17. monika m.

“Our usual Rover was unavailable and we needed a last minute dog sitter for the day. Monika was available and we’re so happy we met her! She was super responsive, happy to do a meet and greet before we confirmed the booking, and sent us lots of photos of our dog (who doesn’t really like other dogs by the way) playing with her dog Lexi and son! She always let us know how Nate was doing and was good about asking questions for when to feed him, his bathroom schedule, etc. She has a semi fenced in yard and lives on a quiet street convenient to Route 15 if you’re driving that way. Would be happy to have her watch our dog again in the future!”


18. Wendy Johanna B.

“Wendy truly went above and beyond for us! She graciously accepted our last-minute request during a time when we were in desperate need (due to our friends suddenly becoming unavailable). From the moment we connected, Wendy’s warmth, kindness, and consideration ensured us that our pups were in great hands! We are grateful to have found someone so genuinely dedicated and dependable, especially on such short notice! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”


19. Margaret B.

“Margaret was an amazing caretaker for our 6-month old puppy while we were away for four nights! From the very first interaction we had together—a detailed phone call reviewing all of our preferences and needs and approaches and philosophies—to frequent and detailed communication (with photos!) of how our dog's visit was going, we felt at every turn that we—and our pup—were in the absolute best of hands. Thank you, Margaret! We, and Fred, will be back =)”


20. Samantha D.
“I was very grateful to have had Samantha as a dog sitter! She is super flexible with the schedule and made sure that my pup had a great time! She treats my dog as if it was her own and was very quick with communication. I am definitely looking forward to scheduling future dog sitting appointments with her!”
