If I could give Jacqueline 10 stars I would!!! She took AMAZING care of our Blaikey during her stay with her and her awesome family. She was sweet, attentive, loving, affectionate, and accommodating to our sweet little girl. Her daughter was amazing with Blaikey and so gentle and kind with her. She sent pictures and updates every day and went out of her way to make sure Blaikey was comfortable and felt safe and secure in their home. Their dog Mocha was a wonderful friend to our dog and so sweet to her. They really loved each other 🥰. I will absolutely utilize Jacqueline again to watch our dog and recommend her to everyone!! She is amazing and will treat your dog like family because to her- they are!!!!😁🥰♥️

Lynn was absolutely WONDERFUL with Loki! We had to make arrangements for travel before we got him so we were worried about having him in someone's care so soon after he came to us.. but I could instantly tell during our meet and greet, that Lynn was the right person for the job. We got daily updates and she worked with us on a pick up time. I would 100% recommend her to anyone and will absolutely be using her again!

Sara & Cassy were amazing with watching our dogs. We have never allowed anyone to watch our dogs before except our parents and close friends, and we felt so comfortable with them. They did a video call with us beforehand, and we felt truly at ease. They assisted with ensuring our dogs got to their house safely as they watched them after our dogs were done with their role at our wedding. They are quick and efficient communicators, and took amazing care of both of our dogs, sending adorable updates throughout their stay. They packed up their stuff upon pickup as well. They both went above and beyond and we can't thank them enough for taking the best care of our babies. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

If you cherish and love your pet as much as we do definitely use Charley ❣️❣️❣️❣️I don't believe there's a better person for you to leave your pet with then Charley & her family!!! Brutus came home calm and completely happy! If there was a 10 star rating she would get it , hands-down she is the best !!! You will never have to worry a minute on your trip, if your pet is with her!!! I can't say enough how blessed I feel that I have found Charley!!!

Bailey did a great job watching my cat. Took care of him well and even isolated her own cats when mine was being uncomfortable around them, despite their friendly attitude toward him. When I came to pick him up she had all his things packed and even had him in the carrier which is always the most difficult part. I hope Arlo gets a chance to visit her again in the future!

Great experience for a first-timer puppy parent. Brynn keep me updated with Grace's good and mischievous behavior. Brynn texted and answered text in very attentive manner. Me and my wife often take up to 8hr road trips to visit family, now Grace will never be left home alone again. "We found Brynn and her family".

Rebecca was the best! We had never left our baby with anyone. We are never away from our babygirl. We went and met her and her family. They was both the nicest persons ever. The house and yard was clean and a very good vibe came from them and their home. When we took Roxi to Rebecca, we told her that she is in training, and the things we needed her to do during her stay. She did everything we asked of her. She answered all my text throughout Roxi's stay. And sent pictures. I will definitely use Rebecca if we need another sitter.

Kassandra was very thoughtful and gentle to my pet. I could tell my pup enjoyed her stay b/c she returned happy and did not hide behind the couch in angry protest ha ha! I so appreciate Kassandra’s attention to details and true concern for my pup’s well-being. I highly recommend! But please do not book her on days I wish to ;) as I would like first dibs for her caring for my pup!

Our dog had the time of his life at Julia's! She took such good care of our boy. Our dog stayed with her for 10 days and he was treated so well. She communicated very well leading up to the booking and throughout the stay sent photos and updates frequently. I would 100% book with Julia again!

Helen and Eddie were superb!! They watched our two dogs while we were out of town and were super communicative and reassuring. We have a very old bulldog and a very VERY active large breed puppy. Not the easiest combo! And they were fantastic. Will definitely be our go to in the future!

Marisela did a great job keeping our pup safe and healthy! The fenced in back yard was a huge plus as our pup was able to run through the sprinkler and have fun on a beautiful summer day!

We’ve been staying with Lindsay for a couple months now, and she is the best! My dogs can be difficult (one is a nervous rescue, and the other is a giant breed that can sometimes be overwhelming), and they took to her, her husband, and their sweet puppy Blu super quickly - which is totally unusual for them! They get SO excited when we turn onto their street, and run straight to the house when we pull over. On top of her great attitude with pups, she is super flexible with pick-up and drop-off times which is a huge help when you travel often! I’d totally recommend Lindsay to anyone.

First time using Rover. Dysen was very nice and answered all of my questions. He was even willing to meet my pup beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. He was up and ready for arrival and helped me unload the kennel from the car. Pickup went smoothly, I changed the pickup time last minute so he wasn’t home but his family was and they were equally as nice and helped me load the car. My dog was happy and healthy when I got him back. Highly recommend.
