“Kiko had a wonderful time with Tanvi. This was her first experience staying with Tanvi and in a couple of days, it looked like she felt at home there. Tanvi was very caring and tried different ways to get Kiko to eat her meals. We will definitely leave Kiko with Tanvi going forward. I'm glad we have such a worry-free option for Kiko.”
“I have a 12 yr cockapoo who requires daily medication. Noria has been our overnight sitter since April 2024. She only takes one dog in addition to her own sweet Milo. Noria is incredibly kind, smart, professional, loves dogs and has a gentle/loving way in interacting with my Kobe. She has been truly a blessing to find! My family and I are assured that when we leave Kobe for an overnight with Noria that he is being cared for as if he is part of her family. Kobe can be an anxious dog and slow to warm up to people. She has a patient and playful disposition. From the first time he met her he was happy, calm and it was evident that he felt secure in her care. The medication and feeding instructions have always been followed and understood. We appreciate the photos she sends and the updates as to how he is doing. Noria is a genuine individual who has been a complete joy for our family to work with. We are so happy that she has been caring for Kobe. When we go away we know he looks forward to his time with Noria and Milo!”
“Ryan took great care of our dogs. He provided lots of pictures with daily updates on how our dogs were doing. Our dogs loved their stay and were so well taken care of. Thank you Ryan!”
“We have used Amy several times, she replies quickly and has been very pleasant and flexible to work with when dates had to be changed. She took great care of Shadow and sent photos. Shadow is happy to go back to Amy and have fun playing at with her pups.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! It is clear how much Joanne truly cares for animals. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and treated my dogs like her own. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups—and that peace of mind is priceless! She kept me updated, was easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely loving toward animals.”
“Jenny and her family took great care of Martin while we were away last week. Communication was smooth and easy, and she send me pictures of him every day. It was such a peace of mind know that my beloved Martin was in great hands.”
“Samantha was great. Very attentive to our dog and his needs and provided regular updates. Her dog cocoa was also very sweet. Would recommend to anyone in the area”
“Camila’s family was absolutely amazing with our dog Cookie! They sent constant updates, lovely photos of him playing in the yard with their kids and other dogs, and it’s so clear that Cookie was having a blast staying with them! Cookie is a senior pup that needs quite a bit of attention and also had a cough that they tended to so well, which is such a relief to know that our dog was in great hands! They will definitely be our go-to boarders for Cookie❤️”
“Our pup was well taken care of and happy at Tao’s house. I received lots of photos while we were away for 12 days and appreciated the updates. Thank you for taking care of Turbo!”
“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”
About: When you entrust your pet to me, you're choosing someone whose career has been built on compassion, responsibility, and exceptional care. As a registered nurse with over 12 years of experience, I understand that every living being deserves individualized attention, patience, and a safe, nurturing environment. Caring for others is second nature to me. Throughout my nursing career, I've specialized in caring for seniors and individuals with unique medical and emotional needs. Those same skills translate seamlessly to pet care. Whether your pet is a playful puppy or kitten, a senior needing extra patience, requires medication, has special needs, or simply thrives with extra love and attention, I have the experience and confidence to provide attentive, reliable care. Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has always been more than a job—it's a passion. In addition to nursing, I own and operate my own concierge nursing and pet care business, where trust, professionalism, and personalized service are the foundation of everything I do. I know leaving your pet behind can be stressful. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind by treating your dog or cat like a member of my own family. You'll receive dependable communication, regular updates, and the reassurance that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all pet care. Every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved from the moment they arrive. My commitment is to provide the same level of compassion, attention, and professionalism that I would want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a nurse three days a week, which allows me plenty of flexibility and dedicated time on my days off to focus on pet care. On my off days, I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for by making sure they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and any needed special care or medication. Because I’m used to working in a caregiving profession, I’m very organized and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide dependable, unhurried care so each pet gets the attention they deserve, whether that’s extra walks, cuddle time, or sticking closely to their normal routine. I provide flexible, reliable, and attentive care both in my home and in my clients’ homes, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I offer drop-in visits, daily care, and overnight stays, as well as boarding in my own home where pets are welcomed into a safe, calm, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and any special routines are handled with consistency and care. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care throughout the day. In all settings, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine love. I also believe in clear communication, so I provide regular updates and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is always to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

“I left my dog with Lineth for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She followed Cosmo’s routine perfectly and treated him with so much love and attention that I felt completely at ease. It’s not always easy to leave your pet, but knowing he was in such good hands made all the difference. Moving forward, she will definitely be my first choice for Cosmo. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog! Thanks 🙏”
“Shadow looked to be well taken care of during his stay. Tom took him on some long walks, spent plenty of time playing with him and kept us updated with pictures. We would hire Tom again to watch Shadow.”

“Joanna is great. I appreciate the fact that she took the time to answer any concerns I had. My cat had a wonderful time with Joanna. My cat tends to be skittish and will starve himself if he is in a new place but after just a few days Joanna managed to bond with my cat. I loved the frequent updates and pictures she sends. Joanna goes above and beyond with her services. Your pet is safe with her.”
“Frida was amazing! Our cat is usually not a people person but he was unusually receptive to Frida. She took great care of him and made sure he was well fed, clean and took time to play with him. We felt at ease with Frida in our home which she took great care of. We would be happy to welcome her back for future visits!”
“Andrea was amazing at keeping my moody cat over the weekend! Super accommodating as well when my flight home was delayed by three hours. Highly recommend!! Thanks Andrea”

“Xingcheng (Connie) looked after my two boys, Bobby and Jack, for 14 days while I was traveling, and she is hands-down the most reliable and best cat sitter I have ever had! She connected with them instantly, played with them regularly, and sent me tons of daily pictures and videos. I always felt completely at ease knowing they were in such excellent care. She gave me regular updates on their food and kept the litter box spotlessly clean. Communication was fantastic throughout the entire stay, so I always knew exactly how they were doing. I will definitely book with Connie again and highly recommend her!”
“Heidi was excellent with our two cats! I was worried our shy/jumpy kitty wouldn’t come out and hide from her, but Heidi bonded with her quickly and she got a lot of good quality time with her. She kept us in the loop throughout her visits, sent us photos & updated us frequently. Would definitely hire Heidi again!”
“Alexis did a great job sitting for Pearl. She came to meet her and get oriented to the house ahead of time. She confirmed the booking quickly and followed up with a message the day before the job. Alexis took good care of our cat and kept us updated with texts and photos. She followed all instructions and left the house clean. I recommend hiring her!”
“Another great visit from Kriti. We couldn’t have left our 5 kitties in better hands than hers. She spoils them with lots of pets and cuddles just like I do. She send us detailed notes of every visit with cute videos of our fur babies being pet and cuddled, and even purring happily when she’s around. We’re fortunate our kitties chose her as their favorite sitter. Thank you Kriti!”
“Responsible and very responsive sitter! I appreciate Hannah's attention to detail. She was available for a last minute request with this booking and was also able to come for an additional visit so I could extend my vacation. Thank you!!”
“When we returned home after 4 days away, Caesar was friendly and happy, so that tells me that Tracy did a nice job visiting, petting and feeding Caesar. Caesar often will not make an appearance for guests but he came right upstairs to see Tracy each visit.”
“Ella is super nice! During our week away she took care of Momo very well, she’s truly affectionate with cats and cats certainly feel it, Momo looks very excited every time she comes. We would definitely recommend.”
“Had Roshni watch our cat for a second time, this time for two visits and she was great!! Trustworthy and you know she truly cares about your pet. I will continue to request her in the future knowing my Lucky will be in the best hands.”
About: I have always had a natural ability to connect and build trust with every animal I've been lucky enough to have in my life. I'm just as excited to run, jump, and throw with your most energetic pets, as I am to keep a nice, slow pace on the road to a great relationship with your more timid and cautious companions. I'm work remotely and would love nothing more than having a four-legged friend to meet up with at the water cooler throughout the week! Outside of Tuesday afternoons, my current schedule is flexible enough to discuss any other day or time that works best for you and your pet! Whether it's maintaining a strict diet/mealtime while we hang out inside or going for a stroll for some fresh air outside, there is truly nothing I take more seriously than your animal's health and safety. Any household rules or precautions (Certain doors kept closed, loose fence gate-latch, etc.) will be specifically noted and immediately made a priority.
“Kaitlyn is amazing! She sends lots of cute photos of our pets when she watches them, and gives them lots of love and attention. My husband and I could not be happier and would highly recommend her to anyone. Do yourselves a favor and book Kaitlyn to watch your fur babies. It will give you peace of mind when you’re away.”
“Megan was awesome!! So attentive to my two kitties and their care, even going above and beyond to clean up when one of them decided to leave a throw up treat!! One kitty is shy and hides but Megan made sure she was ok and checked on her each day. Will definitely call on Megan again in the future.”
“Vee was an amazing cat sitter! She took care of our two kitties for a whole week and they were very well looked after. She always replied quickly to messages and was on time. Highly recommend her!”
About: As a cat owner myself, I understand and respect what makes each cat unique. Both of my cats are adopted, and one of them required ongoing care for heart disease. Through that experience, I’ve become comfortable administering medications, monitoring appetite, litter box habits, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior that may signal a health concern. I understand the extra patience, attention, and observation that senior cats and cats with medical needs require. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I’ll take the time to earn their trust and follow their routine. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline family member is receiving loving, attentive care from someone who truly understands cats.

“James is my daycare angel and I am so relieved to find just the right person for my senior dog. I travel to NJ for work and bring Bandit with me when I can. He loves traveling but when I am in all day meetings/dinners it is not usually possible. James was so flexible I did not have to stress about drop off/pick up times, he was super responsive, and Bandit was totally comfortable with him. Now I can bring him every trip and use James for those occasions I need help.”
“I commend Jiyao for the great care provided to my dog, Halo, during my initial Rover experience. Jiyao's patience, enthusiastic approach, and excellent communication ensured my dog's safe and happy return. His services are also competitively priced! We will gladly utilize his services again.”
About: Sorry due to rover taking a 20% fee now, I have to raise my prices. It was 10% before. I love animals, I’ve owned animals my whole life, I have two pet bunnies. (They live in my garage, not house, other animals don't have access) I also own a beagle, he’s 12 . He’s very friendly and loves other dogs, specially people, he's friendly with cats. I volunteer at animal shelters and I'm going for my vet technician degree. . I take my dog out in the morning for a walk, he gets many walks through out the day, I have a flexible job where I chose my own hours / schedule but during those hours I choose I'm on call and might have to leave, usually always have one other person home but if your dog cannot be left alone I can fix my work schedule to work with you. I will love your pet like my own until you come back home. If your pet is staying at my house, we have a big back yard that has a lead for your dog, also a nice quiet street I live on for walks. my dog will be around your pet so please also have a friendly pet. Besides that, daily feeding, daily pets&love, brushing, exercise, playtime. Your pets will get all of that.

I would gladly recommend him and will seek his care for Josephine again soon.”

About: My family had many pets growing up so I have been around animals all my life. Over the past few years, I have cared for many animals with different personalities and different needs. I have experience administering pills and injecting insulin for cats. I also have experience crate training and potty training dogs. I am happy to come care for your pet at your home or have your pet stay with me (I have a cat but she is very friendly with other animals).

About: I’ve always enjoyed caring for animals and have experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve helped walk and play with my aunt’s dog and make sure he’s safe and comfortable. I also used to cat sit when I was younger, where I fed, played with, and cared for the cat. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I always make sure they are well cared for and comfortable while their owner is away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, and I make time for it around my other commitments. I have gymnastics training Mon, Wed, and Fri from 8am-12pm, and Tues and Thurs from 12pm-4pm. I am away on weekends, so I am only available during weekdays outside of those practice times. I’m organized and good at planning ahead, so I can make sure pets still receive reliable and consistent care during my available hours. When walking dogs, I’m focused on safety and following each owner’s instructions carefully. I keep dogs secure on leash and stay alert during walks. I also pay attention to each dog’s behavior to make sure they are comfortable and have a positive experience.
“Tracey is amazing! She came to our home a week before our trip away so she could meet us and our dog. Her friendly, warm personality gained our confidence immediately, and won our dog’s affection! She sent us updates after each walk along with a pic of our pup being well taken care of. We would highly recommend Tracey!”
“Highly recommend Ryan! He goes above and beyond. He is easy to communicate with, he is timely, and it is clear he cares about dogs. My dog is excited to walk with him and he always walks longer than the walk length. I fully trust Ryan with my dog.”
About: Hi! I’m Alexa, a recent University of Miami graduate and a lifelong animal lover. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and birds and have spent the last 10+ years caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and my family has also been involved with supporting a no-kill animal shelter, which has only strengthened my love for helping animals. I currently have two dogs with completely different personalities, which has taught me how important it is to understand every pet’s individual needs. My 11-year-old dog is calmer, loves relaxing, sunbathing, and getting attention, while my younger rescue dog is energetic, playful, and always ready to run around. Having both has given me experience with senior dogs, rescues, high-energy dogs, and different temperaments. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, and giving medications. My dog Bentley has diabetes, so I also have personal experience caring for pets with medical needs and understand how important it is to be attentive, responsible, and follow instructions carefully. I would describe myself as patient, gentle, active, and extremely attentive. I always pay attention to little details, whether that means making sure a dog isn’t overheating outside, keeping fresh water available, noticing changes in behavior, or simply making sure they feel loved and comfortable. I truly see pets as members of the family and will always treat your dog with the same care, kindness, and love that I give my own. Im currently home for the summer and I high flexibility for dog walking, house sitting, and potty breaks. I love to get to know all sorts of pups and appreciate each of their individual likes and personalities. If overnight boarding is foreseeable for the future after initial services with your dog, I would be happy discuss and go over details in a deeper extent.
About: I have taken care of neighbor's cats since I was 12, providing meals, medicine and love. I have had my own dog for 9 years who I also care for. I volunteered at SAVE animal shelter for 3 years taking care of cats. I just graduated high school so I am free this entire summer before I leave for college in the beginning of September 2026. I work at the YMCA on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4-7 but am free the rest of the week. I can easily take care of the pet in my clients home. I have experience doing so; cleaning litter boxes, taking care of the house, cleaning up messes, and more. I can water plants or provide any other house services while the owners are away.
About: Hi, this is Connie! I literally grew up with dogs and have 13+ years of experience caring for them. Not only do I treat pets like family, but I firmly believe they are family. I truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, so I’m patient, attentive, and cater to each one. Your pup will feel loved, safe, and happy with me. I’m a freelancer, currently working from home in Princeton, NJ. Pet care naturally fits into my everyday routine, no matter the time of day! Whether your dog needs a midday potty break or an afternoon play session, I’m always available and flexible. I’ll treat your furry friend’s schedule like my own priority. Safety always comes first for me. I’ll make sure your dog feels comfortable and secure, just like at home. When I'm at your place, I’ll treat it with the same respect I’d want for mine. When your pup stays with me, they’ll enjoy a cozy, safe, and fun place. No messy surprises, no rushing, just genuine love, patience, and a little wagging-tail guarantee.
About: I am an active individual and love the outdoors! If you have a pup who likes to run, I do not mind going for a jog. I have a small 9 year old Yorkie who loves other dogs and invites them happily into our home. My husband and I recently lost our senior dog who was almost 17. We have a lot of experience with providing senior dogs with a comfortable and extra loving home. I have puppy experience as well! We live on a beautiful property with 4 acres of land. While our yard is not fenced, we sit back from the road and I have taken my friend's dogs out on leash in our yard with no problems. It's a big yard with lots of exploring opportunities. I also enjoy going to the preserve in town to walk my dog and can happily do the same with yours. My husband and I take care of our Yorkie daily. On the days I have provided availability, I am home for the day/night. This allows me the time to care for another dog with our Yorkie. In the summertime, I plan to have weekday availability as I am a teacher and will be on summer break. I have a beautiful piece of property that while not fenced, sits back from the road and is great for a good walk through the grass on leash. I also love going for walks at our local preserve and live on a road that is pretty quiet that I frequently walk my dog on. I am always happy to stop in for a drop in visit while you are away for the day and need care for your pet. I am happy to crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds since I was a teen. I have also house sat for a few barn animals and dogs. I work part time, usually only 2-3 nights a week for 2-3 hours at a time. Besides that, I also attend school virtually, which makes it easy to work around your pets schedule! I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, which helps minimize their stress while you’re away. I try to keep their schedule as consistent as it usually is and send pic updates as often as you’d like.
“Joanna was great getting to know Sandy and was very caring towards her. She asked questions, shared concerns and we shared ways to make her stay more comfortable. We can’t wait to work with Joanna again!”
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and parent to two cats, Bubba and Mama, and our sweet rescue dog, Daisy. I have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My flexible WFH schedule enables me to be an attentive sitter and my camera roll is often full of pet photos so you will receive plenty of updates :). I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule so I can build my day around pet visits and check-ins, a perk my own pets continue to benefit from. I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and walking paths. My home has no stairs (perfect for short-legged or elderly pets) with direct access to open grass (we often have deer visitors!).
About: With years of experience caring for multiple cats and dogs at home, I truly understand their needs and quirks. I also watch dogs of all sizes and ages, ensuring they feel loved and secure in their own environment. I am dedicated to providing the best care for your pets and believe having them stay in a location they are familiar with is the ideal stay. I work from home when booked, allowing me to adjust my schedule to be fully available on booked days. I bring my laptop setup with me and I'm all set. Have an extremely flexible schedule. I take great joy in walking dogs and giving them the attention they deserve, ensuring they feel loved and cared for during their time with me. I watch dogs in your own home to ensure they feel comfortable with an environment they are used to and to avoid any additional stress.

“Kiko had a wonderful time with Tanvi. This was her first experience staying with Tanvi and in a couple of days, it looked like she felt at home there. Tanvi was very caring and tried different ways to get Kiko to eat her meals. We will definitely leave Kiko with Tanvi going forward. I'm glad we have such a worry-free option for Kiko.”
“Ryan took great care of our dogs. He provided lots of pictures with daily updates on how our dogs were doing. Our dogs loved their stay and were so well taken care of. Thank you Ryan!”
“Camila’s family was absolutely amazing with our dog Cookie! They sent constant updates, lovely photos of him playing in the yard with their kids and other dogs, and it’s so clear that Cookie was having a blast staying with them! Cookie is a senior pup that needs quite a bit of attention and also had a cough that they tended to so well, which is such a relief to know that our dog was in great hands! They will definitely be our go-to boarders for Cookie❤️”
About: When you entrust your pet to me, you're choosing someone whose career has been built on compassion, responsibility, and exceptional care. As a registered nurse with over 12 years of experience, I understand that every living being deserves individualized attention, patience, and a safe, nurturing environment. Caring for others is second nature to me. Throughout my nursing career, I've specialized in caring for seniors and individuals with unique medical and emotional needs. Those same skills translate seamlessly to pet care. Whether your pet is a playful puppy or kitten, a senior needing extra patience, requires medication, has special needs, or simply thrives with extra love and attention, I have the experience and confidence to provide attentive, reliable care. Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has always been more than a job—it's a passion. In addition to nursing, I own and operate my own concierge nursing and pet care business, where trust, professionalism, and personalized service are the foundation of everything I do. I know leaving your pet behind can be stressful. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind by treating your dog or cat like a member of my own family. You'll receive dependable communication, regular updates, and the reassurance that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all pet care. Every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved from the moment they arrive. My commitment is to provide the same level of compassion, attention, and professionalism that I would want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a nurse three days a week, which allows me plenty of flexibility and dedicated time on my days off to focus on pet care. On my off days, I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for by making sure they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and any needed special care or medication. Because I’m used to working in a caregiving profession, I’m very organized and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide dependable, unhurried care so each pet gets the attention they deserve, whether that’s extra walks, cuddle time, or sticking closely to their normal routine. I provide flexible, reliable, and attentive care both in my home and in my clients’ homes, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I offer drop-in visits, daily care, and overnight stays, as well as boarding in my own home where pets are welcomed into a safe, calm, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and any special routines are handled with consistency and care. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care throughout the day. In all settings, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine love. I also believe in clear communication, so I provide regular updates and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is always to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

“I left my dog with Lineth for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She followed Cosmo’s routine perfectly and treated him with so much love and attention that I felt completely at ease. It’s not always easy to leave your pet, but knowing he was in such good hands made all the difference. Moving forward, she will definitely be my first choice for Cosmo. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog! Thanks 🙏”

“Meena & her husband took very good care of our 8 month old pup. She was updating us with messages and pictures throughout the day and went out of her way to care for him. We were at peace of mind seeing the pictures & updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend her!”
“Jim provided excellent care for my pup. I really appreciated his availability when my previous boarding arrangements fell through at the last minute. My pup is a finicky eater and Jim kept me up to date on her feeding habits and asked permission to add tempting meat to her food to entice her. She loves to run at full speed, so his fenced property was ideal. Jim also communicated with me as well as provided plenty of photos during her stay and a video of her socializing at playtime. Thank you Jim!”

“James is a dog whisperer. He bonded with my dog -Parker- so quickly for three weeks stay. This was her first boarding experience with a complete stranger. Updates and pictures came regularly during the stay to give us peace of mind that Parker was in good hand. I would definitely hire James again in the futures. Highly recommend James to take care of your pets during your vacation.”
“Melissa and Dan were great with our 8 month old golden retriever, Ginger. We were completely comfortable after our meeting. Ginger seemed happy and well taken care of.

“This was our first time using a pet sitter for Shibu (a Shih-Tsu) as we took our 3 week vacation. We couldn't be happier with how well Kimberly took care of her. Kim sent us regular pics and Shibu looked always active and happy, so we knew she was being well cared for. she has a fenced in backyard which is a major plus. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”
“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.”
