“Marilyn and her family are the best! Our pup always comes home happy and healthy. They are accommodating, fun, and always send the best pics of the dogs playing together. Highly recommend!”
“Teri was really great with Olive! We had a meet and greet first, and I could tell right away that Olive would be very happy staying with Teri. The sit went well, and I received photos and updates to let me know my girl was happy! Easily a 5 star experience. Thanks, Teri!!”
“Thank you Camila and Lino for taking care of Buckshot. I had concerns about him having separation anxiety and fireworks trauma. They provided the care he needed to get through NYs eve. And no worries about anxiety, they made him feel at home. Not only did we have a vacation, but our dog did also. We will be return customers.”

“Denetra was wonderful and it was a smooth & easy process from the initial meet & greet throughout the entire stay. She was responsive and provided daily updates. I found her in a pinch ahead of the July 4th weekend. She was a life saver and Duke seemed to settle in with her immediately! #dogwhisperer”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! From my first mixed-breed pup in high school to raising my first Siberian Husky from just 3 months old, I've always loved caring for dogs. Honestly, I wish I'd known sooner that I could get paid to spend time with these amazing companions! I've house-trained my own furry babies and have loved watching them grow up alongside my hooman kiddos. Seeing the bond between them has been incredibly rewarding. Our home is full of love, and we can't wait to welcome your pup into it. Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or snuggling, they'll be treated like family and receive lots of love, attention, and care while you're away. I work from home and with both my kids now in school I have plenty of time to play and belly rub your fur babies throughout the day! I have a fenced yard with a friendly husky who loves to keep company to all hoomans and pups alike! I also have 2 kids who adore dogs—it’s a constant game of who gets who tired first. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.
“Caroline was wonderful. She’s calm and seems very easy going. Our dogs are quite hyper but she dealt with them very gently. We appreciate her helping us, even when our one dog had last minute surgery so she had to administer meds. Definitely would recommend!”
“Amy was such a wonderful help!! I was in a bit of a pinch, and she stepped in to take great care of Luna while I was away. Was also very appreciative of the photos and videos she sent (as apparently I’m now the one that has separation anxiety from Luna 😂)”
“I don’t have enough words to describe how great Savannah and her husband Brent were to my baby Lucy. They are the sweetest people, communicated so well! I could tell Lucy was in the best hands! Their little baby Pongo is also the cutest!! 100% recommend!! We will definitely be booking again!! Thank you!!”
“Krystina is amazing! My dog always gets SO excited to spend time with Krystina and loves his playdates with her dog! She is always on top of his meds, attentive to our dog, and communicates well with how our dog is doing and shares pictures regularly. I always know my dog is in great hands with Krystina, I highly recommend her for any services! She is the best! We’re moving out of state but wish we could take her with us for future sitting needs!”
“Lady had a wonderful time playing at Aubrey's house! Aubrey was available to talk to me and responded quickly whenever I texted her. She even sent me pictures! Thanks so much Aubrey - we will definitely be using her again! :)”
“Lauren was absolutely wonderful! We had never before left Watson for this long and were anxious about it. But Lauren sent pictures and comments frequently and it was clear he was soon having a great time with her and Dito! We can't thank Lauren enough for her great care and thoughtfulness!”
“Even though my booking was so last minute, Bruna was able to accommodate me and my Koa. Bruna was responsive and kept in touch with me regarding Koa. I really felt at ease knowing my pup was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Bruna to anyone who would want their pet to be well taken care of!”
“My toy poodle had an amazing time with Anitra! She paid attention to his previous injuries and carefully administered meds as I requested while giving him all the love and attention. She also sent photos and videos each day so I can see how he was doing while I was away.”
“We were very pleased w the entire experience. We, with our two dogs, met Evan in advance to make sure everyone was comfortable and at that point I knew we were in good hands. Our babies had so much fun running around on a farm Happily recommend Evan.”
“Erin and Dave are amazing!! They sent lots of pictures and videos, and took care of my girl like she was their own. I would recommend them to anyone and will absolutely book with them in the future!”
“Kimberlee was really great with my dog Izzy. Izzy is an older lady and has various issues. Kimberlee was still willing to work with her and took great care of her. Her backyard was great for exploring. I also got daily updates and photos which were much appreciated!”

“Cameron took wonderful care of our cats while we were away. He was kind, gentle, and incredibly thoughtful with them. He spent quality time playing with them and kept us updated every day with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our cats are naturally shy, but Cameron was patient and let them warm up at their own pace, it was amazing to see that they had opened up to him within just two days. Beyond being fantastic with pets, Cameron is also a genuinely pleasant person to talk to. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would happily book him again!”
“Blake was wonderful about sending photos of my cat. I think my cat will miss her more than she missed me! Lol. It was nice to enjoy my vacation knowing Annabelle was safe and well cared for.”
“Kim took such thoughtful care of Django, and kept us notified of his activity and interactions with her cats, including photos. He seemed happy at her home. I look forward to using her cat boarding services again in the future and recommend her as a cat sitter. You can tell she loves cats.”
“Brittney has been very reliable, loving, and professional with my kitties. When I am away on my travels, I have peace of mind, knowing that she is caring for them.”
“Chelsey and David took such great care of my dog and two cats and were extremely responsive. Communication was always quick, and they were thoughtful, proactive, and genuinely willing to help. I would absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“We've had Bell take care of our cat for two vacations now and we couldn't be more pleased! She took really great care of our Mina, making sure she was fed and cleaned and entertained. Mina even warmed up to her and asked for chin scratches and head bumps! We are seriously impressed and will certainly call on Bell to help us again in the future. Thanks, Bell!”
“Extremely patient, kind, professional, and committed to making sure my cat was taken care of. Will recommend to others and rebook anytime. Thank you Heather! May God bless you and your family.”
“Katrin did an amazing job, and we will definitely book her again for future trips! We were stunned that she bonded with our cat so easily, as he can be wary of strangers. She took excellent care of him while we were gone and sent pictures with updates on every visit. We felt better about our trip knowing that he had someone to receive some attention from daily who he trusted.”
“Audrey did a great job taking care of my kitty's. I had to go to a funeral and was so glad when she accepted my service request on such short notice. She followed my instructions, provided some other unexpected services and provided pictures. She was great ??!”
“Winter did a great job taking care of our 4 cats. I really appreciate how easy the whole process was and how well Winter communicated and kept us posted while we were away. Thanks so much!”
“Thank you so much! Out cats clearly warmed up to you immediately and we were impressed with how professional and thorough you were in the on-boarding process. You are super responsive, communicated clearly, and were totally fine with all of our detailed (somewhat overboard) instructions. We highly recommend you to anyone that needs a cat/house sitter!”
About: I have helped with cats since I was little. Me and my sister found a kitten in a sewer in Mooresville North Carolina when I was about 7 or 8 me and my family helped to get her healthy and rehome her. Ever since then I have loved cats of all kinds. I have never personally owned one but I have watched neighbors cats while they were out of town since I was about 10.
About: I love all animals and am dedicated to their care! I have rescued many pets, including my own dog and 2 goats. Your fur baby will not be left out from all the fun at my house as I have plenty of time to play with your pup, I can be relied on to care for your pet as my own!! I am currently working part time, 5 mins from where I live- schedule is flexible most days leaving plenty of time for ur furry friend! I am home in the morning, evening and throughout the day to take care of my own pets along with yours! Unfortunately I do not have a fenced in yard, but it’s a big yard! I keep a watchful eye on my dog while she does her business and leash her for longer walks, same for your dog- wanderers definitely leashed full time outside. I can easily provide your dog with a crate if needed/ its own room with a couch and plenty of toys to play with! My cats and dog are fed twice a day and have water available to them 24/7!
“Scarlett is excellent and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!!! She took care of our cat Kenny while we were gone on a long trip. She is very informative and pays attention to details. Also she gave Kenny all of the love he needed while we were gone! 😇 Kenny seemed to enjoy her as his babysitter. Would book again.”
About: Cats are often labeled as “low maintenance,” but any true cat parent knows that isn’t always the case. Cats thrive on routine, familiarity, and trust—and when their humans are away, even the most independent cats can experience stress or anxiety. I specialize exclusively in cat care, offering attentive check-ins and house sitting tailored to each cat’s unique personality and needs. Whether your cat is social and affectionate, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience and reassurance, I take the time to meet them where they are. I’m an experienced cat parent to five cats, including a senior 16-year-old and several energetic younger cats, all with very different temperaments. This firsthand experience has taught me how important it is to recognize subtle behavioral cues, maintain routines, and provide enrichment, comfort, and consistency while you’re away. From meal times and litter box care to play, affection, and quiet companionship, I ensure your cat feels safe, respected, and cared for in their own home. I understand that some cats simply need a calm presence, while others crave interaction—and I adjust my care accordingly. Your cat isn’t “just a pet”—they’re family. I treat every cat in my care with the same patience, respect, and love I give my own.

“Teri was AMAZING! My dog Delilah is always super anxious around sitters, but she settled in very quickly with Teri. Teri was sweet, loving, kind, and gentle with my baby girl. Definitely a good pick!”
About: **PLEASE RESPOND IN TIMELY MANNER AFTER RECEIVE REPLY TO REQUEST. GREATLY APPRECIATE IT. 🙏🏾** I've taken care of family and friends' dogs since 2010, starting in Charlotte, NC. Longest I've kept one dog is for 2 weeks. I love taking care of dogs as if they were my own. Currently live in Durham, NC in my childhood home. I work from home, so I'm the perfect sitter that can entertain your dog while you're at work, away on vacay/trip, or just need some me time. I am a patient person and do have experience training a couple of dogs from not fearing their crate, knowing boundaries within house, and cease whining. I work from home Monday-Friday from 8-4:30 pm. I occasionally have appts and other events on the weekends, including attending church worship service. I'm at home the majority of the time. I have a pretty open concept in my house, but I close off doors to bedrooms and bathroom. I sometimes close off my hallway to keep in a secluded place in case of visitors or go to sleep at night. I take dogs out on leash, I currently do not have a fenced yard. I spend quality time with them and engage often and show plenty of love.

“Bruna took great care of my dog Sky! He had an amazing time with her, and I really appreciated the timely updates, photos, and videos throughout his stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Bruna for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Chelsea and David were amazing! When I picked up my pup, she was happy and tuckered out! I would definitely bring my girl back to them when I come back into town. Can't recommend enough!”
“Potato can require some help managing his energy and engaging appropriately in new situations. David talked us through his ideas of plans A and B and kept us updated. Thanks to his careful attention, Potato ended up having a fantastic day. He came home happy, relaxed, and absolutely exhausted! A raging success.”
“Taco loves to go to Laura’s house, every time we start to round the corner to her house, he starts to get excited and can’t wait to get there and play with Marley! He always comes home tuckered out and happy!”
About: My name is Dylan and I have lived in the Raleigh/Durham area for an about three years now. I’ve lived my entire life around dogs and puppies and absolutely love them! I have a fur baby named Benny who will be 3 in July. He’s playful, loving, and so much fun! I am very familiar with the needs of a puppy or full size dog and love meeting new furry friends! One of my favorite activities is walking dogs and going to the park. I look forward to meeting your pup!! I work full time currently, but I have a flexible schedule and work fully remote from my home office. I can be very flexible and attentive to your dog’s needs during the day and evenings! I do have a fully fenced in yard, but prefer to be outside with my dog when he’s outside. Every morning, I wake up early to take my dog on a walk. My dog is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play! He gets along with all other kinds of furry friends. Our house is fairly good size with a lot of room for a dog to run around and play! He has a strict breakfast and dinner schedule that we follow daily as well.
“Anitra was so supportive in taking my pup for an early drop off, it was great to see Sydney at the dog park right next to her home while I was studying for a big exam. Highly recommend her!”
About: Hello, my senior dog of 14 years passed away recently, so I am looking to get my pup fix in while also helping you out! You can expect an attentive, caring and fun foster environment when your pet stays with me. I am an active individual who works from home and doesnt mind stepping out of the house 3 to 4 times a day to exercise and play with your pets! I currently live a block away from Duke's east campus, so your pup will have access to beautiful walks around the East Campus loop, the Trinity Park neighborhood, and the Eno River state park, if they are up for it! 🤠 I also have plenty of dog toys, dog beds, and a kennel if your dog is crate trained and prefers to sleep in a crate! I currently work from home, so your pet will have unlimited access to myself and my apartment while we stay together! As mentioned above, I love being active with pets, so whatever your animals outdoor needs are, Im sure that I can fill them! I have easy access to Duke's East Campus loop, the Trinity Park Neighborhood, and the Eno River state park for all play and exercise needs. I am a physically active person, and would love to take your pet out as much as they desire! I do have a kennel available for dogs who prefer to be crated, and if not, I have free roam dog beds, couches and human beds available for all pets who enjoy them!
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 7 years old. What sets me apart is the genuine care I give to every pet. I focus on personalized attention, clear communication with owners, and creating a calm, loving environment so pets feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I schedule my day around visits, walks, feeding times, and play so each pet gets reliable care and attention. I treat every pet like family. I follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also provide lots of attention, love, supervision and updates so both pets and owners feel safe and at ease.
About: Have had at least 1 pet for over 25 years. Wife and I are recent empty nesters that went from having 4 cats and 2 dogs to a Lab and 1 cat when the last of our 4 kids moved out. We love all animals and will treat them like our own. I am a public school teacher, so I am fortunate enough to have summers off. So my availability is very open even a short notice. We have a dog park for them to play at our place. Our Labrador Bailey will be put in crate until they get acquainted if needed. Bailey is friendly as can be, however I know animals can get nervous in new environments. If coming to your residence I will request and do’s or dont’s to ensure your animal is taken care of up to your expectations and above. I am a public school teacher, so I am fortunate enough to have summers off. So my availability is very open even a short notice. Love all animals and will freaky all animals as if they are my own. We would be honored to treat your animal to a nice vacation as you enjoy yours. My wife and I are retired and have a very flexible schedule. We are happy to accommodate any requests or special needs you may have. We cater to each individual animals personality. We try to maintain and provide care as close to wider the animal is used to in a daily basis in order to minimize any stress.
“Jade was warm, professional, and provided attentive, loving care, and maintaining my dog’s routine perfectly. When I returned, my dog was happy and well-exercised, having formed a wonderful bond with Jade. I highly recommend Jade to anyone seeking a fantastic dog sitter!”
About: I have been doing this for over a year now and I really enjoy it. I initially started doing it to socialize my pup but now I just do it cause I love dogs. I also have trained my puppy with a puppy book called The Focused Puppy and she has become a very well trained dog. Will help train yours too if interested. I work from home and have a large, fully fenced in backyard. I take my pup out there to play and potty every hour or so, as well as walks in the neighborhood. My neighborhood also has great dog parks walking distance to me that we love to go to. Feed them whenever they are supposed to eat, take them outside in the backyard often, long walks (I am very active) I also have tons of toys and treats :)
“Brody had a great day with Danielle! She took him on a run, walk, and played ball. I felt very comfortable having him spend the day with her! I enjoyed the pictures updates through out the day.”

“Ally is willing to go above and beyond to make all animals feel comfortable and cared for. She’s very responsive and provides any and all reassurance and communication.”
About: After growing up with cats and dogs all my life, I have a special place for them in my heart. I now have two cats of my own that I love to spoil and care for. I have experience walking and checking on neighbors' dogs as well as house/pet sitting overnight. I have experience working with a wide range of cats and dogs - from kittens and puppies to senior pets. Depending on your dog's personality and interests, possible activities include playing at dog parks, walking through the neighborhood, or relaxing in the backyard. I am detail oriented and will cater to you and your pet. I would love to become your pet's best friend!
“Bell is reliable, attentive, friendly, and my dog loved her! He is a fearful and sometimes stubborn baby, she was able to get him out for walks on the first visit when it has often taken people multiple times to get to that point. She was very quick and thorough in her responses and put me at ease that my pup would be okay while I was out of town. We will definitely consider her again in the future!”
About: I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're apart of my own family. Over the years, I've cared for and watched pets for neighbors, family and friends, everything from drop-in visits to extended stays and I genuinely enjoy giving each animal the same care I'd want for my own. I currently own two senior cats (my babies), so I'm especially comfortable with older pets who may need a little extra patience, medication, or a gentler routine. I also frequently care for my sister's dog and cat when she's traveling, so I'm experienced juggling different personalities and needs under one roof. Whether it's sticking to a feeding schedule, giving playtime and snuggles, or just making sure your pet feels safe while you're away I treat every animal like family. I have a pretty open schedule, so I'm flexible and can usually accommodate what works best for you. I'm available for: Weekday visits and walks: morning, afternoon, or evening Weekend care: both Saturday and Sunday Recurring bookings: happy to set up a regular schedule if that's what you need Last-minute requests: if something comes up, just ask Whether you need daily check-ins for your cat, a midday dog walk, or someone to stop by while you're out of town, I can likely make it work. Don't hesitate to reach out and ask about a specific time, I'm happy to figure something out! I know how hard it is to leave your pet in someone else's hands, I feel the same way about my own. That's why I treat every animal I care for as if they were my own. Safety first: I'm always alert to potential hazards, things like open doors, toxic plants, small objects that could be swallowed, or escape routes. I follow any instructions you leave to the letter, and I'll check in if anything seems off. Trust & communication: I'll send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it's a quick text after a drop-in or a full report after a walk, you'll never be left wondering. I respect your home, your space, and your pet's routine. A calm, loving environment: I meet every animal where they are, shy cats get patience and quiet company, energetic dogs get walks and playtime, seniors get gentle care and extra comfort. My goal is to keep their day as stress-free and happy as possible, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands.
About: I've been caring for dogs since 2014, when my family welcomed our own dog into our home. Because he was reactive around other dogs, I gained firsthand experience with consistent training, patience, and understanding canine behavior. Through structured training and positive reinforcement, I watched him become much calmer and more confident around other dogs, which taught me the importance of tailoring care to each dog's unique personality and needs. I've also fostered a puppy, giving me experience with younger dogs and the extra attention, playtime, and consistency they require. I love keeping dogs active by taking them on long walks and hikes, exploring new trails and neighborhoods while making sure they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. Whether your dog enjoys an adventure outdoors or prefers a slower-paced stroll, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they're with me. I am currently a graduate student at Duke University, so I will have flexible time for your pup's needs! I am free all day on weekends, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday after 12pm, Thursday after 1:30pm. I am available to walk dogs during the day and typically enjoy local hikes around Eno State park. Your dog's safety is my absolute priority. During walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed unless we're in a designated off-leash area with the owner's permission. Since I have experience with reactive dogs, I stay alert of our surroundings and will avoid situations that may be stressful for dogs. When caring for pets at your home, my rule is to treat your home and dog as I would treat mine. This includes following feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and respecting house guidelines. I also make sure pets have plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and bathroom breaks. As an attentive dog owner myself, I understand the need for peace of mind while you're away. I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed about how your pet is doing. My intention is to make sure your pup is happy, safe, and healthy while you are apart.
“Heather has been a great walker for my pup! She always takes good care of her and sends pics and updates. I especially appreciate how often she’s been able to come through on last minute requests.”
“So thankful Randy was able to walk our pups. I'll be reaching out again if I go out of town. Was communicative and friendly, followed instructions, and was great with the pups.”
About: I have had pets all my life, they have always been part of my family, and I truly value their importance. I love giving them a safe, comfortable, and loving space. I have free afternoons and evenings on weekdays after work, and I’m fully available on weekends. My husband/partner works from home on some days, so your dog will rarely be alone. I truly enjoy having company, and I’m used to walking three times every day with them. Your dog will be free to move around my entire home. At night, I have a designated open space for their bed, food, water and toys that is connected to the living room, so they are always part of the home environment (shown in the attached photos). But if he/she prefers, the living room is also available always 🐾 Just a few steps from my home, there’s a quiet, pet-friendly, low-traffic area that’s perfect for walks, as well as a park just a few streets away. If you’re comfortable with it, we can also take him/her to a nearby trail or park. I enjoy walking and running, and when your dog arrives, we start with a walk to help him/her feel comfortable and get to know each other.
About: Hey! My name is Jordan, I have been pet sitting and house sitting for 3 years and babysitting this past year for my friends and family! I just turned 18 so I can finally make an account of rover, but I love animals. I’ve been around all kinds of dogs and cats and can match whatever energy your pet needs, whether that is going on a run, playing fetch, or chilling on the couch watching a show! Truth be told I care more about animals than people. Maybe that sounds harsh, in reality we do not deserve animals but we get the best companionship you could ask for. I’m currently away for school and can explain how much I miss my dog. I’m hoping to pour love into other pets while I can’t with my own ♥️ I am a part time cosmetology student at Aveda Chapel hill. My hours are 9 am to 8 pm Tuesday, Thursday, Friday. Every other day I will be more than happy to spend time with your pets. I live with my 24 yo sister and her husband. They have a dog named Tony who is super sweet. Before being able to watch pets in my home I would have to introduce them to Tony to make sure both parties are safe. if I am watching your pet at your house feel free to ask me to wash dishes, straighten up or do a load of laundry! Same goes for housesitting!!

“Blake has been a huge help with our puppy! She has been very available and flexible coming by to walk our dog. Our puppy has a lot of stranger anxiety and she has been very patient and understanding with him. We will definitely continue to use Blake as our dog walker!”
“Aubrey walked my new puppy for a month. She kept me updated. U can tell she has a true love for dogs. Shes easy going. Reliable. Look forward to having her dog sit/walk in the future.”
About: Growing up with my rescue dog, Jazmine, shaped the way I care for animals. She had only one working eye, so I learned early that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines. Looking after her taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of making animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved! Today, I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. I work remotely, which allows me to spend more quality time with the pets in my care while maintaining a flexible schedule. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most at ease. In addition to Rover, I’ve also cared for pets through other trusted house-sitting platforms, giving me experience looking after both pets and the homes they’re most comfortable in. I understand how important trust and communication are, so you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and prompt responses throughout your booking. I’m respectful of your home, attentive to your pet’s routine, and committed to providing the same level of care I’d want for my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy until you return!

From my first mixed-breed pup in high school to raising my first Siberian Husky from just 3 months old, I've always loved caring for dogs. Honestly, I wish I'd known sooner that I could get paid to spend time with these amazing companions! I've house-trained my own furry babies and have loved watching them grow up alongside my hooman kiddos. Seeing the bond between them has been incredibly rewarding. Our home is full of love, and we can't wait to welcome your pup into it. Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or snuggling, they'll be treated like family and receive lots of love, attention, and care while you're away. I work from home and with both my kids now in school I have plenty of time to play and belly rub your fur babies throughout the day! I have a fenced yard with a friendly husky who loves to keep company to all hoomans and pups alike! I also have 2 kids who adore dogs—it’s a constant game of who gets who tired first. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.
“Caroline was wonderful. She’s calm and seems very easy going. Our dogs are quite hyper but she dealt with them very gently. We appreciate her helping us, even when our one dog had last minute surgery so she had to administer meds. Definitely would recommend!”
“Amy was such a wonderful help!! I was in a bit of a pinch, and she stepped in to take great care of Luna while I was away. Was also very appreciative of the photos and videos she sent (as apparently I’m now the one that has separation anxiety from Luna 😂)”
“I don’t have enough words to describe how great Savannah and her husband Brent were to my baby Lucy. They are the sweetest people, communicated so well! I could tell Lucy was in the best hands! Their little baby Pongo is also the cutest!! 100% recommend!! We will definitely be booking again!! Thank you!!”
“Lady had a wonderful time playing at Aubrey's house! Aubrey was available to talk to me and responded quickly whenever I texted her. She even sent me pictures! Thanks so much Aubrey - we will definitely be using her again! :)”
“Lauren was absolutely wonderful! We had never before left Watson for this long and were anxious about it. But Lauren sent pictures and comments frequently and it was clear he was soon having a great time with her and Dito! We can't thank Lauren enough for her great care and thoughtfulness!”
“We were very pleased w the entire experience. We, with our two dogs, met Evan in advance to make sure everyone was comfortable and at that point I knew we were in good hands. Our babies had so much fun running around on a farm Happily recommend Evan.”
“Erin and Dave are amazing!! They sent lots of pictures and videos, and took care of my girl like she was their own. I would recommend them to anyone and will absolutely book with them in the future!”
“Very happy with Chelsey and David and their care for our pup, Mallory! We have used their services for daycare dropoff and a longer, multiple night trip. They are flexible with dropoff and pickup times, and are enthusiastic about having Mal around. Their dog, Athena, is a fun play pal for Mal and Chelsey and David are conscientious about monitoring playtime and giving the dogs a break when needed. They send pics and videos of Mal's time there which is a plus given being away from your doggo can be a bit stressful (for you and them)! I feel that Mal is happy and safe while in their care and that makes my dog mom heart super thankful :)”
“Katrin did a wonderful job taking care of our pup. Her space is perfect for taking care of pups and she clearly loves dogs. She was great about getting her plenty of walks and sent lots of pictures and videos.”
“Julie and Greg provided amazing care for our young high energy hound during his first-ever experience with a sitter. They sent photos and updates every day. Not only did they give him plenty of exercise, play, and affection, they worked with him on some problem behaviors/doggie-manner-deficits during his stay with them. I could not recommend more highly.”
“Alani and Erika took such great care of my two dogs! They were so accommodating for them both and kept in great contact while I was out of town. I will definitely be using them again! My dogs loved them so much!”
