Marlene was wonderful! She was very responsive, kind, and reliable. We met before, so she could be introduced to and ask questions about Birdy. She has a great home environment, and I definitely felt like my pup was in great hands. I would be more than happy to work with Marlene again (as would Birdy!)

I've booked Danielle twice now for my dog, and I am quite picky about who I'm willing to leave him with. She took great care of him, and I will call her next time I need to leave town. I appreciated getting photos of him, and even a video. Thank you!

About: I absolutely love all animals! Growing up, my family always had a minimum of two dogs at a time. Since I was young, I have been trusted by friends and family members to watch over not only their pets, but their plants as well. As an adult living alone, I have only ever had 1 cat at a time in my home, however, my plant game has grown to a bit of a jungle! On top of taking care of animals, I also LOVE a clean house and I take it upon myself to always leave people’s homes cleaner than I found them in! I’m currently looking to open my own business doing just that: Pet sitting and deep cleaning while folks are out of town. In my opinion, there is nothing better than coming home from a vacation or a work trip to a clean home and a happy animal! I have been working with Meowtel watching cats for the last year and have found it to be exceptionally rewarding. Recently, my sweet cat passed away and I left my demanding job. Due to these circumstances I have decided that since I have the time and opportunity, opening my home to board would be a great way to expand my offerings. I look forward to meeting this community and giving dog (cat, plant, etc.) owners peace of mind while they travel, get stuck working a double, or just want to support their companion with an extra afternoon walk. I left my extremely demanding job in December after my cat got sick. I wanted to spend as much time with him as possible. Since his passing, I have focused on taking care of pets and cleaning homes. This has brought me more joy than any demanding corporate job, and I hope I can continue to work in this capacity for many years in the future. My schedule is very flexible! I am an animal lover living in an animal free home at this moment. Because of this, I am open to boarding. I am not concerned with animals who want to sit on the couch with me or lay on the bed, but I will follow the rules of what they’re allowed to do at home if you prefer that. My home will be their home, and I will do everything to make sure that they feel safe and cared for while in my hands. I’m an active person and love taking long walks and hikes. So, if that’s something that your dog is into, I am happy to schedule an adventure that meets their mileage needs! On the contrary, if you have a small dog or one who just wants to go out for a stroll around the block or to do their business in the grass, I’m happy to do that too! I have a small unfenced side yard to accommodate. I live on the second floor of an apartment building with no elevator, so if your pup is not able to do stairs and is too heavy to pick up, my home wouldn’t be a good fit.

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the start, Tierra was incredibly considerate of our dog’s routine and needs. We loved getting the daily updates and photos—it really put our minds at ease while we were away. It was clear our dog felt right at home at her place and was treated like family. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Eiko is such a fantastic sitter who we truly trust. She has watched our dog twice now while we are traveling, and both times we felt very comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. The first time she watched our dog, she arranged a meet and greet. The second time, our dog, who is normally on the anxious side, was so excited to see her house again that he ran right up to the front door. She is very caring and friendly and sends us lots of updates. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience boarding Zoe with Wenxin and her partner. We’ve been dealing with some allergies and they helped us keep up with her probiotics and cleansing foam. Zoe was well exercised and came home fully relaxed. They also went above and beyond with dropping her off at our house since they were in the neighborhood that evening, as well as supplementing her food when I forgot a meals worth. Highly recommend especially if you want your dog treated like family!

We have booked Alexis for regular dog walks but this was our first time entrusting her with dog boarding for a two week stay while we took our honeymoon. Alexis was so wonderful to keep us informed every day of how Poppy was doing! Communication was A+ and Poppy came home so happy and healthy. She also did drop ins to feed and water our cats and fish who were independent enough to not need boarding but daily snuggles and making sure all was good at home. Would highly recommend Alexis as someone very professional, responsible, and reliable!

Zay was exceptional. She was kind enough to agree to meet with Bruno before I boarded him with her, and I was immediately surprised by how good she is with dogs. Bruno stayed with Zay and her dog for 6 days and I could tell Bruno was relaxed and enjoying himself. Many of the pics I received were of Bruno asleep or enjoying a snuggle session under the blanket, or him exploring on a walk. I received constant updates and Zay replied to all my texts promptly. I was very nervous as this was the first time ever that I boarded Bruno but Zay made the whole experience reassuring: while I was gone I never felt anxious about him not being comfortable at Zay’s place. I will definitely contact her again if I need help in the future!

Alexis was wonderful to work with and I’m grateful we were able to leave our pup in great hands! This was our first experience with Rover (though not the first with sitters) and everything was smooth, straightforward, and easy. Alexis was attentive and responsive, and sent photos every day so we could see how our dog was doing. Will definitely book with her again in the future! Thank you Alexis! 🙏💕🐾

If you are looking for a pet sitter that will care for your animal as if they are one of your own, look no further. A selfish part of me wants to not leave a review at all so that we can keep this lovely couple all to ourselves and our dog, but that would not be fair. Robert and Brian- thank you truly for taking such incredible care of Athena and all the updates, especially the photo dumps. We (me, my partner, and Athena for sure) appreciate you both so much!
