My dog, Ollie, just spent a week with Sandy and I cannot say enough about how great she was. I hadn’t ever left him with anyone other than family and from the first minute I met Sandy during our meet and great, she put me right at ease. She was communicative and caring and he clearly had a great time. I would (and will!) rebook her in a heartbeat!

Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.

Ali provided our dog, Arthur, excellent care. His love of dogs is very apparent the moment he stooped to greet Arthur. His dog, Hasti, is a sweet friendly dog and also welcomed our dog. We feel very fortunate to have found Ali and highly recommend him.

Summer was amazing with our dog, Abby. She provided pictures and updates regularly. Abby seemed really comfortable when we took her to meet Summer. We appreciate all of the snuggle time Abby got and will not hesitate to leave her in Summer’s care again! Thank you for everything, Summer.

Amy was awesome!! My dogs enjoyed her family so much. All the basics were met as indicated in daily pictures. But in addition my pups were showered with love and attention from the minute they arrived to the minute we left. Taz and Darby got along great with Amy’s dog Mayzie and now they have a new friend. I will definitely book with Amy again. The care she gave my pups put me at ease while on vacation!👍

Austin has excellent communication, very flexible with scheduling. Immediately setup a time prior to the appointment to have a meet and greet. Walter had an absolute fabulous time with Austin! Kept us up to date with how things were going, with videos, pictures, and messaging. Highly recommended Austin! 10/10 will book again!

Best dogsitters ever! I cannot recommend them enough. Such a warm, welcoming, and caring family with a beautiful home and the perfect place for dogs. They took amazing care of our beloved pup—treating her like part of their own family. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such loving hands. Truly grateful for the wonderful care they provided.

Always 5 Stars for Caesar and the family! Michael and the family are AMAZING! Clearly they love animals and treat them so well! Ghost is always happy to be dropped off and he's always happy to come home. To me, those are the two most important factors. In addition, Michael and the family are great communicators, quick to respond, send updates and pictures and are so fast in answering any questions. Having a safe, fun, happy, clean, and loving place to send Ghost when he can't be with me is the best feeling!

Kristen was amazing! Cooper was spoiled with hikes and play time all week. I can’t imagine leaving him with anyone else, she treated him like he was her own, and inspired us to be better dog parents! We are looking forward to using her again.

Karyn was absolutely terrific. My puppy was extremely comfortable with her. Karyn treated him as if he was hers. Sent many pictures and kept me informed about Fitzy several times a day. She has a great fenced in yard which gave my dog freedom to run. Fitzy and her dog got along well. Would highly recommend her. Can’t say enough of good things about this experience.

First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.

Katie and her family were AMAZING!! We needed a last minute sitter and they couldn’t have taken better care of our girl. We got multiple updates and lots of pictures which put us at ease. Katie’s girls were super cute with Bear and she enjoyed all of the extra pets and attention. We’d 100% recommend Katie to anyone and look forward to having her watch Bear again in the future.
