About: Your dog is going to have a good time with me because I really enjoy time with them, they make my life better every single day. In my opinion the safest way to know the love is sharing time with dogs, they always let you know how happy they are to have to near, they just are always good and better for our life with the hability to change a bad day in a few minutes with some with some licks and barks from them. Dogs are love, Joy, loyalty for everybody around the world. Undoubtedly! I am 100% sure about it.

“Penny was very responsive and flexible with our schedule. She took great care of Trouble, including giving him his medications and eye drops, and he got to hang out with her adorable dachshund Frank! We’ll definitely use her services again!”

“Artemis was very happy in photo updates wa received and was happy at our return as well as seemed sad to be leaving as we drove away. Starla was very kind and informative and will definitely use her again with our puppy needs”

“I left for vacation and had to leave my kitty, Riott, behind, and I’m so grateful I found Katarina. She was absolutely amazing with him and made him feel right at home. She gave him lots of love, paid close attention to his needs, and treated him so well. She also kept me updated every day with adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It felt so reassuring knowing Riott was with someone who genuinely cared about him and knew how to take care of him. I will definitely book with Katarina again!”


“Sandy and her family made our dog (Little Rose) feel very welcome. She sent photos when we asked and in each photo our dog seemed very happy. When Rosie returned to our house, she was much happier than when coming back from previous kennels. Sandy was also very well organized and she helped us have an easy drop-off and pick-up.”

About: I’ve been a pet and animal owner my entire life. We have 3 young kids who love to play and one energetic 4 year old dog who also loves to play, so your pet would get a lot of play time at this house! I have lots of availability this summer, so reach out to me for specifics. Once fall hits and I’m back at school, I’ll be available for weekends. We have one friendly dog to keep yours company. Our yard is not fenced in, but we take frequent walks throughout the day. Our dog sleeps upstairs in the bedroom with us, but we do have a crate available if needed.

“It was a pleasure having Lynn watch Elliot. Elliot loved his stay. Lynn was great at communicating and provided frequent updates. I would happily let Lynn watch Elliot again!”

About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family — with patience, consistency, and genuine love. I don’t just “watch” dogs; I connect with them. Whether it’s a playful pup full of energy or a senior dog needing a calm, gentle touch, I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience caring for kittens, senior cats, and sphynx breeds (yes, I know how much love and maintenance they need 🐾). I keep things clean, calm, and consistent — following your exact feeding and litter routines, giving meds if needed, and keeping their favorite spots cozy and familiar. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and cozy space with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention. I make sure feeding, potty breaks, and walks happen on schedule, and I always keep an eye on hydration, mood, and comfort.
“We were so lucky to find Sara on Rover! She is super professional made us feel immediately at ease to travel without worry. Sara sent us daily updates with pictures of our frenchie, Coconut. We could tell by the pictures that Coconut was very happy and comfortable. Sara took her outside often to enjoy her yard and the sunshine. She took her for walks with her children who also gave her lots of attention and love. Coconut had an amazing vacation at Sara's house! We look forward to planning our next trip knowing that Coconut will have the best care.”

About: I’ve always had dogs of my own, so I understand the daily care, attention and responsibility they require. I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving and comfortable environment where every dog feels happy and cared for. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, walks and supervised outdoor time in the yard, I will be with them with the exception of short errands if needed. The yard is not fenced, so dogs are always kept safely monitored and/or leashed while outside. I will also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to four adorable cats and two kind-hearted, animal-loving children. Growing up, my home was always filled with furry, feathered, and scaly friends — from my loyal German Shepherd to curious hamsters, chirpy parakeets, gentle iguanas, and, of course, lots of sweet kitties. With a lifetime of hands-on experience and a deep respect for all creatures, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether it's a weekend getaway or a long vacation, you can relax knowing your pets are in loving, experienced hands. I am a teacher, and will be home for the summer beginning mid June and going through late August. My availability this summer will be quite open. I am a dedicated, special education teacher, who would love nothing more than to take care of your pet’s needs in the evenings and on the weekends during the school year. During the summer, I am available mornings, afternoons, and evenings to care for your fur babies. We currently have four indoor only cats, who are comfortable with respectful dogs. I am trustworthy, respectful, honest, and always strive to do the right thing. I am someone you can count on to provide care either in your home or mine for your beloved pets.
About: I am a dependable and responsible person who has a passion and a love for dogs and wishes to care for yours. I have grown up around dogs my entire life and have loved and valued each one in my life. I adopted 2 dogs in my life and the love I feel/felt for them is like no other. I trained and raised my dog that I adopted at 19 and have been a pet sitter for multiple families throughout the years. I am now a stay at home mom looking to care for dogs for extra income. We are home bodies that usually love to stay local and enjoy our home. I’m a stay at home mom and my partner works remote so our dog gets tons of love and attention throughout the day. We have a large fenced in yard and our amazing dog churro to keep your pet company. Daily walks and playtime outside is a must.

Elisa is a wonderful host for animals and went above and beyond watching my Shih Tzu Lulubelle. We were wedding bound and wasn’t familiar with anyone in the area and Elisa made it easy and a pleasure. She is very friendly , kind and has the perfect home to make an animal feel comfortable! She even send me updates and pictures of Lulubelle daily which was so considerate! Elisa even sent a card with Lulubelle’s picture on it! It’s a five star stay and I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again when I am in the area!💕

Nina was great! Our old girl Sadie is slowing down & has challenges & Nina was very patient and understanding. Sent us pictures regularly and the communication was great. Thank you, Nina, for taking care of our fur baby while we were away. It was the first time we've left her with someone for an extra-long period of time! We will definitely book you again!
