“Steven was wonderful with Luna. I could tell she was very loved and taken care of while she stayed with them. He asked all the right questions to let me know she should be safe and comfortable, and understood when my brain was a mess and I forgot to bring her bed and kennel. He kept me up to date every day with wonderful pictures to let me know she was doing well and happy, and responded very quickly any time I reached out. You can tell that Steven and his family genuinely care for and love your pets as if they were their own. I would highly recommend Steven to anyone who asks or need a place for their pup to stay!”


“Kristen did a fabulous job, she is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog had a great vacation in her place. She took a fantastic care of him. She regularly updated me with pictures and videos. She kept me posted frequently and that helped a lot. Thank you so much Kristen and I would love to be a repeat customer for my pet and greatly recommend her. Thanks again.”


“Bella really enjoyed herself. They were incredibly kind and they sent me many pictures and videos. It was clear from that that Bella was really having a good time. The next time I go away I would definitely use them”


“Olivia was a fantastic host to Charlie! She sent pictures each day and let us know he was having fun. Such a great property for the dogs to run around in a large fenced in area. Thank you Olivia and family!!”


“Kim was amazing! She gave willow lots of love and attention and sent us updates and pictures. She was reliable and quick to respond. Willow loved her fenced in back yard and she got taken on lots of walks and had play time. We will absolutely be coming back to Kim again in the future and can’t recommend her enough!”


“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”


“I can’t recommend Jackie highly enough. My 12 year old Maltese stayed with her for the first time and had a bit of a nervous belly. Jackie handled it graciously and with kindness despite needing to clean him up and settle him down. He came home a happy boy and I’m very appreciative. It’s clear that Jackie loves dogs and that they are well cared for when staying with her.”


“Jessica took excellent care of my furbaby while I vacationed for 11 days. She sent many pictures and videos to show how well my boy was adjusting and enjoying himself. I'm sure he enjoyed running around and getting plenty excercise in Jessica's big backyard. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


“She was amazing and took good care of papa. I was really happy with her services. So grateful to find someone who is reliable loving and caring. Definitely my number 1 sitter off this app. Thank you again.”


“Tao took great care of our pups! He was great about keeping us updated daily with photos and videos. Our pups had a fun and relaxing stay, and it looked like they got along great with Tao's dog.”


“I was very apprehensive about leaving my 3 1/2 yr old dog, Cocoa with anyone. We have only left her a few times in the past and it has always been with family. Cheryl was wonderful! She has a lot of experience with dogs and immediately made me feel at ease. I knew Cocoa would be well cared for. Much to my surprise and delight, Cocoa felt so comfortable, she made herself right at home. Cheryl provided me with lots of pictures and updates throughout Cocoa’s one week stay. I will definitely be requesting Cheryl’s services again!”


“It was my adult dogs first pet daycare. Angela communicated during the visit sending me pics of Bams day and asked pertinent questions to ensure his visit was comfortable.”


“We were on vacation for a few days. We felt secure about our dog. I felt that our dog was left in good hands with Yvette. She was really wonderful and caring towards our dog. We really appreciate her handling of our dog during our vacation.”


“Whitney and family are kind, communicative, and very accommodating. We felt very comfortable leaving Baily with them and appreciated that Whitney sent us updates and photos throughout Baily's 2-week stay! Considering we booked this stay only days before leaving on our trip (after another Rover sitter cancelled last minute!), we felt extremely lucky that Baily ended up here, where he was loved and well-looked after in our absence! I highly recommend Whitney & Michael.”


“Tanvi is super star host. We left Sailor with her for three days. He was very happy and relaxed during his stay and we received daily pic and video update everyday. Knowing your pup is happy while you are away, is a great feeling. I would definitely choose her again and recommend her to other pet parents.”


“Maureen was great! We had bad service where we were but she continued to update us throughout the day about pur baby boy. She sent pictures and videos and he was having a great time with Blue and Bruno! We were so happy he felt right at home and she help out Blue feel comfortable. We will definitely book with her again whether it’s for doggy daycare with his two new friends or boarding. Thank you again Maureen for treating our Blue like he was your own!”


“I have a 12 yr cockapoo who requires daily medication. Noria has been our overnight sitter since April 2024. She only takes one dog in addition to her own sweet Milo. Noria is incredibly kind, smart, professional, loves dogs and has a gentle/loving way in interacting with my Kobe. She has been truly a blessing to find! My family and I are assured that when we leave Kobe for an overnight with Noria that he is being cared for as if he is part of her family. Kobe can be an anxious dog and slow to warm up to people. She has a patient and playful disposition. From the first time he met her he was happy, calm and it was evident that he felt secure in her care. The medication and feeding instructions have always been followed and understood. We appreciate the photos she sends and the updates as to how he is doing. Noria is a genuine individual who has been a complete joy for our family to work with. We are so happy that she has been caring for Kobe. When we go away we know he looks forward to his time with Noria and Milo!”



“Max’s stay went great ! Lauren was nice enough to watch him thanksgiving eve- thanksgiving day. We travel to Long Island for the holiday and we can’t bring max along. We were able to enjoy the holiday knowing he was enjoying his time with Lauren! She sent text updates and pictures while he was with her. Highly recommend ! We will be calling Lauren for all our future dog sitting needs.”

I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!
