1. Abigail Elizabeth L.

“We needed a dog sitter at the last moment due to a family emergency. Abigail was able to accommodate . Our little dog was happy and content. Thank you Abigail. I highly recommend.”


2. Mitzi & Klifton K.

“Mitzi and Klifton are the absolute best! Super caring and responsible, professional, wonderful to communicate with... I cannot think of a better place to entrust our dog to. Thank you so much!”


3. Diane & Chris R.

“Excellent experience! Diane and Chris took good care of our dog Mei Mei. They sent us update everyday. Mei Mei had a lot of fun staying with them and their dog. She can’t wait to go back again!”




4. Elle S.


“Elle has truly been a game changer for our shy goldendoodle. Our pup, who’s usually hesitant around new people, now gets excited when it’s time to spend the weekend with her. Elle’s professionalism and responsiveness make us feel completely at ease, knowing our dog is in capable hands. She not only managed our pup’s medications flawlessly but also created such a bond that we wouldn’t trust anyone else. If you’re looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, I can’t recommend Elle enough!”


5. Srividhya & Matthew S.

“Can’t say enough good things about these two! They took care of Ollie like he was their own, were flexible on timing and sent lots of good photo updates. I don’t think he wanted to come back home with me at the end.”


6. Melinda W.

“Such an amazing experience from an anxious dog parent! Made me feel so safe and secure where I was leaving my baby. Cannot recommend her enough”


7. Sonia & Jonathan R.

“Really felt comfortable leaving my pup with Jon and Sonia! I appreciated their due diligence before my pup’s stay and consistent communication during it. Will definitely book again!”


8. Anna G.

“Anna was so wonderful with our relatively last-minute request! She gave us frequent and thoughtful updates on our dog’s stay with her and our pup loved her immediately! We will definitely book again :)”


9. Blu B.

“I can’t express how lucky we are to have found Blu to watch our dog Harvey. It’s difficult to know where to begin, but basically Harvey occasionally self-harms (bites his tail) from separation anxiety, and he did so after we left him this last trip. Blu took amazing care of him while he was bleeding from his tail, made sure he was comfortable, and sent us updates multiple times daily. She was a catalyst for us getting him more care that he needs to cure his issues, and I am so grateful for her. She will take exceptional care of your family while you’re away.”


10. Angie Y.

“My dogs love going to Angie’s house. They like playing with her pup and she takes them on walks too! They always come home happy and tired. Highly recommend!”


11. Eric & Kim S.


“Eric & Lily were great hosts. I have a senior dog so I have lots of questions and more than normal requests (special diet, food preparation, medicines, etc...) Eric initiated the conversation via Zoom to make sure we were a good fit. I really appreciated that. He accommodated my dog and adapted his house to her behavior and needs. Good photos and videos too. I would book with him again!”


12. Julia & Connor T.

“Julia and Connor are the sweetest! I felt super confident leaving our baby puppy with them! They sent us the cutest pics of Maple enjoying her stay!”




13. David & Dawn M.



“Excellent hosts!! They are very quick to reply to messages and inquiries, provided a ton of great pictures and updates while we were away. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much for keeping Milo, I could certainly tell he enjoyed his stay!”


14. Mollie T.

“Mollie was awesome! She is very calm and caring- and knows dog behaviors well. She sent us multiple photos and updates each day. Our pup had some separation anxiety and she handled it very professionally and kept us in the loop. Berkeley loved chasing her puppy around their yard and came home happy and tired.”


15. Vivian B.

“Vivian took great care of my dog Chandler! I received pictures and updates every day during the week. I would be happy to have Vivian watch my dog again.”




16. Kiersten R.


“Kiersten was great with my Border Collie, Ike. We did doggie day care with Kiersten and Ike had a great time there. I highly recommend Kiersten as an excellent and attentive sitter.”


17. Leiliany B.

“Leila did a wonderful job of watching our dog, Cocoa! I really appreciated that she was able to watch her last minute so we could take a long weekend family trip. I look forward to having her watch our dog again in the future!”


18. Jennifer S.

“Jennifer is a wonderful pet sitter. She took care of my dog very well. My dog loves her house where she has a lot of fun with other friends. I highly recommend Jennifer to anybody who is looking for boarding or day care!”


19. Kenneth b.

“It was very smooth to work with Kenneth. He was available to help us when his calendar said he would be (very rare on Rover!), he quickly scheduled a meet and greet and then was very flexible with pick ups and drop offs. His communication was quick, he clearly knows dogs and he sent us pics most days. Coco was happy when we picked her up! We would recommend him for sure.”




20. Rohin D.

“Rohin was great! Marlo and Callie both received excellent care- Callie was recovering from getting stitches during her stay and Rohin took extra care to give her a safe and secluded area. Marlo loved playing with the other dogs!! Thanks for the pictures and great care.”
