“We were very happy with the care Sailor received at Angelica's house. Sailor loved playing with the other dogs and we were kept up-to-date about how she was doing. We knew she was well cared for.”
“Prince absolutely loves it when I bring him here while I’m away. Joanna always takes good care of my baby. Going above and beyond. Very much so appreciated. Will be rebooking again soon”
“Our daycare we normally go to had a bordatella outbreak so we couldn’t use them for the weekend we were celebrating our anniversary. We’re so glad we found Ruben! He was very quick to reply and sent plenty of pictures — which we love. Our dog also requires taking medicine which he was able to do with ease and texted a confirmation with us when he gave it to our dog. He was a great substitute and we’re hoping to have our dog stay with him again soon!”
“She was absolutely lovely. My baby seemed very happy and comfortable with her, even though it was my first time leaving him. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely book with her again if I ever need a pet sitter. I won’t look anywhere else. Thank you so much!”
“Our normal dog boarding fell through last minute and Michelle and Otavio saved teh day a few days before a big week long trip for our family! Our pups were well cared for and seemed so happy upon their return. We got regular and thorough updates on them daily which made our time away more relaxing. We could see how comfortable and at home our dogs were while in their care and would recommend!”
“John did a great job with our 125lb Bernese Mtn Dog, Georgia. From the pictures we received every day, it was clear Georgia was getting a lot of love and attention. She had a fenced in back yard and a very friendly playmate. We definitely plan to use John again!”
“They did a great job with my fur baby! The photos they sent showed her well taken care of and happy. I especially like that they were prompt and reliable especially with handoff. They had my dog and her supplies ready to go when I came for pick up which was very helpful after being away. Me and my doggo would both use them again!”
“Katherine and her family were great to Lily during her stay. The weather was definitely not in our favor during her stay but Katie didn’t shy away from getting outside still, taking her to the dog park and bathing her as necessary due to the muddy weather. She also worked through some doggy anxiety and was great with sending photos and updates. It was great to know she was in good hands.”
“Rob again is an outstanding sitter. He goes above and beyond. Plays with Nova daily and gives her so much love and care. I’m in a situation where is travel and he has taken on keeping her as I find her a new forever home.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and Kimberly made it really easy! She answered all our questions and met our dog in advance of her stay to make sure she would be comfortable. Our dog was clean and well cared for and happy upon her return. We would be glad to book with Kimberly again!”
“Baily did an outstanding job taking care of our little Greta (6 years old pug/boston terrier mix rescue). She kept us updated on Greta's stay with her and it was obvious from the updates and accompanying photos that Greta was feeling right at home and being showered with affection by Baily.”
“My dog loved Eniya and family!! She sent me pics while I was on vacation. She has a son so my Dog(Bears) had someone to play with. I felt like my dog was on vacation too. My vacation was worry free thanks to Eniya! Eniya and family are good people I could tell! I will gladly use her again😍 Big thank you Eniya!”
“Amazing sitter! Our puppy had a great time and was calm, tired and happy when we picked him up. Thank you for all the pictures and for being so flexible. Definitely coming back!”
“Diana and Scott are the absolute best! I'm usually anxious when leaving Scout behind while we're away, but they took such great care of her that I'll never be worried if she's with them. They were communicative throughout her stay and shared daily updates/photos. I've actually never seen her get comfortable with new people so quickly (she was handing out belly rubs on day 2 which is not typical for her lol). So thankful to have found them as sitters and hope to keep using them in the future!”
“Julia took such good care of our dog! She sent joyful photos and videos and I never worried that she wasn’t being taken care of. It was a wonderful vacation in part because I knew Tilly was loved while we were away.”
“Shirley is super sitter. Sent me cool slo mo vid of my pooch playing tricks. I was traveling thru and wanted to go to show in Chicago. She came to motel and picked up Bella. Highly recommend Shirley !!”
“Angel was absolutely amazing with Zeus, from taking him running with his rollerblades to buying a pool, i couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. i always get anxious to leave him especially for so many days but Angel’s daily updates, pics and videos really helped to make us both feel at ease. 10/10 would book again”
“Deijah was very quick to respond to my request to watch my baby Arlo at the last minute for the weekend while my husband and I went out of town. She was very easy to get in touch with and sent me updates and pictures frequently. Arlo clearly loved his stay because he was SO tired when he got home. Thank you!”

We are so grateful for the wonderful care Sasha received while we were away for the weekend. Jasmin and her husband were incredibly sweet, kind, and loving, and from the moment we met them, we knew Sasha was in great hands. Knowing our girl was being cared for and loved on like one of their own gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to a happy pup, and that means everything to us. We truly appreciate the kindness they showed Sasha and would gladly trust them with her again. Highly recommend!
Tim did a fantastic job watching my dog, Simba. He was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me great peace of mind. Simba was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with him. I highly recommend Tim to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Simba!
Highly Recommended Dog Sitter! I cannot recommend them highly enough! From the moment we left our dogs in their care, we felt completely at ease knowing they were being treated with so much love, attention, and compassion. They truly went above and beyond our expectations and cared for our dogs as if they were part of their own family. Throughout the stay, they provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. It was obvious from every update that our dogs were comfortable, happy, and receiving excellent care. Seeing how relaxed and content our dogs were made all the difference. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals really stood out. They paid attention to our dogs’ needs, routines, and personalities, ensuring they felt safe and loved while we were away. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about caring for pets, I wholeheartedly recommend them. We would not hesitate to book with them again and are incredibly grateful for the outstanding care they provided. Thank you for treating our dogs like family! ❤️🐾
We had a great experience with Stacy! We started with a meet and greet, and she was wonderful with our 10-year-old dog, Reggie. She was super friendly, communicated clearly throughout, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely loves dogs. Reggie especially enjoyed all the time she spent with him outside, which is one of his favorite things. We felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care and would happily recommend Stacy to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
She has been such an amazing dog sitter for my pup! She is incredibly sweet, clearly loves and cares for the dogs she watches, and always makes me feel at ease leaving my dog with her. She’s very easy to coordinate with for both drop-off and pick-up, which makes everything seamless and stress-free. I also really appreciate the daily updates and photos — it’s so nice knowing my pup is happy, loved, and well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend!
Pax had such a fun time at Karen’s house! They played a lot of frisbee and she had tons of toys for him to play with. Karen was super on top of things, very kind, and she sent us lots of pictures and updates! Pax seemed completely at home and totally at ease there. Thank you Karen!!
“Bere was very helpful and communicated with me throughout the entire process. She made everything so easy, especially since this was our first time using Rover and leaving Willow and Vixen with someone new. We felt comfortable knowing they were in great hands, and we truly appreciated her care and updates
Skipper had the best time with Katherine, Cory and the fam! She enjoyed playing with their dogs Brownie and Mocha so much she didn’t even want to come home after her stay! I received so many cute updates and pics and felt very calm knowing my baby was in great hands!
Bailey was so nice and easy to work with, and super great with our pug! She definitely went above and beyond to give him good care. Her communication is great and she was even able to take care of an unruly nail we’ve been struggling with, which shows that Bailey is truly a dog whisperer. We’ll be calling her again. Thanks Bailey!
