“Maisha is the best dog sitter ever! She sends updates/pictures often, and ensured that my fur baby was having the best time. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Otter had a lovely stay at Nitasha’s place. They always gave updates with cute photos, and they were very communicative and responsive. Will definitely recommend!”
“Tyson really enjoyed his stay with Ninoska. She sent pictures and videos throughout his stay and he always seemed so happy to be around her and her family and the other puppies. 100% recommend. I am so happy to have found her to board my fur baby!”
“Quang was great with our dog. We received daily updates and cute photos. Juju came back healthy and clean. Thank you Quang for taking good care of Juju!”
“Helped out in a last minute notice in a whole different state and treated pepperoni like he was their own 🥰 I can honestly say I got super lucky with them! I booked a trip to Nj to see the American Dream mall and take my son to Nickelodeon amusement park for his 2nd bday booked a hotel that accepted dogs but could not accept my dog barking and he barked when he was alone he had a bit of separation anxiety. Which I doubt it was as bad as the hotel made it but thanks god for Hsin & Paul! They were able to take pepperoni on last minute.”
“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“Our puppy had a great time with Kira and her family! She sent us updates with photos every day and it really put us at ease knowing she was well taken care of while we were away. ? Would definitely leave our puppy with Kira again!”
“Hilarious and frequent updates with pictures and video daily, so we didn’t have to worry for a moment that June was anything other than jubilantly happy in Christina’s care. Tons of wonderful walks (even in nasty summer heat), frozen spinach treats, snuggles on the couch — June’s week with Christina was a vacation a human would envy. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful, loving person to care for June,”
“Rochelle is super reliable and took really good care of my kitties. Gave me updates on them daily basis. Highly recommend her because I would hire her again!”
“Christina was excellent! Her attention to detail is unmatched and she made the process so easy for us. We paid a little extra for pick up and drop off and that was a lifesaver! She sent lots of pictures and I knew my dog was in good hands. Would hands down recommend her and I will always check with her first if I ever need a pet sitter again.”
“Rue had such a great time with Grace! Everything went smooth and Rue felt right at home. Got plenty of cute updates while we were away, would absolutely leave her with Grace again!”
“Skyler did a great job and proved a very flexible care provider. We needed to extend our dog’s time with her by a night at the last minute and she was a-ok with that (thank you). Our 15 year old dog unfortunately wound up having some accidents away from home (embarrassing) but she adjusted our suggested bathroom schedule to hourly and supported his needs (thank you). Much appreciation Skyler!”
“Michael was awesome with T and great with communicating with me. Even meeting up at dog park before the reservation to make sure T was good for him and his space. Moreover, immensely accommodating amongst some travel issues. Highly reccomned”
“Chloe had a good time with Cecilia eventhough she gave her & her family a hard time in the beginning. Cecilia keep us updated with messages, pics and videos of Chloe while we were in Europe. Thank you for being patient with Chloe and for giving her love and care while we were away. Chloe will definitely stay with her again the next time we go out of the country. Thanks again Cecilia!”
“Summer was amazing! Very tentative, detail oriented dog sitter, and Kylo already misses her. She was great at providing updates and taking good care over an extended stay!! Summer will be a go-to dogsitter and adopted aunt of Kylo’s!”
“Taylor was AMAZING! It was my first time leaving my baby so I was super anxious especially because he is primarily pee pad trained , a ball of energy and only eats cooked food ! She was SUPER understanding and flexible. Taylor kept me updated and my baby loves her ! He usually has separation anxiety but he did so well with her ! Can’t wait to book her again 10/10! Teddy and I appreciate Taylor a TON”

Lifu is amazing! She took great care of our 11 month old golden retriever while we were out of the country for two weeks. She followed his routine instructions and also sent us multiple pictures and videos while he was in her care. It was our first time leaving our pup with a sitter and we are so grateful we found someone like Lifu to take care of him. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. Our pup also enjoyed staying with her, to the extent that he was sad to leave when we went to pick him up.
Brenda an her family was perfect in every way . She cared and provided love to Fredum like it was her dog . She followed all my instructions and brought him some toys to build trust . I tipped her directly . I didn’t know that Rover was an option. I will use Brenda every-time. She is family now . Brenda thank you 😊
We left Coco with Sri for 10 days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sri was incredibly communicative and responsive, sending daily photo and video updates that gave us so much peace of mind. They were very patient and understanding during Coco’s transition into a new home and handled all the adjustments with care. Coco was clearly very well taken care of—she absolutely loved them and even bonded with the cats! If we travel again, they will be our first choice for boarding. Highly recommend!
I recently had Omar take care of my dog, Oreo, while I was traveling, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Omar was professional, kind, and attentive. He took the time to learn Oreo’s routine, preferences, and quirks, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Omar provided regular updates and photos, which made it clear that Oreo was in great hands and having a wonderful time. When I came home, Oreo was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious that Omar genuinely loves animals and treats them like his own. I highly recommend Omar to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring pet sitter. Oreo and I are both so grateful — we’ll definitely be booking with him again! 🐶💛
We utilized the services of Miss Imani boarding for a week, and she diligently monitored all aspects of our furry companions’ well-being. She provided regular updates, photographs, and videos, demonstrating a genuine concern for their care. Given that we have six puppies, with four of them being six weeks old, Miss Imani exceeded our expectations. We express our sincere gratitude for her exceptional service.
I’m always weary of leaving my dogs but Raymar and Genesis made it so easy, and provided constant reassurance that my dogs were doing well during my trip. They provided pictures ant least twice daily, and were also able to step in and take extra care of my pup with allergies. I’m happy to say that I’ve found new sitters I can confide in. Will def rebook with them!
