“Amy took care of my 5 year old dachshund (Molly) for 6 days. My family absolutely loves Molly and we had not been away from her in about 3 years. It was really hard to leave her but Amy sent me updates and pictures. She never acted like I was bothering her when I would ask for an extra update. Molly is not just a dog to my family, she is our baby, and I will not hesitate to leave her with Amy again if we are unable to take her on vacation with us again.”

“Carrie took great care of our pit bull Sox in her home while we were out of town for a couple days! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos to assure us he was doing well. Her whole family gave him much love and treated him like their own. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”


“I boarded my baby with Jharasen for a weekend and have no complaints! I was a first-timer so was nervous but I feel confident she took good care of him. She was very flexible with my drop off and pick up as well. Would definitely use her again :)”

“Natalie is absolutely amazing!! We originally booked for a specific day, but I had a last-minute family emergency. She accommodated our dog, Rosie, immediately and adjusted the booking with zero issues. Having that extra day to sort things out with my family without stressing was a lifesaver. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her. Highly recommended, and thank you again!”

“Kendra is great.. Zeus was well taken care of! He will be vacationing with her again ;) Thank you so much for the pictures and updates. Highly recommended for anyone with a furbaby.”

“Susan and her daughters were amazing with our two dogs! I received 15-20 photos a day plus additional videos. The girls looked happy and very well taken care of. They even came home smelling free and clean! Will for sure use in the future and recommend to anyone!”

“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”

“Kimberly was excellent, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet boarding. She was very friendly and flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Guinness was well cared for and well exercised! I'll definitely use her services again!”

“Oh my gosh! She was the best! Mr. Peanut had a great time. This was a my first time leaving my pup~pup, and everything went outstanding. We had meet up meeting first before the stay which took all my fears away.”

“First time booking with Ronald and he was fantastic! He kept us updated and gave us some helpful training tips for the pups. Definitely will be booking with him again!”


“Bethany and her family were such a blessing to us! We were traveling for 10 days and each day we received updates and photos that let us know our babygirl was in excellent hands. It was so nice to have no worries while we were away. We will reqch out again for future reservations!”

“This was our 1st time ever using the app and Laura was amazing with our kitties. I will definitely be using her again and recommend her 100% without worry that our fur babies would get nothing but the best love and attention that they need. She sent picture and videos everyday with updates on how they were doing. It was a great relief to know that we chose the best person to take care of kitties during our vacation.”


“I had a lot of anxiety leaving my pup for the very first time and Russell did an amazing job with her! I would highly recommend him for your pet’s care! She was very well taken care of and he played with her, took her on walks and made her feel right at home. She is a high energy dog and he did fantastic with her!”

“Hands down the best experience with Rover we’ve ever had! I’ve never been so excited to get pictures of all the activities my pup has done that day! She got tons of walks, made new friends, and got to swim! Melissa was a great communicator and I’m so excited to have found her on this app!”

“Jessica was absolutely incredible with our pup!! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with frequent photos/videos throughout the day. Her dogs also become bffs with your pup and Leo will give any high energy dog a run for their money like he did with our pup :) Jessica is very professional and fully has our trust and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Brad sent me lots of pictures of my pups having fun with Brad, his wife, and their two pups. I think they were having more fun than I was having while I was out of town. I recommend Brad and would definitely use him again!”
