She took the time to get to know our furry friends and their unique personalities, providing personalized care that put us at ease.

13. Yazmin D.

“We have never done boarding before just because we don’t trust people really with our fur baby but this time we had no other choice. I saw Yazmin’s profile and really liked that she works with dogs everyday & the effort she puts into them. She was the only one willing to a meet up before hand which I really appreciated! She made us feel very comfortable leaving our baby with her. I could tell she is a good person & she updated us throughout the night we used her! Definitely recommend Yazmin!!”


14. Tridessa F.

“Tridessa was great to work with and did a fantastic job watching my pups. They adjusted well to their new home away from home and I received updates and pictures throughout their visit. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


15. Keila G.
“I've known Keila for a few years now and she's amazing! A kind and gentle soul with a lot of spunk, she's always got a great attitude and outlook on life no matter the situation! She's very attentive to her own pets as well as mine whenever she has come over to help me out. I have a super senior pup that's 20 years old who loves to lean on your for pets and a sprightly 9 year old pittie who's always got a toy he wants you to take from him. She adjusts well to handling both temperaments and loves to give them attention when they are seeking it. She's shared with me a couple of allergy situations with her own pups and how she nursed them back to health with the utmost care! She's always looking to improve her dog's way of life and I think that's the best quality in any pet caregiver :)”


16. Marilena C.

“WOW!!! I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Marilena as a dog sitter. My olderly dog normally does not do well at other peoples houses when we leave for vacation, barely eats and normally comes home with a lot of food. This was NOT the case. Marilena and her family made Saddie feel very welcome and apart of the family. Saddie came home with barely any food left which is unheard of. Marilena was on top of sending photos and making us feel like our dog was in great hands. Saddie loved their dog Nova and of course the children. If you are looking for a great dog sitter; look no further!! As much as I would love to keep Marilena and her family to ourselves, I highly recommend trusting and leaving your furry baby with them. They are the best I have found on Rover in the Springs area. Thank you again for all the pictures and putting our minds at ease on our vacation. We look forward to booking with you on our next adventure!”


17. James C.

“Hachi was well-cared for during his stay with James! I appreciate his flexibility in drop-off and pick-up times as well as his patience with my senior dog. I will definitely contact James again if I need a sitter for Hachi!”


18. Lourdes N.

“I was very pleased. I didn't give her much notice she accepted. She kept me updated and my dog was not stressed when I picked her up. I will definitely use her again.”


19. Nikole C.

“Nikole took care of our dad’s dog Barbie for quite a while- she was absolutely WONDERFUL to Barbie. Lots of walks and love. I would definitely recommend her to EVERYONE!”


20. Angelica C.

“Angelica was awesome with Nova. She sent pics and updates everyday. Would definitely recommend. Looking forward to booking with her again. THANK YOU SO MUCH! 😊”
