“Yvette took care of our dog who normally gets very sad when we leave her and had a great stay with Yvette!! Yvette sent us plenty of pics and updates and videos during the 3 weeks she stayed with her and it was so nice to constantly be in touch. Our dog adjusted extremely quickly and I know all of her needs were met and then some. Yvette goes the extra mile to ensure great care and you can tell she really has the dog's best interest always in mind. I cannot recommend highly enough!!”
“Harley was fantastic! She totally accommodated my 10 year old Labrador, who’s not the easiest to care for. She really loved him and did her best to make him feel at home and comfortable. She was very communicative about everything and sent lots of photos. Her house was clean and large enough for a 100lb lab. Her yard is big and fenced in. We will def be rebooking her! Thanks Leny 🫶🏼”
“Luna loves staying with Whitney and Michael and family. She has so much fun with the girls and also playing with their dog. They take great care of her and are understanding when I forget something for Luna and they step right up and fill in what’s missing. This is a great home for my puppy when I have to be away.”
“Jaimie took beautiful care of my gentle giant, Ollie. Ollie is 100 pounds of love and fluff and I was very anxious about leaving him because he is so attached to me. Jaimie made me feel at ease at our meet and greet and we got to meet her pup and cat. With a big fenced in backyard, lots of dog toys, and a comfy couch for lounging, Jaimie made me feel right at home. We told her that Ollie might be too nervous to eat, and she sent pictures and updates constantly. Ollie was eating in no time and Ollie came home happy and well fed. Ollie loves humans snd she sent pictures of her and the dog watching tv together at night and of Ollie with her daughter. I am happy to recommend her and will be using her again!”
“My dog is so well cared for when she’s with Jalisa. The entire family loves on my fur baby so much that sometimes I have to drag her away. I am a repeat customer and will be as long as Jalisa will have us.”
“Mohita was really a very compassionate detail oriented sitter. Romeo had the best time as he had coco to play with Mohita family treated him as family. He felt he was at home. We had a worry free vacation as Mohita kept us updated on Romeo with pictures and how he was doing with his diet and other activities. Overall we can’t expect anything more from Mohita and family.”
“Grace was a lifesaver, This was very short notice less than 24 hours and my very first time leaving my doggy with a caretake. she was able to help me take care of my doggy while i was away. She even picked him up and dropped him off - he looked very happy and refreshed. I am really happy i found her and will def be using her in my future plans. She communicates all through the process and even sends me pictures of my happy dog all during his stay. Grace thank you again!! you are the BEST!! Looking forward to working with you again. thank you”
About: I provide attentive, personalized care so pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient and quick to understand each pet’s routine and personality, whether they’re energetic, shy, or senior. I can help reinforce basic training, follow detailed care instructions, and give extra gentle care when needed. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give I treat every pet like my own and keep you updated for peace of mind. For now, I’m primarily available on Saturdays and Sundays. I may have flexibility on other days once I get to know your pet better or can adjust my schedule accordingly. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet. In my home, I have two friendly dogs and a fenced backyard for secure outdoor time and play. I always supervise interactions and make sure each pet feels comfortable and respected.

About: Pasó la mayor parte del día en casa con mi perro, de hecho vivo sola con mi perro; así que tengo la disponibilidad de tiempo para cuidar de un perro y dedicarle tiempo y atención, Trabajo a tiempo parcial, por lo que pasó la mayor parte del tiempo en casa, tengo un mini yorkie que vive conmigo, generalmente salimos a caminar todos los días por 20 a 30 minutos, excepto los días de lluvia, los fines de semana también paso en casa así que dispongo del tiempo suficiente para cuidar de una mascota Vivo en mi casa propia, así que no tengo problema en cuidar perros, cuando mi yorkie necesita hacer sus necesidades, utiliza un leash para poder salir ya que la casa no dispone de fenza. Suele salir cada hora y camina alrededor de la casa. Podría hacer exactamente lo mismo con la mascota que vaya a cuidar
About: I've had pets in my home all my life and have always helped care for them. Including: dogs, rabbits, rats, lizards, and fish. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I love caring for them by walking them in interesting places or feeding them, even sleeping with them! I finally got a dog of my own at 15 and for the past several years have walked her weekly. Now I have 2 and have learned to manage them both while walking simultaneously. I try to go on light hiking trails or to parks, switching up the location every time. I am currently free most weekends. On Fridays, I'm free after 2 PM typically, but occasionally my girlfriend will be free, in which case she can take dogs on Friday morning for boarding. Just ask and I'll let you know when I'm available on a particular Friday. In my home, my dogs are well-fed with a healthy diet of kibble twice a day, eggs in the morning, and chicken strips at night. They each get baths once every few weeks. We also always prefer they are never alone for more than a few hours at a time. If we leave even for one night, we make sure we have someone visit them every few hours for feeding and letting out. Otherwise, we make sure they feel as loved as possible with lots of petting and sitting together!
“Luciana was amazing with Bourbon! She took such great care of him, especially considering I needed a sitter at the last minute. She was incredibly accommodating and kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Bourbon is a puppy with a ton of energy, and she handled him so well. I could tell he was happy, well cared for, and getting all the attention he needed. I would 100% recommend Luciana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. She is truly amazing!”
“Oreo enjoyed his stay and made friends with their dog Bentley, this was his first time being away from home and it was such a good experience, I think he will want to go back 😂😉.”

“Adriane is fabulous! My babies were very well taken care of. She sent me pictures daily and went above and beyond. I’ll definitely rebook with her for future needs.”
“Georgette helped us out during a true emergency when we needed someone to care for my in-laws’ cats. I can’t describe how much of a lifesaver she was. Georgette was kind, accommodating, and extremely professional, not to mention highly experienced with animals as a vet tech. It’s clear that she truly cared about the cats and took excellent care of them during an extended period. It was such a comfort to know that they were being so well looked after while dealing with our family emergency. I wish I could give her 10 stars!!”

About: I have had the pleasure of caring for many different cats over the years! I think cats are some of the coolest animals around. I feel like they are so good at setting their own boundaries and communicating them! I am a seasoned meditator so I find they tend to like my calm, quiet demeanor and for long pet sits, my meditations in the morning end up being "petting" meditations once I have earned their trust and they curl up in my lap. Comfortable caring for cats of all ages (have cared for kittens and elderly cats, and comfortable giving medication.
About: My veterinary hospital experience translates seamlessly to caring for cats, including those who may be shy, senior, or need a little extra patience. As a lifelong cat owner/lover, I understand how to create a calm, comfortable environment where your cat can feel safe and cared for!
“Lisa Marie was excellent with our two high-energy dogs! She was prompt and a great communicator. She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!! Thank you for taking such great care of Linkin and Hudson!”
“Dominique was very timely, clean, and thorough. Was able to squeeze an appointment pretty late, did a great job with the kitties, and they loved her ! Would 💯 recommend her.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We can't praise Mike enough for his incredible pet-sitting services! He has stayed over and also dropped in for visits. He has taken care of our three dogs and two cats flawlessly. Mike not only follows our instructions to the T, but also has a remarkable ability for understanding our pets' needs even without detailed guidance. It truly gives us peace of mind knowing our furry crew are in such capable hands. His warm and caring approach makes it clear that he genuinely loves animals, and our pets adore him! If you're looking for a reliable and skilled pet sitter, we highly recommend Mike. You won't regret it!”
“Chris watched over my 2 cats for 7 days and was truly amazing! He sent over photos each day, followed instructions perfectly, interacted with my cats to keep them engaged and happy. I would absolutely use Chris again.”

“Janine was great with our 2 cats while we were on vacation. She kept us well informed and sent great pictures of the cats playing and getting attention. I definitely recommend her and will use her again next time we need a sitter.”
“Danielle was great! She came each morning to feed our cat and give him fresh water. She also scooped his litter and sent a picture each day. Danielle also let us know it was chilly in the house and we needed to raise the heat. We are so grateful that Tuck received such great care. Highly recommend Danielle!”
About: I've taken care of cats since I was a child. I adore my own cats and I watch feed and play with my aunts cats when she is on vacation. Id love to make families feel safe and comfortable when they need assistance taking care of their fur baby.

“I'm retired, so my dog is with me most of the time and I've only left her on her own for short periods. I needed to leave her for several hours, so I was looking for a sitter to take care of her during my absence. I found Erin on Rover and all her reviews were 5 star and spoke highly of her. Plus, she was only a short car ride away. We had our meet and greet and Erin was everything and more that her reviews claimed, so I booked with her. My dog had the time of her life during her stay with Erin! Erin took my dog with her when she went to drop off and later pick up her daughter at the school bus stop and my dog, who loves people, was in her element meeting all the other kids and their parents. My dog spent the rest of the day playing with Erin's too-young-for-school son, who did a great job tiring my dog out and she slept all the way on the car ride home! Erin, her husband Nicholas and their two young children treated my dog just like she was their own and took wonderful care of her. I highly recommend Erin.”
“Myah had a great time at Jamie's playing with Ollie! This was her first time and she was excited to be going when we pulled in the driveway. She came home very happy and tired!”
“Mary Jo was one of the best care takers we have had through out our travels. She gave our boy all the attention he needed. She kept us informed with lots of pictures and text messages on what they were doing and how Archie was adjusting. We used Mary Jo for two days of daycare. On our second day we had trouble with the bus tour we took which caused us many delays on completing our site seeing adventures then when we were finally on our way to pick our boy up our GPS took us to a different town which delayed us again for another hour. Throughout all these delays and my stress level rising Mary Jo kept assuring me that everything was ok and not to worry. With assuring us throughout these delays she helped me relax and go with the flow. I will definitely use Mary Jo again whenever I am in the area. Archie was very happy in her care.”

About: I have 7 years experience taking care of my own 80 lb Greyhound, Chloe. Unfortunately, we lost her to bone cancer a few years ago. We have 2 kids who absolutely love dogs and we're ready to love a few more pets! We only care for one dog at a time so your pup can get all the attention they deserve! Since we watch one dog at a time, you won't need to worry about your dog being around any other unfamiliar dogs during the stay. We are located 36 minutes from Newark Airport. Your dog will be in the best care while you are away! With someone home 24 hours a day, your dog will never be alone. While I do have a fenced in yard, I still believe walks are important for every dog. Boarding and doggy daycare options are available during the week and throughout the weekend. Medication administration is also available for your dog. My husband and I work opposite schedules. I'm currently working part-time, but my husband is home when I'm at work, so your pup will be cared for around the clock! Boarding and doggy daycare are available daily. I have a fenced in yard for pups to run around. I can also crate your dog at night or when specified. I can care for your pup however you see fit, including following specific feeding schedules or medication schedules.
About: I know how much pets mean to their families. I am a pet parent too. I understand the anxiety we all feel while boarding our fur babies. When your furry friend/baby stays with me, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving them their favorite treat, or extra cuddles when they’re missing you, I make their comfort my priority. I have hands-on experience providing safe, reliable, and loving care ensuring they feel at home even when their family is away. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of different breeds, ages, and temperaments—covering everything from daily feeding and exercise to giving medications and keeping them calm in new environments. Why families trust me: I care for each pet as if they were my own. I keep their routine consistent, so they feel at home. I’m patient and gentle with pets that are shy, or need extra attention. I send updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. Most importantly—I give them the love, play, and companionship they deserve. We have comfortable living space, big fenced back yard for them to run, play fetch or just outdoor supervised play time. Also I am available to take them on walks. Socialization opportunity- We have a very friendly labradoodle, visiting friends have the chance to socialize, play and engage in positive interactions with another well behaved dogs.

I am currently working part time with flexible schedule, so pretty much open to work around your drop off and pick up time. I do go out for school picks up and drop off which is quick or to run some errands and appointments but just for couple of hours and I do have cameras on the pups. We have a fenced yard and one very friendly fur baby to keep your baby safe and have fun. I have multiple gates too, which can ne used to separate them if needed
“I can’t express enough how wonderful Sara was with our little Peanut. I had come to grips with the fact that I probably won’t be able to go anywhere this summer because I didn’t want to take my dog somewhere where they would crate her or where she would be with a bunch of other dogs until I found Sara. She was absolutely wonderful and she treated her like one of the family. She only takes one dog or one household of pets at a time which makes me feel even more comfortable. My puppy absolutely adored her and her family and so did I! Thank you Sara for all your did. I know you will see Peanut every time we are away or even just out for the day like we did today.”
“Luciana was absolutely wonderful with Bheem and Bhairav! She was incredibly accommodating, especially since my request was last minute, and took such great care of them throughout the day. She even gave them a little pedicure, took them on walks, and regularly shared pictures and updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. Both dogs looked super comfortable, happy, and clearly enjoyed their day with her. Highly recommend Luciana ... reliable, caring, and genuinely great with dogs!”
“Very happy with how Pam took care of our little Puppy. It was his first time away from home and he had a great time. Pam really took good care of him and kept sharing regular updates about him with pics and videos which assured us of his well being. Thank you!”

“Lenny has doggie daycare down to a science. She has a spacious home with several sections for different temperaments of dogs so they stay safe and relaxed during their stay. Our two dogs had their own room in the house. They were well taken care of while we were unable to take them with us on our evenings while traveling. At the last minute they saved us from being kicked out of our hotel (due to barking). Thank you Lenny!”

Suna communicated with us daily, providing text and photo updates, clearly indicating that Buddy was well taken care of during his time with her. I highly recommend Suna if you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile to insure that your beloved pet is safe and happy, whether for overnight stays or daytime care.”

“This was my first time using the service (and a first time I traveled without my dog) - Erin was phenomenal! For 5 walks (across morning/afternoon/evening) she arrived either earlier or right on time as scheduled! She offered to come to my home the day before I left (for a meet & greet) and this was a wonderful way to have my pup feel comfortable. I received immediate updates and photos of all activity so I never was left wondering. Overall Erin provided an amazing experience and I would not hesitate to book again. Thanks Erin! 😊”
“I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Johnathan provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy, wait for him , and got plenty of exercise and attention. It’s clear that Johnathan genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable. I highly recommend Johnathan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible dog sitter!”
“Mike was an absolute gem with our puppy Summer. She can be hesitant and nervous with new people, but she warmed up fast. Mike is the first person we had pick her up and walk her without us being there. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. He kept me updated and took some great pictures of her. Thank you thank you thank you for taking care of our precious little diva.”
“Zhaohui was great! Very reliable, friendly, and took good care of my dog during the walk. Communication was smooth, and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely book again.”

We use her for all of our trips when Luna will be home alone for a long period and to break up her day and give her exercise when the household is all working outside of the house. She finds a way to support the times we need and shares updates and pictures from the walks.”

About: I have been petsitting for over 10 years now! I absolutely love animals, and I see it as a real gift to care for other people’s beloved companions. I’ve had the pleasure of sitting for both cats and dogs, and earlier this year I also ran a small farm on my own for three weeks, caring for goats and chickens. I pride myself on being responsible, reliable, and deeply caring; maintaining structure and routine for animals while also offering plenty of affection, cuddles, and attention. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and caring for your home and pets! I am a writer who uses petsitting opportunities to focus on my writing! I also teach yoga & playwriting and host events! My weekly routine is pretty flexible in many ways so if you have a unique time or petsitting request, please reach out! I take being in other people's homes to be a matter of great responsibility and care. I have had the honor of pet sitting all over the world now, and I really treat other people's homes as my home when I am there. I am very clean and attentive to details. I am also the type of person to go for long walks, meditate and do yoga. I don't drink, and enjoy the simple things in life. If you have a dog that love walks, we will be best friends.
About: I have always had a passion for dogs. I have been dog sitting for the past 6 years. I truly love every minute of it! I enjoy giving each dog individual attention and care, unlike what they may receive in a large kennel. I love spending time with dogs, taking them for walks, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away I’m a stay at home fur mom and have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I can easily incorporate more dogs into my feeding and walking routines throughout the days. I have had dogs my whole life and truly enjoy pet care and helping keep pets on their schedule. I also think it is important to have patience with dogs.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, frogs, bearded dragons, anoles/geckos and fish. I grew up with pets and got my first dog at 18, which really shaped my love and understanding of animal care. Since then, I have raised multiple cats, including rescues and bonded pairs, as well as my Black Lab, all in a busy, loving, kid-friendly and family oriented home. I also have firsthand experience caring for senior pets and animals with medical needs. I currently have a diabetic cat who requires insulin injections and a cat with allergies who needs daily oral medication. My first dog, Cole, developed bladder cancer later in life and required ongoing home care, veterinary care, medications and extra attention. These experiences taught me how important it is to follow routines carefully, notice changes in a pet's behavior, and provide patience, comfort, and reassurance when they need it most. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, and caring for pets at all life stages—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra attention. My pets have always been part of the family, so I know how important it is to provide not just basic care, but comfort, patience, and a safe environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care, and I’m happy to tailor my services to fit each pet’s unique needs and routine. I work full-time as an educator, so I’m available before and after school hours during the week, as well as on weekends. My schedule is very consistent, and I’m home in the afternoons, evenings, and nights for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. During the summer, I have much more flexibility and availability throughout the day, which allows me to provide even more hands-on attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort means everything to me. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most relaxed and secure, and I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care, and I always take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, habits, and little quirks so they feel comfortable with me. I’m very attentive, patient, and experienced with feeding routines, administering medication, and caring for both young and senior pets. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re part of my own family—I’ll always keep you updated so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Evgenii was on time Was very friendly he had a warm smile and was very professional Phoenix liked him and was happy to go with him.. I will use him again Thanks Evgenii...”
About: I've been walking dogs since I was 15 years old, when I built my own client base doing walks and drop-in visits for families while they were away. That early experience taught me how to read a dog's personality fast and earn their trust from day one. Since then, I worked as a receptionist at a veterinary clinic, where I learned a lot about dogs' medical needs — from spotting early signs something's off to understanding how to safely support pets with health conditions. I'm excited to get back to hands-on care and bring both my years of walking experience and my vet clinic knowledge to your pup. I'm off consistently on Tuesdays and Saturdays, so I have full flexibility those days for walks, drop-ins, or sitting. On the days I do work, my schedule can vary, but I'm reliably free by 5 pm at the latest — often earlier. I get my work schedule 3 weeks in advance, so I can confirm exact availability early and plan around recurring bookings easily. I keep a calm, consistent routine so pets feel comfortable whether we're in my home or theirs — sticking to their regular feeding times, bathroom breaks, and playtime. I'm comfortable administering basic medications, having done so for my own dog in the past, and my vet clinic background means I know how to recognize signs of illness or distress and when something needs extra attention. I'm also good at reading individual personalities and take extra care with shy or nervous dogs, since my own dog was the same way — I know how to build trust at their pace. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first.
“Karissa is so lovely and attentive, our dog Eva absolutely loved her and enjoyed her visits. We highly recommend her, she is a go to sitter, kept us well informed, sent us videos and pictures of the visit. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Eva was in good hands.”

About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
“Chris is a great addition to our “Team Burton” care team. He is kind, responsible & gentle with Burton and we love having him come over to take Burton for walks. We will keep using Chris whenever we need additional help!”

“Yvette took care of our dog who normally gets very sad when we leave her and had a great stay with Yvette!! Yvette sent us plenty of pics and updates and videos during the 3 weeks she stayed with her and it was so nice to constantly be in touch. Our dog adjusted extremely quickly and I know all of her needs were met and then some. Yvette goes the extra mile to ensure great care and you can tell she really has the dog's best interest always in mind. I cannot recommend highly enough!!”
“Harley was fantastic! She totally accommodated my 10 year old Labrador, who’s not the easiest to care for. She really loved him and did her best to make him feel at home and comfortable. She was very communicative about everything and sent lots of photos. Her house was clean and large enough for a 100lb lab. Her yard is big and fenced in. We will def be rebooking her! Thanks Leny 🫶🏼”
“Luna loves staying with Whitney and Michael and family. She has so much fun with the girls and also playing with their dog. They take great care of her and are understanding when I forget something for Luna and they step right up and fill in what’s missing. This is a great home for my puppy when I have to be away.”
“Jaimie took beautiful care of my gentle giant, Ollie. Ollie is 100 pounds of love and fluff and I was very anxious about leaving him because he is so attached to me. Jaimie made me feel at ease at our meet and greet and we got to meet her pup and cat. With a big fenced in backyard, lots of dog toys, and a comfy couch for lounging, Jaimie made me feel right at home. We told her that Ollie might be too nervous to eat, and she sent pictures and updates constantly. Ollie was eating in no time and Ollie came home happy and well fed. Ollie loves humans snd she sent pictures of her and the dog watching tv together at night and of Ollie with her daughter. I am happy to recommend her and will be using her again!”
“My dog is so well cared for when she’s with Jalisa. The entire family loves on my fur baby so much that sometimes I have to drag her away. I am a repeat customer and will be as long as Jalisa will have us.”
“Grace was a lifesaver, This was very short notice less than 24 hours and my very first time leaving my doggy with a caretake. she was able to help me take care of my doggy while i was away. She even picked him up and dropped him off - he looked very happy and refreshed. I am really happy i found her and will def be using her in my future plans. She communicates all through the process and even sends me pictures of my happy dog all during his stay. Grace thank you again!! you are the BEST!! Looking forward to working with you again. thank you”
“William was a great sitter! Our doggie is quite nervous and he made her feel at home and even had a dog bed next to his since she was too scared to stay on his. We appreciated his frequent updates as well, with photos!”
“Radwa was awesome! She sent picture updates and let us know how our pup was progressing throughout the stay. She was also very pleasant to deal with. I would definitely recommend Radwa!”
About: I've had pets in my home all my life and have always helped care for them. Including: dogs, rabbits, rats, lizards, and fish. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I love caring for them by walking them in interesting places or feeding them, even sleeping with them! I finally got a dog of my own at 15 and for the past several years have walked her weekly. Now I have 2 and have learned to manage them both while walking simultaneously. I try to go on light hiking trails or to parks, switching up the location every time. I am currently free most weekends. On Fridays, I'm free after 2 PM typically, but occasionally my girlfriend will be free, in which case she can take dogs on Friday morning for boarding. Just ask and I'll let you know when I'm available on a particular Friday. In my home, my dogs are well-fed with a healthy diet of kibble twice a day, eggs in the morning, and chicken strips at night. They each get baths once every few weeks. We also always prefer they are never alone for more than a few hours at a time. If we leave even for one night, we make sure we have someone visit them every few hours for feeding and letting out. Otherwise, we make sure they feel as loved as possible with lots of petting and sitting together!
“Luciana was amazing with Bourbon! She took such great care of him, especially considering I needed a sitter at the last minute. She was incredibly accommodating and kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Bourbon is a puppy with a ton of energy, and she handled him so well. I could tell he was happy, well cared for, and getting all the attention he needed. I would 100% recommend Luciana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. She is truly amazing!”
“Oreo enjoyed his stay and made friends with their dog Bentley, this was his first time being away from home and it was such a good experience, I think he will want to go back 😂😉.”
“Laraine is amazing! I can always tell when my dogs love a place when they pull away to go there and don’t look back! It is so wonderful to travel and know that your pets are with someone that loves them as much as you do... maybe even more! I’m so glad to have found her.”
“Leo had a great time with the wonderful family. He loved the company of the kids so much I think he was slightly resisting to come with me when I went to pick him up. Got very regular updates along with pics and we would keenly look forward to them. Thank you again for being wonderful hosts for Leo and taking care of him so nicely.”
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“Neli is great! We cannot recommend her enough! She took good care of our dog Toby and sent us regular updates, videos and photos. She communicated any concerns punctually which gave us peace of mind. Her house is super clean and she has a nice backyard with a small fence which was great for our little dog. Toby came home so happy and relaxed. We will definitely book her again.”
“Rwitika was great with our dog over his 10-day stay. My dog seemed to have gotten along with her pets as well (dog and cats). She kept in touch with us with updates, pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her.”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received from Raj. Our puppy is 18 months and has never been away from us until she needed boarding for 8 nights. We received photos and videos from Raj daily which was so appreciated. We could tell that our pup was being taken care of like she was their own dog. We would definitely use Raj again and very highly recommend.”
