“5 Stars! The communication, overall experience, and trustworthiness, photo updates, care for special needs, following instructions, and peace of mind were all above and beyond expectations. They received personalized attention (feeding, meds, walks) with photos and daily updates. They showed genuine love for our little dogs and made sure they felt safe and happy. Highly recommend their boarding services.”
“Mallory watched my 3 dogs while we were on a day trip, loved the pictures, looks like they enjoyed themselves. I'm glad to hear they were well behaved & welcome back! Thanks!”
“Brooke was so good with our pup. She even helped him get potty trained while we were on vacation. She sent us videos, pictures, daily updates and even tips on training our dog. She’s very responsive and trustworthy. We didn’t worry at all and knew our puppy was in great hands! I cannot recommend her enough for your dog sitting needs.”
“Nella was amazing! She watched my German Shepherd, Max, for almost 2 weeks. She texted daily updates and ensured he played with his favorite ball every day! I recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their fur baby!!”
“Mikala was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Remy and treated her like part of the family. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Remy was happy and comfortable. Mikala was also incredibly flexible and understanding when my drop-off plans changed multiple times, and her communication was excellent from start to finish. She even reached out after I picked Remy up because she found one of Remy’s bowls and offered to ship it back to me. That level of thoughtfulness really meant a lot. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I would absolutely trust Mikala with Remy again. Highly recommend!”
“Awesome job with our little ALLIE! Gretchen was very responsive to our texts and she sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on how things were going.. Greatly appreciate Gretchen being able to watch her around the holidays, and on a little shorter notice than normal. Would definitely allow Allie to stay again sometime.”
“Last minute booking. Excellent care of our fur ball. We were updated with regular photos and chats about Ozzy's days. We hope to have Gerrad watch Ozzy many times in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Kaitlan did a great job accommodating my last minute request and put my mind at ease while I was out of town visiting family with updates and pictures. My dog came home happy and healthy, would definitely book again. Thank you kaitlan!”
“Dylan and his wife provided top-notch care for my baby, keeping me updated with many photos and videos. I'm not sure who had a better time on vacation, me or my puppy. Thank you for taking such excellent care of her.”

“Ashleigh was great with all aspects of our dog's stay. Great communication before and during the stay along with pictures of how our dog was doing. Lucy was comfortable with Ashleigh and her home, and we look forward to using her again!”
“Our black lab, Jack, seemed to have had a great time with Aaron and Jennifer. He was happy, bouncy, and completely non-stressed after his 2-week stay in their home. He obviously took to them quite easily, as they shared photos of Jack all snuggled up with one or another throughout his time there. I received periodic photos letting me know that he was warm and happy.”
About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.
“Took great care of Oakley ! We felt comfortable leaving her with them. She seemed to have fun! We don’t trust many people but with them we did. They have 2 other dogs who seemed to like our dog ! Thank you guys appreciate it.”
“Payten was an exceptional dog sitter for our two pups during their week-long stay. Her house and yard were perfect for our dogs to play and relax in. Communication was timely, and she was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Payten's friendly demeanor made us feel at ease leaving our pets in her care. Highly recommend!”

Currently, we can offer service whenever you need it. We’ll be home all day to make sure your doggie gets all the attention they need to make their time away from you less stressful.

About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willard
I have a bit of an erratic schedule and my plans can change quickly. Charles and Sammy took my boys on short notice and were very flexible with the timeline of my trip. Merle and Duke are my two dogs, they are 8 years old but still have youthful energy and a need to play and explore. While I was an away we received daily photos of them engaging with other dogs and going on walks. It was a real peace of mind for us knowing that the dogs were being cared for both physically and mentally. 10/10 would recommend Charles and Sammy to anyone.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Willard home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Willard.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Willard sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
