“Amber was amazing with our fur babies. This was our first time ever leaving our dogs with anyone, so we were super nervous. She made us feel so comfortable by assuring us they would be in good hands. For every day they were away from us, she sent us photos and made sure to let us know about their day. Our pups had such a good time. You can tell in the photos, they felt right at home.”



“If I could give Laura a 10 I would. This was Scouts first time away from home and I was nervous. My mind was put to rest when I dropped Scout off, she was so comfortable with Laura and the family dog Winter. Laura sent pictures of Scout which made me able to relax on my trip. I highly received Laura to care for your dog. I will be booking a stay for Scout again for sure.”


“Our mini poodle, Stella, stayed with Karter and his family for a week, while we were on vacation. Karter, his fiancé, his kids and three dogs made Stella feel right at home. She even became best buddies with one of the dogs! Stella can be anxious, so I was nervous about leaving her with a rover, however Karter proved to be a fabulous sitter! His family was great, home, warm and inviting, so Stella ended up having a wonderful stay. He made sure to give us updates along with cute photos of her chilling out with the family, during her stay. We enjoyed meeting Karter and his family. They took such great care of our Stella! We’ll be sure to use Karter again 👍🏻👍🏻”


“Tara is great! She is very kind and easy to communicate with. My dog is a clingy and nervous chihuahua, and he felt very comfortable with Tara. She did a great job making him feel relaxed while sharing pictures with me while I was away. I appreciate her dedication and patience for making my dog, and myself, feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while I was out of town. Thank you Tara!”


“10/10 recommend!! Kerri went above and beyond taking care of Ro. Throughout Ro’s stay she sent many pictures and kept us up to date with how Ro was doing. I Will definitely be use Kerri as a sitter in the future.”



“Kaitlyn welcomed my dog as her own in her home. I received pictures and updates throughout the stay so I never had to worry. I appreciated how flexible Kaitlyn was with pickup and drop off times. Would recommend!”


“Jamie was wonderful with our dog Paco. She kept us informed daily with texts and photos. I was worried about him since he does have separation anxiety but Jamie but my mind at ease. When we picked him up I could tell he was comfortable with her. Would definitely book again if needed in the future.”


“Lucy and family were wonderful pet sitters for our golden doodle, Huey. They sent many updates and photos, which helped us feel secure that Huey was being well taken care of. Huey came home from his stay with them happy and content, not anxious and wound up like he does when he stays in a kennel. We will definitely send Huey back to them in the future. Thanks, Lucy!”


“I am new to the app and i was a little nervous at first however Devorah was lovely ! She was also very understanding when i was having some car trouble last minute when it was time to drop my fur baby off ; she came to pick him up with no problem and was very welcoming from the beginning. She kept me updated with pictures & kept in contact with me the whole time . When i arrived to pick my baby up my fiancé and i were greeted by her husband he came to introduce himself & he was great as well . He let us know he took the initiative to kind of train my pup as he is still young and does need a little more guidance & i really appreciated that. We will definitely be booking with them again, my baby is the only baby at home to know he had a great time with her dogs as well i can say he now has some new friends for the near future . I just want to say Thank you so much for everything !”


About: I have been caring for dogs since as long as I could remember! As a child my family had 4-6 dogs at all times! Lots of experience with Small & Medium stature pets. My husband & I also have a 10 year old, 45lb, Mini Goldendoodle who is sweet as pie & who we adore! I am able to take your dog to the park & for walks, play with them at my home & take on frequent potty breaks since I am always home watching them. I have lots of toys here for them to play with & treats (if allowed by owner). I can administer the required medicine for your dog as well. Experience in giving pills and giving insulin shots to diabetic pups! I’d love to watch your fur baby! I have two young children ages 5 and 2. Dogs must be able to get along with children. I am a stay at home mom to two young kids and I am available during the day while they are in school or even before and after school drop off! As long as they are well behaved I allow dogs on furniture and they would receive lots of love and attention here! We love animals!

“Rebecca and Mark were just wonderful! Great first time experience for me and Trudie! They were great about checking on the specific details of her care and routine and kept on touch. I would highly recommend them !”


“Truly the best, had a sitter cancel on me last minute and she was willing to help me out. She took such good care of my great dane archie and sent me updates every hour or so while he was there. her pup is also amazing and played very nice with mine. i will definitely be contacting her again she is fantastic. Very personable and caring to the animals and furry parents who are worried to sick to leave their pets”


About: I have had experience with many breeds of dogs from puppies to adults. I currently have a 8 month old female German shepherd who is trained for the most part.. I’m currently working full time but my schedule depends on the day and week. I am available a lot more during the summer as I use more time off. I currently don't have a yard but I walk my dog on and off leash 4-5 times a day or more if she tells me she needs to go out.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I absolutely love animals. I hope to one day open my own shelter to keep dogs off the streets & give them all a second chance at life. I currently have a 3 year old Keeshond male (neutered) who i have raised since a puppy. I have trained him myself & am currently studying different ways of training dogs. I also have experience with senior dogs. I watch a 15 year old husky regularly. I currently work in a restaurant so i go into work later in the day. my boyfriend & i work opposite days so your fur baby will never be alone if you are boarding with me. i do not accept boarding on days i cannot give your pet my full attention. my schedule for walking & drop in visits is very flexible. i also understand that life happens so any last minute cancellations are 100% okay! As previously stated i have a 7 year old pup to keep your babies company! he loves people & animals! we go for walks around the neighborhood & often go to the dog park. This can absolutely be an option for your dog as well as long as they are up to date & do well with others! in my home i also have a cat & a chinchilla. my cat is very easy going & my chinchilla will always be in the cage while your pet is in my home.

About: I have experience with animals, I own two dogs, I take car of my family pets when on vacation, I have watched my friends pets I am currently attending school online, I am looking for a part time job to make extra money for me and to keep more busy I care for my clients pets like if they were my own pet, I feed, walk, and playing with the pets, I do whatever is necessary for them
