1. Saren C.

“Saren is everything you would want in a dog sitter. She is responsible, good with dogs, good with communications, and very easy to work with. We could not have been happier with the week she spent with our dog.”


2. Miranda L.

“Miranda was GREAT!! I felt completely comfortable being away too. My pup is only 3 months old and he was well taken care of. Miranda communicates well, sends pictures and it was clear Buster was one happy pup! Thank you, Miranda!”


3. Meredith H.

“Meredith took great care of all of our animals. She messaged us to let us know that they were fed and that they were doing good. She also sent us a picture of our pups. Thank you so much.”


4. Mitzi C.

“It was a pleasure to have Mitzi pet sit at our house. It is obvious that she loves animals and they were very comfortable around her. Mitzi kept us updated with text and pictures all weekend. We would definitely ask her again in the future and trust her with our furry family!”


5. Elijah Gipe B.
“Aliyah did a great job watching our dogs for a two week period, especially over the holidays. She was accommodating of our early flight time and did a great job taking care of our fish as well. She left the house clean upon our return. She responded quickly to my messages and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely recommend.”


6. Victoria & Jacob K.
“Tori and Jacob are the best! They're both huge animal lovers. I trusted them to watch my 75lb goldie who needs a lot of stimulation and exercise. They did a great job with Ollie. Tori sent me many updates throughout Ollie's stay. Highly recommend!”


7. Alexander A.

“Alex and his wife took great care of our three pups and our home!”


8. Aden S.

“Aden was very attentive and took great care of our dog. Definitely recommend!”


9. Sandra B.

“Sandra exceeded our expectations by a mile! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies who are a lot of work and Sandra handled their care with ease! We received morning and evening updates with plenty of pictures to relieve our anxiety from leaving them. One of our puppies needed two daily medications and Sandra was very prompt with their med schedule. She provided daily walks and was always there to let them outside to run around and play and give them plenty of love. When we returned from our trip we had daily notes on what the boys were up to, any new behaviors or just new funny quirks they developed. We also were able to see the spreadsheets she brought verifying the walks and meals they were given. Our house was left very clean and tidy and so were the puppies! It’s not even a question, we will most definitely be using Sandra in the future!!”


10. Owen S.

“Owen was the best! I will definitely use his services again. Thank you for taking care of my babies!”


11. Emilia M.

“We’ve hired Emilia twice to stay with our dog, Apollo. She’s been excellent! Both stays were during extreme weather events (unplanned, of course) and she did a great job keeping us updated and make sure our dog was safe and well cared for. She sent pictures and even shared a video our son made with our dog to let him know we were thinking of him. She also leaves the house clean and even helped care for my garden during some extreme heat. We will absolutely continue to hire her!”


12. Bailey W.

“Bailey was our pet sitter shortly after we moved to the area. She was so kind and willing to go with the flow while we weren't 100% settled in our new house. We came home to happy, healthy pups 😊”


13. Shannon W.

“Wow. Shannon is wonderful. She is a professional pet sitter who is caring, thoughtful, and empathetic towards your fur babies. I can’t say enough positive things about her and how she cared for my 3 pets. She does work in a pet clinic and it shows in her care of your fur babies. She also took care of my house and treated it with the same respect that she would her own. I highly recommend her.”


14. Katherine P.
“Katherine is such a great pet sitter! She loves spending time with our dogs and they love her so much. She does plenty of walks and play sessions with our higher energy dog and regular cuddle sessions with our couch potato. She’s also great with their meds and handling their special needs as older dogs. She’s super responsible and kind. Your pets will love her!”


15. Sylvia Rosanah

“Sylvia was great!! She was on time, sent lots of pictures, and our dogs were very happy to hang with her. She also took our dogs on multiple walks and played with them in the yard. She went above and beyond for our dogs!”


16. Reyna M.

“Reyna was wonderful to work with. She let us know her schedule prior to booking to make sure it would work with our dogs needs. She communicated on a regular basis on how our dog was doing. Our dog can be very anxious and difficult and Reyna handled her very well. We got lots of pictures while we were gone, which were great. Definitely will use Reyna again.”


17. Nathan F.

“Best Rover I’ve had! Dogs adored him, he maintained communication, and left the house better than he found it. Highly recommend!!”


18. Daniel L.

“I cannot say enough good things about Daniel. We had hired another sitter who, in the middle of a 3 week stay abandoned our dog. I was able to reach Daniel on very short notice and he stepped in and saved the day. He stayed with Buddy and provided excellent care until we returned home. This is the second time we have used Daniel and both times he was great. Not only was the dog well cared for, the house was clean and tidy when we returned.”


19. Becca M.

“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”


20. Jessica S.

“Jessica was outstanding with Tango. She is punctual, caring and a very good listener. She treated Tango like her own. Jessica stayed at our home and kept us informed on Tango’s well being. She is trustworthy and knows dogs. We will be using her again!”
