“Sriram is a fantastic sitter! I’ve had mixed luck in the past, but he exceeded all expectations. My dog was treated like family, enjoying tons of walks and play in a safe, spotless home. Sriram’s constant updates and photos gave me total peace of mind. I picked up a happy, relaxed pup who clearly enjoyed his 'vacation’ lol. We will absolutely be booking with Sriram and his awesome family again!”
“Awesome experience with Melody! She sent daily updates with pictures, and was very welcoming and sweet with Mochi. Highly recommended, and will definitely book again! Mochi was sad to leave. He was spoiled there.”
“Judi was great with Chesney. He had lots of walks, which he loves. She also took care of an unexpected health issue without hesitation, which we really appreciated.”
“Caddie took great care of Fluffy and kept us updated with photos and videos. Fluffy really enjoys staying at Caddie’s home too. It helps us enjoy our trip without worrying about Fluffy.”
“Dini & her family were wonderful to our two pups. She went above and beyond and sent us photos multiple times a day especially of them eating and out on walks. She was very transparent with us on all the going ons with our pups and when our dog suffered a small cut she even offered to take him to the vet and applied antibiotic cream regularly. It was just a small scratch but we appreciated her communication. We are also dog sitters on Rover and how Dini handled the situation was a great learning example of what great dog sitters are.”
“Nina and Tony took excellent care of our 5 year old golden doodle, Yogi. They are so communicative, sent frequent updates. Yogi looked very well cared for and happy when we picked him up. Would highly recommend Nina and Tony!!”
“I am lucky to have Lily taking care of my dog, Apollo for 24 days during my vacation. Lily gave me daily picture update of Apollo. My family was happy to see him even though we were thousand miles away. Lily also played balls with Apollo and playing ball is Apollo's favorite toy. I highly recommend Lily taking care of your dog.”
“Siqin will always be our go-to sitter. Literally a blessing — I would recommend anyone and everyone to book with her!! Our kitty really loves being with her and her husband. It’s like her second home at this point. Love love love!”
“Thank you for a stress-free stay again! Nancy sends us photos and lets us know how our pup settles in the first few days and then periodically throughout the stay (this last stay was 2 weeks). Updates and excellent communication! Our pup loves going to their house and runs up the stairs and comes home happy and tired.”
“Jianli & Wiena took very good care of our dog. They were very caring and took care of all her needs and send us lots of photos and videos with regular updates. We highly recommend him & will definitely use them again.”
“Absolutely 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ all the way! Every activity that my big boy Lab loves, Mayuri and her husband provided, although they themselves have a much smaller cute pet dog. Labs LOVE attention and activity - and Zippy got that in abundance - the morning and evening updates by pics and videos, made our hearts so warm,. knowing that my boy is safe and good hands.”
“We left our 6 months old golden retriever with Elise for two weeks, we were happy with Elise’s care for our baby dog! Elise kept us updated on daily basis with many pictures and videos. It was very nice to see our dog made some good friends. I appreciate Elise’s prompt responses when I had questions or just checked in. Elise really put us at ease when we were on our vacation. She trimmed our dog’s nails during the stay without me asking. Our baby came home happy! We absolutely will use Elise’s care again and recommend her to our friends!”
“Lihuan took amazing care of my pup! She sent me regular updates and my dog came home happy and tired. Thank you so much for your care, we really appreciate it and would love to book with you again!”
“We had our 2 cats (Aurora and Orion) stay with Zhiya over the 4th of July weekend. We couldn't be more happy with the care and service she provided them. We knew just by meeting her that she was the right person for the job. And her "cat room" in her home was plenty big enough, clean, and filled with pet toys to keep them entertained. During our trip, she would send updates and pictures of how they were doing giving us great comfort. We highly recommend Zhiya's services to care for your pets during your trip too. Your pets will thank you for it. 🐱 Sincerely, Fred Roy”
“I am delighted with my buddy's boarding at Su B.'s. He was in excellent spirit when I went to pick him back. I will use Su B.'s place for my pal in the future if available, and I highly recommend it.”
“Alma is incredibly kind and attentive to our dogs. She understands their needs and enjoys their different personalities. We also appreciate all her timely communication and photo updates. It gave us a lot of peace to know our dogs are having fun and being cared for while we traveled.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Shruti and would absolutely book with her again. Communication was excellent throughout Julie’s stay. Julie had a bout of diarrhea while she was there, and Shruti kept me updated every step of the way, which greatly reduced my stress and gave me confidence that Julie was being well cared for.”
“Shital was a fantastic sitter! My dog loved being with her and Shital showed him care and love and made sure he felt welcome! We met beforehand to meet Shital, and it was clear she is an experienced carer. Shital provided plenty of pictures and updates while my dog was in her care. He enjoyed his time there and I will be booking with Shital in the future!”

“Veronica is so wonderful. She took care of our two cats. I was so impressed by her attention to details. After each drop in, she gave detailed notes on what was done (changing water, refilling feeder, cleaning litter boxes, etc.) I was worry-free while away from my house. She very responsive on messages and very kind. Highly recommended.”
“We are so grateful we chose Brianna as a pet sitter for our 3 cats! She took great care of them (even our young kitten) and eased our minds with many photos while we were gone. Our cats looked very happy and comfortable around her - even our shy one came out to greet her! We will definitely be booking with her again and we highly recommend her to everyone!”
“I was so happy to have Jane to look after my pair of bonded cats. She was extremely dependable and communicative, and I was better able to enjoy my trip knowing she was on the job. Everything went so smoothly and I'm very grateful.”
“Aixia is wonderful with our two cats- 9 and 10 years old. One of them is extremely shy and timid— and he was out greeting and playing with her so quickly we could hardly believe it! She took extra care in all the ways and sent such good photos and updates that we had complete peace of mind while away. Thank you so much for loving our babies the same as we do!”

About: Cats are a central part of my life. As a proud parent of a 6-year-old Ragdoll, I am deeply familiar with the attentive care, grooming needs, and sensitive routines that premium, long-haired breeds require. Over the years, I have built extensive experience managing multi-cat households while pet-sitting. My experience spans a wide variety of breeds, including plush British Shorthairs (Golden Chinchillas), affectionate Orange Tabbies, and charismatic rescues. I excel at handling distinct feline temperaments—whether your cat is an outgoing social butterfly or a shy kitty who needs patient, quiet companionship. During drop-ins, I ensure strict separate dietary routines are followed, maintain meticulous litter box hygiene for multi-cat setups, and provide plenty of engaging playtime and photo updates.
About: Although I have more experience with doggies, I fell in love with a cat that I got to house-sit, who lives with a doggie once. I never knew cats could be so cuddly! I'm now both a doggie and kitty lover. :) I will do my best to care for your beloved furry baby with lots of play, pets, and cuddles.
“Shiman took great care of our 19yo kitty Cosmo while we were out of town. We really appreciate the time and care she took with him giving us feedback of his status and letting us know how he was doing during our trip.”
About: I've loved animals of all kinds since I was little! I have had turtles, tortoises, bunnies, a chinchilla, and Pascal, the love-of-my-life golden mutt. I was privileged to spend more than 15 amazing years with him and learned about all stages of dog life, including elderly/special needs care. I've also helped friends and family take care of their pets - mostly dogs - when they were away! I work full-time, but loving on animals is the best way to relieve stress at the end of the day and on weekends! I also have Mondays off to spoil your pet! Let me know how to keep your pet safe and happy! Favorite games, toys, treats, walking spots? Is he shy, social? Loves a butt rub? An active fetch sesh? A cozy cuddle? Look no further!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ardenwood
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: Hi there! I'm Sriram, a true dog enthusiast living in sunny Fremont, California. For the past 8 years, I've been caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies mastering their first tricks to calm senior pups who need gentle, reliable attention. I've raised and trained our own late family dog, teaching him fun tricks (high-five, roll over, spin—you name it!) and perfecting potty training routines that make life easier for everyone. I've also provided dedicated care for several senior dogs, including administering timely medications on strict schedules, monitoring their comfort, and ensuring they get soft, low-impact play and lots of cuddles. Dogs aren't just pets to me—they're family members, and I treat every pup who stays with me the same way I'd want my own cared for. This isn't about the money for me; it's pure passion. I get so much joy from watching a dog's tail wag when I walk through the door, seeing them learn something new, or simply relaxing together after a good adventure. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs long walks, or prefers a quieter day with puzzle toys and belly rubs, I'll tailor their stay to their needs and routine. Working from home full-time allows me to provide your pet with constant attention, including frequent potty breaks, interactive play, and on-schedule feedings. Your dog will also enjoy daily exercise at the beautiful park located right outside my front door. Your pet’s safety is my priority. I offer a fenced-in single-family home with constant backyard access, full camera monitoring, and 24/7 personal supervision.
“We couldn't be more happier with Sage's stay at Dini's place. We received pictures and videos throughout the day and she took really good care of our puppy. Dini has plenty of room for dogs to run around and I noticed that Sage was very cheerful when we picked him up in the evening. Dini fed him as per the schedule (food and treats) and he got to play fetch in the evening. We would love to leave Sage in Dini's care in the future.”
“Thank you Su! Roxie had such a great time and was happy. Su takes lots of pictures and communicates well with dog owners. Definitely using Su for future dog sitting. Her place was perfect for a dog as well.”
“Leo had a fantastic daycare stay with Shital! She loved and cared for him like family, and he came home happy and totally relaxed. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an stress-free pup care experience.”
“Shruti, her husband Gaurav and their dog Toto is an amazing family! I was extremely pleased with how they took care of my dog, Loochie. They gave her quality time, played with her and gave her an extremely comfortable environment to snuggle for hours! Loochie would love to be back with them again!”
About: We are an Asian family living in a spacious single house family in Newark. We have a 11-year-old male Yorkie, Pudding, who is super friendly to human and his doggie friends.

We have a fenced backyard where pets could freely hang out and enjoy playing with each other. Plus, we live in the walking distance of Newark Community Center Park on Cedar Blvd, where there is a decent dog park that we could take your pets to on a daily basis. We work from home for most of the days in a week, so there will always be people at home to take care of your pets. Our daily routine includes walking your dog at least one time a day, and/or visiting the dog park. Dogs can go potty in the sideyard and backyard as often as they need. We have a fenced backyard where pets could freely hang out and enjoy playing with each other. Our own 11-year-old Yorkie is very friendly to all human and doggie friends.
“My dog is super picky with sitter but he fell in love with Jie right away! He and Jie’s doggie also gets along very well. I am very glad to find Jie as she is a wonderful and responsible sitter who follows all the instructions I have provided to her for Mocha. I picked up a calm and happy dog at the end of the day!”
About: Cats are lovely and each have their own character, although they can be distant at first they end up allowing me to obey their commands. I work from home, so your pup will never be alone. They will enjoy daily walks around the lake in our friendly neighborhood. Always feed only what’s on their normal diet. I follow instructions to what is recommended for each pet, as I know many may have different needs. No extra treats or foods since some pets have allergies.
About: All my life I’ve had animals. I have a cat and a dog. Animals are not just pets. They are family, they are emotional support, they are therapy and unconditional love. The only concern you should have is that I will fall in love with your furry baby. As of right now I’m off work. I work in education so I take summers off. I am open to work but would prefer consistency. I have a fenced back yard and a park around my house so enough space for walks. I have a Shiba Inu so expect long walks
“I left my 10 month old pup with Elise on a Saturday so I could go to San Francisco to see a show. Elise was wonderful about being flexible with the time as I wasn't sure when I'd be back. And when I picked up my pup, he clearly had an awesome time. He had such a big smile on his face like he wanted to tell me all about it! And as I started walking with him to the car, he turned and looked at Elise as if he may want to stay with her. :-) This was wonderful for me because he is very attached to me and I wasn't sure how he'd do when I left him in an unfamiliar situation. I'm so happy that I found Elise on Rover. My experience with her was fantastic and I highly recommend her!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and it was such a great experience! I have two senior dogs who need a lot of attention, and she handled them with so much care and patience. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could clearly tell my dogs felt comfortable, safe, and well cared for the entire time. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter.”
“Weiran did a wonderful job watching Mango. We felt completely at ease with Mango under her care. Grateful to have met a sitter that is attentive to Mango’s needs. Thank you Weiran!”
About: I am a dog mom since 2020 when we got our first dog, a golden doodle and since then I have been around him and his friends. Dogs keep me energetic and lively. I talk to them and treat them like babies. My motherly instincts for dogs are no different from taking care of a human being. Since I got my baby, I have researched and have been enhancing my knowledge to take better care of him each day. Whenever I get an opportunity to stay around any dog, it makes me feel very blissful. I have many dogs in my family and friends groups. I keep my house very clean so they do not eat anything from ground. Even for emergencies, I have made an emergency kit which is ready with Charcoal, ear wipes, tweezer and 3% hydrogen peroxide (to induce vomiting) in case they ingest something. I know how to handle normal doggy issues that could occur and even how to handle an emergency situation. If needed I can go to vet immediately. For info, nearest vet to my place is 1 mile ( Golden paws Vet clinic) and nearest emergency (Beacon Veterinary specialist) is 6.5 miles. Your pets safety will be my TOP priority. I am full time at home and will have dedicated time to spend with dogs. I play with them, do stimulating activities as I do with my dog. Your dog will be no different to my own. I have a fenced yard and a long side yard where I play fetch 2-3 times with my dog. I am very creative with playing activities. I am well versed in case of emergency as I keep myself well informed with the knowledge needed to keep pets safe. Important note : Please make sure your dog is up to date with shots and rabies vaccine. Provide a proof you first bring in your dog for day care or boarding.
“Cindy was so communicative and responsive! Kobe loved going to daycare with her and it was a relief to leave him in good hands on such a short notice. He comes back home tired and happy.”
“I left my dog, Brazil, with Justin for a one-day daycare stay, and it was a great experience. Justin was very responsive, reliable, and took excellent care of Brazil. Highly recommend!”
“Our doggo had a great time with Lihuan and would definitely consider Lihuan again. She is very responsive and communicative. Sends photos and videos throughout the day to ease your mind that our doggo is doing fine. AAA+++ service”
“Charlie is a shy senior dog that has some separation anxiety who's been pampered all his life.We were happy for the updates and pictures on his day by Kseniia since we also have separation anxiety 😂. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 6. I love every minutes spent with them. I guess that something written in gene. I am currently studying at home all day long. I do have two small kids but they both go to school at daytime. They both love animals like me do. I have a medium-sized lab and a chihuahua. Both of them are neutered and super friendly to other dogs. They are always expecting new friends to visit them.

“RJ took great care of Remy on his walk. He’s communicative, friendly, and transparent about everything. It’s my first time using Rover and it can be stressful finding someone to trust your fur baby with but I instantly felt comfortable with RJ and most importantly Remy did. He sent photos and videos throughout the walk which I loved.”
About: I was born an animal lover! My first job ever was pet sitting/walking my neighbors' dogs. I have always had a passion for caring for animals! I am open to caring for any type of pet you may have at your home. I have been a special education teacher for 11 years, however am taking some time off this year to pursue some personal passions, which means I have a very flexible schedule! For the past 16 years my life has revolved around my two large fur babies (a sweet, loving lab and loyal, active pit), however they have both now passed on. There has been a huge gap in my heart since they are no longer around, and I am hoping I can start to fill that by caring for your pet! I have pet training experience, and spent the past 4 years caring for my aging dogs. I have experience administering medications, special meal plans/feeding needs, injections and caring for pets with special needs. I love spending time cuddling with furry friends, as well as heading out to the trails, park or beach for a day of active fun!
About: I’m a retired nurse so have no problems giving shots or medications. (liquid is best) I have done so many times for my own dogs.

I will be happy to feed and water your pet, clean up after them as well as walk/play with them!! I want them to trust me. I truly love our fur babies!
About: Dogs make my heart happy, and so do cats! :) I loved the times that I got to spend and care for my beloved Moki who went to heaven in Dec. 2023. I miss her every single day. I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor, which provides me with a flexible schedule to pursue my hobbies and interests. One of my passions in life is dogs. I volunteer with Pets in Need by participating in their Doggy Day Out program. Back in high school, I was voted Most Dependable, and I believe I still hold that title dear to heart whether it's with family, work, friends, and clients. I would do my best to make sure your furry best friend gets lots of pets, play, and potty breaks. :) My schedule is pretty flexible since I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor. I can easily block off dates so that I can be available. In the summer time, I also work as a summer camp art counselor. I have updated my schedule with the dates that I’m available. :) I know what it's like to have someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your furry best friend. I know that you can depend on me because I will love and care for your pet as if she/he's my own.

About: Independently managed the care of pets for family and friends for 11 years, including feeding schedules, walks, and grooming routines. Willing to talk more about the care of your fur baby, if there are any concerns. I care for two birds (a Sun Conure and a Green-Cheek Conure) and two dogs (a Chocolate Lab and a Shih Tzu), which means I start my day early to handle their needs. This includes changing bedding, providing scheduled meals, grooming, and engaging them in regular playtime. Whether caring for pets in my own home or a client’s, I prioritize consistency, safety, and individual attention. In my home, I create a structured, pet-friendly environment, while in clients’ homes, I stick closely to their routines and preferences. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and well-cared for in any setting.
About: I have a heeler shepherd mix. He’s a good boy but not for everyone. Even though he’s a challenging breed, we go on many adventures together. I have the knowledge to work with even challenging dogs. Just let me know when is good. I try to keep my evenings free but if it’s a good fit I’m open to making it work. My pet is well cared for and has a very enriched life. I would follow any preferences set by the owner because I know how important consistency is
About: Hello! I’m Olivia. I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with family dogs starting when I was in kindergarten. In the summer 2023, I adopted my own cat, which made me appreciate even more how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. I work part-time and am a college student, however I can always make time for lovely animals! Even with a busier schedule, I am still able to: * Overnight pet and house sit * Walk your dogs * Daily drop-in visits/check-ins * Keep up with feeding routines and fresh water * Litter box cleaning and basic cleanup * Give lots of attention, playtime, and companionship I am willing to discuss and bargain on prices, and we can discuss my availability further as well! Don’t be shy to message and let me know what you’re looking for. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I try to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to what they need. I also know how important communication is for pet parents, so I’m always happy to send updates and photos while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!
“Lauren was great with walking my dog. They made sure he got water breaks, sent updates and pictures after each walk. They were also available to extend the walk to an hour and for a super last minute booking, so I totally appreciate the flexibility. Thank you Lauren!”
“Alexis has been extremely dependable when we need someone to take Mochi out. She goes the extra mile to meet her needs (whether it's a treat or a little bit of play) We know Mochi is in good hands whenever Alexis stops by!”
About: My specialty and what I excel at is taking care of sick pets. I am able to give cats oral medication and subcutaneous fluid treatments and give oral medication to dogs as well. I started off pet sitting for dogs 7 years ago but have recently started watching more dogs. I am able to take dogs for walks, feed, give oral medication, & play with them. If your dog needs medication from a shot, I am able to learn that as well. I have a certificate of completion from Fear Free Shelters, which teaches techniques to help elevate stress in cats and dogs at shelters. This training has also come in handy with scared house pets. I also volunteer at a cat rescue and have 2 rescue cats of my own. (Half Pint and Nesta). I am available to feed ferals cats at a discounted rate, so your ferals can eat while you're away. I treat everyone’s pets like I want my pets to be treated with kindness, love, & playtime. I look forward to being your Whisker Watcher. I do have a full-time job, but I am able to do drop ins before and after work. On Thursday's and Friday's, I am also able to do drop ins on my lunch hour, as I work from home. I treat everyone’s pet the way I want my pets to be treated, with patience, kindness, love, & playtime. I follow directions well and appreciate as much information as I can get about your pet.

I am full time at home and will have dedicated time to spend with dogs. I play with them, do stimulating activities as I do with my dog. Your dog will be no different to my own. I have a fenced yard and a long side yard where I play fetch 2-3 times with my dog. I am very creative with playing activities. I am well versed in case of emergency as I keep myself well informed with the knowledge needed to keep pets safe. Important note : Please make sure your dog is up to date with shots and rabies vaccine. Provide a proof you first bring in your dog for day care or boarding.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, but only in the last few years have I had major care experience of any kind, but I genuinely really enjoy it. I’ve always loved dogs and pets in general and I’d love to have more opportunities I’m not working any jobs right now and want to make some money doing something I enjoy while saving up for things. So I’m free a fair amount of the time I’m sure the type of care I give certain pets will depend on their personal needs since I’m planning on house sitting, but as far as basics go I’ll make sure to be attentive and keep them happy

“I am lucky to have Lily taking care of my dog, Apollo for 24 days during my vacation. Lily gave me daily picture update of Apollo. My family was happy to see him even though we were thousand miles away. Lily also played balls with Apollo and playing ball is Apollo's favorite toy. I highly recommend Lily taking care of your dog.”
“Siqin will always be our go-to sitter. Literally a blessing — I would recommend anyone and everyone to book with her!! Our kitty really loves being with her and her husband. It’s like her second home at this point. Love love love!”
“We left our 6 months old golden retriever with Elise for two weeks, we were happy with Elise’s care for our baby dog! Elise kept us updated on daily basis with many pictures and videos. It was very nice to see our dog made some good friends. I appreciate Elise’s prompt responses when I had questions or just checked in. Elise really put us at ease when we were on our vacation. She trimmed our dog’s nails during the stay without me asking. Our baby came home happy! We absolutely will use Elise’s care again and recommend her to our friends!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Shruti and would absolutely book with her again. Communication was excellent throughout Julie’s stay. Julie had a bout of diarrhea while she was there, and Shruti kept me updated every step of the way, which greatly reduced my stress and gave me confidence that Julie was being well cared for.”
“She took great care of my two doodles and sent me photos and videos every day. I could tell that the dogs were happy staying with her! She also kept them clean, even after all the walks she had taken them out for. Highly recommend! I'm rebooking her for sure!!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 18. We have a golden doodle at home who loves meeting and playing with other dogs. I work full time remotely, so I am always home to watch your pet. I take my dog to the park for an hour in the evening, and spend random moment throughout the day to engage with all pets in the house! I have a fenced backyard. When your pet stays with me, they'll get plenty of supervised playtime in a safe, pet-friendly environment. We'll stick to their regular feeding schedule, if needed and provide regular walks and potty breaks throughout the day.
“I’m glad I met Cindy. She is very helpful and gives you great tips on helping you become a better pet owner. First time booking Cindy and we had an excellent experience. We will continue to use Cindy for future needs.”
About: Cats are lovely and each have their own character, although they can be distant at first they end up allowing me to obey their commands. I work from home, so your pup will never be alone. They will enjoy daily walks around the lake in our friendly neighborhood. Always feed only what’s on their normal diet. I follow instructions to what is recommended for each pet, as I know many may have different needs. No extra treats or foods since some pets have allergies.
“We had a great experience with Pratima.. She is reliable & attentive. From the start, communication was smooth and reassuring— Pratima kept us updated with messages and photos, which really put our mind at ease while we were away. Both my dogs were happy, well-cared for, and comfortable. It’s clear Pratima took the time to understand our dogs routine and needs. We definitely recommend Pratima to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we’ll be happy to book with them again in the future.”
“Dana was a great sitter and gave me peace of mind during the doggy day care visit! She sent over photo updates regularly. Additionally, she listened intently to my instructions for my two dogs and took great care of them. They came home happy, and tired from a great day at Dana’s. Also a bonus she has a nice grassy yard for my dogs to freely roam in!”
“Emma is a great dog sitter who takes amazing care of all dogs. She is very caring and understanding to all dogs and makes them feel at home. Emma is the perfect dog sitter!”

“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”
“This was first time our dog stayed away from home for a week long, and she seemed to be very comfortable with Darshana. We recieved many videos and pics throughout her stay which kept us updated and at ease. Overall we had a great experience, thanks to Darshana !”
