Another excellent stay with Maisha. Bentley always has a great experience and enjoys playing and making new friends. She provides excellent care and keeps me consistently updated with photos, which I truly appreciate. I also value the way she treats Bentley with the same care and attention as her own. Thank you again!

Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!

Booked a last min 5 night stay for my senior golden retriever! I sent an essay of instruction and Starry + Gio did an amazing job taking care of him. It was literally the coldest winter/weekend in NJ/NY area in the past 10+ years. They kept me updated constantly with walk pics throughout the day and pics of him in general! I was very happy to know that their dog (Walnut) is a sweetheart and gets along well with my dog! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and responsible couple to dog sit. Will definitely use again. Thank you!

Here's a shorter version: --- I recently booked Angela for two nights, and I'm thrilled with the care my dog received. Angela provided regular updates with photos and videos, ensuring my peace of mind. My shy dog quickly warmed up to them, and all his dietary and exercise needs were perfectly met. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house. Highly recommend Angela for reliable and loving pet care.

Rochelle was wonderful for my kitty Zeno. He seemed sad to leave ?. She sent photos and gave him his daily vitamins, and even bought new food for him when he started turning down his own food. The environment seemed calm and quiet for my very timid old cat. She cleaned out his litter and food dish and packed up his things when it was time to go. I would definitely trust her with my kitty again!

Helped out in a last minute notice in a whole different state and treated pepperoni like he was their own 🥰 I can honestly say I got super lucky with them! I booked a trip to Nj to see the American Dream mall and take my son to Nickelodeon amusement park for his 2nd bday booked a hotel that accepted dogs but could not accept my dog barking and he barked when he was alone he had a bit of separation anxiety. Which I doubt it was as bad as the hotel made it but thanks god for Hsin & Paul! They were able to take pepperoni on last minute.

Sabrina was amazing with magnolia! I’ve had unfavorable Rover experiences in the past so planned ahead and did a meet and greet. I could tell instantly how warm and genuine she is- she even read up on the notes before that meeting. I felt super comfortable heading into our weekend away. During the weekend she gave several updates and was generous with photos/ videos all descriptive of magnolias characteristics. I knew Magnolia loved her stay with Sabrina when I picked her up and she kept looking back for her to walk away with us! I will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s free!

I’ve raised 3 beautiful pit bulls and lab mix while also having the opportunity to dog sit friends pets from Golden Retriever’s to Yorkies. I am currently going to school part-time so I have plenty of free time to watch over your pets! My schedule is very flexible and easy to work around. I have a fenced backyard as well as front yard. I love playing fetch with my dog while also playing tag. After tricks, she loves receiving her treats.

About: I've been pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. Apart from my current two dogs, I've also raised three previous dogs from being a puppy into their senior years. I'm a firm believer in positive reinforcement training, every dog deserves the utmost love and care. I own my own business and set my own hours so I can accommodate anyone's pet care needs. I'm fine with short notice requests and can work with anyone's schedule! I have two dogs that can run around freely in my fenced in backyard. They each get at least two solo shorter walks (about 15 minutes around the park we live next to) per day and an additional longer walk (around 45-60 minutes) once my girlfriend gets home from work where we walk both together.

I can medicate animals effectively and identify and alert the pet parent to potential problems before they become bigger issues. I have a degree in animal behavior and physiology, I've worked at an animal shelter, and I'd love nothing more than to get to know your pet and spend some time with them! I've got a cat and a dog myself, Chipotle and Guacamole, and they are incredible. I am doing this as a second source of income, so I have plenty of time devoted to playing with your pups or kicking it with your kitties! I will do whatever you feel is best for your pet. Your house, your rules. Obviously the pet's safety is paramount, but after that, youre the boss, boss!

I’ve owned two cats myself and have experience caring for different personalities, from playful and social cats to shy and independent ones.

I truly enjoy being around cats and treat every one with love and care.

About: ​Pet care is my world, and I’ve spent years getting to know dogs and cats of all kinds. From bouncy puppies 🐶 learning their manners to wise seniors 🐕‍🦺 who just need a gentle stroll and some fresh water, I’m here to make sure their routine stays perfect while you're away. ​🛡️ My "Safety First" Approach: ​I’m not just there for a walk; I’m there to be your pet’s guardian. I’m the sitter who: ​Double-checks that harnesses are secure and doors are locked. 🔒 ​Scans the path ahead on walks to avoid reactive dogs or hazards. ⚠️ ​Ensures water bowls are topped off and paws are clean when we get back. 🐾 ​✨ Real Care for Real Pets: ​I specialize in Drop-Ins and Walks where your pet's well-being is the priority. Whether it’s a high-energy power walk or a quiet backyard bathroom break for a senior, I adapt to what your pet needs that day. I’m especially patient with rescues or shy pups who need a little extra time to feel safe. 💜 ​📸 Simple, Honest Updates: ​I like to keep my focus on your pet rather than my phone screen, but I’ll always send you the essentials! You can expect: ​A quick "Pupdate" to let you know they pottied and played. ​A cute photo (or two!) of our visit. 🤳 ​Peace of mind knowing your home is secure and your pet is loved. ​My promise is simple: To treat your pets like my own family, keep them safe, and bring a bit of extra joy to their day every time I visit. ✨ ​⏰ Dedicated Full-Time Professional Care ​Because pet care is my full-time career, your pets aren't a "side gig" squeezed between other shifts. They are my entire schedule! 🐾 ​🗓️ Flexibility That Fits Your Life: ​I’ve designed my day to be there when you can’t be. Whether your boss called a last-minute meeting or you just want your pup to have a consistent midday break, I’ve got you covered: ​Early Birds & Night Owls: From sunrise stretches 🌅 to evening tuck-ins 🌙, I'm on the road and ready. ​Midday Energy Bursts: Perfect for puppies or high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam while you’re at work. ⚡ ​Consistent & Dependable: Because this is my job, you don’t have to worry about me "calling out" for an office conflict. I am there, rain or shine. ☔️☀️ ​🏠 Reliability You Can Trust: ​Being a full-time sitter means I take my reputation seriously. I keep my route tight so I can be on time and fully present. When I’m at your house, my phone stays in my pocket (except for that cute photo!) so your pet gets 100% of my attention. 🛡️✨ ​🛡️ Your Home & Pet: Safe, Secure, & Respected ​I don’t just "watch" pets, I protect them. Whether I’m entering your home for a drop-in or heading out for a walk, I operate with a safety-first checklist to ensure total peace of mind for you. 🏠✨ ​🚧 Out on the Walk: ​The "Double-Check" Rule: I always verify harness/collar tightness before we step outside. 🐕‍🦺 ​Awareness Training: I’m constantly scanning the environment for other dogs, reactive triggers, or unsafe debris on the sidewalk. ⚠️ ​Temperature Checks: In summer or winter, I check pavement heat or ice levels to keep those paws protected. 🐾🌡️ ​🔒 Inside Your Home: ​Security Expert: I am hyper-diligent about locking doors, arming alarms, and ensuring gates are clicked shut. Your home’s security is as important as your pet's. 🔑 ​Environment Scan: I check for hazards, empty water bowls, or anything your pet shouldn't be chewing on before I leave. 🚫🦴 ​The Little Things: I make sure the "routine" is followed, whether that’s a specific treat spot, a white noise machine, or a favorite blanket. ​💜 The Professional Promise: ​I treat your space with the highest level of respect. I’m a quiet, clean, and reliable presence. My goal is for you to walk through your door and feel like I was never there except for the fact that your pet is happy, calm, and well-cared for! 🏠💫

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and I find so much joy in it. I’ve had a cocker spaniel for my entire life and love to be in the presence of them! Im currently working as a freelance designer remotely so I will have plenty of time to take care and play with your pups. I am available for overnight boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2 pm. I live in an apartment complex but there is plenty of space to walk the pups as needed outside as well as a dog park in the complex.

This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.

About: My love for dogs started growing up with dogs in my family. Now with 10 years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I'm passionate about providing reliable, attentive care for your furry friends. I've worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels—from energetic young pups to calm senior dogs. I understand each dog is unique, and I tailor my approach to match their individual personality and needs. Whether it's a quick walk around the neighborhood or a full day of companionship, you can trust that your dog is in safe, loving hands. Pet care is a priority in my routine. I'm flexible with scheduling and available for weekday walks, weekend visits, and overnight care. Whether your pup needs a quick midday walk or full-day companionship, I work around your family's needs. I'm committed to consistency so your dog knows what to expect. Safety is my top priority. For walks, I use quality leashes and stay alert in all conditions. In your home, I respect your space and follow all your guidelines. I provide fresh water, monitor behavior for any concerns, and maintain a calm, secure environment. I'm experienced handling anxious or energetic dogs and always ensure their comfort and safety.

About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.

Kathy responded to our initial request incredibly quickly and couldn’t have been kinder. From the start, she was attentive and understanding—especially important for us since our dog can be a bit anxious in new environments. During our first drop-off, she took the time to help him feel comfortable and safe, and we were relieved to hear that he had settled down shortly after we left. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’re so happy to have found someone we trust, and we’ve already booked with her again for an upcoming multi-night stay. Highly recommended!

About: Hi! I’m Tina, a lifelong dog lover who truly believes pets are family. Growing up, I had a Pekingese who was part of our family for 16 wonderful years, she was my best friend, and I was involved in her care every single day, from walks and feeding to just spending time together. In high school I also helped walk and care for dogs in my neighborhood, which gave me experience with all kinds of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I’m not a professionally trained handler, but I think honesty goes a long way when someone is trusting you with their dog. What I can genuinely offer is patience, attentiveness, and a lot of love. I’m actually looking into additional pet care training because this is something I really enjoy and want to keep growing in. I work fully remotely, which means I can provide lots of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of opportunities for interaction and care. I currently live in a pet-friendly apartment community with a dog park located downstairs, and I also have reliable transportation to take dogs to nearby parks and walking areas if appropriate. A little about me: I studied Public Health during both my undergraduate and graduate education, earned my Master’s degree in Global Health from Harvard , and currently work in the health industry. That sound unrelated, but honestly it’s shaped how I approach responsibility: carefully, consistently, and always with the other person’s (or pup’s!) needs in mind. I know how much it means to find someone you can really trust with your dog. I’d love to meet you and your pup and go from there! I am available Monday through Friday from 9am to 9pm, and on weekends from 10am to 12pm and 3pm to 5pm. I'm happy to accommodate special needs outside of these hours to ensure your pet receives the best care possible! In my home, I can comfortably accommodate small dogs/medium size dogs ensuring they have a safe, clean, and loving environment. I provide plenty of playtime, regular walks, and constant supervision to make sure your pet feels secure and happy.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and truly love being around animals. I grew up with a variety of pets including dogs, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, and tortoises. I’ve also fostered dogs and volunteered at animal shelters, which has given me hands-on experience with different temperaments, routines, and behaviors. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes as well as cats, and I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs. I take one client at a time, so your pet receives my full attention in a calm, home like environment. Since I work from home, I’m able to be present throughout the day and ensure pets are rarely left alone. Whether it’s an energetic pup or a more anxious dog who needs extra care, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home, which allows me to be flexible and present throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide: - Regular walks throughout the day - Plenty of supervision and companionship - Flexible drop-off and pick-up times (with notice) - Availability for weekends and extended stays Because I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and get consistent attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and create a calm, safe environment for every pet. I don’t currently have any pets at home, which makes it ideal for dogs who prefer a quieter space or don’t get along well with other animals. I closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions. I’m also comfortable administering medications if needed. I provide regular updates with photos/videos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including a special love for senior animals. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with special needs and I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they need—whether that means slower routines, medication support, or just a calm, comforting presence. I’m also experienced with more independent or “spicy” cats and dogs through my time volunteering at a local animal shelter, and know how to read their boundaries, build trust at their pace, and make them feel safe without forcing interaction. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time and intentionally build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. This allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I also like to set clear expectations with owners ahead of each visit so I can make sure I’m meeting their preferences and providing consistent, reliable care. I am happy to accommodate all requests according to individual pet's needs after a conversation with the pet owner! Any questions or requests, feel free to reach out :)

About: I have over 9 years of experience caring for pets, starting in middle school with puppies and expanding to regular pet sitting for friends and community members. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including energetic puppies and adult dogs, as well as multiple cats at a time, even for stays lasting several days or over a week. I have a small dog of my own, so I understand the importance of consistent routines, attention, and creating a safe, loving environment. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and making sure every pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long stay, or daily care, I’m committed to providing professional and loving support for your furry family members. I offer reliable pet care for dogs and cats, including walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. • Dog Walking / Daytime Care: Weekdays 7–10 AM & 1–5 PM | Weekends 9 AM–5 PM • Cat Sitting: Prefer to care for cats in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable. Visits are flexible 10 AM–6 PM, including multi-day stays. Experienced with multiple cats at a time and keeping routines consistent. • Overnight / Boarding: Available for dogs in my home or your home (limited spots—please inquire) I aim to keep every pet on a consistent routine, providing love, attention, and professional care while their owners are away. I’m happy to work with you to accommodate specific scheduling needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a safe, clean, and loving environment. For dogs in my care, I make sure their home is secure, toys and food are organized, and I supervise all playtime and walks. For cats, I prefer in-home visits to keep them in their familiar, comfortable environment, minimizing stress and maintaining their routine. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, from feeding and medication schedules to exercise and playtime. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, and I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for at all times.

About: I’m big on personalized, one-on-one care and giving each pet the attention they deserve. I’m very attentive, detail-oriented, and observant of body language, so I try to understand each pet’s comfort level, energy, and routine rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. As a dog owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Because my work is contract-based, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the week for pet care. I love animals, and as a dog parent myself, I’ve kept my availability open during times I know are especially helpful for other pet parents. I’ve built walks and drop-in visits into my routine and like to keep my schedule manageable so I can be reliable, attentive, and fully present with each pet. I know how important trust is when someone is coming into your home and caring for your pet. I’m respectful of your space, attentive to instructions, and very mindful of a pet’s body language and comfort level. I aim to provide thoughtful, reliable care so your pet feels safe and well looked after in their familiar environment. Happy to offer a free meet and greet beforehand so you and your pet can feel comfortable and see if it’s a good fit.

About: Hello! My name is Emma, and I’m a 24-year-old dog lover and dog mom to my dog, Marcus. Dogs have been a huge part of my life since high school, and over the years I’ve cared for both my own pets and dogs belonging to friends and family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I also helped care for my family’s German Shepherd, Kookie, who taught me so much about the love, loyalty, and responsibility that come with being a pet owner. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves individualized care. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet the same way I treat my own dog—with patience, kindness, love, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member so I’ll do everything in my power to provide a safe, positive, and caring experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I currently work part-time as a physical therapy aide and attend school part-time in the evenings, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, doggy day care, and house sitting in your home. My class schedule is Monday and Tuesday evenings, and I work Wednesday and Thursday afternoons as well as Saturday mornings, which means I am available during many daytime hours and can provide reliable care before and after my commitments. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I do my best to follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I am dependable, communicative, and happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel connected to your furry family member while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, companionship during the day, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and any special needs they may have. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both small and large breeds. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to ensure your dog’s safety and comfort at all times. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would want for my own. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: My love for dogs started growing up with dogs in my family. Now with 10 years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I'm passionate about providing reliable, attentive care for your furry friends. I've worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels—from energetic young pups to calm senior dogs. I understand each dog is unique, and I tailor my approach to match their individual personality and needs. Whether it's a quick walk around the neighborhood or a full day of companionship, you can trust that your dog is in safe, loving hands. Pet care is a priority in my routine. I'm flexible with scheduling and available for weekday walks, weekend visits, and overnight care. Whether your pup needs a quick midday walk or full-day companionship, I work around your family's needs. I'm committed to consistency so your dog knows what to expect. Safety is my top priority. For walks, I use quality leashes and stay alert in all conditions. In your home, I respect your space and follow all your guidelines. I provide fresh water, monitor behavior for any concerns, and maintain a calm, secure environment. I'm experienced handling anxious or energetic dogs and always ensure their comfort and safety.

About: I have lots of love for all types of animals! I know as a pet owner the deep bond and love we have for our fur babies. And sometimes we need someone to trust to take care of our babies while we are away! As a sitter I will ensure you don’t have to worry while you’re away and make sure your pet is happy and receives the best care :) I currently work a part-time job and have room in my schedule to be able to spend time and care for your pet! I’m usually available in the mornings and some days at night. I will ensure your pet is nice and safe so you don’t have to worry at all while you are away! I will be closely monitoring and spending time with them.

About: Hi, I’m Yari! I’ve grown up and cared for pets my entire life. I have a 12-year old beagle-mix pup 🐶 who loves naps and going on sniffaris. 💚 I have cared for dogs and cats with separation anxiety, leash pulling, and reactivity from ages ranging from puppies to seniors. I’m familiar with basic obedience training and positive reinforcement techniques. I’m experienced in administering oral medications and managing complex feeding schedules. 🩷 Every pet gets personalized attention. Whether your dog has high energy and needs a long, brisk walk, or your cat prefers quiet companionship and feather wand playtime, I adapt my visits to your pet's needs. 🩵 For walks: I follow your routines explicitly to ensure a stress-free experience. I avoid off-leash areas, enforce strict safety measures on walks, and practice safe socialization. 🧡 For house-sitting: I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I provide regular updates and photos through the Rover app so you have total peace of mind while you are away. 🤍 CPR & First Aid Certified 💛 Please feel free to ask any questions :) I’m currently working from home part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m available weekdays and weekends during the mornings (10am-12pm), midday (12pm-2pm) and afternoon/night (2pm to 10pm) for walks and drop-ins. I also offer overnight stay both during the weekdays and weekends with dedicated morning and evening pet time. I request a meet and greet before accepting to take care of your pet at your home to align on expectations. In this meet and greet, we would review your pet’s daily routine, dietary needs, medication schedules, and behavioral quirks. Also discuss home access, safety measures, and disclosing security cameras or household staff who may come by during the visit. For house-sitting, I will ensure consistent communication by sending 2-3 updates per day with photos and summaries of how your pet ate, their bathroom habits, and how they behaved. I will also treat your residence with respect.

About: I've cherished the company of pets throughout my entire life, ranging from the tiniest Shih Tzu to the majestic Siberian Huskies. My active lifestyle perfectly aligns with my passion for taking dogs on invigorating walks and spending countless hours engaged in joyful play with them. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I've diligently cared for animals belonging to my uncles, even tending to my neighbor's cherished cats. I've also gone the extra mile to care for Guinea Pigs on behalf of my friends. My affinity for animals knows no bounds, and I genuinely cherish and adore each and every one of them. I’m currently attending school and working part-time so I am mostly only free on the weekends. Most of the time with a heads up I can make availability any day of the week. I live on a completely fenced property and I even have a doggy door for our furry friends. I know a few good doggy parks nearby that I can take our friends to in my car. I will always put the safety of our friendly little buddies first!

Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!

Booked a last min 5 night stay for my senior golden retriever! I sent an essay of instruction and Starry + Gio did an amazing job taking care of him. It was literally the coldest winter/weekend in NJ/NY area in the past 10+ years. They kept me updated constantly with walk pics throughout the day and pics of him in general! I was very happy to know that their dog (Walnut) is a sweetheart and gets along well with my dog! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and responsible couple to dog sit. Will definitely use again. Thank you!

Here's a shorter version: --- I recently booked Angela for two nights, and I'm thrilled with the care my dog received. Angela provided regular updates with photos and videos, ensuring my peace of mind. My shy dog quickly warmed up to them, and all his dietary and exercise needs were perfectly met. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house. Highly recommend Angela for reliable and loving pet care.

Jessica was a great cat sitter for Stanley. She was able to care for him as per my instructions and really reassured me during the stay. Since she has experience with cats, it greatly helped since Stanley can be a little bit difficult at times. If you need a cat sitter I recommend her as she was thoughtful and really helpful for me at a time when I really needed the help.

Helped out in a last minute notice in a whole different state and treated pepperoni like he was their own 🥰 I can honestly say I got super lucky with them! I booked a trip to Nj to see the American Dream mall and take my son to Nickelodeon amusement park for his 2nd bday booked a hotel that accepted dogs but could not accept my dog barking and he barked when he was alone he had a bit of separation anxiety. Which I doubt it was as bad as the hotel made it but thanks god for Hsin & Paul! They were able to take pepperoni on last minute.

From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!

About: I'm a extremely nuturing individual and have had the immense pleasure of caring for pets kittens to seniors/puppies to seniors for over 25 years. I'm very hands on and i very meticulously make sure they are both comforted as well as comfortable. You will find no one more skilled in being your pets caregiver. I'm currently not working! So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups/kittens! I'm available for boarding weekdays all day. And weekends after 3. I can take your pups to a dog park and play as I do not have a fenced yard. Also I have a play room for kitty.

Michael was super attentive to banjo! Great at sending update pictures, asking specific questions about his care, even separating him for meal time + accepting a door dash when he ran out of food. Michael really went the extra mile by keeping banjo for an additional night when my flight was delayed till late. Will book again!

It was clear from the start that she truly loves and cares for animals—just like she does for her own cat and family. We never had to worry for a second, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!

I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.
