“I would give 10 stars if I could. Tim is great with Cabi and Nugget. Nugget is usually shy around people he doesn't know. He was laying on Tim's lap within hours of being there. I highly recommend Tim. It is comforting to know my pups are well taken care of when I have to board them.”
“Very communicative, friendly, flexible and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Knox was worn out after 4 days with Sarah and Darren. Thank you 😊”
“Easy drop-off/pick-up and great communication while I was gone. Pup came back tired, so she obviously had a lot of fun playing with Ryan’s dog and running around the fenced in back-yard!”
“We loved Breanne and her family! Maz had a great time and was so well taken care of! Breanne sent plenty of pictures for us which we appreciate so much since it was Maz’s first time away from home! 100% recommend!”
“Our dog was so happy with Heatherlyn. She was super easy to communicate with, sent lots of pup updates and spoiled our dog rotten! (In the best ways possible!)”
“When our dog, Lucy, was reluctant to eat and was a bit timid around the other dogs, Stephanie went the extra mile to entice Lucy to eat and to make her feel comfortable. We got plenty of daily updates and photos. Our experience with Stephanie was terrific, and we will not hesitate to have Lucy stay there again.”
“Great sitters for your pup! Jax came back happy and healthy as ever and seems to have had a great time. We would have liked a little more communication but can’t complain, would definitely use again!”
“Danielle and her family were amazing!! They helped watch our pup during our wedding weekend and made us feel so comfortable leaving her during an exciting time. Great communication and so friendly! Thank you so much Danielle!”
“We boarded our dog with Debra for a 3 night stay. Our dog was definitely loved on and had a blast playing with other dogs. She has a big backyard and a pool, which our guy enjoyed! We also got a flat tire and were late to pick up him, she was very accommodating, which we appreciated.”
“I had a wonderful experience! They were incredibly friendly and took great care of my dog. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. They were also very flexible with scheduling, making drop-off and pick-up easy. I would definitely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“My dog Lola loved her experience with Carolina and her family. She sent photos and videos so I knew my dog Lola was having a great time. Would highly suggest using this family. Thank you so much Carolina and your family for taking care of Lola.”
“Siddhi is the best! It’s easy to tell from the photos she takes that my cat is always having a good time when he stays :) Her home is a very safe environment for cats to rest and play at.”
“Michele was AMAZING! We had to find a sitter last minute and Michele was so accommodating. One of our dogs required some medical care, including diaper changes and administering medication from a recent injury. Michele did this with such care and our dogs were so well taken care of. We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“This is our dog's second time with Amy. It is obvious that he is well loved and treated like a dog of their own. I get updates and photos daily and he comes back very happy. I couldn't ask for more.”
“Brenda was wonderful with our golden retriever, Sadie. She gave us daily updates and went out of her way to make Sadie feel safe and loved. Sadie is scared of thunderstorms and Brenda made sure to comfort her during those days. We appreciated the extra attention!”

“Steve has been taking care of our cats whenever we travel over the past year, and he’s been amazing. During our recent two-week trip overseas, he checked on them every day and sent us photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were so far away. Both of our cats adore him—even our shy one lets him pet her! We couldn’t recommend him more!”
“Thank you Christy for the last minute request and taking care of Catalina. You are so kind and sweet to her. I am happy you were available again. Thank you 😊”

“Ryan was definitely helpful in watching my two fur babies for drop-in visits. Ryan did everything that needed to do around the house and always snapped a photo so I can be updated twice a day. I definitely recommend Ryan & will continue to use Ryan when my wife and I go out of town.”
“Ashley did an amazing job looking after my cat and feeding my beta fish, she leaves lots of pictures and gives Hollie lots of pets. I will definitely use Ashley again in the future.”
“We love Lindsay and couldn’t recommend her enough. My cat got sick including throwing up multiple times. She would send pictures and helped make me feel comfortable that she would be okay till I got back.”
“Lucia was wonderful with our 3 kitties during our extended vacation. She was in frequent contact with us and sent daily pictures and/or videos of the cats, which we looked forward to receiving each day. She was also responsive to communication from us. Two of our cats require medication and it was a relief not to have to worry about that while being away. She also played and loved on them each day and it was obvious that my cats really liked her, too. We will definitely use Lucia again!”
About: I’m a huge cat lover and understand that every cat has their own unique personality. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, treats, and plenty of affection on their terms.
“Coral was fantastic with my cat Coco! My cat is very shy and Coral respected her boundaries which I greatly appreciated! Coral was so kind in our meet and great as well I knew I could trust her immediately!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life — from cats, dogs, and birds to cows and farm animals. Growing up on a farm taught me how to truly understand their behavior and emotions. Animals naturally trust me, and I build a calm, safe connection with every pet I meet. I also have experience caring for senior pets and helping shy animals feel comfortable. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just giving love, your pet will feel at home with me. Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine because I work part-time with a very flexible schedule. I always make time for walks and pet visits, both on weekdays and weekends. Spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy, so I often plan my days around it. Caring for pets isn’t just a task for me — it’s a relaxing and rewarding part of my routine. When I care for pets, I always follow their usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have fresh water, proper meals, playtime, and enough outdoor time if needed. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality — whether they need extra energy, gentle patience, or quiet company. If needed I will keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are happy and cared for.
“I would recommend Sydney for anyone needing someone to check on their beloved fur babies! She responded quickly and provided plenty of pictures and information about my kitties when she checked in on them. Thanks again Sydney!”
“Jessica deserves 20 stars if I could. She’s so thorough and amazing. My kitty sometimes won’t come out from under the bed when I leave town. Jessica not just is wonderful with the pictures and notes but has the magic touch and my kitty loves her. My kitty was out eating and drinking water the days I was gone. She is so appreciated. 💞😻”
“We felt so much more at ease leaving our cat in Lauren’s care. Crumpet can be a little temperamental at times, but she warmed up to Lauren right away! When we got home, she was in great spirits and clearly well cared for. We will absolutely be asking Lauren to watch Crumpet again!”
“We absolutely love Shari! This is the second time we’ve had the pleasure of having her care for our cat, and we couldn’t be happier. She gives us complete peace of mind while we travel, always staying on top of everything and proving to be incredibly reliable. Our cat, Chico, is quite spoiled, but Shari takes such wonderful care of him, making sure he feels loved and comfortable. We truly appreciate her dedication, and there’s no doubt—she is our go-to pet sitter from now on!”
“Jenny was amazing! She took care of our little baby while we were away and also checked in on our home. We appreciate her beyond belief and will definitely be booking again!”
“Jonathon is such a great person and I am so grateful to him for such caring and conscientious visits with my cats. He was communicative and always goes the extra mile to make sure everything for each cat was taken care of. It was an incredible solace that he was with my fur babies while I had to be away because of my Dad’s passing…I didn’t have to worry about anything and am so grateful to him. I will definitely have Jonathon care for the cats again anytime I need help with my animals! Even my shy cats warmed up to him for pets and purrs - that says a lot!! Thanks Jonathon!!”

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Sir Wayne and little Miss Yuki!!!! I can tell they were very much loved during their visit. They felt comfortable enough to give kisses and play! I’m just so grateful you were able to help and on such short notice. You guys are the best! And your dogs too were such good playmates for my fur balls of energy.”
About: Animals have been a core part of my life for over 20 years. I grew up raising and adopting all kinds of pets (dogs, cats, birds, small rodents). I’ve always had a soft spot for adopting senior dogs so they get a spoiled, loving last chapter. I helped my parents raise and train working/hunting dogs for birding, and I’ve volunteered with local rescues supporting adoption efforts. Along the way I’ve cared for everything from 120+ lb working labs (they were huge lol) to lap loving shih-tzus, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My home is the perfect spot for your small dogs and sleepy seniors to get companionship and quiet comfort all day. I work from home so they’ll be part of my day: naps nearby while I’m on calls (or enjoying the enclosed patio where they can keep watch over our side of the neighborhood), enjoy play breaks between meetings, and full attention during lunch and downtime. 🐾 What a day looks like: • Morning walk/potty break • Midday walk to a nearby park with plenty of grass and trees to enjoy (great for zoomies or a leisurely stroll) • Afternoon play/rest break • Evening wind-down walk before pickup 👩💻Working from home = supervision all day, no long alone stretches 🌱No private yard, but we have a comfortable enclosed patio and can provide frequent walks to nearby grassy parks for exercise or a low-impact stroll 🐾 Comfortable, calm environment (great for dogs who do better with low-key days)
“Coltrane spent his first day with Sarah & Darren and they took great care of him. It is obvious that they are dog lovers and enjoy hanging out and playing. Coltrane had so much fun, he didn't necessarily even want to leave when we picked him up. We have a couple of boarding stays booked with Sarah & Darren in the near future and I feel good about leaving Coltrane with them for these stays. I know he will be well taken care of and have lots of fun. Thank you Sarah & Darren!”
“My pup had an absolutely wonderful stay for 4 days, she came home super happy and tired out each day. They were extremely accommodating and available on short notice. 10/10 would rebook”
“Debra did a great job taking care of my senior dog Lucy she is very kind and loves animals and.She will be watching her again while I'm out of town for a week would definitely recommend”
“Brooke & Nathan were amazing with our dogs! They took us in last minute when we decided on a ski day the next morning, and they couldn’t have been more accommodating. Their timing was super flexible, and their dogs got along so well with ours! The pups were spoiled with treats, had a nice backyard to run around and had a comfy couch to cuddle on. They sent us pictures and videos throughout the day and by the time we picked them up, our dogs were pooped!”
“Carolina has been so wonderful both times she has had Remi and she is now my go to pet sitter! She sends a lot of pictures, and updates me throughout the day. She has been super accommodating, and I can tell she really has a love for dogs! I feel very confident about Remi spending time in Carolina’s home.”
“Breanne and her family are amazing! Our pup loves playing with her dogs, and they are excited to see each other when we drop off. The daily pictures are also a treat to receive.”

“Melody was sweet to our pups! She gave them treats throughout the day, cuddled with them, and took them on a walk! She gave us frequent updates which I appreciate and loved to see!”
About: At 27 years old, I've had experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from rambunctious puppies who need lots of patience and playtime, to energetic large breeds, to sweet senior dogs who require a little extra care and comfort. I know that every dog is unique, and I strive to make each pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. Whether your pup loves long walks, endless games of fetch, or simply wants a cozy companion to relax with, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I'd love the opportunity to provide them with a safe, fun, and caring experience. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! Meet and Greets before booking a service are welcome! ☺️ As a flight attendant, my schedule varies from week to week, but I often have multiple consecutive days off that allow me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I keep my Rover calendar updated so you'll always see my current availability. When I commit to a booking, you can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of attention for your pet. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities.

With over 20 years of experience in dog training, working with animal shelters, and training therapy dogs, my expertise spans a wide spectrum. I've had the privilege of working with countless dogs, and each moment has been invaluable to me. From the tiniest pups to the largest breeds, I've embraced every opportunity to care for them and understand their unique communication styles. When embarking on a new client relationship, I prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet session. This serves as a vital compatibility check, ensuring harmony between all parties involved. Moreover, it offers an invaluable opportunity for us to discuss your dog and your specific care preferences face-to-face. Nobody understands your furry friend better than you do, and engaging directly with owners helps me glean insights into what makes their pup truly happy! Additionally, I relish the chance to meet new dogs, and I make it a point to interact with them at their level, establishing a rapport that promises fast friendship. Recognizing the challenges of being separated from your cherished companion, effective communication becomes paramount. I pledge to keep you updated regularly with photos, offering glimpses into the delightful moments your pup and I share. Whether it's mealtimes or behavioral nuances, I am committed to providing detailed reports that foster peace of mind.

“Dawn & Rob are awesome!! They are so kind and caring and you can tell how much they love dogs. My pup was so excited to spend the day with them! Very responsive and just wonderful people. Would highly recommend them to anyone! Thanks!!”
About: Hi there! 🐾 Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I loved them so much as a kid that by age 7, I was teaching myself how to potty train our dogs and work on basic commands using treats and positive reinforcement. What started as a childhood obsession has turned into a lifelong passion! Over the years, I've volunteered with several animal shelters, most recently helping with dog walks and special events at MaxFund in Denver. Those experiences gave me the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and backgrounds. I have a particular soft spot for senior dogs and pets with special needs, who often just need a little extra patience, understanding, and love. While I don't have a personal backyard, daily walks, park visits, and little adventures around Denver are a big part of life for me and my own senior pup, Sammy. I believe every dog deserves plenty of exercise, enrichment, attention, and affection. I've also cared for dozens of pets belonging to friends and family over the years, and I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and would love to do even more of it. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace and extra cuddles, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! ❤️🐶 While I work full-time, I work from home most weekdays and have full availability on weekends, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the dogs in my care. I'm happy to accommodate pups with higher energy needs, but my typical routine includes three 30-minute walks throughout the day, along with lots of playtime, attention, and companionship. Of course, not every dog enjoys or is able to handle that level of activity. I'm especially comfortable caring for senior and special-needs dogs, and I'm happy to adapt walks, playtime, and enrichment activities to their individual needs, mobility, and energy level. I can also provide potty breaks as often as needed and have access to a dog run downstairs for supervised fetch, sniffing, and extra exercise. Whether your dog loves staying active or prefers a slower pace with cozy naps and gentle companionship, I do my best to tailor their care to their personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe, happy, and right at home My home is very much a "dogs are family" kind of place. Couch cuddles are welcome, treats are plentiful (with your approval of course!), and I love providing enrichment through puzzle toys, training games, sniff walks, and interactive play. I believe mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise, and I enjoy finding fun ways to keep dogs engaged while making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home. 🐾❤️
About: I have had dogs the majority of my life and absolutely adore them. They bring so much unconditional love to our lives that it is impossible not to love them! I currently work from home so I am always here for your dog(s) during the day. My schedule at work is designed to allow me to take dogs out every two hours if they aren't sure of or can't use a dog door. I will get all viable information from the pawrent so I know exactly what is needed for the pet such as feedings, walks, medications, training or other things.
About: Hi there! I have been a "dog mom" for many years and understand and appreciate how important they are as members of the family. My dog Kody is my heart and since I don't have human children, all the maternal instincts, which are many, are focused on him. I think you have to be a *dog person" to truly understand what I mean. I have fostered for a rescue (which led to two additions to my family) and tend to be a bit over protective which means I am very aware of how they are doing, if there are any changes and most importantly how they are cared for. The same would hold true for any dog I am responsible for. I have a good amount of availability and am open to discussing boarding or providing day care in my home provided your dog is "dog friendly". I am somewhat limited to the number of hours I am able to provide at one time if the care is in the community and therefore would be looking for work in the Highlands Ranch area. I am currently job hunting and therefore have a lot of time to take care of your pup, especially if I am providing care in my home. A meet and great will be important as well as an introduction of our dogs to each other. I treat them as if they are mine. I have a 4.5 year old cockapoo who would be a great companion provided it is a good fit. I have a six foot fence yard and always accompany my dog outside.

About: Hi! I’m Esme, a huge animal lover and proud pet parent. I have a Mini American Shepherd named Kita, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. While I adore dogs, I’m also a big cat lover! Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, chasing toys, or simply having someone keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to get to know them. From energetic pups to shy kitties, my goal is always to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and become their new bestie! 🐾💕 Animals are already a huge part of my life! As a dog mom to my Mini American Shepherd, Kita, pet care is built into my daily routine. My days are filled with walks, playtime, training, and lots of cuddles. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels less like work and more like something I enjoy. Whether it’s a dog who loves adventure or a cat who just wants a quiet companion, I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to the routines they’re familiar with, so I always try to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals, and, of course, lots of love. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs. Some pets love long walks and play sessions, while others prefer cuddles on the couch or a quiet companion nearby. I’m happy to adapt to what makes your pet feel most comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect both your pet’s routine and your home, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
“Steve is flexible and takes such good care of our puppy!! He is also amazing at communicating! We feel very fortunate to have found someone so trustworthy.”
About: We will look after older dogs. We take care of 1 dog at a time, so that they do not have to be in competition with anyone else. Retired person, so I have time to spend with your pet. I take walks during the day, so I hope your dog is willing to go with me. I do walk at a slower pace, no running (old knees) I have a large fenced-in backyard, and we live near many walking trails. I will be happy to spend time with your dog and keep it safe and secure
“We were very happy with our 1st experiance with Christy from Rover.com. We had piece of mind that our Rusty was getting his daily exercise while staying at grandmas while we were on vacation. Christy set times every day with my mother and she sent us pictures and updates daily. I would highly recommend her for her professional yet warm manner with my dog and my mother who was happy for the extra help.”
About: My experience caring for dogs began when I was 11 years old, helping foster dogs and learning how to meet the unique needs of pets from different backgrounds and temperaments. Over the years, I have regularly cared for friends' and family members' dogs during week-long stays, providing attentive care, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection while their owners were away. In addition, my experience working in a veterinary office has given me valuable knowledge of animal health, behavior, and safety. This combination of hands-on pet care and professional veterinary experience allows me to provide reliable, compassionate care and ensure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day! I work part-time, so I have lots of availability for walks, playtime, and check-ins. I'm completely free all day Tuesday through Friday, making those days perfect for dog walking, daycare, or extended care needs. For overnight boarding, I'm home every night to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I love spending time with animals and am happy to provide the companionship, exercise, and attention they deserve while you're away! Your dog will feel right at home when staying with us! We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy outdoor time. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers having their own space, I am happy to accommodate crating based on your preferences and your pet's routine. One of the best parts of staying in our home is that there are four family members who love animals and are happy to provide extra attention, companionship, and affection. Even if I need to step out for a short time, your dog will still have plenty of company and care. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment where every dog feels loved and welcomed like part of the family!

“Jonathan is the first person who I have felt really comfortable leaving Parker with for long periods of time. His gentle nature is exactly what the Parker pup needs!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for years, from walking neighborhood dogs a few times a week to helping with a family doggy daycare where dogs stayed with us for weeks at a time. I also have a sweet Shih Tzu named Oakley, so I know firsthand how much love, patience, and attention pets need every single day. I’ve cared for puppies full of energy, older pets who need a little extra gentleness, and everything in between. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family — because I truly believe all pets deserve the same kind of love and care that we humans do. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or simply being a calming presence while you’re away, I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. 💗 I currently work full-time, but I always have time before and after work on weekdays to stop by and spend time with your pet! On weekends, my schedule is very open and flexible — perfect for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Whether it’s weekday mornings, evenings, or a weekend adventure, I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention and love they need. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I make sure they feel secure, loved, and well taken care of. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — from feeding times to walks to play — so they feel right at home, even while you’re away. I have experience with both dogs and cats — from energetic puppies and playful kittens to gentle seniors who need extra patience. Whether it’s a long walk, cuddle time on the couch, or making sure litter boxes and feeding schedules are on track, I give each pet the attention they deserve. You can trust that your pets will be treated like family and cared for with the same love I give my own dog, Oakley.
About: I lived with pets growing up...dogs, cats, reptiles, horses. I am very active, and will play or run with your animal for hours! I am licensed to administer medication to humans, and have volunteered with wild animal rescues, so I can care for sick animals too. I choose the hours I work at my job, allowing me to pick up a shift at any hour and remain flexible with last-minute changes. I won’t be boarding at my home, but I have reliable transportation and wouldn’t mind taking your dog to a dog park or nearby hiking trail. Otherwise, let me know what you and your animal feel most comfortable with! I will always respect your wishes. :) I can be flexible, if you communicate your needs with me! ;) Message me to schedule a public meeting place and time so I can get to know you and your dog, then leave from there if it feels right. I only meet in public spaces. :) You can get to know me and how I will vibe with your dog or cat before we hit the trails.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was born. I have experience with a variety of breeds and sizes- I currently have my own boxer and two cats! I have experience with training as I’ve trained two service dogs. Friends and family have also trusted me to care for their pets during day trips, weekend trips, and week long trips. My own dog has a special diet and has had medical issues requiring medication so I have experience with those types of needs as well. I am very aware of the needs each animal has and I pride myself on ensuring every animal has the best and most specialized care. My work schedule is fairly flexible and I have varying availability most days. Don’t hesitate to contact me with any scheduling questions! If I’m coming into your home, I will make sure to spend plenty of one on one time with your family member and make sure they receive plenty of love and attention! My schedule is fairly flexible right now and I update the calendar regularly so my availability should all be accurate. I work in healthcare, but primarily do home health so I am already frequently driving around and can make schedule adjustments as needed! I ensure that all questions are answered prior to watching any animals to make certain that all needs are met and any safety concerns are addressed. I also make sure to send frequent updates so you are aware that your pet is being taken care of in the best way possible!
“Antonia is WONDERFUL with my lil old man! She takes him for walks over a mile each time... this past time it was freezing and snowing. It did not stop her- I was so grateful. So was Buster :-)”
About: I have cared for animals from hedgehogs to cats, dogs to fish, even chickens. I have helped raise puppies and kittens to at least 17yrs in age. Through this, I’ve cared for pets in all stages of life, including elderly and aging animals requiring daily administering of meds, and helping one of my pets relearn life as she has recently lost her sight. I understand the patience and care needed throughout the different stages of life, and truly strive to care for your pets as my own. Currently, my schedule is very flexible. I work part time as a private chef and can easily move things around. I am able to accept bookings in the morning, afternoons, or evenings. I do not care for clients pets in my own home, as I have too many of my own pets, including older ones with varying needs. In my clients home, I make sure to follow instructions and create a safe environment for their pets and care for them as if they were my own.

“Very communicative, friendly, flexible and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Knox was worn out after 4 days with Sarah and Darren. Thank you 😊”
“Easy drop-off/pick-up and great communication while I was gone. Pup came back tired, so she obviously had a lot of fun playing with Ryan’s dog and running around the fenced in back-yard!”
“We loved Breanne and her family! Maz had a great time and was so well taken care of! Breanne sent plenty of pictures for us which we appreciate so much since it was Maz’s first time away from home! 100% recommend!”
“Our dog was so happy with Heatherlyn. She was super easy to communicate with, sent lots of pup updates and spoiled our dog rotten! (In the best ways possible!)”
“When our dog, Lucy, was reluctant to eat and was a bit timid around the other dogs, Stephanie went the extra mile to entice Lucy to eat and to make her feel comfortable. We got plenty of daily updates and photos. Our experience with Stephanie was terrific, and we will not hesitate to have Lucy stay there again.”
“Great sitters for your pup! Jax came back happy and healthy as ever and seems to have had a great time. We would have liked a little more communication but can’t complain, would definitely use again!”
“Danielle and her family were amazing!! They helped watch our pup during our wedding weekend and made us feel so comfortable leaving her during an exciting time. Great communication and so friendly! Thank you so much Danielle!”
“We boarded our dog with Debra for a 3 night stay. Our dog was definitely loved on and had a blast playing with other dogs. She has a big backyard and a pool, which our guy enjoyed! We also got a flat tire and were late to pick up him, she was very accommodating, which we appreciated.”
“I had a wonderful experience! They were incredibly friendly and took great care of my dog. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. They were also very flexible with scheduling, making drop-off and pick-up easy. I would definitely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“My dog Lola loved her experience with Carolina and her family. She sent photos and videos so I knew my dog Lola was having a great time. Would highly suggest using this family. Thank you so much Carolina and your family for taking care of Lola.”
“This is our dog's second time with Amy. It is obvious that he is well loved and treated like a dog of their own. I get updates and photos daily and he comes back very happy. I couldn't ask for more.”
“Brenda was wonderful with our golden retriever, Sadie. She gave us daily updates and went out of her way to make Sadie feel safe and loved. Sadie is scared of thunderstorms and Brenda made sure to comfort her during those days. We appreciated the extra attention!”
“Michelle was great with Jack! She was very attentive to his needs as a senior dog with medical issues. I could not have been more pleased with her and her loving care of our dog.”
“Kadin, his wife, and two dogs were perfect home away from home for our two big friendly dogs. They have a big yard and two dogs who love to play, so it was a perfect match with ours! During this sit, we had a medical emergency, and they were accommodating with quick scheduling, drops offs, and everything we needed to get our dogs care during a medical crisis. We appreciate them greatly and highly recommend them to other families.”
“Dan was amazing with my super energetic dog. He was communicative, helpful, and even helped coordinate a pickup/drop-off while I was out of town. Harper came back very tired after a fun weekend with Dan and his dogs! I’ll definitely be booking again. Thanks!”
“Teresa watched our two dogs for a week. After the visit, I put her in my contacts as Dog Grandma... once you meet her you would understand. Her home is set up to watch dogs, you can feel her good intentions and love for pets just talking with her. Pups were loved on and taken well care of. Highly recommend her!”
