“We felt very comfortable leaving our Sheltie Winston with Brittney (and family!) and the daily updates and pics were great so we never worried while away. Definitely will use her service again!”
“Tara is a great care giver for my dog, a large lan. She has a a dog equipped home and a fenced in back yard. She’s cheerful, accommodating, and provided healthy snacks. She and her husband took her for walks multiple times per day. Totally trustworthy and communicative. Best Rover find ever!”
“Stephanie did an amazing job with my Otter while I was gone on my trip! She took him to a dog party and walked/hiked with him every day. I received tons of updates and pictures. If you are leaving town, leave your pup with Stephanie, she is awe-inspiring.”
“Karina and Teresa were absolutely amazing with Evee! From start to finish, they took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease. They sent tons of photos and videos, which I really appreciated; it was so clear how happy, comfortable, and well-loved Evee was the entire time. 🥰🥰 Evee came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. You can tell they genuinely love what they do and treat your pet like their own. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would 100% trust them with Evee again. Highly recommend!”
“Liza did great with my golden doodle. She was very quick with her responses and provided updates on my boy everyday. He seemed to have a good time with her. Highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“We were very nervous to leave our Zeus with someone we haven’t met before but Cassandra made us feel so at ease in her beautiful home. Zeus did so great and it was great that Cassandra sent updates and picture and video of our boy. Highly recommend!”
“This was Luna's first time being away from us and I was so afraid with how she might be with someone new and away from her family. To my surprise she did fantastic with Lauren and had alot of fun! I received many pictures of Luna throughout her time away and little updates. She socialized with other pups, smelled amazing since she was bathed before she came home, and I can tell she was comfortable because when I got there she wiggled her little rump and was so excited to see me but she also would go back to Lauren to say goodbye. It was the sweetest thing. Thank you again, Luna will definitely be back!”
“Our dog was well taken care of, and Stephanie kept us apprised of how he was doing. Her dog is a sweetie and very calm, and patient with ours. Drop off and pick up was ideal at her tidy dog friendly home.”
“We’ve been so fortunate to connect with Bri and have her lovingly take care of our dog -who can be a handful-on repeat occasions. Her cheery disposition, and genuine care for animals is what keeps bringing us back to her. Leaving our pup for an extended period of time can be daunting, but knowing he’s in the care of Bri makes it a million times better. We recommend her wholeheartedly!”
“Thank you, Ariel! Georgia enjoyed her “vacation” in your beautiful fenced in yard. Thank you for your hospitality and great communication throughout! We really appreciated the daily pictures too. So glad we found you!”
“This was my German Shepherd, Evie's, 3rd stay, 1st overnighter, with Nadjeska. Evie had a great time playing with the other guest dogs, and Nadjeska sent us several photos to let us know she was doing great. No drama, no trauma, just a happy dog at the end of her stay.”
“Bianka took great care of our dog Scooby, who presents with many challenges, including anxiety and blindness. She spent a lot of time with Scooby, such as by walking, petting, and playing with him. She even kept him company and played calming music for him when he woke up in the middle of the night. Bianka also sent frequent updates that included pictures. We are so grateful for Bianka!”
“Jayme was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly flexible with our schedule and always responded quickly to our messages. We felt so at ease knowing Finnegan was in such good hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and that he had a great time with her dogs. We highly recommend Jayme to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“My dog’s first time staying with Mariana. She came back happy, clearly receiving enough care and stimulation. I was sent plenty of pictures and updates, and did not worry while my dog was in the care of a new sitter.”
“Zuleima did a great job of taking care of my dog for a weekend trip. She sent me lots of photos and her children were extremely kind to my dog which I appreciate. She also responded super fast to my request, so I highly recommend!”
“Christopher was very accommodating and flexible. He went out of his way to pick up Cameo at a more ideal timing prior to my departure for my work trip. He sent daily updates and pictures of Cameo playing and answered any questions that I had. Cameo got lots of play time and came home happy and exhausted :)”
“I can’t recommend Bruce enough! He took such amazing care of my babies while I was away. From the start, communication was smooth and professional—he sent photos, updates, and made me feel completely at ease. My pets absolutely adored him, and I could tell they were comfortable and well-loved the entire time. Their routines were followed perfectly, and I came back to happy, relaxed dogs. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable, Bruce is the one. Truly the best pet sitter I’ve ever had!”
“Sai was fantastic with watching Max while we were away for the holiday weekend! There was a ton of updates with photos of how he was doing, and Sai was awesome at communicating based on my schedule while I was away. Would highly recommend!”
