“Mango absolutely adored Jessica and her family - the love and care they showed him was purr-fectly evident in his eagerness to return! I'm thoroughly impressed with the top-notch care and warm family atmosphere they provided, and I highly recommend Jessica's services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet caregiver.”


“Maile and her family were AMAZING! They all took such good care of Ridge and treated her like she was already a part of their family. She gave great picture and video updates. Ridge came back relaxed and happy and I am so grateful for that.”

“100% would recommend!! Thank you Yiye, Ta and Irene for taking such wonderful care of Saint! The daily photos and videos were surely comforting to see him enjoying his time at your home. I appreciate your loving and caring attention with Saint and will be definitely requesting your dog sitting services in the future.”


“Tracey and her family are our go to people whenever we travel or just need someone to watch our dog when we have busy nights. They are always very kind, send lots of updates and my fur child gets to socialize with other nice pups. Thank you Tracey!”

“Diana was great with our pups during our vacation. She sent daily updates with pictures. Treated our pups like they were her own while we were away. Could not have asked for a better sitter. Thank you!”

“Such a huge blessing! Very caring, thoughtful and they went above and beyond to make sure our needy senior pet had excellent care. We are so grateful for the help offered.”


“Angela was a life saver, she agreed to take in my dog Tank for a couple of weeks on short notice. We did a meet and greet and Tank was cool and comfortable at her place. She sent pictures and let me know how he was doing. Taking him on walks and just keeping him busy. So, if you need a sitter, give her a call. (Probably best to get in touch with her sooner than later.) lol Thanks again, Angela.”

“Best sitter I could have ever asked for. I received pictures and updates on CJ the entire time. Stacey provided the care and attention my dog needed. Will always look to use her first anytime we may be away. Thank you Stacey!! ❤️?”


“Eliana was a wonderful and dependable sitter. My dogs enjoyed all the extra attention and treats she gave them while we were away from home. She gave us updates during our trip so I could enjoy our vacation without worrying about my two fur babies.”

“I am so grateful for Kyrie. My pup gets so much love while staying at her place from her and her entire family. My pup got plenty of fetch time and ample cuddles. I'm so happy to be able to go out of town and not have to worry about my pup. Thank you for everything you do for my pup!”

“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Laurel was fantastic! She took great care of our pup, sent us pics and videos during our vacation so we could see all the fun Biscuit was having. She looked after our dog just like one of her own, and even made a paw print Christmas ornament. We’ll definitely book with Laurel again for future dog sitting.”

“Kristie was a total pro. Communicative, accommodating, inquisitive, and when we met her in person I could tell she was obviously a dog lover. She sent updates with pictures & videos every day during my pup’s stay with her. Highly recommend!”

“Pei is awesome! Very knowledgeable and outstanding communication. My girl Nezuko was immediately drawn to him and he was able to calm her and get her to follow commands when they first met before booking. I am very apprehensive about leaving my Nezuko with anyone and he really put mine mind at ease. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter who will take care of their fur baby. Thank you so much Pei!”

“Great boarder. Sent photos every few days while we were on our 10 day trip. Pearl unfortunately cut her ear the night before drop off while playing with doggy friends. Scott and his wife took great care of her, cleaned and treated her ear when she would run the scab off. So greatful for them.”

“Joel is the best, and is my first choice to take care of my girl while I'm away. My dog is shy and takes time to warm up. Not only is he patient with her but takes her on multiple walks to help her get comfortable.”

“Emma was amazing! Toast fit right in with her family and was loved, adored, and well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and would absolutely book her again. 100% loves the pups she takes care of!”

“I cant overstate how important my cats are to me and I've been lucky to have friends care for them previously so i was very apprehensive when I had to find another option for my July trip which meant entrusting them to someone who didn't know how protective of them I am. I am so happy to have found Shane and was thrilled with his services. I felt reassured when he immediately suggested a meet and greet and became very comfortable as he asked all the right questions. Shane was very responsive before and during my trip and provided daily pictures. It says good things about Shane that he was able to do that as my cats hide when any stranger comes to the house and it was clear that many (not all lol they are cats after all) of my cats became comfortable enough to hang out when Shane was there. I will definitely book Shane again if the need arises. Thank you Shane.”

“Annika did so good with our kitten Freya. Always sent pictures and communication, I could tell our baby was comfortable with her. Would absolutely have her watch Freya again! Thank you so much ☺️”


“Ronalie was absolutely awesome! Daily updates with pictures and videos. Worked with me on pickup and drop off time. My kitten, Little Brother looked happy and well cared for in the photos and videos, as well as at pickup. Being a kitten, he needed a bit more care and guidance, and Ronalie was on top of it for everything. Absolutely would recommend her for your cat sitting needs.”

“Steven is a pleasure to work with, and went above and beyond in his care for our household. It was obvious every day that our cat was well cared for and enjoying his visits. They had fun! And we enjoyed our vacation with peaceful hearts.”

“Jessica was fantastic with our two feline boys! They were so calm and content when we got home, and she left the house in perfect condition. Highly recommend her!”

“Tracy watched our cat Beans for a week while we were away. She was amazing at providing pictures and updates about our girl the whole week. She made it easy to communicate with her and was easily available if I had any concerns. She followed all of my instructions as to how to take care of her. I was so worried about going away and leaving my Beans, but she took such good care of her and eased my mind. We will book with Tracy again if we go away.”


About: Became a Cat Mom last year to two orange brothers. I have learned so much in a short period of time because I have made it my goal to give my boys the best life. I prioritize a healthy environment, enrichment activities, and all of the love that I can offer. I have learned how to administer various medicines and am in the process of learning how to use an inhaler for both of my boys.

“She was amazing! Even brought in our packages by the back door. Very thorough and considerate. I would definitely use her again and would trust her with my furry family member. We are very pleased with Rover and Gracie.”

“Yasmeen did an excellent job with my cat while I was away. She kept me well informed of how she was doing with pictures, and updates everyday. She even accepted a booking for an extra day, when I realized I had misbooked my dates. I will definitely try to use her for future needs.”


“Arianna went above and beyond while taking care of our cat, Fifi. She was attentive, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We had accidentally left trash in the can before leaving, and that was completely our fault, yet she handled it without hesitation. That level of care and thoughtfulness is hard to find. Arianna genuinely cares about both the pets and the families she works with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.”


“Tamah went above and beyond for our cats. One of our pets was put on emergency antibiotics days before our trip was scheduled. Tamah did an amazing job making sure she was given her medicine daily and sent us lots of updates. I would absolutely have her back! 10/10!”


“I couldn’t recommend Stephanie more! I am a very protective cat mom and I was nervous to leave my kitten alone, but Stephanie was so great and made me feel so comfortable. She provided such thorough updates and pictures I never felt like I needed to wonder how my kitty was doing. She did more than I asked her to and cared for my kitten as if it was her own. If you are looking for someone you can trust to be reliable and to care for your pet, choose Stephanie!”

About: I’ve cared for two amazing dogs in my life for years. I’ve walked them, bathed them, fed them and gave numerous belly rubs :). I would love the opportunity to live on your dog as well. I am currently a graduate student so my schedule is pretty flexible. Changes that need to be made will be updated as needed in a timely manner. The house sitting service would be at your house, and on walks I would always have your dog on a leash and under control at all times.

“Lawrence is absolutely amazing! We’ve trusted him with our pets twice now, and he’ll continue to be our first choice whenever we need a sitter. Our babies adore him, and we always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such caring, capable hands. He keeps us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. We highly recommend Lawrence to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely wonderful pet sitter!”

“McKenzie was able to help us out on very short notice due to our cat needing to be on antibiotics just two days before our trip out of state. She went above and beyond in making sure our cat was given her daily meds and had excellent communication with us the entire week. We are so appreciative of McKenzie!”

About: I’ve had the privilege of caring for both dogs and cats throughout my entire life! This has given me experience with pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My passion for animals extends beyond ownership, as I have also rescued and cared for both puppies and adult dogs, helping them adjust to new environments with patience, consistency, and love. I understand that every pet has unique routines, preferences, and emotional needs. Whether your companion is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience while adjusting to new surroundings, I take the time to build trust and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! Accidents and unexpected messes are simply part of caring for animals and I approach these situations with understanding rather than frustration. I am completely comfortable handling cleanup, administering care, and adapting to each pet’s individual needs with kindness and attention. My goal is to provide a calm, dependable, and enriching environment where your pet receives the same level of love, respect, and care that I give my own! I believe every animal deserves to feel secure, happy, and valued, and I strive to make each stay a positive experience for both pets and their owners. Weekdays: * Morning: Available * Midday: Available (flexible) * Evening: Available Weekends: * Fully available with notice! Overnights / Boarding: * Available depending on schedule (message for details) Response Time: * Usually within a few hours Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities at all times! I maintain a calm, structured environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and any special instructions provided by owners to ensure consistency and reduce stress for your pet. I’m attentive during walks, feedings, and playtime, and I prioritize safe handling in all situations! I keep environments clean and organized, including prompt cleanup of accidents and maintaining sanitary food and water areas. Pets are always supervised during care and I avoid unsafe situations such as off leash exposure or unfamiliar animal interactions unless specifically approved by the owner. Clear communication is important to me! I provide updates and daily pictures so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and doing well 🐾
“Hannah was amazing! We reached out to her with incredibly short notice as our other sitter had to cancel due to an emergency. We were in a pinch and Hannah responded immediately and was willing to jump in and help! She was awesome with our puppy, Cooper and treated him like her own. I would highly recommend her!”

“Truffles loved his time with Arianna and family. Lots of great fun with zoomies in the park, walks, and resting snuggles with the family. Truffles had a great time, with lots of photo/videos of his fun time. Highly recommend.”

“Our mini Aussie Brew loves staying with Lily and her goldens! He has a blast and doesn’t want to leave. He is always well cared for and we get videos of him playing which we love! Recommend for both boarding and doggy daycare!”

“You can tell Niome has a heart for animals. Niome always makes Phoebe feel right at home. Phoebe has the best time playing with the other pups, and comes home exhausted from a full day of play.”


“Thank you tracy and her mom for watching my cats! They send many updates and pictures throughout the day and have a whole room set up with toys and cat houses. The only place i fully trust with my babies!! They always take such good care and i never have to worry when they are over there. Thank you again’ :)”

“Eylul is so kind and attentive to our dog Benny! She communicates quickly and clearly and was very helpful. Most of the time when Benny stays somewhere he gets stressed and nervous, but not with Eylul - he was just happy and looked so comfortable. I will absolutely book with Eylul again!”

“Jessica is the bes!!! So sweet, loving, passionate, sends updates, you can see he passion and love for animals. She is an earth angel and we are so lucky to have found her. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Aloha! This day visit was for the purpose of familiarizing King with Grace and Scott and their dogs Izzy and Bailey since they will be caring for him for 6 days. I was looking forward to King's day visit since his earlier meet and greet had gone well, but there was an extended period when they were not available, and when we resumed, I was hopeful his memory of the meet and greet would kick in. I checked in with them a couple times during the day visit and and all was well. When we picked him up, we were greeted at their back gate and King was excited to see me and seemed relaxed and in a good mood. Scott reported the visit went well, King got along with the dogs, he had some outdoor time, was affectionate with Grace by licking her leg, and loved his belly rubs, His dinner appetite was normal, and he readily engaged with us in activities once home . He slept without any issues. We will have another day visit in 2 days before we leave for 6 days. So far, just great. Thanks Grace and Scott and Izzy and Bailey. See you soon!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I’m currently a dog groomer, and I absolutely love my job! I have 2 dogs, Chowder and Rascal (mini Aussies). Although I am located in Waianae, I am willing to drive all over the island. My dog grooming studio is at my house, so I’m home most of the day. When I have multiple boarders I like to rotate them in the yard throughout the day. I have a kiddie pool as well that most dogs enjoy. I have a fenced yard and sturdy gates to keep everyone safe. I typically like to keep boarders from different families separate. If you’re comfortable with your dog being with others dogs, they will only play supervised to avoid any skirmishes. My Aussies are friendly but I only let them socialize if you’re ok with it.
“I highly recommend Catalina if you need someone to take care of your pet. She is dedicated, compassionate, and understanding towards animals. If you want someone who will treat your pet with love, then Catalina on Rover.com is the right person for you. I recently booked Catalina for doggy day care on Rover.com when I was in town. Even though I arranged it at the last minute, Catalina was a lifesaver for my 12-year-old Miniature American Eskimo, Nimbus, who has slight separation anxiety. Catalina was very friendly and welcoming from the beginning, which helped me and Nimbus feel at ease. Even though I forgot to bring Nimbus's toys, Catalina took care of her well during the seven hours she was with her. Catalina went above and beyond to make sure Nimbus was comfortable. Nimbus was given specific treats that I provided, brushed, and walked. It was clear that Catalina cared for Nimbus and was aware of her anxiety. Catalina was also mindful of Nimbus's behavior. Nimbus is not good with other dogs and has a tendency to chase cats. Catalina kept Nimbus in a safe and comfortable environment and made sure she was away from anything that could distress her. This shows how much Catalina tailors her care to each pet's specific needs. Catalina's ability to adapt to Nimbus's specific needs proves why I highly recommend her services on Rover.com.”

“Truffles enjoyed his stay with Nichole's family. Great active time, with excellent interactions with other doggos. Will definitely rebook and recommend to others.”

About: I have 2 dogs & 6 cats of my own. I am well-versed in daily dog & cat care (including medication, hygiene, diet, etc.), dog & cat-walking, training, rescue & rehabilitation services, & post-surgery care. I work from home and am currently available 24/7 for animal care - if you're looking for boarding and/or daycare services, please make sure your pet is socialized as I have 2 dogs & 6 cats. I have a fenced in front yard & back yard and my pets are socialized so they will have company. I also have crates & cages available in case separation is needed, but I let me animals roam free for the most part.
“Exceptionally pleased with the service that Luz provided. My furbaby appears to have had a lovely time, being walked regularly, engaged with and even posing for lots of photos!! I am very happy.”

“After my last river sister moved away, I was a apprehensive about someone else watching Thumper. Hailey and Benjamin made everything easy from the first meet and great, slowly introducing their dogs one at a time and then letting them all roam around their yard, to the first drop off. Thumper was a bit nervous when he was dropped off, but slowly calmed down and enjoyed himself there. Everything made me calm down as well. I got a check-in update and lots of pictures. I am excited for his next visit and glad I found someone that both Thumper and I are both comfortable with!!!!”


“Recieved lots of updates and great communication! My dog struggles with seperation anxiety and I know she was well cared for because she wasnt stressed out or desperate to see me when I picked her up, which was a major relief.”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in caring and capable hands. Angela provided updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was taking care of errands for the day. It was clear my pup was not only well cared for but genuinely loved and treated like family. After picking Queen up from Angela’s place and heading home, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. The attention to detail, reliability, and genuine compassion exceeded every expectation. It’s not easy to trust someone with a beloved pet, but I would absolutely book with Angela again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals, I highly recommend her. She deserved every one of these five stars! Mahalo Angela and our Queen will be so looking forward to her August vacay with you! God Bless, ~Angie TM 🌺🤗”

“Maribell took incredible care of my senior dog, Zeus, with special needs. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly kind and communicative from start to finish, always keeping me updated and sending photos that gave me an immense peace of mind while I was at work. She really made me feel assured and comforted knowing Zeus was in such good hands. What really stood out was how thoughtful and attentive Maribell was. She would let me know ahead of time if other dogs were going to be around and took extra precautions to keep Zeus safe and comfortable, including using a pen when needed. Her yard is great, and is a perfect calm and safe environment for Zeus to enjoy. It’s clear that Maribell genuinely cares about the dogs she watches and loves and treats them as if they are her own. Thank you Maribell!”


“Makayla was very patient with my Labrador puppy despite a hectic drop off. My puppy was anxiously barking, jumping & whining. Makayla did a great job comforting her, took her on several walks and to the dog park to play fetch. I know my puppy can be a handful, so I’m extremely grateful that doggy day care went so well! I would hire Makayla again.”

“Raki was very nervous when I dropped her off since there were other dogs but she looked happy when I picked her up. She was able to play with the other dogs and make new friends.”

“Kiki didn't cry when I dropped her off with Daisy. She seemed to look like she was having fun when Daisy sent me a couple pics of Kiki's time spent with her.”

“Madelaine was great with my fur babies. She even made my old girl so comfortable that she didn’t fight the leash or harness. I really appreciate and trust her moving forward with loving on my baby dogs. She treated them as her own and even gave special time and attention with them so they were comfortable in her home.”

“Arianna accepted our booking request on an unexpected short notice and we were so grateful for that as we were planning to leave for our trip. She took our 80 lb Labrador Retriever, Dallas, on daily one-hour walks while we were away attending our daughter's college orientation in Oregon. It's obvious how much he enjoys spending time with Arianna. Dallas will definitely miss her! I also appreciated that she stayed in touch throughout our trip and regularly sent photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with Arianna again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Dallas!”


About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and I can’t imagine a home without them. I’ve personally owned and cared for several dogs over the years (including both puppies and rescues) as well as a cat, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In addition to my personal experience, I worked at a family-owned dog grooming salon as a dog bather. There, I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included bathing, brushing, deshedding, dematting, and nail trimming/grinding. That experience helped me become confident handling dogs safely, reading body language, and making sure each pet felt as comfortable as possible. While I’m not a certified groomer or trainer, I’ve had a lot of hands-on experience and truly enjoy working with animals. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or boarding, I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to give them a safe, calm, and loving environment while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their usual routine, providing plenty of love, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and meals. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have five years of professional experience as a dog groomer and a lifetime of hands on care with all types of dogs. My family has always had 10+ pets at a time, so I’m comfortable with every personality, size, and special need. I am currently working as a groomer at Happy Paws 808. I work 4-5 days a week. Typically 8am-4pm. I am open to make changes to fit your needs and schedule. I have an accommodating job. I always make sure your pet’s environment stays safe and clean by tidying up after feedings, walks, and playtime. You can trust me to keep your home secure. I double check doors, gates, and anything your pet could get into before I leave. Your house and your pet are treated with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: I’ve always been a responsible pet owner since I was little and have had numerous unique pets growing up. I love pet sitting, walking, and taking care of them all as if they were my own 🩷 I am currently a substitute teacher and have some extra time and days I don’t have work so I have free time for walks and cuddles. I have always prioritized safety in my different occupations doing security and corrections most of my life. I take pride in people’s trust in me in different ways.

“Jocelyn is wonderful. Our dogs are shy around new people, and can be difficult to manage. But they liked her right away and didn’t give her any trouble. She is also very reliable and punctual.”

“Annika was so sweet and helpful with waking Mila every morning at 63:0 am! I highly recommend Annika and will be reaching out to her for professional services in the future!”

“Angela was a life saver, she agreed to take in my dog Tank for a couple of weeks on short notice. We did a meet and greet and Tank was cool and comfortable at her place. She sent pictures and let me know how he was doing. Taking him on walks and just keeping him busy. So, if you need a sitter, give her a call. (Probably best to get in touch with her sooner than later.) lol Thanks again, Angela.”

“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Pei is awesome! Very knowledgeable and outstanding communication. My girl Nezuko was immediately drawn to him and he was able to calm her and get her to follow commands when they first met before booking. I am very apprehensive about leaving my Nezuko with anyone and he really put mine mind at ease. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter who will take care of their fur baby. Thank you so much Pei!”

“Great boarder. Sent photos every few days while we were on our 10 day trip. Pearl unfortunately cut her ear the night before drop off while playing with doggy friends. Scott and his wife took great care of her, cleaned and treated her ear when she would run the scab off. So greatful for them.”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter and lifelong animal lover offering calm, reliable care for your pets. I’m happy to care for your fur babies either in my home or in their own home, depending on what’s most comfortable for them and works best for your family. I’m home most of the day with my 3-year-old son, who loves animals and has grown up around dogs and cats. We spend a lot of our time outside playing in the yard and enjoying our neighborhood park, so pets get plenty of attention and activity. We also have a friendly 6 year old dog, Luna, and cat, Skye, who are comfortable around other animals. Your pet’s comfort always comes first, and I’m happy to adapt to their needs and routine. To provide more personalized care, I only accept one family’s pets at a time. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, or a quiet place to relax, I aim to make them feel safe and at home while you’re away. I’d love to connect and set up a meet-and-greet! I have a fairly flexible schedule to be available for walks and potential overnight care. My son and I often go to the park with our dog in the morning and evening. We usually go to the beach to play once a week. I have a fenced yard and plenty of room to run around inside. I have crate training experience as well. We can go over your dog’s needs and assess the best approach for while you're away.
“Our 2 cats had a great stay over 5 days at their home. This was a first for our cats and they actually ended up bonding together more than they normally do at home… probably because they were at a new place. Thank you so much for taking care of Milo and Bear. We would recommend.”

“Dianna is the best! She takes the best care of our pup ili. We feel so safe and reassured knowing our pet is in the best hands with Dianna and her family. It’s make taking vacations so easy and care free for us. Dianna is must book for any of dog sitting needs!”

“Tanya and her family cared for our senior and special needs doggies with the utmost care and concern. We were blessed to have got her as our sitter, we did a two night trial run to see if the doggies would adapt to their new boarding environment. From all the photos and conversations with Tanya the outcome was great and most of all very positive, so positive that we will be leaving them with her next month as we plan to go on a 1 week vacation which was long time in coming (3 years). Having Tanya as our sitter has pretty much lessen the anxiety and worry regarding the doggies care. We thank you Tanya and family for all that you do for our doggies and for us too!!!”

“Christine is an absolute gem! She was extremely communicative and caring with our special guy. I appreciate all the updates and her flexibility in accommodating our schedule. She was so patient and attentive to Leo’s special needs. I am so grateful to have found Christine and will definitely be using her gain in the future. Thank you so much!!”

“Daylin did an amazing job taking care of my dog. I received regular updates, including videos and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. From the pictures, I could tell my dog was calm and happy, so I know Daylin took excellent care of him. Communication was also very efficient throughout the entire stay. Thank you so much! I highly recommend Daylin without hesitation.”

“Mindy and her family are absolutely amazing!! Our golden retriever Rocky stayed with them for 2 weeks and truly had a vacation of his own! Mindy kept our minds at ease our whole trip back to the mainland, with picture and video updates daily! Rocky got to play with the kiddos, went to a baseball game, walks and a water/spa day (head massages included)! Will definitely be using Mindy again in the future and highly recommend! Thank you again to Mindy and her family”

“Lily kept me well informed of Remy and his day. He played well with her dogs. I feel very comfortable leaving my pup with her and thankful she was available to watch him.”


“Giselle was amazing! Honestly the best pet sitter I’ve had on Rover. She kept me updated everyday and I felt like my fur child was had the best care taken of her. Will definitely rebook”


“Kaitlyn was great. She took in Bree with just a few days notice and Bree enjoyed herself. Kaitlyn is energetic and took Bree on daily walks (long) and that was important to me. As a pit-mix they need to be walked so they can sniff everything. Kaitlyn followed my lead on using the snacks in the puzzle toys to break up the boredom that Pit's can get if not stimulated. She was a great dog-sitter.”

“Thank goodness for Andrea, who helped with boarding Alika after my heart procedure. I asked for a last minute request and she was able to help with that as well. Alika came back a happy dog, which tells me he had a good stay with Andrea. Appreciate all her help with Alika. When she picked him up he did not hesitate to jump in her car. He really loves his time with her when she comes and walks him as well. I will definitely use Andrea again.”
