“Irina and her family were absolutely amazing! This was my first time boarding my puppy who requires a lot of care and attention. I could tell my puppy was cared for and loved with Irina, which is all we want as pet parents. She sent regular photos/videos and updates to me that put me at ease. I would definitely go to her again :)”
“First time with Briana. Our fur babies stayed with her for 7 days. Receiving pictures on a day to day basis from Briana, gave me comfort and felt safe. I found me a doggies sitter that I can trust.”
“I was nervous about leaving my dog for a few days for a work trip, but I appreciate that Tammy was open to doing a pre-meeting to meet my dog and put me at ease. I also appreciate that Tammy kept me updated with pictures everyday while I was traveling. Would book again!”
“We had such a great experience with Zhuoya! They took such wonderful care of our dog and treated her with so much kindness and attention. We really appreciated all of the updates, pictures, and photos throughout her stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made everything so easy for us. Most importantly, our dog had such a great time and came home happy! It was clear she felt comfortable and loved while she was there. We would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”
“Kirsten was an amazing sitter. She paid great attention to our care instructions. Cooper had fun with her kids who were gentle, loving, and respectful. Cooper seemed very happy during and after his stay. Ca’t wait to be back.”
“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Florene was fantastic! Our dog was there 5 nights and not only played hard with other dogs, but was loved & cared for. Our 1.5 yr old pup got some training while there as well which we appreciated! Cooper came back happy and tired which is great! We knew he was doing well the entire stay because photos and updates were sent frequently which we loved! Thank you!”
“We couldn't be any happier with the care that Naiomie gave to our very spoiled fur baby, Colby Jaxx. This was the first time we've left him with someone other than family members. We were a hesitant about leaving him with someone we... or he... didn't know but after meeting Naiomie at drop off made us feel completely relaxed. We got daily pictures and videos of Colby Jaxx which were so awesome to see him interacting with her and the "friends" Colby Jaxx got to meet and play with. Along with the pics and videos, Naiomie would tell specifics about Colby... for example, he would cry a little at bedtime when he couldn't physically see her and she would let me know the different things she was doing to try to help him settle. Even as far as making it so that he could see into her room to know he wasn't alone. I would HIGHLY recommend using Naiomie. I know when we have a need again, she will be the first person we call. THANK YOU NAIOMIE! (p.s. Colby Jaxx misses you and his new friends). :)”
“Denise is a dream caretaker of our pup Didi. Super good experience from start to finish. Very communicative. She cares so much about our fur baby. Pics and video updates were great. We had so much faith and trust that Didi was being cared for and enjoying her time while we were out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Catherine and Ernie are a sweet couple that love fur friends. They properly treated our girl when she got a little cut on her tail, sent us pictures every day, and are great communicators! Our Hazel came home tired and happy.”
“Annie was great, she accommodated her schedule during Thanksgiving break to help us board our dog while visiting family. We appreciate her flexibility and will definitely use her services again.”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“Lori is a wonderful dog sitter. I was worried at first because my puppy Hazel was only 10 weeks old when she stayed with her. She keeps me updated by sending pictures. I will definitely use her service again. ”
“Rekha and her husband were amazing with my Tyson. Tyson had an extended stay with Rekha. She sent me regular updates and pics of Tyson throughout his stay. Will definitely book again !”
“Qiana and Deuce were so amazing to us! They took us in last minute and was very flexible and understanding with modifications! Pictures and videos were sent throughout the whole time. Plus, they gave her a gift box at the end of her stay! 5 stars and would definitely take Azora back!”
“Wendy made my boys and me comfortable during their stay with her. I never had any concerns and she sent me a pic and vid during their stay. They looked super comfortable and even made a new friend in her own fur baby! Wonton is tuckered out from playing! Thank you again Wendy!”
“Ceudi and her wonderful family were great sitters for our senior Boxer (11yr). She was attentive to his medical needs (medicine and care) and stubborn habits. She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
“Cole is the best! She has taken great care of our dog Harley for a few years now while we enjoy summer vacation. She gives Harley the care and attention that she needs while offering playtime with her own dog Aston. She keeps us up to date with pictures and messages daily and provides special treats that she knows Harley loves . I am so thankful we found Cole and we highly recommend her services.”

“We can’t recommend Kaime enough! She took amazing care of our senior cat, who is high-needs, high anxiety, and has some weird cat quirks. He warmed right up to her. She went over and above to make sure he was comfortable, and sent us thoughtful and detailed Rover Cards with photos of our cat while we were away. It was our first time using Rover and didn’t know what to expect, but we’re so glad and grateful that we connected with Kaime. Thank you so much Kaime.”
“Patrick took good care of our pets. He was on time and took pics. Going to book our next trip with him in a couple of weeks. We felt real comfortable leaving him in our house with our furbabies.”

About: Welcome to my profile, I want to be completely transparent and as communicative as I can when it comes to being interested with the care of your loved one, your pet 🐈⬛🐕 I have had the pleasure of sitting and living with cats since a young age, although I currently don't own any cars, I do enjoy being with them. I do care for and love 💕 on my sister's precious little ball of fur and she's made my life more fulfilling.

“Amy was great! We felt so reassured that our kitty was getting the attention she needed while we were gone. I appreciated the daily photo updates and could tell she took great care of our girl.”
About: I've had a cat for 3 years and I'm looking to gain more experience by pet-sitting cats in my neighborhood. I enjoy reading and learning about cat psychology and behavior through books, magazines and experiences with my own cat. I understand cat body language and know that each cat is different and has a unique personality that deserves to be understood and respected.

About: Aside from having cared for my toy poodle for 12 years until he passed, I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family either during the day or entire vacation. Followed owners’ instructions and gave needed updates on pets’ wellbeing. I’m currently a full time student at community college Monday through Thursday, so while I am capable of being home in between classes, your pets will be able to have my full attention and care Friday through Sunday nights. I have a two story house with a fenced yard for your pets to play. I will abide by whatever instructions required to care for your babies, crate and frequently give potty breaks and walks. Aside from that, I would love to allow them to wander around and lay on the couch.
About: Loving, Experienced Care for Your Dogs 🐾 I’ve been around dogs and caring for family dogs since I was 10 years old, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I treat my dogs like family my dog Hunter and my dog Rose is truly like my children and I would provide that same level of love, attention, and care to your dog. I’m currently available and working from home, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for dogs. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends depending on your scheduling needs. I have a fully vaccinated household with just myself, my husband, and our two dogs, Hunter and Rose. Hunter is a very friendly, well-behaved dog who enjoys going to the dog park almost every day. He gets along wonderfully with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities and is also very friendly with people and children. Rose is our sweet girl who is lovely, affectionate, and incredibly smart. She has a wonderful personality and is comfortable around other dogs. Both Hunter and Rose are used to being part of our everyday family life, so visiting dogs will have plenty of opportunities for companionship and socialization if they are comfortable with it. A Comfortable, Dog-Friendly Home I have a home with a private backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. I **pick up after the dogs every day** to keep the yard clean and comfortable. They have elevated dog beds for relaxing, a kiddie pool filled with toys for playtime, and a backyard fan to help keep them comfortable when spending time outside. Dogs staying with us will also have **24/7 access to the inside of our home through a large doggy door**, so they can move freely between the house and backyard whenever they need to. They will be treated as part of the family and are welcome to spend as much time indoors as they want. In addition to plenty of playtime and attention throughout the day, visiting dogs will receive **at least one walk every day**, with additional activity and outdoor time depending on their individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is to make every dog staying with us feel safe, loved, comfortable, and at home while their family is away. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I want you to have peace of mind knowing they are receiving attentive, loving care in a home environment. In addition I send pictures and videos daily to give you updates on how your doggy is doing. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because my dogs are a big part of my everyday life. I’m currently available during the week and have a flexible schedule as I work from home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. I’m able to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, meals, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also make sure the yard is cleaned daily and that the dogs have a safe, comfortable environment to relax and play. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel loved, happy, and well cared for while their families are away. I care for pets as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, meals, and potty breaks. In my home, they have access to a safe, clean, and comfortable indoor and outdoor space. I also follow each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for.
About: Being a dog mom myself has taught me how different every pup can be. Some want to play nonstop, some prefer to stay close to you, and others need a little time to feel comfortable in a new environment. I’m patient and attentive to those differences. I pay attention to body language, energy levels, eating habits, potty routines, and overall behavior so I can recognize when a pup is happy, needs a break, or needs a little extra reassurance. I want every dog staying with me to feel seen, understood, and cared for. ❤️ The Care I Provide Your pup’s stay is more than simply having someone watch them. I want them to have a fun, comfortable experience while maintaining the routines they’re used to. I can provide: * 🐾 Plenty of love, attention & companionship * 🏃 Daily exercise and supervised play * 🌳 Safe outdoor time in our fenced yard * 💤 Quiet time and opportunities to rest * 💊 Oral medication administration * 🐶 Experience with senior dogs * 📸 Regular photo & message updates * ❤️ Personalized care based on your pup’s personality and routine * 🐶 Socialization with your own dogs * 🧸 Lots of play/enrichment * ❤️ Individual attention * 🛏️ A comfortable home environment * 🐾 Experience handling multiple dogs * 💬 Consistent communication with owners ⭐ Why Choose Me? Your dog isn’t just a booking. They’re a guest in our home. 🏡 I take pride in creating a clean, safe, loving environment where pups can be themselves while their families are away. I’m attentive to the little things, communicate consistently, and genuinely enjoy getting to know every dog that stays with us. And because I love building relationships with both pups and their families, repeat guests are especially special to me. 🐾❤️ Hi! I’m Naiomie, and I’m a loving, responsible dog mom who truly understands how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. ❤️ When your pup stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can relax, play, get plenty of attention, and feel right at home. I enjoy getting to know each pup’s unique personality, routine, and preferences so I can provide care that’s personalized to them. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, a professional cuddler, or needs a little extra patience and reassurance, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including senior dogs. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications and making sure each pup’s individual needs are followed carefully. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, which is why communication is very important to me. I love keeping pet parents updated with photos, messages, and little moments from their pup’s stay so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for. 🐶💕 I’m flexible with advance notice and do my best to accommodate each family’s needs. My goal is simple: for your pup to feel loved, safe, and completely at home while you’re away. ❤️ I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a beautiful park outside my home to take your pup on walks and get active.

“Irina is a lifesaver! I reached out at the last minute the night before, and she responded immediately, accommodating our needs. I have two small senior dogs, and she was very attentive to them. She sent me videos and photos of them throughout the entire sitting. I felt very relieved knowing my babies were safe and at peace. We will definitely hire Irina again for all our future sitting needs.”
“Florence is the best!!! She took amazing care of my boy Milo. She also sent us lots pictures throughout the day. It was such a great experience, we will definitely be taking Milo back to hang out with Florence and her pups.”
“Annie took care of our puppy Finn on Thanksgiving when we were visiting our out of town family. She sent consistent updates and it was obvious Finn had a great time! Would definitely use her again if we are ever in town 🥰”
“2nd time and just as amazing! My dog loves it there and you can tell they take great care of dogs and treat them like their own. Highly recommend and I am definitely using them again. Great at communication and so pleasant to interact with!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for my own Beagle, who is friendly, well-socialized, and accustomed to living with people. Through daily walks, feeding, training reinforcement, grooming, and routine health care, I’ve learned how to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment for dogs. My home is a clean, smoke-free single-family house with a secure fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and relax. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time so that every guest receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, quiet naps, or extra cuddles, I’ll follow your care instructions carefully and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences, so my background is closely connected to health, medications, biology, and careful observation. My training has made me very attentive to details such as changes in appetite, energy level, behavior, hydration, and daily routine, and I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, including medication schedules when needed. This scientific background naturally carries over into how I care for pets—I tend to notice small changes, keep routines consistent, and take safety and wellbeing seriously. I have a flexible schedule and spend plenty of time at home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already care for my own friendly Beagle and provide regular walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I am available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, with flexible drop-off and pick-up times. My home is clean, quiet, and dog-friendly, with a fully fenced backyard that I specifically designed with my dog in mind. I wanted him to have a safe and comfortable outdoor space for potty breaks, playtime, exploring, and relaxing, so the backyard was planned to be both secure and easy for dogs to enjoy under supervision. I understand how important routine and a comfortable environment are, especially when a dog is staying somewhere unfamiliar. Dogs are never left outside unattended and always have access to fresh water, cozy indoor spaces, and plenty of attention. I treat every dog like part of the family and communicate regularly with owners through updates, photos, and videos. Please let me know about your dog’s daily routine, feeding schedule, potty schedule, energy level, personality, and any medical needs or behavioral concerns. For everyone’s safety and comfort, I prefer dogs that are friendly with other dogs since I have a male Beagle at home. My home is clean, quiet, and pet-friendly, with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time. I have a friendly, well-socialized Beagle, so I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable and maintaining a consistent routine. Dogs are never left outside unattended and always have access to fresh water, cozy indoor spaces, and plenty of attention. I treat every dog like a member of the family and communicate regularly with owners through updates and photos.
“Lori is great! Zoey was instantly comfortable on the first meeting. I don't think she missed me at all! Throughout the day I received updated photos of Zoey's day & adventures! I'm definitely a returning customer.”
About: Welcome to my profile, my name is CeCe, I am a fellow fur baby mama and overall animal lover! 🫶🏽 I have a passion for love and deep care of all living beans 🫘 If you choose me as your pet sitter/walker I offer my utmost care and genuine devotion to your pet. I understand how scary and how unknown having a stranger come over and all the uncertainty that all comes with. With me, I prioritize communication, clarity and honesty. Book a call or video chat with me before we set anything in stone to get to know me and for me to get to know you and your pet, no pressure, just openness and trust 😺🐈⬛🐩🐕 Instead of me putting in what exactly fits into my daily or weekly routine here, I am an open communicator and I prioritize a two-way communication line.

About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am experienced with puppies, senior pets, medications, basic first aid, and I pride myself on being dependable, loving, patient, and attentive. My home offers a fully fenced yard, locked gate, covered patio, and dog door access for a safe and comfortable stay. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, daycare, or overnight care, they’ll be loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I walk every morning.

My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable and secure, and for every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is in trusted hands.
“Rekha is very caring and made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy in her care. He is usually timid; however, he took an immediate liking to her. She took him for a walk and gave him lots of attention. I will definitely rebook her again!”
“If you're looking for great customer service and good animal care experience ... Amanda's your gal. She listened to my needs, over-delivered and was super communicative with me during Crawford's stay at her home. It was my first time with a dog sitter (& I knew I could trust Rover, because I'm a Rover sitter & know they do a background check) ... but I was still nervous. My dog is 5 months young and although well-adjusted & potty trained, is very vulnerable. She was sensitive to this; I left him with her feeling i could trust her 100% ... I received photos and updates the entire time I was away. Highly recommend.”
“June is the best! Bella spent the day with June and her dog Ceaser. Bella is a special needs dog and June knew just how to work with her to make her feel comfortable. June made sure to keep me posted and updated on Bella throughout her stay. She sent lots of pictures so I could see how she was doing. Her dog Ceaser was great with Bella too. Bella has become very attached to June. She also loves Ceaser, her new gentle giant friend. I strongly recommend June if you’re looking for a very responsible caring sitter for your pup. I know Bella is in good hands with June, and will be using her as our sitter in the future.”
“Wendy was so kind with my baby and helped make sure he adjusted well. She showed so much care and my baby came back as happy as can be. She was also so understanding when we needed to switch our pick up and drop off times. Thank you so much Wendy. Would definitely book again!”
About: We've had dogs for 14 years, 3 in total. More recently we got a puppy in 2025 and trained her ourselves: she now potties outside, plays fetch, is crate trained, and is an excellent car passenger and errand buddy. I work from home full-time and my husband works from home 4 days a week, and we both have generally flexible schedules. Our son is in school during the daytime. We only petsit when at least one of us is home, and we'll update our schedule to reflect that. We have a large, fenced-in background with grass and plenty of space to play. We have many mature trees which provide shade during the summer months. Pups will be outside frequently, and inside for naps and and breaks.
“Carla is so sweet and attentive. She has been so good woth Odin and he gets so excited to see her everyday. She constantly updates me with photos and videos of Odin thru out the day making it so much easier on me knowing she's being so attentive. She is very knowledgeable and flexible with the times making vets appts a breeze!! Highly recommend.”
“Domynique was amazing with my puppy Ollie. She sent updates and would provide walks along with just great quality time. She was super accommodating to my commute that she volunteered to meet me half way. Ollie always came home ready for a nap after a great day with Domynique, will definitely be booking again and would recommend 🥰”

About: I currently have two dogs at home that have been raised since they were puppies. I provide consistent routines for our dogs and am confident in my ability to provide stability for your dogs while you are away from home. My home has a fenced off area indoors and outdoors to give your dogs plenty of space to roam around and not have to be fully cooped up all day. I will help your dogs have a home away from home. I currently have a full time job, but my job also allows for work from home so my schedule is based on my ability to be home during your pet’s stay. Even if I need to be in office, I can come home during my lunch break for 30 minutes to tend to the dogs. On weekends I will be home and only go out for a few hours at a time for groceries. I am very familiar with crate training and other simple tricks for dogs. I always feed all dogs separately to ensure no food guarding occurs and we monitor the dogs throughout meal time. I am comfortable with feeding basic medications if needed.

“Pedro did a great job today. We had to make a change in schedule at the last minute so that I could go to a medical appointment. He picked up Kody and kept him until I returned. Kody had a great time and was a tired puppy when he got home! Thanks Pedro!”
About: I have been a proud parent to many labs. Few dogs can match their energy. I look forward to loving your pups like I love mine! I work a hybrid schedule and am typically available, throughout the day, 5+ days a week (including weekends). I am an avid walker and used to walking multiple miles a day with my dog. My availability is relatively well planned out, so if you request a sitting in advance, I can always let you know if I will be available. I love all of my pets as if they were my children. I love dogs and cats more than anything. I have two lovely cats and have had two magnificent labs in the past. There are few dogs that can throw more at you than a lab, so I'm sure I can handle your pup!

About: My ultimate goal and promise is to provide the safety and love for your pets as if you were still home.

I have grown up and owned many animals ranging from dogs, cats, fish, turtles, and hamsters. I can confidently go on long walks or even be a cuddle buddy. Working part time on the weekends, I have almost my whole day during the week to take care of your fur babies.

I grew up training my dog in 4-H and have raised puppies as well as kittens. I work part time on the weekends so I am free during the week to care for your pets if you are at work or on vacation. I have a fenced backyard and no other pets in my home. I will care for and clean up after your pet whether they are in your home or mine. I live walkable distance to parks and dog parks.

About: Loving, Experienced Care for Your Dogs 🐾 I’ve been around dogs and caring for family dogs since I was 10 years old, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I treat my dogs like family my dog Hunter and my dog Rose is truly like my children and I would provide that same level of love, attention, and care to your dog. I’m currently available and working from home, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for dogs. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends depending on your scheduling needs. I have a fully vaccinated household with just myself, my husband, and our two dogs, Hunter and Rose. Hunter is a very friendly, well-behaved dog who enjoys going to the dog park almost every day. He gets along wonderfully with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities and is also very friendly with people and children. Rose is our sweet girl who is lovely, affectionate, and incredibly smart. She has a wonderful personality and is comfortable around other dogs. Both Hunter and Rose are used to being part of our everyday family life, so visiting dogs will have plenty of opportunities for companionship and socialization if they are comfortable with it. A Comfortable, Dog-Friendly Home I have a home with a private backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. I **pick up after the dogs every day** to keep the yard clean and comfortable. They have elevated dog beds for relaxing, a kiddie pool filled with toys for playtime, and a backyard fan to help keep them comfortable when spending time outside. Dogs staying with us will also have **24/7 access to the inside of our home through a large doggy door**, so they can move freely between the house and backyard whenever they need to. They will be treated as part of the family and are welcome to spend as much time indoors as they want. In addition to plenty of playtime and attention throughout the day, visiting dogs will receive **at least one walk every day**, with additional activity and outdoor time depending on their individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is to make every dog staying with us feel safe, loved, comfortable, and at home while their family is away. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I want you to have peace of mind knowing they are receiving attentive, loving care in a home environment. In addition I send pictures and videos daily to give you updates on how your doggy is doing. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because my dogs are a big part of my everyday life. I’m currently available during the week and have a flexible schedule as I work from home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. I’m able to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, meals, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also make sure the yard is cleaned daily and that the dogs have a safe, comfortable environment to relax and play. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel loved, happy, and well cared for while their families are away. I care for pets as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, meals, and potty breaks. In my home, they have access to a safe, clean, and comfortable indoor and outdoor space. I also follow each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for.
About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

“First time with Briana. Our fur babies stayed with her for 7 days. Receiving pictures on a day to day basis from Briana, gave me comfort and felt safe. I found me a doggies sitter that I can trust.”
“I was nervous about leaving my dog for a few days for a work trip, but I appreciate that Tammy was open to doing a pre-meeting to meet my dog and put me at ease. I also appreciate that Tammy kept me updated with pictures everyday while I was traveling. Would book again!”
“Kirsten was an amazing sitter. She paid great attention to our care instructions. Cooper had fun with her kids who were gentle, loving, and respectful. Cooper seemed very happy during and after his stay. Ca’t wait to be back.”
“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“As a Rover member for almost 10 years, I can confidently say that Connor and his wife, Allison, are the best hosts I’ve ever worked with. I needed to find a sitter last minute for a family event, and Connor was incredibly flexible, accommodating, and responsive from the very beginning. Before I even confirmed the booking, he offered a meet and greet so I could see where our pup would be staying and make sure I felt comfortable with the accommodations—and they exceeded my expectations. He had a comfortable crate ready for her, plenty of yard space to play, and is conveniently located near a dog park. Throughout her stay, I received daily text and photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. And the photos said it all—our pup was all smiles, happily rolling around in the grass at the park and clearly having a great time. :) Knowing she was safe, comfortable, and genuinely enjoying herself made it so much easier to be away from her. Connor and Allison will absolutely be my first choice anytime we need a sitter from here on out. I can’t recommend them enough!”
“Florene was fantastic! Our dog was there 5 nights and not only played hard with other dogs, but was loved & cared for. Our 1.5 yr old pup got some training while there as well which we appreciated! Cooper came back happy and tired which is great! We knew he was doing well the entire stay because photos and updates were sent frequently which we loved! Thank you!”
“Catherine and Ernie are a sweet couple that love fur friends. They properly treated our girl when she got a little cut on her tail, sent us pictures every day, and are great communicators! Our Hazel came home tired and happy.”
“Annie was great, she accommodated her schedule during Thanksgiving break to help us board our dog while visiting family. We appreciate her flexibility and will definitely use her services again.”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“Rekha and her husband were amazing with my Tyson. Tyson had an extended stay with Rekha. She sent me regular updates and pics of Tyson throughout his stay. Will definitely book again !”
“Kenia was awesome with Benito and a great communication she would answer all of my questions and responses a few times my daughter would message to check up on him and she would quickly respond with updates. I was worried how my dog would act being his first time away but Kenia made me feel more at ease when leaving him. Kenia sent updates photos and videos he looked so happy and well taken care off. We were worried he wouldn't want to come home. Im glad a i made the right choice and if I ever have to leave Benito I would definitely have Kenia watch him again. If there were more stars she deserves them .. Thank you again Kenia.”

She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
