“Margarita was amazing with my Dog Ms. Charlie. I was nervous about using rover and finding the right care our older dogs needs. I truly could not have asked for a better experience. Margarita has great experience caring for dogs and helping pups with attachment challenges or anxiety feel comfortable and at home. I will definitely be using her when my family is vacationing and need to leave our pup for boarding. I would give her six stars if I could!!”


“Jesse is amazing and I feel so grateful to have found him! Our 4 year old labradoodle felt at home from the moment we walked into Jesse’s home and Jesse cared for him as if our Cody was a part of his family, with so much love and attention. Jesse was a great communicator and updated me throughout the day with messages and pictures of Cody and his activities during the day. I had such a peace of mind knowing that Cody was so well cared for while we were away. I will definitely be using Jesse again!!”


“We left our dog Whiskey with Jessica for a five day vacation stay. Jessica was outstanding! She made us feel so comfortable leaving him with her. She sent pictures everyday and he has a bud for life in butters. Jessica gave whiskey bones and play toys throughout the stay and treated him like he was her very own. We will leave him again and again with Jessica from now on because we trust her and appreciate her tremendously! Thank you so much Jessica!”


“My dog Kona had a great time with Amrit and his daughter last week. I received regular updates and photos which put me at ease while I was away. Amrit was very responsive from the start and responded quickly to coordinate a meet and greet. Although he was not available for the entire duration of my trip, he offered to watch my dog for as long as he could which I appreciated very much especially during the busy summer months. I definitely recommend Amrit (and his daughter) to watch your dog! I am hoping they are available the next time I am away. Thank you for taking such great care of Kona!! 😊”


“We had a wonderful experience with Rachel and her family. She watched our princess, Demi from June 9th - 13th and sent me pictures and text on a daily basis. She also responded to text in a timely matter. We were so happy that we booked with Rachel again for the end of June. She is very committed and recommend her for all your pet sitting needs.”


“Wonderful experience with Na! She took very good care of Emmy. She sent lots of pictures and updates through her time with Emmy. Emmy had a great time with this family.”


“My dogs had another wonderful stay with Lucas & Katherine, this time for two weeks. In fact my senior gal liked it there so much that she almost didn’t want to come back with me. I think for a pet parent that best and most positive sign that their furbabies were well cared for!!! They sent me lots of photos of my dogs snuggled under blankets or enjoying outdoor times! L & K are the best people and I feel like I can travel with so much less worry and guilt when my dogs are with them.”


“Shaun and his family take great care of our pup Skye, who always comes home happy and tired. I feel extremely confident that Skye is treated as a part of their family.”


“I had a really great experience boarding Leo at Bhavani’s home! From the moment I sent her a request for boarding, I felt completely at ease. Bhavani has a calm, nurturing energy and a true love for animals that shows in everything she does. Her home is set up perfectly for dogs—safe, clean, and full of cozy spots and open space for play. It’s such a comforting alternative to a traditional kennel. My dog settled in quickly and was treated like a part of her family the entire time. What really stood out was the personal attention Bhavani gave. She took the time to understand my dog’s routines and personality, and she kept me updated with sweet messages and photos during the stay. It meant the world to know he was not only well cared for, but also genuinely loved. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so grateful we found Bhavani and wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in her care again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a home-based, heart-centered boarding experience!”


“Megan and Nick created the most comfortable home away from home for Brady. He came home so happy and energetic. We got regular updates and pictures which was comforting to know he was doing well throughout our trip. We would for sure recommend them and book them to watch Brady again.”


“Lovely family who do this for the love of dogs more than anything. They kept his schedule as requested , Diana was extremely diligent and ensured she asked all the right questions about scooby to provide the best first experience for scooby and kept us informed about scooby throughout the stay. Their son is caring towards dogs knows how to interact with dogs. I am glad to have found them and would trust them to take care of my pet. Highly recommend Diana & Harish to anyone who is looking for genuine caretakers who can provide a second home to your pet while you are away.”


“Seureon & Dongdwan were great hosts to our dog. They took great care of him for a week and sent us frequent updates, which always puts us, dog owners at ease. They were very timely and responsive and our dog seemed very happy and content. We will definitely use them again.”


“Jessica was very proactive in her communications. We were at ease because of all the periodic communications, photos and videos that shared with us. The house was very welcoming to our little fur baby. Thanks again Jessica for taking care of Lizzie.”


“Jose and his family were wonderful and treated Louis like their own. Louis is typically shy at first but from the pics Jose sent me, it seemed like Louis was very comfortable and enjoyed time with Jose and his family. I would definitely bring Louis back to Jose for pet sitting.”

“Jenny P. Is the absolute best if you need someone to watch your precious pet. She treated our little one as if she was her owner. Photos and comments were sent to ensure our little one was having a good time. I thought our dog might not want to leave Jenny! If you are looking for the best person to stay with your dog, Jenny is the one!”


“We couldn’t have been more pleased with Yvette! Our Kirbie loves being with her and the environment she provides. Yvette sent us videos and photos with updates throughout the day. We have already booked our next session with her.”


“This is the second time our dog Charlie has stayed with Tynesha and her family. They take great care of him, give him lots of love, share photos throughout the time we are away. In addition to walks, there is a nice big fenced back yard where he can run. If you have to be away, you really could not ask for more.”


“Amazing service as always!”


“This is our first time using Jing’s service. What a pleasant surprise! She is very caring, tentative, and communicate often about what’s happening to our dog Hugo. She sent pictures and short summaries of updates on a daily basis. I would not hesitate to recommend her service to any dog owners. Thanks, Yu Pan”
