“Michael and Lara were so amazing during Pita’s stay! Our sweet girl can be quite anxious and has a lot of energy to burn and she came back home so relaxed and tired after a wonderful stay with Michael and Lara. I got frequent updates and pictures which helped me really feel at ease and able to be present at the event I was traveling for. Stellar communication and care, would absolutely book with them again!”
“We've been searching for a reliable pet sitter near Cypress, CA, and were fortunate to find someone like Sue! She was incredibly responsive and generous in many ways.

We highly recommend Sue if you care about your dog's well-being.”

“Our dog was in great hands with Jeimy. She was really attentive to our instructions and took the time to chat with us before our boarding stay to ensure that we were comfortable and that she understood the quirks of caring for our senior dog. She sent us lots of photos everyday so we were able to see that our pup was being well cared for. We would definitely rebook with Jeimy again!”

Justin was very communicative and patient with our little fur baby. Would use him again and recommend him to anyone who needs dog care.”

Bin T.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Bin! He took amazing care of our Butter for 10 days while we were away. Bin went above and beyond—he walked Butter more than three times a day, and every time we checked in, she looked happy, well-fed, and full of energy. What really stood out was how detail-oriented and loving Bin was. He kept us updated regularly with photos and notes, and it was clear that Butter was in great hands. She also made a new friend—Bin’s sweet dog Angel—and we could tell she genuinely enjoyed the companionship. When we returned, Butter was calm, healthy, and clearly had a great time. We’re so grateful for Bin’s thoughtful care and would trust him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

As always, my pup had a great time with Kim! He was so happy to see her again, and she sent lots of photos. I could tell he was so relaxed and enjoying himself like he was really welcomed to feel at home. It’s always a huge relief to have a happy, safe place for him! I joke that he’s on his own vacation w her when I leave town, but it’s true! He gets lots of love and attention and always has a good time. 💙
Kamilah was amazing with my baby girl! She sent lots of updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My Baela loved being with her, she came home nice and tired. She even groomed her for me last minute. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I know. I will be booking her again 💕
Caroline is the absolute best!! She was available super last minute. We were going to cancel our trip, because our other dog passed 2 days before the trip & we were very worried about Cookie—she was very sad & confused. My husband, myself, & our 3 sons took it very hard also but this trip for our son’s football tournament was very important. Caroline met Cookie that same day & Cookie loved her immediately. Within 10 minutes we felt confident that she would be just fine! Caroline kept me updated every day and didn’t mind my millions of questions throughout each day. She sent me tons of pix & videos, which we really appreciated so much! She also sent me a breakdown of how each day went. Cookie was the spoiled baby with Caroline, that she is at home! She got endless belly rubs & cuddles & walks. 100/10 recommend! We will definitely be using her for our future trips! Caroline loved Cookie like her own & Cookie sure loved her💕
Thank you Donna you truly are heaven sent! Lila has always been in excellent care when she is with you. There is a reason we are repeat clients, from your kind and loving demeanor, to updates with pictures, and optional sweet treats you offer our fur baby, there is no better place for our Lila.
Kimberly, Benny, and her husband are amazing! I had to find a sitter last minute when my other accommodations fell through the day before a trip. Kimberly really saved my week by setting up a quick meet up to confirm all dogs would get along. Once in her home, she provided daily updates that showed how much she cares for dogs and how happy mine were with her. My 2 dogs came home calm,happy, and healthy. I hope she'll consider having them back in the future.
Alyssa was amazing! She went above and beyond for my German shepherd. He gets anxiety adjusting to new places and she showed him lots of love and was very patient with him. He got himself into a little trouble a few days before his stay and had to wear a cone. She was very kind to update me about his wound care and kept his cone clean. Honestly, the sweetest dog lover! Luca was also such a wonderful welcoming doggie to Hiro playing with him but also giving him space to adjust. She sent many pictures of Hiro enjoying his stay and at the end he was very happy! We previously had a small bump trying to find a new rover sitter that would calm both of our anxieties but Alyssa was such a great fit. I highly recommend her!
Lorraine was great with our dog, Ziggy. Ziggy was comfortable with Lorraine and her family immediately. Lorraine updated us with pictures and/or videos daily. Ziggy went on walks, runs and had lots of outside time in their backyard. He definitely enjoyed his time there! We would definitely board with Lorraine again. Thanks for taking great care of our pal!
I was super nervous to leave my cooper for 4 days with a stranger but Mireya made it simple and easy. She agreed to meet up a few days before our trip so we could introduce and see where cooper would be staying. She kept us updated with pictures and videos as well. Definitely will be using her in the future.
Our senior dog who is picky about everything loves Connie! We know this because she walks right up to her door when we drop her off. Connie is caring and truly just loves dogs. She goes above and beyond the scope of the booking and exhibits care beyond what we would expect with videos and pictures all throughout the stay. Thank you so much Connie!!!
Jacklyn took good care of our dog while we were away. We got lots of updates about how Lucky was doing, and the best part - lots of photos of cuddling. Jacklyn has great experience with dogs of all kinds I would say. She even goes the extra mile to have my dog groomed for us as he had some issues with his coats. She is truly a reliable sitter. Lucky came home a happy boy.
