“Sujanna is an amazing person clearly cut out for the job that she does. She took amazing care of Rebel and was very communicative with Rebel’s daily activities. She sent pictures and videos detailing day’s events and best of all, Rebel was clearly so happy with her. I will not look elsewhere if I need a sitter again. Thank you so much Sujanna.”
“My dog can be a little tough, but Britany took good care of her! She and Her family made sure that my anxious pup felt comfortable! I’d be happy to have my poodle stay with her again!”
“This was the first time our 2 girls Juniper and Honey have ever stayed overnight anywhere since we rescued them 5 years ago. We felt confident having Carolina watching our girls. Prior to their stay we did a meet and greet. Carolina has a very calm demeanor, and we were very confident that the girls would be comfortable in her home. She sent us pictures and gave us updates of how they were doing, which was nice. When we picked them up they were very happy, so we'll definitely be using her services again.”
“Rhea and Michael have been amazing with our dog, Momo. They have taken care of him lovingly and were accommodating to our change in schedule. We really appreciate them so much and love to book with them.”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“Lynn and Marty did a great job taking care of our dog for 13 nights! It was our first time using Rover / Lynn and we couldn't have been more pleased. Lynn had great communication with us and was extremely timely with updates / feedback on how the stay was going. Don't hesitate to book Lynn if you are considering a sitter!”
“We had such a great experience with Nataliya and her family. They took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time, which I really appreciated. When my dog wasn’t feeling well, they were especially attentive and caring, and it honestly gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell they truly care and treated my baby like part of their family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable care.”
“The dogs had such a good time and Marisol was super responsive and sent pictures! Their yard was huge and our dogs absolutely loved it. We will try to book with them again.”
“This was our second time booking with Jillian and she was wonderful yet again! She is communicative and most importantly our dog came back well taken care of and happy 😊”
“Bayan and her family took great care of Stella. She sent many videos, pictures, and updates. I felt very comfortable and at ease knowing Stella was in great hands. Stella went on many walks and adventures and came home exhausted and content. Thanks so much Bayan for taking care of my baby.”
About: I have had dogs in my life for 20 years. My current pup had parvo and I nursed her back to health, she's now 11. I love any and all dogs and if you don't like dogs, you don't like me. I am patient, loving and kind and dogs and animals just fall in love with me. Dogs are family in my house. You can trust me and us. I <3 dogs with all my heart
“Amanda and her family were amazing with Hudson. He seemed to have a great time and we would def love use her again when we are in the NJ area. She sent updates with pictures/videos every day which was very nice. Thank you so much Amanda!!”
“Jonathan was flexible, responsive and easy to work with. He sent photos/video of our dog having lots of time outside, along with some reports on how he was doing. Our dog came home and seemed relaxed and not overly stressed.”
“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”
“This was our first experience with Desi and Marilyn, We boarded our dogs for 3 days and they received excellent care. It's clear that Desi and Marilyn are dedicated to taking care of pets and they definitely take it seriously. My dogs were well cared for and seemed to have really enjoyed their stay with Desi & Marilyn, I would recommend them for your pets and we will be back.”
“Teresa was absolutely wonderful with Max. She kept us updated regularly and sent plenty of sweet photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. This was our first time ever leaving Max with a sitter, and it wasn’t easy—he’s our sweet 17.5-year-old boy and can’t travel with us anymore. I missed him dearly, but knowing he was in such loving and capable hands made all the difference. We’re so grateful to have found Teresa!”
“Ligiane was amazing. Great communication and very kind and thoughtful. It’s clear that her and her daughter are dog lovers and took very good care of my pup. When I picked her up, she was relaxed and happy, and clearly bonded with everyone. Highly recommend!”
“We would give 10 stars if we could! Tricia had our Labrador Retriever/Catahoula Leopard mix Lenny for a little over a week and it was the first time we had ever left him anywhere. At our first meeting, it was clear that Tricia has a tremendous amount of experience and know-how when it comes to dogs, and I knew immediately that we were in great hands. She calmed our nerves and assured us that she would keep us updated while we were away. She helped our guy settle into a routine quickly and she did an extraordinary job handling his food issues (we sent pre-made table food for her to give him). While we were away, she was an excellent communicator and sent us various pictures of him during different times of the day. He looked so happy that we were afraid he wouldn't want to come home! When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, clean, and showed obvious affection towards Tricia. We are so incredibly relieved that we found her to watch Lenny if and when we need to travel without our boy. With gratitude, from Laura (Lenny's Mom).”
