“Bruce was wonderful with our pup, Cody! He was very communicative throughout the stay, and it was clear that Cody had a really nice time with him. We are grateful for his efforts to take such good care of Cody!!”
“Nadine and her family were wonderful in taking care of our dog, Stella, while we were away. They were very attentive to Stella’s needs and personality and kept to her regular routine. Nadine kept us updated of Stella throughout her stay which is important when apart from your pets. We will definitely be using Nadine and Daniel again as dog sitters and highly recommend them to anyone considering a sitter for their pets.”
“Karina did an excellent job looking after my dog while I was away for the weekend. This was my first time having someone watch him, and her regular updates and photos kept me from worrying. Her friendly dog was an added bonus, and it was clear from the moment I picked up Teddy that he had been well-loved and cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Karina again for future trips.”
“Absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care provided by Elizabeth, Sitter for our beloved kiwi! From the moment we entrusted our kiwi to her capable hands, we were impressed by her professionalism and genuine love for animals. Elizabeth went above and beyond to ensure our kiwi was comfortable, well-fed, and entertained, providing regular updates and photos that put our minds at ease. Her attention to detail and personalized care made all the difference. We highly recommend Elizabeth as your doggy Sitter ; anyone seeking top-notch care for their pets. Five stars all the way! Thank you Elizabeth 💚💚💚💚”
“Stephanie is such a caring provider. We can tell she really enjoyed Bleu’s company and it was mutual! She understands his individual needs. She planned activities to match his energy. She also had other dogs that had pleasant vibes. She gave us a full progress report. We all love Stephanie and cannot wait to reconnect in the future.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving my two dogs with Laura and her family. My babies felt right at home when we did the meet and greet so I knew they were going to be in great hands. I felt at ease when I would receive pictures each day of them living their best lives! 10/10 would recommend ❤️”
“Stefanie was great with my dog Daisy! I was happy to receive daily updates and Daisy looked like she was having a great time :) she even made a cat friend! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her for a long weekend.”
“Christina was great with our Trixie. She was very attentive to her special needs and very understanding about our concerns leaving our dog for several days for the first time. She kept us informed how things were going and was great administering meds as needed. We have already requested to rebook. Christina has a lovely home and family. Your dog will be safe and well cared for with her.”
“Saying I am satisfied and overly happy with Gordie's stay at Allyson's house can never be enough to show how much I truly loved Gordie's boarding with Allyson. I never felt Gordie was left alone or disengaged. She sent multiple pictures to prove this. She treated him like one of the family and I am sure he actually FELT like he was one of the family! I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home. haha. I don't have plans for a while...but when I do make some, I hope (and Gordie hopes too) that we can have Allyson watch him again, if she'll have us!”
“Tatyana was amazing, she took such good care of our puppy. Tatyana communicated to us during the whole weekend and went above and beyond for Charli, I would absolutely recommend.”
“Noemi and Dave did an incredible job pet sitting my two elderly dogs. One of my dogs can be a bit shy and anxious but he felt right at home with Noemi and Dave. They were incredibly responsive and sent frequent updates and photos. It was clear that my pups felt comfortable and were well cared for by Noemi and Dave.”
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“Loved Catherine! She took great care of Bear and it gave me peace of mind to know her house was safe, spotless, and dog friendly. I also liked that she only takes one client at a time to ensure full attention to my dog. 🫶🏽”
“Hazard took amazing care of my two cats. She sent daily photos and videos and even cute report cards. You can tell the cats were well cared for because they did not appear scared or anxious, she even had a whole room full of toys and scratches for them to feel at home.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of moochie:) they are very good with communication, providing updates and cute pictures of my dog Moochie. He had a great time playing with their dog Ollie. I was a little nervous in the beginning with small Moochie hanging out with big dogs but he seemed to get along with them! Happy he was able to play and socialize. Thank you Jieun, Matth and Ollie for treating moochie as your own for a few days ❤️so thankful 🙏🏼❤️”
“Jayme is amazing! I appreciated her attentiveness to Jazzy’s idiosyncrasies . She texted whenever she had questions in a way that I knew she really cared about him. Thank you for taking such good care of my little boy!”
About: I’ve always had pets in my home and absolutely love caring for animals! I currently have two sweet cats of my own, and over the years, family and friends have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats. While I’m new to Rover, I have hands-on experience with dog walking, feeding, pet sitting, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and give you peace of mind while you’re away! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to give your pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I also have a large yard and live in a quiet, walk-friendly neighborhood, making it a great environment for dogs who enjoy getting outside and exploring. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, some playtime and attention during the day, or care while you’re away, I’m happy to work with their routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, following their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I can also take dogs for walks around my quiet neighborhood and make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. When pets stay in my home, I want them to feel as comfortable as possible. Dogs who are comfortable around cats are welcome to enjoy the common areas of my home. For cats, I also have a separate room available so they can have their own quiet, comfortable space if they prefer to be away from other animals.

Her updates and photos were greatly appreciated and really ensured how well she took care of them. I will be booking with her again and again!”
“Jessica did drop ins for our little kitten, Mipha, while we were gone for a few days. She took excellent care of her, played and gave her affection. Throughout the whole time we were gone she sent photos and gave helpful updates about how Mipha was during each drop in. She was great! We'll definitely select her again!”

“Allison is the best! She is always so responsive and caring for all of our babies. She is our go-to whenever we need someone to step in and watch our animals when we are gone.”
“Catherine took wonderful care of my boys, 2 large male cats, on 2 separate occasions. What I particularly appreciated so very much was that when I came home after being away, they were very calm and not at all needy, which is a sure sign to me that they were well taken care of. It was just so reassuring to me to know that! I will be using Catherine regularly in the future!”
“Aisaia comes often to check in on my dogs while I’m at work. He’s always reliable, on time, and spends a little extra time with my dogs. I would definitely recommend him and will continue to book with him!”
About: I’ve dog sat and walked for multiple families and cared for cats for 10+ years. I am looking to help local families with pet care I work fully remote and have a flexible schedule so I am able to assist in mornings, during the day, and evening regularly and consistently I have two cats at my apartment currently and have owned pets my entire life. For dogs or cats that I sit, I ensure a safe environment to meet every family’s needs
“We rebooked and Heather did a wonderful job looking after a very Mischievous cat and his brother. Her communication is great and I feel confident knowing she is caring for our cats.”
About: Hi! My name is Katharine, and I’m currently a social work student working toward my bachelor’s degree with a passion for helping others, which includes animals! I’ve always loved being around pets and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after them. I’ve owned my dog for the past 10 years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily pet care, routines, exercise, and providing lots of love and attention. I also regularly dog sit and cat sit for my neighbors, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m currently a college student who is also completing an internship, so my availability is limited on certain days. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I am unavailable until after 4:30pm. The other days of the week, I have open availability to spend time with your pups! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules or routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision while keeping the home clean and respectful. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I connect with cats on a deep level and truly understand their unique personalities. My biggest joy comes from making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own space.
“I cannot recommend Leah highly enough! Leaving my cat, Bailey, is always stressful, but Leah made it completely worry-free. I received daily updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bailey wasn't just being fed, but was actually getting genuine affection and he loved every minute of it. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Sarah is the best! I have an older pup and an independent cat; right away she put my mind at ease as her experience and care for animals radiates. She communicated clearly and promptly with me from the pre-booking to after the visits. She followed every direction and went above and beyond. I loved her updates and photos; I appreciated her kindness and attention to details. My pets said they had an amazing time with her! I would recommend her and welcome her back any time.”
About: I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and I absolutely adore them! I’m now the proud cat mom of two sweet boys. I also regularly cat-sit for my neighbor when they’re away, caring for their cat and making sure they have everything they need while their owner is gone. I understand that cats have their own personalities, routines, and comfort levels. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them plenty of patience, attention, and care. Tell your cat I said “pspsps”!

“Bruce met Ozzy for a meet & greet and then cared for him the whole next day sending me updates and pictures on how everything was going. I was so happy to know Ozzy was in a safe environment and having fun. Bruce knows animals very well and is very generous, he made sure Ozzy felt super comfortable! As a pet owner this is everything; 10/10 from me and I would recommend Bruce to a friend”
“I would recommend Michelle!! Ozzy loves going to hers. Her care is great for dogs like mine who are excited, need exercise and supervision. Ozzy always gets to run around and play and Michelle is very tentative with his care! 5 stars definitely a great environment”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, I provide more than just pet sitting — I offer dependable, loving companionship tailored to each pet’s needs and one thing I can say I specialize in is accustoming to different routines based on your pet’s schedule and preferences, from long walks to playtime to quiet cuddle sessions! I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, love, and respect. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I work at a school which means my schedule could be flexible at times and I do have weekends off which gives me more than enough play time for your furry friends on the weekends! I have a large fenced backyard which gives the dogs a chance to run around and play freely. I also have a partner who is a Firefighter and a huge dog lover and has more of a flexible schedule on most days so on the weekdays when I am at work and he is not working they will still be with someone offering lots of love and attention.
“Noemi is incredible! She made Blue and I feel right at home. Her children are also incredibly sweet and loving. Blue had a fantastic time and took advantage of her large fenced in yard. I can tell he had a great time as he took a hearty nap as soon as we got home :) Thank you for all you do Noemi! Looking forward to return.”
“Kara was great! She was super flexible and willing to watch Shadow with what I believed was a last minute request! I would definitely recommend to anyone if you’re looking for a sweet and personable dog sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience using Ingrid’s doggy day care services for the first time. We started with a meet and greet and Ingrid is helping Shadow ease into the new space and other dog intros in a digestible fashion. She is quick to respond, has great communication, very professional and experienced, with attentiveness towards each dog’s unique needs. It’s a relief to know my pup is in safe, caring hands getting the love, attention, play and exercise he needs. We just moved to the area and are looking forward to booking with Ingrid regularly during my work days. Thank you, Ingrid!”
“OMG THE BEST! Mariana took such great care of Galileo. And she took care of ME as well. I felt so safe leaving the little man with her. There were constant updates and photos and so much love. I wish I lived closer so I could use her every day!!!”
“Stephanie took great care of our pup and sent us pictures throughout the day. It eased our minds about leaving our pup in a new place while touring the Museum. If we are ever in the area again we will plan to use her pet services again!”
“Bruno had an amazing time! He got to sunbathe, go on a walk, and clearly enjoyed himself all day. I was really nervous at first, but they sent me pictures throughout the day, which completely eased my fears. It meant so much to see how happy and comfortable he was. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him—highly recommended!!”
“Jordin was absolutely amazing with Ivy! She was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and I felt completely comfortable knowing Ivy was in her care. She kept me updated and made sure Ivy was happy and comfortable throughout her stay. It was clear that Jordin genuinely cared about Ivy and treated her like her own. I would definitely book with Jordin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Jieun & Matt took great care of our Frenchie! They sent multiple pictures & messages during her stay and we were so grateful they could accommodate our work schedule. I would definitely recommend them, thank you so much!”
“Amanda was great! We were travelling in the area and needed a last minute sitter for a few hours. Koda had a fun time at her house playing with the other dogs.”
“My fur baby requires a great deal of attention due to some health challenges. This makes me very careful about who cares for him. I am so Blessed to have Liza taking care of my lil guy. I would highly recommend her to people that need puppy ? care”
“Gwynne is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had!!! We tried other rover sitters but no one is as dedicated, responsive and caring as her. My dogs Bubble and Molly got two long walks in the scenic neighborhood, rolling time in the beautiful yard (safely leashed!!), cuddling time with mini humans. The dogs and the kids cannot be more adorable. Bubble and Molly couldn’t be any happier! They fell asleep five minutes after we picked them up. I highly recommend Gwynne as a wonderful dog sitter.”
About: I've been a dog owner for the last 20 years. All my dogs have been rescues, several have been shy dogs that needed extra TLC. I have a special talent connecting with shy dogs and helping them come out of their shell. I also love working with extroverted dogs who love to play and interact. I have a full-time mostly WFH job. I'm available for after-hour drop ins and walks, weekend visits, overnights, and boarding. I know how hard it can be to find petcare (especially during off hours) and I'd like to help with that. My home is safe and secure with a small fenced in backyard away from the road. I have two dogs to keep your pets company. I can help with crating your dog as well. Our home is quiet, serene, and private.
“Andrea was just wonderful. It was my first time leaving them with a sitter. I knew I could trust her with my babies right off the bat. She’s sweet and caring and communicated with me the whole time because I was anxious being away from them. It’s easy to see that she is a dog person to the core. Highly recommend!”
About: I bring 24 years of pet care experience, from raising a beloved cat for 21 years to caring for my current dog, Kylo, for 3 years. Your pup will enjoy a big, secure fenced backyard for play and plenty of loving attention! I work from home, so I’m always around to provide attentive care. My dog, Kylo, is my constant companion, and your pup will be treated like part of the family with plenty of supervision, playtime, and love throughout the day. I provide a safe, secure, and loving environment for every pet. With a fenced-in backyard in a quiet neighborhood, your pup can enjoy safe playtime and relaxation.

“Bruce is wonderful! He jumped in the help on absolutely no notice when my regular dogwalker got sick and walked my dog regularly (3x/week) for a month. Could not be happier and looking forward to hiring him again when the need arises”
“We are so happy with Jae as our dogwalker! She’s been walking our pup for a few months, and we’ve found her to be flexible, reliable and great with handling our dog (who can sometimes be challenging). He adores her, we adore her, 10/10 would recommend whole-heartedly!”
“Katharine did an excellent job walking my very shy dog Violet for an hour. She came over and spent time with Violet beforehand, so that Violet would not be scared of her. Katharine arrived on schedule and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I have already scheduled more walks soon and am so pleased to have found her.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I bring to every animal I work with. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, which has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs. I’ve also been a lifelong pet parent, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust caring for your pets. I tailor my care to each pet’s age, temperament, routine, and health needs, whether that means extra patience with a senior pet, medication assistance, reinforcing basic training, or simply giving them the love and companionship they’re used to at home. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, communication, and reliability, and I care for every pet as I would my own. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—and for their people to have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to accommodate drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute requests based on your pet’s needs. I provide care in my clients’ homes to ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions, maintain routines, and prioritize safety at all times. I communicate regularly with updates, photos, and messages, giving pet parents peace of mind while they’re away.
“Aisaia was great!! Very prompt on time, gave me dog a wonderful long walk and she returned very happy and relaxed. I will definitely reach out to him again in the future! Thank you Aisaia!!”
About: I was the primary caretaker of my family dog for about 10 years, while I was living at home, and I was a part-time dog sitter in college. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I’ll have plenty of time to tend to and play with your furry babies. I can make anytime during the week work! :) In someone else’s home I treat both the pet and the house with respect. I ensure I know exactly what the pet is used to: whether they sleep on the bed, use a crate, how they interact with other pets or children. I secure the perimeter (doors closed, yard gate locked), I follow any medication or behaviour instructions closely, and I keep a log of walks, meals, playtime, and potty breaks. At night I do a last check: water bowl full, lights are safe, any doors/windows secured, pet comfortable in its space. I aim to leave the home just as I found it, if not neater.
About: Caring for animals has been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home that always had two dogs at a time, and before moving out, my family had raised six wonderful dogs together. From energetic pups to older companions, I’ve experienced the full range of what it means to care for dogs through different stages of life. I currently share my home with two special-needs cats, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Managing medications, monitoring behavior changes, and creating a calm, safe environment are all things I take seriously. My primary goal when caring for your pet is simple: I want them to feel happy, secure, and relaxed while you’re away. I also know how important peace of mind is for owners. I’m communicative, reliable, and happy to provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and cared for. I treat every animal with gentleness, respect, and the kind of attention I would want for my own pets. I work remotely in IT for a nonprofit organization, which gives me a very flexible weekday schedule. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy having some furry company during the week. Whether that means a midday walk to break up my workday or a fuzzy companion nearby while I’m at my desk. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to structure my schedule around walks, feeding times, medication needs, or check-ins. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches, and you can expect consistent updates while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your routines and instructions carefully. I follow feeding schedules, medication needs, walking routines, and house rules closely so your pet’s world feels as consistent and familiar as possible while you’re away. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident everything is going smoothly. If your pet stays in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. They will have their own dedicated space in my finished basement office that is clean, hazard-free, and separate from my cats. This allows visiting pets to relax without feeling overwhelmed, and ensures everyone stays safe and stress-free. The space includes a comfortable couch just for them, plenty of room to stretch out, and a calm environment away from household noise. I’m home during the day, so they’ll receive regular supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention, balanced with quiet time to rest.
About: Hi, I’m Leah! I know how hard it is to trust someone with your pet, because I’m the same way with mine. That’s why I treat every dog or cat I care for like they’re my own. I’ve spent the last 10+ years working hands-on with animals, including time as a vet tech and kennel attendant. I now work remotely and would love to use my extra time to care for and love on your pets while you’re away! Whether your pet needs a calm walk, playful energy, or just a comforting presence while you’re away, I tailor my care to their personality and routine. I’m big on consistency, safety, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. You can expect: 🐶 Plenty of attention, patience, and affection 📸 Regular photo and text updates so you’re never wondering how things are going 🕒 On-time visits and clear communication 🏡 Respect for your home and your pet’s routine I’m especially great with pets who need a little extra reassurance, structure, or a sitter who truly pays attention to details. My goal is always for you to come home to a happy, relaxed pet, along with total peace of mind. I’d love to meet you and your pet! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet & greet 😊 I work fully remotely, so I am very flexible as far as walks, visits, or overnights go. Pet sitting is a passion of mine that I truly love and make time for outside of my regular 9-5. I am not able to host your pets currently due to having my own cat, but I am happy to come to you to make sure your pet is most comfortable and stays in their routine.
“Sarah is an amazing dog walker. Our dog can be a bit uneasy meeting new people, but Sarah knew exactly how to approach her and make quick friends. She was very communicative and professional. We will absolutely book with Sarah again!”
About: After years of for-friends & word of mouth dog & catsitting I'm making the jump to pro!

About: I’ve always cared for dogs for friends and family since I was in my teens. I’m comfortable with dogs of any breed large or small. I’m very active and can assist with walks and playing to get that energy out in a productive way! Currently transitioning careers so I have plenty of time to play and walk with your pups! Weekend availability also, just kindly let me know in advance. I’m very clean and organized and always leave a place better than I found it. I would bring that level of care to your home
About: I can’t remember a time when a dog wasn’t in my life. I love pups and I can love yours too! Taking dogs on walks and taking care of them throughout the day, I will be able to create a bond and relationship with your pup to give them the stimulate they need throughout the day. I trained my now 7 year old mixed lab, who was not an easy puppy; but through much consistency in training she is a well behaved dog who can walk on leash very well and listen to 10+ commands. I grew up with German Shepherds as well, so plenty of experience with big dogs. In high school, I volunteered over 50 hours at our local animal shelter, finding myself walking dogs, cleaning their kennels, giving them food and doing the 24/7 care for them I’m a current student in university so in between classes throughout the days I am available to give your pooch a nice walk and breeze from the great outdoors. I go at the pace of the dog and always carry poop bags and water in need of rest. I will be sure to give plenty of snuggles and affection to your pup! I can also double leash when walking in case of emergencies if the client wishes.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school. I am known as the dog-sitter in my neighborhood. When my neighbors go on vacation or away, I am always the first one called to watch their animals. While they are away, I feed and walk the dogs. I also have experience staying over night at various houses to dog sit. I’m currently working as a teacher, but we are off during the Summer. I have a lot of free time to take care of all of your pets needs. I am available Monday through Sunday. I will follow all of the instructions of the pet’s owner. I am available to walk, feed, play, and dog sit overnight. I will spend quality time with the pets.

“Valerie and her family are amazing hosts and extra loving caretakers. Jameson has his second extended stay with Valerie and he had a wonderful time. I take comfort in knowing he loves staying with Valerie, her children, and sweet Shakespeare when we are on vacation. They truly treat him like their own and he clearly loves them all. We will be back :)”
“Stefanie was great with my dog Daisy! I was happy to receive daily updates and Daisy looked like she was having a great time :) she even made a cat friend! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her for a long weekend.”
“Mari was fantastic! She kept updating me throughout the day about my puppy. She took him out on multiple walks and made sure his exercise needed were met consider my puppy was very high energy. I would definitely rebook.”
“Christopher was very accommodating and flexible. He went out of his way to pick up Cameo at a more ideal timing prior to my departure for my work trip. He sent daily updates and pictures of Cameo playing and answered any questions that I had. Cameo got lots of play time and came home happy and exhausted :)”
“Saying I am satisfied and overly happy with Gordie's stay at Allyson's house can never be enough to show how much I truly loved Gordie's boarding with Allyson. I never felt Gordie was left alone or disengaged. She sent multiple pictures to prove this. She treated him like one of the family and I am sure he actually FELT like he was one of the family! I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home. haha. I don't have plans for a while...but when I do make some, I hope (and Gordie hopes too) that we can have Allyson watch him again, if she'll have us!”
“My dog’s first time staying with Mariana. She came back happy, clearly receiving enough care and stimulation. I was sent plenty of pictures and updates, and did not worry while my dog was in the care of a new sitter.”
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
“Kara was amazing!! Going through a lot and I needed someone to take care of my two cats. She took them last minute and was so caring from the get go! One of my cats is very shy and he felt at home right away! I ended up extending the time because of my current situation. Will use her again!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“Bianka took great care of our blind dog Scooby! She sent frequent updates that included many pictures. Bianka was also super patient with Scooby and kept him company when he woke up barking in the middle of the night. We are so grateful for the care she provided Scooby!”
“Tina was great! She was flexible on timing, very communicative, sent great pictures of our dog, and he came home happy. Would recommend her highly and look forward to using her in the future.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of moochie:) they are very good with communication, providing updates and cute pictures of my dog Moochie. He had a great time playing with their dog Ollie. I was a little nervous in the beginning with small Moochie hanging out with big dogs but he seemed to get along with them! Happy he was able to play and socialize. Thank you Jieun, Matth and Ollie for treating moochie as your own for a few days ❤️so thankful 🙏🏼❤️”
“Davon was amazing. Constant communication and updates with photos showed Frankie had an amazing time. He was extremely comfortable and enjoyed every second of it. Would definitely book again in the near future. 10 out of 10 experience.”
“Jayme is amazing! I appreciated her attentiveness to Jazzy’s idiosyncrasies . She texted whenever she had questions in a way that I knew she really cared about him. Thank you for taking such good care of my little boy!”
