“As this was our first time leaving our newly rescued dog, we were rather nervous. We chose Ivan because he offered consistent monitoring, freedom to explore outside and inside, and doggie playmates of similar size. The stay was even better than we could have hoped for and we were grateful for the daily pictures and regular communication. Our Sally was very well loved while we were gone.”
“We had a great experience with Kelly! She took excellent care of our two dogs for several days and kept us updated throughout the stay. We felt fully at ease while we were away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“We boarded our pup with Kitty and we were nervous as it's our first time using Rover. After meeting Kitty, we could tell she is really experienced in taking care of all types of dogs. When we picked up our pup, he was wagging his tail next to Kitty so we know he had a great time and enjoys being with her. We'll be using Kitty for future boardings!”
“Katie and Jason are super star dog sitters! My senior dog, Abby, was very comfortable with them. I loved getting all the updates. Katie was really responsive on text and kept to Abby’s schedule and routines. I am so thankful we found them!”
“Felt very reassured during the entire booking. I received constant updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She always asked questions when unsure and was very flexible to make sure my dog got the care he needed. Very fast at responding. Overall great experience.”
“Leeun and her family were one of the best Rover experiences we have had. They are kind and very responsive, easy to communicate with and sent lots of updates on our dog. They were very attentive to his needs, probably giving him more attention and walks than we can at home . We would have them dog sit again in a heartbeat!”
“Cindy took such good care of my dog! She sent photos every day, along with an update of how my doggie was doing. Cindy made sure to give my dog her eye drops twice a day, which isn’t always easy. Between Cindy’s yard and walks, my dog got plenty of outside time and, from the photos, I’m sure she got lots of snuggle time, too. I will definitely book Cindy again to take care of my dog!”
“I’m a new user to Rover and these two have been outstanding for my first experience. They kept me updated with photos and videos on how my dog (Charlie) was doing and how much fun he was having interacting with their dogs. 10/10 would highly recommend again.”
“Nala was so happy to see Meghana when we dropped her off. Nala seems to have so much fun and Meghana sends great updates. We’re grateful to Meghana for being so flexible and communicative about delays in pick up due to unforeseen circumstances.”
“Leticia took such good care of our sweet old girl. We loved the pictures and communication. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Leticia again and will recommend her to friends. Thank you!”
“Michael was fantastic! This was the first time I had left Bojangles for more than an overnight and I had no cause to worry. His communication was constant, and when I picked up Bojangles, it was obvious he had been well cared for. Will definitely be using Michael again.”
“Great couple! Very responsive. They really took care of my dog and I can tell that my dog had a great time at their home. I received the photos of my dog every day and knew that my dog was treated very well. Highly recommend!”
“Mario took good care of our dog while we were out of town. He sent us pics during our dog's stay and would respond timely to any concerns or questions we had. Thanks Mario!”
“Christine was fantastic with “Bo.” She kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and stories while we were gone. Bo was very comfortable with Christine. She was genuinely sweet with him and made him feel comfortable right away. We highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs a caring person to take care of their four legged family members.”
“Kiara was great and we would definitely board Ethel with her again. Both she and her kids clearly love dogs and Ethel gave her a nice goodbye on the way out. Kiara was great at communicating honestly how Ethel was doing as she settled in, and Ethel came back happy and relaxed. Thanks so much for taking great care of our old girl!”
“Communicative and I really enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup during her stay! Stella I'm sure enjoyed all the play time and walks~ Thank you! Would love for her to stay again!”
“Diana and Michael are so great! Our pup has really taken to them, loves playing with their dog and is excited when we drop him off at their place. It makes us feel at ease knowing he is in such good hands, and is enjoying his time while we are away. They both are very conscientious and prompt communicators, and are also flexible as we have been delayed in our travels before and they make it work with adjusted pick up times. We highly recommend them!”
“Anne is wonderful and patient with our senior dog. She really made him feel safe and comfortable as he has such separation anxiety. She sent us so many pictures and updates. She is also so observant with his behavior. Thank you Anne for being such a loving and kind sitter! We appreciate you do much!”

“Wow! We had such a great experience with Christine watching our cat, Scout! She was super responsive with communication throughout the whole process. We had a great meet and greet with her and Scout prior to our booking. Christine was great with reaching out, she left detailed report cards after each visit and took great pics of our kitty so we could see how she was doing. Christine was absolutely wonderful and we would highly recommend!”
“This was our first time having Jasmeen watch our cats, and she did an amazing job! Right from the first day, we could tell they were in good hands. She has a ton of experience and shared great tips and tricks for their care. We loved getting daily messages and photo updates. We will definitely be asking Jasmeen to take care of our cats moving forward!”
“Stephanie did a great job of taking care of our cat while we were gone. She managed his food, litter, and his pets. And the most important was that he loved spending time with her! Stephanie took the time and care to make sure our cat was feeling comfortable. We definitely appreciate that and look forward to working with Stephanie in the future!”
“Maria took excellent care of Spark and Pinot while I was away. She was took detailed notes on every visit, giving me the peace of mind that my pets were in good hands. She also went above and beyond to keep their litter area clean. Overall a great experience”
About: Hi! I’m Blessy, a devoted cat owner who understands that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I have hands on experience caring for cats through feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, grooming assistance, medication administration, and monitoring behavior and well being.

I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is in good hands.
“This was our 1st time using Tricia with our two kitties and hopefully won’t be the last. She was such a pleasure to work with. Sent pics, updates and had great communication throughout. Would not hesitate to use again for our two boys.”
“To be able to travel for a few days and know that your pets are in the loving care of Aimi is a wonderful gift! Aimi is very communicative, displays a great sense of responsibility and genuine care for my littles.”
“Zahudy was great. She was very attentive our dog, Oliver, and communicated in detail with us every step of the way. Oliver behaved as if we never left home and I think Zahudy played a major role in him doing so well.”

“Katrina did a wonderful job taking care of my 3 cats. She was very attentive to each of my cats’ needs and put great effort into playing, talking and feeding them. She gave updates with photos, videos, and messages and was always very responsive. We definitely recommend her and will book her again in the future.”
“Aik was the perfect cat sitter! Very friendly, was proactive and took initiative in the care, and was very communicative. He also took very good care of my home and cleaned up all messes. Would definitely work with Aik again, and my cat loved him too! They can tell who good people are. Thanks Aik!”

“Winnie and Boba are THE BEST!!! 🏆 Winnie accommodated a last-minute request over Thanksgiving weekend so my husband and I could take a day trip. She even offered a meet-and-greet video call beforehand, which really put my mind at ease since it was our second time using Rover for dog sitting. 🙏 Throughout our communications, Winnie was friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful. My doggo had a blast playing with Boba, and she sent us plenty of photos and videos showing how much fun they were having together. 🦮🐕🦺 When we picked him up, my dog was clearly sad to leave - always a good sign! 🥹🥲😭🫶 We're already looking forward to our next booking. Highly recommend Winnie and Boba, especially if you have a smaller breed that likes to run and play. ✨”
“Anna was amazing! Her communication was very quick and clear. She sent me tons of pictures throughout the day and made me feel very comfortable. Leaving my two-year-old dog with her for the day. She was super flexible and pick up and drop off time and Rilee just put all of my pet sitting anxiety at ease. I will definitely be using her again!”

“Carina was amazing with my senior dog. She watched every little detail, made sure he was comfortable, and treated him with real care. She even took him to the park so his day stayed full and stimulating. Couldn’t ask for better, highly recommended.”
About: I’ve taken care of domestic animals since I was very young. Animals have always been part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them, pets are part of our daily routine. My daily routine already includes caring for dogs. I run a small mobile dog grooming business, so I am used to being around pets every day. I’m also used to taking care of animals since I was young, so feeding, walking, playing, and giving attention to pets fits very naturally into my routine. I live in an apartment, but my complex has a dog park and very dog-friendly spaces. Pets will always receive attention, supervision, and a calm environment. I make sure they are safe, comfortable, and follow the routine provided by the owner, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest.
“My two dogs loved staying there, especially Cha Cha. She was extraordinarily active. It is possible that she can play and socialize with other dogs. Kitty is very caring. She took a few photos and sent them to me. Definitely I will consider her boarding services next time when I am away on vacation ”
“Thank you Shirley for a great first daycare experience for both us and our pup. From keeping us informed at all times (with pics) to giving our puppy a wonderful environment within which to play and rest, everything was top notch. Shirley even went a step beyond and gave us good advice about our pup’s ear care. Thank you!”
About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.
“Toffee was cared extremely well by Yiteng and his wife during the full-day daycare period. This is the first time our dog Toffee went to a completely new place and be cared by a "total stranger", which made Toffee super stressed and hard to do her routine normally. But thanks to the loving cares Toffee received, Yiteng's wife made Toffee feeling like at home and getting comfortable in the new place very quickly. We received many update messages and videos/pictures during the day to see how Toffee was doing and also knowing that Toffee got full attention from the sitter. Another factor we liked the service the most is the nice outdoor environment where Toffee could walk around and do her potty break, which was similar to Toffee's regular routine that she used to while at home. This made it so much easier for Toffee to get acclimated quickly. We required specific feeding routine for Toffee starting with the soft food we made (need to be refrigerated) followed by the hard food. Yiteng's wife is so accommodating on all of our requests, never say NO to any of our suggestions. I am truly grateful for the super loving care Toffee got and I strongly recommend the service from Yiteng's family. I am definitely planning to book this service again.”
“Kelly was great with our 2 little dogs. We were in town attending a family function and we were able to book with her from 4:30pm to 10:45pm on a Sunday. She provided us with picture updates and was really communicative which made us, worried dog parents, feel better. We highly recommend her and will use her services again next time we’re in this area.”
About: Welcome to Lauri and Friends Pet Care — where hospitality-inspired care meets canine adventure. Every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and communication style, and I love learning what helps them feel safe, confident, and balanced. My customer service management experience at an emergency veterinary hospital (formerly SF SPCA, now SF Animal Care & Control) gave me valuable experience supporting the wellbeing and safety of both feline and canine companions. My family and career have also been deeply rooted in the hospitality world, which I love incorporating into my pet care approach. From structured adventure walks and personalized updates to boutique-style boarding and in-home care, my goal is to create enriching experiences that bring peace of mind to both pets and their humans. My lifelong pet care journey began with caring for a wide variety of personalities and breeds within my own family — from the spirited energy of German Shepherds like Rocky and Ozzy, to the playful antics of Doberman mixes like Josh, and the gentle (sometimes spirited!) companionship of Bernese Mountain Dogs like Oliver. These experiences deepened my appreciation for the unique emotional and physical needs every animal brings, as well as the powerful bonds they share with humans. One of my greatest strengths is helping dogs and humans feel more connected, understood, and at ease together. Compassion, communication, safety, and authenticity are at the heart of everything I do. Your pets and home will be treated with the same level of attentiveness, respect, and care that I would want for my own family. Our initial meeting will be more than just a checklist of routines and rules. Let's uncover your pet's unique language of preferred commands and desired tricks—because learning is an adventure, and fostering good behavior is an ongoing journey. While I strive to accommodate your scheduling needs to the best of my ability, please keep in mind that creating a seamless experience for your pet may require some adjustments. Your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities, and I'm dedicated to going the extra mile to ensure they receive the care they deserve. I appreciate your understanding that sometimes, good things take time. Communication is essential to our partnership. While I endeavor to respond as quickly as possible, please understand that there might be moments when my hands are full of paws, toys, and laughter. Thank you in advance for your patience—I assure you, your concerns and queries are valuable to me. My schedule revolves around your pet's needs, with regular walks and house-sitting routines thoughtfully planned. And for those rare moments, I'm here as your pet's emergency companion to the vet. This isn't just a side gig; it's my full-time calling—a career shaped by passion and expertise. Anticipate extraordinary experiences—playful moments during walks, explorations in local parks, and outdoor adventures (or a backpack outing for young puppies so no paws touch the ground). While I stay present with your pets, I also capture candid memories to share with you. Now, let's delve into the services I offer, designed to cater to your furry friends:
“Letitia met me outside when I arrived with my Golden Retriever, Winston. I was leaving him for several hours to familiarize him to Letitia & her house. Letitia was very nice & took good care of Winston. I feel confidant Winston will enjoy staying with her next week.”
About: My home is your pet’s home 🫶🏻 Safe and trusted environment 💛 I have been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. As a dedicated dog and cat owner myself, I understand that your pet is family. I am a very active person who loves long walks, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. I’m also highly organized and comfortable following specific feeding or medication schedules to keep your pup's routine consistent. I currently work in healthcare administration during the week, which means my weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care! I am available for full-time boarding and house sitting from Friday evening through Sunday night. Because I am a student and work a consistent schedule, I am very reliable and punctual with my check-ins and walk times. Your pup will have my full attention during their stay! I live in a pet-friendly environment in San Mateo where your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves making new friends, making my home a great 'social' spot for your pup. I am very comfortable with 'Meet & Greets' to ensure everyone gets along. I maintain a clean, safe space and am happy to accommodate crate training or any specific home boundaries you have in place.
“Sally and Eric are so awesome! Super friendly, pleasant, very communicative and thorough. Hira had a fabulous day with them, walks and plenty of playtime. They’re very responsible and I felt so happy to have found them. Hira got a lot of love and pets all day, I felt very comfortable to leave my fur baby with them. Highly recommend them!”
About: Over the past few years, I’ve been working through chronic throat problems — and because speaking has been difficult, spending time with pets has meant even more to me. I’ve been caring for my family’s golden retriever, Toby, for five years and have lovingly mastered the art of disaster control (mud puddles, chewed socks, you name it). I bring patience, gentleness, and genuine joy to every pup I meet — your dog will be loved like my own. I’m currently in pre-PhD and have a flexible schedule with no full-time job commitments. That means I can give your dog consistent attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Caring for animals brings me real joy and grounding - it would be a wonderful part of my routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on helping them feel completely comfortable and secure in their own space. I follow your routines closely — from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes and playtime rituals — so everything feels familiar for your pup. I’m gentle, clean, and respectful of your home, and always make sure to leave things even nicer than I found them.
About: I have had dogs and cats under my care my whole life. One cat had ceribal hypoplasia and required assistance with all aspects of life bathroom, walking, getting into bed for naps and eating. My 2 cats that I have now are mine and each others emotional support. They are both harness and leash trained and stroller trained. I am a rare Male Cat Lady :) I am attending college after a 17 year hiatus and most of my classes are on-line. I have my own small business in computer repair and IT. I make my own schedule and can fit pet care into that purrr-fectly I would care for your pets as if they were my own. Following your instructions to the letter and showering them in love or giving space as needed to each individual personality.
“Diana was so welcoming and accommodating to Teddy. They have a lovely house with a big back yard that he loved. She was also flexible with seeing whether Teddy would get along with other dogs she was boarding. The pictures she sent me that day made me feel like Teddy was in such good hands. He loved it there.”
“Kiara was an amazing sitter for my little Luna. She was really flexible with the drop off and pick up times to accommodate my work schedule. She gave me status updates and pictures throughout the day and I knew Luna was quite happy playing with her kids and having multiple long walks. I will definitely book with Kiara again!”

“All I can say is that when you go on vacation and your a pet parent, the last thing you want is to worry about the well being of your dog. Well KATIE definitely gave me peace of mind and and allowed me to enjoy my vacation knowing that my dog Boris was in GREAT hands. After the meet and greet, I already had a sense of comfort because of her experience and super friendly demeanor. She also sent me pictures of Boris during walks and my family even told me that my dog can sense that she was close to come get him because he would start to act anxious and wait for her at the door. Knowing that truly solidifies her ability to love and care for your pet. If I ever need someone to walk/watch my dog(s) again, Katie will be my definite go to. THANK YOU KATIE! Oh...she also gave us a farewell dog toy and homemade chocolate chip cookies on her last day walking Boris. This is great customer service and definitely built a great rapport with my family and I.”
“Maya is a reliable and caring dog lover. She took great care in getting to know my shy dog and reassured me that my pet would be in good hands. I’ve gone ahead and booked her for much of May! Great experience.”
“I have books Trisha several times in the past and will continue to do so. My dog is a working German Shepherd who needs a firmer hand but also can be very affectionate if she trusts you. Tricia knows how to handle her, and has earned her respect which can be seen by the photos showing her years at 45° and that goofy grin that only comes out when she's comfortable around somebody. If you have a working dog, I definitely recommend Tricia. 👍 ⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐ ⭐”
“Shirley's sister took care my old and stubborn dog very well. She doesn't force him to walk long, she read the dog's needs. My dog is healthy and happy to see her everyday. She communicated well with me also, sent me not only pictures, but also a detailed description about Milo's behavior and status.”
“My puppy felt comfortable with Julia. She knows dogs and what to look for preventing him from eating stuff of the ground. I highly recommend her as a dog walker! Thanks Julia :-)”
“Cheryll is awesome. She truly cares about the dogs she walks. She gave my pups a great walk and was very responsive and followed my instructions perfectly. I will definitely use her again as a dog walker, and would highly recommend her to any dog parents out there.”
About: I grew up with labs and lab mixes. I have trained dogs previously. I spent several years volunteering with Guide Dogs for the Blind. Animals have always been very comfortable with me. I am currently looking for work, so I have a flexible schedule. I am able to be available as needed. I understand people's lives are busy, so I try to be flexible for the dog/cat's needs. I respect their home. I treat their home as if it's my own. I respect their fur baby's space. I would never harm an animal, especially one that's part of the family.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature. I grew up with a dog and a duck, and have continuously lived in homes with cats and dogs through college and graduate school, so I’m very comfortable with their routines and behavior. I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family over the years, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and keeping pets on their normal schedule. I also have three tortoises of my own, including one I’ve had for nearly 23 years, which has made me especially attentive to routines, environment, and long-term care. I am currently volunteering at the Kitten Nursery with the Peninsula Humane Society, where I help taking care of kittens too young for adoption. I have a very flexible schedule through freelance consulting work, which allows me to be available for pet care most days of the week, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether it’s regular visits or last-minute needs. The only consistent commitment I have is volunteering on Monday afternoons at the Peninsula Humane Society, but outside of that, I’m highly flexible and able to adjust to your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box or cleanup routines, exercise, and any specific preferences your pet is used to. I take a calm and patient approach, especially with shy or more independent pets, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own space. I also keep the home clean and organized, and treat it with the same respect I would my own. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Lauri is absolutely amazing with our anxious rescue Piper. From the very first meet-and-greet where she showed up in bright colored leggings so that Piper could identify her, to her very patient steps to build trust and rapport with our pup and each family member (even remembering career paths and school trips!), Lauri is nothing but pure heart, sincerity, and kindness. This particular neighborhood walk turned into last minute daycare on our mutual continual conversations, when we all could see Piper coming out of her shell. One of Lauri’s many great talents is being able to discern the limits of our Piper — when to challenge her and when to give her space — and this gift has been rewarded with Piper welcoming Lauri with a greater speed than she ever has anyone else. We are thrilled to have found Lauri and know that she will be folded into our village for years to come.”
About: Have volunteered at a cat shelter for six years with young and senior kitties, and have had puppies all my life! Very comfortable with the grouchiest or shyest of the bunch. I focus on socializing and enriching activities so that your kiddos can go straight to a nap after I leave. Happy to do some cleaning during my visit to keep things tidy. Laid off right now and apart from studying for a certification, I'm home and available for visits! My radius is set small so I should be a max ~10 min drive away, easy :-) When doing home visits it's important to me to show respect for you and your home while you're gone. Open to following any additional non-pet instructions to keep your home fresh!

About: My personal approach to dog care is grounded in genuine care for their well being. Working with my clients I provide prompt communication to ensure your dog is safe, happy, and healthy! Growing up my family had a beautiful 30lb dog that I helped care for from a puppy to old age. Being a part of this process has shown me how to support dogs in each stage of life from rambunctious puppies (structure, training and enrichment) to easing the aging process (special diet, new steps to climb onto the couch, shorter walks etc). Depending on the activity needs of your pup, I’m happy to provide daily walks or short runs (1-3 miles). I'm currently taking a gap year so I have plenty of time for your pups! I'm available weekdays and, with advance planning, can provide housesitting through weekends as well. I live in a single family home with three dogs. However, our family dogs like their space, and it is not available for dog boarding.

I hope to provide this same experience for your pets, whether it be a short drop in or an overnight visit.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 13 years old, and have had cats and dogs for my entire adult life. I have helped friends and family take care of their pets for just as long. I love animals, and their well-being is my utmost priority. I have extensive experience and knowledge on what pets need from experience with my own pets and taking care of pets for others. When I am traveling or need to be away from home for any reason, my main concern is always whether my cats and dogs are happy and getting everything they need. My mission is to do everything I can to give you the worry-free experience I would want myself. I am self-employed, so my schedule is flexible around what you and your pet(s) need. I am available at most times of the day and on weekends/holidays. I understand that every pet’s need can differ based on the situation. I will care for your pet according to his/her individual need.
“Allison has been such an amazing "friend" to our dog, Kona. We can tell how much Kona is loved and cared for while we are away at work and school. We get regular updates on how Kona is doing, including pictures! Would definitely recommend Allison for your dog's needs!”
“va did an amazing job caring for and walking my dog, Riley, while I was traveling. She was extremely professional, responsive, and reliable throughout the entire process, which gave me a great deal of peace of mind while away. The biggest sign of how wonderful she was is that Riley was incredibly happy, calm, and content when I returned home. It was clear he was very well cared for and comfortable with her. I truly appreciated the communication and attention she provided, and I would absolutely work with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life, I am an animal person to the core. I have free time and would love to take care of your dog and provide my dog with a friend, win-win! I believe in sending LOTS of photos and updates, and making sure your animal baby is safe and happy while you are away! Your animal baby will be cared for as if they are my own. My fiancé and I both work from hom and our dog is 4 years old and super friendly. If your dog wants a friend to walk with or have a play date with or just stay the night, let me know :)! I'm taking time off from work and I'm free all the time. As for a routine, I take my dog for atleast 3 walks a day. We also go on trails hikes or to the beach. I treat any pet like it's my own. Having another dog around would be great! I communicate with my customers for any specifics or special requests within reason.

“Katie and Jason are super star dog sitters! My senior dog, Abby, was very comfortable with them. I loved getting all the updates. Katie was really responsive on text and kept to Abby’s schedule and routines. I am so thankful we found them!”
“Leeun and her family were one of the best Rover experiences we have had. They are kind and very responsive, easy to communicate with and sent lots of updates on our dog. They were very attentive to his needs, probably giving him more attention and walks than we can at home . We would have them dog sit again in a heartbeat!”
“Leticia took such good care of our sweet old girl. We loved the pictures and communication. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Leticia again and will recommend her to friends. Thank you!”
“Christine was fantastic with “Bo.” She kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and stories while we were gone. Bo was very comfortable with Christine. She was genuinely sweet with him and made him feel comfortable right away. We highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs a caring person to take care of their four legged family members.”
“Kiara was great and we would definitely board Ethel with her again. Both she and her kids clearly love dogs and Ethel gave her a nice goodbye on the way out. Kiara was great at communicating honestly how Ethel was doing as she settled in, and Ethel came back happy and relaxed. Thanks so much for taking great care of our old girl!”
“Communicative and I really enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup during her stay! Stella I'm sure enjoyed all the play time and walks~ Thank you! Would love for her to stay again!”
“Irina was a fantastic dog sitter for our Sophie! She clearly loved her, and we could tell Sophie was happy and well cared for the whole time. Irina sent lots of updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Rachael and her partner were nothing short of amazing with our dog Indy. Indy was instantly relaxed when he arrived for the night at Rachael’s, and had a lovely evening of cuddles and play with Rachael and her “crew”. Her dog and kitty were equally as welcoming to Indy! The picture updates were amazing and unexpected, and I could tell Indy was incredibly comfortable for his overnight stay. 10/10 recommend Rachael, and we will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“We were so fortunate to find Berra to keep our 13 month old pup while we went on a fishing tour. We actually left her with Berra overnight since we were leaving so early the next day. Berra was so kind and took great care of our girl keeping us updated with pictures along the way. Our pup was tired and happy and we couldn’t have asked for any better care. Thank you Berra.”
