I have had the pleasure of knowing Carol for 20 years now, and one of the many things that makes her a special person is her equal love for people and animals. I’ve seen firsthand how she cares for her own pets, and mine as well. I would recommend Carol for any pet care needs. She is also a joy to be around, and I’ve seen how she is a hard worker. She is dedicated.

Stephanie and her family took the best care of our pup, Po’Boy. She sent so many great pictures and he came back to us tired and happy. I definitely recommend her!

If you are looking for someone to care for your pet I highly recommend Alicia. Alicia not only adores all animals she has the ability to bond with them and is a very responsible & respectful woman. My dog did not take warmly to all people and right away he trusted and loved her. Alicia has had many years experience caring for her own pets- even when they had medical conditions. Alicia will provide constant attention and be sure your pet is well taken care of. Your pets will love her and look forward to seeing her.

Kathleen is an amazing dog sitter! I wish she lived in California!! I would 1000% book her again. She is so sweet and clearly experienced with all kinds of dogs. We were visiting family in Boston and ended up booking her last minute after our original sitter canceled on us the day after we arrived. Peanut LOVED Kathleen. I’ve never seen her feel so immediately comfortable and at home with a sitter. Kathleen was very communicative and made me feel so much less anxious about leaving Peanut with someone new. She sent videos of Peanut discovering all of the toys she has for dog guests. She takes dogs for walks immediately after they are dropped off to help distract them from the anxiety of being left by their owners. I was really impressed by her experience and professionalism. She was also very communicative after we picked her up as we left Peanut’s anti-anxiety stuffed dog at her home. She mailed it to us and was prompt about communication. Peanut loved her! If she lived in California she would be my go to sitter. I can’t recommend Kathleen highly enough!! Hopefully someday we’ll have an excuse to go back to Rockport so Peanut can meet her again!

Billy, Lori and their family were so welcoming with our five month old puppy. They were able to take the reservation with less than 24 hours notice. Their house is situated right on a lake which is the perfect setting for a puppy who loves to run! Lori sent us photos throughout our weekend away. When our plans ran really late and we needed to spend an extra night away, they were able to take a super last minute reservation. They brought Willougby in the lake, on a boat, for long walks...needless to say she will sleep for a week straight! I highly recommend Lori and Billy...they were the PERFECT find and are such a wonderful family.

Crystal was a great sitter! She was very flexible and put both us and our Bluebell at ease during every phase on the process and stays (2 nights). She went out of her way to accommodate us and it worked out great. Thank you Crystal and thank you Rover!

I can't recommend Mercedes highly enough! We had a meet and greet on the beach awhile back, and both she and her 2 big dogs were so chill and relaxed I instantly felt at ease knowing my old man would be happy and safe at their home. He just had a short one night stay this time, but I am 100% comfortable with Fred in her care - and I know he's looking forward to it as well (although he's been sleeping since I picked him up). 5 stars, all day!

Myleigh is amazing. I’ve had her watch my puppy twice now. My puppy really loves being there with her. She gets super excited to see her when I’m dropping her off. Myleigh is very accommodating and always gives me updates on how my pup is doing. Definitely will be booking her again.

Steve has boarded our adult female Samoyed a few times. Our girl adjusts very quickly and easily, thoroughly enjoys the time with Steve, his family and their dogs. She gets plenty of attention and outside time and exercise. We’d use Steve again without question.

Nikki and Des were so great with my puppies! They were very attentive, sent updates when I asked, sent pictures, and messaged me when they had questions. The pups seemed like they didn’t even miss us! Though my dog is anxious, they were able to accommodate to his needs and made sure he had a great weekend getaway like all of the other puppies.

Tara is quick and responsive to her booking requests. She took excellent care of my boys, and I am so incredibly thankful. For context I have a senior chihuahua with special needs and a younger goldendoodle. She took such great care of my senior dog and was excellent taking care of my doodle (he is quite the handful to say the least). She is highly knowledgeable and incredibly caring. I highly recommend her. Thank you again Tara!

Patrick was great with my senior dachshund! She was super happy and seemed to love him. He was very accommodating and took her everywhere with him so she wouldn’t have to be alone. He sent pictures and updated me the whole time. I’ll definitely be using him again when I go out of town!

Bob and Hyesun, along with their daughters, provided a wonderful "vacation home" for our yellow lab while we were away for the week. We knew right after our first meeting that all would be well. Sadie Rose enjoyed many walks, the beach, and lots of attention from the family. Bob sent us several pictures of Sadie also. We would highly recommend this lovely family for anyone who needs a dog sitter. Hopefully, Sadie Rose will have an opportunity to make a return visit one day soon!

I highly recommend Mary. She watched our dog for 6 days and sent multiple updates/pictures each day and was accommodating when our vacation ended a day early. Also her yard is gorgeous; I’m sure my dog enjoyed being outside there.

Kristin was amazing with our dog Hickory. She is an older rescue dog with some anxiety in new situations with new people and they were so attentive to her needs and made her feel right at home. I'm pretty sure Hickory would have preferred to stay with them than come home. She had so much fun walking and playing. Their house is very comfortable and has a backyard. They live near a rail trail and the beach, both great for doggie exercising and good sniffing! Kristin made sure to send us updates with photos and videos and confirming that Hickory had her medication in the evenings. We were so appreciative of that! Thank you Kristin!
