel at ease and at home.”



“Such a great place for our dog to stay! She became part of the pack :) we made a strict request that our dog not eat the other dogs food- and the sitter followed that really well. Lots of updates. Would recommend.”


“Izzy seemed well cared for and happy when I picked her up. She slept most of the day, which I guess is common after an overnight. Very satisfied with the experience.”


“Kam and Jess were great with our 2 dogs, they took fantastic care of them. They provided us with daily updates. My dogs got lots of care and snuggles and play time with them. I would recommend them and I would use them again.”


“Hallie was exceptional!!! This was our first time using rover and she made us feel so comfortable with the process. She was always quick to respond to messages and sent tons of photos during Poppy’s stay! She clearly has a love for dogs and took care of Poppy as if she was her own. Couldn’t recommend Hallie enough!”
