“I'm so grateful for Natalia! She took amazing care of my pup, Princess. The constant updates and adorable photos made me feel like I was right there with her. Natalia is super communicative, kind, and easy to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thanks again for making me feel so at ease while I was away!”


“Fantastic job madam had a great time and she came home with a gift bag with treats we're very consistent with keeping you informed about your dog pictures text messages definitely recommended”


“Ronald and his family are incredible. We left our dog Daisy for the very first time in his care this past week and she loved it there. My wife was very apprehensive, and that’s an understatement, about leaving Daisy with anyone. Ron sent us pictures and updates every day we were away and we could tell she was having a great time. His fenced in yard gave Daisy lots of room to run and play safely with the other dogs and is the perfect setup for dog sitting. Ronald loves dogs and knows how to care for them. We felt that he treated Daisy, not just as a dog to care for, but also as one of the family. You can tell dog sitting is a labor of love for Ronald and his family. After this trip we are booking Ronald to watch Daisy for 4 more trips we have planned this year. I totally recommend Ronald to anyone looking for a “home away from home” for your dog when you are traveling. Brian & Maggie”


“Natalie and her husband took my 3 dogs in literally the day before my family left on a family trip because I had second thoughts of my previous arrangements. They were with them for 9 days. Their home had plenty of space and running room. She also was very quick with responses and sent updates and pictures to let me know how our 3 dogs were doing. I highly recommend and will be definitely using her again!”


“Thanks so much for watching my fur babies Charlie and Wyatt! Great updates, easy drop off and pick up, wonderful communication and a kind home away from home for my pups. I highly recommend Brittany and her family and will be coming back in the future when I need to travel out of town. 5 stars all the way!”


“Miranda and Samuel treated our dog Mr.Bean like one of their own! They sent loads of pictures and I could tell that our dog was in amazing care. Highly recommend them!!! Will most definitely be booking in the future!”


“Katie was very sweet and shows true kindness to dogs and their owners. She sent us pics and updates so that we could enjoy our vacation without worrying about how Bella was doing. Bella is very clingy and has anxieties when left alone, but Katie handled all her needs. Bella was happy and doing well when we picked her up. We would be more than willing to have Katie sit for us again, and we highly recommend her to others.”


“Amy is a an amazing caretaker and pet lover! Her home is an awesome environment for my pup and anyone’s! She has several outdoor spaces. My dog loves to be in the sunshine and he can do that and get in the shade if he’s hot or be inside with her while she works at home. He’s been so loved in her care. Amy followed my follow up communication preference so perfectly. I had a very busy weekend so she sent me a couple updates and answered so quickly when I had time to reach out. Amy is the best and she is so affordable. Book her today! I will definitely be back.”


“Audrey was a great setter. She was so nice and great with the updates. I could tell that my dog Coco loved her. Coco was so happy to come home. But not before saying goodbye to Audrey. So knowing that Coco loved Audrey. Was the best feeling and knowing that Coco felt safe. Was a good feeling. If i need a setter again i would not second guess asking Audrey again.”


“This was my first experience with Rover and I was very pleased. I was able to enjoy some vacation time and not worry about my dog. Kendra provided excellent updates with how he was doing throughout his stay. Would definitely recommend and use her again.”


“This was my first time ever leaving my dog while I went on vacation and I was super nervous about it but Valerie did such an amazing job and made sure to keep me posted with pictures and videos the whole time. I will definitely be taking her back. Such a good positive experience!”


“Annie was the best with our 3 dogs. Before book her i look a lot of profiles and she had the best comments so even when she was one hour far from me i book her and was the best decision. She sent me photos of my dogs frequently and replying all my messages. I'm really picky about my dogs but she was amazing with them, they were happy to be in her house”
