Esther went above and beyond the dog sitting call of duty. To begin, she really got to know Mauser before starting her weekly dog/house sitting. She took him on three meet-in-greets before starting. Esther was completely at ease with Mauser and once Mauser warned up to her a few hours alone in the house he protects, they became great buddies. Esther was professional, prompt and completely reliable with respect to taking care of Mauser and my house. I would recommend Esther to anyone wanting a professional dog/house sitter.

Great job with our little dog for two nights while we were at my brother’s wedding. Arrived on time, met us at our Airbnb to get her used to him and she had a great time. Nice guy and professional.

Roberta was FANTASTIC!! She went way beyond our expectations! Not only was she experienced and communicative, but she developed an understanding and bond with our dog that I’ve seldom seen before. Beyond the dog sitting, she took it upon herself to empty the dishwasher and wash the sheets, towels and dish towels she had used, which again, I’ve never seen before! In fact, the house looked better than when we left. Thanks a million, Roberta!! Both Rio and us hope to see you soon again!

Olivia watched our senior dog and did an amazing job! Our dog loves her and she’s watched him a few times. She was super responsive, took care of him by giving him meds and walking him, shared photos with us, and left our house clean. We definitely recommend booking her to care for your pets!

Wendy is awesome! She kept us updated with pics of our pup while away and was responsive before and during booking. Our dog has a lot of energy and Wendy kept up with him playing fetch and keeping him happy. She stayed at our place for almost a week, and we came back to a clean house and a happy dog (she even took out the trash and washed the sheets of the guest bed!). Wendy was great, and we will definitely be using her again for our next travel!

Diana had just finished a ~10 day stay with our two doodles, and we asked her at the last minute if she'd be available to stay a couple more days while we added on a last minute side trip to visit family. We were SO grateful to Diana to accomodate this last minute ask, she did it enthusiastically and the girls were so happy to see her when she returned for the bolted on weekend.

Bridgette is a gem!!!!! She’s kind, an animal lover, respectful of our and our dogs wishes, and so caring and aware of the details. We have two pups and one warms up to strangers right away and the other is much more hesitant. Bridgette cared for both my dogs wonderfully. She sent us extra pictures and updates to make us feel even better since we haven’t used her as a doggo sitter before. She also was so incredibly accommodating at the last minute when we reached out due to a cancellation and even made time for a meet and greet. What a cool, kind, and compassionate gal!!!! We recommend highly and really did feel safe with and trusting of her 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Emma is amazing! I have had her help with my dog, Chloe, for over 3 years. Chloe does not like many people, but she loves Emma and cries out happy cries at the sight of her. Emma takes her on walks, plays with her, and throws the ball (her favorite). Emma is calm and loving and loves animals! I have shared her info with my mom and brother; they also love using her!

Po was very well taken care by Caroline even with all of his special attention he requires. He was as happy as could be when I got back home and I knew that he was in good hands from the moment I met her. She is a truly wonderful Rover and I recommend her for anybody in need! Will definitely book again.

About: We will go above and beyond to treat your home and pets like they're our own. We know the stress of leaving pets behind to travel! Although they will miss you so much, we will make sure that they feel extra loved until you come back. I am currently playing professional volleyball in San Diego for the next six months, and my husband is working remotely as an administrative assistant for our church. We both have plenty of down time to hang out and play with your pets! My husband and I have both had pets, and have sat houses for many years. My sister-in-law has a house sitting business in which she calls on us whenever she is unavailable. We have cared for all types of animals, of all ages including dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, and reptiles. Our rule of thumb is to treat the home and the pets like they are our own. We make sure to go above and beyond what is demanded and communicate daily so you know that your loved ones happy and healthy.
