“They we're great with Ranger! I received updates and pictures each day about how Ranger was doing and any antics he was up to. Lots of walks were taken and i really appreciated the help and flexibility to work with my schedule. Ranger came home happy and tired from all his excitement!”
“Samantha and her family were amazing with Strider! She worked to figure out the best way to burn his energy and to keep him happy. As a bonus, she lives in an area any dog would love with places to hike and things to smell. I absolutely recommend her!”
“My dog loves it at Nicole’s house! She is happily entertained with toys and bones each time and loves playing with Nicole’s daughter. It’s a great environment with a fenced yard, and Nicole is amazing at sending updates. Always a 10/10 experience!”
“Have used Emily once again and couldn’t be more happy with her updates and photos of Forest while I was traveling. Highly recommend her services if you need any kind of pet sitting.”
“Highly recommend! Michael is very professional and easy to work with. Our labradoodle enjoyed his time at Caesar’s Home and came home calm/happy after playing with his new friends all week. We will definitely stay again!”
“Out of the past 10 dogsitters we’ve used, John is the best. We got 5+ pictures of a day clearly showing our dogs were happy and having fun. John noticed and mentioned a half dozen things that showed us he was attentive to our dog’s needs and sensitive enough to help them when they were in need. Our dogs came back visibly less stressed than with other dogsitters, so we will be using John from now on!”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
“Christian is great! He is patient, chill, and very good with dogs! I loved that our dog wanted to go back inside with him when we had to leave; that is a great sign!”
“Our dog Shelby had a fabulous time staying with Luiz and his family! They have super security to make sure dogs are in a fenced off area which made us feel very safe. They are dog lovers and we felt very secure leaving Shelby with them just for one night. If we needed to board with them again for a longer period of time we wouldn’t think twice. They have a lovely home and are lovely dog-loving people- you will feel very safe leaving your furry family member(s) with them in the comfort of their home!”
“As always, Sandra and her husband John are so attentive, caring and loving towards Lulu, they treat her as their own. She truly cares about her and provides immaculate care. Lulu requires medication as well as frequent meals and Sandra is always on top of her care!”
“Patti’s whole family stepped in to help care for Love. They were so attentive, sent pictures and updates every day we were gone, and treated her like a little princess. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”
“Carl took incredible care of Milo! He came back exhausted. Carl also provided me the most pictures I’ve ever gotten, which I appreciated to see how much fun Milo had on his stay. Would 100% recommend to anyone!”
“Dorjee was wonderful with Meryl. I loved that she answered messages quickly and sent photos of Meryl on walks. Despite the great service and I thought good relationship, I was shocked that Dorjee suddenly told me she was refusing to communicate with me or do business anymore because of my questions. This sudden severence is quite upsetting to me. I so much wish she would have told me she had issues with my questions rather than suddenly ending all communication with no warning.”
“I am so thrilled to have found Judy!! I've had Shilo stay with Judy and her husband a few times now and I couldn't be happier. Shilo loves to run and the large fenced in backyard is perfect. Judy's dog, Rosie is sweet and welcoming. The updates and photos are great and relieves any worry or stress that I may have had!!! When it comes time for pick up, although Shilo appears to be happy to see me she also seems quite content to stay with judy....which is a really good sign!!”
“Brock came home happy and calm. Arrangements were easy to make, and Furrough and Amir were very responsive when I reached out for updates. I appreciated getting photos, especially right after drop-off.”
“Heidi was great with Mayzie. We were pleased Mayzie responded positively at our first meeting and throughout her stay. Heidi kept us updated on Mayzie's eating and well-being while we were away. Smiles and tail wags from everyone!”
“Jie and her family were amazing dog hosts. She sent us daily updates and videos and was an incredible communicator. This was the first time we’ve left our furry children with someone and could not have been happier. We were so relaxed knowing they were in great hands and will recommend her and this service to all the pet owners we know!”
“Kourtney was very communicative and happy to take our dogs for the night with only a couple weeks of notice. Our dogs can be a handful, but she had no problem at all with them. I would recommend Kourtney to anyone looking for a Rover for an overnight stay, even if your dog(s) can be tricky!”

“Always grateful when Aurore is available to check in on our pets. We're never worried - she's punctual, gives us great updates, and leaves us reassured that everything is going welL!”
“Kiersten did such a wonderful job of caring for our four cats while we were away! She arrived on time, well prepared for her stay at our home. I was immediately at ease with her, and could see that our cats were too. She sent photo updates each day, which was a comfort to us as we traveled, and the cats looked great and very relaxed with her. Most surprising for us was that our very energetic and sometimes anxious newest cat, who arrived just a few months ago, really loved being with Kiersten, and he very soon got cozy with her! He was just beginning to relax with us but hadn't yet even begun to sit on my lap when I left. Our eldest cat also clearly loved being with her! He's very unique and emotionally complex, and doesn't always relate so easily with people. We are very grateful for her attentive care to our precious cats, and highly recommend her services. We would be happy to work with her again!”
“We are so grateful to have Mickala care for Freya. Mickala communicated with us and sent pictures at each visit. She also washed and dried Freya's blanket when it was soiled with a hair ball! We arrived home to a happy cat and clean cat dishes.”
“Natalya was great, very communicative and was prompt. She was flexible around the holidays and always played with our cat when she was there. I would recommend her for cats, and we'll be reaching out in the future!”
About: I’ve owned three cats throughout my life, so I understand their behavior, temperaments, and how unique each personality can be. I strongly admire cats for their independence and quirks, and I have a soft spot for orange cats especially. I’m comfortable reading their signals, giving them space when needed, and also making sure they feel loved and cared for.
“Natalie was great! Very attentive and communicative. She played with my high energy boy and snuggled my people-loving girl. She also managed to brush my persian nearly every visit-a total plus!”
About: I’m a very responsible and loving pet owner. Have rescued many pets and now have found myself with some free time and would love to help new pets and people! With notice, I am completely free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays & Sundays. (Monday, Tuesday & Friday I can be available for a few hours in the am) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play and a kiddie pool to cool off in! I have three very friendly doggos myself but plenty of space so they can be kept separate if you desire.
About: I’ve given love and care to multiple dogs and cats ranging from puppies and kittens to seniors. I feel very comfortable administering medications and will give exceptional care to animals with special needs. As an Animal Science major at UMASS, I currently study/work with farm and companion animals. I’m currently working part time, leaving optimal time to care for your pets! I am available for pet sitting or walking Sunday-Wednesday all day and Thursday-Saturday before 3pm and after 8:30pm. I am flexible to your needs! I love all pets and will provide lots of love and affection. I’m willing to give walks and/or do overnights.
“Caitlyn was wonderful with my three dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of them while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely book with Caitlyn again! 🐾💕”
About: Ive taken care of quite a few kitties. Unless your cat like constant snuggles having us come to your house once or twice a day would be best. The kids are always opening our doors.
“This is the second time we have booked Grace to care for our cat, and like the first time she has been a pleasure to work with, always friendly and professional. We came home to find our cat looking healthy and happy. We recommend Grace for anyone looking for a dependable, responsible and friendly presence.”
“Anna was fantastic! Really went above and beyond with our two cats (who can be a little hornery), but they quickly fell in love with her visits and the extra time she spent with them. Would book again!”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 10. Most of my experience has come from helping family, friends, and neighbors with their pets when they need someone they can trust. I’ve taken care of pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one comfortable and happy. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, feed them, give them attention, or just keep them company, and I’m just as comfortable spending time with cats and making sure they get the care and attention they need. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re safe, comfortable, and being well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life other than when I was a student, so you’re getting experience above all else. I can drop in for feeds, play time, take them to vet appointments while you're at work or away, stay the night if they get separation anxiety, whatever they need! Even if they just need company for an hour, don’t hesitate to get in touch!
About: I’ve lived with pets for my whole life, and I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats (and 5 chickens!) at home. I have experience pet sitting for all kinds of animals (including ducks!), and all of the dogs and cats I’ve taken care of hold a special place in my heart. I took care of a cat who needed medicine squirted into her mouth each morning, as well as a dog who needed special medicine with her food. Overall, the biggest thing I bring to the table as a pet sitter is my love of all pets, and my dedication to making sure they receive the best love and care while you’re away. I am a college student, but all of my classes end in the early afternoon, and I have plenty of time in the morning to fit in pet care. I will not say yes to taking care of your pet if I don’t think I can give your pet the amount of time and care they deserve. Every pet I’ve taken care of has had slightly different needs and routines, and I always try to stick to that so not too much changes for them. I had a dog who needed a walk 3 times a day, and was super cuddly during the day, so I spent a lot of time cuddly and playing with her. I’ve also had cats who were very shy and nervous, so I made sure to give them space but also room for love if they wanted it. There’s no one way to care for pets that works universally, but I always make sure to feed/walk/play with them and give them the love and attention they need.
“We’ve had quite a few sitters over the years, and Kendra is the best! So professional and easy to work with. I booked our travel (flights, rental car, everything!) for the wrong week, and she was still able to work with us even though I realized it last minute and had to make changes. So grateful to have found her!!”
“Vikki immediately bonded with my older cat. I could see my cat rubbing up against her and enjoying her treats. She provided loving companionship for a week while I was on vacation. I am truly thankful for the care she provided my cat. 5 stars out of 5!!”

“Samantha and Brian has a large backyard for my dog to roam and they took him on a nice hike in the woods. My dog had so much fun with them and their young kids. I would choose them again for a eventful daycare that my swiss shepherd definitely needs!”
“John was great with our nervous Velcro dog. John is definitely a dog/animal person who can quickly read them and see what level of interaction they’re comfortable with. We plan to book with John for future dog-free trips.”
“I feel so lucky to have found Sofie and Teryn! They took such great care of my two dogs for the whole day. I was thrilled to get pictures right away and throughout the day while I was gone. I hope to use their services many times to come. Javi and Rocky were happy and very well-cared for at the beautiful home. Thank you!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and truly treat them like family. I grew up in a home with four dogs, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I also adopted and lovingly cared for a difficult senior dachshund for years, which gave me valuable experience with patience, senior dog needs, routines, and extra attentiveness. Today I have a large Bernedoodle, so I’m confident handling bigger dogs as well as energetic pups who need exercise and structure. I’m active and love taking dogs on walks, runs, and outdoor time when appropriate, while also making sure they get plenty of affection, snuggles, and supervision. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love dogs. I understand every dog is different, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day for the pets in my care. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship instead of being left alone for long stretches. My flexible routine also makes it easy for me to stick to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’m able to provide attentive, consistent care and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I have a friendly, social dog who enjoys having visitors and does well with other dogs, while always making sure introductions are done thoughtfully and safely. I have a yard for outdoor time, and while it is not fenced, I use a secure runner/tie-out system and close supervision so dogs can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and time outside. I also keep dogs leashed on walks and anytime they are outdoors for added safety. If your dog is crate-trained or more comfortable with their own space, I’m happy to accommodate crating and follow your normal home routine. I always aim to keep pets on their regular schedule for feeding, exercise, rest, and any medications or special instructions. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.
About: I love having dogs around and work hard to make sure every pup is not only well cared for, but has a genuinely fun and enriching stay. My partner and I live on 30 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to explore. We also go on regular walks and hikes, which are a great way to burn off both physical and mental energy. Of course, not every dog wants an adventure. If you have a senior dog or one who prefers to take it easy, we’re just as happy to spend the day relaxing together with plenty of attention and snuggles. We have two friendly pet goats that are accustomed to being around dogs. That said, your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. If there’s any uncertainty about how either the dog or the goats might interact, the goats stay safely in their fenced pen while we have dog visitors. I work remotely from home with a flexible schedule. I usually spend a few hours working in the morning, then I’m outside for much of the day working on projects, and spending time with our canine guests. I’m very adaptable to your dogs needs. We can work together so your dog can have a routine similar to the one they have a home.
“Amanda's home was clean, welcoming and well set up for pet care. Amanda's pricing was fair and honest and she was amazing with communication throughout the day. It was obvious that she loves animals and my dog agrees as she was excited and happy on the days that she was in Amanda's care. I highly recommend her!”
“Our dogs had a blast at Nicole’s place. They got to run around in her nice fenced in yard, played a lot of fetch and got to cool off in the kiddie pool. Nicole and her family are obviously dog lovers and I was so happy we left our girls with them. I would highly recommend Nicole to care for your pups as if they were her own.”
About: I am a caring, loving, responsible person. I am 26 years old and I've been caring for animals since i was a little girl. I love bringing dogs to local dog parks and on hikes. i have years of experience with reptiles, small animals, fish, dogs and cats. i make sure after each and every visit pets will come home and want to snuggle up with their loving owners. I am capable at calming pets when stressed or energetic. I am always clean, well-organized and i always put pets first. When pets are in my care, they are always treated with love and have the best care. I treat them like family because they are family. If you want a professional loving pet sitter contact me now. I am available throughout the week. I am basically up everyday before 9 am so i can have time to do things around my home and have time for your pets. In my home I go on walks all the time, or trails, or even dog parks. I always give the fur babies love and attention. At your place its whatever you need me to do, but I do play with the pups and kitties when they have toys.
“Thank you Forough and Amir! We were nervous at first how Russell would do and how he would get along with other dogs, so we were so relieved to hear that he fit right in! We would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with Forough and Amir again and look forward to scheduling another visit!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Dorjee! She took on our last-minute request and Ziggy came back from his day very content. Very kind, responsive, and provided us with updates during his stay. Will be sure to reach out again!”
About: I love dogs. I have a rescue her name is Snickers and shes 7 months old. I've had dogs all my life. How anyone can hurt man's best friend is beyond me. She is like my child and makes me smile, keeps me company and I dont know what I would do without her. I love her with all my heart and wouldnt trade her for the world. I would treat anyone's dog like I would my own. They are all special in their own way. I would be honored to take care of your dog, I look forward to meeting you very soon. Thank you, Robin K I work full time at home and I'm able to walk my dog and take her out anytime! I'm available all day. My Snickers would love a play mate. I dont have crate but if yours needs one you'll have to bring it. I'm very diligent in taking my pup out all day long.
“Luiz and his family are amazing! Took such good care of my pup Bentley. Treated him like their own. So many cute videos and pictures sent through out the day! Bentley came home exhausted from all the play time. He also loves their dog Molly. Definitley will be booking stays there again. Highly recommend for any pet parent looking for a safe and caring place to leave their babies.”
“The best! So thankful to have such an amazing family to care for Ghost Pepper when I need to go somewhere he can't join. Great communicator, clearly loves dogs. So helpful and kind!!!”
About: Our family dog just moved out with my daughter, so my grandpuppy 😂. Thankfully he comes to stay regularly for extended visits! Most of my photos are of him, truly spoiled & loved. I’ve cared for animals most of my life. I’m available for walking, boarding, or checking in daily while you’re at work to feed or let out. Flexible availability, reliable and kind. I have very flexible availability for boarding, house sitting and checking in and walking. I only work 15-20 hours a week, so I’m home most of the time!

I live in a townhouse that is surrounded by woods and has close proximity to walking trails. You can provide a crate if needed for boarding. I will welcome gentle, people-friendly dogs, who are house & potty trained only. No overly dirty or muddy dogs please! Thanks for your understanding.
“Thank you so much for all of the wonderful pictures and the videos of Miss Tulips day with you. I hope she was a good girl for you but thank you so much for the exceptional care and love you gave her. We will most definitely have you watched her again for us. Thank you ☺️”

“Aurore takes out dog on weekly walks and she is wonderful! She clearly loves animals and our dog is so happy to be getting more exercise. We would highly recommend Aurore for any pet care needs.”
About: Ive been caring for pets for many years. I had a dog walking business over a decade ago. We taken care of our own and others elderly dogs. We like taking dogs on long off leash walks in groups if possible. Dogs are always welcome to cuddle up on the furniture. Im a stay at home-mom, homeschooling. We go to play groups and trips but we can plan our day around dog walks. We take the dogs out first thing in the morning on leash as our yard isnt fenced. We are happy to come feed kitties and water plants. We love taking dogs out on walks and caring for them in our home. We love going on long walks mid day out in nature
“Kiersten was amazing with my anxious dog! She was patient with him and did a great job making him comfortable. She paid super close attention to his preferences and behaviors, which I really appreciated. She was super reliable as well.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. I’m heading to UMass to study Animal Science and hope to join the National Guard to gain EOD bomb-sniffing dog experience. I currently own a high-energy Border Collie/Australian Kelpie mix I rescued, and I’ve also cared for an elderly Shih Tzu who needed lots of special attention and patience. I’m very work-oriented, reliable, and people have told me I’m great with customer service. Neighbors, friends, and family often count on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. As a full-time student, I’ve built a schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care. I also work at a doggy daycare in Avon, CT, so my work schedule usually varies throughout the week. I’m happy to communicate my availability ahead of time and work with each pet parent to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I’m generally more flexible on days I’m not working and can often accommodate evenings and weekends. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. Working at a doggy daycare has given me experience handling dogs with all different personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. I’m attentive to their body language and routines and always make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise, attention, rest, food, and potty breaks. I also understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow each pet’s specific routine and their owner’s instructions.
About: I've grown up with animals my entire life and am very comfortable around them. I enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they get the attention they need! As my mom and sister own their own horses, I have been taking care of my family's dog and two cats while they are away and at shows. I am very careful about the safety of my family's pets, we have a fenced in yard for our dog, and I am very thorough when taking care of our chickens when closing them up for the night to protect them from predators.
“Excellent service and great relationship with Chessie. Kendra did everything I requested in walking Chessie and giving her meals. This was the second time I have engaged her and would definitely engage her again if the need arises.”
About: Hi, I am a retired dog groomer of over 35 years. Now I am a stay at home dog mom. I am pet CPR and first aid certified as well. I am up early and to bed late so I can make sure your pups can stay on their normal schedule and stay as comfortable as possible. I very strongly feel that your pet and home has your rules and find it very important to follow any instructions given to me. That means there are rules that are in place & I stick to them.
“We are so grateful to Lori, who hopped in the car and came a long way to help us out at the very last minute. She took our high energy 3-year-old lab on a fun hiking adventure and took so many cute photos. We will definitely use Lori again!”
“Michael is an amazing dog walker for Theo. He is always available for us, even if it’s only a day or so warning and Theodore absolutely adores him. He sends photo updates to me which makes me so happy to see Theo when I’m gone from work! Thank you Michael!!!”

When caring for someone’s pet, I want both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident leaving them with me. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I’ll also treat your home with respect and keep you updated while you’re away so you know how your pet is doing.

I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! For the month of August I am currently not working! In the fall I will be working full time but can do early mornings, late afternoons and weekends! I will care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel the safest and most relaxed. Staying in their familiar environment helps reduce stress and allows them to stick to their normal routine while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby for companionship, I'll make sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I'll follow your instructions closely to ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and in loving hands until you return home.
About: I’m a very responsible and loving pet owner. Have rescued many pets and now have found myself with some free time and would love to help new pets and people! With notice, I am completely free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays & Sundays. (Monday, Tuesday & Friday I can be available for a few hours in the am) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play and a kiddie pool to cool off in! I have three very friendly doggos myself but plenty of space so they can be kept separate if you desire.
About: I am a caring, loving, responsible person. I am 26 years old and I've been caring for animals since i was a little girl. I love bringing dogs to local dog parks and on hikes. i have years of experience with reptiles, small animals, fish, dogs and cats. i make sure after each and every visit pets will come home and want to snuggle up with their loving owners. I am capable at calming pets when stressed or energetic. I am always clean, well-organized and i always put pets first. When pets are in my care, they are always treated with love and have the best care. I treat them like family because they are family. If you want a professional loving pet sitter contact me now. I am available throughout the week. I am basically up everyday before 9 am so i can have time to do things around my home and have time for your pets. In my home I go on walks all the time, or trails, or even dog parks. I always give the fur babies love and attention. At your place its whatever you need me to do, but I do play with the pups and kitties when they have toys.
About: Greetings! I’ve had the pleasure of Dogsitting for more than a decade. It’s brings me so much joy and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies. Teryn, my partner, and I both grew up in Amherst and are back in the happy valley starting this summer. He works remotely and I work seasonally so we have the time to give our attention and affection to the pups we watch. Dogsitting has become our additional full time job and we love it! Our schedules and home allow us to give 24/7 attention to your furbabies with numerous outdoor breaks, play, and of course snuggles. Though I have fortunately never had to use it, I do have extensive Dogsitting insurance to cover both boarding and housesitting. We value the peace of mind it brings both us and our clients. I have a degree in Biology and worked as a Veterinary Technician, giving me the experience of various breeds and needs. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Boarding dogs has become part of our daily routine so we have a schedule to fit all needs and preferences. Once you book with us, we work our schedule around the booking. I love enjoying walks around the lake we live on, as well as the many trails nearby. We can also play fetch in the backyard if pup can be off leash. Our house is in a very low traffic area full of nature. We are very attentive and we make sure we have details on their routines, feeding, medications and any special needs.

“They we're great with Ranger! I received updates and pictures each day about how Ranger was doing and any antics he was up to. Lots of walks were taken and i really appreciated the help and flexibility to work with my schedule. Ranger came home happy and tired from all his excitement!”
“Samantha and her family were amazing with Strider! She worked to figure out the best way to burn his energy and to keep him happy. As a bonus, she lives in an area any dog would love with places to hike and things to smell. I absolutely recommend her!”
“My dog loves it at Nicole’s house! She is happily entertained with toys and bones each time and loves playing with Nicole’s daughter. It’s a great environment with a fenced yard, and Nicole is amazing at sending updates. Always a 10/10 experience!”
“Have used Emily once again and couldn’t be more happy with her updates and photos of Forest while I was traveling. Highly recommend her services if you need any kind of pet sitting.”
“Highly recommend! Michael is very professional and easy to work with. Our labradoodle enjoyed his time at Caesar’s Home and came home calm/happy after playing with his new friends all week. We will definitely stay again!”
“Out of the past 10 dogsitters we’ve used, John is the best. We got 5+ pictures of a day clearly showing our dogs were happy and having fun. John noticed and mentioned a half dozen things that showed us he was attentive to our dog’s needs and sensitive enough to help them when they were in need. Our dogs came back visibly less stressed than with other dogsitters, so we will be using John from now on!”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
“Christian is great! He is patient, chill, and very good with dogs! I loved that our dog wanted to go back inside with him when we had to leave; that is a great sign!”
“Our dog Shelby had a fabulous time staying with Luiz and his family! They have super security to make sure dogs are in a fenced off area which made us feel very safe. They are dog lovers and we felt very secure leaving Shelby with them just for one night. If we needed to board with them again for a longer period of time we wouldn’t think twice. They have a lovely home and are lovely dog-loving people- you will feel very safe leaving your furry family member(s) with them in the comfort of their home!”
“As always, Sandra and her husband John are so attentive, caring and loving towards Lulu, they treat her as their own. She truly cares about her and provides immaculate care. Lulu requires medication as well as frequent meals and Sandra is always on top of her care!”
“Patti’s whole family stepped in to help care for Love. They were so attentive, sent pictures and updates every day we were gone, and treated her like a little princess. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”
“Carl took incredible care of Milo! He came back exhausted. Carl also provided me the most pictures I’ve ever gotten, which I appreciated to see how much fun Milo had on his stay. Would 100% recommend to anyone!”
“Dorjee was wonderful with Meryl. I loved that she answered messages quickly and sent photos of Meryl on walks. Despite the great service and I thought good relationship, I was shocked that Dorjee suddenly told me she was refusing to communicate with me or do business anymore because of my questions. This sudden severence is quite upsetting to me. I so much wish she would have told me she had issues with my questions rather than suddenly ending all communication with no warning.”
“I am so thrilled to have found Judy!! I've had Shilo stay with Judy and her husband a few times now and I couldn't be happier. Shilo loves to run and the large fenced in backyard is perfect. Judy's dog, Rosie is sweet and welcoming. The updates and photos are great and relieves any worry or stress that I may have had!!! When it comes time for pick up, although Shilo appears to be happy to see me she also seems quite content to stay with judy....which is a really good sign!!”
“Brock came home happy and calm. Arrangements were easy to make, and Furrough and Amir were very responsive when I reached out for updates. I appreciated getting photos, especially right after drop-off.”
“Heidi was great with Mayzie. We were pleased Mayzie responded positively at our first meeting and throughout her stay. Heidi kept us updated on Mayzie's eating and well-being while we were away. Smiles and tail wags from everyone!”
“Kourtney was very communicative and happy to take our dogs for the night with only a couple weeks of notice. Our dogs can be a handful, but she had no problem at all with them. I would recommend Kourtney to anyone looking for a Rover for an overnight stay, even if your dog(s) can be tricky!”
“I booked Rachel last minute fully expecting for her to not respond or say she was available and she responded within minutes for my last second request. She and her family took excellent care of Hank and sent me several pictures and updates through out. 10/10. Very happy to have found someone trust worthy i can leave my dog with and have no worries without feeling like i am burdening friends or family.”
