“Howie and Betsy, thank you so much for sharing your home with Bailey during my travels! This is the first time I’ve been away from him for an extended time, but I felt comfortable knowing that he would be cared for by someone who really enjoys dogs. I hope Bailey can be part of your family again now that travel is again possible!”
“Jana was very kind to send pics and updates (admittedly, I’m sure I bugged her more) 😂. I look forward to using her again and so does Zoe (she said she hopes her “friend” is there at the same time too!)”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with our dog, Roxie! She was very upfront in warning us that her dog, Elliot, can come on a little strong at first (which he definitely did lol) but he and Roxie became best friends almost immediately after. Emily sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel so comfortable knowing Roxie was happy and having fun. It was obvious from every update how much Roxie loved her. We would absolutely trust Emily with Roxie again and highly recommend her!”
“Snowball enjoys his stays with Auntie Sue and always comes home a happy boy!!! She provides excellent daily updates and photos, which are very much appreciated especially during extended stays. She responds quickly and we never worry when our boy stays with Susan!”
“Nickolai was a great dog sitter for our very high energy puppy, Woody. we had an initial meet and greet with their dog, Ryder, and they got along great. Nickolai is super chill and gave lots of pictures throughout the stay which was greatly appreciated. very responsive via text and i had absolutely no worries. we had to put woody on a special diet because of his tummy issues and Nickolai was more than happy to provide that extra care for us.”
“Our 5-year old Golden had the best time with Kimberly, John, their kids, and their Golden - the entire family gave Sunny so much love. We received daily updates/pictures to show the fun she was having - walks, fetch, tug, cuddles, outside time, etc. This was the first time that Sunny stayed with them, but won’t be the last. Having a family who treats your dog like their own is priceless. She can’t wait to go back!”
“Abigail was very helpful in planning our pets care. We met ahead of time in her home so our dog could meet her first. Her energy was very calm and I felt confident in her abilities right away. She sent photos every day of our very happy dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone. We would definitely trust her again with our highly sensitive and anxious pitbull.”
“Wesley was fantastic with our dog while for four nights of boarding. He was exceptionally good at communicating, sending updaters with photos, and making us feel at ease even though we hadn’t worked with Wesley before. It was so lovely to pick our pup up from Wesley where he was smiling and clearly well cared for! We will definitely ask Wesley to help again in the future.”
“Cassandra and Eric were great with our older dog! They sent us pictures every day and told us about how was doing each day! Kona loved their fenced in back yard and being able to soak up the sun on their deck and keep an eye on things. I will definitely try to use them again in the future!”
“Winnie always has the best time with Kiirsten! Winnie cries with excitement when we get close enough to Kiirsten’s house for her to know where we’re going. Kiirsten is wonderful to work with and can’t wait to use her again!”
“Hyeyoon was wonderful! She followed our dog’s daily routine to a tee and asked such thoughtful questions. We received pictures and updates each day. We will definitely use her again!”
“Daniela watched my 4 month old puppy and I couldn’t be happier! She was extremely responsive when we reached out to her and continued communication with us the whole time! I got updates throughout everyday with pictures and messages on how my pup was doing! Even sent us home with some more treats and a bone! Will definitely be coming back to her!”
“Marina took good care of our pets and we could tell that she is definitely a dog person. We saw that both dogs were enjoying their cuddles in the picture we received. We are rarely separated from them, so it was nice to have no worries. Marina’s home is lovely and well equipped with pet toys and a feeding station. We noticed the surrounding grounds were nice for walking the dogs. We will rebook should the need arise.”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“We were very happy with Mochi's stay at Alicia and Simon's. They sent us pictures and videos and communicated with us the entire time we were gone. Mochi was so sad to leave their house and must have had fun because he has pretty much been sleeping since he got back!”

“Pat was flexible with some unforeseen changes and willing to help out if she could. Good communication, even crawled next to the bed where one of my cats was hiding to give her some love. My other cat wasn't as shy and Pat gave her lots of love and belly rubs.”
“Heidi took great care of our 3 cats while we were away. They had a couple accidents while we were gone and all was well when we arrived home. Would recommend her for care of your pets and will book her again if she is available.”
“Sara was super easy to communicate with and provided excellent care for our two cats over a long vacation, one of whom required special medication. We would happily book with Sara again!”
“Kate was awesome! We loved getting the daily updates and pictures of our two cats! It put our minds at ease to see how comfortable they were playing with Kate while we were out of town!”
“Sheila was very good at communicating with an update and pictures of my cats. She also took time to entice them to play with their favorite toy! She did a great job spending time with them!”
“The nicest sitter yet! Not just very friendly but VERY caring and wanting to make sure no detail gets missed (meds, health, etc). The day I came home (Elizabeth was house sitting) my cat even followed her to the door. That’s such a good sign ❤️ Thank you again!”
“Ana helped us over Christmas and we couldn’t be more grateful. She was absolutely lovely to work with and was so kind to our cat. Took care of everything and we will hope to see her again soon!”
“Emma responded so fast to our last minute request and was able to do a meet and greet that morning with all our animals. While we’re were gone and Emma was checking in they gave fantastic updates on how our cat was doing and sent lots of pictures. Emma even stayed much longer than the visit required. Giving lots of love to our old kitty. Best last minute decision ever to go with Emma. We would trust any of our pets with Emma again.”
“Rola did a wonderful job checking in and caring for our cats while we were away. It didn’t take long for our cats to warm up to Rola and start showing their personalities. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie was great! I can tell my pet was well cared for and I also came home to a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than when I left it. I will happily use her again!”
“Ed always delivers more than expected! Always reliable, kind, generous, thoughtful. He is great with communication and a kind soul. You won’t go wrong having him take care of your pets!”
About: Hi! I’m McKenzie, and I’ve always been a huge dog lover! I have lots of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them! I have been around dogs my whole life and have been a doggie sitter for friends/family for 5 years! Whether that means going on walks, playing, cuddling on the couch, or simply keeping them company. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pup and give them all the love, attention, and care they deserve! I have a full time corporate job from 7:45-4:15 Monday-Friday, my available hours would need to fit around that! I also have various weekends open if planned ahead! I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow whatever makes your pup feel most comfortable and at home. I’m responsible, attentive, and will treat your dog like they’re my own. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands, and I’ll make sure to keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

“Kyle is awesome. I couldn't have asked for a better dog-sitter for Pilar! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt totally at ease knowing she was in great hands with Kyle and his pup Soka. Kyle was attentive and caring, sending updates throughout the day that showed Pilar was having a wonderful time. It was clear that Kyle genuinely loves animals. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her—I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet-sitter!”
“Coco spent her first day with Sonja, Adam & their pups. I felt completely comfortable leaving her with them. They are personable, warm, & kind. They are clearly, comfortable & knowledgeable about dogs. Coco made herself at home within the first five minutes she was in their home, and had not a care when I left. She clearly had a blast playing with everyone. The pictures tell a story of a happy, relaxed dog who had a boat load of fun, & went home tired. Thank you Sonja & Adam.”
“Howie is very kind and took excellent care of my little man. Nigel seemed so comfortable and happy there. He gave great updates, and was very thorough with the plan of care when Nigel stays. Nigel will be staying with him every Wednesday!”
“Dixie came home a happy dog. Nicole (with her dog Stella) gave our 1 year old puppy a safe and fun place to play and a comfortable place to rest. We couldn’t ask for more.”
“I highly recommend Kristen and Robert to care for your beloved pet. I felt very comfortable leaving my Roy with them and their family of 3 other doggies. I felt they were very kind, friendly and caring. They sent me pictures and let me know how Roy was getting along. I will definitely contact Kristen and Robert again when I am need of someone to watch my precious little Roy. Thank you !”
“Sandy was able to petsit our dog Kori on short notice & I am very thankful that she was available. Kori was well-cared for and able to play with her dogs as well, overall a fun experience for him. Thank you!”
About: I've been caring for others pets since I was 10yo. Prissy & Ginger (a Boston Terrier & a Pug) were my first loves as I would walk my neighbors dogs for companionship when I could not have my own. As an adult, I still pet-sit for friends and family, most frequently a 5yo Tamaskan when his owner travels. I was a part-time vet-tech in college and work in a (human) clinic as an adult, so I understand special needs, different medications, and the roll of compassion for all conditions. I work out of the home all week, so can accomodate unique schedule needs. My home has 3 areas that a pet can be isolated from others, if needed. I also have a large (unfenced) yard for endless roaming and sniffing, and a 2nd story deck overlooking my back acre for fun and safe wildlife viewing for leisurely sunny afternoons. I'm around the house most times while I work out of the home. Unique schedules can be easily managed, and special dietary or medical needs tended to. When I have appointments, dogs are welcome to come along if they love car rides - I have a special back compartment in my SUV with windows on 3 sides to catch all the action! In boarding other peoples pets, I do my best to keep their usual routine to maximize their comfort and minimize stress while mom/dad are away. I have several spaces that can be closed off for isolation if needed for care, sleeping or feeding separately, or they can have the whole house to roam, if that is their preference. My resident cat lives in my office when we have guests, since he's not the social type. And I have a maximum of two additional (non-related) visitors at a time for utmost attention and greatest freedom. We can explore the yard and spend a little time walking, chewing, pulling, and fetching - bring your own favorite toys if you like, we'll play with those! If limiting roaming space (mischief space?) is ideal, I have a baby gate - we can segregate off the lower level, upper level, kitchen, laundry room, any of 3 bedrooms only or whatever configuration works best.
“A heartfelt thank you to Kayla and Joe for taking such wonderful care of our 9-year-old Lab while we were away. From the moment we left, we knew he was in loving, capable hands. They treated him like family, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. We never had to worry for a second, and that means more than we can say. We are incredibly grateful and already look forward to having them watch him again. We wholeheartedly recommend Kayla and Joe to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate care for their furry family member.”
“My dog Louie had the best day at Emily’s!! Emily works from home and keeps Louie active during the day. He loved playing with her dogs and the long walk he got! Louie will definitely be back!!”
About: Home full-time and just steps from miles of walking trails, your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship throughout the day. We currently have Loki, our friendly 5-year-old Golden Retriever, who loves other dogs, playing outside, and spending time with our two boys. Our boys absolutely love dogs and are gentle, affectionate, and excited to help make visiting dogs feel like part of the family. Boarding with us means your dog will be welcomed into a real home — not treated like just another booking. We only board one dog at a time, which allows us to give your dog plenty of attention, keep the environment calm, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. We do not have a fenced yard, but we have a large, wooded yard (.6 acres) where dogs can safely enjoy time outside on a lead. We also live right by a regional walking/biking trail, so frequent walks and outdoor time are easy and part of our routine. I am comfortable caring for all dogs, including senior dogs, rescue dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I have experience giving medications, crate training, leash walking, basic obedience, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. I am active and outdoorsy, so dogs who enjoy walks, playtime, and being part of family life will fit in well here. For everyone’s safety and comfort, visiting dogs must be potty trained, kid-friendly, and non-aggressive. They do not need to be crate trained. We are not currently accepting puppies. Our goal is simple: to give your dog a safe, loving, active place to stay where they get the kind of care we would want for our own dog. My husband and I both work from home on alternating schedules, so caring for dogs are part of our normal daily rhythm. We are available throughout the day for potty breaks, attention, feeding, walks, and check-ins. We live right on a regional trail, which makes daily walks easy, and we also spend time outside in our large yard with dogs safely on a lead. Pet care naturally fits into our family routine — walks, playtime, downtime, and lots of love. Your dog can expect a warm, active family home with plenty of attention, outdoor time, and affection. Because we only board one guest dog at a time, your dog will get personalized care, a calm environment, and lots of time with our friendly Golden Retriever, Loki. We want dogs to feel comfortable, safe, and included while you are away. We have a large yard, but it is not fenced, so visiting dogs are always kept safe on a lead when outside. Our home includes two dog-loving boys and our friendly Golden, so visiting dogs should be kid-friendly, potty trained, and comfortable around another dog. We can crate your dog if that is part of their normal routine, but crate training is not required. We are happy to follow your dog’s feeding, medication, walking, and sleep routines as closely as possible to help them feel secure.
“Joey is great! I never worry about my dog when he stays there. He was so excited to go when he did day care and would run to the door when we arrived. Definitely recommend.”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for them. Over the years, I’ve cared for multiple dogs through pet sitting, including looking after my mother’s 14-year-old senior dog for two weeks while she was traveling. These experiences have given me strong confidence in handling dogs of different ages, temperaments, and care needs. I currently accept only one dog at a time so I can provide my full attention and ensure a calm, safe, and comfortable environment. I understand that every dog has unique routines and preferences, and I carefully follow each owner’s detailed instructions to make sure their pet feels secure and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own, focusing on attentive, patient, and loving care. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your dog. During the holiday season, I’ll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time at home. My family enjoys spending quiet days together, so pet care easily fits into our routine. We’ll make sure each pet gets regular walks, playtime, and affection throughout the day. Boarding at my home: My family will spend most of our time at home, so your pet will enjoy calm company in a quiet and cozy environment. We provide clean spaces, regular outdoor breaks, and lots of affection to help them feel like part of the family.

About: What sets me apart is my professional background as a Medical Assistant combined with my lifelong love for animals. Growing up alongside our family dog, Topacio, who has been with us for over 10 years, I have developed a deep understanding and gentle touch for senior dog care—knowing exactly how to keep older pets comfortable, safe, and happy. My medical training gives me an extra layer of responsibility, attention to detail, and a calm demeanor when looking after pets. I am well-versed in caring for dogs of all sizes and ages from friends and family, and I focus on providing a structured, loving home environment. I treat every furry guest with the same dedication and affection as if they were my own! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I have a flexible hybrid schedule, working some days from home doing patient video consultations and other days from the office. On my work-from-home days, I am there to provide constant companionship and potty breaks throughout the day. For the days I am at the office, my schedule is highly predictable and structured, making it ideal for pets that are comfortable with a standard workday routine. No matter my schedule for the day, my evenings and weekends are completely free and dedicated 100% to long walks, fun playtime, and plenty of love! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I host pets in my home, I ensure a secure, escape-proof, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member can feel completely relaxed. Here is how I guarantee a safe stay: Structured Supervision: Thanks to my flexible hybrid schedule, I am home several days a week, and even on my office days, my routine is highly predictable. I closely monitor all interactions, ensuring feeding and playtimes are always safe and managed. Introduction & Meet-and-Greets: I always schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand. This ensures your pet feels comfortable in my home and is a great match for our sweet senior dog, Topacio. Tailored Routines & Care: With my background as a Medical Assistant, I am extremely detail-oriented. I strictly follow your specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, and any special medication requirements to keep their days consistent. Daily Updates: I love sending frequent photos and updates so you can have total peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving lots of love.
“Our dog always leaves happy from her stays with Jeremiah and his family which gives us great peace of mind. He has been so flexible and has had great communication with us on the many days we’ve had our Husky stay for doggy day-care. I highly recommend Jeremiah!”

About: Our family simply adores dogs. I personally have owned a dog for the majority of my life and have raised two puppies. My kids (14 and 12 y.o.) love dogs and dogs love them too. We have a very spacious fenced yard and my kids love playing with dogs and keeping them active in our backyard. We also take dogs for nightly walks. Our 7-year old (29 lbs) cockapoo Lily does great with dogs of her size or smaller, also with dogs that have moderate energy. She does not seem to feel comfortable with high energy dogs and also with dogs that are significantly bigger than her (hence we don't host dogs over 40 lbs). We don't crate (unless your pooch prefers it) and our guest dogs will sleep with us in bed (if they want). Your furry child will feel right at home with us as we will shower him/her with love and LOTS of cuddles and will treat him/her as part of our family 🐾❤️ I work mostly from home so I'm usually available to spend time with your dog giving them the love and attention they need. We currently have a dog of our own ( 7 y.o. cockapoo) who we care for daily. She is a very friendly dog. We have a fenced back yard and one dog of our own to keep your dog company. We also walk our dog on daily basis to give her extra exercise. My 14 and 12-year old kids love playing with the dogs.
“You can tell that Steven loves dogs, and loves walking them. Every time he returns my dog, he mentions something great that happened on a walk, whether it's a new trail he's discovered or seeing a deer. He's professional usually walks longer than 30 minutes. My dog can't wait to see him.”
“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”
About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!
“Dave is a very compassionate and gentle caretaker for my dog. I have a nervous dog, and he was very patient and understanding, offering treats and pets. I would highly recommend him!”
About: I have been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and small rodents of my own and others for most of my life! I’m currently mom to a Great Dane rescue named Paloma and a rabbit rescue named Pluto. My partner and I have done extensive training with Paloma over the last two years to remove all dog reactivity and allow her to be off-leash trained. I also have experience with elderly animals receiving hospice care as they head over the rainbow bridge. I currently work as a part time structural engineer technician from home so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to look after your little buds. My partner, Grant, is a structural engineer who also works from home. We both grew up surrounded by animals and wouldn’t have it any other way! I strongly believe that a tired dog is a happy dog! Long walks are a must for our pups to receive the attention and exercise they need and I truly believe nature is as healing to our furry family as it is to us.
About: I have been a dog / cat sitter for my friends, family and neighbors since I was 13. My family had both dogs and cats in the house when I was growing up. I love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I especially enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them outside to help expend their energy. I currently work from home in a corporate position. I have plenty of free time and would love to spend some of it taking care of animals. Typically, I am staying over at the client’s home for the duration of their trip / vacation. The client will often have me over to their home prior to their departure to meet the animal(s) and go over their needs and any other special requests they may have. It is very important to me that the client feels safe entrusting me to stay in their home and take care of their pets.
“She is amazing with our two dogs. You can tell she really cares for the animals she walks. She is always flexible and understanding with schedule changes. Our dogs loved her even though they’re usually very skeptical of new people and I would highly recommend her for any services for your pups!”
“Kelly was great with my dog Brandy. Always on-time for appointments. Brandy would sit by a window waiting for Kelly to arrive, so I know Brandy enjoyed spending time with Kelly. I highly recommend Kelly for anyone needing a dog walker.”
About: I am an animal lover and experienced caregiver (10+ yrs) so I know how important the trust between parties is when it comes to the care of loved ones! Nothing brightens my day like sharing it with a fuzzy friend; walking in the fresh air, playing their favorite games and learning how to best stimulate them intellectually. I hope to bring your pet the attention and play that best suits their needs! My schedule is currently very flexible. I am available mornings, days and evenings on weekends and Mondays. I can start the weekend as early as 7pm Friday night! I am happy to discuss the level of care and amount of time you would like spent with your pet. Respecting your pet and your home are my biggest priorities. I will abide by directions meticulously and make sure your pet is getting all the attention and love they needs. You know what your family member needs and I can carry out those directions with the loving warmth they deserve.
About: 🐾🐾🐾I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages. I currently care for my 9yo cattle dog mix. 🐶🐶🐶Growing up, my family got a dog when I was 2. Ever since then, I enjoy being around all kinds of pets and animal companions! 🐐🐐🐐I hope to expand my experience into farm-sitting with a special interest in goats and sheep. ♥️♥️♥️ How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine? I currently have an open schedule besides school and babysitting! I get my dog out for walks everyday too. I usually care for pets at a client's home. Caring for the home and animal companions is a priority for me. Please let me know specific care needs in a message as you think of any.
About: My husband and I grew up with dogs our whole lives and we owned a small dog for 15 years. We are often one our neighbors and relatives call when they need a pet sitter. We are excited to meet new dogs and families and offer pet care. Our home is warm and welcoming and we like to give pets a lot of attention. We feel they are a part of our family when they are with us. You will receive pictures and regular updates while your dog is with us, so you can be reassured your pets are having a wonderful vacation too. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My husband works from home. I work from home at times and we have two older kids who are often home to help too. We are never away for more than 4 hours at a time. We follow the owner’s preferences. We will use leashes, harnesses, etc. when on walks. We will administer medications as needed. Dogs can sleep in our beds.
About: I've lived on a homestead taking care of farm animals including dogs, cats, goats, horses, chickens, and much more! My parents bred and trained AKC Labradors and Beagles for wild game hunting. I became a farm hand for a local barn in New Hampshire at the age of 14. Once I was 16 I started overnight caretaking for horses, dogs, and cats. I have experience training puppies and rescue dogs with my parents. I also own amphibians and non conventional pets so I'm familiar with exotic caretaking. I'm currently dog sitting/walking/feedings fulltime. I'll have plenty of time during the day to play with your pets and take them outside for potty breaks. I live in apartment that does not allow cats or dogs so any pet sitting will have to be done at your home. I have my own private insurance alongside Rover Garantee. I will need a full tour of your yard if it's fenced, to make sure there aren't any means of escaping. A full detailed care sheet that includes the pet's schedule, behavioral concerns (a must), vitamins or medications schedule, prefered place to walk or run (typical place you go to help understand your pet's public behavior and help form trust with them. I will always learn your pet's behavior in a controlled and comfortable environment first. Then if you approve, we can eventually go on hikes. The more detail I have about your pet, the better their transition will be in my care. Trust and Safety is my top priority when caring for a family member that can't speak.
About: I’ve taken care of high-needs pets and am comfortable administering medicines. I’m very familiar with DM, seizure disorders, doing rehab for TPLO surgery for a dog, and other high needs. I enjoy being outdoors year-round and have open availability to care for your pet. I’d love to explore local parks and trails with your dogs! I’m currently our home’s manager and am home all day. My child is in daycare so I have open availability to love on your pets. I will use any leash/ harness requested to walk your dog, and I will pick up after them. I’m happy to provide potty breaks and playtime with your pets as well.

“Nickolai was a great dog sitter for our very high energy puppy, Woody. we had an initial meet and greet with their dog, Ryder, and they got along great. Nickolai is super chill and gave lots of pictures throughout the stay which was greatly appreciated. very responsive via text and i had absolutely no worries. we had to put woody on a special diet because of his tummy issues and Nickolai was more than happy to provide that extra care for us.”
“Our 5-year old Golden had the best time with Kimberly, John, their kids, and their Golden - the entire family gave Sunny so much love. We received daily updates/pictures to show the fun she was having - walks, fetch, tug, cuddles, outside time, etc. This was the first time that Sunny stayed with them, but won’t be the last. Having a family who treats your dog like their own is priceless. She can’t wait to go back!”
“Abigail was very helpful in planning our pets care. We met ahead of time in her home so our dog could meet her first. Her energy was very calm and I felt confident in her abilities right away. She sent photos every day of our very happy dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone. We would definitely trust her again with our highly sensitive and anxious pitbull.”
“Cassandra and Eric were great with our older dog! They sent us pictures every day and told us about how was doing each day! Kona loved their fenced in back yard and being able to soak up the sun on their deck and keep an eye on things. I will definitely try to use them again in the future!”
“I was impressed with how kind, warm and considerate Patrick and his children are, Gaia took to them immediately and the pictures that were sent, were a comfort to me knowing Gaia liked and trusted them, 5 stars.”
“Marina took good care of our pets and we could tell that she is definitely a dog person. We saw that both dogs were enjoying their cuddles in the picture we received. We are rarely separated from them, so it was nice to have no worries. Marina’s home is lovely and well equipped with pet toys and a feeding station. We noticed the surrounding grounds were nice for walking the dogs. We will rebook should the need arise.”
“Alex is so sweet and wonderful! She took care of our beloved Ollie for two weeks while we were away on vacation, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Alex treated Ollie like he was her own and kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and adorable photos. I highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter. Your pets will be loved and cared for just like family!”

“We were very happy with Mochi's stay at Alicia and Simon's. They sent us pictures and videos and communicated with us the entire time we were gone. Mochi was so sad to leave their house and must have had fun because he has pretty much been sleeping since he got back!”
