“Sujanna is an amazing person clearly cut out for the job that she does. She took amazing care of Rebel and was very communicative with Rebel’s daily activities. She sent pictures and videos detailing day’s events and best of all, Rebel was clearly so happy with her. I will not look elsewhere if I need a sitter again. Thank you so much Sujanna.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.
“Britney was fantastic with our girl, Sydney (14 month old F Cavapoo.) I was able to book her stay with short notice and Britney was very quick to respond, both during the booking & the stay. Sydney is a velcro dog & received all the snuggles she is used to getting at home while staying with Britney & her family.”
“Ligiane was a great sitter. It was like my dog was on vacation having more fun than me on my vacation. Bella got along great with her dog, which is great for her first time staying with another dog. She got daily walks and playtime. She came back happy and relaxed.”
“We are first time dog owners and we brought our 11 month old German Shepherd to Morgan after seeing her rave reviews. We can verify she deserves all five stars - she was able to quickly interpret our puppy’s behavior and gave us tips for after the boarding experience. We were nervous as well since this was the first time our dog would be away from us for an extended amount of time but Morgan made us feel at ease with her professional veterinary experience and ability to help along our puppy’s socialization. We boarded our dog for 6 days and Morgan was very communicative during the stay, with quick response to our messages. We highly recommend her and plan to use her again.”
“The absolute Best. Best Option, Best Choice, Best People. This is the first time we’ve left our dog with someone outside family, and we couldn’t have found a better option. Rhea and Michael really care.. they have a sincere hospitable and loving way about them that makes them the best choice. They care not only for the pup, but also for the families. A constant flow of photos and texts makes us feel so at ease, while being away. Truly the best !!!”
“Jennifer was great! She was very thoughtful and caring with Charlie! She kept us updated and shared lovely pictures. Charlie looked happy and loved his time with new friends.”
“This was our first time leaving Hazel & Audrey. Teresa was wonderful and so accommodating to all our puppies needs. She kept us updated on their visit with great pictures that showed they were happy and well taken care of. Her home is a great setup for taking care of dogs- especially Doxies with little legs. It made our family trip more enjoyable knowing our pups were enjoying themselves as well. Thank you Teresa.”
“We had such a great experience with Nataliya and her family. They took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time, which I really appreciated. When my dog wasn’t feeling well, they were especially attentive and caring, and it honestly gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell they truly care and treated my baby like part of their family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable care.”
“Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊”
“Chelsea was great with our 8 month old pup! He played well with her dog and she kept us updating with pictures throughout the night. Highly recommended Chelsea for anyone looking to dog sitting services.”
“This was our dog's first time away from us. Dawn went above & beyond to ensure that Zoey & Belle felt right at home and to keep us updated on how they were doing. Her pics & comments were priceless. Dawn is attuned to the individual needs & likes of her furry guests. She is a true animal lover!”
“Michele is a wonderful sitter! I’ve used her several times to watch my dog, and each experience has been smooth and completely hassle-free. She’s very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always willing to work with my schedule. She carefully follows all of my instructions and consistently sends pictures and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which gives me great peace of mind. I always feel reassured leaving my dog in her care, and I’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future.”

“Sarah was wonderful with my cat! She was attentive and took notes, which was a great comfort, and sent me numerous photos with each visit along with an update on my fur baby.

“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”
“Thank you, Joe, for going above and beyond on this last visit and finding a creative way for Sebastian to take his meds. It was a life saver in the moment. I appreciate you!”

I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring animal sitter.”
“Christine was a fantastic sitter that anyone would be lucky to have take care of their pets.

“Our little golden Havanese had a wonderful time with Irem and her husband! She spent the day with them on Friday, and was eager to go back the next day. She made a new friend, a beautiful golden retriever, who she enjoyed spending the day with. Irem gave her plenty of snuggle time, and she seemed perfectly content both days when we picked her up. This was our first Rover experience, and we were grateful it went so well! Thank you, Irem!”
About: My 10 year old and I love it when your babies enjoy a swim in the lake in the summer and/or a walk around the lake with us. Rest assured your fur babies will be happy and healthy while you are away. Our standard poodle is my daughter’s best girl. We go for walks at least once per day around the lake (1.6 miles around). Sometimes we even go more than once and we all get a good workout in! We usually care for dogs here at home, however, I am open to caring for your fur babies at your house, if you prefer! Let me know!
“Sriram & Rekha S. was super sweet and attentive to Ace. He communicated with me during the whole day. And contacted me as well once my sister picked up Ace. Will be booking with him again!”

“Wenxin is the best! We’ve had her watch our dog for a few days at a time and also for doggy day care, we will keep coming back to her. She sends us great update photos and our dog, Ozzy, comes back tired and happy!”
“Dawn and Lola welcomed Pebbles with such kindness. Dawn was so pleasant and concerning to Pebbles needs. Pebbles has separation anxiety and Dawn comforted her while I was leaving. The many photos I received made me feel so comfortable that Pebbles was having a great time and in great hands!😊.”

I always prioritize safe and positive introductions to ensure everyone gets along well.
“Finding Morgan was a true blessing! I recently adopted my first puppy and chose Morgan for doggie daycare professional needs. To my surprise, Morgan correctly identified that my puppy had a UTI! My vet examined her and confirmed that she was correct!!! I truly do not have the words to thank her for saving my pup from a painful illness that I had no idea about. Morgan is loving, my puppy loves visiting and she is truly committed to her clients. This is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend her and will absolutely use her again in the future.”

“We were in a pinch and needed to figure out what to do with our dog when an out of town wake and a funeral came up suddenly. We found Jonathan on the Rover map in the area we were staying. He responded promptly and we set up the times we needed daycare. He was flexible as our drop-off and pickup times had to be adjusted. Took care of our dog and - very telling, I think - she seemed fine with going back for the second day. She also seemed fine, looked pretty relaxed when we picked her up,”

“Irem, Walked my pup this week while he was recovering from neutering and she was wonderful. She took good care to keep him from over exerting himself and was patient with him.”
“Alexandra is incredibly kind and gentle. She was so patient with our Lani, who’s scared of just about everything, and really respected our request to keep greetings and goodbyes calm and low-key to help prevent separation anxiety. She takes her time, used the treats for getting boots on!) And gives Lani the full walk time without rushing. We feel very comfortable with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive walker.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.
“Ligiane was a great sitter. It was like my dog was on vacation having more fun than me on my vacation. Bella got along great with her dog, which is great for her first time staying with another dog. She got daily walks and playtime. She came back happy and relaxed.”
“We are first time dog owners and we brought our 11 month old German Shepherd to Morgan after seeing her rave reviews. We can verify she deserves all five stars - she was able to quickly interpret our puppy’s behavior and gave us tips for after the boarding experience. We were nervous as well since this was the first time our dog would be away from us for an extended amount of time but Morgan made us feel at ease with her professional veterinary experience and ability to help along our puppy’s socialization. We boarded our dog for 6 days and Morgan was very communicative during the stay, with quick response to our messages. We highly recommend her and plan to use her again.”
“Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊”
“Chelsea was great with our 8 month old pup! He played well with her dog and she kept us updating with pictures throughout the night. Highly recommended Chelsea for anyone looking to dog sitting services.”
“Michele is a wonderful sitter! I’ve used her several times to watch my dog, and each experience has been smooth and completely hassle-free. She’s very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always willing to work with my schedule. She carefully follows all of my instructions and consistently sends pictures and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which gives me great peace of mind. I always feel reassured leaving my dog in her care, and I’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future.”
“Tricia was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Lani! This was our first time booking with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She clearly has excellent knowledge when it comes to dog introductions and made sure Lani felt comfortable from the start. Her yard is fantastic, spacious, super clean, and thoughtfully designed with a shaded sand pit and a dig zone that Lani loved exploring. We also really appreciated the photo updates throughout the stay! When our flight was unexpectedly canceled, Tricia was incredibly accommodating, even on such short notice. That flexibility meant so much to us. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”
“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”
“Bobbi was absolutely fabulous, she looked after our bengal Croquette really well! Our little kitty came back home happy and healthy. We will definitely book Bobbi again and I highly recommend her services :)”
“This was my first time using DogVacay.com. Kristin was just phenomenal. I went to Texas for 2 weeks and left my puppy Brody with her. She sent me pictures and even videos along with status updates every single day. Could not be happier, highly recommend her!”
“Absolutely exceptional care for my pup. She’s shy and very attached to us, but it was clear from the pics, videos, and at pickup that she felt right at home. She was well taken care of and I loved getting daily updates. Will definitely use them again.”
“Jonathan provided great service. My German Shepard stayed with Jonathan for 6 nights. I also received updates about my dog during those 6 days. Thank you Jonathan!”
“Erin was great with our three dogs. It was their first time staying at someone else's house and they were acting up. She was willing to bring them back to my house and watch them there. I love that she was flexible and honest. She took great care of them. I was over three hours away and was so glad that she was able to come up with plan B and execute it. She was so flexible, accommodating and friendly. She made me feel at ease. We would definitely book her again.”
“Mirasol is the best! They had a big fenced yard and a pool. The dogs were pampered and they had so much fun. One of my dogs even cried when Mirasol left after dropping them off. I got videos/photos and updates of our dogs while we were on vacation. I highly recommend them. Now I have a peace of mind knowing my dogs have a great place to stay when we travel.”
