“Lyndsey and Evan took amazing care of Sandy. They made me extremely comfortable that they would treat her like their own and make sure she was not Only very safe but extremely happy. It is a huge relief knowing I can be at work or out of town and know my dog is happy. We will be using them on a regular basis.”
“Emily helped me out on short notice in a very stressful moving situation. i can’t thank her enough for the wonderful care she gave to my brothers three extremely scared cats. i highly recommend Emily.”
“Rook really enjoyed his stay at Brandon’s home! Brandon kept me updated daily with messages, photos, and videos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I truly appreciated the consistent communication and the care he showed for Rook. Highly recommend!”
“Kristyne watched our 6-year-old Cavapoo for 7 nights and was so amazing with our pup! Our dog is a timid and sweet girl who always takes a couple of days to adjust to a new place. Kristyne kept us updated with photos and check ins, and asked questions when she had them. She took such good care of her with lots of snuggles, play time, and walks. We are so grateful and would definitely have our dog visit with Kristyne again!”
“Our active springer spaniel had a great time at Kira's especially with the other dogs who were there at the same time. Kira is very responsive and sent wonderful photos every day we were gone. Highly recommend!”
“Jenna and Micheal took great care of Shep! We loved all the videos and photos they sent over the long weekend - it was so great that Shep had a friend to play with all weekend, he was super tired when we picked him up”
“Sean was a great caretaker for Lady. Super convenient and super understanding of all her needs. He sent me lots of pictures and always responded to me super fast. Will be contacting Sean again to take care of Lady! :)”
“It was my first time using this app and I need someone to take care of my dog for few days when I was out of the state. I was worried because I’ve never have done this before but they made me feel at ease and peace of mind when I was away by sending pictures and videos of her, and knowing that she was ok. I definitely recommend them to taking care of your pets.”
“Alyson is truly amazing! She gave us updates regularly and I felt so happy knowing our dog was in a loving place! Our dog was the happiest she’s ever been after picking her up from a sitter, so I know she was really well cared for! Will definitely plan to use Alyson again for sitting!”
“Ozzie had a trial stay with Angelica for one week, following a meet and greet with her two doggos. She did everything she could to ensure we were as comfortable as possible leaving him in her house. I believe she had other dog(s) too during Ozzie's stay. Lots of pics and one video were also sent to us. Nice to see they all get along well. Angelica is very responsive and accommodating when we needed to extend Ozzie's stay. She was a huge help :)”
“Bear, our energetic 10.5 yr old poodle, had a great time with Tessa (and Charlie) while we were out of the country. Tessa was great with communication from start to finish and kept us updated while we were away with notes and pictures. She (and Charlie) ensured Bear was part of their pack! She also made sure he ate well, especially with his picky diet and finicky eating patterns. He came back to us happy! We would absolutely call upon Tessa again to care for Bear while we are away.”
“Someone recently told me that they never met a Peggy who isn’t wonderful, and after leaving our dog with Peggy M. and her family for a long weekend, I completely agree! They were so kind, flexible, sent consistent pictures and updates, and our pup looked genuinely torn to leave their home when we picked her up - so much so that she said goodbye to each family member individually. I cannot recommend Peggy enough - if you are looking for a fun, family environment that will love your dog like their own while you’re away, she is your Rover.”
“Bo & Xiaosong were AMAZING! Our Westie Fergus had a wonderful long stay and we’ll definitely be back. We greatly appreciated the frequent texts, photos and videos which showed us Fergus was enjoying himself! There happened to be a heatwave while we were away and Bo & Xiaosong took extra effort to take good care, walking at early and late hours when the heat was minimal. They even cooked him chicken when they worried he wasn’t eating enough! Such outstanding dog sitters! Highly, highly recommend!”
“I would leave my fur babies with Bethany again in a heart beat! She and her son took excellent care of lily and Liam. They had a great time snuggling with them and they were able to meet new fur friends which they really needed since they don’t get a chance to play with other dogs since this messy Covid started!”
“Eleanor was wonderful! Tucker felt right at home and adapted seamlessly to being away from home for a few days. Eleanor gave him lots of love and took great care of him. She also sent us several videos, pictures and messages every day, which were really appreciated as this was the first time he stayed with a non family member so we really didn’t know what to expect! We highly recommend Eleanor to care for your pet!”
“John and Sharon were very accommodating and Darby was in "zen mode" when I picked him up. He was well cared for and they were wonderful to work with. Thank you!”
“Haley was so helpful and great! Our pup had a great time with her. She calmed his initial nervousness and was great to work with. Quick to communicate and very personable. We will definitely keep her in mind for any sitting and boarding needs we have in the future!”
