“We had a great experience with Lane. He was great with our dog, who had never been with a boarding program or dog sitter before, and kept us updated with how he was doing. We are confident our dog got great care with Lane and liked the environment he was in. Thank you so much!”
“Steve and Lisa provided many photos and videos during our pup’s stay. They have two dogs that are very dog and human friendly. They have LOTS of laying places and toys. We will contact them again when we need to board our dog again.”
“Heather and James were amazing! Their setup is perfect—plenty of room for play, comfort, and a safe, welcoming environment. Communication was top-notch, and they even fit me in last minute. I’m pretty sure my dog Yogi was a little hesitant to leave… which says it all! 😂 It’s clear they’re experienced with animals and treat every pup like family. I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy Rover sitter!”
“Deborah was absolutely wonderful all the way around! I felt so comfortable leaving my big fur baby with her. She sent pictures and updates, and treated him like her own. I’m grateful he was able to play in a wide variety of settings, sleep comfortably, and even come home ready for a nap! This was my first time leaving him with someone, and I will absolutely come to Deborah first for the second time around. I feel comfortable using Rover as a whole starting out with such a positive experience. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Kayla was awesome with our dog, and super flexible. We had to go out of town unexpectedly and I’m so glad we found her. She even watched our baby ducklings for us. Highly recommend!”
“Joyce was an absolute pleasure to work with. My vacation was last minute, so I was extremely grateful to find the Rover app and website, but finding Joyce was even more of a godsend. I could tell right off that she loves dogs, has a passion for dog sitting, and strives to make both animals and their owners as happy as possible. She provided periodic updates, images as well as a video, and set my mind at ease. Thank you very much Joyce, I really appreciate it.”
“Cheyanne took such great care of our dog Ace while we were on vacation! I can tell that he had so much fun and enjoyed his stay. Without a doubt, we will continue to use her services in the future!?”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. Family and friends trust me to take care of their pets. I’m a trustworthy person with any dog I want this to be a full time opportunity and I believe this is something I can be good at and give everyone my best In our home, they are family and I love to play, feed and take them on walks. I’m trustworthy with any dog I’m around. Thank you
“Kitty took wonderful care of Einstein while we were away for the holidays. He’s an energetic, enthusiastic boy and she kept him exercised and happy and calmly redirected him when he tried to follow his nose somewhere he shouldn’t. Normally when I pick him up from boarding, he’s so excited and relieved to see me and can’t wait to leave, but when we picked him up from Kitty’s, he came and greeted us happily and then led us back in like he wanted to show us all the fun things he did while we were gone (just like a kid at camp!) We will definitely be in touch with Kitty next time Einstein needs a place to stay!”
About: I have been fostering cats for four years now. I have experience with any kind of cats: kittens to senior cats, sick and healthy. I have also been boarding, walking and taking care of dogs for the past year on my free time; puppies and senior dogs mostly so far. I have given medicine plenty of times, took many pets to the vet and loved on them a lot. Your pet won’t be any different. I have a lot of indoor toys for cats and a huge indoor tree as well.

I will do whatever you recommend me to do and whatever your pets like to do. I also send daily pictures with comments to keep you updated on your little furry babies.
