“6 stars needs to be on the scale. Been using rover for a while, Scott and his family are friendly, easy going and a joy to “work” with. Welcoming to are puppy (at the time of) Cheesy. He was transparent the entire stay with picture dumps and updates daily. Two thumbs up”

“Exceptional service from Monica as always. My Teddy boy knows his second home and her family. Couldn’t have chosen a better place and person to trust with my furry baby. Monica is absolutely fantastic.”
“Very friendly and communicative. Sent photo updates. Very quick response time. Oakley seemed so happy to be there and got along with her family well. My dog had an uncharacteristic accident (pee) over night and Ana handled this without issue or frustration. She helped Oakleys settle in and feel comfortable so this didn’t happen again!”
“Elaine was great with my pup Nugget. She sent daily pictures and updated me each evening about Nugget's day. It was wonderful to be able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my fur baby was in such good hands. Will definitely book Elaine again!”

“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”

“Jazmine (and her boyfriend Norman) took wonderful care of our 12-year-old black Lab, Judy, who is a cancer survivor and a bit particular—sweet, but needy and not a fan of other dogs. Jazmine cared for her in her home, made sure she had her morning medicine, and sent us daily updates with snuggle photos that made us feel completely at ease. Judy was clearly loved and beautifully looked after. Warm, professional, and trustworthy—highly recommend.”

Photos and comments were sent to ensure our little one was having a good time. I thought our dog might not want to leave Jenny! If you are looking for the best person to stay with your dog, Jenny is the one!”
“Shantel pulled through for us on a last minute boarding. Kai seemed to enjoy her best life at Shantell's based on the pictures we got back. Great communication, would choose her again if we needed to.”

Wonderful sitter and took simply the best care of our dog while we were away.”

About: Since I was young I have always been drawn to caretaking of animals, and so whenever a neighbor or friend went away I did the pet sitting in their homes! I previously worked at a doggy daycare and board, so I have plenty of experience in taking care of dogs needs, including things like medication. Currently, I work in an animal shelter, which includes different feedings and walking of various breeds of dogs! I am also currently studying conservation and wildlife management in university, and will be taking a multitude of caretaking classes that will help me take care of your animals as well. I currently work a few days a week at an animal shelter. My usual work days are from 8-3, and anywhere outside of that time I will be free to hang with your pets! If I have two weeks notice of a booking, I can also schedule shorter work hours to make sure I meet your pets needs. When I care for pets in their homes, I prioritize the wellbeing of the animal, including comfort and routine. I will follow their day-to-day feeding and exercise schedules while also giving the animals some love! I will also keep owners up to date with pictures, and will reach out with updates if needed!
“We had such a great experience! Our request was very last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive. She even came by before our trip to go over everything, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was so kind, attentive, and clearly cares about the animals she looks after. She not only took great care of our cats, but was also able to check on our chickens, which we really appreciated. It made being away so much easier knowing all of our animals were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“Sam was absolutely wonderful with our cat while we were away. She was able to give him his insulin every day no problem and went above and beyond in making sure he was loved while we were gone.”
“Brittney was really great taking care of our two cats while we were away. She's dependable, detail-oriented and caring. We loved getting photos each day. Definitely recommended!”
About: Although I don't have cats of my own, I have cat-sit my neighbors and friends cats on and off throughout my life. Totaling all of that into about 2 years of experience. I am good with giving cats the space that they need and making sure they are happy. I am ok with cleaning out their litter boxes when needed.
“From the reports and Rover card photos Izzy really enjoyed Emma's company, and despite being a shy cat, he came out and let her brush him right away. She made me feel comfortable leaving Izzy in someone else's care for the first time. I will definitely book her for my next trip, if she's available.”
“Sarah is amazing! She is very responsive to messages, is very attentive to all of those little instructions we express about our fur babies and- most of all- they love her! Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! She took care of Tilly our “spicy” and sometimes difficult cat with ease. She always sent us photos and was very communicative. I will definitely hire her again when needed and would highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve lived with and cared for cats my whole life, from shy rescues to confident cuddle-bugs. With over 25 years of experience, I understand feline body language, routines, and the little things that help cats feel safe and respected in their space. I can handle medication reminders, keep feeding schedules steady, and make sure their home stays clean and cozy. I also don’t mind the not-so-glamorous tasks—I’m passionate about keeping litter boxes fresh and spotless so your cat stays happy and stress-free. Whether your cat wants playtime, quiet company, or just someone gentle who understands their quirks, I’m here to give them warm, reliable care while you’re away.
“Allie provides excellent care and attention to our cat during her visits. She provides expert documentation via the report cards, which gives me much peace of mind. I book with Allie time after time for while we are away. I know my very particular (11 year old) Siamese is in expert hands.”
“We are so grateful to have found Tanuj, who took such good care of our cats. He sent us photos and updates after every drop-in, which made us feel at ease. We highly recommend Tanuj and look forward to booking his services again soon.”
About: Hello! I’m an experienced pet lover with over 5 years on Rover, caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. As the proud owner of two Great Danes, ages 1 and 2, I understand the needs of larger breeds, from daily exercise to specialized care. My experience with these gentle giants has taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to handle big personalities with ease. Whether you need someone to walk, feed, or simply keep your pets company, you can trust me to provide the care and love they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I work at schools and have a lot of flexibility in the summer to meet your needs. My experience with large breeds means I’m comfortable managing pets of all sizes, ensuring they get the exercise, companionship, and attention they need. I look forward to giving your pets a safe and caring environment while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities during every visit, walk and stay. When caring for pets in their own homes, I ensure a safe environment by following your routines and respecting any special instructions you provide. I take precautions to make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure, and I always keep your pet on a leash during walks, using proper harnesses or collars to prevent accidents. I’m also vigilant about their surroundings to avoid any risks, such as unsafe plants, other animals, or traffic. Building trust with you and your pet is essential. I keep communication open, sharing updates and photos so you know how things are going and feel reassured that your pet is in good hands. With my flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate time and attention to meet each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for even when you’re not there.
“Sarah is fantastic! She came to our house and played with our dog, Natalie, while we were gone for the day. We received an update and photos at the end of the visit, which we really appreciated. Thank you, Sarah! Natalie can’t wait to see you again :)”
“Wonderful experience with Grace and Brett house sitting for our two kitties! We had no issues and came back to a very clean house. They provided daily updates with pictures, and we felt very comfortable the entire time we were away. We will 100% be rebooking their services in the future.”

“Emily is wonderful. I had my first puppy for less than 1 month when my work schedule demanded that I work a Saturday all day and night. I found Emily on Rover.com and trusted my instinct that she would be a great puppy sitter, for my puppy ...and for me. Before finding Emily I feared I'd spend 9 hours worried about my dog, and the day/ night would drag on feeling like forever. Thanks to Emily I had no worries whatsoever! I loved seeing the photos and video she sent, further boosting my confidence my dog was happy, healthy, safe and in the best of care. Please if you are seeking any services for dog sitting/ care, know that Emily and her household (her dogs, animals, and husband) are trustworthy, responsible, and the best! This coming from an over anxious first time puppy owner who was a complete stranger to Emily before luckily finding her on this website. I decided on utilizing Emily over friends/ family because of her knowledge and experience. Im so glad I did, it was the best choice. Thanks so much Emily, and I'll 100% be reaching out for future puppy care again! :)”

“Estefania was amazing with Simba! Initially, I was a bit concerned about how her dog, Nova, would react to Simba since he’s very playful and persistent, but they ended up getting along just fine. When we first arrived for our meet and greet, Estefania’s home was clean and calm, and Simba immediately felt comfortable, heading straight for the toys. Talking with Estefania and hearing her insights on how puppies behave put my mind at ease, and I felt confident leaving Simba in her care. She also sent wonderful videos of Simba, and I could tell by his energy and excitement that Estefania treated him like her own. Simba can’t wait to visit Nova and Estefania again!”
“Melissa and Angel are great! They took great care of my dog Whiskey, providing walks, playtime, and plenty of pictures throughout. I will definitely use them again when I’m in the area. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals in general since a young age, with my grandpa running a small farm. I’ve grown up around breeds like German Shepherds, and have always taken care of friends’ dogs while they were in vacation. I learned a lot from my fiancé, who ran a successful dog walking business in New York City Give yourself peace of mind, your dog is in safe, loving, caring hands. I’m currently working from home with a special schedule which I take advantage of as it frees up a lot of time during the day. Pet care fits into it quite easily, as I have a daily routine I follow which includes dog walks, time with the dogs outside and of course feedings (and tending medicine when needed). I have a home situated on a quiet, secluded private lot that backs up onto a river with several trails within a short walking distance. The yard is secluded, well shaded and has ample space. I take care to be active with the dogs, so I usually toss frisbees or play fetch several times a day to keep them content. I walk my dogs twice around the neighborhood. Besides home, I have a number of dog-friendly trails and parks both in East Stroudsburg and nearby where I bring the dogs for some quality time outside. This includes hiking on trails and in the mountains, bringing the dogs to rivers or lakes, I mix it up each week depending on the weather conditions. Any time I go on an outdoor adventure, I make sure I have the owner’s consent. Their dogs will always be hydrated and have a snack. I only ask that if your dog has specific dietary needs or is taking medication, that you provide me with the necessary information and schedule. I have two modes of transport for dogs, both of which offer plenty of space, safety and comfort for the dogs while en route.
About: I have over 25 years of experience watch dogs. The last two years I have been working with the See Eye Foundation as a Puppy Sitter.

I am an avid runner and cyclist, so walking or even running with your dog is not a problem I do not have a fenced yard, but I have a 3-acre property where dogs can roam and run. I do have a 120 foot leash that lets the dogs run without fear of them running away. If your dog likes to play fetch or just do a lot of exploring, the yard is ideal for them. I am also available to do multiple daily check ins and walks if the dog prefers to stay at home.

“Our Gabby is a 16 year old toy poodle who does not usually take well to new people. I couldn’t believe it when we first me Janny, Gabby warmed up to her right away. It was so good to see and a relief to know that Gabby would be comfortable and happy after I left her. Janny is a personable young woman with a big heart. This was a trial run for us, it’s been hard finding just the right place for Gabby. We are so happy that we’ve found Janny, now we can move forward with our travel plans.🙂”

“Jessi was great with my late booking. I shared a little bit about my dogs’ quirks and she reassured me about her experience. We weren’t able to meet ahead of time but she asked good questions that made me feel confident that she would take good care of my babies. We were in the middle of a heat wave and she did so well accommodating them. Great pics of my smiling cuties even though Jessi was essentially a stranger to them.”
About: I’ve always had pets as a kid, and the same as an adult! It’s a privilege to be able to care for my own “babies” and others ❤️ I have two cats and a dog, so my days are quite pet-oriented. The cats need a little less care than my dog, but they all get loved equally 🥰 I treat my animals extremely well, and other pets I treat like my own! All animals are important to love and care for, big or small 😇
“Amazing service. She came out to meet my dog prior to the first walk I booked, and was very polite. professional, and thorough with her questions. I felt very confident in her abilities- and let’s be real, we are all a little nervous leaving our pets in the care of strangers, especially for the first time. She was also very flexible when some last minute things popped up and I needed her help with the pup on very short notice. 10/10.”
About: I’m lucky enough to have an open schedule, which means your pet will get my full, undivided attention without being left alone for long stretches of time. I’ve taken care of a little bit of everything - dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs - so I’m really comfortable adapting to whatever unique routine your animal needs. My love playing with animals, chilling with them, and just watching them do what they do. One of my biggest strengths is working with pets who are on the shy or anxious side. I know how stressful it can be for them when their owners are away, so I’m incredibly patient. I know how to read their body language, give them the space they need, and just let them open up to me at their own pace until they feel completely safe. I am currently on summer break from college and take care of my own dogs at home. I make sure to give them everything they need from walks to play to just sitting around together. My main priority is keeping a constant eye on your pet and sticking as close to their normal routine as possible. Whether I'm staying at your place or visiting, your pet won't be left alone for long stretches, which really helps prevent separation anxiety. While I'm in a client's home, I will treat it with total respect and keep everything secure. I will make sure that all doors and gates are locked securely every time I leave your home, and I always keep dogs on a leash during walks. Because I have experience with everything from energetic dogs and cats to smaller pets like guinea pigs, I’m very aware of safety and choking hazards, like making sure small items or dangerous foods are out of reach.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of every breed, size, and energy level—from anxious rescues to giant goofballs. As a current volunteer at ACCT Philly, I work hands-on with all types of dogs daily, focusing on leash control, confidence-building, and reading body language. Friends and neighbors regularly trust me for overnight stays, multi-dog households, and high-energy pups because I stay calm, structured, and patient no matter what. I’m comfortable with puppy routines, senior care, and special diets, and I always make sure every dog gets the perfect mix of play, structure, and comfort. Whether it’s a jog around the block, a slow senior stroll, or bedtime snuggles—I tailor my care to your dog’s needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan. Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine. My schedule is flexible for walks, drop-ins, or overnights, and I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, playtime, and care. Whether it’s early mornings, lunch breaks, or evening cuddles, I’ll build my day around your pet’s routine. Safety and comfort always come first. In my home or yours, I make sure pets have a calm, clean, and secure space to relax and play. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, medications, and boundaries—so they feel right at home. I keep a close eye on body language and behavior to ensure they’re happy and stress-free, and I always send photo updates so you can see how well they’re doing. Whether it’s cats curling up for quiet time or dogs burning off energy, I create a safe, loving environment built on trust.
About: I have always had a dog in my life for 20 years, and it makes me so happy! I love meeting new dogs and being able to play and care for them. I’m currently working part-time while also taking summer college courses, but have some extra time that I would love to dedicate to a loving dog! I like to take my own dog on walks (even though he chooses the path) and love to give him baths. I’ve taken care of other dogs before through friends.
About: I’m the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family! I’m a proud mom to a 20-year-old cat and an aunt to many other beloved pets. I love going on long walks, so let me know if your pet would enjoy coming along! I work from home and make my own schedule so I have tons of flexibility. I like to take long walks in the evenings and would love some company! I have a 20 year old kitten named Wilbur who is the sweetest. I understand that pets are more than just pets, they’re part of the family, and deserve to be treated as a family member. I also understand the importance of being reassured your baby is loved and well taken care of in your absence and will follow all provided instructions and guidance.
“Brittney truly is the best! Extremely reliable and flexible. I've had to switch on her so many times because of my schedule and she's always so accommodating. Super plus is that the dogs love her. Any instructions I send her she follows with no hesitation. Super friendly and you can tell she loves what she does. Thanks Brittney for always keeping me at ease.”
About: I have cared for pets ranging from a sleepy older cat to the more energetic dog. I am able to give medications and/or take your pet to the vet when needed. I love playing with dogs and cats to ensure that they get the socialization they need. I can personalize the care given to your pet, just let me know what you need! I work from home so am available to tend to your pet as often as needed. I am available all day to care for your pet(s). I will arrange my time around your pet's schedule as I only accept one pet (or two/three pets if they are part of the same family) at a time. I live on a large farm and will be able to take your pet for long walks if they are boarding or needing day care. I also have access to a fenced in area of the yard so that your pet can run around safely. I also have a friendly cat that warms up to other cats and dogs after a short getting to know you period.
About: Hi, I’m Katelynn! I have 2 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant, where I became comfortable caring for animals with patience, attention to detail, and a calm approach. I also regularly watched my neighbor’s dog from 2015 until 2018, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping a pet safe and comfortable while their owner was away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m gentle, reliable, and attentive, especially with pets who may be nervous, shy, older, or need a little extra patience. I will treat your pet like part of the family and keep you updated so you know they are safe and cared for. I have plenty of availability for pet care, especially during the summer. Since I do not drive, I am best suited for local walks, nearby drop-in visits, or care where the owner can handle drop-off and pick-up. I’m happy to spend time playing, walking, feeding, and keeping your pet company while following their normal routine as closely as possible. Alternatively, my husband can drop me off and pick me up. I care for pets with patience, attention, and respect for their routine. I have 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant, so I understand how important safety, clear instructions, and careful observation are. I also regularly watched my neighbor’s dog from 2015 to 2018, which gave me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. In a client’s home, I will follow all instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications if discussed ahead of time, and household rules. I will make sure doors, gates, leashes, and crates are secure, and I will send updates so owners know their pet is safe and cared for. I’m especially patient with shy, nervous, senior, or sensitive pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind from old to young since I was little. I have watched family dogs, and friends dogs both in the comfort of my own home and gone to spend the night at their houses. I’ve also trained my own dogs throughout the years, including potty training, simple commands, and crate training. I am currently working part-time at my job and stay home with my son. I am mainly home except for the weekends. And on the weekends, my husband will be home to help out. I have a fenced in yard and currently only have one dog of my own who is super friendly and very energetic so she will exercise your dog in our front yard. She loves to cuddle and she is crate trained. I also have an extra crate in case dogs need to be created for whatever reason.
“Excellent with my dog. He loves her and cries from excitement when he sees her. She is very good at letting him do the things he enjoys. Cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you Loren!!!!”
About: Hi! I’m 30 and I have been pet sitting on Rover for over three years for dogs and cats of all ages and needs. I may be petite but don’t be fooled! I am an aerialist in my spare time, and so I have a lot of upper body strength and can handle large, strong dogs as well as high energy dogs who need long, brisk walks for proper exercise. I have experience with older pets and am comfortable administering medications. Let me know if you would like me to water plants, turn on/off lights, or any other tasks while you are away. Whether you need an extra walk for a feisty pooch, care during your family vacation, or long-term assistance, feel free to contact me for a meet and greet. During COVID era, your comfort is of upmost importance. Please let me know if you would like me to wear a mask indoors, wipe down door handles, etc. to ensure your safety. I work full-time in the animal welfare field, so I am most available for weekend and long weekend pet sitting. I can do occasional weekday walks as well. Safety and mental wellbeing are my top priorities. I always make sure dogs are leashed before going out the door and avoid other dogs and people during walks, just to be safe.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was born. I love how no two pets are the same. I treat every pet like they’re my own fur babies. I have many years of experience in both small and large animal care. I work as a veterinary technician. I’m comfortable giving your fur baby daily medication if needed. I am very flexible with timing on when your fur baby needs attention and lovings. I will work my daily tasks around your pets schedule! Everything will be followed what you tell me how to care for your fur baby. I will always give them a lot of attention and lovings.
About: Hello! I’m an experienced pet lover with over 5 years on Rover, caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. As the proud owner of two Great Danes, ages 1 and 2, I understand the needs of larger breeds, from daily exercise to specialized care. My experience with these gentle giants has taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to handle big personalities with ease. Whether you need someone to walk, feed, or simply keep your pets company, you can trust me to provide the care and love they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I work at schools and have a lot of flexibility in the summer to meet your needs. My experience with large breeds means I’m comfortable managing pets of all sizes, ensuring they get the exercise, companionship, and attention they need. I look forward to giving your pets a safe and caring environment while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities during every visit, walk and stay. When caring for pets in their own homes, I ensure a safe environment by following your routines and respecting any special instructions you provide. I take precautions to make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure, and I always keep your pet on a leash during walks, using proper harnesses or collars to prevent accidents. I’m also vigilant about their surroundings to avoid any risks, such as unsafe plants, other animals, or traffic. Building trust with you and your pet is essential. I keep communication open, sharing updates and photos so you know how things are going and feel reassured that your pet is in good hands. With my flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate time and attention to meet each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for even when you’re not there.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and knew I always wanted to work with them. I’ve always cared for the pets I had growing up which included dogs, cats and guinea pigs! I then started watching friends and family members dogs and cats when they were away. One of my first jobs was at a boarding facility where I cared for and walked dogs! I have a flexible schedule due to the fact that I am home everyday caring for my 2 year old son! I would love to bring him along for walks and drop ins! My dog gets walked everyday followed by a relaxing rest stop by the river in our backyard! We love to be outdoors as much as possible!

“6 stars needs to be on the scale. Been using rover for a while, Scott and his family are friendly, easy going and a joy to “work” with. Welcoming to are puppy (at the time of) Cheesy. He was transparent the entire stay with picture dumps and updates daily. Two thumbs up”
“Very friendly and communicative. Sent photo updates. Very quick response time. Oakley seemed so happy to be there and got along with her family well. My dog had an uncharacteristic accident (pee) over night and Ana handled this without issue or frustration. She helped Oakleys settle in and feel comfortable so this didn’t happen again!”
“Jason sent lots of pictures and videos during Gemma's stay. She seemed to be having the time of her life at "camp;" swimming in the in-ground pool, and making new friends. Jason seemed to be very attentive to Gemma. She's exhausted from her week of fun!”
“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”
“Our two large dogs had a great time with Heather and came back so well-rested and happy! We really enjoyed receiving photos during their stay, seeing how much fun they had! Thank you, Heather!”
“Ivy took wonderful care of my energetic, large breed, 1 year old puppy. She sent TONS of photos and updates. He was so happy there- he hardly wanted to come home 🤣 Her dog is a great playmate for other pups, too. ❤️”
“Shantel pulled through for us on a last minute boarding. Kai seemed to enjoy her best life at Shantell's based on the pictures we got back. Great communication, would choose her again if we needed to.”
“Gabriela took such amazing care of our dog this weekend. She kept us up to date with plenty of pictures and updates the entire time she had Hope. Can’t wait till out next visit to her and her amazing family. Highly recommended sitter. Would absolutely rebook the next time we need someone to take care of Hope. Wonderful sitter and took simply the best care of our dog while we were away.”
“Seb was great with Prince. He kept me updated and took plenty of pictures. He was very patient with Prince too since he still has accidents every now and again. I would absolutely book with Seb again!”
“Marleny was AWESOME! We met with her at her home with our pup before we committed to using her. Our puppy, after a little apprehension, almost immediately ran and played with her dogs and we had a hard time getting him to leave......typical child LOL. She was flexible with the date that we needed her for and we were much appreciative. She sent pics or videos nearly everyday and also continued him on some meds he was finishing at the time.”
“I hesitate to leave this review for selfish reasons but gatekeeping is not an option. It was clear from the moment we walked in their beautiful home our dog would be well care for by Kevin and Natalie. Teddy is an old boy with anxiety but fit right in without issue. The pictures and updates helped us enjoy our vacation. We will absolutely book again. Thank you both!”
“Jim provided excellent care for my pup. I really appreciated his availability when my previous boarding arrangements fell through at the last minute. My pup is a finicky eater and Jim kept me up to date on her feeding habits and asked permission to add tempting meat to her food to entice her. She loves to run at full speed, so his fenced property was ideal. Jim also communicated with me as well as provided plenty of photos during her stay and a video of her socializing at playtime. Thank you Jim!”
“Trista has been incredibly helpful and flexible, she was helpful when I had a last minute need and was very understanding and open. She makes the stays easy and my dog was very happy staying with her.”
“Ryan was overall easy going and a true dog lover from how he interacted with Abu from the very beginning. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Abu was with great company. From the conversations and picture I know my pup was in great hand, definitely will be contacting ryan for any future assistance with Abu. My pup came back tired from playing outside and full of energy so I know he was in a loving home with great pups too. From the very beginning I knew Ryan was a perfect fit for Abu and his needs.”
“Gisselle and her family are the perfect family for our dogs to stay with while away from home!! They are loving, patient, attentive and absolutely spoiled our two Shetland Sheepdogs!! Gisselle sent photos as well as updates throughout the days we were away. The images showed my two pups comfortable, happy and having a blast playing the day away!! I could not be more grateful for her care in every way. Gisselle is my “go to family” now for all our dog care needs. She is the absolute best!!”
“Michele is fantastic! My dogs were at her place for the Fourth of July and she took the best care of them and tailored their care to exactly what they need during the holiday weekend. She loves what she does and it absolutely shows. I would recommend her to anyone and look forward to using her for our future trips. Thank you Michele and family!”
“I had an amazing experience with Alaine as my dog sitter. She was highly responsive, providing daily photos and a detailed "report card" summarizing Brizo's activities and well-being during the four-night stay. Alaine took exceptional care of Brizo, and her own dog, Pasta, was a wonderful host too. I highly recommend Alaine for her attentiveness, communication, and genuine love for animals. Brizo can't wait to visit again soon!”
“Abner was great! We just moved to the state and had no clue where to start with a dog sitter, but we felt comfortable leaving our pup with Abner very quickly. Very kind, and he clearly loves dogs. Our girl is pretty nervous but he took the time to make sure she was comfortable and she ended up having a great time.”
“Augie had a fabulous time with Heaven and her dogs and the others. It is a wonderful setting down a street with few houses and lots of property. Heaven is enjoyable and easy to work with as well as flexible and easy going. Augie will be back soon!”
“Kevin and his wife were great; able to take my 2 dogs at short notice . kept me advised how they were doing and flexible to work with my odd schedule. would recommend them to others.”
