“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”

“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”


“Our dog always appears well taken care of. She is happy when we drop her off and pick her up. Sophia is reliable and flexible and always sends us cute pictures of our dog during the trip. Lucy is always clean when we pick her up. We are very happy with Sophia!!”

“both of our dogs seemed well cared for. His property has plenty of space for the dogs to run and he took them for walks in the woods, which I’m sure they enjoyed. I would consider boarding our dogs with him again.”

“Michelle was AMAZING with my little girl! I felt completely at ease being away because she truly put her heart and soul into the visit. Will definitely be bringing my girl back for another stay as she had SO much fun and received SO much love!”

“Asher and Olivia had a wonderful time with Jason! We really appreciated Jason's frequency of communication. This was our first time boarding our puppies and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!”


“Caden was great, buddy, my 9 year old border collie love him and I got updates regularly, he took great care on him and I will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend”


“Thank you again so much Evvery for taking such amazing care of our fussy boy, Kingsley! Every time we go out of town - Evvery brings us such peace of mind because she is absolutely fantastic with Kingsley and knows exactly what he needs and wants at all times. I also know that Kingsley loves her cozy home!! He always comes back peaceful, happy, and refreshed from his "doggie-vacay"! Can't wait to book another wonderful stay with you! :)”
“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”

“Christina was wonderful! We had never used dogvacay before and she was helpful with the process, she was patient and calm with all of my questions. Our dog is a high energy pup and so we were looking for a place where she could play with other dogs, but still get a good pet when she wanted one and Christina was perfect. I felt comfortable leaving our pup in Christina's care. Pick-up and drop-off where seamless. We will definitely be taking our girl back! Thank you!”
“Renee was amazing watching our dog for the weekend! You can tell how much she loves dogs and how connected to them she is. She was communicative leading up to the stay and gave a lot of updates and pictures throughout the weekend. It was such a peace of mind knowing our dog was in good care and having a great time in Renee’s care. Highly recommend her!”

“I was a first time boarder and Kathleen and her family helped me and my pup to be at ease in this new space. The photos and updates throughout the stay were amazing. I can definitely see that my dog felt comfortable and welcome. I will definitely return as a customer.”

“FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Highly recommend! We chose Sriju, in part, based on other excellent reviews...and she did not disappoint! From our first communications and introductory meeting before we left our 11mo Goldendoodle with her, Sriju was welcoming, gentle, extremely responsive, organized, completely accommodating, and loving. This was our first time leaving Benny with someone else (we were away six days) so we were already a bit on edge; Sriju put us at ease immediately. Everyday while we were gone Sriju sent texts and pictures (usually once in AM and once in PM). She took Benny on numerous walks throughout the day as well as to the dog park. She adjusted to his needs, not the other way around, and provided an atmosphere that made Benny completely comfortable, as evidenced by his affection toward her when it was time to pick him up upon our return. We highly recommend Sriju and can't thank her enough for making our Benny feel at home while we were away...and giving us the peace of mind we needed to truly enjoy our trip. THANK YOU, Sriju!”

“Gail and Kris are simply the best! They are loving, generous, attentive, considerate, communicative, and just wonderful humans. They go the extra mile to ensure their fur friends have a great time. They have cared for our dog several times now and she clearly loves them very much! Thank you Kris and Gail for being amazing!”

“Jaxon, his dogs, and his family were great. Bonnie has sensitive skin and it needs to be looked after and they did a good job. She seemed happy to be there. He sent pics and videos from time to time and was quick to respond. I would absolutely have her join this family again!”

“Tanya and her whole family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Pippa! She felt right at home from the moment she arrived, and they provided the best care possible. We loved receiving the photo updates Tanya sent—it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Pippa was while we were away. Thank you, Tanya, for creating such a kind and loving environment for our pup. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our trip knowing that Pippa was safe, happy, and so well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”


“Our dog loves Jennifer. Every time we book her to watch our dog, he gets so excited to see her. She constantly sends photos to update us on how our pup is doing. We can always rely on her to take great care of our dog.”
“We did a meet and great with Ivan and my dog felt comfortable with him. He does have a dog and I was excited for my pup to have a playmate during her visit. He was flexible with the drop off and pick up. His home was safe for a dog and he has a fenced in back yard. He sent pictures of my pup in various places in his home, yard and on a walk.”

“Sheila was wonderful! She left detailed notes that reassured me that my pups were doing well and took the time to bring my shy dog out of her shell. I will definitely request her services again next time!”

“Gillian was fantastic! She took great care of our cat and provided so many updates and pictures. Super friendly and communicative. I would definitely recommend Gillian!”

“Shen-Huan was excellent! She gave Squeaky lots of attention, fed him his favorite food, and got him several new toys. He was not lonely during his stay with her! She clearly loves cats and the work she does. I will recommend her to anyone who needs a cat sitter, and will definitely use her again!”


About: I have two stubborn cats and help with their vet care so I am very experienced with cats that take a little bit more effort! I also know what it’s like for a cat to be shy or just need their space. I would love to work with any cat!
“Minara is so great!! She looked after my cats while I visited family for Christmas. Wonderful communicator and very easygoing. Everything went very smoothly and I can tell my cats liked her. :) Everything was left very clean and she did every single little thing i asked!! Highly recommend!”

“Kenneth was very flexible and accommodating for cat sitting Maple and Roux! I really appreciated his kindness and making me feel completely at ease for being out of town for several days. This was a great experience overall.”
“Patrick was really great with our cats! This was our first time having him with them. One car normally does not come out when someone is in the house and she even came in. Thank you !”

“Susan has been absolutely fantastic as a dog walker! She is reliable, punctual, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog immediately felt comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. She always provides updates after walks and goes the extra mile to make sure my dog is happy and well cared for.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Comus
“Ingrid was fantastic with Zazu! Also very responsive and accepted last-minute booking and sent tons of pictures and videos. If I am ever in the area again, I will surely be going to her.”

“Cameron is great! We have left our dog with him for day care on different occasions and for boarding; he seems to have a great time playing, going for walks, etc. each time. I would recommend him.”

“Needed last minute doggy day care for my 2 dogs and Mindy graciously opened up her home to them! During the day I got updates on how much fun they were having! They came back home and crashed the rest of the day!”

“Stella is a highly anxious dog and we were very happy with the way Shruti and her family took care of Stella. They tried their very best to assure she was comfortable and even went outside of their own house rules to make her feel loved and safe. I would recommend them to anyone that is looking for a family environment and their dog is super friendly and happy!”

“We had a great experience with Christina! Drop off and pick up were a breeze. She loves animals just like we do ! She has a great property for dogs to have fun. We will be a returning customer anytime I need a dog sitter. Don't second guess it, Christina is the perfect dog sitter you been looking for !”

“Yuhui took great care of Miso, played with her, and gave Miso a lot of attention. She gave us a detailed report on what Miso did during her time there and took her out on multiple walks. Miso enjoyed spending her time there.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid and cats since I was a young adult. I have seen them through teething, surgery, diabetes, and other grave illnesses. I have taken care of puppies and seniors. Ask me about my monthly package deals. Reach out for boarding information - it is a one-on-one service. I am coasting into retirement so my schedule is open both weekdays and weekends. I would love to fill it with more dogs and cats. Right now I have Astrid, my Westie girl. We walk most morning before 6 AM and start our day early. My wife will take care of her while I am out caring for your pet. Late evening I take Astrid out for a walk and get both of us to bed.
“I am so bless to have Raghavi P. on Rover. She took excellent care of my toy poodle, Nema. Nema has never been to daycare, and Raghavi P. made me and Nema feel at ease from the very start. She communicated well and even sent me pictures each day. I will definitely use Raghavi P. again and highly recommend her services.”

“Gena is amazing! She has cared for our puppy multiple times and he loves going over to her home and also playing with her dog. She communicates often and quickly with updates, she’s understands and respects the boundaries we have for our dog, and she is accommodating and flexible to our schedules. 10/10 recommend!”

“I left my dog, Tori, for daycare, and she was cared for so well. She is usually very timid, but she seemed so relaxed. Thank you for keeping me updated with lots of photos and for the lovely treat gift you gave her. We truly appreciate your thoughtful care and will definitely be back!”

“Juju received great care. She was happy when we picked her up. Cornell is quick to respond to any questions or to provide updates as requested. He gave great details and feedback on her visit when we picked her up.”


“My fur baby has been going to Sophia every week for daycare since August 2023 and sometimes for boarding when we have to travel. Best decision we’ve made for our little Rue. He loves Sophia and her family and enjoys playing with his fur friends. We have even noticed little small behavioral changes in Rue for the better. He comes home happy and tired. So glad we found Sophia as a second home for Rue.”

“We were lucky to find Julie on short notice to take care of Niko for the evening. He being a little older and not used to be being away from us was a little nervous, but Julie did a great job and we would definitely avail her services again if needed.”
About: As pet owner of over 2 years, I enjoy spending time with dogs, My family too loves dogs and like to play with them, I have time to share my skills with other people pets. From Walking, Feeding or just keeping them company. My husband and I work from home, and Ollie, our dog, loves having his furry friends around him. I take him for walks three to four times a day because he enjoys it. My dog, Ollie, is treated like a family member in my home, and I would do the same in yours. I will always follow your requests, as you know what's best for your pet better than I do. Please feel free to give very specific instructions! It's important to know if your pet is house-trained, crate-trained, or has any specific escape behaviors, as this information is crucial for their safety.

“Sheila has been walking my dog Violet since July. She is trustworthy, reliable, flexible and caring. She has lots of expirience with dogs and can handle walking a dog that doesn't have the best manners on a leash! My dog Violet seems to really enjoy her walks with Sheila! She has been able to fit in a walk for Violet every single time I have asked, even if I have contacted last minute due to a scheduling conflict on my end. Sheila is very detail oriented and observant and will notice and alert you if something seems off/different about your dog. I can't say enough good things about Sheila!”

“Christen responded to my request promptly and I was able to set up a last minute walk fairly quickly with her. She arrived on time and kept me informed of everything during the walk. I ALSO really appreciate her making arrangements to come with someone else when she wasn’t feeling too well! Definitely recommend her and will book with her in the future!”

“I have been extremely satisfied with the dog walking services provided by Cornell over the past months. He has consistently demonstrated exceptional reliability, arriving punctually for every scheduled walk and maintaining clear communication throughout our arrangement. His genuine care for my dogs has been evident in the detailed updates and photos he shared after each outing, ensuring they received attentive, safe, and engaging exercise. I highly recommend his professional and trustworthy services to any pet owner seeking a dependable dog walker.”


“Rosie is awesome! She loves and cares for my dog Stormi every single day! She definitely makes me feel calm and worry-free knowing my dog is getting a great walk, extra play, and love!”

About: Hi! I’m Ingrid, a mom of 4 boys ages 3-12 and a dog owner to a boy Beagle named Otis. I’ve had dogs all my life and love being with them and caring for them! (I even trained Otis from a puppy!) We have a large house in the country on 2.5 acres of land. We LOVE having other dogs stay and visit! Otis and the children are very good with other dogs! Other than taking care of the house and kids, taking care of dogs is my only other job, so your pup will get plenty of needed attention and have lots of fun with us!!! We are on a 2.5 acre property, but no fence, so outside time will be on leash only- (we have long leashes for more freedom to roam). Inside is more flexible with free roam in the main area- very large sunroom, living room, and kitchen. We have a large area for dogs to sleep overnight comfortably either on a dog bed or crate, whichever is preferred.
“Monats was super helpful and really came through for our pup during a schedule pinch! She took excellent care of Rosie and was very on top of making sure Rosie’s care requirements were met. And I really appreciated her experience and diligence in catching and thwarting my dogs attempts to eat sticks and mulch even though I had forgotten to warn in advance!”

“We feel so lucky to have found Gabriela to walk our dear George. She is very reliable and punctual. Love the updates and pictures she sends after walks. She genuinely cares, makes sure George has enough water & that George gets his treat after walks. We highly recommend Gabriela and will definitely rebook. Thank you Gabriela , we really appreciate you.”

About: Have had dogs all my life, small/large and medically complex needing meds, love to train, have done cat sitting for medical cats and normal ones I am currently a student in college but only have 2 classes a per week, also am active and am willing to change schedules around :) I am currently not taking pets for boarding as I have my own dog now, but would love to take care of your pets at your home and provide them with enrichment whenever you need/want.
About: I truly treat every pet like my own. I pay close attention to their personality, routines, and comfort level so they feel safe and happy. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and gentle with senior dogs who may need a slower pace or extra care. Clear communication and detailed updates are very important to me, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits very naturally into my current routine. I have a very flexible schedule right now, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests and maintain consistent availability for recurring clients I’m very adaptable and comfortable following your pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication times, walk routines, or favorite play habits, I stick closely to what your pet is used to so everything feels consistent and stress-free. At this time, I do not offer boarding services in my home, as I have a cat who is not comfortable around other animals. However, I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and in-home care to make sure your fur babies receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love.
“Gillian took Wilson out for a walk twice a day for 10 days. She was punctual and responsive. She communicated after each walk with pictures, and she never missed a day. Wilson loved her, and we loved knowing Wilson was in such good hands.”

“Really appreciate Collin's flexibility and how well he was able to work with my pup. Was consistent with communication and understanding of any requests made. Will definitely choose Collin again!”

About: I have had several pets through my life and all have had different personalities. Adapting to them to make them comfortable is important. I also have helped family take care of their new puppies. I’m very comfortable and understanding when dealing with puppies. Currently I can do any time! I don’t mind having an early morning or late night drop in. I am very flexible and want to make this easy for YOU! Just communicate what you need and it’ll be great. I want the animal to be as comfy as possible. Sometimes their human leaving can be stressful! I want to meet them where it’s needed. Not have their routines thrown off.
“We’re so grateful for the amazing care our dogs received! She was incredibly reliable, followed all instructions perfectly, and made sure both dogs got plenty of exercise and love. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”

“We’re so glad we found Alyssa. She was easy-going and stayed in great communication throughout, which meant a lot to us. Aoife and Klay can be a little particular and don’t always warm up to new people quickly, but Alyssa handled them effortlessly and they clearly adored her. It’s a relief to know they were in such good hands. We’d book her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation.”

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I have mainly taken care of my neighbors' pets, my friends' pets and of course my own. I have pet-sitted for dogs of all sizes, cats and fish. At home I have 3 cats, 3 dogs, 3 guinea pigs, 3 ferrets, a crested gecko and a tree frog. I am reliable and punctual. I am caring and kind. I am also flexible and will follow any schedule or instructions. I am a college student at the University of Maryland and during the summer I do have class on Friday morning. Besides my class schedule I am very flexible. I will follow any instructions that you provide as they are unique to each pet. If taking care of a dog I will never take them out without a leash or fenced in yard. If taking care of a cat I will make sure to keep them inside at all times. If you need me to take care of a small animal I will always make sure they are in their enclosure before I leave. I am very paranoid and will always make sure your pets are safe.
About: I’ve had at least one cat and one dog my entire life. Including a yellow lab, beagle, fox hound and 9 cats. I currently have 4 cats and a 3 year old fox hound. I am in school and work part time, but am available most days. I can stop by as often as needed or stay with your pets, if that’s whats preferred. My sister has worked as a vet tech for the past 3 years and I’ve grown up with pets. I have a fenced In yard and all of my pets are friendly.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I love animals. I find it an honor for someone to trust me with their furry friends. I work as a free lancer so I’m available most days from 8am-6pm. I can stay the night if needed and am happy to sit over the weekend. When visiting a clients home I make sure that I do what I came there to do and not too much more! I make sure to clean up after pets and leave the way I found it.

“Great experience with Christa, we were able to drop off Mochi and pick her up without any worries. She also gave us progress pics and updates on how Mochi was doing. Christa also was very kind about us picking her up at night even though we were running behind.”

“Raghavi and her family were AMAZING!!! It was my first time booking a pet sitter, so I didn't really know what to expect, but I got so lucky! Raghavi let me do a little meet-and-greet before I even booked to make sure that Ryder was comfortable with her dog, which put me so at ease, and during the boarding itself, was so accommodating with Ryder's schedule (and went above and beyond by sending me lots of photos while I was away, which was such an unexpected but very nice and much appreciated surprise!) She was so easy to get in touch with, and when I needed an emergency extra couple of days covered, she was so flexible and easygoing about it. Definitely booking again!!! :)”

“Annette is the best! I actually hesitate to leave a review because I don't want all of her spaces to fill up! Your dog will be welcomed into the fold and Annette will ask you about - and then pay attention to - their needs. She has been fostering for so long, she has literally seen everything – and can deal with everything. Teddy had a great time, and I left with new insights into her behaviors. Annette is a gem.”

“This was our first time using Rover and our puppy was nervous and sad at first but quickly warmed up! We received pictures and updates of him throughout his stay! 10/10”
