“Fancy had a great time with Yulia & her kids! He came back happy, happy, and tired!! His coat was also very soft and fluffy, so he definitely got some good brush outs! Yulia and her kids are very sweet and I will definitely trust them to watch fancy for me again!”

“It's always hard to leave your dog behind while on vacation but I instantly felt as ease as soon as I dropped my baby boi off. He had an amazing time and the daily photos and updates were much appreciated. And because he was so well taken care of, I could fully enjoy my trip. I highly recommend.”

“Marissa was amazing with my playful adolescent pup! This was my first time using Rover, and she met with me ahead of time and answered all my questions to help me feel comfortable. She was flexible and a good communicator, and sent lots of photos. My dog came home tired and happy!”

“Thank you Barbara and Jenn for taking great care of Bonnie. We knew she was safe and having fun while we were away and are very thankful to have had that peace of mind!”

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience boarding our dog Mac with Yick-hong and couldn’t recommend him and his fiancee more highly. Our dog can be pretty nervous in new environments, but he warmed up to them almost immediately, which gave us so much peace of mind right from the start. We received daily updates with photos and thoughtful notes, which truly meant the world to us. It was so clear that they treated Mac like their own — with patience, affection, and genuine care. Every update reassured us that he was not just being watched, but truly cared for and loved. Throughout our entire trip, we felt completely comfortable and confident that Mac was in excellent hands. We are so grateful and will absolutely book with them again!”

“Yi was fabulous! She took great care of our ragdoll kitten, Pudding. She is incredibly responsive and sends multiple pictures and videos every day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking again in the future!”

“Betsy and her family were wonderful hosts for our pup. Betsy sent pics and videos, and Ronja seemed to have a fantastic time. Great communication, we felt safe leaving our dog in Betsy's care.”

“As always Sean is the best!!! My boy’s tail doesn’t stop moving when getting close to his house. He had a great time with Sean.. went for walks and hiking .. Sean sent me pics and videos of my dog having a great time . I will recommend Sean as the best care taker your dog can have when you go away Thanks again Sean and my dog already knows he will stay with you again soon”

“My dog had a great time with Jen, Robert, and Marcelline. His daily pictures showed me he was so happy. He loves making doggy friends. They were very flexible and picked up and dropped off my dog and let me extend a day when I got stranded. I'm so glad I was able to board him in a safe and happy home.”

“Guillermo did a fantastic job with my dog, Kiara. She gets nervous around new people, so it’s always tough for me to leave her. I booked an overnight stay with Guillermo to see if they’d be a good fit, and it went perfectly. As soon as I arrived, I felt comfortable. Guillermo showed me around the house so I could see where Kiara would stay, which put me at ease. Kiara quickly warmed up to him and didn’t seem upset when I left. During the day, Guillermo sent thoughtful updates and photos, which really helped me relax. When I came back to pick up Kiara, she was happy to see me. She gave me a few kisses and then settled on the couch like she was at home. I really appreciated Guillermo’s care, communication, and the calm, friendly atmosphere he created. I have already booked with him again.”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Thank you Alex so much for taking care of Moab during July 4th weekend. Alex accommodated short notice boarding and very flexible with pickup/drop off time. Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!”

“Lee and family were amazing with our dog! Great communication and he was very comfortable with them. We already have our next stay scheduled! Highly recommend. Thanks for taking such good care of him!”

“Meichen and Tyler took a great care of my slightly senior dog while we were on our vacation. She sent daily updates and kept me up to date of all the walks and activities. At the start our dog had a few accidents due to her being nervous, but they were super understanding. Another thing is that Meichen is super super responsive! I really appreciate their care for our dog.”


“Kristina was great with my 3 month old puppy. This was the first time I boarded her so I was nervous. But all my fears went away quickly. Her dog was great with my puppy and I received several photos and videos during her stay. Will be using again!”

“Paul was excellent. Our little dog has a lot of separation anxiety and he handled her so well. She came home happy. I highly recommend him and will definitely use him again.”

“Arnav was a great sitter for Snoopy. Snoopy loved staying with Arnav and his family. They even took Snoopy to Starbucks to get him a pup cup. Arnav sent me pictures of Snoopy every day while I was away, and I could tell from the pictures that Snoopy was super happy at Arnav's house. If I decide to leave Snoopy in someone's care again, I won't hesitate to contact Arnav.”


“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”

“Ashley and her family were lovely and warm and we felt immediately comfortable leaving our dog. He got along well with their dog and I could tell he was also very comfortable in their home. My pup is a high energy dog, not for everyone, but I really appreciated how Ashley seemed to like him for who it is and enjoyed the crazy parts of his personality! He came back to us in perfect health and happiness. So lucky to find her and we’ll definitely be bringing our dog back - if we can get on her calendar!”

“Angie did a fantastic job of taking care of my old kitty. She was very responsive and we really appreciate her alerting us to a potential issue for a pet that wasn’t her responsibility!”


“Ari took excellent care of Mochi and went above and beyond what I even asked of him. He was flexible and I felt like Mochi was in great hands. Loved the detailed updates. Absolutely will book again, thanks Ari!”

“Alana was awesome! She was communicative and my cat really liked her. She made holiday travel less stressful because I knew Owen was being taken good care of. Would highly recommend!”


“This was my first time booking Carol. Since the meet and greet my cat was at ease with her. I loved her updates and the pictures she sent daily. I highly recommend her and will be my first choice from now on.”


About: I’ve had cats since I was 8 years old. With the 16 years of experience with cats, I believe that you can tell a lot about a person by their cats personality. Like with every pet parent, I strive for the best with my cat. If you choose me to watch your cat, I will provide the best and safest environment for them. Do they need a room to themselves? You got it. Has explosive diarrhea? I have cleaning supplies. Medical issues? Another way to keep me on my toes. I hope you consider me as a prospective aunt to your kitter cat and can’t wait to fill up my camera role with adorable pictures. I look forward to hearing from you 💕

“She was absolutely wonderful with my babies! She paid close attention to all of my instructions and took great care of Moonlight and Luna. She spent time playing with them, kept everything neat and tidy just the way she found it, and even replaced the paper towels she used. Overall, she was such a thoughtful and reliable sitter.I’ll definitely book her again if she’s available!”


“Sandra did a good job handling our two cats who don’t get along and had to be separated making it an extra clunky to check on both of them. I appreciated that she dropped by to meet the new guy ahead of time. I also always appreciate her consistent rover cards and pictures.”


“Olivia left thoughtful and detailed messages during her visits with my cat, which helped put me at ease when I was away from her for the first time. I had no idea my cat would hiss, and Olivia managed to handle it well. She even got toys out for JoJo when I forgot to put them out.”


“They were great! My cats both went right up to them and were very happy when I got home. They also sent photos and videos that let me know my babies were taken care of.”


“Alison treated our cat very well while we were away. She was able to give him his medicine with no issues and sent us lots of photos of them playing. Our cat can be a bit feisty, so it was great to see her manage him so well.”

“Thank you so much! Sunshine was so much less frazzled than he has been when I returned home; he was clearly pleased with the upgraded accommodations. Thank you!!”


“Kristina made it so much easier and stress-free for me to leave town for a few days. She was thorough, on time, and provided great updates after every visit taking care of Curtis and Rhys. I also appreciate how accommodating Kristina was with her schedule and so open in her communication. Will definitely have her take care of the kitties again in the future.”


“Royce was amazing with my cat. Updates were consistent and detailed and he got regular play, tender care, and everything he needed while I was away. I highly recommend her and would gratefully entrust my precious pet to her care again!”


“Geoffrey was great! He visited our cat Leo for ten days and took great care of him. I appreciated his concerns when he felt something was wrong, and his daily updates and photos. Next time we are away we will definitely be reaching out to Geoffrey again.”
“This is our second time booking with Leanne and she was wonderful! It’s clear that she pays attention to detail, but more importantly, cares about making sure your pets are happy and healthy. She even walked our cat, which is deeply appreciated, to keep our active buddy from going stir crazy :). We came home to a very well-fed and well-brushed furry friend again.”


About: I have taken care of animals all my life, but am especially fond of cats. Recently, my 18 year old cat passed away and so I am able to pet sit at home. I have cared for cats with special needs such as requiring medication, special diets etc, and don't mind a shy kitty.

“Sean responded quickly even though he had just returned from out of town. It was our first visit. He seems to really care about the dogs. I left two family dogs with him. I am glad to find a local place to leave my dog when I am visiting family cats nearby!”

“Yi W. Was very responsive and took great care of Duke. She was also very open to my guidance about Duke’s needs and routine. She sent regular updates and photos. I recommend her and will take Duke back to her.”

“Yulia and her family are caring and considerate. Sheila, their 8 year old corgie was very cute and friendly too! Peppercorn loved staying with her and playing with her elementary school aged children.”

“Vista had so much fun during daycare with Junho and Boki! Junho was very communicative of how Vista was doing, making sure she had everything she needed to enjoy her days, from her food, to play and outside time. It is clear that he truly loves dogs and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a kind heart to care for their pet.”

About: I have a 3 year pup named Bowie and I grew up with dogs my whole life. I will love and spoil your furbaby as if they were my own. NOTE: my profile says I have 2 dogs but I only have 1. I watch my Mom’s dog a lot so I have her under my account as a customer of the services :) I’m currently out of work so I have an open schedule to focus on your pup. Bowie would love a playmate to zoom around with! I have a big complex and a little gated dog run on-site. I also have a big deck I gate off during the warmer months for patrolling. I have a 6 foot lead for extra security if needed. Bowie roams around the deck and takes in the sun or says hello to fellow friends when they walk by on the mini trails.
About: My strength lies in my deep love for dogs and my genuine dedication to their well-being. I provide attentive and affectionate care, ensuring each dog feels loved and comfortable in my presence I am available Monday to Thursday from 5 to 8 PM I am also available Friday, from 5 to 11 PM & I am available anytime Saturday & Sunday. When I drop by to check on the dogs, I make sure they're safe, happy, and fed. I keep the owners posted and aim to keep those tails wagging!
“Our two pups had the best time at David and Betsy’s. We received pictures and they came home happy and tired! I would definitely use David and Betsy again!! Thank you both for the pictures , bath and fun!”


About: Hi! I’m Dylan, and I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family over the years, so I’m comfortable around different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also had pets of my own, including a dog, and I’d love to have a dog of my own again someday. Until then, I’m excited to give your pets plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care! I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s individual routine. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether that means a long walk, some playtime, keeping them company, or simply giving them a quiet place to relax, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule while I’m searching for a job, so I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and spending time with pets. I’m able to work pet care into my weekly routine while giving each pet the attention they deserve. Once I start a new job, I’ll make sure my availability stays up to date and only take bookings I can fully commit to. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific routines or preferences their pet has. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I’m also happy to spend extra time playing, giving cuddles, or simply keeping a pet company if that’s what they enjoy. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and let them set the pace. Most importantly, I treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
“Jingjing and everyone in her family were so nice to Tori and took great care of her. On the second day I could see her already so comfortable in the house. I would strongly recommend this warm home!”

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was in preschool. They’re my favorite furry buddies in the whole world! I have experience caring for my dogs, not only providing them love but attention as well. One of my dogs had diabetes and needed daily insulin shots and to be let outside regularly. My care of him gave me some additional caretaker skills! I have a dog right now and I have to look after her daily. Whether it’s feeding her, giving her kisses, or taking her for a walk, my day consists of providing attention for my pet! I am always vigilant when it comes to my pet. I watch my dog and pay attention to her cues, making sure that all of her needs are met. I also closely watch out for other dogs and their interaction with mine. By having a dog, I’ve been able to read body language really well, which allows me to remove my pet from a potentially dangerous situation.
“My pup had the best time ever in the yard, chilling in the house, and befriending Betsy’s sweet dog. I even got a photo during the day. :-) Looking forward to her next stay!”

“Daisy had a great day with Stef! Stef met with us in advance to meet Daisy and learn about her daily routine and requirements. She made it very easy to drop Daisy off and pick her up and also sent a few pictures during the day. Stef took her out for three walks, one of them was a car ride away from Stef's home which was an adventure for Daisy. It was almost hard to get Daisy into the car as she didn't want to leave. Daisy was so tired that night and into the next day, but was very happy. We are looking forward to having Stef take care of her again!”

About: I have had dogs almost my entire life. I have been pet sitting on dog vacay and rover for the last several years , before my dog Dora passed away two years when she was 14 years of age. I stopped pet sitting , and was grieving for a while. I am now ready to get back to dog sitting , and want to experience joy of pets again, even if on a temporary basis. I have two children , 8 and 4, and they have been exposed to dogs and cats until recently . We want to have a chance to play with doggies again, and love them! At the moment I am unemployed, and home with my 4 year old. A dog would easily fit in our daily routine, as the dog parents require. I live in a condo association, on the third floor. I do not have a yard, but I will be able to walk your doggie.
“Michelle was amazing with my dog. She sent lots of updates, has tons of treats and toys at her place and clearly took very good care of my pup.”

About: I have taken care of friends and families dogs and cats for years! I am very clean and organized and absolutely love animals! I have taken in animals and fostered many cats. I used to live with a puppy and took care of him everyday when my roomate went to work as well! I also have 2 cats of my own🥰 I currently work full time from home! So can leave to take care of your fur babies throughout the day! And free at night! I am willing to work around what works best for you and your fur baby! I will make sure your pets are happy and eating and are doing everything normal! Can also FaceTime you everyday I am pet sitting for you so you can say hi to your fur baby! Whatever makes you the most comfortable!

About: Along with growing up with two dogs and helping to raise a puppy as a teenager, family friends and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats since I was ten. I've worked with all types of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Pit Bull mixes. I'm the one in my family who takes the dogs out on long hikes (or for short walks around the block once they get older), brushes their teeth and fur, gives them baths, and trims their nails. I'm a regular volunteer at cat shelters in cat care, and as a student on the pre-veterinary track, I have shadowed and volunteered at vet clinics to better understand the care that goes into your pets' health. Besides dogs and cats, I also have experience with a myriad of animals, such as hamsters, rabbits, chinchillas, guinea pigs, mice, fish, hermit crabs, geckos, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. I have experience in preparing special diets for pets and other animals with specific health needs, and in senior dog care. Over the summer, I work at my internships in animal care for much of the work day, but that leaves afternoons, evenings, and early mornings for me to check in on your pets and give any care they need (breakfast/dinner, walks, baths, etc.). Over the school year, I will have more hours available to fit in more time with your pets (i.e. walking and bathing/grooming, more playtime, etc.). As a lover of all creatures, I take the safety of both pets and wildlife seriously. As such, I will always supervise pets that are outside in yards and keep them on leashes outside fenced-off areas so they are not a danger to others or themselves. If transporting pets in my car, I will keep them safe and secure in a carrier/crate. As a college student who has shared living spaces with new people before, I understand the importance of respecting others' belongings and boundaries. During drop-in visits, I will be sure to respect your home and any rules you may have for your comfort (i.e. no shoes in the house, specific dishes/silverware for pets only, general cleanliness, etc.).
About: Growing up my sisters and I started a dog walking business and offered our services to all the neighbors. We walked and played with dogs of all breeds and sizes! I’m currently working as a college softball coach and looking to fill up my my schedule! My schedule varies depending on the season, and my days being wide open in the off-season. I treat all pets like my own, making sure they are fed and played with like I know my Wayne would like. They deserve all the pets!

About: Dog care is our full time life! We offer small scale, adventure filled boarding and group adventure hikes, with lots of exercise, enrichment and individual attention. Our 60-minute walk option is a trail/park hike with a small group of compatible dog friends🌲🐾 We love petsitting with lots of individual attention, exercise, enrichment, cuddles, and companionship. We typically care for only 1 or 2 client dogs at a time, so your pup really becomes part of our little family while they’re here. Stephanie is home full time, and Ledan works professionally as a dog hiker, so your dog will spend most of their stay with us, whether we’re cuddling at home, hiking at Cat Rock Park or the Fells, swimming, exploring a new trail, or heading out on a dog friendly adventure. Our specialty is definitely pups who want their own vacation while you’re on yours. 🌳 🐾 Luca and Linnie are our two resident 3yo and 2yo Golden Retrievers, who LOVE having friends over. Luca is our little trail master and social butterfly. He’s even helped previously shy or less-socialized dogs come out of their shells and discover how much fun playing with friends can be. We especially specialize in active dogs, larger breeds, and energetic puppies, but every stay is tailored to the individual dog. Some pups want to hike through the woods and cannonball into every pond they see, and some would much rather snooze in our bed. We enthusiastically support both lifestyles, not mutually exclusive! 🤣 At home, pups have free access to our bed and couch and are treated like family. We also love doing little enrichment and training sessions using things we’ve learned through classes with Luca, and we’re happy to keep up with your dog’s routines, including brushing, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, paw care, medications, or other special accommodations. You’ll also get lots of photos and updates along the way, perhaps receiving photographic evidence that your dog has stolen our bed after a long adventure 😴 We have experience with puppies, seniors, special-needs dogs, and oral and injected medications. Pickup and drop-off can also be arranged within about 30 minutes of Waltham. Tell us about your pup, their personality, and what their dream vacation looks like!! 💛 Stephanie is home full time, while Ledan works part time professionally hiking groups of dogs. Pet care is a huge part of our everyday life! Between the two of us, someone is home with the pups most of the time, and our schedule is very flexible around their needs. When Ledan heads out for dog hikes, our boarding pups can often join the adventure when appropriate for them! We want your dog to feel like our home is their home. Pups are welcome on our couch and bed and have plenty of space to play, cuddle, or find a cozy place to rest. We supervise our dogs closely, provide potty breaks as often as needed, and follow each pup’s normal feeding, medication, sleep, and care routines. Because we keep our boarding group small, we’re able to give each dog lots of individual attention and adjust their stay around their personality and needs.

“Carol is very knowledgeable about dogs and has much experience taking care of them. She seems very comfortable with my large excitable Aurora. They had a good walk around the neighborhood and I plan to ask Carol for help again!”


“Geoffrey was great, he came to do a meet and greet to make sure everyone got along well. We've had it come twice since then and he is very communicative and shares wonderful pictures each visit. Thank you!”

About: I am a 28 year old dog lover who has had dogs my whole life! I have had multiple bichons as a kid and have spent a ton of time with a variety of family friends breeds! I have trained our dogs growing up with my family and spent a lot of time walking and keeping them busy throwing the ball around as my mom was a writer. I joined Rover to help save up for my September 2027 wedding and are hoping to help out some families with their pets while getting some exercise! Thanks so much for considering! I am an accountant who works 8-5. My break (when I would walk or drop in) is from 12-1. I would also do so before & after work. I have lots of experience with pets and am happy to safely care for your pet however you specify! We crate our pets at night, our yard is fenced in, ETC,

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was 12, with my family pets, as well as many others! I have experience with special needs, old age, medication, etc. Message me for more details!

I offer nearly 24/7 supervision, as well as around the clock socialization. I have Mondays off, and only work a half day Tuesdays! Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I am home before 5!
“Royce is amazing! She has been so helpful with our 10 week old puppy. She spends more time than required playing with him and making sure he is ok when she comes over for walks. This week we had a family emergency and she came over at 8pm to walk our puppy on a day she was not scheduled. I cannot say enough great things about our experience with her so far.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have had dogs of my own, along with 10+ years of experience dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors.

I’ll follow any instructions you leave for me, make sure they’re secure when coming and going, and give them lots of attention, playtime, and love.
“Jacob has been an amazing dog walker for our family! He’s always on time, flexible with our schedule, and truly cares for our dog. Since welcoming our newborn, his reliability has been such a big help and we’ve had complete peace of mind knowing Murphy is well cared for. Highly recommend Jacob!”

“Marissa was amazing with my playful adolescent pup! This was my first time using Rover, and she met with me ahead of time and answered all my questions to help me feel comfortable. She was flexible and a good communicator, and sent lots of photos. My dog came home tired and happy!”

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience boarding our dog Mac with Yick-hong and couldn’t recommend him and his fiancee more highly. Our dog can be pretty nervous in new environments, but he warmed up to them almost immediately, which gave us so much peace of mind right from the start. We received daily updates with photos and thoughtful notes, which truly meant the world to us. It was so clear that they treated Mac like their own — with patience, affection, and genuine care. Every update reassured us that he was not just being watched, but truly cared for and loved. Throughout our entire trip, we felt completely comfortable and confident that Mac was in excellent hands. We are so grateful and will absolutely book with them again!”

“As always Sean is the best!!! My boy’s tail doesn’t stop moving when getting close to his house. He had a great time with Sean.. went for walks and hiking .. Sean sent me pics and videos of my dog having a great time . I will recommend Sean as the best care taker your dog can have when you go away Thanks again Sean and my dog already knows he will stay with you again soon”

“My dog had a great time with Jen, Robert, and Marcelline. His daily pictures showed me he was so happy. He loves making doggy friends. They were very flexible and picked up and dropped off my dog and let me extend a day when I got stranded. I'm so glad I was able to board him in a safe and happy home.”

“Guillermo did a fantastic job with my dog, Kiara. She gets nervous around new people, so it’s always tough for me to leave her. I booked an overnight stay with Guillermo to see if they’d be a good fit, and it went perfectly. As soon as I arrived, I felt comfortable. Guillermo showed me around the house so I could see where Kiara would stay, which put me at ease. Kiara quickly warmed up to him and didn’t seem upset when I left. During the day, Guillermo sent thoughtful updates and photos, which really helped me relax. When I came back to pick up Kiara, she was happy to see me. She gave me a few kisses and then settled on the couch like she was at home. I really appreciated Guillermo’s care, communication, and the calm, friendly atmosphere he created. I have already booked with him again.”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Thank you Alex so much for taking care of Moab during July 4th weekend. Alex accommodated short notice boarding and very flexible with pickup/drop off time. Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!”

“Lee and family were amazing with our dog! Great communication and he was very comfortable with them. We already have our next stay scheduled! Highly recommend. Thanks for taking such good care of him!”

“Meichen and Tyler took a great care of my slightly senior dog while we were on our vacation. She sent daily updates and kept me up to date of all the walks and activities. At the start our dog had a few accidents due to her being nervous, but they were super understanding. Another thing is that Meichen is super super responsive! I really appreciate their care for our dog.”


“Paul was excellent. Our little dog has a lot of separation anxiety and he handled her so well. She came home happy. I highly recommend him and will definitely use him again.”


“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”

“Ashley and her family were lovely and warm and we felt immediately comfortable leaving our dog. He got along well with their dog and I could tell he was also very comfortable in their home. My pup is a high energy dog, not for everyone, but I really appreciated how Ashley seemed to like him for who it is and enjoyed the crazy parts of his personality! He came back to us in perfect health and happiness. So lucky to find her and we’ll definitely be bringing our dog back - if we can get on her calendar!”

“Kate instantly made myself and Louie feel welcome and comfortable for his weekend stay! She sent me pictures and updates each day and I could tell Louie was happy and well cared for when I picked him up. I will definitely book her for future stays and highly recommend her!”

“My dog, Lucy, had a wonderful stay with Julie! Julie was very responsive to my initial response and any future questions. More importantly, I got a bunch of photos and updates of how Lucy’s visit was going which was wonderful. I highly recommend Julie. Lucy can’t wait for a future stay!”

“Natalie is phenomenal!!! She took such great care of Teddy. Her communication was outstanding, sending pictures and texts throughout the day. Such a sweet and kind person that you will feel so comfortable leaving your dog with.”

“Alanis and her husband took great care of Leo. He really had a great time with them! Alanis was very communicative and sent me lots of pictures. I highly recommend Alanis for all your pet sitting needs!”

“Our dog, tofu, loved staying at JingJing’s home. She was so communicative and mindful of his house training needs. We also loved the picture updates. At pickup, she even had observations to share which we really appreciated. Tofu will definitely stay there again!”
