We had such a wonderful experience with Megha and his family! They are extremely responsive and communicative, and they clearly love dogs. We received tons of photos and videos, which made us feel at ease the whole time. They were very thorough, took our dog on plenty of walks, and gave her lots of attention. Truly a wonderful family of dog lovers. Don’t look any further, we’ll definitely book with them every time again!

This is our first ever dog care experience and Quang was quickly responsive to my needs for last minutes plans. I have a super high energy GSP and and an elderly Porky. He cared for both needs and they returned home tired and happy. I also had to extend the time for care and he helped make that process very smooth. Thank you Quang! I’ll reach out for the next trip.

Juliana was amazing. My dog, Pumpkin, is a senior pup who can be very sad when I leave her at boarding. She walked right into Juliana's and gelt comfortable - this was a positive sign. Juliana sent updates and pictures while we were gone. There a cold snap during Pumpkin's time, and Juliana had her in a sweater, let her sit curled up in a blanket on the couch, and I could see how relaxed Pumpkin was. The next time I leave town, I know who I will be entrusting to cate for Pumpkin. Thank you again Juliana!

Everything went smoothly despite my puppy’s high energy. Rachel and her husband offered a meet and greet, were curious about rules I have for my pet so they could adhere to them too, they gave her great exercise and an opportunity to play with their dogs, they are experienced and have a safe home, and it seems like my puppy just really liked it there. She came back tired and happy. I would rebook.

Bruno is an incredibly responsible and caring sitter. He sent me daily updates about my dog, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. At first, I was a little unsure about boarding since my dog is older and has a sensitive temperament, but Bruno was patient, professional, and very attentive. He carefully followed all the daily routines and notes I had provided, which I really appreciated. I could tell my dog was well taken care of and comfortable with him. His dog Jojo is super friendly and can get along well with other dogs. I highly recommend Bruno to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

Jacqueline took exceptional care of our pup, Luka, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every picture that Luka was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Luka is a Belgian Malinois, so he has a lot of energy and requires plenty of physical and mental engagement. Jacqueline did a wonderful job meeting his needs while also making him feel at home. Their home is beautiful, with a secure backyard and plenty of toys for the dogs to enjoy. One of the coolest parts of his stay was that Luka learned to use a doggie door for the first time. It gave him the freedom to come and go into the yard as needed, and I know that also makes things easier for the family caring for the dogs. Although this was only a short stay, Jacqueline followed all of our care instructions, including Luka’s feeding routine, and treated him like one of her own. One thoughtful detail that really stood out was how carefully they packed all of Luka’s belongings exactly the way we had brought them. It wasn’t something they had to do, but it showed how much care and attention they put into everything. We truly appreciate the excellent care Luka received and will absolutely be booking with Jacqueline again. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive sitter.

Our dog seemed completely relaxed and comfortable at her house. Minh was welcoming from the initial consultation, and her passion for dogs was clear from the start. When our plans unexpectedly changed and we had to extend the booking, she was incredibly flexible and understanding. Thank you so much, Minh!

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats in my home for as long as I can remember. I am currently trying to fill a pet void by helping out within my neighborhood until I can commit to having one of my own. I have always felt a special connection with pets and adore making them feel loved and cared for. I’m a part-time nurse, which gives me some extra days off—and I can’t think of a better way to spend them than hanging out with your pets! I’ve always been an animal lover and know how much our pets truly become part of the family. I’d love to fill some of my downtime helping you feel confident that your favorite furry family members are getting plenty of love, attention, walks, cuddles, and company while you’re away. I’ve always had a special connection with animals—and honestly, I usually prefer their company to humans! 😂 I’m naturally caring, patient, attentive, and pretty good at noticing the little things, so I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I’ll care for them like they’re my own, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, extra time outside, a little more patience with a nervous pet, or plenty of cuddles and company. Most of all, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your favorite family member is in loving, dependable hands while you’re away.

About: Hello! I am a cat lover and parent to two cats of my own, so I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, boundaries, and needs. I’m completely comfortable caring for shy, nervous, spicy, or “mean” cats. I’m not intimidated by cats who hiss, swat, growl, or act tough, and I am experienced at reading their body language to understand when they’re communicating “give me space” versus when they’re genuinely uncomfortable or feeling threatened. I respect cats boundaries and personal space and will always work around their comfort level rather than forcing interactions. I understand that some cats need time to warm up. I am patient and happy to let them come to me on their own terms. If a cat prefers to hide, observe from a distance, or have minimal handling, i’m perfectly happy to respect that. I am also not bothered by the less glamorous parts of cat care. Accidents, pee, poop, vomit, scratches, and occasionally getting bit doesn’t scare me away. I understand that these things can happen, especially when a cat is scared, stressed, or communicating that they’ve had enough. My priority is always to keep them safe, comfortable, and cared for without judgement. Whether your cat is cuddly, shy, independent, sassy, or a little spicy, I’ll meet them where they are and give them the patience, respect, and love they deserve.

About: I fully understand that when I’m caring for your cat, I am not “in charge”: I am simply staff. I have experience with single cats and multi-cat households, and I’m very attentive to everyone’s routines, territories, and personal opinions (especially the strong ones). I respect boundaries, never force attention, and allow cats to decide if I’m worthy of interaction that day. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring appetite and behavior, and yes, I take litter box cleaning very seriously. Deep cleans, odor control, and maintaining a fresh royal restroom is always part of my service.

About: Hello! My name is Stephanie! I have owned dogs and pets my whole life and I absolutely love animals. I only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention, love, and care during their stay. I have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is super friendly and loves making new friends! I work remotely, so I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for overnight boarding and daycare. I especially love working with recurring families so I can build a relationship with you and your furry friend and help them feel comfortable and at home during every stay. I’m a very outdoorsy person and love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s going to the park, exploring a dog-friendly trail, or enjoying a nice long walk. We also have a yard for plenty of playtime and outdoor fun! I can’t wait to meet you and give your pup a fun, loving, and personalized home-away-from-home! 🐶💕 I work remote and have a flexible schedule over the week so I will be able to spend all day with your best friend and give them all the love and attention they need while you are away! Your pup will be going on walks throughout the day or a trip to the dog park. I would prefer to watch your pet in my own home but am also open to pet sitting and can make arrangements to visit your pet.

Teresa texted us pictures during his stay showing us what a good time he was having. The second day we brought him over he was so excited he couldn't wait to get to the front door. Thanks again for taking good care of our little guy and hopefully, Capo will see you all again soon!!

I was anxious about how she would do without me, but Megha and Avi made her feel right at home. They kept me updated about her with pics and videos. Gave me a report when I went to pick her up which was insightful. She had such a great time, and even came home with a bandanna! I would definitely go back with them and recommend them to other pet parents

I have had a dog for 14 years of my life, his name was Panda. I am very excited to board dogs in my home and give them a healthy and playful environment. I am also excited to take them on long walks. I volunteered at Aurora Animal Shelter for 2 years and learnt to give behavioural training for kittens/cats. I fostered more than 6 cats apart from my own 2 cats for the past 1 year. I currently work from home. I am available to walk your dog every 2 hours if needed. Also, I can feed meds to your cat if required. I want to give your pet the special attention it needs. I can accommodate my schedule according to your pet's demands. I promise to give them a happy and peaceful environment.

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: Hello! My name is Stephanie! I have owned dogs and pets my whole life and I absolutely love animals. I only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention, love, and care during their stay. I have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is super friendly and loves making new friends! I work remotely, so I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for overnight boarding and daycare. I especially love working with recurring families so I can build a relationship with you and your furry friend and help them feel comfortable and at home during every stay. I’m a very outdoorsy person and love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s going to the park, exploring a dog-friendly trail, or enjoying a nice long walk. We also have a yard for plenty of playtime and outdoor fun! I can’t wait to meet you and give your pup a fun, loving, and personalized home-away-from-home! 🐶💕 I work remote and have a flexible schedule over the week so I will be able to spend all day with your best friend and give them all the love and attention they need while you are away! Your pup will be going on walks throughout the day or a trip to the dog park. I would prefer to watch your pet in my own home but am also open to pet sitting and can make arrangements to visit your pet.

I’m active and happy to go on long walks, runs, or just enjoy cozy cuddle time—whatever your dog loves most.

Clients appreciate my honesty, reliability, and the true joy I find in spending time with their pets. I’m here to make sure your fur kids feel safe, happy, and adored while you’re away. I also have experience with senior dogs. I work remotely full-time and can easily accommodate your dog’s routine into my schedule! Routines were always important to me as a previous dog owner so I completely understand how impactful they can be :) I have a townhome with a small fenced yard and two patios. I prefer dogs that can come stay with me as I’m also raising a little human (dogs must be kid friendly please). All our trash cans have clips to keep them closed and all toys are kept in an enclosed bin.

I want to give a huge thank you to Bruno and his fiancée for taking such amazing care of my husky, Nova, especially on such short notice! From the moment I reached out, Bruno’s communication was clear, professional, and thoughtful. He asked about Nova’s allergies, schedule, and any personal preferences to make sure she’d feel comfortable and safe throughout the day. Within the first hour, I received pictures and a video of Nova walking and playing happily with their sweet pup, Jojo. Throughout the day, Bruno continued to send updates, pictures, and videos, in total, I received 15 photos and 4 videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that Nova was not only being watched, but truly cared for. They even gave her snacks and a fun new topping on her food to make her feel extra special. On top of that, Bruno made sure to update Nova’s Rover report with a detailed summary: two long walks, potty breaks, food and water intake, every detail was covered. To top it all off, at the end of the visit, Nova went home with a goody bag and so much love. It genuinely felt like she had a mini vacation of her own. 💛 If you’re looking for responsible, loving, and attentive care for your furry friend, I can’t recommend Bruno and his fiancé enough. They treat your pup like family and make the whole experience stress-free and joyful. I will absolutely bring Nova back again, this is the kind of care every fur friend deserves!

About: Hi! I’m Pei :) Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets, and I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, routines, and quirks. I previously cared for a friend’s dog for several weeks and truly enjoyed being part of their daily routine. Whether it was walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I loved making sure they felt happy, safe, and loved while their owner was away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide a calm, comfortable, and loving environment where your dog feels like part of the family. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated with photos, and treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a flexible schedule and spend much of my time at home. I genuinely enjoy having pets around, whether we're going for walks, relaxing together, or simply keeping each other company throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection while staying with me. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends and am happy to send regular photo updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful, which is why creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment is my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they can feel at home while you're away. Whether your dog is playful, shy, energetic, or prefers a quiet space, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention that's right for them. I treat every pet like family and always provide regular updates, photos, and clear communication for complete peace of mind.

So glad we found Courtney! My dog, Ivy, and I did a Meet & Greet and walked around the block. Ivy can be a handful on the leash, but Courtney did a great job managing her energy and pulling. We had a nice chat while walking together, and it’s clear Courtney has a natural way with dogs. Ivy liked her so much she was ready to head off on a longer walk without me! She's responsive, easy to talk to, and definitely someone I trust. I felt completely comfortable leaving Ivy in her care and have added her to my 'favorites' list for future walks.

About: Hello! My name is Olivia, I’m an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver with a lifelong love for animals. I walk around 15,000 steps a day, so I have no issue keeping up with active animals! I have two cats of my own and have fostered dogs of all sizes and personalities, from big to small ones. Through my experience and extensive research, I am very knowledgeable about pet body language and how to safely and calmly handle animals in a variety of situations. This also includes not being scared of them and knowing when animals are just trying to play! I am comfortable with caring for less traditional pets as well, including bunnies, reptiles, or other small animals. I’m not shy with the more gross parts of pet care such as accidents, vomit, pee, all kinds of messes are part of caring for animals and it’s something I’m comfortable to do! I’m happy to help your pet and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. I believe every animal deserves patience, understanding, and love. Behavior is a form of communication and even when a pet is scared, anxious, reactive, or difficult, there is always a reason behind it and I take time to understand that reason, and meet each animal where they are. My Goal is to make every pet feel safe, respected, loved and comfortable while in my care! I currently work part-time and go to school part-time. My school schedule is currently Mondays from 10:45 am-12:05 pm, and Wednesdays from 10:45am - 12:05pm, as well as 3:15 pm - 4:35 pm. For my work schedule, my start times vary from 3pm to 6pm, and I consistently get Tuesdays & Thursdays off. 7 am is my usual wake up time, so I have a lot of time throughout the week to care for your animals! I do my best to keep the pets normal routine and make them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I take time to learn each pets personality, preferences, habits, and boundaries, so I can care for them in the way that works best for them. I’m very patient and adaptable, I am also creative when a pet is hesitant or difficult to work with. If I need to distract a pet, redirect their attention, get them to take something they don’t want to take, or encourage them to do something they don’t want to do, I am good at finding solutions that work with their personality, rather than forcing them. After learning an animal’s behaviors and personality, I usually adjust my approach based on that. I’m happy to follow their lead and make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise, enrichment, affection, and downtime. I also make it a point to keep the home clean and treat it with the same respect I would my own. I’m happy to clean up accidents or messes and make sure everything is in order when I leave. I keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats in my home for as long as I can remember. I am currently trying to fill a pet void by helping out within my neighborhood until I can commit to having one of my own. I have always felt a special connection with pets and adore making them feel loved and cared for. I’m a part-time nurse, which gives me some extra days off—and I can’t think of a better way to spend them than hanging out with your pets! I’ve always been an animal lover and know how much our pets truly become part of the family. I’d love to fill some of my downtime helping you feel confident that your favorite furry family members are getting plenty of love, attention, walks, cuddles, and company while you’re away. I’ve always had a special connection with animals—and honestly, I usually prefer their company to humans! 😂 I’m naturally caring, patient, attentive, and pretty good at noticing the little things, so I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I’ll care for them like they’re my own, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, extra time outside, a little more patience with a nervous pet, or plenty of cuddles and company. Most of all, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your favorite family member is in loving, dependable hands while you’re away.

About: Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a cattle ranch in a small town in Utah, surrounded by animals of all kinds. From livestock and horses to chickens, goats, potbellied pigs, and multiple family dogs, caring for animals was simply a part of everyday life. Those experiences taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand the unique personalities and needs of different animals from an early age. As an adult, my passion for animals has only grown. I personally trained my own service dog, gaining valuable experience in obedience training, behavior management, consistency, and building strong bonds through trust and communication. Today, I share my home with three amazing dogs: my service dog and her two sisters. After close friends sadly passed away, I adopted her sisters so they could remain together. The girls have been inseparable since they were puppies, and watching their lifelong bond has deepened my appreciation for the emotional connections dogs form with one another. With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, I understand that every pet is unique. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, structured routines, or plenty of affection, I provide attentive, dependable care and treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. Pet care is my daily life. With open availablity and work from home it works out great for me as a bay area photographer it gives me the time to spend with the pups with minimal time away. right now, I am taking care of clients for babies at their homes taking them for walks to their favorite places hikes and if the client wants play dates with my girls following feeding and medication requirements and needs for each individual Pup

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 have Animal Shelter and Pet Store experience. I have had pets all of my adult life and sincerely believe that they are the best enrichment of human lives. I have medication experience and have been trained to be cautious of medical conditions. I can be trusted to act fast for worst case scenarios (knock on wood). I know how to take the best care of pets with the knowledge I’ve learned from my own experiences over the years. I work full time at a dealership but, with enough notice I can make sure to be available for your pets when needed. I am available every evening after 7pm Tuesday - Saturday and all day Sundays and Mondays I have 2 cats, a free roaming rabbit and geckos at home with my partner. I love taking care of their individual needs and giving them treats and toys to make them happy.

About: Hello! My name is Stephanie! I have owned dogs and pets my whole life and I absolutely love animals. I only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention, love, and care during their stay. I have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is super friendly and loves making new friends! I work remotely, so I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for overnight boarding and daycare. I especially love working with recurring families so I can build a relationship with you and your furry friend and help them feel comfortable and at home during every stay. I’m a very outdoorsy person and love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s going to the park, exploring a dog-friendly trail, or enjoying a nice long walk. We also have a yard for plenty of playtime and outdoor fun! I can’t wait to meet you and give your pup a fun, loving, and personalized home-away-from-home! 🐶💕 I work remote and have a flexible schedule over the week so I will be able to spend all day with your best friend and give them all the love and attention they need while you are away! Your pup will be going on walks throughout the day or a trip to the dog park. I would prefer to watch your pet in my own home but am also open to pet sitting and can make arrangements to visit your pet.

This is our first ever dog care experience and Quang was quickly responsive to my needs for last minutes plans. I have a super high energy GSP and and an elderly Porky. He cared for both needs and they returned home tired and happy. I also had to extend the time for care and he helped make that process very smooth. Thank you Quang! I’ll reach out for the next trip.

Juliana was amazing. My dog, Pumpkin, is a senior pup who can be very sad when I leave her at boarding. She walked right into Juliana's and gelt comfortable - this was a positive sign. Juliana sent updates and pictures while we were gone. There a cold snap during Pumpkin's time, and Juliana had her in a sweater, let her sit curled up in a blanket on the couch, and I could see how relaxed Pumpkin was. The next time I leave town, I know who I will be entrusting to cate for Pumpkin. Thank you again Juliana!

Everything went smoothly despite my puppy’s high energy. Rachel and her husband offered a meet and greet, were curious about rules I have for my pet so they could adhere to them too, they gave her great exercise and an opportunity to play with their dogs, they are experienced and have a safe home, and it seems like my puppy just really liked it there. She came back tired and happy. I would rebook.

Bruno is an incredibly responsible and caring sitter. He sent me daily updates about my dog, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. At first, I was a little unsure about boarding since my dog is older and has a sensitive temperament, but Bruno was patient, professional, and very attentive. He carefully followed all the daily routines and notes I had provided, which I really appreciated. I could tell my dog was well taken care of and comfortable with him. His dog Jojo is super friendly and can get along well with other dogs. I highly recommend Bruno to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

I can't express how grateful I am for the exceptional care that Michael and Karri provided for my dog. From the moment I met them, it was clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt safe, happy, and loved during her stay. It was such a relief for me to know she was in such capable hands. Their attention to detail and affectionate approach truly made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend Michael and Karri to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet sitters. I will definitely choose them again in the future!

Jacqueline took exceptional care of our pup, Luka, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every picture that Luka was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Luka is a Belgian Malinois, so he has a lot of energy and requires plenty of physical and mental engagement. Jacqueline did a wonderful job meeting his needs while also making him feel at home. Their home is beautiful, with a secure backyard and plenty of toys for the dogs to enjoy. One of the coolest parts of his stay was that Luka learned to use a doggie door for the first time. It gave him the freedom to come and go into the yard as needed, and I know that also makes things easier for the family caring for the dogs. Although this was only a short stay, Jacqueline followed all of our care instructions, including Luka’s feeding routine, and treated him like one of her own. One thoughtful detail that really stood out was how carefully they packed all of Luka’s belongings exactly the way we had brought them. It wasn’t something they had to do, but it showed how much care and attention they put into everything. We truly appreciate the excellent care Luka received and will absolutely be booking with Jacqueline again. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive sitter.

Son and her family took great care of my 14 yr old dog Willow! I was able to relax during Thanksgiving knowing Willow was surrounded with company and cozy home. She came back much happier and relaxed compared to my last Rover experience with a different sitter. Willow didn’t want to leave when I picked her up, that’s how much she enjoyed her stay with Son.

Michael and Kris were awesome. Vito came back home happy. Vito is a reactive dog and we're always anxious dropping him off at a new sitter. But Michael and Kris made sure we went about our day stress free and Vito enjoys his stay.

Lily loves Jessa! ...and Jessa was so patient with Lily (who needs a little bit of time to acclimate to new environments for overnights). Jessa was great with Lily's eye drops also which are 3 different types that need to be administered twice a day. Jessa also sent lots of pictures and didn't hesitate to reach out with questions and responded to my messages promptly. Great environment for dogs with lots of fun walk options around her property. Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic experience with John. He watched our whippet, Benoît, over the 3 day weekend- who’s sometimes anxious when there’s changes, but John handled everything with so much care and calm. We really appreciated the regular updates and the sweet picture he sent; it made us feel completely at ease knowing Benoît was in good hands. When we came home, Benoît was relaxed and happy, which says everything.

Ben and his family took wonderful care of our two pups. We received plenty of updates, and both drop-off and pick-up were seamless. I was especially nervous about leaving one of our dogs, who can be quite anxious, but Ben’s knowledge and experience quickly put me at ease. Our pups came home happy, and we wouldn’t hesitate to send them back again.

We had a really great experience with Son while he took care of our dog, Bru. From day one, Son was super responsive and easy to communicate with, which made being away from Bru a lot less stressful. He checked in with us every day to let us know how Bru was doing — how his mood was, whether he was eating properly, and how he was settling in. As a pet parent, those little updates mean everything. Son was also very thoughtful and respectful about Bru’s routine. If there was ever a situation involving new food or any change, he always asked or kept us informed first, which we really appreciated. He was also incredibly accommodating, coordinating smoothly with a friend of ours for Bru’s drop-off and pickup, along with all his things. That flexibility made things so much easier for us. Most importantly, we could tell Bru was comfortable and well cared for. We truly loved the way Son looked after him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Son to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet boarding option. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future.

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.
