“Whitney and Michael T. are absolutely incredible! From the moment I met them, I could tell they are not just pet caregivers but true animal lovers with a wealth of knowledge about our four-legged companions. Their warm and loving family creates such a nurturing environment that I immediately felt at ease leaving our precious June Bug in their care. What really sets Michael and Whitney apart is their ability to provide younger pups with invaluable socialization opportunities. They create a safe and fun space for dogs to learn how to interact and just be dogs. It’s rare to find caregivers who understand this so deeply, and their patience is unmatched—even when a little accident happens (which, let’s face it, is inevitable with young pups). They handle everything with grace and kindness. Their training skills are nothing short of extraordinary. June Bug came home not just happy and well cared for but also better behaved! They went above and beyond, and I could tell they treated her as if she were their own. I truly couldn’t have asked for more. Michael and Whitney took the most amazing care of our girl, and I’ll absolutely be using their services again. If you’re looking for someone to care for your fur baby with love, expertise, and patience, don’t hesitate—Whitney and Michael are the best!”
“Maureen and her family are naturals! They definitely had a way with dogs. Our puppy Kyoto immediately took to them and their lovely and spacious home. Maureen sent many updates and videos to show that Kyoto was being cared for and was happy in his new environment. Maureen even enabled him to socialize with another puppy successfully. I am so grateful to have found a safe and happy home away from home for Kyoto. Thank you, Maureen and family! Until next time!”
“We have used Lucy twice now - first time for 4 days, second time for 2 days - and we plan to use her again in the future. Our dog likes going to her place as there are usually multiple fur friends for him to play with. (He was happy to go there the second time, so that tells me he has enjoyed himself.) Lucy is friendly and quick to respond to communications. Her years is fenced and it seems like the dogs get to spend a lot of time out there, which is great for our dog.”
“Julianna was great with our dog. She kept was updated and also sent us pictures of our dog. She responded quickly to our message which was nice of her. Will definitely recommend her to others and definitely book her again as well”
“Dhara and her family were friendly and caring hosts for our little man Mr. Darcy. That includes their pooch “Coco” who was playful and not territorial with a visiting doggie scampering around the house. Dhara sent plenty of updates and photos during Mr. Darcy’s visit as of an upcoming longer stay. The stay could not have gone better, and we’re very confident and comfortable leaving Mr. Darcy in the caring hands Dhara and her family going forward. Its clear that they’re “dog people” who care.”
“Dottie had another fabulous stay with Jaimie. Jaimie took excellent and diligent care of her and she came home happy and tired after playing with Ollie. Can’t wait for our next visit. Thank you!”
“This was the first time Joey was staying at Tanvi’s place and he loved it. We were initially a bit worried, as this was a 14 day trip and Joey hadn’t stayed with any sitter for this long, but Joey had a blast. We got daily pictures and videos of Joey as well. I would highly recommend Tanvi.”
“Pam was very welcoming and knowledgeable about all dogs! This was my first time using rover and she made me feel comfortable for my dog to be dropped off. Will definitely use her again. She also sends daily pictures of my dog and it”
“Raj is an excellent dog sitter. Raj easy going, paying attention to detail and accommodating. Raj kept sending pictures and updates throughout the stay. Will book again, no doubt.”
“My baby was with Thana and Subangi for one night, and he had an amazing time. Thana was sending pics, videos and updates constantly. I am happy with their service. I will use them again”
“Victoria has been such a gift to my dog Tabb and I. I am temporarily in the area for work and Victoria walks my 15yo terrier Tabb. She also was willing to watch Tabb for a few days while I was away. She has been kind, responsive, punctual, and accommodating. I highly recommend her.”
“Casey loves Catherine and it’s so nice knowing she’s happy and in good hands when staying there. I appreciated the updates and know Casey enjoyed her stay. We had some issues with her foot prior to our visit and Catherine was great to accommodate what we needed for her. She’s quick to respond and flexible; which is much appreciated. We would highly recommend Catherine!!”
“Gerry is the best. We just left our puppy with her for his first overnight stay and he was received with lots of love and attention. Would definitely recommend Gerry to others.”
“Kate is very responsive and accepted our last minute request .Wally was happy with Kate. Kate sent multiple updates and photos of Wally during stay and took good care of him.Will definitely book back in future.”
“We needed a dog boarded for the Thanksgiving week. Debi was shown as available, we messaged her and replied so quickly. We cannot say enough about her. Lily stayed with Debi and her family during our vacation week. It was difficult for us, but Debi made it a wonderful experience. We got frequent pics, videos and texts which we could see how wonderful she took care of Lily. We appreciate all you did for Lily. It was a fantastic experience. We highly recommend Debi and we will definitely be using her again.”
“We had such a great experience with Lineth! She watched Bruno for a couple of days while we were out of state and took amazing care of him. She followed all of our instructions perfectly, gave us frequent updates, and truly treated him like he was her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Oreo enjoyed his stay and made friends with their dog Bentley, this was his first time being away from home and it was such a good experience, I think he will want to go back 😂😉.”
“He was amazing, I was nervous to drop my dog off for the first time but he kept me update with photos and messages which helped me and gave me reassurance. Thank you again!”
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“first time boarding with Kiana and it was great! She communicated well and sent lots of photos, and Joy seemed like such a happy girl when I picked her up! Looking forward to her watching Joy longer during the summer especially knowing how great of care she gives dogs!”

Kiana really saved us in a pinch, Frankie's stomach was upset before a really important trip and Kiana took amazing care of her while we were away. She gave her lots of rest, and fed her well and helped nurse her back to health. I would recommend Kiana to anyone who needs their dog well taken care of!!
I cannot rave enough about Jessica! She gave my Trixie a home away from home. My dog suffers with separation anxiety and is a rescue we adopted only a year ago. The entire time Jessica was responsive sending pictures and videos keeping updates on how she was doing. After just a day Trixie was bopping around and cuddled up next to her. I was able to rest assured that my dog was in good hands and able to enjoy myself on my cruise. Jessica has that magic touch and must be a dog whisperer because Trixie is very hesitant to warm up to new people. She is Trixie's home away from home and is our go to girl!
Britney was very communicative and sent cute pictures that showed Gaia out on activities, which was much appreciated! Britney was also flexible and worked with my somewhat hectic travel schedule to make sure I could drop off and pick up Gaia when it was best for me. Would absolutely book again!
