“Sterlin took care of my dog for a few days and I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She kept in touch with pictures and text and that means a lot to me. He had company and loved being with other dogs. I will definitely be hiring Sterlin again”
“Peppa had a great time with Mariah! This was Peppa’s 1st overnight with Mariah. I received lots of pictures and updates which made me feel comfortable that Peppa was not only getting good care but she was having a great time! We will definitely use Mariah again!”
“Jeff was wonderful with our 2 three-year old Yorkies. It is comforting to know that our Boyz were in such good hands. When we dropped them off and picked them up, they were happy and relaxed just like home. Thank you so much again, Mr. Jeff. Gratefully Yours, Debbie, Gary, Finley Pumpkin, and Java Blue Olsyn”
“Lisa was wonderful with Theo my cat. He responded very well to her gentle, soft spoken, and kind manner. He often slept with her and would make bread while sitting on her lap. She has plenty of space for him to run and play. The thing I'm most grateful for is the fact she doesn't have carpeting. One very unique and creative thing she did was using a small canvas she'd take the colors from his coat and applied them to the canvas and put the canvas in a zip lock bag. Than using Theo's paws would let him create a special piece of artwork. Which she gave to me when I picked him up. She is truly Amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to leave my fur babies with her again.”
“Mae Ann was wonderful with Daisy! She and Nikki were so sweet and welcoming. We felt good about leaving our girl in such good hands. They have a fabulous set up and Mae Ann sent a couple of pics each day. We would definitely ask her again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs a lot throughout my life. I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood all the time. 4 years ago I got my own puppy and trained him. Now we walk around 5 miles everyday I walk my dog multiple times a day and I love to go on long walks. I have a waitressing job in the summer and I like to spend the rest of my days outside playing with dogs. I care for my puppy so much and I am always playing with him and never leaving him by himself. I make sure that he is always happy and healthy
“As always, my baby was safe and secure. I’m afraid to say she’s the best because she may never have openings! She really takes your dog and make them hers for the time they are there. My baby ‘Bear’ was a shelter dog so I was extremely worried. Not a problem! She took care of our old man (old Rottie) and after that, I have no hesitations leaving my dog with her. Thanks for caring for my baby like he was your baby!”
“Jax had so much fun during his stay with Jared. I didn’t have time to miss Jax because of the constant updates and pictures that Jared sent me. I was so happy with how much attention and love he got. Jax is already looking forward to his next stay!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I hit the jackpot when I found Ashley. She got back to me quickly before I booked Her and answered my questions. Y dog felt comfortable when he entered the house. She kept me informed while we were away. He was happy to see us but I think he was saying you are back already.i would definitely use her again.”
“Denise was absolutely wonderful and we had such peace on our vacation as she took such great care of our senior dog and gave her the one on one special attention and love she requires. What a great experience and hope that in the future if our little girl is still with us for our next trip we will bring her to Denise. She was truly a godsend for us and our little girl.”
“I’m so happy that my Millie and I found Marci! First of all, Marci responded to my request almost immediately. Second, her communication up until drop off and then during Millie’s 2-night stay was exceptional. It was the first time my dog had spent a night away from me (she is 5) so I was a bit nervous. Marci sent pictures throughout the day and let me know exactly how Millie was doing. My dog looked so happy and content running in the yard and snuggling inside their home. I’m grateful to have found a wonderful family with a sweet little dog of their own. Will definitely be re-booking!”
“Catherine-: Damien was great, we needed Shay watched last minute and not only did Damien watch her she treated her as her own. We loved the photos that we were sent and loved that she was able to feel like home while staying there. A plus was that Shay was able to have bonding time with another dog. We will definitely use Damien again. Juan-: Damien was amazing last minute booking and first time user of the app and she made it great and the photos and message updates was amazing hands down the best dog person there is no words to say that comes close to the professionalism she showed an I will definitely use again and only her Shay came back happy and with treats that she loves I wish I could give her a 100 star rating thank you for everything!!”

“Bridie was fantastic. Rosie seemed to take to her right away. Our event finished early and she left dinner so we could pick up Rosie a bit early. Wonderful. We will look to have Bridie sit Rosie every time we’re in Philly.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Penny’s stay! From start to finish, she was communicative and kept us updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, so we always knew Penny was in good hands. Penny came back happy, relaxed, and clearly entertained—she even seemed to have had her own little vacation! We’re so grateful for the care and attention Penny received and highly recommend Janet’s services to any pet parent. We will definitely be booking again!”

Natalie F.
“My family has used Natalie multiple times since getting our puppy! We have a mini golden doodle that was a Covid-dog so he can be extra needy and sometimes anxious. He never feels that way when staying with Natalie though!! She sends us update photos of them on walks and when he’s just being extra cute :) I would definitely recommend Natalie to any other dog mamas out there. She is someone you can trust!”
