“Andy did a great job helping Nate feel at home. Nate got snacks he likes and outside breaks that were on his schedule. Andy sent a lot of updates with pictures. Besides the cute pictures, Andy sent me a picture that showed Nate feeling relaxed. Frankly, I was glad Nate still wanted to come home! Andy understands dogs, has an appreciation for the variety of normal dog behavior, and really does love dogs. His daughter also really loves dogs. Although I found Andy through Rover, a mutual friend confirmed that he’s a dog lover and would trust him with her dogs. Knowing that we had mutual friends was literally an answer to prayer. I would definitely trust this family with Nate again.”
“Casey was wonderful with our American Eskimo dog who has a bit of a personality and takes time adjusting in new environments. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She gave us very frequent updates via text and pictures throughout his stay so I wasn’t left wondering how he was doing. I already have his next stay booked with Casey!”
“As soon as my dogs met Amber, they were comfortable with her. My Maine coon cat, that is very particular hung by her enjoying continual petting. The photos of our dogs that she sent to us while she had them at her place showed how comfortable they were. I highly recommend Amber. Animals can sense her connection with them.”
“Candice takes wonderful care of Max, and provides great feedback with photos and videos throughout the stay. I know Max is in safe and caring hands when I leave him Candice.”
“Our dog loved staying and playing at Tania’s house! The fenced-in yard is wonderful, and Tania sent messages and pictures each day we were gone! He’s staying there again next month!”
“Ann took excellent care of my dog, Max! She ensured that he got plenty of playtime, and sent me plenty of pictures and updates daily. She even surprised me by giving him a good bath! She also kept him an extra night when I got stranded at the airport. She certainly has a passion for caring for dogs.”
“We had a great experience with Kath and Jordan! They were able to accommodate our three dogs for almost a week, and our dogs got along wonderfully with their own beautiful pets. Kath and Jordan kept us updated with regular pictures, which really put our minds at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands. They have a spacious yard for the dogs to run and play, making it a great environment for them. We highly recommend Kath and Jordan and will definitely book with them again!”
“Amanda goes above and beyond. This was our first time re-booking and she put so much thought into Bunny’s visit! Always excellent with sending updates and photos. We feel so comfortable leaving our puppy with Amanda!”
“Alex and Martha are great! Communication is excellent. They spent a lot of time with our dog and she had a blast playing with their dog. We were worried about leaving her with a sitter for the first time but we had absolutely no issues at all. Will definitely use them again for our next trip!”
“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! She is incredibly welcoming, and friendly. My senior dog had the BEST weekend in her care, definitely coming back!”
“We had a last-minute change of plans and were in need of a pet sitter for Thanksgiving weekend. Stacey responded quickly, and we were able to drop our 2 babies off the next morning. She was quick to respond to my texts during their stay and sent updates and lots of pictures, videos at least once a day, mostly several times a day, and always when I asked. I’m very hesitant to leave my babies anywhere, but Stacey was great, and I will definitely use her again!”
“I definitely wanna give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to Dina, she has been super amazing. The moment I think about my Dog, I am already getting a text that she is doing exceptionally well. I was so nervous to drop off my puppy to a stranger. But Dina has made me and my wife worry free. I definitely recommend her, and I will 100 percent use her again for future pet sitting. Also the pictures she has sent me of my puppy every single day, has been nothing but amazing to see that my dog is doing so well. Thank you so so so much. I will recommend her to anyone.”
“Dana was Awesome!!!! She kept in contact with us during our trip. Sent pictures. She was sweet with our big girl. I would definitely want her to dog sit again!!!”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter Javiera! She was incredibly attentive and kept us updated throughout our vacation with regular messages and adorable pictures of our pup. It truly put our minds at ease knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We’ll definitely be using Javiera again, highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”
“Nathan is great! He kelp my Pitt Krystee for seven days. Each day he sent videos and pictures of how she was doing! He treated Krystee as if she was his own! I highly recommend Nathan for pet sitting, and will use Nathan again next month when I go out of town again! Thank you Nathan for taking such good care of Krystee!!!”
“Angelee is fantastic! She did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Charlie while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Because Charlie is diabetic and requires daily insulin shots we are always concerned about leaving him. But Angelee was great about sending us bright and happy messages “from Charlie” as well as multiple photos every day to reassure us he was doing well. Knowing he was in good hands was such a relief and made our vacation much more relaxing and enjoyable. We are so glad we found her!”
“Ava did a phenomenal job caring for my two pups, Trooper & Shaiya. We scheduled a meet and greet the evening before boarding and Ava kindly came to my residence to meet the dogs and ensure everything would work well with her dog as well. My dogs are young (8 and 6 months), and have a lot of play energy. Ava did a great job caring for them and provided me with pictures/videos along the way. Given her success with this challenge, I'm highly confident she will take excellent care of your dog as well! 10/10 recommend!”
