“Once again, Derek and his family took wonderful care of my dog Bear while we were on vacation. He and his family treat him like part of their family, and that’s what really matters to us. Thank you so much, Derek.”


6. Ben J.

“We were impressed with how Ben interacted with our dog (Murphy). His dog experience really showed through. He seemed to understand Murphy's needs and personality. Ben has a wonderful, fenced in backyard - there is lots of room for dogs to sniff and exercise. We also appreciated the updates on how Murphy was doing. We haven't left him much and that gave us such peace of mind. When the time came to pick Murphy up, Murphy was happy to see us, but not desperate to leave! We look forward to having Ben watch him in the future.”

9. Barb K.

“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”


10. Jackie W.

“There are not enough kind things I can say about Jackie, she took incredible care of my fur baby. My mom unexpectedly passed away and I needed to leave town on very short notice for a week. I had never used Rover before or boarded her for more than one night in the 10 years I’ve had her. I had extreme anxiety about leaving her with someone else, especially during such a vulnerable time. Jackie took the best care of her, and when I say best, I truly mean the best! Nala also has anxiety when away from me and in only one day being away I was getting pictures of her with a huge smile on her face! Jackie and her family treated Nala like she was apart of their family, and gave her lots of cuddle time too 🥰. They knew she was anxious too and did everything they could to make her comfortable. Jackie constantly stayed in contact with me with messages on how she was doing and lots of photos and videos. In 10 years, Jackie was the first person I trusted with my baby and I’m so happy I did. It allowed me to take the time I needed and gave me the piece of mind knowing my baby was being cared for as best as possible. I feel so grateful to have found her, I never would have been able to get out of town if I hadn’t. I couldn’t recommend her more if you’re looking for someone who takes just as good of care of your fur baby as you do ❤️.”




11. Kathleen & John N.

“Maisy liked being with Kathleen and John - She came home happy and bouncing and her very own self. Kathleen and John are a wonderful couple who loved and cared for our Maisy for the time that we were gone. They gave us the peace of mind not to have to worry about our little one.”


12. Katie J.

“Katie is a dog lover's dream sitter! Bruno adored her, and I appreciated the regular updates and photos. She's trustworthy, reliable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. Thank you, Katie!”


13. Jessica & Luis A.

“Jessica and Luis were very sweet and took care of our furbaby very nicely. As it was our first time onboarding we were worried intially. But Jessica and luis were in touch all the time and sending us pictures every few hours keeping us updated about our furbaby which made us feel comfortable during our vacation time. They gave so much love to our furbaby and took for good walks. We would definitely recommend them and revist in future.”


14. Niratcha L.

“I feel so lucky to have found niratcha as a dog sitter for my big baby lab she took great care of him She sent pics and updates daily, and our boy came home exhausted and happy. We're so grateful to have found someone who truly cares for our boy the way we do! VERIFIED!”


15. Leslie P.

“Leslie did a great job taking care of my Pug Cooper. I felt very at ease with and knew he was in good hands for his first time being away from me for a full week. She sent pictures and responded everyday. He is normally an anxious dog and Leslie told me she played classical music at night to help him calm down to sleep. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Cleo had a great time at Lyndsey’s. She was well cared for and came home happy! 🐶😃”


17. Elson L.

“I recently hired Elson to take care of my beloved dog, Sky. while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I met Elson, I felt at ease knowing my furry friend would be in great hands. Communication was fantastic; he kept me updated with daily texts and adorable photos, which really put my mind at ease. Sky absolutely loved spending time with Elson & Axel (Elson’s fur baby) and came home happy and refreshed. It was clear that he genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being, providing plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. The attention to detail was impressive. He followed all my care instructions perfectly and even went the extra mile to ensure Sky had a wonderful experience. It’s evident that Elson is passionate about animals, and it truly made a difference. I highly recommend Elson to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be booking him again in the future! Thank you, Elson for your fantastic service! 🐾❤️”

I will definitely will be booking with her from now on. I'm very grateful to them for their great care of my pup. He even got a Christmas squeaky toy! Such a cute family.”
