Keren is fantastic! Her home is such a wonderful place for a dog to stay, and she was a complete professional from first contact until we picked up our Callie. Our pup seemed very happy at the end of the day, and we got great feedback about how she did. I think it would be really hard to find a better sitter on Rover than Keren!

Nieves is such a nice person! Our dog Buddy doesn’t usually warm up to people very quickly, but he was best buds with Nieves from the get go. She and her grandkids got along with Buddy like Mac and cheese. We really appreciated her taking him for the day so that we could go for a long mountain bike ride. We highly recommend her to any dog parent! She’s fantastic!

Paul takes great care of Cozy and always sends pics and videos. Cozy was pulling to get to Paul’s front door when we arrived and obviously feels very comfortable at his house. Thanks Paul! Cozy is looking forward to next time.

Jenna was quick to respond to our last minute request and was very accommodating! My dog can be very anxious whenever he's not with me, but somehow I felt at ease having Jenna and her daughters watch my baby for the day. Thank you again for taking care of my baby!

I will definitely have Hannah watch my two small dogs again. She was very attentive to them, taking them for walks during the day, taking pictures, and letting me know how they were doing. Hannah was extremely accommodating to my needs. She allowed me to drop off the dogs much earlier than the time we had originally agreed on. I had furniture movers coming that day, and they changed their pick up time. She is a very considerate, sweet person, and my dogs were not stressed at all when I picked them up.

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals my whole life, I care deeply for them and I highly value their health and well being. I’m experienced in taking care of dogs, cats, reptiles, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rats. I know how to take care of both young and older animals. I work a full time morning job, but I’m off at 1pm so I’m available M-F after 1pm, but I’m available all day long Saturday and Sunday. I live in a very safe environment for pets, and I currently have two friendly puppies who would love another friend to spend time with. I will play with your dog, walk them, frequently take them to go bathroom, and I will be their companion all day long. If you just need me to come over and pick up your dog to walk and/or play, I’d love to do that too.

Jacob and Leilani had a fun day. He’s a sweet, intelligent guy that has great tips and calm energy. I feel that’s exactly what she needed was that perfect match! I was so glad to find Jacob and that he was available within a day. That is a rarity! He had Leilani run as much as she wanted. She’s super happy! Thanks Rover and Jacob! Leilani’s Dad

Sandy really loved her time with Denise and Quarky. She tried to run back into Denise's house as we were putting her in the car, so we'll definitely have to book again, the next time we're in Santa Cruz. Denise was easy to communicate with and drop-off/pick-up was a breeze.

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner. I enjoy the exercise and would love to walk your dog either around the neighborhood or in a dog park or in one of the numerous open spaces around Aptos. As a retiree, I enjoy the exercise of getting my daily walk with my own dog. I would love to do the same with your dog to keep your dog exercised and to keep up my exercise regimen. At my home, I have a young dog with a fenced in yard on a cul-de-sac neighborhood in Aptos. I live near a big open space and I am also happy to walk your dog in your local neighborhood where your dog will be most comfortable.

Jennifer and her family are great! Bennett loves playing their dogs and cuddling on the couch with everyone. Jennifer makes the whole process so easy and is great at communicating needs, updates, and photos. I will absolutely continue taking Bennett to Jennifer for daycare or boarding and would recommend her if you’re looking for somewhere safe and comfortable for your dog to stay.

Jennifer was wonderful with our young dog Teddy, 16 months old Maltese mix. He spent the day playing and Jennifer send photo updates throughout the day. She cheerfully accommodated my last minute request for an extra day. Always prompt with her replies, she really helped make our trip to the Gilroy area a more relaxing stay. I would highly recommend Jennifer’s services and would definitely choose to book Teddy with her again. Thank you, Jennifer!

Nancy was a dream come true. Our puppy wasn’t feeling well when we dropped her off and Nancy welcomed her with open arms and kept us updated throughout the day. I felt like our dog was in the best hands possible to take care of her when we couldn’t.
