“Best dog sitter. Had to leave my fur baby for a few days at a time. Alison was the best with her. Sometimes I think my dog would have rather stayed with Alison. She had so much fun playing. Sad I moved away. Giving the highest recommendation!!”
“Anjali took very good care of my pups while I was away. She messages back quickly with correspondence. She also sent pic updates, which I love and appreciates so much. I highly recommend this rover sitter. Her son also had a lot of fun playing with one of my pups. All and all, very positive experience. Thank you!”
“Aubrey provided great care and is dog lover for sure. We highly recommend and will be using her again for sure. Thank you Aubrey for taking care of our little friends!”
“Our dog Lucy had a great stay with Sarah and her husband. They were attentive to her needs and sent many updates and pictures during Lucy's stay. They are courteous and totally reliable. We will definitely be using them again. Highly recommended!”
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“I would recommend John and Michelle to anyone looking to board their dog for any period of time. My dog can be anxious and they went out of their way to make sure she was comfortable. They were immediately responsive when I reached out and provided fun updates throughout her stay. I look forward to using them in the future.”
“Juliana was truly a godsend, I can’t imagine leaving Milton with anyone else, she took amazing care of him, sent us photos and updates everyday and truly made it feel like he was staying with extended family ❤️ she treated him like one of her own dogs and we will absolutely be using her for all of our future trips!”
“Kavya and Adam were AMAZING caretakers to our new puppy Bruce! This was our first time leaving our dog since adoption and they made us feel so at ease. We got adorable photo and video pupdates and when we came to pick up Bruce, it was clear he had an great time. Added bonus: Kavya and Adam are the nicest people ever. 15/10 would recommend them to anyone!!!”
“Jenny is an amazing dog sitter. I received communication and photos throughout each day. Our Shiba Inu was very well cared for by Jenny and her husband. I would highly recommend Jenny!”
“John and his family are truly wonderful ♥️ I appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! John was very responsive and have frequent updates.”
“Kristina does such a great job with Oli, who clearly loves hanging out at her home while we are away. Kristina sends lots of pictures of her long daily walks and playtime at home.”

“Shelanne was AMAZING!!! Harper has found her new vacation home :) I received updates and photos/videos daily. Easy booking, priced reasonably, great communication and wonderful first meet. Large backyard for dogs to run and play. She even took our baby on walks. We will definitely be booking again!!”
“Rose was an amazing sitter! I needed someone to look after my little Yorkie, Buttons, for a whole week and she was readily available despite the short notice. She took such good care of my dog and treated him as if he was her own. She sent me several pictures of Buttons each day, as well as little updates, which made me feel at peace with the decision I've made of choosing Rose to care for my dog. I will most definitely be a returning client if ever needed because I'll know that Buttons will be in good hands! She is the sweetest woman - I highly recommend her!”
“I’ve boarded Murphy with April and her family 2x and it’s been a great experience. She always keeps me up to date with how he’s doing and he takes very long naps when he gets home - that tells me he had a lot of fun. Murphy is looking forward to his next stay!!!”
“Kristine is the absolute best! It's obvious that she truly loves what she does. She pays special attention to my Yorkie, Sparky, and is excellent with his care. She always sends daily updates and pics. I love how she keeps him on his schedule without fail. This was Sparky's 3rd time with Kristine. I highly recommend her! Thank you Kristine!”
“I have never had better place to leave my sweet Apollo, he had an excellent time! Kelsey & Conor were sending updates and images constantly. I would highly recommend them!”

“Val was very attentive to our cats during our time away and kept us up to date on their activities. They were much less stressed on our return compared to other times we’ve left them in the care of others.”
“Julia is a superstar. We had to go on a trip for 6 days and our cats had never been left in someone else’s care, so we were a little anxious how everything would go. Julia asked a lot of great questions beforehand and when our spicy cat gave her 2 days of hiding and hissing, she was very sensitive and caring (others would have given up!). By the end, both our boys looked forward to Julia caring for them and I am convinced they miss her. She took care of our boys like they were her own. She also sent us daily updates and photos so we could check in on how things were going.”
“Joanne came in on a last-minute request and did a phenomenal job winning the heart of my beloved cat. She did a fantastic job and put in a lot of effort to make my cat feel comfortable and loved. She was prompt and good with communication throughout the entire time that She watched my cat. Thank you, Joanne!”
About: My parents got me my very first dog when I was six years old, and honestly, that was the beginning of my lifelong dog obsession. Since then, I’ve always had dogs (sometimes more than one) so caring for pups has been a normal part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. I’ve handled everything from tiny cuddle bugs to big goofy giants, seniors who need a gentle pace, and energetic pups who think every day is a marathon. Because I grew up with dogs, I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training, meds, and understanding each dog’s unique personality. I treat every pup like family, because that’s exactly what dogs have always been to me. I run a photography business, so outside of scheduled times where I am shooting (weddings, family portraits etc), I'm very much available to take care of your pets with my full priority. If I'm not in front of a client, I can do all of my other work without needing to be in any specific place and without time constraints, so I'm happy to put down my editing tablet for long walks, play times and any attention and care that your pets could want or need. Security, fullfillment, and furry photos are my mottos. I want to make sure that your rules are followed to the letter, and I'm happy to be recorded/walks tracked to give you ease of mind. Next I want to make sure that your pets feel that someone is there that cares about them, is interested in them and wants to give them exciting play times and COMPANY, not just supervision. And finally, so long as you're okay with it, I'm happy to bring my camera along and take some professional pictures of your hairy best friend for fun and sharing with you (feel free to turn it down, and of course I'm not charging anything for it, I just think everyone deserves good pictures of their family!)
“Britney is doing a great job taking care of my moms cat while she’s in the hospital. Britney has been sending me pictures and keeping in contact with me. I highly recommend Britney.”
“Very pleased with the care Kate provided for my three cats. Her notes kept us up to date on their behavior and my family loved seeing their photos. Their feeding and litter areas were kept very clean. I would definitely recommend Kate!”
About: I’ve had my own pup since I was about 9 years old. Bathing, feeding, playing, training and walking was all apart of my responsibilities. I love all pets honestly and I also love taking care of them! I always treat them as if they’re your own child. I’m currently a college student with some free time on my hands! I’m available most days of the week including weekends if service is needed; Availability can be worked upon. I can bring treats and or dog/cat food if needed! If your fur baby needs simple training, I can help with that as well. I’m friendly and patient and have no problem with adapting.
About: Hiya! I am a neonatal "bottle baby" foster parent for days and week old kittens. I specifically volunteer and foster through AWA and Homeward Bound animal shelter. I have 3 cats, 2 of which I fostered since they were 2wks old. I am very comfortable with adminstering medication, tube and bottle feedings. I enjoy taking professional photographs of kitties and all pets. I am on top of litterboxes being cleaned at minimum 2x a day. I can't wait to love on and snuggle your fur babies
About: As a proud tuxedo cat owner with over 10 years of hands on experience, I understand just how unique and special every cat’s personality can be. Caring for my own cat has taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to create a safe, comfortable environment where pets can truly thrive. I’m experienced in daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior to ensure your cat stays happy and healthy. Whether your pet is playful and social or prefers a calm, quiet space, I’ll tailor my care to meet their individual needs. I treat every cat like family and know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after them. You can count on me to provide reliable, loving care and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Katie gave my one cat a pill every day and scooped the litter box while we were away. She came over before we left to go over instructions and said she would message us if there were any issues. We came back to nice clean litter boxes, and we did not get any messages so I’m assuming she was good giving the medication! Thanks Katie!”
About: My husband and I are experienced, loving pet parents. We have almost 20 years together, and 20 years of personal care for our own cats & dogs, and have taken care of many other small critters. We love, love, LOVE animals and will care for your furbaby as if they are our own (and our own are spoiled, but we still have to have reasonable expectations of rules). If staying with us, they have the run of the house and will sleep with us in our bed (if that's something they are into. Otherwise, crating is fine!). If I am coming to your home and walking, I will love and care for them just as I do my sweet girls. Our home is pet friendly, and all pets can have free roam of the house. Imagine they are on a vacation - looked after, paid attention to, but not expected to be on their best behaviour. We have lots of experience with animal rescue in 3 countries (yes, 3!) and give our free time and funds to help homeless animals where we are able. We would love to watch your furbabies. Just let us know when you need us! Thank you so much for considering us to care for your furkids.
About: I have taken care of cats since I was 15. I started off taking care of my neighbors cats when they would leave for vacations. I currently take care of cats that belong to family and friends. I have also volunteered at the Cat Cafe.
About: I’ve had cats throughout my life and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. Growing up, my family had a cat that I helped care for every day. After she passed away, we welcomed another cat into our family, and I continued helping with feeding, cleaning the litter box, grooming, playtime, and making sure she was happy and comfortable. Now that I’ve moved out, I have a cat of my own, so I understand the daily care, attention, and patience that cats need. I’m experienced with feeding routines, fresh water, litter box maintenance, interactive play, giving lots of love and attention, and recognizing when something seems out of the ordinary. I know every cat has a unique personality—some are playful and social, while others prefer a quieter approach. I’m happy to care for cats at their own pace and will always treat your pet like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“It was our dog's first time with large dogs. I love Samoyeds and I'm so happy Bunny got to spend the day with them. Ahn was super accommodating for a last minute booking. She had great updates for us. We will definitely book her again!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs, cats, and basically any animal pet you could think of since I was 7 reliable family and I would say. Also I have fostered about five dogs since moving out of my parents house. I love that I can provide a loving, caring, and comfortable environment for any pet. ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a currently stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet in my care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, or simply providing companionship, I can be consistent and attentive throughout the day. I understand how important it is to stick to each pet’s normal routine, so I’ll do my best to follow your instructions and schedule to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before providing care. I’ll carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules (if needed), exercise routines, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I believe in building trust with every animal by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to become comfortable at their own pace. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats, dogs, fish, rodents and reptiles for more than 45 years. I would be happy to share the love with your furry (or otherwise) family members too. I currently have a sheepadoodle that loves other dogs and people, so he would love to have a playmate to come and take walks and spend time with us. I currently work from home so I have plenty of freedom to spoil all the pets in my care. I do look after my 3 year old grandson sometimes so getting along with children would be an important quality if your pet should come to stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sheepadoodle that gets along with both dogs and cats. We love to go on walks too.
“Beth is so kind and has a very calm energy! She welcomed Georgi and made sure she was happy all day! Fantastic experience! Georgi is looking forward to her next stay with aunty Beth!”
About: I do offer boarding at my farm. I only take up to 2 dogs at a time. We do a few walks everyday around the 8 acres. They get plenty of yard time. Every dog gets a specialized program with me and one Free training session. Does your animal need meds? No problem. If I can syringe a horse, I can handle a cat or dog (and have) I also LOVE cats. I have had a many cats in the last 28 years. House cats, barn cats, baby cats, old cats. I currently have 2 cats that were ring worm kittens from Paws. I finished up their treatment and adopted them. I can wrangle a barn cat that’s 1/2 feral to go to the vet or get it’s flea/tick meds. Don’t count me out if you have cats! They like me as much as I like them! I have taken care of pretty much any house pet from rats, to ferrets, parrots and snakes. I have had many tropical fish tanks too. Horses, cats and dogs are not my limits. As long as I’m not previously booked, I will be able to accommodate you. It never hurts to ask. I try to stay pretty close to home so I can fit in as many visits as possible but I do have great transportation. I keep safety in mind at all times. I am always aware when I’m walking a dog and will not let them mingle with other dogs or people. I always make sure water is fresh and plentiful. I am very cautious to avoid and loose animals. Your pets health and care are my career and my number one concerns.
“I brought my two beagles to Stacey for a year, and she and Anthony took wonderful care of them. They were very easy to work with, and whenever my family gets another dog, we definitely plan on using Stacey again.”
“Such a great experience with Sarah and her family. This was my first time leaving my girl with someone I didn’t know. They made me feel very comfortable at our meet and greet. They were extremely accommodating and took great care of her. She was happy when I picked her up at the end of the day. I would highly recommend Sarah and Anthony. I will be using them again. Thx”
“Danielle has been doing a great job with my 5 month old puppy. Bella comes back from daycare relaxed and happy. she takes time to make sure Bella is not eating grass or doing the things young puppies do. I would highly recommend Danielle.”
“Raelyn was able to watch our dog with short notice. She was professional and polite. I was nervous because my dog is very energetic and anxious but Raelyn handled him very well. She said she was able to get him to interact with other dogs and he seemed to to well overall. I'd definitely use Raelyn again and I recommend her.”
About: Everyone in my house loves dogs. We have a large fenced yard and love to play run and walk with them. They won’t be bored. Taken care of several dogs with special diets. Mostly home all the time, so your home body dog will be great as well. I work part time from home so would love to hang with your dog. I enjoy dogs, would be great if I can meet yours! We have a large house and fenced in yard. Plenty of room to run and lay around. I also enjoy doing my daily run with a dog or getting some extra walking time in, if you just need a drop in.
“Kimberli was amazing! I can tell that Shiloh enjoyed his time with her and her beautiful children. She is definitely being added to our sitter’s list. Thank you again for taking care of our fur baby.”
“Christa took such good care of our boy Mo. He is blind and almost no hearing so needs some special care. She picked him up and dropped him back off for us and was right on time. Mo had a great time staying with her and was a happy boy wagging his tail. Thank you so much for giving our boy attention and watching him for us.”
About: Hi! I have owned dogs my whole life, including mutts, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, and my Pitbull. Unfortunately, we had to put our 16 year old Pitbull down last year after a long and happy life (just not long enough). We really missed having pets in the house, but aren’t ready to commit to a new one just yet, so we love having your pets stay with us! I mainly provide boarding and doggie day care, but can be available for drop in visits and walks. I am very Type A and organized, so I thrive on planning and schedules. I will happily follow any and all instructions regarding the care of your pet(s)! I am also happy to send regular updates and/or photos, as I know those are things that I always appreciate when having to leave my babies. If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to message me! My home is available for your pet’s next stay! My schedule is fairly flexible, so I can be available for drop ins and/or walks up to 3 times a day Sunday - Saturday most weeks. I have experience with various ages from puppies to elderly animals. I am happy to chat on the phone prior to caring for your pet!
“Great and I intend to return! Our fur babies got along very well. She took very good care of mine even though hers didn't feel that well. He was still feeling his trip to the vet. I highly recommend!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for almost 10 years now. During that time I have gained experience with older dogs, diabetic dogs, puppies and everything in between. I currently own a rescue dog who I have been doing high level obedience with. We participate in dogs sport like rally obedience, fetch, fastCAT, barn hunt, lure coursing and most recently scent work. When I come to take care of your dog I will treat them as if they were my own with lots of love. I want to make you feel comfortable about leaving your dog knowing someone responsible is going to take care of them. I have a high energy dog. His care involves daily walks, and lots of training including scent work, learning new tricks or building up muscle and rear end awareness. My favorite activity is walking and training dogs. I will care for your dog with love and kindness. If you give my specifics of how you like your dog handled I am more than happy to follow that. I understand each dog is different and unique which means that I adjust accordingly.
About: Hi there! I’m so excited at the chance to care for your beloved pet.🐶🐱 Your dog or cat will be treated like family, loved, respected, and given all the attention they need to feel safe and happy. Whether it’s a leisurely walk around the neighborhood, a fun outing to the dog park, or some quiet cuddle time with your kitty, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, stimulation, and affection they deserve. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, especially when life gets busy. Whether you’re working long hours or heading out of town, I offer reliable dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. Every visit is customized to your pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that’s a high-energy pup who needs to burn off steam or a shy kitty who just wants gentle care and a clean litter box. Communication is key, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and notes so you can feel confident and connected while your pet is in my care. I also offer a complimentary meet and greet to ensure we’re the right fit for both you and your furry friend. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Pet care is my fulltime business and the heart of my daily work. I offer calm, reliable, and attentive care for dogs and cats through walks and in-home visits designed around each pet’s routine. My approach is simple: consistency, trust, and genuine care so pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I respect the space, keep things clean, and make sure your pet gets the attention, affection, and care they’re used to. My goal is to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away.
“Julia, first I would like to say thank you for a awesome job!! And I will definitely recommend you to anyone and everyone who uses this app. I appreciate your help and again thank you.”
About: I bring hands-on, real-world experience from working at a professional dog daycare called Fetch, where I regularly supervised groups of 17–20 dogs at once. This taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play safely, and ensure every dog feels comfortable and enriched. Beyond daycare work, I’ve also done individual dog walking and spent time volunteering at local shelters, where I walked dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. These experiences have helped me build patience, confidence, and strong handling skills. Whether your dog is playful, shy, high-energy, or needs a little extra reassurance, I’m committed to creating a safe, positive, and fun experience for them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I dedicate Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays entirely to it. I treat pet care like a full-time responsibility on those days, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, play, feedings, and attention. When I’m caring for someone’s pet, they become my priority, and I make sure their routine is followed and their needs are fully met. In my own home, I’ve cared for my dog since he was a puppy—we started with crate training and now he enjoys playtime in our fenced yard and daily walks. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable with different routines and training styles. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very flexible and always follow the routine their dog is used to. Whether that means crate time, specific walking schedules, certain feeding instructions, or favorite play activities, I make sure to care for their pet the same way they would. My goal is to keep each dog comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to what feels familiar to them.
“Christa was great! I've only used Rover twice, but I'm very happy with my experience so far. Christa was great with my dog, Huck. She was very communicative and sent me pictures and updates. My dog seemed happy and well-cared for when I got home. I would definitely recommend Christa to other pet owners. I hope this is helpful!”
“Nicole is an exceptional dog Walker/sitter. She has a calming effect on our very reactive doggie. She is very reliable and flexible. Very knowledgeable about dogs in general. We just love her.”

“Joanne is very reliable and accommodating. It is obvious how much she cares about the pets she visits and their owners. I would recommend her to sit for your pets.”
About: I work from home so I’m able to provide care 24/7! In addition, I have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My family and I recently lost our doggie to kidney failure, so there is currently no animals of our own in the house. My time volunteering at animal shelters has given me valuable hands-on experience, especially with dogs that require extra patience and specialized care. I genuinely love spending time with these furry friends and prioritize their happiness, comfort, and safety above all else. Your pet will be treated with the same love and attention I would give my own! I am a recent graduate passionate about caring for pets and working to pay off my student loans. I ensure your pets receive the attention they deserve and provide frequent updates with plenty of pictures to keep you connected while you’re away! I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort at all times. Before starting, I gather detailed information about your pet’s preferences, routines, and any special needs. In my home, I ensure all areas are secure and free from hazards while maintaining a comfortable environment for your pets. For walks, I use sturdy, well-fitted leashes and remain attentive to avoid potential risks. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience tailored to your pet’s unique needs.
“John is very responsive and pays attention to Zuri's needs. She is strong, curious and loves to walk. John gave her a little extra time because he understood she was really enjoying her walk. He checks in and was punctual. I appreciate him.”

We love, love, LOVE animals and will care for your furbaby as if they are our own (and our own are spoiled, but we still have to have reasonable expectations of rules). If staying with us, they have the run of the house and will sleep with us in our bed (if that's something they are into. Otherwise, crating is fine!). If I am coming to your home and walking, I will love and care for them just as I do my sweet girls. Our home is pet friendly, and all pets can have free roam of the house. Imagine they are on a vacation - looked after, paid attention to, but not expected to be on their best behaviour. We have lots of experience with animal rescue in 3 countries (yes, 3!) and give our free time and funds to help homeless animals where we are able. We would love to watch your furbabies. Just let us know when you need us! Thank you so much for considering us to care for your furkids.
About: I don’t discriminate against any type of breed. I care for them as they are my own . There is no problem for me in giving medications, if needed. I currently work full time . They would be taken care of in the morning, if needed at lunch time . Once done my normal work day, then I would go back to them for however long was needed . In the clients home : We would play, go for walks if the dog enjoys them . I like to snuggle and sit with them, I will converse with them . I always make sure they have fresh water .
About: I've been taking care of dogs, cats, and basically any animal pet you could think of since I was 7 reliable family and I would say. Also I have fostered about five dogs since moving out of my parents house. I love that I can provide a loving, caring, and comfortable environment for any pet. ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a currently stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet in my care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, or simply providing companionship, I can be consistent and attentive throughout the day. I understand how important it is to stick to each pet’s normal routine, so I’ll do my best to follow your instructions and schedule to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before providing care. I’ll carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules (if needed), exercise routines, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I believe in building trust with every animal by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to become comfortable at their own pace. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Best dog sitter. Had to leave my fur baby for a few days at a time. Alison was the best with her. Sometimes I think my dog would have rather stayed with Alison. She had so much fun playing. Sad I moved away. Giving the highest recommendation!!”
“Aubrey provided great care and is dog lover for sure. We highly recommend and will be using her again for sure. Thank you Aubrey for taking care of our little friends!”
“Our dog Lucy had a great stay with Sarah and her husband. They were attentive to her needs and sent many updates and pictures during Lucy's stay. They are courteous and totally reliable. We will definitely be using them again. Highly recommended!”
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“John and his family are truly wonderful ♥️ I appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! John was very responsive and have frequent updates.”
“Rose was an amazing sitter! I needed someone to look after my little Yorkie, Buttons, for a whole week and she was readily available despite the short notice. She took such good care of my dog and treated him as if he was her own. She sent me several pictures of Buttons each day, as well as little updates, which made me feel at peace with the decision I've made of choosing Rose to care for my dog. I will most definitely be a returning client if ever needed because I'll know that Buttons will be in good hands! She is the sweetest woman - I highly recommend her!”
“Kristine is the absolute best! It's obvious that she truly loves what she does. She pays special attention to my Yorkie, Sparky, and is excellent with his care. She always sends daily updates and pics. I love how she keeps him on his schedule without fail. This was Sparky's 3rd time with Kristine. I highly recommend her! Thank you Kristine!”
“I have never had better place to leave my sweet Apollo, he had an excellent time! Kelsey & Conor were sending updates and images constantly. I would highly recommend them!”
“Our dog Bruno had a wonderful stay with Janet and Ken. They are both warming and caring people who treat your pup like he or she was their own. They have a large spacious backyard and Bruno loved exploring and relaxing on the deck. Janet sent us photos and videos of our boy Bruno so we knew he was having fun and was in good hands. My husband and I would not hesitate to to have Bruno stay with Janet and Ken in the future.”
“Hands down the most amazing sitter! The pictures and videos sent showed how loved my baby was. So much so when I came to pick her up. She greeted me and went right back into their home. Will 100% book with her again and highly recommend”
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats, dogs, fish, rodents and reptiles for more than 45 years. I would be happy to share the love with your furry (or otherwise) family members too. I currently have a sheepadoodle that loves other dogs and people, so he would love to have a playmate to come and take walks and spend time with us. I currently work from home so I have plenty of freedom to spoil all the pets in my care. I do look after my 3 year old grandson sometimes so getting along with children would be an important quality if your pet should come to stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sheepadoodle that gets along with both dogs and cats. We love to go on walks too.
“Thank You Raquel for taking care of Harper on such short notice. My husband was hospitalized and I wasn’t able to take care of Harper on my own. Raquel responded quickly was able to take Harper on as a new client pup and did a great job. Harper loved the time she spent with Sadie running around in their back yard. Thank you for all you did for my family and Harper. You were a life saver when I needed it. We will definitely be utilizing Raquel again.”
“Yajaira and her family was so good to my fur baby! She kept me updated with text, pictures, and accommodated my fur baby in every way to make him feel at home. Thank you for giving M’baku a home away from home during the holidays.”
“Bryce was fantastic! Teddy loved being there and will still try to go into the house any time we walk past, which I take as a great sign! Will 100% be booking again when needed.”
“Stephanie was amazing! She took great care of my dogs and sent tons of updates and photos. She’s very communicative and accommodating and made sure to get all the details about them so they would have a safe and fun stay. They were very happy and well-loved and had the best time! We’ll definitely stay again!”
“Kara sent us twice daily updates and pictures of our pup and gave her lots of cuddles and playtime. It made us so happy to know that our dog was loved and taken care of during our vacation. Our dog loved being a part of her family for the week.”
