“Irina was an amazing Dogsitter for Getty! She sent lots of cute photos and updates and kept our boy so happy. She was accessible and great at communicating. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Albina took great care of my boy. She made sure he went on multiple walks a day and sent me updates. He came home very happy. Will definitely take Kobe to her again😊”
“Dan is a Dog Whisperer. He always makes my little hero Pirate one of the pack in his pooch-friendly home. We’ve left Pirate with him before, but this was for 17 days. Pirate had such a good time with Dan and his dogs that when we reunited today, Pirate gave me kind of a side eye that said, “Hey, I like hanging out here. No rush to come home.” Seriously though, Dan has a very warm, calming presence and we’ll call on him again! Thank you!”
“We really appreciated Lisa (and her family’s) care for our dog Kunga! She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and sent updates. Kunga loved her time there. Would totally leave Kunga with Lisa again.”
“Amanda was very professional , very caring and really took care of my dog Raider as if he was her own . She sent tons of pictures and messaged me by the day . I really enjoyed how she cared for my dog . He was sad to leave her hahaha but I’m forever grateful for her and will definitely be booking with her in the future! Thank you again Amanda!”
“We live several hours away and needed someone to watch our pup while we went on a cruise. I searched for someone and found Yulia! She had experience with dogs, she has no dogs, she takes one client at a time plus dogs are allowed on the bed. PERFECT 👌 Yulia knew how hard it was for me to leave Taco. His first time. She sent photos right away! She let me know how he was feeling and how he did throughout the day and night. We had awesome communication during his stay plus photos and videos. They truly helped me. He went on long walks and received a lot of loving from both Julia and her husband. Mr. Taco also learned a new trick!! She taught him to lay down! I'm truly thankful and grateful to have found Yulia. I hope she's available when I need her next! I may change my schedule to fit hers! Warm hugs. ❤️”
“Cathy was a great communicator, very very easy to deal with, and sent tons of pictures. Our Lulu (boxer) was obviously very happy in each picture too, she looked playful and frisky and just how you want to see your pet. Thanks Cathy!”
“Magdalena is such a wonderful and nice sitter my dog Oreo loves her and her family…she treats Oreo like her own and I’m so grateful for her….I would recommend anyone to book her services!!! 👍🏽 she’s the best sitter 👌🏽”
“There are not enough characters to put into words about what an amazing boarding experience I had with Yvonne. She offered a worry free care filled boarding experience for my dog. From the initial meet and greet and her interaction with Isabella, I knew I was dealing with a professional who loves dogs and provides attention to detail in every aspect of care. Her daily photos and updates bridged the distance while I was away. I am a bit reluctant to share this, as I want her all to myself but she is truly a gem”
“Josie is amazing! My pup had a great time with her while I was away on vacation. I think he had a better time than I did! Josie is very responsive and sends daily updates with the best photos. I will definitely rebook with Josie again.”
“Teresa took great care of our dog, Andre, over the weekend. She was communicative, kind, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Andre came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely trust Teresa to watch him again and highly recommend her!”
“Tamar watched our French bulldog, Kuma, for a week and did a phenomenal job! She made sure he was comfortable in her home and sent us tons of adorable photos every day, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear she truly enjoyed spending time with Kuma and treated him like her own. She even made sure all of his belongings were cleaned, washed, and returned in perfect condition. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will definitely book with her again in the future! 🐶✨💕”
“Bertha was wonderful! I am hesitant to leave my dog with new people but Eugene settled in so easily with Bertha P. She was incredibly thoughtful about pictures and updates, and that made my time away so much more relaxing!”
“This was my first experience using Rover and I couldn't have been happier with the service I got from Jessica. She is absolutely amazing. She is warm and friendly and regularly sent me updates and pictures of my fur baby. I will definitely use Jessica again.”
“Hector and Brandon are amazing!! They we easy to communicate with, sent lots of pics and are so friendly. Will be more than happy to send our pup back to them ANYTIME. We feel so lucky to have found such a great option.”
“Alla was very nice with my dog, especially his first time. Was gone for a few days, but I felt very comfortable leaving Henry behind as she provided pictures and kept me up to date, I felt very relaxed”

“Alicia did incredibly with our cat! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, she even made space in her schedule for a last minute visit when our auto-feeder failed. 5/5!!”
“Alicia was so great and communicative. She sent so many cute pics and videos. She took the best care of my cat Starfish for almost 2 weeks. I felt very safe leaving my cat in her care. She took the time to give her sweet cuddles in addition to feeding her daily. She even was able to check there were no leaks during the rainstorm, which was so nice of her. Highly recommend! Would definitely use her again.”
“Per usual, Bella went above and beyond looking after my cat. I never once worried about him while I was on vacation. I received regular photos and detailed updates. Thank you Bella for such wonderful care!!”
“Irina and her family are just the best. Our cat Max loves going to visit her. We wouldn’t want anyone else to take care of him while we’re away. As always, Irina is very kind, professional, and communicative! She definitely takes the stress out of being away from our “baby”. Five stars all the way! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Sara is wonderful! We have a pair of unique foster cats that Sara looked after while we were away. Even from the initial meeting, they took to her! She was so thoughtful and communicative in her care. She really went above and beyond. She shared wonderful photos of them both. We came home to healthy & happy cats. We greatly appreciate her and hope to work with her again in the future.”
“Ali was outstanding! She took care of my 2 senior cats and my Siamese fell in love with her. The house was super tidy when I returned and it didn’t smell like cats. I would definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have over 5 years experience walking and sitting for dogs and cats. I used to have my own business of 5 dogs I walked together every day in the city of San Francisco. All these pups I also dog sat-both in my own home and at the home of the owners. I truly love dogs and am looking to earn some extra money to supplement my income. I am also a pre-school Pod teacher who in incredibly loving, caring, detail oriented, and reliable. I am happy to give daiy updates and pictures, administer medicine, and care for dogs with different needs. I love the outdoors and hiking, am happy to take your dog on long walks. Please consider me to bring some love into your dogs life! References available upon request. I am available for early morning, early afternoon into evening walks. I am currently a teacher on summer hours looking for more work, going to create some long lasting relationships. I prefer to keep dogs uncrated unless this is your preference. I have a large porch and a side yard of dogs need to be kept separate. I have a very friendly dog and walk him at 3 times a day.
About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting for ten years because I love animals! I’m very active, love to hike with dogs, and also am creating music when at home which they tend to love if they’re with me :) I am a part time sitter and am available on some holidays which has been helpful for clients in recent years. Pet sitting fits in to an ever changing and flexible schedule. I am currently at a pet friendly and peaceful residence on a quiet street. I also pet sit for neighbors in my immediate neighborhood within a 3 mile radius.
“Fiona was great with our 13 year old cat who’s very cautious with strangers. She has calm and affectionate demeanor which any animal/human would love to be around.”
“Amazing care from Traci during a weeklong trip with two energetic cats! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and played with them during their 1 hour visits. Lots of photos and videos of the cats having a great time, and she enjoyed getting to know them too. Very communicative with questions and updates. We are so lucky to have found her on our first time using Rover! Thank you Traci!!!”
About: I was never able to have cats of my own growing up because my mom was allergic but I did watch neighbors cats a couple of times a year, the had a very playful one, jack, and one that would hide, Lucy, and I enjoyed playing with jack while also looking under every bed to just make sure that Lucy was still there
“Rachael was the BEST cat sitter I basically could have imagined. Our cat, Lucy, is extremely shy and we've had other cat sitters that she never came out of hiding for, but from Day 1, she and Rachael were besties! To say I was pleased is an understatement. Her daily updates, photos and occasional videos were also a total delight. As far as I'm concerned, Rachael is the best of the best!”
About: I have over four years of experience providing dedicated care for cats during long-term house-sitting assignments. Throughout high school, I managed a consistent schedule of twice daily visits for 2–3 weeks at a time, ensuring my cat felt comfortable and cared for while their owners were away. During these visits, I handled all essential daily tasks, including feeding, refreshing water, and meticulously maintaining litter boxes. Beyond the basics, I prioritize quality playtime and companionship to keep cats mentally stimulated and happy. Whether your cat is high energy or prefers quiet company, I am committed to following their specific routine and providing the reliable care they deserve!

“Isabel took a great care of my dog while we were at the Rose Bowl game. She’s great with communication and was very quick in responding for drop off and pick up. Will definitely use her again next time we visit SoCal.”
“Thank you so much Albina!! It was very last minute and bullet had a good time. You were very communicative and the drop off and pick up was very quick. If I was in your area, she would be regular there.”
“Jonalyn was fantastic with my dog! She sent so many photos and kept Mocha busy and got her tired, which is hard to do. Mocha is usually nervously reluctant to separate from me, but every time we went to Jonalyn's, she got so excited. Definitely booking again!”
About: Hi! Welcome! I have been a cat mom for 16 yrs, but sadly my beloved cat, Mittens passed away in May 2025. I miss him dearly! And I deeply miss having a fur baby in my life! But since I’m not ready to get a new pet, I would like to give my love, attention and experience into taking care of other people’s pets! I am extremely experienced with taking care of cats and I have taken care of family and friend’s dogs before, and now several times professionally on Rover, that it’s made me fall in love with dogs just as as cats! I absolutely love and enjoy taking care of both dogs and cats! And they both have their own wonderful and amazing charms! 😁 I work from home so I am always at home, so it makes it easy to take care of pets and give them all the attention and potty breaks that they need. I am available for boarding or pet daycare at anytime, so please feel free to contact me whenever you would like. I live in a one bedroom apartment that is 1000-1500 sqft and I don’t have a backyard or personal balcony, but live in a very safe residential neighborhood, so walking dogs outside at anytime of the day is completely safe and fine. My living room is a reasonable size (1000 sqft), which is why I only board small to medium sized dogs; however, I work from home, so I’m always able to take the dogs out to get some much needed air, sun and exercise daily, so they don’t get too cooped up or bored indoors. I also always make it a priority to turn the AC and fans on at my place, so they can stay cool and comfortable at all times. Furthermore, I have used the Rover App before to have my own late cat boarded with a pet sitter on here, so I fully understand the comfort and the need for owners to have pet sitters send photos, videos and daily updates of their pets to them, therefore, I always make that a priority and I am more than happy to do that! I firmly believe and take it very seriously that a pet sitter should always respond immediately and be absolutely communicative at all times!

“Wow, I can’t say enough great things about Jessica, Zach, and Fang!! My dog was immediately comfortable with them all (even though she can be nervous around men, she loved Zach). She had great play time, walks, and comfy naps. I got cute picture updates throughout the day, and she came back calm and sleepy. Can’t wait to book them again!”
“Irina met me right on time for dropoff and pickup, was extremely friendly, and kept me updated with plenty of photos throughout the day. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in excellent hands with her. I would totally leave my dogs with her again!”
“Eames is exhausted after a very fun day with Teresa and her family. Thank you for all of the updates and for taking such good care of him. We hope to see you guys soon!”
“Erika took good care of Summer and was very understanding. She is knowledgeable on taking care if dogs. She updates me of Summers activities. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Ripple had a blast today with Briana and her adorable dog! She was able to watch ripple last minute when I was in a rush to find a sitter. She sent adorable pictures of ripple throughout the day and was really easy to communicate with! Ripple will definitely be coming back. 10/10 would recommend:)”
About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.
“Chris and Edward took really great care of my boy. Provided updates and lots of love. Will definitely be having them watch Drogo again. Highly recommend!”
About: About Me Hi there! I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with dogs for over 30 years. For the past 16 years, I’ve raised my own pups and for more than 13 years, I’ve fostered and volunteered at various animal shelters in Los Angeles and New York. Caring for dogs truly brings me joy — from playful puppies to gentle seniors (who hold a special place in my heart!). Your fur baby will be pampered, loved, and treated like part of the family. Whether they prefer a cozy nap or a game of fetch, they’ll have plenty of space to play or just relax in my home. I even have my own little hillside nature trail. 🥾🐾 I make sure every dog enjoys nice long walks, fun playtime, and of course, plenty of treats and affection. Does your pup love trails? So do I! Does your pup love going to the beach? So do I! Does your pup love to Netflix and chill? So do I! I also love to bake and prep special treats (all natural and seasoning free) - 100% customer satisfaction 🐶💗. My schedule is very flexible. Taking care of your pups is my priority. I can adapt to whatever your pup’s needs are - no problem! Your pup deserves it all! Lots of exposure to nature! Lots of spots to sunbathe! Lots of trails nearby (if they’re up for a hike). Or if they’re more of a lounger, they can have their pick of dog beds or couches. And of course… lots of love, treats and comfort! My home is completely fenced and gated with a large play area and turfed yard. My dogs are super dog friendly but if your pup needs his/her own space I can provide a separate area for them.
“Jennifer is great with our dog, Kodak. He often gets nervous when getting dropped off for daycare, but after a couple of times with Jennifer, he can't get in the door fast enough! 100% recommend her!”
“Bianca is very nice and reliable. My dog had a great time with her. We arrived a bit later than expected, but she took my dog out for a walk and even waited for me downstairs. I would definitely ask for her help again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs about 4years. I like to watch them to play, and talk to them as communicating. To walk, feed and play with them, let me feel so warm and make my day. I have a big heart to take care of them. I stay home a lot and take care of my dog. I know each pet owners have different time, if our time could match, I would like to help and take care of your pets. I do have a big unfenced yard in front of my apartment. They can run and play inside the area. I also have a corgi girl, I believe she can be their friend. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining a structured schedule. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to provide walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I care for pets by making sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy. In my home, I provide fresh water, feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I stay home often, so pets are well supervised. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions carefully and keep their regular routine. I treat every pet with love, patience, and care, just like they are my own.
About: Trust your beloved pets to a mature, responsible adult. I enjoy a loyal following of repeat clientele because my clients understand that I can be trusted both with their beloved pets and with their homes. I am a successful business owner and I work out of my home, in close proximity to downtown Glendale, CA. Please Note: We can only accept one dog per visit. Each visiting dog may arrive with a bed, blanket, toys or anything else you think necessary for them to enjoy a sense of stability and security. Each day, we'll send updates, pictures and videos to assure you that all is well with your pet. Being away from a home can be a stressful situation for any pet, and we do our best to keep your pet calm and comfortable during their stay.

“Isabel is excellent! She’s punctual, is a great communicator, and is very natural with dogs. She observed a lot of things about my dogs temperament that I really appreciated . She has also done dog sitting in my home and is very trustworthy.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life! Since my very first Boxer, Roxy, I’ve been completely in love with the companionship of dogs. In fact, I raised my own dog, Rambo, from a puppy, and he still lives with me today! As a fellow dog owner, I know firsthand how challenging it can sometimes be to juggle everything that comes with having a pet. Let me help ease those worries and be there for you when you need a hand! I absolutely love everything about animals and can’t wait to meet your pup soon! I live super close to the beach and several great dog parks. I’m very attentive to each owner’s preferences for how and where their dog should be walked, and I’ll always check in to make sure your pup gets the care that suits them best. Since I’m a long-distance runner, I’m more than happy (and able!) to give your dog as much exercise as they need! I'm super flexible and easygoing, but I do have to be strict about overnight dog-sitting cancellations to keep things fair for everyone. That said, if we set up a plan to walk your pup, you can count on me, I’d never miss it! 😊 Your pet's happiness means so much to me! I won’t be able to provide house-sitting services, but I do have a park very close to my home where I can take your dog for walks and, with your permission, even enjoy some playtime in the dog park! Rest assured, I’ll be the only one caring for your dog, so you can feel completely at ease!
About: Hi, my name is Sophie! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was eight years old, working with small and large breeds of all ages — from playful puppies to calm seniors. I’ve successfully handled untrained dogs and sick dogs as well. I am capable of following dietary guidelines and physical requirements your pet might require. I’m great at reading their moods and energy, so they always feel safe and comfortable. Animals truly are my safe place and I promise to provide the up most care and attention to your furry friend. I’m currently in LA with a completely open summer schedule, so I can give your pet my full attention whenever you need me. I’m completely available Monday through Saturday with flexible times. I’m not working this summer, so I can easily help with walks and drop-in visits around your schedule. I care for pets in your home so they stay in their familiar environment. For walks and check-ins I’ll come to you, keep your place exactly how I found it, and send updates and photos every visit so you always know your dog is safe and happy.
“I use Traci very regularly to walk my dog Layla and she’s great. Layla is always happy when I get home. Sometimes I’ve even reached out at the last minute and if Traci could be there she would. Reliable! Friendly and awesome.”
“Megan walks our 6 year old little terrier mix, Poppy. Megan is very patient with our nervous pup. She takes her time and makes sure Poppy is feeling safe. We really appreciate the extra effort Megan made getting to know Poppy before her first walk. She walks Poppy twice a week and we are so happy to have her help. We know our pup is in good hands!”

About: I’ve been fortunate to grow up with animals most of my life and lucky enough to continue having little fur companions in the home through roommates. I’m proud to say I’m my friend’s go to for pet sitting (+ house sitting) while they’re away in long trips as I love to play, cuddle, and take care of their little ones as if they were my own. I enjoy taking my family’s dogs for long walks whenever I visit and cuddling with the cat if she’s gracious enough to give me attention. I’d love to meet your pet and thanks in advance! 💗 I’m generally free before 2 pm and after 6 pm with open availability on the weekends though my schedule will vary on a weekly basis and can be pretty flexible! It’s not always easy for pets to be with a stranger but with trust, respect, and patience I hope to create a safe atmosphere. I’d love to implement the methods that have already been established by the pet owner to create a familiar environment and easy transition for your pet.

“Javier rules. He’s walked my dog a ton and always does a great job. Good communication and very reliable (especially with my sporadic walking requests). Sends great pics and walk cards too!”
“Sean took the time to come meet us and the dogs before we left town, which we really appreciated. He was easy going and punctual to the committed time. They got a good walk in and were happy on their return. We'll definitely call on Sean again!”
“Ryan is wonderful! Before and during his visits, he was great about communication. He offered to have a meet-n-greet, before we booked, and he truly understands the needs of senior pets. We will definitely be working with Ryan for both of our pets, as long as he's in the biz!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, patient approach and my focus on building trust with both pets and owners. I take time to understand each dog’s personality and needs so I can tailor walks and care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented—I follow instructions closely, send consistent updates, and treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and owners feel completely confident in my care I am currently working a full time job Monday-Friday but I am available evenings during the week and all day on the weekends. Thank you. For dog walking, I focus on safety, consistency, and trust. Before each walk, I make sure the dog’s harness and leash are secure, follow the owner’s preferred routine, and stick to safe walking routes. I pay close attention to the dog’s comfort and body language so they feel calm and confident with me. To build trust with clients, I’m always punctual, respectful of their home, and follow instructions exactly. I send clear updates and photos after each walk so owners know their dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Michael was very easy to work with, seemed very personable, and most importantly- libby appears to have enjoyed his company 😊 Michael was very professional - communicating with me beforehand to see if libby had any special needs or preferences. He arrived a couple of minutes early and they went on an hour walk. I would definitely use Michael’s services again.”

About: Hi ! My name is Alicia. I grew up with dogs my entire life and I’ve had my cat for over 12 years, so caring for animals has always been natural to me. Animals have always been a big part of my day-to-day life. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand their needs, their personalities, and how to adapt to each one, whether they’re shy, energetic, senior, or a bit anxious. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and other pets of all sizes and ages. I’m gentle, patient, active, caring, and very attentive. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, and ability to adapt to each animal’s unique needs. I’m very confident with anxious pets, routine-based pets, and animals who need extra time to warm up. I can follow feeding schedules, basic training routines, and provide medication if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with lots of love, structure, and reassurance. I’m available every day and very flexible with timing. Your pet will always receive my full attention : walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, and regular photo/video updates. My goal : give you complete peace of mind while you’re away ❤️ Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I’m available 7 days a week, mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can accommodate last-minute bookings, longer visits, and owners with irregular work hours. Walks and drop-in visits are part of my everyday life, spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy. I live in an apartment in Glendale (no backyard), so all services I provide are done at the owner’s home or outside during walks. I always prioritize safety : I’m attentive during walks, avoid unsafe areas, monitor weather conditions (especially heat), and stay alert around traffic and other dogs. Inside the home, I keep the environment calm and follow the pet’s established routine. I lock doors securely, check gates, make sure food and treats are stored properly, and follow any instructions you provide. I communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you always know how your pet is doing.

“We really appreciated Lisa (and her family’s) care for our dog Kunga! She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and sent updates. Kunga loved her time there. Would totally leave Kunga with Lisa again.”
“Cathy was a great communicator, very very easy to deal with, and sent tons of pictures. Our Lulu (boxer) was obviously very happy in each picture too, she looked playful and frisky and just how you want to see your pet. Thanks Cathy!”
“There are not enough characters to put into words about what an amazing boarding experience I had with Yvonne. She offered a worry free care filled boarding experience for my dog. From the initial meet and greet and her interaction with Isabella, I knew I was dealing with a professional who loves dogs and provides attention to detail in every aspect of care. Her daily photos and updates bridged the distance while I was away. I am a bit reluctant to share this, as I want her all to myself but she is truly a gem”
“Josie is amazing! My pup had a great time with her while I was away on vacation. I think he had a better time than I did! Josie is very responsive and sends daily updates with the best photos. I will definitely rebook with Josie again.”
“Teresa took great care of our dog, Andre, over the weekend. She was communicative, kind, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Andre came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely trust Teresa to watch him again and highly recommend her!”
“This was my first experience using Rover and I couldn't have been happier with the service I got from Jessica. She is absolutely amazing. She is warm and friendly and regularly sent me updates and pictures of my fur baby. I will definitely use Jessica again.”
“Alexa was so great with Draco! She watched him for a couple nights and kept us updated with the cutest photos from their walks. She's super friendly and quick to respond, which I really appreciated. This was our first time booking a sitter, so we were a little nervous tbh, but Draco came home happy, healthy, and relaxed. :) Already planning our next booking with her as I’m typing this!”
“Once again Belle LOVED staying with Ekaterina. Her and her husband adore Belle and treat her as well as if she were her own. I appreciate knowing they take so good care of her. You will be so glad to have Ekaterina with your pet family.”
“Best dog sitter ever! I always use Cynthia to watch my Nala whenever I go out of town. She takes excellent care of my baby every time and sends lots of pictures. Nala is always super excited to see her so I know she’s having a blast while she’s with her. She’s the only person I would trust to watch my baby. Highly recommend.”
“Our chihuahua Bruiser had a great time with Jack, and we are so grateful to have found such a genuinely kind, caring, and gentle sitter! Bruiser is a senior dog who tends to feel shy and insecure around strangers – but it was obvious that he felt immediately comfortable and happy upon arrival at Jack's. He danced around and was very perky. :) Jack understood Bruiser's need for space as he adjusted to his new surroundings (lovely apartment by the way!), and Bruiser loved having a lap to sit on when he settled in. Jack also worked us in last minute, which is much appreciated (thank you again!), and we were excited to receive photo and video updates during our trip. Thank you so much Jack, from all of us!”
“Lily was super professional and really easy to work with. She made sure my dog had what she needed when I went away. Lily was polite and friendly and I’ll definitely be using her in the future. She sent me updates of my dog everyday. Thanks Lily!”
“Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my dog! You’re truly the best pet sitter I’ve ever met. Your kind communication, daily photo updates, and thoughtful reports gave me total peace of mind. You fed him well, took him for walks, and played with him at the park whenever you could. I really appreciate your care and dedication. I’ll definitely be rebooking with you next time!”
“Therese is amazing and will 10000% book with her again to care for my baby!! She’s kind, understanding, and really knowledgeable, especially when it comes to taking care of our pets. My dog took a liking to her immediately upon meeting her, which really assured me in knowing Henry was going to be loved and cared for while I was away. Thank you so much, Therese!!”
“Couldn’t say enough positive things. Perfect sitter for my big boy who is dog aggressive/easily triggered. I had never left him alone before and honestly felt stuck. But the time came and I didn’t have a choice. He has dog sat Rex twice now. I'm grateful to have found a sitter like Greg who gave me peace of mind knowing my big boy was in good hands. Rex was excited to see him which let me know he was being good to my boy. Thanks Greg!”
“Jenna watched my 5 year old German Shepherd, Loki! She was so great and accommodating with our schedule and sent me regular updates. Loki gets a little anxious sometimes when I am away, but I could tell she was having a great time with all the activities that Jenna planned for Loki and Sharkweek to do together! She gave great care and attention to Loki and I would definitely book with her again. Thanks Jenna!:)”
“Where do I start, if I could leave a 10 star review I would, from the moment I left my dog with Steven it was pure joy, he was always in contact with updates with pics and videos, he is truly a animal lover, he is so patient and attentive, he will go above and beyond with your dog, I will definitely book again with Steven, thanks a lot Sol my dog was extremely happy staying with Steven. He is awesome!!!”
