“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“We would definitely recommend Steven for his pet sitting services. He watched our two kittens for a week that needed a little extra care. He sent pictures and videos frequently so we wouldn’t miss the babies too much. Steven has a lot of knowledge and experience with animals and we would absolutely book with him again. Thank you!”
“Meredith was the best pet sitter I could have asked for. She was so sweet with my dogs and kept me updated with lots of videos and photos. You can tell how much she loves animals and it felt like she treated my pups as her own. Will absolutely be using her in the future!!”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Our dog had a great time at Queeny’s house. She periodically sent us pictures and responded promptly. Our dog enjoyed playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Veronica did a wonderful job taking care of my dog-Rosie! Our meet and greet was friendly, welcoming, and personable. Veronica is very knowledgeable with dogs and asked all the right questions. She definitely made sure that I was comfortable with her care before I dropped off my fur baby! Her communication was outstanding as well. Everyday I was given updates with photos and videos along with Rosie’s daily progress. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. I will be rebooking Veronica when I need someone in the future. Thank you again!”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“Maritza & Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our Border Collie, Kaylee, while we were out of town for a few days. The updates and pictures they sent kept us informed as to how Kaylee was settling in and showed how happy she was to become a regular part of their day!”
“Kadi was soo sweet and accommodating! Definitely recommend her if anyone is looking for a good and loving pet sitter! I will ask her to watch my dog Millie again in the future!! 😍😇🥰”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Leaving my dog for a week while I was on vacation was a little nerve-wracking, but Cody immediately put me at ease. From our first interaction, it was clear that he is very experienced with dogs and genuinely enjoys caring for them. I have a high-energy Border Collie/Aussie mix, and he handled him wonderfully. He got plenty of attention, exercise, and care, and I could tell he was comfortable and happy during his stay. I also really appreciated was the regular updates and photos he sent throughout the week. It was so reassuring to see how he was doing and know he was in good hands. I would absolutely trust him with my dog again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter.”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”
About: Hello! My pet experience consists of having my own doggy for the past 20 years. I rescued my older dog and then got a new puppy. My old Rose passed away but I had to give her eye medication and oral medication everyday so I am comfortable with that. I also grew up with family dogs and cared for those dogs. My availability to watch your dog is very flexible. I work from home a most days a week so it is a high chance that I could work from home while caring for your pup. I am a very caring person. I have a PhD in human development and family science and work in the social work field. I have a giant heart and would love to care for your doggie! As a stay-at-home worker, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, regular potty breaks, and plenty of play and cuddle time. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate pets’ needs, whether that’s sticking to a specific routine or being available for spontaneous walks and care. Being home also helps me monitor behavior closely and respond quickly to any changes, making pets feel secure, loved, and well looked after. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In my home, pets have access to cozy rest areas, regular outdoor time, and plenty of affection and play throughout the day. I maintain a calm, clean space and follow any routines or special instructions provided. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick closely to the pet’s established schedule to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, ensure fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, and give each pet the love and attention they’re used to.
“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“All I can say is Rahied is AMAZING!! My 18yr old blind and deaf baby Coco and are beyond blessed to have found him🙏🏾 He was so attentive, sent updates with pictures daily! Caring for a senior dog is very challenging and exhausting but Rahied made this stay so pleasant for my baby. Feed her by hand, let her drink from her bowl by hand, held her when she cried, administered her medication and so much more😫 I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with him, my spirit told me HE was the one & my spirit does NOT LIE! Forever grateful🤞🏾 If you desire compassion, attentive & extra love while being in the care of a sitter, please don't hesitate to book Rahied Hi🫶🏾 If my baby live another season, Rahied is our choice! Thank you again❤️”
“Thank you Angela! She took wonderful care of our dog, Budd. Helped manage his anxiety during thunderstorms, kept us up to date on how he was adjusting, and send sweet photos!”
“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”
“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”

“katie was great - i felt confident leaving my cat for a weekend knowing that she'd be checking in on him. she was responsible and had great communication, and my cat was friendly with her right away. most importantly, i came home to a content kitty after a weekend out of town. everything was a breeze and i'd highly recommend her!”
“Shannon had incredible communication and put my mind and heart at ease that my 2 cats were in excellent hands. They both clearly received the attention they love, per evidence in the pictures Shannon provided. She also had to clean up a hairball and take out a full litter robot bag to our outside trash. I'm very grateful and thankful for her above and beyond care. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her! Thank you, Shannon!”
“Jay was very easy to schedule with. He genuinely listened to my insane list of things for my cat, spent time playing with him, and made sure any accidents were cleaned up. As someone who has a cat with medical issues, I truly felt like my worries were attended to. I'm sure Blanket had a good time too!”
“My cat Pinto warmed up to Kayla immediately! She was so sweet, thoughtful and flexible when my plans changed last minute. Great communication and updates, impeccable care. I could tell Pinto was not just looked after but loved. Would definitely book Kayla again. Thank you so much!”
“Suzanne did a wonderful job with our fur babies. Our girl cat can be cranky or a sweetheart and Suzanne knew how to bring the sweetheart out of her. She sent delightful photos of Peanut rubbing all up and down her leg in greeting and running around the house excitedly playing or having zoomies. We knew our cat was in good hands with her from the very beginning - just a vibe - but she proved to be responsible, attentive, and definitely went the extra mile to make sure we knew Peanut was being loved, food and maintenance was being taken care of, and that our other pets were also safe.”
“Tara is a great cat sitter! She was very patient with and loving toward my standoffish cat, very prepared for everything required for catsitting, and willing to go above and beyond when I needed it while I was away. I would definitely recommend her as a catsitter and am looking forward to working with her again in the future!”
“Phoenix has watched our pets for multiple sits and we are always satisfied with her care and professionalism. She goes above and beyond and you can relax knowing your animals are in good hands”
About: I have grown up loving and caring for dogs of my own as well as others. I have always been the person people always call when they have some kind of animal emergency. I absolutely love animals and know a lot about taking care of them and many different types. They will get lots of attention and quality care from me. I will spoil your baby as much as you will let me! I can administer any medication necessary. My dog takes pain meds twice a day so we are already on a medication routine. I have a flexible schedule so I can meet most needs. I keep in contact with you asap if there are any changes that are needed I live in a charming small house in the corner of Ferndale and a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. I have a fully fenced in backyard that is about 97% privacy fence. There’s one little corner where my dog can talk to the dog in back through a chain-link fence. Lots of shade and grass
“Kennie made it so easy to be away from my sweet Nellie! They were thoughtful, attentive, and communicative. Kennie sent me fantastic updates with details I wouldn’t think to ask for (on her pupils, breathing, ears, tail, etc) which showed how much attention they were paying to my sweet girl. Even for a few night stay, Nellie was so relaxed I got some really great photos and videos of her being playful. Would highly recommend Kennie and will absolutely book with them again!”
“Ally kept my kitties happy and safe for a whole week during the holidays! She sends great report cards, tons of photos, and I can tell my kitties are so happy to spend time with her. Definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve done home check-in with many friends and clients. I make sure every cat gets pets and playtime before I leave. I’ve home boarded for a 4 month kitty for 12 days. I adore cats! I continue to volunteer at nearby cat shelters whenever I can. I’ve learned a lot through these shelters so I understand socialization, special needs, calming down spooked cats and nighttime zoomies.
“Nicole stayed at our house with our cats for a week and did a great job following the instructions. My cats have quite the extension routine and needs and she took all the request in with no judgement. One of my cats requires oral medication every day and she took care of that as well. I was able to feel comfortable knowing that my cats were in great hands. She sent me little updates every day as well, communication was solid. When we got home, she left the house extremely clean for us, which was a nice bonus. Highly recommend!”
“Rachel is the greatest! She's done drop-ins for our pups on two separate occasions and always goes above and beyond. She's always on schedule, shows such deep care for our dogs and home, is exceptionally communicative, and is so fantastic to work with all around. You may not be able to find a better dog helper in the world!”
About: I have been caring for both cats and dogs my entire life, personally and professionally. This includes disabled + senior care! I do my best to match the energy & demeanor of each animal; if they are extra active & playful, I’m prepared to keep up! If they are more timid & anxious, I’m very gentle, patient, & soft spoken. I love animals a lot & I’m a natural when it comes to meeting their needs. I have an office job 3 days a week as well as a 4-year old but my time is shared and very flexible. I’m free by 4pm every single day and weekends are open. I have a 4 bedroom house with 2 cats & some gates so I generally keep them separated. My backyard is fenced in as well
About: Confession: I wasn't always a cat person. Then I realized... I'm basically a cat in human form. I appreciate quiet company, respect personal space, and know that trust is earned—not demanded. Once I started speaking "cat," everything changed. These days, I specialize in winning over the shy ones. Whether your kitty ends up snuggled in my lap or simply decides I'm worthy of a greeting, I'm happy to let them set the pace.

“My Rex knew immediately that we were off to see Kristen this morning and that gladdened my heart. I won’t leave Rex with anyone else but Kristen! Many thanks to her. I’m certain today was rather epic for Rex. See you again!”
“Rachel is amazing. She took great care of my Hobey who is a goldendoodle. I knew upon meeting her that she took this would be a great experience for Hobey. She provided videos throughout the day that showed Hobey playing with other dogs, doing tasks that would merit him a treat, and relaxing after some playtime in the backyard. It was nice to see the vids and to see him have a good time. I took him there 3 days in a row and each time he would get excited as we pulled up to her house which made me feel good. I could tell he had an active day when I picked him up cause we would get home and I would feed him and he would sleep for the rest of the night. I was only in Michigan for a week but I will be back to visit family and I will always use Rachel.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Even though we were her very first client, she treated our pup like absolute family from the second we walked in.

“Gary is the best!! He's so amazing with my pups! They love him and really enjoy their walks with him. And, he really helped me out when I found myself in need of a walker on short notice. Can't say enough how thankful I am for him & Rover.com!!”
About: I have always been the first to offer to cat or dog sit for my friends. My own cat needs daily oral medication, so I understand the importance of timely medication. I can't wait to meet you and your pets. I am currently attending online school, so I will have a lot of availability to care for your pets! I'm new to the area, and excited to get myself out there. I'm attentive to animal body language, and know some animal first-aid. In case of an emergency, I'm also capable of lifting up to about 80 pounds.
“Mary is great with my pitty!! She always did what I needed done and found the time to squeeze him in even in busy days! She does have a bad ankle so due to that we had to switch over so if u have a bigger stronger dog who pulls or is reactive, may be best to find someone else. But otherwise she did the job and walked him even with that ankle :)! She helped us find other options as well and always had tips to help when issues were brought up. She seems to really care about the animals and what they need.”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life. I would walk my dogs daily, to explore and go to the bathroom. I would also groom them myself. I am also familiar with cats too.

I run a rescue program with my friend and community members, and am very skilled with medical monitoring and behavior reading. I have experience working with special needs and elderly animals. I've administered oral medication and eye drops, changed doggy diapers, and bottle fed babies. I also have experience working with aggressive and territorial animals, I maintain a gentle and patient energy and work hard to create a secure relationship with each pet. I don't mind cleaning, I love super active animals, and I'm confident and reliable in caretaking. I work independently as an artist and curator, so I make my own schedule, so I always have plenty of time for your fur baby.

About: Hi there! I’m Rhiannon — a lifelong animal lover and former professional dog groomer of 5 years. I’ve spent years caring for pups of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s hands. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or keeping up with your dog’s routine, I treat every pet like my own. Reliable, calm, and attentive — your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I currently work part-time remotely, which gives me the perfect balance to dedicate plenty of focused time to pet care.

Whether it’s morning, mid-day, or evening visits, I’m able to adjust my hours to fit your pet’s needs and routine. When I care for pets in their own home, my top priority is keeping them comfortable, safe, and stress-free in their familiar space. I follow your routine closely — feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions — so your pet feels secure and cared for just like you’re there. I always treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine: tidy, mindful, and trustworthy. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. With 5 years of experience as a professional dog groomer, I’m confident reading animal behavior and providing calm, reliable care no matter the breed or personality.
“We are so glad we found Jennifer to walk our dog! She takes great care of him, sends us sweet photos and updates, and has been patient and flexible when we have have had schedule changes. I can tell my dog really enjoys his time with her. We highly recommend her!”
About: Since I was in my teens I have lived a life with pets - both dogs and cats, and it has been such a rewarding journey so far! I have had two rescue dogs, a collie mix and a beagle, and they had my whole heart. I currently have a multi-cat household, and do TNR in my neighborhood where I can to help the outdoor stray cats. I have also rehomed multiple cats with the help of local rescue groups to ensure a long happy kitty life. Currently, I spend a great deal of time with my best buddy Rocco, an 8 year old black lab. I have experience with small dogs, medium sized dogs and large dogs and honestly enjoy them all the same! I also have experience with cats of all ages, from bottle feeding kittens to 18 year old seniors, and am comfortable giving any medications to dogs or cats as well. I know my way around all kinds of personalities and ages, whether it be those that want to play or those that need a slow, gentle walk and some extra attention. I have also been working with the same vet for 20+ years that can attest to my care and love for animals. I will treat every pet like my own - patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Being around animals - that's my happy place. My hours at work have changed which allows me to be available Monday-Friday 11am-3pm. I'm available for walks, drops ins for potty breaks while you're at work, or to check on your kitties if you'll be gone longer than you'd like to be. Lots of time for playing with your furry family members! I would be happy to come to your home and treat it and your pets with respect and care. My personal cats are all fixed and up to date on shots, however I took in a stray girl last winter who is very scared of everything. I think it's best to let her rule the house and come to visit yours at your homes where they are most comfortable.
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, but somewhere along the way I also became a bit of an animal nerd. I genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality and figuring out what makes them feel safe, happy, and understood. I share my home with a dog and a cat of my own, so caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's part of my everyday life. I've worked with playful puppies, wise senior dogs, energetic adventurers, anxious pets, and those wonderfully quirky little personalities that come with their own instruction manual. Every one of them has taught me something. As the proud human of a very particular senior dog, I've become especially tuned in to the little details that make a big difference. Most pets thrive on routine, familiarity, and feeling secure, so my goal is always to make your time away feel as normal as possible for them. Whether that means sticking to a detailed medication schedule, serving dinner in exactly the right bowl, or taking the "long way" because that's their favorite route, I'm all in. I'm dependable, respectful of your home, flexible with scheduling (including evenings), and quick to adapt to each pet's individual needs. My partner is always home with our own furry family when I'm caring for yours, so when I'm with your pet, they have my full attention. You'll often find me exploring Belle Isle with adventurous pups, playing endless games of fetch, hiking local trails, or—if your best friend prefers a slower pace—curled up on the couch giving championship-level snuggles. At the end of the day, I don't just want to care for your pets—I want them to be excited to see me walk through the door. And I want you to head home knowing they were loved just as much as they were looked after. Right now I'm a student, which means my schedule is wonderfully flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your besties. Mondays and Wednesdays are my busiest days, so my availability is a little more limited then, but if you're looking for a regular walker, don't hesitate to reach out. There's still room to make something work! When your pet stays with me, they're treated like family. I have a fenced-in yard for zoomies, a spacious home full of cozy napping spots, and someone is almost always around for belly rubs, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Whether your dog is an athlete or a professional couch potato, they'll feel right at home. When I come to you, I like to think of myself as your pet's temporary personal assistant. Every visit is tailored to their personality and routine. High-energy pups can expect games of fetch, tug-of-war, long sniffy walks, or even a trip to the beach if that's their thing. More of an introvert? I'm perfectly happy to curl up with a book while your furry roommate supervises from the couch—or eventually decides my lap is acceptable. I'm comfortable administering medication, handling potty breaks, sticking to feeding routines, and navigating everything from enthusiastic eaters to tiny food critics. No judgment here—I know some pets have very strong opinions.
“Valerie has been a fantastic dog walker for my pug, Steve. Communication has been super easy, she always leaves great notes (feedback and pictures) and brings lots of positive energy. Steve has been a very happy boy to have another friend to play with. Very highly recommended!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have grown up around a large variety. I’ve pet sat and dog walked for friends and neighbors over the years off and on. I currently I have very open availability this summer. I will update that as my schedule changes. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I’m very attentive to pets in my home and make sure that they are in safe environments with everything they need.

About: I have been pet sitting on and off since high school! When your pets are here, they will be at home. I have a fenced in backyard for your dog to enjoy. I am currently off of work so I can focus on my education. While your pet is here they will have round the clock care from my husband and I. I have a fenced in backyard, and a modest home in Hazel Park with the ability to walk your dog in my neighborhood. Please let me know how I can best care for your pet.
About: I have been caring for both cats and dogs my entire life, personally and professionally. This includes disabled + senior care! I do my best to match the energy & demeanor of each animal; if they are extra active & playful, I’m prepared to keep up! If they are more timid & anxious, I’m very gentle, patient, & soft spoken. I love animals a lot & I’m a natural when it comes to meeting their needs. I have an office job 3 days a week as well as a 4-year old but my time is shared and very flexible. I’m free by 4pm every single day and weekends are open. I have a 4 bedroom house with 2 cats & some gates so I generally keep them separated. My backyard is fenced in as well

About: I’ve been surrounded by and taking care of dogs since I was young. I have experience with all ages, giving medications and with handling reactive dogs. I am currently working full time (4-5 days) as a server/bartender. My shifts are short(4-5hrs) and usually in the late morning or early evening so I always have part of my day to dedicate to your pet. I do not offer boarding services but I am more than happy to visit your pet and make sure they are comfortable, fed and walked if needed. I enjoy interacting with animals and assessing their body language to meet their needs.

“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“We would definitely recommend Steven for his pet sitting services. He watched our two kittens for a week that needed a little extra care. He sent pictures and videos frequently so we wouldn’t miss the babies too much. Steven has a lot of knowledge and experience with animals and we would absolutely book with him again. Thank you!”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Our dog had a great time at Queeny’s house. She periodically sent us pictures and responded promptly. Our dog enjoyed playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Leaving my dog for a week while I was on vacation was a little nerve-wracking, but Cody immediately put me at ease. From our first interaction, it was clear that he is very experienced with dogs and genuinely enjoys caring for them. I have a high-energy Border Collie/Aussie mix, and he handled him wonderfully. He got plenty of attention, exercise, and care, and I could tell he was comfortable and happy during his stay. I also really appreciated was the regular updates and photos he sent throughout the week. It was so reassuring to see how he was doing and know he was in good hands. I would absolutely trust him with my dog again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter.”
“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”
“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“All I can say is Rahied is AMAZING!! My 18yr old blind and deaf baby Coco and are beyond blessed to have found him🙏🏾 He was so attentive, sent updates with pictures daily! Caring for a senior dog is very challenging and exhausting but Rahied made this stay so pleasant for my baby. Feed her by hand, let her drink from her bowl by hand, held her when she cried, administered her medication and so much more😫 I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with him, my spirit told me HE was the one & my spirit does NOT LIE! Forever grateful🤞🏾 If you desire compassion, attentive & extra love while being in the care of a sitter, please don't hesitate to book Rahied Hi🫶🏾 If my baby live another season, Rahied is our choice! Thank you again❤️”

“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”
“my dog had a short weekend at their house and they were great with updates! she had some separation anxiety and made sure she felt comfortable throughout the night ❤️”
“Rachel is the best! Our doodle had a wonderful time with Rachel while we were away. We really appreciated the time Rachel spent and the thoughtful care she showed our doodle. Rachel sent many videos throughout the day and challenged our pup with puzzles and other activities. We had no doubts that she was safe and well looked after. We will definitely rebook!”
“Eriann did such a nice job watching Ruby! She took her dog George and Ruby to the dog park and send us photos and a video of Ruby playing and having a great time! Ruby can't wait for the next time she gets to go and hang out with Eriann and George! Thanks Eriann for doing such a great job and for just being you!”
“Mariana was amazing!! Super communicative from meet-and-greet planning all the way through the end of the stay. Her and her husband made our dog feel right at home and provided consistent photos and updates. Our guy can be a bit of a challenge because of his dog/skateboarder/biker reactivity, but Mariana made us feel totally at ease and comfortable. We could tell he had a great weekend and even gave Mariana goodbye kisses when we came to pick him up--this is a first for him! Highly highly recommend--we will definitely be contacting Mariana again.”
“We had the best experience possible boarding our rescue dog Maisie with Sam. She gave her so much love and attention! She also carefully followed all our instructions about medications, feeding, and behavioral issues. We received daily updates and cute photos. Sam is so knowledgeable about canine behavior and even did some training with Maisie. We felt so confident that our dog was in excellent hands and could enjoy our trip without any worries.”
“Whitney and Samuel took excellent care of Kodi! He was so happy with them. They sent pictures and gave updates. I will definitely book with them again!”
