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!

She is the best dog sitter I have ever met. She sent photos and videos every day so I could tell my dog had a really great time with her and her dog. She accommodated drop-off & pick-up on our schedule as well.

Lucy was q great care taker for our golden retriever when he stayed with her for a week. She sent us updates and videos about him regularly. We knew from the start that he will be in good hands and he was. Thank you Lucy!

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.

This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Pam was absolutely amazing — friendly, reliable, and so caring with Reggie. She handled his insulin injections with total confidence and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent daily updates and adorable videos — Reggie looked like he was having the best time! Lots of love, play, and attention, and I could tell he was completely comfortable with her. When I got home, he was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found Pam — she went above and beyond and made our first Rover experience a total success. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Tanvi and her family were truly wonderful, as always! I can tell from all the photos and videos that Dante has the time of his life whenever he visits. He loves running around their large fenced backyard with the other doggies, snoozing on various comfy couches in their house, and getting all the pets & snuggles he could ever dream of. I would definitely go with Tanvi again (and again!) for future boarding.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Thana & Subangi. We left our golden retriever, Mango, with them for almost 10 days, and from start to finish we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and responsible hands. They took excellent care of Mango and kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which truly meant a lot to us while we were away. It was clear from the updates that Mango was happy, comfortable, and being treated like part of their family. Toward the end of his stay, Mango’s food ran out, and they were kind enough to provide their own dog food without hesitation — a small gesture that really shows how thoughtful and caring they are. We couldn’t be happier with the level of care, communication, and kindness they showed our dog. We would 100% trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Mango!

Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.

Kate provided an amazing 19-day house stay for my three year old rough collie Appa. This was my first time leaving the state and needing to house Appa for a long period, and I'm so happy I decided to go with Kate. She was very communicative, attentive, and easy to work with. She was able to meet a last-minute rrequest to give Appa medication for a sudden ear infection, and this was done without any issue. In addition to Kate being wonderful, her home environment was perfect for Appa, who can be a bit anxious at times. Through all the pictures and videos Kate sent me throughout Appa's stay, I could see she was happy, calm, and having fun. I will 100% be using Kate again in the future. Thank you!!

We were so lucky to find Debi to take care of our pups, Cooper and Bella Mia. They totally understood our pups different personality and handle each one with patient and care. We received updates three times a day (photos and video), which gave us priceless peace of mine during our trip. We truly feel that we found our pups home away from home and will definitely use them again in the near future.

Letitia was great! She made sure to update me with pics and videos every day. I truly believe Captain enjoyed himself with her dog Bentley, her children and her fenced in backyard. Being that we live in a townhome community Captain doesn’t get the luxury to run around without leash. The best part about Letitia is Captain was the only dog she dog sat during the week bc she respected the fact that he’s not fully vaccinated yet. 😊 I’ll definitely book again! Thank you Letitia.

Kiana was amazing! She was able to take in our dog on such short notice, was extremely communicative, and upon meeting her it is evident that she has the perfect temperament to put a dog at ease, especially in a new environment. We got caught in the worst gridlock traffic coming home and she was so patient and accommodating despite our pickup being delayed. Cant say enough good things!

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!
