“Katherine is great! She did a wonderful job caring for my dog. While my pup is a very gentle and easygoing, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Katherine was attentive, reliable, and kept me updated so I never had to worry. She even shared pictures and updates, every time my pup had a smile on her face. When I came home, my dog was relaxed and content—exactly what I had hoped for after our long trip. I really appreciate the care and professionalism Katherine showed. I will keep booking as long as she accepts!”
“They took such great care of our fur babies. They kept us updated on how they were adjusting and sent us pictures. They are very friendly, responsive and relatable!. Our girls had a great time and we had peace of mind.”
“Iman was a wonderful sitter! I usually take my dog to boarding when I go on vacation but they were all booked so this was a last minute decision I was a bit skeptical of. However Iman made me feel comfortable in choosing her, she kept me updated throughout my time a part from Bentley with lots of photos and videos. She even gave us a parting gift of some fresh wet food for him. Definitely will be rebooking in the future when services are needed. I think Bentley enjoyed himself a lot because as soon as we got home he was sleep like a baby, safe to say he had lots of fun!! Thank you again❤️”
“Ana and Byron saved the day… I had a babysitter cancel while I’m on my way to her house. I was totally distraught and glad Anna was available and has baby sit for me in the past my two frenchies love them and always happy to see them.”
“Mercedes and her family were the best caregivers I could have asked for! I had to leave my 9 week old puppy for 6 days and I felt so comfortable with the level of care she was provided. I got multiple daily updates and photos of my little Luna playing with Mercedes, her cute pup, and her children. They had all the toys, bedding, and comforts my puppy needed. I loved it and it made me feel very confident with my decision in booking, I was worried she would want to stay there forever. :-) Mercedes and her family were very kind, sweet, genuine people and I’m so grateful for them! I will 100% be booking with Mercedes again. Thank you!”
“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“We were very pleased with the care our fur baby received while staying with Michelle and her family. She reassured me that our pup would be in good hand and sent us photos to ease our nerves about leaving her. She and her husband were wonderful!”
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”
“Lynda is amazing. Asks good questions and puts forth extra effort to make sure Daisy is well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust to be direct, manage expectations and keep my girl happy and healthy while I’m away. I keep coming back to Lynda because Daisy is happiest when she’s with her.”
“My dear LGD heavens second mom and home. We’ve been with Stephanie more than 5x already and it’s amazing how my Pyrenees how’s to her and just runs to her with happy wiggly tails as soon as we drop her off. She is very much available to us and CEU thankful for that. She does makes sure heaven is taken cared, very clean and obedient . We highly recommend Stephanie and thanks so much for providing a second beautiful home to our dog everytime we’re out of the city!!🙏🙏🙏”
“I really like Jennifer she made us feel comfortable with leaving leo with & her children providing regular update made me feel at easy Jennifer also took him on very short notice which was a blessing in disguise. When I came to pick leo up I spoke with her mom & that was definitely a cherry on top.”
“What more can I say? Christine is literally the best! She sent a handful of pictures, kept me updated on my pup his entire stay in her care, & she is super sweet. We will definitely be returning ❤️”
About: I’ve grew up with family pets that were dogs from small to large.I also had/have Cats.I currently own cats and a puppy akita. I know basic grooming such as clipping nails and bathing.Cats can be tricky to bathe but not really a problem. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m pretty much always available during the week/weekend unless something comes up to where I am unavailable for services. I give my pets the basic care and needs they should receive such as monthly coat brushing,Bi weekly nail trims and rarely if really needed bathing.
“Danny was awesome! We can't thank him enough for taking care of our dog. He was also very patient with us since it was our first time using rover. He kept us updated with pictures. When we picked her up she was happy and wagging her tail with Danny we know she was well cared for.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience with Kim. She was attentive to our dog’s needs and kept us updated daily with photos and how our dog was doing. We definitely recommend her services and would use her again! Thank you Kim!”
“Liz and her family, once again took excellent care of my baby. She is comfortable and content being there, and it makes me feel comfortable knowing she's in good hands and a safe and loving environment.”
“Bridget was amazing with our dog, Miller. Miller has separation anxiety and can be a hit or miss with sitters, but he warmed up to Bridget and her family right away. Great communication and felt extremely comfortable. Would highly recommend to let your dog stay with her family and pup of her own who is both adorable and friendly.”
“Steven was an absolutely wonderful fit for our dog, Artemis! He and his pup Mabel are so sweet and we’re very accommodating and friendly. He made sure we were always updated and sent us so many great photos and videos. He also did a great job handling our dogs medication and exercise needs! We will definitely be using his services again in the future. Thank so much Steven!”

Danny was awesome. The person that was going to watch my dog for a week canceled two days before my trip and I had very little options. He was willing to do it very last minute. He provided me with lots of pictures and updates and always answered any questions I had throughout the week. I loved that he had a yard for her to play in, and she had plenty of company between him and his family so I knew she wasn’t lonely. On Christmas his family got her treats and toys and he treats them as one of his own. He helped me bring her bags in and out of the car and was very nice and courteous. Super close to home and I tend to worry a lot and I felt very comfortable leaving here there for the week. No issues at all, would definitely reach out to Danny again for my doggy boarding needs.
Jocelyn is hands down THE best pet sitter I could ask for. Jocelyn has taken care of my little pup I want to say close to 5 times now or maybe a little over and every time she is welcoming of us and always on top on communication. Sending videos and updates of lychee. Lychee gets so excited to see Jocelyn and her little pups and it shows me that lychee trusts her so much. If you haven’t worked with Jocelyn yet it’s a must Shes will take the best care for your fur baby!!!
