“Mady and her family were the best! My pup enjoyed walks, a large backyard to run around in, and the company of dog playmates. Mady consistently sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend Mady’s services, and will be rebooking with her again!”
“Everything was great! She took such a great care of my 3dogs including a puppy and daily pictures and video clip helped us a lot! I will bring my dogs to Shuling again!!”
“I HIGHLY recommend Donna. She was GREAT with Prince and very communicative and kept me updated with Prince by sending photos and videos. She even trained him a little and he now knows how to go into his crate by command. I absolutely will hire Donna again, if she’s available. Thanks so much Donna!”
“This was my first time using Rover. Lynette and Vincent were amazing! We did an initial meet &:greet the day before which made the drop off very easy! They sent daily updates with pictures which was very reassuring! I will definitely use them sgain!:”

“Sabrina is great! From the time I entered her house, I knew my dog would feel tended to and right at home. She’s so sweet and genuinely loves dogs. After picking my pup up, it’s like she didn’t miss a beat at all. Looking forward to engaging with Sabrina regularly - what a find!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mary. My dog struggles with separation anxiety, so leaving her can be stressful, but she was in incredibly capable and compassionate hands. From the start, it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she boards and takes the time to understand their individual needs. She was patient, attentive, and proactive in making sure my dog felt comfortable and secure. I received updates that gave me peace of mind, and it was obvious my dog was being well cared for. When I picked her up, she was calm, happy, and clearly had been treated with kindness. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Eli took care of our rambunctious Nala girl for 5 days while in the Dominican Republic. We never had to worry about her and got updates of her walks. We can't wait for our next trips in the future knowing we have an expert caring for her!”

“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“This was Denzel’s second stay with Corey and it was great! Corey sent updates throughout the day and accepted my last minute request to extend the stay. I really appreciate his flexibility, communication, and the care he shows Denzel. Thank you!”
“Lindsay was just who we needed to care for our boy Migo! I can tell she cares very deeply about the animals entrusted to her, and Migo was no exception. Even as an anxious dog, his short vacation with them left him a l little bummed out to be leaving! For a caring and devoted animal lover to watch over your own, look no further! Lindsay truly is the best of the best and I am forever grateful for her. 💙”
“I am always hesitant to leave my dog with anyone, but Marta made me feel so comfortable and I knew Hibana would be in great hands! I knew from the moment we did a meet & greet before we officially did the booking. Helped me get to know her and her own two dogs and it was great! Hibana has the best 5 days there :) and I got pictures every day which made me feel better about leaving my dog lol. Hibana is an apartment dog so she was in love with Marta’s back yard. And since this is Marta’s full time job her attention was on the dogs all the time. Would 100% recommend. If I could give her 10 stars I would lol.”
“Brian and Sheena were so awesome with my lil fur baby! They sent lots of pictures and kept me abreast of my dog’s status. This was her first stay with them and we look forward to many more stays with this wonderful duo. Trellis”
“Lori is always so considerate of owners and shares pictures, videos, and frequent updates or our pets. We will continue to use her services, as she is an amazing caregiver!”

About: Hi! Cats have always been a huge part of my life, and I have years of experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds. I have a cat of my own, foster cats and kittens, and have worked in animal shelters caring for everything from tiny neonatal kittens to senior cats. Through my shelter experience, I’ve cared for friendly, shy, fearful, and even feral cats, so I understand that every cat has different needs and comfort levels. I use Fear Free handling techniques whenever possible to help cats feel safe, respected, and as stress-free as possible. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications and following any special care instructions your cat may need. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet company, or simply needs someone to keep their routine consistent while you’re away, I’ll provide patient, compassionate care and treat them like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your cat is in experienced, caring, and reliable hands.
“Valerie was absolutely amazing!! She was really attentive and affectionate with my baby boy and she provided wonderful updates with pictures and videos. If you need someone to take care of your pet while you’re gone, she’s your girl! I give her 10 out of 5 stars!!! ⭐️ ✨🌟💫”
“Kaylee, is so sweet and professional. Chase seems to really enjoy her company. She followed directions and communicated well with any concerns or questions. I’m looking forward to working with Kaylee again.”
“Great service. Taylor kept in touch with me the entire time. My BigBoy was taken great care of and Thank you for the extras you took care of too. Will definitely use her again.”
“Courtney did an amazing job of taking care of my cat while I was on vacation. Food, water, and litter were good to go the whole time. She even got him to come out of hiding and play around, sending multiple pictures for peace of mind. Overall 5/5, completely hassle free, if I need a pet sitter again she’ll be the first I ask.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Sarah. Communication was great while organizing the booking and during our trip. Our 2 cats warmed up to Sarah quickly and she kept us updated on how they were doing at every visit. I highly recommend Sarah and will definitely book her again in the future.”
“Goldie Loves Milanni! Milanni is someone I can count on for drop-ins or boarding when I’m traveling around the world. I appreciate how easy it is to communicate with her and she confidently takes care of business without any worry. Goldie appreciates Milanni being part of her caregiving community when I am away. I recommend Milanni for your pet and caregiving needs.”
About: I've taken care of pets my entire life, I currently have 3 senior cats and 1 senior dog. I have 2 years of experience working in pet care facilities so I'm more than capable of handling all types of dogs and cats, including reactive/possessive dogs. I've been trained in cleaning, playing, monitoring play groups, feeding, and giving medication to all different sizes, breeds, and reactivity of dogs. I believe every pet deserve love and patience and I enjoy providing them with that. I also worked specifically with reactive/aggressive dogs for a year so feel free to reach out if you're dog needs a little more effort than most. :) I don't currently have a set schedule so feel free to reach out and we can figure out what works best for myself and your pets. I can walk, play with, feed, let out to potty, clean up after, and give meds to your wonderful pets depending on your needs. :)
About: As a fellow cat lover with a sharp mind and a great sense of humor, I know that cats are some of the smartest, funniest creatures around. That’s why I provide more than just basic care—I’ll keep your clever kitty engaged and entertained, whether they’re showing off their playful antics or enjoying a quiet moment of purring. With me as their sitter, they’ll get the attention they deserve, with a bit of witty charm thrown in to match their personality. Rest assured, your smart, funny cat will be in great hands, getting the best care and lots of love while you’re away!
About: Apart from the 9 years I was in the Navy, there has never been a time in my life where there wasn't a cat in my household. The cats we had were often my only friends, and they often display a depth of emotion, personality and intelligence that society sadly tends to dismiss. I have three senior cats of my own, so I am experienced in administering pills and supplements (I am not experienced in injections, though). All three of my cats are also harness and leash trained, and Mango knows how to open doors and lead me to exactly what he wants!
“We had a wonderful experience with Jake, who stopped by twice to care for our three cats and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent throughout, and he was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about our cats’ well-being. We would absolutely trust Jake again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable and trustworthy pet care.”
About: I've started taking care of my best friend's cat while he and his family were on vacation the summer of 2023. His name was Dash and he was a good kitty. I would make drop-in visits and feed him and check if his litter box needed changing. My sister was impressed by my care for Dash that she hired me to take care of her cats. All three of them were named after The Powerpuff Girls, and just like them, they were very good girls! Each year my sister needed to go out of town for business, she would look to me to take care of her three cats. I'd like to be as reliable for other people's cats as I am to my sister and my friend.
“Jessica was very responsible and extremely caring and hands-on with our senior cat (and hamster too). She did several check-ins a day and spent many overnights which requires a high level of trust and Jessica went above and beyond. She communicated constantly with updates, pictures and videos (seriously, top-notch communication) and she left our home in perfect condition. Our animals took right to her and I am grateful to have found someone so kind and committed.”
“Mary is AMAZING. My kitty is sweet but particular about who she hides from or greets. She LIVES Mary and greets her at the door just as she does us. I always know when I have to travel that Luna is in excellent hands. Mary treats her with such love.”

About: If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog like family, you're in the right place. Dogs have been a part of my life for 20+ years, and caring for them is something I truly love. I've raised and cared for three of my own rescued dogs, Mumbles, Rose, and Benny. I have experience boarding dogs in my home, providing drop-in visits, potty breaks and dog walking for neighbors, and house-sitting for a special needs dog. I've also volunteered with multiple dog rescue groups and was a foster "fail" momma to the sweetest, most sensitive Staffy you could ever meet. Dogs are family and bring me so much joy. When your dog stays with me, my goal is simple: to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I work from home and have flexible weekends, so your fur baby won't be left alone for long stretches. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Every dog is different, so their routine can be tailored to their individual needs and what they’re used to at home. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and well-being always come first. Your pet will be cared for in a quiet, calm home with minimal traffic, creating a peaceful environment where they can feel at ease. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets and homes, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your fur baby in someone else’s care. I will respect your dog’s routine, be attentive to their individual needs, and provide plenty of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“We’ve used Marta’s services twice. So far so good! Marta is very nice and my pup seems happy. She took the time to meet with me before his first daycare, which I think helped with a smooth transition.”
“Our pupper enjoyed his day stay and really got to stretch his legs in such a large yard. We received regular updates and felt at ease leaving him in such capable hands.”

I’ve worked in animal shelters and have been working at Beechnut Kennels for the past 3 years, caring for pets daily through feeding, exercise, playgroups, cleaning, and monitoring their health and behavior. I also foster cats and kittens and have experience with shy, fearful, reactive, and feral animals. I’m comfortable administering medications and using Fear Free handling techniques to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I truly love animals and treat every pet in my care like they’re my own! I currently work part-time at Beechnut Kennels, which gives me flexibility to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. I understand the importance of consistency and will always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With years of experience working in shelters and at Beechnut Kennels, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. I have experience using Fear Free handling techniques, administering oral medications, and caring for shy, fearful, and senior pets. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and instructions closely to help them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and pictures during every visit.
“Rachele was there when we most needed it! She makes it look easy, is super flexible and accommodating, and my sweet Wyatt came home happy and well exercised and excited to go back again and again. In a short period of time, Rachele became a reliable and comforting second home & caregiver for our pup. Thank you!!!”
“Alison is an amazing dog sitter. She sends me pictures throughout the day. She’s very quick and easy with communication. I fully trust her to love and take care of my fur baby”
“She was amazing with my little pup♥️I highly recommend her. Her and her husband were both very nice and welcoming people. They are so good with animals and would send me pictures of my little one as well? They took REALLY good care of my puppy ?♥️♥️♥️”
“Valerie helped us out last minute w day care day for our senior dog. He has boarded w her in the past and he was obviously comfortable when he returned today. He went up to her for head rubbies upon arrival. He normally barks and doesn’t like many people. Very satisfied w Valerie care. Have already rebooked an over night boarding stay for next week!”
About: My Experience I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years and have experience with cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. As the owner of two cats and one dog, I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and providing loving, reliable care. I’ve also cared for pets with disabilities and special needs. I’m currently a student, and pet sitting is a hobby I truly enjoy. I treat every pet like they’re my own. My classes are online so I work around your schedule. I can do weekdays and weekends, and overnight boarding. I only ask that you provide the instructions for care. When boarding at my home, I set up a special space to make all pets feel comfortable and safe. I have pets at home that are pet friendly.
“This was my first time using a dog sitter for my very anxious dog. Sabrina was warm and welcoming and sent regular updates and pics. My dog was there for a few hours and seemed to warm up just fine. Will definitely be using Sabrina’s services again!”
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for about five years and have raised my dog, Scooby, since he was a puppy. My husband and I worked closely on his training, socialization, manners, and recall and he has grown into a well-behaved dog who is comfortable around other dogs and can safely enjoy off-leash activities in appropriate settings. Because I have used Rover and dog daycare services for years, I understand what pet parents are really looking for: a sitter who communicates, follows instructions, provides updates, keeps dogs active, and treats every pet with patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic commands, different personalities, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. Scooby is friendly and enjoys being around other dogs, and our home includes two attentive adults who genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is safe, comfortable, supervised, and receiving plenty of attention while they are away. I am currently home full-time so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime and care throughout the day. I am flexible and happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. I live in a townhome with my husband and our friendly, well-trained dog, Scooby. While we do not have a fenced yard, our community has plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby. I can provide walks, playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation based on your dog’s individual needs and energy level.
“If I could give Lindsay 10 STARS I would!!! If you're traveling to the Annapolis area and don't know who to trust with your most precious asset - your pup (this was me!) - choose Lindsay! As you can see from all of Lindsays reviews, she is amazing with animals - its in her heart - but what makes Lindsay stands apart is her responsiveness, her communication, her ability to work with your schedule. She is so kind, and loving towards your dog, that you can enjoy your time away with peace in your heart. Thank you for everything Lindsay! <3”
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of animales guinea pigs, dogs, chickens, and cats so pet sitting isn’t something i’m not used to. I love animales and do anything in my power to make sure they are happy and healthy as possible. I am constantly taking care of all my pets and love being around animales. I feel like I get along better with animales than humans. I will always be interacting with your pets and making sure they are free from any danger.

About: I have over 3 years of professional pet care experience through my roles at PetSmart, where I cared for pets, monitored their health and behavior, maintained a safe and clean environment for all of the animals we cared for in store as well as the ones pet parent's would bring in. I am certified in Dog and Cat CPR and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have worked with energetic puppies, senior dogs, playful kittens, and shy or nervous pets who need extra patience and attention. During my time at PetSmart, I regularly cared for kittens in the adoption center and learned how important it is to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have also raised puppies of my own and helped care for pets belonging to family and friends. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention while you're away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, so I provide reliable care, plenty of updates, and open communication every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! ***I offer discounts, Ask me!*** Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With over 3 years of experience working at PetSmart, I’m familiar with a variety of pet personalities and behaviors. I carefully follow all care instructions, provide regular updates, and take the time to build trust with each pet. Whether caring for your pet in your home or during drop-in visits, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own cat, Luna.
“Mae is very reliable, punctual and takes great care of our dog Cannon on their daily walks. She is a great communicator and genuinely loves caring for our dog. I would highly recommend Mae for your dog walking/sitting needs.”
“Ashley was great! We were here in the area traveling in our RV visiting the DC area. We wanted someone to come walk and feed Rascal so we could spend a full day exploring downtown DC and the surrounding area. Ashley covered for us every day. Rascal is not used to spending long periods of time alone so Ashley was a blessing. She fed him and took him on a long walk every visit. We felt so good to know Rascal was being cared for by Ashley. She was also flexible with our schedule. We will call on her again if we return to the DC area which is very likely next year. Our daughter has a job offer in DC next year and we will likely visit and stay in this same area.”
“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”

“Jake is conscientious, kind and obviously loves dogs. His detailed reports and photos kept me informed and I think the dogs really enjoyed his company. He’s a busy guy and I appreciate that he could fit us in this week! Will request him again in the future.”
“Have had Jessica walk our dogs and also provide drop in visits while we were on vacation. She does a great job, lots of pics and our dogs love her. Would not hesitate to hire her again! Iggy and Obi love her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I had a golden growing up for 15 years and now have a dog of my own! I love going on long walks with dogs who need it, playing fetch, and giving lots of scritches and love! No dog is too small or too big for me. Happy to accommodate anything your pet needs! I’m currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I work in VA and living MD so I’m really all over the map. I would prefer any time after 3 but can also come in the mornings with enough heads up. I do not have a fenced in back yard but do have a nice trail to walk on and get some energy out. I also have a lead in the backyard to keep the dogs safe and not escape if they would like to roam freely. My coonhound has been just fine with the set up! I also have a crate if preferred. My dog is friendly with others and loves other dogs!
“Aleah is the BEST! She responded so quickly, she asked super thoughtful questions about how to provide the best car for my dogs, shes so sweet and was so helpful, and she took really great care of my dogs! Absolutely will be hiring her again in the future and I highly recommend her, she’ll take the best care of your pets :)”
About: Hi! I'm a college student home for the summer with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for dogs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment where your pet can feel at home while you're away! I have dog sat for family, friends, and even neighbors for a little over 4 years now! I’ve always wanted a pet myself but never had a chance to so I disperse my love and affection for all pets! I understand that every pet has different needs between playtime, walks, needing a specific schedule. I will make sure that whatever the need may be, I will follow it as closely as possible so that they can feel as comfortable as possible. I believe that communication is very important so I will always provide updates, pictures, and etc so that you can have peace of mind at all times! My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I currently work with the government on a schedule where I choose the days and times that I work! Shifts are not available everyday so in the free time that I have, I love to pet sit! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, supervised environment and make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. There are no other pets in my home and no children present! Pets can be crated if needed and they are not often left alone (if cannot be left alone at all then your pet will not be left alone!).
About: I have over 3 years of hands-on experience caring small rescue dogs. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medication if needed and providing plenty of love and attention. I work full-time from home on weekdays, so your dog will enjoy plenty of supervision, companionship, potty breaks and playtime throughout the day. I treat every dog as if they are part of my own family. My home is located on a quiet cul-de-sac, providing a peaceful environment with minimal traffic. I have a big, fully fenced backyard with locking gates and security cameras.
About: I was an owner of a 8yr old Cane Corso who has now passed away from bone cancer. She has had 2 litters whom I cared for. 7 puppies each litter for 8 weeks was such an amazing experience! We have 4 sons and she was always attached to our 3rd son’s hip. We also rescued a beautiful cat, Misaki, who is now 1 1/2. My youngest son begged us for her and she has claimed me. She is the most sweetest thing and loves to cuddle. She follows me everywhere which we should have named her Shadow. If I could bring all the animals into my home I truly would! Myself and my youngest boys ages 16 & 15 would love to care for your animals as we would our own! We now have Briahs grandson Deuce is now 1 1/2 and is huge and a ball of fun! I’m currently a homeschool mom for I’m very flexible. I work part time but I’m available at anytime. I will make sure your babies are well taken care of! I am available three times a day for services and anytime you need your babies needs met. If they need play time we can do that or even just a belly rub after dinner :)
About: My next door neighbor had me take care of their dog, Brownie. He was an old man, but still a good boy! I would make drop-in visits to make sure he was fed and given his medicine which he did such a good job with taking it around me, and I would also take him outside for bathroom breaks. Milo was another dog I took care of recently, and unlike Brownie, she was young, and also loud just like any other husky, but similar to Brownie, she was good girl. This time she had to live with me at my house, but she was no problem at all. I would take her outside at least two hours a day and give her walks around my neighborhood. I would also let her sleep on my bed and she'd wake me up by licking my face every morning to start the day. Feeding her wasn't a problem either. In fact, taking so much time out of my day to take care of just any other dog is never a problem for me! My recent pet care was for a Siberian Husky named Milo. After taking care of her cats, my sister asked me to take care of Milo for a friend who was away last December. Milo was a big dog, but she wasn't anything I had trouble handling. She was a fun and good girl, and I made sure she was taken outside every two hours of every day and also made sure she was given food and water and would refill both when I see that they're almost empty. Pet care comes first for me and I would take plenty of time out of my day to give pets the love and attention they need while family is away. I have a yard but it isn't fenced. However, I will be outside with your dog if they ever need to go, and keep an eye and/or leash on them if necessary. I did the same for my own dog, Macy. Unfortunately, my home doesn't have any other dogs that yours could socialize with since Macy passed away, but with me around, your baby should never feel alone! If I were to take care of your pet at your home (and if necessary), I could also tidy up the inside of your house to the point where I was never even there once you have come back from your trip.
“I couldn't ask for a better person to walk my pup Ollie. This was our first time trying out Rover so we didn't know what to expect and Erick gave us comfort the first day we've met him. 10/10, very patient and communicates quick when we have a question about anything relating to Ollie.”
About: I am a stay at home mom to 2 girls, ages 4 and 5 and we recently moved to the area! My husband is in the Navy. We live in a townhouse in North Beach, MD. I have a cat that can be timid with new animals, and tends to hide until he feels more comfortable. I would love to help out with your furry family members! I hate when I have to be away from mine so I would give them tons of love so they feel comfortable and at home while you are away. I am available for all needs except for pet sitting in your home, since I have kiddos that need me at my home. Please let me know if I can help you out in any way! Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you. I am with my girls a lot this summer but they would LOVE to accompany me on visits with your pet! I will have a lot more independent time this fall once they start school. We do not have a fenced in yard but I would be happy to do as many walks as needed for your pup!

About: I've taken care of pets my entire life, I currently have 3 senior cats and 1 senior dog. I have 2 years of experience working in pet care facilities so I'm more than capable of handling all types of dogs and cats, including reactive/possessive dogs. I've been trained in cleaning, playing, monitoring play groups, feeding, and giving medication to all different sizes, breeds, and reactivity of dogs. I believe every pet deserve love and patience and I enjoy providing them with that. I also worked specifically with reactive/aggressive dogs for a year so feel free to reach out if you're dog needs a little more effort than most. :) I don't currently have a set schedule so feel free to reach out and we can figure out what works best for myself and your pets. I can walk, play with, feed, let out to potty, clean up after, and give meds to your wonderful pets depending on your needs. :)

About: I'm a very energetic person so I will always play with the pets and I'm always making sure they are well looked after. I have taken care of plenty of pets aging from young puppies and kittens to older. When taking care of cats I have plenty of toys and things for them to climb on. I have also taken care of pets that have special needs. Like diabetics and other things. I know how to give medications oral and in shot form. Special skills would be probably that I can keep up with any animal and I love all of them. They put a smile on my face. And I love seeing owners with the same smiles. It warms my heart every day. ? I'm usually free most of the day and love cuddles and walking with the pups and kitties. So scheduling will be easy and always available. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat that love others. We can play and go for walks. Also tons of activities to do.

“Mady and her family were the best! My pup enjoyed walks, a large backyard to run around in, and the company of dog playmates. Mady consistently sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend Mady’s services, and will be rebooking with her again!”
“I HIGHLY recommend Donna. She was GREAT with Prince and very communicative and kept me updated with Prince by sending photos and videos. She even trained him a little and he now knows how to go into his crate by command. I absolutely will hire Donna again, if she’s available. Thanks so much Donna!”
“I believe our sweet girl had a great time … it was very comforting having to leave town knowing she was in such good care and in a loving environment! Receiving pictures made me feel at ease and seeing she was receiving so much love! Will definitely be back for more stays ♥️”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mary. My dog struggles with separation anxiety, so leaving her can be stressful, but she was in incredibly capable and compassionate hands. From the start, it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she boards and takes the time to understand their individual needs. She was patient, attentive, and proactive in making sure my dog felt comfortable and secure. I received updates that gave me peace of mind, and it was obvious my dog was being well cared for. When I picked her up, she was calm, happy, and clearly had been treated with kindness. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“What a delightful time Ginger had, with this lovely family. Carlie was attentive, flexible, and like a second home while I was away. I will definitely be returning.”
“Kiki is absolutely fabulous!! She is so patient with my challenging pup! She works with Bella and finds the right balance that keeps her safe and loved! Meds and all! Thanks Kiki🫶🏽.”
“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“Lindsay was just who we needed to care for our boy Migo! I can tell she cares very deeply about the animals entrusted to her, and Migo was no exception. Even as an anxious dog, his short vacation with them left him a l little bummed out to be leaving! For a caring and devoted animal lover to watch over your own, look no further! Lindsay truly is the best of the best and I am forever grateful for her. 💙”
“I am always hesitant to leave my dog with anyone, but Marta made me feel so comfortable and I knew Hibana would be in great hands! I knew from the moment we did a meet & greet before we officially did the booking. Helped me get to know her and her own two dogs and it was great! Hibana has the best 5 days there :) and I got pictures every day which made me feel better about leaving my dog lol. Hibana is an apartment dog so she was in love with Marta’s back yard. And since this is Marta’s full time job her attention was on the dogs all the time. Would 100% recommend. If I could give her 10 stars I would lol.”
“Aaron and Tia are hands down the best ever. They are super friendly loves dogs and I can’t even thank them enough how they have helped me in last minute dog sitting but just the care they show with my dog. Trust me if you are looking for a sitter that just loves animals Aaron and Tia are your people this is my second time and they are 10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You won't go wrong”
“Michelle was so amazing, and I can’t recommend her enough! She sent me a few sweet pics of my cat every day, along with a description of what he’d been up to. She went above and beyond playing with him and spending time with him, and I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”
“As tempting as it is to gatekeep Miss Kimberly..CAN’T DO IT SHE IS AMAZING! After my Rover sitter canceled on me last minute, I was scrambling to find a good quality sitter for Roman. Immediately I was welcomed with open arms by Miss Kimberly. She really made it feel like a family member was taking care of my dog. She is very attentive, kept me updated daily multiple times a day, and was very thorough with explaining to me every detail of what his experience will be while he stayed with her & safety precautions she takes. They have a beautiful yard and plenty of space in their home for my house hippo. Roman immediately bonded with her husband too, who was also very welcoming and kind. She has bumped up to my #1 Rover sitter ⭐️”

“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care.
