“We are truly grateful for Cathy’s loving care of our baby, PJ. We love him dearly and are thrilled that we have found someone who can take care of him and love him as a member of their family. The daily photos and updates eased our worries.”
“Michiko and Cliff were great. They sent me pictures and updates every day and took great care of Henry! They were very easy to communicate with. I would definitely book with them again!”
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have always had a special love for them. I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to birds, guinea pigs, and more—so caring for them has always been a natural part of our lives. I truly love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. In my home, every pet is treated like family, with lots of love, attention, patience, playtime, and cuddles. I also keep owners updated by sending photos throughout the day, so you can see how your dog is doing and feel connected while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, comfortable, and truly at home. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, playtime, attention, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. I make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and exercise they need while staying with me. I provide a safe, clean, loving, and comfortable home where every pet is treated like part of my family. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space to play and explore. I always supervise the pets, provide a calm environment, and follow each pet’s routine and any specific instructions from their owner.
“Kourtney was very communicative and happy to take our dogs for the night with only a couple weeks of notice. Our dogs can be a handful, but she had no problem at all with them. I would recommend Kourtney to anyone looking for a Rover for an overnight stay, even if your dog(s) can be tricky!”
“Rebecca and Jeanette watched my dog over the holidays. My dog is nervous and very attached to me, and they took excellent care of her and did everything to make her feel safe and comfortable. I will absolutely be using them again!”
“Someone recently told me that they never met a Peggy who isn’t wonderful, and after leaving our dog with Peggy M. and her family for a long weekend, I completely agree! They were so kind, flexible, sent consistent pictures and updates, and our pup looked genuinely torn to leave their home when we picked her up - so much so that she said goodbye to each family member individually. I cannot recommend Peggy enough - if you are looking for a fun, family environment that will love your dog like their own while you’re away, she is your Rover.”
“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”
“Thank you Alex so much for taking care of Moab during July 4th weekend. Alex accommodated short notice boarding and very flexible with pickup/drop off time. Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!”
“Anastasia did an excellent job caring for our dog Rania. She went above and beyond the call of duty given the fact that she had an immediate family member that passed away and she still insisted that she would watch Rania. Rania was returned happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Anastasia.”
“My dog Miko seems to have enjoyed his stay at Sara's place. He came back all relaxed, complete opposite experience of leaving him in a pet hotel where he came back agitated for many days. Sara's place is perfect with a big fenced garden so he could play freely with her dog and others. I can only recommend her.”
“Jing took incredible care of our dog and kept us updated through texts and photos on how he was doing throughout his stay. Weasley seemed like he was part of the family for the weekend, and we would highly recommend her for any future dog sitting needs!”
“Julie is so wonderful!!! She was very welcoming to us and our dogs. Her calm manner is comforting to pets and pet parents. She kept us updated, so our days away were worry free. Thank you for having such expert caregivers that keep our babies both safe and happy! We highly recommend Julie and will definitely use her again.”
“Maddy was so wonderful with my dog Jester!! We got tons of pictures and videos and you could tell how happy Jester was staying there. I was assured the whole time that my dog was well taken care of. We will use her again!”
“Absolutely fabulous! Robert and his family took the best possible care of my dog, and provided lots of love and belly rubs. He sent pictures twice a day which we looked forward to. Couldn’t not have been a better experience for my dog and for us. ❤️🐕🦺❤️”
“Melissa was great with King and with me!!! She kept me updated with tons of photos, which I love, and was always extremely responsive. Would definitely book again!”
“Kristina is an absolutely exceptional dog sitter and human being. We were able to go out of the country with complete peace of mind. From the moment she met Coco, I sensed he was in loving and competent hands. She then exceeded all expectations. Tons of updates and cute pics everyday. Taking him to work on occasion, and even gifting him an adorable little polar fleece outfit. This woman is unreal—she’s an angel. We’ve already booked her for our next trip away.”
“Yi was fantastic. Had great communication and could tell she really cared for our dog. We have a very nervous high energy dog and Yi made him and us feel incredibly comfortable. Consistent pictures and our dog loved hers. Would 100% book with Yi again and recommend t anyone.”

Great guy. He really lives dogs and did an outstanding job with my dog, who had hip surgery just three weeks before. He sent daily photos or videos and updates. He truly meets each dog he boards with an individual plan, based on the each dog’s need. This was our first time with Gabe. I highly recommend him.
Sophia was amazing and went above and beyond to take care of our cat, Simon! Our litter box broke and she promptly got us a new cover. Sophia sent lots of pictures and was so easy to coordinate with. I know our kitty is missing her now that he is back home. Sophia will absolutely be our go to cat sitter!
Chelsea goes above and beyond with our Lumos. He loves staying with her and is well cared for and loved. We don't worry at all when we are on vacation and Lumos is with Chelsea. We love receiving photos of him every day. Highly recommend Chelsea (and her pup, Paisley!)
Melissa is wonderful! We liked her so much that we rebooked with her within a week of picking up our Charlie after a 3 week stay. Charlie had just been diagnosed with hip dysplasia, so we were a little reticent to leave him. Melissa was nothing short of a dog whisperer! She knew just what to do! She sent photos every day, which really put us at ease. Don’t hesitate to leave your fur baby with Melissa! She’s the best!!
