“What an amazing host family! Tanuja took all the appropriate steps to make me and spice feel welcome and comfortable with this being a first time host. We had a meet and greet so both dogs could get comfortable with each other and after that moved towards hosting. She kept me well informed and was very thorough with making sure she had everything to care for spice. I would definitely book again with her in the future and would recommend her to anyone who asked.”

“Danielle and her family were so great with my high energy, high anxiety border collie. She was super communicative in advance and was flexible with my crazy travel hours. When we got to their house to drop Callie off, she immediately took off into their huge, fenced in backyard, and I knew she’d have a great time there. Not only did Danielle and her family play with Callie, but even the neighborhood kiddos came to throw frisbees for her.

“First of all, I would like to thank them for taking in Wesky last minute! I was in a rush and I couldn’t leave my dog with a friend too long.

“Stephanie is the most thoughtful, greatest pet sitter I have ever worked with. Her ability to engage my fluff in playing, pets and her photographer skills are amazing! Thank you, thank you!”
“Bettina is excellent! I usually worry and stress a bit when we have to leave our pets for a long time, but I felt completely comfortable knowing our pets were in her care. Thank you for everything, Bettina!”
“Lisa went above and beyond with my two cats. Tux, the shy one, even came out while she was there! It made me feel better about leaving them knowing Lisa was taking care of them!”
“Jo is incredible, and I feel so lucky to have found her. She takes such thoughtful, loving care of Jake every single visit. She plays with him, gives him tons of affection, and always makes sure he gets outside time to explore. I love that she even updates me on the things he forages in the backyard — it shows how closely she pays attention to him. She keeps his water fresh, gives him his ice‑cube snacks, and sends the cutest photo updates. I feel at ease knowing he’s with her. Thank you, Jo!”
“Camille was very friendly, easy to communicate with, and caring about my two cats. She even watered my plants while I was away. I'd happily recommend Camille and book her again!”
“Kira did an awesome job and I felt very reassured that my cat was in good hands with her! She goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of :)”
“Mackenzie is great. Our cats love her and always seem chill and happy when we return from our trips. We have a cat with a chronic health condition and keeping him calm while we are gone goes a long way to keeping him healthy. Mackenzie was able to give him a supplement medication which speaks to her skills as a cat whisperer. She is so thorough and manages all the little details. She even called us to make an emergency plan for evacuating our cats during a wildfire. Thankfully we didn’t need to evacuate but she gave us peace of mind during a very scary situation. I will hire her for every future trip.”
About: I absolutely love cats! I have experience with lots of different cat breeds and would love to watch more of them! I understand that most cats are low maintenance but they desire affection and I can guarantee you that!
“Gabrielle is a 10/10! She is so easy to work with and did a great job with my two cats when I was away for a few days. I felt very comfortable leaving her with the cats and she did everything and more for them. Her communication is also very reliable and responded very quickly. Would highly recommend her!”
“Olivia is a very sweet person I was lucky enough to have take care of my precious cat Luna. She made sure she was well aware of her needs and went beyond her responsibilities by trying to just be a friend to Luna while I was away. I would recommend Olivia to anyone. 10 out of 10”
“Eden was very personable and confident, which I greatly appreciated because I have a diabetic cat. It’s very hard to find a sitter who can do subcutaneous shots and she was completely open to learning. In addition she offered to water my flowers and take out the garbage. I highly recommend her!”
“Samantha Was a sweetheart she was at my house at The Times she said she would be there and she looked for our little kitten but she finally came out on. The day before her last day and she actually stayed out but wouldn't let Samantha take a picture sometimes she does that to Me Too! She is a shy kitten but a sweetheart just like samantha. I would hire her again for sure she's worth it and she is on time when she says she's gonna be someplace she understands directiand a. Great assistant to anyone that will have her. I would hire her again and I think you should too.??”
About: I’m a responsible, patient, and attentive pet lover who treats every dog like family. I’m happy to stick to their normal routine, from walks and potty breaks to meals, playtime, and belly rubs. My goal is simple: to keep your pup happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I'm pretty flexible after work during the week and on weekends, I like going for walks, playing with dogs, and giving them plenty of attention. I'm pretty confident your pup and I will become fast friends! Your home is your pet’s happy place, so I’ll treat it with care and respect. I’ll follow your instructions, keep things clean and secure, and make sure your pup stays comfortable in their normal routine.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all ages and personalities. I have an 11-year-old maltese of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Growing up, I also helped care for family, friends’, and neighbors’ dogs, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, energy levels, and temperaments. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy or a drop-in visit for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, or just some extra company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s unique routine and needs. I know that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, so I’ll always provide updates and photos to help you feel connected and give you peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently on a career sabbatical, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’ve been spending my summer outdoors, walking local parks, exploring nature, and enjoying time fishing. Staying active and getting outside with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a drop-in visit while you’re at work, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big responsibility, and I don’t take that lightly. During every drop-in visit, I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, administering simple care instructions, or simply providing companionship while you’re away. I’ll treat both your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would my own. Communication is important to me, so you can expect timely updates, photos, and a summary of each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’m a retired teacher and lifelong animal lover with years of hands‑on cat care experience. I currently have three cats of my own and have cared for sick or injured neighborhood cats who needed temporary care in my home. I’ve also helped with trap‑and‑release programs and understand how to support shy, cautious, or special‑needs kitties. Your cat will receive gentle attention, playtime, and a calm, loving presence. I’m comfortable with oral medications, special routines, and providing a peaceful, reassuring environment. I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who started dog walking through Rover and quickly realized how much I enjoy spending time with pups and getting them out for a fun walk. I currently work full-time, so my schedule changes from week to week. Because of that, I’m not able to commit to a standing weekly walk every week. However, I do have availability for one-time walks and occasional or recurring walks when our schedules line up. If you’re looking for someone reliable who can help out here and there, I’d love to meet your pup! I have hands-on experience caring for French Bulldogs, Labradors, and Great Danes. I’m comfortable with different sizes, energy levels, exercise routines, and special care instructions. And a special note for Great Dane parents: I absolutely LOVE Great Danes! 🐾 I’d be especially excited to meet and walk your gentle giant. 😊 Whether your pup needs a good walk while you’re busy, some extra exercise, or simply a little attention and companionship, I’d be happy to help when my schedule allows. Feel free to reach out with the days/times you need, and we can see if we’re a good match! I work full-time, and my schedule changes week to week, so I can’t commit to regular weekly walks. I’m available for one-time dog walks and can coordinate times around my work hours — weekdays, evenings, or weekends, depending on the week. Safety is always my top priority, and I’ll treat your furry friend like my own. I will carefully follow all of your instructions for your pet.
“Jeannine did a terrific job, especially when it came to adapting to things I screwed up. The pups were in great spirits when I got home, and Jeannine was kind enough to share photos of how were visits with the pups went! Highly recommended!”

“Wonderful fun home for our pup! He has a great time! Highly recommend to others looking for a fun environment for their pup while they are out. We will definitely use them again when we are visiting the area”
“Iris & Tomas helped watch our dog while we attended a pet first aid/CPR class nearby. This was our first time having anyone watch her, so we were a little nervous. They were able to squeeze us in last minute and do a meet and greet. They sent us many photos and played with her and kept her occupied until we could pick her up. We would definitely request them again if needed!”
“Irv is a fantastic sitter! He had no issues with taking care of our two dogs, one of whom is a senior dog with some anxiety issues. She did so well with him that we’re definitely coming back! Our younger pup also had a great time and got lots of playtime and cuddles. Irv gave plenty of walks and sent us photos and videos throughout the day to update us. We had special food instructions and that wasn’t a problem. Thank you so much!”
“Sara and Milo saved Thor on a last minute sitter request. She communicated perfectly about the other two dogs staying and Thor enjoyed every moment of his stay. Her boyfriend also assisted at pickup. Another great experience.”
“Jennifer was awesome with our little senior papillon, Duncan! She was able to take on our last minute dog-sitting request and everything worked out fine. Duncan ended up sleeping most of the day as it was! Lol! There were other dogs there, but I felt that Duncan was safe and would be well-cared for in my absence. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“Carolina was wonderful! She is so kind. Carolina allowed Murphy and us to meet prior to our first sitting day...Murphy was able check out her house/sniff around, which made us feel more comfortable dropping him off! We were able to meet her family as well which put us completely at ease-such wonderful kids! On Murphy's first day with Carolina, she sent pics and updates of our fur-baby settling in and comfortable at her home!! When I picked him up at the end of his day, I could tell he was happy and well cared for. We will be bringing Murphy back!! We are so happy we found Carolina! She is truly lovely and so good to our 'baby'.”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and compassionate pet sitter with hands on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. During high school, I worked at an animal hospital where I learned about animal behavior, handling techniques, and the importance of providing attentive, individualized care. In addition to my experience, I’ve cared for many dogs and cats through pet sitting and understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a senior companion, or anything in between, I’m committed to treating them like family. Because I work from home, I have the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and regular updates throughout the day. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving loving, reliable care in a safe environment. I work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Because I’m home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and attention. I can also easily accommodate your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care based on their personality and routine. I take the time to get to know each pet so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure their needs are met. I follow all feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, keep litter boxes and living areas clean, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own.
“Cara was great! Responded quickly to my super last minute request to watch our 5 year old Vizsla. She was very friendly and kept us updated about our baby. We would recommend Cara and would book with her again. Thanks so much.”

“Magnolia was wiped out in the back seat before we got 10 minutes down the road! Exactly what she needs while mom and dad are at work. Brianna also sent pics and videos throughout the day, which was nice.”
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. I started raising dogs while I was still living with my parents decades ago, and looking back, I don't think there has ever been a time in my life when I didn't have a dog by my side. I've raised my dogs from about 8 weeks old through every stage of their lives. My current dog, Wrigley, is a Golden Retriever who is now over 9 years old. I recently retired, which gives me the time and flexibility to give your dog the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I'm not looking to simply keep busy — I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and spending time with them. Over the years, I've learned how to understand dogs, handle them confidently, and care for them with patience, caution, and respect. Whether it's going for a walk, playing, providing companionship, or simply making sure they're comfortable and safe, I enjoy the responsibility that comes with caring for someone's pet. When your dog is with me, my goal is simple: to treat them with the same patience, attention, and care that I would want for my own dog. My schedule is very flexible, and I'm available throughout the week, including weekends. I'm confident we can arrange a schedule that fits both your needs and mine. I provide pet care in the comfort of your pet's own home, along with walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. If it's a good fit for your pet's needs, we also have access to a secure, fenced dog park in our Troy community where they can safely exercise, socialize, and have fun.
“I can't recommend Ashley enough as a dog walker! She has been walking my golden retriever, Molly, regularly for a couple of months now, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Ashley is incredibly reliable and always shows up on time, which gives me peace of mind during my busy days. Not only is she friendly and approachable, but her genuine love for dogs truly shines through in her interactions with Molly. It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to make sure Molly is happy and well-cared for during their walks. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy and has a real passion for dogs, look no further than Ashley! She’s fantastic, and I’m so grateful to have her!”
About: I’ve helped out family friends and neighbors with their furry friends through home visits, overnight pet sitting, and helping with getting their energy out. I have been aiding those in my community since I was in high school and continue to do so when I am back in Troy. I am currently a college student, however I find joy in helping out others when I’m in town. I’m certified in Red Cross and StarGuard life guarding and am no stranger to safety! Although my certifications apply to humans, I can apply these skills to ensuring safety of your furry friends. I have worked with family members with their own pets as therapy animals and engaged in care and listed regiments for numerous dogs I’ve watched over. I am no stranger to dogs, having had 4 dogs within my home growing up and having my fair share taking care of them. I am great with following rules and specifications given to me, especially when it comes to caring for pets; they are family and deserve to be treated as such. I work outside and I am no stranger to the sun! I am more than willing to take a pup around the block or lay with them in the sun to give them some fresh air; even in rain we can walk together and towel off later. Rain doesn’t stop the zoomies! Although I do not have as much professional experience with pets as some others, I hope to be given a chance with my life filled with pets and genuine care and compassion for helping others with how busy life can get. Take your vacation, worry less about your furry friends having their needs met, call on me as someone eager and determined to help! I currently work a part-time seasonal job as a lifeguard at the local aquatic center. My schedule varies week to week, however I have days off and variance within the week that leaves me free within the morning/afternoon. On the days with long shifts, I am unable to leave work, however on other days I am available for whatever is needed! I am an early riser and tend to go to sleep later, therefore any early mornings for late nights will not be a problem for the care I can provide. It would be preferred to care for your pets within your own home, however I do not expect to stay the night or be cared for. I have a place of my own, although if needed, staying the night is not a problem. I am more than willing to travel to your home to meet your pet there to care for them. I do have a dog within my home, however he is a recent rescue and for your own pets safety as well as the utmost care being provided, bring them to my own home is not applicable. He is a friendly pup, however any potential negative interactions is something I would like to avoid to keep your pet safe. I will come to you, no problem at all!

“Maple is a very shy girl. She’s hesitant around new people (she’s a rescue) however, when she met Mackenzie for the first time she loved her and opened up so easily ! I was grateful they were a good match. Maple also gets scared easily with loud noises. Mackenzie is very patient with Maple when they go on their morning walks. There is construction around my house and people gets nervous and sometimes refuses to walk however Mackenzie is very patient with my Maple and I am very appreciative. She is amazing and I am so grateful I found her to walk Maple 🩷”

About: I’ve been caring for my 7 year old dog since she joined our family, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I also have lots of experience spending time with friends’ and family members’ dogs and cats, and I truly love being around animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles, and making sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I’m currently working full-time so right now my availability is only on Saturdays and Sundays. However there might be some days during the week here and there that work for me. I love spending time with my dog through cuddling, playing, and going on daily walks. Since we don’t have a fenced-in yard, I make sure she gets plenty of exercise and outdoor time by staying with her while she runs and plays or taking her for walks. I would give every pet I care for that same love, attention, and exercise while also following their normal routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy.
About: I am a high school teacher looking to spend the summer helping dogs. :) Education: I am a graduate of Michigan State University, with a major in English and a minor in Sociology. Experience: I have always owned a dog, and have been dog-sitting from a very young age. I am very experienced with dogs, and I walk with a few a couple times a week. I have not only become so proficient in pet care from my own experience, but via my aunt, who is an experienced and established veterinarian, who is only a phone call away. I have experience with all types of dogs--from young to old, and healthy to sick, and I am always happy to help. Interest: I love all dogs and would be happy to help care for any. I am super flexible and eager to help, whether it's house-sitting, walking, dropping in, or anything else you can think of! Currently, I am on summer break from teaching. I am available all day to provide any type of animal service -- walking, running, cuddling, etc. I can walk or run with dogs, take them to the park, go on car rides, etc. I am happy to do anything that helps maintain a dog's routine :)
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.
About: After caring others pets to my own, I realize that no two furbabies are the same. Some require more patience and attention, while others need their freedom and a guiding hand. I am here to offer all of that! I have always been a dog and cat person. Growing up, I had a sweet little guinea pig since we didn't have the room for something bigger. However, he was never just a pet, he was a part of my family. I always think about him when caring for other people's pets. Over the years, I have cared for cats, walked dogs, and even housed a few pets for a short time (although, one of my relatives is rather allergic so I cannot offer that service anymore). I cannot wait to connect with more animals! I am currently a student at Oakland Community College pursuing a career in computer science. Most of my Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday's are crammed with classes in the afternoon. However, I have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings. The rest of the days are free. Regardless of what animal you share your home with their everyday messes are inevitable. I like to keep them in a happy and clean environment at all times. Their physical and mental health is always my priority.
About: Willing to walk, play and pet your dog. Sloppy kisses are welcomed. Will treat your dog as if they were my own. Comfortable around animals. I am retired and interested in caring for pets in my free time. I enjoy being active and like to keep busy and feel pet sitting is a good fit. l will be accessible and compassionate to your pet. I understand how your animal is part of your family and will treat them as if they were my own
“Shareen does such a good job with our 2 Standard Golden doodles. One is a very EXCITED Puppy and she handles her so well. Besides walking our girls, she truly cares about our dogs. She goes beyond and above for them and us. You must give her a try, you definitely will not be sorry!!!”
About: I currently own an pit lab mix and her name is Stella and I have had her for a few years. She is the best especially around people and I love taking her to new places. I love being around dogs, any breed or size . I Love taking walks and enjoying the outdoors. I like to explore new areas and it’s always nice to have a friend while doing it. If you have a high energy dog I would love to play with them, but also dogs that just like to chill and cuddle I enjoy as well. I can walk your dog on weekends and during the evening during the week, mid day as well. I would love to become a dog walker or sitter to get to know more about other breeds and to get to know my area I do have another full time job, but I am willing to accommodate to your pets needs. We can discuss this further when booking. I am able to have decently flexible schedule. I will listen to the needs of the client. I will make sure that their pet is well loved and cared for while I am watching them.
“Bri was awesome! I was out of the country, but I had no problems with Bri. She would always communicate with me and if I had questions she would text right back. I would highly recommend her and I will be booking her again in the future.”

“We are really lucky to have found Angelina and her husband. They are excellent caregivers. The dogs are walled multiple times a day and they send pictures and communicate throughout the day. It’s always nice to see my dogs happy and loved while I’m away. Thank you!”
“This is my second time booking with Lindsay and she’s awesome! My dog always has such a good time with her. He usually doesn’t like crates but he loved Sasha (other dog) so much he wanted to be next to her in the crate lol She definitely made my dog feel right at home!!”
“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!”
“Joan of Bark stayed with Anna and it was great - sometimes Joan gets nervous and doesn’t eat or drink well, but Joan felt comfortable and was eating all her meals and drinking early in into her stay!! We got tons of pictures and updates which always helps. We would highly recommend Anna!”
“Arrow stayed with Miranda and Erica over his birthday and they went above and beyond to give him an amazing birthday!! they really are the sweetest and will treat your pet like their own”
“Irv was a dream! He took such good care of Amaka. I could tell through his updates and other actions that he truly liked watching Amaka. He’s also made me a better owner. Will definitely use him again!”
“Vinata and her family watched our two goofballs for a few days. They were extremely flexible and were able to flip-flop schedules when a bit of a family emergency came up. We appreciate knowing they are willing to help! And I’m pretty sure our dogs’ new BFF is their daughter!”
“Laura and Joe took care of our two older dogs for a week while we drove a couple of hours to have a vacation. We knew from our visit with them that Laura would be caring and attentive, but she really did go above and beyond! We received multiple updates and photos and videos daily. Even more impressive was how well Laura handled a behavioral problem that arose with one of our dogs. I had forgotten that he once had this problem with us -six years ago when we got him - and when it popped up again, Laura dealt with it so well! She even purchased something that we thought would help, after messaging with me about the issue. Laura’s care and confidence saved our vacation, when a less experienced sitter might have asked us to return and pick up our dog. The problem resolved and our dogs had a wonderful stay with Laura and Joe. We have always used a kennel in the past. It is a small one and the dogs are out playing much of the day. Last time, things did not go well there for our 13 year-old dog. We tried Rover to find someone who would provide both a safe setting and special care for our dogs. We got this with Laura, for sure!”
“Christina did a excellent job with Maggie! This was my first time boarding her so I was a little anxious to see how it would go. But Maggie was able to run in her fenced big backyard and play with her dogs so it went perfectly. I will definitely use her again!”
“This was our second time using Kate for dog sitting and everything was great. She provides pick up and drop off services too which is so helpful and appreciated. Definitely look forward to booking again in the future.”
“Kayla was so amazing with our cat! she communicates very quickly and sends lots of updates :) I felt so at ease and safe leaving our little kitty with her ❤️ Will def be rebooking in the future !!!!”
“Catherine was very good to Mojo! It’s always a little nerve wracking to leave your pup at a new place for the first time, but Catherine made my dog feel right at home. I would definitely use her again for dog sitting.”
“First of all, I would like to thank them for taking in Wesky last minute! I was in a rush and I couldn’t leave my dog with a friend too long. Second, thank you for taking good care of him for the whole stay and keeping me updated all the time with videos and photos. That was so nice of you😊. For sure coming back for more stays.”
“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!!!”
“Anirudh did a wonderful job taking care of our Luna! He was very caring, responsible, and attentive to her needs. We felt completely comfortable knowing Luna was in good hands while we were away. He kept us updated and treated Luna with so much love and care. We truly appreciate everything he did and would definitely recommend Anirudh to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. We would happily have him take care of Luna again! 🐾❤️”
“Juhan was great and openly available for a meetup as well as getting drop off scheduled at a convenient time for us. He is well educated with dogs and has a great personality. I'd recommend others to use him without a question.”
