“We have boarded our dog with Caroline a number of times and have always had a great experience. This time was notably exceptional. Our dog had an unexpected medical problem come up the day before a boarding stay. Caroline was so accommodating and happily tackled the complicated regimen prescribed by the vet. She takes great care of him, we trust her completely, and she will always be our first choice for boarding!”
“absolutely amazing sitters! we’re so flexible with any inconveniences on my end and my dog had an amazing time. Sadie immediately went to the window and started crying after they dropped her off! Couldn’t recommend Margaret more”
“Mary and Skip are wonderful and caring dog sitters! Jojo loves spending time with them. They give her so much love and attention. We always feel confident that she is well taken care of.”
“Katie and Kristen were great! They were extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates. Our dog settled in quickly and was very comfortable with them.”
“Marcin was wonderful. He took Ziggy on several walks a day. He sent us many pictures each day of our dog which was very welcome. Marcin is a kind person and treated our dog really well. We will be asking him to take care of our baby again when we travel.”
“I highly recommend Katie for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter! She and her husband took excellent care of my doggo for a weekend while I was away, and I couldn't be more grateful. From the initial meet-and-greet to the regular updates and photos during my trip, Katie showed exceptional professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dog-loving sitter, look no further than Katie! I'll definitely be booking with her again for future trips. Five 🐾”
“Cooper had a fabulous time with Laura and Manuel. I got regular photo updates of a very happy puppy getting all the love and playtime and walks and treats! Will definitely board with them again😊”
“Tracey took great care of our Munchkin. She was available at the last minute and gave our dog the individual attention she needed. Sent daily pictures that we needed.”
“Whenever you consider leaving your best pal(s) with a stranger, there is always this nagging thought that "There is no way a stranger will treat my dog(s) like I would." When we went to Rodney's house for the Meet&Greet, we were quickly relieved to see that he truly is a "Dog-Person". We were greeted by Izzy, the Pomeranian, and Clifford, the Big Red Dog. Our pack of three Boxers were scrutinized by these two "Greeters" and were given the thumbs-up. Our dogs became instant members of Rodney's pack of three Golden Retrievers and two Pomeranians. Rodney is attentive and took great care with our dogs. We will use his services again and recommend him to anyone that is looking to board your family pets. Rick Shore (517) 206-6785”

“Moose had a great time with Aylin! He’s picky about new people and new situations, and it’s obvious that he was well taken care of and felt right at home.”
“Karen was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter for our little Harley. Karen sent daily photos and was a great communicator. We know our little puppy enjoyed her time with Karen. We plan on using Karen in the future to watch our fur baby.”
About: We are small dogs lovers and would love to watch your pup! Our 15 year old chihuahua passed away this year and we are looking to fill the void in our home by giving your dog the love and attention they deserve. We have a great set up with our fenced-in backyard and plenty of space to run around, in addition to living in a walkable neighborhood for dogs who enjoy long walks. While we love all dogs, we’re best suited to watch dogs ~30lbs and smaller. I work from home on Fridays and we don’t work weekends, so we’re able to give your dog all the attention they need and try our best to keep their routine just like it would be at home while they stay with us. We’ve used Rover for many years to find sitters for our own dog, so we understand how important it is to find someone you trust. We’ll work with you to understand your dog’s personality to make sure they are well-cared for and comfortable in our home.
“Catherine was great with Marlin. I got lots of updates and he seemed to have a great time! I would recommend Catherine to everyone! She was able to help with my last-minute request and I was very happy! Pick-up and Drop off were easy and flexible. Marlin had a great time and we'll keep her on the short list for future use!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Elizabeth while I was away for a family wedding. From the moment we connected, she was incredibly friendly, kind, and accommodating. She took wonderful care of my doggy, making sure he felt loved, safe, and happy in my absence. Elizabeth kept me updated with sweet photos and messages, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she treated my dog like one of her own. I’m so grateful for her care and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a warm and reliable sitter. Thank you, Elizabeth! 🐾💛”
“Laura was amazing! My dog needed some extra love since his foot was injured and she took extra good care of him. She was very communicative and a pleasure to work with.”
