“Wil was really great with my dog, even though he is usually reactive he behaved wonderfully with him and I could tell he had a really good time there! I will definitely be booking again! There was some slight confusion though since I wasn’t told it wouldn’t be Francis herself watching my dog but rather her parents, which was fine as they were great with him but it was a surprise.”
“Carolina was amazing with Mucci!! She communicated well, sent updates and pictures, and made me feel comfortable the whole time. He looked relaxed and happy with her and her family and I appreciated how attentive she was to his needs. Thank you again for taking such good care of him. I would definitely book with you again.”
“Crystal was absolutely wonderful looking after our dog over the Christmas period. She sent regular updates and photos/videos, which really kept our minds at ease while we were away. Earlier in the year, our dog spent three days at a kennel and struggled quite a bit, so we were understandably anxious about leaving him again. The difference with Crystal was night and day. He spent seven nights in a loving home environment, had so much fun with the other dogs, and received genuine care and attention from Crystal and her family. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Crystal and will absolutely be using her again.”
“Brittany was so great! She sent lots of photos of all the fun our dogs were having, keeping my mind at ease. She walked the dogs and made sure they had plenty of exercise, and from the looks of it- a ton of fun. Absolutely phenomenal!”
“I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.”
About: Hello! I am Becky, I'm an Eastern Connecticut local whose been watching my friends, family, and acquaintances dogs and cats for 10+ years. I have given care to elderly dogs who had special needs and ran with young pups who need the exercise! I'd love to learn what you're looking for and see if I am the pup sitter for you. I do all the services provided on this website. I have two cats who love to meet new animals! Message me to learn more and book a meet and greet! I only work 1st shift Wed.-Fri. at my day job, so I have lots of time to give your fur babies attention! Lets set up a meet and greet and we can talk about what your pets needs are! If I am pet sitting in your home your fur baby will get lots of attention because of my limited work schedule. I'll take your dog(s) for walks daily. Dogs and other pets will get plenty of play time! I can cater to whatever needs your pet has! If you are boarding your dog(s) at my home I live on a quiet street great for walking dogs. I have two friendly cats at my house and a few roommate who can give extra attention while I'm at work during the day Wed.-Fri. Your pets will rarely be alone!
“Suzanne was fantastic with my pup in the four days I was out of town. Goldie was very nervous during the meet and greet and when first getting dropped off, but Suzanne made her feel right at home. She kept me updated with pictures and texts each day. I would not hesitate to recommend or use Suzanne in the future!”
“Karen took our Poodle puppy on a last minute request and we’re so happy she did! She stayed in contact throughout, sent tons of photos and videos and was very flexible with pickup and drop off time. She even gave us a little parting gift! Would definitely recommend Karen if you are in the New London/Mystic area!”
“Our pup was in great care with Elisa and her family for a week while my family and I traveled. Elisa provided updates showcasing our pet’s happiness, comfort, and playfulness in her home. After sharing that our dog has congenital knee issues, Rob, her partner, even installed another step on their dog ramp for our dog to climb up comfortably. We hope to rebook with Elisa again when needed!”
“My dog Hank had a great stay with Sydney and her family! He doesn't get along with every dog, but he seemed to have quite a bit of fun with their little guy Knightley — despite a considerable difference in age and size! (Approx. 15 lbs. vs. 85 lbs.) Sydney was very communicative and gave me daily updates on how Hank was doing, along with pictures, for the week that we were gone. I would definitely recommend her for boarding!”
“Tina is by far one of the best dog sitters. She had my two fur babies for almost a week and was quick to respond and send updates as well as pictures of the dogs throughout their stay. I am extremely happy as Tina and her 2 beautiful daughters all exceeded my expectations. I will definitely use her going forward and recommend anyone who is looking for a sitter for your pet and want to feel comfortable with the person caring for them, Tina is that person. I promise you will not be disappointed ?. Thank you Tina & girls for everything. I hope to see you all soon ???”
“Ryan did a great job taking care of Romeo for the 6 days I was on vacation. He sent daily pictures and updates and was responsive. I love that his kids were also involved in intersecting with/ caring for Romeo and I saw how playful the my were with him. I will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Our dog stayed with Erica and Thomas & family for 2 nights. We were given updates throughout the stay. This was appreciated as it was his first time there. A beautiful countryside home with a big yard and drop off and pick-up went smoothly. Marino will be back.”
“Torie was great with our two morkies, one of which has PLE and has some intense dietary restrictions. She was very communicative and quick to respond during the stay! Thank you Torie!”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”
“Gio had a great one day stay with Nicole! Definitely would book again. She sent a couple of photos and I was shocked to see her holding Gio when I came to pick him up! He doesn't usually like other people holding him haha so that's a good sign. Fenced in area and other dogs make Nicole's a perfect place for my dog.”
“We were extremely satisfied with Ansley, she sent multiple updates of Lola and I will definitely be rebooking. She made sure our puppy was comfortable first with her and her dog before booking and that really made me super satisfied. I am extremely happy that i booked with her!”

“Charlene always goes above and beyond. Writes marvelous behavioral posts. I never felt far away from my cats, because she kept me apprised of their behavior and activities in such entertaining detail. Charlene is in the top tier of sitters and is very dependable. I recommend Charlene as a pet caretaker without reservation. .”
About: I've had cats for most of my life, since I was about 4 years old. I also cat sit for my aunt whenever she needs me to. I've taken care of domestic short-hair, Siamese, Maine Coon, and Russian blue cats, from kittens to adults.
“Mary took great care of my cat over the weekend. He's usually very shy, but she got him to come out and sent the cutest pictures. She was very kind, easy to communicate with, and made the whole process stress-free.”
“Elizabeth did a wonderful job caring for our cat Bud while we went out of town for two nights. He warmed up to her quickly and seemed very comfortable from the many check in pics. She was responsive, flexible and went above and beyond by cleaning up after him when he made a mess. I would highly recommend her services! I usually impose on a friend when we go away so I’m thrilled to know I have another responsible person to call on who Bud likes and trusts. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“This is Kourtney’s second time watching my cat Piper. She was wonderful!! She communicated with me the entire time and I had complete trust in her! She was extremely flexible with me. I had to extend my trip and she was able to work with me. Highly recommend hiring her for your fur babies!”
“Natalie was an awesome pet sitter for our two cats! She made such a great connection with them and made sure they were well fed and played with. She takes the best photos of your fur babies and is always in contact so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands! We will definitely be using her again when we go away!”
“Nicole is a wonderful sitter! She watched my cat Otis for me semi last minute on a holiday weekend. He is a shy kitty but he was comfortable with her immediately. She was on time, communicative, and super sweet. Highly recommend!”
“I can’t be more delighted to have Serena care for my girls. When I met up with Serena, she had a kind, soft demeanor with excellent communication skills. During her time, she bonded with my anxious kitty to the point kitty would follow Serena around the house and would wait by the door as she came back with the mail/trash. I am so appreciative of Serena and will ask for her to come back again.”
“Rebekah was extremely responsive and accommodating, and my cat seemed to really like her when she did her drop in visits while I was away. Very pleasant experience all around, highly recommend.”
“Olivia is great with communication both in person during the initial meet & greet and through text messaging. She sent daily photos of my 2 cats. Was thoughtful enough to provide extra water for my cats when she saw a need for it. I booked her again for the following month.”
“She takes great care of my kitties with their individual needs and is incredibly kind and friendly! I'd recommend her in a heartbeat. She even helped me out with a last minute request due to unexpected travel and is really compassionate.”

“This was my first time ever leaving Ange. I was a little nervous, but everything went great over all. Carolina text me through out the day and made me feel so comfortable with me leaving Ange. I will definitely use Carolina in the near future.”
“Elizabeth and her family took such good care of our dog for the day. They provided a wonderful home with spacious backyard for him to run around with their golden retrievers, AND took him hiking in the snow (which our dog loves). We really appreciated Elizabeth accepting our booking request with pretty short notice as well. We definitely recommend Elizabeth!”
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and some friendly neighborhood chickens. I love them all! I’ve been walking dogs since I was a freshman in high school and I don’t think i’ll ever get tired of it! I have a very flexible schedule since I only have a part time job, and I take quite a bit of work from this app :) I love taking walks, so I provide anywhere from two to four potty breaks or trips outside throughout the day. I also enjoy hiking and I like to bring pups with a bit more energy to tag along. I’m more than happy to stay in your home with your pets if discussed and my main concern is that your pets are happy, safe, and just like you left them.

“Shelby was wonderful!!!! She took such great care of Flash and I felt comfortable with him on her care the entire time. She sent plenty of pictures and was super communicative. Flash was tired and happy when we picked him up!”
About: I’ve taken care of family friends and neighbors dogs and cats for over 10 years. Love being able to spend time with them and the opportunity to see them happy. I currently work remote so have time during the day and nights to take care of all animals. Usually busy from noon to four to try and enjoy the back half of a ski day I enjoy taking dogs for walks or playing fetch. I am a very energetic person and feel well suited for any environment with all kinds of pets
About: I'll be honest, I am doing this because I need extra money. But I want to make extra money spending time with your pets because I love being around animals and I want to spend actual time with them giving them love, exercise, and a good time. I am able to spend actual time with them as I am a teacher and do not work during the summer. Animals deserve to be shown affection as much as possible throughout the day especially when a lot of their time is spent waiting for owners to come home. Don't let your pets wait around for you, give them someone to hangout with in the meantime! I love taking dogs on walks and hikes! I know how important it is for animals to be cared for meaning being fed, bathed, and given a good rubbin. If you have any questions, feel free to ask (: I am a teacher on summer break so I am fully available for your pets! I love to take them for walks and play with them.

“We were in town visiting from Virginia and needed to find someone to watch our baby Jax for a day. So glad we found Elisa! She was very responsive to our request and was able to accommodate our change in pick up time. I can tell her and her family treated Jax like one of their own because he adapted so quickly! And I can tell he had a lot of fun because he instantly went to sleep. We’ll definitely book Elisa again if we need another sitter when we’re back in town!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by and caring for all kind of animals (even monkeys). Family, friends, colleagues, and strangers, have relied on me to care for their dogs, cats, and more for years; Knowing that I will love their pets like I love my own, my clients have confidence and trust when booking with me! As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and able to provide consistent care and attention. I intentionally only accept one additional dog at a time so each pet receives plenty of supervision and individualized care I have one dog, Ollie, that loves to play and keep every guest company. I am in a two story duplex with a small unfenced yard, but have an outdoor lead for potty breaks and plenty of areas for walking in my neighborhood. If necessary, for separation/calm down time, I have a baby gate available that can break up my kitchen and living room and I also have a spare room upstairs. There will be no instances where our pets are left alone unmonitored for the safety of both parties.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I will take care of yours as they were my own. I love being outdoors so they won’t ever be bored. I will make sure your pup is taken care of while you are away, I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving them so I will send updates and pics to put you at ease if needed. I will adhere to rules and training that you are working on with the dog. I will ask questions to see what exactly you and they need. If needing overnight care you can be assured I will look after them and they will not be lonely. We will socialize and play until it’s time for them to go home. I can’t wait to meet all of the new paws! I work part time and very flexible. Off sat-Monday and during the week I’m off at two! I walk my dog everyday after work and we love going to places where he can run around and have some fun! My dog is a part of my family. He has a very comfortable life and his choice of space on the couch. We go for walks everyday and he loves playing in the yard

“Charlene was fantastic, and great with our puppy Porter! She reached out in the morning to confirm, she was prompt, and very patient. She was happy to join myself on a walk with Porter through an area she was not familiar with, giving her a chance to become familiar with it. Charlene was very attentive and helpful on our walk, I trust her to take good care of my boy in the future!”
About: I've had cats since I was about 4 years old, and trained my own service dog (adopted as a senior from a pound) from 2016-2023, when she sadly passed. I've taken care of a range of pets belonging to family, friends, and family's friends and coworkers. I can handle pets of all ages, from kittens/puppies to senior animals, as well as working on training and house-breaking. I'm currently only working part-time with very few hours, so pet care is honestly how I'd like to spend my spare time and make my income. I'm very focused on the details of individual pet's care. I always make sure I understand the feeding schedules and amounts, how often the animals need to go outside, whether they can be off-leash in a fenced in area or if they need to be on an outside line or on a leash, whether or not cats go on walks, and I'm very careful to not leave human food around for them to get into. I always ask as many questions as possible to make sure I provide the best care for the pets I'm looking after.
“Elizabeth was amazing! I want to start with this summary statement because it is the bottom line of our experience. From the meet and greet till the last detail, Elizabeth was just wonderful! She cared for our girl like she was her own! She is caring, professional, qualified, and an excellent communicator! We will definitely be asking for her help in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals. I’ve had 1 bird, 1 ferret, 5 cats, and 6 dogs. I’ve trained 2 Dogs to obey basic commands and good potty habits. Im available for boarding on Fridays through Sundays. I work from home on Friday and I don’t work the weekends at all. I can also be flexible during week days as needed. I take my dogs for walks every 3 hours or at their request. We play fetch and tug-o-war in my backyard. My basement is a complete doggy daycare.
About: Hello! My name is Meghan and I have a love and passion for all kinds of animals. I am currently a part time veterinary receptionist/assistant and am available for walks and drop-in visits Sunday through Wednesdays. I have never known a life without pets. Growing up, my family always had dogs, including two German Shepherd police K9s and even a dog who used a wheel chair. I have also bred and whelped both German shepherd and Labrador Retrievers. My husband and I currently have two Labrador retrievers, four cats and four goats. I would love to take my passion for animals and turn it into a business one day, which is why I decided to start on Rover. I am currently available for dog walking and drop in visits for socializing and potty breaks. Please contact me for any kind of pet care you may need! I am currently a part time veterinary receptionist/assistant! I am available for walks and drop-in visits Sunday through Wednesday. Please send me a message with your specific needs. I have reliable transportation, and will treat your pets as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness is the most important thing to me.
“Avery was great with my dog Cici! She took her on nice long walks, was super easy to communicate with, and most importantly Cici loved her. I really appreciated the updates and how smooth everything was. Would definitely book with her again :)”
“Trish (Patricia) is wonderful. Her communication is great and her love for animals is apparent. I know my pepper is in good hands. I’m so glad I found her. I highly recommend Trish for your pet needs.”
About: No rule will be bent, no abnormal behavior will go unreported, and no tummy will be left unrubbed! I've done it all! Boarding, overnights, drop in visits, walks, appointment escort, etc... I just love animals. I've never met an animal I didn't get along with and never feel better than when one returns that love. I know it can be challenging and, frankly, scary to trust someone else with your pets- they're family after all! That's why I consider the role of pet sitter as the most important part of my day. You want pictures? You got 'em! You need updates? Expect a detailed text! You want someone to reassure your babies to not worry and their mom(s)/dad(s) will be home soon? I will be as clear with them as if they were a human child! I get it, you worry they will feel scared when you aren't home. That's why I am here. Food, walks, and playtime are all well and good, but I believe it is just as important to make them feel as comfortable as I can with as much reassurance as I can give. I am a weekly volunteer at Kitty Harbor in Griswold so when it comes to cats, I am experienced in all sorts of mishaps- litter accidents, dirty butt, scratch boo boos, and more. I am also experienced in administering medication. Of course, if you're kitty has a way that works for them, then that's how we'll get it done! As for the pups, I am always excited to get a chance to go for a walk or even a full on hike! Exercise is always more fun when a four legged friend is involved. If you're training a young puppy, or even an old fellow, just let me know exactly when I should be disallowing and you can feel comfortable they won't be learning any bad behavior from me. One last note: boundaries are so important. Every animal is different and every animal has their own limits. If your kitty doesn't like to be pet, then no pets they shall have. If your dog doesn't like to be watched while they eat, then my eyes shall be shut. I hate being stressed, why would I put that on anyone else? I work a 9-5 in Norwich so I am available early mornings and evenings for visits. If you're in Norwich, I can be available mid day for a lunch time drop in as well. I have reliable transportation and a desire to start and/or end my day with furry friends. As for weekends, I am always booked afternoon into the evening on Sunday for my time with the kitties at the Kitty Harbor, but other than that I can have plenty of room on the weekends to add your babies in to my routine. Routine and boundaries. Whatever they are used to, that's what they'll get from me! I hate being stressed, why would I want to do anything to make an animal unnecessarily stressed?
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always loved being around them. My girlfriend and I have an Australian Shepherd of our own who’s a huge part of our family, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup. I’m the go to dog sitter for friends and family, one of my friends even calls me the “dog whisperer.” I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they love to play or just want someone to hang out with. I’m confident handling dogs on walks and keeping up with leash training and good habits. I’m also happy to feed, administer medication, and take care of any special routines or needs your furry family member has. I’ll treat your dog like they’re one of my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m here for you and for your fur baby, whatever you need I will do it! With that my dog is on a good routine, 7am-7:30am she goes potty 8:30am-9am breakfast 10:30am-11:00am she goes for her first walk for about 30mins to 1.5hours depending on the day Between 12:30pm-4pm we do about 5-10mins of mental stimulation training 5pm-6:30pm she gets dinner and an after dinner walk 7pm-the rest of the night we chill I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run around! The doggos can run around and play with each other or train.
“Thanks for spending the time with Jenny walking her and letting her interact with the kids. That socialization is so important and also wears her out. She does love a car ride!”
About: I have been pet sitting for 8 years, but have been a lover of animals my whole life. I have cared for all sorts of animals, from dogs and cats, to rabbits, turtles, goats, and birds. I give every animal the attention they deserve and I treat each animal as if they were my own. I am trustworthy, kind, punctual, and dedicated to the welfare of all animals in my care.

“My dogs love Doreen. She is wonderful with them. She is so patient, Macy can be a little challenging when meeting new people, and takes her a long time to warm up, but it only took a few minutes. That right there speaks volumes. I highly recommend Doreen and will use her again soon.”
About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds and sizes of dogs ever since I was little! I love being around them and taking care of them!! :) Looking to take care of fur babies and give them the love they deserve. I have a pretty flexible schedule! I look forward to hearing from you :) I have a lot of experience with pets and will always make sure they have everything they need & lots of love! I’ll always do my best at keeping them safe and happy.
About: I've lived with dogs nearly my whole life, and cats for half of it. I have taken care of said pets for years and been an in-family pet sitter on numerous occasions. My mother frequently cares for other pets through apps like this/through friends, and I assist her with that when needed. At the moment, I care for my mother's pets when she leaves town for any length of time (1 small/medium dog, 1 cat). Otherwise, I'm a free agent. Some of the services listed on the app have the potential to overlap (such as a visit and a walk), I don't consider the price to be totally compounding, just let me know and we can figure out what works best. I'd imagine this is on a situational basis. I'll pet/feed/walk them and am able to follow directions as well as any human, should your pet require specific, or unique, handling. I can usually read pet body language pretty well, but have no specific training in it. If there are any areas of confusion for me, I'll be sure to ask questions to make sure your pet is cared for properly.
About: I'll be honest, I am doing this because I need extra money. But I want to make extra money spending time with your pets because I love being around animals and I want to spend actual time with them giving them love, exercise, and a good time. I am able to spend actual time with them as I am a teacher and do not work during the summer. Animals deserve to be shown affection as much as possible throughout the day especially when a lot of their time is spent waiting for owners to come home. Don't let your pets wait around for you, give them someone to hangout with in the meantime! I love taking dogs on walks and hikes!

“Crystal was absolutely wonderful looking after our dog over the Christmas period. She sent regular updates and photos/videos, which really kept our minds at ease while we were away. Earlier in the year, our dog spent three days at a kennel and struggled quite a bit, so we were understandably anxious about leaving him again. The difference with Crystal was night and day. He spent seven nights in a loving home environment, had so much fun with the other dogs, and received genuine care and attention from Crystal and her family. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Crystal and will absolutely be using her again.”
“Brittany was so great! She sent lots of photos of all the fun our dogs were having, keeping my mind at ease. She walked the dogs and made sure they had plenty of exercise, and from the looks of it- a ton of fun. Absolutely phenomenal!”
“I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.”
About: Hello! I am Becky, I'm an Eastern Connecticut local whose been watching my friends, family, and acquaintances dogs and cats for 10+ years. I have given care to elderly dogs who had special needs and ran with young pups who need the exercise! I'd love to learn what you're looking for and see if I am the pup sitter for you. I do all the services provided on this website. I have two cats who love to meet new animals! Message me to learn more and book a meet and greet! I only work 1st shift Wed.-Fri. at my day job, so I have lots of time to give your fur babies attention! Lets set up a meet and greet and we can talk about what your pets needs are! If I am pet sitting in your home your fur baby will get lots of attention because of my limited work schedule. I'll take your dog(s) for walks daily. Dogs and other pets will get plenty of play time! I can cater to whatever needs your pet has! If you are boarding your dog(s) at my home I live on a quiet street great for walking dogs. I have two friendly cats at my house and a few roommate who can give extra attention while I'm at work during the day Wed.-Fri. Your pets will rarely be alone!
“Suzanne was fantastic with my pup in the four days I was out of town. Goldie was very nervous during the meet and greet and when first getting dropped off, but Suzanne made her feel right at home. She kept me updated with pictures and texts each day. I would not hesitate to recommend or use Suzanne in the future!”
“Our pup was in great care with Elisa and her family for a week while my family and I traveled. Elisa provided updates showcasing our pet’s happiness, comfort, and playfulness in her home. After sharing that our dog has congenital knee issues, Rob, her partner, even installed another step on their dog ramp for our dog to climb up comfortably. We hope to rebook with Elisa again when needed!”
“My dog Hank had a great stay with Sydney and her family! He doesn't get along with every dog, but he seemed to have quite a bit of fun with their little guy Knightley — despite a considerable difference in age and size! (Approx. 15 lbs. vs. 85 lbs.) Sydney was very communicative and gave me daily updates on how Hank was doing, along with pictures, for the week that we were gone. I would definitely recommend her for boarding!”
“Tina is by far one of the best dog sitters. She had my two fur babies for almost a week and was quick to respond and send updates as well as pictures of the dogs throughout their stay. I am extremely happy as Tina and her 2 beautiful daughters all exceeded my expectations. I will definitely use her going forward and recommend anyone who is looking for a sitter for your pet and want to feel comfortable with the person caring for them, Tina is that person. I promise you will not be disappointed ?. Thank you Tina & girls for everything. I hope to see you all soon ???”
“Ryan did a great job taking care of Romeo for the 6 days I was on vacation. He sent daily pictures and updates and was responsive. I love that his kids were also involved in intersecting with/ caring for Romeo and I saw how playful the my were with him. I will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Our dog stayed with Erica and Thomas & family for 2 nights. We were given updates throughout the stay. This was appreciated as it was his first time there. A beautiful countryside home with a big yard and drop off and pick-up went smoothly. Marino will be back.”
“Torie was great with our two morkies, one of which has PLE and has some intense dietary restrictions. She was very communicative and quick to respond during the stay! Thank you Torie!”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”
“Gio had a great one day stay with Nicole! Definitely would book again. She sent a couple of photos and I was shocked to see her holding Gio when I came to pick him up! He doesn't usually like other people holding him haha so that's a good sign. Fenced in area and other dogs make Nicole's a perfect place for my dog.”
“We were extremely satisfied with Ansley, she sent multiple updates of Lola and I will definitely be rebooking. She made sure our puppy was comfortable first with her and her dog before booking and that really made me super satisfied. I am extremely happy that i booked with her!”
“Nina was great and we will definitely use her again. She had no problem managing our playful puppy, sent pictures throughout the day, and took great care of her. She was great at communicating and our puppy returned to us happy and healthy.”
“Jessica was a wonderful host for our dog, Ruthie. She would send us daily pictures of Ruthie playing with other dogs. She would share highlights of Ruthie's day and notify us of any concerns that came up. I highly recommend that anyone who wants thorough and loving attention for their dog board with Jessica.”
