“Tucker had a great time with Kristal. He was well cared for and loved while he was there. She calmed his separation anxiety and he seemed to fit right in.”




7. Patricia S.

“Pat as always did a wonderful job taking care of my two older and not very healthy dogs. She had to administer medication to my 14 year old due to Cushings disease and the beginnings of dementia as well as painful arthritis This dog is also deaf and vision impaired. Roxie is used to sleeping with me and Pat accommodated her by sleeping on the sofa with her due to her anxiety and fearfulness. Pat is so very responsible. She provides plenty of exercise for my pups and sends me daily pictures and updates keeping me well informed during my time away. Thank you Pat for all that you do”

“Andi can usually come up pretty anxious after she's been boarded or in someone else's home for a while. She was so relaxed, I'm not sure she wanted to leave! Elison, Lisa, and their family were so great.”

“Flexible and professional. Evelin made the experience of keeping our dogs less stressful. We hope to use her services again. Thank you Evelin!”

“Was very sweet to my senior dog and took great care of him while out of town. Took extra care to put his eye drops in each day. Thanks so much!”


18. Staci S.

“Staci pet-sat for my fur-baby Maggie for 2 days and I am thinking she is missing her and her family. When my husband and I picked her up, Maggie gave me a little resistance on the leash, but eventually walked towards our car. I have always been hesitant about leaving Maggie with anyone outside of our family because she has separation anxiety and can be sad when we left her in the past with other pet sitting services. I am so grateful that Staci took such good care of Maggie and gave us updates that gave me a piece of mind while away. Thank you for keeping her and obviously loving on her so much. 💜 I can’t wait for the next time she gets to go to you. -D. Recinos”


19. David & Stephanie B.

“Could have asked for more! They did a fantastic job with a rather difficult breed (husky). They truly take pride in making sure your dog is taken care of in every way possible. High recommend and will be using them again!!”


20. Tammy T.

“Tammy is a wonderful person. She was very accommodating in terms of pick up and delivery. I am so grateful for the PUpdates she sent via Whatsapp that showed me Jordan felt right at home. I would absolutely recommend Tammy to anyone who needs a petsitter. I hope to see her again, even if Jordan doesn't need a sitter. I had a less than great experience with Rover's policies. I booked Tammy over a month in advance and intended to pay much closer to the trip. That was agreed on with Tammy. I was dismayed by persistent demands to pay the full amount before I had it available. In fact, Rover canceled my reservation and Tammy had to reorder it. If client and sitter agree to a payment arrangement that is paid before the date of service, Rover needs to back off constant payment demands. I found it confusing and annoying. However, I cannot speak highly enough about Tammy's friendliness and professionalism.”
