“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”

“Kayce kept my 2 dogs for about 5 days! They have a great fenced in yard and dog kennels which is nice. As I did not need to bring a kennel for my smaller dog. It was a cold, muddy weekend and my pups came back clean, tired and happy. Her dog Bebop is such a cutie!”

“Adam was an EXCELLECT sitter! You can tell he has the patience and passion to engage positively with your dog!!! Great customer service and communication! Would rebook again!”

“Elaine and Steven are very kind! Winnie enjoyed her time with them. Elaine sent us pictures and a video. It was so nice to know she was so well taken care of.”

“Kendra is amazing as always. I always feel comfortable and at ease when my dog is in her care. She provides quality care and consistent updates. I highly recommend her services.”

“These lovely sitters have a special place in our hearts. They truly seem to be a second family to our precious Mae. Highly recommend above all if the other boarders we’ve used through Rover and other means of securing a pet sitter.”

“Marshmallow had an amazing time! He didn’t want to leave when we came to get him. He was very tired when we got home and was the quietness he’s been, which is saying something for a 4 month old puppy!! Will definitely be coming back soon.”

“Abby was great with my dogs. She kept me informed throughout the entire trip and was vigilant in keeping my dog with addisons disease healthy. She went above and beyond to ensure they had a good stay.”

“Gulmira was so great with our shy girl Sophie! She sent plenty of updates and was very communicative, helping us feel very comfortable leaving Sophie there for the first time! It’s clear Sophie was loved so much while she was there too and she was also exercised very well, got plenty of walks and time to explore, and made some doggy friends along the way. We are so pleased with the stay and could not recommend Gulmira more! She’s definitely a great choice if you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and is kind and patient with animals.”


“Highly recommend. Damacia took care of Teddy very well.. Teddy attached to her as a family member. She updated every day with his picture. Thanks Damacia 🥰”

“They took great care of Merle and sent lots of updates with photos! He had a wonderful time at their house and came home tired after lots of play. I recommend this sitter!”

“Felt the warmth of Dylan as soon as I walked and I knew my girls would be in good hands. He did wonderful taking care of my rebellious girls and that is what I needed. I absolutely recommend his services.”

“Very friendly and accommodating. My fur baby who is usually a little scary appeared to be very comfortable upon arrival. And the photos that were sent she looked happy. I definitely will rebook again. Maybe try a day visit since my girl enjoyed playing with Miranda's pup so much🫶🏾”

“Marvin was an amazing sitter for Kuna! He kept me consistently updated with messages and photos, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Kuna was well cared for and happy, and it was clear he was comfortable the entire time. I truly appreciated the communication and attention Marvin provided. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Julie was great! She was able to board our dog last minute and had a bunch of items on hand so we didn't have to bring a ton. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. She also gave some good advice afterwards to help with boarding next time”

“We had such a great experience with this couple watching Kuna! From the start, they made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. They sent lots of pictures and updates, which really helped reassure us that Kuna was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was clear he was loved and treated like part of their family. We truly appreciated the communication and attention they gave him. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy sitters!”

“Andrea was great! Our dog seemed to feel right at home! Andrea sent pictures and kept us updated. She was so communicative, patient and kind! This was our first time using this service app and she made the experience fantastic!”
