“I am so glad to find Stephanie from Rover. She and her husband took very good care of my fur baby, and they are awesome and so easy to work with. We received pictures and update everyday, and it was so nice to see those when we were away. I always worry that my dog won't get along very well with other dogs, as a border collie. It turned out so great that he got along with Stephanie's two fur babies very well, and had a great time with them. When I picked him up , he went back to his friends for a few times and did not want to leave them, How sweet! I will definitely book with her again.”


“Amit was great with Archie! My dog is very energetic so it can be difficult to find a good sitter for him, but I felt comfortable leaving him with Amit. He sent plenty of photos of them playing together so I know they had fun! When I got home Archie took a nice long nap! Would recommend.”


“Jessica was an absolute gem when it came to caring for my dog over the weekend. From the very beginning, she made both me and my pup feel completely at ease. We had the chance to meet her beforehand, and her warmth and attentiveness immediately reassured me that my dog would be in great hands. What truly set Jessica apart were the frequent updates and numerous pictures she sent throughout the weekend. It felt like I was right there with my pup, which gave me so much peace of mind. In fact, after meeting her, I was so confident in her care that I canceled my original booking—even at the cost of a cancellation fee—and I have absolutely no regrets! Jessica is an exceptional dog mom, and I’ll continue booking with her whenever I need a sitter. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further! Highly recommend!”


“Julijai was amazing with Dakota and I already booked her for the next weekend! Great at communicating but also respecting my time while on vacation. Got lots of pics of my pup and I know she was having a blast!!”


“Bentley had another wonderful stay with John!! We love all of the pictures and updates and we were super grateful for John’s last minute availability to adjust the drop off time. Your pets will be in great hands at John’s house!”


“Lauren is an incredible dog sitter. I’ve been brining my puppy, Daisy, to her once a week for a few months. During spring break she had Daisy for almost a week. She sent daily photos, gave daily updates, was extremely proactive and responsive in all communications. She even does some training with Daisy! Additionally, her house and yard are great for the dogs to run around and play. For months, I’ve been saying, Tuesdays are the best days for Daisy as she comes home exhausted from playing with her dog and any other furry friends that are in her care. Daisy always jumps out of the car and can’t wait to say hi to Lauren and her dog Zoe!”


“Michaela was great! Very communicative, she sent us plenty of pictures of our pup during her stay, which we love! Plus she has a nice fenced-in backyard for them to run around and play. We highly recommend Michaela!”


“We had recently moved to the area and needed someone to care for our dog while we were out of town. Carla sent pictures every day and really treated our dog like her own. Carla’s care and communication are top notch. We are so lucky to have found her!”



“My pair of dogs stayed with Melissa for 10 days over the holiday season. This was the dogs' 3rd stay with Melissa and they love it. She has 2 dogs herself, kids who love dogs, and she kept in touch with us regularly. She is warm, professional and keeps a tidy, welcoming house. So glad my dogs have such a wonderful place to be in when we are away.”


“Liz, Jeff, and their family took FANTASTIC care of my dog. Constantly provided me with updates and pictures, showing how much fun my dog was having in their home. 10/10 would recommend their services.”


“Eli is so awesome! I had to change my schedule a few times and he is always very flexible!! My Skittles loves him so much!! Eli sent me plenty of pictures, he is definitely my first pick for sitting for my baby girl Skittles!!”


“Jerry did an awesome job taking care of Oreo for the past few days. He was very accommodating and communicated daily with status updates and pictures. From what I could see in the pics Oreo had a blast and was well taken care of! Highly recommended!”


“Cristina was so fantastic to work with. She was communicative, gave us pics and updates while we were away, and provided a safe home for our Great Dane while we were away. We would definitely use her again in the future!”


“My doggies love going to Robin’s house! She takes incredible care of my two dogs and she made the entire experience stress-free. Not only was she and her family kind and attentive, but they were also incredibly flexible—willing to take my dogs at the last minute when I needed help. It was clear from the start that my dogs felt comfortable and well cared for, and I appreciated the updates and communication throughout their stay. Knowing they were in such good hands gave my family peace of mind. If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and accommodating dog boarder, I highly recommend Robin. I will definitely be using her services again!”


“Fredis and his family made sure Max was comfy and got plenty of cuddles! Fredis sent pics and updates every day and was super communicative. I highly recommend Fredis to care for your pup!”


“Nicole was AMAZING! I was over an hour late picking up the pups due to unforseen circumstances and she was very understanding and accommodating. We'll definitely be back!”


“Edgar provided a wonderful safe place for my fur baby, Mylo. I greatly appreciated the pics that were sent. I will not hesitate hiring Edgar for my next sitter need!!”
