“Jenny and her family took such great care of my fur baby. I loved the daily pictures and videos to update me on my pup. She was so happy and her vibrant self. I was afraid she would be sad since this was the first time we spent more than a couple of days apart, but Jenny and her family took such great care of her that she was able to get comfortable almost instantly. I would definitely book with them again.”
“Aivy was amazing! I can’t say enough positive things. She took the best care of Herbie to the point I didn’t think he was going to want to come home. She sent tons of pictures and loved on him like he was her own.”
“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!”
“Monica and Conrad are truly awesome. Leaving our puppy, kiko, over the Christmas holiday felt easy knowing he was in such caring hands. We loved the constant updates, and it was clear she got plenty of play, exercise, and even some command work. Their dog Pongo, was sweet and showed our pup around during hikes. Highly recommend.”
“Kelsey and Conor took great care of Rosie! Kelsey was so nice to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. Her dogs were so friendly and greeted Rosie so kindly right away! I would definitely book with Kelsey and Conor again. They made me feel like my dog was one of their own!”
“Annette and Martin are wonderful! My dog Riley isn't great with strangers but they were so gentle with her and let her come to them as she wished. Their place has a great set up for dogs. I was so thankful that they were super flexible and agreed to keep Riley an extra night at short notice. Most importantly, they really calmed my fears of leaving Riley by sending texts and uploading so many pics and videos to Facebook. That really made leaving her so much more comfortable for me. They are wonderful sitters.”
“I highly recommend Yajaira!! She was warm and welcoming and treated my dog like he was part of her family! She communicated with me often and sent pictures!! I will definitely be using her again😊”
“This is the 2nd time my dog Ace has stayed with Kevin & Vanessa. They are great! I love receiving daily pics and updates on how Ace is doing. Thank you Kevin & Vanessa for taking good care of him! 😀”
“Jayanna went above, and beyond to accommodate me from my 1st last minute request at 5.a.m., to keeping my Kenny an extra few hrs because I had an accident that even called for an ambulance, and was still available to have him ready at 12:30 a.m. so we could get on the Hwy heading towards Texas. She was the Greatest. $40 tip along with the extra hours into a paid full day day was a drop in the bucket for someone a kind, sweet, and caring with animals, and clients as she's proben to be! 🥰”
“Phyllis was fantastic!!! She kept in touch with us frequently for an update on how Domino was doing, which put our minds at ease. We really appreciated the report card when we returned. It was very obvious that Domino enjoyed her! We will definitely request her again."”
“She was amazing with my pup. She was very responsive and sent pics every day. Her daughter was also really lovely with my pup. She was even nice enough to give me a food scoop to take home since mine was lost a while ago. I would definitely recommend”
“Alison was great with our dog Maggie! She took great care of her, kept her on her normal schedule, and showered her with attention and walks! Alison kept us updated during Maggie’s stay with texts and pictures. We felt very at ease knowing Maggie was so lovingly cared for while we were away!”
“As always, Adrienne was amazing with our dog George! This is the third time that we have had him stay with her, and each time we are so happy with the service that she provides. George was well care for and loved while we were away on a nine day trip. When our flight got canceled and we were stuck in another country for an extra day, Adrienne was more than accommodating. We will definitely be using her for our next trip.”
About: Hi, I’m Jai! I’m a passionate animal lover, certified dog groomer, and dedicated pet caregiver who believes every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved — even when they’re away from their family. 🐶✨ My journey with animals began through my 4 years in FFA (Future Farmers of America), where I gained hands-on experience with animal care, responsibility, and proper handling. I also have experience working on a farm, which helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior, patience, safety, and the importance of providing consistent care. Throughout high school, I completed 4 years of agriculture classes, including animal science and anatomy studies, which helped me better understand animal health, body structure, and overall well-being. Along with my dog grooming certification, I have built a strong foundation in caring for dogs and understanding their individual needs. I am also continuing my education with the goal of opening my own affordable, high-quality dog care facility, where every pet can receive loving, dependable care without families having to worry about the cost. My passion is creating a place where dogs feel at home and owners feel confident knowing their pets are in caring hands. I understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pup is a playful adventurer, a shy sweetheart, a senior needing extra patience, or a cuddle-loving companion, I take the time to learn their personality and make sure they feel comfortable. When your dog is in my care, you can expect: 🐾 Safe, reliable, and personalized attention 🐾 Plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection 🐾 Walks and activities based on your dog’s energy level 🐾 Grooming knowledge and attention to their comfort 🐾 Regular updates and photos so you can stay connected 🐾 A patient, caring, and responsible environment Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I’m passionate about and continue to build my future around. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own. 🐕💛 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I’m already dedicated to creating a structured, safe, and loving environment. My days are built around routines, responsibility, and making sure everyone’s needs are met — including my furry guests. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure each pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. One of the things that makes my home special is my 4 acres of outdoor space where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime, exercise, and exploring. My property includes a walking trail, a river area, and an invisible fence system that helps provide an added layer of security while they enjoy the outdoors. Safety is always my top priority, and I make sure every pup is comfortable and cared for during outdoor activities. I love creating a home-away-from-home experience where dogs can relax, have fun, and receive personalized attention. Between my animal care background, grooming experience, and love for dogs, I’m committed to giving each pet the patience, care, and affection they deserve. I want owners to feel confident knowing their furry family members are in a safe, loving, and attentive environment. 🐾 When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every dog feels like part of the family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and individual needs so I can provide personalized care. My daily routine allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, including regular potty breaks, meals on schedule, playtime, exercise, enrichment activities, and lots of affection. I have 4 acres of outdoor space where dogs can enjoy supervised adventures, including a trail for walks, open areas to play, and access to nature while being protected by an invisible fence system for added security. I understand that every dog is different, so I follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, comfort preferences, and daily habits. My background as a certified dog groomer, along with my experience through FFA, agriculture classes, and working on a farm, has helped me understand animal behavior, safe handling, and the importance of patience and proper care. My goal is to provide a home-away-from-home experience where pets feel happy, relaxed, and loved while their owners have peace of mind knowing they are receiving dependable, attentive care. 🐾If a pet is crate-trained or an owner requests it, I can comfortably use crates for rest periods, meals, or bedtime to help maintain their normal routine. Throughout the day, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, and I work to keep their schedules as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease while away from home.
“Took care of my dog perfectly and wrote a letter pretending it was my dog telling me what he did when he was with her. Would recommend to anyone looking to have their pet watched.”

“Both kitties were in great moods when we got home. They seemed really happy with their visits and we loved all of the extra touches Jacqueline M. provided. Super happy with Jacqueline and Rover. They take the anxiety away from worrying about who will watch our kitties when we are away.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time booking a sitter for our cat. Sarah was wonderful and very attentive to our cat's needs. Our main concern with leaving was that our cat would be lonely and get no mental stimulation but Sarah made sure that she was cared for and got lots of play time! Sarah was very kind and very accommodating. We look forward to having her cat-sit again!”
About: Hi! I’m Shani, a peaceful, attentive, and gentle caregiver who enjoys spending time with cats. I have about 8 years of cat-sitting experience, and I’m very familiar with feline behavior thanks to my mother and sister, who have three cats. I’m comfortable with different personalities—from feisty and social to shy and independent—and I respect a cat’s boundaries. Professionally, I work in roles that require strong attention to detail, consistency, and one-on-one care. I’m used to managing routines, following specific instructions, and creating a low-stress, predictable environment—which can be helpful for cats. I have experience with medication and special diets for cats. I’m dependable, observant, and patient. I’ll make sure your cat is safe and comfortable, while keeping your house safe if you are away. 🐱
About: I have rescued several animals over the last two decades. All of them have led happy lives from the moment I scooped them up from their shelter and into a loving home, to the time they passed. My family now includes two lovable, dorky, fur babies that own me. Simon is a friendly, rescued tabby cat and Lucy is a family-inherited mini dachshund dog. Both of my pets get along with other animals without any issues. Me and my husband share the duty of walking, playing, drop-offs and pick-ups. There is ALWAYS someone home when I sit. That makes it safer for everyone, especially the animals I care for. I have a fenced-in backyard for roaming and releasing energy (if the personality permits) but I also take the pups out and about as well for variation and exploration.
“Bracey was amazing! She took great care of our cat, providing regular updates and ensuring he felt comfortable and loved. Even our shy kitty warmed up quickly! Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

I also have local vets and Petsmart on speed dial in the unlikely case of emergency.

Some people on here are only interested in the money and do the bare minimum, but I can personally guarantee that I will go above and beyond to ensure you and your pet are happy! I work remotely, so I'm available pretty much anytime! Please check my calendar for availability prior to requesting services, I'll have it updated when I am unavailable. I promise to treat each pet like their own individual, making sure each one gets the proper love and care they deserve through long walks, scheduled food times, and endless pets!
“I had to leave my cat for a week so I can go on vacation. My cat was in really good hands. I received updates all the way through up until the end. My cat was happy and safe. Thank you so much”
“Katia took excellent care of our two cats! We enjoyed seeing the photos of our fur babies when we were on vacation and were very pleased with the care Katia provided them. We will definitely have her care for them in the future.”
“Hailey was such a great cat sitter I can’t wait to plan my next vacation and have her come back to take care of my two fur babies again. She was excellent with communicating with me and went above and beyond my expectations. I am so happy I was even able to go out of the country and be out of touch for a couple of days with no worries that everything at my house would be taken care of with her. Highly recommend and will be using again in the future whenever possible.”
“Victoria was fantastic! Not only did she check on both of my cats, as well as being active with refilling things like their water, but she also did some clean up around the house that was absolutely not required. Would absolutely come back to her!”
About: I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities, from shy & timid to energetic & vocal kitties. I focus on keeping your kitties comfortable, maintaining their routines, sending several updates, and crating a calm, stress free environment while owners are away.
About: I took in a rescue cat and cared for this dear, sweet angel for 17 years until she passed at the age of 21. I frequently cat sit for clients, friends and family. I absolutely adore Cats! I used to take care of a diabetic cat and can give shots if necessary. Cats that I currently sit for these days have various dietary restrictions and habits, which I can comfortably take care of.
“Alyssa was an amazing sitter. Not only did she take great care of our cat she went the extra mile by bringing in mail, taking out trash, and sweeping our porch of debris after a storm. What’s more it was plain to see how much she loves animals and the joy she takes in her work. Would absolutely hire again for future trips! Thank you so much Alyssa!”
“Chris was great! He communicated readily during the entire time we were away. We felt like our two cats were in great hands. We will definitely use Chris again when we go away.”

I shall be back for sure.”
“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.”
“Lisa was great! She accommodated my early morning schedule and made sure she had all the information on Sadie’s needs beforehand. She kept me updated through out the day with pictures and how she was doing/what they were doing which really eased my worries! I know Sadie was in good hands and am glad I have a trustworthy, friendly and caring dog walker/sitter for my Sadie girl!”

About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, giving meds, and of course plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What Sets Me Apart I really take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and quirks. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits, supporting an older dog who moves at a slower pace, or sticking to a routine to keep your pup comfortable, I always adjust to what your dog needs. I also pay close attention to little details—like favorite toys, treats, or special instructions—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in caring hands. Since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or check-ins, and I love having the company of dogs while I work. Whether it’s sticking to a set feeding and potty schedule or adding in some extra cuddle breaks, I’m able to keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my care, I make sure they’re in a secure and pet-friendly environment—free of hazards, with plenty of space to relax and play. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s diet, medication, or special routines, so your pup feels right at home. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect as I would my own. I keep doors locked, routines consistent, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved until you return. Building trust is important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“I needed a last minute sitter for a few hours and was coming from out of town. Bri was fantastic!

“Bracey is a dream dog walker. She was super communicative, reliable, and very clearly loves caring for animals. She sends great photos and notes and even does training exercises with our dog, Margo. We have already booked our next series of appointments.”
About: I have many years of experience and a dog of my own. (A German Shepherd) I’ve grown up with dogs since I can remember and I’ve always considered dogs to be family. I’ll always treat your dog the way I’d want mine to be treated. I’ll run and play with your dog the same way I do with mine. I’m available pretty much every day, besides the weekend sometimes! Also, my boyfriend trains dogs so I’ve been learning even more in that aspect which can be useful. I like taking walks and going to the park, or wherever else you’d prefer me walk your dog. I’d be happy to do whatever you choose. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Thank you very much for considering me
“Jenny has been unbelievably kind and patient with my shy rescue Jesse. He is responding quickly to her positive energy, learning to be friends and allow her to walk him. She has brought her husband Anthony and little daschund so they can walk together, a beautiful healing experience for my unsocialized, scared dog. They are gems and we are so lucky to have we found them!!”
About: I have had multiple dogs ever since I was 10 and have never had an issue with any of them. They know they are loved and cared for! Currently I’m between jobs so I have a good and open schedule to care for your animals. I love animals and have a lot of fun playing with them and walking them! We have a fence at my house that allows my dog at home to have a wide open space for playing and exploring. He also receives many bones for good behavior throughout the day.
About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds since I was very young, from birds to cats and lizards to dogs, being tasked to walk, care for, feed, and just generally oversee. I am also a current Pre-veterinarian undergrad, and am confident in my taught abilities to both handle and treat animals. I love working with any and all animals, and am absolutely thrilled to be working with your furry friends! I'm a fresh animal science graduate from the University of Delaware, and have a pretty flexible schedule. Inquire with what you need, and I'll let you know if the times align! I currently have a very eccentric 3 year old, and as such have experimented a lot in the safest possible options for your pets! I am super confident I can provide a safe environment where trust can be built and your pet is safe.
“I’ve been using Katia for the past few weeks, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention she gives my dog. She is always punctual, professional, and genuinely loves animals. My pup comes back from every walk happy and well-exercised, and I appreciate the regular updates and photos during their adventures. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in good hands when I’m at work. Highly recommend her to any pet parent looking for someone trustworthy and kind!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs of all sizes and my ability to tailor care to each dog’s needs. I’m patient with puppies, helping reinforce routines like potty training and leash skills, and attentive with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, or extra comfort. I keep dogs on their usual schedule, prioritize safety, and make sure they feel calm, secure, and loved while in my care. As a college student with a part-time job, I have a flexible schedule with days off dedicated to pet care, along with daily experience caring for my own dogs. For dog walking, I provide safe, attentive walks tailored to each dog’s pace and energy level, ensuring exercise, bathroom breaks, and comfort during every visit.
“Katie is absolutely amazing with my American Putbulk Terrier, Kahlil. She keeps you well updated with potty breaks, length/miles of walk and pictures! Becoming new to hiring a dog walk, Katie kept be well reassured and did a great job!”
About: I enjoy being around animals more than people as they are so cute and don’t talk. There is a sense of calmness and content when hanging out with pets. Usually free in the mornings, occasionally at evenings if not working. I find myself having more free time than expected most days, especially with one of my jobs where they sometimes call you out if it’s slow. I personally don’t have any pets, I prefer to walk them. I do not do home care for pets, as I am not equipped to take care of them in my home.
About: I’ve grown up with a dog so I have a lot of experience in dog care with her. I watch dogs all the time big and small! I have a lot of experience with older dogs and puppies. I’ve cared for many cats and have played/spent time with plenty of friends and family’s cats. I love, to love all cats and dogs I get to meet! I work at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion and Citizens Bank park! I will work every concert and every Phillies game. Concerts average 6-7 hour shifts. Phillies average 5-6 hour shifts. I try to respond quickly so we could figure out what’s needed as soon as possible! I try to help out as best as possible and be with your pets when ever i’m not at work! I hope I can help you out😁 I cared for my dog at home, my client’s dogs and cats with affection, attention, care, and what ever a certain pet & pets’ parents needs are. I walked my dog often and my clients dogs when asked. I love to play with all pets as long as they like it too! I always make sure everyone’s dogs and/or cats I meet are happy and comfortable with me the whole time I’m with them!

“Monica and Conrad are truly awesome. Leaving our puppy, kiko, over the Christmas holiday felt easy knowing he was in such caring hands. We loved the constant updates, and it was clear she got plenty of play, exercise, and even some command work. Their dog Pongo, was sweet and showed our pup around during hikes. Highly recommend.”
“Kelsey and Conor took great care of Rosie! Kelsey was so nice to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. Her dogs were so friendly and greeted Rosie so kindly right away! I would definitely book with Kelsey and Conor again. They made me feel like my dog was one of their own!”
“Annette and Martin are wonderful! My dog Riley isn't great with strangers but they were so gentle with her and let her come to them as she wished. Their place has a great set up for dogs. I was so thankful that they were super flexible and agreed to keep Riley an extra night at short notice. Most importantly, they really calmed my fears of leaving Riley by sending texts and uploading so many pics and videos to Facebook. That really made leaving her so much more comfortable for me. They are wonderful sitters.”
“I highly recommend Yajaira!! She was warm and welcoming and treated my dog like he was part of her family! She communicated with me often and sent pictures!! I will definitely be using her again😊”
“This is the 2nd time my dog Ace has stayed with Kevin & Vanessa. They are great! I love receiving daily pics and updates on how Ace is doing. Thank you Kevin & Vanessa for taking good care of him! 😀”
“Alison was great with our dog Maggie! She took great care of her, kept her on her normal schedule, and showered her with attention and walks! Alison kept us updated during Maggie’s stay with texts and pictures. We felt very at ease knowing Maggie was so lovingly cared for while we were away!”
About: Hi, I’m Jai! I’m a passionate animal lover, certified dog groomer, and dedicated pet caregiver who believes every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved — even when they’re away from their family. 🐶✨ My journey with animals began through my 4 years in FFA (Future Farmers of America), where I gained hands-on experience with animal care, responsibility, and proper handling. I also have experience working on a farm, which helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior, patience, safety, and the importance of providing consistent care. Throughout high school, I completed 4 years of agriculture classes, including animal science and anatomy studies, which helped me better understand animal health, body structure, and overall well-being. Along with my dog grooming certification, I have built a strong foundation in caring for dogs and understanding their individual needs. I am also continuing my education with the goal of opening my own affordable, high-quality dog care facility, where every pet can receive loving, dependable care without families having to worry about the cost. My passion is creating a place where dogs feel at home and owners feel confident knowing their pets are in caring hands. I understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pup is a playful adventurer, a shy sweetheart, a senior needing extra patience, or a cuddle-loving companion, I take the time to learn their personality and make sure they feel comfortable. When your dog is in my care, you can expect: 🐾 Safe, reliable, and personalized attention 🐾 Plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection 🐾 Walks and activities based on your dog’s energy level 🐾 Grooming knowledge and attention to their comfort 🐾 Regular updates and photos so you can stay connected 🐾 A patient, caring, and responsible environment Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I’m passionate about and continue to build my future around. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own. 🐕💛 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I’m already dedicated to creating a structured, safe, and loving environment. My days are built around routines, responsibility, and making sure everyone’s needs are met — including my furry guests. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure each pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. One of the things that makes my home special is my 4 acres of outdoor space where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime, exercise, and exploring. My property includes a walking trail, a river area, and an invisible fence system that helps provide an added layer of security while they enjoy the outdoors. Safety is always my top priority, and I make sure every pup is comfortable and cared for during outdoor activities. I love creating a home-away-from-home experience where dogs can relax, have fun, and receive personalized attention. Between my animal care background, grooming experience, and love for dogs, I’m committed to giving each pet the patience, care, and affection they deserve. I want owners to feel confident knowing their furry family members are in a safe, loving, and attentive environment. 🐾 When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every dog feels like part of the family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and individual needs so I can provide personalized care. My daily routine allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, including regular potty breaks, meals on schedule, playtime, exercise, enrichment activities, and lots of affection. I have 4 acres of outdoor space where dogs can enjoy supervised adventures, including a trail for walks, open areas to play, and access to nature while being protected by an invisible fence system for added security. I understand that every dog is different, so I follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, comfort preferences, and daily habits. My background as a certified dog groomer, along with my experience through FFA, agriculture classes, and working on a farm, has helped me understand animal behavior, safe handling, and the importance of patience and proper care. My goal is to provide a home-away-from-home experience where pets feel happy, relaxed, and loved while their owners have peace of mind knowing they are receiving dependable, attentive care. 🐾If a pet is crate-trained or an owner requests it, I can comfortably use crates for rest periods, meals, or bedtime to help maintain their normal routine. Throughout the day, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, and I work to keep their schedules as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease while away from home.
“Took care of my dog perfectly and wrote a letter pretending it was my dog telling me what he did when he was with her. Would recommend to anyone looking to have their pet watched.”

“Susan was wonderful and very communicative! She welcomed my pup with open arms and it was a last minute booking. Susan was very flexible and made me feel comfortable leaving my pup with her. I am so grateful and will be booking again!!”
“This was Sidney and Lex’s first stay here. They came home exhausted and looked happy in the pictures. They have a huge backyard which is great because our dogs would probably spend more time outside than inside if they could lol. Overall I think it went well and we will likely reach out to them again for future boarding needs.”
“First time using this app and I was very anxious because I have nv left my dog with strangers but Hali made sure to send me pics and videos of uno which helped a lot. She did not disappoint 🙌🏾 Thank you Hali 🫶🏾”
“Katie was great with my Simba. He's a big dog, but she was completely comfortable with him. He was so happy in her home for the three nights that he stayed. Everything went smoothly. Katie kept me updated with how he was doing and sent photos of him daily. Thank you Katie!! It was a relief to not have to worry about him while we were away.”
“Michelle is so amazing that our dog didn’t want to leave ? would highly recommend her to anyone. We can tell that our dog was loved and cared for as if he were one of her own.”
“I just cannot say enough good things about Amy and her care for my pup Beau. Above all else, Amy and Beau really connected, and seeing how comfortable and relaxed he was with her and her family gave me the ability enjoy my trip. Amy sent pictures of Beau enjoying his stay at least once a day. So glad to finally have found my dog person!”
“Danielle was great! She was very attentive to our dog Dylan, who stayed with her and her two pups for three nights, and Dylan got along with her dogs--Gunner and Ruby--swimmingly. She gave him his meds on schedule and took him for walks. She also greeted us outside when we arrived and invited us in, which was much appreciated. Oh, and she sent multiple pictures Dylan each day. We will use Danielle again.”
“This was my first time using Rover for pet sitting and Nicole couldn’t have been a better choice! She is well experienced with a wide range of dogs and my dog was immediately comfortable with her. She kept me updated and took great care of my pup. Thanks Nicole!”
