Brenda took both of my dogs in last minute as we had a sitter who fell through. She kept us up to date with photos and videos throughout the day even while we were in another country! My dogs loved playing with the others and getting cuddles. I will definitely be using Brenda’s services in the future. Thanks Brenda!

Ginny and Andrew watched my Abby for a week. They treated her as their own. She was very happy and well cared for. Abby became part of the family for the week she stayed with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Ginny watch her again. Thank you.

Wanny was absolutely wonderful with Matcha! She sent us frequent updates, along with so many beautiful photos and videos (honestly better than the ones we take ourselves!) It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Matcha is still a young puppy, and she was incredibly patient and understanding with him. She kept a close eye on his playtime, made sure he was comfortable, and clearly put a lot of care and attention into his routine. When we picked Matcha up, he looked happy, healthy, and well cared for. We truly appreciate everything Wanny did for him and would absolutely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐶✨

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, a Scottsdale-based pet sitter who believes dogs deserve a loving home environment while you’re away and not a stressful kennel. I grew up on a farm with many house pets. I have 35 years of animal care experience and a special place in my heart for dogs! Your pup will get personalized care, lots of attention, playtime in a fenced yard, swimming in a pool, daily walks to my neighborhood walking trails, cuddles, and a cozy place to relax. I treat every pet like family and love sending photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your dog loves adventure or just wants a comfy couch and belly rubs, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I am currently a stay at home mom with kids in school. Our biggest strength is round the clock animal care. We treat animals as if they’re our own and with all the attention and care they deserve. I live in a gated community, with a fenced in yard. We begin our days with food and then a walk on our walking trail in my community. Afterwards, we like to swim in my fenced in pool in my backyard. The entire day consists of belly rubs, pets, snuggles, and as much playtime as your pup needs! I also help with crate training, and making sure we instill your house rules for animals here as well! As an animal parent myself, I understand that all animals require different things!

About: Hi! I’m Kaitlin, a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of a friendly Border Collie named Koko. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, so I treat every pet in my care like family. My home is calm, clean, and fully fenced, and because I spend most of my time at home, dogs are rarely left alone for long periods. Whether your dog loves playing, exploring the yard, going for walks, or simply relaxing on the couch, I do my best to help them feel comfortable and at home. I care for a limited number of dogs at a time so that each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and individualized care. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, routine, and preferences so I can help them feel comfortable, safe, and at home during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be difficult, so I provide regular photo updates and messages throughout their stay to help you stay connected and give you peace of mind. My Border Collie, Koko, is friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys having canine guests.

Kelli and her family were absolutely amazing - she eased my anxiety about leaving my dogs with someone I didn’t know last minute, sent updates and provided them attention as though they were her own! I could not have asked for a better experience ❤️ especially because I have a puppy and a very anxious adolescent pup!

Bonita was such a treasure of a find. I was so anxious about leaving our little Bodi at a boarding facility. No matter how hard I looked, I could not find one that met all my desires for our dog. I wanted, so badly, for him to feel safe and comfortable, attended to and at home. I finally came across Rover online. This was our first time using Rover and Bonita was absolutely amazing. Her home is such a warm and inviting place and so safe for dogs to stay. Bonita does some volunteer work but is retired and spends much of her time at home. So she is able to be very attentive to the dogs throughout the day. She was intentional about being at her home the day when we dropped Bodi off just so that she could help him feel acclimated to his new vacation home. Bonita sent pictures and updates while we were away (for a week), which gave us such a peace and joy to know he was happy and cared for so exceptionally. I would absolutely recommend Bonita to anyone looking for an amazing care lodging for your pet while you’re out of town for either a short or long-term stay. I would encourage you to consider leaving a tip, because her prices and service simply can NOT be matched. ???

I was nervous leaving my older dog over the holidays but I was almost immediately at ease after dropping him off with Menaj. She was so welcoming, kind and gentle with him. She sent pictures frequently and I saw him splooting, rolling around and following her around the house—like he does at home. A sure sign that he was comfortable and well cared for. He’s a picky eater and she was patient with him. She had other dogs but not too many and there’s plenty of room for them. I highly recommend.

Xavier did great with my 15 year old lab/collie mix! I was travelling out of the country for 10 days and everytime I got service I had new photos to view. He kept me well informed and I knew my dog was enjoying himself and the nice big yard Xavier has to offer.
