“Chelsea-Jo and Austin were great! This was my pet's first time boarding and I was put at ease with all of the photos and updates I would get daily. They made it very easy to meet up even with being on base. Would book with them again!”
“Mickey and his family are awesome! They treat my my fur baby as if she was theirs. Love getting pictures and videos during her visits. The kennel will now only be used as my “back up” place. Highly recommend!”
“We thought we were going on vacation - nope, our dogs had the vacation of their lives!!! They love Mary and she clearly loves animals. Our beagle actually moped on the ride home 😂🤣”
“I can’t recommend Megha and Irene enough! They watched my dog, Zane, for 3 days and I felt completely at ease the entire time. I received regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. What a beautiful family! Megha clearly has a natural way with animals and treated Zane like family. She was able to accommodate a last minute change to my original reservation. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Megan was amazing! This was our first time having her board our dog and we were so impressed. She sent multiple pictures and videos everyday. We really felt like she welcomed our dog into her home and cared for him like he was her own. We will definitely be using Megan in the future and have already reccomended her to our friends and family.”
“Marcela was amazing! She kept my beagle, Dash. Marcela and her family were very welcoming and accommodating to us. I was able to bring my crate for my 5 month year old pup and she was able to provide daily updates with pictures. She has a very sweet daughter who was also loving and great experience for my dog. I am definitely going to return to Marcela! Thanks again!”
“Carlos took fantastic care of our dog Eddie! He was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates throughout Eddie's stay and also took Eddie on several walks a day. He really took great care of Eddie and it was really the best Rover stay Eddie has had yet! I could tell Eddie had a great time going on walks, playing with Carlos's dogs and I will definitely have Carlos watch him again in the future!”
“We could not have asked for a better experience with Jona! She recently cared for our two 4-year-old pugs, Ozzy and Otis, and it was truly the best pet-sitting experience we’ve ever had. From start to finish, Jona went above and beyond. She kept us updated frequently with messages and pictures, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every update that our pugs were not only being well cared for, but also genuinely loved. Both Ozzy and Otis can be a handful at times, but Jona handled everything with patience, kindness, and professionalism. Coming home, we were greeted by two very happy, relaxed pugs—which says everything you need to know. Jona treated them as if they were her own, and that level of care means the world to us. We wholeheartedly recommend Jona to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate sitter. She has set the standard so high that we can’t imagine trusting anyone else with our boys!”
“My dog had a great time. Came home and went right to sleep. Sabine sent a ton of photos and contacted me if she had any questions about the care of Duke. Super friendly and great.”
“AJ had a blast at Tammey's. We felt very comfortable leaving him there, and her husband is great with dogs as well. AJ was well loved and we got great pictures and feedback while we were away. We'll definitely use her again!”
“Garrett, Ana and their family were so wonderful. They were very communicative and took care of our golden, Pretzel so well. Pretzel had the best time with their family! My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving pretzel with them. We will definitely book with them again!!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with Seyla's pet sitting services. He provided multiple daily updates, including time-stamped videos and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our boys received plenty of exercise and were clearly well cared for—Seyla treated them as if they were his own. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, attentive, and caring sitter. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Emmanuel has been day boarding my family dog and my mom and sister raved about how amazing he was! So in a hectic situation, he was immediately who I chose. Emmanuel was absolutely incredible - I booked him for a long stay at the very last minute and he was accommodating and kind every step of the way. He gave me lots of daily updates on my pup and he has such an incredible home with a large backyard so pups can run and play :) my pup was so happy to be with Emmanuel and he also is very attentive to each animal in his care. He noticed some hot spots and sent them to me instantly and offered potential solutions. Theo absolutely adores him and I would absolutely book again in a heartbeat! If you want to have peace of mind that your pup is being fully taken care of, loved, and paid attention to, bring them to Emmanuel! Thank you so much, Emmanuel!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”
“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!”
“Adita was just fabulous taking care of my dogs for almost 5 days! I have never left them alone ever and this was my first time but she was so reliable and kept me out of worrying for my pups. She and her family took care of both my dogs. Best part was she kept sending me videos and pictures and also updates for my dogs food, walk and naps. I will definitely be trusting her again with my pups. She's simply the best.”
“Matthew treated our pups like they were his own. They were super happy and very well taken care of. Fantastic communication. Easy going and easy to work with. My pups already want to go back. Thanks for the fantastic experience!”
“Stacy and her family are the best! Our slightly nervous dog is clearly comfortable with them, which means so much. They were great when she got scared during recent thunderstorm, and we appreciate the consistent updates. Thank you!”
“Dana is awesome. She attended to my fur babies as if they were own. She sent me updates and videos everyday, twice a day. My furbabies definitely enjoyed themselves! I will definitely be rebooking in the future and sending others her way!”

About: I have always been an animal lover. I've had small,medium and extra large dogs! Growing up I was the kid that had rabbits, chickens, dogs and cats. I obtained my vet assistant certification to learn how to better care for my pets and have enjoyed spoiling them ever since! I'd love to help care for your fur babies. I am currently working until 4pm but I'm available any time after and on weekends. My husband is home during the day so there is always someone home to look after our pets. I have a park very close by along with nature trails for long walks. I have a 6 year old large baby who is able to keep anybody entertained.
“Kady loves and knows animals and it really shows. She's very communicative and professional. Kady went above and beyond to help clean up after a cat having new litter issues. She handled my 4 cats with no issues. I highly recommend her for anyone with cats and multiple animals. I will absolutely use Kady again in the future.”
“Caitlyn did a wonderful job! She came before my trip to need Ophelia and learn what needed to be done and how to care for her. She showed up each evening on time and sent pictures , brought in package for me and let me know if anything was out of the norm! I highly recommend and will have her in the future!”
“Steven is amazing! He is very kind, reliable, and so great with our cats. The peace of mind he gave us while we were away was priceless. We'll be turning to Steven from now on when we need a cat sitter!”
“That is a great addition—it shows she really understands different cat personalities, from the "spicy" ones who hate grooming to the shy ones. Here is the updated review with those details included: ### Review for Liz **Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Liz provided incredible care for my three cats while I was away. It is always a bit stressful leaving a multi-cat household, but Liz handled everything with total professionalism and genuine care. She stayed on top of their specific needs, including: * **Medication & Maintenance:** She reliably administered medicine and kept the litter boxes spotless. Food and water were always fresh and topped off. * **Frank:** I loved the updates about her playing with him; she made sure he got plenty of exercise with his favorite laser toy! * **Rudy:** She even managed to give Rudy a good brushing—something he usually hates when I do it! She clearly has a magic touch. * **Ryan:** For my hider, Ryan, Liz took the time to find her every day just to lay eyes on her and make sure she was safe and doing okay. It’s clear Liz truly loves animals and respects their individual boundaries. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and a tidy home. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, patient sitter!”
“Nicole did such an amazing job taking care of my babies. Her kids were great with them and my dog definitely enjoyed having them around to play with while she was caring for them. I felt so much better while I was away from them knowing that she was caring for them.”
About: Hi! I’m Amy, and I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years. What started as helping friends and family has grown into something I truly love—providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all kinds. I have experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, rabbits, goats, and more. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended pet sitting, I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routine. For dog walking, I’ve been doing it consistently for the past 2 years and understand how important exercise, structure, and safety are. I always make sure your dog gets the attention, activity, and care they deserve. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize keeping them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone experienced, dependable, and truly passionate about animals—I’d love to help care for your pets! I am currently working from home and most of the time my schedule is flexible, so my weekends and most of the week is open for whatever your pets may need! We have 3 acres of property so lots of room to run around however our yard is not fenced in. We have four dogs and two of them would be more than happy to be a playmate if needed!
“Melissa was just what we needed to cover our cat while we went on a trip! She was so sweet, kept us updated, and kept our kitty entertained while we were away! I would definitely recommend Melissa to any others looking for help with their pets!”
About: Had multiple dogs pretty much all my life, as well as cared for neighbors/friends animals before. I’ve also dealt with cats, had a cat previously. Love all 4 legged love bugs😁 I mostly DoorDash in the local area, just looking to expand my horizons and opportunities in my communities around me. Figure this will be a good way to connect with more people as well as enjoy some animal company Dogs and cats have always been regularly fed/watered/bathroom breaks in my family, mostly by yours truely. I love given pets and scratches to all that welcome it, as well as playing with toys or just running around in the yard/ walking around the neighborhood
About: I have over 15 years of dedicated pet care experience, I've consistently provided loving and responsible care for dogs of all sizes and breeds. My background includes daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication administration, and ensuring a comfortable environment for furry friends. My passion for animals shines through in my attentive care, regular updates, and commitment to maintaining open communication with pet parents. I somewhat recently lost my last furry family member to lymphoma. I’ve yet to get another one as it is difficult losing our furry family member. I would take them out first thing in the mornings, if they didn’t wake us up earlier to go outside. Then give them their breakfast and play/cuddle with them.
About: Working with animals has always been my passion. Right now I'm going to school to get my veterinary technician license. I have 2 pets of my own, Pepper and Teddy ages 8 and 6. I am currently working at a pet hospital as a veterinary assistant. We see a variety of dogs and cats, so I am comfortable around different breeds, big and small. I can provide plenty of belly ribs and TLC! I love working with puppies! It's so much fun when they come to the hospital. They are so playful and cuddly! I'm easy to get a long with. I'm a very dedicated and organized person. I would show your fur babies the love and care they deserve. I would treat them as if they were my own fur babies! *Please note availability will change weekly* I currently do not have a set schedule. I will keep my calendar updated as much a possible. If you have any question please ask When I'm not working, I'm spending time with my own pets. We go on walks in my neighborhood. There are two ponds in my neighborhood both dogs have a fun time sniffing anything and everything. We'll play a bunch of games, and explore all the smells around the neighborhood. I am comfortable feeding, administering medications. I will check fence or gates before letting a dog outside. Before leaving, I'll make sure to lock the doors and do one last check. Making sure the area the dog will stay in is clean and check that all trash can lids are locked, no food is on the counters, and that any gates or crate are secure.
“Krystin took care of my cat, Little Cow, with exceptional attention and enthusiasm during her drop-in visits. She went above and beyond to make sure both of us had the best experience possible. I really appreciated her willingness to accommodate any request and her genuine care for Little Cow’s well-being. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in great hands while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter!”
About: I personally have two dogs and two cats. I have spent about half of the last 7 years caring for friends animals ranging from daily visits with cats to a 6 month at one time boarding of a dog. I work full time so am usually out of the house Monday - Friday from 7 to 5. We have a small dog door that leads to a fully fenced backyard so dogs still have access to use the bathroom as needed. I have two dogs and two cats so the type of dog or cat that can stay with us needs to be okay with both. One of the dogs really likes to play with other dogs. He can play pretty aggressively and is also not neutered so I cannot watch unspayed females in my home. One of the cats was chased up a tree by a German Shepard and doesn't respond well to larger dogs if they don't give her her space. We have a setup where the animals sleep together in their own room and are only allowed on the furniture in that room. We have plenty of space and have spare crates if needed. The dogs always have access to a dog door except for when they go to their room at night to sleep. We have two litter boxes set up in different parts of the house and have spares that can be put out.
“Cece was wonderful (caring and dependable). So happy to have found her to care for our dog. Her love for dogs is equal to her knowledge of dogs. Excellent sitter --- we will use her again.”
About: I have watched many breeds and types of animals dogs, cats, birds, and more. I look at the type of animal it’s age and many other things to see how that animal needs to be taken care of! I can watch dogs any day on the weekend and most days after 5pm. I work in the military so that is why my schedule is so tight. (Relatively) I care for pets as if they’re my own animal! Animals are sweet and innocent and deserve the world because they take care of us when we need it.

“Mickey is amazing with dogs. He knows exactly what he is talking about and it is clear that he just has our Dexter’s best interest at heart while he is in his care. So happy we found someone that matches our needs so well!”
“This was my first booking with Seyla. I must admit my anxiety level was through the roof. Darla is very active, stubborn and has not been around other dogs. My anxiety melted away after receiving videos and pictures of Darla on several hikes socializing and running with the other dogs. This was an awesome experience for both of us. I already booked her next adventure with Seyla 🐕🙌🏽”
“Garrett, Ana and their children were wonderful with Piper. They treated Piper like a member of their family. I would definitely recommend and call on them again.”

“Jordyn was great - very flexible with timing which was a huge help since we were on the road and weren't sure exactly when we would get there. Zeke had a really great time with her - sad for him since it was only for one night! We will definitely be contacting Jordyn again in the future when we come to the area again!”
“Our golden retriever Berlin loves Lizabeth and her family! We see pictures and get updates throughout the day, and Lizabeth makes sure there is always playtime, walk time, and training time! She even trimmed our pup’s paws. We are grateful Lizabeth is our dedicated puppy sitter who tends to our dog as if he was her own!”

About: I can accommodate your pets needs. My home is ideally suited for pets–a spacious, fully-fenced backyard for dogs to run around safely, I will maintain a calming presence with your dog. Walking/ running, fetch the ball are some outdoor activities to strengthen the bond with your dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a dog and have kept dogs for others. I take our dog out for walks and play-time with other dogs in the neighborhood . Diesel is very friendly, energetic and loving. My house has a large fenced yard. It’s not my practice to crate dogs. However, I can crate your dog if requested. I provide dog beds and allow dogs to move about freely. No one else will be assisting me with caring for your dog.
“Our long-time star Rover host had to go back to work in the office. I am lucky to have found Veronica who lives five minutes away from my job site. She is reliable and promptly responds to my inquiry and booking. My dog, Mr. Blinky, a three-year-old miniature poodle, is usually cautious around new people and dog. She warm welcomed him into her house and he made fast friends with her dog, Zachariah. Blinky goes for a walk and plays with Zachariah who is the same size as him. He enjoys his stay there a lot and now becomes her weekly regular.”
About: Growing up, my mom has always had at least 6 cats in the house and 2 dogs since i was the age of 10. I learned from my mom and sister to help take care of our pets and how to take care of them. My friends and acquaintances know how loving my family is of animals so I was always the one they called if they needed pet care. I’ve fostered cats and dogs ( when I don’t want them for myself); I’ve gone to friends houses to care for their pets; I’ve kept pets at my home for friends; I’ve trained many kitties and puppies; I’ve seen the most of it. Let me know what you and your fur babies need so we can figure out a plan! As of now I’m currently available 24/7. I am looking to find a more stable job soon, which will be part time. I can always see if I can work my schedule around yours as well, so let me know! I have a fenced in yard which is great for dogs to run around freely and 2 friendly dogs who do great with other pets and people! I have 6 cats, 2 of which are indoor and 4 of which are indoor and outdoor cats. I do have a room where I can isolate any pets that don’t do well with other animals and if you wish for me to keep them in a crate at any time, I can make that happen! I’m experienced in walking dogs and cats; the harnesses, leashes and all! I can bathe any doggies that might get dirty from an outside adventure if I have your permission and of course if I’m in your home, I’ll be sure to clean up any messes. Potty training isn’t a problem for me and accidents happen! If you have any preferred products you’d like me to use for clean up, let me know! If you feel there’s anything I’ve missed just contact me for further details. (:
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I enjoy taking care of animals, spending time with them. I’m willing to work with your puppies or senior dogs providing good care. I have a lot of free time right now and would love to spend it helping take care of other dogs whether that’s walking them, playing with them or simply giving them attention. And making sure they are well cared for! I have a fenced and spacious yard. My home is dog-friendly, clean and safe. I’ll keep you updated on your pet with photos and messages.
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for over 13 years. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends, family, and others who have trusted me with their pets. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and needs, and I approach each one with patience, consistency, and kindness. My experience includes daily walks, exercise, mental stimulation, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing calm, reliable care, especially for dogs who need extra reassurance or structure. I have firsthand experience working with shelter dogs and understand how important trust and routine are in helping dogs feel safe and confident. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make each walk or visit a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet sitting and dog walking fit perfectly into my current schedule. We recently moved to the area, and at this time I am not pursuing full-time employment so I can settle in, explore the community, and maintain a flexible daily routine. All of my children are in school, and my own dogs are on a consistent schedule with early morning walks and daily exercise starting around 5:00 AM. This routine allows me to be fully present for my pets first thing in the morning while freeing up a large portion of my day for additional walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Because of this structure, I am reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate daytime and early afternoon care with consistency and attention. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and my schedule allows me to provide unhurried, attentive care to every animal I work with. I am a very meticulous person and strongly believe that a clean environment is a safe environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, organization, and consistency to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I keep living spaces tidy, food and water areas clean, and ensure toys, leashes, and resting areas are safe and well-maintained. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting care as needed to reduce stress and promote well-being. My goal is to provide calm, dependable care in a clean, structured environment so pets feel safe, relaxed, and at home, no matter where they are.

We live in an amazing pet friendly community with plenty of room for your pet to get ample exercise.
“Apollo loves coming here and being able to play with other dogs. After a not so great experience with a different Rover sitter, Alex and Eddie have put my mind at ease for our 10 month old German Shepard puppy who needs to be running around at all times.”

About: I’ve always had a deep love and respect for animals. From a young age, I’ve felt a special connection with all creatures, big and small. This passion has driven me to not only understand their needs but to also dedicate myself to ensuring they receive the best possible care. Whether it’s through daily walks, providing enrichment activities, or simply offering a safe and loving environment, I’m committed to giving animals the attention and compassion they deserve. I believe that every animal, just like every person, has unique needs and a personality that should be nurtured. I’m here to make sure your furry, scaly, or feathered friends are in the best hands possible. I work from home and can provide services on a flexible schedule from day and/or night daycare, walks, potty breaks and training. I also have reliable transportation for pets. I have a fenced yard, large inside area and designed space for animal care. All animals have space to enjoy and feel safe and loved.
“Steven is fantastic. I had a family emergency and the person who normally walked Tully was unavailable. Contacted Steve and he came right away for a meet and greet. My dog is a rescue so he doesn’t always do well with strangers but he was so happy with Steve right away. Steve asked if he could take Tully on a short introductory walk to make sure they were a good match which made me much more comfortable. Definitely would recommend Steve! Amazing with both families and fur babies!”
About: I've had dogs in my life ever since I could walk! I have always loved furry friends and the joy that they bring. I've personally owned bully breeds, labradors/labradoodles, and shelties. I have cared for dogs as large as Mastiffs and as small as Yorkies. I currently own a friendly, loving, labradoodles named Beau! I'm currently a stay at home dog mama. My schedule is very flexible! I can help with walks, check ins, boarding in my home, and daycare in my home. I have 3 children ages 8,7,5 who share my love for furry friends. I have a labradoodle named Beau who is very friendly, playful and would be thrilled for some playmates!
About: I’ve loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember. From dogs and hamsters to turtles, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a variety of pets throughout my life. Caring for animals has allowed me to build strong relationships and trust with family, friends, and neighbors who rely on me to look after their beloved companions. As I’ve grown older, my love for every living creature has only deepened, and that passion shines through in the care I provide. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and happy while you are away! I am a recent graduate from Virginia Commonwealth University! Though I am looking for fellowships, I would love to spend time caring for any pets that need some quality time and attention. I drive a small fiat, and will arrive and enter property per specific pet instructions! I will always make sure to keep a cleanly space and leave everything as it was, while also guaranteeing your loved one is set up before my departure.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds all my life. I currently have my own 2 year old labrador mix who I have raised since he was 5 weeks old. I absolutely adore pets and know how important they are to owners and all pet parents. I am currently home for the summer and am studying for my license exam to become a licensed mental health professional. I am very flexible and open in terms of availability. I have a fenced backyard and my own socialized and friendly dog of my own. Also have a basement, if privacy concerns arise. Thank you.
About: I’ve grown up caring for animals and have had 2 cats for 10 years and 2 dogs for the past 4 years (in separate homes). I have experience with dog walking, dog sitting, and cat care, including feeding, playtime, while their owners are away. I am very comfortable handling different personalities from energetic dogs to independent cats. I am responsible and will treat your pet like my own while following any instructions you provide. I am also very active, so I enjoy keeping dogs engaged and getting them the exercise they need! I am currently still in school, so I am only available on weekends at any time. After this month, I will have more flexibility and be available any day of the week. I have a fenced yard and two friendly Labrador mix dogs. I make sure pets are always supervised, safe, and comfortable, and I focus on keeping a calm and secure environment based on their needs.

“Cece has been really great! She always takes my girl out for an extended stroll in the park and I so appreciate her for it. If there is ever an issue or something that may need your attention she is very commutative. And when ive had unforseen circumstances and needed someone last minute she has definitely come through. I would highly recommend Cece”

“Veronica did such a good job with my German Shepard! Took lots of pictures and was right on time! She even refilled his water dish. Was a little nervous because it was his first time but everything was perfect.”

About: Working with animals has always been my passion. Right now I'm going to school to get my veterinary technician license. I have 2 pets of my own, Pepper and Teddy ages 8 and 6. I am currently working at a pet hospital as a veterinary assistant. We see a variety of dogs and cats, so I am comfortable around different breeds, big and small. I can provide plenty of belly ribs and TLC! I love working with puppies! It's so much fun when they come to the hospital. They are so playful and cuddly! I'm easy to get a long with. I'm a very dedicated and organized person. I would show your fur babies the love and care they deserve. I would treat them as if they were my own fur babies! *Please note availability will change weekly* I currently do not have a set schedule. I will keep my calendar updated as much a possible. If you have any question please ask When I'm not working, I'm spending time with my own pets. We go on walks in my neighborhood. There are two ponds in my neighborhood both dogs have a fun time sniffing anything and everything. We'll play a bunch of games, and explore all the smells around the neighborhood. I am comfortable feeding, administering medications. I will check fence or gates before letting a dog outside. Before leaving, I'll make sure to lock the doors and do one last check. Making sure the area the dog will stay in is clean and check that all trash can lids are locked, no food is on the counters, and that any gates or crate are secure.
About: I would love to care for your dog like my own. Those cuddles while watching tv, and going for walks. Being outside, or even curling up in a blanket. I want to be able to show love for your puppy, whenever is possible. I have owned an dog for most of my life! I either had a family dog, or a dog of my own. Looking for the chance to still be able to have those cute dog moments. Being able to care for dog just like you would! Thank you for looking at my page! Hope to hear from you!! My pet care fits into my daily routine by being on a schedule and listening to my pet on its wants and needs. I don’t know how to pivot from a routine I care for animals like they are my own. I believe animals know what each other needs and know how to listen to them, if that is cuddling on the couch or spending hours outside.
“Eils did an excellent job of caring for my puppy. Beauregard looks forward to his walks and playing ball with Eilis. I highly recommend her. She is very knowledgeable as well as reliable.”

“Mickey and his family are awesome! They treat my my fur baby as if she was theirs. Love getting pictures and videos during her visits. The kennel will now only be used as my “back up” place. Highly recommend!”
“We thought we were going on vacation - nope, our dogs had the vacation of their lives!!! They love Mary and she clearly loves animals. Our beagle actually moped on the ride home 😂🤣”
“I can’t recommend Megha and Irene enough! They watched my dog, Zane, for 3 days and I felt completely at ease the entire time. I received regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. What a beautiful family! Megha clearly has a natural way with animals and treated Zane like family. She was able to accommodate a last minute change to my original reservation. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“David and his family did a great job with our puppy, Dobby. In fact I would say that we got Dobby back better trained and socialized than when he was dropped off for 2 weeks. Thanks for all the attention.”
“Megan was amazing! This was our first time having her board our dog and we were so impressed. She sent multiple pictures and videos everyday. We really felt like she welcomed our dog into her home and cared for him like he was her own. We will definitely be using Megan in the future and have already reccomended her to our friends and family.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with Seyla's pet sitting services. He provided multiple daily updates, including time-stamped videos and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our boys received plenty of exercise and were clearly well cared for—Seyla treated them as if they were his own. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, attentive, and caring sitter. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Yolismal and her family took very good care of our two small dogs for the weekend. They have a friendly and welcoming household and lots of experience caring for pups of all kinds—ours didn’t want to leave. Highly recommended!”
“I can’t thank Tanita & Terrence enough for taking such great care of my fur baby. He was so sad to leave. I believe Sage had more fun than I did on his weekend getaway 😆”
“Camila was the best! She took amazing care of our pup, sent daily updates and pictures, and was very communicative. We’d definitely use Camila again in the future - highly recommend!”
“If I could give Heather more than 5 stars, I would!! She was EXCELLENT with my foster dog, Sam & took great care of him. She sent me updates throughout the day and made sure Sam was comfortable & at ease. It was my 1st time leaving Sam with anyone & because he's so fearful of strangers I was very nervous about how he'd react to being left with some he didn't know. Needless to say, he had fun & I didn't worry about him. If you're looking first a great sitter for your dog, u won't go wrong with Heather.”
“Emmanuel has been day boarding my family dog and my mom and sister raved about how amazing he was! So in a hectic situation, he was immediately who I chose. Emmanuel was absolutely incredible - I booked him for a long stay at the very last minute and he was accommodating and kind every step of the way. He gave me lots of daily updates on my pup and he has such an incredible home with a large backyard so pups can run and play :) my pup was so happy to be with Emmanuel and he also is very attentive to each animal in his care. He noticed some hot spots and sent them to me instantly and offered potential solutions. Theo absolutely adores him and I would absolutely book again in a heartbeat! If you want to have peace of mind that your pup is being fully taken care of, loved, and paid attention to, bring them to Emmanuel! Thank you so much, Emmanuel!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Lilian was so kind and welcoming! I loved that she kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos. She took such great care of my puppy Nova over the weekend. Nova had so much fun running around she came home and went to bed 😂. We will definitely be back! Thank you!!”
