“I am so happy with the care and attention that Ashley showed my sweet boy. This was my first time using anybody outside of family to dog sit. I have a very anxious boy and I’m an even more anxious dog mom, but she made me feel very comfortable and my boy settled with her quickly. I will definitely use Ashley for any of my future dog sitting needs!”
10. Lois V.
“Lois was wonderful with Dot! Lois gave Dot the time of her life with lots of walks, excursions, and time playing outside. We also appreciated her last-minute flexibility with booking and pickup and her warm and welcoming nature during the meet-and-greet. We received such great updates, and the pup was nice and tired when we got home! We will definitely book again soon :)”

“Great! Autumn took amazing care of my babies and kept me updated daily with photos and texts.

I would use Autumn’s sitting services again!”
15. Allan N.
“Allan has watched my family cats numerous times. He’s always punctual and responsible. He has even gone the extra step in cleaning up after them (they’re know to eat their food way too quickly). My cats are my fur babies and I know he treats them the same as his own!”

“My dog is needy and spoiled. He is set in his ways and expects lots of attention and treats. To put it simply- he is a handful! I could tell by our meet and greet that Emily was a good fit. She kept us updated and sent pics which helped ease our anxiety. I would definitely use her again and recommend her services to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
18. Mezz M.
“She was so great. We had a last minute issue on my trip. She took my little girl in last minute. My dog is training to be a service dog so we don’t spend a ton of time apartShe made me feel comfortable leaving my dog. And she worked her magic and made Indy comfortable and settled in just fine. My dog came back just as happy and healthy as when I left her. Big thanks to her and her family!”

“Amazing first experience with Rover & Lisa! Could not be happier! Needed to leave our 8 month old puppy for the first time for a long weekend trip & Lisa was the PERFECT solution! Hated leaving him, but knew he was getting amazing care the whole time we were gone! Will definitely be a repeat customer!”
