“Brian is wonderful! Very experienced with any and all dogs. My black lab immediately loved him and listened to him with zero problems. Brian’s home is very well equipped for my dog, has a fenced in yard and tons of room to play. Brian’s other dogs are so precious and get along with everyone. He is very responsive in the app and sends lots of pupdates :) Will be booking with him again!”


“Mike is an incredible Rover and I would highly recommend him for any type of dog. Beaux had such a great time and I can’t thank you enough for watching him”


“Second time staying with them and we are just as happy as the first time! Our kitty was well taken and care of and clearly loved from all the picture updates we got. She honestly didn’t want to come home! We travel a lot and will definitely book again!”


“Crystal was amazing! She was extremely quick to communicate and gave me updates throughout Emma‘s stay with her. Emma almost didn’t wanna leave ! Would highly recommend her to anyone in the area!”



“Our boys loved their first stay with Pat! Our George is diabetic and Pat was able to take care of his needs and keep him on schedule with his medication. They were pooped when they got home and slept all day, which is a sign of a good time!”


“Liz was absolutely amazing with Muppet! Great communication and flexibility. She sent us daily messages with updates about Muppet's day, and lots of pictures. Liz was very professional, friendly, and loving with Muppet. Thank you so much, Liz!”


“This was my first time having my dog stay with someone other than a friend and I will admit I was quite nervous about giving him to a stranger so it was very important that both my boyfriend and I felt comfortable with who we chose. I usually leave him with friends and family but in this instance it was not working out so I looked into both Rover and DogVacay. After talking with a few different sitters, both my boyfriend and I felt most comfortable with Mereya. She responded very fast to all of my questions pre-booking, was very understanding of my concerns, and was very accommodating when it came to pick-up and drop-off times. Maverick stayed with her and her fiancee for about a day and a half while I traveled out of town and she texted me photo updates and videos a few times a day, which was very reassuring that my dog was having a blast. If I ever texted her, she was very quick to respond. Since he was there over the New Year, she even took a Polaroid New Year picture of him to take home, which I thought was an adorable idea. When I went to pick up my dog it became clear that he had a good time, as he ran away from me when he realized we were leaving and cemented himself to the couch. Overall, I would completely recommend her and if I ever run into a similar situation again I will definitely be sending my dog back to her and her fiancee. Maverick had a wonderful time staying with them and I would definitely feel comfortable with him going back. :)”


“Alexandria took lots of pictures and sent updates of Bailey. She made him part of the family and Bailey seemed like he had a great time! He can be shy and slow to warm up to new people so he most have felt really comfortable with Alexandria and her family.”


“DEVONA.IS.THE.BEST! My trip was stress free as I knew Dixie was in the best hands. The photos & videos Devona sent, assured me that Dixie was having a vacation as well. Devona was very flexible in drop off and pick up times & I even got a cleaner and nicer smelling dog back, then the one I dropped off. Thank you so much Devona for taking such loving care of Dixie.”


“Outstanding!!!! Emily went over the top. She is kind, responsive and just an overall amazing human being. Her space is perfect for pups and she is the most responsible person I have ever met. I’m so thankful for this app and her love for my pups. Emily trained my dogs, loved them, gave them playtime, monitored their schedule and even purchased more food for me and some slow feeder bowls to help my dogs eat slower. She cared for them and checked in with pics and videos everyday :) It was like leaving them with a family member. Highly recommend. ?”


“Sam is amazing! I was really nervous about leaving my pup with a stranger but as soon as she opened her door, all of my nerves faded. Oakley was immediately welcomed by the family and dogs. He made friends and Sam sent pictures and videos throughout his stay. This was way better than putting in a kennel and we will certainly be going back to Sam! ❤️”


“Allie was really great with my baby ms Luna. And she was very flexible with me and my time . I will be a repeat for my next trip and any future stays”


“Doug was very easy to communicate with and took great care of my two pups while I was on a quick over-nighter out of town. Will definitely use again for any future dog-care needs while traveling!”


“Diane is such a calm and caring host who has an obvious passion for animals! Luna had lots of room to play, plenty of friends, and Diane was accommodating to our house rules (crate training, manners, medicines, etc). I was thrilled to see my dog smiling upon pickup. Thanks a million Diane!”


“Alex was fantastic with my big guy Hooch! He kept me up to date about him every day. I was nervous because my big guy hadn’t stayed with anyone else before. Alex also helped us learn my big guy does fine with cats, other dogs and LOVES the pool!! Alex and his family absolutely loved on Hooch while we couldn’t!”


“Great communication with text and pictures daily she took extra special care of our pup! She made him feel loved! Would definitely book again and recommend to others!”


About: We are excited to offer a loving and happy family home environment for your pet. My three children and husband and I love all types of animals. Our home is a great setup for dogs, cats, or other pets. We have a fully fenced-in yard and a doggie door that leads to the backyard. We live about a ten minute walk from Jeanne Bellamah Community Center where we could take your dog if you want. I have several years of experience, from taking care of my own family pets growing up to volunteering every week for years at cat rescue shelters and dog rescue shelters. I was even employed for 6 months as a live-in dog and cat nanny for 3 pugs, including an elderly 21 year-old pug, and 20 kittens and cats! I have dog-sat and cat-sat and rat-sat on several occasions, volunteered at animal sanctuaries including a month-long stay at Farm Sanctuary, volunteering full-time caring for the resident animals there as well as a couple of week-long stays at Best Friends Animal Society. I really love animals! I know how it feels to wonder and worry about your fur baby at home while traveling, therefore it's very important to me that your beloved pet receives the most loving care as possible and we are committed to giving them all that they need while in our care. I normally only work 1 day a week away from home for about 6 hours, and my 3 year old daughter is always with me so your pet would be getting tons of love and attention, and then even more when everyone else gets home in the afternoon after school and work. The weekends will be totally open for all of us to have fun with your pet. We do have 2 guinea pigs so they'll stay locked in a separate room from the rest of the house while your pet is here. We have a fully fenced-in front and back yard as well as a doggy door. We will follow whatever rules you want for your dog so they are welcome to sleep on our beds with us if you want them to. We are all very active and I walk my kids to school so we can walk your dog as much as you like.

“My dog Lucy had a great stay with Celeste! I came home to a healthy and happy pup. Celeste kept me updated throughout Lucy’s stay and sent photos as well. I will definitely book again! Thank you Celeste for taking such great care of Lucy!”


“Arman is like an extension of your family. He cared for my dog Bentley like he was his own dog. Took him for several walks, visits to see my daughter, cuddles in the couch and even a grooming appointment. He was SO extremely helpful. I would highly recommend Arman to anyone who needs pet sitting or care. 5 Stars!”


“Lorenzo was excellent at communicating and was fast to respond to messages. We had arranged a “meet & greet”, but Lorenzo ended up not being there. His girlfriend, however, was home and very helpful. My dog seemed happy and healthy at the end of his stay.”
