“Sarahi and Leandro did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 dogs for a week while we were on vacation! Their home is very clean and smells very clean. They have a large fenced in backyard for the dogs to run around and play! They sent us photos and videos every day! All the dogs looked very comfortable and they got walks a couple times a day! We would highly recommend Sarahi and Leandro if you need care for your dogs. They are also very good with keeping the dogs safe and secure. We would love to have them watch our dogs again if we go out of town. Thank you for the loving care of our dogs! Jackie & Joe”
“Cannot be happier with Martha’s care and communication. She’s watched Filbert a couple times and each time the communication and updates have been impeccable. The latest stay was a little over two weeks and we were worry free knowing she was taking care of him as if he were her family.”
“Brooke is a wonderful sitter for our Mr Cookie. He is so comfortable and looks happy in the daily photos we receive. We don’t want anyone but Brooke!”
“This was our third time using Rover, and once again, it was a great experience! We left Zeus with Nathaniel, and we couldn’t be happier with the care he gave him. He is very kind and friendly, and he made both of us feel completely at ease from the very beginning. Nathaniel is reliable, responsible, and honest—everything you could hope for when leaving your pet with someone. He treated our furry friend like his own, which we truly appreciated. A big plus is that he’s located very close to the airport, which made drop-off and pick-up super easy and convenient on our way home. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would definitely leave our big dog with him again!”
“I was very impressed with the update pictures that we received multiple times a day. We could tell our babies were having fun and felt comfortable. They had many playmates with the other dogs that were there as well. I would book again in a heartbeat if need be.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Daniel provided for my dogs, Sunny and Diva! He went above and beyond, sending me daily picture and video updates that showed how well they were doing. It gave me such peace of mind to see them happy and well-cared for. I will definitely rebook again in the future!”
“Carly and her family were absolutely amazing while watching my very vocal senior dog, Gracie, for 21 days. From the moment we dropped her off, I could tell she was in wonderful hands. They sent daily photos and updates, just the right amount of communication so I always felt informed without ever feeling overwhelmed. They handled her medication and any special needs with such care and attention. It was such a relief knowing Gracie was so well looked after and loved while we were away. I can’t recommend Carly and her family enough, truly exceptional care!”
“Erika is an excellent sitter for my boy. She keep us posted with messages and pictures everyday while we were away. My boy was happy and missing her buddies over Erika's. I'd be gladly use her service again any time we are away. Thank you Erika!”
“Carla was amazing with Pumpkin! She definitely made me feel better as it was our first time leaving Pumpkin with someone. She kept me in the loop of how he was doing by sending me pictures of him. I really appreciated that!”
“Kristin was amazing with my little fur baby! She took care of her like she was her own, and it was such a wonderful experience. She has the perfect setup for dogs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in great hands. Kristin kept me updated, gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure she was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

We got lots of updates along the way and were very glad to come home to our fur babies and see them so well taken care of. I would definitely recommend!”

I cannot recommend Jack highly enough. When I found myself in a last-minute panic and needed someone to care for Loki, Jack stepped in without hesitation and ended up pet-sitting him for nearly a month. Knowing Loki was with someone so caring and experienced gave me tremendous peace of mind during a very stressful time. Throughout Loki's stay, Jack kept me updated and was always responsive whenever I reached out. It was obvious that Loki was receiving lots of attention, care, and affection. By the time Loki arrived in Indonesia, he was healthy, happy, confident, and incredibly well-adjusted. Loki settled in almost immediately, has been eating great, and is thriving. I truly believe that smooth transition was thanks to the excellent care Jack provided while looking after him. Jack treated Loki as if he were his own pet, and I am so grateful for all of his help, kindness, and flexibility. If you're looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter, I would recommend Jack without hesitation. He went above and beyond for both Loki and me, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
You dont even understand how much of a stress reliever Erika is! She takes care of my little baby like her own! 2nd time i hired her and i wouldnt go to anyone else! Ill cancel my plans if shes not available lol! She needs to increase her prices! She is worth triple the price!
Cowboy had a great first stay with Dana & Jared! Dana sent daily updates with lots of pictures of Cowboy settling in while in their home and out exploring during their walks. I loved seeing him become more comfortable in each update. It is great to know he is well-cared for in a safe environment while I am away.
I cannot recommend this pet sitter highly enough! I needed someone on very short notice to watch my 16 year old little Bella and he stepped in without hesitation. From the moment I dropped her off, I knew she was in caring and capable hands. He took exceptional care of my sweet little Bella, making sure she was comfortable, happy, and well-loved while I was away. I received updates that gave me peace of mind, and it was clear that Bella was being treated like part of the family. When I picked her up, she was relaxed, happy, and obviously well cared for. If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy to care for your pet, I wholeheartedly recommend him. I am incredibly grateful for his help and will definitely use his services again in the future! Thank you again, Douglas!
Rebekah and her family were so great, and accommodating to our needs. She really saved us in a pinch! She sent daily photos, and was very commutative about everything from food, to toys and treats that she was giving my pup. I was so thankful Rebekah was able to help us out and care for my hogan !
While looking around to find someone to watch Chase, I was a little nervous because I’ve never left Chase with anybody other than my family. I was looking for somebody who would treat him just the way I would and it was Erin. She sent pictures of Chase every hour which made me feel so at peace. Her and her son both treated Chase so well he was so excited to go back. I will definitely be rebooking back with her when the time is needed. 🩷
This was our first time leaving our dog Gunner with someone other than family, but Brendan made Gunner feel like his family. We received updates and photos twice a day from Brendan and that made us much more comfortable and reassured that Gunner was in great hands and well taken care of. We will definitely rebook with Brendan in the future!
