“Jess and Max take the best care of Luna! She loves her time with them and always comes back happy and well cared for. They share the sweetest photos and have stellar communication so we always feel at ease while she is away!”
“Thank you Rosario and Ryan for another wonderful stay🥰 It was Bisco’s first overnight stay with them, and she sometimes doesn’t eat because she can get a little nervous/anxious at a stranger’s house, but she ate her meal with them just fine. Thank you for providing a clean, warm, comfortable, and safe space for Bisco🙏🏻 Will book again and highly recommend for other fur parents!”
“We are so grateful that we found Lucero. She gave wonderful care to our dog. It was clear from the updates and videos that he was loved, comfortable and well cared while we were away. We could tell that our dog was happy and felt at home with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving and caring dog sitter.”
“Nicole was amazing! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was incredibly flexible when my travel plans unexpectedly changed. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Brittany always takes such good care of Butter! The old guy has a lovely time hanging w her and her sweet pup. And she’s v responsive and kind. Highly recommend.”
“Our dog Clementine had an amazing time staying with Carmen and her dog Cathy for six nights. Carmen’s genuine love and attentiveness toward dogs really stood out—she cared for Clementine as if she were her own. I truly appreciated the daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Clementine was happy and well cared for. Carmen even went the extra mile by introducing her to fun puzzles and healthy treats. It was clear Clementine felt right at home, and I’m sure she’d be more than happy to stay with Carmen again.”
“I am thankful Sheila was available on short notice. She doesn’t live far from me. She was very patient with my shy and anxious Havanese boy. I’m happy he was allowed to roam free and sit on furniture just like at home. Although my dog may have been nervous to eat, Sheila did her best to accommodate Paxson. I liked that she had other dogs and a cat. I think this helps Paxson get comfortable and learn the ropes. I appreciate Sheila and her daughter Rhonika for taking great care of Paxson. I will look for her again on the future.”
“Melanie was AMAZING! I am so happy to have found her. It’s always a little unsettling leaving your dog behind on vacation, but knowing she was with Melanie (and basically on vacation herself!) put us at so much ease. Zoe had so many great adventures during her 1-week stay, from pack walks in the hills to the beach and beyond. Melanie and her family treated Zoe like a member of their family, which made us so happy. Melanie was super communicative and sent photos of their adventures daily. We’ll definitely be taking Zoe back to Melanie next time we need someone to look after her!”
“This is my first time using Rover, and our first experience having our dog being taken care of by another. It was crucial for us to find a dog caretaker for him, and Alicia's profile page stood out to me the most. She and her kids took care of Rocky as if he was their own and that means alot to us. Alicia kept us updated on Rockys daily activities and snuggles. I am so happy and blessed to have found her on Rover. If there is any other future needs, we definitely have Rocky stay with her.”
“Shiyibin took excellent care of our young kitty while we were in transition and moving. She was so careful with her needs and really understands cats so well. We were so incredibly grateful for her love and care of our girl during this difficult time for us.”
“Sean and his fam were great! We got daily updates on Nina and never had to worry about her while we were out of town. Great communication and you can tell Sean, his wife, and his daughter are all true dog lovers. We’d recommend them and book with them again.”
“Travis did a fantastic job watching our dog Harper over Thanksgiving week. He consistently checked in and sent updates on how she was doing, accompanied with pictures of their adventures throughout the day. We’d recommend Travis to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Audrey was a wonderful sitter for my little chihuahua mix. She reliably sent me updates about how he was adjusting to the new situation — he’s a really anxious and territorial dog — and seemed really adept at handling even a dog as difficult as mine. She was also available for a sudden appointment including a meet and greet within one day of contacting her.”
“We are so grateful to have found Jeanne to care for our dog, Luglio. From the very beginning, she was warm, responsive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease while we were away, sending regular updates and the sweetest photos that showed just how happy and relaxed Luglio was in her care. Jeanne went above and beyond to make sure Luglio felt at home, giving him plenty of love, walks, and attention. It was obvious she treated him like one of her own. He came back to us happy, calm, and well cared for—exactly what every dog parent hopes for. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jeanne again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving dog sitter!”
“Highly recommend Alicia and James to take care of your pup while you're away. They're extremely responsive and provided a calm, welcoming environment for our dog. They sent a ton of photos which I really appreciated, and treated Luna like their own. So grateful for their help and definitely would come back again!”
About: Dogs have been my heart since I was 10 years old — and that love has only grown deeper with every cuddle. I am not just a dog lover; I am the kind of person who named their production company after their dog. That is how serious this is. I share my home with two rescue pups — a sweet deer chihuahua and a gentle little terrier mix — both 8.5 lbs of pure calm energy. They set the tone in our space: relaxed, loved, and completely at ease. Any dog who visits steps into that same warmth. Our apartment is 1,300 square feet with a private side yard, so there is always room to stretch out, sniff around, or simply soak up some fresh air together. I work from home full-time, which means your dog is never left waiting — I am here, present, and happy to take them out for walks throughout the day as often as they like. I treat every dog I care for the way I treat my own: with patience, attention, and a whole lot of love. Your pup will be in good hands — and honestly, probably a little spoiled. As a work-from-home writer, dogs are woven into every part of my day — and honestly, they make it better. My own two rescues get three walks daily plus two additional pee breaks, and any dog in my care gets the same rhythm. Stepping away from the screen for a walk isn't a disruption — it's the best part of my routine. I'm always home, always available, and never watching the clock. Your dog will be comfortable, safe, and genuinely loved here. Our home gets beautiful natural light, and our tree-lined neighborhood is calm and walkable — perfect for a curious nose. Sleepovers are absolutely welcome; this is a real home, not a facility. We have a small balcony and side yard if they love to sun! I'm also experienced with medication administration — my own dog Charley is 16 and keeps me well-practiced — so if your pup has a health routine, it's in good hands. We're also pee-pad friendly for senior dogs or those who need that option. What I can promise: your dog won't spend the day in a crate waiting for attention. They'll spend it with me.
“I had the best experience with Brittany! I was really nervous to leave my dog for so many days because it was his first time being boarded, but Brittany made the whole thing so seamless. Her communication was great and she sent plenty of pictures. She did great with giving my dog his daily meds and gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. I Highly recommend!!❤️”

“Miho took excellent care of my two cats while I was out of town for the holiday. Exceptional communication and sent daily pictures of my girls. Above and beyond- highly recommend!”
“Fang was amazing over the holidays, accepting our last-minute request to drop in on our son’s cat every other day. We then kept extending her care as son extended his stay on east coast. Will definitely hire again and would recommend Fang to anyone looking for sincere care, especially with cats!”
About: Cat Care 🐱 Cats deserve just as much attention and companionship as dogs! I’m happy to provide drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, litter box care, medication or special instructions when appropriate, playtime, brushing, and plenty of affection—or simply quiet company for a more independent cat. I’ll follow your cat’s normal routine and respect their personality. If your cat is shy, I won’t force interaction; if they’re social and playful, I’m happy to spend extra time entertaining them. During every visit, I’ll also keep an eye out for anything unusual, such as changes in appetite, litter box habits, behavior, or general condition, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice something that concerns me.
About: I am a dog lover and I have grown up with dogs my entire 28 years of being alive! I grew up with a pitbull and a boxer during my childhood and now I currently have a chug and a chihuahua mix. I’m the go-to dog sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors! I have experience caring for dogs as small as 5 lbs and dogs over 100 lbs. I work from home full-time and can give your pup all the attention they deserve. Bathroom breaks are every 2 to 4 hours and can be more often if needed. I live in an apartment and allow dogs on my bed as well as the couch. I have plenty of blankets and pillows to make them feel at home.
“Stephanie watched our cat Leo for a weekend and our experience with her was everything you could hope for! She offered to come by to do a meet and greet and tour our home, which was very kind and helpful to the experience. She followed all of our care instructions and kept our home very tidy. Stephanie is overall very conscientious, professional and communicative!! would absolutely book with her again!”
“Liz was a great sitter for us and took wonderful care of Rocky and Her Babes while we were away. She was thoughtful, communicated any needs and gave them plenty of play time. She knew exactly how to handle the little menaces. 🖤”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, large mammals, and reptiles since I was 10 years old. I'm comfortable cats of all ages, and I have a lot of experience with rescue cats, meds, etc.
“Koko was so trustworthy and kind! She was prompt and communicative (we really appreciated her notes and pictures at every visit). Came through for us at the last minute during the holidays and took fantastic care of our elderly cat who needed some medicine added to her food and a little cuddle time daily. Greatly appreciated Koko!”
“Hannah was amazing! She is a wonderful person and through the pictures that were sent during her visits with my cat, I could tell he felt comfortable in her presence! I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
“Carleigh was the perfect cat sitter! Followed all instructions and was incredibly kind. This was my first time having a drop in sitter, so I was very nervous but Carleigh has washed those worries away! My cats were so quick to warm up to her and my shy cat who I did not expect to even come out of hiding was obsessed with her! 10/10 I highly recommend Carleigh and will most definitely rebook in the future ?”
“Juliana was amazing with our cats! She played with our two kittens and took amazing photos! She did a great job following all of our pet instructions and gave updates after each visit. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Angela took great care of our two cats with a more unique diet. Very detailed and informative updates at every check in, and really well done photos that we even saved. Very punctual to the times agreed upon, and went above and beyond with cleaning up vomit and tidying the cat supplies. We will definitely book again!”
“Rhoda took great care of our three cats, including our old man cat who requires medication and sometimes misses the litter box. First time we’ve ever used a pet sitting app and it was a great experience. Rhoda was very communicative and sent pictures each day. She was also patient with us as nervous first time users- we sent videos and instructions and she acknowledged them all. Thanks Rhoda!”

“Nicole took great care of our puppy. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in her care, and it was clear our puppy felt comfortable with her too. We had such peace of mind knowing our dog was with Nicole and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Yvette was absolutely amazing with Bruce Lee and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly accommodating, quick to respond, and consistently kept me updated with daily pictures and messages. You can immediately tell how much she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. One of my favorite parts was seeing how well Bruce bonded with her sweet dog, Roco. The two of them became best friends so quickly, and it made me so happy seeing them play together, relax side by side, and go on walks together. Yvette also gave Bruce lots of love and attention, including belly rubs and plenty of affection, which made him feel completely at home. I truly could not have asked for a better dog sitter. Every picture she sent showed Bruce looking happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Yvette to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, communicative, and attentive with their pets. Bruce already misses his new best friend Roco!”

“Absolutely incredible to work with! Flexible and so kind. We could tell that our baby truly enjoyed spending the evening at their home. So grateful they were able to help us in a pinch. Hope to work with Vincent and Eve in the future when we go to other shows at the Forum or SoFi.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since 2008, and they’ve been a huge part of my life ever since. I’ve loved raising two dogs and two cats of my own, and as a long-time Rover user myself, I know exactly what it’s like to care deeply about who is watching your pets. One of the most rewarding experiences has been fostering senior pets who needed a little extra patience, comfort, and care. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a playful adult, or a sweet senior, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, sticking to medication or care routines, or simply providing companionship, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and personality to help them feel at home and give you peace of mind. I work remotely (except on Mondays from 9–2 PM), which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, medication, or just some extra companionship, I’m able to incorporate their routine into my workday and ensure they receive plenty of attention and care. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, preferences, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.
“We are glad we left our cat with Shiyibin. Shiyibin is very kind, took care of our cat well, and kept up posted frequently with updates, photo, and a video over the 12 hour period. She let my cat have some private space away from her cats since this is our first time. Tangy seemed to be doing well and we would definitely book her again.”
“Perry was great with Remi! She seemed really comfortable with him and enjoyed having company all day, especially with his dog Mookie around. Remi is always happy to be dropped off and comes home relaxed!”
“I was a worried mom dropping her dog off for the first time at daycare, but Stanley seemed to acclimate pretty well to his new experience! I was comfortable w/Christina & Martin right away. You can tell that they know what they’re doing and will take great care of your babies! Thanks for doing what you do!”
“I’m beyond lucky to have found Rachel for doggie daycare. My pup doesn’t warm up easy to new people (or dogs) but after 2 days he was jumping out of the car to go to day care. Rachel’s always prompt in answering and flexible with last minute schedule changes.”
About: Hi, I’m Pam! I only board one dog at a time, so your pup and my own dog, Butter, will be the only two dogs in the home during your stay — no crowding, no competing for attention, just real companionship. Butter is an 8 lb, 3-year-old Pomeranian who’s super friendly and loves having a playmate, so your dog gets a built-in buddy from day one. I work from home, so your dog isn’t just getting bookend walks — I’m checking in and giving attention throughout the entire day. And thanks to years spent caring for my chiweenie, Cannoli, who I raised to age 17, I’m comfortable handling medication and the extra care senior or medically-involved dogs sometimes need — not just the basics. At a Glance • Capacity: 1 guest at a time (just your dog + Butter) • Size limit: 25 lbs and under • Services: Boarding (overnight) and Day Care (daytime only) • Hours: 7am–9pm drop-off/pick-up (extended stays past the agreed window may incur an additional charge) • Home: 2-bedroom house, fully fenced yard, AC kept at a steady 72-74° • Household: smoke-free, alcohol-free, kid- and family-friendly Field Trip Add-On Beyond our regular neighborhood walks, I offer occasional field trips — a nearby dog park, a hike at Kenneth Hahn, or a beach outing. Available as an add-on for an extra fee (not guaranteed every stay, but something I genuinely enjoy when the schedule allows). Photos included! I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed around a 9-to-5. • Check-ins and attention throughout the day, not just bookend walks • Free play in the fenced yard between walks • Walks at 8am, lunchtime, and 4pm, plus an evening potty break around 8pm • Meals served in a designated eating area, separate from the play space • Playtime with Butter throughout the day • Medications given exactly as directed, on schedule • Dogs relax and sleep in our open living/dining space, each with their own dog bed • Photo and video updates every stay My home is set up to keep things calm, clean, and safe for your dog. • Fully fenced yard for secure off-leash play • Air conditioned, kept in the 72–75° range year-round • Smoke-free and alcohol-free household • Only one guest at a time — just your dog and my own dog, Butter • Meals served in a designated eating area • Hands-on medication and senior-dog care experience, from raising my chiweenie Cannoli to age 17
“Salad was very sweet and responsive. She was able to take my pup last minute and was very timely in coming out for his pickup and dropoff. He was only there 7 hours but he got 2 walks appropriately:)”
“Today was Emily’s first day with our very energetic and little puppy Maximo who is only 3 months old. She was hands down so incredible. She was with him all day and did so many activities with him and sent us endless videos and pix. I immediately felt beyond comfortable leaving our Maximo with her and look forward to upcoming visits. She is beyond a 5 star rating. Thx a million. She’s the best”
“Jeanne saved me I was being scammed by ppl pretending to be my bank I was able to call bank and stop any activity before they took anything Thank you Jeanne!!! 🙏💖😇”
“Fran is just the best with my little Luna, I love the pictures and I know she’s in a safe and joyful place having the best day ever! Their home is a perfect Haven for any pup and I’m so glad each time I drop off my dog with Fran knowing she is well taken care of, played with, cuddled with and loved dearly!”
“Pepper had a great time with Chelsi and her family! He especially loved playing with Leo, who is such a sweet boy. Chelsi is also very communicative, we loved all the photos and videos she sent during Pepper’s stay.”
“Jane was great as always. Our pup had extra energy before we dropped him off and she got him the exercise he needed. We always feel confident he’ll be well cared for when we leave him with Jane.”

“Ray has been such a great walker for my girl Stella. She’s very weary of people and protective. She warmed to Ray quickly and he’s been a life saver for us! He takes her on longer walks than booked sometimes and goes above and beyond to make sure she’s safe. Ray is awesome!”
About: I currently care for my three dogs. My experiences includes raising and caring for newborn puppies, overnight dog sitting, administering oral medications, and caring for senior or recovering dogs. I understand that every dog has different routines and personalities, so I take the time to make each pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra rubs and cuddles, I acknowledge each and every one of those needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well beings. I'm currently available through the middle of September and have a flexible schedule for walks, drop in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine since I have three dogs of my own. My days naturally revolve around feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and making sure each dog receives the attention they need. I'm happy to accommodate your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort in your home are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any special care requests. I'm experienced caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels. Whether your dog wants to play, go on walks, relax nearby while I work, or simply receive extra affection and reassurance, I'll provide patient, attentive care while keeping a close on your pup.
About: Hi, I’m Amy! (Rover makes me use my government name 🤷♀️) I have two rescue pups: Abby (5-year-old Formosan mountain dog, 35 lbs) and Ollie (2-year-old Goldendoodle, 65 lbs). I also volunteer for a dog rescue - check out Fetchin Retrievers Rescue! My pups are polar opposites: Abby is a skittish homebody, and Ollie is an energetic goofball. I can do everything from Abby-style chill cuddle sessions to Ollie-style crazy zoomies! My pups are both rescues with an unfortunate past, and through caring for them and my volunteer work, I’m experienced in reading dogs’ body languages to take things at their pace, curbing unwanted behaviors, and training by positive reinforcement.
“Lauren has been the most consistent, professional, and caring dog walker - she's a GEM and we are so grateful to have had her caring for our 2 dogs - she is on time, she's thoughtful when she notices something going on with one of them and tells us, she communicates changes when needed and our dogs love her!!”
“Kellin visits our pup on an ongoing basis during the week while we’re at work and we cannot recommend her enough! Our pup is elderly and requires specialized care, including support getting into and out of a wheelchair during walks and mealtime, unique food preparations, and more - all of which Kellin does graciously and with the same level of love and attention that we would. We’re so thankful to have her support and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Shiyibin is fantastic! Orion absolutely loves her and gets very excited when he sees her! She’s super communicative and has been flexible when he’s had bouts of separation anxiety and needed to shift his walks as a result.”
“Anne was so great - we were on a trip for a few days and left our Golden Retriever with my wife’s parents and Anne was able to walk him several times and be flexible with some of the arrangements. Highly recommend!”
“Kristin was fantastic! Our original sitter cancelled last minute and Kristin saved the day! She's the first person who's come into our house that our dog hasn't immediately starting barking at. My wife marveled at her "Disney princess energy" as the animals gravitated towards her immediately. She communicated with us well and sent great pictures. We had a wonderful experience with Kristin and would highly recommend.”
“Rachel is a gem of a sitter and walker on Rover! She sends detailed updates and amazing quality glamour shots photos (how does she take such great photos?!!). She’s super reliable, easy to coordinate with and always on time. Highly highly recommend!”
“Koko was AMAZING!!! My pup absolutely loved her, she sent me updates constantly (which really helped my dog mom anxiety!) and spent time with my girl giving her extra loves and cookies after their walks! I highly recommend :)”
“Left our older dog with Brie over the long weekend and he was well taken care of. Our dog is a bit difficult (and we sort of treat him like he's our baby) and she was extremely patient with him and she had a good handle on him and their schedule together. ”
“Patrick was the best! He agreed to run my dog not just walk him for an hour every day! It was worth every penny when I saw how happy and tired my dog was when they’d get back from a run! My dog Chunk loved Patrick and would sit watching the door waiting to see him! Patrick is awesome and I will use him every time I come to LA! U need to hire this man and u will be very happy with his work!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I got my first dog when I was 9 years old. In college, I was responsible for taking care of my roommates dog, which included daily walks, feeding, and baths. After graduating, I volunteered at my local animal shelter as a dog walker and would occasionally foster a dog as well. I have my own little pup, Roo, who is a 1 year old Aussiedoodle who has my heart. Animals bring so much joy and love into our lives and deserve to be looked after with love and care. I am currently working full time in a remote position. My work schedule is very flexible, so I can give your pet the attention they need. My apartment has a small yard that we use to let our dog lounge when we are relaxing at home. We are in a great area, and frequently walk our dog along the bike path. As for taking care of your pet in your own home, I am big on respecting other peoples’ space and am a very clean and organized person.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, large mammals, and reptiles since I was 10 years old. I'm comfortable with animals of all ages, and I have experience with rescue animals, meds, etc. I work from home, so my schedule can easily be adjuster to fit the needs of your pets! I have open availability throughout the weekdays, and with proper notice, I am able to accommodate weekend requests as well. My animals are my family! I care for my pets by making sure their needs are always met, be it food, water, exercise, and most importantly, love and attention. My dog has been with me for 12 years, and he's my best friend, so I make sure he gets regular walks, playtime, and cuddles. My cats range in age, so their care looks a little different between each one, but they all receive plenty of play, enrichment, and affection. Consistency, patience, and love are key!
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and neighbors pets, mainly cats but willing to take care of dogs as well! Not used to dogs as much as cats so I will have to learn but i’m always willing to learn anything new! I’m currently a student with classes 4 times a week (mon-thurs), with some extra curricular activities and a part time job. typically I can drop by in the mornings to around afternoon all week long. I live at an apartment with other family members, so i’d like to visit the clients homes and take care of their babies :) I always make sure my clients get the most detailed updates about their babies and the best pictures while they’re away to feel reassured.

“We are so grateful that we found Lucero. She gave wonderful care to our dog. It was clear from the updates and videos that he was loved, comfortable and well cared while we were away. We could tell that our dog was happy and felt at home with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving and caring dog sitter.”
“Melanie was AMAZING! I am so happy to have found her. It’s always a little unsettling leaving your dog behind on vacation, but knowing she was with Melanie (and basically on vacation herself!) put us at so much ease. Zoe had so many great adventures during her 1-week stay, from pack walks in the hills to the beach and beyond. Melanie and her family treated Zoe like a member of their family, which made us so happy. Melanie was super communicative and sent photos of their adventures daily. We’ll definitely be taking Zoe back to Melanie next time we need someone to look after her!”
“This is my first time using Rover, and our first experience having our dog being taken care of by another. It was crucial for us to find a dog caretaker for him, and Alicia's profile page stood out to me the most. She and her kids took care of Rocky as if he was their own and that means alot to us. Alicia kept us updated on Rockys daily activities and snuggles. I am so happy and blessed to have found her on Rover. If there is any other future needs, we definitely have Rocky stay with her.”
“Shiyibin took excellent care of our young kitty while we were in transition and moving. She was so careful with her needs and really understands cats so well. We were so incredibly grateful for her love and care of our girl during this difficult time for us.”
“Sean and his fam were great! We got daily updates on Nina and never had to worry about her while we were out of town. Great communication and you can tell Sean, his wife, and his daughter are all true dog lovers. We’d recommend them and book with them again.”
“Travis did a fantastic job watching our dog Harper over Thanksgiving week. He consistently checked in and sent updates on how she was doing, accompanied with pictures of their adventures throughout the day. We’d recommend Travis to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“I had the best experience with Brittany! I was really nervous to leave my dog for so many days because it was his first time being boarded, but Brittany made the whole thing so seamless. Her communication was great and she sent plenty of pictures. She did great with giving my dog his daily meds and gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. I Highly recommend!!❤️”
“Ryan is absolutely amazing with Orion. He really understands my dog’s needs and the one-on-one attention makes such a difference. We’ve hired him multiple times now, and every experience has been great. Orion is always happy, well cared for, and comfortable with him. Ryan is reliable, attentive, and genuinely great with dogs — hands down the best sitter we’ve had.”
“Claudine was wonderful. I was really anxious about leaving our 1.5-year-old dog with someone for the first time — and for a full two weeks — but Claudine put me at ease right away. She consistently sent photos, videos, and updates, which made our vacation so much more relaxing knowing our pup was in such good hands. We’re also very grateful for the level of care she provided at such a fair cost. Other sitters we looked at (even those with backyards) had higher rates, and as a bonus, our pup got to sleep on the bed and couch. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Claudine again and highly recommend her. 🐾”
“Bridgette is amazing!! So glad we met her; she took care of my dog who just had surgery and has separation issues for three days… Bridgette was able to get him to settle down, administer medication, and provide many walks, play time, and snuggles on the bed. She also provided many photos and videos along with updates on how he was doing. I could not ask for a better experience- he even gave her a kiss goodbye! We will definitely be booking with Bridgette again sometime. Thank you again!”
“As always, Ebony took great care of my senior pup and treats him just like family. She sends me pictures and updates me whenever he has any senior moments! I'll always refer Ebony especially if you have a pup who needs extra tender love and care!”
“Conor is the best sitter! This was our first time leaving Kj with someone else and we were super nervous but after only a few hours I knew he was in great hands. Conor sent us plenty of updates and pictures and made sure Kj had everything he needed. Plus he got to spend most of his time playing with Zoey. We will definitely use Conor again for future stays.”
“Daria was amazing! Dogs looked happy and comfortable. She sent many pictures which was really comforting. She made sure to exercise them and keep them happy. Would definitely recommend.”
“I was amazed with Daniela! She is the most easy going person you could ever find! She was very attentive with Sprinkle, and accommodated us last minute with no problem, and also was flexible with pick up time and drop off time. She sent me pictures and kept me updated every single day with Sprinkle, took her on long walks and Sprinkle looked relaxed and as if she had a great time! It was an absolute pleasure to work with her!”
“Nadia is very caring and took great care of Milo. She understands dogs' needs. She took him to the park and walked him to exercise him daily. Milo had a lot of anxiety when I dropped him off and I told her that before hand. She assured me not to worry. She took him for a walk right away and calmed him down. She sent multiple updates daily with pics and short videos. She went the extra mile to make me feel comfortable also by taking the time to meet and let Milo sniff around in her very nice place. She even walked with me and Milo before boarding. I felt very safe and comfortable with Nadia and will definitely use her services in the future! Thank you Nadia!”
“3rd time booking with Gabrielle! She keeps us updated daily with photos and has great communication. Pick up and drop off are always smooth. Loki is excited everytime he gets to stay with her! Will definitley keep booking with Gabrielle!”
“Roxy had a great stay with Amira! She was so close and cared for. Amira had great communication, and Roxy was pampered and in excellent hands, I know we will rebook!”
