“This is my second time having my fur baby with Sue. It was a much longer visit this time (a week) amd Sue remained her kind communicative self. Would recommend in a heartbeat. She goes above and beyond. Thank you! 💕”
“Erika was amazing. She kept me posted all the time with pictures and she helped my boy with his anxiety of staying away from us. The peace of mind of finding someone we can trust our dog with its really the best.”
“Nicole and her family took wonderful care of our girls, Bailey and Ruby. Highly recommend her. She provided dailey pictures which showed the care our girls received. Will use her services whenever we go out of town.”
“Rachael was so good with Swift! He can be a little much, but she took him for lots of hikes and play time and he came home tired, happy, and better behaved. You can tell she loves what she does.”
“Saori took fantastic care of our large doodle Toby for two weeks while we were traveling. We received daily updates with pictures and videos, which was really great. Toby had so much fun and will be going back next time we travel. I highly recommend Saori to anyone who needs a skilled and kind person to care of their pet.”
“Rich was incredibly kind and took great care of our pups. Booking was easy & everything went very well. Our dogs loved his property (lots of outdoor space!) and it was nice for them to get used to being around other dogs. Rich sent us photos of our dogs throughout their stay with him. They looked happy & content. Great experience 😊”
“Athena, watched my two pups for 5 days! She was great, she came to pick up and drop the pups. She sent me daily photos and updates of them! Very friendly and my pups spent a great time with her! I highly recommend!”
“Ryan EXCEEDED my expectations! He has an intuitive way with dogs. He is very knowledgable about dogs & dog behavior. Ryan is the real deal-- a true animal lover & kind, decent human being. He communicated well with pics and updates during my dog's visit. During our initial meeting I felt an instant rapport he had with my dog that put me at ease. His home is VERY dog-centric! The visiting dogs are not confined and are free to mingle and find their own place to relax. There are ample dog beds, couches, human beds and floor space for lounging and sleeping. I especially appreciate that Ryan limits the number of dogs he boards at one time to a very small group, & makes sure they vibe well together beforehand. The living space Ryan and his boarders occupy is all on one level, which is great for my dog with arthritis. There is a wooded trail for walks adjoining the yard, and a guest bedroom if a dog needs some quiet alone time. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and I plan to use him again!”
“Fabulous experience, my 2 Bernese Mountain Dogs LOVED< LOVED< LOVED Kyle! They didn't really want to leave, either! Kyle is the quintessential laid back dog lover....will definitely hire him again!”
“We are truly grateful to Lily for the loving care she gave to our little dog, Kodi. During Kodi's stay with Lily, she sent us daily pictures & videos of our pet. Clearly, he had a fantastic time with Lily & her lovely family. We really appreciated the thoughtfulness of her daily communications with us & all the care she gave to our little pet. Lily's an outstanding care taker.”
“Rosemarie is so sweet, and warm, and clearly takes watching dogs seriously. She was careful to get to know Ollie's habits and routines. She sent lots of pictures of Ollie having fun and relaxing with her family. I would have no hesitation to have Rosmarie watch Ollie again. She is wonderful!!”
“I could not be more pleased with the care that my italian greyhound, Zeus, received when in Annette's care for the first time over this weekend. Zeus warmed up to her immediately, which is unusual for him. I received multiple photos during his stay and he appeared very content and happy. What a feeling of comfort knowing he was with someone who provided the same level of care that I do, or very possibly better. A magnificent experience!”
“I had a last minute request and Jomini responded almost immediately and saved the day. She asked questions to make sure my dog had the proper precautions to be outdoors at her place and checked with me about any specific schedule before drop off. She was super responsive and flexible with timing for drop off / pick up. She sent so many pictures of my dog and I could see he was having a great time!”
“Katharine is wonderful! We love the constant updates and pictures throughout the day letting us know how happy our dog is with her! She’s always so accommodating and Alfie cannot wait to stay again.”
“Natasha and Hamir took such great care of Minnie! They are so sweet and clearly very knowledgeable about dogs and are “dog people.” My dog was instantly comfortable when she met them, which put me at ease. They really treated Minnie like their own and kept me updated while I was away. We will definitely be back. Thanks for everything!”
“Laura, Carolina and Enrique are the best! I know because my dog, Calie, told me so! And I can explain. During her visit they send pictures of Calie hanging out and enjoying her stay. It’s clear from the pictures that she is happy and content. And when we arrive to take Calie home she’s always very relaxed and in no rush to leave their home. I would highly recommend Laura, Carolina and Enrique!”

“Melissa made us feel so comfortable knowing our dog was being so well taken care of. Her updates and pictures are great. She is reliable and compassionate. Thank you Melissa!”
“Sara is amazing! I’ve never left my cats with anyone other than family but Sara immediately understood personalities and preferences. She shared updates and pics for all her check-ins which gave me peace of mind. I’ve already booked her for my next trip away. Highly recommend Sara if you’re looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Rhea was excellent - on time, responsive, took plenty of photos and from those photos I could tell that my cat was enjoying his time with her. Would absolutely hire again - thank you!”
“Finally found another really great cat person. Kelsey is fantastic! She is dependable and cat savvy. Kelsey also took care of our plants. We returned home to two calm and contented felines. Doesn’t appear that they missed us very much (:”
“Hallie did a wonderful job checking in on our cat Biscuits while we were away for a week. I loved the daily reports and photos she sent, and she even watered my plants, which was so nice! It was such a relief to know our cat was in excellent hands while we were out of town, and I can only hope she’s available next time we need someone to check in on Biscuits! Thank you so much, Hallie!”
About: I have had dogs, cats, puppies in my life since I was born. I have had the pleasure of training all types of dogs in many different areas. When I was younger my family used to always take trips up to Marthas Vineyard, we always had to leave our dogs at a kennel which we realized later on was not the best thing to do for our dogs. Emotionally/mentally we could tell it had taken a toll on them, so we started leaving them home with Pet Sitters. That was the best decision we had made. I want to be able to provide the same love and care that our pet sitters have provided in the past, but for your pet! Im currently working privately as a Personal Trainer and a Hypnotherapist Practitioner so my schedule is quite flexible. I also offer Reiki for both people and pets (Dogs, Cats, Horses)!!! I don’t typically board pets but would be willing to work with someone if the situation was right. I am also willing and able to crate your pet if thats something you do in your home!
“Chloe was great at caring for Wilbur and Mesu! Mesu being the "old man", has also been very apprehensive of strangers. I swore Chloe wouldn't even get the chance to meet him. Yet, he came out t9lo greet her and even allowed for scratches! Chloe always showed up on time, and went above to make sure both cats were comfortable.”
“We can always count on Maria to take care of our 2 cats while we’re away. This is our third time with her and we trust her completely, she has done an amazing job every time! A bonus is she sends the best pictures of your pets while you’re away - which we really appreciate since we miss them so much! Thank you Maria!”
About: I had a cat of my own and I regularly cat sit for my family! I have experience with a variety of cat personalities! I understand that every cat is different and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I'm committed to giving your cat the same care and affection I would give my own.
“Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I could walk, so caring for animals has always felt second nature. I also volunteer as a dog walker, socializer, and trainer at Danbury Animal Welfare Society, where I work with dogs of different temperaments, energy levels, and needs. My style is calm, patient, and attentive, whether your dog needs a real exercise walk, your cat needs a quiet check-in, or your older pet just needs someone gentle and consistent. I know trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal, so I take reliability seriously. I’ll show up when I say I will, pay attention to your pet’s routine, and send clear updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and cared for. I currently work full time, but my evenings and weekends are often free. I’m a good fit for weekend walks, evening check-ins, drop-in visits, and occasional pet care when your regular routine needs extra support. Because I value reliability, I only accept bookings I know I can show up for fully and on time. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language, comfort level, routines, and boundaries, and I never force interactions with people, dogs, or unfamiliar situations. For walks, I keep dogs securely leashed, avoid unsafe areas, and adjust the pace to the dog’s age, energy, and temperament. I’m comfortable with shy, anxious, energetic, and older pets, and I believe patience and consistency go a long way. For drop-ins, I’ll respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, check food, water, litter, doors, and gates, and send clear updates so you know how your pet is doing.
About: I currently have two long-haired domestic cats that my family and I adopted four years ago. But my cat mom life began 27 years ago when my parents brought home a kitten. He lived a healthy, active life for 15 years before he developed feline diabetes. For the last two years of his life, he received daily injections, so I am familiar with giving cats injections. Maintaining access to clean water, quality food and snacks, and a clean litter is paramount to a long healthy life for cats. I am ready and more than able to make sure your cat has access to these things while you are away.

About: Hello! My name is Daphne. Since I was a little girl, I have had a huge passion and love for dogs. I have grown up with bully breeds for my entire life. From Rottweilers to Pit bulls, to American Bulldogs. I currently have an Olde English Bulldog who is the princess of our family. I have a huge love for dogs but specifically bully breeds. I understand how strong they are when going for walks and how much love they have to give. I have experience working at a dog kennel in Putnam Valley taking care of multiple dogs at a time, big and small. I also take care of my neighbors 3 black labs when she is away multiple times a year. I also am available to board cat’s inside my home/room. I have watched extended family members cats in my room and am extremely comfortable. I currently work remote so I am available any time during the weekday. I do require a few days advanced noticed so I can plan my schedule! I am able to provide fresh food and water for dogs. I will also ensure dogs get regular walks and exercise as per their usual routine.
“Dew goes above and beyond for my puppy. Checks in regularly when he is in her care and even checks in when he is at home. As a first time user of a dog-sitter, I was anxious about leaving my puppy in someone else’s care. Dew almost immediately alleviated my concerns. I feel like her care has been a major benefit for me and for my puppy’s social development. Will continue to take advantage of Dew’s services for the foreseeable future. Highly recommended!”
“Rich was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. This is coming from a dog mom who was very nervous about leaving her baby. This is the first time for our Romeo and Rich absolutely and completely understood my concern. We had a meet and greet and Rich and Romeo bonded from the very beginning. Romeo spent the day with Rich yesterday and from the photos and videos sent, Romeo had a blast! He did not want to leave. I highly recommend Rich and I am DEFINITELY using him from this point forward. Rich, see you TOMORROW! Thank you for easing me. Knowing Romeo is in good hands is a huge relief.”
“Fergus our 1 year old had a wonderful time at Kyle's. He played all day and was very comfortable there. We will definitely book again and build up some overnights.Its a great relief to have found a safe place and a caring dog lover to watch him.”
“Highly recommend! My baby was well taken care of! Tinaclem was super friendly. When we arrived she introduced her dog with mine and brought them both to the back yard so she can get familiar with the yard and was very welcoming! Many walks and lots of pics for updates! ❤️My baby was pooped for days! She already misses Elvis! Sweet dog she has!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I previously worked at a dog kennel, where I gained experience with feeding, exercise, and providing a safe environment for pets. I also regularly dog sit and cat sit for friends and family, caring for their pets as if they were my own. I'm reliable and committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away I decided not to work full time the summer before starting law school!

For my home specifically, I have one dog who is very friendly and loves other dogs!
About: Hello I have been watching dogs for several years now. I truly love the companionship of dogs. I have watched many breeds of dogs including Labradors, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, you name it. I have many dog toys at home and a sizeable yard for the dog to go potty in. I also have a large home so your pet will have plenty of space to roam around. I will send pictures daily and let you know how your dog is doing. If your dog has any special needs or requires any sort of medical attention I will be there to provide the required assistance. I also have a small dog at home and she loves the company of other dogs. I hope to hear from you soon!
About: I have taken care of dogs and various other pets my whole adult life. I believe trust is the most important thing when it comes to leaving your pets with a sitter and I can assure you I will treat your pets like I would my own, with love and respect. Your dog will be staying in a family style boarding situation, where they get the love and attention from myself, my husband and our 2 children (7 and 10) who adore helping out with all the pups. We have a large fenced in back yard for lots of supervised running, playing and sniffing! I am trained in obedience training and can provide puppy socialization. Please reach out to me with any questions or to schedule a meeting! Boarding is always available. I am available weekdays after 8:30 am - 3:30 pm for walks, drop ins, puppy socialization or obedience training.

“Isabelle was great with Jimmy! We just moved to the area and she was able to watch our dog for the day and she was great about sending updates and letting us know how he was doing.”
“Briana was amazing! We came from California to NY and was our first time traveling with Miklo. It was a great experience! I would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a good pet nanny in the Patterson area, she was super sweet and very communicative and from the looks of it my pup looked like he had the best time!! It was my first time using Rover, but thanks to this experience I’m looking forward to booking again! Thanks Briana!! <3”
About: I currently own two dogs a mini Australian Shepard and a cocker spaniel. But, my family is a huge dog loving family and I have also owned labs, retrievers, and collies. I have a fenced backyard with a doggy door that holds about an acre of land and I live on a very quiet road with hiking trails across from my house that I bring my dogs into all the time! I’m work 3 times a week at Ridgewood Country Club in Danbury. I can leave during my breaks to tend to your pets. If they are staying at my home I have a doggy door and fenced in backyard. And then the remainder of the week I am free! I have a doggy door inside my home with a fenced in backyard for the 3 days I can’t be at home all day long. All other days I would love to take the dogs hiking and make sure they have a great time! I do own two dogs that are very friendly. But they can also be seperated into my basement if other dog is not friends with them. I also have a lot of experience with cat sitting my neighbors cats.
About: Our business has been booming with referrals and friends/family requests. Since dogs bring so much joy to life, I am dedicating more time to open bookings to new pets. I am a dog lover for a lifetime. As a kid, I would care for strays. As an adult, I have had a dog in my life for the past 30 years- I have adopted 3 full grown, mature labs from various shelters and they all had a great, long life! My current Lab is our sitting “mascot” and she welcomes all dogs to our homestay center. She was an adoptee from an elderly couple. My young adult son & dog-lover is a great co-host to care for and play with your pet. Pets are like family here and they will be loved, cared for and respected. We will give play, attention, exercise, love and create a setting where your pet feels comfortable and not stressed. We should do a meet and greet with our dogs prior to first boarding. The yard here is fully fenced, but I only let dogs out in the yard with supervision. I will give walks/hikes, as you like. Your dog can sleep and hang-out in whatever area of the house is comfortable to him or her. If they prefer a crate, we can. If they prefer their own room, they can have my lower level finished room. If they like to mix it up with the family they can. We cater to your dog and help to diminish their stress and let them be themselves. If the pup is stressed and needs extra attention at night, they can sleep in the bedroom, ( sometimes on the bed, only if you allow that) . I have cared for multiple senior and special needs dogs, providing medication, and special care routines. We look forward to getting to know your loving pet and offering them a home away from home! Pet Care is a dominant share of our daily lives. Someone is here most of the day, so lots of interaction and attention is provided. If we run out , here or there ( as you would at home) each dog get’s their own space to hang-out. Dogs visiting from different families are only together, when supervised. My Home-Away-Vacay-Stay has a fully fenced yard with plenty of toys. Run of the house and cuddles with our family make your pup feel at home.
About: I have being working with animals for many years with dogs and cats as professional groomer, dog sitting also fostering kittens but due to back surgery I am off work for 2 years, I decided to give a try taking care of dogs in my home, I have dogs of my own, they’re very friendly with other animals, I will take care of your dog just as good I will take care of mines. My house is safe, I have fence and a dog door that goes to 10x20 kennel at any time in case they need to use the bathroom, completely closed with a roof, very safe day and night. I have a 2 small dogs, ages 8 and 11 years old and 1 cat also senior (14) yrs old who’s dog friendly . Week days I am home most of the time except if I have to run errands I usually not out for long period time. It I have fenced yard not a busy house when comes to visitors, my husband works long hours, he’s also crazy about animais just like me, quite and friendly environment for fur creatures
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child. I owned two Miniature Pinschers growing up and I adopted one Australian Shepherd mix that has special needs as an adult. I trained all of my dogs from the time they were puppies until they passed away as seniors. I also volunteered at the Humane Society of Westchester. I've always enjoyed being around animals since I was young and animals tend to feel the same way about me. Animals who are usually timid around strangers are comfortable around me right away and they seem to trust me right away. I feel like connecting with animals (dogs specifically) is a gift that I have. Being a sitter is a great way for me to use that gift in everyday life. I'm able to adapt to the normal routine of the pets that I'm sitting in order to make the process as smooth as possible. I don't have a lot of room in my studio apartment so I'm only able to watch either 1-2 small dogs or one medium sized dog. Large dogs are too big for my apartment. If I'm at a client's home, I'll change my schedule to meet the needs of the pet. I believe all animals are unique and all have different needs in order to thrive in the environment that they're in. I'm willing to meet those needs by building my schedule around the animals that I'm sitting.

“Melissa is extremely good with all animals and I would highly recommend her! Years ago when one of my german shepherds had a behavior issue we asked Melissa to work with us and the trainer to help correct the problem. Melissa understood what the trainer was doing and helped us to learn how to work with our dog. She has also fed, walked, and administered meds to our dogs while we were on vacation. Melissa is very reliable, knowledgeable about animals and extremely good with them. I trust her with all my animals care!”
About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life. I’m a biology major pursuing animal science and conservation. I love everything about them and I will be volunteering at the animal shelter this summer! I have experience taking care of old dogs, and hyper ones, from helping out my family and friends over the years. I work on campus, so with my semester ending, I am completely free this summer to focus on caring for these pets! Weekends can be busy but I will account for that in my availability. This isn’t just an opportunity to make money, it’s a way to help and give back to my community. I will care for pets in the clients home by offering play to have fun and be ready to sleep at bedtime! I will also care for them by respecting their space and boundaries when needed. If they are in need of a friend, I am there.
“Sara is amazing at what she does! She is an absolute joy with my pup, does everything she can think of to engage with them, while keeping them safe and happy. Your fur-ball couldn’t be in better hands!”
“Walfredo has been tremendous! He is reliable, responsive and our dog loves him. Walfredo keeps us informed of everything and is communicative ahead of time if there are any changes. I highly recommend Walfredo to anyone looking for dog walking and pet sitting services.”
“Jess was lovely with my dog. I have a German Shepherd and I’m always a bit worried with strangers. Jess came to my house to meet my dog beforehand to make sure they were a good fit which made me feel so much more at ease. Jess even sent me pictures of their walks! She was very accommodating with my instructions and I’m so grateful for her service.”
About: I've been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, I cared for many cats and dogs. I don’t have any animals at the moment. However, I did care for my cat, Susan, and Siberian Husky, Luke, for 15+ years before they both crossed the rainbow bridge in 2019. I know the tender, loving care that’s required to take in an animal and I’m sensitive to the fact that these kittens & pups are your babies! Each dog/cat/pet has a different personality and set of needs based on their breed or lifestyle and I’m prepared to take on any challenge. I’ve had prior experience home/dog/cat sitting and my schedule is pretty flexible. My phone is on hand at all times and I’m more than willing to send you pics throughout our time together! Currently, I have a flexible schedule and am looking to care for cats and pups to fill my days with more furry friends. 🐱 🐶 When I had pets at home, I would care for them by taking them on walks and playing their favorite games. I installed an electric fence for my dog so he could run around and enjoy the outdoors when I couldn’t walk him.
About: I am looking to add light to my life in spite of current events by helping others in my community and bonding with your fur babies! I'm free in the eavnings most days and fully available Mondays and Tuesdays. Schedules may be accommodated if reached out to 2 weeks in advance. I live with my mom and uncle who love dogs and we all guarantee to provide the highest quality of care. I have two cats who enjoy the outside in our yard and have come with us on fun adventures like camping trips. So they are very open to change.

About: I’ve grown up with large-breed dogs, especially Labs, and have cared for two or more cats at a time. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for over five years to walk, feed, and bathe their pets—including large dogs and bigger cat breeds. I’m comfortable handling active dogs, giving them plenty of exercise, and providing calm, loving care for all animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own. My schedule is part-time and flexible, and I’m happy to work with most schedules. This allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I create a safe, loving environment in my own home and will be sure to do the same in yours. I follow your pet’s routines, ensure they’re comfortable, and keep them supervised during walks or playtime. Whether it’s making sure they get enough exercise, providing calm companionship, or keeping their space clean and cozy, I always put their well-being first.
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my life - from little Boston Terriers to German Shepards and Beagles. I am open to caring for any type of dog. I am available to walk your dog anytime from 11 a.m - 7 p,m. Monday through Friday. I am flexible in terms of my hours. I will take your dog for a nice walk! He will be treated like he is one of my own pets. I have a high degree of trust and will take care with your animal.

About: I have cared for rabbits, cats, and dogs over the course of my life. I grew up with a rescued kitten who lived a healthy, active life for 15 years before he developed feline diabetes. For two years, we gave him daily injections to maintain his health as best we could. When I began life outside of my childhood home, I adopted a lion head rabbit that lived long enough to become my children’s first pet. While I was living in Queens, New York, I spent a year dog walking and pet sitting around Astoria and Long Island City. My responsibilities included individual and group dog walks, in-home care for elderly and special needs dogs and cats, cat care, litter box/wee wee pad changing, and feeding. I am currently a stay at home mom and freelance writer, so my schedule is very flexible between the hours of 8am and 3pm while my children are at school. As a cat mom, I understand how important safety is when it comes to animal care. From the moment I walk into the house, keeping your pet safe is my priority. During my time with your pet, I will do my due diligence to make sure your pet is safe and happy from harnessing and leashing, through the walk, and finally my departure. I know the importance of staying alert on walks, constantly taking in the environment for any potential dangers from other animals, people, and vehicles.
“Richie stayed with our Yorkie Nicky and Chihuahua Pea while we were away. He is very professional, followed the dogs schedule to a T, kept us updated and our dogs were calm and comfortable when we returned. We will definitely be booking him again!”
About: If you’re looking for someone to just drop a bowl of kibble and scroll on their phone, I’m probably not your person. But if you want someone who will treat your pet like a misunderstood genius or a retired diplomat, we’re going to get along great! I work for the MTA as a train operator in the city, but on my days off I love taking my corgi Zuko on long walks and playing in our yard. I've had dogs and cats since I was young, and have a special affinity for all animals. If you want your fur baby treated like the king or queen they know they are while you're away, look no further! I am currently off Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays so I will have the full 24 hours of those days to walk, play, entertain, and care for your pets. I have a large unfenced yard on a very quiet street off the main road. I also have a extremely friendly and energetic corgi named Zuko who will assuredly be your pets new best friend. There will be tons of playing, running, fetch and more to ensure your pet has the best experience staying at their home away from home.
About: Growing up I have had animals all the time such as dogs, cats, hamsters, fishes, etc. I am good at taking care of them and knowing how to help! I will have plenty of time to walk and care for you animal! I always have time to walk or care for you animal whenever you will need it. I live in an apartment building near 2 ponds and a park so there would be plenty of time for walks. There is a fenced in area specifically for dogs to run around and play as well.
About: I currently own two dogs a mini Australian Shepard and a cocker spaniel. But, my family is a huge dog loving family and I have also owned labs, retrievers, and collies. I have a fenced backyard with a doggy door that holds about an acre of land and I live on a very quiet road with hiking trails across from my house that I bring my dogs into all the time! I’m work 3 times a week at Ridgewood Country Club in Danbury. I can leave during my breaks to tend to your pets. If they are staying at my home I have a doggy door and fenced in backyard. And then the remainder of the week I am free! I have a doggy door inside my home with a fenced in backyard for the 3 days I can’t be at home all day long. All other days I would love to take the dogs hiking and make sure they have a great time! I do own two dogs that are very friendly. But they can also be seperated into my basement if other dog is not friends with them. I also have a lot of experience with cat sitting my neighbors cats.

“This is my second time having my fur baby with Sue. It was a much longer visit this time (a week) amd Sue remained her kind communicative self. Would recommend in a heartbeat. She goes above and beyond. Thank you! 💕”
“Erika was amazing. She kept me posted all the time with pictures and she helped my boy with his anxiety of staying away from us. The peace of mind of finding someone we can trust our dog with its really the best.”
“Nicole and her family took wonderful care of our girls, Bailey and Ruby. Highly recommend her. She provided dailey pictures which showed the care our girls received. Will use her services whenever we go out of town.”
“Rachael was so good with Swift! He can be a little much, but she took him for lots of hikes and play time and he came home tired, happy, and better behaved. You can tell she loves what she does.”
“Saori took fantastic care of our large doodle Toby for two weeks while we were traveling. We received daily updates with pictures and videos, which was really great. Toby had so much fun and will be going back next time we travel. I highly recommend Saori to anyone who needs a skilled and kind person to care of their pet.”
“Rich was incredibly kind and took great care of our pups. Booking was easy & everything went very well. Our dogs loved his property (lots of outdoor space!) and it was nice for them to get used to being around other dogs. Rich sent us photos of our dogs throughout their stay with him. They looked happy & content. Great experience 😊”
“Athena, watched my two pups for 5 days! She was great, she came to pick up and drop the pups. She sent me daily photos and updates of them! Very friendly and my pups spent a great time with her! I highly recommend!”
“Ryan EXCEEDED my expectations! He has an intuitive way with dogs. He is very knowledgable about dogs & dog behavior. Ryan is the real deal-- a true animal lover & kind, decent human being. He communicated well with pics and updates during my dog's visit. During our initial meeting I felt an instant rapport he had with my dog that put me at ease. His home is VERY dog-centric! The visiting dogs are not confined and are free to mingle and find their own place to relax. There are ample dog beds, couches, human beds and floor space for lounging and sleeping. I especially appreciate that Ryan limits the number of dogs he boards at one time to a very small group, & makes sure they vibe well together beforehand. The living space Ryan and his boarders occupy is all on one level, which is great for my dog with arthritis. There is a wooded trail for walks adjoining the yard, and a guest bedroom if a dog needs some quiet alone time. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and I plan to use him again!”
“Fabulous experience, my 2 Bernese Mountain Dogs LOVED< LOVED< LOVED Kyle! They didn't really want to leave, either! Kyle is the quintessential laid back dog lover....will definitely hire him again!”
“Katharine is wonderful! We love the constant updates and pictures throughout the day letting us know how happy our dog is with her! She’s always so accommodating and Alfie cannot wait to stay again.”
“Natasha and Hamir took such great care of Minnie! They are so sweet and clearly very knowledgeable about dogs and are “dog people.” My dog was instantly comfortable when she met them, which put me at ease. They really treated Minnie like their own and kept me updated while I was away. We will definitely be back. Thanks for everything!”
“Kathryn is probably the best Rover sitter we’ve had (and we’ve used some lovely sitters). Our dogs are anxious when they’re left, and Kathryn really helped them feel at ease - her fenced yard was perfect and they just seemed to trust her. I’d highly recommend booking your pet’s stay with her!”
“Very nice experience with Anner. We did a pre-boarding meet and greet with my dog which went well and then a one night boarding. The house has a fenced yard which is safe when letting dogs out. House is very clean and dogs feel at home. There was even another dog there at the same time so they kept each other company.”
“I cannot express how pleased I was with the level of care and love my boys received from Candice. She treated them like her own. Her home was spotless. They were loved and cared for just like I care for them. She updated me numerous times a day because she knew that is what I needed to feel comfortable, she sent pictures and videos. If there were 10 stars that is the rating I would give her. Highly recommend!!!!”
“Claudia made Ellie ( our somewhat spoiled yellow lab) feel right at home. She is delightful and caring and I know Ellie will be delighted when she gets the chance to have another sleepover at Claudia’s!”
“Jessica was great at watching Gwen! She was able to accommodate our last-minute request after another sitter cancelled. She was very communicative about Gwen’s stay and sent plenty of photos and updates. She took great care of our little pup!”
“This was Reba’s first time staying a few days with Farva. Farva is very responsive with communication and Reba had a great time. Will definitely use Farva again.”
