1. Susan O.
“We felt so safe being away from our puppy for the first time by leaving her with Susan. Susan is both aware of the needs of sensitive dogs, and also active and fun! I think they did a different dog park or hike every day. She has a fenced in yard with a lush patch of grass which our apartment dog loved. Susan was totally comfortable with feeding a raw food diet, and was attentive with sending photos and updates. We will definitely have our pup say with her again!”
2. Cassandra & Jason K.
“Cassandra and Jason were AMAZING - the best Rover care we have ever experienced. We booked them for an extended stay on short notice when our initial plans changed. They were so communicative and always sent prompt updates & photos. They took Junie on numerous walks and were always asking about her routine to maintain consistency. We feel so fortunate to have found Cassandra and Jason, and I would recommend them to anyone that wants the best care for their pets. We’ll be sending Junie their way for all future stays!”
3. Rui P.
“Rui’s home was a haven for our little Sugar dog! She loved playing with the other little dogs Rui was watching and came back being more consistent in her “stay” command which was an awesome help to us. When we left she put her paw on the window sill and watched us leave like a movie scene or something ? she really had a great time.”
4. Rose V.
“Rose was wonderful!! She clearly loves animals, and gave my dog a ton of loving care. She’s got a huge backyard and a great setup to look after multiple animals. Will be going back :)”
5. Chris N.
“Excellent! Will definitely rebook. Chris was able to brush my little girl and she hates to be brushed. She came home looking very good. He was also sensitive to our Yorkie's delicate stomach, above and beyond the call of duty.”
6. Lily B.
“Lily is wonderful. She was super accommodating to my schedule and took great care of my dog, Toast. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend!”
7. Manuela Diaz H.
“Could not have asked for a better dog sitter! She was so sweet, sent me multiple updates each day, and was always quick to respond to me. If I could give Manuela 10 stars out of 5, I would!”
8. Tyler E.
“Tyler is so easy to work with and always takes great care of my dog, Chuck. You can tell he loves taking care of our furry family members and is incredibly responsive.”
9. Zoe M.
“My Lucy had a blast staying with Zoe and her family. I was happy to receive the photos that she sent during Lucy's stay. It's always comforting to see how well she's being cared for. I look forward to Zoe caring for Lucy in the future.”
10. Ryan P.
“I've had Ryan dog sit for Ponyo several times now! He is really quick with communicating, always friendly and respectful, and just a great responsible dog owner and dog sitter. Ponyo is always sad when we leave Ryan's house because he has a blast over there. They go on daily walks and play together or with other dogs and Ryan's dog Fritz is a sweetheart too! Highly recommend!”
11. Samuel H.
“Sam was great with our dog and so easy to work with. He made sure our pup got all the attention and care he needed and then some—our pup was sad to have to leave. I appreciated the consistent updates and photos. We will be booking with him again.”
12. Amy T.
“She was amazing and sent tons of photos and updates, which I appreciate! Witten had a great time and we will be using her in the future. Highly recommend!”
13. Alex K.
“Love the daily feedback! They’re awesome”
14. Brittany B.
“This is the 2nd time Brittany has watched Jolean and as usual she had such a great time and was taken care of very well! Brittany is consistent with her updates and I would 11/10 recommend and am happy Jolean has a trusted friend when I’m out of town to watch her!”
15. Lily C.
“Lily was a lifesaver, stepping in with less than 24 hours' notice to dog sit for me. They were incredibly responsive and kept me updated with photos. My dog was happy and well-cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Lily for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially in a pinch!”
16. Megan H.
“Will definitely book again!”
17. Asha C.
“Asha is great at tending to pups and always made me feel aware and connected to what they were doing or how my pup was feeling. While traveling, Asha asked for all the details about my pups needs, wants, and comfort and respected those bounds throughout her stay. Bonus benefit is she made friends with Asha’s pup Carl! Appreciate all the pictures, updates, and glad she had a great stay!”
18. Jeff B.
“Will definitely use Jeff again, Copper loved his stay! Thank you so much!”
19. Lilia F.
“Lilia is an amazing dog sitter! She sent tons of pictures of our pups playing, walking and cuddling. They looked so happy! When we got them back they were in great moods and we could tell they’d gotten enough exercise. We would have Lilia watch them again anytime!!! Thank you, Lilia!”
20. Rhys & Margaret K.
“Rhys and Margaret were great! My dog seemed to like them a lot and had a very comfortable and pleasant stay at their place. I would totally recommend them!”
