Ernesto was professional, flexible, and kind from beginning to end. The meet and greet was very valuable. He asked several detailed questions and interacted with my dog for a few minutes. I was also able to ask him a few helpful tips due to his extensive knowledge and experience working with dogs. Top tier dog sitter!

I believe Ernesto took good care of Cooper, my year old Husky. He sent updates and Cooper was in good shape and good spirits when I picked him up following his four night stay—the first time we have boarded Cooper. We will be confident return customers 🙂
Ernesto was comfortable with both of our dogs and took extra measures to make sure they were comfortable with him! So glad he was available to help!

Ernesto is awesome. He took care of my baby as if she was his own. He made me feel comfortable leaving her for the first time with someone else.

Ernesto was a great person for the doggos! Super responsive and was willing to take the dogs on a few hours notice. Set up a meet and great before the hand over and the dogs were immediately comfortable to the point they wanted to get in his car and not ours. Jovi and bear came home happy and honestly more calm. 10/10 recommend

Ernesto was very responsive and took great care of our dog sending updates and pictures during a two day stay.

Great with Bogart! Personable and responsive.
We have used Ernesto twice. Once for a weekend and once overnight. Both times he, and his kids, were a pleasure to work with. Felt good leaving our puppy with them.

Ernesto took good care of my dog and he definitely had fun, the proof was in his little paws, definitely played in the yard a lot. The only reason he doesn’t have a perfect rating is due to of lack of communication. I may have higher anxiety than other owners when my pup is being watched, but I’m used to multiple updates throughout the day. Updates (one) were only provided when I requested them. Secondly, I mentioned to Ernesto this was a day care service and he assumed it was a boarding service, he apologized for the mistake, but nonetheless it was a mistake. Which led to me sending 3 messages prior to my arrival to pick him up, even as early as an hour notice. Upon arriving, he was not home and was not able to give me my dog as he was fulfilling personal obligations (he was still under the impression my pup was boarding). He did apologize, but that doesn’t mean communication wasn’t attempted from me prior to this mix up and no messages were returned until i called him. Overall great with dogs but lacks communication with owners.

I hired Ernesto to watch my cat. When I came back home from a trip, my cat seemed very tense and worried. I don't know what he did towards my cat, but I can tell she was not doing well after his "care." My cat's water bowl and food bowls were both very dirty. I don't think he cleaned either once. Also, he came by my home at very random times (I booked a time slot for 6pm because that is when my cat eats wet food) usually very late at night, well outside the booked time schedule. On the last day of my booking, he was scheduled to come by around 6 pm but, by the time I arrived home around 8pm, he had not come by my home. Additionally, several days he didn't take a single photo of my cat (he mentioned that he could not find my cat and only know that she was alive because she ate the food set out for her.) I don't know if he dislikes cats or what, but I would strongly recommend not hiring Ernesto to watch cats (perhaps he is better at taking care of dogs.)

Ernesto and his family were great with our pup. He came home so tired and it was most certainly because he had a great day of playing during his stay . I appreciate the communication and pictures as well. Drop off and pick up was smooth and easy. We will definitely be bringing Waylon back to visit Ernesto !!

He is very good with Finn
Ernesto was amazing and communication was great. Our pet seemed to take a liking to him which made us feel great about leaving our new pet with someone. This was our first time using the Rover service.

Amazing with my dog ! Ended up going the route of in an house dog visitor and walker closer to my home, but Dunamis loved his days with Ernesto! I did not have to worry that Dunamis would pick up bad habits or anything concerning because he was in great and k9 certified care. He was the best!

Ernesto was accommodating for my last min request. His full time job is to take care of canines at his home. He is very knowledgeable about dogs and was willing to take care my vivacious albeit untrained 5 month puppy. He provided pictures, but only when I requested. From pictures my dog seems happy at his place. Bonus - he bathes the dog at the end of stay. Will definitely use him again

Finn seems to have a good time. Comes home tiered but happy
Ernesto is reliable and friendly and goes above and beyond. I would 100% book him again!

Ernesto was amazing with our super anxious older dog who was unable to be boarded. We will definitely be using him for all of our dog watching needs.
Finn loves going to Ernestos
