“Exceptional dog sitter! This marks the second time she's cared for our two small dogs, and once again, she surpassed our expectations. She provided daily updates, along with photos. The genuine affection our dogs show for her speaks volumes. Her unwavering availability during our family emergency was a true comfort. She consistently goes above and beyond, making her the go-to choice for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter. Highly recommend her for a second time and beyond!”
“After having a family emergency, I had reached out in extremely short notice to see if Lianna could watch my one year old pup for two nights. She gladly accepted and assured me he was in good care upon drop off. Lianna was great about sending pictures and videos of Zyon which brought more reassurance. Overall would rate this a great experience and I will definitely be sending my puppy back.”
“Mario is an incredible dog caretaker and truly one of the best I’ve ever encountered. He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and understands how to work with them in a caring and loving way. I trust him completely with my dog’s care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone experienced, attentive, and compassionate.”
“We’re so grateful to Tamra for the loving care she gave our sweet but older, deaf, nearly blind and anxiety ridden dog, Teddy. From the start, she was gentle, patient, and incredibly attentive to his needs. It’s not easy leaving an older dog in someone else’s hands, but Tamra made us feel completely at ease. We came home to a happy, relaxed Teddy, which says everything. Highly recommend Tamra to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and truly compassionate with animals.”
“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
“Excellent overnight stay! Our dog Tiki was well cared for, happy, and comfortable. Great communication and a very positive experience overall. Would definitely use again. Highly recommend Patricia and Tyler!”
“She is really the best! It's Mowgli's second stay, I can see how much my dog enjoys staying with Annette. She is very attentive, you can see how much she loves animals. She sends photos and videos daily, which I think is awesome. Annette is wonderful, you can trust! 🐶🥰”
“Blanca took care of Ozzy like he was her own, she was very communicative and kept us updated with pictures and videos of Ozzy. I would definitely use her services again.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sabrina watched our two dogs for one week and we had a wonderful experience. Communication was excellent from the very beginning, and her home was welcoming and well suited for pets. Our dogs were comfortable right away during the meet and greet and showed no hesitation on drop off day. We received regular updates and adorable photos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. Pick up was easy, with our dogs ready to go and all of their belongings packed and organized. We were able to fully enjoy our time away knowing our dogs were in excellent hands. I would absolutely book with Sabrina again. Thank you so much!”
“Jennifer was a great dog sitter for us! She was quick to respond & accommodated a last minute request which I truly appreciate. My puppy smelled like she had been bathed and her nails were even clipped. 10/10 would recommend and book Jennifer again :)”
“Our dog Rusty's first stay with Athanasia was wonderful! I'd highly recommend her to anyone. She was flexible, communicative, and professional - all that you could ask for in a pet sitter. And to illustrate that I'd like to highlight two things about our experience with her that stood out to me. First, when we first contacted her about boarding, she asked really good questions. That's always something that marks a good sitter in my experience. Knowing that she was actively thinking about our dog's care and doublechecking details that we didn't cover in our Rover profile really put me at ease even before we'd met her. And second, when we picked Rusty up, she had all of his stuff so well organized in the big blue Ikea bag that we pack full of his food, toys, and blankets. It might seem like something small, but it really made me see the care she takes with things. (I myself normally just jam stuff in the bag until it fits, haha.) That's the kind of thoughtful person that I like to leave Rusty with. Thanks again for the great stay, Athanasia! We hope to see you again soon.”
“Megan was amazing! We had to leave our Cali with a new sitter for the first time and she went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. She sent tons of photos and checked in regularly with updates on how our pup was doing. Cali came home happy and relaxed- We will definitely be booking with Megan in the future! Thanks for everything!!!!”
“We can’t recommend Ximena enough! She has been absolutely wonderful with our 1-year-old Maltipoo, Daisy. Honestly, sometimes we feel like Daisy prefers Ximena’s home over ours — that’s how happy and comfortable she is there! Ximena and her family treat Daisy like one of their own. Whether it's going on walks, playing, or even including her in family picnics, Daisy is always part of the action and clearly loved. What really sets Ximena apart is the regular updates she sends — pictures and videos that show Daisy having fun and being well cared for. She also is very attentive if there are concerns from us that we would like monitoring like her food intake or energy levels. It gives us such peace of mind, especially since Daisy has some abandonment issues from prior to our adoption. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust completely. Ximena is a true gem!”
“So happy to have found Miguel! He took the time to meet with us and our 2 dogs before booking and provided detailed information about the care he provides. He sent pictures/updates on the pups during their stay and also gave us very helpful feedback afterwards. He was amazing from beginning to end and we will definitely rebook with him in the future. You rock Miguel!”
“Gary takes care of our kids like his own. With all the fun and love they get, I am grateful for his awareness and communication during a long stay. My number one guy for me any day, any time!”
“Clio updated me everyday with my older golden retriever that had trouble adjusting to the new environment. Clio stayed with my baby and did a great job. I couldn't pick up my dog at the end of the stay and Clio was so generous to drop off my dog back to my place! Thank you Clio!”
“Selien was amazing! She was incredibly sweet, kind, and professional. She communicated multiple times a day with pictures to let us know our girl was doing great! She took her on walks everyday, fed her, played with her, and even brushed her teeth! Our dog has a hard time warming up to people, but she warmed up to Selien right away and was comfortable around her. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“He is incredibly attentive, responsible, and caring. I could tell that my furry friend was in good hands right from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness throughout the stay. I highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”

Mario is an incredible dog caretaker and truly one of the best I’ve ever encountered. He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and understands how to work with them in a caring and loving way. I trust him completely with my dog’s care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone experienced, attentive, and compassionate.
I can’t recommend Lianna enough! She cared for my dog Bandit in her home for two weeks while we were moving, and she was absolutely amazing. From the start, she made me feel completely at ease. She sent consistent updates, pictures, and videos, which really reassured me that Bandit was happy, comfortable, and being loved while we were away. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. Bandit came home relaxed, well cared for, and clearly adored his time with her. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and truly great with dogs, Lianna is the one. I would 100% book with her again!
Excellent in every way! Took meticulous care of our Charlie. Gave him plenty of love and he came home very happy and excited. If you are looking for someone who will love your animal like you do, Arianna is the one. You can have peace of mind when your pup is in her care. She even responded to our dog’s anxious behavior in a professional, sharp, and protective manner—we couldn’t have chosen better also given this was his first time staying away from us. Her service is above par! Thank you Ari!
Ness took loving care of my baby while I was out of town. I really like her home setup with a backyard play area with grass and very tall fences. She's also fine with the dogs on the bed which is what my dog prefers. The neighborhood is also quiet, and, bonus, she's on the way to the airport.
We had to leave town for a family emegrgency and couldn't take our pup. It was our first time leaving him and Aarti made sure to take great care of him. She was able to take him in sooner than we thought too but she was very accomodating and I know we left him in good hands. Teddy was tired when we picked him up so I now he had a great time with all the other pups.
Wonderful! This was the first time when I left my baby with a sitter and to add to my stress level it was for an entire week. As I have a guard dog (giant breed), I went for a meet and greet to ensure that her backyard would be safe for my dog, and there are no ways for him to escape. Corina put my mind at easy. Very open, friendly and just a genuine sweet person who loves pets. I received photos/videos and messages with updates about my dog's wellbeing every single day. My search for a sitter is over! I would definitely bring him back when I need a sitter. Thank you so much Corina!!
