1. Tracey M.

“This was Bootsie's third time staying w/Tracey & her mom. They had all kinds of toys to keep him entertained during his stay & sent so many wonderful photos. Mom could truly have a second career as a professional pet photographer!! As always, thank you so much again for all that you did to take care of our furry child!!”


2. Senne M.

“I had to find a very last minute sitter for 9 nights for my pupper and Senne was so accommodating and welcoming. When I met her I felt like I didn’t have to worry. She was receptive of my instructions and sent me updates the entire week. I could tell she loved having my pup there. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you Senne!”


3. Tiffani E.

“Tiffani and her family are Lovely!! 😍 They took amazing care of my fur son 🦮 & even welcomed him into their bed! He made a new best friend with their Akira, who is sweet as can be. I will definitely be sending him to her in the future for doggy sleepovers! 🐾🐾🐾”


4. Jessica P.

“Our little anxious senior dog was so comfortable with Jessica and her family! Thank you for making her first stay away from home such a nice experience.”


5. Kaylee M.

“Kaylee was awesome to work with watching our high energy black lab puppy. Also my flight home was cancelled and had to extend my booking with her which she was super cool about. She kept her an additional day no problem. She also sent daily photos and updates”


6. Mayra S.

“Mayra is an amazing dog sitter. We had two dogs she took care of while we were out of town for two weeks. The pictures she sent each day shows how well our dogs were doing and we were very happy that they were in such a good caring environment. Especially our second dog was his first time at a sitter and he requires quite care (daily brushing, etc) and he seems so well taken care of. Definitely we would like to use her service at any time when we are out of town. Two thumbs up!”


7. Dianna L.
“I just got my pup back from his weeklong. Stay with Diana and her family. He is so happy to have spent time with her two dogs and children. I will definitely be a return customer. Your animal and Diana‘s care will receive love and cuddles and play. She’s awesome at updating you with how your baby is doing. I had total peace of mind, knowing that my dog was in such good hands.”


8. Diana H.

“Diana did an amazing job taking care of my dogs! I loved getting daily pictures. Her xommunication was fantastic, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”


9. Jessica C.

“Jessica has excellent communication and knows dogs really well. She’s quick to reply to messages and provided regular photo/video updates. She understands dogs’ behavior and how to identify cues that they’re nervous, hungry, excited, etc and adapt. My husky had a blast playing with her husky and felt confident that he was in good hands. I’d book with Jessica again. Highly recommend!”


10. Montana M.

“Montana was great to my dad’s dog Ganja! Despite some challenges, she pulled through and kept him safe for his entire stay. He returned happy and healthy!”


11. Kelly B.

“Kelly, along with her own pooch Maggie, were excellent companions for our puppy's first stay away from home. Kelly was on top of everything, because she's very professional and caring. I really appreciated the photos she sent each day showing that our dog was having a good time. Kelly was always on top of the entire process. Because we were traveling to and from the airport, together we made the drop off and pick up as smooth and quick as possible. Kelly's location, about five minutes from the airport, was perfect too.”


12. Daisy P.


“We were considering cancelling our trip since our senior Shih Tzu Penelope suddenly needed extra attention & care for her bad anxiety and doggie dementia diagnosis. Thankfully, I found Daisy at the last minute! She and JP were the perfect sitters for Penelope, and their sweet pug Kimchi was the best companion - an added bonus! They took her on extra walks, had no problem administering her meds, and sent tons of cute pics & updates. Daisy is experienced, caring, understanding, and accommodating. I felt at ease leaving Penelope with her. Penelope was well cared for and refreshed after her week staycation with Daisy! Highly recommend & I will definitely book her again.”


13. Meilyn L.

“Meilyn and her family did an amazing job taking care of our Siberian huskies. She sent us updates frequently and I love that she took them out on active walks or the dog park daily. I am very picky in who is taking care or our dogs considering one of our dogs is still in separation anxiety training and they are both high maintenance dogs. I will absolutely book with Meilyn again.”


14. Ratchanoo R.

“Barkley enjoyed his stay with Ratchanoo. Barkley felt right at home with her and her dog. She gave us updates and sent pics and vids on how our pet is doing. She treated Barkley like her own. I highly recommend her and will definitely go back to her if ever we need her services again. Thanks again Ying. 🤙”


15. Jacque L.

“I wholeheartedly trust and highly recommend Jacque and Lexi (mother and daughter) as amazing sitters!!! Jacque made sure I was at ease at all times, and even accepted last minute accommodations. (I cannot thank her enough for all that she did!) Without my asking, Jacque made sure to keep me informed by sending me video and picture updates. She was very considerate of my dog's needs and took great care to ensure his comfort. Although my dog, Luca, is wary and reserved with strangers, he seems to really enjoy and get along with Jacque, Lexi, and Miko, along with theur three fur-babies. The family treated my dog with such love and care as if he were one of their own! Luca cannot wait to stay with them again in the future! 😊 Final thing to note - all the funds that’s being raised through sitting are all going towards the daughter’s future college expenses. How awesome is that?!”


16. Nichole S.

“Nicole and her family were so so great with Hilahila she sent pictures and was incredibly helpful with excellent communication and Hilhila had the best time. It was the longest we've ever been away from him and she put us at ease. We're super grateful”


17. Duyen N.

“Duyen and her husband were very good to my hyper dog, Knight. I had to take a last minute trip for a family an emergency and they were more than willing to help me out for a week. They offered a meet and greet before hand that went very well. They asked a lot of good questions and answered all of mine. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit stressed, but I received pictures and updates everyday while I was gone which put my mind at ease. They have a nice big fenced in yard and someone was with my dog the entire time. I would definitely recommend this couple to anyone needing a dog sitter and I will definitely reach out again if never need one! Thank you both for taking care of my dog!”


18. Kalea E.

“Kalea is amazing & took great care of our boy!!! Rocky was so sweet & welcoming!! Our boy really enjoyed himself & all the adventures! Kalea, her husband & Rocky made it very easy for us to leave our boy, knowing that he is in great hands!! We will definitely be booking with Kalea again!!!”


19. Joe Y.

“Solid sitter. Joe lives in a great location, lots of patience and is very confident. Milo stayed with him for two days and came back to me super tired after his many walks. Great sitter!”


20. Lily P.

“Lily was absolutely amazing taking care of Nala and keeping me updated with plenty of pictures! She was very accommodating with our schedule changing as well. Very clean home, large yard for the pups to run and play and she truly went above and beyond to make Nala so happy! She even sent us home with a cute care package and Easter picture that is so adorable!”
