Anthony is the best sitter. Margaux was there for two weeks and Anthony sent us pictures and updates everyday. We felt relax during our trip knowing she was having a great time. Anthony, thank you for taking care of Margaux.

I received daily pics/vids/updates about our precious pups,therefore making our trip more relaxing&enjoyable! For wonderful care and peace of mind, I highly recommend Jennifer!

Kathryn is probably the best Rover sitter we’ve had (and we’ve used some lovely sitters). Our dogs are anxious when they’re left, and Kathryn really helped them feel at ease - her fenced yard was perfect and they just seemed to trust her. I’d highly recommend booking your pet’s stay with her!

I was very pleased with the care my dog received from Rachel. She sent multiple pictures & videos daily. He was well cared for & had a wonderful time as per the photos! He was taken on long hikes daily. I would feel very comfortable having Rachel watch him again and highly recommend her.

Thank you so much for taking care of moochie:) they are very good with communication, providing updates and cute pictures of my dog Moochie. He had a great time playing with their dog Ollie. I was a little nervous in the beginning with small Moochie hanging out with big dogs but he seemed to get along with them! Happy he was able to play and socialize. Thank you Jieun, Matth and Ollie for treating moochie as your own for a few days ❤️so thankful 🙏🏼❤️

If you're looking for someone to care for your pet with the utmost love, attention, and dedication, look no further than Christina. She truly went above and beyond during the 6 days she watched my 2-month-old puppy. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in safe hands. Christina made him feel like part of her family, showering him with affection, keeping him engaged, and ensuring he felt comfortable and secure. What truly stood out was her exceptional communication throughout the entire experience. She sent me a steady stream of photos and videos, keeping me updated on his adventures, which gave me peace of mind and let me enjoy my time away without worry. It was so clear that Christina was genuinely invested in his well-being and happiness. I can’t thank Christina and her family enough for her incredible care. My puppy came back happy, healthy, and even more social, thanks to the amazing experience he had with her. If you're considering someone to look after your fur baby, Christina is hands down the best. You’ll never have to worry again – your pup will be loved like part of the family.

Our dog, Bagel, enjoyed a wonderful vacation of his own with Nicole!  This was his second time staying with Nicole.  Bagel is pretty social so being able to play with Nicole's own dogs as well as any other boarders was just the best treat for him. Nicole's daily pictures and quick updates gave peace of mind and assured us that we made the right choice for boarding. Thank you and we will definitely be back!

This was the best experience we had so far with a cat sitter. Our Nala returned to us as though she was at a cat's spa. I can tell she was really pampered, spoined, and very well taken care of.

Gwynee was amazing for my puppies first overnight with someone other than family. She was so efficient and prompt with responses, mostly updating me without having to ask! She gave my dog lots of love and attention and as a dog owner I don’t think anyone can ask for anything more. Highly recommend Gwynee and will definitely use her again in the future! Thank you so so much Gwynee!!

Karina did an excellent job looking after my dog while I was away for the weekend. This was my first time having someone watch him, and her regular updates and photos kept me from worrying. Her friendly dog was an added bonus, and it was clear from the moment I picked up Teddy that he had been well-loved and cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Karina again for future trips.

Second time leaving Cobie with Diana and her family and Cobie couldn’t have been more excited when we pulled back up to the house! So grateful to find someone to look after her like she was their own, that sends tons of updates and enjoys her quirky lovable Golden vibes. Thanks again and 100% will reach out next time I travel to see you all can watch Cobie again!

About: I love my dogs. I have taken care of my dogs . I give baths and play with them and take them to walks. They are family to me. I’m very flexible. My child are 13 and 14 years old. I have a lot of time in the day to play with dogs inside and outside. I have a quiet neighbor and safe home. I have fully fenced in yard, Dogs have enough space to run and play. And would be very safe.

Saori took fantastic care of our large doodle Toby for two weeks while we were traveling. We received daily updates with pictures and videos, which was really great. Toby had so much fun and will be going back next time we travel. I highly recommend Saori to anyone who needs a skilled and kind person to care of their pet.
