1. Sarah C.
“Sarah is the BEST! We contact her FIRST whenever we have a need for a sitter. She's great with our little guy and her dogs are very sweet too! 100% recommend without reservations.”
2. Whitney S.
“This is the 3rd time my dog Kodak has stayed with Whitney and I have nothing but good things to say. Whitney and her entire household ensure that my dog feels loved and cared for to the utmost degree. He is allowed on the couch and he bed, and I get pictures showing him happily chilling with Whitney as well as with her kids and housemate. Kodak loves them all and actually races up the stairs to her front door each time I drop him off. Whitney is very accomodating in terms of drop off and pick up times, and is a great communicator who responds quickly to messages as well. She's a true gem and has become my go-to dog sitter on Rover,”
3. Aaron C.
“Aaron was absolutely fabulous with my dog, Rufus! He we flexible with time and great with providing updates. Knowing that Rufus had backyard to play in and one on one care was ideal for us. Rufus came back to us in a great mood. It was truly doggie vacation for him!”
4. Kathleen K.
“Our dog Sprout loves staying with Kathleen!! She is so well cared for and comes home tired from adventures with Porter, who is the sweetest companion!”
5. Elisabeth K.
“I can't recommend Elisabeth highly enough! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Ollie, and it was clear from the start how much love and attention she gave him. Every day, she sent multiple high-quality photos and detailed updates that showed just how happy and comfortable he was in her care. She went above and beyond by dressing the dogs in warm outfits and taking them on engaging walks, keeping Ollie active and entertained. Not only did she keep him well-exercised, but she also worked on teaching him commands! It is obvious how much she cares about providing a safe, loving, and enriching environment for the dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away for the holidays. Thank you for watching Ollie!”
6. Anne B.
“Anne was the most attentive, caring Rover! She watched my pup for 14 days and kept me in the loop with amazing updates every day. I had complete ease of mind knowing she had Rosie in her care while I was away. I could not recommend Anne more as a Rover!”
7. Yuki (Xue) Y.
“Yuki was so great with our dog, Sadie! Her apartment is perfectly set up to welcome a dog and had toys at the ready. She kept Sadie entertained while we discussed her routine and needs. We felt very relieved to have found Yuki for Sadie's overnight care and we got some happy pictures of her while we were away. Yuki was very communicative and we appreciated her flexibility on timing of the drop offs and pick up. We look forward to having Yuki care for Sadie again. Thank you!”
8. Lawson R.
“Welcoming and safe environment, grateful my dog got exercise, played with the kids, and was treated like one of the family. Appreciate this very much”
9. Vicky P.
“I worry about leaving my dog with anyone but Marley felt right at home almost immediately which made me feel at ease. I HIGHLY recommended Victoria, couldn’t have asked for better.”
10. Stephen M.
“Stephen was great watching my pup Piper. He was super accommodating on times and pick ups even though this was a last-minute request and even more so he was really gentle and welcoming on the fact that she had an accident and is a bit of a hyper energetic pup.”
11. Viva L.
“Viva is awesome. Timely, communicative and thoughtful with her questions. She made sure all the boxes were checked in terms of my dogs needs and habits. Pictures and updates everyday, which was awesome! She and her partner took the time to bring her on some great adventures too. Totally thankful for a no-stress experience so I could enjoy my vacation!”
12. Elizabeth S.
“Elizabeth is awesome! We left our chihuahua with her for about 2 weeks while we were out of town, and we felt so comfortable knowing our little baby was in such a loving home, with someone who adores dogs as much as Elizabeth does! She sent us pictures, videos, and sweet little updates everyday, and we even had the opportunity to FaceTime with our little angel 🐾 We forgot to pack our dog’s winter coat, and it got quite cold, but Elizabeth had an extra coat that she bundled her in to make sure she was safe and warm on their walks through Evergreen. Also, our little pup gets nervous when we leave her and sometimes won’t eat because of it, but Elizabeth HAND FED her! And then she ate her whole dinner like that. Can you believe that? If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about how much Elizabeth cares, I don’t know what will. One more way that Elizabeth went above and beyond that really meant the world to us, was how flexible she was with scheduling. We had some unexpected very-last-minute changes to our trip, but Elizabeth was extremely accommodating, kind, and patient. She really had our back. Elizabeth is such a good person, and you can tell that she really cares about you, as well as your dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and above-and-beyond to take care of your beloved dog, look no further! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Elizabeth!”
13. Danielle A.
“I can always count on. Danielle to take the best care of my Casco. He is very high energy but she appreciates the Springer spaniel personality! She keeps me updated and lets me know how snugly he is. We use her often and always are grateful.”
14. Alma D.
“We had a wonderful experience with Alma, who invited our Whoopie into her home and family. When possible, Alma also arranges a meet and greet before the stay to ensure a good fit. Thank you so much Alma! We hope we can meet again and reunite dogs and people.”
15. Kelly D.
“Coconut's stay at Kelly's was fabulous. She took her out on an adventure, let her sleep on her bed, and overall showed a lot of empathy and understanding for pets. Her place is clean and very dog friendly. We would absolutely book with Kelly again!”
16. Pamela T.
“Pam was friendly, thoughtful, caring, flexible, quick to respond, and sent lots of pictures and updates!! After our meet and greet with Pam, and seeing how our Maizy girl responded to her, we felt very fortunate! We were excited to have found Pam and Maizy got lots of walks & affection on her weekend vacation while we visited family out of state. When the traffic affected our intended pickup time, Pam was very quick to set our minds at ease. We highly recommend Pam! Could not have asked for more. When next we have a weekend away, we truly hope you will be available again! Thank you !!”
17. Diane J.
About: I’m educated, reliable, and love pets. I also take care of senior citizens and always host my children’s pups when they are visiting for the holidays. There will be zero concern for your pet while under my care. I’m attentive, organized and as a mother of 6, very patient and compassionate. I’ve loved and taken care of dogs my whole life. I’m retired and love to be active. I don’t want a dog full time because I enjoy traveling to see my children in Miami and LA. I do love animals and will be a reliable companion to your loved ones. I have a crate, dog bed, and all standard medicines in the case of emergency. My condo is always clean with a fresh scent and some relaxing music playing in the background. I’m able to take them to the dog park, walks, and lots of cuddles.
18. Kristian N.
“Once again Kris took great care of my dog Molly. Molly loves to stay with her and I’m happy to have found someone I can feel comfortable leaving her with when I need to.”
19. Skyler N.
“Skyler took great care of my 13 year dog while I was away on a work trip. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times, and she adjusted activity levels based upon how Mala was feeling each day. Overall, I think Mala had a great vacation with Skyler and would like to visit her again!”
20. Jennifer B.
“Luna’s new home away from home! She was so well cared for, it made it easier to be away. Jennifer was great about sending photos of all of their adventures, and keeping me updated. Luna can’t wait to go back 😊”
