“Lupe and her family were wonderful to my dog Bruno. They took such great care of him and he’s not in. He’s not an easy dog. I recommend them highly. They were kind and considerate and I appreciate everything they did for my dog.”

“Randi was Awesome! I got plenty of pictures and updates on our girl Sami. She and her family treated Sami as their own, which was reflected in the cuddling pictures. I would and will try to schedule Randi for our future care needs.”

“Giezell and her family were amazing with our puppy. She accepted our very last minute request and even kept her a few hours extra when we wanted to spend more time in Tahoe for our son’s bday. She sent pictures and videos the entire time, took her for a walk and our puppy didn’t want to leave. Would def recommend her!!!”

“My Near just returned from an amazing 4 day holiday at Jacqueline's house , filled with all the cuddles from her sweet son, tasty treats (with my permission) and amazing care. I didn't worry one second because I received update messages and pictures in the morning and evening to update me on how Bear slept (in the morning) and how her day was (in the evening). Punctual, loving , excellent communication and receptive. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! Will be rebooking again!!!”

“Anthony is top-notch! He took great care of our King Charles Cavalier for four days. Anthony sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog playing with his dog, Kai. He took our dog on many walks to the local park and played fetch with the dogs his backyard. Anthony was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and had everything ready to go when it was time to take our dog home. I highly recommend Anthony for dog boarding and we will be rebooking with him in a few weeks.”

“Gidget had a blast staying a few days at Michael and Melissa's home. Bonus...she got to play with kids, Mr Bubbles and a bird!!!! Michael and Melissa were very accommodating. Gidget is looking forward to the next visit! Highly recommend for your furry family member if it's for a day or several days!”

“She is the BEST, I will definitely ask her first if I go on a family trip again, she made my shy puppy feel at home, kept me updated throughout my entire trip. Paloma loved her ❤️ thank you 😊”

“Wenchi was super sweet and provided me with updates and pictures of Cosmo during his stay with her! He was a very happy wiggly pup when I went to pick him up. Thank you!”


About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. From cats, to smaller dogs, to large golden doodles, I’ve had the pleasure of watching a variety of animals. I’ve watched animals overnight while administering medicine, so I have experience with both boarding and taking care of the animal’s health. That includes senior animals that need extra love in diapers or extra medicine. I also am pursuing an animals degree, so I understand the basic functions of animals. I work part time 3 days a week, but go home every two hours so I would be able to regularly check on your animal. The rest of my week is free and I would dedicate plenty of time to your pet. I have a fenced backyard with a doggie door that can be opened or closed. This allows animals to either have unlimited access to the outside or controlled access depending on the animal and owner’s preference. I have no resident animals in the house so your pet will receive all my attention! Two other adults in the house to give extra love!
“Jessica was incredible!! Twitch came back rested and calm, Jessica provided pictures and updates nearly everyday . We enjoyed our vacation without any stress knowing our dog was in such good hands. Would definitely board with Jessica in the future! Thanks again!”

“Sandra was an excellent caregiver. This was the first time I have ever boarded my cat and I should have done it for a shorter time or a trial. Sandra was very tuned in to my cats needs and kept us updated on how he was doing. We did pick him up early but not because of anything Sandra did, it was all me and my cats broken heart because I just left him. Thank you to Sandra for noticing our baby missed us. Next time I board him it will only be for a weekend or in my home where he is used to, but I would use Sandra again.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years. I also grew up in rural Oklahoma on a farm with many other animals, including dogs and cats. I love dogs and always worry when leaving my dog with anyone else. My philosophy is to treat someone else’s pet the way I would want my own pet to be treated and cared for. I will provide attention, pets, snuggles, walks playtime, and treats. Dogs are welcome to sleep next to me and my little dog and snuggle on the couch with us. I work full-time at an 8 to 5 type of job. Two days per week I go into the office for part of the day. My schedule is very flexible and I can work from home on different days when needed. I am off weekends and holidays. I will make sure your pet is safe is safe, cared for and loved. I take my own dog on walks to Pena Adobe and One Lake and around my gated apartment complex. My little dog is a white Maltipoo who is very sweet and friendly. Your dog will be safe and cared for with me. I can ensure regular feeding schedules, potty breaks and walks.
“They are great! This is the second time I have them babysit my 2 dogs. I love how I get picture updates on how my dogs are doing. Vivian and Matthew are so accommodating to making my dogs feel comfortable at their place and my schedule if I'm running late.”

“So grateful for Jason to take our bloodhound on last minutes notice. Our dog was well cared for and enjoyed being with Jason. It was very comforting seeing the pics Jason would send of our dog.”

“We had to board our beloved Coco for the very first time, and naturally we were very nervous about leaving her with anyone. From the moment we met Merilu, she made us feel comfortable and reassured that Coco would be in good hands. Merilu and her family took exceptional care of Coco and truly treated her like one of their own. They happily accommodated all of our requests, including not using a cage and allowing Coco to sleep on the bed, which meant a lot to us since Coco has never been crated. Throughout Coco’s stay, we received regular updates with photos and videos every day, along with quick responses whenever we had questions. Seeing Coco happy, playful, and comfortable gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we picked Coco up, she looked healthy, relaxed, and genuinely happy, which says everything about the love and care she received. It’s clear that Merilu has a true passion for animals and provides a safe, loving home rather than just a boarding service. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Coco received and wouldn’t hesitate to trust Merilu again. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with love, patience, and genuine affection, I highly recommend Merilu. Thank you for making Coco’s first boarding experience such a positive and stress-free one for both Coco and our family!”

About: I grew up with a cat named Domino and I helped take care of him for 14 years of my life. I then have helped take care of cats belonging to family and friends! I’ve taken care of house cats, outdoor cats, and even larger cats like Savannah cats.

“Elizabeth did her best to make sure my time spent away was completely worry free. She sent a bunch of pictures from every visit and made sure my cat was taken care of. Would 100% recommend!”


“Ashley was great with our older cat Cleo. I could tell from our meet and greet that Ashley would be good, as Cleo (who doesn’t typically like people) responded well to Ashley right away. Ashley showed up as scheduled every day to spend time with Cleo, sent pictures, and communicated quickly with us. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter!”

“Dawna was absolutely amazing!! Our kitties were well cared for! She even brought in our mail and took out the garbage cans, which we didn’t even ask her to do! Will definitely use her again!!!”

“Morgan was so wonderful! Needed a mid day drop-in for my senior dog. Reached out with only a day or so notice (my fault) and Morgan was able to help no problem! Always nice to have a sitter in the area you can count on and trust, Morgan is definitely on my list ᵕ̈”


About: I've grown up with cats as pets and have always loved getting to know their different personalities. I've also cat sat for friends and family over the years, and I treat every kitty like they're my own. One experience that's especially close to my heart was fostering a tiny kitten who was found outside with fading kitten syndrome. He needed lots of patience, gentle care, attention, and watching him grow stronger was incredibly rewarding.
“Our first time using this application/service for our furr babies. I picked Kendra and asked her if she could come over so we could meet each other and she could maybe meet our furr babies. After a quick tour and us chatting, 2 of our kitties that normally hide when “strangers” are in the home came out to investigate who she was. Our dog Penelope is a people person doggie and pretty much likes everyone. Our one cat Johnni is the most curious and will want to be seen and maybe be petted. We only needed our dog fed and potty break as the cats are on auto feeders. And after having met Kendra I was very comfortable that our animals would be well cared for and I booked her for a drop in. I left her a note for feeding Penelope and where she potties. Kendra kept me in the loop with texts and pictures of the animals. Everyone got their glamour shots but 1 kitty (she was an outdoor kitty and is weary of people until she comfortable with them). We are beyond happy with Kendra’s care of our animals, our home and will definitely be using her services again. Thank you Kendra for making me feel comfortable and knowing our furr babies would be well cared for even for a drop in. We’ll be booking again soon with you!”


About: I've always had a soft spot for cats and appreciate that they're all a little different. Some want to play and chat, while others prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. I understand how important routine is for cats, so I'll carefully follow your feeding schedule, keep litter boxes clean, spend time playing or cuddling (if they want it!), and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'll also send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your feline friend is happy and well cared for.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for cats of all personalities. I’m here to offer more than just feeding and litter box checks. I make time for play, affection, and companionship during every visit. Whether your cat is shy, playful, or somewhere in between, I create a safe, stress-free environment tailored to their comfort and routine.

“Shawna was amazing! Very communicative and sent lots and lots of photos. She made sure my little guy was very well cared for & even set up his new litter box when I didn’t get the chance to.”


“I went on a work trip to DC for a week and Brandon made having to leave Drax at home so much easier and took a lot of stress out of it. He provided daily updates and did even more than I even expected him to do. I am sure Drax is going to miss the week he spent with Brandon checking on him and keeping him company”


About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all personalities and needs. I’ve had cats since I was 7 years old and grew up helping care for my neighbors’ cats, so I’m very comfortable with feline behavior, routines, and building trust with even the more independent or shy kitties. In college, I volunteered at an animal shelter, where I gained experience working with animals from a variety of backgrounds, and I adopted one of my own cats from there. I also grew up with dogs, including a Doberman and an English Bulldog, and today I have two Dobermans of my own. This has given me a strong understanding of both high-energy breeds and those that need a little extra patience and care. I’m also familiar with managing special needs, including caring for cats with megacolon and those who have special dietary restrictions. I’m attentive to health considerations and comfortable following specific care routines when needed. Whether your pet loves playtime, structure, or just a calm, reassuring presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I live in a quiet neighborhood that’s great for walks and like 2 minutes away from a park I also have a 1 year old playful pup (female). She does really well with other dogs (lots of butt sniffing when she first meets them) She will help make your pup super happy and will probably tire them out. She’s a German Shepard husky so she may be a little intrusive. But I give lots of love and cuddles to the pups. And even while I’m away I have two other people who will still give love to the pup ! (If extra potty breaks needed) I also don’t mind driving to the local dog park to provide extra exercise and more friends for the pups.
About: I've taken care of dogs of all sizes and temperments for my whole life. I have a calm demeanor that helps them relax. I live in a house with a large fenced yard, I have a car with dog restraints, a vet office within walking distance, experience giving medications, and I'm a veteran who's good in a crisis. I am currently a student doing most of my work from home. I only accept a bookings if I'll be home and able to provide plenty of love and attention. I have lots of space, a car with dog restraints, a medium dog crate (for crate trained dogs up to 70-ish pounds) and plenty of toys. I also carry my own pet sitting insurance that goes beyond the Rover guarantee, for the mutual protection of sitter, owner and pet. Dogs will not be left outside unsupervised.

“Giezell is wonderful! My dog Bailey ran right in and after awhile felt at home. He had his treat and dinner as scheduled and she also sent pictures and videos which is much appreciated. She’s contentious and excellent care with Bailey. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend!!”

“My dog spent the day at Lupe’s today and left happy. Lupe had great hospitality. She gave me a little tour of where my dog would be spending his time and asked questions about his needs/personality when I dropped him off. The indoor area is very specious and has a gate to separate some dogs from others based on temperament. My dog was showing signs of possessiveness over his toy so she was proactive about giving him his own space away from the other dogs. She said when the dogs weren’t outside playing he chose to spend his time right next to her while she worked. Lupe sent pictures and gave a recap of how he played well outside with other dogs and was fed separately.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of love, patience, and personalized care I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every pup has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies who need extra attention, structure, potty training support, and plenty of playtime, as well as senior dogs who require a calmer environment, medication administration, slower walks, and gentle care. I’m attentive to body language, behavior, and individual needs, which helps dogs quickly build trust and feel comfortable with me. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and anxious, or older and needing extra patience, I provide reliable supervision, lots of affection, consistent communication, and a clean, stress-free environment. My goal is not just to “watch” your pet it’s to give them a positive experience where they feel loved, secure, and excited to come back. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part-time and mainly from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to maintain a flexible schedule for walks, potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and cuddle time, while also making sure each pet sticks to their normal routine as closely as possible. Since I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone for long periods, which helps them feel comfortable, safe, and less anxious while their owners are away. I truly enjoy having animals around and make their care a priority in my everyday life, giving them lots of love, patience, and one on one attention. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. Since I work part-time and mainly from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of supervision, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Dogs staying in my home are welcome to roam freely and relax comfortably in the house rather than being confined, helping them feel more at ease and at home during their stay. I can also crate dogs if requested by the owner or if it’s part of the dog’s normal routine for sleeping, feeding, or downtime. I always prioritize safety by carefully monitoring interactions, maintaining a calm environment, and following each dog’s specific care instructions, routines, dietary needs, and comfort levels. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, stress free, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their dog is in good hands.
“Shanna and Matthew were wonderful for Idris! I was nervous about using Rover and leaving him with someone new most of the day. They reassured me he would be fine and they have a lot of experience with different dogs and puppies. Idris (my 5 month old puppy) had a great time and was well taken care of. When I picked him he was super happy. I love that they are local and have a good set up for dogs. I will definitely book with them again.”


“Connie is a gem! Such a nice human with an equally nice family. Treated Cash like her own. Sent lots of updates throughout the day. Her home is warm and welcoming. Her dogs are well behaved and love people and animals. Truly so thankful for Connie and will definitely be booking her in the future. 10000% recommend.”

“Haruka and Daniel were wonderful, and incredibly kind! My dog Sybil had a little trouble with some anxiety after I left and they did a great job keeping her comfortable despite it and keeping me updated. By the time I got there she was right at home and ready to play! We'd definitely love to book again next time!”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little kid, both dogs and cats! I love animals and spending time with them as much as possible. I have plenty of experience with animals, with training my own dogs, playing with them in our yard, playing with cats, cleaning up after all them daily. Making sure they are living there best life! I currently work part time and have so much extra time for your fur babies! I love animals and love to take care of them like they are my own babies! Let me be the one to put your mind at ease while you can enjoy the vacation your on, the business trip you need to focus on, or just anything your doing. I have a fully fenced backyard, furniture the animals are allowed on, plenty of space in the house for animals to feel at home! Every animal is treated with love at our home!
“We had a great experience with Elliott. We did a meet and greet which I felt was very responsible. His dogs are awesome and got along well with my girls. Pick up was easy and even though I was late he did not mind. I will use him again!”

“My dog, Henry, and I just moved to town. The move has been somewhat a hard adjustment on Henry. I started daycare with Ricquel and she has been a godsend to Henry and I. She takes the time to go at Henry's pace making sure that he has his space to meet the other dogs at daycare and gives Henry attention with his favorite activities (fetch) and even gives him iced water because he gets hot easily! Furthermore, Riquel has been SO flexible with me and my schedule with my new job. She's a great communicator, flexible, patient and truly cares for Henry's wellbeing. Thank you, Riquel!”

“When we met Andrew at his house, he gave us a tour which included his yard. We picked up our 23lb 12 yr old poodle mix a few hours later. Oogie was happy and fell asleep when we returned home. This is the first time we used Rover’s app & dog sitting services. We are happy with the overall experience.”


About: I have been a dog mom longer than a human mom! Dogs have been part of my life for years. I am good with training, schedules, pups to seniors. I walk daily, have a huge yard, and a pool for summer day care. My 2 kids have grown up with dogs in the home and love and them just as much as I do! I work from home and set my own hours, so your pup will get plenty of love and attention! I take a walks everyday and am a frequent flyer at the park. Day care hours: Drop off between 7-8am and pick up between 4-5pm. Additional time will have an added fee. If you need different drop off/pick up times, please let me know when booking! I have a huge fenced yard for getting zoomies out and soaking up sun. Besides daily walks to the park and play, I will make sure your dog is fed, stimulated, and loved.
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life. Cared for many animals from birth to doggy heaven. I love animals so much I should have to pay to pet sit for people. My dog is very high maintenance, so he gets all the brushing and teeth care one could ask for everyday. I cut his hair myself and train him. I have a nice sized back yard that's fenced in and small from yard as well. Plenty of space to play around and all the amenities one would need.
“Sabrina watched our baby for daycare for 3 days. Our pup quickly seemed to warm up to her. She kept us updated during the day and graciously brought her to us at the end of the day. Sabrina seemed super friendly and she treated our pup with a lot of care, even in the face of our dog’s first heat cycle. We appreciate her and the care she provided.”

“Miko had a great time at Shireen’s! We did a meet and greet a few days before to help him warm up a bit, and that was helpful for my nervous pup. If we ever need a sitter again, we will definitely be booking with Shireen!”

“I had a great experience with Jackson walking my dog, Maggy. He was reliable, communicative, and sensitive to her needs—especially as a senior dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands during the day. I look forward to booking him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”


About: I have been dog-sitting since I was a child. Anytime my neighbors went out of town, they would ask me to take care of their dogs such as feeding them, playing with them, and taking them outside. One of them was a K-9. Since then I have volunteered at my local animal shelter, and I currently work with children who developmental disabilities such as autism. I’m currently working: Monday 3PM-6PM Tuesday 9AM-1PM, 3PM-6PM Thursday 9AM-1PM, 3PM-6PM Friday 2PM-5PM Saturday 9AM-12PM Any time not listed above is my availability. I have plenty of experience with dogs. I currently don’t have any of my own due to my household not allowing pets, but I grew up dog-sitting for my neighbors and have since volunteered at my local animal shelter.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I don’t think there was a year in my life where I did not have a dog to help take care of! I have taken care of small dogs, medium dogs, and big dogs! We also had a lot of other animals while I was growing up. I’ve taken care of birds, fish, reptiles, and even rabbits. So I am happy to take care of other pets as well if you have them and we can talk prices! Depending on the needs of your pets, I will form my schedule around taking care of them! As of right now this is my main job but as soon as I find another job this will become something I do on the side for a passion hobby. I will always start by asking the owner of the pets to explain their needs and wants before implying anything that I would do on my own. (Customer needs and wants come first) I have fun playing with the animals dogs and cats alike. So if they have favorite toys if I am house sitting then I will let them have fun with that! If I am walking dogs I tend to keep a steady pace so that the dogs get good healthy exercise.
About: Hi there! I’m Kiet! A passionate and attentive pet caregiver with experience caring for dogs, cats, and even reptiles. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they’re happy, healthy, and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m especially skilled with pets who need a little extra care. Both of my cats require a special medical diet, so I’m very comfortable preparing and following precise feeding instructions. I also have experience with anxious animals, my cat Robin is quite shy and sensitive, so I understand the importance of creating a calm and reassuring environment. Whether it’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication, or simply providing companionship, I take the responsibility of pet care seriously. I’ve recently moved back home and currently have open availability! I’m more than happy to take care of your companion for extended period. Thank you! At the moment I am not taking any care from my own home as I share a house with roommates. Thank you for your understanding!
“Courtney came over to visit our dog a week prior to walking. She’s super friendly, reliable, communicative, and awesome, and we are so excited to have her back to walk him!”

“Shawna is such an amazing dog walker! I am very particular on who is around/handles my dog and she has always gone above and beyond to make sure my dog is safe and happy! It’s such a huge piece of mind knowing that he’s is getting exercise while I’m at work. She always leaves the best reports for me to read after their walks 😊 Thank you Shawna for loving my dog as much as I do!”

Every animal that I care for I treat as if they were my own. I’m in school Monday through Friday 9am to 1pm and I am available before or after school and available whenever you need during the weekends. I make sure that my clients homes are secured by going outside with them and making sure fences are closed keeping a close eye on them at all time and including inside as well. I have experience with dogs that are deemed vicious and so I’ve had to take special precautions for the safety of the animals.

About: I've lived with dogs my whole life. Cared for many animals from birth to doggy heaven. I love animals so much I should have to pay to pet sit for people. My dog is very high maintenance, so he gets all the brushing and teeth care one could ask for everyday. I cut his hair myself and train him. I have a nice sized back yard that's fenced in and small from yard as well. Plenty of space to play around and all the amenities one would need.

“Lupe and her family were wonderful to my dog Bruno. They took such great care of him and he’s not in. He’s not an easy dog. I recommend them highly. They were kind and considerate and I appreciate everything they did for my dog.”

“Randi was Awesome! I got plenty of pictures and updates on our girl Sami. She and her family treated Sami as their own, which was reflected in the cuddling pictures. I would and will try to schedule Randi for our future care needs.”

“Anthony is top-notch! He took great care of our King Charles Cavalier for four days. Anthony sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog playing with his dog, Kai. He took our dog on many walks to the local park and played fetch with the dogs his backyard. Anthony was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and had everything ready to go when it was time to take our dog home. I highly recommend Anthony for dog boarding and we will be rebooking with him in a few weeks.”


About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. From cats, to smaller dogs, to large golden doodles, I’ve had the pleasure of watching a variety of animals. I’ve watched animals overnight while administering medicine, so I have experience with both boarding and taking care of the animal’s health. That includes senior animals that need extra love in diapers or extra medicine. I also am pursuing an animals degree, so I understand the basic functions of animals. I work part time 3 days a week, but go home every two hours so I would be able to regularly check on your animal. The rest of my week is free and I would dedicate plenty of time to your pet. I have a fenced backyard with a doggie door that can be opened or closed. This allows animals to either have unlimited access to the outside or controlled access depending on the animal and owner’s preference. I have no resident animals in the house so your pet will receive all my attention! Two other adults in the house to give extra love!
“So grateful for Jason to take our bloodhound on last minutes notice. Our dog was well cared for and enjoyed being with Jason. It was very comforting seeing the pics Jason would send of our dog.”

“Kimberlin was great with our 2 dogs! They stayed with her and her husband for a week getting lots of attention and love. She communicated well, responded promptly to the initial request and all subsequent messages. She’s kind and clearly has a love of dogs that shows through her interactions. She is very understanding and accommodating. Our dogs were perfectly happy when we picked them up after a long week and I’m sure wouldn’t have protested to staying longer. Will definitely be using her again whenever we need help with our pups!”

“Biswas was amazing and took great care of my goldendoodle! I boarded Snoopy for 3 weeks during my holiday vacation in Asia and Biswas kept me up-to-date with pictures and videos of how Snoopy was doing. This was also my first time boarding with someone from Rover, and I'm very glad I found Biswas as he made this a great experience and treated my dog with respect and care. Just from connecting with him on our first video call, I can tell that he loves dogs and is a very nice person. When I came over to pick Snoopy up on the last day, it seems that Snoopy wanted to stay longer lol. I cannot recommend him enough and will definitely be booking with him for any future boarding!”

“Adrienne is the HEAVEN sent DOG WHISPERER! She watched my Corgi Teddy for a last minute “Girl’s Weekend”. She was quick to reply to my request and very accommodating. She updated me frequently with pictures and videos of my Teddy living his “Best Dog Vacay”..;) She deserves more than 5 STARS!! Highly recommend and she is our sitter for ALL future needs/vacations in the future. Thank You Adrienne #Happy/GratefulDogMoM?”

“Our wild puppy loves staying at Acharas! She gets to play with other dogs and always comes home tired. We are so grateful to have a reliable and caring home to send our puppy to whenever we are out of town. Achara sends me cute picture updates of our dog having fun. Thank you!!”


“Peter and Sarah made everything easy with a flexible drop off/pick up and great care for my pup. They were quick to respond when I had a question and gave me updates as appropriate. We are repeat boarders here and will be back again!”
“Returning client here and just as the first time they took really good care of my dog Loki! They keep great communication and provided status and photos of him throughout the day, each day! It's great to have someone you can trust to leave your pet when you cannot take him with you.”


“Our dogs always are well cared for and loved. Carrie has always accommodated any last minute change in plans, for which we are grateful! She keeps us informed and sends pictures. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter! ”

“Reginay watched my dog CeeCee I am definitely coming back again. Reginay kept in communication with me the whole time. She agreed to a meet and greet before she watched her. She is very sweet and professional the first time we met. I picked her before but didnt need her that time . She was very sweet and understanding thats why when i needed a sitter she wss the first person i contacted. Ceecee has very bad speration anxiety and this was my first time leaving her with someone she didnt know. I called and texted a million times she never missed not one call or text and made me feel at easy everytime. My dog also have pancreatitis She have a special diet she followed all food instructions i gave her .. Ceecee was smiling the whole time she was with her and she dont do that with anyone. Anything i asked her to do with CeeCee she always said "Sure, no problem" she is very good with communication and easy to talk to . She also have a dog Nova is so sweet and was also glad she was there to keep her company then another dog came over and it was a slumber party. She even took all three walking at once multiple times and took multiple pictures and videos with CeeCee smiling the whole time and let her sleep in her room with her which was amazing and when CeeCee needed her space from the other dogs she made sure she had it. Over all she was the perfect sitter .She made feel very comfortable with her watching CeeCee I am using her everytime I need a sitter. I would give her 100 stars if I could. She was the best! I couldnt ask for a better sitter. Thank you Reginay 😊.”
