“Michelle did a wonderful job caring for my puppy, Mabel. She was an excellent communicator, kept me updated and sent the cutest photos throughout Mabel's stay. As anyone with a puppy knows, they can be full of energy and a little chaotic at times, but Michelle handled Mabel's craziness with patience and confidence.”
“Sarah was excellent! She sent us photos and updates of our dog Gus while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was understanding and able to care for our senior dog with special needs. Would highly recommend!”
“Kuma had a great time with Connie and her sweet dog, JoJo! Connie was flexible with drop off/pick up, communicative, and sent photo and video updates- I’d definitely recommend Connie for all pet sitting needs!”
“She is amazing, We appreciate the daily feedback, she was updating us with pictures and videos. Our dogs came home not sleepy or tired like they were in pet hotels. She took a great care of them.”
“Cheryl was great with our two dogs. She responded quickly, gave us updates and sent us photos. It is always stressful leaving our dogs when we go out of town but Cheryl made it easy and we could tell our dogs felt comfortable with her right away. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Phyllis and Greg gave Oreo (my 2 year old border collie) a second home while my family was traveling for holiday! Oreo had a great 9 day stay with them and even gained 2 pounds. We appreciated the daily photos and text updates! Highly recommend Phyllis rover service.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walks, routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you feel at ease while away. My goal is to create a warm, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy — not just watched. It would truly be an honor to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention every pet deserves. Daily and evening care including walks, feedings, playmate, bath time and bed time with any other activities including the dog park when availabe based on weathe. Pets are free to roam while I am home and crated when I need to run errands. They are treated like the rest of the family.

“We were very happy with the care Sailor received at Angelica's house. Sailor loved playing with the other dogs and we were kept up-to-date about how she was doing. We knew she was well cared for.”
“We are so grateful to have found a trusted caregiver for Wiggles! Tamara is so incredibly nice and flexible when we had an unforeseen circumstance change our plans. Wiggles had such a good time playing with her friends, we were worried she was disappointed to come home! Thank you Tamara, Maggie, and Paulie!”
“Shirley is without a a doubt the best sitter we’ve ever had. It’s clear she truly cares about animals with her whole heart and treats every time she sits our pup as if he were her own. We keep coming back to Shirley again and again because of how easily she relieves us of any worry about how our pup is doing, and how happy he is to be with her while we’re gone. We highly recommend her for any type of service, and especially boarding in her home!”
“Katherine and her family were great to Lily during her stay. The weather was definitely not in our favor during her stay but Katie didn’t shy away from getting outside still, taking her to the dog park and bathing her as necessary due to the muddy weather. She also worked through some doggy anxiety and was great with sending photos and updates. It was great to know she was in good hands.”
“Our dog, Waffles, has been staying with Regan for over 5 years and he always has the best time! Regan is wonderful to work with and we know that Waffles is always well taken care of and having a great time when he’s there. She’s our go to anytime we can’t bring him on our adventures!”
“Couldn’t ask for a better sitter or boarder for our dog. And that means a lot because we are very picky when it comes to our dog. Kind, thorough, responsive, and actually cares about our dog!”
“Our normal dog boarding fell through last minute and Michelle and Otavio saved teh day a few days before a big week long trip for our family! Our pups were well cared for and seemed so happy upon their return. We got regular and thorough updates on them daily which made our time away more relaxing. We could see how comfortable and at home our dogs were while in their care and would recommend!”
“Baily did an outstanding job taking care of our little Greta (6 years old pug/boston terrier mix rescue). She kept us updated on Greta's stay with her and it was obvious from the updates and accompanying photos that Greta was feeling right at home and being showered with affection by Baily.”
“Angelina went above and beyond caring for our Butterscotch. Excellent communication and multiple pictures sent every day. She even noticed his itchy skin issue and offered to recommend homeopathic remedies. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Christina and her family were the perfect house for our 8 month old puppy. They were amazing with him and Charlie and their dog became fast friends. We are grateful to have found a home we trust when we go out of town. Highly recommend Christina!”

This was our first time using a dog sitter and it went really well! We were traveling and wanted to make sure our two dogs had great care and attention. Melissa made the experience very smooth and easy, and it was obvious that she cares and provides lots of love. Both of our dogs did well with her and her family, and Melissa sent photos and daily updates to put our minds at ease. We highly recommend her services, and look forward to the next time we need her help!
Holly and her family immediately welcomed Lincoln into their home and made sure he felt comfortable during his stay. Holly sent us lots of updates and made sure we knew how our boy was doing. Would highly recommend and Lincoln hopes he can visit again. He especially loved his playtime with Holly’s pups Layla and Piper☺️
Selene took wonderful care of our dog, Peanut! She sent us daily pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Peanut was happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her attentiveness and kindness, and we would absolutely trust her with Peanut again. Highly recommend!
Sandra was absolutely wonderful in taking care of Ellie! From our initial meeting to the final pickup, everything was seamless and stress-free. She kept us updated regularly with pictures and made sure Ellie was happy and comfortable throughout. We truly appreciate her care and attention. Thank you, Sandra—We will definitely use your service again!
I would highly recommend Danielle to take care of your pet. I was very nervous about boarding my dog, since I have never boarded a pet before. She was very accommodating to all of my dog’s specific needs. She also had a spacious home and a big beautiful backyard for my dog to enjoy. I believe she even spoiled my dog by letting my dog make herself at home on Daniel’s couch to sleep at night. Which I really appreciated Danielle is also great about sending pictures and lengthy updates. I would definitely board my dog with Danielle again as needed. I was able to enjoy my two week vacation, because I knew that my dog instantly liked Danielle and her home at our initial Meet and Greet. Like I said before, she is not only a nice person, but met all of my dog’s needs. Looking forward to boarding my dog again with Danielle in the future.
Zoe had great time with amazing family. I am so happy I was able to connect and find them through Rover. I was updated daily how Zoe was doing and also received pictures. We felt very comfortable to leave Zoe because we knew she will be well taken care of and loved. For future travels we will definitely reach out to them again.
We had a great experience with Chloe. She and her boyfriend took great care of our little boy during our trip. Communications were easy. They are very detailed and took the time to learn about our boy’s habits & likes/dislikes to make sure he has a comfortable stay. We would definitely have them watch our boy again.
