“Achara was absolutely amazing! She did such a great job communicating how Sammy was doing throughout the day sent pictures just overall a really great experience and I absolutely use her again.”

“We hit the jackpot with Brandee! She is extremely warm and generous, and it is very obvious that she loves dogs very much! Our girls had a wonderful time, and they ran around the backyard so much that they were all tuckered out when they got home. We will use her again without hesitation.”


“Grateful to find someone that my dog and I were willing to trust. My dog is so happy with Michael!! She definitely makes her self at home at Michael’s. I know she gets her walks and plenty of play time with her sitter. Micheal is great at sending me updates on how my dog is doing as well as photos which I love! We are great full to find someone that works with my dog so well and can give her that one on one time which she needs.”

“My little dogs have always stayed with family or a trusted neighborhood sitter, but when no one was available for an overnight, we were happy to find Bari. My pups were happy with the combo of activities (walks, a dog park visit) and relaxing on Bari’s couch. My 10 year old mini schnauzer has a bit of separation anxiety, but she, as well as my schnoodle, had no problem making themselves at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to have them stay with Bari again.”

“Patty is amazing. Very kind. Very thoughtful. And, truly loves dogs. She treated our pup with the highest of care and took excellent care of her. She’s responsive and extremely accommodating. We had some travel issues and she was very helpful and flexible. Can’t say enough about her. Looking forward to Kala staying with her again soon.”

“Thank you Reginay for caring for Queenie. She had a great time and I knew she was in the best hands. Lots of walks and play time. Pics and prompt communication. Appreciate it!”
“Martha was awesome! Very attentive and caring. Kept in contact to let me know how Angel was adjusting. And sent pictures which reassured me that she is definitely an animal lover 🩷🩷🩷”

About: I have owned dogs most of my life from a Doberman pinscher to a chowchow to an Australian cattle dog and a couple cats throughout my life. I love animals! I no longer have our latest family Australian cattle dog who was with us for 17 years and miss being around animals. I am an independent contractor in real estate so I can set my own hours. I’m very flexible! I love to get out and walk a lot for exercise for myself as well! I give them lots of love and attention that they need. Play with them and make sure they’re happy, exercised, and well fed at their eating time
“Kazue is everything you can ever ask for in a dog sitter. Very quick communication. Sends photos of my dog every morning, midday, and evening. She even folded my dog’s blanket and washed his bowls prior to me picking up my dog. She is absolutely wonderful!”

“My doggy and cat love Joel. They know they will be taken care and get lots of attention and love. They are my babies and it makes it so much easier to know they are happy even when I am gone. Thanks Joel!!”

“Grisel was AMAZING!! She was communicative and sent many photos of Lillie to me! They have a wonderful large yard where all the dogs could hangout and play, and she even took Lillie for a walk in the evening to help with her bowels. I felt comfortable leaving Lillie in Griselda’s care and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Thank you SO much Hana! Hana is one of the best dog-sitters on Rover. She was very quick to communicate, sent plenty of updates/photos/videos, walked my puppy frequently, and made him feel loved and at home! My puppy can be standoff-ish to people but he was cuddling with Hana in no time!”

“Katherine and Brulee welcomed our dog Moxie with open arms. I was glad to leave my dog with an experienced dog owner and their well behaved dog. Katherine did a great job meeting Moxie's needs with the added benefit of having a spacious backyard. Moxie was in good hands and we appreciate the help. Will definitely book again!”

“My pup received wonderful love and care from Marie & James. I received photos and videos at least twice a day. Will trust them again with my doggy when we travel.”


“Demetra and her husband were the BEST dog sitters. Our anxious dog fell in love with them and their two dogs. They were excellent at communication and sent daily updates with photos and video. We will definitely be asking them to pet-sit again and I enthusiastically recommend them.”

About: I have experience with many different types of animals. I have cats, dogs, a snake, a lizard, snails, and fish. I also lived on a farm and have experience with farm animals. I am good at training dogs and have experience with animal's medication management. My dog has an anxiety disorder, and one of my cats had an intense medical scare which required medication three times a day. Work to provide the best for all my animals, and I'll work to provide the best for yours as well. I currently work part-time during the days. There is never a time where my house is unsupervised for more than a few hours at a time to go out and eat or run errands. With my dogs, I typically crate them when I leave to prevent them from causing problems like digging in the trash, but that is up to your discretion for your animal. I live in a house in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs frequently run around in. I have a small inflatable pool for the animals to play in during the heat. I will take care to attend to each animal's individualized needs, so if your dogs needs to be crated at certain times or has specific triggers please let me know.
“Matt & his wife exceeded my expectations! This was my first time using a dog sitter & I was a little nervous initially because my dogs are my furry babies but I could tell as soon as I met these two, there was nothing to worry about. Matt kept me updated everyday with pics/videos and telling me about their day. He made sure they stayed on the same diet & eating schedule as I had them on. With every picture he sent, I could tell that they were having a blast. If you want assurance that your dog(s) will be well cared for, then don’t hesitate & book with Matt. He will be my go to for all of our dog sitting sessions for now on. Thank you so much again, Matt!”

About: I have a 9 year old cat of my own, adopted her when she was a kitten! Throughout the years I have also taken care of the family pets (two cats and one dog). I love going for walks and I would often have our family dog tag along. I have experience in giving oral medication to cats + following a medication/feeding schedule. I’m currently working full time, Monday-Friday, I’m available to walk and care for pets during my work breaks, evenings during the week, or any time during the weekend. I provide a loving environment to any animal I come across. I want them to feel safe and comfortable enough to trust that they know I am a friend!

About: I adore all cats and volunteered at the Bradshaw Animal Shelter to assess the temperment of new arrivals, determining of they were feral (and meant for the barn cat program), adoptable, or could be rehabilitated as domestic cats. I've cared for many older cats and my sweet Orange Kitty while he had cancer. I've also helped my friends take care of stray cats, including on out-of-state trips, and either find homes for them or arrange for their transport to no-kill shelters.

“Jessica took such great care of my cats during repeated visits for the week I was not home. By the end of the week my cats wanted to follow her home :) She was especially patient with play time with my higher energy orange kitty boy and keeping my place so clean!!! Would love to have Jessica cat sit for us again anytime!”


“So grateful for Jess who came last minute for a meet and greet and then did a great job taking care of the kitties. We appreciated her detail-oriented approach and thoughtfulness. Thank you so much!!”

“Sarah is wonderful! I have two cuddly, social cats who enjoy human interaction while I’m gone. Sarah is a great communicator, shared plenty of pictures and updates, and my girls loved her. It was so nice to know my cats were in great hands.”


“Sophia was the perfect sitter for my cat while I was away for vacation. She was very trustworthy and respectful of my home and my pet - 2 of the most important things in life! She has great experience and definitely cares and it shows. I would definitely recommend and/or book her again.”

“Samantha was very responsive and great at communicating! She was great with Cleo even though Cleo can be sassy! She respected Cleo’s boundaries but also gave her lots of attention. She followed rules exactly and put me at ease while I was away. I knew my cat was in good hands!”


“Mel is awesome! Very professional, easy to get along with, great communication, reliable and absolutely great with our dogs! Frank (our large male pitbull mix) and Becky (our medium female bulldog) both adored Mel from the first moment they met her. She is very much Frank and Becky approved! Mel's done a great job taking care of our pups, she's a fantastic pet professional, and we highly recommend her services!”

“I had a sudden family emergency, and Holly saved the day! Holly is very professional and communicative, and I would recommend her without reservation. We got lots of pictures from Holly while we were away & my two cats just loved her and were so happy. One of my cats also takes daily medication, and Holly didn’t miss a beat. Thank you, Holly!”


“Natalie was very communicative, took good photos, and overall gave our cats excellent care for a couple check ins, which we booked on somewhat short notice. Definitely recommend!”

“Teddy had a great afternoon and evening. Communication was very quick and I love getting updates and photos. He had a great night and slept well when he got home. I will definitely use her again when we are back in the area thank you so much.”

“They took care of my pup like she was their own. Drop off was a breeze and pick up went flawlessly. They provided periodic updated of my dogd temperment and attitude which helped me feel at ease.”

About: I’ve taken in stray cats when I was only 8 years old. I also have lot of experience with dogs, helping to raise them my whole life. I also have experience with reptiles, amphibians you name it. I’ve taken in close relatives animals, neighbors whoever. My motto is the bigger the pup the tighter the hug. I’m currently in school, and work part time. I can do drop ins, and walks from 1-10 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And 8-12 on other days. I have a reliable transportation. So I will always be there on time for your fur babies. I also always carry treats to warm the babies up. I am also very respectful of people’s home. I am also a Certified Nurse Aide. So I have plenty of experience in giving care in my clients homes.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life since childhood. Ive had inside and outside dogs, I would bathe, feed, and teach them how to sit, lay, and stay. I love having animals around, they bring the extra joy I think everyone needs in their life. I currently work from home, so I can give them extra attention and keep them company. I can take them on walks every few hours as well as bathroom breaks when needed. I live next to a park, so I can take the pets for walks and use the restroom. If they need to be in a crate or outside, I have a patio where they can hangout to get some fresh air.
“We are so glad we chose Alexandra to watch our puppy. She was awesome with our 6 month old puppy Rooney. She walked him and sent us pictures of his day. Her dogs got along great with ours and at the end of the day our pup was tired out. Which was perfect for us since we were at a meeting all day. Very trustworthy and kind. If we need care in the future we would definitely choose Alex for the job.”

“My pup Yuki loves staying at Aubree’s family’s home when I need to be away. I can count on him to get all the pets and cuddles and to be tired out by the time he’s home. Love the prompt communication and period updates throughout the day. Would recommend!”

“I highly recommend Joel! My old girl was calm and happy after her day stay. Extremely considerate of Lola’s needs. She’s a picky pup and can be stressed by strangers, but not with Joel. Didn’t have to worry about her safety or well-being. A great help and huge relief.”
“I couldn't ask for more from a dog sitter. Marcie followed my instructions, provided a comfortable environment with positive stimulation, kept me updated with messages/pics and was just an overall pleasant person. Wonderful job!”

“Grisel always treats my girl like real family. Always considerate and understanding, and has helped take the very best care of her. She always gets excited when we pull up because she knows she will be loved and have a good time. Highly recommend.”

“Tanisha was fantastic with my dog Morty. My dog is reactive and nervous around new dogs, and she was willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he would feel comfortable with her and her dog. We did a meet and greet, followed by a test overnight board and test daycare. It was incredible to see how well my dog settled in with her. You can tell she cares a lot about the dogs she watches. I got a lot of pictures and videos of my dog while he was with Tanisha (more than I've ever gotten from a sitter). I highly recommend Tanisha!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life ever since I was a little kid—they’ve been my constant companions through everything. There’s just something magical about them: the way they greet you like you’ve been gone for years (even if it’s just five minutes), their unconditional love, and how they turn a simple walk into the highlight of the day. I absolutely love walking dogs, feeling that tug on the leash as they excitedly explore every scent, or just spending quiet time with them curled up nearby. They make the world feel less lonely; I never truly feel alone when dogs are around. Lately, I’ve been bringing my sister’s dog up from Fresno to stay with me for weeks at a time, and it’s been pure bliss—extra playtime, more cuddles, and that doubled-up dog joy. I’m at my happiest when I’m surrounded by them, whether it’s throwing a ball in the park, brushing their fur, or just watching them dream with those little leg twitches. Dogs have this incredible gift for bringing out the best in us and filling our days with genuine happiness. If you’ve got that same kind of love for them, you know exactly what I mean! 🐶❤️ Lately, I’ve been off work for a while, and I’m looking to fill my days with some real excitement. I’ve been bringing my sister’s dog up from Fresno to stay with me for weeks at a time, and it’s been pure bliss—extra playtime, more cuddles, and that doubled-up dog joy. But to amp things up even more, I’m thinking about diving deeper into dog-related adventures: volunteering at a local animal shelter (walking and playing with pups who need it most), trying out dog agility classes or hiking trails with furry friends, joining a dog meetup group for pack walks and play dates. I make my dog healthy foods to eat, I always wash her up after walks and play with her with her toys, we love to just chill on the couch and watch tv.
“Hana took such good care of my puppy and kept me updated with cute photos and videos. She had a beautiful big yard for him to run around in. Would definitely recommend”

“Heath Bar didn’t make it easy - he barked the entire time at Danielle’s unless she was there with him, I k ew he had separation anxiety but the only time it presented for the last several years was while he was alone in the car. His being alone in the house was not a problem for him. My take away is to be certain someone will be at home with him for most of the time he will be in someone else’s care. Danielle was very responsive and kept me informed the day Heath was in her care.”

“First time leaving Oreo with someone for the day . Admittedly, I was nervous , Anna resolved all of that , she was communicating through the day , Oreo was exhausted when I got him back which told me he had a blast ! I’ll use Anna again ! Oreo has a new friend !”

“My chihuahua does not always like meeting new people but I could tell he warned up quickly to Bari. Definitely a relief since I was nervous about how he'd do. Nice and good with dogs 5⭐ and the occasional pictures also put me at ease during his stay”

“Sunshine and Shannon did a great job with our two boys. I had to go into work for few days and our dogs loved spending time with them and received lots of pets and walks. I appreciated the meet and greet, and all the updates and pictures during the day. I could tell my dogs were super comfortable spending time with them. This was the first time with Sunshine and Shannon and we’ll definitely be back!”

“My dog seems to enjoy the experience with this dog sitter! Great communication with pictures of him enjoying plenty of toys and a nice walk. Highly recommend for a fun and caring dog daycare service.”


“Richard was the perfect playmate for my active young dog. They went for walks and played together all day. Communication was very easy, clear, and frequent. Richard and his wife are both very kind and flexible with my schedule. Im sure my Sophie will look forward to spending the day with them again soon.”

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life, and volunteered at the Bradshaw Animal Shelter for a year after college. I've fostered kittens and a senior cat with medical issues, and cared for many older pets over my life. I once house sit for a family with rabbits so I have a little bit of familiarity with them. I have house sit for friends with a standard poodle and a mini doodle, including giving the standard poodle his daily medication and taking them both for twice daily trips to the park. I have also checked in on my parents' two dogs and 5+ cats to feed them, let them out for potty breaks, play with them, and give them medication. My sweet orange tabby got cancer a few years ago and I fed him three times a day through a feeding tube and administered his medication as well. I work some evenings, so I am free most of the day to care for your furry friends. I take care of my own senior kitty in the mornings, after my evening shifts, and during any free days. I have pet sat for friends and family before, including giving medication and two daily walks. I will follow all instructions to the letter and ensure your pet feels right at home.

“Sophia met with Miss Serenity prior to the scheduled walks! She was on time and very sweet to my pup! The time I had originally scheduled her was too hot for Serenity, so she adjusted the time to walk her, which was amazing! I would definitely recommend booking her to take care of your fur baby!”


About: Hi there! I’m Mel. I’ve had dogs in my life for over 30 years — growing up with Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Border Collies, and Labs, and later caring for high-energy breeds like Huskies, Malamutes, Pit Bulls, and Dobermans as an adult. I’m comfortable with big dogs, strong pullers, and dogs who need real exercise, but I’m just as happy with a Chihuahua curled up on the couch. I spent 8 years as a nanny, so looking after something that depends on you completely isn’t new to me — it’s second nature. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. I don’t board dogs in my own home, since I have a resident cat (a very opinionated tabby mix), but I’m experienced with cats too, including Maine Coons and other long-haired breeds, if you need a sitter for feline friends as well. I’ve handled the less glamorous parts of the job without blinking: medication schedules, backyard cleanup, even a dog who met a skunk face-first. My standard for every visit is simple — when you get home, your house should look better than when you left it, and your dog should be fed, exercised, and ready to sleep well. I treat your home and your animal the way I’d want mine treated. I’m self-employed, so my schedule is flexible and mostly built around dog care. I’m generally available 8am–6pm on weekdays, with some days running later. In the summer heat, I keep an eye on pavement temperature and adjust walk times so it’s safe on paws — sometimes that means earlier or later in the day rather than midday. Weekends are available with advance scheduling. I’m also happy to do drop-in visits spaced out over the day or across longer periods if that suits your dog’s routine better than a single visit. Since I don’t board dogs in my own home — I have a resident cat — all my care happens in your space, on your dog’s normal turf, which tends to be less stressful for them than an unfamiliar house. I follow whatever routine you set: meals, meds, walks, exercise. I’m comfortable administering medication, cleaning up after accidents or messes, and handling anything that comes up — I’ve dealt with a dog getting skunked, dogs with high energy who need real exercise, and the everyday logistics of keeping a home running while you’re away. My rule for every visit: your house should look better than when you left it, and your dog should be fed, exercised, and settled by the time you get home.
“Marina is so great! She is reliable and she is always on time! We booked with her a couple times and Bentley is always happy and relaxed after spending time with her. I totally would recommend her and book with her again!”

About: I love animals and making sure they are happy. I can accommodate for any specific needs they may have. I take care of our family pets daily & have done multiple pet & house sits for friends and family. I am trying to find a stable job with reasonable income while helping my mother, my schedule is mostly open when im not needed to watch my other 2 pets. I love my pets company, giving them things too do like running round and playing chase. Cleaning, Feeding and making sure they're happy and if they need their medicine. Usually taking care or them for most of the day.
About: Hi all! I’ve been around animals my entire life. Grew up with an Australian Shepherd. Since then have had a small Maltese mix and now a corgi who I love so dearly. Plus 2cats. I’ve cat/dog sat for the weekend for many family friends. I will play with your pet, brush your pet, give them fresh water! Take them on a walk or out to potty. And I will make it feel loved every second I’m there! I love animals and connect pretty well to them. So I hope my love for animals can help you feel comfortable with me taking care of your fur baby while you’re away! I just ask, no aggressive animals please. Thank you so much and I hope to work with you and your fur child soon! I would love to take your pup for a walk around the neighborhood to potty or get some sniffs in, or just stop in for some pets and love! I’m sure to give my dog lots of cuddles, exercise, and rest time. Toys are very important, and I believe in treats, but not overdoing it!
About: I grew up with dogs (both big & small) my entire life. I started as a pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family, and grew to become a popular overnight sitter for many families in the Davis area. I have many years of experience walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. I have taken care of senior dogs and cats, some with special needs and medications. I’m a genuine animal lover so your pets will always be in good hands. My work schedule is currently flexible so I’m not in the office every day. I have time for longer drop-in visits and walks, more than once per day. I can do overnight stays in the client’s home, preferably no longer than 2 nights. I have lots of experience staying with pets in the client’s home for long periods of time so I’m very respectful of the space I’m in. I always stick to the routine the pet is used to. I’m also a dog owner myself so your pet will be treated how I would treat my own dog (with lots of love!).

About: Hi! I’m originally from Norway and currently live with my husband and our very friendly cat. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I was the main caregiver for my dog for 11 years, so I’m very used to daily walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe and happy. Since then, I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, fostered cats, cared for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs, and I even had 3 bunnies myself, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, because they really are family. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or just wants company and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own❤️❤️ I currently work part time starting around 4 PM, and my husband gets off work around the same time (3:30pm) so there will almost always be someone home to care for your pet. I also have a lot of free time and love to stay active during the day, I love to walk, hike and run,so pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m excited to give your pet lots of attention and care while you are away! I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable in my home. We recently moved into our apartment, so there isn’t a lot of clutter or things pets can get into. Our cat is also very nosy, so we’ve already made sure our home is very pet-proof and safe. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and any instructions from the owner. Whether that’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, or just giving them extra attention and comfort, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and at home while you’re away. I also love going on walks and staying active, so dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and outdoor time with me💓
“Andrea has been walking my dog Jack for a a couple of weeks now and he has been so happy with her! He is skiddish and shy, but has taken very well to Andrea, which I think speaks well of her! They walk during lunch and he is so much more calmer in the afternoons and when I get home. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was little, growing up with a sheltie dog from when I was born.

I’m a student currently, but on the days I don’t have class or need a break from studying, I like to stay active by walking with furry friends. I keep a tight schedule when taking care of pets, making sure to keep pups on their regular routine when their parents are away. I can accommodate any needs be that dietary, crating, activities etc. My main priority is to keep your pup healthy and happy.

“Achara was absolutely amazing! She did such a great job communicating how Sammy was doing throughout the day sent pictures just overall a really great experience and I absolutely use her again.”

“We hit the jackpot with Brandee! She is extremely warm and generous, and it is very obvious that she loves dogs very much! Our girls had a wonderful time, and they ran around the backyard so much that they were all tuckered out when they got home. We will use her again without hesitation.”


“Grateful to find someone that my dog and I were willing to trust. My dog is so happy with Michael!! She definitely makes her self at home at Michael’s. I know she gets her walks and plenty of play time with her sitter. Micheal is great at sending me updates on how my dog is doing as well as photos which I love! We are great full to find someone that works with my dog so well and can give her that one on one time which she needs.”

About: I have owned dogs most of my life from a Doberman pinscher to a chowchow to an Australian cattle dog and a couple cats throughout my life. I love animals! I no longer have our latest family Australian cattle dog who was with us for 17 years and miss being around animals. I am an independent contractor in real estate so I can set my own hours. I’m very flexible! I love to get out and walk a lot for exercise for myself as well! I give them lots of love and attention that they need. Play with them and make sure they’re happy, exercised, and well fed at their eating time
“Grisel was AMAZING!! She was communicative and sent many photos of Lillie to me! They have a wonderful large yard where all the dogs could hangout and play, and she even took Lillie for a walk in the evening to help with her bowels. I felt comfortable leaving Lillie in Griselda’s care and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Katherine and Brulee welcomed our dog Moxie with open arms. I was glad to leave my dog with an experienced dog owner and their well behaved dog. Katherine did a great job meeting Moxie's needs with the added benefit of having a spacious backyard. Moxie was in good hands and we appreciate the help. Will definitely book again!”

“My pup received wonderful love and care from Marie & James. I received photos and videos at least twice a day. Will trust them again with my doggy when we travel.”


“Demetra and her husband were the BEST dog sitters. Our anxious dog fell in love with them and their two dogs. They were excellent at communication and sent daily updates with photos and video. We will definitely be asking them to pet-sit again and I enthusiastically recommend them.”

About: I have experience with many different types of animals. I have cats, dogs, a snake, a lizard, snails, and fish. I also lived on a farm and have experience with farm animals. I am good at training dogs and have experience with animal's medication management. My dog has an anxiety disorder, and one of my cats had an intense medical scare which required medication three times a day. Work to provide the best for all my animals, and I'll work to provide the best for yours as well. I currently work part-time during the days. There is never a time where my house is unsupervised for more than a few hours at a time to go out and eat or run errands. With my dogs, I typically crate them when I leave to prevent them from causing problems like digging in the trash, but that is up to your discretion for your animal. I live in a house in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs frequently run around in. I have a small inflatable pool for the animals to play in during the heat. I will take care to attend to each animal's individualized needs, so if your dogs needs to be crated at certain times or has specific triggers please let me know.
“Matt & his wife exceeded my expectations! This was my first time using a dog sitter & I was a little nervous initially because my dogs are my furry babies but I could tell as soon as I met these two, there was nothing to worry about. Matt kept me updated everyday with pics/videos and telling me about their day. He made sure they stayed on the same diet & eating schedule as I had them on. With every picture he sent, I could tell that they were having a blast. If you want assurance that your dog(s) will be well cared for, then don’t hesitate & book with Matt. He will be my go to for all of our dog sitting sessions for now on. Thank you so much again, Matt!”

“Second time booking with Zariyah, she is the best, fast respond, good service, and passionate about dogs, my dog seems very satisfied with his stay lol.”

“My regular sitter had to back out at the last minute and I was stressing out, but I'm very grateful to Marc and Rachael for accepting my 3 fur kids at the last minute. They sent me updates and pictures everyday, and I could tell that my dogs were very well cared for. Their house was a great environment for my doggies, and they did a great job with dogsitting them for a whole week. Highly recommended!”

“We couldn't be happier with the care our dog, Shasta, received! Alexandra has watched Shasta multiple times, including a recent 10-day stay, and every experience has been fantastic. It's such a relief knowing she's in loving, dependable hands whenever we're away. We always receive updates and photos, and it's clear that Shasta is treated like part of the family. She comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for every time. Alexandra's communication, reliability, and genuine love for animals give us complete peace of mind. We highly recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog sitter. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!”
