“Amazing sitter for our furry child! Breanna was very reassuring and friendly and has the cutest little yard for the pups All of our fur babies got a long very well and I know tater tot had a blast Very good at responding on time and making sure tater was comfortable and happy 10/10 recommend!!”


“Max is excellent! He accomodated a short turn around time reservation with an extension. He cared for our little maltese as one of the bunch lol. Max provides pictures to keep your mind at ease and amazing, consistent communication. We appreciate you Max. If we are in the area again, we will look forward to seeing you again.”



“Anna has taken care of my babygirl Daisy for short and longer term stays for close to a year now. I always book with Anna because I am always assured that Daisy is in good hands. Daisy is kind of high maintenance, emotionally, and I am pretty selective about who I leave her with. Anna sends regular updates of Daisy cuddling with her or hanging out with other cute pups that she is pet sitting, and Daisy is always excited to see Anna when I drop her off, so I'm really happy with the help and peace of mind that I get from Anna's pet sitting service.”


“We have continued to book with Karen. She follows all care instructions and goes the extra step to make sure Charlie is comfy. She is very communicative and sends lots of pics and videos. She also takes Charlie on extra walks. I know he loves being with Karen because he’s always super excited to see her. We’ll continue to book with Karen!”


“Dave did an amazing job!!!:) I appreciated all the updates of how my dog was doing. He is usually a very nervous dog and he seem to thrive at Dave's. Dave was very accommodating in everything and made leaving my dog for a week easy!!! I appreciated his willingness to meet before hand to introduce my dog to him and his home. We had a wonderful experience and are very thankful for his excellent service!:)”


“This was our first time using Rover, and we had a great experience thanks to Jared! He is responsive, sent us photos and updates, and you can tell he cares. In the past, we boarded our pup at a dog boarding facility; however, we saw a noticeable difference between how our pup behaved after we picked him up from Jared's compared to the boarding facility. Would highly recommend!”


“Lisa and Brandon took wonderful care of our pet! We had so much fun looking at the photos they sent, and we felt that our pet was safe and enjoying their stay. I highly recommend Lisa and Brandon.”


“Absolutely fantastic sitter. Such a big, beautiful yard for the dogs and an extremely experienced expert. Would completely recommend for anyone looking for care for their pup!”


“Ezgi was so sweet and our dog enjoyed his stay! She kept me updated all day and I will definitely book again! Thank you so much for taking care of my old guy! We appreciate you so much :)”


“Justine took such great care of our Abby! I loved getting photo updates. Justine was also very attentive and let us know when she had any concerns at all. We’ll definitely be using her services again!”


“Juan and his family took excellent care of Monty while we were out of town for 3 days. He got so much exercise playing with their dog and going for walks. And we looked forward to the daily photos and videos, watching him enjoy his time with them. We’d definitely use Juan again!”


“Our fur baby absolutely loved Ms. Mollie. Ms. Mollie was very communicative and sent us daily updates with lots of photos. We appreciated her attention to detail and how she made sure my our fur baby was comfortable and happy. Thank You Ms. Mollie.”


“Wonderful family! Our dog is very energetic and anxious when away from us but he fit right in and had a blast. Sweet D. sent us updates and replied almost immediately when we were planning drop-off/pick-up times. We are very happy and plan to use them in the future. It was a relief knowing our dog was having fun, staying safe and being cared for while we were away.”


“Tangina did an amazing job taking care of my puppy, Emma! She provided plenty of photos and videos, which helped put my mind at ease while I was away. Emma was clearly happy and well cared for, and I appreciated Tangina’s thoughtful communication throughout the stay. She even went above and beyond to help carry Emma’s belongings to my car when I picked her up. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tangina to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”



“Ryan was amazing with my pup! Informed us daily on how he was doing and walked him frequently! Very responsive even with this being a last minute booking for us! Would definitely let him watch our pup again!”


“Felicia was fantastic. My dog felt an immediate connection to her and seemed he had a great time. Her and her kids are lovely. The location is very convenient as well.”



“My Dixie and I moved here recently from the West Coast and she has been really out of sorts. She went to stay at Marti's and she had a good time. We received at least 2 updates a day with photos which put my mind at ease. I didn't worry at all. I am so happy to have found someone I trust with my precious baby dog.”


“They did an amazing job of taking care of Luna. They sent me daily pictures and Luna seemed like she was having so much fun! I can’t thank them enough for taking care of her for me while I was away. I would totally use them in the future - if they’re interested lol.”


“Highly recommend 10 out of 10. I was rushed to the hospital last minute and she only had a few hours notice that I needed a sitter and was happy to step up for a whopping 4 days! She kept me updated and coordinated with my son very easily with the chaos of my being hospitalized. I cannot thank her and her family enough for opening their home to my beloved blitz. She insured he ate well, he had a great time and her fenced in backyard and he even got some social time with her daughter and a friends chihuahua. He really had a great time at his doggy vacation. My dog had no signs of stress and we had a great ride home and he settled right back in without any incident. Excellent doggy caregiver!”
