“Our pup Ranger had a great stay with Mila! He had a blast going on adventures and hanging out with Mila in her yard. We felt like he was in great hands while we were away and will definitely ask Mila to watch Ranger again when we head out of town. Thanks Mila!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Sylvie and her family were so wonderful! She provided great communication, sharing walks and snuggles through daily photos with us. Our two pups were having the best time! Sylvie and her family treated our dogs like family, highly recommend and would book again! Thank you Sylvie!”
“Bianca is fantastic! We have a senior dog and Bianca goes above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. After our dog’s first stay with her, we immediately booked our next one with her because of how great she is. Our dog is clearly so much happier staying with Bianca than when we used to take her to the kennel. Highly recommend!”
“We can’t sing her praises enough! Emily was so sweet and welcoming to our Javier. He’s a new rescue for us and she is his first sitter. She sent so many updates showing him making himself right at home. When we picked him up she ran one of his toys out to us and he ran to her. THAT’S how at home he was there. She’s fantastic!”
“Annelies & Marcos are amazing! You'd be very lucky to have your pup stay with them. Annelies was easy to coordinate with, for connecting on details and drop off. They understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog behind on vacation, and were so communicative and shared lots of photos, so I felt well updated and could relax, knowing everything was going well. They ensured my pup had lots of outdoor time, walks and even a day at the beach, followed by a bath! If they are available, run, don't walk to book with them. You will be relieved and your dog will be well taken care of and loved like their own.”
About: I have taking of dogs for about to years of all kind. I love them. Neighbors have relied on me to take of there dogs. Hi, I work part time and I go to school over the weekdays.so, I’m free to take care of your dogs over the weekend, and during school breaks. I I live by myself in my apartment of a bedroom and a living room and there is a patio that I could walk with your dog or take him for a walk or just play with him. I really love dogs and I really want to have one, but I can’t at the moment because I don’t make that much money to have one.
“Mr. & Mrs B are very friendly pretty sitters. While we dropped off our dog for his first visit he pooped on throw rug in their house. When i rushed back inside with a plastic bag, Mrs B had already taken care of it and was chatting with my husband. While we were gone they sent us reasuring pictures of our happy dog with their chihuahua. They gave our dog meals,snacks & 3 medications at 3 times during the day. When it was time to pick up our dog he was all packed and ready before we got there. Remy acted like he was coming home from a vacation. I will not hesatate to contact them again for dog care. Top notch care for our fur baby.”
“Kelly Ann was great with our dog Digby. She went above and beyond to give him great care and love. He's an older diabetic dog and she gave him 2 insulin shots a day and made sure he had plenty of water to drink. She took him on walks and gave him a lot of cuddles. I'd highly recommend Kelly Ann.”
“We had a great experience with Dustin, and his dog Leo. He was able to accommodate a last minute trip, drop off and pick up was super easy, tons of videos and pictures. The dog got along great. Would recommend for dog boarding”
“This is our second time sitting with Yvette and she and her husband did great again. They provided plenty of walks and updates on our dog and we are very grateful for the work that they did”
“Thank you for a great weekend Ashely. Your updates were detailed and the pictures and video were greatly appreciated. It really helped us enjoy our weekend knowing Bailey was in such great hands.”
“Camila was a great companion for our dog. She made our dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. She kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay, sent photos and videos, and timely responded to us. We will definitely book with Camila again.”
“Our bulldog Roxy stayed with Isabel for 2 nights and spent the days with a fabulous crew of new dog friends - walking, playing and exploring. We won’t hesitate to go to Isabel again for dog sitting or walking!”
“Excellent sitter! Melissa was kind and warm and provided frequent updates. Completely trusted her with my dog and was happy my dog was having fun w her Archie. Highly recommend! Would use again. Thanks so much ❤️”
“We highly recommend Madeline and Alex. They were very responsible, provided a ton of ongoing updates, and were very easy to work with. Our dog had a great time with their kids and in general. We will go back to them again.”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and even started my own dog walking business when I was ten. I love animals … maybe even more than people. 😂 I’d be honored to care for your cats and dogs while you’re away. I would love to help you care for your pets when my children are at school…and if it’s okay for them to visit with your sweet dogs and cats as well I have TONS of flexibility all day. I am very careful with pets. They are part of the family. Please tell me what you feel comfortable with and I will follow the instructions to the last detail. I have so much love to give these animals and am hoping to get to spend my time with helping them not miss you too much while you’re away.

Deborah took such good care of our senior pup. He has a lot of specific needs and she took them on without any issues. It's challenging to find a sitter willing to do that. He did great in her care and we will be absolutely booking with her again the next time we go out of town.
Our little Kodi is a rescue dog who can be anxious in new situations, needing lots of reassurance and a tender-hearted caregiver, which is exactly who Ashley is. She made a safe haven for our anxious pup and he was in heaven, being pampered with complete and utter attention at all times. She also was in constant touch with us, supplying multiple updates and photos every day during the boarding, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We cannot recommend Ashley enough, and we are thrilled to have found her for our little Kodi and are honored to recommend her pet sitting services!
Stephanie did an amazing job taking care of our little guy, George. She made sure he was eating on time and walked him as needed. He came home with a few more pounds, which is excellent, since is a picky little eater, so that was magical and excellent! We highly recommend her services, and we will be back for more!
Andrew took incredible care of Luna! Throughout my multi day trip he made sure I felt reassured, sending photos, videos of Luna (active GSP) on tons of hikes and walks. He even went out of his way on July 4th to make sure she wasn’t frightened by any fireworks, gave her medicine, and I really couldn’t have asked for more. She came back so tired and happy I’m very grateful.
Jennifer was an amazing sitter! She communicated with us throughout Murphy’s stay and went above and beyond. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and made sure he was well looked after. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will absolutely be booking with Jennifer again in the future!
