“Keasha was a stellar pet sitter to Milo my Yorkshire Terrier she provided such TLC to him while I was away. She checked in with me daily on him eating, drinking and walking. Keasha gave me such peace of mind.”


“Karen is an absolute angel! I am a first time pet owner and this was my first time sending my dog to a sitter. She made the whole process so smooth. From the meet and greet to the day of drop off, she kept in touch and was very responsive. I received updates with pictures and video while I was away on vacation and my shy dog adjusted very well in her environment. In addition, she is very knowledgeable and provided lots of helpful tips in caring for my dog at home!! I will definitely be booking Karen again with no hesitation!”

“Can’t say enough great things about these guys. All the reviews are correct! Chris and Whitney are genuine, caring, and great communicators. And most importantly, sincere dog lovers. They sent daily updates on our 5 days away from our pup. They went above and beyond to help figure out drop off and pick up arrangements. And they just made the whole process of going away and trusting someone else to watch your fur baby a very happy and comfortable experience. Our pup had a blast, and she is an anxious rescue. She settled right in and was welcomed warmly. From the meet and greet until the time we got her back, you could just tell these guys were genuinely caring and loving humans. And it showed in their care and services. HIGHLY recommend Chris and Whitney. Amazing services, and they made our time away without our pup a very eased and comfortable experience. Thanks guys!!!”

“This was our first experience on Rover and if it can get better than Leanne, I’d be shocked. We’d only boarded our little guy once (2 week ago at our vet) and it was nothing compared to this. Leanne was communicative, sent us tons of photos of our happy pup, and was very easy to exchange info/socialize our pups in advance. On our way back from our time away, my wife and I were saying we can’t wait to leave a review…and we hope our Blue dog wants to come home ?. Thank you Leanne for caring for our boys along with all of your own. Leanne is close to TF Green as well, so super convenient for families that need care and may be flying. We’ve found our go to sitter for our little guy.”

“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”

“Thank you Matthew for taking care of my baby while I was gone for a weekend . I appreciate the pictures you sent and playing fetch with him . Will definitely recommend to friends !”

“Moose LOVES when we go away and its only bc he gets to go see his second family at zachs . Hes loved and spoiled the same way we would at home. Zach is definitely a great choice for pet sitting.”

“Cherylee and Steven are great dog sitters! My dog is a slow to warm type and they were able to get her comfortable and eating quickly during her stay. They were also communicative and kept me up to date with how my dog is doing. I greatly recommend Cherylee and Steven!”


“Jesicca pays attention to detail. She wanted to make sure that she knew my little guy: from his treats and his routine down to the way he likes to play ball. I never worried a minute while I was out of town because she had everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that my little guy didn’t have to go stay somewhere else, but could stay in his own routine. I would HIGHLY recommend Jessica and her pet sitting services to ALL my friends with furry people. Don’t even worry about stressing or planning for a trip to the kennel, just contact Jessica and take care of your little family. AND, she will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pets and their behavior.”
“Eve maintained great communication throughout our pup's stay, really gave us a peace of mind. Well kept grounds and clean household. Her own dogs are friendly and kept our dog busy. We are so lucky to have found her. 100% recommend.”

“Carolina was great with Kobe. This was our second time using Carolina. She communicated with me throughout the stay and sends pictures that ensures me that Kobe was in good hands. I look forward to booking Carolina for future stays.”

“cannot recommend Isabel enough! She is truly the sweetest and most attentive dog sitter I’ve ever had. From the very beginning, she made me feel at ease by keeping me updated with messages and pictures, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares for dogs. She goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is happy, safe, and comfortable, and I never have to worry when she’s around. I fully trust her and plan to book her every chance I get. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and detail-oriented, look no further—she’s the best! 🐶💖”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing watching Mika. Ashley not only treated her like her own dog but was very accommodating when I had to drop Mika off sooner than planned. Ashley is such a caring and honest person. If you want to leave your fur baby with someone, make sure to book with Ashley. Thank you so much Ashley for taking great care of Mika❤️”

“Kendra was great! She was flexible and communicative and my older dog had a slight seizure while in her care and she kept her cool and also made me feel comfortable from afar! My dogs enjoyed their visit and would definitely recommend and book again!”

“Bridget is really friendly and flexible. She didn't hesitate to accommodate us when we needed to extend our trip. My dog also loved her. I highly recommend her.”

“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Aslan! She sent such cute update pics and I could tell Aslan had the best time. I couldn’t have picked a better sitter. Thanks so much again Sarah!”

We had a great experience! He took excellent care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He kept me updated with regular messages and lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. My dog looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.

I booked Kendra as a sitter for my 2 pups due to an emergency, super last minute. I can be a nervous dog mom, but from the moment we interacted, I knew for a fact she was THE one to care for them! She responded quickly and was flexible with my timeframe. My pups literally ran into her house (never happened before). They can be anxious, but not with her, they settled in immediately. Her house is set up perfectly for comfiness, they slept in her bed and chilled on her couch. One of my dogs can’t use stairs due to surgery and Kendra was on top of it, I truly felt so reassured the whole time. She sent constant updates. They even left her house with new toys and treats she said they enjoyed during their visit! I would recommend Kendra to anyone in the area, I am so lucky she was available and will use her again in the future. She’s a true dog lover and a gem on this app. Honestly I think my pups will just want to go over for a visit lol. 5 stars for sure, thank you!

We felt very comfortable leaving Molly with Sarah in her home. The nicely sized fenced-in yard gave Molly a perfect place to sunbathe and have a great time running around with her new friend Rocky (who is a gorgeous and very sweet boy!). Molly seemed relaxed and happy when we picked her up. Sarah's background as a ER veterinary nurse was a big plus from our perspective given Molly is a "tri-pawd" and an older lady--and Sarah's obvious love for dogs and strong command of her "pack" were all things that impressed me when we met. She was excellent in communicating with us and being flexible with scheduling. Will definitely come back to Sarah the next time we need someone to care for Molly while we are away.

We cannot recommend Anely enough! She watched our dog Sebastian for two weeks, and as it was Sebastian's first time with a sitter since we recently got him, we were a little nervous leaving him. Anely immediately put us at ease with her clear communication and obvious expertise. It was clear from the start that she truly understands dog behavior, and her attentiveness to detail was impressive. She even noticed Sebastian had a dry nose and addressed it right away. He came home happy and healthy, which honestly says it all. We will absolutely be booking Anely again!!

Anne and Joe took wonderful care of our pup, Louie. They kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. They even sent us home with a polaroid photo of Louie, which was such a thoughtful touch! They were trustworthy, communicative, and clearly cared for Louie as if he were their own. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to others! Thank you, guys! (:

Marilyn was an absolute blessing! She accepted Smoky last minute after my original sitter canceled while I was here visiting from Florida for a family vacation. From the moment I met her, I felt completely safe and comfortable leaving him in her care. She kept me updated, sent pictures, took him on walks, and made sure he was happy and engaged. It was obvious Smoky truly enjoyed his time with her. She even told me he was such a joy and hated to see him leave, which meant so much to me and showed how much she truly cared for him. I truly appreciated the love and care she gave him. The next time I bring Smoky home, Marilyn will absolutely be my first and only choice. Highly recommend her!

Connie was great with Eli and also very communicative with me, sending updates and photos of my big boy throughout the time that she was watching him. She also took the time to take him for a little walk as it was a beautiful day and overall, Eli seemed very content with spending his day with Connie and we’re looking forward to the next time!

Julia is amazing! She was super communicative, sending pup photos and info throughout her time with Charlie. He clearly had a great time, and even ran back toward her apt after we left—found a new best friend! Julia was extremely understanding when our trip was unexpectedly prolonged, and we felt at ease knowing he was in good hands until we could return. Appreciate the flexibility. Highly recommend Julia!!
