“I've had the pleasure of entrusting my two dogs, who couldn't be more different in personality, to Teri for boarding once again, and this stay was by far the longest I’ve done. Choosing Teri again for such an extended period is a testament to the profound trust I have in her care. She has an unparalleled knack for making each dog feel at home, understanding that every furry friend has unique needs and temperaments. My affectionate, dramatic Guinness and my anxious, reserved Bailey were both treated with the same level of care and affection, tailored perfectly to their differing personalities. The confidence I have in Teri is not just about her capability as a dog sitter; it's about the genuine love and understanding she has for dogs. I would even add that Guinness let me know that she missed Teri and her furry companions after leaving. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own, with a touch of magic in making them feel special, Teri is the one. She's not just a dog boarder; she's a friend to both pets and their owners, and I can't recommend her enough. Thank you so much, Teri!!”

“Being returning customer speaks volumes of the quality of the job business performed, and whether goods/service was worth the money. We are exceptionally pleased with Ron after first time dog sitting experience, and did not hesitate to bring our precious baby Pedro (12 y/old Chihuahua) for another boarding weekend with Ron. Pedro loves his pals (Ron’s 2 adorable dogs), and enjoys spending time at Ron’s house. We are so grateful for Ron, and feel we could not have found a better caregiver for our precious baby Pedro, and hoping to continue being customers for years to come!”

“I’ve booked with this family twice and my baby loves them. When I drop him off he just forgets I exist lol. I’m always nervous about leaving JB with someone because he is a mouthy boy with personality. He fits right in and causes chaos. Your baby will be well taken care of with Seth and Connie.”

“First time using Rover.com and couldn’t be more pleased. Beth is such a caring dog person. Paige immediately went to her at the meet and greet jumping up on her lap and relaxing. That is good for 6month old pup. Beth kept me updated daily on Paige and went above and beyond to make sure she was well and happy. Thank you Beth!!”

“Christina saved my life! 3 days before Open Heart Surgery, I was without a sitter for my Poodle, Dusty. PANIC set in ,along with plenty of tears. I searched the internet and found Rover and Christina. I was nervous. Will he be ok. Have fun. Be loved. I didn't want him with a lot of other dogs....just in case. Christina called and within 5 minutes she had my nerves vanished and I was sold. We met and she is the sweetest, kind, and loving lady. Dusty loved her and her dog from the start. Off they went to have fun and I could get my surgery. Received pictures almost daily and when I got him back my dog was a happy, vibrant dog. He had lots of fun. Went on walks. Played with his new found buddy whom he already missed too. Rover and Christina literally saved my life and I am forever grateful! The best place to leave my fur baby Ever. Christina was my angel sent from heaven to rescue me and spoil my Dusty with fun,love and kisses Thank You!”

“It was a lovely short weekend stay with Teddye and John who are both super personable and took great care of my pup. I appreciated Teddye’s ability to let me drop off early in the morning to make a flight.”

“They did an amazing job! They’re such a sweet family. Trevor has glaucoma and has a very specific medication application that needs to be done twice a day which made me nervous about not taking him with me to my vacation. However, when I got back his eyes looked so much better than before! So, I knew they took care of him well. They updated me daily with pictures and he looked so happy during his stay. Will be booking again.”

“Gail is awesome!! My 13 yr old pup needed a vet visit and meds under her care and she was right on top of it. She took great care of him! Gail is my new go-to dog sitter!”

“Loren was amazing and put some of my anxiety at ease with our high energy aussie. She sent daily recaps and pictures of our dogs. It looked like they had a wonderful time and were so happy/tired when picked up. She communicates quickly with any questions/concerns. Would love to have our dogs stay with her again!”

“Jennifer was wonderful! She cared for our dogs like they were her own, giving them so much love, attention, and pampering. It was such a relief to know they were safe and happy while we were away. She went above and beyond. Our pups came home relaxed, content, and maybe a little spoiled—in the best way! I can’t recommend her enough and will absolutely be booking with her again.”

“Steve was attentive and gave great communication! He sent pictures daily and gave me great comfort with my furbaby. My XL Bully can be an intimidating dog for many just based off looks but Steve took him in and treated him like the cuddly bear he is. He sent pictures of them walking and hanging out at stores. I am very pleased with Steve and will be sure to use him again in the future when needed! Thank you again Steve! ? ?”

“Jenifer took the BEST care of our sweet girl! It was so great to know she was happy and well cared for while we were away. LOTS of pics and videos, which felt really good. We will definitely have Oonagh stay with Jen and her pups when we travel in the future.”

“Shawna and Ethan were far more than i expected. Excellent care and feedback. My puppy (8months old) was in great hands and the took excellent care of him. I will be using there services again in the future!”

“This is our 5th or 6th visit and Kona always looks a little disappointed that she has to come home. Gets lots of walks and friendly dogs to visit with. Sitter very easy to communicate with and will continue to be our first call when we head out of town.”

“David was excellent to work with! He was understanding of my dog's anxiety needs, handled him well on walks, and gave him lots of care and attention during my dog's stay. David also communicated well and gave us daily updates!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the experience Cedar and I had with Christie and Daniel. From the moment I dropped Cedar off, I felt completely at ease. They took the time to ask thoughtful questions about his routine, personality, and preferences, and it was clear right away that they genuinely love and understand dogs. Throughout Cedar’s stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and even a few sweet videos that showed just how comfortable and happy he was. Seeing him playing, relaxing, and getting plenty of attention made it so much easier to be away from him. When I picked him up, they had given him a bath and he clearly had a great time. I could tell he felt safe and well cared for—he even gave a little tail wag goodbye, which says it all! I’m so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and kind boarder for Cedar. I won’t hesitate to bring him back the next time I travel. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Marraya and her mom were very accommodating and helpful when our other sitter fell through the day we were leaving on our trip. Our pup was taken care of and we received daily updates. Highly recommend”

“We had an amazing experience with Lesley as our dog sitter for our two small dogs! She was incredibly attentive to our dog’s needs and went above and beyond to ensure their comfort and happiness while I were away on a trip. Lesley provided regular updates and photos, which gave us both peace of mind knowing our pups were in good hands. Her genuine love for animals truly shines through in her care, and we will not hesitate to book her again in the future. Highly recommend Lesley for anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”

“Selina was great with Cooper! She gave him 100ml of IV subcutaneous fluids daily. She’s dependable and sent pictures while we were gone! Definitely will use her again!”


About: I’ve owned cats since 2020. I first owned a grey tabby named Eva and then we got her a friend who was a tortoise/calico/tuxedo girl named Callie. Later down the road I owned an orange boy named Citrine and in 2023 I got Ashen, my beige kitty. I have experience grooming and feeding special diets and medication. (Callie had kidney disease unfortunately). In 2025 I began volunteering at Pima Animal Care Center and worked with the cats waiting to meet new families.

“We were happy with Kaitlynn’s responsiveness. Our cats are fairly easy going, but one gets separation anxiety and needs someone around frequently (or else UTI/other fun emergency vet visit reasons crop up). The house was in good order and the cats were fed and happy when we got home from our five day work trip and that is all we could ask for!”


“Wonderful and always communicated and sent pictures. Have already rebooked with her. Cant say thanks enough for her willingness to drive to a decent remote area of Arizona to help with my dog and cat. It takes a lot of stress off regarding my busy schedule.”


About: I have always had cats since the day I was born, and I’m very experienced looking after cats of all ages and temperaments. We’ve had tiny kittens all the way up to 15 year old seniors, requiring different levels of care and attention. I’m not scared of cats and will happily spend as much or as little time with them as they want (they always get to decide, naturally). I’ve looked after cats with various dietary needs, as well, so happy to coax and cater to even the pickiest eaters!

“Tilly came to Sequim to take my very energetic Boston Terrier for an hour long walk. She was on time and pleasant and actually walked her to the nearby dog park and played fetch with her! So glad to have someone wear out CiCi while I am recovering from an illness. Thank you Tilly 🙏”

“Did a great job caring for our cats while we’ve been away. She did a great job with all the care that is involved with cats, including playtime, litter, feeding and watering. I would definitely hire for her services again. I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve lived with large and small dogs and cats my whole life. Even as a teenager I took care of our house cat for years and she lived in my room. My parents own one little one now (the one listed on my profile) who I don’t live with but still consider them to be my own dogs because I love them so much! I am currently working free-lancing gigs remotely while I study for my PMP exam so my schedule is flexible when I am in Ardmore. I do have a very active lifestyle so I love taking dogs on walks and hikes in my free time! I will keep them on a consistent feeding schedule. I’ll take them on multiple walks a day. I’ll can hang with them while I’m working on my online classes or just watching TV!

About: I didn’t get to take care of cats growing up, but it made seeking out cat sitting for friends so much more rewarding. I have seen cat personalities all across the spectrum, from not even being comfortable in the same room as people to being a floppy teddy bear in my arms, I honestly just care about experiencing your pet(s) and giving them the best time away from their parents. Having 6 cats, my partner and I have navigated so many situations that I feel confident entering new households prepared for the best and the worst.

“Sami was great! She communicated well, sent pics of the animals, and the best part is how much our babies loved her. Our VERY timid Dachshund who barks at everyone and every thing, absolutely loved her and was immediately comfortable with her! We will definitely have her back!”


“She was amazing! Pictures and notes every visit! She let me know everything going on, sent me pictures of not only my pup but of how the house looked, picked up after my clumsy dog and was on top of communication! I absolutely recommend Carmen and will use her again if I’m out of town!”

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs for many years and loved taking care of my friends’ dogs. I make sure they feel safe around me and are getting the attention they need. I am at work from 8 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday but I am available after 5 on week days and any time on weekends. I will be available throughout the day on weekends.

“Beth provided a great day care experience. She communicates well and provided good updates. Elly was excited to return the second day. An added bonus is her location next to an access point to the Tucson cycling trail system.”

“Ashley is great! Shadow is excited to go and see her everytime and when she comes back home she is already looking forward to the next visit! I recommend Ashely to everyone.”

“The girls loved spending the day with Barbara. They were super excited to return. We appreciated the pictures and updates through the day. Peaches is tired so we know she had some play!”

About: I've loved dogs my whole life! When I was born my mom had a chocolate lab and a doberman. Then my dad got a rescue pitbull and a husky mix. Right now my family has a mini golden doodle who's been with us for 14 years and a mini Aussie doodle. I also have a pitbull mix named nova! She's two years old. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me! I just graduated esthetician school and I’m currently starting my business. Everything I make on rover goes towards my career! Im currently starting my entrepreneurial journey. Right now I’m a full time pet care giver. I also work a weekend night job. I do not have a set schedule so I have open availability. I prefer to care for pets in my home but I’m always happy to accommodate whatever the client needs. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play and accessible paths for walks. During sittings I make sure to not only take great care of the pet but the clients home as well.
“Kat has taken care of my large dog on multiple occasions, always treating him with love and patience. He is loving but excitable, and Kat always knows how to calm him and provide him a happy space.”

“Amber absolutely loves going over to have a fun day with her besties at Adria’s house! Amber is a very shy dog, so I know she truly loves it there because every time I drop her off, she runs out of my car, her tail is wagging like crazy, and she is always so happy and excited to willingly run right into the house. That alone gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s somewhere she feels comfortable and safe. Adria is such a wonderful dog lover and is incredibly reliable, caring, and trustworthy. I always feel completely comfortable leaving Amber with her while I’m at work because I know she’s getting so much love, attention, and care. I couldn’t recommend Adria enough; she is truly amazing. 100/10! 🐾❤️”

“So incredibly grateful for finding you, Christie! (And Daniel too!🙂). Christie, your skills with dogs who are not accustomed to being around other dogs is truly remarkable! I told my husband you are a dog whisperer. Thank you for giving us a home we feel comfortable leaving Lucy & Lily when we go on vacations. With gratitude, Trish & Mic ❤️”

“Andrea was very kind and helpful in caring for our pup. You can tell she loves dogs and our dog seemed to love her, too! The house was roomy and the yard was big and easily accessible. Will definitely use her again soon!”

“Seth was wonderful to work with! He was very responsive and flexible, and we really appreciated the updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with Seth and his family again!”

“First of all, Tara’s place is very suitable for dogs. It is secure with plenty room to run around. We left our 6 month old high energy golden-doodle with Tara for the day. It was the first time being away from us we were worried he would have some anxiety. Tara was great giving us updates throughout the day with pictures. Without hesitation we plan on bringing him back for our next vacation. Thank you Tara!”

“Melissa is amazing! Our pup took to her instantly and seemed happy and comfortable really quickly. Mellisa is great about sending pictures and a little report card at the end of a stay. She is a kind, organized and it’s obvious how good she is with animals! Highly, highly recommend her!!”

“This was our first daycare experience and Jessica was so helpful in making sure we eased into it. She made Nora feel comfortable and happy, and kept me up to date on the progress throughout the day. We’re looking forward to coming back more regularly!”

“Paloma was very sweet and made me feel at ease,even though I have a 75 lb bloodhound.Her comfort with dogs and herself made me feel confident that I could trust her with my big dog.”

“Yaneli took great care of our pup who came home happy and tired. Yaneli has a large, secure backyard where dogs have plenty of room to run around. Stormy, Yaneli’s friendly and energetic pup, was a wonderful playmate. We received pictures and a video during the day which really put our mind at ease. We’d definitely book Yaneli again!”

“Our 3 year old greyhound, Rowdy, enjoyed his day at Steve's. For Rowdy it was like getting to spend an entire day at the dog park. He had outdoor sniffing around time, indoor lounging around time (Rowdy's favorite past time) and he even got to ride in Steve's car to the nearby park! Steve is very attentive to each dog's individual needs and quirks, and he has the space for them all to be comfortable (separated, if needed) and he is there, where they can see him, for dogs with separation anxiety, like Rowdy, it's the most important. We recommend you trust your dog to Steve's care.”

“It's always a joy to have Lily walk the dogs. We were watching our daughters dog who was a little unfriendedly the first time meeting her (which was normal for this dog). Lily knows and understands dogs and was able to have the dog get comfortable with her. Both dogs came back tired and exhausted but very happy from their morrning walk. Highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I've had my cat Olive for 11 years and my dog Bel for 3 years. I have also taken care of close to 70 foster animals mostly kittens, with a few medical fosters, and behavioral issues along the way. I have taken courses on behavioral training for dogs as my own dog is reactive towards dogs, so I am very familiar with dog reactivity. I currently run a small 1 man business from my home and have control over my schedule to provide care to other animals regularly. I also foster other animals from time to time. My own dog is reactive and high energy and needs 3 walks a day usually with a lot of play. My cat is a large maincoon that requires a strict diet and care regimen to keep her pre-diabetes in check.
About: I grew up caring for animals in my home as a kid. I had a rabbit for 8 years and have always had dogs in my home growing up (Lab/terrier, GoldenDoodle, Cockapoo). I am experienced with animals that require daily medication intake as my family dog had valley fever and back pain. I have house sat overnight (multiple nights) for multiple dogs and a cat who also require daily medication. I have experience sitting/caring for elderly dogs and cats. I have also made daily visits stopping by friend's houses to play with/walk their pets while they are at work. I owned a goofy, sassy Corgi puppy with lots of energy. I provided him with walks twice a day. I can provide high energy dogs with lots of play time and walks. I have plenty of time throughout the day to give attention to and play with your pups or cats. I am currently not working and waiting to start school in the fall. I am very attentive and mindful of behaviors. I will keep a close eye on your pets and ensure they are well cared for and their needs are met.

About: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals of all kinds from energetic puppies to senior dogs, barn cats, and even livestock. That experience taught me how to read animal behavior, respond calmly in unexpected situations, and provide gentle, consistent care. I also picked up a lot of practical skills, including how to support animals through stress, illness, or injury. Whether your dog needs extra patience, a structured routine, or just some good old-fashioned love and playtime, I’ve got them covered. I truly understand animals and I treat every pet like part of the family. Caring for animals has always been part of my everyday life. Whether it’s early morning walks, playtime, or keeping a routine for feeding and medication, I naturally build my day around what pets need. I’m used to adjusting my schedule to fit each animal’s routine whether it’s a puppy who needs extra attention or a senior dog who needs a slower pace. Pet care isn’t just a task for me it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether I’m in my home or yours. That includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs like meds or crate training. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in a clean and calm environment.
“Breannae was great! She walked my dog while I was out of town. I had someone watching her at home, but wanted her to get exercise and interaction while I was gone. She sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date on how Bonnie was doing. Awesome job!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for them through every stage, from playful puppies to senior dogs and those needing compassionate end-of-life care. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to each one. Whether it's playtime, walks, medication, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I'll treat your pet like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently have a very open schedule for the summer, with availability through July 27. After that, I'll be working just three days a week, leaving four full days to dedicate to caring for your furry friends. When caring for pets in my client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I also respect your home, keep you updated with photos and messages, and treat your pets like they're my own while you're away.
About: I have been dog sitting for more than 10 years. I also have 3 pets of my own and I've been a veterinary technician for more than 3 years. My experience includes various aspects of pet care, such as feeding, grooming, exercise, and administering medications when needed. I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine to ensure the well-being and happiness of each animal in my care. Safety is of utmost importance to me. I am trained in pet first aid and CPR, prepared to handle any unforeseen situations with calmness and efficiency. I'm also experienced in recognizing signs of discomfort, illness, or distress in pets, ensuring prompt attention and appropriate measures. Pet care is not just a job for me; it's a passion. I find joy in building trusting relationships with animals and their owners, serving as a reliable and responsible caregiver. I pride myself on my strong communication skills, regularly updating pet owners with detailed reports and photos, so they can have peace of mind while they are away. I have a network of satisfied pet owners who can vouch for the quality of my services. Their testimonials reflect my dedication, reliability, and the bond I establish with their dogs. I'm currently working part time at a dog park, which makes it very flexible for my own furry creatures as well as other clients. My life revolves around pet care. My top priority is to familiarize myself with the pet's environment, health, routine, and hygiene. Sticking to the established schedule for feeding, walking, and other daily activities to maintain familiarity and minimize disruption. Keeping the pet's living area clean by regularly cleaning, removing waste from the living space, and maintaining a hygienic environment. Provide updates on the pet's well-being, including photos and detailed reports, to keep the owner informed and reassured.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and began caring for others pets to supplement my education and journalism career. Caring for dogs helps me feel grounded!

“I’ve booked with this family twice and my baby loves them. When I drop him off he just forgets I exist lol. I’m always nervous about leaving JB with someone because he is a mouthy boy with personality. He fits right in and causes chaos. Your baby will be well taken care of with Seth and Connie.”

“It was a lovely short weekend stay with Teddye and John who are both super personable and took great care of my pup. I appreciated Teddye’s ability to let me drop off early in the morning to make a flight.”

“Gail is awesome!! My 13 yr old pup needed a vet visit and meds under her care and she was right on top of it. She took great care of him! Gail is my new go-to dog sitter!”

“Loren was amazing and put some of my anxiety at ease with our high energy aussie. She sent daily recaps and pictures of our dogs. It looked like they had a wonderful time and were so happy/tired when picked up. She communicates quickly with any questions/concerns. Would love to have our dogs stay with her again!”

“Jennifer was wonderful! She cared for our dogs like they were her own, giving them so much love, attention, and pampering. It was such a relief to know they were safe and happy while we were away. She went above and beyond. Our pups came home relaxed, content, and maybe a little spoiled—in the best way! I can’t recommend her enough and will absolutely be booking with her again.”

“Steve was attentive and gave great communication! He sent pictures daily and gave me great comfort with my furbaby. My XL Bully can be an intimidating dog for many just based off looks but Steve took him in and treated him like the cuddly bear he is. He sent pictures of them walking and hanging out at stores. I am very pleased with Steve and will be sure to use him again in the future when needed! Thank you again Steve! ? ?”

“Jenifer took the BEST care of our sweet girl! It was so great to know she was happy and well cared for while we were away. LOTS of pics and videos, which felt really good. We will definitely have Oonagh stay with Jen and her pups when we travel in the future.”

“This is our 5th or 6th visit and Kona always looks a little disappointed that she has to come home. Gets lots of walks and friendly dogs to visit with. Sitter very easy to communicate with and will continue to be our first call when we head out of town.”

“David was excellent to work with! He was understanding of my dog's anxiety needs, handled him well on walks, and gave him lots of care and attention during my dog's stay. David also communicated well and gave us daily updates!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the experience Cedar and I had with Christie and Daniel. From the moment I dropped Cedar off, I felt completely at ease. They took the time to ask thoughtful questions about his routine, personality, and preferences, and it was clear right away that they genuinely love and understand dogs. Throughout Cedar’s stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and even a few sweet videos that showed just how comfortable and happy he was. Seeing him playing, relaxing, and getting plenty of attention made it so much easier to be away from him. When I picked him up, they had given him a bath and he clearly had a great time. I could tell he felt safe and well cared for—he even gave a little tail wag goodbye, which says it all! I’m so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and kind boarder for Cedar. I won’t hesitate to bring him back the next time I travel. Highly, highly recommend!”

“We had an amazing experience with Lesley as our dog sitter for our two small dogs! She was incredibly attentive to our dog’s needs and went above and beyond to ensure their comfort and happiness while I were away on a trip. Lesley provided regular updates and photos, which gave us both peace of mind knowing our pups were in good hands. Her genuine love for animals truly shines through in her care, and we will not hesitate to book her again in the future. Highly recommend Lesley for anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”

“Lara is a wonderful pup care sitter. My dog is high energy and very anxious and she was able to make him feel comfortable. He gets plenty of exercise running around the large property or running alongside Milkshake, the mini pony. Lara is extremely responsive and communicative and I get updates during the day. I am extremely pleased with her services! 😊”

“Lauren was so great with my old man! She took care of him Christmas week. He definitely seemed like he was at home 🥰. She was the sweetest as well. Will definitely book again!!”

“Tango’s home away from home. Austin treats Tango as his very own fur baby and it always bring absolute comfort to me. Great communicator, professional and follows care instructions to the ‘T’. So thankful for them!! 🥰”


“We needed someone to watch our older dog while we were away for a week. Being new to the area we really didn't know anyone and we wanted our dog to be in a home environment where she wouldn't be alone. My wife found Cynthia on Rover and we went over to meet her. We were immediately impressed by the secure yard and surroundings. Our dog immediately bonded with her little dog Chewey. To make sure, we arranged two "play days" to make sure that all went well. Everything went better than expected and I, being an overly protective pet parent, felt at ease with leaving our dog for a week. I had nothing to worry about. Cynthia took great care of our dog, sent us regular updates including pictures and videos. She let our dog settle-in at her house where ever our dog felt most at ease and took her out for regular walks and time in the yard. When we came back we found that our dog had such a good time that I'm not sure she wanted to leave! Needless to say that Cynthia will be our first choice to watch our dog whenever the need arises! Your dog will be in good hands.”

“Melissa provided wonderful home for my Westie! He was welcomed as part of her family and was obviously very well cared for. This was my first experience with Rover.com & I was very nervous until I met Melissa after interviewing a few others. She made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog for the weekend & sent several updates each day. I don’t think he wanted to come home! Highly recommend Melissa!”

“Miriam was exceptional! She took care of our dog Kobe for a week when we were out of town. We got daily updates with pictures showing Kobe was having so much fun! There were lots of play time and snuggle time with her family. She has a beautiful, clean house with a spacious backyard, a perfect setup for any dog. We highly recommend her and we are looking forward to be back soon.”

“Brittani is everything I’d want in a dog sitter and much, much more. She not only provides individualized care and attention, she understands dog behavior, and the psychology behind why they do what they do especially in relation to the dogs and humans in their orbit. I totally recommend Brittani for overnight stays and/or doggie day care. She’s the real deal!”


“Jan is absolutely fabulous! She and her lab Luna made sure that Letty had a wonderful time. Lots of playing, running, walks and swimming. Jan posted daily pics of the dogs having a blast. I'd give her 10 stars if I could. Will definitely be using her again. Our new favorite sitter!”
