We did a pre meet up and when I went to drop him off on he actual weekend, he ran right up to the door excited. I got frequent updates on how he was doing and pick was flexible after a flight delay! Our dog is not food motivated and she would add a couple drops of broth to his bowl to make sure he got some food. I appreciate the extra attention to his care! We will def use Pamela again for future sitting.”

“Marina was wonderful. I have a slight anxious Annie of a dog and she knew exactly how to treat her and introduce her to the other dogs without feeling overwhelmed. Marina was very communicative which I love and i wasnt worried at all that my dog wasn't having the best time. Thank you, we'll see you next time!”
“Tracy was fantastic with our pugs when we were out of town for the holidays! She was responsive, flexible, and our pups had a great time.

I definitely recommend Tracy and we plan on using her in the future ? THANK YOU!!”
“This was our first time using Rover. Veronica was great to work with and made the process really easy. She and her family showed lots of love for my dog and gave me daily updates with pictures and how he was doing. I will definitely use her again.”
“I’m a first time user of the app and having some stranger care for my babies was nerve wrecking not to mention that one of my dogs was having skin allergies. I’m extremely thankful for finding Jackie while visiting Arizona for a conference. Jackie eased my worries and my two dogs felt at home with her and her sweet dog Bella. Jackie provided me daily updates with photos and texts which eased my anxieties. She also provided my dog with her medication and supplements to her food. They stayed with her for four days and when I picked them up, I felt a little jealous because they didn’t seem to want to leave. I look forward for coming back and leaving my babies under her care again. Thank you...thank yo,! thank you, Give Jackie a shot you won’t regret it, unless your dog decides not to leave. Jackie as her new owner??????”
“Rachael and her husband treated Zumi as their own! She had such a great time and was tuckered out when she got home. Their yard was a great hit with my pup. The communication was top notch. She will be back”
“Really sweet family and just overall perfect experience for both me and my pup. Before boarding: Alani and her families invited us to do meet-and-greet, asked questions about my dog’s usual routines, sent information about other two dogs mine will be staying with ahead of time. During the stay: Alani sent photos and updates daily. Informed me if anything was unusual. They took her to a dog park when the weather got cooler. Pick-up: They were very accommodating while my flight schedules changed. Alani gave me an update on how my dog stay went, anything she noticed, etc. My dog seemed well-played and happy. I felt like they understood how stressful and nervous it can be to part with a pup for extended period, and did everything to help. Alani and her family will always be my first choice to sit my pup going forward. Thank you.”
“I absolutely love Julia and her family for taking care of my Chubz .. she was so sweet when my flt was delayed to keep him past the pickup time with no problem 😊 I really appreciate her”
“Here’s a polished review for Kelly: Kelly was an amazing dog sitter! She was reliable, kept me updated throughout the day, and showed so much kindness and playfulness with my puppy, Reign. It was clear she genuinely cared and made sure Reign was happy and comfortable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Alex truly treats my dogs as her own. She keeps me updated with pictures and reports on how they’ve been doing. She goes above and beyond to help suggest toys, even ones not to buy cause my pup destroyed hers. We have been repeat clients and is our number one pick when needing to board our pups.”

About: Hi! I'm Mckenna, a junior at Arizona State University studying Sports Business. When I'm not in class, playing on ASU's club soccer team, or working at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, I love spending time with animals and being active. I've been around pets my whole life and have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I've looked after friends' and family's cats, making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers their own space, I'm happy to care for them at their comfort level. I know that every cat has their own personality and routine, so I'll always follow your instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and litter box care to playtime, medication, and plenty of attention (if they want it!). As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time for drop-in visits and pet sitting. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands, so I'll send photo updates and keep you informed every step of the way. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away, giving you peace of mind until you're back home. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your feline friend!
“Bridget was fantastic with Puck over almost two weeks. He is not an easy cat — he actually got her badly enough that she had to go treat it — and she came right back the next day with a plan and kept going without ever making it my problem. She caught that his water fountain wasn't working, put out backup bowls, fixed the camera, and sent updates and videos the whole time. Genuinely above and beyond. Would book again without hesitating.”
“Mink was in wonderful hands with Adam and Fang! They were very patient, welcoming hosts and it looked like all 3 of them had a wonderful time together. Adam sent us multiple videos every day which we really appreciated. Leaving Mink during trips is never easy, but we felt confident he was well cared for at Adam's house. Thank you Adam and Fang!”
“I recently hired Valerie as a cat sitter while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with her service. Right from our first conversation, it was clear that Valerie is a true cat lover who knows how to interact with and take care of them. This was my first time leaving my cat behind, and Valerie understood exactly what worried pet owners like me want to see and hear to ease our anxiety. She kept me updated regularly and made me feel assured about my cat's well-being. Valerie's responsiveness was impressive. It was incredibly easy to reach her and get a quick response whenever I had any questions or concerns. Her prompt and reliable communication made the whole process smooth and hassle-free. Based on my experience, I will definitely be using Valerie's services again in the future. Her genuine love for cats and her ability to provide exceptional care make her the go-to cat sitter. I'm grateful to have found someone so reliable and caring to look after my furry friend. If you're in need of a cat sitter who truly understands cats, knows how to alleviate your worries, and communicates effectively, I highly recommend Valerie. Your cat will be in great hands, giving you peace of mind during your time away.”

About: As a physician assistant and lifelong pet owner, I bring a responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring approach to pet sitting. I just graduated with my masters degree and will be starting my first PA position soon, which means I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day to give your pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’ve never lived in a home without cats or dogs, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a Mini Australian Shepherd and a Weimaraner who absolutely love to play and would be happy to have some furry friends around. I have a large, pet-friendly home and live in an area that makes it easy for me to travel to your home or welcome dogs into mine. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy making sure pets are happy, stimulated, and well cared for—not just fed and let outside. I love finding ways to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged, including toys and activities like foraging mats and enrichment games. As a fellow pet owner, I completely understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I take that trust seriously. I’m a strong communicator and will keep you updated with plenty of pictures, messages, and whatever information helps you feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe, loved, and having a great time. Hi there, my name is Andrea! I just graduated with my master’s degree and have a little bit of time before I start my first job. I have a very flexible schedule and a passion for taking care of pets.

For dogs in my home: I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and mental enrichment throughout the day. I have a Mini Australian Shepherd and a Weimaraner who love to play, so I’m comfortable with energetic dogs and enjoy giving them opportunities for both physical and mental stimulation. I also use enrichment toys and activities, such as foraging mats, to keep pets engaged. I’m home most of the day, so pets receive lots of companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. In your home: I do my best to keep your pets’ routines as close to normal as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter care, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’m respectful of your home and will make sure everything is clean and secure when I leave. For both dogs and cats, I believe good communication is an important part of pet sitting. I’ll send regular updates and plenty of photos so you know how your pets are doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.
About: Hey there, my name is Estefany. I have a full time job and only work three days a week so I love to check on pets on my days off. Due to a schedule that changes every week, I ask that requests are made at least a week in advance so we can schedule a meet and greet and have everything ready before the day of the first visit. Your pet’s safety is my upmost priority! I have worked with many animals and many different personalities. I do require meet and greets for dogs but with cats I’m a little more flexible when needed. My prices for boarding and house sitting are higher because I don’t typically offer them but please ask about house sitting if you don’t need me to stay overnight and I can bring the price down! For boarding, a doggy day care booking prior is required so please make sure you are requesting with time. I have two dogs at home and need to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone before proceeding! This is something I’ve been doing for about 3 years so I do take it very seriously and love what I do!

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I love being active with my dog—we’re always going on walks, hikes, exploring outside, or spending time at the lake. But we definitely love our chill days too. I’m patient, attentive, and pretty flexible when it comes to different personalities and routines. Whether your pet loves playing and being active or would rather relax and have their own space, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. I’m currently home full-time, which means I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care. I also have my own fenced-in front yard and a large grassy area right outside for potty breaks, walks, and outdoor time. I’ll always keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos so you can see how your pet is doing. 🐾 I do pet sitting full-time, so I’m able to provide lots of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, including availability for many last-minute bookings. I focus on creating a calm, structured, and stress-free environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I pay close attention to body language, routines, and individual needs to help every pet feel secure while they’re away from home. I can easily separate pets when needed and always prioritize safe introductions, supervision, and a clean environment. I also have a fully fenced in backyard.
About: Your dog will be treated like family while staying in our home. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. One thing that sets my care apart is that I only accept one family's booking at a time. While I may care for multiple dogs from the same household, I do not mix dogs from different families. This allows me to provide more individualized attention, maintain a calm environment, and ensure your dog feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, including senior dogs and dogs requiring oral or injectable medications. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm place to relax, I tailor their stay to what makes them most comfortable. While we live in an apartment, your dog will receive multiple daily walks, exercise, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and make sure dogs in my care get the physical activity and enrichment they need. My son and I love spending time with dogs, and Rover has become a wonderful way for us to share that love while helping pet parents feel confident their pets are being cared for. Since we do not currently have pets of our own, visiting dogs receive lots of individualized attention during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be stressful, so I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout their visit. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. Before booking, I always encourage a meet-and-greet so we can make sure we're a great fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and are not left alone for extended periods. Dogs receive multiple daily walks and exercise tailored to their age, energy level, and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pet while you're away. Because I only accept one family's pets at a time, I am able to focus on providing individualized care and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment for each guest. I only accept one family’s pets at a time, creating a calm, safe environment where each pet receives personalized attention, comfort, and loving care.

About: I’ve been around and caring for pets for as long as I can remember. I have 6 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m responsible, patient, and treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m currently a full-time college student, so my schedule is mostly based around my classes. I have plenty of free time outside of class and am available for pet sitting, walks, and check-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I have experience caring for pets and will follow your routine, instructions, and any special needs closely. I also have cats of my own that I absolutely love!
About: I grew up with a brindle boxer who was truly part of my family, and losing her a couple years ago was one of the hardest things I’ve gone through. Since then, I’ve been fostering dogs through the Humane Society, everything from shy rescues to energetic puppies. Ive fostered dogs that had kennel cough to dogs that needed to gain weight after being rescued from horrible conditions. Fostering taught me how to handle different personalities, build trust with nervous dogs, and give each pet the patience and love they need. Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I bring that same level of attention and compassion to every pet I watch. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I’m available most days and fully flexible, I'm pursuing a degree and have class Tuesday and Thursday from 9am–12pm, but I’m available the rest of the day and all other days of the week. This gives me a very flexible schedule for walks, drop‑ins, and house sitting. I plan my day around pet care, so your dog always gets consistent attention, timely visits, and plenty of love. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I follow all instructions exactly, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your dog is never put in an unsafe situation. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with foster dogs, so I know how to handle different personalities and energy levels. I always double‑check leashes, harnesses, and feeding routines, and I keep a close eye on your pet during every visit. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.
“Taylor was able to cover a few days of walks for me while my regular rover was out of town. She checked in with me and made sure I knew when she was on her way to take care of my dog, which I really appreciated. She was a great help.”
“Kathleen’s communication was great, she was timely and sent wonderful pictures from the walk! She was prompt in responding to our walk request and very kind! Would definitely use Kathleen again!”
About: I know how scary it is to entrust others with your pets, especially if you are like me and have an anxious/reactive pet. I volunteer with a local shelter, and they've taught me so much when it comes to minimizing stress in animals as much as possible. I will treat your pets like I treat my own, with a focus on comfort, reducing stress, and respecting boundaries in what your pet might find to be a new or scary situation. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule, so any time not spent with my own pets or volunteering at the animal shelter I can dedicate to caring for your pet! I have a fenced yard, dog crates, and even a dedicated "pet room" in my home. I also like to use the vertical space for my cats and give them lots of shelving and perches for them to climb and view the windows.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kristen was amazing with Sterling! She was kind, communicative, and totally in tune with his quirks. I loved getting photo updates, and it was clear she treated him like her own. He came back happy and relaxed. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!”

I am well versed in dog walking, stopping in to check on pups, and overnight stays. While I am most experienced in smaller to medium sized dogs I have watched over all types of breeds and I am confident in taking care of any dog! I currently have a part time job that only takes up about 6-7 hours a week. I am extremely flexible and available early mornings and late nights. Pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I make sure to create a clean, safe, and comfortable environment to make sure your dog feels at home. I am extremely attentive and take care instructions very seriously.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. My grandmother has trained golden retrievers year after year in things like search and rescue, and agility ever since I can remember.

About: I have helped take care of my own dogs since I was about 14 in any way I can. I am naturally drawn to animals and have a passion for helping them. I am on the pursuit to become a Clinical Psychologist. I love to give those who do not have a voice the treatment they deserve. I hope I can provide that warmth and comfort to your family! I am currently in college but have plenty of time outside of my classes. I am flexible with what people may need. I can accommodate certain situations if needed. I do not have home visits. My two dogs are both regularly bathed, fed and loved. They have been trained in the past but not by myself.
About: There is something sooo special about cats and dogs. I try and read their minds and it’s fun. I’m super affectionate but also understand that each one of them are different and deserve the connection they require to be happy and to feel supported -and entertained. I can manage a flexible schedule. I’m flexible in general. I can take care of other duties needed while I’m caring for your home and pets. Weekends I’d be primarily be stationed at the client’s home and during the week, it depends on the day/s. I am a quiet person who likes to read, write and create. Being around animals does something for my soul and is why I am looking for pets to care for. I will accommodate what is needed for you to be able to continue the love and support your pets get from you while you are away.
About: I have been caring for dogs since my sophomore year of high school, gaining experience with everything from training energetic puppies to supporting the unique needs of senior dogs. I am Pet CPR certified, comfortable administering medications, and skilled at providing safe, attentive, and loving care tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I am currently in school and only have in-person classes Monday through Wednesday. This gives me plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the rest of the week, including weekends, to dedicate time to caring for pets and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need. I live in a dog-friendly apartment where pets are welcome and safe, and I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in my home. When visiting clients’ homes, I am always respectful of their space and follow their routines closely. I’m also happy to accommodate extra requests, like watering plants or bringing in mail, to help give peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I love animals so much! I grew up around BIG dogs, smol dogs, cats, and birds. I've taken care of dogs of all types since I was a kid and I have been the go-to sitter/walker/drop in and hangout guy when my family or friends are out of town or stuck at the office late. I had a beautiful pitbull named, Artemis, who sadly passed away from cancer. She was my everything. Now, I have a bearded dragon named, Vermithor. I would take care of your animal(s) as if they were my own. I am energetic, playful, attentive, patient, and caring. I would treat you, your house, and your animals with the upmost respect. ***Rover does not have an option for other animals besides cats and dogs for care giving, so if you would like my assistance with any scaley, fishy, or winged family members then please message me to let me know what kind of family member you have and I will gladly help out<3 We would just have to use Zelle*** I am an Army Veteran working on getting my 2nd Associates Degree. Right now I am on summer break so that means my availability is wide open! If you have a fenced yard, I would let them out and be outside with them until they were done. If you don't have a yard, I would put their harness and leash on them so that we could stroll around outside. If they have a kennel, I would let them out and put them back in. If you have multiple dogs, I also have experience with feeding them in different rooms so that they do not fight over their food (if your dogs are like that). I am excellent at following any instructions left for me.
About: Hi! I'm Mckenna, a junior at Arizona State University studying Sports Business. When I'm not in class, playing on ASU's club soccer team, or working at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, I love spending time outside—and I think every walk is better with a dog by your side! I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I taught my childhood dog several tricks and would take him on daily walks whenever I was home. Over the years, I've also cared for many friends' and family's dogs and cats, giving me experience with pets of different personalities and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, quick potty breaks, a leisurely stroll, or an outdoor adventure, I'm happy to match their pace and routine. I know every pet is different, so I'll always follow your instructions carefully to make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. I'm also comfortable administering medication if needed. I currently offer dog walking and occasional pet sitting. While I don't have much experience with senior dogs yet, I'm more than happy to care for them and will carefully follow any instructions to make sure they get the attention and support they need. As a busy college student, I enjoy having something active and rewarding to break up my routine, and spending time with animals is the perfect way to do that. I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention during our time together, and you can always expect photo updates so you know they're having a great time! I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! As a junior at Arizona State University, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for pets. I only have classes Monday through Wednesday, work two to three evening a week at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, and practice with ASU's club soccer team a few times a week. This leaves me with lots of availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and occasional pet sitting. I enjoy getting outside and staying active, so spending time with pets fits perfectly into my weekly routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. When caring for pets in your home, I'll treat both your pet and your home with respect, making sure everything is secure before I leave. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the attention and care they deserve.
About: My experience caring for family pets began at 16 years old. A noteworthy pet sitting involved caring for a household with one female dog, her six newly born puppies, two adolescent dogs, and a senior dog for a week and a half. I believe this highs shows my ability to handle diverse pet household needs. Also, I have gained some experience in pet care for cats since October 2023. I work 12-hour shifts from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and every other Wednesday. I am available every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, along with every other Wednesday. I can inform you if I have that week's Wednesday off or not when you send your request. As a pet owner of a dog and a cat, I understand that each pet requires a unique approach to their daily habits and needs. I will stand by your instructions for the care of your pet(s), with the consideration I expect when others care for my own pets when I'm away. I hold no judgment over their care needs.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager! I would dog sit for my cousin every weekend and I absolutely loved it. Dogs have been family to me for a really long time. I would love to have the honor to care for your dog and consider them family while they are under my care! I am currently unemployed, so I have literally all day to care for your dog! I work out in the morning (typically between 10 and 11am), so that is the only time when scheduling may become an issue for me. I also am looking into purchasing my own dog, so the more I can care for yours, the more I can get an understanding of the full responsibility that comes with dog ownership. I have a very spacious apartment that your dog will enjoy should they need to stay with me. I have dog sat in my apartment before and there is plenty of room to play small games of catch and tug of war!! If crating is necessary, I have ample amount of space for a crate.
“Angel is the best! He Is very responsible and cares a lot for our puppy! He loves to play and spend time with him like he’s his own dog. His compassion and education about animals Will help him become a great VET in the future. We are lucky to have Angel as our repeat sister!”
About: it's a calling for me. after losing my best friend and pet soul mate(my rescue dog rocker) of 10.5 years to cancer a few months ago...that deep soul gutting grief made me me realize how much i love dogs (animals) and want to help and care for them ,with the same loving,caring, hand and heart i did/would my own and my families,while helping others by putting their minds at ease, knowing their pet and home are in excellent ,trustworthy, loving care. i am able to set my own work schedule currently and i tailor it to my clients sitting needs. I don't set my work schedule until i see what your sitting needs are, so there are no issues. i love and care for your pets in your home with the same love and care i would my own pets in my own home or a family members. i adhere strictly to your instructions and schedules when it comes to feedings, medications, walks, etc. i try to make their time in my care during your absence as routine as possible to alleviate or prevent any anxiety they may be experiencing by their parents not being home.
About: I bring dependable care, great energy, and real attention to detail! I follow every instruction carefully while making sure your pets feel loved, safe, and comfortable, as I've always been surrounded by pets since I was 6! I'll be taking a gap year from college, especially now that finals are over, so that means I have plenty of free time while right now I have a weekend job that's only been evening shifts. I'm looking to do 40+ hours a week! Right now, I have a pet of my own in my own place, and she's a cute awkward Black Kitty. It's very easy for me to give her affection and to keep a routine to make sure her water and food bowl is always full, because she gets super anxious when it's empty. As for caring for other pets, it's always easy for me to follow set of rules for the owner, alongside giving time and affection, especially when it comes to a very strict diet.
About: I’ve had all types of pet dogs (small, medium, large) that I’ve learned how to take care of. I have been paid to watch and clean family members dogs in the past. I am young so I am able to do more labor. I am able to give dogs oral medication, and have experience using medicinal creams on dogs. I am able to (and love to!) play with dogs to make sure they have fun. I am no squeamish with cleaning up after animal mistakes, and I can care for multiple dogs as once including puppies and seniors! I’m soon to be enrolled in college full time. I can care for pets over weekends for the full day, and Friday’s after 10 am!! Until school starts though, (August 9th) I am free every day at every time!! If needed, I can watch animals at my mom’s house which has a nice, fenced backyard to play in along with 3 others dogs and 2 cats. (Will mention, one cat is more fiesty with other animals, but i will be putting her in a separate space, and the most she could do is claw) I don’t think I would recommend my mom’s home for seniors or puppies due to an overstimulating environment and a 5 year old.

“This was our first time using Rover. Veronica was great to work with and made the process really easy. She and her family showed lots of love for my dog and gave me daily updates with pictures and how he was doing. I will definitely use her again.”
“Rachael and her husband treated Zumi as their own! She had such a great time and was tuckered out when she got home. Their yard was a great hit with my pup. The communication was top notch. She will be back”
“Really sweet family and just overall perfect experience for both me and my pup. Before boarding: Alani and her families invited us to do meet-and-greet, asked questions about my dog’s usual routines, sent information about other two dogs mine will be staying with ahead of time. During the stay: Alani sent photos and updates daily. Informed me if anything was unusual. They took her to a dog park when the weather got cooler. Pick-up: They were very accommodating while my flight schedules changed. Alani gave me an update on how my dog stay went, anything she noticed, etc. My dog seemed well-played and happy. I felt like they understood how stressful and nervous it can be to part with a pup for extended period, and did everything to help. Alani and her family will always be my first choice to sit my pup going forward. Thank you.”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about this family! This was the first time we ever left our babygirl with someone, but this was a perfect match! From the first interaction to the communication/photos throughout the boarding, to the pickup it was truly seamless! Our babygirl is 9 months old and FULL of energy this made us a bit nervous, but their 7 year old son made it such an easy transition, she had a playmate and he was the absolute sweetest, energetic, kindest, and overall best fit that we could have asked for! We will definitely reach out anytime we are in/near Arizona. The love this family has shown to our babygirl makes it easy to say, they are literal family at this point. In short, We are most appreciative of everything they have shown our babygirl! Please book with them, just not when we need them! Lol, thank you so much!”

I do not hesitate to recommend Christian and Hanna to take care of your dog.”

“Steven was amazing! My dog loved his home, his family, and especially the playtime with his pups. Communication was great from the start — quick replies, super flexible, and very thoughtful. He sent nightly updates while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, content, and exhausted from playing his heart out with Steven’s dogs. I highly recommend Steven if you’re looking for a skillful, caring professional who treats your dog like part of the family.”
