“Myya kept my fur baby Bella while I was out of town. Bella is the true “scaredy-cat “ and does not warm up quickly to people. Even though she had her apprehensions, Bella warmed up and allowed me to breathe and enjoy my trip. Myya sent regular messages and photos (which I appreciated)!”


“We really appreciate Matt and Michelle taking such good care of Lucky for us during our wedding and honeymoon trip. They provided frequent updates and photos, we could tell Lucky became a part of their family and felt comfortable. Would absolutely book again!”


“Brian was a phenomenal sitter for our pup Cheesecake who has reactivity challenges. We feel so lucky to have found him and highly recommend him! It was our first long trip since adopting her and we were so nervous and eager to find the best overnight dogsitting option for Cheesecake. Not only was he attentive to her challenges and needs, he made sure that she could thrive and have enrichment opportunities both indoors and outdoors. I appreciate Brian's attention to detail, sending updates with photos and videos, and flexibility to do 2 meet and greet before drop off. I truly cannot say enough good things about Brian and his professionalism in caring for our furry friends.”


“It was a pleasure having tanqueray look after my baby Mya . She kept me updated with Mya and took such great care of Mya . Mya has never been away from home before so I was a bit iffy at first but tanqueray made me feel so much more calm and relaxed. Definitely will be booking with her next week”


“Excellent hosts! The communication was top notch. I received daily updates with a photo of my dog. I was completely comfortable leaving my dog in their charge. My dog had a positive experience with Amanda and Anton. I definitely would book again with this pet loving family!”


“Penny had an excellent time with Rob and I will definitely book him again!! He sent me updates and pictures the whole time I was gone, which I appreciated. I wasn’t worried at all because she was left in amazing hands and I had the chance to meet with Rob before sending her over. 10/10 experience.”



“She was great with Aulani. We had a long vacation planned and to leave our fur baby with someone for that long of trip we needed the right person and Connie was great. She really worked with us to get this all set up. Aulani is a nervous dog and after a bit she warmed up to Connie and really was relaxed enough around her to be a dog that Connie enjoyed having. Highly recommend Connie and will add her to the list of sitters for our puppy”


“Dez is our go to dog sitter on Rover! He takes great care of our anxious pup and has worked with us to make her as calm and comfortable as possible during her stay. This was the longest we've ever left our dog and it was such a comfort to know she was in great hands. He also administered some meds for her and gave me updates on her condition along the way. Dez is the best!”


“Ángela was exceptional with Toby! She was flexible with drop off/pick up arrangements and kept us updated with pictures. Toby enjoyed time outdoors as well as pets and cuddles during his stay. We will definitely be reaching back out to Angela for future stays!!!”



“Highly recommended! This was the perfect fit for my pup! Baby is a senior dog with back leg issues, and Janelle went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and felt right at home. The care and attention she provided made all the difference. I didn’t just find a sitter—I found new friends!”


“Lynda was excellent! I had previous used doggy daycares/kennels when out of town, and my dog would come back seeming semi-traumatized. It was very different under Lynda's care! My dog can be a bit picky in some areas, and Lynda very much cared for her needs despite that. She also sent me updates on how she was doing. Will definitely be leaving my dog with Lynda when the next need arises!”


“We are so grateful for Corey and Robert. They were able to help us out in a pinch and went absolutely above and beyond. The fact that we started with a meet and greet was exceptional nd did so much to ensure that we were comfortable with leaving our boy in their care. Highly recommend these wonderful caregivers!”


“Ashley was nothing short of incredible with our pup. She took such good care of Molly, making her feel like a part of her family during her stay. She went above and beyond with communication, sending us many daily updates and videos. She even gave our daughters a gift from our pup for when we got back. In one week, Ashley has become our go-to dog sitter and we are so thankful for her!”


“Traci did such an amazing job dog sitting my puppy. She sent me picture updates throughout the week. Additionally I love that she has a sweet dog named Charlie who enjoyed playing with her as well. Zuri came back with better potty training habits as well. I highly recommend.”


“Maya was a perfect choice to take care of our fur boy, Benny! She was so kind and provided many great pictures & updates throughout his stay! Benny loved having a large, fenced yard to play in & lots of attention and TLC!”

“This was Daisy’s first stay with Joe but it won’t be her last! Joe clearly loves dogs and that gave us peace of mind on our vacation. We loved the photos and videos he shared with us. It was great to see Daisy enjoying herself with him. I have no hesitation in recommending Joe.”
