“Lee took such great care of our dog over the holidays. We were so at ease even as first time boarders. She sent frequent updates which we really appreciated. We will be using her services again and highly recommend for other dog parents”
“Chad was incredibly nice and such a pleasure to work with! My dog Sammy came back happy and relaxed after staying with Chad, and he was super sweet to send me pictures during Sammy’s stay!”
“Suzanne did an excellent job caring for our almost 2-y/o Cockapoo while we were in Hawaii. The whole process was seamless and we had full confidence that he was well cared for. She had other dogs at the time, so he was able to romp around and play with friends all day. Highly recommend!”
“The best sitters! Molly always comes home so relaxed and is clearly SO comfortable with Natalie and Mathew. We’re so lucky to have found them!”
“Kelly took wonderful care of my two senior dogs. They can home happy and relaxed and showed no signs of stress. I was able to enjoy my vacation worry free because Kelly provided lots of photos, videos, and updates and I could see his happy my pups were. I am so grateful to have found Kelly and am looking forward to being able to enjoy weekends away again.”
“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”
“Alexandra was an incredible pet sitter for my almost 3-year-old mini bull terrier. Alexandra is a clear communicator, proactive, kind, responsible, attentive, and loves animals. My dog stayed with Alexandra and her two kiddos for 5 days/nights, and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Alexandra's excellent communication. She kept me updated and texted me each day before I had a chance to worry about anything (after all, she was caring for my fur baby!). I felt at ease knowing that my pup was in loving and attentive hands, and I could text any time I felt the need. My dog is super friendly and also has some behavior quirks. She can get overexcited, and Alexandra had no problem following all the care instructions. She noticed my dog's comfort or discomfort and ensured she got what she needed. When I picked up my pup, she was quite content and even gave Alexandra a little lick goodbye, which told me even more about the care Alexandra and her family gave my little one. So many thanks, and I will definitely book again!!”
“Emerson is a great dog sitter! Very attentive and sends updates while you are away. Great back concrete patio for dogs to play and a park trail nearby where they go on lots of walks. Highly recommend especially if your dog likes other dogs.”
“This is the 2nd time we used Kit to board our dog Barry. She was great! We were given regular updates on his activities. And she took such good care of him that Barry thought he was on an extended playdate. We would recommend her services anytime.”
“Jeff and Beth took great care of Riley. They spent a lot of time playing with her and treated her just like part of their family. Riley had a wonderful time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in such capable hands.”
“Both Nicola and Michael took such good care of my dog Lu. She was so happy when I picked her up. They understood very well, her needs and quirks. I appreciated that they were patient with her as new spaces can be a lot and she can be timid and scared. Will 100% book again!”
“Best Rover we have ever used! They went above and beyond to truly make sure Itchy was cared for while we were gone, and made him a part of their family. Itchy loved his time there and we will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Hy and Arlo watched my girl Priscilla for a week while I was out of the country and I will 100% have them watch her again. Pris is sometimes reactive to other dogs, so I'm always nervous leaving her in someone else's care (especially when I'm a flight away!), but Hy and Arlo had experience with this and I felt totally comfortable. I knew it was a good match from the first time I brought her over for a meet and greet. Pris just walked right in, rolled all over the carpet, and made herself at home. I can tell she was well loved and cared for in our absence! I highly recommend.”
About: I’d love to care for and walk your pets. Dog park romps, petting sessions, and snuggling provided. I care for them in my home or drop into your home as needed. Experience with large animals, geriatric and young animals. If you are traveling and need a reliable, fun, experienced sitter for your pets, I’d be happy to do a meet and greet and meet you and your pets. I have a 6year old neutered male Australian Sheppard and a 2 year old indoor/outdoor cat. Both are amenable to sharing their space with new furry friends. I'm an active retiree so I have plenty of time for your furry family members. My dog loves to play with new furry friends or chill and give them space. I have a fenced yard and dog door for in and out privileges. I accept dogs that are crated at night or free roaming. Home is well suited to pets.
“Kristen and Ryan were very welcoming of our pup! They were understanding of her nuances and helped her adjust to a new environment fast. They have a nice spacious home with a big backyard that our dog loved relaxing in. Kristen and Ryan were very communicative throughout the stay and sent daily updates with photos. 100% recommend!”
“Kit took wonderful care of our Golden Retriever, Josie, in her home while we were away. She welcomed Josie warmly, and our dog seemed to feel right at home almost immediately. We loved that Kit sent us a text daily with updates on how things were going, complete with photos. Many thanks for taking such exceptional care of our Josie for us, Kit! We highly recommend Kit.”
“Jeff and Kim were amazing hosts! They were incredibly accommodating with the drop-off, sent tons of cute pictures of Maddie having fun, and were again amazing in the pick-up when we had complications getting home from the airport. We 100% will be using Jeff and Kim when our pupper needs someone caring and understanding to take care of her - we've already booked her next stay!”
