“Sherrie was wonderful! She’s excellent with routine. She asked all the right questions, followed all instructions, and is a true animal lover. We wanted a mature and responsible caregiver and after our meet & greet we were positive we found The One. After seeing Sherrie with her own sweet dog, we could tell how committed and wonderful she is as a pet owner. Thank you so much to Sherrie and her finance. ❤️ They made our trip worry free and we will book again.”
“Essence is the best! I know my dogs are in great hands with her. She is always flexible with us, she sends us updates without us having to ask, my dogs are always happy when they leave her place. She is the best and I am so grateful for her. Xoxo thank you Essence.”
“Wei was amazing! She sent copious pics all throughout the stay, always of my pup having the greatest time. I never once had to worry. She even sent us home at the end with puppy treats. ?”
“We had a great experience with her! She was very responsive and sent us photos of my dog every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My dog seemed to have a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated that she took care of his medications as well. We’re very happy with the care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“I don’t have enough words in my vocabulary to describe how amazing Anna has been with my dog. She took her for a week while I was away and sent pictures and descriptions everyday of all the fun they were having. She honestly gave her a better time than I’m able to give her when I’m home - my dog was a spoiled girl! I recommend a million times over.”
“Sanaz was so great for agreeing to watch Roscoe last minute. She sent update photos and messages every day. He also was in such a happy mood when I went to pick him up. Will definitely be requesting her again in the near future.”
“Christian was great. He provided us with an update as to how our dog Foxy was doing in his care and when we did picker up from him, she looked very happy! We would use him again without hesitation!”
“I hadn't used Rover in a long time and I'm so glad I did. Joceline was amazing with my doggie! You can tell she has a lot of experience and genuinely loves what she does. She sent me videos and pictures throughout the stay and my Stormi looked so comfortable and happy with her and her children. I'm so glad I came across her and will definitely be booking with her again and again. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica was absolutely wonderful with Georgia and all of her quirks. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cared about Georgia’s happiness and well-being. She took Georgia on lots of adventures, kept her active and engaged, and even spoiled her with treats and bones purchased out of her own pocket. Jessica truly went above and beyond throughout the stay. She was attentive, communicative, and always happy to provide updates whenever I asked. Knowing Georgia was in such caring hands gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jessica again, and I’m confident Georgia would be thrilled to stay with her in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities as I have a dog on my own 🐶 — from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I live with my friendly mini Goldendoodle 1.5 years, so your pup will have a sweet and social buddy to keep them company (if they’re comfortable with other dogs). I also have a very flexible schedule, so I can easily adjust to your dog’s routine, whether that’s early walks, frequent potty breaks, or just extra cuddle time. I’m experienced in: • Administering oral medication • Senior dog care (gentle handling, slow-paced walks) • Puppy potty breaks • Reading dog body language and energy I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home — and I’m always happy to send photo/video updates while you’re away! 🐕❤️ I’m a stay-at-home wife with a sweet mini Goldendoodle, so my days naturally revolve around dogs! From morning walks to playtime, cuddle sessions, and potty breaks, I’m fully focused on providing a calm, loving, and attentive environment. Because I’m home most of the day, I can give your pup plenty of time, attention, and care — whether they need regular outdoor breaks, meals on schedule, or just someone to be there so they don’t feel alone. Pet care isn’t just part of my routine — it is my routine, and I truly love it! Having dog makes me happy ❤️❤️❤️ In my home, your pup will enjoy a spacious, pet-friendly environment with plenty of room to play and relax. I have lots of toys and balls for indoor fun, and a nearby fenced park that’s perfect for safe, off-leash running and playtime. I keep a calm, structured routine that includes: • Regular potty breaks • Daily walks and play sessions • Clean, cozy rest areas • Fresh water and meals on time • Lots of love, cuddles, and one-on-one attention If your dog has any special needs or routines, I’m happy to follow them exactly — whether it’s a specific feeding schedule, medication, or bedtime routine. I also send frequent photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your pup is doing!
“Natali took wonderful care of Griffin while I was away. She was very patient with all of his quirks and special needs. She was very communicative and regularly let me know how he was doing. I really felt like she made Griffin very comfortable in her home and cared for him as if he were her own. I’m also very grateful to her for being so accommodating when I realized at the last minute that I had booked for the wrong dates! I would absolutely trust her to watch Griffin again in the future.”
“Maria took such good care of Zoe! Zoe is a bit of an anxious dog and she took to Maria immediately. I could tell from the pics that Maria sent, that Zoe was calm and happy and very well cared for. We will surely reach out to Maria again to watch Zoe the next time we’re out of town.”
“Stefan has looked after Finn twice now, and Finn loves going to stay with him. Stefan takes great care of him, is reliable and easy to communicate with, and I feel very comfortable leaving Finn in his care. Finn comes home happy and well looked after. I would definitely recommend Stefan.”
“Chloe was amazing! Seri (dog) really enjoyed her time there. She was able to play with the cat and dog, and I can tell she didn’t want to leave. Don’t know what that says about me lol either way, I highly recommend Chloe for your pet boarding needs!!”
“This was Fig’s second stay with Xander. Drop off to pick up was smooth with pictures and updates along the way. Fig was excited to see Xander when I dropped him off which was a good sign. Looking forward using Xander again soon!”
“Beyond amazing! Our family was away for an extended period of time and Refine was an amazing fur baby sitter. She sent pictures and videos and was very communicative. It can be difficult as a pet parent to leave your pup with someone you don't know or someone new, but it was such a blessing to be on vacation and feel so comfortable that our baby was being well cared for. I cannot say enough about Refine. I highly recommend her and will absolutely be using her in the future.”

Andrew has been our go-to sitter ever since we met him! Buddy is always well taken care of, and we have peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands. We especially like that Buddy always comes home happy and well-mannered, which says a lot about the care and attention Andrew gives him. Highly recommend Andrew!
Xunze was the best! She took such good care of my kitten and was extremely detailed oriented letting me know how she ate and pooped and acted. She was also super flexible and responsive and helped me navigate using this app. Would highly recommend and would definitely book her again. Thank you Xunze!
Sandra and San were absolutely incredible with Leo! We left him with them for 5 nights and felt so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. They were so warm, kind, and caring, and I really appreciated how much effort they made to get to know Leo beforehand and understand his personality and routine. It really showed how responsible and thoughtful they are as sitters. Leo got tons of walks, playtime with Penny, and plenty of room to run around in their big fenced-in yard. We loved all the photos and videos and could tell he was having such a great time. They were also so easy to communicate with, which made everything completely stress-free. We’d absolutely have Leo stay with them again and HIGHLY recommend!!!
Christina truly went above and beyond with my dog Sammy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sammy can be very nervous around new people and takes time and patience to become comfortable, and Christina and her husband were incredibly understanding and respectful of his boundaries from the very beginning. She kept me consistently updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind, and I could tell she was genuinely paying attention to how he was feeling and adjusting her approach accordingly. She was patient, compassionate, communicative, and took all of the information I gave her about Sammy’s routine and temperament seriously. This was a big step for both Sammy and me, and Christina made the entire experience so much easier than I expected. I’m extremely grateful for the care and effort she put into making him feel safe and comfortable. I would absolutely trust her with Sammy again and highly recommend her, especially to anyone with a dog who may need a little extra patience and understanding.
Catherine is the absolute best! She is super communicative, easy to reach, and I’ve had seamless booking experiences with her. She is also super understanding! I had flight delays that resulted in me needing a later pick up time at the last minute and she was super accommodating. My dog Jax loves her and Cashew. 10/10 recommend Catherine and I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future!
Sherrie was wonderful! She’s excellent with routine. She asked all the right questions, followed all instructions, and is a true animal lover. We wanted a mature and responsible caregiver and after our meet & greet we were positive we found The One. After seeing Sherrie with her own sweet dog, we could tell how committed and wonderful she is as a pet owner. Thank you so much to Sherrie and her finance. ❤️ They made our trip worry free and we will book again.
We had a great experience all around with our booking with Lisa. Her accommodation to provide a safe and welcoming home for our dog was more than satisfactory! She is a professional. I am hyper vigilant when it comes to my dog, and Lisa addressed and reassured me of my every concern. There was an immediate connection between our dog, Lisa, and her family. I highly recommend Lisa for the excellent service that she provides!
Christine is great and very caring for my fur baby. She paid attention to Furball’s food and exercises. She also sent tons of great pictures and updates during the stay. Furball had a great time and made new friends. Very happy and I trust her to sit Furball in the future. Thank you Christine
