“It is our first time boarding our dog, so we were a bit nervous, but Soonok was amazing! Our dog likes to walk outside, and Soonok brought him out for walks and even updated us with photos and videos. We appreciate Soonok being communicative and for taking great care of our dog. 5 stars for sure!”
“Sue was great with my senior cat! He's been having to move a lot with our military move so it was wonderful knowing he was in a comfortable and safe environment while we were busy and well loved.”
“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
“Angela provided exceptional care for Mousse during our ten‑day trip. Since this was the first time we’d ever left him — and given his anxiety and barking — we expected it to be difficult. Instead, Angela handled him with confidence and kindness, and he quickly warmed up to her and her beagle, Kona. Her frequent photo and video updates while we were in Japan made a huge difference for us. She ensured Mousse stayed active, comfortable, and well‑supported with walks, playtime, and dog‑park visits. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends and family.”
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining each dog’s regular routine. I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog feels at home. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing with plenty of attention, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, medications, and any special instructions to ensure consistency and peace of mind. You can count on regular photo updates, reliable communication, and dependable care throughout your dog’s stay. My goal is to treat every dog like family and make their time with me fun, safe, and as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m available for weekend boarding and love giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving home away from home. Every dog receives personalized care based on their routine, energy level, and personality. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playing fetch, snuggles, or simply relaxing in a quiet environment, I make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved throughout their stay. Please message me with your scheduling needs and I will do my best to accommodate. Thank you <3 Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to relax and a fully fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor time. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I closely monitor them during play and throughout the day. A crate is available if your dog is crate-trained or if they feel more comfortable having their own quiet space.
“Moose 2nd time here and he loves it. Ximena and her whole family is very passionate with Moose. He loves staying at their home. For Moose, it's like home.away from home ❤️❤️❤️. Definitely will rebook again.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, energy level, and routine, so I take the time to make each walk or visit a positive experience. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs. I schedule my day to ensure each pet gets the time, attention, and exercise they need without feeling rushed. Safety is my top priority. I keep dogs securely leashed during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and pay close attention to their behavior and comfort. After each visit, I provide photo updates and a summary so owners know how their pet is doing.
“Thank you so much to Jess and her family for taking such good care of our Ollie while we were away. Ollie had never been away from us for that long before so we were anxious, but Jess provided daily updates and photos and Ollie looked like he was having a great time, and that he was content and comfortable. These updates greatly put our minds at ease and we did not have to worry or wonder at all about how he was doing. My husband and I were saying all throughout our trip how relieved we were that Ollie was in good hands. It felt like they welcomed Ollie as part of their family during this time, and he looked so well cared for when we picked him up. We can’t recommend Jess enough and we’re so happy that we found someone we trust Ollie with for the future!”
“Thank you so much, so Awesome and felt very comfortable leaving my dog Lotto in your care for 5 days The constant pictures and communication eased my anxiety. ? I would highly recommend and look forward to using you in the near future ?”
“Jenni was dedicated to keeping me updated on how my puppy was doing. She sent me pictures and texted me about his meals, bathroom breaks, and naps. My puppy loved her so much that he didn’t want to leave. He even met some friends, and from the pictures, it looked like he was having a wonderful time. I’m truly grateful to have met Jenni and look forward to seeing her again.”
“Grateful they were able to accommodate us last minute! My dog is a gentle giant and they kept him safe for us for the night, I loved getting picture and videos. Thank you!”
“I can’t say enough amazing things about our first experience with Maritza. From the moment I contacted her, I felt confident about her taking care of our furbaby! We did a meet and greet before Hershey's stay and we could tell that this was the perfect place for him while we had to go out of town. It’s clear that Maritza loves what they do—my dog was treated like family, not just a client. Communication was outstanding the entire time. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes about how my dog was doing, which made being away so much easier. It was obvious that Hershey was happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. What really stood out was the attention to detail and genuine care. Maritza took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, and made sure everything was followed perfectly. When I picked my dog up, Hershey was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for—which says everything. Honestly, I think he was sad to leave! He had so much fun with the other dogs and since it was Easter weekend, Maritza even did a egg hunt with all of them! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Maritza. This was hands-down the BEST pet care experience we've ever had, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“My dog Lucy a large Goldendoodle loved her time spent with Jennifer . There were a couple of dogs for her to play with and she seemed really happy when we went to pick her up. She never stays with anyone so I’m very happy it went so well . Thank you Jennifer”
“Allycia was great taking care of Luna for couple of days. Very nice and easy to talk to. She sent us pictures and information daily. Definitely will book with Allycia again. Thank you Allycia!”
“This is our first time having a sitter for our baby Maggie. I cried so much the night we dropped Maggie off to Marby. I was so scared and my separation anxiety was through the roof. We met Marby and her husband and they ensured Maggie will be fine. Throughout the 5 days our baby stayed with them, Marby kept us updated, sent us photos and videos. Marby made us feel at ease and I can truly say she treated Maggie as her own. Maggie made friends with their baby Mamba. We are truly thankful and grateful for Marby taking such good care of our baby.”
“This was our first time ever using Rover and we couldn’t be happier with Derek. He sent us videos and pictures. Maui clearly enjoyed his time and Derek took great care of him. Definitely 10/10 recommend.”
“cannot recommend them enough!! They took such incredible care of my baby Noori during my wedding weekend, and honestly went above and beyond in every possible way. Not only did they watch her with so much love and patience, they even brought her to my wedding exactly when I needed her and handled everything so calmly and kindly. During such a stressful time, knowing Noori was safe, happy, and loved meant everything to me. They were so professional, thoughtful, and truly kind souls. My family and I are forever grateful. Noori absolutely adored them too 🥹🐾 If you need someone you can fully trust with your fur baby, they are the BEST. Thank you for being part of such a special moment in our lives 🤍✨”

“Jessica was very professional, highly communicative, and super friendly. We appreciated her checking in on our Goosey girl (kitty) and felt like she was in safe hands while we were away. Goose easily took to Jessica’s positive energy. We also loved how she took the time to meet Goose in advance to learn about her needs.”

This was our first time using a pet-sitting service and Hannah made it a seamless experience! I would definitely want Hannah to watch after my pets again, and would highly recommend if anyone is considering a pet-sitter!”
“Lissi was an excellent, caring pet sitter! I could tell Smokey and Archer felt comfortable with her, and she took time to let them get to know her. Our pets were in good hands and we will definitely call her again.”
“Don’t book Jennifer to care for your pet…unless you are prepared to return home to find your four-legged family member looking past you trying to find Jennifer. I say, “It’s me!” “I’m home!” Ben responds, “Yeah, yeah, where’s the other lady? “The one who pets me, feeds me, brushes me, and gives me all of her time and attention?” Seriously, it’s obvious he likes her more. Don’t say you weren’t warned😂”
“We had an amazing experience with Stefanie. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. Stefanie took such loving, attentive care of our cats, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and stress-free while we were away. Coming home to calm, well-cared-for cats gave us so much peace of mind. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely trust her again.”

“Zoë had such a great time with Sabrina. The communication and pictures during the day helped me to know that my puppy was well-cared for. I would definitely use Sabrina for doggie daycare again!”
“It was our first time leaving our Frenchie and Sue made it easy to do so! She sent me updates throughout the day to let us know how he was doing and what he was up to! Would def recommend Sue! 😊”
“Katherine was great with our dogs, took them on adventures and significant doggie park time. Perfect for taking care of our dogs while we went to Knotts for the day. Hands down one of the best sitters we've found on Rover so far, highly recommend!!”
“Lisa is really good with dogs and very considerate with me and my “special needs” dog. She sends photos and videos showing how well my dog is doing through the day and makes me feel good knowing he is enjoying himself with other dogs.”
“We went on a last minute Thanksgiving event and we were able to book Ximena the Wednesday night. Ximena sent us multiple videos and pictures of peanut playing around in her beautiful yard with her own dog and family. Peanut received lots of cuddles from Ximena and her family as well. We were updated of Peanut’s activity during the entire time Ximena had him. We would definitely book with Ximena again and highly recommend her to watch your fur baby.”
“Maritza is an absolute dream of a sitter. She is everything you would want in someone caring for your fur baby- attentive, considerate, responsive and communicative. She makes sure to make note of any special needs for your pup and is very understanding of any behavioral needs. She's very aware some dogs need time to acclimate or are sometimes shy and will adjust according to the needs of your pet. She's amazing at what she does and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter who will care for your pet like her own.”
About: Hello there! My husband, two kids, and I live in East Long Beach. Feel free to send me a message to see what we can schedule! Thank you for your time! I currently work part-time from home. My kids (ages 6 & 11) love animals too and they help me out with routine, safety, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for. We are great at following each pet's routine closely based on the owner's instructions. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, light exercise, and any medications as directed. We make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for during each visit, clean up after meals or play, and provide photos so owners know their pet is doing well.
“Amazing dog sitter! Katie took my boy on very last minute and is very sweet and respectful. She did everything above and beyond to make my boy as comfortable as he could be and the photos she sent through the duration proved it. Definitely will rebook. 10/10. Thank you Katie!”
About: I had a family dog for 13 years! Luna was such a good girl and very energetic. She has since passed and her energy is deeply missed! Having so much time with Luna allows me to say I have great experience with dogs both in their senior and puppy years. I am a full time college student. Starting in September my schooling is fully online. That way I will have plenty of time to tend to the pets. I have a fully secured backyard with grass, shade and cement. The yard is a good size for dogs to play and relax. As for inside, there is an AC for hot days and the dogs are allowed on the couches and beds.
“Maritzabeth took great care of my children and was available last minute. She responded to my messages quickly and provided me with updates. My children walked out her door with a smile 😊”
“Ok, where do I start with Caroline. Well, the first attempt with finding a dog sitter was a huge fail. Then, here came Caroline. OMG, she is absolutely amazing especially knowing my husband and I are first time dog owners. My sweet baby boy Willie has never been left alone as my husband works from home. But the 1 day he had to go into the field, Caroline came to our rescue. She is the perfect person for your dog especially if they are shy. Willie walked away with her as if he's known her his whole 2 years of life. She made him feel so secured and loved just as we do. I can't wait to book her again as Willie is in GOOD hands.”

About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my life ever since I was a little kid. I grew up with Golden Retrievers, several cats, and my family always fostered dogs in need. I am very passionate about animals and will do all I can to provide for them and respect their needs. I currently work a full time job during the weekdays, but my evenings and weekends are free. This still allows me to check on your animals, go on long walks, and provide any additional play or cuddle time. I live in a house with a spacious backyard that my own pup loves to relax in. I also live by several parks that are great walks for some exercise.
“Mariah was wonderful with both our babies! She is so sweet and I can tell my doggy’s loved her. We are are turning Friday lol…that’s how great she is! Definitely 5 star review⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I have 2 dogs, and have taken care of many dogs & cats over the years! I love being active (playing fetch, going on walks) and taking the time and attention to bring out the best and quirky parts of their personality <3 I work from home, so I am flexible with times/dates/working on the weekdays. I am a morning person, so am able to take them early mornings if needed! I take care of pets both at my house and at client’s houses. I have a large grass front yard, and a fully fenced off house. I also live next to a park and can walk them there everyday. I have a large Bernedoodle and a medium sized Lagotto Romagnolo at home to keep them company. We have a large crate if crate is requested/necessary.
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I understand their needs for a fun, caring and safe environment. I’m confident to be a reliable pet sitter for ur furry friend. I have my own best friend who loves belly rubs so I can say I’m an expert on bully rubs and having a good time . I’m currently a college student who has a good amount of free time for walks and care. My morning work best but afternoon are great as well. Whether I'm in my own home or theirs, I maintain a clean and safe environment. I’ll always make sure to get details from owners about the needs and preferences their pets have.

“Hannah is so pleasant and kind! My dog is usually on guard when there’s someone he hasn’t met at the door, but he was excited and immediately gravitated towards Hannah, tail wagging and everything! She did very well with my 80 lb baby and would definitely schedule walks with her again!”
“The pups had a great time! I could tell from the look on their faces on the adorable pics sent to me while I was away. No complaints and I have plans to request Brionna again in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have loved them for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with the everyday care, attention, and patience that comes with having them. One thing that really sets me apart is how naturally I connect with shy or hesitant dogs. I’ve always had the most nervous dogs among my friends and family warm up to me surprisingly quickly! I’m patient and gentle, and I never rush a dog that needs time to feel comfortable. I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine and give them the attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles they’re used to. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I work from home three days a week, so I’m able to provide plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I’m especially open to longer daytime stays and doggy day care during the week. I’m also flexible and available for weekend care depending on my schedule. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, and needs, and I’m especially patient with shy or nervous dogs. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions and make sure dogs are supervised, secure, and given plenty of attention. I have two babies of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my home or visiting them in theirs, I treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own.

About: "I’ve loved and cared for dogs since high school, treating every pup like my own family. I offer dedicated personal attention, sticking closely to their normal routine with daily walks, active playtime, regular feeding, and frequent photo updates for complete peace of mind." I have school on Mondays from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Aside from that short window, my schedule is flexible and open for dedicated pet care. I prioritize pet safety by maintaining a secure home environment with constant supervision. I closely follow all care instructions, keep dogs safely leashed during walks, and ensure your pet feels secure, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay.
“I’ve used Maria’s service for the entire month of January. She truly was a lifesaver and super flexible. She shows up on time and provides updates after her walks. Bolt loved her visits every time. I’ll definitely use her as my go to walker going forward.”
About: I’m very passionate about caring for pets. I have a 6-year-old Shina Inu whom my world revolves around. I know how it feels to be nervous about finding care for your pets. I'm available for drop in visits and dog walks. If your pet is aggressive, I'm sorry I cannot care for them. I work from home which allows me to give full attention to your dog. I’m available for walks and drop in visits on from Friday to Monday. *Boarding not available at this time* We live in a gated community so you won’t have to worry about your pup getting loose. Our home is vacuumed, mopped and sanitized almost daily. Please consider bathing your dog before boarding. I do allow dogs on furniture :)
“Brandon was wonderful with our dogs. He was compassionate, attentive, and it was clear that he truly cared about them and their well-being. We felt very comfortable having him take care of them, and everything went smoothly. I would definitely use Brandon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker.”
“Natalie is great! Communicates efficiently. Takes the time to make sure our pup is comfortable before and after her walks. Our pup looks forward to her routine walks each and every time.”
About: I started having a genuine love for all animals after I got my two puppies Simba and Solomon. They are four year old energetic, lovable golden retrievers, so I have experience handling medium-large sized dogs. I’m also the designated dog walker for when my cousins decide to go on vacations and leave their dogs behind. I am currently a full time construction project manager. This gives me a flexible schedule to check in on dogs throughout the day as needed. I don’t have a set start or end time for work so it’s very helpful to adjust to different schedules for each dog. I have two golden retrievers who mainly stay in the backyard but also are brought in the house sometimes. They are trained to stay off the furniture and places that we want to keep clean like my kitchen and bedrooms. They know by the tone of my voice of when I’m playing around with them versus when they need to listen to my instructions. I’ve done the same thing for the dogs I’ve watched and even though they’re not as familiar with me, they seem to listen to what I tell them to do.
About: Hello everyone! I’m an enthusiastic amateur photographer with a serious passion for capturing the unique personalities of dogs, cats, and all kinds of pets. I’m actively working to expand my pet photography portfolio and would love to create beautiful, heartfelt images of your furry family members. Whether it’s playful action shots in the park, cozy in-home portraits, or candid moments during a walk or playtime, I bring patience, treats, and a camera everywhere I go. I’m still building my collection, so I’m happy to offer very affordable (or even complimentary) photography sessions when you book me for dog walking, pet sitting, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m gentle, reliable, and genuinely love animals — your pets will be happy and relaxed while I snap some amazing shots you’ll treasure. From goofy zoomies to sweet sleepy cuddles, I aim to freeze those special moments in time. If you’re open to a sitter who also doubles as a pet photographer, let’s team up! Message me to chat about your pet’s personality and what kind of photos you’d love. Can’t wait to meet your four-legged friends and add more adorable images to my growing portfolio! 📸🐶🐱 I'm a retired veteran who has a lot of free time on his hands. I fostered animals while serving in the military and wanted to get back into caring for animals Always flexible with animals and the level of care/attention they require. More than willing to be out and about for a while or stay in because they're home bodies
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I treat every pet as if they were my own while also focusing on building a real bond and understanding their individual personality. I don’t just provide basic care—I take the time to earn their trust so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’m also very comfortable with senior pets who may need a slower pace, extra patience, medication reminders, gentle walks, and a calm, reassuring presence. I am also happy to reinforce basic training, provide mental stimulation through play and enrichment activities, and accommodate senior pets who may need extra patience and gentle care. I am not here to just take care of your pet while you’re away I’m here to treat it as my own and that requires real bonding and giving it so much love that I would want for my own fur baby . I’m currently not working as why I decided to look into something I love doing. My dream has always been to work with animals as I grew up drawing horses, dogs, and cats ! I always knew it is something I aspired to be around :) I have a dog of my own he is 8 years very friendly but can ask for his own space as he is older although he is obsessed with tiny dog haha!

“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining each dog’s regular routine. I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog feels at home. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing with plenty of attention, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, medications, and any special instructions to ensure consistency and peace of mind. You can count on regular photo updates, reliable communication, and dependable care throughout your dog’s stay. My goal is to treat every dog like family and make their time with me fun, safe, and as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m available for weekend boarding and love giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving home away from home. Every dog receives personalized care based on their routine, energy level, and personality. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playing fetch, snuggles, or simply relaxing in a quiet environment, I make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved throughout their stay. Please message me with your scheduling needs and I will do my best to accommodate. Thank you <3 Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to relax and a fully fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor time. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I closely monitor them during play and throughout the day. A crate is available if your dog is crate-trained or if they feel more comfortable having their own quiet space.
“Grateful they were able to accommodate us last minute! My dog is a gentle giant and they kept him safe for us for the night, I loved getting picture and videos. Thank you!”
“I can’t say enough amazing things about our first experience with Maritza. From the moment I contacted her, I felt confident about her taking care of our furbaby! We did a meet and greet before Hershey's stay and we could tell that this was the perfect place for him while we had to go out of town. It’s clear that Maritza loves what they do—my dog was treated like family, not just a client. Communication was outstanding the entire time. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes about how my dog was doing, which made being away so much easier. It was obvious that Hershey was happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. What really stood out was the attention to detail and genuine care. Maritza took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, and made sure everything was followed perfectly. When I picked my dog up, Hershey was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for—which says everything. Honestly, I think he was sad to leave! He had so much fun with the other dogs and since it was Easter weekend, Maritza even did a egg hunt with all of them! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Maritza. This was hands-down the BEST pet care experience we've ever had, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“My dog Lucy a large Goldendoodle loved her time spent with Jennifer . There were a couple of dogs for her to play with and she seemed really happy when we went to pick her up. She never stays with anyone so I’m very happy it went so well . Thank you Jennifer”
“Allycia was great taking care of Luna for couple of days. Very nice and easy to talk to. She sent us pictures and information daily. Definitely will book with Allycia again. Thank you Allycia!”
“This was our first time ever using Rover and we couldn’t be happier with Derek. He sent us videos and pictures. Maui clearly enjoyed his time and Derek took great care of him. Definitely 10/10 recommend.”
“Absolutely amazing experience leaving our beloved Bulldogs with Sara and her family for a long weekend. She had great questions at drop-off, was in constant communication with updates and photos throughout the stay, and even provided cute little pet report cards at pick-up. HIGHLY recommend. We will definitely be requesting her services again the future.”
“Second stay for our boy Rip with Sabrina! Consistent updates with great pics! He is so comfortable staying with her in her home that for my partner and I, there’s NO other sitter option for our little buddy. Thanks again Sabrina for the over the top amazing love and care you give to our pup! We went on a cruise and had no reception but also had no worries knowing he was in good hands. Gave us the ability to relax, and Rip seems to have also had his own spectacular mini vacation! Can’t say thank you enough!”
“Erin is a gem. She worked around my schedule and cared for my dog Journey while I was in the hospital. He made new friends while he was there and was exhausted when he came home from his adventure. She was very accommodating to his special diet and supplement routine as well. We will be a returning client as needed so Journey can have more new adventures and be embraced by Erin’s care.”
“Laura took such great care of my baby Logan! She communicated very well and even sent me video showing how he was doing. Highly recommended! She was really flexible and accommodating, especially considering my very last-minute booking. Thank you, Laura!”
“Chris is amazing! He is super chill and amazing with dogs. My dog Fenchy had a really good time for 4 days. Chris updated me with pictures and I can tell that my doggy had her own little holiday with Chris. She loved him! I can only recommend Chris - thank you so much for taking such a great care over my baby 🥰”
“Kim and Matthew were excellent caretakers for our pup for a one night stay at their home! We had never used Rover before and we could not have been more pleased. They treated our girl like their own and sent us pictures of her relaxing comfortably which really put our minds at ease. They also have a 10 year old son who played with her. If you are looking for a warm, friendly, responsible and communicative family to care for your pet, look no further! 10/10 highly recommend!!”
“Caroline was awesome and the perfect sitter for our dog, Happy! He can be somewhat sensitive which makes it hard for us to leave him with other people, but Caroline was not only attentive and understanding of how he can be, but also very accommodating and communicative with us on how he is doing by sending pictures, videos and constant updates during our entire trip! Her home and neighborhood was also excellent. Highly recommend and will be booking Caroline again in the future!”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”
“Wonderful person, she kept me updated the whole time (me and my husband were out for 5 days) Vanessa sent me pictures and videos everyday at all times. Will definitely be requiring her assistance in the future. Totzy misses her!”
