“Our pup almost knocked down their door when we dropped him off. Needless to say he remembers being treated well while there and it makes us happy. Thanks Meaghan and Johnny!”

“Madison was absolutely AMAZING with Harley. He was loved, well cared for and extremely happy with her and her family. Madison took great care to keep me posted on how Harley was doing. The daily pictures, videos and contact was excellent and gave me great peace while I was on a two-week trip without him. I highly recommend Madison, and she will be seeing Harley again when I am not able to take him with me. What joy to have found her!”


“I've left my baby Mojo at his vet for boarding and with family always needed some meds to get him through not with Melanie wonderful videos and pics to prove it Mojo and Stella played so well together Melanie did so much for us I will be using her for all my times away Thank you Melanie and Stella”

“Donna is absolutely amazing and wonderful with dogs. I know our babies had the best week with her! We would not hesitate to use her any time we need dog sitting!”

“Steven has taken great care of our dogs on a few separate occasions now. He sends daily photos and updates which our family loves to see when we are away. We are thankful to have found him!”

“I would highly reccomend for anyone who needs a dog sitter to use Colleen. She was very friendly and made us feel comfotable when we arrived. Her house is dog friendly. This was tge first rime I ever used a dog sitter and I was very pleased. She sent several pics of our dog happily enjoying herself and a fun video of my German Shepherd puppy playing with her dog. When I needed to extend the time she allowed us to extend a whold day. It was a great experience and I will use her again.”

“So happy with the care and love Kelly gave to my girls while I was away on a trip. She was so thorough and asked lots of questions to make sure she had everything she needed for the girls stay with her. She sent me pictures and videos every day. I can tell Willow and Juniper had a very nice time. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my babies!”

“It's never easy to find a new sitter when you move to a new area. We were so fortunate to find Diane through Rover. Honey is a loving and sweet dog, but nervous about new situations. Diane understood and went the second mile to care for her. What a blessing!”

“Jasmin and Isaiah are great! I needed a sitter at the last minute and they both ensured I was 100% comfortable every step of the way. They not only provided a safe space for Bella and Dream, but they also walked and played with them daily.”

“Amber was a sweet, patient and caring sitter for our senior dog with lots of special needs. She cared for Ellie as if she was her own and was happy to accommodate all of Ellie's needs. Amber kept us updated on how she was doing through out the stay. We would definitely use Amber again as it was clear Ellie was comfortable there.”

“Brett is an amazing dog sitter! He has always taken great care of our dog when we are away. Brett goes above and beyond taking our dog on walks and sending pictures, and he is very undestanding. Highly recommend!”

“Joyceline has been a great sitter for our dog Ally. We have used Joyceline few times now. She sends pictures and keeps on updating us about our dog. Our dog appears little scared initially about other dogs in the house but she seems to adjust very easily. Will very well use Joyceline again in future and will recommend to others also.”

“Jessica was great! We had a last minute trip and she was able to accommodate us and worked with our schedule. We knew from the meet and great that Gus would be in good hands. We received pictures and videos and Gus looked happy and like he was having a fantastic time’ Gus was comfortable and made himself right at home! Definitely recommend them and will use again!”

“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”
