“BROOKE is Very kind, fun loving, flexible and a true dog lover. Our family was lucky to find her for the weekend. Our dog didn’t want to leave when we arrived to pick her up. She has an adorable puppy who is full of fun energy!”
“Liz & Rodrigo are incredible people, with an incredible family full of love to give! We were a bit nervous having someone board our newly adopted rescue Beagle, but they did an amazing job! They sent so many updates and photos while I was gone, I never once had to worry how they were doing! They were both accommodating of both our pup’s needs and I can tell our pups would love to go back whenever we need a sitter!”
“Christina was great! She sent me a bunch of photos each day and took Leo on multiple walks daily! He was tired when I picked him up and that takes a lot to do. Will absolutely book again”
“Jessica and her family were amazing! They took wonderful care of our dogs. I’m definitely using her again! We received pics daily and she is awesome with communication. Thanks again!!”
“Thais and Nathalie were lifesavers when I had to scramble at the last minute to find care for my girl for a long trip. When I dropped my anxious pup off with Thais, my very shy pup warmed up immediately. Thais was so understanding when I was nervous as this was my first time using Rover. I got lots of pics showing my pup cuddling in bed so I was happy she had people and a place where she felt comfortable. They were great and I would definitely ask them to watch my pup again.”
“Julie was absolutely wonderful! Our dog can be quite anxious, but we could tell by his demeanor when he came home that Julie made him feel very comfortable and cared for! We'd love to have Dodge stay with Julie again, and we are very grateful for the updates and great care Dodge received!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time with Marie! He came home very tired from his week of walks, snuggles, and fun. She sent lots of updates throughout the week! We will definitely book with Marie again. Thank you for taking care of our Bernie!”
“Patti was so great! She took such good care of Gus, I will 100% use her as a sitter again. You can tell she’s a real dog person and cares about the dogs she’s watching. She communicated with photos and updates daily. And of course we appreciate the hikes! Thanks Patti!”
“My dog was so excited to go back to Todd’s for an overnight stay. He had the best time whenever he goes there, gets plenty of walks, lots of attention, and comes home such a happy camper. Todd is a trusted sitter for us and I will continue to book with him whenever I need somewhere for my dog to stay!”
“Phydeau stayed for two nights. He’s old and had much medical care involved in his stay including pills and ear care which was all attended to so well. He came home happy and well cared for. He loves going to Michael’s!”
“Frodo had a great stay- enjoyed playing with the hosts' dogs, I got great pictures and video updates, easy to communicate with. Would absolutely use again.”
“Juno had a great time at Betsy's! She loved playing with the other dogs and Betsy's family. The fenced in yard gave a feeling of security, would definitely return!!! We loved getting updates and pictures from Betsy!!”
“Kiara gave amazing and consistent updates about Navi throughout the stay. We could really tell that our baby felt comfortable and safe in Kiara's care. Definitely will book again in the future!”
“Jing was highly responsive and took great care of Baks. Communication was thoughtful and prompt. She sent tons of pictures and updates which put my mind to ease. I was able to pick Baks up early with no issue and was very happy to see him early. Baks stayed with Jing for 4 nights while I was out of town.”
“Marcia is terrific! She helped us with a last minute emergency boarding request and provided extraordinary loving care for our 7 year old boxer. Cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“It's always hard to leave your dog behind while on vacation but I instantly felt as ease as soon as I dropped my baby boi off. He had an amazing time and the daily photos and updates were much appreciated. And because he was so well taken care of, I could fully enjoy my trip. I highly recommend.”

Julia is AMAZING! She took wonderful care of my cat Spike. She sent so many pictures and kept me up to date on what he was doing throughout their stay together. He took right to her which only goes to show her kind spirit. I would definitely book with Julia again! 10/10 experience.
We were very please with the services provided for our girls on October 7th by Natasha & Jonathan. The girls seemed very happy when we pick them up. The followup text messages with pics made our visit to the area more comfortable and relaxed. Thanks so much for caring for our pups!
Natali has a quiet confidence about her, and she relates to dogs in a respectful way that makes sense to me. She was very responsive to my questions, and sent me lots of updates and photos over the weekend. I felt really comfortable leaving my dog with her and I will definitely use her again.
Jennifer was wonderful to our aging dog who has terrible separation anxiety. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing she was home with her all day. She provided several walks per day, and plenty of comfortable places for her to nap. My dog just helped herself to a basket filled with toys. She seemed very comfortable there. Jennifer dispensed eye medicine daily and sent us plenty of updates and photos. Highly recommend.
We’ve used Valeri multiple times now, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! Every time we leave our dog with her, we have complete peace of mind knowing she’s in such caring and capable hands. Our dog absolutely loves going there and feels right at home from the moment she arrives. She and Valeri's dog, Lexi, get along so well and have an endless amount of fun playing together. Valeri is fantastic with communication, sending daily updates and pictures that always make us smile while we’re away. During our most recent stay, our dog happened to be going through one of her picky eating phases. Valeri was incredibly patient and thoughtful, trying different approaches to encourage her to eat and making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. In addition to all the playtime with Lexi, Valeri took our dog on walks, gave her lots of attention, and was very accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up schedule. It’s such a relief to have found someone we trust completely. Our dog is always happy, well cared for, and genuinely excited to go back. We will definitely book with Valeri again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter!
Paloma is absolutely fantastic, I wish I had found her sooner. I left my girl with her for a weekend so I could go away. Her home is perfect for any pet to live their best life. She was so attentive and caring. I was nervous about the fireworks scaring my girl and Paloma was careful to make sure she was as comfortable as possible which put this crazy dog moms heart at ease. Will definitely use her in the future.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
