“Jesus was very awesome with my Kobe!! He sent me pictures and my heart was at ease with him keeping him in his home!! Thanks again and Kobe will be back again!”


2. Kat J.
“Kat has been taking care of my beloved boxer/shar pei named Mya Sunshine for more than a year now. Mya Sunshine has special needs that Kat adheres to easily and comprehensively. Her home is clean and comfortable and filled with other dogs who make the experience enjoyable for socialized pets. She also has the means to keep pets separated if their needs dictate. Overall, she's completely in tune with every animal's needs who cross her path. I highly recommend her services. She's both professional and personable.”


3. Laurie K.
“I have known Laurie for almost 40 years. She is trustworthy, kind, compassionate, patient, and has a great sense for attention to detail. She is an animal lover, especially with dogs. Her fur babies, past and present, have always been treated as family. Laurie will be completely dedicated and loving while caring for your best friend.”


4. Kaneishia H.

“This is my first time having someone outside of my family watch my fur baby. Kanesiha was so good with my dog. She sent messages videos and pictures to keep me up to date on my dog. She will be my go to sitter”


5. Jesseeka G.

“Excellent. Gave us a ton of picture, more than any other sitter we’ve had on rover. And due to issues at airport I was an hour late picking her up, and she was totally accommodating. Highly recommended!”


6. Sheree H.

“Omg!!! I’m so happy I found Sheree! I’m a nervous Nancy when I have to leave Oreo. He enjoyed himself fully. Sheree sent plenty of pictures and kept me informed of his day. The stay also was beneficial to Oreo to help him be more socialized. He will be back…very soon.”


7. Rose C.

“Buddy loved being at Rose’s house. She sent pictures to let me know how he was doing. It appeared that Buddy made himself right at home and enjoyed basking in the sun in the back yard and hanging with Rose’s 2 dogs. He came home a very happy boy and we’ll be sure to use Rose as our dog sitter whenever we head out of town or whenever Buddy needs some canine companionship for a day! 😊 All in all a great experience.”


8. Monica & Daniel C.

“Chance was well taken care of. We received daily updates including pictures of Chance. He always looked comfortable and happy which in turn allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing Chance was in good hands. Monica and Dan were excellent and will always be our first choice to keep Chance when we need to be away! We highly recommend Monica and Dan, as long as Chance gets/is given priority status. P.S. Chance will like to potentially request a stay in mid April and late October ?!”


9. Doris A.

“Doris did a fantastic job! I really appreciated the periodic photos she sent of my puppy to let me know he was ok. I confidently look forward to using Doris' services again in the future.”


10. Carmelle Joy H.

“I had surgery unexpectedly and Joy and Dan accepted my last minute request of dog boarding. My puppy was very excited to go back there and when I picked him up he was very happy. He had a very good visit with them. I am very satisfied with the care that they provided to my puppy.”


11. Jenevieve R.

“My service request was last montane she accommodated me. My dog normally doesn’t eat with baby sitters but he ate with her after the 2nd booking. I was also late picking him up due to unforeseen circumstances and she accommodated!!! Her communication was great and I highly recommend!!! She is my first pick.”


12. Toya S.

“Toya is so sweet with my cat!! Beyond just taking care of him with such care, she is quick to respond and updates me the whole time she is cat sitting and keeps my heart at ease. All the directions I asked her to follow were not taken lightly and she ensured the safety of my cat above all things. 10/10 would recommend Toya to anyone looking for a cat sitter!! She’s the best”


13. Kassia W.

“Very professional, called ahead to gather more information and ask questions about my dog specifically, and was very open to any questions I had as a first time user. When I went to pick up my dog, he was excited to see me but also wanted to go up to Kassia and her family one last time before we left. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


14. Barbara O.

“Barbara was a great communicator! She sent us an update with photos everyday! She and her husband made my Bella's staycation awesome! Highly recommend!”


15. Chloe K.

“Absolutely delighted with her services. Great communicator, took care of our puppy so well! Hopefully she will be our dog sitter moving forward!”


16. Tino B.

“We have used Tino to watch our dog, Oscar a few times. Tino is great with communication, taking walks and sending pictures. Oscar feels very comfortable when we walk in which is a very good sign that he is happy in his home. His family is also loving to Oscar and gives him positive attention. Based on our experience this past year, I feel confident to recommend Tino.”




17. Eleanor W.


“Happy is a Corgi/Collie mix who had only been with us for 3 months when my wife and I had to go to a family wedding in another state. As Happy was newly rescued we really didn't want to put here back into a kennel so we looked on dogvacay for help. Luckily we found Eleanor. Eleanor is a natural with dogs and even on the initial meet and greet it was only a matter of minutes before Happy was merrily dashing around the large fenced in yard chasing another visiting dog. So a week or so later we went to Tennessee and Happy went to Eleanor. Eleanor looked after Happy well and Happy showed no signs of having been distressed and definitely seems to have appreciated the human company. Overall a great experience and well definitely consider Eleanor next time we have to go out of town.”


18. Ana & Byron C.
“Ana and Byron saved the day… I had a babysitter cancel while I’m on my way to her house. I was totally distraught and glad Anna was available and has baby sit for me in the past my two frenchies love them and always happy to see them.”


19. Iman M.

“Iman has watched Honey several times. This time, I wasn't able to get back from an out of town trip to pick Honey up on the scheduled date. Iman had no problem with watching her an extra day. Iman is caring, reliable, communicative, and my dog loves her!”


20. Michele W.

“Michele was amazing! I had a last minute request and Michele responded quickly and answered all my questions. She sent pictures and videos of my girl throughout the day. Coco really enjoyed her time with her.”
