“Jessica was an amazing dogsitter for our pup who stayed with her for a full week. Jessica communicated with us often while our dog was with her and cared for him as if he was her own dog. It's clear she has a love for dogs and a lot of experience caring for them. Jessica's care gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were on vacation. I would fully recommend Jessica without any reservations. ★★★★★”
“Isabella was so great with CC! She was great to communicate with, pick up and drop off was super easy, and I got back a very tired dog! I would love to have CC stay with her again.”
“Philip was so good with our first doggy (1 yr old puppy) and his care was excellent with our second (3yr old choc lab). Steve had lovely park walks, mental stimulation and came back very happy doggie. Highly recommend!”
“Devan was excellent with Pepper, and was extremely meticulous in his communication. We received constant text and photo updates during his stay and that’s one of the most important qualities when caring for a pet.”
“Michelle was fantastic with our Aussie Tyler! Tyler got along great with her dog Valkyrie, and she sent us lots of updates. When our flights got severely delayed on the way home, Michelle was super flexible and kept Tyler for an extra night!”
“My dog really enjoys his stay with Yingqi. Yingqi took good care of Domo. She helped us walk Domo and shared lots of cute photos with us. She is also very responsive with questions and tried her best to adapt to our schedules. She even helped Domo clip his nail and have Domo celebrate the birthday together with her puppies. I would definitely recommend Yingqi to all dog parents who are looking for caring and responsible caregivers!”
“Lorena and her husband Andreas were so great! They took lots of photos and videos of Izzy Jean which helped us while being away, knowing she was having a good time and being well cared for. I would highly recommend them for your sitting needs. Kim”
“Eric and his family did an amazing job taking care of our fun-loving pup, Aster! Eric sent lots of beautiful photos and kept us up to date with how she was doing, always checked in with questions, and communicated very well with us when she was feeling sick one day of her visit. It was such a relief to know she was in such good hands during our two long weeks away.”
“This was our first time using Rover to find a pet sitter. Ponyo took such good care of our pooch. She sent lots of pics and made our Dixie feel right at home.”
“Jerica is great! We found her on Rover 3 weeks before our 8-day trip when our regular dog sitter would not be available. I was nervous leaving Archie with a new sitter at first, but she took great care of Archie. Jerica works from home. She has a yard and an adorable corgi so our beagle had someone to play with. Jerica took Archie on walks with her corgi and let Archie snuggle with her at night. It worked out great. She kept us updated every day and sent us lots of photos. We would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Another awesome stay! It is so comforting to know that your furry family member (in our case, our dog) is in good hands and is going to be well cared for - and have a fun time. We highly recommend”
“Peter was the best dog sitter I could have found for my pup. Luke is 14 yo, so leaving him with someone isn’t always easy. Peter made the whole process incredibly smooth and friendly, and he made Luke feel right at home. He even took him on little adventures with Nova, while being very mindful of Luke’s needs and limits. Not only did he make Luke feel like part of his pack, but he also gave me great peace of mind with daily updates and photos where I could clearly see that Luke (even though he probably missed me) couldn’t have been in better hands. I’m especially grateful to Peter because when my return travel plans got complicated and the schedule didn’t quite line up, he was extremely flexible and helped me so much, making sure Luke got home safe and sound. Without a doubt, he will be my go-to person to take care of Luke the next time I have to travel.”
“She was lovely and flexible! My dog had never been boarded before and it went beautifully. Then, when my flight got canceled she was willing to extend his stay.”
“We left our 2 yr old lab puppy - Butter with Alexa. Alexa was considerate about needs of Butter as a young and energetic puppy and she made sure her house was safe for Butter. While staying with Alexa, Butter went on new adventures, made new dog and cat friends and a wonderful time staying home and playing with her daughter. Thanks Alexa for taking good care of Butter.”
“Ellie was a fantastic host to our husky Pepper. She is extremely attentive and made sure that Pepper got enough daily exercise and also plenty of snuggles during their downtime. We love that Pepper gets along so well with Ellie’s sweet dog Bear. Overall our dog had a great time and would absolutely book with Ellie in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Ningning is a great sitter, and her own dog, Chase, is a sweetie. She provided lots of walks and playtime for our active dog, Murphy, and accommodated Murphy’s schedule even though it didn’t align with her usual one. Chase was a wonderful companion to Murphy as well! She sent lots of pictures and videos of their activities and the dogs playing together. 10/10!!”

Emily was excellent with our dog and great to work with. Her excellent communication skills made us feel at ease throughout her time with her. She appeared knowledgeable and genuinely wanted to ensure her comfort at all times. As a senior dog, her presence was reassuring, and it gave us peace of mind knowing that she was in capable hands. I highly recommend Emily and would definitely book her again for future stays. .
Colton did a great job caring for my dog. He was very communicative and proactive with updates. His dog, Tito, was so sweet to my dog, who is typically shy with new dogs, and helped her feel right at home! I’m always nervous leaving her around 4th of July with the fireworks, but I felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands. Will definitely reach out to Colton again for his help in the future!
Margaret was such a wonderful pet- sitter for our dog. He felt immediately safe at her house, and I loved that she and her partner were home with him consistently. Margaret was attentive and had great communication, sending pics of Indy regularaly. We will definitely ask her to watch him again!
Amazing! I booked a last minute stay over Fourth of July weekend and Mana was so accommodating. She squeezed in a pre stay introduction for the dogs, then took amazing care of Obi over the three days. I got so many photos (and a video) and she even refilled my poop bag dispenser from her own stash when ours ran out and sent obi home with a little extra treat. Outstanding sitter, would book again without hesitation.
Michelle was super communicative with us and great with our dog, Scooby. I felt very comfortable leaving Scooby in such knowledgeable and considerate hands. We booked over a holiday weekend and Michelle was very accommodating and kept us updated with pictures and recaps. Would definitely book again!
Fabulous folks all around. We appreciated the communication & photos while on vacation. Thule seemed to have had a lovely time staying with Jackie & James. We were out of town for about an entire week. We booked with them about a month in advanced & had a little meet and great to ensure compatibility across the board. Grateful for these two. Will book again soon.
Junoa was absolutely amazing with our dog, Luna! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. Junoa kept us updated throughout our trip with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Luna had an incredible time and became great friends with Junoa's dog, Diablo. It was obvious from all the photos and updates that she was getting plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. We could tell Luna felt right at home. We are so grateful to have found Junoa and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. If you're looking for someone who truly cares for your dog as if they were her own, I highly recommend Junoa!
