My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!

Laura was fantastic! Our German Shepherd received exceptional care from her. We appreciated the frequent updates that reassured us our pet was doing wonderfully. It's clear Laura genuinely cares. After 8 years of using Rover and trying many sitters, Laura stands out as the best. Thanks again, Laura, for taking great care of our girl!

I genuinely cannot recommend McKinley enough! She is the sweetest, kindest, and most thoughtful sitter I could have ever asked for. From the moment I dropped Hamilton off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such amazing hands. She sent me daily photos and checked in throughout the day with updates on everything he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ve honestly never seen Hamilton happier. He looked so comfortable, loved, and genuinely excited to be there, I think he was actually a little sad to leave, lol. It was so obvious that McKinley treated him like he was her own, and that meant the world to me. If you’re looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, keep you updated, and go above and beyond, McKinley is the person to book. I would trust her with Hamilton again in a heartbeat and will absolutely be using her in the future. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for the best possible care for their pet!

Harley was so happy to go back to Jennifer and her wonderful family for a long weekend. He gets showered with love by Jennifer, her sweet daughter Ramsey, and Grandmom Anne! I’m so happy he gets a happy easy-going doggy friend in Khali, and experience with Pursey the cat. It’s so nice knowing that he is so beautifully cared for. Jennifer was extra kind this time, giving him medicine and more walks since he couldn’t run around her spacious front yard due to a healing injury. We love getting updates and adorable pictures throughout his time there. I’m not sure Harley really wanted to leave!

Julia was an absolute angel and lifesaver when our dog sitter through a different service cancelled a couple of hours before our vacation was set to begin. She took wonderful care of Rocky and it was obvious that he felt right at home. He loved playing with her dog, Pepper, and we got photo updates all of the time. It was such a relief to know he was happy and well taken care of. Rocky came back to us happy and playful. Thank you, Julia!

Sophia went above and beyond while caring for our dog. During our time away, he unexpectedly needed emergency surgery, and she took him to the vet right away and stayed on top of everything throughout the entire process. She made sure he was well cared for after the surgery, gave him all of his medications, and kept us updated. Her compassion, responsibility, and genuine love for animals gave us so much peace of mind during an incredibly stressful situation. We truly can't thank Sophia enough for everything she did for our dog. We would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.

Michel was absolutely outstanding. She took exceptional care of Althea and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent from start to finish, with regular updates, photos, and quick responses whenever we reached out. It was clear that Althea was receiving plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care. Everything was handled professionally and exactly as promised. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says more than anything else could. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Michel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring sitter. Thank you for treating Althea like one of your own.

Our dog had a great time staying with Lucas! He was very kind and professional. He took very good care of our dog and took her out on adventures while being mindful of the high heat index, which we really appreciated. Our dog gets scared around fireworks, so we were nervous about leaving her for the 4th of July, but he did a great job accommodating her anxious quirks and making her feel right at home. Would definitely recommend and will be using again!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our sweet Merlin. She was incredibly loving from the very first day — you could just tell how much she genuinely cared for him. She went above and beyond by planning tons of fun activities, keeping him happy, active, and engaged the whole time we were away. The regular photo updates she sent were such a thoughtful touch — it was so reassuring to see him having the best time, whether he was out exploring or just relaxing. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands and never once worried about him while traveling. She’s an absolute gem and we will absolutely be booking her again for future trips. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Merlin!
