“Such a loving and caring family. My dogs walked in as if they walked into their home. I left them feeling confident that they were in good hands. Cecilia is great in communication and sending pitfie updates we would definitely go back.”
“Denise clearly is passionate about caring for dogs! She was easy to communicate with and made sure our pups were well cared for with daily walks, trips to the beach, and plenty of other canine companions! We felt assured that the girls were in good hands for their extended stay.”
“This was my first time being away from my dog and I was so nervous leading up to it but Marion was so calm, helpful, and flexible with setting up the boarding. The photos and updates she shared with me gave me piece of mind while I was on my work trip nad I came back to a very happy dog. Would definitely rebook with her for any trips or daycare needs!”
“Johemy was amazing with our Daisy! She sent us daily pics, and it was obvious Daisy thrived in her care. Excellent communication from the very start. We would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter! Thank you so much Johemy!”
“Christina was great! She was very accommodating of my last minute request, and flexible with shifting drop off/pick up times. Luca seemed very comfortable staying with her and we got a lot of great photos and updates.”
“Asta was amazing with my dog! I was looking for someone who could care for Sally while I visited home for the holidays, and she was available and happy to help. They went out for walks together, hung out inside, and socialized with Asta's extremely chill dog. She sent photos and videos to update me on what they were up to each day, and I could always reach her while I was on my trip. I'll definitely have Sally stay over again!”
“Cristine was truly amazing and the best sitter we’ve ever had! From our meet and greet, her experience and passion for animals were clear right away. She is incredibly compassionate, deeply dog-loving, and extremely careful and safe (our top priority). During our flight chaos, she was the sweetest, modified, and welcomed Augie with genuine excitement, asked all the right questions, and treated him like her own (even brushing him; he came back smelling great!). We felt completely at ease the entire time. Doggies truly deserve her care, and we’ll request her every time we travel 🥹if she’s not fully booked by then from this very well deserved review! 🐾💛 Thank so much Christine! 🐶”
“Donna was absolutely wonderful with Fiona! 🐾 She gave her great care and attention the entire stay, and I could tell Fiona felt right at home. Donna kept communication clear and friendly, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and trustworthy sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Carol and her sister are both so nice and did a great job taking care of my pets. My dog & cat both came home happy and obviously well cared for - no hint of anxiety, just nice & tired after a fun rover stay. And thank you for the willingness to accomodate with pickup time!”
“Brenden is amazing and took such great care of Mulligan! We were able to fully enjoy a wedding celebration knowing our dog was in great hands. Brenden took the dogs hiking and lots of play was had which was perfect to tire Mulligan out ahead of our 6 hour drive home. Highly recommend!!!”
“Nina was an excellent and communicative sitter for my dog. She has a great yard and I think my dog already misses it! Nina’s dog Ranie is a great playmate and kindly shared her toys with my dog. I just moved to this area, so I feel really lucky to have found Nina right away!”
“Yessina and Sophie and their 3 children were the perfect introduction for my 6 month old puppy, Pixie, to experience her 1st dog sitters! They were very kind and gentle with her and her shyness didn’t faze them. Buster my 8 year old terrier who is cautious around strangers, but a real gentleman, picked his spots to lay down and wait patiently and was calm when I arrived. Even though both dogs refused to eat while they were there for the day, I was very happy with the care given by this family. They really listened to me and followed my suggestions! I’m planning on returning and rebooking with them!”
About: There was never not a dog in my house growing up, so caring for dogs is second nature to me. Over the years I’ve taken care of everything from purebreds to mutts, and while I’ve always had a soft spot for rescues, I love all dogs equally and treat every one like family. I work primarily from home and have a very flexible schedule, which means I can offer plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Since I’m home most of the time, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll always do my best to stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I live in a clean, quiet, pet-friendly home with my wife, who’s also a big animal lover. We don’t have kids or pets of our own, so we’re able to keep things calm and give your pet our full attention. Safety always comes first with me. I follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions closely, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Bridget was absolutely wonderful with my anxious little dog, Augie!! I had never left him overnight before and both Augie and myself were nervous, but Bridget assured me that she was kind, patient, and a true dog lover! I could tell by all of the great photos that she sent that Augie was not only fine, more than comfortable and having fun! He walked and socialized with Bridget’s dog Finley and was even calm and curious when meeting her cats! I can’t more highly recommend Bridget, and I will absolutely have Augie stay with her again!”

“Carol was thoroughly professional, friendly, and easygoing when we met and I felt reassured from our first meeting that she would do a great job taking care of my two kitties while I was away. She contacted me with daily updates at the scheduled feeding times, and the whole process was smooth and positive. I will be calling on her again next time I need her help feeding and playing with my kitties while I’m traveling.”
“Marianne was great! Very good communication from booking throughout the stay with my cat. She sent updates and photos which was really nice. My cat loved her. Will book again.”
“Carol was absolutely wonderful. She took care of our dog and cat for 10 days during Christmas break. She was professional and went above and beyond our expectations. She was attentive to their needs and allowed both of them to be relaxed and happy while we were gone. Carol sent me daily updates and photos of how they are doing. I would highly recommend her services to everyone and for sure will book with her again! ”
About: As a child we weren't allowed to have cats despite wanting one. My brother and I secretly fed and cared for a stray in our garage until we were caught and had to find a proper home for her. Now my parents have a cat! I've cared for Cali a few times in recent years when they would travel. Most recently I spent three months in Italy at a villa and part of my job was to care for Tinker, a brave and friendly male cat whom I adored. My friend Beth also has cat I have grown to love and care for along with her dogs over the past two years. I've cared for both indoor and outdoor cats.
“Bri was great! She sent me photos everyday and was great at communicating with me. I’m definitely using her services again on my next trip. Honey seemed very comfortable with her and she was in good hands while I was gone. Thank you Bri for everything and I’ll be calling you again for my next trip!”
About: I’m the mom to a cat named Zeppelin, a dog named Stevie and a horse named Cece. I successfully trained both Stevie and Zeppelin (yes you can train a cat!) myself and have dabbled in equine training as well. Being the guardian of a nervous, reactive pup, I pride myself on understanding animal behavior and dog body language. After bringing Stevie home, I was quickly thrown into the world of dog training and behavior modification out of necessity and I have a special place in my heart for nervous pups. I've even started training other people's dogs on the side! After training my own dog, I fell in love with the process and couldn't put it down! I’ve also worked in a veterinary office and feel confident in my abilities to keep your animals safe and know how to handle emergencies. I’m a lab assistant for an environmental toxicology lab and train dogs on the side. I am available for drop ins and walks in the late afternoon and evening most days as well as any time on Sunday’s. At this time I am not available for boarding or overnight stays. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own, all of mine are rescues that took time, patience and trust to get to where we are now. I understand that having a new person around might be scary for your pet at first but I look forward to building a relationship with them so we all feel safe and comfortable. Having a nervous, reactive dog and a nervous cat has taught me how to better understand dog and cat body language and to go at their own pace.
About: I have experienced with hands on care for dogs and cats of all age, proving daily walks, administering basic medications, and proving lots of love. Making sure the pets feel comfortable and safe is always a top priority. I’m a current full time students, so I have availability throughout the week for drop ins in the morning or evening. I am available all week for pet sitting. I can provided safety, trust and security in the environment by attending introduction meetings with pet parents either in person or virtually to establish needs of pet care. During stay, I will send update pictures and text.
“Molly has been very responsive and easy to communicate with. And of course most importantly, my cats have gotten comfortable with her quickly. And she could even tell them apart quickly (two all-black cats), which is a rare achievement! She's been great with sending pictures, asking questions, and feeding my cats, both following instructions and noting additional things that were needed. It's a relief to find someone I feel comfortable trusting with my cats.”
About: My cat care experience has been based on the cat’s needs. Some need more attention than others. I have mostly taken care of senior kitties who need food, some loves and their litter box changed.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs since the age of 17. Family and friends have trusted me on walking and feeding their pets when they have vacations or are simply just busy:) I’m available all weekends and weekdays to play, feed, bathe, walk, give attention, and babysit if you have any upcoming vacations or urgent emergencies you may have! While you're out of town, I'll make sure your dog feels right at home! Daily walks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of love will keep them happy and well-cared for. 🐾🏠💕
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, I even had a gecko when I was younger. I have lived with and cared for pets my whole life. I grew up with a orange tabby cat, and recently lived with a Bombay and an American shorthair. I have also cat sat an Egyptian Mau and a Nebelung. My friends call me the cat whisperer because even when they say "he/she isn't keen to newcomers, the cat tends to feel comfortable with me right from the start". This is something I love seeing since cats are known to be more picky about who they chose to rub against or get close to. I have also grown up around and cared for a variety of dogs. To list a few dog breeds I have cared for: American Eskimo, Labrador, Golden Retrieves, Huskie, Malamute, German Shepard, Cavapoo, Belgian Malinois, Golden Doodle, Beagle, Wiener dog, Katahula, Mountain Cur, Boxer. My first dog was an American Eskimo , and then my family also had a couple Labs and currently have a Katahula/Mountain Cur mix. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with the care of their pets. I have experience working with working dogs (Belgian Malinois, German Shepard) and caring for them on strict schedules as my best friend has 2 working dogs that have alternating schedules and crate times. My last roommate has a Cavapoo and since I work fully remote I spent the days caring for him, taking him on walks, feeding him dinner, I even gave him bathes though he didn't particularly enjoy them. I love to go for runs/walks and love to cuddle. I promise that if you chose me to care for your pet they will receive all the love I have to offer. I currently work from home full-time with a lot of flexibility in my work schedule, so I am able to take the pets out for walks multiple times a day if needed, and it opens me up to be more available to watch your pets. I am a highly active person so having a furry companion to play with always makes my days better. I currently share an apartment with a roommate who does not do well with Pet Dander so it is best if I care for your furry friends at your home. I will respect your wishes whether you allow pets on furniture or not. I do not mind if they are on the furniture but that is a personal preference and understand the need for consistency with animals. When caring for your pet I just ask that you provide a note of preferred do's or dont's in your home.

“Jesse took great care of our dog Kiké when we took a last-minute day trip. He gave Kiké plenty of walks, sent pictures and updates, and kindly accommodated a late pick-up time. Thanks you, Jesse!”
“Kalikonani is a lovely young lady who kindly cares for her dog and another small, older dog. She asked several questions before accepting the booking to be sure it would be a comfortable and safe environment for those (charming) dogs and mine. She gave me a detailed account of the entire time my dog was there with several photos. I would definitely book her again if I lived in the area or if I visit again.”
About: As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from my teacup Pomeranian to my German Shepherd, as well as caring for puppies, senior pets, and cats. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means playtime and exercise, sticking to a routine, or providing extra patience and comfort. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and at home while their owners are away. Im currently working part time remote, so I have time to be with your pup! From spending time at the house, walks, park time and play time. I’m available during the week and weekends I have a box of toys and brain stimulating toys, I take my dogs to the park to keep them moving and social. I have a friendly social dog that you’re baby can be with or I easily crate your If needed.
“Johemy was great! My little Brigid was so well cared for. I love leaving her with someone who is loving and caring. I appreciate how nurturing she was to her. I would definitely recommend!”
“I contacted Carol for the first time In Carmel by the Sea, CA. I needed my Boxer taken care of all day and was stressed how to find someone I can trust . I have to say that Carol made me at ease when we spoke when she picked him up and her generous videos what my dog was doing, the walks etc. no doubt, Carol is on my address book of a must to take care of my dog. Love it! Thank you Carol”
“Dilan was very kind and attentive to our blind rescue poodle Sugar and Melody was a perfect canine host. In turn Sugar was extremely happy and calm even though she always had severe separation anxiety due to her condition. Dilan is very communicative and understanding so you can trust your pet will be well taken care of.”
“While visiting Carmel, we needed someone to care for our miniature Australian Shepherd for a day. With no experience leaving Blu with anyone locally, we chose David through Rover. We met David for an introductory visit and he gave us a tour of his excellent facilities, introduced Blu to his own dog and cat, and immediately put us all at ease. When our plans changed at the last minute, he was flexible and accommodating. At drop-off, Blu quickly settled into his surroundings, and the photos David shared showed he was comfortable and had made himself right at home. When we picked him up, he was happy—and pleasantly tired. We highly recommend David.”

“Elizabeth was attentive and kind. She requested meeting our dog first and making sure she got along with her dog, sent pic throughout the stay and was super friendly. Felt my dog was safe and loved the entire stay.”
“Kelly did an amazing job taking care of my dog Clyde. She was super responsive, friendly, and kind. She sent me several pictures of Clyde throughout the day and that made me very happy. I could tell she took great care of him. Anytime I’m in the Carmel/Monterey Bay area with Clyde I will look to book with Kelly again.”
“Nina is wonderful - the peace of mind we have leaving Cosmo with her is priceless. Cosmo is comfortable in her home, Nina is very attentive, and her yard is terrific. Highly recommended!”

“Citlali was super responsive, flexible, and just great. Super appreciate her dealing with my last minute and changing needs! My dog is usually very hesitant going to new people/places but she was surprisingly comfortable with her, her husband, and cat 😊”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve been a dog owner since I was 15, and I currently have two French Bulldogs, which has given me a deep understanding of breed-specific needs, puppy energy, and senior pet care. Over the years, I’ve learned how to read dogs’ body language, understand their moods, and respond calmly and effectively to keep them safe and happy. Professionally, I’ve worked in both an animal hospital and a doggy daycare, where I gained experience with feeding routines, administering basic care, monitoring health and behavior, and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’m also skilled in creating structured routines, providing gentle exercise, and giving extra love and attention to pets who need it, like seniors or shy dogs. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive. I make sure to communicate clearly with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. For me, every pet deserves individualized care, respect, and affection, and I treat each one as if they were my own. My combination of personal experience, professional training, and genuine love for animals ensures that every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and truly cared for. Caring for pets is part of my daily routine. I make sure they get fed, exercised, and plenty of love every day, and I stay on top of any special needs or routines.

You have my word that I will treat your animal with the same love and care I show for my dog. I also spend a lot of time with walking dogs at the SPCA, so I have been professionally trained and therefore have a plethora of experience with all dog personalities. I work full time in the Army but I am typically free on the weekends or early in the mornings to help out with pet care. I will always follow the rules you have laid out for your pet and ensure that your pet is taken care of to the best of my ability

“Carol was fantastic with our eight-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel! She quickly bonded with her and provided a wonderful midweek walk, complete with photo updates. Her communication was clear, timely, and professional, and we came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We’d be delighted to work with Carol again and highly recommend her!”
About: Hello! I’m a pet parent to three cats and a senior Yorkie, as well as a trained Doggy Day Out volunteer at SPCA Monterey County. I love taking care of pets and giving you peace of mind. I believe in treating pets with kindness and using low-stress, cooperative-care approaches whenever possible so they can feel safe and comfortable. I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for drop-ins, dog walks, and house sitting. If you need extended daytime or evening care beyond a standard walk or drop-in, feel free to reach out to discuss custom pricing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will carefully follow your instructions, pay close attention to any changes in your pet, and provide clear updates. I also hold an online Pet CPR & First Aid certification through American Health Training and a certificate of completion for Fear Free Shelter Program training, which have helped me learn how to recognize common warning signs, reduce pet stress, and take appropriate next steps in a pet emergency.
About: I have the most experience with various dog breeds young and old. More recently I have grown to also love and care for cats. Most of my full time experience has been with my personal dogs. Zoe, an Australian Shepard, was a shining light in my life for 14 years. Prior to Zoe I had Max, a sweet and gentle Rottweiler I was with for 6 years. For the past 4 years I've been spending a lot of time caring for the beloved pets and homes of my friends and family. I'm a retired teacher so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do some regular volunteer work with cancer patients a few hours each week. I walk or hike daily and a furry companion would be welcome. It's one of the main reasons I signed up for Rover! I am also now on Trusted Housesitters and have experience caring for pets in client's homes. I could have a pet in my home for short visits. I live near a lovely wooded trail that dogs LOVE.
“Fantastic find! Marianne was quick to respond and maintained great communication throughout. We were visiting from out of town and hired her for daily walks. She was great with our 75 lb Labrador.”
About: I've had dogs nearly my entire life, enjoying them from puppyhood to senior age. As my kids grew up, I have also taken care of hamsters, bunnies, lizards, turtles, and parakeets. But most of all, I love dogs. My dog Rainie is an English lab, half chocolate/half yellow who loves playing with other dogs, especially other labs. I'm very familiar with the needs and limitations of senior dogs and can adapt our routines accordingly. I only host one dog at a time to ensure everyone gets enough peace and pettings. We can host caged pets at the same time (small reptiles and parakeets). I'm retired and can host your pet anytime with advance notice. My calendar will accurately indicate my availability. My regular routine includes walking and gardening with our guest dogs. I have a large fenced yard and a single level home 8 steps above ground. Your dog will spend most of their time wherever I happen to be and will be given regular potty breaks. Your dog will enjoy romping in the yard for extended periods under supervision, but will not be left unattended in the yard. Please provide detailed feeding and medication instructions and I will follow them to the letter. Tell me about your dog's special likes, dislikes, fears, and behavioral quirks so we can make dog feel at home. Your dog must be able to manage the steps to get in and out of the house, be willing to use the doggie ramp, or be small enough for me to carry up and down. Must be housebroken. Please provide crate if crate trained and more comfortable in the crate. Or, provide favorite bed or blanket. Otherwise, we have a collection of blankets. Please bring your dog's favorite toy. Some large dogs accepted, depending on size, breed, and degree of training. A meet and greet is a must for most dogs. Pit bulls, Rottweilers, and Dobermans will not be accepted under any circumstances. I realize that many individual dogs are very sweet, but as a rule, these breeds unnerve me, and the dog will sense that.
About: Prior to now, I have owned two dog boutique hotels that I have personally built from the ground up. I am familiar with all kinds of doggies and their personalities. All doggies are special to me and will receive nothing but the best of care and affection. I am currently taking care of pups in your own home unless we discuss and or have made other arrangements. I am also a commissioned artist so I would not be leaving to another job, your pup(s) would be my only concern. I might go run a couple errands, grocery store, etc... but I would enjoy just being home with your pups and painting, exercising them, playing with them or just doing whatever they are familiar in doing with you. As to your own personal instructions only. I understand, every dog has their own individual personality and each puppy has special needs. I will accompany each puppy as you wish.

“Katt is an incredible dog walker! From the moment she arrived, my dogs were instantly comfortable with her. She was warm, attentive, smart, and asked all the right questions. She came prepared with a fantastic treat bag and a solid understanding and positive reinforcement. She handled my two energetic dogs with ease and confidence, and I immediately felt at ease knowing they were great hands. I couldn’t have been happier to find her - highly recommend just after one walk!”
About: I love all animals! I am attentive and genuinely care. I understand that pets are family members, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and respect that I would give my own. I take the time to learn each pet's unique personality, routines, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, attentive to detail, and committed to maintaining a pet's normal routine to reduce stress and provide consistency, to ensure both pets and their owners have peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize their well-being. I structure my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and care throughout the day.

About: I loved dogs since I was a kid and have taken care of many different kinds of dogs since owning mine. I have an 8 year old, 72 pound golden retriever mix. I raised her mostly by myself for almost 3 years She is a rescue dog from the SFSPCA shelter. I have experience training reactive dogs because my girl had a big issue with biker and skaters. Now she is a lot more comfortable around them. I’m very patient, responsive, reliable and loving.. Safety is very important to me. I will make sure your dog is in good care. I work full time, but my business partner and roommate can take in your dog anytime. During the weekdays I can walk your dog at least twice a day.( morning and afternoon). I live in a 3 bedroom house with my roommate. My roommate and I decided to open up our home to help people and their dogs. We have front yard, making convenient for pups to go potty on or play. My dog gets along with almost everyone. She would love to have a friend If you are new to rover, use my link to get $20 off your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/astay00975 Code: ASTAY00975
“Carol agreed in Oct to have visits to meet our dog in preparation for Xmas trip. Our dog is really scared of strangers. It took 6-7 visits for our dog to get used to Carol. Carol was very patient with it. She was flexible working out times and was able to do some walking visits at Xmas. She contacted us with updates and questions and we felt like our dog was in good hands. We will continue to work with Carol now that our dog has another person she likes! ”

“Such a loving and caring family. My dogs walked in as if they walked into their home. I left them feeling confident that they were in good hands. Cecilia is great in communication and sending pitfie updates we would definitely go back.”
“Denise clearly is passionate about caring for dogs! She was easy to communicate with and made sure our pups were well cared for with daily walks, trips to the beach, and plenty of other canine companions! We felt assured that the girls were in good hands for their extended stay.”
“This was my first time being away from my dog and I was so nervous leading up to it but Marion was so calm, helpful, and flexible with setting up the boarding. The photos and updates she shared with me gave me piece of mind while I was on my work trip nad I came back to a very happy dog. Would definitely rebook with her for any trips or daycare needs!”
“Asta was amazing with my dog! I was looking for someone who could care for Sally while I visited home for the holidays, and she was available and happy to help. They went out for walks together, hung out inside, and socialized with Asta's extremely chill dog. She sent photos and videos to update me on what they were up to each day, and I could always reach her while I was on my trip. I'll definitely have Sally stay over again!”
“Carol and her sister are both so nice and did a great job taking care of my pets. My dog & cat both came home happy and obviously well cared for - no hint of anxiety, just nice & tired after a fun rover stay. And thank you for the willingness to accomodate with pickup time!”
“Brenden is amazing and took such great care of Mulligan! We were able to fully enjoy a wedding celebration knowing our dog was in great hands. Brenden took the dogs hiking and lots of play was had which was perfect to tire Mulligan out ahead of our 6 hour drive home. Highly recommend!!!”
“Nina was an excellent and communicative sitter for my dog. She has a great yard and I think my dog already misses it! Nina’s dog Ranie is a great playmate and kindly shared her toys with my dog. I just moved to this area, so I feel really lucky to have found Nina right away!”
About: There was never not a dog in my house growing up, so caring for dogs is second nature to me. Over the years I’ve taken care of everything from purebreds to mutts, and while I’ve always had a soft spot for rescues, I love all dogs equally and treat every one like family. I work primarily from home and have a very flexible schedule, which means I can offer plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Since I’m home most of the time, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll always do my best to stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I live in a clean, quiet, pet-friendly home with my wife, who’s also a big animal lover. We don’t have kids or pets of our own, so we’re able to keep things calm and give your pet our full attention. Safety always comes first with me. I follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions closely, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Bridget was absolutely wonderful with my anxious little dog, Augie!! I had never left him overnight before and both Augie and myself were nervous, but Bridget assured me that she was kind, patient, and a true dog lover! I could tell by all of the great photos that she sent that Augie was not only fine, more than comfortable and having fun! He walked and socialized with Bridget’s dog Finley and was even calm and curious when meeting her cats! I can’t more highly recommend Bridget, and I will absolutely have Augie stay with her again!”
“Maria and Gregory were amazing! They took great care of our Labradoodle Daisy over a long weekend and treated her like Family. Maria and Greg provided updates every day to keep us up to date, and Daisy really seemed to like them evident by her good mood when we picked her up. Thank you Maria and Gregory!”
“Angie was great! We have a 2 year old Goldendoodle and his 5 month old son (1/2 Siberian Husky). They’re quiet a handful together. This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone else and were a little nervous but I felt super comfortable leaving our dogs with Angie. She sent me photos frequently and communicated very well with me. It looks like our dogs had a great time during their stay with her during the 3 days! I’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Athena was great with my dog, Donner! She was able to watch him with only a few days notice. Took him on walks and updated us with pictures. It was so nice for Donner to get all the attention being the only dog there. I will definitely be booking Donner for another stay in the future. Thank you so much Athena and Will for giving Donner the best care while we were on vacation!”
“Helen took great care of my almost 10 week kitten! I was a little nervous since he was so young but I could tell she (and her family) loved him like their own for the week she watched him. She sent me photos and videos every day, which was awesome too.”
“Nicole and her family are incredible. They took the best care of our pup. We felt very comfortable being states away and knew that he was so loved. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you!”
“Mike and Lynn were amazing dog sitters. They were so welcoming and careful to ask questions about my dog’s needs. She was well taken care of. Mike sent me pictures everyday. And she even came home tired which is rare for my high energy pup. I absolutely recommend having them take care of your dog. I will definitely book with them in the future.”
