“Christina and Nick are awesome sitters! Our dog stayed with them for several days and we can tell he was extremely well cared for. Christina sends lots of updates and photos, which made me feel so much more comfortable being away from my pup. She’s super responsive, understanding, and caring. Couldn’t recommend enough and will definitely use her for dog sitting again in the future!”
“Gargi & Sourav have been absolutely amazing. One of our furry kids was a bit nervous as I was dropping them off, so we were a bit nervous for them, but they have completely put out worries aside. The provided frequent daily updates on how our dogs were doing, brining up any questions or concerns along the way. Our dogs also really got along with their pets as well which made us happy that our dogs are also making friends. The dog park being right next to their apartment building is also a massive plus that helps with both social and energy levels of our dogs. They had a great stay and we as the owners had a relaxing worry free time. Would definitely book them again.”
“Janise and her family took the absolute BEST care of my Daisy! From the moment she arrived, I knew she was in the best hands. Daisy had so much fun that she didn’t even want to leave! She especially loved spending time with Frankie, their incredibly sweet and gentle Bernedoodle, and I know Daisy will miss him so much! I also can’t thank Janise and her family enough for being so accommodating when I unexpectedly needed to add an extra day of boarding at the last minute. They were incredibly kind and flexible, and throughout the entire stay, day and night, I knew Daisy was safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better family to care for my girl. I’m so grateful and would recommend Janise and her family to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We left our little girl Violet, a very loved 5 yo Lhasa Apso, in the care of Sandra and San this past weekend. From the moment Sandra and I met, I could see how loving and caring she was for her own adorable pup, Penny. We did a meet and greet and Violet and Penny got along beautifully! We knew Violet would be in good hands. Throughout the weekend, we received pictures and we could see just how comfortable and happy Violet was! When it was pickup time, all her belongings were together and packed for home. We felt comfortable, confident and excited to find a place we can trust for Violet when she can’t be with us! We highly recommend Sandra and San! Your pups will thank you for it too!”
“We were worried about boarding our dog with the sitter for the first time. Kinjal was kind and let us visit to check and introduce our dog 3 days beforehand. This meeting cleared all the doubts. Kinjal has natural abilities to understand dogs, she projects come energy that instilled calm in our dog. The pictures and videos confirmed that our dog was happy there. When we came back for pickup, our dog was following her and wasn't interested in going home. We definitely will use her service again in the future. Thank you, Kinjal.”
“Xunzi took my 2 cats at the drop of a hat! I booked the night before I needed them out of the house for a chemical treatment there after a fire. She did not just take care of them, but also paid attention to their psychological well-being, inviting us to visit them and slowly introduced them to her pets. She played with them and showered them with treats and food, replacing the inadequate one I had brought. A gem!”
“Rhinesca made my first dog sitting experience wonderful. She had excellent communication & sent pictures daily. My Kobe fell in love with her on the first visit. I would definitely recommend her & I attended to use her again.”
“Euitae was great with my puppy! Communicated with me well throughout the time, sent photos and videos. I felt comfortable leaving her with a new boarder and would work with Euitae again!”
“Ivette boarded our senior dog Sailor who was struggling with many health issues. Throughout his time with Ivette we received regular and detailed updates. It was obvious that she cared about his well being and did everything she could to make him comfortable. She has a lot of experience with dogs and catered to his needs in a lot of ways. Have no doubt that your pet will be in good hands!”
“Karla was incredible!!! This was our first time leaving our puppy with a dog sitter so we were super nervous but Karla was so friendly and reassured us constantly. She sent us tons of photos and kept us up to date on how he was doing. Our puppy is a little shy but he took to Karla super fast when they first met! He had tons of play time and made so many friends! He was so happy running around in the yard and we could tell he was having a wonderful time! Thank you so much Karla for making this such a great and positive experience for us :) we will be booking with you when we go traveling again for sure :) many many thanks !!!”
“Kun, his wife and their pup Som were incredible hosts to Thor! They were amazing communicators, consistently kept you updated, and were extremely mindful to ask about any health concerns, allergies or tendencies. Thor was very sad to leave them but he will definitely see them again! They also provided us with the cutest Polaroid photo of him and Som! Thank you both so much for allowing Thor to stay with you!!”
“We had such a great experience with Suzie. She took amazing care of our dog, Buzzy, while we were away. From the start, communication was clear and reassuring. She sent updates and photos about how he was doing, which really put us at ease. We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter.”
“Sarah is amazing - we needed a last minute booking on a holiday weekend, she responded quickly and made sure to ask all the right questions to be prepared for whatever our pup needed. When we brought him for drop off, he took to her immediately! Sarah sent pictures and updates each day that made us feel so much better while being away. You could tell it was a vacation for him as well. Overall a great experience and would absolutely recommend Sarah!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for many different pets. Growing up, I helped raise two family dogs and cats so I’m comfortable with both indoor pets and larger animals. For 13 years I was the proud mom to my Shih Tzu, Bruno, who taught me just how much love, patience, and daily care go into being a great pet parent. Though he recently passed🙏, the experience of caring for him still shapes how I look after every animal in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just making sure they’re comfortable and happy while you’re away, I’m here to give them the kind of care you’d want for them. I currently work remotely so I am able to give your pet all the attention they deserve and need. I can leave any time for walks and vet appointments. I’m a responsible and attentive caregiver who takes pet safety seriously. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and adapting to each pet’s individual needs.
“Maisha provides exceptional care for dogs. My dog, Asia, absolutely loves her, and I always feel confident knowing that Asia is in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment when she is with Maisha. Her genuine care, attention, and dedication give me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Maisha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog caregiver.”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“Could not recommend Sanaz enough, she is communicative, charismatic and reasonably flexible about drop off and pick up. We have a big, high energy dog and he came home a tired boy!”
“Eileen was great! She was able to take my reservation for a last minute vacation. She made sure to send me constant updates of my baby. She was attentive and extremely kind. I would definitely recommend!”
“Paola took excellent care of our little dog for a week while we were on vacation . She communicated daily with us and provided photos. Our dog was treated like part of her family. Jazzie came home happy and healthy! Will definitely book with Paola again!”
“Briana took care of our dog Happy for 9 days while we were on vacation. She did an amazing job, and we could tell that she and Happy had formed a nice bond. She was very responsive to our texts. We received photos every day of them playing, going on walks, and relaxing together. We did a video call as well to check in. Happy was very comfortable, and enjoyed her time under Brianna's care. We'll definitely hire Brianna again in the future.”

About: I’ve had animals all my life including cats, dogs, and I had a rabbit once. I’ve helped take care of sick dogs and cats, and have taken care of puppies and kittens. I was also apart of my animal club in high school where I got to donate to animal shelters and interacted with animals in that setting. I have a flexible schedule, so pet care can easily be a regular part of my day and week. I really enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to structure my routine around their needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and well taken care of while their family is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own! I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible.

My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.
About: I have always felt a strong connection to animals. I believe our pets are just as important as any other family member. I grew up with dogs and now have a puppy that I share with my partner who is quite truly our child. One of my recent clients said, "Rachel, you see animals as if they are little children, with personalities, feelings and emotions. I've never come across anyone that is as intuitive with them as you are". I'm that girl who will stop you in the middle of the street to pet your pup just because he or she looked at me. I want to give them as much love as I possibly can. My patience is my biggest asset and skill as a pet parent, sitter and dog walker. I want to give your pup the same attention as I give my own. I sit for both puppies, kitties and senior animals. I'm experienced with special care needs such as medication management or any other special care your animal may require. When I'm caring for your your pet(s) they becomes my family and I give them the gentle care and loyal love they deserve. PS. Our beloved Rocco passed over the rainbow bridge in early June. We are in the process of adopting another puppy. As a freelancer, I often have a flexible schedule and am happy to come up with a schedule that works for us both - weather you are looking for regular care or are simply taking a trip for the weekend and need someone to look after your fuzzball. I am able to provide sitting services at your home, walking sessions, drop-in visits or play dates. I live with my partner and am able to care for your pup in our home or in yours, the choice is yours. My partner is allergic to cats, so although, I am not able to board them in my home unfortunately. But, I am more than happy to board them in your home, drop by for a cuddle, play time, in home stay. I love going on walks and can play with your pets to make sure they stay happy and mentally enriched. I can also brush your pets hair for you, bathe them as well as give massages.
“Jinghong was absolutely amazing and took great care of my kitty! I came back to a very clean apartment and a very happy cat. I couldn’t be happier with her service!”

I love them all and can’t wait to meet yours! 😀 I have hybrid work environment so I'm home two out of the three days a week if needed. I'm free on most weekdays and weekends.

Constant monitoring of their health and behavior allows for prompt action in case of any emergencies, and I maintain open communication with the pet owner, providing regular updates and pictures.

“Victoria is a fantastic pet sitter. She cared for my two senior cats over two visits. One of my cats is blind and requires daily medications and eye drops, but Victoria helped me feel at ease while I was traveling. Victoria handled his care routine with such patience and attentiveness, and it was clear she took the time to make sure he was comfortable and stress-free. Her detailed Rover cards after each visit were so reassuring, and she sent plenty of photos so I could see for myself that both cats were happy and in good hands. Senior cats can come with extra needs and a little more complexity, and Victoria didn't miss a beat. If you have older pets or animals with special requirements, I would highly recommend Victoria. We'll definitely be booking again.”
“Anna has been watching my puppy a few times a week since she was about 4 months old and my puppy always has the best time. Anna is very thorough and follows all of my instructions regarding my dog’s care. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“I was away for 1 week with little phone service. Every night I had connection in hotel I checked in and saw all the great pictures of Victoria with my babies. I Highly recommend her she very sweet, sent great pictures daily and I was assured that my kitties got the attention and care they needed while I was on vacation. Thanks Victoria 💕🥰”
“Rivera provided the best care for my two cats! We never left home this long period of the time and concerned a lot about cats especially they are very shy. Rivera had patience and well understanding on cats so both of my cats ended up showing/playing with her. It was a big surprise for us to see my cats liked cuddling with her since they never even showed up when other people visits. Not only the social part with cats, also she wrote very detail cards on every visits with plenty pictures so I could relief. She was very responsive as well! We are happy with Rivera's care and would love to ask help again next time! Thank you!”

About: I've loved animals my whole life and have been around cats in one way or another for most of my life. I grew up with multiple cats and I've been taking care of my cat Cole since adopting her in 2018 as a kitten. I've been volunteering at a cat shelter for several years as a socializer and love visiting as many cats as I can when I'm there (I always stay longer than my shift). I love them dearly, always want what's best for them, and would treat your cat with the same care concern I'd treat for my own. I'd be happy to provide drop-in visits for feedings/etc or to provide your cat with some play/social time! I love meeting new cats and taking in their unique quirks! While I've had a lot more exposure to felines, I've spent time and cared for several dogs as well and would gladly care for yours while you are away. I've had a lot of good experiences with them - I’m good pals with my landlady's pitbull and my dad’s chocolate lab! I’ll give your dog lots of attention and be mindful of their personality, especially during walks. I’ve had some anxious ones that can get a bit testy when they see other dogs during walks and I’ve handled them well. I'm between jobs at the moment, so I am fairly flexible in terms of availability with some notice. Sunday is my day for volunteering, though I can swap my shift if need be to provide your pet with the care it needs. I'm happy to arrange for shorter/longer visits on single/recurring basis. Can assist with feedings, playtime or just hang out and provide them a loving lap! Also happy to provide photo/video updates of your fur babies to help put your mind(s) at ease!
“Ruth has been walking both of my dogs for the last couple of weeks and she’s been such a help to me and my family! She’s very punctual, has excellent communication, and is super reliable. Highly recommend!”
“Jinghong was a life saver! We had a last minute request and she worked with us to make it work and even made time for a meet and greet!! She gave multiple updates and made us feel comfortable trusting her with our pup. Cannot recommend enough!!”
“Yong was amazing!!! I’m always nervous about finding a new dog sitter/walker but Yong immediately put us at ease and my dog loved him. He was super dependable, gave lots of updates, always punctual and clearly loves animals and wants to take care of them. Will definitely reach out to again!”
“Ms. Xunzi was super kind and super wonderful the whole time my dog went for a walk with her! She kept me updated throughout the walk and sent me pictures as well. Definitely will book again! Thank you so much”

“This was my first time using Rover or any dog walking service, let alone have anyone aside from myself, dad, or brother take care of my pup. And I have ZERO regrets. My dad was supposed to stay with my dog for the long weekend I was away, but last minute he couldn’t and I needed a plan B. I came to Rover to see if I could find a solution and I did- Peter! My pup is very lovable but also not easy, and many are too scared or just don’t want to deal with him. Because of that, I wanted to do a meet and greet first, which Peter happily agreed to. After just one visit, I knew that not only could he handle my dog and he would be well-taken care of, but knew they both were about to become buds. I was able to go away and not have any worries, especially since Peter gave very thorough recaps of his visits and pictures. Needless to say, my heart and mind were put at ease and I can’t think him enough for that. I will definitely be utilizing his services in the future and I know Thor will not mind at all.”

About: Hi! We’re Lisa and Hojin, lifelong dog lovers who will welcome your pet into our home like a member of our family. Lisa’s love for animals began when she got her first dog at four years old. Since then, she has cared for many dogs and cats and gained hands-on experience with walking, feeding, bathing, and daily pet care. Her father is a veterinarian, so she grew up learning from him how to understand animals and care for them safely and attentively. Hojin is the primary caregiver and is available on both weekdays and weekends. He is an active and attentive dog dad who enjoys walks, playtime, and making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Lisa joins him on weekends, giving your pet even more companionship and affection. We currently share our home with Bacon, our sweet six-year-old neutered Corgi. We understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Whether your dog stays with us for daycare or boarding, or joins us for a walk, we’ll care for them with patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love—just as we do for Bacon. Hojin is available for pet care throughout the week, including both weekdays and weekends, so he can provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. Lisa helps care for our guests on weekends, providing additional companionship and affection. We can adjust our routine to match your dog’s usual feeding, walking, sleeping, and potty schedule as closely as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. We share our home with Bacon, our friendly six-year-old neutered Corgi. We introduce dogs carefully, supervise their interactions, and provide separate spaces or feeding areas when needed. We follow each owner’s instructions regarding meals, walks, medication, potty breaks, and sleeping arrangements. We do not routinely confine dogs in a crate, but we can follow your dog’s established crate routine if requested. We will also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.

All pets are important as are pet owners. We want to make everyone happy with regards to when we arrive. I, Cammie, complete all new client bookings and bookings that require medication or have animals present with special needs of some sort. You are dealing directly with me when communicating via the platform. To ensure your pet is safe and well taken care of, you should aim to use a full-time professional pet sitter that is trained and dedicated. Offered Services: *Kennel-free boarding (our place) *Overnight Stay (your home, 2 options) -Please ask how we can customize your animal's in-home care while you're away. *Drop-in Visits (non-vacation customers) -Can be daily or reoccurring bookings when the visit is not solely focused on walking the animal. For example, if you have a puppy and want me to stop by for 30min, 3x a week to play with and take the puppy out, then this would be considered a drop-in since puppies don't typically go on full blown 30min walks. *Dog Walks -Standard dog walks are 30 minutes and we start the timer as soon as we unlock your door. 1-hr long walks are limited availability and scheduled in the early mornings or late evenings, weekdays only. *Doggy Daycare -Available to clients only (those that have utilized other services, such as: dog walks or visits) *Please know that most services are negotiable for several pets within the same household (for example, if you have 6 cats). **About Me: I've always had animals in my life and over the years, thought I'd be a veterinarian. That never happened, of course, because I couldn't bare the cons of working with animals in that capacity. I began watching pets of friends and family in my free time and wholeheartedly enjoyed it. In January of 2022, my dad passed away unexpectedly from COVID-19 which left me torn to pieces. And somehow, after half of a year, I decided that I was going to focus on the aspects of my life that bring me the most joy. I had to. Before COVID-19, I signed up to Rover but was only acquiring strange/fake inquiries. I don't know why, but I decided to try again after my loss. This time, things took off very unexpectedly. Call it divine intervention or happenstance, but I know what I'm meant to do now and it involves what I've always loved-- animals. I'm happy to announce that I started my business in January of this year, 2023, and dedicate the majority of my time to loving on animals! I go to great lengths to plan and optimize my schedule so that I can give the highest level of service possible to you and your pets. I love what I do, and take this very seriously. When I go to your home, I will respect any and all rules laid out for me. Just let me know whatever you need, and I will get it done!
About: I have had dogs since I was 8 years old, from Standard Poodle’s, to Shih tzu’s, to Boxer/Bulldogs! I have tons of experience with pups of all sizes. At the moment, I have to amazing dogsLouie and Lennon. Louie is a Retriever/Setter mix and Lennon and is Coonhound, both rescues. I have had Louie from 8 weeks old and am a pro with puppies and older dogs alike. Before my two loves, I had a Boxer/Bulldog mix Hudson. She was the epitome of a “gentle giant”. I know it sounds cliche, but large of small, I really do love every single one of them! I am currently working Freelance and am able to adjust my schedule as needed to provide the best care for your pups. I also love to run and love to friends come with me! I have a fenced in yard and two super friendly pups at home. If needed I can use a crate for your (or my!) pups if needed. Whatever matches the level of care they receive at home.
About: Open, adaptable daytime schedule that allows for prompt visits without rushing through routine care. Prompt, detailed updates after every walk or drop in, so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you're away. As a student with an extremely flexible and light class schedule, pet care is my primary focus. I’m available throughout most of the day for midday dog walks, routine drop in visits, and last minute requests. Because I am not tied to a traditional 9-to-5 job, I can match your dog or cat’s exact schedule for feeding, exercise, and playtime without rushing I provide attentive, reliable care right in your pet's safe environment. For drop in visits, I handle all feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard cleanup, and plenty of undivided attention. For dog walking, I tailor the pace and route to your dog's energy level, making sure they get safe exercise and mental stimulation. I always double check locked doors, secure leashes, and send detailed photo updates before I leave so you have complete peace of mind.
About: My journey with caring for pets finally began in my undergraduate career at Rutgers University. Previously, I had helped to care for my aunts pets and took care of my own until we had to give him away. My favorite thing about taking care of your favorite family member is how I can see them adapt to a new environment and warm up to me. It’s beautiful to know that we can all connect w animals in an intimate way. I have a park right next to my house and a wooded area & fenced field where they can run around freely. Making sure they are having a good time and are healthy is my main priority. Dog loving is what I was made for.

“Christina and Nick are awesome sitters! Our dog stayed with them for several days and we can tell he was extremely well cared for. Christina sends lots of updates and photos, which made me feel so much more comfortable being away from my pup. She’s super responsive, understanding, and caring. Couldn’t recommend enough and will definitely use her for dog sitting again in the future!”
“Gargi & Sourav have been absolutely amazing. One of our furry kids was a bit nervous as I was dropping them off, so we were a bit nervous for them, but they have completely put out worries aside. The provided frequent daily updates on how our dogs were doing, brining up any questions or concerns along the way. Our dogs also really got along with their pets as well which made us happy that our dogs are also making friends. The dog park being right next to their apartment building is also a massive plus that helps with both social and energy levels of our dogs. They had a great stay and we as the owners had a relaxing worry free time. Would definitely book them again.”
“We were worried about boarding our dog with the sitter for the first time. Kinjal was kind and let us visit to check and introduce our dog 3 days beforehand. This meeting cleared all the doubts. Kinjal has natural abilities to understand dogs, she projects come energy that instilled calm in our dog. The pictures and videos confirmed that our dog was happy there. When we came back for pickup, our dog was following her and wasn't interested in going home. We definitely will use her service again in the future. Thank you, Kinjal.”
“Xunzi took my 2 cats at the drop of a hat! I booked the night before I needed them out of the house for a chemical treatment there after a fire. She did not just take care of them, but also paid attention to their psychological well-being, inviting us to visit them and slowly introduced them to her pets. She played with them and showered them with treats and food, replacing the inadequate one I had brought. A gem!”
“Ivette boarded our senior dog Sailor who was struggling with many health issues. Throughout his time with Ivette we received regular and detailed updates. It was obvious that she cared about his well being and did everything she could to make him comfortable. She has a lot of experience with dogs and catered to his needs in a lot of ways. Have no doubt that your pet will be in good hands!”
“Karla was incredible!!! This was our first time leaving our puppy with a dog sitter so we were super nervous but Karla was so friendly and reassured us constantly. She sent us tons of photos and kept us up to date on how he was doing. Our puppy is a little shy but he took to Karla super fast when they first met! He had tons of play time and made so many friends! He was so happy running around in the yard and we could tell he was having a wonderful time! Thank you so much Karla for making this such a great and positive experience for us :) we will be booking with you when we go traveling again for sure :) many many thanks !!!”
“Sarah is amazing - we needed a last minute booking on a holiday weekend, she responded quickly and made sure to ask all the right questions to be prepared for whatever our pup needed. When we brought him for drop off, he took to her immediately! Sarah sent pictures and updates each day that made us feel so much better while being away. You could tell it was a vacation for him as well. Overall a great experience and would absolutely recommend Sarah!”
“Eileen was great! She was able to take my reservation for a last minute vacation. She made sure to send me constant updates of my baby. She was attentive and extremely kind. I would definitely recommend!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a teenager. My own, family and friends. I feed them, walk them, bathe them, and even hand feed them if necessary. I work hybrid and I can care for pets Monday to Saturday from 8 to 6 pm for now. I can do some weekends if arrangements are made in advance. My backyard is fenced, we have plenty of indoor space for the pet to use and I can crate your pet if have them accustomed to it. We have a central air conditioning for those hot days.
“Amanda was an amazing caregiver for our dog! She kept us updated with plenty of photos and regular check-ins, which gave us so much peace of mind during our vacation. It was clear from the start that she truly loves and cares for animals—just like she does for her own cat and family. We never had to worry for a second, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”
“Amarys was amazing with my dog, Diamond! She took such great care of her, played with her, took her on lots of walks, and kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Diamond was. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Diamond absolutely loved her. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Amarys again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Experienced dog family! Took great care of our big boy! Sent lots of updates and pictures. I have a big boy who loves to spend the days outside and their fenced in yard gave him lots of room to explore! They are real dog people and I felt 100% confident my dog was in good hands!”
“We left our two dogs at Enis' over the weekend and everything was great! Enis is very responsive, accommodated our schedule, and took great care of Ivan & Sketch! We also got several pictures of them over the weekend. They seemed to be happy and relaxed :)”
“Alyona is very kind, understanding and had me at ease knowing that my boys was in her care. I received plenty of pictures and communicated with her while I was away and knew that tigger, prince and lucky would have a great time with Alyona. My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”
“I was a bit skeptical using Rover, and a bit nervous to leave Dilon. Paloma explained the process and was very helpful. I loved that Dilon stayed in good hands and I was able to have peace of mind. Paloma kept me informed of Dilon’s day to day, she would answer promptly to the messages and would also send pictures regularly. Thank you again for taking good care of Dilon.”
“Sarah and Danny were extremely kind and communicative. They sent plenty of photos and updates throughout my dog’s stay, putting my mind at ease. I would definitely use them again.”
“Sherrie was wonderful! She’s excellent with routine. She asked all the right questions, followed all instructions, and is a true animal lover. We wanted a mature and responsible caregiver and after our meet & greet we were positive we found The One. After seeing Sherrie with her own sweet dog, we could tell how committed and wonderful she is as a pet owner. Thank you so much to Sherrie and her finance. ❤️ They made our trip worry free and we will book again.”
“They were extremely accommodating with our pick up and drop off schedule. I have used river maybe five or six times in the past, and that last time I use them I had a very bad experience with poor communication and people were so polite and had a beautiful property and kept in constant communication with plenty of pictures and when it was time for me to pick up my dog, we had a lot of traffic and we’re over an hour late and they were happy to oblige. I will definitely leave my stellar with him anytime and I plan to leave her with them in the future anytime I need a sitter. They sent me lots of pictures. They even went as far as printing out some pictures for us, and they gave Stella a little bandanna like she would have when she left a groomer. They were very polite and had a great backyard, and my dog was very happy when I picked her up, so I know that they treated her well. They are definitely an A+ sitter. I highly recommend them and I have used the multiple times was good and bad and I had nothing but good things to say about them.”
