“Jennifer is great dog sitter! She took good care of our dog and sent us updates regularly. Our dog got along with her dogs, and we’re glad he had friends to cuddle with while we were on vacation.”


“Sabrina did a fantastic job of looking after Mili, our 8 year golden retriever while we were away for the weekend. She was always responsive and sent updates/pictures everyday. Mili had a great time and we will definitely use Sabrina’s services the next time we need a sitter.”


“Simply amazing! Michelle and Nish are so loving and caring, our Yorkie is very shy and nervous, but i could see she was having fun and was happy throughout the stay with them, they did a fantastic job at making her feel comfortable, safe, and welcomed. They also kept me aware and communicated at all times. I feel so lucky for having had the opportunity to try Michelle and Nish services, would most definitely recommend!! And will definitely be coming back to them!”


“She was so kind to woogie 🐾 she was able to care for her last minute, the same day after our primary sitter fell through due to unforeseen circumstances. She sent updated pictures each day and let us know how she’s doing. I’m glad Woogie had a great time with you”


“Our dog Curly had a great time at Sophia’s home! Her place is very dog friendly and similar to ours so we felt it would help Curly settle in faster. Sopshia kept us constantly updated with photos and videos and we could see Curly was enjoying her time so much there. When I came to pick Curly up, he was torn as to whether to come with me, or stay with Sophia! Thank you Sophia, you will have another repeat customer!”


“Megha and her husband were awesome. Absolutely no complaints. Very professional and communicative. They have a beautiful backyard for your dog to roam. They gave my senior dog lots of attention and sent many updates with pictures as soon as I left my dog there. I found that extremely comforting because I’ve never left my dog with strangers before. They also let my dog roam around so I never worried that he would be stuck in a crate somewhere. I know my little guy was very comfortable and I would definitely bring Rascal back!”


“Mollie had a great time with her 4 days stay with Pissamas. She got lots of play time and had a few new puppy friends. She came home very happy as always. We will book an another stay in a few weeks. Thank you Pissamas! You are the BEST!!!”


“We were so pleased They did an awesome job looking after DooRi. We also had a schedule change with our trip, and they were so accommodating. Extremely pleased that we chose them to look after DooRi.”


“Laura is so thoughtful with updates during my dogs day at her place. She continually gave me reassurance and alerted me of any changes. Her sweet dog loves my baby, walks were given, and always communicated well. Thank god for sitters like her. This was my very first time using Rover, and I must say my experience has been so wonderful. It’s so nice that I can work at ease and know my baby is looked after.”



“Comet loves being with Patricia along with the other friendly pups she cares for. She regularly communicates, and I really enjoy the photos & vids she sends everyday Comet is in her care.”


“Simply amazing! My Lana had a wonderful time with Jeanne that I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home. The love and care Jeanne showed Lana is what any pet owner would want their fur baby to get…thank you SO much Jeanne!”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care our two dogs received! From the moment we met Kristena, it was clear she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. Throughout the time we were away, Kristena kept us updated with messages, photos, and even a few fun videos. It was obvious our dogs were not only well cared for, but also happy, exercised, and genuinely enjoying themselves. Reliable, kind, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful, Kristena went above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found someone we can fully trust with our pups.”


“What a sweet person Margie is. Right from the start Oliver felt welcomed and at home. She explained things to us throughly, regularly sent photos, and cared for him like her own pet. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Thank you so much Margie.”


“Elizabeth provided excellent care for our dog. Shared pictures regularly and kept us updated. They plan outings and more and Charlie was super happy after his stay. We will definitely be using this service again :)”


About: I have 15 years of dog care and 4 years of cat care experience. I saved a 2-month puppy from death and took care of him carefully days and nights for a month until he’s full recovered. It makes me treasure every moment with any little ones. My pets all love me, and I taught them a lot of commands. I love pets and they are my families! :) I am currently working from home, so I have all day with pets and am able to take close care of them. I’ll let them go out and play at least 3 times per day and take potty breaks. :) I have a big fenced backyard and a big front yard for the pets to play. And there are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in my house, so pets are welcome to stay with me or take a rest alone in a quiet place. I make my home cozy and pet friendly by providing pet beds, blankets, carpets, and toys. Pets are welcome to sleep in my bedroom if needed! If I need to go to my clients’ home, I will make sure the pets are taken good care of by satisfying all their needs, and I will follow strictly to the special instructions. I’ll also leave my clients’ home nice and clean as it was! :)

“Thao was amazing with our puppy Obi. You can tell she really cared about him, from the daily updates and questions about his progress. Obi is not boarded often, so he always has a bit of an acclimation period. Thao and her mom were amazing at making Obi feel at home. He came home very happy. Thank you, Thao!!!”


“Alyn was great! He sent us a bunch of picture and videos of our dog during his stay. His home was very clean and his dogs were well behaved during our meet and greet visit. We will definitely be using Alyn for future dog sitting needs!”


“Jessica was amazing with communication and care about my dog. Really appreciate everything she did and would definitely prefer to rebook her for our next dog sitting service. I had booked her for 3 weeks of dog sitting and she did amazing job”


“I would highly recommend Jieun as a pet host. Our dog stayed at her well kept family home for 5 nights, and we felt she was very well taken of. She went for walks with Jieun’s dog twice a day and had access to the backyard for sun bathing. Jieun responded to my texts in a timely manner, send photos of our dog throughout the day, and followed any feeding or other special requests from me. Our dog had a happy and fun experience at Jieun’s place, and I would definitely recommend her.”
