“Shuling was a fantastic and attentive sitter to our dog while we were out of town. We got regular updates about his care with photos and videos, and she made sure he was comfortable and happy during his stay!”
“Michelle was absolutely wonderful while watching my Gigi. She provided me with daily updates and made the whole dog-sitting process so easy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog-sitter!”
“Elizabeth took excellent care of our labradoodles over a long weekend - one who is 9 years old, and one who is still a pup at 6 months old. We received a daily picture and text updating us on their stay. She was able to administer medication to our older dog when a thunderstorm rolled in to make her more comfortable. Both pups came home well taken care of and sleepy from so much play time with Chief and Todd. We would happily use Elizabeth's services again. Thank you again Elizabeth for taking such good care of our doggos!”
“Kate was so great and accommodating ! She was a great communicator and so good with my dog. He felt so comfortable with her . I got lots of updates and pictures which I was happy to receive without having to ask. Def recommend using her and will continue using her in the future! Wish I could give her 6 stars!”
“First time using a sitter for my two dogs who are now seniors. Andy was responsive and met with us first in person so we felt comfortable. During out trip, he kept us up to date with what was happening and sent lots of pictures. We will use Andy in the future!”
“My family and I were in town for a couple of days and we needed a last minute dog sitter. Cait had some good reviews and so we decided to move forward and have her dog sit. She was awesome! Our dog had a great time and Cait said she enjoyed playing with her dogs. If we’re in town again, we would definitely reach out!!”
“Peggy made sure my dogs were always cared for and taken care of. This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone outside of family so I was nervous but I am glad I chose Peggy for my dogs as she was the best! I would definitely ask her to watch my dogs again.”
“Lindsay was great!!! She was punctual, pleasant, and took great care of my two dogs! They played, enjoyed her kids, loved playing with her dog in the huge fenced yard… I couldn’t have chosen more wisely! Thank you Lindsay!”
“Dan stayed with Jillian for two weeks and I felt confident that he was in good hands. She took special care of him during thunderstorms and the 4th of July fireworks. She sent regular updates and pics of Dan. He looked like he was right at home and had a great time playing with the other dogs. We’ll board him there for our next trip.”
“Candice was wonderful with our little gal pal, a 7 yo Shiba Inu female. She actively updated us the entire time, and we felt super confident knowing Candice was caring for her. Thanks Candice! We can’t wait to use her overnight services again. I highly recommend her! She’s really a superstar dog sitter & very nice, kind person :)”
“Dana took my pup Dillon for a few overnights when I went out of town recently, and he had the best time! She sent frequent photo updates of his adventures, and it was clear that she cared for him like he was her own. The fenced-in back yard was perfect for this city boy to stretch his legs! 🐾”
“I was so nervous boarding our two dogs with a Rover sitter vs a facility, but both Amy and her husband took SUCH good care of our babies. I had a family emergency and had to leave them for five days. They went on tons of walks, got ample amounts of snuggles, and I was updated with pictures every step of the way. I could focus on family knowing they were in excellent hands, and we will certainly be using them again!”
“Kim was great! I felt very comfortable leaving my elderly dog with Kim and her family. I really appreciated that she only takes one dog at a time so that I knew my dog would get the attention (and the sleep) that he needs! I received daily updates and pictures and am very happy with our stay!”
“So happy that we were able to find Ashley on such short notice. She took very good care of our Leo. She made sure to send regular updates and some adorable pictures of our dog enjoying himself. Thanks again, and I look forward to booking with you in the future”
“Kat was awesome! She watched my 2 dogs over Thanksgiving and other than her own dogs she also was caring for a couple others as well, and they all fit in together so well. I know my dogs had a great time and were well cared for. I will definitely use her services again in the future! She was very flexible with drop off/pick up times and I felt my dogs were in great hands the whole time.”
“My dog was a little on edge due to the new environments at Jenna's home when I first dropped him off. But not too longer after I left, I received a photo of him lying on her lap as content as could be.”
“Celena was great! She sent tons pictures of our boy having a great time and she had plenty of updates. We also appreciate that she worked with us on our drop-off and pick-up times! We will definitely work with her again!”
“Idi did an amazing job taking care of my chihuahua! She is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. My little fur baby was happy, well-cared for, and even seemed calmer when I returned. I highly recommend Idi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
