“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”
“Matt was awesome - from the time we did a meet and greet I was at peace leaving my precious fur baby with him .He gave us regular updates and pictures This was the first time I left her for ten days but I was very pleased with his care .I would absolutely leave khushi with him again”
“My fur-child Jetson had a great 4 day stay at Julie"s place. She kept my mind at ease by sending lots of updates and pictures while he was in her care. She also was great at making sure he stayed on his medication and letting me know exactly how she was handling his anxiety and health concerns. I was so comfortable with her care of him and will be sure to book her again in the future!”
“Excellent sitter. She was so professional and caring. She walked him she played with him. I got pictures everyday. Bruno got along with her baby. They became good buddies. I can tell Bruno miss Snoop her pet. When I have to go away again I definitely want Myrna to be the sitter. You will feel good about leaving your pet with her”
“I am thrilled to give Jeff a 5-star review for taking care of my furry baby, Happy! Jeff went above and beyond to ensure Happy's happiness and well-being. He sent regular updates, which put my mind at ease, and showed genuine care and compassion for my pet. I'm so grateful to have found Jeff and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Jeff, for giving Happy the love and attention he deserves!”
“Alexandra boarded our 14 year old super senior pug and she did really well. She used to go to a large boarding facility and when she came home she was very out of sorts and unsettled. Diamond came right back home and settled right back in so it seems that she was happy while we were gone. Alexandra was super responsive and sent daily updates. Overall it was a great experience for us and apparently for her as well :)”
“Cindy was amazing at caring for my two dogs, Loki and Tashi. Dogs have a sixth sense of humans and as soon as they entered her home they were excited and happy. Cindy sent us photos of our dogs which was an adorable touch. For once, my husband and I were relaxed and were able to enjoy our outing without worrying about our dogs. We were disappointed that our dogs were not that excited to see us when we picked them up. That meant they had a great time at Cindy's. So much so that they crashed shortly after we got home. They were exhausted from their exciting day with Cindy and her adorable daughter. We are so delighted to have found Cindy.”
“Nicole was a fantastic dog sitter! She is very communicative and has the best set up for dogs. It's very clear how much she loves and cares for the dogs in her home. Will definitely be using Nicole's services in the future.”
“Tiffany is amazing! This was the first time I boarded my Simba. I was so nervous. However, Simba was very well taken care of. Tiffany kept me updated with texts and pictures. She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”
“I am beyond thankful for the care Hillary provided my dog with this weekend. I was feeling nervious about leaving my baby somewhere new but he had a great time and I received pictures throughout his stay. I will absolutely book Hillary again and I know rocky will enjoy more sunbathing and yard chases next time! Thank you, Hillary.”
“I boarded my toy poodle Phoebe for the first time using Rover.com. She is 18 years old, deaf and nearly blind. During our meet and greet with Andrew, I could see that he genuinely cares about pets based upon the look on his face when he saw her and held her during the meet and greet. He described where he planned to keep her and I relaxed. During her 4 day stay, I received pictures and updates, and Andrew answered my questions promptly. Phoebe and I were fortunate to find Andrew. I will definitely call upon Andrew again, and highly recommend him to others.”
“Amanda was great with our pup Baxter. Contacted her on Wednesday, did a meet-and-greet on Thursday, and she watched him on Saturday. We really appreciated her flexibility and understanding. Baxter is an old dog as well and fit right in with Izzy and Sadie who were very accommodating. Would definitely recommend.”
“Kevin was incredible!! He did such a great job of watching my pup and provided regular updates the entire time. You can tell how much he loves dogs. My anxious dog felt right at home!”
“Kat was absolutely amazing with my highly reactive and mildly difficult girl! I gave her a heads up with Bindi’s behaviors and she assured me everything would would be alright. When I dropped Bindi off, Kat even let me in to see how my pup interacts with hers and her pups are absolutely wonderful with others! When I come back to Tuscon I will definitely be reaching out!”
“Ingrid did a wonderful job with my dog, Evie. She sent over photo updates and was very responsive. Evie seemed to love her stay. She came home clean and happy? I would stay with her again.”
