“Sidney was great and gave me many updates on my pup. My dog loved her golden retriever. She looked like she had a bunch of fun. I would definitely use her for future dog boarding needs!”
“Sing-Chun, or Sally does a fabulous job. Great upstairs bedroom when an awesome window for kitty to sit high and scope the environment. She took care of my attention hogging kitty and brainstormed ways to entertain/occupy him. He is one spoiled cat. Thank you.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Delane when she cared for Monet for three days. From the very beginning, during our meet and greet, we genuinely enjoyed our conversation with her. Delane is such a lovely and thoughtful person, and clearly experienced with dogs. Her dog, Lucy, is absolutely sweet and gentle, and Monet and Lucy got along very well. Delane’s home is warm and welcoming, and Monet settled in right away. She kept us updated throughout Monet’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Monet was not only well cared for, but also comfortable. We would happily book with Delane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, warm, and dependable caregiver. Thank you, Delane!!”
“Sean is a wonderful sitter! He took Ultra on multiple adventures during her overnight stay, and she came back happy (and tired from so much fun.) I really appreciated the photo updates, which reassured us that she was getting amazing care. I'll definitely be looking for an opportunity to rebook soon!”
“This was so much better than a stuffy kennel. While we were on our vacation our dogs were on their own vacation. They enjoyed plenty of outside playtime and rested in resort conditions while being treated like vips (very important puppies). Never had to worry because I had pictures sent as updates periodically through the day. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves their pets like family.”
“Could not say more positive things about Nawal & Thomas! They went above and beyond with keeping me up to date about all the happenings and adventures my Greyson went on. They genuinely loved him like their own and he came home so incredibly calm and happy. Thank you so so much! Would book again in a heartbeat.”
“Curtis did a fantastic job boarding our golden doodle. He is very thorough and communicates very well. Our dog was very active during her stay with lots of walks and play time. We received lots of photos and even got report cards. Looking forward to our next stay with Curtis.”
“We are grateful for the love and care Alexandra & Jeff plus kids gave to Arley during a long weekend stay. It's always nice to have peace of mind when traveling and we had that with them. Arley was well cared for and happy to see us -- and it was great to see a few pics of Arley doing well in their home. We will book again in the future.”
“Glee did a fantastic job taking care of our Waddles. She sent multiple pictures everyday so that we could see that he was happy and active. It brought us a lot of peace of mind and really helped us enjoy our vacation to know that he was being so well cared for.”
“Ruby loved her time at Kim’s! This was her first time boarding and she came out super happy after all of the socialization time with the other dogs and Kim’s son. Kim gave frequent updates and clearly took great care of her!”
“Our dog had the best time staying with Meghan and Hakon! They made our time away from our pup easy with updates, photos, and genuine care for our dog. We felt confident she was in good hands!”
“Thanks, Cole! We always appreciate your wonderful care for Toffee. We know she has a great time with you & your family, and she comes home happily exhausted! We also appreciate your flexibility in our pick up times! You’re the best!!”
“Kristina was VERY responsive and great with our big old Riley boy. He came home happy and sleepy, like a dog post-vacation should be! We also got a ton of pictures over the weekend of Riley living his best life. Thanks for helping us out, Kristina!”
“Amazing job! Super informative and helped when she was anxious with other dogs. We loved all the pictures of her playing and appreciated the separate areas for meals. Overall it was a very pleasant first experience with the app and we will be back for future visits!”
“Great booking with Ryan and his wife. Got great updates and pictures. They have the perfect set up for dog sitting with a great yard, plenty of gates for separation, if needed, and gentle, but playful hosts.”
“Maria was absolutely fantastic with our slightly quirky Rhodesian Ridgeback, Leo! She and her husband took the best care of him and took him on all sorts of adventures. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“It was our first time ever leaving our dog with anyone overnight. She is 7 years old so we were quite worried about how she would do. Kyle and Desiree put us completely at ease - they are sooo kind and caring! Bella had a wonderful time with them and clearly became attached to their sweet daughter. We have already booked a follow-up week stay with them would highly recommend them!”
“Elizabeth cared for my high energy 3 year old German Shorthair Pointer and I was more than happy with her service! First off, she was extremely professional and educated when it came to Willows stay. We did a meet and great prior which eased a lot of my anxieties. She sent me photos of Willow while away and I could truly tell Elizabeth is passionate and caring when it comes to dogs! I will definitely be using her in the future and am so relieved my hunt for a good dog sitter is over! Willow was also very tuckered out after her stay with Elizabeth which tells me that she had a wonderful, fun-filled time during her stay. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah was wonderful with our dog! We received tons of updates and pictures throughout the time our dog was with Sarah, which helped us rest easy ? I would recommend Sarah to anyone, and will definitely be coming back again!”

“Genna took wonderful care of my 2 cats while I was out of the country. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure everything was going well while I was away. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my cats were in such good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable sitter.”

About: I grew up on a farm where we had all kinds of animals including many dogs and cats that I adored. Specifically, we had a couple of German Shepherd dogs that required daily activity. I also went to school and graduated with a degree in Animal Science which focuses on Animal Husbandry. I have experience with basic obedience training along with administering medications to all types of animals. I have a full time job that allows me to work remotely a couple days during the week so I can do drop ins during the day if needed. My weekends are generally available to do overnights. I would be happy to accomodate any schedule needs you might have. I will be able to pick up on and monitor your pets behavior to ensure their safety. I am able to create a structured but friendly environment for those pets that need it.
“Tonali was a pleasure to work with! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our two cats were being well taken care of. It was always nice when we would receive pictures of pets to let us know how they were doing. Tonali also watered our plants and brought in packages left at the door. We will definitely be using her again in the future!!”
About: Hi there! I’ve had cats my whole life and absolutely adore our feline friends. I’m happy to provide scheduled visits, playtime, cuddles, and all the attention your cat needs while you’re away. I understand how important it is for cats to feel safe and comfortable in their own space, so I’m always gentle, patient, and respectful of their unique personalities. I’m also more than happy to meet with you and your cat beforehand to make sure we’re a good fit!
“Daniella was so great with my cat. She sent pictures from every visit, along with fun messages about how she is doing. My house was exactly the way I left it, and my cat was happy and healthy when I got home. Daniella exceeded my expectations, I would recommend to anyone. ”
“Christen was an incredible pet sitter. When I was out of town for a week, she checked in on my cat, Val, daily and was very clear with her communication of what they did on their visit and how my cat was doing while I was gone. She came over once before the check ins to meet Val and get everything looked at. And right before I left when I had a quick fix for a pipe leak, she very kindly agreed to check in on that for me too while I was out of town!”
“Claire did an outstanding job taking care of Mochi for two days in a row. She was incredibly professional, responsible, and attentive throughout the entire time. She kept me updated regularly, followed all instructions carefully, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Mochi and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Claire with Mochi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
About: I have years of experience with “bully” breeds, and elderly dog care. I am good with walking dogs of all sizes and training levels.

I am able to set my own schedule in advance at my job to ensure I have the proper time to care for your loved ones. Animals aren’t just pets, they’re apart of your family and should be treated as such. When I am taking care of your fur-babies, they will receive ny full attention and support!

“After struggling to find a pet sitter that would take an intact male on short notice, we got a super quick reply from Noah. He took many pictures, and our dog had a blast during his day there. Good fenced in yard”
“Olivia was so accommodating with my dog. He is usually anxious with leaving me but he was happy to be there when we dropped him off. Will definitely use them again in the future”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, starting with training and walking my first dog, which helped me develop patience, consistency, and a strong understanding of trust. I later co-parented a high-needs dog, gaining experience with behavior management, individual care needs, and medication administration. Throughout my life, friends and neighbors have relied on me to care for their animals, and I pride myself on being dependable, calm, and attentive. I also live an active lifestyle and would love to bring your dog along on hikes or outdoor adventures if that’s something they enjoy. I currently work part time in a hybrid role, and I love to fill some of my time caring for pups! I can’t wait to find out how I can support. My clean and spacious home is the perfect landing space for your pup between walks, potty breaks, rides around town, higher intensity hikes, or whatever activities your dog enjoys the most. Your dog will have the freedom to roam where they please, sit with me on the couch, or insist upon another walk. I pride myself on my attention to detail and risk management when it comes to any environment your dog and I are sharing, while optimizing fun and enrichment. Conveniently located next to a trail and several parks, we will have no shortage of excellent places to jaunt and play!
“We came in from out of town. Very hectic graduation. Asked Joanne if she would be able to take Teddy and she was more than accommodating. Teddy was more than happy to be in her care. Definitely recommend Joanne to anyone.”
“Mary is simply amazing. She has a real gift with animals, and, it would seem, can see into their souls. My GSP, Cass, has had a very hard life and can have real anxiety when staying outside our home. Mary experimented with different classical composers until she found one that made Cass relax. When I went to pick up Cass. she was happy to see me but still very happy to hang out with Mary. We're making plans to have Cass visit for day care regularly and work up to over-nighters. Mary has a large fenced-in yard in a rural part of town which was perfect for a bird dog to go hang out in all day. As a result, Cass was really tuckered out and slept soundly through the night! Can not recommend Mary enough!”
About: Some unique dog care facts about me: -I have owned and loved 5 dogs their full lifespans throughout my 28 years of life -I can work well with other animals being in your home, because I grew up on a ranch with chickens, cats, goats, ducks, etc. -I can handle disputes between dogs, and can love on rescued/ nervous doggos -I will not love on a puppy any more than I love on an old dog -My commitment to your pet's safety is 100% -I have all the applicable skills when it comes to being aware of the dog's personal needs and how they might vary from other dogs -I don't just do the basics-- I ensure that the dogs receive love and not JUST that they have the essentials! I am actively booking services via Rover in addition to other scheduled clients. Currently, I am available for dog walking, drop in visits for both dogs and cats, and overnight stays in your home in Northern CO/ the Front Range. As of May 2026, I am now working a full-time in -office job Tues-Sat (10am-6pm, 10-5pm on Saturdays.) That being said, if you are located within a close drive to my office in Longmont, i can also do drop in visits on my lunch breaks (anytime between noon- 2pm.) I provide the utmost care to your pups or kitties. Please refer to my calendar to book services and see when I am available 😊 PLEASE NOTE: **** I have a policy that new clients must request my services within 5 days’ advanced notice prior to drop- in visits, walks, or overnight sitting. If this cannot be done, it is very likely that I may instead request a one- time add- on adjustment/ fee to the booking, especially if the request is made: - In less than 24 hours’ notice and/ OR - On a Holiday PLEASE respect this policy of mine & know that I am a small business owner who cares for animals full- time. I do my best to fulfill each request that comes my way, unless I otherwise am already booked at the same time. I do not turn anyone away and ask that my time, care & love for your fur babies is respected! Thanks :) **** I always ensure that your pets are in either a fenced in yard, or on leash while walked out in the neighborhood. I have experience with neurotic, fearful pups who need some extra lovin’, and may take their sweet time to get to know me and/ or need to be muzzled to go on a walk. I have cared for 8 week old puppies, and 19.5 year old kitties and elderly dogs. My love and respect for animals is always at the forefront of the time I spend in your home with your furry family members!
“Jacky was AMAZING with Mecum, I swear he had the best night of his life. She was super attentive to his needs and brought him for many fun activities. Best Rover person I’ve ever met!!! I’m so grateful I met her and can’t wait for future trips for her to hang out with him! :) he moved right in and loved it. Thank you, Jacky! She also sent me frequent updates throughout the night and sent pictures/ videos. You’re the best, Jacky!!!!”
“Kyleigh was fantastic with our dog, and he's not the easiest dog in the world to manage. He came home tired and seemingly happy - a perfect combination! We'll definitely be using Kyleigh again!”
About: I've fostered and adopted many animals, including those with medical conditions and treatments. I'm passionate about senior dog care and love ❤️, but I love all animals. From snuggles to special diets, medications, exercise, PT, walks, mental stimulation, and playtime, I'm up for it all. I currently work full time but will be transitioning to a remote job from home. I feed my dog in the morning before work and have a 2 hour morning routine, then break for lunch for feeding, bathroom and snuggles, and then dinner and bathroom after work at 5pm and play in evening time. When working from home, I take frequent breaks to walk and stimulate my buddies. I have a lovely middle-aged shih tzu named "Princess Peach" who is a great companion and dog and cat host. My house is a 2 bedroom ranch style home with basement in a terrific walkable neighborhood. I have a backyard with a chain link fence along a residential street. I have a reliable car and can lift and transport large and small animals with care. I'm attentive and observant and observe all rules of clients' homes. I'm very respectful of others' spaces and clean up immediately after any mess.
“Anna takes perfect care of our Gus. She follows all of our directions. Equally important is that Gus has a fabulous time with Anna, her family, their own pets and another dog or two that she cares for. Gus loves Anna and family and so do we.”
About: I have cared for dozens of dogs, cats and pets over the last 25 years. I bring a calming, grounded energy and an intelligent, thoughtful approach when caring for animals. I am self-employed as an insurance broker and can work from anywhere with cell service/internet. This gives me a ton of flexibility with scheduling and availability. I work closely with pet owners to follow specific care instructions and take their personal preferences very seriously. I understand that pets are part of the family and have their own unique routines, needs and care requirements.
“Christine was fantastic and Lulu had a great time playing with Hondo! Lulu is a very anxious dog—Christine was understanding of her needs and Lulu warmed to her within just this first daycare visit. I’ll definitely be booking again and grateful to have another spot where I know Lu will be happy and wonderfully cared for.”
About: Grew up with Rusty, Fifi and Rocky. My kids grew up with Scout. Precious visits from Chloe, Lexi, Lilly, Joey, Forest, Katie, Cowboy, Kiah, Riggo and other dog friends. I have also provided medication including injections as needed. I’m an active retiree with a dog door to fenced yard. As a triathlete I thrive on exercise. Outdoors in my nearby parks + dog walking = 😊Glee I treat clients dogs as if they’re my own. I send frequent photos of our activities. I always consider their safety and the wishes of the people they live with. I watch two dogs at a time if they come from the same home. Otherwise only one dog at a time. Even though I do not have children in my home I do want for my grandsons (5&7) to be safe and comfortable visiting at times. Therefore, I choose not to watch dogs that do not do well with children or if the owner is unsure about their dog with children. I regret to mention I would not be willing to watch pit mixes. I’m sure many are wonderful dogs. I just can’t take the chance. Thank you for your understanding.
“Our dog had a blast at Hollie and Zach's place! They are super responsive and patient. Hollie made sure I understand the property situation and asked about my preferences and Zach did a great job taking care of my pup. Their dogs are playful and the yard is perfect for dogs to run around. Will definitely book again when we are back in the area!”
“Georgia successfully tired out our energetic, border collie puppy Nancy! She was communicative throughout the day and took Nancy to play in the creek. Thank you!!”

“Janelle is so kind, gentle, and patient with Max. She’s super communicative and always willing to do whatever he needs. I’m so grateful I found her and I know Max is too! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet care professional. It’s still hard to close the door and leave Max at home every morning now that I’m working outside the house again but I feel so much better knowing Janelle will be by to care for him while I’m gone! 🐾🖤”
“My little guy is a tough cookie to crack. He is a bit worried and stand off-ish with new people. Thank you Izzy for being as calm and patient as you were with him! He came around to you ❣️”
“Abbi is great! She is very responsive, responsible and attentive. We really appreciate her flexibility and attention to detail. Our dog loves spending time with her and we highly recommend her for your pet needs!”
About: As I photographer, you will get lots of cute pics of your furry friend while in my care. My calm steady energy will set you and your pet at ease. I also, recognize that every pet is unique and I like to adapt my care of them to their specific needs. Whether that be lots of exercise or lots of cuddles. I customize my care to what you and your pet communicate they need. I am currently self employed as a photographer, so I create my own schedule. This helps me be flexible to you and your pets needs. I’m a warm and inviting human who loves animals, and animals love me. I have a grounding energy that helps put animals at ease. Everyone is safe and supported while in my care.
About: Hi, I'm Hollie! If your pup could design their dream vacation, it would probably look a lot like my place. I live in a cozy cabin in the mountains, just 25 minutes from Boulder and 10 minutes from Nederland, backed up to National Forest with miles and miles of trails right outside the door. Whether your dog is a seasoned trail runner or more of a leisurely sniffer, we'll find the perfect adventure (or nap spot) together. My sidekick is Chaco, the sweetest 8-year-old Great Pyrenees mix who is the best boy: calm, easygoing, and always happy to share his mom (just not with small puppies). A few things that make staying with us special: Direct National Forest access — hiking and trail running right from the cabin, no car needed Unfenced yard with tons of space — perfect for dogs with great recall who love to roam freely (leash walks always available too!) Someone home 24/7 — I work from home running my dog business, Plus the Pups, so your pup will never be left alone. Dogs are genuinely my whole life — I've built an entire business around making sure dogs are not only included in their parents' weddings, but that they have a safe, regulated nervous system to orient to in an otherwise emotionally charged environment. Whether your dog needs high-altitude adventures or cozy cabin cuddles, I've got them covered. P.S. If you'd like to check out more reviews on how I work with dogs, you can read my business Google Reviews here: ........?q=plus+the+pups&oq=plus+the+pups&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCQgAEEUYORiABDIMCAEQIxgnGIAEGIoFMggIAhAAGBYYHjIKCAMQABiABBiiBDIHCAQQABjvBTIKCAUQABiABBiiBDIGCAYQRRg80gEIMTY4NWowajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x2dc6d7fc8c59fdab:0xd3aaa8bbb29cac68,1,,,, My dog, Chaco, is my life, and my days pretty much revolve around him. Which means that my days will pretty much revolve around your dogs, too (: I live in a cabin in the Foothills of Boulder that backs up to National Forest with miles and miles of hiking trails. I also LOVE trail running, so if you have a high energy pup that needs to burn off lots of energy, this is the place and I'm the gal. That said, if you have a pup who prefers leisurely walks, Chaco and I are out walking several times a day.
About: I’ve grown up with many animals over the years, including cats, dogs, reptiles, horses, and chickens, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I’ve also helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting—providing everything from daily walks and feedings to overnight care and companionship. These experiences have helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and a genuine love for all kinds of pets. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available for pet sitting most of the time, with occasional exceptions when I have prior commitments. I’m hoping to incorporate a regular dog walking schedule as well. I’m happy to stay at your home while pet sitting, and I always ensure a quiet, respectful, and clean environment. I’ll do whatever makes your dog or cat feel most comfortable, respecting their routines and needs.
“Shawn was great, booked him for a week. My two dogs had no issues w/ him, nor did he have issues with them. Shawn was very nice & attentive to their needs. From bathroom breaks to water breaks Shawn handled it. If the doggies were low on food/water he took care of it. He walked the dogs on various routes within the neighborhood to keep them interested. Thanx again Shawn for your help and nurturing. I WILL definitely book again in the future.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them independently since I was 14 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their dogs while they were away. I recently lost my own dog, which made me realize how much I truly love being around them. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs different levels of attention, exercise, and affection. I enjoy long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, and just simply having a buddy. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will provide probably too many photos and updates. My schedule is fairly flexible, I work part time as a private caregiver for an elderly couple. I have lots of free time and I do my best to accommodate each dog’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week.

I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your dog gets the attention and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a family member, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding routines, feeding, medications, exercise, and house rules.

My busiest days are Monday and Fridays, as I work from 8 am to 6:30 pm. However, I only work part time (max being 5 hours) for the rest of the week.

I am currently home for the summer so my schedule is very flexible. My mornings are generally busier, but I can adapt to your needs on most days. The safety and happiness of your pet is my first priority, so I prefer to stick to familiar areas and will pay close attention to your pet's cues. If your dog enjoys exercise or activities, I am also able to go on runs, play, or explore new places with them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. I’ve always had a love for dogs. I’ve cared for my own dogs and others.

When I leave the house to run errands I am not typically gone more than a couple of hours at a time. I live in an apartment but go on walks in the evenings with my kids. My kids and I love dogs but don’t own one at the moment. We don’t own any pets at the moment. We would love to help care for someone else’s pup until we get our own!
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have had five dogs growing up. I currently have two Great Pyrenees mixes, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities!

“Sidney was great and gave me many updates on my pup. My dog loved her golden retriever. She looked like she had a bunch of fun. I would definitely use her for future dog boarding needs!”
“Sean is a wonderful sitter! He took Ultra on multiple adventures during her overnight stay, and she came back happy (and tired from so much fun.) I really appreciated the photo updates, which reassured us that she was getting amazing care. I'll definitely be looking for an opportunity to rebook soon!”
“This was so much better than a stuffy kennel. While we were on our vacation our dogs were on their own vacation. They enjoyed plenty of outside playtime and rested in resort conditions while being treated like vips (very important puppies). Never had to worry because I had pictures sent as updates periodically through the day. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves their pets like family.”
“We are grateful for the love and care Alexandra & Jeff plus kids gave to Arley during a long weekend stay. It's always nice to have peace of mind when traveling and we had that with them. Arley was well cared for and happy to see us -- and it was great to see a few pics of Arley doing well in their home. We will book again in the future.”
“Glee did a fantastic job taking care of our Waddles. She sent multiple pictures everyday so that we could see that he was happy and active. It brought us a lot of peace of mind and really helped us enjoy our vacation to know that he was being so well cared for.”
“Ruby loved her time at Kim’s! This was her first time boarding and she came out super happy after all of the socialization time with the other dogs and Kim’s son. Kim gave frequent updates and clearly took great care of her!”
“Our dog had the best time staying with Meghan and Hakon! They made our time away from our pup easy with updates, photos, and genuine care for our dog. We felt confident she was in good hands!”
“Thanks, Cole! We always appreciate your wonderful care for Toffee. We know she has a great time with you & your family, and she comes home happily exhausted! We also appreciate your flexibility in our pick up times! You’re the best!!”
“Kristina was VERY responsive and great with our big old Riley boy. He came home happy and sleepy, like a dog post-vacation should be! We also got a ton of pictures over the weekend of Riley living his best life. Thanks for helping us out, Kristina!”
“Amazing job! Super informative and helped when she was anxious with other dogs. We loved all the pictures of her playing and appreciated the separate areas for meals. Overall it was a very pleasant first experience with the app and we will be back for future visits!”
“Great booking with Ryan and his wife. Got great updates and pictures. They have the perfect set up for dog sitting with a great yard, plenty of gates for separation, if needed, and gentle, but playful hosts.”
“Maria was absolutely fantastic with our slightly quirky Rhodesian Ridgeback, Leo! She and her husband took the best care of him and took him on all sorts of adventures. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“It was our first time ever leaving our dog with anyone overnight. She is 7 years old so we were quite worried about how she would do. Kyle and Desiree put us completely at ease - they are sooo kind and caring! Bella had a wonderful time with them and clearly became attached to their sweet daughter. We have already booked a follow-up week stay with them would highly recommend them!”
“Elizabeth cared for my high energy 3 year old German Shorthair Pointer and I was more than happy with her service! First off, she was extremely professional and educated when it came to Willows stay. We did a meet and great prior which eased a lot of my anxieties. She sent me photos of Willow while away and I could truly tell Elizabeth is passionate and caring when it comes to dogs! I will definitely be using her in the future and am so relieved my hunt for a good dog sitter is over! Willow was also very tuckered out after her stay with Elizabeth which tells me that she had a wonderful, fun-filled time during her stay. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah was wonderful with our dog! We received tons of updates and pictures throughout the time our dog was with Sarah, which helped us rest easy ? I would recommend Sarah to anyone, and will definitely be coming back again!”
“Emily and Hector were outstanding pet sitters for our dog, Nana. They were incredibly responsible and attentive, following our feeding instructions to the letter and ensuring Nana’s daily routine was maintained with care. We received frequent updates, including plenty of photos and videos, which kept us reassured and connected while we were away. They were quick to notify us of any health concerns and provided thoughtful care when needed. Nana was clearly happy and comfortable in their home, which was clean, cozy, and welcoming. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking with Emily and Hector again!”
“Joni is an exceptional sitter who deserves 'Star' status! From our first meeting, her dedication was clear—she even took detailed notes to ensure Pepper’s needs were met. Pepper had a wonderful time with her dog, Tilly, who is incredibly sweet. Beyond her care for the animals, Joni was 100% responsive and remarkably gracious when I made a mistake with my booking. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time at Aubrey’s house. He had lots of furry friends to play with, spent time exploring outside and received many cuddles and love. Aubrey was wonderful at sending daily updates and pictures. Our pup came back exhausted from all the fun he had. Can’t wait to use Aubrey again next time we are away!”
“Karla and family were such great hosts and very welcoming to both Gus and I. Karla was great about providing pictures and updates daily and took Gus on some great adventures and I could see he was getting plenty of attention. I would recommend booking with Karla and family if you want to feel at ease while out of town!”
“Charissa and Colin were great and I got lots of photos of our dog relaxing and getting some walks in. We will definitely reach out to Charissa again the next time we need to leave town without our pup.”
