“This was our first time boarding our dogs and we could not be more pleased with how it went, thanks to Dondee! Although it was only a night, we were able to have peace of mind that they were being well loved and taken care of. We got lots of updates and pictures and are very happy we chose Dondee to watch our girls.”
“We were lucky to find Ms Holly and family. She was quick to respond to messages and questions. Very kind and loving 🥰 family. Our pup was well taken care of and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed watching her. Will definitely look forward to working with them again.”
“Birdie stayed for 10 days with Amy and her family and we couldn’t say enough good things! We got numerous updates and pictures throughout the whole experience. Birdie was loved and cared for as their own. It made going on vacation easier knowing Birdie was just as happy there as she would have been at home with us. Birdie will definitely miss their whole family!!”
“Drew and his family took great care of Daisy! He kept me updated with daily texts and pictures of her while I was away. Drew is a very kind and accommodating person and I would 100% let him care for my Daisy again. Highly recommended.”
“There aren’t words to describe how happy we were with Elizabeth and the care she provided our Beau… she treated him as if he was hers and I couldn’t have asked for more… The amount of pictures and updates she provided was absolutely fantastic and so so so greatly appreciated! I didn’t worry about him in the slightest while we were away, just missed him! Thank you so much Elizabeth ❤️”

“Denielle took Excellent care of our puppy while we were out of town. She has an amazing set up with a puppy room and a fenced back yard. Our dog had the best time playing with her and her family and her dog Xena! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for an attentive dog sitter!”
“I've used her before, and will use her again! My dog always gets lots of attention and is nice and tired when I come to pick him up. Andrea is flexible with drop-off and pick-up times!”

About: I have a patiences and love for animals! I am very comfortable walking, grooming, and loving all types of pets. I have worked with dogs (puppies and seniors), reptiles, fish and cats. I have a lot of availability during the day. I do not work a traditional 9-5 job and have flexibility to focus on your pets. I focus on the safety and joy of your pet! I will follow any requests for your animal and your home. I have one dog and three cats to keep all pets company but all are easily blocked off if any animals are overwhelmed.
“Juliana kept Leica for two nights while we attended a wedding. From the videos looks like Leica had a great time with Julian's dogs. We definitely will use Juliana again when we travel. Appreciate all of the attention you gave Leica.”
“If there were additional stars, I would click them all!! This family has allowed us to leave for a vacation without a second of worry about our best girl, Sugar! We have taken Sugar to stay with Holly and Jeremy three times now and would not want to use anyone else. Holly makes sure to send the cutest pictures of Sugar with their daughters and their dogs and she looks so happy and loved!! Words cannot really express how much this means to us! As long as they are in the Rover business, they are the ones I will use. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I'm Emily! I've had animals my whole life and truly love being around them. I grew up on a dairy farm and have always been surrounded by pets. I currently have three border collies and a cat, so I'm used to high-energy pets and keeping up with different routines. I've also raised a few litters of puppies over the years, so I'm comfortable with all ages and stages. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, feeding, or just some company while you're away, I'm happy to help however I can. I'm calm, dependable, and always make sure animals feel safe and cared for. I work full time during the week, but I’m available for pet care in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends. I enjoy starting and ending my day with some animal time—it fits naturally into my routine since I already care for my own pets every day. I have a fenced yard area for safe outdoor time and a quiet indoor space where your pet can relax away from my own animals if needed. I always focus on keeping pets comfortable, secure, and stress-free—whether they're at my place or I'm visiting yours. I follow your care instructions closely and treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect.
“Linda took great care of our Jazzy, who is a bit spoiled (sleeps in bed, goes out during night, needs to be with humans at all times). Linda sent pictures and videos and an update text every day. Will definitely ask Linda to take care of Jazzy again!”
“What an awesome find on Rover. Requested daycare at the last minute and David was more than happy to accommodate. Originally requested daycare for ~4 hrs, but appointments at Mayo kept being added on. Thought we would be finished around 2 pm, but not finished at Mayo until ~4 pm...no problem with David and his wife. Our Piper is a small rescue mix-breed with some anxiety issues, but she did great with their boxers. Several pictures were sent throughout the day that definitely decreased my anxiety. We were even gifted special treats that were sent home with Piper. I highly recommend, and will definitely use again in the future with our appointments at Mayo.”
“Nic and Kjersten’s home is our “kids” home away from home. I almost get sad when they are barking and excited when they know they are going to visit Nic and Kjersten - but then I realize I don’t have to worry about them being happy and safe. Such a gift. 10/10 happy with this loving home and caring couple.”
