“Corinne is awesome!! My dog Sophie had a great time and adjusted to her environment very quickly. I received lots of picture updates. 10/10 would definitely let her sit Sophie again!”


“I cannot say enough great things about Jackie! My dog Skye absolutely loved her and had the best time playing with the others dogs at her house. Jackie was extremely welcoming and made Skye feel right at home. I also loved that she sent pictures and videos to let me feel at ease leaving my dog with her.”


“What an amazing family! Our 1 year old doggie spent 10 days with Ashley while we were on vacation !Piper was so well cared for….. just like ishe was their own doggie! We just picked her up and she was so happy! We highly recommend Ashley to care for your doggie!”


“Raul and Diana are a dynamic duo. They took superb care of my dog piper. So much so that I was afraid piper would never want to return home. They ensured piper was physically and mentally stimulated throughout her stay, and most importantly, they were very communicative when Piper had an adverse reaction to a treat. Raul and Diana are passionate about pets and cared for Piper with significant attention and love.”


“Danielle was awesome with our Judge. You can see that she loves the pups and truly loves her job. We know Judge had a great time at her home because he came home nice and tired! Thank you Danielle and Judge is looking forward to seeing you again in the future!”


“Matthew and his family were great hosts to our Welsh Terrier Winnie. She is an active dog with a lot of attitude. With their two dogs Henry and Jacks they were able to keep her running, walking, and content. We know our dog had a great time when she comes home spent, worn out, and sleeping for two days. Matthew sent pictures each day and Winnie had a blast. Two thumbs up and we will gladly use Matthew again..if he'll let our 17lb beast back in their home!”



“I can't say enough positive things about Paola! Our dog has separation anxiety and is always very anxious when we're not with him, but somehow Paola made him feel right at home and completely comfortable during his stay. She sent us multiple pictures every day and was very at ease knowing our dog was being very well taken care of!”


“Thomas was wonderful! He was caring and very professional. My dog has anxiety and very active. Thomas knew exactly how to handle him and cater to his needs. He even went so far as to purchase bubbles for my dog because he loves to play w them! I can’t say enough about Thomas. He rocks!!”

“Rudy loved his Rover vacation!!!! Up from GA going with family to the beach in NJ a co-worker recommended Rover. Kristin was the best ever! We visited about a 2 wks before and she let Rudy run around her house and backyard. Rudy fell in love with Kristin. All I worried about was that Rudy wouldn’t want to come home. He was happy to see us but already misses Kristin. I am hoping Kristin will be able to care for Rudy next summer. Thank you Kristin for caring for Rudy and giving my family a stress free week. Loved all the pictures you were kind enough to update us with! Rudy, Ellen and Sean”

“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”


About: I have had an array of animals throughout my life, from reptiles to Guinea Pigs and rabbits, to cats (I currently have a Russian Blue named Wesson; unfortunately, we lost his brother Cash to cancer this year) and dogs (I had a Cocker Spaniel named Carter and a Maltese named Calli). I miss them every day. I have experience in administering medications and insulin to cats and dogs (my Maltese had diabetes and required insulin and my cat had stomach issues and required liquid medication and pills), so I am no stranger to giving medications. I am a Stay At Home Mom and I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of play time and love in your absence. I know how hard it is to leave your pets in someone else’s care and I firmly believe in maintaining a routine. I want to keep your pets’ day as close to normal as possible.

“Daisy was very sweet and attentive to Hari. She provided us with photos and he looked content in all of them. She gave him his meds and he was walked every day. He looked clean and healthy when we picked him up. We will definitely be using Daisy again.”
