Personalized care for your dog or cat - La Cienega
Highly-rated overnight sitters - La Cienega
“I was very nervous to have to leave my cats overnight, especially since they can get nervous around strangers, but they came home still happy and calm. Mayra made me feel very confident in her ability to care and she did just that. Thank you!”
“I give Gavin the highest recommendation! He is the best! My puppy loved being with Gavin and Wana, who is Gavin's gentle and good-natured boxer. Gavin took really good and thorough care of my puppy. I totally trust him to make good choices. My puppy gave Gavin many "kisses" when we left. I will always call Gavin to board my pup if I have to go out of town!”
“Amanda was great. She is very friendly it is easy to see she is a dog lover. Amanda was very accommodating with my family emergency and my pups were looked after well. I will definitely look to her first next time.”
“Angel provided a lovely home and environment for our dog while we were away. We loved daily photos and updates about her time there, and our girl clearly had a wonderful time. Angel was organized, kind, and knowledgable, and we will absolutely book future doggie vacations with her. We are so fortunate to have found her!”
“Melinda was a fantastic dog sitter for Walter! He immediately felt right at home, even sitting on top of her laundry. She was great with providing us updates and Walter really enjoyed her yard and the other pups she was watching. Would absolutely have her watch Walter again!”
“Stephanie was wonderful for our first time using Rover! She was incredibly communicative and sent plenty of photos and updates during the four hours our dog, Fredo, was with her. Fredo has significant vision and hearing deficits along with high anxiety, and Stephanie was so patient in trying to navigate his unique needs. While the environment ultimately wasn’t the right fit for Fredo’s specific anxiety, I could tell he was in caring hands. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone in the Santa Fe area looking for an attentive, responsive, and kind sitter!”
“Our dogs LOVED their time with Katie. The meet and greet helped ease my worries (our one dog is a young puppy who hadn't been away from home before). We were able to see how she handles the dogs, her procedures for meal time and play time and were so impressed. Our dogs stayed two nights and we loved the photos via phone she sent us of our dogs happily playing and lounging with the others. We've not had a better boarding experience, thank you Katie!”
“Tami went above and beyond when one of our dogs, staying for over a week, was not on her best behavior. Tami coached her and soothed her until she finally calmed down. (It took a few days!!). There is a large yard and Tami is very experienced with all kinds of dogs, and she communicates extremely well. I highly recommend Tami.”
“Highly recommend Rachel! My puppy was so very happy, it was a caca for her. Every picture I received, Daisy Mae was smiling. Rachel added to my pups experiences with socializing and being around other humans ( she learned manners) I never expected to be so pleased! I will always book with Rachel!! Rachel is a fur babies Parent, dream come true!!”
“We needed a place for Finnley for a long holiday weekend. He absolutely enjoyed his college visit and came back with a higher education and some new tricks. Isabella was incredibly responsive and flexible with our schedule while taking amazing care of Finn and keeping us updated about his adventures. We think he is excited to go back and visit his new feline friend Prince.”
“We have continued to use Candace as she is great with our Chihuahua. Our pup wags her tail when we walk up Candace's steps to drop her off, that's when we know she's in great hands.”
“Laurie was just great in every aspect of boarding our pooch Mikey. She was very accommodating to our schedule and was quick to respond to calls and text. But most importantly, Laurie was fantastic with Mikey. One could immediately tell she is at ease with dogs. I would certainly use Laurie on our next visit to Prescott and recommend her to our friends with dogs. John and Nancy F.”
“Kendall was amazing! I was so nervous when I had a last minute work trip only a few days after one of my kitties had her spay surgery. not only did she take amazing care of her (and my other older cat), but she eased my concerns the entire time. I could really tell that she cared about my cats and their well being. She was also super communicative, and was able to last minute come and pick up/drop off my cats after I broke my elbow right before the trip (lots of crazy events one after the other!). thank you again Kendalll!”
“My cattle dog had a fantastic stay with Ian. She stayed over a week and came home happy and calm. I loved that he walked her and sent photos. A super experience for my young dog. Thank you Ian!”
“Heidi was wonderful to work with - flexible, communicative etc. And just terrific with my quirky little Yorkie, Ari. I am always uneasy leaving Ari with someone new for the first time, and this went so smoothly. He came back totally "himself": no re-adjustment period at all. Cannot recommend highly enough. Very much hope that Heidi is available the next time I travel!”
“What a guy! Iosif took great care of our senior dog during our last minute weekend away. He took care to send pictures and gave updates even though it was just a quick overnighter. Super flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off times. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Kelsey was so attentive to both our kitties and details of the home, engaged, and communicative. We will definitely be asking for her help with caring for our cats when we’re out of town. Thank you, Kelsey!”
“We arranged for Rhiannon to do drop-in visits to check on our cats while we were away. She was very reliable and responded rapidly to any communication. Highly recommended!”
“Jenna was a fantastic sitter for our 2 boys. We came home to a nice, tidy house and very happy kitties. She even reached out during our stay to let us know we running low on cat litter which was very much appreciated (thank goodness to Instantcart). We will definitely be booking with Jenna again!”
“Ian did a great job caring for our cat. He was prompt and efficient. He used the Rover system to let us know when he stopped by for his visits, and he sent pictures and text updates to let us know our cat was doing well. We'll use him again, for sure, and we highly recommend Ian as a petsitter!”
“I’m so glad Reiley was available to watch our kitties for us while we were traveling for the holidays again! He is so good with them, even our blind kitty who is usually very shy just loves him! Thank you so much, Reiley!”
“As always, Stephanie has been wonderful in looking after my Queen. Attentive and thorough, she spends good quality time making sure my owner is looked after. She always has time to play and love on Ember and looks after my plant friends too. So good knowing Stephanie is here to keep my queen happy when I am traveling.”
About: ***Please be sure to fill out your pet's entire profile and please do not ask me to contact you on an external phone number until you have been established as a client ; All initial communication must be through the Rover app or website*** Hi I'm Lana! I am trained in animal care and I have been pet sitting (mostly dogs) for more than 10 years. I think dogs are really special beings and beautiful companions. I enjoy being able to give pet parents peace of mind that their loved ones are being looked after with the utmost care and compassion. I have cared for dogs of various sizes, temperaments and ages. My naturally calm and patient disposition works well with most, especially dogs that may need more time and attention, such as shy dogs or older dogs. I am available for drop-in visits, overnights and walks. For walks and drop-in visits, I still have space open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Mondays and Fridays are packed. If you have any questions about specific dates and times please feel free to send me a message here on Rover. I prefer to care for pets in their own home because it offers them a sense of security during a difficult emotional time while their humans are away. **PLEASE NOTE** I am only offering overnights to existing clients of 4-6 weeks or more, I feel it is important for me and your animal companions to get to know each other before their family goes away.
About: Been taking care of pets since I was 8 by family, friends, and neighbors. Experience walking, feeding, bathing, and training reinforcement for high-energy or anxious pets. I am home for the summer working part time, so I will have plenty of time to care and play with any new fury friends. I can easily crate or harness your pet if needed. I’ve also worked with aggressive animals and know how to manage situations. Very reliable on following schedules and routines. I make sure they are fed, exercised, given plenty of attention, and kept safe while also keeping everything clean and proving updates to owners.
“Gavin really came through for us - 5 stars! This was our first time using Rover.com since we just got our cat in June. I have to say I was not impressed with how many people said they could cat sit and then backed out at the last minute. So it was literally the day before leaving the country for 14 days that we connected with Gavin. He was able to stop by and do the meet and greet as we were packing up the car. He was awesome - after getting the Rover cards the first couple days with pics, I was no longer worried and could enjoy my vacation. Thanks Gavin, we will definitely contact you for all of our pet sitting needs.”
“My little kitten man, Kai, is terrified of every human being on earth besides me. And apparently besides Christina! Kai liked her immediately. Instead of hiding when she came, he ran out from hiding and ran to her. Highly recommend. She took care of my cats and in turn, I was able to have a somewhat relaxed vacation without worrying about the little devils. Trustworthy, responsible, awesome!!!”
About: My family has had cats since I was just 7 years old. Though it turned out my Mom was severely allergic, we made some adjustments around the ranch so that we could still keep them and take care of them. At one time we even had 35 cats! My husband and his family also have cats, and I would be more than happy to pop in/check in on your furry friend. Though I’m allergic and can’t keep them overnight, I’ll be happy to check in on them as much as you need! I’ll be happy to send photos and updates as well. Let me know if you have any special requests so I can make sure your furry friend is all taken care of!
About: I have grown up with cats pet sat for my neighbors and help take care 14 cats at my dad office I also have a diabetic cat of my own I take care of. Every morning/evening I give my cat his insulin feed him and my other three make sure their litter boxes are clean and let them outside in my backyard for play time. we have a wall guarding our backyard and when letting the cats out I stay outside with them to watch make sure they are safe

“Angel did a great job. She was on time for visits, sent lots of photos and contacted me when necessary for questions. Through her communication she put my mind at ease that my kitties were being well cared for. I will use her again.”
“Literally the best. My dogs love her, and i appreciate her so much!!! She genuinely, GENUINELY cares about my dogs, and goes the extra mile to make them so happy. I couldn’t be more thankful!”

About: Hello! I have been a dog owner and have kept aquariums both as a hobby and professionally for 10+ years. I have over 425 volunteer hours logged combined as an aquarist with the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and with the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. As a personal assistant, baby sitter and dog sitter, I am professional, detail-oriented, friendly and motivated to engage with your pets and give the highest quality care I can. As of this summer, I have graduated with a Bachelors in Biology from UC Santa Cruz, where I worked within two different labs focused on invertebrate and fish research and husbandry tasks, as well as a front desk admin and floor manager at the Seymour Marine Discovery Center. I currently work as a contract field scientist with the Bureau of Land Management, based in Santa Fe. I have a clean driving record and my own vehicle, and am flexible for overnights and check-ins, though do reach out to me to confirm my availability. I am currently employed full-time with a nontraditional schedule, and will communicate with you on times I may need to be out of the house for work. I will go over with you a detailed questionnaire to determine all aspects of your pet's care and schedule, and send update messages at least once a day.
About: I’m a lifelong dog person who was selected by the cat distribution system three years ago, read I found an orange tabby under my mailbox. Two cats later (Snowball, a black cat, joined last year), I’ve fully converted. Through my own cats I’ve learned how much good communication matters when you’re away from your pets. I’m experienced with cats of different energy levels and needs, happy to accommodate medications, special diets, or any other requests. My goal is simple: make your cat not even notice you’re gone.

About: I am a reliable and compassionate pet sitter with experience in caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I can provide in-home pet sitting services, overnight stays, including feeding and walking. My pets and I have a consistent daily routine. We enjoy morning and evening walks around our pet-friendly apartment community, plenty of playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day to keep everyone happy and active. Your pet will be treated like family in a clean, calm, and safe apartment environment. I provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, fresh water, exercise, and plenty of love, ensuring they feel comfortable, relaxed, and secure during their stay.
“Anaissa is a true dog person and was an excellent sitter for our dog. We’re on an extended road trip and our dog has been feeling a bit stressed. Anaissa wasn’t phased and introduced our dog to others slowly. She kept us updated throughout the day, and we picked up a tired and happy pup. I highly recommend her!”
“Iosif was amazing! Great communication from start to finish sent me updates throughout the day with videos and pictures. Iosif was very careful and wanted to make sure that his dog and my dog got along and asked the appropriate questions I was traveling, but if I am in Santa Fe again, I need pet sitting he’ll be my first choice.”
“I am visiting Santa Fe from out of town, and Stephanie took care of my high-energy Labrador for the day. My dog came back to me clean and tired, and Stephanie sent me photos and updates throughout the day. I would definitely take Margot to her again!”
“Kendell is excellent! We were worried about finding a sitter during a road trip, and we are lucky that Kendell was available to sit Bella for a couple of hours! She is very attentive and took good care of Bella, and even left us a summary of the walks she took her on and how Bella did with her dinner. We are extremely grateful!”
“What a wonderful caring person Michelle is! A last minute booking and I felt totally confidant and at ease leaving our two dogs (including a special needs pup) with her. Happy tired dogs- the best!”
“Melissa was great! We were able to book her on short notice while visiting from out of town. She sent us tons of photos which we really appreciated. Easy to communicate with. And even made yogurt treats for our pup. Will definitely use her again ??”
About: Professional animal caretaker in the Santa Fe area. I love what I do and can assure you your animals will love me too! Dogs and cats alike. I currently have full availability to meet all of your animals' needs! Message me any time or day. Happy to help! Look forward to hearing from you :) Willing and able to follow all rules and show the utmost respect to you, your space, and most importantly your animals. Your babies your rules!
“Tami is the ideal dogsitter: she is compassionate, conscientious, and caring. She helped my young foundling/foster adjust and acclimate to a new environment and caregiver with sensitivity and ease. She connected with my pup immediately and introduced him to the pack in a gentle and fun-loving way. Her knowledge about dogs, her dog-centered environment and routine, and her caring pragmatic approach assured me my dog was in capable hands. I'm so glad to have found her as a resource for my Moonpie's care!”
“Allegra was a perfect host for our dog, Barley! We had to make kind of last minute plans and Allegra was very accommodating for our late daycare needs. She and her husband were super nice and clearly caring dog people, plus they have a very friendly dog who Barley got along with. We would recommend them to anyone!”
“Nancy is always amazing. We have come to depend on her doggy daycare for our sensitive dog. He always enjoys his stay and trusts her so he can rest. For our elderly dog, it’s so much better than trying to take him to a business where the dogs are moving around and barking and anxious. That is too exhausting for our dog. Nancy’s peaceful home is ideal.”
“My dog, Sissy is difficult to board as she's fearful and selective with both dogs and people. Melinda's quiet, easy manner was just what Sissy needs. Melinda didn't push anything and as a result Sissy was on her back asking for a belly rub shortly into her day visit. Melinda's dog, is completely and seemed to realize Sissy was scared. I'm hoping to book Melinda again soon for our 3 week upcoming Peru trip.”
“Thank you Angel and Jon for watching over Jo Jo. I appreciate your service, and I felt an immediate ease with you both and your lovely home. You are obviously experienced, with a caring love for animals. Thank you so much!”
“Our dog had great fun playing with the dogs at the sitter 😁. Laurie took them on a hike one day and our dog had a great time and was nice and tired out for a calm evening 😊. Lily was very excited to go back for her second day! You should be forewarned that her house is down a dirt road with ups and downs. Would definitely recommend this sitter for a social and energetic dog”
About: My pets growing up were 3 dogs Lacy, Maya and Frodo as well as many kitties. Oso was my Cat, we had him from the time I was 4-14years old. We also had a chicken coop we were responsible for, horses that were our landlords but that we fed, and a fish tank with guppies and sucker fish. My 1st gig watching someone else’s pet, was for an elderly woman at my church when I was about 12. Milo was an older golden retriever. I walked him, cleaned his outside restroom area, fed, bathed, and blow-dryed him. Family and friends have always reached out to me for help over the years, I have cared for Rottweilers, pit bulls, small dogs, handicap animals, both cats and dogs. I am great with communicating and accustomed to following the routines their owners have set for them as I believe that is most respectful. My schedule is 8am-1pm. So I am free all afternoons typically Mon-Thursday. Weekend hours vary for me but I am usually available either morning or night. I have stone floors 1 roll out carpet, and live in a non-smoking apartment. I have a small backyard with dirt area and kennel. Willing to do house visits as well! Don’t mind taking dogs to parks in my car either as long as it’s okay with the owner.
About: My husband and I have an Australian cattle dog and had a tabby cat who has crossed the rainbow road. I often care for my family members' dog when they are out of town. He requires special care, as he needs to take a few pills every day both day and night. This schedule is second nature to us. We enjoy being around our furry pals and will enjoy caring for yours too! They will be treated like our own pets and will benefit from being more socialized! I have a flexible schedule because I work from home and can easily adjust to your pets needs. I work a traditional schedule leaving my weekends especially open. I have a fenced in yard and our back door has a doggie door so your dog can go in and out as they please. We also have a large dog crate if your pet is kennel trained.

About: I grew up in a household with cats, dogs, small mammals, exotic and domestic birds, reptiles, and fish. I have experience as both a short and long term pet/house sitter. A large portion of my life has been spent working at pet stores, aquariums, wildlife rehabilitation facilities and with animal trainers so I have good background knowledge surrounding a large variety of animal care. By trade I am a biologist with a focus in the marine sciences. As a full-time field biologist, the field part of my job doesn’t allow me time to have pets of my own. So between field jobs I greatly enjoy the opportunity to pet sit since I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet! I feel that pet sitting is a great way to get some animal time in while also helping out. I am very attentive, caring, trustworthy, and dedicated. Every home has a routine and flow all its own, one of the most important things a sitter can do is maintain that rythem while the pet parent is away, and give lots of extra love too. Thank you for taking the time to review my information, I would be thrilled to speak with you about how we can work together to meet you and your pets needs.
“Angel takes such great care of our pup! She’s quick to respond and flexible with our schedule. Can tell from the pictures she sends that our dog is happy and enjoys walks with Angel.”

“Lana is great! Very communicative. Keeps me super up to date. Really goes above and beyond when trying to form a bond with a dog. My dog can be a stubborn and shy girl when it comes to new people, and Lana has really taken the time to let my dog get to know her with a great deal of patience.”
About: Since I was five years old I’ve had a dog. At the age of seven my family moved to a ranch where at one time we had up to 15 catahoula/pitbull mixes, labradors, and German Shepherds. I also volunteered for two years at an animal shelter in Bryan, TX. I have dealt with several dogs of different demeanors as well as given first aid to dogs with various injuries. Rest assured your dog will be safe with me! Hi there! I’ve just moved to Santa Fe, and I would be more than happy to watch your furry friend. I am actively job hunting, so I will let you know if I have an interview scheduled. I have one active Labrador retriever who is well-tempered and trained so there will not be many dogs. If I have another dog coming on the date you requested I will let you know in advance. I have a fenced yard with artificial turf and one energetic, playful, and well-tempered Labrador retriever. She’s spayed and fully vaccinated (+ the bordetella vaccine) of course, and loves to play! No history of aggression or dog fights, and she is well trained.
About: Bachelors in animal science, with an emphasis in companion animal care and medicine. Two years veterinary experience. I have companion animal training experience and education. Pet care is an important part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time to exercise, feeding, and monitoring pets’ health, ensuring they get the attention and care they need every day. This routine helps me stay connected with animals and maintain my skills in handling different needs, from playful puppies to senior pets requiring extra support. I provide attentive care by staying in owners’ homes or doing daily check-ins, ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in their own environment.

About: Just an FYI we can only sit for dogs that are 30 lbs or smaller, due to HOA rules in our condo complex. I have had and cared for a dog most of my life. I have never been dog sitting on Rover for a couple of years now, and have enjoyed it immensely. I love having dogs around. I am a stay at home mom, who is home a majority of the day. Russell, my husband, would also be caring for your dog, and he's great with dogs. We would love to have your pup over for a visit, while you are out of town. If you have any question, please feel free to ask. I do have a 4 year old son. He is great with dogs/pets. He used to dogs being around.We had a dog for his whole life. Unfortunately, our Charlie dog passed away last May. He was 11/12 years old. I am a stay at home mom, with a bookkeeping freelance business, so I am home most of the day. When I do work, my husband is usually home, except on Tuesdays. I have a 4 year old also, so I do have to take him and pick him up from preschool. We live in an apartment. We go outside often, and have no problems take dogs out. Our apartment is clean and tidy. I am good at following directions that may be given to care for you pup.
“Brittany is INCREDIBLE. She is made to be working with animals! I feel blessed to be able to leave my pup in her care when I’m at work. She’s professional, provides great updates (with photos), and is an all around wonderful human. I am so lucky to have found Brittany to care for my puppy.”

About: I love all animals and have extensive experience with cats and dogs, from personally owning them myself to volunteering with local shelters. I have done it all. I am pretty flexible. My daily routine already includes taking care of my 5 rescue cats, which includes feeding them and cleaning their litter areas. I like to make sure I make the pets feel at ease however I can. I know this experience can be anxiety-inducing, and I am patient with all kinds of personalities.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life so I understand the basics of training and taking care of them. I currently have an orange tabby named Prince who gets along super well with other dogs and cats! No worries if your pet doesn’t get along with others though, I can also have other people watch him while yours stays. I can care for pets whenever, I have classes throughout the week but since I stay on campus I’m never more than 5 minutes walking distance away from my dorm. On average I have about 3 hours of classes per week day so I’m home the rest of the time. I will be able to board always and do dog walks any day of the week. I have reliable transportation as well. My dorm is quite large so I have space to take care of pets, as well as toys and food and a litter box for cats if you can’t bring yours. I also live in a very outdoorsy campus so I can take dogs on long nature walks.
About: I started caring for horses,dogs and cats at age 15. We owned a ranch & I cared for all the animals daily. I had clients and friends who relied on me to care for their fur babies. Animals are family and I treat all animals with love and kindness. I also volunteer with the Humane Society and have done animal rescue during hurricane Rita, Katrina and Harvey as well as local rescues. Pet care has always been my passion since I was a child. In the past 3 years my parents passed & I am a breast cancer survivor so pet care is so close to my healing heart ♥ and brings joy to my life I will care for any animal at the owners home and stay over if owners want. I am active & I love to excercise. I will walk dogs several times a day. I am conscientious and respectful of peoples homes also.

“I give Gavin the highest recommendation! He is the best! My puppy loved being with Gavin and Wana, who is Gavin's gentle and good-natured boxer. Gavin took really good and thorough care of my puppy. I totally trust him to make good choices. My puppy gave Gavin many "kisses" when we left. I will always call Gavin to board my pup if I have to go out of town!”
“Amanda was great. She is very friendly it is easy to see she is a dog lover. Amanda was very accommodating with my family emergency and my pups were looked after well. I will definitely look to her first next time.”
“Angel provided a lovely home and environment for our dog while we were away. We loved daily photos and updates about her time there, and our girl clearly had a wonderful time. Angel was organized, kind, and knowledgable, and we will absolutely book future doggie vacations with her. We are so fortunate to have found her!”
“Melinda was a fantastic dog sitter for Walter! He immediately felt right at home, even sitting on top of her laundry. She was great with providing us updates and Walter really enjoyed her yard and the other pups she was watching. Would absolutely have her watch Walter again!”
“Stephanie was wonderful for our first time using Rover! She was incredibly communicative and sent plenty of photos and updates during the four hours our dog, Fredo, was with her. Fredo has significant vision and hearing deficits along with high anxiety, and Stephanie was so patient in trying to navigate his unique needs. While the environment ultimately wasn’t the right fit for Fredo’s specific anxiety, I could tell he was in caring hands. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone in the Santa Fe area looking for an attentive, responsive, and kind sitter!”
“Our dogs LOVED their time with Katie. The meet and greet helped ease my worries (our one dog is a young puppy who hadn't been away from home before). We were able to see how she handles the dogs, her procedures for meal time and play time and were so impressed. Our dogs stayed two nights and we loved the photos via phone she sent us of our dogs happily playing and lounging with the others. We've not had a better boarding experience, thank you Katie!”
“Tami went above and beyond when one of our dogs, staying for over a week, was not on her best behavior. Tami coached her and soothed her until she finally calmed down. (It took a few days!!). There is a large yard and Tami is very experienced with all kinds of dogs, and she communicates extremely well. I highly recommend Tami.”
“We needed a place for Finnley for a long holiday weekend. He absolutely enjoyed his college visit and came back with a higher education and some new tricks. Isabella was incredibly responsive and flexible with our schedule while taking amazing care of Finn and keeping us updated about his adventures. We think he is excited to go back and visit his new feline friend Prince.”
“My cattle dog had a fantastic stay with Ian. She stayed over a week and came home happy and calm. I loved that he walked her and sent photos. A super experience for my young dog. Thank you Ian!”
“Heidi was wonderful to work with - flexible, communicative etc. And just terrific with my quirky little Yorkie, Ari. I am always uneasy leaving Ari with someone new for the first time, and this went so smoothly. He came back totally "himself": no re-adjustment period at all. Cannot recommend highly enough. Very much hope that Heidi is available the next time I travel!”
“What a guy! Iosif took great care of our senior dog during our last minute weekend away. He took care to send pictures and gave updates even though it was just a quick overnighter. Super flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off times. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Charity is a wonderful dogsitter! Has a fenced in yard and takes lots of walks. Her adorable dog, Oatmeal, is so sweet and will play along if your dog wants him to. Sends lots of pics. Highly recommend.”
“Brooke was phenomenal. I feel lucky to have found her and think she's an absolute gem on this app. I will definitely be using her again to take care of Luna, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.”
“Michelle is great, I’d sit my dog Mamie with her anytime. Really responsive and conscientious, and she even gave my senior dog medication this weekend. Thanks Michelle.”
“Ashleigh was amazing! We had to board our dog for the weekend and she did a great job. She sent pictures and he was happy as can be when I picked him up. It was the first time boarding him with someone and we will be using her services again!”
“Sushi always has a great time at Jai's and returns exhausted from running around! Jai is amazing and treats Sushi as if she was his own. I know she gets tons of attention and exercise. Thanks!”
