“Laura is wonderful! She is warm and kind, and our dog had an amazing time with her and Tucker. She kept in contact and sent us pictures and updates while we were away which was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you so much, Laura! We think the world of you!”
“Susan and her family were incredible! We have never left our boys with anyone who isn't family, but Susan took care of them as if they were. If you are looking for some place for your dogs to get plenty of love and attention while you are away, I absolutely recommend Susan! We have already booked our next stay with her.”
“Kendra was so great! We had a quick overnight trip as we were traveling through town and she was so easy to work with. She sent pictures to update us and we could tell our dog was SO comfortable with her. We will definitely reach to Kendra again next time we travel through.”
“My boys Hank and Clifford had a great time! Gina did a great job keeping us updated by sending photos and videos! She’s a dog person which is added comfort. I definitely recommend!”
“Megan is an absolute rockstar, phenomenal experience boarding my dog with her family! They have a great location, all of their dogs and chickens were very welcoming! She is knowledgable, experienced, flexible, great listener and very intuitive. When I picked up my pup she was happy and super comfy, and then passed out as soon as she got home because of all the fun! Highly recommend, I'll definitely be a repeat client! Thanks Megan and family!! ?”
“Christina was our little pup Shazam’s very first sitter over a decade ago during the dogvaycay.com days but when it transitioned to Rover, we couldn’t find her until just recently. So happy to have found her again and our now senior little guy Shazam still loved his time with her after all these years!”
“Jacob and his fiancée did such a wonderful job taking care of Teddy! He provided photos and updates often and I was confident he was being well taken care of. My puppy always looked so happy and like he was always having so much fun!”
“Hallie and her family were great! They watched over my two golden retriever pups while I was out of the county. She sent pics to keep me updated and it was nice that they were around other dogs during their stay. We will def have our pups stay with them again.”
“Being an owner of a small dog, I appreciate that Addie only sits for dogs under 15lbs. Another plus is that she works from home and is quick with responses to any questions I might have. The meet ‘n greet and sleepover went well so I will book with her again.”
“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”
“Millie loves going to see Megan’s family. I never worry if she’s well cared for. When my flight was delayed she was more than accommodating. Will never use anyone else🥰”
“Tianyu X. has been an absolutely wonderful Rover sitter for our dog, Scout. From the start, Tianyu was kind, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took the time to get to know Scout and treated her like she was her own pup. We loved that Tianyu safely introduced Scout to other small-breed dogs, giving her positive socialization and playtime. She also brushed Scout, took her on regular walks, and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. It was such a comfort knowing Scout was not only cared for, but truly loved. We received great updates and could tell Scout was having a fantastic time. We highly recommend Tianyu to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“As a first time Rover user I was very hesitant leaving my little love with a stranger! Ron put my worries at ease from the meet and greet until the end of my trip! He was phenomenal! He sent photos while I was away so I could see what everyone was up to, and one of his photos was the best picture that has ever been captured of Scout (and is now my phone background)! When my flight home was cancelled, he was very flexible and understanding! I can really tell Ron took care of Scout, because when I usually leave him with friends, he is hoarse from barking, but not with Ron! I'm beyond satisfied and will continue to book with Ron for future travels Scout can't participate in!”
“Kat and Corey did a great job hosting my dog over a long weekend! They sent daily updates and photos and kept her active on lots of adventures to the park, the lake, and on hikes. I will definitely book my dog with Kat and Corey again next time I go out of town.”
“Anne May is simply amazing. I cannot say enough how grateful I am to have found somebody who takes care of my little buddy so attentively and lovingly. I always have peace of mind when Ernie gets to stay with this great person.”
“I am so happy with the care Sarge received!! He’s little and old and I was nervous to leave him, but Kristin was kind and accommodating of his picky eating habits, and sent lovely updates. Absolutely will look to them again for our next trip!!!”
“Young was a wonderful sitter! My two pups stayed the weekend with him while I was out of town and I was really impressed with the whole experience! I received multiple updates, photos and videos of my boys throughout their stay, and it was clear they were having a fantastic time. We will definitely be back soon. Thank you for everything, Young!”
“Ivy took great care of our Maltese during our family trip in Reno. Her location is very convenient for those visiting the area, especially if staying at the Nugget or the GSR. Ivy was very loving and patient with our dog and eventually he warmed up to Ivy after less than two days. We will definitely book with Ivy again for future visits in Reno.”
“Faith took amazing care of my two cats for week while I was out of town. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. it She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped ease our mind while we were away. Both of our cats warmed up to her quickly and seem super relaxed the entire time! If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to look after your pets, she’s the right one!”

“Kiara was amazing with my cat, Ekko, and I’m so grateful for the care she provided. From our first meet and greet I could tell she had a natural way with him. She got his attention right away and started playing with him, which made me feel confident about leaving him in her care. While I was away, she was always punctual, reliable, and easy to communicate with. She sent detailed updates and plenty of photos, and her notes showed she was really paying attention to him. I always knew how he was eating, how he was playing, and what his mood was like, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Ekko clearly bonded with her. He warmed up quickly and it was clear she understood how to give him the affection he loves while also keeping up with his playful side. I also appreciated her flexibility. She was willing to adjust her visits when needed to make sure Ekko got enough attention, and she was respectful of my home so everything was in good order when I returned. Overall, Kiara went above and beyond. She is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares for the animals she looks after. She gave Ekko the love and attention I hope for in a sitter, and gave me complete peace of mind. I would absolutely book her again and recommend her to anyone who wants a sitter who will treat their pets with real care and kindness.”
About: I have hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition to dogs, I have experience handling and caring for cats and small animals, including rodents. Pet care is an important and fulfilling part of my weekly routine. I work a job, so I’m fully available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. If there is a change, I will notify you. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully, so both of our schedules align and so I can give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable by following their usual routine... feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and more. I give them as much love and affection as I would my own, always aiming to keep their tails wagging, etc. I treat every home with respect and make sure it stays secure and clean. I also send regular updates and photos to the owners so they can feel at ease, knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: For cats specifically I have lots of hands-on experience including a year of volunteering at a cat sanctuary feeding, socializing, and cleaning litter boxes for up to 30 cats of all ages and personalities. I also have two cats of my own that are 10 years old, so I have plenty experience with a variety of litter box setups and routines, as well as administering both pills or liquid medications. I understand that cats are very routine oriented animals, and I will make sure to stick to their routine and follow any special instructions that you leave for me to ensure they are comfortable while you’re away! Whether your cat is a social butterfly who wants lots of attention, or a shy kitty who prefers to keep their distance, I’ll respect their individual personality and let them set the pace. Cats are my one true love and I can’t wait to help care for yours!
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10 years old. Starting with walking my neighbors dog. Once I was able to drive I would do overnights with the families dog, that I nannied for. Small dogs, puppy dogs, big dogs, old dogs and kitty cats. Your little fur baby will be in great hands! I’m currently working full time. I can walk/ drop in Monday -Friday mornings at 7am and I’m available after work at 5:30pm for evening for walks/drop ins. The weekends are more flexible with time for walks and drop ins. I will be needing to pet sit at the location since I cannot have pets in my current house. I have only done pet sitting at the clients houses for the last 16 years. It makes for a better stay, the animals are not overwhelmed and happy to be in their own home.
“Danika was an absolute life-saver when our cat ended up going to the emergency vet just a few days before my family and I were going on vacation for a whole week after. As he recovered from his vet visit, he required constant care which involved multiple check-ins a day, monitoring how often he drank water, ate his food, and used the litter box. He also needed to be given 3 different medications on different time schedules, 2 of which required being administered with a syringe in his mouth. Danika was able to do all of this and even texted us updates after each visit to let us know how things were going. Her availability on such short notice along with her attention to detail and genuine love and care for our cat gave us the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our vacation without feeling worried the entire time. I would gladly book her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone else needing someone to look after their kitties. Huge props to Danika!”
About: Hello! My name is Meaganne, I’m 25 years old and I have been housesitting on and off since I was 13. I grew up with animals, so they have always had a special place in my heart. I have experience with pretty much any pet imaginable: dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, fish, reptiles, donkeys, you name it! I’m mature, professional, timely and clean. I am excited to have the opportunity to spend time with your beloved pet. I work Mon-Thursday but have availability to check on your furry one before and after, and at bedtime if needed. Friday-Sundays are free for more round the clock care. I am not offering boarding at this time, but am happy to come to your home for overnight stays or just periodic check-ins throughout the day!
About: With over 7 years of professional sitter experience, I’m the person you call when you have a very specific way that you like things done, and would really like to leave town without worrying about any of it😆 I genuinely love getting to know animals. I actually want the detailed instructions. My background is in private home management and personal concierge work, so looking after the house comes naturally to me too. If I’m staying in your home, I’m paying attention for mail and packages that may come in. Pet areas kept clean. Plants don't mysteriously die. Trash doesn't pile up. If something looks wrong, I notice it. I've cared for multiple-pet households, senior dogs, pets with special needs and homes during multi-month stays. I'm CPR/First Aid certified for cats and dogs, comfortable following medication routines, including oral and injected medications. I work remotely, which gives me an abundance of flexibility and means I actually do spend time with the animals I'm caring for😉 I work remotely, so I organize my schedule around the animals I'm caring for rather than trying to squeeze them into my day. Morning walk at 6:30? Fine. Medication with dinner? Can do. Your dog insists on conducting a complete neighborhood security inspection before bed? Why not? Because, apparently that's what we're doing! 🤷🏾♀️😆 I enjoy it and try to make it fun for your pet. I care for pets in their own home whenever possible and I follow your routines for meals, walks, medications, playtime, bedtime rituals, and all the little quirks that make your pet your pet. I’m also looking after the household while I’m there too. I keep things tidy, bring in packages, monitor the home, and make sure you return to happy pets and a cared-for space. I’m warm with animals and extremely self-sufficient. I'm also a good communicator. You're going to hear from me. You'll get photos, updates and anything important that comes up while you're away And if your dog happens to look suspiciously happy without you, I will gladly provide photo evidence. 😁
“Eshanki was great with our cats! They looked happy and relaxed when we got back. She sent daily photos and updates that really put us at ease, allowing us to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our cats were in good hands. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter!”

“Shawn was awesome taking care of my 7m old puppy. From corresponding to drop off, overnight stay and pick up, all were positive. My pup was happy upon pick up. I highly recommend Shawn.”
“My Phoebe had the best time while I had to leave out of town for 4 days. Young was very communicative through out the days, sending pictures and videos. 10/10 recommend”
“Jessica is fantastic! She made sure to arrange for our dog Andrey to meet their dog before doing daycare/boarding in order to make sure the pooches would get along happily, and they sure did. Their dog Cap is a cutie! Jessica took great care of Andrey, giving him lots of attention and supervising his happy playtime with Cap. Her home is an excellent environment, and she took Andrey on nice long walk as well. He came home happy, healthy, and tired, just like we'd hoped. I highly recommend Jessica to entrust with your pooch.”
“This was our first time booking through Rover.com and we cannot be more pleased! Wendy took excellent care of our animals while we were away and sent us frequent updates. Before our trip she came to meet our pets and review their needs. We felt very comfortable with leaving our fur-buddies in her capable and experienced hands.”
About: I’m a small-breed dog mom to two friendly Shih Tzus. I’ve trained both of them from puppyhood, so I’m experienced in teaching calm behavior, basic obedience, and creating a well-structured environment for small dogs. I’m happy to reinforce good manners. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced small-breed dog park within walking distance, and we go there every other day for playtime and socializing. Leonard and Taylor are both gentle, well-behaved, and great companions for visiting pups. My home is calm, clean, and ideal for small-breed dogs who enjoy a safe and friendly environment. I’m available full time for boarding on weekends and holidays. On weekdays, my two Shih Tzus—Leonard (born April 2024) and Taylor (born March 2025)—stay home from about 10am to 6pm. They are used to a calm routine and do very well together. If your dog is comfortable being without a human for part of the day, weekday boarding can also work. I live in a house with a fenced backyard and a fenced small-breed dog park within walking distance. We go there every other day for playtime and sniff walks. Both Leonard and Taylor are friendly, gentle Shih Tzus who make great company for visiting small dogs. My home is clean, safe, and perfect for small breeds. I also have both small and medium crates available if you prefer your dog crated.
About: I have owned and trained dogs of all ages. I currently have a 5 yr old purebred yellow lab who is a service dog. I have experience with behavior challenges and dogs with medical needs. I am dedicated and committed to caring for your pet as an extension of you. Our dog is with us almost 20+ hours a day so close to around the clock companionship and oversight will be provided. I have a fenced yard as well as a doggie door. Your fur baby will have everything he/she needs to be happy and loved. Consider it a doggy vacation resort.
About: Animals bring me peace and joy and I just can't help but want to be around them to support them. I have raised dogs and other animals throughout my life. I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.
“Faith is so nice for taking on our pup. I love the constant communication and I don’t have to worry about my pup when he’s with her. When I pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave. Definitely recommend faith if you’re looking for a sitter.”
“Very sweet, really cared about our dogs! It was our first time leaving our babies with anyone and we couldn’t have found better people to watch them. Will definitely be back”
“Gina and her family are wonderful. So caring, they are active with pets, and personable. Buddy was able to be himself, play and then kick-back and rest. Their yard is so doggie ready and Buddy made new friends. Very pleasant visit, Thank you!”

About: Hi! My name is Jessica, I'm 36 years old and currently living in Reno. I love being outside especially if I'm with my fur babies! I've had dogs since I was a child and I volunteered at Marin Humane and SFSPCA for years which was a great experience! It's helped me learn a lot about different dog personalities and traits to better handle and care for them. Toto is my 11 year old Cairn Terrier who loves hunting lizards, joining a zoom call or 2, and taking naps. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby :) Luckily I currently work from home full time with a very flexible schedule when it comes to walks, potty breaks, and snuggles. I also live in a community near multiple dog parks and walking paths. I will care for your dog the way that makes you and the animal feel the most comfortable, whether they like to be left alone in a crate for comfort or enjoy snuggles and scratches on the couch I cater to all needs! :)

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! He has quickly become such an important part of Zara’s routine. The second she realizes he’s at the door to pick her up, she completely loses her mind with excitement—it’s the sweetest thing to watch. She absolutely adores him, and it’s clear the feeling is mutual. He is incredibly patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. Knowing Zara is happy, loved, and so excited to spend time with him gives me complete peace of mind. It’s not easy finding someone you trust with your dog, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. We feel so lucky to have found him!”

“Rachel and Dylan are awesome! They respond quickly. They take great care of our fur babies! I can tell they actually enjoy our dogs and I feel like my dogs are happier when we get home compared to others in the past! We will definitely try to book them when we need our next Rover!!!”
About: I have always grown up with pets (dogs, cats, birds, fish…even a reptile or two!) I adopted my pup, Hurley, nearly 15 years ago and it has been one of my joys to have her in my life. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages, helping you practice any training you might be working on with your pooch, dispensing medications and other care needs, as well as keeping your furry friend safe if they have any anxieties or other difficult behaviors. While I am not a trainer, I have kept up regular formal, positive reinforcement training with my dog and we’ve also taken lots of fun classes like agility and nose training—meaning I know lots of fun games to keep your pup engaged during my visit. I also have experience caring for ducks and chickens, small reptiles and birds. I am a freelance consultant so my days tend to be pretty flexible. I am generally available throughout the day to care for your pooch. I am an attentive care-giver. I will follow all instructions, ensure your dog is safe in its environment—whether we are walking or playing. I have experience with dogs with medical or other special needs and will always ask about your preferences for care.
“Carrie is awesome. When I sent her a message, she responded back super fast and is great about communicating when she can or cannot walk my dog. She is always punctual and has a wonderful personality. 😊”

About: Worked closely with dogs and cats in a general practice veterinary clinic, developing a strong understanding of animal behavior, body language, and overall welfare. Gained experience recognizing signs of good health as well as changes in behavior or condition that may indicate illness or stress. Prioritized providing calm, compassionate care while ensuring each animal's safety and comfort, building confidence in handling pets with a variety of personalities and needs. I work full-time from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On those days, I'm available for check-ins or potty breaks before 7am or after 5:30pm, resulting in 8+ hours. On Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I have a much more flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits, potty breaks, walks, or playtime every couple of hours as needed. I'm committed to making sure each pet receives reliable care, attention, and plenty of love while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I take extra care to prevent escapes by being mindful around doors, gates, and leashes, and I always pay close attention to each pet's body language to help them feel comfortable and reduce fear or stress. I understand that every animal has a different personality, and I'm happy to work at their pace to build trust. For everyone's safety, I do not offer boarding in my home or bring my own pets to client homes, as I have a reactive dog and cats of my own. This allows me to give your pet my full attention in the environment where they are most comfortable.

About: Hi, I’m Kiara! I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and love. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, or making sure your pet gets fed and cared for on schedule, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they’re my own—lots of attention, cuddles, and care. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight pet sitting, I’ll make sure your pets get the exercise, love, and attention they deserve. I’m currently unemployed and a new first time mommy just trying to make ends meet. I am available 24/7 and I am okay with last minute bookings! When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure they stay on their usual routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll provide fresh food and water, clean up after them, and give them the love and attention they’re used to. For dogs, that means plenty of walks, playtime, and belly rubs to keep them happy and exercised. For cats, that could be play with their favorite toys, brushing, or just quiet company for more independent kitties. I always take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs—whether it’s an energetic pup who loves adventure or a shy cat who just needs gentle care. I’ll keep food and litter/walk areas tidy, follow your instructions closely, and keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or health. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured that your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, including both cats and dogs. I’ve been using Rover for years, and I genuinely love getting the chance to meet and care for new furry friends! I’m very attentive to their routines and schedules, and I always make sure to set aside plenty of time in my own schedule to give them the attention, care, and companionship they need. Since I work part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make plenty of time for pets. I’m available Wednesday through Saturday and can also care for pets before or after work on the other days. I enjoy having animals as part of my routine and am happy to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I provide care in the pet's own home, where they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure their space stays clean and that they have everything they need while their owners are away.
About: I’ve lived with both cats and dogs throughout my entire life, as well as helping out friends and family with pet-sitting and other things such as dog-walking since I was an early teenager. I’ve had experience giving pets medicine and have no issue at all cleaning up after them. I’m currently working part-time, 5 days a week, with most of my day being open besides the late afternoon. My shifts change pretty often but I’d love to work out a timeframe that would work with you! I’m more than comfortable house-sitting, and as long as your pet has no issues with other pets (Currently living with two golden retrievers) they’re more than welcome here. I always am available for just dog-walking and dropping in whenever needed!
“Thanks Faith. Mocha says she was very excited to see you and enjoyed her walks. Thanks for the promptness and the updates, we’ll be calling you when go out of town again.”
About: I have been working with animals my entire adult life, for the last 5 years. I have experience working in veterinary offices, as well as caring for senior and disabled pets in a home setting. I am available any day of the week at most hours. I am happy to go for a long walk or throw the ball for a high energy pet, or do a midday check-in for an elderly or disabled pet who just needs some extra attention. I find working with animals very fulfilling, and I would love to care for your pet! I am an online college student, so my schedule is very open for daytime dog walking and other drop in visits. I am available weekdays on short notice, and weekends with a few days notice. I am confident in reading animal body language and taking cues from pets so that they feel safe. I am happy to do repeated visits as long as I have met the owner once and have been able to communicate about your expectations and needs.

“Susan and her family were incredible! We have never left our boys with anyone who isn't family, but Susan took care of them as if they were. If you are looking for some place for your dogs to get plenty of love and attention while you are away, I absolutely recommend Susan! We have already booked our next stay with her.”
“My boys Hank and Clifford had a great time! Gina did a great job keeping us updated by sending photos and videos! She’s a dog person which is added comfort. I definitely recommend!”
“Megan is an absolute rockstar, phenomenal experience boarding my dog with her family! They have a great location, all of their dogs and chickens were very welcoming! She is knowledgable, experienced, flexible, great listener and very intuitive. When I picked up my pup she was happy and super comfy, and then passed out as soon as she got home because of all the fun! Highly recommend, I'll definitely be a repeat client! Thanks Megan and family!! ?”
“Christina was our little pup Shazam’s very first sitter over a decade ago during the dogvaycay.com days but when it transitioned to Rover, we couldn’t find her until just recently. So happy to have found her again and our now senior little guy Shazam still loved his time with her after all these years!”
“Jacob and his fiancée did such a wonderful job taking care of Teddy! He provided photos and updates often and I was confident he was being well taken care of. My puppy always looked so happy and like he was always having so much fun!”
“Hallie and her family were great! They watched over my two golden retriever pups while I was out of the county. She sent pics to keep me updated and it was nice that they were around other dogs during their stay. We will def have our pups stay with them again.”
“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”
“Millie loves going to see Megan’s family. I never worry if she’s well cared for. When my flight was delayed she was more than accommodating. Will never use anyone else🥰”
“Kat and Corey did a great job hosting my dog over a long weekend! They sent daily updates and photos and kept her active on lots of adventures to the park, the lake, and on hikes. I will definitely book my dog with Kat and Corey again next time I go out of town.”
“I am so happy with the care Sarge received!! He’s little and old and I was nervous to leave him, but Kristin was kind and accommodating of his picky eating habits, and sent lovely updates. Absolutely will look to them again for our next trip!!!”
“Ivy took great care of our Maltese during our family trip in Reno. Her location is very convenient for those visiting the area, especially if staying at the Nugget or the GSR. Ivy was very loving and patient with our dog and eventually he warmed up to Ivy after less than two days. We will definitely book with Ivy again for future visits in Reno.”
“Faith took amazing care of my two cats for week while I was out of town. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. it She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped ease our mind while we were away. Both of our cats warmed up to her quickly and seem super relaxed the entire time! If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to look after your pets, she’s the right one!”
“Lisa was great! She did slow introductions with our shy/timid puppy. By later that day, they were all playing and she was sending some awesome photos. Truly a relief to find someone as kind and passionate about dogs as anyone would hope to find. Thank you Lisa!”
“She was so kind to us and our dog. She did everything to make him feel comfortable while away from us and followed any extra accommodations we had. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to others!”
“If you want someone to love on your pups while you’re away, Wendy is the perfect person to do that. Charlie and Lola were well taken care of, always hydrated, and always had things to do. Thank you Wendy!”
“The perfect boarding experience. Aaron and Nicole took excellent care of my Bernese Mountain Dog. Aaron and Nicole are attentive and caring. I felt at ease leaving Jelly in their care. I’ll definitely book with Aaron and Nicole again.”
“Shannon and David were a delight to work with; prompt with availability, clear and responsive in communication, and so full of care and attention when watching Willa. For this past trip, I (the primary owner) was out of service and needed to connect Shannon and David with my partner. They were willing to accommodate this secondary contact. They also went above and beyond in picking Willa up from her previous sitter. All of the communication leading up to the trip made me feel like Willa would be in conscientious care and that proved true. Willa was excited to see me when I picked her up, but she also seemed at home and at ease. I highly recommend Shannon and David!”
