“Jerica is great! We found her on Rover 3 weeks before our 8-day trip when our regular dog sitter would not be available. I was nervous leaving Archie with a new sitter at first, but she took great care of Archie. Jerica works from home. She has a yard and an adorable corgi so our beagle had someone to play with. Jerica took Archie on walks with her corgi and let Archie snuggle with her at night. It worked out great. She kept us updated every day and sent us lots of photos. We would definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Ana took amazing care of my dog! She gave me frequent updates and pictures about how my pup was doing. I could tell how much love, attention, and care her and her daughter were giving to my dog. They took her on frequent walks and even took her hiking! I very strongly recommend Ana!!”

“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”


“Ponyo did an amazing job keeping our Olive happy, healthy, and engaged during her stay. She sent a ton of pictures each day, mixing useful information (poop quality and quantity) with adorable beagle faces around the yard. We are so grateful for the time she spent with Olive!”

“Bentley had his own vacation while we took ours! Devan was communicative and make sure to keep my little guy active. Bentley even cried when he left he had so much fun! I highly recommend!”

“Really appreciated having my little one with Jennifer - the photo and video updates were so appreciated & it's obvious Jennifer really cares which brought me so much comfort. She was also really understanding when our flight was unexpectedly delayed 3 hours and made sure 🐕 was safe and happy until we arrived. Highly recommend.”

“Thank you so much! You were great in sending me pictures and being flexible with drop off and pick up times. And thank you for actually getting him to eat and finding a better way to serve his food! I would definitely recommend Xiaohui for dog sitting and will try to hire her again”

“Catherine was fantastic! She asked a lot of questions to make sure she had all the info she needed and even walked with me and Molly around the block as a meet and greet before. Molly had a fantastic time at the Seattle center and being out and about!”

“Joey had the most wonderful stay with Debra! She was so kind and sweet, and understood Joey’s needs as a senior citizen pup. As he’s an old pup his legs are a bit weak; Debra went the extra mile to set up a carpet path and extra bedding to make sure he was comfortable and could walk around. She sent consistent updates and lots of photos. Truly made Joey feel welcome and was the best experience we could have ever had!”

“Erica was fantastic! She took great care of Georgia. She had so much fun, and was looking for them when she came home. I would absolutely recommend Erica for your pet sitting and daycare needs.”


“They were very excited to watch Pepper. These are Dog People who stopped at nothing to make sure Pepper was well exercised and well taken care of. Will be booking with them again”

“Ramon took great care of my puppy and sent me updates whenever I asked for them! He is a great sitter and I look forward to reaching out for his services again, I'm sure my puppy will too. He gave her a lot of walks downtown and wasn't worried about her reactive tendencies.”

“Regina was the BEST!! Our little Cooper looked like he was very happy and relaxed with her! She took him for many walks and the pictures she shared of him in her home, priceless! It looked like he pulled out every toy she had in her toy box! We would definitely have her watch our little guy again.”

“Anna was great! She was really communicative and so accommodating, especially on short notice. Dakota warmed up to her quickly and also got along really well with her dog, Cooper. I felt completely comfortable leaving Dakota with her and would definitely book with Anna again.”

“Very successful weekend stay with Jeffrey. Jeffrey was easy to communicate with and he consistently sent me updates of my dog. Yoshi was happy and tired when she got home. He took her on so many walks and even a trip to the dog park where Yoshi made a friend. It felt like Yoshi was on a little vacation while I was on mine. Thanks again Jeffrey, looking forward to another stay.”

“Jessica is amazing! She sent TONS of high quality photos of our dog every day. We can tell she took great care of him and he had an awesome time. We would definitely recommend her and plan on boarding our dog with her again!”

“Pramukh is an excellent communicator and was flexible with drop-off / pick-up times. He sent daily status reports with multiple pictures; I felt assured my BFF was in good hands and cared for.”

Sean was a fantastic sitter! He took excellent care of our 2 year old, high-energy maltipoo. Our dog was happy during his stay, as evidenced by the daily updates and photos. He was walked frequently and given plenty of attention. We’d love to have Sean take care of our dog again!

Vincent was an amazing sitter for Sperg! He stayed for a whole week and some unexpected extra days (due to flight delays) and he was so understanding and accommodating each day we gave him an update. They had an amazing time together, Sperg had so much fun and was well taken care of. I’d trust Vincent with any fur baby you have to ease your worries when away 🫶🏽

Emily & Dylan were wonderful hosts to Mila, who got along great with their husky Otis. They were flexible, kept us updated with photos and messages, and even handled Mila’s nervousness during the Blue Angels with experience. Would love to have Mila stay with them again!

Ling was a great caretaker for my fur baby. He was at ease with her right away, and each update on his visit showed him getting more and more comfortable. She structured his time perfectly with the right amount of rest, play, and fur friends. I would use her services again.

Amy was a wonderful dog sitter. All communication was prompt and felt unhurried. She also told me without my asking when flexibility of schedule was possible. Most importantly, my 1.5 year-old miniature dachshund Hyperion seemed to feel safe and comfortable with her overnight. As of summer 2026, she lives in a house with a yard in a quieter part of town. Lastly, her first photo and text update came the very night I dropped my baby off, which was a great relief to me as a pet parent hiring a sitter for the first time. Thanks a bunch~

This was our first time booking with Jaden as our usual Rover sitter was unavailable. We were a bit nervous since this was a long trip we were leaving our dog Autzen for. But Jaden was amazing and took great care of Autzen and he came home very happy. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying and all was a great experience. Would definitely book again!

Tiffany was the absolute best! She gave me timely, detailed updates for every day Maya was with her. When I got stuck out of the country for two additional days, Tiffany stepped up and was able to accommodate the last-minute change. I highly recommend her for any and all pet care, and will definitely be hiring her again.
