“We usually have family who care for our two dogs while we travel. But when no one in our family is available, Anner is our go-to! He is sweet and loving with our two boys and takes great care of them. Thank you so much, Anner! We appreciate all you do to make our boys' stay with you a safe and happy one!”

“Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Nicole and her family were great with our dog Marty. We met once before leaving him for 4 days and immediately he seemed at ease, and I should note our dog Marty is pretty nervous around new people and new dogs. Nicole sent regular updates and each one showed a very happy pooch. He seemed very at ease with the family dog Dakota and bonded with their son. We will definitely ask Nicole and her family to dog-sit again and highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Melissa is a thoughtful and caring dog-sitter. She told me she loves dogs and it show in all her actions when she dog sat my labradoodle. She read him very well and met his emotional needs.”

“Nandita did such an amazing job watching our Goldendoodle for nearly 2.5 weeks!! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter while we were away, she was so great at providing us updates and pictures. We never once were worried about his wellbeing while being gone for so long. He got plenty of exercise and play, and we can’t wait to use her again when we go away next, knowing he’s in amazing hands!”

“Angela watched my senior pit bull for 5 nights and was amazing! She communicated daily with photos and updates and took wonderful care of my sweet Rosie. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an engaged caregiver. I will definitely leave Rosie with her again next time I leave town.”
“Arly helped us out in a last minute booking situation & she couldn’t have been more proactive, communicative & caring. Gus had a great time with Arly & we had so many wonderful updated & photos, everything was very well taken care of”

About: I have been watching dogs since the age of seven I like going for a long walks in the park, training exercises and bringing my dog to lunch with me I have a very flexible schedule. I work from home and around throughout the entire day Sunday through Saturday available all day holidays as well. I have a fence yard perfect for dogs. The dogs can run in the yard or there is a park two blocks over from the house where I take the dogs on walks.
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. Spending time with animals is my happy place and nothing brings me more joy than caring for and playing with them. I have a great deal of experience taking care of many dogs of various breeds and sizes. I currently have the flexibility to fully dedicate myself to what I would call my dream job which is working with animals. I can go on long or short walks and have an enclosed dog park around my area. I have taken care of dogs with medical problems and have experience giving dogs medicine such as eye drops and pills. I am a quick learner when it comes to the specific conditions the owner has for their dog .
“Katherine was so helpful taking our dog Ellie last minute on Thanksgiving. She was even kind enough to have her for one more day last minute, while we had guests in town! She sent pictures and was very responsive! Would absolutely use Katherine again in the future!”


“I was so fortunate to have found Anastasiia to watch our dog Axel when we traveled to Europe. We had booked a sitter who cancelled - leaving us with very little time to find another over the holiday season. We had Anastasiia was reasonably priced compared to some of the other sitters available (watch out for price gouging during the holidays). I had booked someone who was less expensive but when we did the meet and great, I saw that they were using Rover to run a kennel: 10 dogs kept in an 8x6 garage - with no one home! I took a chance on Anastasiia because she is new to Rover. When I met her in her home, I could tell right away that Axel would be in good hands! The home is charming and so was Anastasiia's partner :-). During Axel's stay he got to go to the park and play and even got to go on a hike. Anastasiia asked me if it was ok to take him and how he was in the car. The pictures of their adventure made me smile :-). I was sent lots of pictures during Axel's stay - most either playing or lounging lol Axel was in good spirits when we picked him up. I felt comfortable and confident that my family member was being given good care while we were overseas. I highly recommend.”

“Sydney was absolutely fantastic while watching Bella for five days. Sydney provided regular updates, asked helpful questions, and was incredibly accommodating and helpful when dealing with unexpected issues at the end of my trip. It was also clear that Bella really loved her. I could not say enough nice things about Sydney and would enthusiastically recommend her!”

“Denise watched my dog Paddy for over a week while he was recovering from Lyme’s. She was very friendly, kind and assuring during this period. She also communicated with me daily and sent updates and pictures. I would highly recommend.”

About: I’ve walked dogs and pet-sat for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve cared for two dogs and a cat of my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, and playtime, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines to keep pets safe and happy. I’m pretty much free most days since I only work part-time some afternoons. That means I have lots of time to hang out with pets, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just sitting with them while you’re away. I’m flexible and can usually work around your schedule, so if you need help last-minute or regularly, just let me know. I have a big house with plenty of space for pets to relax and feel comfortable. There’s a fenced yard where they can safely play and explore without any worries. My home is on a quiet dead-end street, which makes for peaceful, low-stress walks nearby, and I’m also really close to a park for longer walks and fresh air. I already keep dog food on hand for my own dog, so feeding is easy to manage. I have a friendly dog who’s used to other animals, and if your dog needs some quiet time, I can crate them safely as well. I always follow each pet’s routine and make sure they get lots of attention.
“Irene was awesome, very good vibes, a peaceful home setting & my Shih Tzu loved staying with her, playing in her big enclosed yard & going on walks with her, etc. while we were on our family cruise. My fur baby was in good hands with her & I'll definitely board her with Irene the next time we go away!”

“Carrigan is a lovely young woman with a dog whisperer touch. Puppy Sammy immediately sat at her feet as we were preparing to leave her driveway for an overnight trip — his first stay outside of our home/with a non family member EVER. I was worried that he may not take well to the situation, but he adjusted quickly, and Carrigan took him on several long walks which exercised him and tired him out. I recommend Carrigan highly!”

Clinton was such a lovely host to Beau. I don’t think Beau will be happy back with us.🤦🏻♀️ From plating his food - to getting his allergy medicine that we forgot to pack. jumping in when flights got cancelled, keeping him another night and providing his favourite fruits and veg for toppers and snacks throughout the day. A big gracias, merci and than you Clinton we will be back 🩵🤍🩷🙏🏼

Kevin was enthusiastic & held the reins well, in acting as a surrogate for me, in the care of my lil Pup, who I adore! When I picked him up from his overnight stay… he returned happy, healthy & safe & sound! I also loved the pics he sent me. If needed again in the future, Kevin would be my “go to” caretaker for my Pup!

Está muy bien, solo haría unos pequeños cambios para que suene más natural en inglés: She was amazing! My dog loved her so much that when I went to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave, which showed me that she felt safe and comfortable. Yury was also super sweet and always sent me videos and pictures. I will DEFINITELY book with her again! Thank you, Yury — we are so grateful! También podrías hacerlo un poco más cálido: She was amazing! My dog absolutely loved her. When I went to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave, which told me she felt safe, happy, and comfortable. Yury was incredibly sweet and kept me updated with videos and pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely book with her again. Thank you Yury, we are so grateful for the wonderful care you gave our dog! ❤️

I had an excellent experience with Judy. From the beginning, she was communicative, and clearly cared deeply for my pup. Judy kept me updated with messages and photos while I was away which gave me so much peace of mind. Max was happy, relaxed, and very well cared for when we returned. I also appreciate how flexible Judy was with pick up time. I would absolutely recommend Judy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be using Judy again!

I am very happy with Atilio & Silvia's family and how they care for and about my dogs. They are careful with their feeding and prescriptions - and have fun with the dogs. I got pictures and feedback daily and my dogs always looks very relaxed. I will defininately use them whenever I travel, with confidence and pleasure! Many thanks for your open hearts and caring home!

Richard and his wife are caring and took very care of my dog Paddy. My dog had a couple of great stays and we appreciate the daily updates and photos. We will continue using Richard and I highly recommend him if you are looking for a pet sitter whose house feels like home!

We had such a wonderful experience boarding our miniature dachshund, Bailey! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Jon took amazing care of her and we are really impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We could tell he was treated like family. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog boarder!

My dog Pote had the best time boarding with Nicoly and her partner. I could tell absolutely nothing was missed and he was happy with them. He got comfortable to their apartment, they made him feel just like home following his routine. She kept me up to date with messages and photos. You can tell she absolutely loves dogs and is very attentive about their quirks and personality 😊

Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!

Darline took great care of our Mini Aussie (Bentley) while we were away. She provided regular updates and photos while also making sure he was safe and having fun during his stay! It looks like he had more fun than he even has at home! Look forward to booking with Darline again.

Tina was lovely. Extremely communicative sending multiple pictures a day with videos. She immediately answered any queries. She also went out of her way to get my pup extra treats on his birthday. Lots of walks, lots of play time. She even prepared Bubbles food when he ran out. She’s an amazing sitter!

JJ boarded our kitten, Lilo, for a week and it was such a great experience! I know boarding a cat can feel a bit unconventional, but Lilo really thrives on human interaction, so this was the perfect fit for him. JJ kept us updated with pictures and videos every day, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. It was clear Lilo was well cared for and happy. We would definitely use JJ again!

Sarah was super friendly and available on short notice, which we really appreciated. We recently moved to the U.S., so our dog is still adjusting to all the new surroundings and changes. Sarah kept me updated and let me know that he was quite restless, and she really tried to understand him and respond to his needs. I’m grateful for her patience and care!
