1. Ciara H.

“Ciara and her team were great with my Two dogs, one of which I asked her last minute to care for (a day prior) and she was able to accommodate and take care of both my dogs. She was on time with pick up and drop off and just super courteous and nice. My dogs looked happy. Very content with their stay with Ciara. Thanks!”


2. Mackenzie M.

“Booking with Mackenzie was a breeze from start to finish-even with issues on my end with flights/pick up, she was great! I appreciated knowing our dogs were ok for an entire week with someone new and came home happy. Thank you and we will definitely be using/recommending you for future needs!”

“Rebecca did an amazing job taking care of Gizmo. She made him completely at home and a part of her family. Gizmo got lots of cuddles - which he loves! Rebecca sent photos during his stay so we could see how well he was getting along. We could relax and enjoy our trip since we we’re confident that Gizmo was so well cared for.”


6. Ashley D.

“We had a wonderful experience with Ashley. She took care of Prue, our 1.5 month old baby while we travel outside of the Country. She kept us informed the whole time, sending us picture, texts and videos of how well Prue was doing. Ashley is amazing!! She care and loved Prue as if she was her own and she is also very friendly and profesional. We could tell Prue had a fun time with Deiga, Ashley’s dog and now Prue’s BFF. My husband and I feel very lucky to have found Ashley. We highly recommend Ashley and will definitely use her service again if need it.”

“Nathen was wonderful! He was flexible and communicative, and really put us at ease from the first moment we met him. Max had big fun at Nathen’s, playing with the other dogs! Nathen texted us while we were away, and sent a video of Max playing with the other dogs, so we could see he was loving his stay there. We’d love to have Nathen keep Max again, and it’s such a relief to find someone so caring for our sweet boy!”

10. Sarah H.

“First time user with Rover here :-). Sarah and family immediately made me feel at peace with leaving my pug. Layla has poor eyesight and hard of hearing, so it was concerned. Sarah set up a meet and greet to see if Layla would be a good match. Sarah's home was very cheerful, clean and smelled great! Layla was happy and sleepy after her little vacation! Definitely will request Sarah anytime we need to go out of town. Thanks Sarah”

“I would definitely recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a family friendly pace for your dog to stay. After meeting her and her family I felt so comfortable leaving my doodle with her as part of her family. Would highly recommend!”


14. Jessica K.

“I recently had Jessica take care of my miniature schnauzer, Joy, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jessica was attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring. She provided regular updates, ensuring I felt at ease during my trip. Joy came back happy and well-fed, which speaks to Jessica’s dedication. I highly recommend Jessica as a pet sitter. Her professionalism and love for animals shine through, and I’ll definitely be booking her services again in the future.”

“The best dog sitter in KC! My dog Coco has the best time with Angelica and her dogs. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter who's friendly, accommodating, and an overall great experience. You can tell she really cares about you and your dog”




16. Laney G.

“Laney and her family are outstanding. I have never left Shelby with anyone before so I was very nervous. She sent me picture updates and responded to all of my texts. Shelby had great time with them and because of that, I was able to relax and enjoy my trip! I'm so lucky to have found Laney....she and her family are the best!!”


17. Jason E.
“Jason and his wife were awesome! My Pit has a lot of energy! Was awesome when I got home from a long weekend and he was worn out from staying there! Didn’t know how Dexter would react to other dog since we just adopted him 3 weeks ago, but they worked with him and found another dog that he enjoyed playing with! So it’s good to know he can play nice with some dogs! Would highly recommend them!”


18. Laura G.

“Laura was awesome. Our dogs were so spoiled and loved going on walks and snuggling with her. Super close to the airport to droop off and pick up were super easy. We will use her again !!! She even sent them home with their own little blankets.”

“Mishel and Adlai have watched our two dogs twice and we were very happy with their care. We appreciate the pictures, videos, and updates. The fenced yard provides a good place for the pups to run around and explore. We highly recommend Mishel and Adlai and would definitely use them again.”
