“Miranda took wonderful care of our border collie, Oliver, during his overnight stay last week. She is caring, attentive and communicative, sending multiple updates and pictures. We are so excited she agreed to have Ollie for an extended stay while we are on vacation in June. It is incredibly reassuring to know he will be so well cared for while we are away!”
“Anas and Tate were amazing with our doodle puppy, Toni, during our trip to Gainesville for UF graduation. After a last-minute cancellation from our original sitter, we were stressed—but meeting Anas put us completely at ease. He was kind, professional, and kept us updated with photos and videos. Toni clearly had a great time! We’re so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter.”
“Ashley H. was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was communicative, professional, and incredibly caring. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes pride in providing exceptional care. Throughout the stay, Ashley kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My Rocky B. was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail, reliability, and warm personality. I would highly recommend Ashley H. to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter on Rover. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Michelle is a wonderful sitter. She accommodated my last-minute request for a meet-and-greet, even without Molly. This was Molly’s first time being boarded with her, and she took excellent care of her. Molly came home safe, happy, and well cared for. Michelle made us feel very comfortable about leaving Molly in her care. She followed Molly’s schedule perfectly and treated our fur baby with so much love. Truly the best sitter in Gainesville—especially if you’re visiting your human babies at the university! :) Highly recommend her, and we’re so glad to have found her.”
“High quality sitters, I’m a repeat customer and I am always impressed with their work! Great communication and obvious effort and care to my puppy’s needs.”
“We’ve had Autumn watch our puppy Blue a couple times now and she’s so amazing! So easy to get ahold of and takes such good care of Blue. Couldn’t thank her enough for being so loving to him! We get multiple pictures of him while we are gone and that’s nice to see he’s in such good hands! Thanks so much for being so great Autumn!!”
“Einstein was quickly comfortable with Nina and she did a great job accommodating all of his quirks. It's clear he'd be happy going again, and that's all I need to know!”
“Felix could not have been cared for any better. From day one I could tell that my pup had found a home away from home. They fussed over him and showered him with love, took him out on multiple walks a day and played with him. I know Felix is going to miss them.”
“Sage is great! She kept me updated and asked questions to make sure Kane was being taken care of in the best way. Kane enjoyed his time with her and her fur babies! Thank you Sage!”
“Brenda took excellent care of Tiba! She sent many updates and was very attentive to all of my senior pup's needs. She was also very accommodating when I needed to change my booking.”
“Josephine and family took really good care of Shiloh my pup. Shiloh seemed to be living life and having loads of fun, he got his nails trimmed and a bath, 8 day's may have been a little long for him since he never experienced me being gone so long but, he played with other pups, overall im extremely impressed by the Love ❤️ this family gave Shiloh and he is now home lying on couch sleeping, tomorrow he'll be back to his home life, I'll definitely be checking for Josephine's availability from time to time.”
“Danielle took such wonderful care of my puppy! I really appreciate how flexible and thorough she was when I booked Bella to board with her. I also really loved receiving daily pictures and updates where Bella looked like she was having such a great time.”
“Amanda takes such great care of my girls! She made them (& me!) feel comfortable upon arrival by showing us the room and beds they’d be staying in. My dogs can be very high energy and she was patient and helped them feel right at home!”
“Jonathan always takes great care of Olive! Olive truly enjoys going to his house and hiding in all of the blankets. This is my second time leaving Olive in his care, she was happy to be going back and I could tell she remembered spending time there, that put me at ease while I was out of town. Will definitely book again in the future”
“Lucky had an absolutely blast with Terra and her doggy crew when he was with them for a whole week! Lucky loved running around with other dogs and he was able to do just that in Terra’s HUGEEEE yard! Terra sent daily photo/video updates and they made us smile everyday on our trip 🥰 Thank you so much for taking care of our baby the same way we do, we can’t wait for his new sibling to arrive and they can both play in Terra’s yard again!”
“It was really great having Vanessa taking care of my dog. She was really great informing us of how our dog was doing through the day and she was really sweet with our dog. We are truly grateful for a peaceful trip knowing our dog was being taken care of.”
“Dana was amazing as always. She was so accommodating of our schedule, sent us updates during Rex’s stay, and, most importantly, took such good care of Rex. She is definitely one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had!”

“Amber was amazing! I was very nervous about leaving my cats for the first time especially since my one cat is on meds and I can’t leave him alone. He also has a weird set up where he has to be nebulized. Amber reassured me 100 % that everything was going to be ok. I recommend her 11/10 to anyone with their fur babies.”
“My cat is not the friendliest of fellows but Mona was able to socialize just fine with him. She kept me appraised of any issues he might be having and sent lots of photos each visit. We will try to book her again next time!”
“Danica took excellent care of Binky! I appreciated the many photos she provided each day as well as her detailed reports. When I have used pet sitters in the past I have had a lot of anxiety regarding the quality of care, but with Danica I had no worries whatsoever and had that piece of mind during my time away. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Friederike did a fantastic job taking care of my cat Nova while I was out of town! She made sure to keep her active and stimulated, but recognized her routine very quickly to make each visit fit Nova’s needs. She kept me up to date and sent the cutest photos of her daily drop-in visits. I would definitely book Friederike again and highly recommend her!”
“Madison was amazing checking in on our two cats while we were out of town! She cleaned the litter boxes, refill food and water, and played with our cats. Our cats really loved her! We will definitely book Madison again!”
“Lori B was the first time I've used the Rover service. She made my travel worry free by always being in touch and her knowledgeable care of my rather unusual situation with the cats. Excellent.”
“Alyssa did a wonderful job with our cats! She is very friendly and communicative. You can tell she really loves animals. We felt like our kitties were in great hands. Thanks again!”
“We needed someone to administer our cat’s daily insulin injections while we were away and Katlyn was a great choice! She was thorough in her care, stayed while she ate, and sent us many photos of our fur baby. Would definitely rebook”
“I’m pretty sure our cats didn’t want us to come home! I have never been so confident that they were in good hands before. She played with them every visit, gave them lots of Churu (which they now expect three times a day!), and showed them so much love and attention. We received many videos and photos every day (including my new favorite photos of Freya and Hiro!). I cannot recommend Rong enough. She is a precious jewel.”
“Haley was wonderful. She looked in our cats and was very communicative with us. She even cleaned their bowls in between giving them treats which I appreciated it. Haley sent great photo updates and was always responsive in a timely manner. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Katherine does such a good job taking care of my cats and loves them like her own! She is extremely professional and leaves great, detailed reports so I know my kitties are receiving great care while I’m away. I highly recommend!”
“Sarah was so great! Highly recommend. She was very professional/prompt and she provided detailed updates that made me so confident that my cats were being well cared for while I was gone.”
“Rachel was an excellent cat sitter! She was timely, followed instructions and played and spent time with my cat. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my cat at home for a while. I will definitely use Rachel again! Thank you.”
“Took care of our two kitties and did a great job! Communicated with me in a timely manner when needed and made sure the cats were well taken care of. I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“We would hire Owen again. You could tell from the pictures Owen sent us that Eevee really enjoyed his visits. He also did some extra tasks for us like getting our mail, putting chemicals in our pool and watering our plants. He even cleaned out some perishable items in our fridge that I had forgotten to remove before our trip.”
“Kim was great! From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear she cared about spending time with our cat. She gave us peace of mind while traveling. We are so thankful she was able to help us out! Thank you Kim!”
About: I took care of my best friends cats while they worked during college and family friends while they were on vacations. To this day my best friends cat comes running when I walk in the door and it warms my heart!

“I initially wanted to hire her to walk Koda twice daily. I’m glad she suggested he go to her place for doggy day care. I can tell he is having a blast. The family is very friendly. They’ve just earned a regular customer.”
“Our pup got A+ care with Kimberly. She was also very communicative throughout our dog's visit and sent us cute pictures showing how much fun she was having. Highly recommend!!”
“Samantha is wonderful! She is flexible, easy going, and shows sincere care and love for my dogs, Teddy and Lou. I found her very helpful in terms of transportation for the dogs too. My dogs enjoyed their time with her and her husband. I am definitely planning to use her services again.”
“Brenda and her mom took great care of my little boy for the day while I took care of some appointments. He had their company as well as their dog Scooby's. He came home happy and relaxed, and I'm happy to have found a great fit for daycare for my dog with isolation anxiety.”
“Maria and her family are VERY NICE. We were very worried at first since our dog has never been left with other people before but she made us feel at ease. Our dog was very happy and if we ever go back to gainesville again we will definitely contact her again :)”
About: Calm, attentive care tailored to your pet. ☀️ Summer Safety Advisory ☀️ Due to Florida’s extreme heat and humidity, dogs are at serious risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke in as little as 10–15 minutes of exertion during peak sun hours. Because of this, all walks during late spring through early fall may be shortened or adjusted for safety and replaced with enrichment-based activities, shaded sniff time, or indoor play when appropriate. Your dog’s health and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I provide thoughtful, enrichment-focused care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is not just to “get through” a visit, but to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a background in wildlife sanctuary rehabilitation and have served as an adoptions director, which means I’ve worked hands-on with animals of all temperaments, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications ( just not injections), managing multi-pet households, and supporting shy, anxious, senior, or special-needs pets. My approach to pet care is informed by ongoing education in dog behavior, body language, and force-free, reward-based training. I pay close attention to stress signals, pacing, and environment, and I adjust each visit accordingly. Whether your dog needs structured activity, calm companionship, or space to decompress, I aim to meet them where they are. 🦴 Bonus Enrichment Option I also manage one of Gainesville’s top-rated private Sniffspots, The Zoomie Zone, located in Midtown. This fully private, reservation-only yard is ideal for dogs who benefit from off-leash play without the pressure of public dog parks. Many clients choose to incorporate Sniffspot visits into walks or drop-ins as a way to provide safe zoomies, sniff-based enrichment, or low-distraction decompression time. If you’re interested in adding a Sniffspot visit to your booking, feel free to ask. Returning clients can also receive discount codes for independent bookings. Whether we’re heading out for a structured walk, enjoying shaded sniff time, or keeping things low-key indoors, I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care you can trust. 🗓️ Scheduling and booking process To make sure every booking is safe, smooth, and a good fit, I require a complimentary 15-minute meet and greet for all new clients. This takes place at the location where care will be provided and gives us a chance to review your pet’s routine, home setup, safety needs, and comfort level. **Meet and greet exceptions:** * Cats do not require a meet and greet unless there are medications, behavioral concerns, or a complicated home setup * Puppies under five months may be booked without a meet and greet when appropriate * Returning clients may fast-track future bookings Please schedule your meet and greet at least 72 hours before your first requested service so we have enough time to coordinate properly. After the initial meet and greet, you are all set for future bookings. If you move to a new home or apartment, you are welcome to schedule another visit so I can become familiar with the new layout, entry instructions, and pet-care setup. 🚶♀️ Dog walks and drop-ins I organize dog walks and cat drop-ins into efficient daily routes using flexible arrival windows. This helps reduce unnecessary travel time while still allowing me to provide thoughtful, attentive care during every visit. Dog-care windows: * Standard visits generally take place between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM * Morning visits may begin as early as 8:00 AM * Evening visits may be available for dogs who need additional flexibility **Cat-care windows:** * My preferred cat visit window is between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM * Visits requiring medication or strict timing will be scheduled around those needs whenever possible Dogs are generally prioritized earlier because of restroom needs, but every pet receives the same level of care, attention, and communication. 🐾 Premium boarding Boarding is a high-touch, in-home service for clients who want a fully hands-off experience while their dog is away. At this time, boarding is available only to dogs who already have an established walking, drop-in, or daycare relationship with me. This helps ensure your dog is already comfortable with me, my home, my routine, and my resident pets before an overnight stay. While boarding with me, your dog will: * Live inside my home as part of the household * Be my only boarding guest and receive individualized attention * Receive daily enrichment, engagement, and structured downtime * Enjoy supervised access to my private Sniffspot for play, sniffing, and decompression * Follow a routine tailored to their age, energy level, temperament, and physical needs Enrichment may include: * Frozen meals or food puzzles using West Paw Toppls * Sniff-based games, treat hunts, and low-pressure training activities * Nature walks or hikes at San Felasco when weather permits * Visits to quiet recreational fields when no other animals are present * Indoor play and low-impact enrichment during extreme heat or storms Most dogs return home happy, fulfilled, and very ready for a nap. 🚨 Boarding behavior and safety expectations The safety and comfort of my resident pets are a top priority. Dogs boarding with me must be safe around cats and respectful toward my personal dog. Dogs showing aggression, predatory behavior, severe resource guarding, or repeated unsafe behavior toward resident animals may not be eligible for boarding. If a boarding stay must be ended for safety reasons, care may be converted to drop-in visits at your home for feeding, potty breaks, and companionship whenever possible. 🚗 Premium pick-up and drop-off For added convenience, I offer pet transportation as an optional add-on. I can personally pick up or return your dog along my existing daily route, allowing you to leave your dog comfortably at home without coordinating an in-person handoff. This service is priced accordingly to reflect the additional time, travel, and personalized care involved. ⛔ Important booking policies * One complimentary meet and greet is included for new clients * Additional meetings should be booked as a walk or drop-in to cover time and travel * Every pet receiving care must be listed on the Rover booking * Bookings should be confirmed within 48 hours of the meet and greet or the requested time may be released * House-sitting and drop-in bookings follow a seven-day cancellation policy * Availability is not guaranteed until a booking has been formally confirmed by you. through Rover. If you have questions, a complicated schedule, or a pet with unusual care needs, I am always happy to talk through the details before booking. Care philosophy and communication: In my home, pets and plants are family, and every animal in my care is treated with the same level of respect, attention, and consideration I give my own. I understand that every pet has an individual personality and different needs. Some thrive on companionship, while others prefer play, structure, quiet encouragement, or simply having a calm person nearby. My goal is to be a steady, reassuring presence your pet can rely on while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in their own home or taking them on an enrichment field trip to The Zoomie Zone, I focus on creating a safe, engaging, and low-stress experience that supports both their physical and emotional well-being. During each visit, you’ll receive a detailed Rover Card with notes about meals, potty breaks, mood, activities, and anything noteworthy from our time together. If your pet gives me an especially great photo opportunity, I may also send along a favorite edited image. Unless something genuinely requires your attention, I will not interrupt your vacation, work trip, or conference. My goal is to be both your pet’s advocate and your peace of mind while you’re away. 🚨 Safety and stress policy Safety is always my top priority, both for your pet and for me. If a pet displays aggression, extreme fear, severe anxiety, or behavior that makes a visit unsafe, I will still make every reasonable effort to ensure their essential needs are met, including food, water, medication when safely possible, and potty access. However, I may modify or shorten the visit if continuing would increase stress or create a risk of injury. This is never done as punishment. It is a safety decision intended to prevent escalation and protect everyone involved. Any significant concerns will be clearly documented and communicated to you. 🛏️ Crate or confinement requirement for boarding For boarding stays, dogs must be comfortable resting safely in a crate, exercise pen, gated room, or behind another secure household barrier. This is a firm boarding requirement. At night, during meals when separation is needed, and anytime dogs cannot be directly supervised, boarding guests will be safely confined. This gives every animal appropriate space to rest and ensures all pets remain secure while I am sleeping, showering, completing household tasks, or briefly away from home. Crates and gated spaces are always used as calm, neutral resting areas, never as punishment. If your dog normally uses a crate, pen, gated room, or another confinement routine at home, please share the details with me so I can keep their stay as familiar and low-stress as possible. Dogs do not need to love being crated, but they must be able to tolerate safe confinement without panicking, attempting to escape, or injuring themselves. If your dog is not currently comfortable with any form of secure separation, boarding may not be the right fit at this time. In that case, drop-in care in their own home may be a safer and more comfortable alternative. This is non-negotiable.
“Miranda was great! She took care of my dog and three cats like they were her own. They came back clean and no worse for wear. She worked with my schedule and was very flexible. I appreciated all help and understanding!!”
About: I’ve been a dog-mom for the past 14 years. Recently, our dog crossed over the rainbow bridge and we want to love on some dogs the way our dog was loved. We have cared for puppies and senior dogs alike for many years. We are active and enjoy exercising and playing outside with dogs or just relaxing at home, depending on your pet’s needs. Both online teachers, we are organized and routine-oriented, and offer flexibility with scheduling. We currently do not have children or other animals in our home. We will take care of your dog as if it were our own. We are experienced in administering medicine and supplements as-needed. We will only watch one family’s dog(s) at a time to ensure your baby(ies) gets the attention he or she deserves. We have relied on Rover for many years in the past with our own dog so we understand the desire to feel comfortable with whom you leave your animal while you’re away. We hope you’ll choose us for your dog-sitting needs! Working from home, we have flexible schedules for pick-up and drop-off. We are able to spend lots of quality time with your pup! We have a neighborhood for walking dogs and live just a few miles from a dog park. We will ensure your dog gets the exercise or relaxation he or she needs.
“This is Alexander and Josephine’s second time watching Merlin and I am so appreciative of them. They allowed me to drop him off relatively early in the morning, sent plenty of photos and videos throughout the day, and made sure he was fed before I picked him up. Merlin absolutely loves staying with them, as evident by his whining and excitement when we arrived outside their home. Whenever they’re available, they are my #1 choice for watching Merlin.”
“Brynn and husband took great care of my two dogs! They came home happy and tired after a day of playing in the backyard, lounging in the sun (a Milo favorite pastime) and walks. I do appreciate the loving care for my two dogs!!”
“I could tell Bella was comfortable with Paola. I know It’s not easy trusting someone with our furry baby. I recommend Paola to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I have had dogs most of my life that I helped take care. I ended up getting my own dog when I moved. I have my own place and love to have dogs stay while their parents are away. I work at Shands in the emergency room but have enough space for a safe pen when I’m away. I have a small dog park in my complex that I take my dogs to in the evening. I have 2 dogs that are friendly and enjoy making new friends. I also keep dogs separate when I am not home. We like to go to the dog park in the evenings when it’s not so hot
“Danielle was really nice and Shadow loved her. She had other dogs besides her own, but made sure that everyone was happy and did not get stressed out. Shadow loved the back yard, chasing butterflies, and playing with the Australian Shepherd. She got brushing at the end of the days she was there to get the sand off. She was tired out, which was great. She is still a puppy at 15 months. Thank you.”
“Noshin is a great! She accepted my last minute request and was wonderful the entire time. She was flexible, communicative and great with our puppy. Will definitely rebook with Noshin. 🙂”
“Dana is a lovely human being who “gets” dogs and has made her home into a place of comfort and flexibility in response to a dog’s needs. We looked a long time for a caretaker and place that our little Velcro pandemic pup responded to positively and are so happy to have found Dana.”

About: I have never lived a moment of my life without a pet by my side. Currently I just have my sweet cat Deku, but throughout my entire childhood and adulthood I have always taken care of my family and friends dogs and cats. I also have rabbit care experience as well. I have a lot of experience with administering medication for both cats and dogs, and I have worked with cats with neurological disorders as well. I am a full time artist and I run my independent business from home, so I have a very flexible schedule. (I can also offer hand painted pet portraits!) I am very easily able to check in on pets for walks or play time as needed throughout the week! I am able to come into your home to do any kind of check ins for play time and to take dogs on walks. I can also offer overnight sitting if your pets may be anxious and need that level of attention!
“Abby is really sweet with my dog, he's scared of everything but he felt comfortable with her very quickly. I appreciate that she takes the time to make sure he's relaxed and comfy after their walks.”
“Hannah is amazing with my very grumpy and feisty dog! She’s not deterred by his attitude and handles him so well for walks a couple of times a day! I feel so comfortable knowing Hannah is so capable and loving toward him despite his attitude problem!”
“Lori B. has been a great walker for my dog. He is very comfortable with her and I know she is fully responsible and a great caretaker of my little guy. Thank you Lori!”
About: I have had a dog since I was a kid and taken care of friends' dogs too. I love animals and will make your dog my own. I am not doing this to make money (that is why my prices are lower than most) but to teach my daughter responsibility. She loves dogs and all the money is going to her as she is my little assistant. I currently work full-time, but will take your dog on long walks (if desired) and give your little boy/girl lots of love and attention. If needed, I can come home during the day to let your dog out. I have a fenced in yard and a walking trail by my house. Also, lots of room and a kid to take care of and love your pup.
About: I've taken care of family and friends pets of all kinds and sizes. No animal is too tricky for me, I love a pet that is just as unique as their mom or dad! I'm currently available Monday-Friday with occasional weekends. I am in between jobs so my schedule can fit your needs! I even don't mind hanging out with your fur baby more than once a day if needed. I have a fully fenced in acre of land and a brand new car that is reliable for any pick up needs. I also have multiple pet beds and toys at my house if any time there is requested. We lost our fur baby in January so my house may still have her scent in spots. I've lived in Gainesville for 6 years, but have known the roads of Gainesville for 12, so I am very comfortable with the town and know the best walking spots!
“Another great week with Miss Courtney! I’ve even been told Lucy is getting little bursts of running and that’s so good for her. Courtney has listened to all my tips and tricks to use for when Lucy is having a senior or stubborn moment-she is so good with her. This week, Lucy has started barking when it’s almost courtney time. Courtney is a very good communicator, very responsible and we are just grateful we found her.”
“Danica was great for walking our dog Sadie! She was punctual, kind and provided thorough report on the walk. She went above and beyond in care for our dog, would definitely continue using her and recommend her!”
“Hailee was amazing! This was our first rover experience. Our dogs are quirky but she was incredible with them and they love her. Very responsive and responsible. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: My genuine love for animals, attention to detail, and commitment to ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and truly happy during every walk and visit Pet care fits into my routine perfectly after work, starting at least at 6:00 p.m. It is my way of unwinding while spending quality time with animals. I always provide pet care at the client’s home, ensuring pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, maintaining routines, and feeding schedules, and giving plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise to keep pets happy and stress-free.

“Miranda took wonderful care of our border collie, Oliver, during his overnight stay last week. She is caring, attentive and communicative, sending multiple updates and pictures. We are so excited she agreed to have Ollie for an extended stay while we are on vacation in June. It is incredibly reassuring to know he will be so well cared for while we are away!”
“Anas and Tate were amazing with our doodle puppy, Toni, during our trip to Gainesville for UF graduation. After a last-minute cancellation from our original sitter, we were stressed—but meeting Anas put us completely at ease. He was kind, professional, and kept us updated with photos and videos. Toni clearly had a great time! We’re so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter.”
“Ashley H. was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was communicative, professional, and incredibly caring. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes pride in providing exceptional care. Throughout the stay, Ashley kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My Rocky B. was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail, reliability, and warm personality. I would highly recommend Ashley H. to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter on Rover. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Michelle is a wonderful sitter. She accommodated my last-minute request for a meet-and-greet, even without Molly. This was Molly’s first time being boarded with her, and she took excellent care of her. Molly came home safe, happy, and well cared for. Michelle made us feel very comfortable about leaving Molly in her care. She followed Molly’s schedule perfectly and treated our fur baby with so much love. Truly the best sitter in Gainesville—especially if you’re visiting your human babies at the university! :) Highly recommend her, and we’re so glad to have found her.”
“High quality sitters, I’m a repeat customer and I am always impressed with their work! Great communication and obvious effort and care to my puppy’s needs.”
“Einstein was quickly comfortable with Nina and she did a great job accommodating all of his quirks. It's clear he'd be happy going again, and that's all I need to know!”
“Felix could not have been cared for any better. From day one I could tell that my pup had found a home away from home. They fussed over him and showered him with love, took him out on multiple walks a day and played with him. I know Felix is going to miss them.”
“Sage is great! She kept me updated and asked questions to make sure Kane was being taken care of in the best way. Kane enjoyed his time with her and her fur babies! Thank you Sage!”
“Josephine and family took really good care of Shiloh my pup. Shiloh seemed to be living life and having loads of fun, he got his nails trimmed and a bath, 8 day's may have been a little long for him since he never experienced me being gone so long but, he played with other pups, overall im extremely impressed by the Love ❤️ this family gave Shiloh and he is now home lying on couch sleeping, tomorrow he'll be back to his home life, I'll definitely be checking for Josephine's availability from time to time.”
“Danielle took such wonderful care of my puppy! I really appreciate how flexible and thorough she was when I booked Bella to board with her. I also really loved receiving daily pictures and updates where Bella looked like she was having such a great time.”
“Amanda takes such great care of my girls! She made them (& me!) feel comfortable upon arrival by showing us the room and beds they’d be staying in. My dogs can be very high energy and she was patient and helped them feel right at home!”
“Jonathan always takes great care of Olive! Olive truly enjoys going to his house and hiding in all of the blankets. This is my second time leaving Olive in his care, she was happy to be going back and I could tell she remembered spending time there, that put me at ease while I was out of town. Will definitely book again in the future”
“Lucky had an absolutely blast with Terra and her doggy crew when he was with them for a whole week! Lucky loved running around with other dogs and he was able to do just that in Terra’s HUGEEEE yard! Terra sent daily photo/video updates and they made us smile everyday on our trip 🥰 Thank you so much for taking care of our baby the same way we do, we can’t wait for his new sibling to arrive and they can both play in Terra’s yard again!”
“It was really great having Vanessa taking care of my dog. She was really great informing us of how our dog was doing through the day and she was really sweet with our dog. We are truly grateful for a peaceful trip knowing our dog was being taken care of.”
“Alistair was caring and attentive towards our mini American Shepherd. We were kept updated on how our pup was doing throughout his stay, from adjusting during the first hours to all the fun he was having around Alistair's beautiful and peaceful property. We will definitely be back!”
“Wilhelmina was absolutely wonderful with Cleo - thank you for taking such good care of her and giving me updates throughout the trip! Would definitely book with you again in the future 😊”
“Joseph took great care of our dog, Poppy. His entire family showed Poppy love & kindness the entire time we were away. I would highly recommend this sitter as your next go to!”
