“Fitz really loves spending time with David. When I dropped him off, his tail wagged so hard and he nearly leapt out of the car to see him. David is always communicative and kind. We are so grateful for him!”
“Jasmine was fantastic with Maple! She watched her at her apartment for a few days while I was busy with work. She gave great updates and Maple was always super happy to see her in the morning.”
“Jeongeun was absolutely fantastic! We were on a day trip to Boston for an appointment and we were visiting from out of State- we needed someone to take care of our puppy and Jeongeun did such a great job. She kept us posted and sent us photos and we are very happy with her services. 100% recommend!”
“This was our first experience with a dog sitter and Emily was amazing!We had a duck tour in Boston and needed someone to look after our pup for a few hours.She responded quickly and made us feel at ease right away.Our dog felt comfortable and even took a nap at her house 🥰 We’re so happy he had such a good time. Thank you so much, Emily! ☺️”
“Jennifer and Darren are both wonderful. She even made homemade treats for a friend and shared them with Kingsley, sent him some for home and he loved them! Thanks for being flexible as well, I was running late for pick-up and she was super kind about it.”
“Tara and Logan were great with Cashew! They sent us so many pictures and kept us posted throughout the day! Will definitely be going back regularly!”
“Nate is a wonder with my pups and super accommodating to me. This was my first time using rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! He sent pictures, and bonded with both of my dogs who are typically skeptical of new people. They felt right at home with Nate and I couldn’t appreciate it more.”
“Wonderful and loving couple that clearly loves dogs. Did a meet and greet and sought out guidance on care. I look forward to them watching her again! My pup loved being there, and I had complete trust in them!”
“I can’t recommend Fernanda enough! She took such amazing care of my 4-month-old puppy, and I could tell right away that he was in great hands. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and kind—not just with my pup, but with me as well. I was running late due to an accident under the tunnel, and she was so understanding and flexible, which I really appreciated. The best part? My puppy absolutely adores her! He lights up with excitement every time he sees her, which tells me everything I need to know. It’s such a relief knowing I can trust someone who genuinely cares and creates such a positive, safe environment for him. Thank you again for everything—you’re truly the best!”

“Alex was so great today with our dogs! He put our mind at ease with many awesome pictures of our dogs resting in his comfortable apartment while we had a stressful day moving. Highly recommend Alex for all your pet car needs.”
“This was our first time using DogVacay, and we had a great experience with Sharon. Our initial request was answered in a prompt and professional manner, while her friendly and welcoming personality made us feel instantly at ease with leaving our pup in her care. Sharon's apartment was very clean and more than spacious enough for our small dog. She even sent us a photo during his stay. Highly recommended!”
