“Very good dog sitters - recommended !”


About: I've watched dogs of friends and family on and off for the past 11 years. It's been a mix of older dogs, young dogs, large and small. I'm a stay at home mom. Our pets are rarely home alone for more than a couple hours at a time a couple days each week. I have a fenced in yard and friendly pooch with loads of toys to share. Our dog has unlimited access to the yard as long as I am home. A water dish is always out and available. We do have a cat who free ranges around the house, but she tends to make herself scarce when other dogs are in the house.

“It was my first time leaving my pup and she loved her time with Katarina, Butters and Tenzy! Katarina took such great care of her and I got the cutest picture/video updates. Thanks for giving her all the snuggles, treats, and playtime! ?”


“Hannah is the perfect dog sitter! My Lady Mac went to her for 4 days of doggie daycare and loved every minute of it. She came home happy and exhausted which was great to see as this was our first time having our pup being watched by someone else. Hannah did an amazing job of listening to and following the feeding schedule and watching over to ensure play time was safe for all dogs involved. On top of managing that all, she did a fantastic job of sending pictures and videos of the fun our Lady was having. There was never a question or worry in my mind about how the day was going. When you leave your dog with Hannah, you can be 100% sure that he/she is well taken care of!”


About: New to Rover, but I've been raising dogs all my life! My family had Labradors and Boxers, I adopted a Basset, and I married someone who loves her Maltese. My wife and I have a spacious house, a large yard, a covered deck, lots of napping couches, and several dog gates so we can give your pup as much supervision as you'd like. We can do meet and greet, a house tour, and an introduction to our own dogs, George (our Basset) and Milo (our Maltese). I work from home, which means your dog's schedule gets followed no matter what. I can easily accommodate frequent potty breaks, play sessions, cuddle times, feeding schedules, and walks. Our dogs (George and Milo) get time outside in the yard at each meal, at least one walk a day in the evening, and play time whenever they want it. Depending on your pup, they're welcome to join those routines, or do more or less. We have our home very intentionally set up for dogs. My work-from-home station consists of just a laptop, which means I can work from whatever room in our home makes your furry friend feel most at home. Our dog gates let pups roam while ensuring we can keep an eye on them. Our own dogs (George and Milo) are social but also independent, so if your pup prefers one on one time with humans, we'll make sure he or she gets it.

“Nahla had so much fun! Suzy sent us videos and pictures of our pup throughout the day. She had great communication. Nahla came home one tired pup! Thank you!!”


“Pumpkin had a lot of fun with Toby and Jordan kept me updated all day.”


About: I offer a warm, loving environment where your dog will feel at home. I specialize in puppy care, providing gentle training and socialization, as well as senior dog care, ensuring your older dog gets the attention and comfort they need. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, so I offer consistent feeding schedules, exercise, and playtime tailored to your dog’s energy level. You can rest assured your pet will be my best friend during their time with me. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I prioritize time for walks, play, and bonding with the dogs in my care, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I also maintain a flexible schedule, allowing me to adjust feeding times and rest periods based on each pet’s needs. Whether it’s offering a morning walk or checking in for a midday play session, I make sure each dog gets the attention they deserve throughout the day. Pet care is not just a job for me; it’s a passion, and I always strive to create a routine that benefits both me and the pets I look after. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and clean environment where dogs are treated like family. I create a routine that includes daily walks, playtime, and ample attention to ensure they feel at home. I also have a spacious area where they can relax, and I ensure they are kept on their regular feeding and bathroom schedules. For clients’ homes, I make sure to respect their space while offering the same level of care—letting the pets out, playing with them, and providing comfort while they’re alone. I maintain open communication with pet owners and send updates and photos to keep them informed about their pet’s well-being.

“I’ve had Sarah and Alex watch Hank several times now, and I honestly couldn’t ask for better sitters. They always kept me updated throughout the day with little texts and tons of pictures of Hank lounging on the couch or playing in the yard. Hank always comes back happy and tired out from all the walks and playtime. Highly recommend.”

Tylee D.
“Tylee is nothing short of an excellent caretaker for dogs. From a very young age, Tylee has much experience taking care of dogs, beginning with her pet labs all the way to her current pet golden doodle! Tylee has always prioritized the pets, making time out of her day to walk and play with her dogs, even when finding time has been difficult. Regardless of how much food the pet needs, how much they need to walk, how many times they need to be let outside, Tylee will stop at nothing to make sure whatever dog she watches is the happiest dog alive. Tylee has experience taking care of her parents’ dog frequently, her grandparents’ dog, along with helping her friend who dog sits as well. So, Tylee already has some real world dog-sitting experience under her belt. You would not regret letting Tylee be your dog-sitter, so shoot her a message if you need someone to watch your dogs!”
