“An AMAZING sitter. He is quickly becoming family. My dog LEAPS out of the car as soon as he sees him. I feel great going away knowing that my baby is being well taken care of. He is responsive and communicates often.”


“Our dog Boomer had a wonderful stay with Krissy and her dogs. Krissy is responsive with text messages and we get constant updates and pictures throughout our trip. I look forward to them everyday. He came home happy and himself. We would 100% book with Krissy again next time. Thank you for looking after our boy and treating him like one of your own. He was so spoiled and had his own mini vacation with a nice backyard which we don’t get in the city.”


“What a great experience!! We had a 10 day vacation and wanted personal care for our young labrador, Luna. Mariela was enthusiastic, knowledgable and clearly loves dogs. Her warmth when meeting Luna for the first time immediately put me at ease and I knew we made the right decision. Mariela shared pictures, videos and updates on Luna with us throughout our vacation and we could see Luna was having a great time. We were impressed by Mariela's professionalism throughout the entire process. She requested detailed information about Luna and it was evident that she took the time to really understand Luna's individual requirements, which made us feel confident in her ability to provide proper care. Most importantly, the quality of care provided by Mariela was outstanding. Luna seemed genuinely happy and well-cared-for when I returned. It was evident that Mariela had spent quality time with her, engaging in playtime and providing the attention and affection that Luna needed. The fact that Luna was relaxed and content upon our return speaks volumes about the excellent care she received. I wholeheartedly recommend Mariela's dog boarding service. Her passion for animals, consistent communication, reliability, professionalism, and high-quality care make her an exceptional choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter. I will not hesitate to hire Mariela again in the future, knowing that our beloved Luna will be in the best hands possible!”


“Glaelle did a wonderful job with Fitz. She sent pic and videos, which I loved. And most of all Fitz was happy during his stay and when I picked him up. It’s like I left him with family. Thank you so much Glaelle😃”


“Anthony!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.. so much taking care of my baby! I was so worried prior to my trip as I was not able to find a sitter and then I saw your profile on the last day before my flight and I am so happy I did. You and your family did an amazing job in taking care of Marley. And I am happy he found a new friend…Bentley! You sent me videos and pics daily and that gave me peace of mind that Marley was safe and having an amazing time. I will be booking again. Again, thank you! !”


“Gracie is truly amazing! She kept my mind at ease with her continuous updates/pictures of my dogs. She is very attentive and my dogs love her. I would recommend her to anyone.”


“Pamela was an exceptional dog sitter for my dog. Her care is beyond explanation! I think my dog is gonna miss her more than he missed me 😄 While I was on vacation she sent me a lot of photos and videos about my dog that made me feel he’s with me. I absolutely recommend her and her care to anyone who loves to leave their dog in good hands!”


“Could not have had a better experience with Kat at our wedding! She brought Rosie for our photos and it was absolutely perfect! She was patient and attentive. Rosie struggles with anxiety and was super comfortable with her and even gave kisses! After the wedding she brought her to the park for a long walk! It was so nice having her be apart of our special day and put us at ease knowing she was taken care of! Highly highly reccomend Kat and have already told our family and friends about her!!”

“Luna absolutely does not hesitate to run into Michelle’s home and thats the sign for me that Michelle and her family treat Luna to a good, safe time everytime she’s with them!”


“Gloria was great..she took such amazing care if my pet while I was away on vacation. I got pictures of Elsa everyday with daily update! Gloria has different activities scheduled for her pets and its just great to leave my pet knowing I have nothing to worry about. Will definitely book with Gloria in Future ?”


“Anna went above and beyond the call of duty for myself and my dog. The retractable leash I provided broke on one of her walks and without hesitation she went out to get another leash for future walks. My flight coming back was delayed and she stayed up late for me to arrive to pick up. She checked in everyday with updates and photos on how things were going. Anna was super tentative and detail oriented with my pets routine and needs. She made the experience for myself and my pet very comforting and assuring throughout the duration of the stay. If you're looking for a genuinely good hearted and trustworthy sitter then Anna is for you. I would recommend her to anybody.”

She took outstanding care of my dog, Pittsburgh, ensuring his daily happiness and even sending me reassuring photos of him during his stay. I will definitely choose her again without hesitation!”


“Peggy was an absolute godsend! Had a last minute cancellation and she agreed to the service with little notice. Went above and beyond for my sweet loons! Gave her tons of exercise that she needs and all the love possible! She sent a bunch of pictures and videos giving me updates on her, and my dog came home happy, calm and having had an amazing time! It was like a vacation for us and for our dog! Cannot thank her enough truly a blessing :)”

“We have never used the Rover app before and were a bit nervous about leaving our 2 year old dog Lucy with someone we didn’t know. I picked Grace after carefully reviewing her profile and reading her reviews. Grace was absolutely wonderful. We met at her home prior to our trip to get acquainted. Grace showed me the yard and the took me inside where Lucy would be staying. She asked me very detailed questions and it was clear that she was experienced and caring. Throughout Lucy’s stay Grace sent pictures and videos which made me feel good. I would absolutely recommend Grace and use her again if we go away. Thank you Grace!”
