“Absolutely amazing and I highly recommend! Valeria and her family are absolutely incredible. I am that protective dog mom that always wants to make sure that my baby is taken care of and I could’ve not asked for a better family than hers to watch my Macimus for the weekend. She was in constant communication with me always updating me with photos and even made me a Mother’s Day card from Mac when I picked him up. She truly goes above and beyond and I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a lovely and responsible family to take care of your fur baby when you are out of town.”

“Jessica was fantastic. She kept me updated with texts, vids, and photos, and Snickers had a great time with her son. I definitely recommend Jessica for your dog sitting needs.”

“Jerrie and Freeman were fantastic! From the minute I dropped her off until the minute I picked her up, I felt like my Lucy was safe and well taken care of. I got so many great pictures, videos, and updates of how the stay was going all weekend long. I was thrilled with the care they gave Lucy and I will definitely be using them again!”

“Dawson has had an amazing time with Payal over the past several days — I’ve been getting the sweetest updates throughout the day, from adorable videos to cute photos that truly show how well she’s caring for him. On top of that, Payal has been incredibly accommodating with my demanding work schedule, always flexible and easy to work with. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend her!”

“Juan Pablo took excellent care of our two dogs. He sent us regular pics and videos. He provided a positive social environment with his dog and other neighbour’s dogs. It was like one big Chi family. We had a great time on our vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of. The peace of mind is priceless!”

“My favorite sitter (and my dog’s favorite). I’ve used again and again and will continue to book anytime my little Luna can’t join us for a trip!”

“Wow, what a great experience with Valeria taking care of my little baby! This was my first time using a sitter and I was really missing my pup. She kept me regularly updated with pictures and how he was doing. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely be using her services again and feel very comfortable recommending her to anyone.”


“Taylor was amazing with my dog Ozzy! She kept me updated, made me feel completely comfortable while I was away, and treated him like her own. Ozzy was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely trust Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”

“Marcos was awesome. He provided daily photos, videos, and care to Max as if I was still with Max at home. Max is very high energy and Marcos loved on Max with protective love and care. Thank you so much Marcos, Max truly enjoyed himself and even socialized with other dogs while I was away. Thank you for caring for my big baby Max.”

“Banksy had wonderful time with Gregory. He sent plenty of pictures and updates. He was also so understanding of Banksy's medical needs. We look forward to using him again.”

“Book with them, you won't regret it! They truly are chosen for this occupation. I have an older dog that needs a little extra care. They went above and beyond with soothing his separation anxiety. Communication was excellent, I received daily pictures of him which truly did help me. My pup did exhibit some new behaviors but they handled everything professionally. Will book again!”


“Fantastic experience and great communication before, during and even after our dog’s stay. We got a clean, healthy and happy dog back after 10 days. Clean house with fenced backyard, we will certainly be return customers!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.
“This is my first time using Nicole and she was fantastic. Very communicative and put me at ease leaving Chloe with her. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout her stay there and it looked like she was well cared for and had a great time playing with the other dogs there. Would definitely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again.”

“Finding someone you trust to watch your dog is a big deal! Adrian was wonderful with Mica and sent many pictures where he looked very happy. The doggy playmates were wonderful for him. Adrian has an obvious love and compassion and it shows in Mica when he came home. We will be using her again.”

“Jackie was amazing with my dog! He absolutely loved her. She was also great at communicating with me throught his entire stay which is an added bonus. Her services were excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Alexa and her dog Kara were amazing with my pup Anakin! She took incredible care of him while I was away! She was thoughtful, attentive, and so loving. Anakin and Kara became fast friends, and I got daily updates that made me feel totally at ease. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Alexa again. Highly recommend!”

“Danielle & Deborah were wonderful!!! Tyson is a bigger dog & takes a little more patience, but they made him feel right at home. They gave me great updates throughout the day. They sent me multiple pictures & a video clip. They returned him to me fresh & clean & feeling good. They also sent him home with some goodies, which was very thoughtful & sweet. I will definitely be returning him soon.”

“Estefania has taken care of our cats twice now and we are so thankful to her for her loving care and attention. She is always responsive and gives us great peace of mind while we are away. Thank you so much”


“Billi provided an exceptional experience caring for my two cats, Mimi and Pin-get, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Mimi is my 9-year-old tuxedo cat and is normally very shy around new people, so I was amazed when she immediately felt comfortable with Billi during the meet and greet. That moment alone reassured me that Billi truly has a natural connection with animals. During each drop-in visit, Billi kept me consistently updated with photos and videos, which meant so much to me. Seeing Mimi happily sitting on her lap and watching both of my fur babies interacting comfortably with her made my heart smile and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Billi is professional, reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She clearly takes the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Her communication and thoughtful updates made the entire experience stress-free. If you are looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pets as if they were her own, I highly recommend Billi. I will absolutely be booking her again for future visits with Mimi and Pin-get.”

“Krystal was so kind and professional about everything. Came and met my cat prior to the appointments. Familiarized herself with his environment and came and did what was needed. I would recommend her to anyone”


“I always call Marianne every time i have a trip, i know she will take good care of my 18y/o kitty. She will also take care of my home with small details! She is amazing”


“Mara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.”


“Yasmine did a great job, was very proactive with communication and sent me updates of my cats while I was away which gave me great peace of mind. Definitely recommended!”


“Robin is AMAZING and kind! This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous to leave my very active cat (with specific food and grooming needs) with a stranger. Robin made me feel so comfortable and kept me updated daily. Mosby also loved her and we will definitely be using her services again.”


“Dawn is the best! I have used her several times and will continue to do so. She is responsive, professional and dependable. She has a great attitude and sends pics of the pets. I can totally trust her.”


“Gheraldine did a good job with my cat. Feeding daily - changing the water, cleaning the litter box and giving my cat affection. She communicated if she would be late or early. I do recommend her.”


“Most pet parents can agree it can be challenging to find someone you can trust to take care of your pet/fur baby for you. However, Alyssa was very attentive and did an excellent job taking care of my cat while I was away for a week.”


“Genesis took great care of my two cats. She’s sweet and caring and always made sure my cats were happy and healthy. She did a great job communicating with me while I was away and also sent me multiple photos of the cats each day. If anybody is looking for a trustworthy sitter, genesis is the one to go with!!”

“I had to find a sitter very last minute due to an unexpected conflict, and Kat truly came through for me when I was in a bind. She responded quickly, was extremely understanding of my situation, and immediately put me at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which really helped calm my anxiety and let me know my pup was happy and well cared for. Kat’s building was a huge bonus—it’s extremely dog-friendly and has the cutest pups lol There was a private dog run right along the water that she was able to take my sweet dolly to,and a gorgeous park just across the street. It was clear from the updates that my dog was getting plenty of outdoor time and stimulation. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better setup. Reliability is everything when trusting someone with your pet, and Kat exceeded expectations. She was warm, professional, and totally dependable. I would absolutely book with her again 💖”

“Camilla and Maribela were amazing take care of our two dogs for the day! They were very sweet and attentive to the two pups, and sent us the cutest photos of the dogs having a great time. We were running late to pick up the dogs due to traffic, and they were so accomodating and understanding. We will go to them again when we need a dog sitter!”


About: Lifelong dog lover and current med student here! Raised alongside a Cockapoo and a Goldendoodle since I was six, I’ve spent nearly my whole life caring for pups.

I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring and capable hands. She went above and beyond — sending regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes after each walk.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.
“Jackie was amazing with my dog! He absolutely loved her. She was also great at communicating with me throught his entire stay which is an added bonus. Her services were excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Alexa and her dog Kara were amazing with my pup Anakin! She took incredible care of him while I was away! She was thoughtful, attentive, and so loving. Anakin and Kara became fast friends, and I got daily updates that made me feel totally at ease. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Alexa again. Highly recommend!”

“Our senior German Shepherd, Warwick, stayed with Natalie for 4 nights. Natalie kept us updated with news and photos from his stay, and we felt comfortable knowing that our boy was in good hands. We will definitely reach out to Natalie again. Having a senior dog is a responsibility and I knew he was well cared for. Thank you.”

“Anita kept me updated with photos throughout my trip and treated my dog as her own. She slept in Anita’s room and got to hang out in the backyard and go on walks. Will book again!”

“Jennifer is amazing! She was available last minute since my other sitter cancelled! My pup Buddah loves her and her pup! She sent pictures which I love and made me feel very confident in leaving my baby with her!! She’s thoughtful, sensible and very caring. I will be using her again!”

“Kristi is the best! This was my 1st time using Rover, so I was super skeptical. My pup, Chance, is super shy with strangers and Kristi was very patient with him and took the time to gain his trust. Now he loves her! When I went to pick him up he didn't want to leave. Kristi also sent pictures during his stay. I would definitely recommend Kristi to individuals seeking someone to take great care of their pup.”

“Definitely a 5 Star sitter. I contacted Taylor on very short notice. She responded within 10 minutes. She was watching my dog with in 1 hour. My dog Cookie really liked staying with Taylor. She was very loving to my dog. Taylor sent me several pictures and videos of my dog during the day. I would highly recommend Taylor to watch your pet. We are definitely going to use Taylor again to watch my dog. 👏”

“Spike has stayed with Kristy a few different times now. He always comes home happy and like he felt right at home. If we can’t take home with us on a trip, I feel at ease knowing he is in good hands with Kristy and her family!”

“Amelia is amazing! Our dog Kane loved her and she had a beautiful garden yard for him to roam. He was the only dog being boarded so she gave him so much love & attention. She sent us pictures of him regularly on our trip and has an obvious heart for animals. Thank you Amelia!”
