“This was Ivy’s third stay with Evy and Yiwei and I am very grateful for their loving, dog friendly home. The first two were short trial runs since I was very nervous about leaving my furry partner for nine nights after spending every day and night with her since March of 2020. Evy and Yiwei sent me adorable photos and notes almost everyday to keep me feeling connected and confident in her care. When I picked up Ivy, she acted as if I had just come back from the market — which increased my confidence in her care. Words cannot express the relief and sense of freedom I feel, knowing Ivy has a second home she can look forward to visiting when I travel. This is the perfect home for anyone seeking a loving, dog friendly, family environment for their pet that feels like a second home. Thank You.”
“Matt was able to watch my mini Aussie Holly last minute on the day of. He took her on a walk, sent pictures of her during her stay, and was quick to respond to any text messages. Holly was in great spirits the next day when I went to pick her up. Overall good experience, would recommend, and would use again in the future. Thanks Matt!”
“Thank you so much Maisy for taking care of our pup over the weekend! We knew he was in excellent hands and reassured that he was receiving so much love from your family. We will definitely contact you for future bookings!!”
“This is the first time we left our dog Ginger in the care of Ruchi and her family, and we are happy that we did. At the Meet & Greet, we were impressed with how clean their home was and how orderly they attended to their dog guests and their own dogs. When we dropped off Ginger to stay, she immediately made herself at home. Ruchi gave us updates and sent photos and videos several times a day for the entire stay. We appreciated this as it gave us peace of mind that Ginger was in good hands. We look forward to bringing Ginger back to Ruchi's home the next time we need a sitter.”
“Mila has been such a good sitter for our pup Oona.. She never failed to communicate and gave us updates everyday which I really appreciate and gave a peace of mind while we are away. Oona was one happy dog when we picked her up which shows that she had such a good time during her stay. Will definitely recommend her and will book her again.”
“Christine and Ethan were absolutely wonderful to work with. They went above and beyond to make Willow feel comfortable and cared for, helping ease her anxiety with such kindness and patience. The regular photo updates were a lovely touch and gave me complete peace of mind knowing she was in great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Patti & Joe are absolutely wonderful pet sitters! This is the first time I’ve used Rover, and it worked out perfectly. I didn’t worry about my little Pomeranian Pedro the entire time he was with them! I highly recommend Patti!”
“Sharon and Henry were absolutely amazing! They are extremely caring and went above and beyond to make sure Tony felt at home. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which really helped ease my anxiety — I didn’t have a single moment of concern the entire time. It was clear Tony enjoyed his stay and was showered with love and attention. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly thoughtful and reliable care!”
“Amber watched my dog Squid for two nights. Squid has bad separation anxiety and struggles being away from home. Amber was fantastic and our dog seemed to love staying at her place. We’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Could not be happier with Robert (Blair) as our dog sitter for Tanner (our chocolate lab)! You can genuinely feel the love that Blair has for pets. He treats our Tanner so well that we can honestly go on vacation knowing that he is in great hands, and will be cared for every minute of the time. We even receive text updates with pictures showing the fun time being had while we are away! What more could you ask for in a dog sitter? Perfect match ♥️??”
“We had a fantastic experience with Deborah! She was attentive, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Our pup was happy and well-cared for, and we received regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. She also took our pup on walks which was great. We will look forward to use her service again. Highly recommend!”
“Jarrod and Anadee have now watched our dog twice and taken impeccable care of him! They have a wonderful home and truly care about the dogs they are taking care of like their own. Highly recommend.”
“Becky was great! She took such good care of our dog Nacho. Sent updates several times everyday with pictures and videos. You could tell Nacho was having a great time and it gave us peace of mind. Will definitely use Becky again!”
“Our experience with Kimberlee was stellar! She is professional, kind, and a super great communicator (sending us messages and photos of our pup while there). She also had to give her medication while we were away and Kimberlee attended to every detail. She made our frenchie a part of the family and our girl LOVED being there! She also has a frenchie so I'm pretty sure our Cabi now has a new best friend. Thank you Kimberlee for being so awesome and making us (and Cabi) feel at ease while on our trip!! You are the best! :)”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“This was our dog Barley’s first time staying with Irina. She is such a wonderful dog sitter. She gave us daily updates and pictures. We had a great experience and will book again soon.”
“Barbara and family was very kind and welcoming to my dog. She asked all the questions that made me feel like my girl was going to be well taken care of even to the extent of switching her sleeping habits to my dog’s. I highly recommend! Thank you so much for taking care of my girl!”

Evy and Wayne were kind and loving, taking excellent care of our 1 yo Shih Tzu Obie. They followed his requested feeding and walking schedule and sent lots of pictures and updates. Obie was safe, loved and well cared for. We look forward to having him stay with them again!!
Anadee was absolutely top notch with our senior chocolate lab, Guinness. He’s an old man and definitely a lot of work at this stage, but Anadee handled him with patience, care, and genuine kindness. Our kids loved having Guinness around during the stay and really enjoyed Anadee as well, which says a lot. She was also fantastic with our poodle, Lena — Lena was great with “the old man,” and Anadee made sure both dogs were comfortable and happy together. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!
I heard about Gautam from my neighbor who had used his service before and had great things to say about their dog staying with him and his family. Prior to booking with Gautam, we agreed to do a meet up prior to make sure my dogs felt comfortable with him and his dogs. When we met at the park, his daughter also came with him and their two dogs. Both his daughter and Gautam were very friendly and their two dogs were great too. After the meet up, I felt very comfortable with leaving my dogs with him and his family for the duration of my trip. After booking the service, the day I dropped off my dogs, Gautam showed me his house and his backyard where the dogs would be able to play. My dogs went into the backyard and started running around like it was just another day at home. They looked very comfortable in the backyard as they were sniffing around. I loved that they had a pool as my Labrador loves swimming in pools. After leaving the dogs at Gautam's house, I later received an update and video of my two dogs that very same day as they already made themselves at home running around in the backyard playing. During the next couple days with Gautam, I would receive updates throughout the day with text, videos, and pictures. I was very pleased to see how well my dogs were having fun playing and swimming. The day that I went to pick up my dogs, they were some exhausted puppies which meant they had a great time. When I brought my dogs home, all they wanted to do was just sleep since they had so much fun for the duration of their stay at Gautam. If you're looking for a sitter, I would recommend Gautam without any hesitation as they took care of my babies very well and I didn't feel anxious about leaving them with Gautam for my trip. I will definitely be using Gautam in the future as a sitter for my two dogs.
