“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.”
“Reviews don’t lie! Lynn and her husband Marty took such great care of our Frida. They stepped in last minute after our original sitter canceled just a day before our trip, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. They kept us updated with daily photos, and Frida was clearly SO happy and comfortable. Thank you, Lynn, for all the amazing care and love you gave to Frida—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“This was the first time our 2 girls Juniper and Honey have ever stayed overnight anywhere since we rescued them 5 years ago. We felt confident having Carolina watching our girls. Prior to their stay we did a meet and greet. Carolina has a very calm demeanor, and we were very confident that the girls would be comfortable in her home. She sent us pictures and gave us updates of how they were doing, which was nice. When we picked them up they were very happy, so we'll definitely be using her services again.”
“My dog can be a little tough, but Britany took good care of her! She and Her family made sure that my anxious pup felt comfortable! I’d be happy to have my poodle stay with her again!”
“Jillian and her family are wonderful! Clearly very caring and capable. They provided lots of attention and activities and I honestly think our dog had fun staying with them. Great communication! Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
“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.”
“This was my first time having anyone other than family watching Abby, so I was a bit nervous. But Jonathan took such great care of her; he sent updates every day on how she was adjusting and settling in, which really put my mind at ease. I would absolutely book with him again to watch Abby!”
“Jennifer did an amazing job. We had to pick Aris up early because she wasn't doing well with the adjustment, first time away from us. Jen notified us immediately she was concerned. Jen was professional, caring, and really has the dogs best interest and not the money. Thank you Jen for your honesty and positivity throughout our conversations and experience. I highly recommend Jen for anybody in the area. The Golden Family”
“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.”
“Hao and his lovely family were amazing with our Ripley. He sent pictures and videos throughout her stay so that we can receive updates on how our baby girl was doing. We could tell that she was very well taken care of and he treated her like she was his own. We would highly recommend Hao if you need someone who you can trust with your fur baby. We were very appreciative of his care and how open and communicative he was with us. Hao was also very accommodating! 5 stars all the way!!”
“Michele watched my dog in her home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I loved all the updates and pictures she sent—it really made me feel calm knowing my dog was well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Michele!”
“Amanda and her husband were very warm and friendly. I could tell from when I dropped my dog off that he would be in great hands. Amanda took Oliver on many walks to make sure he kept busy and had a good time. We received many pictures and never had to worry about our pup. We would definitely rebook!”
“Bayan was such a friendly host that communicated extremely well. Super fast replies! Our dog stayed with her for about a week over Christmas break and she continuously gave us photo/video updates. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“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!”
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.
“Erinn was great! She was very quick to respond to all my messages and updated me every day with how things were going with Mochi. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“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.”
“Avital was great my Moonbelle. It was my first time leaving her and was very nervous. Avital reassured me by sending me pictures daily and updating me on her visits. They had a lot of playtime. Thank you so much! Moonbelle and I appreciated having her take care of her while I was away.”
“Sarah was so great with our cats William and Ziggy. They obviously played a lot and enjoyed their time without mom and dad! So grateful for how well she took care of them!”
“Anytime we travel I make sure to book care for our cat with Andrew. He is flexible, always reliable and answers quickly to any questions we have. I love the pictures and updates he sends us to let us know what is going on. I look forward to continuing to book with him whenever we need it!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so I understand that pets are much more than animals—they’re family. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a game of fetch, plenty of cuddles, fresh food and water, or all of the above, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re gone. I currently work full time on a hybrid schedule (Mon- Fri, 9am to 5pm), but have the availability during lunch, after work, and during the weekends to help care for your pet(s). I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I take the time to follow your instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise, crate routines, or any special preferences. I believe communication is important, so I’ll provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re gone. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them on a walk, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own pets.
“We had a great experience with Allie! She took such good care of our cat and kept everything so easy and stress-free. Communication was smooth, and she was always easy to reach. We’re very happy with her service and would definitely recommend her!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Ligiane! Her thoughtfulness and excellent communication skills put me at ease while I was away. They kept me updated regularly and went the extra mile to ensure I felt comfortable as a first time with a cat sitter and my cat was well taken care of. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring animal sitter.”
About: I also work very well with cats, I can care for them, train them, walk them, and even lightly groom them! I am also very skilled at training kittens and I love to play and exercise with them when able. I have several years of experience with a wide range of different types, sizes, personalities, & temperaments and I can also fill in on vacations and tend to small and/or exotic pets, or even just house sit!
“Kristen took wonderful care of my 3 cats while I was away for a long weekend! She updated me and sent photos. One of my cats needed oral medication, which was not a problem for her. I would definitely recommend her to watch over your furry family!”
“Chelsea took great care of our pet while we were away on vacation. She was communicative the entire time and transparent about everything. She provided photos of our pet with each visit. Chelsea was punctual on all her visits with our pet and never late. I would recommend her services to anyone in need of a dog walker.”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs all my life and began working with other families dogs when I was 16. With years of babysitting experience, I’ve developed patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, skills that also make me a great pet sitter! I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies needing training to senior dogs requiring gentle care. Just like with children, I ensure pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or following special routines. My experience has taught me how to handle unexpected situations calmly and responsibly, giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away! I will be starting graduate school in the fall so I will have time before/after/between classes or days off to play with and care for your pup! I am very detail oriented and prefer a descriptive set of instructions to ensure I am giving your animals the best and most consistent care possible!
“Christina was a FANTASTIC cat sitter! She was super communicative, sent many pictures of the kitties, and was very flexible! We had a lot of snow when we were away and she was still able to make it to see the kitties on time, even digging her way in with a shovel! She was very helpful and let us know about the trash needing to be taken out- and she even took it out herself! The cats had an amazing time playing with her. She gave them all of their treats and made sure they were properly fed, watered and brushed. For the first time going away, I felt totally at ease having a cat sitter take care of the cats and house! The cats LOVED her! I will definitely be booking her again in the future! Thank you Christina- you were the best!”
“Having just moved, we were scrambling to find a sitter for our senior cat during the holidays. We were incredibly lucky to have found Joe! Joe went above and beyond to provide comfort, compassion and safety for our pet. He was great with communication, providing updates and photos. Joe also pointed out some things in our new home that we hadn’t noticed and could have potentially been dangerous for our cat. Joe was kind enough to keep our home orderly and clean from the inevitable mess that our furry friends can sometimes make. Thank you Joe for taking such good care of our pet and our home. We would highly recommend him to anyone in the area!”
“Grace is phenomenal!! She took amazing care of my dog Belle and is super responsible! Update pictures and videos throughout the day and always arrived on time for feedings and walks. I'm so happy with my first experience using Rover. I'm so happy Belle was looked after with such great care!”
“Nia was amazing with our Lab Leo. She was very professional and punctual and went above and beyond. Leo is a good judge of character and he took to Nia instantly. I would highly recommend Nia to anyone. Thank you Nia!!!”

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!
About: I have 10+ years of dog care experience, ranging from owning dogs to fostering pups in need of extra love.

About: For years, I've been the trusted pick for apartment friends when they travel. Count on me for top-notch pet care, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and tender attention. I have a lot of love to give! I currently start my days at 6AM when I go to the gym and then I do not start work (from home!) until 9AM so I have plenty of time to spare in the morning. While I have a flexible schedule, I also like to follow a strict routine regularly so adjusting to your dogs routine is an easy transition for me. When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment. I ensure they have ample food, water, playtime, and exercise.
“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!”
“Milo was well cared for and loved with Christine. She sent pics and videos. We were also running late and she has no problem with it. Fantastic sitter we would definitely use again.”
About: I'm a dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether your furry friend needs a playful companion, a snuggle buddy, or someone to make sure they get their daily exercise, I'm here to help. I also have experience with puppy training, so don't worry if your pup isn't fully house trained. I understand that every dog is unique, with their own personality, needs, and quirks. That's why I take the time to get to know your pup and tailor my care to suit their needs. I will ensure your dog feels loved, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available during the week and on weekends to care for your pets. Just let me know what you need! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pug and orange cat to keep your dog company. When providing walks or drop in visits with your pet, I can also assist with bringing in mail or watering plants.
About: I've had dogs my whole life, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routines, and comfort needs, and I make sure to treat each one like my own. What sets me apart is the patience and attention I give-whether that means extra playtime, slow walks for the older pups, or just being present for snuggles and reassurance. I pay attention to the small things: their favorite toys, how they like to be greeted, and what makes them feel safe. My goal is to always make sure your dog feels loved, comfortable, and understood. I am a college student looking for some extra money, I am available all week day morning and evenings, as well as weekends. Very flexible!! I am pet CPR + First Aid certified! I make sure all dogs feel safe, loved, and comfortable. All dogs have their own personality so instead of them feeling the need to adjust I adjust to their needs.
“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!😊.”
“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,”
About: Full-time aunt to Kobe, a silky terrier 6 year-old sassy, well trained boy, with a strong personality. Part-time aunt to all of my friend's animals, cats/dogs, of all shapes and sizes. Super observant of animal behavior in order to understand animals needs. Highly prioritize communicating with owners about their animals, to learn and adapt to animals/owners needs. I enjoy active days, especially with a cool dog to run around or play ball with. I'm also just as good at lounging around as your cat is, if it needs someone to fluff around with, I'm that person too. I can hold down my own, when it comes to extra large sized animals or even the fiercest of them all- the tiny animals. Besides creating a fun environment for your animals, I'm also creating a positive active environment for myself. Nothing makes me happier than cool animals, they are great company. I am a fan of walks as it is, so to have an animal join me in my outdoor adventures sounds like the perfect day to me. I am currently in a space where I am working from home, so it's been nice to have the company from all the animals as well as a reason to get up from my desk during the daily walks. I am quite clean when it comes to animals, so wiping of the paws after entering from the outdoors is on a list of to-do's for me. They do after all, sleep in our beds and walk on our couches. I also do not like ingredients like wheat and filler, so I always make sure to have any/all treats or foods with ingredients that will elongate the life rather than cut it short. I do not actually have the space to board at this time, but I am more than accommodating to keeping animals in their home space to make sure they are in their most comfortable mental state, while their parent/parents are away.
About: Hii! I’m originally from NJ, and grew up with a golden doodle named Zoey & a rescue cat named Marilyn. I am an animal lover for sure!!

I would love to treat your animal like my own! ☺️🫶 I work from home, so I’m able to provide pet care before or after work, or mid-day on my lunch break. But, I can usually be flexible depending on my meeting schedule! I take direction very well and I am super attentive and responsible. I’m extremely reliable, so whatever you want or need me to do for your furry bestie, consider it done!

I have a fully fenced-in yard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to play and relax.

I always prioritize safe and positive introductions to ensure everyone gets along well.
“Have been using Morgan for about 5 months now and Duke absolutely loves going there! She is great with responding and is flexible with scheduling. My fiance's schedule changes every month and is never the same week to week and she is great with us scheduling on a need basis. Will definitely be using all her services when needed and continue to bring Duke there.”
“Great job. Attentive, friendly and flexible and kept us updated throughout with pics for a stress free morning and afternoon. Looks like the dogs also really enjoyed the outing. Highly recommended.”
“Our golden retriever, Oliver and I met with Louis and his dog, George, a few days before Oliver's day care visit. During our meet & greet, "Ollie", had a compatibility session with Louis' dog George. They got along great. Louis' spacious fenced-in yard was an ideal setting for safe out-door play. Louis sent us several pictures during Ollie's visit showing us that Ollie was having a great time. We couldn't be happier and Ollie will be visiting again soon! Thank you, Louis!”
About: Hi! I'm A lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent who understands how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your dog! I currently have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, whom I am actively training, so I'm very comfortable with daily routines, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I also previously raised a Boxer-Catahoula Leopard Hound mix from puppyhood through his senior years, and he lived a happy life until about 16. That experience gave me hands on knowledge with energetic puppies, adult dogs and seniors who need a gentler approach. I treat every dog as if they were my own-with patience, attention, and care! I have experience with small, medium/large dogs, including puppies and seniors and I am comfortable reinforcing basic training and good leash manners. At this time, I'm excited to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare and boarding Tuesday, Thursday through Sunday. Come summer time I will have 7 days per week availability. I'm currently offering discounted rates while I build up my Rover profile and reviews without cutting corners on care and attention. I am not offering doggy day care or boarding at this time until my own puppies are fully trained. My focus is 100% individualized one-one-one care for your dog in their familiar environment. You can expect a timely visit that includes safe and attentive walks, fresh water, feeding and clean-up, if needed. I can provide photo updates and a brief summary after each visit. My approach to care is calm and assertive! I understand that every dog has a unique personality and I take the time to learn what makes your dog feel safe, happy and confident. I am a caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with your dog.

“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 taken care of dogs all of my life, and grown up with them since the day I was born. I’ve never not had a dog, my childhood dog lived to be 16 years. I’m here to do what I love and be able to spend my time with all of your fur babies Im flexible I walk dogs while being able to finish school, I do this Monday through Friday and I’m looking to get more overnight sits for the weekends I care for every animal as if they are my own they will be as equally as spoiled as they would in their own home. The safety of your animal is not in question with me because I understand how much we worry about our animals when they aren’t able to be with us.
“Morgan was great, and was willing to walk our < 3 month old puppy twice a day on VERY short notice. She was extremely nice, professional, and even sent me pictures to let me know how my pup was doing. We will definitely be using Morgan’s services again, and would recommend her to anyone looking for some help with their dog.”
“Christine was super friendly and understanding of my pets needs. She sent adorable pics of my dog while on walks which made me feel better about having to be away. Thank you, Christine!”
“We used Anthony for a walk with my large dogs. He has a lot of knowledge about dogs and their training, and the dogs were happy to go with him. He was responsive in booking- he does prefer scheduling further in advance, but we were lucky he was available on a day’s notice. I recommend Anthony and would use him again.”
“Tyler has been walking my Golden, Max, for a couple months now and he is the only one I would trust with my Max! Max already knows when Tyler is on his way and waits for him looking out the window. Tyler is very friendly and gentle even with my older dog. Max always comes back tired from his walk, which is a great help to me! Thanks Tyler!”
“Chelsea is polite, friendly and caring. She arrived earlier than the booked time to introduce herself and meet my dogs. It is a huge help and my dogs love her. I will continue to book her.”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I previously worked as a dog bather in a pet boarding facility, where I learned how to handle and care for dogs during stressful times. I also helped out with the daycare program a couple times a week. I am patient, attentive, and truly love spending time with dogs! I am a student, so my weekends are free, and Mondays and Fridays are very flexible for me. I can plan my daily schedule around walks and drop-ins, and I am available early every morning. I always treat my clients' home and pets with respect and ensure safety at all times. I double-check locks, leashes, and gates, and I stick closely to the pet's routine. I am mindful of each pet's needs and communicate clearly with the owners throughout the visit.
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. Often watch others dogs over night, or come by for walks and feedings when owners are away. Good with animals of all sizes. Currently my schedule is very open, available in the mornings and afternoons for walks or visits. Can also be available to watch dogs overnight if needed. My home is an apartment right next to several parks. Perfect for smaller dogs or big dogs who need exercise outside. Can also travel to you.

“Reviews don’t lie! Lynn and her husband Marty took such great care of our Frida. They stepped in last minute after our original sitter canceled just a day before our trip, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. They kept us updated with daily photos, and Frida was clearly SO happy and comfortable. Thank you, Lynn, for all the amazing care and love you gave to Frida—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“This was the first time our 2 girls Juniper and Honey have ever stayed overnight anywhere since we rescued them 5 years ago. We felt confident having Carolina watching our girls. Prior to their stay we did a meet and greet. Carolina has a very calm demeanor, and we were very confident that the girls would be comfortable in her home. She sent us pictures and gave us updates of how they were doing, which was nice. When we picked them up they were very happy, so we'll definitely be using her services again.”
“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.”
“This was my first time having anyone other than family watching Abby, so I was a bit nervous. But Jonathan took such great care of her; he sent updates every day on how she was adjusting and settling in, which really put my mind at ease. I would absolutely book with him again to watch Abby!”
“Michele watched my dog in her home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I loved all the updates and pictures she sent—it really made me feel calm knowing my dog was well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Michele!”
“Bayan was such a friendly host that communicated extremely well. Super fast replies! Our dog stayed with her for about a week over Christmas break and she continuously gave us photo/video updates. We’ll definitely use her again!”
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.
“Erinn was great! She was very quick to respond to all my messages and updated me every day with how things were going with Mochi. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Louis was wonderful with my two senior labs. He made them feel right at home and he gave us reassurance with constant updates and pictures of our pups. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to be sure their pups will have a fantastic sitter and great environment away from home!”
“Our dogs, Whiskey & Star had a nice stay. Morgan, was very patient with both dogs and she kept us up to date during their visit. Morgan, also was very flexible with her schedule and kept communication open. We would definitely let our dogs board again with Morgan.”
About: I have had dogs in my life for 20 years. My current pup had parvo and I nursed her back to health, she's now 11. I love any and all dogs and if you don't like dogs, you don't like me. I am patient, loving and kind and dogs and animals just fall in love with me. Dogs are family in my house. You can trust me and us. I <3 dogs with all my heart
“I can't imagine having a better experience with a dog sitter. We boarded our older puppy (he's also big and goofy) with Marisol and Co. for 8 days and she went above and beyond any expectations a person could have for caring for a member of their family. From the meet-and-greet to the pickup at the end of our dog's stay, Marisol was in touch providing caring, thoughtful and reassuring pictures and information. We got pictures and updates daily of my dog enjoying outdoor time in their big yard, on walks (and runs!) with the family and resting and relaxing in their comfortable home. Marisol and her family clearly know dogs and have patience and a gift for bonding and connecting with animals. My dog is young so I know he is a bit more work than a more sedentary dog and I so appreciated that Marisol got that. I feel so lucky to have found what I think is the best people possible to look after my dog. I will use their help in the future!”
“John was very tentative to our dog . We loved his positive energy . We can tell he's a true animal lover . He was so easy going and flexible when we had to change our drop off off time last minute . Love how him and his son made our dog feel loved :) Photos were adorable of her he sent ! Thanks so much :)”
“Teresa was absolutely wonderful, we are so grateful that we found her! We actually found her very last minute and she was wonderful, kind, super accommodating, and so wonderful to our dog! Her correspondence was great and we knew our dog was in the best care the whole time we were away! Highly recommend her, she is lovely!”
“Left my dog with Carla for 4 days and I can't complain. My dog was fine even though it's very shy and scared of other people. I would leave my dog with Carla again if I need to.”
“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.”
“Jenelee was so wonderful and we can’t wait to use her again. From the moment Jenelee met my dog, I knew that it was a great fit. The second time she met my dog, my dog rolled on her back and got some big belly rubs from Jenelee which already showed her comfort level with her. Jenelee was very responsive, answered all my questions and sent plenty of updates and photos. She was also accommodating and allowed me to extend my dog’s stay with her when we hit a travel issue and had our flight cancelled. I know my dog can’t wait for her next vacation at Jenelee’s home with her family! I truly recommend Jenelee to everyone!”
