“Zuleyris is amazing! From the moment I dropped off my 6 month chihuahua pup up until I picked her up. She sent me constant updates with pics and videos! I could just tell that they bonded and I knew Luna (my pup) was in really good hands. Would definitely recommend her.”


“Christine was great! She watched my beagle for a long weekend and she was reliable, sent updates, and has a great home for dogs with a nice fenced in yard. I'd definitely bring Serenity back there again.”


“I needed 5 hours of dog care for my newly rescued senior Pomeranian and I’m so grateful to have found Donna. Donna provided a calm and caring environment for my dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, and they took a 20 minute walk together. Thank you so much, Donna!”


“Sky was incredible! She is super communicative and sent me frequent updates. Drop off and pick up were seamless, as well. She is a true professional and I will 100% be booking her services again in the future!”


“Emma was great taking care of our Georgie!! Georgie was with her for 2 weeks and we had updates and photos throughout 😊 Would definitely book with Emma again!”


“Lauren is a great sitter. She will love your dog as she loves her own pets and is welcoming to both you and your dog. She is attentive and will ease any concern you have about leaving your pet. My dog clearly felt at home with her.”

“Leonard, Kathryn, and their family take care of my dog like he is their own. I know Ollie has a great time at their house and I can count on the best care for him here!!”

“Kerstyn was wonderful with Rexy, and he had a great time with the other dogs. She sent regular updates and pictures, and took him on his first real run. Will use Kerstyn again!”


“Bridges watched my dog for a week and did a wonderful job. She met me and my dog beforehand which helped make me feel more at ease, and she provided frequent updates on how he was doing during the stay. She took him on a lot of walks, and he had a wonderful time with her. I would happily have my dog stay with Bridgid again!”

“Gabriela was a great dog sitter! She kept me informed about how my dog was doing every day, and made sure to send pics and videos frequently, which I really appreciated. Gabriela was also super responsive to any messages and made me feel really comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I would definitely recommend her services!”


“Our normal rover had to cancel last minute for a family emergency and Morgan was able to meet me and Kody and watch him on short notice!! Morgan did an amazing job watching our dog Kody. He can be nervous around new people and new environments. Morgan (and Winnie) were so patient with him!! Morgan sent me so many updates which was much appreciated. We will definitely ask Morgan to watch Kody again!”


“Dana was terrific with my little guy! Lots of pictures and lots of communication and caring about my dog, as well as his comfort and belongings. She was very attentive to my description of Moose’s habits, preferences and potential circumstance that rarely needs attention yet is important to be aware of. My little guy was happy when I picked him up and that makes me happy! Highly recommend Dana!”


“Elena did a fantastic job caring for Tex! I could tell she is detailed and very responsive. She kept me updated with photos and messages. Will be rebooking in the future!”


“Faith and Arlind took such wonderful care of Ruby during my wedding weekend. It was so great to know she was in capable hands during such a busy weekend. I received the cutest photos and Ruby came home so happy. Highly recommend them to care for your pup!”


“Laura was amazing. Cinnamon Bun felt right at home with her. She took wonderful care of her and I trust Laura completely to watch her again and again.”


“I can’t say enough about how amazing and kind Soraya was to have as a sitter for our Heidi. My original plan was to take Heidi with us on our vacation, and when that didn’t work out Soraya was available kind of last minute. When we decided we may want to extend our trip, she was also flexible so that we had the privilege to do that. She sent photos and updates every day which made my mind at ease, knowing Heidi was being loved and taken care of while we were away. Normally when I have to leave Heidi with someone, and I come back, she wiggles and squirms to get out of their arms and to me. When I picked Heidi up today, she didn’t squirm so much, yet she seemed content in Soraya’s arms. So, I know Soraya and her husband loved our girl, but I also know she loved them as well.”


“Cynthia was fantastic! She consistently sent us pictures and videos of our pup, was prompt in her communication, and accommodating when we faced travel difficulties. Our dog is very much looking forward to the next time she can stay with Cynthia.”


“This is our second time with Luciana and she takes such good care of my pup! He has food allergies/ restrictions and can be a bit of a picky eater, and Luciana works with him to make sure he gets what he needs. Highly recommend!”


“Johanna was awesome! She was super communicative and easy going. I know Louis loved staying with her and Panda, and I would absolutely have her watch him again.”


“Amal is very communicative and Cinnamon was very at ease with her and her dog. She took great care of Cinnamon especially in giving her medications.”
