“Absolutely the BEST dog sitter for our 6 month old Kota. The photos and videos and updates daily made being apart while we were on vacation much more enjoyable. This was Kota’s first time away from us and I felt a bit guilty making him come home! Michelle made sure he had fun and got lots of socializing with other pups she was watching. Swimming in the kiddie pool was definitely a highlight! So much playtime meant afternoon naps where he snored. We will definitely be checking to make sure Michelle can welcome Kota back before we book our next vacation.”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“Thank you to Michelle and David for watching Clover for the weekend. Clover got to sleep on a bed (instead of in her crate‐ yes, it was okayed!) and had a doggy friend her age to run around with. I think she enjoyed herself!”
“Elizabeth boarded our 2 dogs (- Bulldog and a high energy young Cattle dog) for 7 days while we were on vacation. Excellent communication! I loved seeing the daily pictures of them and knowing they were in great hands while we were away. Our dogs are on day 2 of sleeping after boarding. ?. We will definitely request Elizabeth for upcoming/future stays.”
“I am so very thankful to find Rover thru a friend's referral and to find Kris and Joe. This was my first experience with a pet sitter and it was great! I got texts and photos and I enjoyed my camping trip without stressing on the dogs at all. They fed them wonderful homemade food and my fur kids got to play I will certainly use them again and again!”
“Sharon and Albert were great! They were very friendly and communicative. Coordinating with them was very easy, and I appreciated how many photos and updates they sent. Their yard has been "doggified" and appeared to be a nice place for the dogs to hang out. They've been taking care of dogs for a while and know what they're doing. Thanks so much for taking care of Kitty!”
“What a wonderful sitter! The previous reviews were spot on. My dog was extremely well taken care of and came home happier for her experience. The photos that I received of her playful romping were breathtaking and truly reassuring. He was very flexible and hospitable, and I'll never take my dog to a kennel again. Will be using Grant in the future! Highly recommended.”
“Shannon was responsive, kind, and flexible. I had to add 2 more nights unexpectedly for which she happily accepted. She also sent photos and videos so I could rest knowing my senior dog was being taken care of. Will book again!”
“Alyssa was wonderful. Accommodations are 5 star and the love and care she gave our fur baby was also 5 star. We enjoyed our 2 week visit to my family so much more knowing Maple was taken care and loved while we were gone. Alyssa also sent us photos which we really enjoyed getting. Highly recommend and will never take Maple anywhere else now that we have Alyssa as a resource.”
“Irina is experienced. She had a plan ready for acclimating my dogs to their new environment and handled having multiple dogs together well. She was communicative and flexible.”
“I woulds like this to remain a well kept secret to guarantee I would always be able to book with Linda S but that would be very selfish. Linda and her husband are naturals, very relaxed and calm in their interaction with the dogs. The other dogs that were there when I dropped Rosie off were content and happy and it was the same, Rosie included, when I picked her up 3 days later. The property is beautiful and dogs are free to explore and play. Rosie didn't go to a boarding kennel, she had a doggie spa vacation!”
“Jennifer replied so quickly for a last minute need to board my dog oppie! Oppie loved being there and I got updates daily on how he’s doing. Highly recommend Jennifer and her daughters were so cute with Oppie.”
“Victoriya was amazing! She was available last minute to take care of my dog for 10 days. Because our original dog sitter fell through, I was nervous about dropping my dog off. Throughout my trip, she sent me updates and a lot of pictures. She made me feel at ease and I didn’t stress about my pup while I was gone. I will 1000% be using her again in the future!!”
“This was the first time our little dog was going to stay overnight in a new place. Pam was helpful and communicated how he was doing as the week progressed. She was so kind! Our dog was healthy and happy when we picked him up.”
“Tale'A is professional, knowledegable and friendly. She and her family welcomed our dog into their home. He was well cared for during his stay. We will deffinately go back again.”
“Amanda was reliable front start to finish. She was commutative throughout our arranged time. Also sent pictures random throughout the day. Our lincoln seemed at home with their littles. 😀 I hope to be able to use her in near future.”
“Macey takes such great care of my pup, Genji. Macey and her family treat my dog as if he were theirs. Macey also has well-socialized dogs of her own that also love and take care of Genji. This includes her Husky who is about 30xs bigger than Genji. I’ve used Macey twice now and will continue to do so.”
“Derek and his family were great with Bailey! She came home happy and clean, we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. We were most impressed that she ate all her dinner and slept well at night (we thought she would be upset and refuse to do so) but it was just so comfortable at Derek's place. He gave regular updates and responded very quickly if I had any questions. 10/10 recommended. We will definitely use their services again in the future!”

“Justine did a wonderful job taking care of our kitties during our 10-day vacation. We have 2 cats, and one of them is a little shy. Justine went out of her way and brought some fresh catnip to try and get him out of his shell. By the end of the stay, he was already friendly towards her, and even letting her pick him up! We would definitely recommend Justine. Thanks, Justine!”
“Teri was fantastic! She went above and beyond trying to coax our timid cat out from under the bed. Everything was well taken care of and very timely. She was on top of everything and responded to communications very promptly. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”
“Amanda was great with our super shy kitty. He even came out of hiding! A first for any sitter we’ve had. I highly recommend Amanda. She’s kind, caring and attended to every detail. Thank you so much! Tracy & Taylor”

I’ll be walking, feeding, playing with and making your animal feel reassured. Available to take pups on hikes as well if they are well behaved! I currently only am a part time cat mom with my partner. In the past I’ve had experience with pitbulls, German Shepard’s and labradors. I offer over night stay as well. I love animals I have some volunteer pet experience at shelters. Making your pet feel safe and happy is my biggest priority!

I’m available weekdays and weekends any day of the week. Have a great day! I value your pets safety above all things and I make sure to cater to any needs they might have.

“Elizabeth did a great job watching our cats. She is very conscientious, reliable, and communicated with us daily while we were gone. I would welcome her back anytime. And the cats would be happy to see her again too!”
“I can't thank Kat enough!! I had a unique situation, my cat that has diabetes and needs a shot every 12 hours. I have my mom to watch my animals but my little diabetic cat is a pill when I'm not the one giving her her shot, and it was getting more difficult for my mom to do it by herself. Kat literally saved the day!! I felt so much better that my mom had help to make sure she gets her shots! I will be booking her again for sure! Thank you again Kat for everything.”
“Danielle went out of her way and stopped by twice to meet and greet. She shared pictures and communicated with us as the visits went. Highly recommend, we will being booking with her again.”
About: I used to only like dogs until one day I helped my neighbor rescue 14 kittens. I ended up having to foster 4 cats and ended up keeping 2 and got another one so now I have three. I understand how sensitive cats can be compared to dogs and how great they can be. Ill put my utmost effort into your caring for your feline friend.
About: My love for animals is the passion of my whole life. However, my lifestyle as an IT developer involves constant travel, and I don't keep a pet so as not to put it under stress. That is why I offer a unique service — looking after your pet in his native home. My work is remote, which allows me to combine two tasks: to provide your pet with care and attention in a familiar environment and at the same time work on my projects in a comfortable environment. I am not just a pet sitter, but a responsible animal lover who values their comfort and safety.
“Kevin is delightful! He stayed at our house to keep our kitty company for nearly a week. It was such a relief to have him there, knowing that the kitty was getting all the attention she needed. We enjoyed the photos, videos, and updates Kevin sent us while we were away. When we got home the kitty was relaxed and content. After Kevin left, kitty wandered around the house looking for him. Clearly she felt as sage with him as we did!”
About: I currently have a 7 year old cat who is like our child. I also grew up with a cat (that was with me for 20 years!). But my real love for cats started when I started working in animals hospitals, and I discovered that I have a knack for handling the more temperamental/fractious cats. Winning over a shy/scared cat is so rewarding (and takes patience). I am able to give medications if/when needed, but mostly I just want to cuddle them 💜
About: I have been in the pet food industry for three years, I used to leash train puppies, and I have been dog sitting/cat watching for three years as well. I have full availability on the weekends and have some flexibility during the week, specifically weeknights Monday through Thursday. I love doing check ins, walks, and housesitting. I respect peoples things, and appreciate when there are written instructions. I don’t do boarding because I have a Cat that does not do well in stressful environments. However, I am fine doing multiple check-in as long as it works for you and your pet.
About: Your pups new bestie! I have had animals most of my life growing up since childhood and was raised with how to properly care for them. I also have a dog that I love so much! I thoroughly enjoy walks, runs, hikes, and playing with him. I am a big dog person! I currently work part time and am home most of the time. I’m usually home a lot as most of my work can be done from home. The flexibility is very nice and works perfectly with having dogs in our home! We currently have our own dog and so caring for yours will fit naturally into the flow we already have going! I have a fenced yard, where my pup and yours can play as much as they want! We have trails and parks near by for walks and runs, if you’d like for your pup to have exercise in those ways as well.

“My high-energy large Lab and Golden Retriever puppy had an amazing day with Michelle and her family on their farm, and came home tired and well-cared for ❤️. Hope they will be able to visit again soon! Thank you again!”
“Michelle and Dave are amazing! I knew I had found the perfect sitters within minutes. Truly dog lovers. My three year old Pom Chi has never had day care, she loves them! I highly recommend them!”
“Sienna provided a quick response to my booking request, and was willing to take my dog on short notice. She has a large yard, and clean pet friendly home for him to enjoy during his stay. I have complete confidence in her ability to take care of my pet, and I look forward to booking with her again in the future.”
“Leah was great with our boy. Took him for a 1 day daycare and the communication and interaction was great. Our "Pocket" seemed very happy to have a playdate. Will definitely continue to use her.”
“Seriously the best place if you are looking for a dog sitter. My anxious dog hates being away from me but she has found a second home here. I drop her off knowing she will be well cared for, safe, and happy. So grateful to have finally found a family who understands her!”
“My dog Winter had a wonderful time! Pranavi was nice and sent me multiple pictures to let me know my dog was getting along well and was having fun. She was also very accommodating when my pick up had to be later due to the notorious traffic in San Francisco added an hour to my drive. I will definitely let Winter have a fun time again when we're in the area!”
“We were visiting Folsom for a birthday party and left our Pomeranian with Shannon for about 4 hours so we wouldn't have to worry about Belle getting fed by the kids and all. It was so nice to be able to relax while Belle hung out with Shannon and some other dogs! All went well and we got a few videos of Belle! Shannon was very good at communicating with us.”
“We are so grateful Derek, Leslie and their family help look after our sweet fur babies when we are away. The Pitadors are always excited when they know they are going to these wonderful Rover sitter’s home and always come back to our home tuckered out from all the play, love and attention they’ve gotten!”
“Sookie always has a great time with Tammy, and her dogs. I tell her where she's going, she gets very excited, she almost pulls my arm off trying to get inside to see everyone. I feel good knowing she's getting great care.”
“Victoria was so great! She immediately took our last minute request to watch our Banjo boy for the day! Banjo is a rescue with a history of nervous energy and she reassured us that he would be handle a compassion and care. She was frequent with descriptive updates and photos. Her patience with our sensitive pup was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be booking doggy-sitter services with her in the future!”
“Best experience ❤️ I would highly recommend Breanna. I have a high energy puppy and she came home tired and well cared for so I couldn’t ask for anything more. Breanna sent me updates and the cutest pics of them going in walks which was amazing. I will definitely be a repeat client of hers 😁”
About: I have loved animals my whole life and have had many pets; dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits, sheep and more. I thoroughly enjoy being with animals, loving and caring for them. Some of my first jobs were at animal clinics, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I was in FFA as a youth, where I raised and showed sheep, and where I also learned a lot. In my younger years I had many horses. I learned how to care for them, feeding, exercising, and cleaning up after them, etc! I learned responsibility, in addition to a deep love of animals. All of my experiences with my own animals, have made me a knowledgeable, responsible and compassionate animal care provider. I am currently semi-retired from working in the hospitality industry. I have plenty of time and I would thoroughly enjoy taking care of your beloved pets. I have an adorable mini schnauzer, Dudley, and a domestic short hair cat, Pete. I love them both so much and get so much enjoyment out of having and caring for them. We love cuddling, talking, and playing. I make sure they have the food, treats, exercise and attention they desire, and are well taken care of and will treat yours with the same love and respect that I show to my own pets.
“We had a fantastic experience with Alexis and her family. Bonnie loved spending the day playing with the kids and other dogs. Communication with Alexis was also great - we’d happily book again!”
“Johnna took such great care of Luna. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We received pictures and updates that kept us feeling confident in her care. Thank you Johnna!”
“Darlene was awesome. I couldn't be happier. Her home is set up super dog friendly. She kept me posted with photos and videos. Rocco had a great time meeting and playing with new friends. He cannot wait to go back.”
“Whitney is amazing! Stella came home a happy and exhausted puppy! It can be hard leaving Stella alone most of the day. I feel guilty that she will either be laying around or staring out the window waiting for us to get home. Whitney is very sweet and Stella really likes her. Stella went right to her and Stella can be hesitant if she doesn't feel comfortable. I definitely recommend Whitney!!!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over 5 years now for several different families. I am comfortable with walking, feeding, administering medications, and giving lots of love! I am extremely patient and happy to work with any number of needs. I keep owners updated with photos for some peace of mind throughout their time away. I’m currently on summer break before I start nursing school in the fall! Very open on weekdays and most weekends, I can stay in the home or do regular walks. I enjoy long walks and have done long stay dog sitting jobs in homes for multiple families. I can do walks in parks if pavement is too hot and bring lots of water!
About: I have watched our cousins sweet puppy and an older dog that was super low maintenance.. Dog let the puppy lay all over him, was quite adorable while staying at their home .

About: I have taken care of dogs on my own since I got my dog Mr. Buddy who is an Australian Shepard. I raised him from a puppy when I got him in Alaska when I was in the air force. I also watch my sister's dogs all the time, and I've decided to turn my love of dogs into a profession. I've learned a lot about dogs from great people like ceaser milon and the dog father, and many great people I've met along the way on my travels in the military. Your dogs will be well taken care of under my care. I have decided to do this as a full time gig. I want to be my own boss and work better with animals then I do people lol. I have delt with dogs of every age from my grandparents older German Shepard of 14 years old to my dog Mr. Buddy as a young 12 week old pup. I can assure that I will adhere to any safety practices that you want for your fur baby. I also have my 4 year old Aussie, Mr. Buddy, that does great with other dogs and socializing them. I've seen him help mentally troubled dogs many times. Off course I will not bring him if the client doesn't want him there. But once again I care assure that any dog will be safe under my care.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole and have house sat for friends, neighbors, and family. They trust me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with love and reliability! I just moved to a new town and actively looking for a new job. I love animals and feel this would be a great fit for me in the meantime! I would prioritize your dog’s safety on every walk-always using secure leashes, staying in pet-friendly areas, and keeping full attention on your dogs needs!
About: I've had pets all my life. Love and compassion are key! I am familiar with cats and dogs. I am experienced in administering meds if needed. I'm recently retired. My schedule is flexible. I can come to your home for drop in visits to walk, feed, and play. I can administer meds if needed. My pets are indoors mostly. They get potty breaks every few hours. Walks when weather permits. A pets safety and comfort is very important to me.
About: Served as a volunteer and foster parent for many rescued animals in Bali during the pandemic. My experience with animals is vast. Ive grown up with many different kinds of pets. Cats. Dogs. Birds. Reptiles. Rodents. Chickens. ducks. Donkeys. Horses. Pigs. Goats. You name it. I love all animals. I was raised in the foothills in the redwood forest. I’m a very down to earth and healthy lifestyle human who just loves fur babies of all types. I’m attentive and loving and playful with animals. I really need it as much as they do. I work early in the mornings off around 9am and then have most of the day to myself. It’s nice to have an excuse to take a dog on a walk or to lounge around with some kitty cuddles. Having animals in my home makes it feel more like a home. In my own home I will be in close proximity at all times and I will be home the entire time so I can sense when potty breaks or walks are needed. I really enjoy taking walks myself so it’s a perfect fit to have dogs over. Cats are similar with the exception of walks unless you want to leash train them or already have. I love to keep an eye on them so they don’t hurt themselves and I give lots of play time.
“Kendall was wonderful. She was very calm with my hyper puppy. I would definitely use her again and again and again. She was very professional and you could tell she loves dogs.”
About: Hi! My name is Sydnee. I’m a 23 year old married animal lover with extensive, hands on experience caring for animals of all sizes. I’ve owned horses since I was young and into adulthood, so I’m very comfortable with livestock as well as typical household pets. I currently have five cats and a dog of my own, and I’ve been actively caring for animals since I was about 13 years old. What started as helping neighbors, friends, and family quickly grew into a full pet sitting business. After several years, I took a break to explore other career paths and get married but my love for animal care never left. I’m excited to be jumping back into pet care and would love the opportunity to provide reliable, compassionate, and knowledgeable care for your animals. 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets in my care. I’m able to accommodate a variety of routines, including early mornings, late evenings, extended visits, and last-minute changes when needed. This flexibility allows me to spend quality, unrushed time with each pet and provide consistent, dependable care that fits seamlessly into their normal routine. A day with me is filled with attentive care, comfort, and plenty of love. Your pet’s routine comes first, meals are served on schedule, medications (if needed) are given carefully, and there’s lots of time for play, exercise, and enrichment tailored to their personality. Whether that means long walks, quiet cuddle time, interactive play, or simply relaxing nearby, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have had animals since I was a young girl and was always responsible for caring for them in any way the family needed. I helped watch friends animals as well.

I only pick up dental hygiene shifts as needed as I have been in the dental field 32 years. We have a a nice chunk of land with a fence and one dog to play with your furbaby her name is Shadow and she is so sweet and old, but still has energy for fun. We have a pond to wade in as well which is Shadows favorite thing to do. We are always keeping an eye on all of our animals and make sure they are safe and always have what they need. We also have 4 indoor kitties but they usually hide when company is around.

About: Hi! I’m Tarron — lifelong animal lover, rescue director, and experienced handler with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs and many other animals including cats, ducks, goats, bunnies. I’m the Executive Director of a nonprofit animal rescue and have extensive experience with: * rescue and anxious dogs * senior dogs * puppies * medication administration * decompression and slow introductions * leash handling and structured walks * dogs recovering from surgery/injury * reactive or fearful dogs I understand that every dog is different and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and making dogs feel comfortable and secure. Because I have animals of my own and run a rescue, I currently focus on: * drop-in visits * dog walking * medication visits * structured enrichment walks * pet transport/help with vet visits I’m especially comfortable with dogs that may need a little extra understanding or experience beyond a typical pet sitter/walker. Reliable, communicative, calm, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I currently work as a program manger for adults with special needs, and manage a small team of individuals. Mornings and evening are best. As well as Tuesdays, and weekends. I do not provide pet care in my own home at this time, but I will gladly come to yours and spend time with your fur babies!
About: My name is Kevin. I am in my early thirties. Some things I enjoy are frisbee, rock climbing, & cooking/baking. To be a part of the community intentionally and to build purposeful relationships is my calling. I have had animal family members (dogs/cats/rats/birds) since I was a child; I have taken care of them all plus other animals such as horses, chickens, goats, and pigs. I registered myself on Rover to combine my love for animals with the opportunity for a second income. Although, I see Rover as more than a job; it opens up a door to serving and getting to know my community. Let’s set up a “meet & greet” and get to know each other far better than 125 characters could ever do justice. Aloha! While I will do my best to keep my Rover calendar up-to-date, please message me for my latest schedule. I look forward to hearing from you! In all services, I focus on meeting and exceeding my clients expectations. I desire to be present with your pup(s) and/or pets as much as possible. I also provide dog walks and drop-in visits to keep your pup feeling safe and satisfied.
About: Your pups new bestie! I have had animals most of my life growing up since childhood and was raised with how to properly care for them. I also have a dog that I love so much! I thoroughly enjoy walks, runs, hikes, and playing with him. I am a big dog person! I currently work part time and am home most of the time. I’m usually home a lot as most of my work can be done from home. The flexibility is very nice and works perfectly with having dogs in our home! We currently have our own dog and so caring for yours will fit naturally into the flow we already have going! I have a fenced yard, where my pup and yours can play as much as they want! We have trails and parks near by for walks and runs, if you’d like for your pup to have exercise in those ways as well.

“Absolutely the BEST dog sitter for our 6 month old Kota. The photos and videos and updates daily made being apart while we were on vacation much more enjoyable. This was Kota’s first time away from us and I felt a bit guilty making him come home! Michelle made sure he had fun and got lots of socializing with other pups she was watching. Swimming in the kiddie pool was definitely a highlight! So much playtime meant afternoon naps where he snored. We will definitely be checking to make sure Michelle can welcome Kota back before we book our next vacation.”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“Thank you to Michelle and David for watching Clover for the weekend. Clover got to sleep on a bed (instead of in her crate‐ yes, it was okayed!) and had a doggy friend her age to run around with. I think she enjoyed herself!”
“Elizabeth boarded our 2 dogs (- Bulldog and a high energy young Cattle dog) for 7 days while we were on vacation. Excellent communication! I loved seeing the daily pictures of them and knowing they were in great hands while we were away. Our dogs are on day 2 of sleeping after boarding. ?. We will definitely request Elizabeth for upcoming/future stays.”
“Sharon and Albert were great! They were very friendly and communicative. Coordinating with them was very easy, and I appreciated how many photos and updates they sent. Their yard has been "doggified" and appeared to be a nice place for the dogs to hang out. They've been taking care of dogs for a while and know what they're doing. Thanks so much for taking care of Kitty!”
“What a wonderful sitter! The previous reviews were spot on. My dog was extremely well taken care of and came home happier for her experience. The photos that I received of her playful romping were breathtaking and truly reassuring. He was very flexible and hospitable, and I'll never take my dog to a kennel again. Will be using Grant in the future! Highly recommended.”
“Irina is experienced. She had a plan ready for acclimating my dogs to their new environment and handled having multiple dogs together well. She was communicative and flexible.”
“I woulds like this to remain a well kept secret to guarantee I would always be able to book with Linda S but that would be very selfish. Linda and her husband are naturals, very relaxed and calm in their interaction with the dogs. The other dogs that were there when I dropped Rosie off were content and happy and it was the same, Rosie included, when I picked her up 3 days later. The property is beautiful and dogs are free to explore and play. Rosie didn't go to a boarding kennel, she had a doggie spa vacation!”
“Jennifer replied so quickly for a last minute need to board my dog oppie! Oppie loved being there and I got updates daily on how he’s doing. Highly recommend Jennifer and her daughters were so cute with Oppie.”
“Tale'A is professional, knowledegable and friendly. She and her family welcomed our dog into their home. He was well cared for during his stay. We will deffinately go back again.”
“Amanda was reliable front start to finish. She was commutative throughout our arranged time. Also sent pictures random throughout the day. Our lincoln seemed at home with their littles. 😀 I hope to be able to use her in near future.”
“Macey takes such great care of my pup, Genji. Macey and her family treat my dog as if he were theirs. Macey also has well-socialized dogs of her own that also love and take care of Genji. This includes her Husky who is about 30xs bigger than Genji. I’ve used Macey twice now and will continue to do so.”
“Derek and his family were great with Bailey! She came home happy and clean, we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. We were most impressed that she ate all her dinner and slept well at night (we thought she would be upset and refuse to do so) but it was just so comfortable at Derek's place. He gave regular updates and responded very quickly if I had any questions. 10/10 recommended. We will definitely use their services again in the future!”
“Sarswati took excellent care of my large dog. I was given updates and photos for reassurance that he was having a good time. Definitely recommend this sitter. Thanks so much for caring for my pup!”
“Sandra took amazing care of our golden retriever. She has a perfect set up for doggie care. She is caring and attentive. I highly recommend her and will definitely leave our dog with her again when we go out of town.”
“She watched our dog(mini poodle) while we were on vacation for a week. She did not have any other dogs at the home while our dog was there, and this was important. She sent us some pictures and text during our vacation. Grateful to have her watch our dog.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Meghan and Peter! To say I was nervous about leaving my dog for a week is an understatement. 🫣 After talking with Meghan for 5 minutes, I was completely comfortable and knew this was the right place for Clover. She is so kind, loving, and gentle. Her communication was detailed and I received pictures, updates, and reassurances. ❤️ Clover was SO happy to have 3 doggie friends to run and sniff with! (She honestly seems a little bored now at home! 😆) Peter was very generous in accommodating our pick up time, which really was above and beyond. Needless to say, I would not hesitate to book with them again. Thank you! ☺️”
