6. Ryn U.
“We couldn’t have been happier with Ryn as our dog sitter over the holidays! Finding someone who truly understands and can handle dogs with behavioral challenges is no easy task, but Ryn completely exceeded our expectations. Two of our dogs have big feelings—one is fear reactive, and the other struggles with anxiety—and Ryn managed their unique needs with so much patience, care, and skill. She even made real progress with one of our more challenging pups, which was such a huge milestone for us. Ryn’s extensive experience as a dog trainer really stands out. She took the time to learn about each of our dogs before their stay, asking thoughtful questions and ensuring she was prepared to meet their needs. Her setup is perfect, with a big, secure fenced yard and an environment designed for both enrichment and safety. It’s clear she puts so much thought into creating a space where dogs can thrive. One of the things we appreciated most was how Ryn included her own dogs in a way that felt safe and comfortable for everyone. She has an incredible ability to read dog behavior and ensure all interactions are positive. Whether it was playtime, downtime, or moments when our dogs just needed a little extra reassurance, Ryn handled everything with ease and professionalism. Throughout the stay, Ryn kept us updated with regular, thoughtful communication. Her updates included how our dogs were feeling emotionally, what they were eating, and even little stories about their day. The photos she sent showed just how happy and relaxed our pups were, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. What truly sets Ryn apart is her genuine love for dogs and her ability to connect with them on an individual level. She doesn’t just care for dogs—she truly understands them. Her ability to build trust and confidence, even with dogs who struggle with fear and anxiety, is remarkable. We came home to happy, groomed, relaxed pups who were clearly given so much attention, playtime, and love. It’s everything you could hope for as a dog parent. Ryn went above and beyond to make sure they felt safe and happy the entire time. If you’re looking for someone who is not only amazing with dogs but also truly gets them, Ryn is the absolute best. Whether your dog has special behavioral needs or just deserves the best care possible, we can’t recommend her enough for training or sitting. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Karissa was A+++ for my dogs when we left them to stay with her for a week. She sent us photos every day and they were obviously happy in her big yard and staying active. She will be my first choice for a sitter the next time I am out of town. Thanks!”


8. Melissa B.
About: I was raised with dogs and cats my whole life, but I have 15+ years of caring for dogs and cats as an adult. I currently have a senior dog and a 1 year old kitten at home. I work an office job from home full time, but my schedule is flexible. I can make most mornings or evenings work if I know in advance. I will follow your instructions. I’m willing to take your dog(s) for a walk around your neighborhood. If you have a fenced yard, I’m happy to stop by your home to let them out for a bit mid day. If you have a cat and are going out of town for a few days, I'm happy to stop by to give them food, water and socialize/interact with them (as much as they will want me to). If you need boarding, I can also watch your dog in my home as long as they are OK with children, get along with other dogs and can tolerate a cat. Let me know what you need!


9. Mandy H.

“thie first time I have ever left my dog with a stranger so I was a bit nervous. however I was very pleased with Sophies care by Mandy. she sent pictures and videos daily and I appreciated that because it put me at ease.

I am happy with Rover because now I feel like my dog will be well taken care of using your service.”
