“Javier took great care of my dog. We met ahead of time so that he gets to know my dog. During the stay, he communicated with me on a daily basis. Getting updates from him really made me feel at ease for leaving my dog behind. I would recommend him to all my friends who needs a responsible dog sitter.”
“Rodger and his family were incredible. JackJack had a great time with them, very loving , lots of care , great pictures. I’m so happy I have found a wonderful sitter who cares and loves JackJack! Thank you 😊”
“It was such a pleasure meeting Natalie! She was so sweet and capable, Shayla took to her and her son Ben almost immediately. I felt confident with her right off the bat. She sent daily updates and pics, I couldn’t ask for more, really. But it was the quality of care that I noticed and my pup was returned to me a happy dog.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Eunice. She took such great care of our dog and made sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved throughout the stay. It was clear from the updates and photos that our dog was happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the kindness, attention, and genuine affection she showed. It was such a relief to know our dog was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Eunice again and highly recommend them her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”
“Excelente servicio! Cuidaron a Buddy por varios días con Natalie y Ilian. Buen trabajo y cuido realizaron son personas responsables amables y cariñosas. Comunicación constante y fotos/videos de cada día.”
“After 3 weeks with Jacqueline, we picked up Mabel better than we left her! She was very happy and healthy. Jacqueline takes the best care of dogs, and makes sure to keep parents updated the whole time. So lucky we have Jacqueline!”
“Bill is such a fantastic sitter!! If you're looking for a detail-oriented sitter that does his utmost to make your dog feel comfortable while giving your dog the best of care, please go to him! We left our elderly english bulldog, Lechon, with him for a week. Bill took great care of him. He gave Lechon filtered water, and helped him up the stairs as Lechon struggles with climbing sometimes. Our Lechon doesn't know his limits, so Bill also made sure to limit his play so he had time to breathe and not overexert himself. Bill really kept an eye on Lechon, and we're very pleased with the level of care and consideration Bill had with our elderly bulldog. I highly recommend Bill as a sitter. My family and I will definitely be returning to him in the future for our dog sitting needs. Thank you for everything Bill! Lechon looked so happy and healthy in the picture updates, and upon our arrival. It truly feels like you cared for him as if he were one of your own.”
“Best ever! From the second they met my pups they were so sweet and kind to them. She sent videos and pics and you could tell they were comfortable and loved on the whole week! I could not recommend her and her fiancée more! Will definitely be rebooking!!!!!!!”
“Jalisa was great and treated our dog like one of her own. She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures, and was flexible with changes to the pick-up/drop time. This was our first time using Rover and she absolutely eased any worries I had. I highly recommend her and our dog will definitely be back!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! The family is warm, attentive, and genuinely caring — you can tell they treat every dog as one of their own. Our dog settled in quickly and was completely at ease the entire time, with no stress or anxiety whatsoever. We also loved the regular photo updates and great communication throughout. Highly recommend and will absolutely be booking again!”
“I highly recommend Parth! He took excellent care of my dog while I was away. I appreciate his flexibility in his schedule as I had to change the pick up time of my dog due to a delayed flight. Will rebook again!”
“Jennifer was wonderful! I wouldn't definitely use her service again. She had great communication, sending lots of videos and pictures. I felt at ease while I was away”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a lifelong dog lover and a proud dog mom myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. What sets me apart is the personal attention and genuine care I provide. I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and truly at home. I’m patient with puppies and energetic dogs who need extra playtime and attention, and I’m equally happy caring for older or more relaxed dogs who prefer a quieter environment and a slower pace. I take the time to learn your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking habits, favorite activities, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to care for your fur baby the same way I would want someone to care for my own, like part of the family. I’m a real estate agent with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. I’m able to provide plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love and companionship. Since I have dogs of my own, pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while staying with me! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where they can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and playtime, as well as a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and any special needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take the time to help each pet feel comfortable and adjust at their own pace. I have two friendly dogs of my own who are used to sharing their home, but I also have the ability to keep them separate from guest dogs if needed. This allows me to accommodate dogs who may prefer their own space or need a calmer environment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while staying in my home.
“Stephanie is a wonderful sitter. She is so sweet and caring. She is very accommodating and flexible. She will truly love your pet as her own and make them feel at home! My dog Apollo had a great time with Stephanie, and it’s great to know that my dog was in good hands. I would definitely book Stephanie over and over again!”
“Stephanie is great! Our dog was there for 4-5 days and looked very relaxed, happy, and content. Stephanie gave daily updates, photos, and a detailed sheet on our dog’s activity. Would recommend, Stephanie is very caring!”
“Lauren and her family have been wonderful caretakers for my Mason! I have used her several times and have nothing but great things to say about them. I can leave for vacation and feel good knowing that my dog is loved and well taken care of.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! She stayed at their home for a full week, and it truly felt like a home away from home. It was clear from the moment I picked her up that she had been well taken care of, loved, and treated like part of the family. I really appreciated the attention, affection, and responsibility shown throughout her stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I love getting the daily pictures and videos updates. She had a great time. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! Amarilis was kind, responsible, and attentive, and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. Tyson was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave Tyson. I would definitely recommend Amarilis to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
It was our first time using Anny and she did an awesome job taking care of our little one for 2 weeks. She gave us daily updates either thru pictures, videos or short messages on how our little Sophie was doing. We love that she only takes 1 dog at a time so we are sure that she is able to give attention to our little one. Would definitely come back for future sittings…
Max stayed with Ji over the weekend of August 14 and warmed up to her very quickly. She kept me updated throughout our time out of town, which gave me great peace of mind. Ji was also very attentive to Max’s stomach issues and made sure he was well cared for and comfortable. We really appreciated the care and attention she gave him!
Raheem was great! He is very friendly and laid-back, which is a great match for our dog, Coco, who gets overexcited very easily. From the start, he was prompt with communication and information. He scheduled a meet-and-greet and shared more about his experience taking care of dogs, While we were away, he kept us posted on how Coco was doing throughout the week. We had some travel delays on our return trip and he was able to accommodate some small changes in the pick-up time at the last minute. Coco was a happy girl when we picked her up and it was clear she had a good time. We'd definitely use Raheem again!
Richard and Kate are amazing dog parents and dog sitters, I left my pup with them for a week , they took very good care of him and treated him as their own. They sent regular updates and pictures and i could enjoy my vacation without any worries. I am lucky to find them here and will consider them for my future travels too.
Erika was exceptional and really made my dog feel comfortable and cared for! She was very responsive and accommodating and even kindly bought additional food when my dog ran out. She is fantastic since she made her availability even include Christmas holiday. She was always kind, patient, and understanding. I highly recommend her service to anyone in search of a top rated pet sitter!
NASA Lived with Cristian for a week. Everything went well. She's seemed comfortable around him when I went to pick her up. Two minor concerns were inadequate photos, videos and terse updates or sometimes no updates daily. Also found matting of hair locks on her ears.
