1. Lauren S.

“Lauren is a dog lover and I am very pleased and happy with her taking a good care of my dog. She updated me everyday with photos of my dog and condition of my dog that made me felt comfortable and relaxed while I was gone from home. She is always smiling, kind and considerate for dogs. I would recommend her for anyone for needs a dog sitter. I surely will contact her again next time when we need one.”


2. Jennifer G.

“Absolutely wonderful! Not only were they so kind to Olive, but they were understanding when our scheduling needed an amendment, at the last minute. They sent us pictures each day and we could see how happy Olive was staying them. Thank you for treating Olive like she was your own. We look forward to having her stay with you all again.”


3. Voss L.

“Amazing sitter and worked me with on my scheduling better than anyone else I’ve seen. Let my lab play and run around and he came back excited!”


4. Andrew C.

“Andy did a great job helping Nate feel at home. Nate got snacks he likes and outside breaks that were on his schedule. Andy sent a lot of updates with pictures. Besides the cute pictures, Andy sent me a picture that showed Nate feeling relaxed. Frankly, I was glad Nate still wanted to come home! Andy understands dogs, has an appreciation for the variety of normal dog behavior, and really does love dogs. His daughter also really loves dogs. Although I found Andy through Rover, a mutual friend confirmed that he’s a dog lover and would trust him with her dogs. Knowing that we had mutual friends was literally an answer to prayer. I would definitely trust this family with Nate again.”




5. Tania Z.


“Great home for a dog! Family of dog lovers, and other dogs to play with in the house too. Easy communication, and great photo and video updates while we were away. We will definitely bring our dog back to Tania's house next time we need a sitter.”


6. Kath & Jordan R.

“The communication, photos, and care have been great. We can trust that our dogs will come home happy, which is especially important for our older anxious girl. I’m pretty sure our girls are just as happy and comfortable at their house as they are ours .”


7. Amy H.

“Amy was phenomenal! She sent pictures of Cassie (my dog) doing activities (playing, walks and just sniffing around), was great about communicating and was exactly what I had wanted in a good sitter. Highly recommend!”


8. Chloe L.

“Elle loved staying with Chloe. I had a sitter cancel last minute and she was more than accommodating. She kept me updated with texts, pics and videos. She has other dogs that Elle loved.”


9. Sarah R.

“Sarah is amazing! It was our first time using her and Ollie absolutely loved staying there. She'd take him on walks, send me updates, and pictures. She's such a great person! I'm looking forward to using her more often!”


10. Katie W.
“Katie has taken loving care of our dogs - both of whom required very specific handling around food and other dogs. We mostly relied on her for care during a very difficult transition for our elderly dog that meant the world to us. It was because of Katie's commitment and reliability that we were able to keep our precious girl as comfortable and healthy for as long as we were. In addition to the exceptional care she provided for our elderly dog, she handled our younger, bigger, more rambunctious dog with ease, and managed the interactions between the two of them very well. We highly recommend Katie!”


11. Kelsey E.

“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! She is incredibly welcoming, and friendly. My senior dog had the BEST weekend in her care, definitely coming back!”


12. Ashleigh J.

“Ashleigh was super nice and responsive! My doggy had such a good time I would definitely book again and recommend to friends!”




13. Erin M.

“Erin was absolutely amazing with our puppy Hobie! We got daily updates, he came back so happy and tired from playing all day, and when he tripped over his own four paws and got a scratch on his face Erin treated it like a true medical issue and made sure his scratch was looked at by a professional and treated just in case. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and will definitely be using her again.”


14. Amanda T.

“Visiting town and needed a last minute sitter. Amanda was excellent and Felix had the best time. Got cute photo updates the whole time. Would definitely book with her again!”


15. Shelby B.
“Shelby was the best! This was the first time my dog would be staying with someone that wasn’t family or friends. Shelby eased my fear by sending multiple updates, photos and even a video. Thank you again Shelby!!”




16. Casey N.


“Casey and her husband were great to work with from the meet and greet to the pickup. They sent us tons of nice photos and we could tell our doggie was spoiled and loved hanging out. Thanks for the nice stay!!!”


17. Ann S.

“Ann, was awesome. She was able to accommodate my last minute request. She also met me and picked up Charly. She sent some regular updates and even took some great pictures of Charly.”


18. Larkin D.

“Excellent care! Made sure Carmelo was comfortable throughout his stay and provided great updates. Very reliable and communicative, would definitely love to have Larkin watch Carmelo again!”


19. Laura B.

“This was the first time I had left my five-year-old corgi since adopting him five months ago. Laura gave him all the attention and walks he needed. My only disappointment was that he wasn’t more excited to see me when I got back! He will definitely remember Laura next time.”


20. Nathan B.

“Nathan was great with Remy and she loved staying with him. He was a great communicator, sending videos and photos. I highly recommend him and will be booking him again!”
