“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“Holly was an amazing sitter for Hazel. I received regular pupdates with pictures and in every single photo Hazel looked absolutely comfortable and happy with Holly, her home, and her family (including her 2 dogs). I feel 100% confident and comfortable using Holly’s services in the near future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“May is definitely my new pet sitter. She was accommodating and flexible and went thr extra mile to help me (in a pinch). I have a sensitive pup and I can tell when he came home he had been having a good time. Happy pup. She even dropped my lil guy off for me because i was stuck in a work meeting. Very friendly dog loving people. Thanks May! Will definitely use again.”
“I highly recommend Gelare. The communication was excellent, she provided regular updates and adorable photos. I truly appreciate her attention to details. Our dog was happy and well taken care of. If you are looking for someone responsible and loving, Gelare is the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking her again the future. She is the best!”
“Chewie had a great time with Khamsay and Amit. He was well taken care of with lots of walks. Khamsay sent lots of updates with photos and was so nice. Chewie can’t wait for his next stay with them.”
“Cannot say enough great things about how these two wonderful people treating our aging pup. Flawless communication, endless love and attention! I would give 10 stars if I could.”
“Julia was a fantastic sitter for my baby Kimchi! She sent multiple photos + updates throughout my pets stay, fed her medicine everyday, and her pup Yuki was so gentle and patient with Kimchi. Her place is very secure, so I felt safe having her there. She also takes Kimchi on walks which not all sitters do. And lastly Kimchi has always been an anxious dog who doesn’t acclimate well in new settings, and while she still gets afraid of Julia’s roommates, she felt safe and calm with Julia right off the bat. Would definitely recommend!”
“Beth is excellent, my dog, Princess, is so happy staying at her house for 7 days. She gets along with her dogs and she misses them after she comes back to me. I will definitely ask help from Beth again. Thank you Beth!!!”
“Michael was great for my dog Olive! She had a great stay with him and his family. They took her on multiple walks a day and kept us updated throughout the stay. One of the best experiences we have had.”
“Alice & Micah were absolutely the best! Our dog was so happy and comfortable with them. They provided a safe, friendly, and loving home for him. Alice sent me daily updates with pictures. I am very happy and look forward to using them again. They are wonderful.”
“Ann was wonderful. She was very accommodating and provided regular updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Annie, Ty and their daughters took wonderful care of my dog. They asked lots of questions about his care and routine and provided regular updates and photos of him while he was with them. He came home happy and relaxed after his time in their home.”
“Margaret & Kyle took such great care of my 4 month old puppy, Kalua! She made sure to send daily pictures, updates, and videos while my husband and I were in vacation. Best of all, Kalua gained a new best friend with their dog, Toffee! We are so grateful for them and will definitely be trusting them with caring for Kalua in the future 💛”
“Jocelyn was so great with our pup! She was available on short notice and was very communicative. She had a puppy close to age with ours and she sent pictures and videos of them playing daily :) would rebook with her for sure!”
“Allison & Shane did such a wonderful job taking care of Bella. Being able to find a sitter that you truly feel you can trust to tend to & look after your fur baby in the way they need is invaluable! Allison & Shane were thoughtful in the way that they approached our shy & anxious girl, giving her exactly what she needed to feel safe and a part of their family. They were also very communicative with us and provided plenty of pictures throughout the entirety of her stay to keep us informed on how our baby was doing. Everything I could’ve asked for & more! We’d love to have Bella stay over again in the future. :)”
“Sarah and Shelby were awesome! Definitely recommend for any of your pet’s services. They took in our 8 month old puppy with short notice for an overnight stay. We were in town from out of state to visit family and this was our dogs first stay away from home. We were updated with pleasant photos throughout the night and they were willing to keep her until noon the next day. Their dogs Ziggy and Titan were very friendly and played well together. We will be back!”
“Gris has taken care of our Lili 3 times this summer so far. I think Lili has had better vacations than I have this summer! I was initially not sure how well I would like the fact that there were other dogs there and in retrospect, I was wrong. I think Lili really enjoys being around the other dogs and Gris is very tuned into their needs and works well with them. She also takes them out to parks and for walks. When I’ve dropped Lili off, she goes right in, checks things out and knows where the treats are. From observing her behavior, she likes it there.”
“Maya was amazing! She sent pictures, communicated regularly, and calmed all nerves (both mine and my dog’s) for leaving my dog with her for a week. We’ve already rebooked with her!”
“Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.”

“Samantha was absolutely fantastic! She spent time and patient care trying to coax our shy cats to come out, making sure they felt comfortable, ate well and got some love during her visits. She also went out of her way to bring in a huge stack of packages and wedding gifts for us while we were gone. Super reliable, great updates and communication, highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of and owned many cats throughout my life. I have house sat to take care of animals and dropped in to feed them for family friends many times. My favorite cats are the spicy ones! You can see my own cat, Jasmine, in my profile.
“Kaylan was very thorough and super kind and caring to our two cats. Went above and beyond for other miscellaneous things around the house, would absolutely book again.”
“A.J is amazing! I felt so comfortable leaving my cats in great hands. It’s hard to find a great sitter and A.J is wonderful. Look forward to having him watch them again. Thank you!!”
About: With three diverse cats, including a senior needing special care and kittens I’ve raised, I quickly bond with all ages and temperaments, combining proven reliability with meticulous routine and litter maintenance.

“Haley is a wonderful pet sitter who is reliable and willing to go above and beyond to ensure that my cats are happy and well! So grateful to have you in the neighborhood, Haley!”
“Daisy took wonderful care of our two cats, Leaf and Nugget, for seven days while we were away. We reached out on fairly short notice, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to work with from the start. She was professional, reliable, and very kind throughout the entire week. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, which gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about animals and treats them as if they were her own. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and would absolutely recommend Daisy to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. We look forward to having her watch Leaf and Nugget again in the future!”
“Laura has pet sat for our two cats twice now. She goes above and beyond and even stopped by an extra time to check on one of the kitties. She is dependable, always on time, very responsible and a great communicator. I did not worry with her in charge. Hope she is available next time I need a sitter!”
About: I have had cats my entire life. I currently have one senior cat whom I’ve had since she was a kitten. Before my other cat passed I had to administer medication which includes oral and injections. I have no problem with cleaning a litter box or any other car your kitty needs.
About: I’ve taking care of many animals, puppy to old. I’ve trained my Akita since she was a puppy and know what it takes to care for stubborn dogs. I’m very attentive and will always make sure the animal comes first. I currently work a full time job but it’s fairly flexible when it comes to tasks I need to complete. On top of working full time I am also very excited to work extra hours because I love staying busy and being around animals! I make sure they always have fresh water and make sure the dog has everything they need right as I get there. As I’m leaving, I make sure to clean up after not only myself and the dog, but also make sure I tidy up a space better than I found it!
“Maria did drop-in visits for our 5 y.o. cat while we were away for a couple weeks, and she was wonderful! She tended to all of our precious girl’s needs (and she can be very needy), and kept her happy and active while we were out. I’d highly recommend Maria for cat-sitting needs.”
About: With over 3 years of cat care experience, I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I provide patient, attentive care tailored to their needs. My background includes working in a compounding pharmacy that specialized in pet medications. This experience gave me hands-on exposure to medications used for cats and dogs and helped me develop the attention to detail and confidence needed to assist pets with medication routines.
“Tiffany took great care of our two cats while we are away. Great communication and thank you so much for taking good care of them. Definitely looking forward to working with her in the future.”

“Holly was wonderful with Anna my German Shepherd. She took great care of her. When I returned Anna was calm and very happy. Happy to have new friends to play with and very happy with her new doggie day care. Everything was very nice. Holly is exceptionally kind and in touch with what animals need and want. Thank you Holly for an excellent experience for Anna.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Ty and Annie. They are incredibly friendly, clearly care about what they do, and communicated with us every step of the way. They were especially understanding of our dog’s anxiety and went out of their way to help him feel comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”
About: In my home, pets are welcome to sleep on the bed, and they can also have their own private room. I have many years of experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and comfort level, so I always take the time to learn about their feeding schedule, potty habits, energy level, and any special needs. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive home environment. I am comfortable caring for playful puppies, senior pets, and pets that may need extra patience while adjusting to a new place. I also send regular photo and video updates so pet parents can feel reassured while they are away. I am currently a full-time homemaker, so someone is home throughout the day. This allows me to give each dog plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I am able to follow each pet’s feeding schedule, provide regular potty breaks, spend time playing with them, and make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for during their stay. Since I keep my boarding schedule limited, I can give each dog the time and attention they need. I provide care in a clean, comfortable townhouse with a calm home environment. Pets are supervised throughout their stay and cared for according to their normal routines. Before each stay, I ask about feeding instructions, potty habits, energy level, separation anxiety, behavior around other dogs, and any medical or special care needs. I can also provide a separate room or personal space if a pet needs extra time to adjust or prefers a quieter environment. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like part of the family.
“Our two dogs spent a full day with Jason and our experience was just wonderful. Upon arriving he brought us into his home to show us around and make us feel comfortable with the environment and with him. He asked us all the right questions about what our dogs might need. The dogs clearly had a great time, were engaged with throughout the day, and we got lots of great photos and videos. Jason was extremely friendly, communicative, flexible, and pleasant to deal with.”
“Gris was amazing to us , she is very good at communicating and ease every fear you can have. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone else for a long period of time (8 ish hours lol ) and knowing that my dog is not the easiest pup I was very worried and stressed about the whole situation.Thankfully I found Gris , she was able to book us last minute, was very easy to communicate with, sent me pictures and answer my messages promptly. My dog loved spending the day at her house and playing with the other pups, he was exhausted from all the playing at the end of the day. I would highly recommend her.”
“Adam and his family are clearly dog lovers! They watched our dog for a day, and they sent many photos of her having fun. Their home was beautiful, and their yard was spacious. They were still giving my dog lots of belly rubs when I drove up to get her, and she was asleep when she got back to our home so they kept her nice and engaged throughout the day. I will happily trust this family with her again!”
“Corinne and Christopher took great care of our Lola! They helped us out last minute and were super flexible with our pick up time due to the fact that we were moving. They are super nice and loved having her. We are super happy we found them and will definitely have them watch Lola for us anytime they want to!”
“sophie was very kind and communicative throughout the process! she recieved my daisy with open arms and took her on walks, sent pictures throughout and even shared her own dogs food with our girl. will be returning to sophie :)”
About: My wife and I have been dog people our entire lives. I have always had dogs, and my wife used to raise them. We are active, go to fiesta lsland and the dog beaches. We have a large fenced yard and take walks regularly. We would love to care for your dog while you are out of town. We know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you can trust and you know will care for them while you are gone. We will make sure to send photos and keep your pet active while you are away. We have plenty of room and would love to watch your dog. My wife is a nurse so her schedule allows her to be home some weekdays. I work part time remote and part time in the office. Weekends generally work best for us. But can also adjust our schedules for the week. I have a larger fenced yard with ample room for dogs. I am active and enjoy going for walks with the pups we watch. We understand what it takes to care and be responsible for a dog. We will make sure to treat your pup as if it was our own.
About: I am an animal lover at heart. I have had cats and dogs for a good portion of my life and treat them as my family. Currently I am working with Second Chance Dog Rescue as a foster mom for shelter dogs. Being a foster mom has been a very rewarding experience by providing rescued dogs with the love and socialization necessary to find their furever home. I work from home full-time which will allow your dog to be loved and cared for while you are out of town. I have been dog sitting (for large and small dogs) for friends for 20+ years, as well as, owning my own dogs and cats. While at my house your dog will play with my 3 small dogs and have plenty of time to play in the yard. Book your stay today, I would love to meet you and your dog! I work full-time from home. Your dog will be with me while I work and will play with my three dogs. I take all animals out for potty breaks every couple hours. This routine is very familiar to me as I have been doing it for 14+ years. I have a completely fenced yard. When your dog goes out to play or go potty, I will be there supervising to ensure all is well. I have a big turf area in my yard for dogs to run and play. All dogs will sleep inside the house either with me in the bedroom or in a crate if they are crate trained. I work from home full-time. Wake up time is between 6-7 AM. Dogs are fed around 7 AM for breakfast and 5 PM for dinner. Your dog will hang out with me while I work inside my home. I have a completely fenced in yard where your dog will run and play on the turf with my dogs. We like to play fetch as well.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years through both personal experience and helping friends with their pets. I currently have a young corgi of my own, and before that I helped care for a Shiba Inu who was often staying at my home. I’ve also done dog sitting for friends and cared for a Samoyed in my home for about six months, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, and I always try to create a safe, calm, and loving environment. I’m experienced with walks, playtime, feeding routines, and paying close attention to each dog’s comfort and energy level. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates while you’re away. My husband and I both work mostly from home, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention throughout the day. Because of our flexible schedules, I’m available for pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate walks, playtime, feeding routines, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely run around and play. I always try to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each dog’s personality and needs. Since I have a young corgi myself, I’m used to active dogs, daily routines, and providing lots of supervision and attention. Safety and communication are very important to me, and I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates during your dog’s stay.
“Michelle and Steve are amazing! They are incredibly patient with my sometimes rambunctious 9 month old sherpard terrier mix. Michelle provides really thorough daily updates with some highlights and works to ensure that the behaviors that the owner is working on with their pup are followed during the stay. The icing on the cake is their pup Daisy. She is incredibly sweet and calm, and my pup Iris loves spending the day playing with her. 10/10 would recommend, and would not hesitate to book for sitting or boarding services!”
About: My husband and I are true dog lovers, and our rescue pup, Myka, is a cherished member of our family. We know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, and we'll care for yours as if they were our own. We offer a safe, loving home with a large backyard, plenty of attention, and daily walks in the canyon nearby. Myka is friendly and respectful of other dogs. She enjoys playing when they want to play, but is also happy to give them space if that's what they prefer. Whether your dog loves adventures, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a cozy spot, we'll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for during their stay. ❤️ I work from home and only work a few hours each day, which means I have plenty of time to give your dog attention, companionship, playtime, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day! We have a very cozy, dog-friendly home with plenty of toys, comfortable dog beds, and lots of space to relax and feel at home. Our goal is to make every dog feel loved, comfortable, and part of the family during their stay. I always supervise dogs carefully, both indoors and outdoors, and follow any instructions provided by their owners to ensure they remain happy, healthy, and secure. We share our home with our rescue dog, Myka, who is sweet, friendly, and respectful of other dogs. She enjoys playing when other dogs are interested, but is also happy to give them space.
“I've been using this sitter for quite some time now. Very reliable and dependable. She's been able to help with short notice sitting and out of state work trips for my crazy work schedule. My pup loves it there and enjoys their entire family. I don't get as many pictures but I get a few and my pup is always a happy camper whenever I pick him up. Would definitely recommend this sitter all anyone in need of pet care.”
“Shaina is very attentive and provides lots of Updates and pictures. You can really tell how much she loves dogs. Her dog buddy is so sweet and matches my dogs energy. Pluto gets so excited heading over to her house and he gets the best care. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up in a family of animal lovers. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds, including Beagles, Poodles, Pekingese, and many lovable mixed breeds. My true passion for pet sitting began years ago when I started caring for a neighbor’s Beagle who preferred staying with me all day. That experience taught me that I could provide the same deep love and devotion to 'guest' dogs as if they were my own. For the last several years, my husband and I have been raising our own friendly mixed-breed dog, which has been a wonderful experience for our two children. We are dedicated to creating a welcoming, family centered environment where your pet will feel the warmth and safety of a real home while you are away. Your dog will stay in a comfortable home with access to a spacious backyard and a neighborhood that offers plenty of open areas for safe, enjoyable walks. My daily routine includes working from home and transporting my kids to activities, ensuring consistent supervision. There is always someone present in the home. Dogs in my care receive 2–3 structured walks per day(I prefer going to a closest park), along with regular attention, playtime, and a calm, family oriented environment. Safety is a top priority in our home. The yard is secure, and your dog will be supervised at all times, with careful introductions to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I will make sure to follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions closely, and I maintain a calm, clean environment to reduce stress. You can feel confident that your dog will be cared for with attentiveness, structure, and genuine concern for their well being.
About: I have 35+ years of experience working with dogs of all ages, including as a trainer, breeder, and sitter. I am comfortable working with all breeds and temperaments. I am an early retiree looking for ways to stay active and busy. I am generally available on weekdays from 8 to 5. I'd love to spend time with your furry family members through enriching activities. I have a very friendly Vizsla at home with a 1 acre fenced in yard and direct access to a large open space preserve from my backyard.

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs, cats, reptiles, and many other pets since I was very young. I love animals and children and getting to work with them, and they also love me! I can't wait to meet your fur (or scale) babies! I'm currently going to college part-time, so I have plenty of available time in my day. I am flexible with all hours and can work around your schedule as needed. I treat your pets and your home just as I would mine.

“A.J. was fantastic! So positive and genuinely excited to meet our crazy pup. A.J. was also very quick to respond and was happy to help us out last minute. Our pup loved his walk with A.J. We will definitely be rebooking with A.J. in the future!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life and have a special place in my heart for them. I have personally owned all types of animals, from hermit crabs to cats and dogs. I am comfortable staying in your own home or making drop-in visits for your pets needs. For the last 8 years, I have consistently done that for many friends, family, and others. I am currently working part-time in the evenings at a senior living facility. I am also in college, which takes up some evening time as well. I will mostly be available before 4pm. It varies! Upon arriving at a clients home, I would try to make an animal as comfortable as possible. If your pet does not want to be pet, or if they hide, that is fine. I do not mind taking time to get to know them or just drop in for feeding with no contact. It all depends on the pet and I am flexible with how that works out.
About: Growing up around animals and routinely pet sitting for friends, I bring years of hands-on experience in building fast trust, handling daily routines, and treating every pet like family. Pet care is already a seamless part of my daily routine as a dedicated 3-cat mom. Because of my huge schedule flexibility, I can effortlessly adapt to your pet’s exact timeline for meals, playtime, and senior care, providing consistent, undivided attention whenever they need it. Safety and trust are my top priorities in your home. I strictly follow your instructions, keep entryways and spaces fully secure, maintain exact care routines, and send clear photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.
“Haley is my first ever regular dog walker through Rover and we have had the best experience. My Luna gets her daily hour of solid walking that has helped me keep her in good shape. Haley is really great at keeping up with communication and sharing anything she may notice about Luna, even things that I have been able to mention with her vet that are super helpful. She is super considerate and gives me plenty of notice if she is going to be out of town so that I dont end up having tl scramble unexpectedly ❤️”

“Mark is super nice, professional, mature and trustworthy. This was our first Rover experience so we were a bit skeptical about the type of person we were entrusting with our beloved Westie. Mark gladly agreed to meet with us which gave us a chance to get to know him. So far we have used him for about 8-10 walks and we are super pleased with him and with Rover.”

We love pets and want you to know yours will be in good loving hands. Note: we do have a pool and would be happy to let your pup swim if you want. We work from home and our kids are home for the summer. Your pup will have plenty of playmates and love. We love walking and taking the dogs to the park. We have a completely fenced in yard with room to run. We meet with you to understand your wants and wishes for your pups stay and tailor our care depending on what you want. If you’re okay with them on the bed, we are too. if you crate train, then we will. We want your pet to feel as normal as possible
About: I intern at the Pet Hospital of Penasquitos and have significant experience working with foster dogs, including puppies! I also Volunteer at SD Humane Society I have a pretty open schedule, so I am usually available for boarding/sitting most of the time. Weekdays and weekends both work with me ! I have a fenced yard, and ample space for animals to move around. The yard has fake grass and area to run around as your pet pleases!
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals and have always had to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. I have two puppers of my own—two Boxers who are full of energy and curiosity! My experience includes caring for puppies, high-energy dogs, and senior dogs at the end of their lives. I have administered medications and supplements, including pills and CBD, and am comfortable following specific care instructions. I also helped rescue a litter of puppies found on the side of the road, cared for them, and helped get them safely placed with a humane society. While I am not a professional dog trainer, I also have hands-on experience training my own dogs and working with dogs I have cared for. I am comfortable reinforcing basic commands, leash manners, potty training, routines, and positive behaviors with patience and consistency. I am currently home full-time and available for drop-ins or house sitting when needed! I am flexible and can often accept last-minute bookings. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs, I will dedicate my time to loving them and making them as comfortable as possible. I am happy to follow their normal routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, medications, training reinforcement, potty breaks, and plenty of attention! I’ll have plenty of time to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve! I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, whether it’s during walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or cuddles. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or just giving them attention and love, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I have experience with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable.

“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“Holly was an amazing sitter for Hazel. I received regular pupdates with pictures and in every single photo Hazel looked absolutely comfortable and happy with Holly, her home, and her family (including her 2 dogs). I feel 100% confident and comfortable using Holly’s services in the near future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“I highly recommend Gelare. The communication was excellent, she provided regular updates and adorable photos. I truly appreciate her attention to details. Our dog was happy and well taken care of. If you are looking for someone responsible and loving, Gelare is the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking her again the future. She is the best!”
“Chewie had a great time with Khamsay and Amit. He was well taken care of with lots of walks. Khamsay sent lots of updates with photos and was so nice. Chewie can’t wait for his next stay with them.”
“Julia was a fantastic sitter for my baby Kimchi! She sent multiple photos + updates throughout my pets stay, fed her medicine everyday, and her pup Yuki was so gentle and patient with Kimchi. Her place is very secure, so I felt safe having her there. She also takes Kimchi on walks which not all sitters do. And lastly Kimchi has always been an anxious dog who doesn’t acclimate well in new settings, and while she still gets afraid of Julia’s roommates, she felt safe and calm with Julia right off the bat. Would definitely recommend!”
“Michael was great for my dog Olive! She had a great stay with him and his family. They took her on multiple walks a day and kept us updated throughout the stay. One of the best experiences we have had.”
“Ann was wonderful. She was very accommodating and provided regular updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Margaret & Kyle took such great care of my 4 month old puppy, Kalua! She made sure to send daily pictures, updates, and videos while my husband and I were in vacation. Best of all, Kalua gained a new best friend with their dog, Toffee! We are so grateful for them and will definitely be trusting them with caring for Kalua in the future 💛”
“Jocelyn was so great with our pup! She was available on short notice and was very communicative. She had a puppy close to age with ours and she sent pictures and videos of them playing daily :) would rebook with her for sure!”
“Allison & Shane did such a wonderful job taking care of Bella. Being able to find a sitter that you truly feel you can trust to tend to & look after your fur baby in the way they need is invaluable! Allison & Shane were thoughtful in the way that they approached our shy & anxious girl, giving her exactly what she needed to feel safe and a part of their family. They were also very communicative with us and provided plenty of pictures throughout the entirety of her stay to keep us informed on how our baby was doing. Everything I could’ve asked for & more! We’d love to have Bella stay over again in the future. :)”
“Sarah and Shelby were awesome! Definitely recommend for any of your pet’s services. They took in our 8 month old puppy with short notice for an overnight stay. We were in town from out of state to visit family and this was our dogs first stay away from home. We were updated with pleasant photos throughout the night and they were willing to keep her until noon the next day. Their dogs Ziggy and Titan were very friendly and played well together. We will be back!”
“Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Slava as our dog sitter! Our dog Oban stayed with her for a week and had such a great time. He loved playing in her big yard and spent hours doing his favorite thing—catching balls. Oban also had fun with Slava’s sweet dog Pumpkin and the whole family, who made him feel right at home. It was clear he was well cared for, loved, and entertained the entire time. We felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Slava to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and loving sitter!”
“Haochen was very accommodating of my last minute request! She was very nice and understanding, and I felt reassured leaving my cat with her. The only thing I could have used was more communication, as I had to check in every time to get updates.”
“Jason was immediately friendly and communicated amazingly . My husband and I never have left our pets with sitters before and were quite hesitant in doing so . We felt so lucky to have found Jason and his family to watch our girl Sophie . He walked me through the process and kept reassuring me when I needed it . When we met Jason he was welcoming and his home was beautiful .He sent pictures throughout the day to give us comfort that Sophie was being well cared for . It was such a blessing to have found Jason . We will for sure use her services again in the future.”
“Shruti and Mayank are great hosts. My dog was happy and comfortable in their house. They made sure that she eats her food on time. I would recommend them for your fur babies when you’re not in town and need reliable dog sitter”
“Nina is amazing! Our dog Roxy really enjoyed her time there. Nina took Roxy on a long walk which she loved and sent updates and the cutest photos, highly recommend Nina. We will be using her again”
“thank you, Anna for your care of Sadie! We got great uodates with photos, all instructions were followed, and everything went very smooth! Sadie seems excited to go back and enjoy the big yard again :)”
