“Pranavi went above and beyond when taking care of my pups. She sent updates and photos throughout their stay, and made sure they had what they needed to feel at home. One of my pups wasn’t feeling well due to just coming off some medications, so Pranavi offered to feed her rice and yogurt to settle her stomach. It was so helpful to know she was well taken care of while I was away!”
“Irina and her family were absolutely amazing! This was my first time boarding my puppy who requires a lot of care and attention. I could tell my puppy was cared for and loved with Irina, which is all we want as pet parents. She sent regular photos/videos and updates to me that put me at ease. I would definitely go to her again :)”
“We left our two labs with Abe over nine days and he did a wonderful job. We have a two year-old male and a 10-year-old female. Abe came and picked them up and sent us pictures every day. We loved seeing the photos of the dogs playing, resting, rolling in the grass, and going on their walks. It gave us such peace of mind on our trip. It was also such a luxury to have them picked up and dropped off. I highly recommend Abe!”
“Derek and Leslie took care of Ozzy on the 4th of July. Ozzy is scared of fireworks and is also a big dog but they even let him pay on their bed for comfort and I really appreciate them for it!”
“Alexis and her partner are dog lovers. They took good care of our dog playing catch with him an endless number of times and made sure he was well fed. If we need a dog sitter, we will definitely book with them in the future.”
“Amy and Justin were amazing with Daisy! They were incredibly flexible and were able to take her a day earlier than originally planned, which we really appreciated. This was Daisy’s first stay with them after a meet-and-greet, and she had the best time and she came home completely worn out from all the fun! They sent photos and updates while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so happy we found them, and Daisy is already booked for a longer stay this summer. Highly recommend!”
“Sarswati and her family took such wonderful care of Sadie while we were away. She kept us updated every day with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Sadie was doing well. Her family is incredibly kind, welcoming, and truly knows how to care for dogs. It was clear that Sadie was loved and well cared for throughout her stay. We will absolutely be booking with Sarswati again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Sadie!”
“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“We had such a great experience with Zhuoya! They took such wonderful care of our dog and treated her with so much kindness and attention. We really appreciated all of the updates, pictures, and photos throughout her stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made everything so easy for us. Most importantly, our dog had such a great time and came home happy! It was clear she felt comfortable and loved while she was there. We would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”
“Shannon is amazing. It was our first time using Rover and she was the best person to experience this service. We love it. From getting updates (photos videos and messages) to answering all questions we had the whole time. Excellent service. Highly recommend Shannon, and we look forward having our Luna stay with Shannon and her family in the future. Thanks for everything.”
“Angela gave daily updates and was quick to respond to messages, which put me at ease when Bruce stayed with her and Jazzy for a week. I saw videos of him running happily outside and cuddling up next to her so I know he felt comfortable there!”
“Achara was Phenomenal. I cannot express the amount of gratitude and relief I feel boarding my dog with her. I received constant updates and pictures while I was out of town and tips since her dog is the same breed. She socialized my dog and I cannot tell you the amount of peace I felt knowing he was in great hands. I would HIGHLY recommend Achara and she really does go above and beyond!”
“Florene was fantastic! Our dog was there 5 nights and not only played hard with other dogs, but was loved & cared for. Our 1.5 yr old pup got some training while there as well which we appreciated! Cooper came back happy and tired which is great! We knew he was doing well the entire stay because photos and updates were sent frequently which we loved! Thank you!”
“Adrienne was absolutely amazing with our 9 week old pitty and we won't be looking to anyone else in the future! She treated her like she was her own and sent frequent updates, pics and even videos! Highly recommend her to anyone wanting amazing care for their fur baby.”
“I highly recommend Blaze! She provided excellent care, and kept me updated with photos and videos. My dog was comfortable with her and her childrens. (My dog is Anxious). If I have to do it again, I would do it in an heartbeat.”
“We couldn't be any happier with the care that Naiomie gave to our very spoiled fur baby, Colby Jaxx. This was the first time we've left him with someone other than family members. We were a hesitant about leaving him with someone we... or he... didn't know but after meeting Naiomie at drop off made us feel completely relaxed. We got daily pictures and videos of Colby Jaxx which were so awesome to see him interacting with her and the "friends" Colby Jaxx got to meet and play with. Along with the pics and videos, Naiomie would tell specifics about Colby... for example, he would cry a little at bedtime when he couldn't physically see her and she would let me know the different things she was doing to try to help him settle. Even as far as making it so that he could see into her room to know he wasn't alone. I would HIGHLY recommend using Naiomie. I know when we have a need again, she will be the first person we call. THANK YOU NAIOMIE! (p.s. Colby Jaxx misses you and his new friends). :)”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”

“Ashlin took good care of our cat while we went on vacation. We received pictures every visit and felt confident she was in good hands. She was thorough with good questions during the meet and greet. We will be using her services in the future.”
“Marleen is the best. This is the second time she has taken care of our cats and I’m sure there will be more times in the future. She is caring and a very good communicator, which I appreciate. I highly recommend her services.”
“Jessica is our favorite! Kind, thorough, prompt, knowledgeable and follows directions. I can tell that she really loves animals. We 💯 trust her with our 5 kitties, including our special needs senior. Thank you for the great communication while we’re away, Jessica!”
“Kenia never fails to amaze us! This was our first time having her come for drop in visits and she made sure to give both our cats love and send us pictures! She also makes sure to keep us in the loop and we love hiring her time and time again!”
“Geri took great care of our cats and kept us updated with things while we were away. I appreciated that she watered our plants outside even though I hadn’t requested that and I was happily surprised to come home to find them still alive and doing well despite the high temps we had. We will definitely be using Geri’s services again in the future!”
“Daniel was fantastic! This was the first time we’ve used Rover and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. 10/10 will be contacting Daniel again when we are in need of a sitter.”
“Lexie was kind, very timely, and obviously experienced with dogs (I say this because our dogs can be quite loud which can be off putting to those with no experience to loud, large dogs). She followed instructions to a tee and our dogs immediately got along well. Will definitely reach out again for future pet services!”
“This was our first experience with Rover and we were delighted. Danielle is professional, resourceful, reliable, kind hearted, and she did a superb job taking care of our cat. She kept clear communication going with us the whole time, which we appreciated. We will gladly ask for her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve been pet and house sitting for over 15 years, starting with family friends, track coaches, and their networks, which naturally grew into caring for their clients’ homes and pets as well. Most of my work has come through referrals, which I take as a huge compliment and reflection of the trust I build with both pets and their owners. I’m experienced with cats and dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m also comfortable maintaining routines, administering basic medications, and providing a calm, consistent environment while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of care and respect I bring into your home. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely attentive to each pet’s personality and needs. I aim to make your pet feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible so you can travel or work without stress. I work full-time remotely with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. My flexibility also means I can adapt to your pet’s specific schedule, whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening routines. When I’m house sitting, or visiting for a shorter time, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine and environment as consistent and stress-free as possible. I take the responsibility of being in your home very seriously. I’m respectful, clean, and treat your space with the same care I would my own. I’m attentive to details like locking doors, maintaining a safe environment, and following any specific instructions you provide. I’m also happy to help with small household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping your home in order so you can return to everything just as you left it. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Gladys was amazing! She went above and beyond for Oreo. She was so considerate, asked me how much I would like to be updated per day, shared how Oreo was doing physically and emotionally (Oreo was so comfortable and happy there). All of the items I dropped off with Oreo were cleaned and returned perfectly. Gladys even asked if Oreo could have some of her Churu treats. So kind! Thank you Gladys!”
“Claudia does a great job taking care of our cat Boots. She does a great job keeping us informed awhile we are gone. We feel comfortable leaving him knowing he is in good hands with Claudia.”
About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats who need extra attention and patience. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and relaxed in their own environment. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications when needed, providing playtime, and giving plenty of affection while respecting each cat’s boundaries. I have also cared for shy, anxious, and elderly cats, making sure they receive the attention and care they need while their owners are away. My goal is to keep your cat happy, comfortable, and stress-free, while giving you peace of mind knowing they are in caring and responsible hands.

“Abraham took exceptional care of my dogs, Raven and Kisses, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, it was clear that Abraham has a real passion for dogs. I was nervous at first because my bully doesn’t get along with other dogs to well and my chihuahua is very picky with people but He was attentive, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were comfortable and well cared for while I was away. I will definitely be booking with him again.”
“Irina is a lifesaver! I reached out at the last minute the night before, and she responded immediately, accommodating our needs. I have two small senior dogs, and she was very attentive to them. She sent me videos and photos of them throughout the entire sitting. I felt very relieved knowing my babies were safe and at peace. We will definitely hire Irina again for all our future sitting needs.”
“Bella has stayed with Amy &Justin now twice. And I am absolutely thrilled. She’s very relaxed when I pick her up so I know she had a good experience. Amy &Justin are a great team and communicate well. Bella loves kids so I’m sure she gets lots of love from their children. I feel such a relief finding Amy &Justin. They live close to me and they treat my dog like family. What more can you ask?”
“Julie was welcoming in our meet and great. She showed me her doggycare area and told me details about taking care of dogs. There seems to be a lot, but they're all behaving reasonably well. I wasn't quite sure my pug would do well, but he fit in just fine. Her other caretaker, Diante (sp?) was also welcoming. Overall, a great daycare.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Alexis and her family. Bonnie loved spending the day playing with the kids and other dogs. Communication with Alexis was also great - we’d happily book again!”
“Florence is the best!!! She took amazing care of my boy Milo. She also sent us lots pictures throughout the day. It was such a great experience, we will definitely be taking Milo back to hang out with Florence and her pups.”
About: Hello there! My name is Brenda and I am new to the Greater Sacramento area. Before moving to Rancho Cordova I volunteered at the Inland Valley Humane Society and SPCA. I've always been an animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets and helping care for family and friends' pets. I'm comfortable with different personalities and understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and quirks. I'm naturally very patient and attentive with animals, and I genuinely enjoy to know their personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers to relax and cuddle, I'm happy to meet them where they're at and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. My schedule is very flexible right now, so I have plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or boarding — mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I may eventually pick up part-time work, but even then I’d still have consistent time set aside for pet care. There’s also a park right across the street from my apartment, so daily walks and playtime are easy to build into the routine. I enjoy having a reason to get outside, stay active, and spend time with animals, so walks and drop-in visits fit really naturally into my day. I am also able to plan my schedule around your pet's routine and make sure they get the attention and care they need rather than feeling like they're just being checked off my list. Your pets safety and comfort are my biggest priorities. I always want pets to feel secure and comfortable in their environment. I live in an apartment with two cats of my own so I don’t currently have dogs at home — just a calm, clean space I keep consistent for any pet staying with me. My cats are used to visitors and generally easygoing, but I’m happy to talk through introductions ahead of time if that matters for your pet. There’s a park directly across the street, which makes it easy to get dogs outside for exercise multiple times a day. I'm respectful of your home, your pet's normal routine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow feeding and medication instructions when needed, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual with your pet. Most importantly, I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I'll treat them with the same patience and care I could want for my own.
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 8, from sm to med dogs. Friends call on me to watch their dogs at their house or mine.

I have a fenced yard and doggy doors, I have stayed at friends to pet sit also had dog stay at my house. Have beds.
“Blaze is absolutely THE BEST! I needed someone last minute and she was available and took amazing care of my dog. He helped her do all the fam chores this morning, met a bunch of new animals and loved her kids. Would recommend 1000%”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, and I started caring for them on my own at age 10. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their beloved pets—whether it’s for a daily walk, a good bath, or a weekend full of cuddles. I’ve worked with playful puppies, gentle seniors, and everything in between, always taking the time to understand each dog’s personality so they feel safe, loved, and right at home.

If needed, I can easily crate your dog and follow any special care instructions you provide. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved—just like they would at home.

They are definitely in their happy place! 🐶💜🐶 Brian is the best!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Hong truly goes above and beyond - she sent thoughtful updates with photos, took my dog on regular walks, and made me feel at ease while we were away.

“I highly recommend using Abraham. He was able to help with our pup on a last second trip. Abraham attended to our dog for 3 days walking him, feeding him, introducing him to his dogs and playing with him. He sent me daily updates and pictures. Thank you Abraham for providing us peace of mind.”
About: We are devoted dog enthusiasts! Having grown up with dogs and many other pets, we welcome your dog as family and care for them as we would our own. Our charming pugs greet all dogs and love playing together in our enclosed yard, reached through a pet door. We understand both puppies and older dogs—one of our pugs is 15 years old, and we’ve nurtured our companions since infancy. We both work from home so all dogs will have ongoing attention day in/day out. Our pugs are allowed on our furniture, but I will abide with guests' home rules, so no bad behaviors will be learned, but will be spoiled with walks, treats and plenty of love and attention. We are happy to have a meet and greet prior to boarding for added peace-of-mind for dog parents. While with us, your fur babies will be treated like they are part of our family.
“Carmen did a great job walking my pup! She sent me lots of photos and kept me updated throughout the walk. She was very communicative and took great care of my pup. Thank you so much!”
About: As someone who grew up with dogs, both small and large, I've learned what it takes to make sure the puppies are well cared for, between giving them the right food, making sure they go on walks, and grooming. Our pets are our best friends and so we should take the greatest care of them, and I'm willing to do that for all animals alike. I'm currently a part time worker both on weekends and weekdays and have lots of time to dedicate to taking care of pets. The only time I would not be able to offer my services is dueing weekends. In my home, I have a fenced yard to allow for our big huskies to have space to play and run, offering them toys that I know would keep them entertained. I also make sure to clean my dogs and ensure they eat healthily.
“Oreo and I so appreciate Amanda and Hector’s help during these beginning weeks of the new school year! I know Oreo looks forward to going on his lunch potty breaks with Hector where he can sniff to his heart’s content. 🐕 💜 🥰 We truly appreciate Hector’s flexibility when he comes a bit earlier some days due to the hotter weather or Oreo’s needs. We will definitely be requesting Amanda & Hector again!”
“Geri is amazing! Great with my dog and is very experienced and professional! My little guy loves having Geri over for check ups and walks! Highly recommend Geri for your pet needs.”

“Jessica is amazing! She has walked our 2 dogs for us when we’ve been away on a couple of occasions now and she’s done a great job every time. Our dogs can be a bit difficult to handle (one is very reactive and the other can be nervous, both can be unsure about strangers) and she handled them with ease and they’re very happy to see her now. She went above and beyond, and even spent some extra time hanging out with them. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I have over fourteen years of experience taking care of dogs. I love getting to know each dog and having a good time especially on a river walk. I work full-time. 2 days in office, 3 days from home. The days I work in office, I drive home during lunch to provide potty breaks. I make sure each dog is comfortable. I have several dog bed locations throughout the apartment upstairs and downstairs and several water bowls. I have a dog crate for those that have crate trained dogs. Most pet owners bring a blanket or something else for the dog to lay on. The dogs have access to a large living room and the entire bottom floor.
About: I’m generally great with animals and I’ve been a cat mom for 3 years now so I’m quite good at making sure a pet is taken care of. I go the extra mile. And follow directions pretty well. Just finished pet CPR training. I’m relatively flexible but prefer to work in the morning because my other job is at night. Totally free Sundays. I have class Thursday evenings right now and I’m usually at the gun range Saturdays but all other days of the week, I’m flexible. I do a bit of traveling but I will block off those days or I’ll let you know if I’m not available on your requested days. Just let me know ahead of time and I’ll let you know of if I can accommodate your request. I prefer texting via the app as much as possible. I make sure to respect your cat’s space and that their needs are met. I feed pets as instructed. Give treats as necessary. Make sure they have adequate water.
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, frogs, and other small pets, including my own Doberman. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing exercise, and paying attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs. My background working with children and families has strengthened my patience, reliability, and communication skills, which I bring to every pet care visit. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets. Pet care fits well into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable and consistent care throughout the week. I work from home and have flexibility during many daytime hours, making it easier to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting needs. I understand how important routines are for pets and do my best to keep their schedule as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions provided by owners. During walks, I use secure leashes and remain attentive to my surroundings. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I respect your home and maintain your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I take time to build trust with each animal, watch for signs of stress or illness, and provide updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Every pet is treated with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would want for my own animals.
About: Welcome to my profile! Hope you find what you’re lookin for. ❤️ I have been a pet lover all my life and I've spent countless personal hours learning about our furry friends,, from physiology to behavioral sciences. I've trained and cared for every family dog that has passed through my home, which has given me in-depth experience with both special needs and disabled pets. I am confident in my ability to care for your pet, big and small. After getting laid-off from my job at a struggling food&beverage startup, I've decided to make my life my own again. You will find my hours extremely flexible, Mon-Fri: ANYTIME! Weekends: Negotiable (I am often volunteering at this time, but hit me up and I'll se what we can work out!) My own doggy gets fed and walked twice a day. I use a Redirect and Reenforce method that keeps dogs happy while maintaining good behavior. I keep safety in mind at all times, for example: never wearing headphones while outside with a pet- both animals and people can be unpredictable! Well versed with dog park etiquette if that is something you are interested in. If someone starts to get aggressive, we bounce!
About: Over the years I have cared for countless animals. From the dogs & kittens I’ve rescued to the ones we actually meant to bring home. :) I am currently a stay-at-home mom looking for fun activities to get me out of the house. My schedule is more flexible when booked ahead of time but I also understand that life happens so I am open to last minute requests - as long as I am able to accommodate. Please anticipate a meet & greet prior to your departure to go over expectations. I will follow all clear instructions provided to me by the owner. I do not care for animals in my home, but am happy to travel to your house!

I live in an apartment with two cats of my own so I don’t currently have dogs at home — just a calm, clean space I keep consistent for any pet staying with me. My cats are used to visitors and generally easygoing, but I’m happy to talk through introductions ahead of time if that matters for your pet. There’s a park directly across the street, which makes it easy to get dogs outside for exercise multiple times a day. I'm respectful of your home, your pet's normal routine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow feeding and medication instructions when needed, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual with your pet. Most importantly, I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I'll treat them with the same patience and care I could want for my own.
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I have walked dogs of all sizes and breeds, including both trained and untrained dogs. I am comfortable caring for pets with special needs and have experience giving medications to sick pets. As a proud Golden Retriever owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pet. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, medication, or extra care, I am dedicated to making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I am currently waiting for college enrollment. As I prepare for college, I have a lot of free time and a flexible schedule to dedicate to caring for pets. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their regular routine to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, exercise, companionship, and lots of attention. I can also administer medications if needed and make sure the home stays clean and tidy. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, affection, and care. I make sure pets have a comfortable place to rest, stick to their feeding schedule, and get the attention they need throughout the day. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.
About: I grew up in a home filled with animals, so caring for furry family members has always come naturally to me. During the 7+ years I lived in Philadelphia, I taught at a large charter school and began house and pet sitting on the side for fellow teachers and staff. Over the years, I had the privilege of caring for so many sweet furry babies, including pets who needed extra attention, medication, and around-the-clock care. I truly grew attached to many of them and missed them dearly when my Philly chapter came to a close in 2024. Today, I proudly call Sacramento home and am excited to share that same love and care with a new community of pet friends! I’m a firm believer that animals can see and feel the energy of humans in ways we sometimes cannot. I lead with warmth, patience, attentiveness, and genuinely good energy…and animals tend to pick up on that pretty quickly. I’ve yet to meet a furry friend who didn’t eventually warm up to me. 😊 I’m especially comfortable caring for pets who need a little extra support, including administering medications, following detailed routines, and providing consistent care throughout the day or night. I work best with thoughtful pet parents who deeply care for their animals, their homes, and the energy within both. When you book with me, you can expect plenty of LOVE, communication, respect for your space, and most importantly…ACCOUNTABILITY. 💛 I work remotely and have plenty of time to share with your furry family members. I love nature and take many walks/hikes as a form of self care. I’m sure we can work just about anything out—flexibility is our middle name😉.” Interactive pup toys to keep them engaged (i.e Kongs, Hide&Seek Treats) My energy can be extremely high most times so playtime is always a thing both indoors and out!! On a chill day/evening you’ll find my toddler (if approved) and I cuddled up or sprawled out on the floor with your fur babies vibing.🕯️
About: I frequently care for dogs and cats and truly love spending time with animals. I am patient, attentive, and responsible, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.

I make sure pets get regular walks, playtime, feeding, and attention every day. I also keep their space clean and spend time giving them affection. Weekly, I plan extra outdoor activities, visits to the nearby dog park (if allowed), and interactive play to keep them happy, healthy, and engaged. 🐾 I frequently care for dogs and cats and truly love spending time with animals.

“Pranavi went above and beyond when taking care of my pups. She sent updates and photos throughout their stay, and made sure they had what they needed to feel at home. One of my pups wasn’t feeling well due to just coming off some medications, so Pranavi offered to feed her rice and yogurt to settle her stomach. It was so helpful to know she was well taken care of while I was away!”
“We left our two labs with Abe over nine days and he did a wonderful job. We have a two year-old male and a 10-year-old female. Abe came and picked them up and sent us pictures every day. We loved seeing the photos of the dogs playing, resting, rolling in the grass, and going on their walks. It gave us such peace of mind on our trip. It was also such a luxury to have them picked up and dropped off. I highly recommend Abe!”
“Derek and Leslie took care of Ozzy on the 4th of July. Ozzy is scared of fireworks and is also a big dog but they even let him pay on their bed for comfort and I really appreciate them for it!”
“Alexis and her partner are dog lovers. They took good care of our dog playing catch with him an endless number of times and made sure he was well fed. If we need a dog sitter, we will definitely book with them in the future.”
“Amy and Justin were amazing with Daisy! They were incredibly flexible and were able to take her a day earlier than originally planned, which we really appreciated. This was Daisy’s first stay with them after a meet-and-greet, and she had the best time and she came home completely worn out from all the fun! They sent photos and updates while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so happy we found them, and Daisy is already booked for a longer stay this summer. Highly recommend!”
“Sarswati and her family took such wonderful care of Sadie while we were away. She kept us updated every day with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Sadie was doing well. Her family is incredibly kind, welcoming, and truly knows how to care for dogs. It was clear that Sadie was loved and well cared for throughout her stay. We will absolutely be booking with Sarswati again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Sadie!”
“Alyssa took great care of our dog, Auggie, for his weekend stay/boarding. She provided updates daily, with pictures of Auggie out for walks and playing fetch. He enjoyed his time with her and her dogs.”
“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Achara was Phenomenal. I cannot express the amount of gratitude and relief I feel boarding my dog with her. I received constant updates and pictures while I was out of town and tips since her dog is the same breed. She socialized my dog and I cannot tell you the amount of peace I felt knowing he was in great hands. I would HIGHLY recommend Achara and she really does go above and beyond!”
“Florene was fantastic! Our dog was there 5 nights and not only played hard with other dogs, but was loved & cared for. Our 1.5 yr old pup got some training while there as well which we appreciated! Cooper came back happy and tired which is great! We knew he was doing well the entire stay because photos and updates were sent frequently which we loved! Thank you!”
“I highly recommend Blaze! She provided excellent care, and kept me updated with photos and videos. My dog was comfortable with her and her childrens. (My dog is Anxious). If I have to do it again, I would do it in an heartbeat.”

“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
“Jasmine was absolutely amazing! She has a great backyard for the dogs to run around. She sent pictures and videos everyday and Shasta always looked so happy. I will definitely be contacting Jasmine again to care for our sweet girl!”
“Annie was great, she accommodated her schedule during Thanksgiving break to help us board our dog while visiting family. We appreciate her flexibility and will definitely use her services again.”
