“Maya and Dante had a great time with Michelle and her family. They were very well taken care of and spent their days exploring the neighborhood. We would absolutely leave our fur-babies with them again on our next trip!”
“Rob again is an outstanding sitter. He goes above and beyond. Plays with Nova daily and gives her so much love and care. I’m in a situation where is travel and he has taken on keeping her as I find her a new forever home.”
“Jovie always comes back happy! Kimberly accommodated a last minute adjustment to our booking and also administered ear medication for us. Grateful to have her!”
“I can't express how happy I was with the care Piper received from Angelica during her stay. Thank you, and we will definitely use her service again. Piper was treated like one of her fur babies. Thanks again.”
“Maria and her family were wonderful. They sent me constant updates and pictures of my dog playing with theirs. He came back happy, healthy, and energetic. If I need a sitter again, they will be at the top of the list of people I call.”
“Tanqueray was phenomenal with my sweet but anxious older little guy. She took his unique needs into consideration as she thoughtfully planned his stay. He was comfortable and happy, which I knew because he doesn’t usually go up to sitters to say bye when I pick him up. But he did this with her. He made new doggy friends on his walks (which he’s also not always up to) and he and Sir, a sweet little guy, got along wonderfully. I’m grateful for Tanqueray and the loving care she took of my pup.”
“Julia is the best! Our dog Brandy is always so excited to get to her house!! She loves playing with her dog Bambina and we love knowing she’s in great hands!”
“Boarding my dog, Emma, for a week was easy and stress-free with Andrea! She sends lots of photos and videos throughout the stay, so I felt confident that Emma was having a good time and settling in well. Andrea and her husband were very attentive to Emma’s needs, and she came home looking very healthy and happy. We will definitely book her again!”
“They were easy to communicate with and Bowie seemed to be having fun! They sent me pictures daily and were responsive. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them and would use them again.”
“Brian took great care of my dog and asked thoughtful questions to ensure my dog’s first stay with him would go well. He provided a picture daily and my dog was happy when I picked her up.”
“I was really nervous leaving my dog with a sitter however after meeting Vicky I was ok leaving my dog with her. Vicky has a calming soul, which you will notice if you ever meet her. I knew my dog was in good hands. Pictures and videos were sent to me regularly which was much appreciated.”
“Peter was very communicative throughout Manjus visit. Manju came back a happy but tired puppy. Peter was also flexible when I needed an extra day for Manju to stay, which was really nice. It was also nice to see Manju interacting with another dog.”
“This whole experience has been just amazing. From the constant reassurance of videos and texts to the undeniable love for dogs is what made us so happy with the care we received for Milo. We were a little wary leaving our little guy for a couple of days, but we’re very surprised to learn he was having a better time there than he was at home. He made a lot of little friends and received so much love. Will definitely be booking again in the future!!!!!”
“Ruben was amazing! He went above and beyond to make sure Kodak enjoyed his time there and was taken care of. Great communication, he responds quickly & I received pictures & updates throughout the day & evening. Kodak got a long well with his dogs and enjoyed playing with them! When I picked him up Ruben gave me a thank-you bag with a handwritten note (it was so sweet) & a squeaker toy for Kodak. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Ian was absolutely fantastic with Satchmo. He was very communicative throughout the stay, sent plenty of pictures, and made sure Satch was well taken care of the entire time. This was our first Rover experience after moving to Chicago, and Ian made it a great one. Based on the updates and how happy Satch looked, I would recommend him to anyone. We will definitely be booking with him again.”
“Eniya is very nice. She clearly likes dogs and enjoyed having our fury baby. He came back happy. She was very fast to respond to communications. She was VERY flexible with pick up and drop off, which was greatly appreciated. I would have appreciated more check ins from her, with pics, to tell us how he’s doing.”

We are so grateful for the wonderful care Sasha received while we were away for the weekend. Jasmin and her husband were incredibly sweet, kind, and loving, and from the moment we met them, we knew Sasha was in great hands. Knowing our girl was being cared for and loved on like one of their own gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to a happy pup, and that means everything to us. We truly appreciate the kindness they showed Sasha and would gladly trust them with her again. Highly recommend!
Carla and her roommate took such great care of my girl. I had to find care last minute before a trip, and Carla was available and accommodating. She sent regular updates and great pics. Both my dog and I were really happy with Carla and definitely plan to use her again!
Tim did a fantastic job watching my dog, Simba. He was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me great peace of mind. Simba was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with him. I highly recommend Tim to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Simba!
We had a great experience with Stacy! We started with a meet and greet, and she was wonderful with our 10-year-old dog, Reggie. She was super friendly, communicated clearly throughout, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely loves dogs. Reggie especially enjoyed all the time she spent with him outside, which is one of his favorite things. We felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care and would happily recommend Stacy to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
She has been such an amazing dog sitter for my pup! She is incredibly sweet, clearly loves and cares for the dogs she watches, and always makes me feel at ease leaving my dog with her. She’s very easy to coordinate with for both drop-off and pick-up, which makes everything seamless and stress-free. I also really appreciate the daily updates and photos — it’s so nice knowing my pup is happy, loved, and well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend!
Lauriann and Sven were amazing. From the second we showed up to drop the fur babies off knew we had found some special people. One of our dogs is usually a little slow to warm up to new people but he seemed to be happy and content from the get go. And Sven said they got along splendidly. Lauriann sent update pics throughout the weekend and we could tell the pups were having a great time. We greatly appreciate how kind, attentive, and welcome both Lauriann and Sven are.
I have been leaving my dogs at Robs place for over a year now. My dogs are always excited when they get there and are always having a good time playing with the other pups there. Rob always sends videos of him walking our dogs and of them playing with others which is always great to see. I will continue using Rob for future stays!
Pam was wonderful from the initial meet and greet until we picked our dog up from her home. She was responsive, communicative, and sent us regular pictures of our dog throughout her stay. Harper loved staying with her and her sweet doggie Xena and we will definitely be booking with her again!
