“Brian and Sheena were great with Charlie. They sent us pics daily and updates on how he was doing. We are grateful for their care of him. Also our plane was delayed, so we were an hour late picking him up. They were very understanding. We will use them again.”


“Absolutely wonderful experience that Star had with Eli. Eli did an amazing job taking care of Star and we will return to him every time we are in need of a sitter for our dog. Thank you Eli!”


“Great experience! Kept me well informed. Was tentative to my elderly ladies and some of their special needs. Provided some good techniques and resources to help with my golden furgals older age. Will definitely be a repeat!”


“Nicole was amazing! She communicated very well, sent texts with updates, she sent pictures and she answered every call and text. I was nervous for my first boarder experience but she made it SO easy and comfortable! Her energy and aura will make you feel at ease! I will definitely be using her again💯”


“Coralis is wonderful and took great care of my dog Kurumi ! I will absolutely book her again. Her dog bean is super sweet and got along well with my dog really nicely (they even played tug of war together !)”

“Link was well taken care of. Mark gave daily updates and he took amazing pictures. Link is an anxious dog, but I could see as the days went on he was looking more and more relaxed in the pics. 10/10”



“Excellent service provided for our 4 month old German Shepherd over a four night stay. Sitter was patient, kind and very nice with our puppy. Would recommend to all family and friends for their overnight stay.”



“Jeff was excellent! By far the best Rover experience I have had. He helped me out last minute and was super accommodating and friendly. He communicated with me multiple times a day about how my dog was doing and I could tell her genuinely cared for her well being. He also has an awesome fenced in back yard which is a dog’s dream. I would highly recommend.”

“I left my kitten (4wks old) with Karen and Harrison and their animal menagerie and he went from being a bit overwhelmed to fully integrated into the whole household. He made best friends with another young cat and was mothered by one of their pups. I couldn't be happier with the opportunity to socialize him while we were away! Got lots of updates and videos along the way, which really put me at ease. Thanks, Karen! Happy to have found y'all.”


“This was my first time using the service and can truly say that I was VERY SATISFIED in choosing Nani. This was Gizmo's first time being boarded at someone's home with other dog friends to play and socialize with. Upon meeting her, Gizmo ran towards her which gave me a warm feeling that he liked her. During the stay, Nani sent me daily updates with photos and videos on how Gizmo was doing and their daily tasks which was heart warming knowing my fur baby was in good hands. I will be using Nani again for future boarding as Gizmo looks forward to more play dates with Mr. Leon and Miss Leah.”


“Samsara and her daughter Layla are phenomenal! They did an awesome job taking care of my furbaby. I felt at ease with having my dog in their care and will definitely have them pet sit for me again! You will not be disappointed with their service! Thank you again Samsara and Layla for your dogspitality!”


“Ylicia was fantastic! She was incredibly responsive and flexible, which made me feel completely at ease leaving my boy with her. She provided regular updates, along with pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely rebook with her and highly recommend her to others!”


“Jackalyn was absolutely amazing with my Melo! She sent daily updates and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while he was boarding. Melo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I would definitely recommend anyone else to book with her!”


“Alder and Kathy were like second parents to Marley. He had an awesome time and was so happy when we picked him up. I will absolutely use their services again. Marley cannot wait until our next vacation so he can stay with you guys! Thanks for taking such good care of my baby.”


“Lily was great with Fitz and great with communication. Fitz's stay was very last minute, but she was able to make time for us to see if it would be a good fit and coordinate drop off. Would happily have Fitz stay with her again.”


“Rocky had a great time with Vivian and her family. This was Rocky’s first time with Vivian and her family so I was a bit worried since I would be away for over a week but she kept me at ease sending me pics and daily updates to go along with the pics. I would def leave my fur baby with Vivian and her family in the future. Thank you so much again Vivian!”


“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Estela and her family! From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they provided daily updates and photos, and followed every instruction with great care and attention to detail. This was our first time leaving our youngest behind, and we felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in such loving hands. It was clear when we picked them up that both Gianni and Valentino were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Their behavior spoke volumes about how comfortable they were during their stay. We even ended up extending our trip, and Estela was incredibly accommodating. We’re so grateful for the exceptional care and will definitely be using their services again in the near future.”


“Asha is amazing! It was our dog's first time with a sitter and we were nervous. Asha updated us regularly and took special note of what was needed to help our girl feel more comfortable. We will definitely be booking with Asha again. Thanks for such a great experience!”

I can’t recommend Vivian enough! She took wonderful care of my dog, Chloe, while I was away for a few days. She was very communicative, kept me updated, and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me peace of mind the entire time. It was clear Chloe was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Truly a 5-star sitter — I will definitely be booking with her again!

I am so happy I booked with Alder and Kathy!!!! They took such good care of my senior dog, Miley. From the moment I walked into their home, I knew Miley would be in good hands while I was away. They also sent videos and pics. I will definitely be booking with Alder and Kathy again!

Amber is the sweetest soul!!!!! She is truly a gem!!!!! My little girl Mia adore her and so does she adore my little girl! She communicates exceptionally well and takes away any concerns you may have. She literally takes care of your pets like they are hers as well! I will definitely request for Amber every time! Thank you so much again!

I don’t have a lot of experience using Rover, but Luisa is by far the best sitter I’ve ever met. She’s incredibly kind, thoughtful. She sent me so many photos and updates — more than anyone else ever has — which made me feel so reassured. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for.

I can't thank Shalena enough for taking such good care of my dog for three days! From the start, she was incredibly reliable, communicative, and attentive to his needs. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Peanut was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed his time with her and the other dogs. I highly recommend Shalena to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

We had a great experience with Bria watching our dog, Maximus, from Monday to Thursday. Maximus seemed happy and well taken care of the entire time. We especially appreciated the constant photo and update messages—it’s always reassuring to see your pup having fun while you’re away. She also went above and beyond by accommodating a delayed flight and keeping Maximus past the original booking time without any issues. Highly recommend!

Our pup’s stay with Estela was super! She accommodated a change in drop-off & pick-up. She sent daily pics and by the time I picked him up I could tell she knew our dog’s personality. Our dog looked happy and healthy-he was also not pulling to leave as in other experiences. Highly recommended!

We couldn’t be happier with the care Steven, Faben, and Roshe provided for our 1-year-old shepherd, Ellie, while we were away on a 10-day work trip. From the start, they were incredibly responsive and helpful during the booking process and even arranged a thoughtful meet-and-greet so Ellie and Roshe could get to know each other beforehand. Throughout Ellie’s stay, they sent us daily updates and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she was having a great time and was in loving, capable hands. We highly recommend their boarding services and would gladly work with them again!

My experience with Faben was wonderful! At our meet and greet, she showed me her house and where my dog would stay and I felt at peace right away that we had made the right choice. Dropping off my dog and picking him up 5 nights later, I was so glad we did! Faben sent pics and kept in touch daily, sometimes more, as needed to ask me to clarify my instructions. My dog had a great time and I will surely use her services again in the future. Her dog is adorable too!
