“Mary is so great! Sophie has a wonderful time every time we book with her and leaves a very happy dog. We will certainly book with her again.”


“Megan is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my pup while I was away, and I could tell he was happy and comfortable the whole time. She kept me updated with pictures and little check-ins, which made me feel so at ease. It’s clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. I’ll definitely be booking with her again”


“They made me feel super comfortable when dropping off my cat with how sweetly they treated him. They also have many cats who they take care of very well so I knew my baby would be taken care of. My cat is quite nervous but they were sure to cater towards his needs! They even helped me get him in his kennel for the ride home. 100% would use them again!”


“Hannah was absolutely amazing! We felt completely at ease leaving our Remy girl in her care. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which really put our minds at rest. Remy had such a great time and is already looking forward to her next stay to play with her new buddy, Louie!”


“Katie is the absolute best! She was Dolly's foster mom and her dog Eva is super sweet. Dolly always comes home happy and tired. She truly treats her like she's one of her own.”


“Ben did a great job watching my Great Pyrenees for almost two weeks. I was traveling out of the country and it was so nice to know Sugar was safe and in good hands. I had no concerns whatsoever, and my dog (who can be challenging) really likes Ben. Highly recommend him as a sitter!”


“Reba is the absolute best! We are so happy to have found her. Our dog couldn’t be happier or better cared for, and we’ve found a wonderful new friend and neighbor! Thank you, Reba!”


“This was Darwin’s second but definitely not last visit to Adolfo! Darwin loves being with Adolfo, I think he is a dog whisperer! Adolfo sends adorable photos daily so I know Darwin is doing well, and the “pack” of dogs is great company for Darwin! 10/10 would recommend Adolfo!”


“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Shih Tzu, Miki, to the exceptional care of Mandi. From start to finish, Mandi's genuine love for animals made me feel immediately at ease. Mandi's dedication to providing the best possible care for pets is truly commendable. I was particularly impressed by the ramp she built, allowing dogs to climb into her bed. This thoughtful addition showcases her commitment to accommodating furry friends and ensuring their utmost comfort. Mandi also introduced Miki to her own adorable dog, Odie. The chemistry between them was incredible! Watching Miki and Odie play and bond was so adorable. Mandi's took the time to understand Miki's unique needs, ensuring that she received personalized care and attention. I felt at ease knowing that Mandi was looking after Miki, and it allowed me to fully enjoy my time away. I am thrilled to have found such an exceptional pet sitter, and I can confidently say that I will be using Mandi's services again in the future. Her passion for animals shines through in everything she does, and it is evident that she treats each pet as if they were her own. If you're in need of a pet sitter who goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Mandi. She is a true gem, and I am grateful for the peace of mind she provided during my absence. Thank you, Mandi, for your outstanding care and dedication to Miki. You have earned my highest recommendation, and I wish you continued success in your pet-sitting endeavors.”


“Jennifer was great! She took great care of our pup and even helped us out when we missed our flight. Would highly recommend and will be using her again.”


“Sarah was AMAZING!! Cannot say enough about how wonderful our dog's week long stay was with Sarah and her family! She sent pictures to let us know our dog was doing well and was super flexible with pick up and drop off. Felt so good to know our pup was being as well cared for as she is at home - maybe even better ;) 10/10 recommend Sarah!”


“If I could give more stars I would Damica accommodated me last min due to flight delays and always makes sure my doggies is taken care of”


“Amelia was great with our two dogs Lily and Sophie. She came to our rescue on a short notice and was very responsive to our messages. We could tell she loved dogs from the moment we met her. We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with her and appreciated frequent updates with pictures. We highly recommend Amelia and will definitely re-book in the future.”



“I left my pup Julie with Judith for an extended stay and I couldn’t be more satisfied! I can tell that Julie really felt comfortable and loved during her stay! 💕”


“Id never boarded my puppy before but Amy made her feel right at home! Excellent communication and lots of photos while we were away and missing our baby. Truly a great experience that exceeded my expectations and took away any anxiety about leaving her with someone new. 1000% would book a stay at Amy's place again!”


“Walter had such a fun weekend playing with his buddies! Jen took great care of him, sent cute videos and was great with communication. We’ll definitely be back!”



“From the moment I met Ruthie it was clear that she is my kind of person; a dog lover! We did a meet and greet prior to my drop-off date, making it evident that Ruthie is a responsible pooch-caregiver. Throughout my dog's stay with Ruthie I received photos and text messages and although I was confident that my dachshund was in good hands it was nice to receive proof. My dog told me in his language that he was happy I came to pick him up but also that he had a great little vacation. I highly recommend Ruthie!”


About: I have over 30 years experience with animals of all ages and temperaments as a pet mom! I have years of experience as a foster parent with Stray Rescue and Home2home. I have experience with nervous pets as my foster fail is a bit nervous. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat in my home and they are used to visitors. I would enjoy making sure that your pet gets all the love they need when you can’t be with them. I will make sure that they are safe and happy until you come home. Thank you for considering me. I am currently work from home 2-3 days a week and have some availability on weekends too. I would love to have your pet join mine for a play date, overnight, or day visit. I have a large fenced yard and can crate if you desire. My 2 dogs enjoy being out while I keep an eye on them from my porch.


“Tara did a great job watching our pug Mia, keeping us updated and informed on the status of our dog. She was very diligent in communication and shared daily photos. Her house was exceptionally clean and it was evident our dog was at peace being at her place. There were other dogs present in the house, but it seemed to make for a more social experience for our dog.”


“Courtney was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and I def will be using Courtney in the future. She sent daily pics of my doggo and he looked so happy :) my boy can be misunderstood and high energy at some times but she made my sweet boy at home. Courtney was also ver accommodating and understanding when I unfortunately was unable to make pick up. Wonderful experience overall!!!”
