“We had a great experience with Eric. He is kind & easy going, kept me updated with photos& videos, attentive to my senior dog ‘s needs & followed care instructions, including giving medications AM& PM. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a sitter in the area.”
“I boarded my two golden doodles with Jing last minute for memorial day weekend. They were the best host i’ve ever very had. Harley and Ivy went on multiple walks everyday and they were well loved, I can’t believe how much they were able to do while I was away I was very pleased with the service. Thank you”
“Steven was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. My wife and I always have family house/pet sit when we go out of town, so leaving them with a sitter had us a bit anxious. During the meet and greet, Steven immediately put us at ease with his kindhearted and soft nature which made us confident in his ability to provide excellent care. While we were gone, steven provided updates with pictures every day, and we could see that they were happy, relaxed, and enjoying thier time with him. Steven was also very accommodating as far as drop offs and pick ups. We absolutely plan on entrusting steven with our pups again in the future. Thank you, Steven!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with my one-year-old puppy! My pup had a fantastic time, got plenty of playtime, and all her needs were taken care of so I could focus on work with complete peace of mind. She was incredibly empathetic and attentive, especially understanding the needs of a younger pup as well as my older dog. She handled multiple pets with confidence, warmth, and such natural care—almost like a mother. I truly appreciated the updates and loving environment she provided. I would absolutely book with her again anytime I’m in Pasadena. Highly recommend!”
“I was so scared as it was my first time leaving Yuki with someone that we don't know but Madalyn gave me trust and I now that I went to pick Yuki it was a great experience. I will definitely book her again if I need to.”
“This was the first overnight stay for my dog Millie. Janice is awesome! She took great care of Millie. I got several updates, which took all my worries away. And by the looks of it Mille had a wonderful time. Will board Millie with her again.”
“Rika was a fantastic pet sitter! My dog had a blast at her house. She sent me detailed updates on how my dog was doing, along with amazing pictures (they were honestly better than the ones I’ve taken myself). She truly took great care of my dog. I will 100% rebook her the next time I need a pet sitter. I can’t emphasize enough how much I appreciate her for this boarding. Thank you, Rika!”
“Great experience, for the dog and us! Drop off and pick up were seamless. Haijin and Victor sent pics and updates which we appreciated. Dude (our dog) seemed to have a great time. We will definitely rebook when we travel without our pup again.”
“This is my second time using Qiting to sit for my fur baby. She stayed with her a week this time. I love how she sends me updates everyday, pics of her even eating her dinner. So pleased with her communication her service. My Harley loves her too. Will definitely use her again and I highly recommend her services. Best sitter ever!”
“Cathy and Andres were fantastic boarding our 3 1/5 year old cocker spaniel, Hazel. They've got a great set up and routine at their home and they were very good with our young dog. They asked lots of questions to help ease Hazel into a new setting. We were sent lots of pics and updates. They really seem to enjoy caring for dogs. They're a great team and we highly recommend.”
“Tiffany is very professional and has a high attention to detail. I have a senior dog who has medical issues that require medication and prescription dog food. Tiffany was able to follow all the instructions as well as provide exemplary care. She provided updates daily and pictures which put me at ease. Tiffany is such kind, trustworthy person and clearly loves dogs.”
“Jane took great care of Karambit while I was away. He gets a little down and doesn’t always eat when he’s boarded, but she and her husband gave him plenty of extra attention. It was clear he was well cared for”
“Amazing experience! My 2 dogs stayed with Jianlei for a few nights and I would definitely book another stay for them in the future. With a park right next door, my dogs were able to take frequent potty breaks and walks. Jianlei was very responsive and sent pictures/updates in the morning and evening which definitely helped with my peace of mind, especially since I have a senior dog. My dogs thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Thank you so much!”
“Ana and Mitchell were incredibly caring with Sophie. I needed a last-minute sitter for Sophie, who isn’t used to being home alone yet at 5 months, and they were amazing. What I love about them is that someone is always home and they only take one dog at a time. They were quick to schedule a meet-and-greet and were very welcoming. Sophie got to meet their dog, Ellie, and they got along instantly. Ana and Mitchell were flexible, accommodating, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure Sophie’s needs were met. We set up a short doggy date for a couple of hours, and it went perfectly- Sophie didn’t even notice we had left! Since leaving Sophie is new for us, we appreciated the frequent updates and their respect for her schedule. She came home happy and content, and it was clear she had a great time. Sophie will definitely be back soon. We even forgot a couple of things at their house and stopped by later, and Sophie was eager to go back inside to Ana and Mitchell’s home- showing just how comfortable she feels there.”
“Joyce is a great sitter! We are always so nervous to leave our dog with people, but Joyce was so great about updating us throughout his stay! Our dog looked like he had a fun time with her two pups. We look forward to booking with her again!”
“My dogs Teddy and Moose love staying at Ming Chia’s for boarding. I really appreciate that she’s so attentive towards the dogs and reports any health issues she might notice. She’s always sending photos/videos and giving the dogs treats. I feel at ease leaving them with her on long trips!”
“Philip did his job a little too well...my dogs came home sad they didn't have Philip and friends to play with anymore! Philip was so great with my dogs, he regularly sent updates that were detailed and exciting to see. He is very quick to respond to any questions and made sure my dogs were comfortable and having fun with the other dogs. Highly recommend him, I have already booked him again for my next trip!”
“Booboo and I had a great experience with Yifan. She asked good questions, followed my detailed instructions, and provided updates with pictures twice a day. She was careful to make sure Booboo didn't jump and got her daily sunbathing in. Booboo is a senior dog and has anxiety but I could tell from the pictures that Booboo acclimated to her environment and enjoyed her time with Yifan. I'd 100% book with her again. :)”
“We hadn’t taken an overseas vacation in over five years because it’s always been so hard for us to leave our dogs, and honestly, we struggled to find someone we truly trusted. But after our meet and greet with Janelle and Alvin, I immediately felt at ease and knew our babies would be in great hands. I’m so happy to say that instinct was absolutely right. They took care of our two dogs for two days, and the entire experience was seamless. Janelle was incredible with communication! She sent updates and photos regularly without me ever needing to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Both Janelle and Alvin have such a calm, kind demeanor, and their home is clean, cozy, and clearly a safe space for pets. One of our dogs is usually very anxious and slow to warm up to new people, but he surprised us by opening up to them right away. That alone speaks volumes. I can’t recommend them enough, and we will absolutely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you Janelle and Alvin for taking such good care of our babies!”

“Nancy was absolutely incredible with my cat, who usually hides from strangers. I received detailed updates and cute photos that completely set my mind at ease. I am so grateful to have found someone so reliable and trustworthy. Highly recommend!”
“Jacqueline did an excellent job caring for my cats while I was out of town. Her calm and quiet demeanor was very helpful for the comfort of my cats, and I felt confident in my choice to have her as my cat sitter when the more skittish of my two cats did not run and hide when she first met him. She sent me many wonderful pictures of her drop in visits with them, which included engaging play time, and I could tell day by day they were adjusting well to her presence, even excited for her to arrive. The cats and I are satisfied by the care she provided, and I look forward to connecting with Jacqueline again for future trips.”
About: I grew up with a Great Dane who I cared for from childhood until she passed, and she’s the reason I’ve loved pets my whole life. Since then, I’ve helped take care of family and friends’ dogs of all sizes. Today I have an 11-year-old chihuahua (Camila) who is healthy, loved, and very used to having little pups around and a 5-year-old Weimaraner (Lolo) who was literally ‘trained’ by Camila to be gentle and respectful with small dogs. We also have a 16-month-old baby who has learned to be calm, gentle, and loving with pets. Your pup will be in a loving, kind, safe, and experienced home. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give consistent attention and supervision to your pup throughout the day. My son is in daycare during daytime hours, so the home stays calm, quiet, and perfect for small dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced front yard where dogs can safely explore under my supervision. I only care for a small number of pups at a time to keep the environment calm and safe. My two pups are gentle, respectful of small breeds, and all interactions are always supervised. I can also separate or crate dogs if needed to match their routine.
“This first time ,I bring my cat to sitters she understands and show me a picture and video when they in boarding,I don't worry much for my travel .next time I will ask her to take car my cat again, Thanks kimmy”

About: I have 3 cats of my own which I care for on my own.

I’m very understanding and can assure you that I will always make sure to communicate everything and provide the best care for your pet!

Family and I, fenced the backyard for my uncle's dog, took care of him, and provided a safe home for him. I know how to feed, walk, and play with dogs and cats.

About: **About me** I have absolutely adored animals since I was little and I am excited at the future opportunities of spending more time pets. I am a full time student, I love finding new parks, beaches, and areas to explore and would be more than happy to take your pet along with me if you feel comfortable I have a dog, cat & gecko and have full knowledge on how to take care of each 😁 I would love the opportunity to pet sit your fur baby 🐾 As a long time pet owner myself, I expect nothing but professional and attentive care to my pets. That being said, I let my work reflect on my core values. As a Rover sitter, I am fully available weekends and holidays. During the weekdays I am available after 4:30pm. **About my neighborhood** We live in a suburban neighborhood with ample sidewalk space and parks nearby. The closest park, is a nature reserve, around the corner from home. Plenty for pups to see, smell, and play with. We are currently living in shared housing and are not readily available to host pets in our own home. Although some day we hope to have our own home and be able to extend these services.
About: I have experience caring for cats with different personalities, routines, and comfort levels, including shy cats, senior cats, playful cats, and cats that prefer a quieter approach. I understand that many cats need patience, space, and consistency, especially when their owners are away. During cat drop-in visits, I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, brushing if requested, and photo updates. I also pay attention to changes in appetite, litter box use, hiding behavior, and overall comfort so owners can be updated if anything seems unusual. I am also comfortable helping with routine cat medication when clear written instructions are provided, including oral medication, liquid medication, eye drops, ear drops, and topical medication. My goal is to keep your cat’s routine calm, familiar, and stress-free while you are away.
About: I love interacting with my cat Smokey who I adopted from the shelter a year ago! It immediately activated my cat mom mode where I quickly accumulated toys, scratch posts, cardboard beds, cat carriers, walking leashes...you name it. I love to spoil him and enjoy the presence of animals and their purrsonalities, so looking forward to meeting new pets and families. Perhaps even a per play date as Smokey does not have a companion at home :) I would say I am a very patient, understanding, and warm person to approach and flexible to many situations!

“Jing was truly amazing with my dogs! From the very first meeting, they were instantly calm around her, which never happens with new people. She has such a gentle, grounding presence, and you can tell she genuinely understands animals. Before the actual sitting, she even took them for a walk at the park to help them get comfortable with her, which I appreciated so much. Throughout the day, Jing kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. She was incredibly communicative, reliable, and attentive to every detail. My dogs absolutely adored her, and I could see how well cared for and relaxed they were when I got home. I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful sitter!”

“Luis was wonderful! It was my first time using rover and I couldn’t imagine a better sitter than Luis. We left our 11 month husky for one day and she normally will have separation anxiety from me and my partner. Luis was so kind to send photos and videos throughout the day to ease our worry. Ruby was well behaved and calm and most importantly she had such a fun time, they played, he gave her favorite treats. I know our husky has a new best friend. Will definitely be re booking again!”
“The response time was impressively fast, far exceeding my expectations.Offered me meet and greet which I couldn’t due to last minute request, but managed well which greatly enhanced my overall experience.”

About: Hello! My name is Jianlei. I’ve had the privilege of caring for three dogs, from their playful puppy days through their senior years. Over time, I’ve learned how to meet their changing needs with patience, love, and attention. Every dog has their own unique personality, and it brings me real joy to understand and care for them as individuals. When you entrust your dog to me, I will personally care for them with the same love and attention I give my own family. Your dog will receive plenty of personal attention in a calm, quiet, and loving environment. Your dog will enjoy 24/7 companionship while staying with me. I spend most of my time at home, and whenever I go out—whether for a walk, a trip to the park, or even a quick errand—I will take your dog with me whenever possible. The only exceptions are essential trips to places where dogs are not allowed, such as the grocery store or medical appointments. We have a cozy, welcoming home with a fenced yard and a small garden where your dog can safely relax and play during the day. On weekends, if the weather and schedule allow, I’ll also take your dog to a larger park where they can explore, enjoy new sights and smells, and safely socialize with other dogs. While staying with us, your dog will receive gentle brushing, plenty of affection, playtime, and cuddles every day. If you’d like, I can also trim their nails weekly to help keep them comfortable and healthy. I also offer homemade meals prepared with fresh, organic ingredients and tailored to your dog’s dietary needs and preferences. This is an optional add-on service with an additional fee. Feel free to ask me about meal options and pricing. Your dog is welcome to explore all areas of our home except the bed. If needed, I can also prepare a quiet, private room where they can relax and have their own space. I understand that dogs need both freedom and a sense of security, and I’ll do everything I can to help them feel calm, comfortable, and loved while they’re away from home. I truly look forward to welcoming your furry friend into our home! Our Daily & Weekly Schedule Here’s a little glimpse into the daily and weekly routine your pet will enjoy while staying with us: 🌅 Morning: Start the day with a refreshing walk around the neighborhood to get some fresh air and stretch those legs. Feed breakfast and make sure everyone is happy and relaxed. 🌞 Late Morning / Early Afternoon: Brush and gently groom your dog and any of our cat friends together, keeping everyone looking their best and feeling comfy. Lots of cuddles, ear scratches, and gentle pats to show them they’re loved. Playtime in our yard or indoor playroom, depending on the weather. 🐾 Afternoon: Another walk to break up the day, offering new scents and sights to explore. More brushing, especially if your dog is a floofy friend who needs extra coat care! 🍽️ Evening: Dinner time for everyone! Relaxed playtime, snuggling up together, and winding down for a calm night. 🗓️ Weekly Highlights: Monday to Friday: Follow the daily routine above—two walks a day, daily grooming, play, and lots of love. Weekends (Saturday & Sunday): We’ll take your dog to a larger local park so they can meet new friends, play in the grass, and sniff around new areas! Extra playtime, more exploring, and a chance to socialize with other dogs if they’re comfortable. Weekly Grooming: Once a week, if you’d like, I’ll trim your dog’s nails to keep them comfortable and healthy. Your pet’s happiness and comfort are always my top priority. Each day is filled with gentle care, play, and affection, ensuring they feel at home even when they’re away from you. Let me know if there’s anything special your dog or cat enjoys—I’d love to make their stay extra special! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. Our home is a cozy and secure place, with a fenced yard and a little garden where your dog can explore safely and freely. Just a minute’s walk from our house is a lovely small park, perfect for short walks and a bit of fresh air. Inside, your dog is welcome to move freely through every room in our home—except for the bed—so they can feel part of the family. If you’d prefer, I can also set up a separate, quiet room just for your dog, giving them their own cozy retreat. If your dog needs a bit of extra space or privacy, I’m always happy to create a dedicated room for them. I understand how important it is to create a space where your dog feels relaxed and cared for, especially when they’re away from you. I’m here to offer them all the love and attention they need, so they can feel safe, calm, and truly at home.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for around 6 years, mostly through caring for my own dog. I’ve also helped care for both dogs and cats for friends and family. I’ve loved animals, especially dogs and cats, all my life, and I’ve spent a lot of time learning about them, including how they behave, what they enjoy, what makes them comfortable, etc. I’m patient, gentle, and I truly enjoy being around animals. I always do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and loved, because they deserve nothing less. Whether it’s walks, meals, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels cared for and appreciated like part of the family. I’m a college student and work part-time, but I can be flexible mornings, afternoons, evenings, nights, and weekends. I’m happy to check in, walk, or spend time with your pet, and I’ll follow any routine they’re used to! I’m unable to care for dogs in my home because my dog gets nervous around other dogs, and I want to keep all pets safe and comfortable. However, I’m very careful and respectful when caring for pets in your home. I follow your instructions closely, stick to your routines and house rules, keep the environment clean and calm, and ensure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they get plenty of fresh water, exercise, and affection.

“Eric is fantastic with my dog, Dexter! He comes by a few times per week mid-day to walk and play with Dexter while I'm at work, and sends me photos and videos of Dexter enjoying his visit. At my request, Eric gives Dexter his daily favorite green treat and wipes his paws after his walks. Communication is quick and easy, and Eric is very trustworthy entering my home and leaving it all locked up once each visit is complete. I'd definitely recommend Eric for any service he provides on Rover. Thanks Eric!! -Ryan”

Because of my PTA program, I'm only available during the mornings on Mon/Wed/Thu. On all other days, I have open availability to stay as long as your pets need! While I cannot take pets to my own home, I can take care of pets in other settings so long as the owner is comfortable and aware of where I am with their pet.
About: I cared for dogs for about two years. I would walk them and play with them. I also work part-time at a pet supplies and I know what kind of food is suitable for dogs with different problems. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with dogs and cats! I can provide door-to-door service after 12 noon on weekdays and weekends. But sometimes it might not work.

About: Your dog’s home-away-from-home—where they feel safe and loved. I offer small-scale boarding (not a kennel). This is a great option for pet parents seeking a safer alternative to kennels. Training-informed, positive-reinforcement environment. Deep experience with rescue, reactive, separation anxiety and other special-needs dogs who require a calm home environment. Home atmosphere + constant human presence. My home is quiet with a front yard that feels like you're in a small forest. Good vibes all around. I'm truly an all-around dog lover, and I and have a passion for saving, fostering, and boarding if it means a happier life for a dog and his/her human. I've had a passion for caring for dogs since I was a teenager. I've rescued several dogs from a high-kill shelter and fostered them until we found a forever home. I currently work closely with a couple of dog rescues that help find fosters or adopters for high-energy dogs in overcrowded shelters, once they've gone through an evaluation stage and the necessary training. I have dog training knowledge, and I'm also trained in dog psychology. My goal is to work with service dogs and get them ready for their new human. I have experience working with extra large breeds as well as the cute, tiny ones. I also have experience with special need dogs who require medication, If you have a special needs dog, I have experience in: Oral medication administration Injected medication administration Senior dog experience Special needs dog experience I currently work part time from my home office and tend to my plants which allows me plenty of time to devote to your furry family member. I enjoy time at home, painting, reading, cooking, gardening, playing my congas or simply relaxing in front of the television. I enjoy caring for pets as if they were my own, which means getting to know their personalities and what they like to do for fun. I have grassy areas to play and lounge out in the sun. A possible daily routine: A morning walk or let them roam the yard (depends on the owners choice), followed by breakfast and some loving. Afternoon time consists of potty breaks and some play time in the yard or indoors and some afternoon treats for everyone before they nap. I have plenty of room for your pet to run around or just lounge. I don't have any pets (as I have been fostering) or children, and there's very little to nothing that your pet could get into. My house is secured and all the windowns and doors will remain secured while your pet is visiting. My yard has a five and a half foot fence and it's secured all the way around. I have grassy areas to play and lounge out in the sun. If I'm pet sitting at your location, I will follow the list of do's and don't and will always treat your home with respect.
About: Hello! My name is Helayna! I have been around big dogs, small dogs, and cats for as long as I can remember. I am 31 and I have had a golden retriever and two German shepherds. I am very comfortable with big dogs and have taken care of a lab, huskies, and chow chows just to name a few. I love playing with them and making sure they get the exercise they need. I am also a huge cat person too. I have always had cats, some super friendly, others were chill and do their own thing. I currently have one baby (profile picture, Pepper) and she is my everything. My schedule is very flexible and able to accept last minute bookings, drop ins, and house sittings. I have house sat for family and friends and their family and their friends as well. Pets are more than animals that live in your house, they are your children and need to be taken care of by people that would treat your babies like their own. I would love to meet you and your babies to give you peace of mind they are being taken care of when you are out. I am currently doing Rover full time so I am able to give all my time and attention to your pats. Monday-Friday I am available as early as 7am and can be done at 9pm at the latest. I will be able to meet and greet last minute if something came up and you need someone to watch your pet. I have a smaller patchy backyard with no dogs in the back. I do have 3 cats in my house and my area does have stray cats that roam around the backyard that sun bathe.
“Justin was awesome and a perfect first impression for using Rover for my first time. Always on time and sent lots of updates and pictures and was so thoughtful and caring for my big Australian Shepherd!! He even gave him extra exercise by jogging with him from time to time! Marley is a bit reactive and doesn’t always like strangers but he loved Justin right away, he must have sensed his dog loving good vibes. 100% recommend him to anyone, especially those with bigger dogs worried about finding someone that can control their dog. 10 stars / 5 thanks a million Justin!!!”
About: I have 20 years of experience in dog care and can take house and yard and can also walk the dog on time. I’ve been raising dogs for a while now. It’s a joyful experience filled with playful moments and challenges. Every day, I learn something new about their behavior and needs. They bring so much happiness and companionship into my life. It’s amazing how much love and loyalty they show. 1. Feeding: • Once or twice a day depending on the animal and vet recommendations. 2. Fresh Water: • Change water at least once daily. 3. Exercise/Playtime: • Dogs need walks (15–30minutes depending on breed). 4. Grooming (as needed): • Brushing, checking for ticks/fleas, especially for long-haired animals. 5. Clean-ups: • Scoop litter boxes, clean up after walks, or spot-clean cages. Routine Care Includes: • Feeding and Watering: According to the pet’s normal schedule. • Exercise & Play: Walks for dogs, play sessions for cats or small animals. • Medication Administration: If required — pills, drops, or injections (if trained). • Litter Box or Yard Clean-Up: Scooping, changing litter, picking up after walks. • Home Care: Bringing in mail, watering plants, light tidying up, alternating lights or blinds to make the home look lived in.

“We had a great experience with Eric. He is kind & easy going, kept me updated with photos& videos, attentive to my senior dog ‘s needs & followed care instructions, including giving medications AM& PM. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a sitter in the area.”
“Steven was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. My wife and I always have family house/pet sit when we go out of town, so leaving them with a sitter had us a bit anxious. During the meet and greet, Steven immediately put us at ease with his kindhearted and soft nature which made us confident in his ability to provide excellent care. While we were gone, steven provided updates with pictures every day, and we could see that they were happy, relaxed, and enjoying thier time with him. Steven was also very accommodating as far as drop offs and pick ups. We absolutely plan on entrusting steven with our pups again in the future. Thank you, Steven!”
“This is my second time using Qiting to sit for my fur baby. She stayed with her a week this time. I love how she sends me updates everyday, pics of her even eating her dinner. So pleased with her communication her service. My Harley loves her too. Will definitely use her again and I highly recommend her services. Best sitter ever!”
“Amazing experience! My 2 dogs stayed with Jianlei for a few nights and I would definitely book another stay for them in the future. With a park right next door, my dogs were able to take frequent potty breaks and walks. Jianlei was very responsive and sent pictures/updates in the morning and evening which definitely helped with my peace of mind, especially since I have a senior dog. My dogs thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Thank you so much!”
“My dogs Teddy and Moose love staying at Ming Chia’s for boarding. I really appreciate that she’s so attentive towards the dogs and reports any health issues she might notice. She’s always sending photos/videos and giving the dogs treats. I feel at ease leaving them with her on long trips!”
“Booboo and I had a great experience with Yifan. She asked good questions, followed my detailed instructions, and provided updates with pictures twice a day. She was careful to make sure Booboo didn't jump and got her daily sunbathing in. Booboo is a senior dog and has anxiety but I could tell from the pictures that Booboo acclimated to her environment and enjoyed her time with Yifan. I'd 100% book with her again. :)”
“We hadn’t taken an overseas vacation in over five years because it’s always been so hard for us to leave our dogs, and honestly, we struggled to find someone we truly trusted. But after our meet and greet with Janelle and Alvin, I immediately felt at ease and knew our babies would be in great hands. I’m so happy to say that instinct was absolutely right. They took care of our two dogs for two days, and the entire experience was seamless. Janelle was incredible with communication! She sent updates and photos regularly without me ever needing to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Both Janelle and Alvin have such a calm, kind demeanor, and their home is clean, cozy, and clearly a safe space for pets. One of our dogs is usually very anxious and slow to warm up to new people, but he surprised us by opening up to them right away. That alone speaks volumes. I can’t recommend them enough, and we will absolutely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you Janelle and Alvin for taking such good care of our babies!”
“Georgina and her family were incredibly amazing with our 2 dogs for 4-5 days. They were patient with us during the meet and greet and then sent daily updates, we were concerned the dogs would be sad or confused but they had the best time at Georgina’s house! I highly recommend her service and would book her again in the future.”

“My dog had a wonderful time and was very well taken care of. Luis stayed in touch with me the entire time, sending photos and videos that gave me great peace of mind. It was clear that he treated my dog with love and dedication. When I went to pick him up, my dog was happy and relaxed. I would definitely recommend his services and will gladly leave my dog with him again in the future.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Mi perro se la pasó de maravilla y estuvo muy bien cuidado.

“The best of what she does.I have Been leaving my princess with her every year for at least the past three years. I and my family trust her keeps us up dated all the time. We be back 😎”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I was honestly a little nervous — but Jing completely put my mind at ease. He was absolutely amazing with my dog. He has a huge yard where my dog, Simba, got plenty of playtime, and he kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos throughout his stay, which I really appreciated. I could tell my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. To top it off, he even sent him home with a toy as a gift, which was such a thoughtful touch. I’m so grateful I found Jing and will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend!”
“Yuhong took care of my kitty while I was on a long vacation. We met prior to ensure Meru could meet Yuhong and it was clear Meru was going to be in great hands. Usually my neighbors will feed my cats while I’m on trips, but one of my cats crossed the rainbow bridge recently, and it gave me such peace of mind that Meru was not alone and had ample sweet and caring company with Yuhong and her husband. Meru had never been away from our home so she (and I) was nervous at first, but warmed up to Yuhong quickly. Yuhong played with Meru twice a day to keep her spirits up. I’m grateful this worked out and to have found a wonderful sitter moving forward!”
“We really appreciated Lisa (and her family’s) care for our dog Kunga! She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and sent updates. Kunga loved her time there. Would totally leave Kunga with Lisa again.”
“Sundae loved her stay with Yang and his family! She was wagging her tail outside the house the moment she arrived and came home very happy. Yang sent updates daily. It’s much easier to leave when your pup is so well cared for. We would happily rebook again!”
“Jessica and her family make our 2 Labs feel right at home. Our dogs are always excited to go there and the pictures Jessica shares encourage us while we are away and missing them.”
“Partheng took great care of our two frenchies and we could see that they really enjoyed their time there. We will be booking with him in the future and highly recommend his boarding!”
