“John did an excellent job of taking care of our Puddles. He has a very welcoming home, loving demeanor, and cares deeply for the dogs he watches. John did a great job of sending daily updates and was able to give the needed medication without a problem. Highly recommend.”
“Henry and Cherlye Ann were amazing sitters! I felt good as soon as we shock hands in their beautiful vegetable garden (thanks for the rosemary and basil sprigs!) Penny was immediately comfortable and settled right in. They were very responsive and kept me up to date on Penny’s stay. HIGHLY RECOMMEND as sitters; it was very comforting to know they only take on one dog at a time as Penny can be wary of new dogs in close quarters. I know Penny will be back…and honestly, she didn’t seem too keen to leave!”
“Clyde had a wonderful stay with Shannon. Shannon communicates frequently on how our pup is doing and shares lots of nice photos. Clyde enjoyed playing with her dog and had a great time.”
“Paula was amazing with our pup Monty! Lots of updates on how he was doing, sensible questions that showed how much she really cared that he had a good time. We’re so grateful!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous. Lydia was amazing with my pups , she sent updates, videos and pictures the whole time. We will definitely be using her for all our trips out of town from now on. I would give 10 stars if I could!!!”
“Charlotte is always so good. We have used her several times for long weekends, daycare, etc.. She communicates with us and sends us lots of pictures which I love. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Emily is great!! Our dog pepper was very well cared for & loved being in her home. It was a wonderful feeling to go on vacation & feel good about who was caring for our dog.”
“Mallory and her husband are very nice, and very flexible. She will take a picture of my dog and text to me. My dog had fun staying with them. Will definitely recommend Mallory as your dog sitter.”
“First visit! I really appreciated the communication and coordination, so easy to work with. Hops (the dog) came home happy and healthy. Theresa took great care of her; I would book again and refer her!”
“Mosey seemed to have a great time with Taylor. She sent us several pictures, invited us for a meet and greet before we booked, and when we returned early and had a conflict on pickup time, she offered to drive him to our house across town so we didn’t have to make an extra trip! Very happy with the experience!”
“Donna took care of my little old Maltese for a month and he was treated royally! I wasn't 100% sure he would want to come home. It was obvious that she catered to his needs and was more than tolerant of his shortcomings. She was the perfect companion for Teddy and I would definitely use her services again.”
“Denna and her husband were absolutely amazing! They took in my Maltipoo on short notice, and took great care of him. They have officially become my go-to sitters. I got updates everyday, photos and videos and just felt very comfortable and safe leaving biscuit in their hands. My dog also got along really well with their dogs, which was a big plus! Overall, they’re great dog sitters but also genuinely great people. I’m so glad I found them!”
“We LOVE marah!!! She is SO helpful and accommodating, always lets us drop off our poodles at any time. I even forgot to confirm the boarding this time and let her know we were about to leave to drop them off and there was no reservation! She said no problem and accepted it and we were there in ten minutes with our dogs! She sends pics every day and we never worry when our dogs are in her care. This is like the 4th time we’ve used her (we rarely go anywhere 😂) and we know she is our go-to sitter from now on!”
“Lawdy was great to work with! She watched our two dogs for almost a full week, after being asked very last minute, and she gave them the love and attention they needed while she had them. We also had our return flight canceled because of the Microsoft crash (July 2024) and we needed to get home, so we rented a car to drive home instead. It took us an unexpected extra day to get home to pick up our fur-babies, and she made it so easy and stress-free. We would definitely recommend Lawdy for your dogs. 💕”
“Stephanie took the best care of Disco! I could tell she felt right at home with her. She made sure to take her on walks, give her snuggles, and share photos and updates with me throughout her stay. I would definitely book with Stephanie again!”
“Melissa was super attentive to our post-surgery boy's needs while we were away. I got updates every day with his progress. She even introduced him to new things. He was quite the happy dog when we got home. We'll definitely call on her again when we can't take Kai with us.”
“Gretchen is wonderful!! We met before I left Skippy with her. She answered all my questions and Skippy acted comfortable with her. She was kept me informed on how Skippy was doing which included pictures of him. When I went to pick Skippy up he was happy to see me but he also seemed happy to stay if I left him. He's been home for 24 hours now and I swear he misses Gretchen. I've already told Gretchen that we will be seeing her again.”
