“We highly recommend Yu-Shu! Yu-Shu and her family took great care of our dog, Max. She communicated regularly while we were gone with pictures and videos of him. She was able to deal with his diet restrictions. He appeared to have a great time playing with her children and going for walks. We almost felt bad picking him up and taking him away from them. Haha. We will definitely be asking Yu-Shu to watch Max in the future!”
“Robert and his family did a great job of taking care of our pup. They were super communicative which made things way less stressful while we were on our trip. Will definitely be booking again :)”
“Susan is a Terrific pet sitter! She kept us updated daily with pictures and highlights. She is an experienced dog lover who we felt very comfortable with watching our aging Frenchie🐶”
“Lauren was great - she took care of our dog, Rudy, during a giant surprise snowstorm while we were at our son's wedding for a few days. She sent pictures regularly and responded quickly whenever I reached out to her. Our dog prefers to be by himself so we appreciated that she didn't have other dogs. She was really flexible on the last day when we needed to leave town to go home a day early. We will definielty use Lauren to watch Rudy again - highly recommend!”
“Saumya and Gaurav took great care of our dog Coco. They sent constant updates and pictures and very accommodating and accessible. Really appreciate all the help and we will definitely leave Coco again with them, as we now feel we have a trusted family to take care of our pet.”
“Shipra took great care of my dog Casey. She tried to understand her by asking about her detailed routine ahead of time. She genuinely cared about her and made sure she ate properly and asked questions so she was well taken care of. I received update photos and felt assured Casey was comfortable and enjoyed her stay under her care. I can't thank enough for Shipra and her lovely family for giving Casey a home away from home.”
“They were excellent sitters who clearly love dogs. They took time for a premeeting to understand my dog before accepting the book. My dog looked relaxed in their backyard and enjoyed playtime. Bokdol came back in great shape. I’ll definitely leave him with them again!”
“I cannot recommend Monisa and David enough! We boarded our dog Charlie for two weeks with them, and he was treated like family. Monisa and David were incredibly communicative, they kept in touch with us frequently, sending updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was very obvious Charlie enjoyed being with them ! He appeared happy and healthy upon our return . We will absolutely be booking with them again!”
“Svetlana took great care of my dog Louise! She sent daily updates and was very flexible with pickup and drop-off times, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely book with her again for future boarding.”
“Our dog Marley’s stay with Maya was great! Maya kept us very well informed and sent lots of pictures. Maya was very accommodating and flexible when our travel plans unexpectedly changed. We will happily leave Marley in Maya’s care again in the future. 😊🐾”
“Kimberly was a great sitter for my dog, Friday. I was worried about how anxious my dog would get during Halloween, but she made sure he was comfortable and in a quiet space. I really appreciate her updates and the videos of our dogs playing together. Thanks, Kimberly!”
“Romeo had a good time with Clara. She ensured she sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated. He wasnt' having his food so she made sure that she fed him food that she fed her dog. Clara also made sure Romeo received his own personal time when he did not want to play with her dog. Thank you Clara”
“Lili and Matt were amazing, and my pet Chiku had wonderful time. They provided daily updates and made a wonderful video “a day in Chiku’s life” which was heartwarming. Will surely recommend them and will be returning to host Chiku again in future.”
About: Since the time I had my pet for the last 4 years, I can’t disagree to say I secretly love him more than my daughter😁. They are super cute, notorious, kind with those forgiving eyes. It would be fun to have your fur babies playing in my backyard and staying in our house. My daughter loves dogs, my pet is calm but friendly upon his mood and as a team, my family would love to host your fur babies. I am a software engineer by profession and working remotely. I am full time available at home, when the care is needed for the dogs. I have a playpen along with a large dog crate, if separation is needed. Backyard is fenced and is super secure. My daughter and I will walk the dogs.
“Keelin was great! She sent me daily updates and pictures of Frankenstein. He seemed very happy with her and her son. Frankenstien’s medications and other needs were taking care of by Keelin with no issues. I will definitely be reaching out for her services in the future and recommend her to others.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of dog walking and sitting experience. I’ve worked for a professional dog-walking company, leading both neighborhood walks and adventurous hikes. I’ve also cared for my own dog with epilepsy, giving medication three times a day and providing gentle, patient care. We’re a warm, loving little family who adore all kinds of animals. I live with my husband and our 4-year-old son, who was born into a home with a cat and dog and has grown up loving animals and nature. At home, we don’t currently have a dog or cat, just fishes and a frog 🐠🐸. After losing our beloved dog, we haven’t been ready to adopt another one, which means your pup will get all the love and attention they deserve while staying with us! I can care for your dog at your home or mine, in any weather, for walks, hikes, playtime, or full-time sitting. I can also provide care for cats while you’re away. Your furry friends will be treated with love, patience, and plenty of attention — maybe even spoiled just a little. 😉 I currently work only 2–3 hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of free time to care for your little one. I’m flexible on weekends as well, which means I can easily adjust my schedule for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. Your furry baby will always get my full attention and care. I completely understand how it feels to miss your little one when you’re away — I’ve been there too. That’s why I’ll keep you updated with frequent photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“She is amazing host and took care of Charlie like he stays at home. Lots of play walking and taking care of my dog like a family. Lots of thanks for taking excellent care of my dog and giving personal extra care of him. It’s like a second home for my dog. Thanks.”
“We had a great experience at Rashmi’s place. We kept our dog for two nights, she was very nice and prompt! We got pictures of our dog everyday. My dog was very happy and we will highly recommend Rashmi for daycare or boarding!”
“Rachel was fantastic! She sent us photos and progress report to keep us informed. Biscuit enjoyed spending time with Daisy and Rachel’s family. She was also very flexible with the scheduling changes that we had to ask for at the last minute. Highly recommended!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience boarding our Prince with Jita and her family. From the very beginning, Jita was warm, professional, and incredibly communicative. She kept us updated with frequent messages, photos, and videos every morning, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our Prince was treated like a member of their family. Jita truly focuses on one client at a time (besides her own pup, Thunder), which made a huge difference. Our furbaby got along beautifully with Thunder—there was plenty of playtime, interaction, and supervision. We could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and we came back to a relaxed and content pup. Jita and her husband’s love for animals shows in everything they do, and their attention to detail and genuine care set them apart. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jita again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable dog sitter.”

Vita is such a great dog sitter. I leave my dog to her for a week, she sent me daily updates with pictures and she is very friendly with dogs🐕 My travel plans changes and Vita is very flexible and helpful to accommodate my plan. I highly recommend Vita to anyone🌺
April is definitely is a top notch dog sitting provider. Even though this was the first time using her service, I felt extremely comfortable from the meet and greet to when I picked up my dog, Hilo. She was so accommodating to my schedule, and provided the best care possible in my absence. She fulfilled all my directions and did the things she listed on her profile. So there was no miscommunication. What caught my eye about her profile when going through them on Rover were the camera portraits of the dog with a cute sign next to them. She did that too, with Hilo! When you are somebody, like me, who always thinks about your dog, it's nice that she sent pictures/videos throughout the day. Something like that, goes a long way. Thanks again April, and I'm looking forward to the next time using her as her as Hilo's dog sitter.
It was the first time our Luna ( 11yr old multi-poo) was able to stay with Zhengfang. We dropped her off Friday and picked her up following Monday within 1minute! In and out. No checkout lines waiting etc. I was sent pictures and videos on how she was doing and we felt comfortable on how she was treated. I believe this is a much better option than petsmart or others we’ve tried. The cost, service, cleanliness, convenience, timeliness, TLC, and no attitude, surpasses all others. Thank you Zhengfang and we’ll contact you the next time Luna needs dog sitting!
Zcarina took wonderful care of our senior pup. She was extremely flexible, and was willing to work with our unconventional schedule (due to my mom having a back injury). She showed up on time every day and I felt 100% peace of mind while I was traveling. I would not hesitate to book again with Zcarina because I trust her whole heartedly. Thanks Zcarina!
Alyse and her family were awesome with Gabbar! She was super responsive and accommodating the whole time, which made everything so easy. Gabbar honestly had the best time and looked like he was having a blast. I loved getting the photos and videos throughout his stay, too; it was so nice to see him happy. Will definitely be booking with her again! Thanks so much, Alyse!
Reema was AMAZING!!! If you want your prince or princess to be treated like the royalty they are, she’s your gal! Super responsive, wonderful home, yard, and care. Our guy spent two days in doggy day care with her while we were in town for a graduation and he was happy to see her, tail wags and all when we went back for day two. Highly recommend and she will be our go to when we’re back in the area.
Ping let us know what and how Ronin was doing. Her attention to the details (i.e. our notes about Ronin) and her updates on Ronin showed Ronin has been taken care of and made us feel at ease to leave Ronin under her care. Ronin came home happy and also tired from walking around the neighborhood. Hence, Ping earned a five-star for her service!
Uma was very accommodating with a last-minute change, which I truly appreciated. She is friendly, communicates well, and keeps her home nice and cozy. The backyard is spacious and perfect for pets to move around and play. My pet felt comfortable and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her!
Ozge and her family took such amazing care of Ella and truly treated her like their own. I received multiple detailed updates each day with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Ella adjusted quickly thanks to Ozge’s genuine attentiveness. She also went above and beyond by administering both oral and topical medications, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Ella felt comfortable, content, and well cared for the entire time. Thank you for taking such great care of my girl 🤍
Anu was amazing with our 10 month puppy Guduchi. She is wonderful, very patient and kept us posted through the day. She took care of him with a lot of love. Our puppy also seemed to enjoy the time with Anu’s dog. She has a nice spacious home for the puppies to move around and play. Thank you Anu and we would love to have Anu as a sitter in the future.
Mary was absolutely wonderful! My dog usually gets pretty stressed when I’m away, but she connected with Mary right away and was happy and relaxed the whole time. It meant so much to know my dog was in such kind and capable hands. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
