Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ardwick
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ardwick
“I cannot say enough about the care that my dog Ollie received. I had a lot of anxiety since it was my first time using Rover but after all the updates with pictures and videos, I can safely say that I am well pleased. Crystal is amazing and she definitely loves taking care of those fur babies.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am very happy to have come across this site and even happier to have come across Ms. Estela. We had an absolute wonderful experience with her. From the beginning she was very friendly, helpful, and communicative. She provided updates and daily pictures of Santy and kept us informed of his well being. As much as we were anxious leaving our dog behind for few days, she made us feel comfortable that he was in good hands. There are no words that could describe my gratitude for Estela’s service. I would definitely be using her service in the near future and 100% recommend her to anyone that needs a loving animal care taker.”
“Payton and her husband were awesome! Our dogs had such an incredible time with them, they almost didn’t want to leave. They provided updates regularly and lots of mental stimulation and walks for our pups. Can’t wait to use them again!”
“Valeria is a very nice, pleasant young lady. She kept us updated on kitty's stay with her. Even though Kitty hid and only came out at night she made sure he was comfortable, had food and water and tried to make him feel safe. I was very pleased with Kitty's stay. I would definitely use her again.”
“Bentley always comes home happy from stay at Jeff’s. He provides us with a daily update and photo which we also appreciate, and is always quick to respond should we need to reach him. It’s so scary to leave your fur baby with someone you’ve only met via the internet but we know every time we leave ours with Jeff, he’ll be in the best hands. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie and Luis did an amazing job dog sitting! Communication was great from start to finish, and they kept me updated with pictures, which really put my mind at ease. They were so welcoming and even created a special space in their home for Coco and Chloe. I’d definitely trust them and rebook again!”
“Thank you to Nicole for taking such good care of Shadow. She was very consistent in her updates and let me know how much fun he was having in the backyard. Shadow definitely appreciate the open space to run around and be a happy puppy! Would highly recommend Nicole’s services!!!”
“Christian truly saved the day for me during a family emergency. She responded quickly, was very flexible, and took such good care of Caia. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Caia was with someone so kind and reliable. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust her again.”
“Lucia kept us up to date with our dog activities by frequently sending us pictures and we really enjoyed them. From the pictures, we could see that our dog was happy. We will definitely bring our dog to her next time we are going out of town again.”
“Sonia is very communicative and sent lots of photos- I was confident that my cat was happy and well taken care of during my trip. I know my cat will love to go back to Sonia’s next time I travel!”
“Kelly & Maurice are my go to home away from home for Luna. They have provided a safe and fun environment each time. They also communicate based on the expressed preferences. At times they have sent photos often as requested, but they tone down when I explicitly do not request it allowing me to truly disconnect while feeling confident Luna is ok and well taken care of. I highly recommend their services and will be using them again.”
“When I arrived at Tasha’s house there was an instant connection between Paris & her. I knew in my heart this was the right decision for Paris. Tasha was EXCELLENT in COMMUNICATING with us by showing pictures and text messages. I’ll encouraged anyone to select Tasha.”
“This was my second time leaving my rescue dog, Tao, with Rouday, and both experiences have been great. He was understanding of Tao's occasional timidity after being bounced between multiple shelters as a puppy. I also appreciate that he makes dog sitting a family affair, which has been great for Tao's socialization. I'd definitely recommend Rouday to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Things with Diego went flawlessly. Our dog was welcomed like family and he came back happy, well fed, better behaved and muscular from all his play. Diego is kind, patient and knowledgeable about what good pet care is. Communication was easy from the meet and greet to daily updates including videos and photos of our smiling pup. He made sure to ask questions about any special care needed, an emergency contact and vet records to be prepared for our dogs week long stay. The home is a great space both inside and out for dogs. Our young dog loves company and Coco was an excellent dog host. Diego and Coco will definitely be our 1st call when we need pet care in the future.”
“Bria was WONDERFUL! She sent constant updates and pictures and videos, and was so sweet to my baby! She took great care of him & whenever I need boarding, she will be my number one choice!”
“Our Lab, Lucy, loves going to Geneen's. She finds the yard and waterfall tremendously fun and has a blast with any other dogs who might be there (never too many at one time, and Geneen gives thought to the dog social dynamics). We receive regular photos and updates and always rest easy while we're traveling.”
“I recently had a last-minute Fourth of July trip, and Tamara graciously accepted my booking request on very short notice. Not only did she care for my oldest dog, but she also welcomed my youngest, who can be a bit of a handful. With patience and kindness, Tamara gave both of my girls exceptional care. She allowed my youngest the freedom to adjust at her own pace and, amazingly, helped her become comfortable around cats for the very first time! I never would have imagined she could calmly interact with one, but Tamara made it happen. Throughout their stay, Tamara maintained excellent communication and sent me plenty of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also has a wonderful family who helped shower my girls with love and attention, making them feel right at home. Tamara is responsible, attentive, compassionate, and truly caring. She goes above and beyond, and she is worth her weight in gold. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets. My girls will absolutely be back when I’m in town! ❤️”

“Chelsea was a pleasure to have as a sitter. I had a mixup with booking and she was so flexible and adjusted her schedule to accommodate me. She is very responsive and followed instructions. My cat loved her. Will book again!”
“Amber is very professional, while maintaining a jovial demeanor. I thoroughly enjoyed our discourse, and her care of my cats. She was very thorough, responsive and kept me updated on their goings on whine I was away. The cats were immediately at ease with her, and loved her, which was very important to me. 10/10!!”
“She was super friendly and very responsive. Communication was quick and easy, and she made the whole experience smooth and comfortable. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Alexander did a great job visiting my puppy while I was away. He was timely, gentle and attentive when handling him. I appreciate the updates and extra help with cleaning up after my pup and I trusted that my dog was in great hands. Thanks!”
“Gina is absolutely the best and I am so fortunate to have her look after my kitties. She goes out of her way to even look after our outdoor kitty. I do not have to worry about anything when Gina is taking care of them. I would recommend Gina to anyone who is looking for a sitter for their pets.”
About: I have cared for many stray cats by providing them with food and shelter until I was able to find them loving homes. I also have a cat of my own, so I understand the patience, care, and attention cats need to feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I currently work in an animal hospital, where I regularly handle and care for cats of all ages and personalities. My hospital also offered boarding services, giving me experience in feeding, monitoring, administering medications when needed, cleaning litter boxes, and ensuring cats are comfortable while their owners are away.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since my family first adopted 2 when I was 7 years old. In the 3 years that I had cats, Angel (the female) had two litters. At one point we had 8 cats living in our home after her first litter was born. It was pretty chaotic at times but I really did enjoy it. Onyx (the male) was an outdoor cat. Very adventurous and curious. I by default made friends with the other neighborhood cats that I knew to be friendly towards Onyx because of his adventurous nature. I’m also knowledgeable on how to thoroughly clean out a litter box.
About: Attention paw parents! While I may not have formal training, what I lack in credentials, I make up for with my experience as a form dog mom (RIP Amor), genuine love, ability to follow instructions, and availability.

I understand the importance of consistency and will work with you to establish the routine that suits your pet's needs. In my home, your pet will have access to a dog park within our complex for socializing and exercise. We also have a convenient ground-floor backyard patio for quick breaks and outdoor relaxation. With my daughter's love for dogs, they'll receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime to keep them happy and tired by the end of each day. Whether your pet stays with us or we visit your home, rest assured they'll receive personalized care tailored to their needs, including exercise, rest, and proper feeding.
About: I am an animal lover and have had various types of animal companions throughout my lifetime. Currently I am the Farm operator for our Urban farm. We raise ducks and chickens but they are always separate from visiting pups. Only within view for their entertainment and relaxation here on the farm. Yes we are located nearby in the city 🥰 I have a quiet understanding with most animals that I come across and enjoy their company. I have sat for many of my friends and family and am the go to person when someone needs to go out and about but cannot take their pet family members. I am currently focusing on dog sitting and have dedicate my time to being available to meet as many fur babies as I can in the next couple months. I have a room dedicated to pet care which has a greenhouse feel with plants but is fully enclosed in the home. It has a doggy door which leads out to our fully fenced back yard and large dog run with a insulated dog house inside. I also have a wireless camera on the areas which allow me to make sure that everyone is ok at all times. Please note that I no longer accept large breed dogs at this time aside from past clients. I am currently focusing my time on pet sitting. I am always also checking in via webcam on the pups wherever I am. Dog personalities are so amazing and fun to see. I have a double fenced yard to keep your pets safe. Lots of open dog crates and bedding for snoozing. A dog door that allows them some freedom and a large dedicated outdoor dog area for doggie playtime. They also always have access to fresh cool water.
“Tandy was amazing! we couldn't have asked for a better first experience with Rover. We had to leave for a week long trip and Tandy made sure we were comfortable with our pets being in the best care! She followed our instructions to the detail and went above and beyond to make our cats comfortable. One of them was scared (he is a scared kitty) and she made sure to take the time to friend him and approach him and learn about him. We are so thankful for her help and will definitely will be rebooking her! Thank you Tandy!”
“Nasheia is incredibly professional, communicative, and so very caring towards our dog Charlie! Charlie has a few special needs in his diet and behavior around other dogs, and Nasheia has handled everything he’s thrown at her. She drops in to our home for feeding and walks while we’re in office a few days during the week, and Charlie absolutely loves her. Nasheia communicates any issues early on, like scheduling or unexpected things happening during visits. She also politely points out when supplies like treats or food are low. She’s forward thinking and that’s a perfect match for us as planners when it comes to our dog. We’d recommend her to anyone!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal attention and care I give each pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, taking time to learn their routines, personalities, and comfort levels. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and stress-free. I also make sure owners feel at ease by sending regular updates and photos, so they never have to wonder how their pet is doing. I work remote and am pretty flexible. I will schedule my work time around pet care and clients bookings. I like to plan ahead to make sure each pet is given the appropriate amount of care. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by providing a clean, pet-friendly environment. I also have a fenced back yard for easy access outdoor play area.
About: Dogs, cats, puppies, seniors — I’ve cared for them all. I’m not just a sitter, I’m the friend your pet didn’t know they needed. I have experience with energetic puppies who need structure, older pets who need extra patience and meds, and yes — I speak fluent cat. Whether your cat is shy, sassy, or secretly runs the house (don’t they all?), I know how to read their vibe and keep them comfortable.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ardwick
“Crystal is so amazing!!! She is patient, thoughtful and caring. My Junior was well taken care and I felt comfortable with leaving him with Crystal. I’ve already booked my next appointment for Junior and I know there will be many more appointments in the future. Crystal is the best!!!”
About: **IMPORTANT ** Summer schedule active now. This means more couch snuggles and max TLC! Hello there! I’ve been a sitter for the past 6 years. I’ve mostly worked with small-médium sized dogs. I know with busy schedules a little more help is a big help! I’m here to support you and your furry loved one during these moments. Heading out of town for the weekend? I can help😊. My home is smoke free and safe for your furry friend. If they are more comfortable at home I can come to you also. **IMPORTANT - If you were a previous client of mine and need to book please text me even if you do not see any availability. ** My pet sitting rover schedule will be part time. I am available usually during the weekday evenings and some weekends for extended stays, or walks as needed. I do not work from home and will only be able to give potty breaks 6-8 hrs. I have an open space grass community area for walking and a smoke free home. I do not have any additional pets in my home. If I’m working from your home I will respect and adhere to your rules for your home.
“Juran was so sweet and amazing to my fur baby . Sent me pictures and kept me updated through the day!! Henny and I were very comfortable with her as was she to us .. Will always be having her watch my baby . I highly recommend her for anyone’s fur baby . Thank you !!!❤️”
“Simply phenomenal! This was the first time we've had to leave Ollie for the whole day so we wanted to be sure he was left in good hands. I've been on the sitter side many times before but this was the first time we've left one of our dogs with someone other than family. We could not be happier or more grateful! Catie was extremely communicative, gave multiple picture and video updates, and Ollie clearly had a blast playing with Catie's dogs! So glad to have found such a loving, attentive sitter we can feel so comfortable leaving our pup with :)”

“Kuma looked like he had the best time with Irma! I definitely appreciate her taking care of him on short notice for a day trip I had planned. She sent updates of Kuma throughout the day. I would definitely recommend and revisit!”
“Our first time leaving our two boys and Jeff was absolutely fantastic! One of our pups Murray is 15 and gets a little anxious, but Jeff calmed him down and made him feel so comfortable in his “home away from home”. Our 3 year old Monty had a ball sitting in Jeff’s lap and running around with the other pups. You can tell how much experience Jeff has with taking care of dogs with his calm, caring manner and we’re so glad to have found him!”
About: I've always had dogs growing up in southern Virginia. I have taken care of my own pets for the past 10 years, I have a dog and a cat (that acts like a dog). My dog is not spayed, so I have experience with dogs in heat. If your dog is not neutered, I have experience monitoring behavior and separating the animals. My parent's dog is not neutered. As a loving parent of a goldendoodle, pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I am able to work remotely on most days so I can be flexible with my dog walking schedule. Most mornings start with fresh water and fresh food and a walk. I usually walk my dog again during lunch and then after the work day is over in the evening. I understand dog/cat behavior and know when to separate the animals. Moreover if you dog is crate trained, I will use that as their safe space whenever they may be anxious. If possible, please leave an item from home with your scent.
“I brought my little senior to Denisha and I could not have been happier with the care she took with him. She has true caring for animals and she cared for my dog as well as she cared for her own dogs. They went on walks and when she noticed he was lagging, she picked up his ten pound self and carried him the rest of the way. She cues into behaviors to figure out dynamics and issues. She was just great. I loved that she took him on walks because no place I have taken him has ever put that effort into him. Please consider Denisha as a caretaker for your dog. I will definitely be going back to her.”
“Julie took good care of my timid pup Sophie. She sent some pics during the day, and Sophie seemed happy and comfortable when I picked her up. Julie is also very easy to communicate with - a plus. I'll be using her again to care for Sophie.”
About: I’ve done rover before and I’ve made long friends with watching their pets I’ve seen them grow and be the best fur balls they are I’m home 24/7 . Your fur babies will have my full attention all week I will be home with them the whole time of their stay. It depends on how the owner would like me to do things but I would walk them , play with them and depending on weather go to a park
“I'm really grateful that I found Jeremy through Rover so my son and I could go visit Timpanogos cave! Her puppy and my puppy got to play and mine was tired after, which was nice too.”
About: I can do anything from walking to giving baths or from filling food and water to providing medicine 🐾 I’m okay with dogs of all ages and sizes from puppies to pitbulls and from the sick to the elderly 🙂 I can work remotely so it fits in quite easily. I live in Greenbelt, MD and my office is in DC (when I do decide to go into work), so really anywhere in the suburbs I’m willing to drive to! Any special instructions will be listened to and I will take great care of your pet(s). Hopefully things work out and you can be a regular-ish client! Please note: i board 3-4 dogs at a time. If you have a larger breed dog and I’m boarding multiple dogs, I might require them to where a bark collar that just buzzes if they get aggressive. Depending on their behavior. It helps with mitigation. I have never had any accidents happen under my watch and would like to keep it that way.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience caring for senior dogs, including my own 13-year-old companion, Angel. She’s a wonderful example of how older pets can still be energetic and joyful with the right care and attention. I understand the unique needs of senior animals, such as gentle exercise, medication management, and extra patience. Additionally, I’m skilled at adapting activities to suit each pet’s age and personality, whether it’s training puppies or providing comfort to older pets. My compassionate approach ensures every pet feels safe, loved, and engaged, no matter their stage of life. I work part time so i’m just down to do this whenever I am free . THE MORE BABIES THE BETTER , I have a semi flexible schedule I have a fenced yard and I can care for your baby almost as well as you can IF YOU LET ME GIMME THE FUR BABIESSSSS
“Gabrielle was very responsive and they were accommodating of my wanting an initial meet/greet introduction. They let me know when they arrived and again when wrapped up the walk; gGreat service. Thank you!”
“Juran was a great dog sitter. She is super communicative and takes time to get to know your pet. She even did a brief meet and greet with my dog beforehand which made him more comfortable with her. I look forward to Juran taking care of my dog again soon!”
“Ilia was great. Needed help with Simba’s nightly walk while my spouse was away on business and I had two kids under two. She was prompt on time and took great care of simba!”
About: I've been pet-sitting dogs and cats from a young age, and have cared for my own dog for almost five years now. I've also spent a year working as a veterinary assistant, and have experience creating safe and comfortable environments for all sorts of pets. I would love the opportunity to take care of your dogs, cats, or other small animals! I'm currently studying in college, so my schedule can vary during the week. Right now, my classes typically land around midday, so the mornings and evenings are when I’m best available to help! On most weekends, my availability is flexible towards whatever is needed. When visiting a home, I do my best to maintain order, cleanliness, and comfort while working with a pet. Structure and routine are important, and I'm dedicated to providing animals with the things they need in a timely fashion that minimizes stress. I make sure that any schedule we have, whether that be a walk, a visit, or playtime, is done at the pet's pace and prioritizes their enjoyment.
About: I have been a vet technician for 4 years. My specialty is general wellness. Taking care of fur babies and giving them excellent care. Pets with different temperament and sizes are no issues for me. I work full time at the Humane Rescue Alliance (HRA). From Tuesday to Friday. I volunteer at City Wildlife in DC all day Monday. I’m Available all weekend at whatever time. I have a 1 bedroom apartment with just 1 cat. A big neighborhood with a lot of open space. I also love long walks & hikes.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets throughout my lifetime, starting at the age of 7. I’ve had fish, turtles, cats, dogs, and bearded dragons. So my passion for animals across the board runs pretty deep. Though currently I’m unable to have a personal pet of my own, that has no effect on my ability to take care and love on the pets you cherish. I have 2 dephews (dog nephews) that I love very much, as if they’re were my dogs and that’s the closest I’m able to get to a personal pet at this time. Nonetheless, my passion for animals has drawn me to the idea of becoming a dog & cat walker/sitter and I think I will find a lot of joy and fulfillment in this. I’m currently unemployed and have a very flexible schedule. Whether your pet needs daily or weekly attention, I’m definitely the girl you need for the job! I will care for your pets in accordance to how I would want my pet to be treated. With respect, and love. I’m very attentive and will be sure to take care of your pet to your specific wants & needs.

I have a lot of free time right now and can walk or check in your 4 legged family member anytime you need. I can check in on your other pets as well if you need to and water your plants if needed. I can care for your pets at home, take them for walk, feed them, provide medications, play and train them if needed it. Happy to work with you and your pets needs. I’ve cared for senior dogs, puppies and all ages in between. Animals in general tend to like me and I am comfortable with with all of them, birds included.
About: Hi, My name is Alison, a nursing student with a special place in her heart for doggies. I have been raising a Shih Tzu named Terry, and a Bichon Frise named Lucky. Terry has been the first to be under my complete care since he was 4 months old. He is now 12 years old. Lucky was an unexpected gift from the universe, and was given to us at 1 year old. He is now 5. Both have received nothing but pure attention and love, and I would not hesitate to give your pet the same. Update: my services have now changed after many years. I currently only offering doggie-walks. Thank you for your understanding. My current schedule is very flexible. If there is any conflict with scheduling please let me know so we can come up with a solution that works for the both of us. Please let me know any specific information I should know about your home and neighborhood to be able to ensure both of our safety while still having fun.
“Breonia was EXCELLENT. My two, very hyper, babies loved her. She was friendly, punctual, and even brought her family and furbaby on the walk so they would have some company. I would definitely hire her again.”

“Payton and her husband were awesome! Our dogs had such an incredible time with them, they almost didn’t want to leave. They provided updates regularly and lots of mental stimulation and walks for our pups. Can’t wait to use them again!”
“Christian truly saved the day for me during a family emergency. She responded quickly, was very flexible, and took such good care of Caia. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Caia was with someone so kind and reliable. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust her again.”
“When I arrived at Tasha’s house there was an instant connection between Paris & her. I knew in my heart this was the right decision for Paris. Tasha was EXCELLENT in COMMUNICATING with us by showing pictures and text messages. I’ll encouraged anyone to select Tasha.”
“This was my second time leaving my rescue dog, Tao, with Rouday, and both experiences have been great. He was understanding of Tao's occasional timidity after being bounced between multiple shelters as a puppy. I also appreciate that he makes dog sitting a family affair, which has been great for Tao's socialization. I'd definitely recommend Rouday to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Bria was WONDERFUL! She sent constant updates and pictures and videos, and was so sweet to my baby! She took great care of him & whenever I need boarding, she will be my number one choice!”
“Our Lab, Lucy, loves going to Geneen's. She finds the yard and waterfall tremendously fun and has a blast with any other dogs who might be there (never too many at one time, and Geneen gives thought to the dog social dynamics). We receive regular photos and updates and always rest easy while we're traveling.”
“Kiki is my go to! Apollo absolutely loves her, I enjoy that she takes her time to get to know him and seems to enjoy him, I always feel safe and confident when Apollo stays with her. Thanks Kiki!!”
“I genuinely cannot recommend McKinley enough! She is the sweetest, kindest, and most thoughtful sitter I could have ever asked for. From the moment I dropped Hamilton off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such amazing hands. She sent me daily photos and checked in throughout the day with updates on everything he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ve honestly never seen Hamilton happier. He looked so comfortable, loved, and genuinely excited to be there, I think he was actually a little sad to leave, lol. It was so obvious that McKinley treated him like he was her own, and that meant the world to me. If you’re looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, keep you updated, and go above and beyond, McKinley is the person to book. I would trust her with Hamilton again in a heartbeat and will absolutely be using her in the future. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for the best possible care for their pet!”
“Malvi and Andrej were incredibly communicative and flexible. My dog had a great time playing in their back yard while I was away and I loved getting all the pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Cal & Kelly looked after our Labrador for 4 nights and we have no doubt he was very well cared for! We had a meet and greet beforehand and they were very welcoming and informative, and it was clear they have a lot of experience with dogs including working-line dogs which was important to us. They gave him plenty of exercise and outdoor time, and snuggles in an evening. They kept us up to date with photos and videos, and let us know how he was settling in. They have a brilliant set up at home for their dogs and the dogs they look after. Our boy was clearly happy at their place and we would love to use their services again. We would highly recommend Cal & Kelly”
“Last minute we need a sitter and Adiyah came through in the clutch. Moses and Mercy both came back home happy. We received daily photos and updates of how they were doing which was reassuring. We will be back!”
“We used Jeramy as a last minute sitter when our original plans fell through, and we were so happy with the experience! Our dog can be a nervous with new people, but she loved Jeramy and had a great time during her stay. She also sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us in the loop. We will definitely be using her again :)”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Edward and Natalia. We had a meet and greet a week prior where they asked a lot of questions and observed Ralphie with their sweet pup, Liz Lemon. I always worry leaving Ralphie with a new Rover. He has been described as “extra” and needs a lot of attention/human presence. Within an hour of dropping him off, I got a note that he is settling in fine with a picture of him cozied up with the family and this eased my mind immensely. They were very responsive when I reached out and had everything ready to go when I picked him up. The biggest testament, however, is Ralphie’s behavior on the drive home. If let’s me know if he didn’t like his stay somewhere, but leaving Natalia and Edward he was calm and well behaved. They deserve this 5-star review and j would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”
“Haydenn was a lifesaver after I had another Rover fall through super last minute. He made pick up and drop off easy and took great care of my dog! We'll definitely be back again.”
“Joe was very accommodating and took excellent care of Benji. He kept me updated and made the entire experience worry free. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Charnetta and her beautiful family was AMAZING. My pups absolutely loved their stay. Charnetta provided videos, photos, updates and so much LOVE! Book her!❤️”
