Catharine sent daily updates and communicated very well before and during the time. It was so nice to know that the dogs were in such great care with a family that enjoyed having them.”

“Just wonderful! Camilla looked after our 6 year old cockapoo for 2 weeks. There was excellent communication before and during his stay. She updated us every day with several pictures and videos of him on hikes, walks, outings at the park, playing with her children and relaxing with the family. She is a lovely person and it was obvious from our first meeting that she would take great care of Finn. From the videos she sent, we could tell that our pup loved her and her children and they paid a lot of attention to him and welcomed him as part of the family. They ran with him at the park and he even got to join in on playing basketball. Honestly, I think he misses them all. We will definitely be booking Finn in with Camilla again.”

She was flexible with an early drop-off and a later pick-up, which was incredibly helpful for us. Our dog absolutely loved her and was so happy and comfortable with her. She also kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was doing well. We highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future. We’re so happy we found her!”

“Thank you for watching Pete! Always a great experience when leaving my dog Pete with Shannon. The constant updates were appreciated! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with him :)”

“Ollie stayed in Lynn’s house for 4 nights and it such a wonderful experience for him. Ollie plays a lot with other dogs, they were having fun either outside and indoor.

I am so appreciate Lynn take care Ollie and make he feels comfortable.”

He has been a very kind person with my dog, sending pictures, schedules, and updates on how my dog was doing. He took care of my dog, and I feel that he did it just like I would have. Jayson is a gentle person with dogs; he connects very well with them, and you can sense that you can trust him. Thank you, Jayson, for taking care of Alma.”

“Emmi was amazing with my puppy! She kept me updated with photos and check ins the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind.

I would absolutely book with Emmi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”

About: Hi Everyone! I can’t wait to hangout with your dog and/or cats; and give them the love, respect and attention they deserve. I know we’d all love to do that ourselves but it’s just not always possible unfortunately. I have 6 of my own cats at home with my husband. Our dogs passed on a few years ago and sitting through rover has allowed me to connect with amazing humans and their super cool pups! I’m comfortable and able to walk multiple dogs at once if needed, Whether we’re walking or hanging out at your place, I will ensure your dog is treated with the love that I treat my own pets with, which is a lot. I will make sure they are fed the proper foods, and medications if necessary and make sure they stay happy and healthy while they await your return. I hope we can chat soon, and arrange a time to meet you and your lovely fur-iend(s)! I’d also like to thank all my clients for their wonderful reviews! It is very much appreciated! ❤️ I currently work full time Monday-Friday 8am-430pm. I am able to do weekend, as well as extended stays. My husband and I can book up our schedules quickly at times with visiting friends and family, as well as other travel, so the more notice the better to fit you and your fur fam into my schedule! I have a fenced yard but boarding is decided on a case by case basis as I need to discuss it with my family and ensure my cats would be okay and not stressed out excessively during a boarding. Everyone’s happiness and comfortability is important.

“Came last minute to help us out and did an amazing job. Cannot recommend enough for drop-in visits. There was a ton of rain and we had a minor leak, Izabella went above and beyond and cleaned it up and let me know immediately. We so appreciated her help.”


“Nova has been exceptional at taking care of our 3 cats and keeping us in the loop with pictures and details of the visits. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs drop-in visits.”

“Katelyn will take care of your pets like they are her own. She is a pro at handling meds and her detailed daily updates helped us enjoy our time away. We will absolutely book her again.”


“Brittany did such a wonderful job keeping our cat fed, cared for, and entertained! We had total peace of mind knowing she was giving him snuggles and love. Brittany was attentive, sent lots of photos and videos, and responded promptly to messages. Our house was spotless when she left. We will definitely rebook her for future house sits :)”


“Taylor took great care of our 3 cats and our home while we were away. Everything was spotless when we returned home and it was clear our crew was well taken care of and happy while we were gone. From start to finish, her communication was excellent. She sent thoughtful updates and photos and completely made us feel at ease. We recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“3rd time's a charm! Frankie was very happy to see Shelley on his 3rd visit, and I could tell he was confident and excited to see other dogs this time, which is so great for me to see! He was also not so 'clingy' when I went to pick him up, he was happy (and tired) from playing and visiting :) Shelley took great care of him while I could go and get lots done! <3”

“I felt very comfortable leaving our (almost) one year old puppy with Cindy and Marc and when we picked her up we could tell she had a wonderful day. She was well cared for and enjoyed running in their fully fenced yard. We hope to book with them again!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jean. She treats our pup, Jolene, like part of her own family and consistently goes above and beyond for us. Jean is incredibly flexible with scheduling and always puts the safety and well-being of the dogs first. Jolene comes home from her time with Jean happy, fulfilled, and clearly well cared for. Jean does an amazing job balancing all of Jolene’s needs while making sure she feels loved and comfortable during both daycare and overnight stays. She truly is the best pet sitter anyone could ask for!”

“Pei took good care of Nala while we were away in the city. Nala had fun with Oscar and Pei, running around in their beautiful backyard. She took Nala out for a hike, and she was a tired pup coming home! Thank you, Pei. :)”

“Samantha was amazing and made the overall process very comfortable. We had to leave our 4 month old Cavapoo (Kylo) for the entire day with her and in the morning he wasn’t feeling great but she still managed to take care of him. Samantha provided constants updates with cute pictures of Kylo and that ensured that we were at peace. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter”

“I am so lucky that I found Jayson. Our dog is usually shy at first, but she clicked with Jayson. He is kind, caring and I feel so relieved when she is with him for doggy daycare. Jayson responds very quickly and communicates very clearly. His dog, Arnold has made our girl feel comfortable, which is amazing, as she can be apprehensive at times. Jayson will provide lots of photos during the day and keeps me updated on her walks (or hangouts in the backyard when it is too hot). His photos are always accompanied by a text, telling me how she is doing, how her walk was, when she had dinner, etc. I love that Jayson always gives off a calm and happy demeanor, because it not only makes our dog comfortable, but I do not worry at all about her while she is there. If you are looking for someone who provides a fun and calm space, a very chill doggy companion, and lots of care, I 100% recommend Jayson as your pet sitter/walker.”

“Sara and Rick took excellent care of Ruby. We received many updates of fun adventures and socializing with their two dogs. Ruby came home happy and we wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again.”

“Deepti and Sachin were grate! They sent lots of updates, and were great about his special diet. They asked lots of questions to get to know my boy beforehand and were great about listening to my concerns. Casper came back happy and Health after a good day!”

“They are definitely experts with 15 yrs of experience, knowing how to make dogs happy as ‘dogs’ also as ‘pets’ at their amazing home, including 10 acres of forest.”

“Catherine is a very responsible and gentle person. She took good care of our dog. Send me lots of photos and keep me updated. She asked a lots of information about my dog wrote it down in a notebook before hosting. My dog had a great time at her house and he really enjoyed the time with the kids too. Very recommended❤️?”

“I took Lucy for a meet and greet the day before. Lucy could hardly wait to get in Brittany’s door the next morning. She had a lovely day with Brittany, a completely reliable dog sitter.”

“Ed and his family were fabulous. Cooper made himself at home immediately upon getting there. My husband said it was so nice when the entire family came to the door to say goodbye. It was great knowing Cooper was in such good hands.”

Gail accommodated an early morning drop off so we could catch our flights. And we got lots of pictures while away which we loved. If you need someone to take care of your dog, and love them like you do, don’t hesitate to contact Gail !”

“Pei went absolutely above and beyond in caring for my dog, Louisa. Louisa is a nervous mastiff and can be quite particular, so finding someone I trust with her is no small thing, and Pei exceeded every expectation. From the start, Pei created such a calm and welcoming environment. Louisa was given the time and space she needed to settle in at her own pace, and it was clear she felt safe to gradually explore, enjoy the trails, and grow more comfortable each day. Pei kept me consistently updated, which gave me huge peace of mind. The updates were thorough, reassuring, and showed not just experience, but genuine care and affection for Louisa. What really stood out was the extra effort and attention to detail. Louisa is an extremely fussy eater, and Pei took the time to make thoughtful adjustments, adding toppings, adapting her meals, and ensuring she stayed well fed and happy. That kind of effort meant so much. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and feel incredibly relieved and grateful to have found such a wonderful “home away from home” for my sensitive girl.”
