“LaTasha provided such great care to Deuce. The videos and pictures sent each day helped me in knowing that he was having fun and in a safe place. I will absolutely use her services again.”

“I highly recommend Kelly & Maurice. Upon first meeting them - I sensed good, loving vibes about them. They took care of my shih tzu for seven days and did a wonderful job. I received daily videos and pictures showing how well they cared for him, which made my vacation even more enjoyable. I'm truly blessed to have found them and will definitely be booking with them soon.”

“I love love LOVE having CiCi care for my fur baby Charli! She stayed four nights without her baby shadow, my other spoiled pooch, and she enjoyed outdoor play, made new friends, and even got a manicure and pedicure! I always feel confident leaving my dogs in her care because she cares for them as if they are her own. I recommended her recently to my neighbor for her puppy and she is also pleased with the care she received. We will continue to use her for our extended stay needs for sure!”

“Nikki is absolutely amazing. My dog is very nervous around people, she did not rush him. Initially, I reached out to have her handle some dinners a couple of times a year but then I had an unexpected death in the family that required me to go out of town for seven days. She was wonderful working around my schedule. We received multiple updates showing how happy he is hanging with her family and dogs. This meant the world to us knowing he was is such good hands.”

“Needed last minute care for the July 4th holiday and found Aaron and Tia! Very accomodating and happy i chose them! I was worried Howie would get anxious but the daily photos and videos assured me he was well cared for and happy! Thank you so much!”

“Lindsay is amazing! I took a trip abroad and left my fur babies in her care while I was away and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Lindsay is very responsive and provided pictures and updates without me ever having to ask. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs. I will most definitely be sending my babies back to her for future trips.”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”

“Tanita and Terrence always do a stellar job taking care of our husky. Their communication, videos and pics are always reassuring and frequent. We’re very grateful to have their care, services, and support as a resource so our mind can be at ease while we’re traveling. Thank you Tanita and Terrence!”


“Thank you Kelly for giving Milly a great home away from home! Milly had a blast playing with Kelly's dog River and the other dogs that stayed with her. Definitely will continue to send my Milly there!”

“Rena took excellent care of my fur baby. I could tell from the many updates and photos he had a wonderful time during his boarding with her. I will definitely reach out to Rena in the very near future for her services.”

“Lilian took care of my pets like I would take care of them AND THEN SOME. She made it a point to keep me updated with photos, address with me behaviors or any physical health issues. (my pet had a watery/sticky eye). I really appreciated the prior meet and greet with Lilian’s family and her pets too. Overall, she is very professional and it’s clear she loves to take care of animals.”

“The real truth in caring for your pets and family member. Can't say enough of how communicative, thoughtful and calming they are as hosts. My dogs never stayed with a sitter before and praise God that he sent me to the right team.”

“This was our first time boarding our furbaby with Vanessa & Gio and it will not be the last! We loved getting our daily check ins while we were away and Gio even took the time to work on some training tips with our Denim. Our girl is still tired 2 days later! Thank you both for caring for our baby while we were away.”

“Lori was amazing! She was very caring and attentive to both of out dogs and their unique needs. Lori went above and beyond to ensure they had a great experience while we were away!”

“Perfect sitter for our furbaby! She took special care of Him! You can tell she really loves dogs. Her attention to detail especially towards our senior dog was greatly appreciated. He felt like it was his home away from home, evidenced by the way he did not want to leave lol. We will indeed be a repeat customer and would highly recommend Monica for your furbaby as well.”

“Thank you Elizabeth, for taking such great care of our boy Max. He requires extra attention due to his separation anxiety. You treated him like he was your own, allowing him to be a lap dog as big as he is. He loves to be next to people. You provided us with pictures and updates on how he was doing. We enjoyed our trip, knowing he was being well taken care of. Elizabeth, you went out of your way to help us stay calm when our flight was significantly delayed. We will definitely use your services again.”

“Denise and Mike are incredible. Our 2 dogs have stayed with them at least 3 times now and they feel right at home. This family is accommodating, quick to respond, is very communicative, and is great with sending photos. I love that they have a space with a couch that’s open and cool for the dogs to hang out in that’s in the main space of the house. The fenced in back yard allows our girls to roam and play. I trust Denise and Mike 100000% with our fur babies, it’s clear from the photos that they are well taken care of, loved, cuddled, and a part of their family while we are away. Thanks Denise and Mike!!!”

“My girls enjoyed their stay. They came home happy and ready to go again. I highly appreciate Dasia keeping up with my senior's eye drops to include logging when she received them.”

About: Hi, My name is Shyann and I’m a cat lover who has owned cats since I can remember. I’ll make sure to care for your bestie as if they were my own! Will provide care for cats of any age and will make sure they feel comfortable, safe and cared for :)

About: I've lived with a ragdoll cat for a few years and have taken care of my friends' cats while they were out of town. I can feed your cat, join them in some playtime, and clean their litter box. If your cat is shy and prefers to be left alone, I'll still make sure to seek them out to confirm there ok before leaving. I am not comfortable administering medications.
“Amber was great. She gave me a time that would work for her because she couldn’t do my time and turns out that worked too. I’m a dummy and thought I updated my address so it sent her to the wrong house and she still went to my right address to leave the pups out. Luna and Kallie look like they had a great time and can definitely trust her with my girls!”


“Linda was great! Super responsive, wonderful with the dogs, and sent great pictures so we could see them throughout the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Cynthia did an amazing job watching my cat, Rory. She always kept me in the loop and sent picture updates throughout my trip! Will definitely go to her for any pet sitting needs in the future :)! Thank you!”


“Ashley did a fantastic job with our cats and we have a lot of them including some fosters. She came on time for each visit, played with all of the cats and kept our Litter Robots spotless. We will 100% book her again for our future tripe”


“Synia A. was fantastic! She was kind, dependable, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire pet-sitting experience. She met all my requirements and made sure all of my pet needs were taken care of as well. She also has great communication skills and gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her services.”

About: My name is Kelly. I am 28 Currently I am a paramedic. I have always been an animal lover. I have a 10 year old Shetland Sheepdog and 5 cats ! For about 10 years, I have walked and taken care of my neighbors dog when they needed me to for many years. I can do walks and drop ins. Please message me if you think I would be a good fit for you and your furry friend ! I work every other week. So I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I love to get them excited and tired out. I do not do this from home. I am very safe. I will make sure all doors and fences are secure, and watch when I leave.

“Vanessa was great! I received a lot of pictures and updates which was greatly appreciated. She was timely with the drop in visits and I felt comfortable with her taking of my 2 cats. Will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Ben is absolutely wonderful! He took such good care of our two senior cats! If you want your pet to be cared for by someone who is attentive, kind, and loves pets- Ben is your pick! Thanks again!!”

“Morgan was FANTASTIC! I had never left my cat with anyone except my best friend and was extremely nervous about traveling for the holidays after she moved away. Morgan's expertise and care made it possible for my girl to stay in her comfort zone, and for me to be with family without severe anxiety. He communicated clearly and often, gave me great updates (and photos!), and was the perfect mix of professional and personable. He took plenty of time with her even when he came out on Christmas Day. He clearly understood cat psychology and Cleo adored him for it (I'm a little shocked because she does not typically warm up to people that quickly at all!). All in all I could not be more thrilled to have found a trustworthy source of care for my baby girl, and will definitely be using Morgan again in the future! 🧡”


About: I’ve had dogs for my whole life, and cats I’ve been around for half my life. I only started fully taking care of them at 13 when I was more responsible! I’m 18 now and have watched scared cats, friendly cats, and avoidant cats!
“Trina helped us check in on our cat, and responded promptly to my request. She’s professional, courteous, and maintained communication throughout the whole process. She gave our cat some treats, food, checked on her water, and most importantly she gave her some love 😻. My cat enjoyed Trina’s company and was PURRRing on the phone !🧡 Trina was kind enough to offer to check in on my backyard hens when I mentioned that I was little worried about them too. We appreciate all your help and the peace of mind you gave us while we’re away. 🙏”

“Christina is our go-to gal for watching our kitty! She is thorough in her notes each day and always sends adorable pictures. She’s very patient even when there’s a present on the floor 😅. We know our kitty (and houseplants!) is in great hands with Christina.”

With a safe, comfortable home and a fully fenced yard with plenty of shade, your dog will have space to play, relax, and feel right at home.

Our family of dedicated dog carers includes full-time and part-time workers, ensuring that someone is always home to give your pup the attention and care they deserve.

Treat time is always a highlight, and in the evening, we wind down with a final walk before tucking your pup into bed with soothing music for a peaceful night’s sleep. If your dog is more of a lounger and loves to relax while watching TV, we’re happy to accommodate their favorite pastimes, too! Your dog becomes part of our routine—and part of our family.

“This was my very first-time using Rover, and when I say I am overly pleased. Richardine is AWESOME! I was so nervous to use the service because I had just had a pup pass away, and I did not know what I was going to do going forward. I did a meet and greet with Richardine, and I knew at that moment, my pup will be with Richardine each time I will need a sitter. Very personable, reliable, and made sure I received photos throughout the day to let me know what my pup was doing. Once I picked my pup up, she was playing, and happy. I am truly overjoyed with the service that I received. Thank you so much Richardine, and I will see you very soon. Latisha M.”

“Karma is a very energetic pup and she is tired out which was our end goal. Onayda is very attentive and provided my pup and safe spacious area to play and socialize. I have already booked her next daily visit!!”
“Chris and Kelly are extremely sweet, understanding, loving and caring. If you choose them as a sitter your baby will be in safe/loving hands. I look forward to using their services again!”

My time is flexible during the weekdays and I can be available on most weekends if needed. My goal is to help your animal feel at ease by providing the same loving care you would for them. I've been recently laid off so this has given me more time with my dog Calla. She is walked every day for approximately 3 miles. She loves playing with sticks and toys and also her little brother Jinx the American short haired cat.

They would have all permissions as my dogs! I will take them out, check them for tics or anything hurting them if they show it. Feed them obviously! And give them treats on certain occasions, or whenever you say I can give them. I take my time with them and love them with my whole heart! Your dog will be treated exactly how I treat mine!

“I love love LOVE having CiCi care for my fur baby Charli! She stayed four nights without her baby shadow, my other spoiled pooch, and she enjoyed outdoor play, made new friends, and even got a manicure and pedicure! I always feel confident leaving my dogs in her care because she cares for them as if they are her own. I recommended her recently to my neighbor for her puppy and she is also pleased with the care she received. We will continue to use her for our extended stay needs for sure!”

“Nikki is absolutely amazing. My dog is very nervous around people, she did not rush him. Initially, I reached out to have her handle some dinners a couple of times a year but then I had an unexpected death in the family that required me to go out of town for seven days. She was wonderful working around my schedule. We received multiple updates showing how happy he is hanging with her family and dogs. This meant the world to us knowing he was is such good hands.”

“Needed last minute care for the July 4th holiday and found Aaron and Tia! Very accomodating and happy i chose them! I was worried Howie would get anxious but the daily photos and videos assured me he was well cared for and happy! Thank you so much!”

“Lindsay is amazing! I took a trip abroad and left my fur babies in her care while I was away and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Lindsay is very responsive and provided pictures and updates without me ever having to ask. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs. I will most definitely be sending my babies back to her for future trips.”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”

“Tanita and Terrence always do a stellar job taking care of our husky. Their communication, videos and pics are always reassuring and frequent.

Overall, she is very professional and it’s clear she loves to take care of animals.”

“This was our first time boarding our furbaby with Vanessa & Gio and it will not be the last! We loved getting our daily check ins while we were away and Gio even took the time to work on some training tips with our Denim. Our girl is still tired 2 days later! Thank you both for caring for our baby while we were away.”

“Thank you Elizabeth, for taking such great care of our boy Max. He requires extra attention due to his separation anxiety. You treated him like he was your own, allowing him to be a lap dog as big as he is. He loves to be next to people. You provided us with pictures and updates on how he was doing. We enjoyed our trip, knowing he was being well taken care of. Elizabeth, you went out of your way to help us stay calm when our flight was significantly delayed. We will definitely use your services again.”

“Denise and Mike are incredible. Our 2 dogs have stayed with them at least 3 times now and they feel right at home. This family is accommodating, quick to respond, is very communicative, and is great with sending photos. I love that they have a space with a couch that’s open and cool for the dogs to hang out in that’s in the main space of the house. The fenced in back yard allows our girls to roam and play. I trust Denise and Mike 100000% with our fur babies, it’s clear from the photos that they are well taken care of, loved, cuddled, and a part of their family while we are away. Thanks Denise and Mike!!!”

“My girls enjoyed their stay. They came home happy and ready to go again. I highly appreciate Dasia keeping up with my senior's eye drops to include logging when she received them.”


“My dogs had a great time staying with Brian! He provided me with daily updates with a photo or video included, which was much appreciated! My boys were well taken care of which made my business trip much easier! I would not hesitate to use Brian again.”
“Cameron was great with our dog! She was able to accommodate us with short notice and attend to the special needs of our pup. Our dog had lots of play and attention. We would definitely recommend!”

“Taylor ALWAYS provides the best care for my pup. She’s super attentive to her, extremely communicative with me always providing photos and videos throughout our dog’s stay. Taylor is even quick to alert us if she notices even the slightest thing that may be cause for concern. We will continue to book with Taylor over and over again!”

“Erwin was very easy to work with for my two dogs. He has a nice big yard at his house for the dogs to stretch their legs, sniff, and do their business. He was very communicative before and during the stay as well, sending me pictures and videos of my dogs each day, and reassuring me they were eating well. Looking forward to working with Erwin again, and my GF is going to board her pups with Erwin later this year when we have a 10-day trip planned. Can’t recommend this Retired Veteran dog-sitter enough!”
