2. Candice M.

“Candice is great. She was able to watch my puppy Harley last minute for the day. He had so much fun! It was a great experience. We would definitely use her again.”


3. Bella S.

“Bella and their family were incredible. They took on my puppy’s request super last minute and were so flexible and accommodating for my times! My pup had such a fun day playing with another puppy and is ready for a great nap. Family was so kind and my pup clearly had a great time. Bella did a great job communicating throughout the stay. I’d absolutely trust them with my fur family again!”

“My pups change home happy and tired! Karen did an amazing job caring for them. She was very responsive and friendly! They will be going back soon!”


5. Jen P.

“Liza had a great time with Jen!! Jen is really caring and was really attentive to put Liza at ease, not always a simple task as Liza has separation anxiety. Jen was very responsive, took a bunch of pictures, and sent me lots of updates. I really appreciated it and highly recommend her!”


6. Nathan & Meredith V.
“Nate is the man! We've been relying on him for dog sitting for several years now, and each time, we're blown away by the care and attention he gives our pups. He sends regular updates and photos, which always put us at ease, knowing our babies are in such great hands. If you're looking for a sitter who truly loves and understands dogs, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend him.”


7. Sharon M.

“Sharon was very good and patient with my baby pup. She took him when so many others wouldn't. Thank you Sharon for caring for my Koda. I highly recommend her.”


8. Sunaina D.


“Sunaina was great with Loki! He had such a great time with her and her family. She sent us many pictures and updates periodically of him during his time with them. She listened to our instructions on his allergies and food timing, and took him out for walks. We were super happy that he was happy! Definitely will book again when we are back in the area!”


9. Alexandra S.

“Alexandra did a great job communicating and Bubba had such a wonderful time. She updated me throughout the day with pictures and any questions she had! I will definitely be booking with her in the future.”


10. Cassie S.
“Cassie has watched our border collie Elvis numerous times. Elvis loves the attention and care she gives him. She follows our schedule and special request we have for Elvis. We definitely would recommend Cassie to watch other fur babies!”


11. Claudia T.
“My husband and I were looking for a pet sitter for the weekend when our usual person cancelled on us somewhat last minute. One of my friends told me to reach out to Claudia. I’m very specific about people that watch my pets because not only are they my babies but they’re a lot to handle (I have a senior cat who takes medication, two dogs, and a bearded dragon). Claudia was so amazing, she kept us updated while we were gone, and she’s just one of those people that you can tell genuinely enjoys the company of animals. She’s been our go-to ever since! I would recommend her any day!”


12. Wendy C.
About: At one time, we were breeders of Champion Golden Retrievers, and have raised many a pup, from small to large breeds. From Bernese to Yorkies, we love them all! Our furbabies are a Shorkie and Shih Tzu who are well behaved and make great hosts and playmates! Large pastures and trails on which to walk, so lots of exercise. Our canine guests will receive lots of love and attention! They will be welcome in our house if well-behaved, and treated like one of the family during their stay. We have excellent references from previous guests and do our best to make sure our every guest feels right at home. We follow all care guides given by our guests owners, including giving meds and treats as owner provides us. I or my husband are home with our guest dogs during stays. Our guests get lots of attention and care. We want to care for them as they are used to being cared for at home. We have a fenced yard. We back up to mikes of hiking trails for walks and runs always on leash. We walk 3-4 times a day or as often as match the home life of our guests. They are cared for in our home and integrated into being cared for as part of our family with 2 little welcoming fur babies.


13. Danielle C.


“Danielle is wonderful! She has been hosting Samson for daycare twice a week since he was 10 weeks old (now almost 15 weeks). Samson loves to play with her resident dog Sarge and comes home exhausted every time. He gets so excited when he realizes he's going to Danielle's in the morning!”


14. Yvonne & Joseph K.


“Yvonne and Joe are the best! They’ve been so kind to our family and accommodating to our dogs. We’ve hired quite a few people off Rover and Yvonne and Joe are the best. Very trustworthy and intentional about caring for our dogs. Thanks so much for your continued kindness!”


15. Paul & Erin F.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Currently have 1 medium size female Lab named Sophie and two indoor male cats named Herbert and Harry both over 10 years old. Dog and Cat boarding will be a fulltime service. No other current obligations. All emergency and pet care needs would be available 24/7. Currently my husband works full time and will be available part time and I will be available for full time pet care. Our home has a large closed in breezeway that opens up to a fenced in 1/4 acre backyard. We have two indoor male cats and a 6 year old female lab named Sophie to be a friendly companion during your pet's stay with us. Our home is located within 2 miles of Delaware's White Clay Creek State Park and Maryland's Fair Hill Natural Resource center if pet owners approve of hiking adventures.


16. Huimin Q.

“Huimin is awesome! It was my first time leaving my baby Marley with anyone, and I immediately felt comfortable when they met. Marley had an awesome time with Tutu as well. Huimin kept me updated with photos and videos frequently. I can’t thank you enough.”


17. Geosselyn D.
“Geosselyn is a very caring person with a HUGE heart for animals of all kinds. I've known her for over 10 years and I trust her with my pets care. She will love and care for your pet as if it's her furbaby.”


18. Alex G.
About: I have had dogs of all kinds my entire life and animals have always kept my mind busy. I need them just as much as they need us. I am always home without a strict schedule, so any routine you present for your pet will be pretty easy to adapt to and follow. I have a huge fenced in back yard that allows the animals to get the exercise that’s needed and multiple crates of different sizes if needed.


19. Kourtney E.
“Kourtney is absolutely amazing with my fur baby ( Nya 4 years old 75lb border collie lab mix). Her passion to care for the K9 community and eagerness to continue to learn about best practices supersedes her ability to adequately meet anyone's expectations for dog sitting in any capacity. I will always refer to Kourtney for my fur baby's needs.”


20. Julia S.
“Julia always puts animals first when taking care of them. They are the top priority for her and I’ve never seen someone care so much for animals they’ve only just met. Julia is a pet caregiver who goes above and beyond in every respect and is the best choice for taking care of your pet.”
