I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.

This was my first time using the app, and I couldn’t be happier with the care Laura provided. She was friendly, attentive, and a pleasure to communicate with throughout my dog’s stay. I really appreciated the regular photos and updates—it gave me such peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. I would happily use her services again and highly recommend her.

Our son was getting married in upstate NY so we needed a sitter for our dog Kai while we were away. We have always left Kai with either family or friends, but since everyone we knew was attending the wedding I reached out to Laura. We set up a meet and greet -I knew from the first time I met her that she was a perfect match. She was warm and kind - obviously a dog lover - and she made a connection with our normally shy dog right away. She asked a lot of questions about Kai's habits - she wanted to make sure she followed his normal daily routine so that he would be comfortable in her home.. Her house is beautiful and she has a large, fenced in back yard that allowed Kai to run free in a safe environment. Laura took him for a 3 mile daily walk, and sent many pictures and updates the whole 6 days she had him. He became a part of her family❤️ I cannot say enough about how happy we were to have found her. She gave us peace of mind that Kai was well loved and cared for so we were able to enjoy the wedding without any worries. I would HIGHLY recommend Laura to anyone looking for a sitter!!

About: Growing up with both cats and dogs, I’ve been around animals for most of my life. While I may not have formal pet care experience, I understand the responsibility and attention they require to feel comfortable and secure. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to providing the same level of care and respect that I would expect for my own pets. Whether it’s keeping an energetic dog engaged or ensuring a senior pet is comfortable, I strive to create a safe and positive experience while you’re away. With a busy work schedule, I dedicate one to two days a week to pet sitting, ensuring I can provide attentive and reliable care. By limiting my availability, I’m able to focus fully on each pet, giving them the time and attention they deserve. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable experience while keeping pet owners updated and informed. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment in every pet care experience. Whether providing care in my home or during walks, I ensure pets are in a secure, stress-free setting. I follow any specific instructions from owners, maintain a clean and pet-friendly space, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. My goal is to create a positive and safe experience, giving owners peace of mind while their pets are in my care.

About: I have owned multiple dogs for the past six years, all with varying energy levels and needs. I currently have a jack russell mix, a terrier mix, and a boxer/rhodesian ridgeback mix. I am comfortable caring for all different shapes and sizes and catering to each individual personality. I currently own my own business as a professional house cleaner and may at times be away for 6-8 hours during the day. Other than that, I am available to spend lots of quality time with your pet. Safety and keeping your pet comfortable is my highest priority. Pets will be supervised when outside and always kept on leash on walks or if no fenced yard is available. I also prefer to keep with their normal schedule as much as possible, including feeding, rest time, exercise, etc.

Our dog Frida just finished her second boarding visit and loved her time with Brit and her family. It’s truly a home away from home for her. We got daily photos and updates. We have an older dog with diabetes and Brit was so helpful in being able to assist her in her feeding/medication requirements. Frida adores Brit, her family, and their dog and we look forward to using their services again moving forward!

I was extremely nervous leaving our 1 year old with someone other than my family as she hasn't left us since we adopted last July. However, my fears were calmed leaving Demi with Nuno. My husband had a great meet and greet and then she stayed with Nuno for a couple nights. Nuno has a wonderful friendly dog, Bisca, and a large yard for the dogs to play. He also has children who showered Demi with love also. ❤️ Great communication while he watched her and I'm already booking him again for our next weekend away!

About: I offer structured, enrichment-focused boarding and daycare in my home, with an emphasis on helping each dog feel safe, understood, and cared for. I’ve been training dogs since 2022 and welcome dogs of all training backgrounds, meeting every dog and owner with compassion, respect, and empathy. I’m comfortable using a variety of tools, including harnesses, e-collars, and prong collars, based on what works best for your dog. I’m a former Veterinary Technician with four years of experience, and I’m confident administering medications, caring for senior dogs, and closely monitoring health and behavior. Your dog’s comfort and well-being are always my top priorities. Boarding includes a structured walk, play and yard time, place/relaxation work, and a hike. For safety and peace of mind, dogs are crated when unsupervised, so boarding clients must be crate trained. All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations, including rabies and distemper. To ensure the best fit and answer any questions, all new clients are required to complete an in-person meet and greet prior to booking. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and able to give dogs consistent attention, structure, and care. Our days include structured walks, enrichment activities, play and yard time, relaxation/place work, and hikes when appropriate. I closely monitor each dog’s behavior, energy level, and comfort, and I tailor care to their individual needs. With my training background and veterinary experience, I’m able to provide attentive, knowledgeable care while keeping dogs safe, calm, and happy in my home. In my home, dogs are cared for in a safe, structured, and comfortable environment. I have kennels in a variety of sizes to ensure every dog can rest comfortably and securely when needed. On days when outdoor activities aren’t possible due to weather, I provide indoor options such as treadmills and a variety of interactive enrichment activities to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. When weather allows, I take advantage of nearby trails and parks to give dogs safe, enriching adventures that suit their energy level and needs.

Millie was well cared for by Catherine and her family. We had a weekend away and she was able to accommodate our drop off and pick up time slots. There were numerous photos which made us feel confident in her care. Great setting with a large yard and only other pet was their cat. Our spaniel does not always grt along with other dogs. Well done! Will viait again:)

My husband & I needed a much needed mini vacation. A friend suggested Rover & we met with Sabina before our trip. We knew right away that she was going to give the nurturing we were looking for. She sent daily pictures and reassured us all was well. She is the perfect care taker for your pet & we highly recommend her!

I cannot say enough good things about Karen. She took care of my dog for 5 nights in her home and he was thrilled to have someone to snuggle and play with. Outings to Harkness Park and other parks in the area and snuggles after a busy day. Karen kept me updated on what they were doing and sent pictures and videos to show me my bubbies was okay. So happy to find such a kind person to watch Rangie. I will definitely use Karen again! We even got a goodie bag when I picked him up with fancy dog treats! Thank you Karen!
