“Rachel did an awesome job with my boys, Parker and Ranger. She had them for a week. She sent me updates and pictures everyday. Went above and beyond when they went on a food strike. We will definitely be returning customers! Thank you Rachel”


“Sheri and her husband did a wonderful job with my Omar. They kept him well walked and tired by the end of each day. He usually doesn't eat while away from me, but with them he ate well. Having them home all day was an added bonus, he is very much a people loving dog and wants to be near someone at all times. They sent a daily picture, as well as a short description of his day. I will not hesitate to take him back for another stay if need be.”


“This is the second time Fiorella has taken care of my cat and she does a great job! My cat can sometimes be a bit difficult, but she handled it with ease. Cannot recommend her enough!”


“Emily took expert care of our two dogs and were able to accommodate last minute for us due to a family emergency. Emily was super communicative and sent lots of update photos frequently. We were never worried about our dogs being in her care and her pup Olive was a great companion that made sure our dogs had a fun playmate to tire them out! I couldn’t have been happier with Emily and Kenneth boarding our dogs, 100% would recommend to a friend.”


“Angela and her family were amazing with our sweet pup! Not only did she take wonderful care of him, but he had a great time and it felt like they actually enjoyed having him. Finn clearly felt relaxed and safe in their home and under their care, which isn’t always the case. Angela also did some leash training with him and taught him how to use their doggie door! It was a fantastic experience and I will re-book with Angela anytime I have a need for Finn. I couldn’t be happier with Angela and her sweet family! Thank you, Angela!”


“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”


“Tera was amazing! She treated my dog like her own. She took her on lots of walks and sent me tons of updates and photos. She has a lot of space in her home and yard and she even took her on a little adventure down to the river to watch the sea otters. She was on top of her medication regime and diet. She was also very flexible with pick up and drop off times and worked with me. My dog is all tuckered out now!! Would love to book with her again”


“We couldn’t ask for better care for Coco while we are gone! From the many videos to excellent communication - we know Coco is in great hands ❤️❤️❤️ We highly recommend Sheri and Bill❤️❤️”


“Britt did a great job taking care of Mocha! He had some special needs that she attended to with ease and it reflected her experience. He came home healthy, happy and rested.”


“As always, Fabricia is simply the best sitter for Tori my mother and I have ever had the good fortune to know. We know that Tori wil be loved, pampered and treated like one of her own. Aunt Fabricia is a remarkable person and a loving and dedicated friend to both animals and her fellow man. We are lucky to have her as a friend to Tori and us. Actually, more like family! We always feel comfortable with entrusting Fabricia to take the greatest of care of our lil girl whenever we travel. There is always great communication and multiple pics that show how at ease and at home Tori feels when at Fabricia and Blaine’s lovely home. A special shout out to her own lil dog, Romeo, who has become a great friend to Tori as well. Fabricia is THE BEST all around!!”


“We have an anxious 9yo Boston with Cushings who can be handful. Linda was amazing! Before his first sleepover, Linda met us at a location so both Mugsy & I felt reassured & safe. The anxious owner (myself) was very appreciative of her updates - texts & photos during Mugsy's first visit. When I picked him up the next day, Mugsy was calm & didn't show any stress or need to leave right away. Linda, thank you for making this process so easy & relaxing!”


“A wonderful pet sitter! Very communicative and warm. She was able to accommodate our last minute request, sent us updates and photos of our doggy while we were away, which was very reassuring, and she was flexible and understanding when our ferry delayed our pickup time by almost an hour. We would recommend her and be happy to have her care for our pup again in the future.”



“Daniele has watched our pets on two occasions now and we could not be happier with her service!! We have a very spoiled Labrador who often refuses to eat when we are gone, however with Daniele there were no issues!”


About: I have many years of experience home and pet sitting, dog walking, and dog training. I currently have one cat, indoor plants, and a garden so I will happily tend to whatever your home needs. I will treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care. I host in my home as well - it is just my husband and I. Your pet must be good with cats (I have one very chill one year old cat). I am happy to negotiate rates for multiple pets and longer stay bookings. I work remotely and have an extremely flexible schedule so I can be available at almost any time. I can house sit and pet sit overnight as well. I will always follow however you would like your pets cared for in your home. I am willing to drive them in my car to parks and trails for long walks. I can also host in my home - We do not have a fenced yard but we have 10 acres of land for leashed walks.

“Nicole is the most amazing dog sitter! My two dogs have stayed with her many times. Every time I got a bunch of cute pictures of them. They are so happy to see her and don’t even want to leave! I also appreciate Nicole being flexible with my schedule several times. She is the best dog lover and I 100% recommend her!!”


“Bridget and her hubby took great care of my pup Xena. I felt very comfortable leaving her with them and knew she was in good hands. She sent photos every day with little updates and it was nice to see my pup having a good time. We will definitely be reaching out to them next time!”

Thank you, Linda for taking such great care of Mugsy! You made us feel as though you treated him as your own which allowed us to be at peace during our vacation. We loved all the daily photos & notes! We will definitely entrust Mugsy to you again! We highly recommend!

We love Britt! Moki has stayed with her multiple times now and readily goes back. It is evident she really cares about dogs and gives them the personal care and attention that each one needs! She sent us a daily update and photo/video that was much appreciated. Thanks so much, Britt!
