“Megan and her family were great! Megan sent me updates throughout the weekend to let me know how things were going. When Remy got dirty from playing outside she gave her bath. Remy came home tired and happy!”

“Great family. I felt very confident leaving my dog, Apollo with them for 5 days. Carrie kept me updated with videos & pictures and his overall behavior. So I knew he was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend this wonderful family. Apollo had a great time.”

I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available on weekends and weeks day. My apartment has no other pet right now! And All the animals like me, and I have so many years experience with pet. I can easily get along with good relationships with your pets.
“I feel so lucky to have found Julie & Maria!! My two dogs Waffles and Wrigley stayed with them for a week and were so well taken care of. It really made me feel at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We set up a meet & greet shortly before the intended stay where I was given a tour of the home and got to meet the family. Julie kept me updated with photos and videos during the stay. I never had a moment of worry while they were with her & Maria! I think the dogs had a better vacation than we did with all the love and attention Julie & Maria gave them. I will definitely book with them again for future trips!”

“Diana was very sweet and treated our dog as if it was her own! She made sure to stay with him and watch him every time he wanted to be in the backyard and made sure he felt safe even though he is an anxious dog. I was nervous leaving my dog in someone else’s care for the first time but she sent photo and video updates that made me feel a lot better! Diana is amazing and I highly recommend booking her!”

“Laura was great! Her house is a perfect place for any dog to stay. Laura kept us updated and was flexible on pick up timing. Will definitely be using again when we take our next vacation!”

“Sara took the most incredible care of our pup. We got tons of great pictures of him daily and she provided wonderful updates. We even left with the cutest custom report card on his stay. I would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who is looking for a great place for their dog!! Thank you Sara and Zoe!”

“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”

You can expect plenty of photo updates, quick communication, and one very happy pet upon your return!
“Jae was amazing with our goldendoodle, Theodore! She is very responsive, she was attentive of my dogs behaviors, and she kept us updated every day! Our doodle is very nervous and wary around other dogs but Sugar, Jae’s Bouvier des Flandres, is a very calm and non-reactive dog which is perfect for Theodore’s behavior. It didn’t even take more than a night for them to become best friends! Moose, Jae’s older chihuahua, will also mind her own business and keep to her little house! Jae even took the time to groom Theodore before we picked him up! Absolutely a great experience for my dog and I, I would recommend Jae to others!”


“Max came through in last minute pinch! We had to find a trusting care taker for our dog because our venue event informed us the same day, only service dogs. I was able enjoy the event because Max gave us updates with videos and pics. My dog was returned with cuddles and seemed at peace and relaxed. I truly appreciate Max and highly recommend him.”


“Sunny took great care of our dog who can be quite shy with new people. Ralphie was in great hands and it really allowed us to enjoy our trip. She was very responsive and gave detailed updates. Ralphie will for sure be back!!”

“We have been continuously pleased with our experience with Monique and her family. Our dog gets plenty of exercise, cuddles, and love with them and always comes home happy and tired in the best way. Monique is flexible and SUPER communicative — constantly sending updates and photos without me even having to ask. Look no further for a great dog sitter :)”

“Arriyanna was exceptional with my Granddog, Prince. She weened him off some crap food my son was feeding him and helped him transition to better, much healthy food I brought to her. She bathed him, nurtured him and showed him love. She gave me regular updates and sent photos. I wish she could adopt him, I think she would provide him the much needed attention he deserves. I would recommend her to anyone for their dog. She was so good with him!”
“These kind folks took in my dog at the very last moment when my original dog sitter canceled on me the day before my trip. They sent photos and messages regularly to update me on my dog’s well being. They also took wonderful care of his health needs. This put me at ease. Their own dog was super sweet to my dog. I returned to find my dog healthy and happy. Thank you!”

“Marlo is outstanding!! I have boarded my dog with her multiple times and Marlo has always provided the highest quality of care and attention. She is very responsive, great with accommodating my dog’s personality, and sends lots of updates and pictures. She is my preferred dog sitter in the Long Beach area.”

“Denise was awesome. She was super flexible with timing, very thorough and thoughtful in our meet and greet, and sent great updates throughout the day! Nora came back happy and relaxed.”

“Rachel is the best! And our boy LOVES it there, which is so reassuring because he gets extreme separation anxiety, which in turn gives us extreme anxiety. It was our first time being apart from Paco since we adopted him and Rachel knew exactly what to do to put us all at ease. She sends pictures and updates. And there are other dogs there to play with. We dropped him off again today for daycare and he couldn't wait to get inside. I am so glad we found Rachel...she is an A+++ dog sitter”

Kim and Matt were great to Jellybean and provided a lot of pictures and updates! Unfortunately Jellybean did not handle being in a new environment well, but it was no fault of Kim and Matt. They continued to provide a lot of walks, attention, and great care to Jellybean despite her unexpected behavior. I would highly recommend Kim and Matt to anyone looking for highly attentive and caring sitters! They are truly the nicest family and I feel absolutely terrible about Jellybean’s unexpected behavior with them. They handled her extremely well and I wish them the best of luck in their dog-sitting endeavors because they’re such wonderful people!

Shannon took care of our nearly 14-year-old chihuahua for a week while we were away on our babymoon, and I truly could not have asked for a better sitter. Our little guy requires lifelong medication twice a day and occasionally experiences seizure symptoms, so finding someone we could fully trust was incredibly important to us. Shannon was absolutely amazing. She stayed perfectly on schedule with his medications, took such great care of his feeding routine, and was very accommodating to all of our requests. She also sent us lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What impressed me most was how naturally she understood our chihuahua’s personality and needs almost immediately, without us having to explain much at all. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable and loved. I’m so grateful we found Shannon, and she will absolutely be our go-to sitter in the future. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our precious little guy.💕 We were truly able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in such good hands.

She took such amazing care of my dog for 5 days, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease and when we picked him up, he was so happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. You can tell she genuinely cares and treats the dogs like her own. I’m so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be using her again. This was my first experience with Rover, and leaving my puppy. Highly, highly recommend!

Shona is so great with our pup, Lucy. She is communicative with us and is always taking Lucy for walks and to the park. Lucy also loves her little pup, Fig, who is such a sweetheart. We are grateful to have someone as loving and trustworthy as Shona and we know Lucy enjoys her getaways there as well!

I have left my sweet dogs at Jon’s for years. He and his wife are dog whisperers. They know dogs. They got my tiny very fearful 7 pound dog comfortable with other dogs. That’s something I had been trying to do forever. When I pull up to their house my dogs start getting excited and wagging their tails. They run right up to his door and scratch to get in! I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Kayla watched my dog for an extended stay recently and was amazing. She did a fantastic job of sending me updates throughout my pups stay with lots of pictures included; I could tell from the photos that he settled right in and was very comfortable with her. I will definitely be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
