“Nicole was amazing! She communicated very well, sent texts with updates, she sent pictures and she answered every call and text. I was nervous for my first boarder experience but she made it SO easy and comfortable! Her energy and aura will make you feel at ease! I will definitely be using her again💯”
“Nina was amazing!!! We had flight delays, and last minute she was able to keep Winston another night for us. Super grateful for her, and her clear love for puppies!”
“Christine is the best! She’s watched my dog several times now, and I always feel at ease knowing she’s in great hands. The backyard is a huge bonus and gives her plenty of space to run and play, which she loves. Christine is great about sending updates and photos, which I always really appreciate. It’s clear my dog feels right at home there, and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
“Cynthia was the perfect choice in a sitter for my dog, Gracie! Her schedule was flexible and the updates with pictures and videos were perfect! She was so sweet as was her pup! I definitely recommend!”
“Lola had a great stay with lots of activity and cuddling. This duo are clearly dog lovers! Appreciated the frequent updates and photos. Easy arrangements and communications for drop off and pick up.”
“Briana is a terrific pupsitter! Great communicator who clearly loves animals and went above and beyond, sending us lots of updates so we knew Ziggy was doing well. He had so much fun during his stay and can’t wait to go back!”
“I needed 5 hours of dog care for my newly rescued senior Pomeranian and I’m so grateful to have found Donna. Donna provided a calm and caring environment for my dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, and they took a 20 minute walk together. Thank you so much, Donna!”
“Gabriela and her husband are very loving and caring sitters. I was able to leave our fur baby with them for a week while we were out of the country, and her frequent updates (with lots of pictures!) made us feel so at ease and know that our little guy was being taken care of and getting extra love and cuddles. Gabriela is always very responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times. We will definitely be using her again and highly, highly recommend her!”
“Anne Marie was so great with Chespi! She was available to do a meet n greet before our time although she was extremely busy. My dog doesn't always cuddle with a sitter on the first night, which assumedly means she's trustworthy and caring. I'll definitely rebook again.”
“Sky was fantastic and incredibly communicative, sending regular pictures and videos of Larry. I can tell he had a fantastic weekend with her and her two pups. We will most definitely be back in the future!”
“Johanna was awesome! She was super communicative and easy going. I know Louis loved staying with her and Panda, and I would absolutely have her watch him again.”
“Our normal rover had to cancel last minute for a family emergency and Morgan was able to meet me and Kody and watch him on short notice!! Morgan did an amazing job watching our dog Kody. He can be nervous around new people and new environments. Morgan (and Winnie) were so patient with him!! Morgan sent me so many updates which was much appreciated. We will definitely ask Morgan to watch Kody again!”
“Roshni was incredibly accommodating and very responsive to all our requests. She took time out of her day to meet us and learn about our dog. In addition she provided updates throughout the day along with pictures, giving us great comfort that our dog was well taken care of”
“Our pup Leo had an amazing time with Leonard, Kathryn, and their daughters. We were absolutely thrilled with the love and attention the whole family gave him. We requested updates, and for the 9 days we were gone, Leonard sent us photos of Leo having an amazing time every morning and evening. Leo got tons of exercise, cuddles, and even two baths during his stay! We highly recommend Leonard and Kathryn to anyone looking for a loving, active, and attentive home for their pet to stay with.”
“Bridges watched my dog for a week and did a wonderful job. She met me and my dog beforehand which helped make me feel more at ease, and she provided frequent updates on how he was doing during the stay. She took him on a lot of walks, and he had a wonderful time with her. I would happily have my dog stay with Bridgid again!”
“Sophie was so relaxed and happy when I picked her up from a weekend with Nathan! Nathan was able to accommodate a somewhat last minute booking for a holiday weekend, was communicative, and took very good care of my girl.”
“When a different sitter cancelled on me two days before a three week trip, I was really nervous about dog care. Erika totally saved my trip by watching Otto - she was very responsive to my request and was willing to do a video call ahead of booking to make sure it was a good fit. She took great care of my dog and sent regular photos and updates. He’s happy and healthy and I would absolutely use Erika again.”
