“Mình treated Harley like he was her own, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent daily updates, including activities, meals, and plenty of adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Harley felt right at home with her. I’m so grateful for the care and love she showed him—highly recommend!”
“We just picked up our 10 years old border collie Lucky after a 6 day 5 nights stay. It is a pity the highest rating is only 5 stars, to Lucky, Juanyi's service is 10 stars. My border collie does not like strangers in the beginning, but he allows Juanyi pet him in just a few hours. I could see from many pictures and videoes that my boy enjoys the friendship from Kaka, Panda and other lovely guests, also enjoys the love from Juanyi. I feel my boy is having a great vacation of his own too. I always hesitate to sign up family vacation because find a reliable dog sitter is often a difficult task, the last 3 dog sitter we used were moved or no longer offer service. I am glad we found Juanyi and the experience is so great. I read every review when i look for any kind of service, and by the time we book the service, there was only one review, to be honest i was a bit uncertain. During the met and greet, we walked around the neighborhood together, I was so glad Lucky quickly developped friendship with Kaka and Panda, and the drop off session was also great, which allow me to join the family vacation. We will definitely book with Juanyi again for our future vacations, and recommend to every pet parents, my Lucky was treated like Juanyi's own, yours will too!❤️”
“Jacqueline was great. She has excellent communication and you can see clearly that she loves animals. My dog tends to get nervous being away from me and she was very attentive to my dog's needs. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Hachi had a great time there! Alicia was very accommodating and helpful when answering questions. Would definitely recommend her for anyone who wants to board their dogs. She even helped Hachi with his meds which is a big help. Thanks again Alicia!”
“I dropped off my puppy for her first time boarding and Queenie and her dog Summer were very accommodating! She sent lots of updates + videos while we were gone and made sure to keep Kona entertained and loved while I was gone. I would definitely trust her to take care of my pup again and would recommend her to anyone else. Thanks again!”
“Luna and Bella had a great stay with Diem’s family. They were cared for and loved! We will definitely be back with Diem! Loved all the updates and reassuring texts. Thank you for taking great care of our pups, they had a blast!”
“This was the first time I tried a pet sitter app. My family are my usual dog sitters but they were all unavailable. So I requested Leah because my sister in law told me about her. I was really nervous but my sister in law told me about Rover & Leah and how much my fur nephews loved it there. We had to go on an unexpected trip for a funeral and Leah took care of my girl, Callie & fur nephews. Week before I even dropped off Callie, Leah was responsive to my questions and kind & patient with me. She let me know to create instructions on how to care for Callie & was so sweet & appreciative when I gave her back a full “book” of instructions. She was very reassuring that she & her family would care for Callie really well. Once my husband & I dropped off Callie to Leah, we were given a warm and welcoming greeting. She was inviting and just gave a very calming energy. Her place was clean, full of toys dog safe. Her furniture & products she used felt dog friendly & like a perfect second home for Callie. I felt really good about leaving Callie with her. During the trip we received updates. If I found myself just missing Callie and decided to check in by messaging Leah through the app, she was so responsive!. I knew Leah & her family were giving Callie lots of love & care (made obvious by the pictures sent through rover app). I was able to focus on family during this trip knowing Callie was in great hands! I only left Callie with Leah for 2 nights but, after this experience I would trust Leah to care for Callie for week(s) if needed. In the future, and if need to find care for my dog again, I will hope and pray Leah is available the days I need. She was awesome!!”
“This was the very first time I’ve ever left my 10 year old dog, Coco with anyone and I was honestly so nervous. But Son was absolutely amazing and made the entire experience so comforting for both of us. From the beginning, communication was great and we felt completely comfortable leaving Coco in his care. It was obvious she received lots of attention, love, and care during her stay. The updates and care he provided gave me so much peace of mind. Coco came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like family.”
“Always a pleasure to have Juliana take care of my senior dog. She's very caring and attentive to his needs and medication schedule. She also sends plenty of pictures and updates!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Xeno received! Boris and Olga sent great updates and photos that kept us at ease. Xeno came back super happy and clearly well-rested—we’ll definitely be booking with them again.”
“Jocelyn was a wonderful companion for our dog Norman. He took to her right away and seemed immediately comfortable in her home. He had a spacious yard to explore and a warm sunny porch to nap on. We got regular updates and felt at ease knowing he was well cared for. We will happily reach out to Jocelyn again for sitting services.”
“Tracy and her husband were really flexible with the drop off and pick up times. They took good care of our baby while we were away and sent us pictures to keep us updated. I will definitely use her service again!”
“Milo had a great time with Megha and her family! Especially with their dog Barfi! They sent lots of updates and lots of photos of Milo, which helped me feel reassured that Milo was in good hands and that he was having a good time. Milo played so much with Barfi, and it really seems like he has gained a new best friend. Will definitely be booking with them again!”
“TR had my cat for one week. I have had her for 10 years and I have NEVER boarded her before so I was a bit nervous. TR did an amazing job getting her to feel comfortable away from home and she was great about sending updates, pics and videos to me! I am so thankful and appreciate how skilled and mature and reliable TR is!!!”
“It’s such a relief knowing that Ollie is being so well loved and cared for while we’re away. Thank you again, Melissa and Tommy, we really appreciate you!”
“If you have a doodle, you know they are a species of their own. And Sepia's home is the best place for them. She is the most caring, kind and gentle dog sitter I met. She treats them as their own and cares for them as a pro. She sent tons of videos and photos everyday and took care of all his needs. We feel like Indigo had the best time ever with his aunty and cousin and made a lot of wonderful new friends. Even when she takes more than a dog a the time, she is very thorough in her interview process and only doggies that matches will stay together. We all are so grateful we found her and I know our pup loooooves her too!”
“Christopher and his wife took such great care of our dog Zoey while we were away. We got text updates on how she was doing and photos and videos too! It helped us feel at ease knowing she was well taken care of. The meet and greet before hand helped to confirm our decision to book with them and we are so glad we did!”

“Kimberley was a really good dog sitter. She made sure we got pictures of our dog on time. Even when we were in no network zone she made sure we got the pictures. I m sure Bruno enjoyed staying at hers!”
“Anto is an absolute best person. She loves dogs and keeps them just like her own, that’s all you expect from someone you’re leaving your pet to. She gave me timely updates, was accommodating with Alfys habits and provided the right kind of play and exercise. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Nikisha is great! We booked a bit last minute and she was able to accommodate us. She came for a meet & greet which we really appreciated. She was thorough and took care of everything we had discussed. She also sent notes and photos which were much appreciated as well. We’ll definitely book with Nikisha again!”
About: I've been caring for pets since I was young and completed a veterinary assisting program in high school. I also gained experience working at a dog grooming salon and a dog kennel that I currently still work at. I’m available most days of the week, preferably in the evenings when it’s cooler during hot days. On colder days, I have more flexibility throughout the day. I’m simply looking to earn some extra income. I will be able to walk their furry friends when needed and will love spending time with them and even playing with them to burn some energy.
“Lynn did a great job again as a cat/house sitter. She shows up on time, sends lots of pictures and updates, and ours cats really like her - they are not stressed out at all when we returned.”
“Catherine took such good care of our two bunnies while we were on vacation! This was my first time using Rover, and she helped make the process super easy. She was so patient and kind (even when the bunnies made a big mess!) She also provided thorough updates, lots of photos, and sweet notes that we really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much Catherine!”
About: I’ve always loved taking care of all sorts of animals since Elementary school. I saw it as very enjoyable and rewarding rather than boring or stressful. When taking care of an animal I’d always make sure they were fed, given water, had a good amount of play time, were taken outside, or anything that was needed to make the pet and owner satisfied! I’m going to begin college during the summer term but since my classes are online I’ll have more than enough time to ensure your pet is well taken care of! I’m available Monday - Friday after 12pm. Although if needed I can go earlier if i’m informed beforehand. I’ve always been respectful whenever I enter anyone’s home, If there’s any special instructions needed before entering the home such as taking of shoes (ect) i’ll be more than happy to do so!
“This is the first time Joleen takes care of my holland lop Piggy and she did a great job!! Piggy was doing great when I came back home and the floor was very clean. Thank you so much for your help!”
“Mary was an amazing sitter for my cat. Pepper is not easy, she is a little shy and is not friendly with strangers at all. However, Mary managed to win her over, and even got Pepper to ask for belly rubs! I was so happy and surprised that she got her to warm up. She sent me detailed reports and tons of photos everyday, which was great. I would 100% book Mary again and recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Ariana is professional, detail oriented, and goes above and beyond. Her Rover cards were super thorough and transparent. She took such care of my baby - you can tell she is a true cat whisperer by how quickly my baby began to trust her. I will definitely be requesting her top notch services again in the future.”
“Christina is the best. I've had my cats for 5 years and I've never spent a night away. Christina immediately put me at ease by being very diligent taking notes asking questions and most importantly really connecting with my cats. I'm very particular and so are my cats about our little routines and Christina wasn't bothered at all in fact went above and beyond. She did some drop in visits and really put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Christina!”
“The best caretaker i’ve ever had ! Shiqi sends daily updates with pictures and videos, asks questions if she has any concerns and gives any updates if needed. she communicates very well and very quickly ! Shiqi made sure to make my cat as comfortable as possible and made sure my cat was loved ! Shiqi loves animals and you can definitely tell by how she treats/ takes care of them. She was a wonderful host and even allowed me to squeeze in last minute, i wish i had found her sooner !! I will most definitely be rebooking whenever i need to leave town again.”
“Aivy was an amazing cat sitter who stood up to the plate with all my crazy detailed instructions and even took additional time to repair the litter robot when it malfunctioned. I appreciated her super fast communication too. My funny cats warmed up to her immediately. Aivy is now officially on my list of the trusted cat sitters who I will for sure hire in the future when needed.”
“Cameron is truly the best! She took care of my baby Draco for over a week. My cat is usually shy and afraid of new people but he loved Cameron instantly!! She was very caring, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond for my boy especially since he requires special care and attention. Its the first time I’m leaving Draco for a long trip and Cameron always updated me and sent me photos of how Draco is doing so I felt super relieved being out of the country and having Cameron look after Draco. Cameron is the best!! Shes so polite, very communicative and even cleaned after the apartment even though she didn’t have to! She is the best, I am lucky to have found her!! Will definitely recommend her for your fur babies <3”
“Estefania was a great cat sitter! She was always on time, followed the instructions, provided lots of updates, and cute photos of my cat. And my cat really enjoyed her! Would highly recommend and plan on using her services more in the future.”

“This was Emma’s first Rover booking, and she did a great job! She was very accommodating when we had to make some last minute scheduling changes, which I really appreciated. Homer came home happy and healthy, and I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. I’d definitely book with Emma again and wish her all the best as she continues with Rover!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own three dogs since they were puppies, including feeding, walking, bathing, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and providing daily attention and exercise. Through my Veterinary Assistant (VA) course, I also gained foundational knowledge in animal handling, safety, hygiene, and pet wellness. I am patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits comfortably into my daily routine since I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dogs every day. I’m used to feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Being around animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so making time for pet care feels very natural to me. At home, I care for my own dogs with daily walks, playtime, cleaning, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs to keep them happy and healthy. For clients, I would provide the same level of care and attention through walks and daycare. I aim to create a calm, safe, and caring environment where pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important routines, patience, and supervision are when caring for someone else’s pet.
“Our dog is a bit hyper one and Jacqueline made him comfortable in no time. I got updates throughout the days and Ollie seems happy. Will definitely book again for future needs. Highly recommended.”
“Ezra was amazing with my puppy Venom. She sent plenty of updates and was very flexible about picking him up / dropping him off. My pup came home all smiles and was tired after a fun day of day care. Highly recommend her to anyone else looking for day care for their pup.”
“Diem took great care of my dog—very kind, genuine, and clearly someone who really loves dogs. She has a secure fenced setup (including the front/driveway area), which made me feel comfortable right away. She showed my dog a lot of love and even took the time to ask about what she could eat because she wanted to give her something extra, which I really appreciated. By the end, my dog felt completely at home. Honestly, I think my dog was a little sad to leave… and I can’t say I blame her. Would definitely book again.”
“We have a 2 year old, dog reactive, Great Pyrenees mix. Given her large size and energy level, it can be challenging to find someone we feel is competent in handling our Stella. We had a meet and greet with Alicia and it went very well. Alicia had a very calm and confident demeanor. Stella warmed up to her very quickly. Alicia runs a structured boarding daycare where dogs need to be potty and crate trained. This type of structure is good for dogs that need their own space or even young dogs that need to learn to turn on and off. Alicia sent me updates and pictures throughout the day which was very reassuring. Drop off and pickup times were very flexible which is perfect for my crazy work schedule. Stella was very calm and relaxed when I picked her up. She came home and took a nap right away, so I know she was mentally and physically exhausted from the day. Overall, we highly recommend Alicia and will definitely be back for doggy daycare and overnight boarding.”
“Melissa & Tommy are genuinely such good to honest animal loving people. We are so appreciative of their patience and calm demeanor around our furbabies. Our furbabies are a lot to handle. One of them has high anxiety to loud sounds, movements, strangers and the little one is a snuggly rascal. But Melissa & Tommy handled and cared for them with so much love. We are grateful. They also provided tons of updates. We appreciate that a lot! Thank you so much!!”

“Sepia is a wonderful sitter. She provided lots of pictures and videos during Tala’s 2 days of daycare. She’s also very flexible when it comes to every dog’s needs. We would love to book with Sepia again in the future.”
About: I care for a small group at a time so each dog gets plenty of supervision, play, and rest. I’m very patient with shy, anxious, and senior dogs, and I’m experienced with puppies—including potty routines, basic manners, and crate training support.

Safety and communication are a top priority for me, and I always keep owners updated so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, play sessions, walks, and rest periods to make sure each pet gets consistent care and attention throughout the day.

“I needed a sitter at the last minute and Tracy & Vincent stepped up. Upon first impressions they are nice and easy going. My dog, Kiki, was nervous when I dropped her off as any dog would be when in an unfamiliar environment, but when I picked her up, she seemed happy and calm. Tracy and Vincent did exactly as I asked and even sent me some photos to update. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“I’m so grateful I found her! I needed a sitter at the last minute due to an emergency and wasn’t have the opportunity to do the usual meet-and-greet beforehand. She understood my situation right away from my message and graciously agreed to help. From the moment Snow arrived, I could tell she was in caring hands. Not only did she take wonderful care of her, but her husband was also involved and treated Snow with so much love and attention. They played with her, chased her around, kept her engaged, and truly made her feel like part of their family. Snow is house-trained but had an accident on their carpet. They were incredibly understanding and kind about it, and never made me feel uncomfortable or worried. I received regular photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her two dogs are also adorable, friendly, and welcoming. Snow absolutely loved being there and looked so happy in every picture. It genuinely felt like she was on her own little vacation! Finding someone who treats your pet / baby like family is rare, and that’s exactly what they did. I would trust them with Snow again without hesitation and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, compassionate, and reliable sitter.”
“Rachel and her husband are amazing! They are welcoming and you can tell they really LOVE fur babies! They took photos and kept me in the loop on how my pup was engaging with their dogs. My pup had a fun time and he was definitely tuckered out from the playtime. I will definitely book with them again! A+^”

I can also crate your pup if needed! Can’t wait to meet your babies! Bring on the barn animals too! Chickens, Ducks, Goats, Bunnies, house birds of all sizes!
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for over 30 years and have several years of experience pet sitting for friends and family. Since 2019, I’ve also been a Doggy Day Out volunteer with the Humane Society of Silicon Valley, taking dogs of all sizes on walks, hikes, and park adventures for exercise, socialization, and fun. I treat every pet like my own, with lots of love, patience, and attention. 👉 Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels happy and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly open, so I have plenty of time to care for and give plenty of attention to your pets most days and times. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my first priority. In your home, I follow your routines so your furry friend feels comfortable and secure. Dogs always get safe, leashed walks and lots of attention, while cats get clean litter, fresh food/water, and the level of play or cuddles they enjoy. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and care—so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾
About: I’ve been the go-to pet person in my circle for years! Friends, family, and neighbors call me when they need someone reliable, patient, and genuinely excited to hang out with their pets. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnights, or keeping up with detailed routines, I take pride in making pets feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and emotional awareness I bring. As an empath, I don’t just “watch” pets, I learn their personalities. Are they high-energy zoomie champions? Velcro dogs? Secret snack negotiators? I adjust my care style to fit *them* so they stay happy and stress-free. I have experience with puppies who need structure, consistency, and patience (potty training, leash manners, crate routines), as well as senior dogs who deserve a slower pace, gentle handling, and medication support. I’m also very comfortable with anxious or shy pets and use calm, positive approaches to build trust at their speed. My goal is simple: happy pets, lots of tail wags, and owners who can relax knowing their furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Plus, you’ll always get photo updates because I know being away is the hardest part :) My schedule is thoughtfully balanced between two of my personal businesses—pet care and swim instruction. I’m a professional swim instructor during parts of the day, which means I may be in the water or teaching lessons for a few hours at a time, depending on the day of the week. Because of this, I build my pet care schedule very intentionally to make sure every animal in my care gets consistent attention, exercise, and quality time. Pet care isn’t just something I “fit in”—it’s a core part of my work and something I genuinely care about. Balancing both businesses allows me to stay active, responsible, and fully present in the care I provide. My care style really comes down to one thing: keeping pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine, just with me stepping in as their temporary human. In a client’s home, I treat your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, medications, play routines, and any “house rules” your pet knows (or thinks they can bend). I keep things clean, calm, and secure so your pet feels safe in their familiar environment. If pets are staying in my home, they get a cozy, supervised environment with lots of attention, exercise, and downtime based on their energy level. I make sure introductions, rest spaces, and routines are handled thoughtfully so everyone feels comfortable. I'll most likely end up snuggling your pet too! :)
About: I’m good with the basics like feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning up after them, but I also make sure they’re getting attention and feeling comfortable while you’re gone. I try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible so they don’t feel stressed. I’ll keep you updated with pictures. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I plan my schedule around visits to make sure pets are fed, walked, and given attention on time. I’m consistent, flexible, and make sure each pet gets the care they need. I follow each pet’s routine to keep things consistent, feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, and cleaning up after them. I make sure they feel comfortable, give them attention based on their personality, and keep you updated while you’re away.
“Aivy was a great dog walker for our leash reactive pup. She was patient and provided me with feedback about each walk. She worked with Cleo’s reactivity issues and made a ton of progress with our sweet girl. I will definitely hire her again!”
About: What sets me apart is the love and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I go the extra mile with walks, playtime, and snuggles, while keeping owners updated with regular pictures and messages. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority. I work part time, which gives me plenty of free time to care for pets. I’m available most mornings, making it easy to schedule walks, drop-ins, or cuddles when your pets need them most. I’m also flexible and can adjust to fit your pet’s routine, especially during weekdays and weekends. If pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel comfortable and part of the family—lots of playtime, walks, and snuggles. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. I always keep things clean, stick to feeding schedules, and send updates so you don’t have to worry while you’re away.
About: I am blessed to have been able to grow up with dogs. They are my world. From puppy care to senior care, I can promise you the best for your loved ones. I work part-time and would love to get the opportunity to take care of your loved ones. Due to the nature of my job, from weekdays to weekends my availability is very open. I am so excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! With years of experience in dog walking, feeding, and training, I understand that pets need proper love and care to thrive. I prioritize creating a safe environment that keeps your babies stress-free. I am very communicative and will adhere to their usual routines while taking lots of pictures so you are confident in my care for them!

“Jacqueline was great. She has excellent communication and you can see clearly that she loves animals. My dog tends to get nervous being away from me and she was very attentive to my dog's needs. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Hachi had a great time there! Alicia was very accommodating and helpful when answering questions. Would definitely recommend her for anyone who wants to board their dogs. She even helped Hachi with his meds which is a big help. Thanks again Alicia!”
“Luna and Bella had a great stay with Diem’s family. They were cared for and loved! We will definitely be back with Diem! Loved all the updates and reassuring texts. Thank you for taking great care of our pups, they had a blast!”
“This was the very first time I’ve ever left my 10 year old dog, Coco with anyone and I was honestly so nervous. But Son was absolutely amazing and made the entire experience so comforting for both of us. From the beginning, communication was great and we felt completely comfortable leaving Coco in his care. It was obvious she received lots of attention, love, and care during her stay. The updates and care he provided gave me so much peace of mind. Coco came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like family.”
“Always a pleasure to have Juliana take care of my senior dog. She's very caring and attentive to his needs and medication schedule. She also sends plenty of pictures and updates!”
“It’s such a relief knowing that Ollie is being so well loved and cared for while we’re away. Thank you again, Melissa and Tommy, we really appreciate you!”
“If you have a doodle, you know they are a species of their own. And Sepia's home is the best place for them. She is the most caring, kind and gentle dog sitter I met. She treats them as their own and cares for them as a pro. She sent tons of videos and photos everyday and took care of all his needs. We feel like Indigo had the best time ever with his aunty and cousin and made a lot of wonderful new friends. Even when she takes more than a dog a the time, she is very thorough in her interview process and only doggies that matches will stay together. We all are so grateful we found her and I know our pup loooooves her too!”
“Christopher and his wife took such great care of our dog Zoey while we were away. We got text updates on how she was doing and photos and videos too! It helped us feel at ease knowing she was well taken care of. The meet and greet before hand helped to confirm our decision to book with them and we are so glad we did!”
“Anto is an absolute best person. She loves dogs and keeps them just like her own, that’s all you expect from someone you’re leaving your pet to. She gave me timely updates, was accommodating with Alfys habits and provided the right kind of play and exercise. I would definitely recommend her.”

I am highly observant, reliable, and strictly follow specific care instructions to ensure your pet’s well-being and happiness at all times.

About: I care for a small group at a time so each dog gets plenty of supervision, play, and rest. I’m very patient with shy, anxious, and senior dogs, and I’m experienced with puppies—including potty routines, basic manners, and crate training support. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, energy level, and comfort, and I adjust care as needed. Safety and communication are a top priority for me, and I always keep owners updated so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, play sessions, walks, and rest periods to make sure each pet gets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I work from home, which allows me to closely supervise pets, keep them on their normal routines, and adjust care based on their energy level or needs. This consistency helps pets feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home, pets enjoy supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, walks, and safe play in my fenced backyard, along with plenty of rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and provide updates so owners can feel confident their pet is well cared for.
“My boy Hank enjoyed his stay very much. I am very appreciative of the constant updates and with helping convenience pick up and drop off. Very helpful. I appreciate her and if I ever need some hoarding I will be requesting again.”
“My husky girl Momo boarded two nights with Sofiya. She sends me greetings with pictures every morning, and updates, videos during the day. I can tell Momo had a lot of fun with her family. Really appreciate for all the love, care, and the bath that she gave to Momo. Will definitely come back and boarded with her again.🥰”
“Qi took amazing care of our dogs, Pebbles and Luna, while we were away. Both of our girls are on the anxious side, so finding someone we trust is incredibly important. Qi was patient, attentive, and made them feel comfortable and cared for. We also appreciated how thoughtfully she manages the dogs in her care. Even though she watches multiple dogs, she carefully groups dogs that get along well and makes sure everyone has a safe, positive experience. Her home is very clean and well-maintained, which gave us additional peace of mind. Qi was also fantastic with communication, sending frequent photos and videos so we could see how Pebbles and Luna were doing. We always felt informed and reassured. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Best boarding experience ever! She took such great care of Turbo and Yoyo and sent tons of photos and updates. She even made homemade treats for them! we felt completely at ease leaving our pups with her. Highly recommend!”
“Rachel and her husband took good care of our dog, Bean. Bean certainly enjoyed the friendship with their dogs too. Thank very much for taking care of Bean during our vacation.”
“Leo was so happy to go back, which says everything! They took great care of him with timely updates, regular walks, and lots of playtime. The yard is nice and very dog-friendly, giving the dogs a comfortable space to play. Luna and Reki are super friendly and started playing with Leo right away, which made him feel at ease instantly. We really appreciated the photos and updates — it kept us completely stress-free knowing how his day was going. They were also very attentive to his food routine and followed all our specific instructions. We’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you for taking such good care of Leo!”
“Jeanette and her family were great with Nessie! We appreciated all of the pupdates that showed her having fun and being spoiled. She came back a very happy dog from all the cuddles, walks, and playtime :) I would highly recommend Jeanette!”
“We booked with Jade because our regular sitter was out of town, but she (and her husband) may become our go to! She did a thorough meet and greet the day after we contacted her, and asked tons of great questions. She walked us through her home and yard so we saw where the pups would be (very uncommon in my experience, so I appreciated it). Their home was neat, nothing extra that the pups would get into potentially. I loved that they (and their beds) came home clean, there was only 1 additional dog (other than their 2 small ones) in their care, and they kept to our pups regular schedule. Jade and her husband take a very professional approach to their care, even though they both work and Rover is not their main gig. Thank you Jade, I’m glad we kept looking and found you. 😊 the pups loved hanging with them.”
