“Margarita and Cris took good care of our dog. Margarita is very polite, kind and responsive. While we were away she texted us pictures and updates of our pup, which was a really thoughtful touch. We definitely recommend her !”
“Kristin was amazing and accommodating. Tommy was welcomed and looked to be very comfortable in her care. I appreciated the daily updates with photos and/or videos, and even was able to see how Tommy would fair with another cat.”
“Denis was absolutely wonderful with my energetic orange boy cat! He was great at communicating every day and noting anything in terms of behavior which helped make me feel calm during the early days. Not entirely sure who’s vacation was better 🐈🤍 Would highly recommend him and will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Royce's 2nd time staying with Juliana and her family and we couldn't have been happier. They were able to get through our old man's tough exterior and his level of comfort while staying with them in their home showed in the pictures she sent. Juliana and her family not only has our trust, but most importantly Royce's!”
“Always a pleasure with Michael, very good communicator, great attention to detail, no issues with him giving medicine or walking our dog who is leash reactive and can be tough to walk. Thanks again, Michael!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Emily made it such a great experience. She took great care of Lolah from April 1–11 and sent photo updates that made me feel at ease while I was away. Lolah was clearly in good hands. I would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“Angelique was a lifesaver. She took care of our sweet boy while we were away for the weekend. She was so attentive and communicative when he had unexpected stomach issues and made sure our boy was well taken care of. Truly appreciate her and could not recommend more highly!”
“Iwona took wonderful care of our dog while we were away and gave us real peace of mind. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and sent photos, which we always appreciate. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“My wife and I were always extremely skeptical about who we’d leave our dogs with. Until we met Megan, Brian, and their Beagle Duke! From the moment we met them they were very kind, friendly, & loving. Any question I had for them they were very quick to respond as well as updating us with many photos of the boys daily. We had absolutely no worries about Montego & Mamba. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies the way you do then look no further! They are THE BEST.”
“Ronald and Laura were great! They took amazing care of Bubbles. Bubbles tends to get nervous, but I could tell from the daily updates that she was in good hands. Super communicative and responsive. Would definitely book again!”
“Adriana was such a savior for us this past week, she took great care of our little friends. Sent us pics everyday ensuring that they were being treated great and happy and around loving energy. We will definitely be going back to Adriana in the future.”
“Took great care of StarFox! I know my dog enjoyed his stay and I appreciate all the time spent with him playing and walking. My dog had a prior injury and he got the best care and attention possible, even a visit to the vet, medical instructions, everything was taken care of. My dog was taken care of like he was family! My dog is a clever fox, so he can be a handful sometimes. Fantastic job and would definitely book again when I’m out of town. Great photos too and updates!”
“If we can give more stars we would. Gaby and her husband were so accommodating on the day of check-in and out. Our flight back home was delayed due to the weather causing for us to arrive late night to pick up our baby, Loki but they encouraged us to take our time as they were willing to wait. Our Loki came back to us so happy, clean and smelling good. We were so delighted to receive cute pics and videos of our little guy while away on vacation, reassuring us that he was in great hands. I highly recommend Gaby for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Fifi truly enjoys her visits with Jordan and his fur babies—it’s her happy place away from home. Jordan maintains open communication, sharing updates when she’s at her best, when she accomplishes new tasks (like solving a treat puzzle), and even when she wakes up and gets everyone else up too. :)”
“David and Marcelle (his partner) were fantastic! They understood Dante's quirks and just let him be a dog, which definitely put him at ease. David and Marcelle were able to get Dante's leash reactivity under control, of course, with the help of Nuno their rescue pup. I believe it was all of the cuddles Dante received that definitely made him a more confident dog when he came home. David was highly communicative, with a bit of wit to add, sending me several updates a day with photos. I highly recommend David, and look forward to boarding Dante with him again!”
“Bailey has been truly a blessing. Her dog, Duke, is an absolute gentleman and has become my dog’s bestie! Bailey is highly communicative, thoughtful, and above all else, treats my dog like her own. I am so grateful to have found Bailey! I will absolutely be rebooking!”
“Ning was great, she handle Theo with care and precision. She kept me informed thru out the day with his status and is very responsive and communicative. Couldn’t be more happier with her as Theos care taker. Thank you once again for the great experience.”
“This was Brownie’s first long term stay away from us as we went on vacation. Millie kept us in the loop every day and sent us pics letting us know how he was doing. He did great and I was so relieved knowing he was in good hands. Thanks Millie!!”
“Adam was great! It was the first time we were away from our puppy over night and we were very nervous. He took great care of her and sent us videos everyday! Will definitely use him again:)”
“Amazing sitter! Received bunch of photos and videos every single day. Respond message quickly. Followed special direction exactly. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I AND MY FUR BABY ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE THEM.”

“Absolute rockstar of a cat sitter. Our Pinecone was in good hands. Laura went above and beyond to take care of her. Always on time, always promptly communicating and super patient.”
“Our first time having Veronica and Melanie watch our two cats. They were very communicative and played with our girls while we were gone. We will be booking with them again! Thank you for loving our girls!”
“Betty did an excellent job taking care of my cat. She’s very responsive, professional, and easy to work with, and her notes and pictures were great. I’m already booking her for another round of cat sitting.”
“I had the pleasure of seeing Tedy for 9 days when she came to give my cat her meds each morning. She always brought sweet, positive energy, was so helpful with whatever I needed help with (cat related or not) and both my cats love her. Tedy brightened my mornings for me and I will miss our little visits!”
“I contacted Qilin after our previous sitter fell through. She responded quickly and maintained great communication throughout. One of our cats wasn’t feeling well the day before we were scheduled to leave and we were still able to have enjoy our vacation knowing she was in great hands. We got detailed updates every visit, Qilin was able to give our cat her meds and she was able to recover while we were away. She even offered to cut our cats nails. A true gem, def would hire again!”
“Catalina is amazing! She went above and beyond for my kitties. The thing that impressed me the most about her is that you can immediately tell that she truly has a heart for animals. I had never left my cats before and just knowing that she was checking on them and loving on them made me feel so much better. Plus she sent me lots of pictures which made my day!”
“I've booked Kristin a few times, and she has always been very kind and helpful, especially with the special accommodations that my cat needs. I feel she provided a good environment for boarding my cat. In particular, I appreciate her being very helpful and communicative after my cat had a medical episode and needed to be taken to the ER. Her care made a difficult moment easier to go through.”
“Adriana took very good care of our cat Maxima! She was reliable, friendly, and easy to communicate with, and Maxima was happy and relaxed when we returned home.”
“Xiaoying is literally the best person for the job. She went up and above with caring for our 3 kitties. It was our first trip away and for a 2 week period so we were very nervous about leaving them alone. We have a 17yr old male senior cat with specific dietary needs and two 4 yr old male and female cats who need lots of play and attention. We booked her for the morning and evening and she played with them, fed them and cleaned their litter boxes. Our lil Luna is very wary of strangers but she loved Xiaoying and even gave her head bumps. We received detailed reports and so many pictures which we loved! The best sitter!!!”
“This was my first time booking with Rover and Marla made the process easy and fast! We just adopted a little kitten and Marla made my worries go away! She was super kind with her and very attentive! Will definitely book again!!”
“Charlie very gracefully accommodated our last minute request to drop in on our two cats, which we really appreciate. He did an outstanding job ensuring they had food, water, and litter, and was very responsive. We loved receiving updates on the cats every day. Would book again if I have the opportunity.”
“We use Kira all the time for our cat. She's reliable, quick to respond, and sends us lots of photos while we're away. We're starting to fear he might like her more than us now!”
“Deanna was really great with my cat! She made sure he got his medicine and everything he needed. She took good care of him and kept me updated with notes and pictures, which I appreciated. Would definitely recommend!”
“Thoselin was great. She made all the visits on time, took pictures of my kitties, and cleaned their litter box everyday. My kitties are normally shy with strangers, but my babies seemed to love her.”

“Simply delighted!! Punctual and quickly made friends with my 6 year old rescue Maltese, Chanel. Received multiple updates & photos during the day. Booking her for more dates before her calendar fills up.”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Iwona and I love all pets, especially dogs. I live right across the street from Forest Park, a huge park in Queens. Therefore, your dogs will be getting plenty of quality walks with me. Inside my house, there is lots of of space for your dog to roam free. I am home most of the week therefore I am flexible with appointments and your dog will not be lonely. I look forward to discussing an arrangement that works for you and your dog! I’m currently home most of the days and can provide potty breaks every 2 hours. I have plenty of time to play and take care of the pets. I have an unfenced yard, but I prefer short/long walks in the park (depending on the dogs needs). Dogs are fed according to their owners instructions, usually twice a day.
“Our pup Septon enjoyed his doggie daycare so much with Dani, he didn’t want to leave! I can tell he and his mom are dog people. I really appreciate how responsive he is, as well as all the photos and videos he sent. It gave me peace of mind knowing how much love Septon was getting while I was away.”
“Ana was so sweet and kind to my puppy. She sent me multiple updates and pictures throughout the day and treated him with so much love. She followed my schedule with him to the T and I could tell he enjoyed being with her and her with him. My puppy came home tired and happy and we will be repeat customers!”
“Cristian took great care of both my dogs! They came home tired and happy. She was great about sending pics during the day. I've already booked her again!”
“I found Jennifer while searching for a dogsitter for Thanksgiving. She was terrific. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand to get acquainted. She is very nice and clearly comfortable with dogs. She was flexible with timing (drop off and pick up) and sent me messages and pictures for updates. Very grateful she was available for the holiday. I recommend Jennifer to anyone with a dog who is looking for a sitter.”
“This was my first time using Rover & Arianna made it a great experience. My pup can be very anxious and may take a bit to get used to someone new but Arianna was super patient and kind with her. She sent updates and pictures throughout the stay and reassured me everything was going well. My pup quickly warmed up to her and had an enjoyable experience.”
“So grateful for them. I was extremely nervous of leaving Teddy because since I’ve rescued him, I hadn’t been able to leave him with a sitter because he’s a nervous dog and it takes him a while to open up. Luckily they were so amazing and understanding with him. Teddy even let them scratch his belly. Can’t wait for them to watch Teddy again so they can continue building that trust.”
“Ashley, thank you so much for being so amazing. This was a last minute booking and she responded right away! Thank you for being so attentive with our fur baby and understanding our situation! We appreciate you and will definitely keep booking with you for any future needs 💕.”
“We couldn’t be anymore happier with Sviatlana! She was beyond great, and our dog loved the time he spent with her. She was very communicative and attentive which made us feel at ease for leaving him for an extended period.”
About: Lady and I bring years of hands-on experience with animals, not only in care and companionship but also in providing basic training and understanding their unique needs. Whether it’s working with playful puppies, helping senior dogs feel comfortable, or ensuring every pet feels safe and loved, we go beyond just “sitting.” Our deep passion for animals and understanding of their behavior allows us to build trust quickly, creating a stress-free environment for pets and their owners. We’re also familiar with managing different temperaments, routines, and even health-related needs, ensuring every pet receives tailored care. Your pets are not just cared for—they’re treated like family. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around my clients’ needs, ensuring I’m available for feedings, playtime, walks, or administering medications at the right times. I’m flexible and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits, depending on what works best for you and your pet. In your home, I prioritize your pet’s safety by following all instructions you provide, maintaining a clean and secure environment, and respecting their established routines. I double-check that all doors and windows are secure and keep an eye on their behavior to ensure they’re comfortable. If pets stay in my home, they’ll enjoy a pet-friendly, cozy space free of hazards, with plenty of supervision, love, and care. Trust and communication with you are key—I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

She’s friendly and professional, She took amazing care of Ziggy,she kept me updated throughout the day and it was a really good match. She took him on walks and played with him he was very happy and tired when I picked him up I will be booking with her again.”
About: Great pet care shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg. I aim to provide loving care at affordable costs. Experience: I've taken care of dogs since I could walk as I grew up with a family dog- a pomeranian, to be exact so I was brought up with experiences of properly grooming fur, brushing teeth, trimming paw pads, you name it, and I have done it! — My schedule: I work in tech and am working from home, so I have the flexibility to work with you and your pet with his or her needs. — Info needed for day care requests: 1. What areas are okay for myself and the pet to roam. 2. How frequently do you want updates and in what form (photos, text, videos etc) 3. If your pet is anxious/aggressive and what soothes them. 4. Location of cleaning supplies.
“Peggy and Anthony were so amazing. I booked it very last minute for a next day daycare and they were able to take my dog, Noble in. They gave me updates throughout the day and you could just tell they took very good care of Noble. Noble enjoys being with them and had a lot of fun at the dog run. Will definitely be booking them again for a future need.”

“Jasmine is EXCEPTIONAL! On time, responsive, sweet and so good with Sophie. Jasmine makes sure Sophie gets to make the most out of her time outside with treats and lots of positive reinforcement.”
“I feel very fortunate to have Tedy to care, walk and entertain my Jack Russell when I am working. She has been taking care of my dog consistently for close to 4 months and it feels like family. She keeps me informed of everything so I don’t have any worries. Tedy will be excellent at any and everything she does and I have complete confidence anyone would say the same.”
“Laura is awesome with my dog Samson. He looks forward to seeing her and loves his walks! Laura is extremely timely and dependable which I need because I have a little one. I recommend her services to anyone!”
“We cannot say enough great things about Jake as a walker and a kind and thoughtful individual. Jake is a very responsible: always on time, follows directions and is very attentive to our growing puppy. Jake is proactive in communicating any potential issue that may need our attention and makes sound judgment calls in shortening walks should our puppy overheat due to hot and humid weather conditions. He is also very mindful to not let our puppy interact with strangers on their walks to prevent any potential issues. Jake is extremely respectful and truly cares about walking dogs.. We have used Jake for over 1 month 3x times a week and he has never let us down. He is highly recommended!!”
About: The first dog that I fell in love with was Charlie, my best friend’s beagle. I cared for him for weeks at a time, and that’s when I realized how much I enjoy looking after dogs. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for several pets, both on and off the books, and each experience has made me love it even more. Although I’ve never owned a dog myself, I have a deep respect and appreciation for them. I understand the dedication, planning, and responsibility that goes into making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. As much as we wish we could bring our pets everywhere, sometimes the best choice is leaving them in a place where they feel at home. That’s the experience I aim to provide: reliable and thoughtful care that supports your pet’s comfort without requiring you to sacrifice your plans. I am currently unemployed and I live with my parents (who also love dogs), so there’s almost always someone home. I was working at Central Park for these last few months, but now that the season is over I can dedicate myself to working my dream job… along with finding a career that goes with my degree. I’ve cared for dogs both in my own home and in clients’ homes. Our quiet neighborhood has plenty of small parks and green spaces for quick walks or a good 30–35 minute wander. I also have a ground-floor apartment with a fenced backyard where dogs can roam, zoom, or take care of their business when a full walk isn’t ideal. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow whatever routine works best for their dog. I can stay overnight or visit in the mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and light grooming. My priority is keeping each dog comfortable by sticking to the routine they know.
“Yuni is a great dog walker! She is very nice, calm, and responsible - she shows up on time and sends photo and video updates during each walk. Will definitely contribute working with her.”
“Charlie was great with my foster puppy, Joey! He is very communicative and kept me informed about his arrival times for the two days I requested walks. My puppy got adopted, but I will be going back to Charlie when I get my next pup!”
About: I've cared for a variety of pets over the years—including my own cat for 10 years, a guinea pig for 2, a parakeet, and a hamster. I've also looked after my parents' fish and my brother's Husky, and have completed house sits for both cats and dogs during my travels. I have a flexible schedule and live nearby, so I can easily accommodate your pet’s daily routine and provide reliable, attentive, loving care every day. Hi, I’m Betty, a native New Yorker and lifelong animal lover. I’m clean, friendly, and dependable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. As a homeowner and former pet owner who had relied on house sitters for my own pets, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your home and animals. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, and I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’ll treat your pets with patience and kindness and respect your home as if it were my own.
“Kira took my dog for walks and she was excellent. She was always on time, responsive, and it was evident that she is a gentle person and very attentive with my dog as I accompanied her on the walks.”
“Jennifer was GREAT! She was able to handle our two large, young and energetic dogs with ease and they aren’t always easy! Her communication was clear and very detailed! I loved her notes and anecdotes from their walk. Her pictures were also great. I could tell the pups were having a blast. We’d definitely ask her to walk again in the need came up. Thank you, Jennifer!!”
“Qilin was great! She was very accommodating of my senior dog and spent plenty of time with him, and was great about sending updates about how he did. I was very happy with Qilin and would absolutely book her to walk Winston again!”
“Marla was communicative and punctual. It’s hard to find someone to walk at night (totally understand) but Marla was up for the task and Snickers loved his walk with her! Would highly recommend.”

About: Why Rover? My fur baby crossed the rainbow bridge at 17 years old, over a year ago. I miss my dog, but im happy that this platform gives me the opportunity to be around dogs again. About me: I work in fashion and love dogs. I wish could be surrounded by them everyday. I adore dogs of all ages, but senior dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’m experienced in caring for seniors, including administering daily medications. I understand it’s stressful leaving your fur baby with strangers, but I’m extremely communicative and responsible. I’d treat your baby like my own. Im open to connecting prior to confirming the booking, if it helps calm any nerves. I am home most days of the week. I'm in the office 2 days per week. Fortunately my office has a relaxed pet policy, and I'm able to bring in dogs to work. I live in an apartment and believe dogs should never be crated. They’re free to roam my home and are welcome to sleep on my bed at night.
About: I have rescued and cared for animals my whole life. In addition, I’ve done pet sitting, walking and administering medication when needed. Reliable and loving. I am currently working part time but have enough flexibility to help out with your pets…even if you just want someone to keep them company, or check in on them. I will spend quality time with your pet..undivided attention, playtime, affection, walking, feeding and fulfilling needs required by pet/pet owner. Pet will not be confined and becomes a “part of the family”.
About: Hi, I’m Irina — a full-time dog sitter in Forest Hills who works from home, so your dog is never left alone. I provide calm, attentive care with frequent walks, updates, and lots of love while you're away. I enjoy taking dogs on neighborhood walks, and my building also has a private dog park. For longer outings, I often drive to parks in Queens so dog and I can enjoy fresh air and exercise. I follow each dog’s routine closely so they feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I specialize in small and medium dogs and am always happy to arrange a quick meet-and-greet so everyone feels comfortable before the stay. I work from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-ins on both weekdays and weekends. Dogs staying with me receive regular walks, playtime, lots of attention, and the occasional sing-along if they’re in the mood;, and I’m flexible with most schedules to accommodate your pet’s routine. I live in a clean, quiet, pet-friendly apartment in Queens that provides a calm environment for visiting dogs. My building also has a private dog park, and I regularly take dogs on neighborhood walks or to larger parks nearby for exercise and fresh air. I follow each dog’s routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I can also care for pets in your home and always treat every pet and home with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own.
About: I have taken care of my own dog since I was 6 and have experience cat sitting for family friends. I have also been around a wide variety of pets- from a very talkative parrot to an energetic ferret! I genuinely love getting to know new animals and making sure that they feel completely relaxed and comfortable with me. My top priority is to keep your pet(s) happy and well-loved until you return. I recently graduated from Penn State and am currently working part-time as a Behavior Therapist for children with autism. After returning home from college, I said goodbye to my childhood dog of 16 years. It would mean so much to me to share the love I had for my own pup with your pet(s). Whether it’s playtime, walks, feedings, or just relaxing company, I would love to make sure your pet(s) feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I live in an apartment building, which is where my dog grew up. He started out sleeping in a crate while he was being potty-trained. As he got older, he had to rely on me and my family to carry him up and down the stairs, push him in his stroller when he could no longer walk on his own, and help him take his medications. I understand that caring for animals with different qualities of life requires adjusting to their needs, and I plan to do just that for you and your pets.
“This was our first time using Rover, but Melanie ensured everything went smoothly. Prior to the walk Melanie scheduled a meet and greet to confirm that she was a good fit for Willow and to get to know her needs. I am pleased with her service and will be scheduling again in the future.”

“Iwona took wonderful care of our dog while we were away and gave us real peace of mind. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and sent photos, which we always appreciate. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“From a slightly crazy dog mom, leaving Pepper with a stranger was so hard for me- I was super nervous and felt like I wouldn’t enjoy my trip because I’d be worrying about her. Within the first day away, my worries were totally gone- Steven was so kind and communicative, he sent so many pictures, reassured me, and was just all around wonderful. I was wishing for a sign that she’d be okay when I left her, so if you’re reading this review and feeling the same way take this as your sign!! Thank you so much Steven!!”
“Ashley was great! She took excellent care of my very large dog (120 lbs) and was incredibly patient and attentive. When my dog experienced anxiety and wasn't eating, Ashley helped comfort and reassure her. She also kept me updated throughout the stay by sending regular messages, pictures, and videos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away.”
“Kiersten and Casey are the best! Super accommodating. Just the right amount of pics and updates :) I knew my girl was in good hands the whole time. 10/10!”
“Jennifer and her family made Frost feel at home while we were away for the holidays. She provided pictures, updates, and feedback. I will definitely keep Jennifer and her family in mind for future bookings!”
“Renzo took great care of my little Xina while I was away. This was the first time I left my dog for an extended period of time and Renzo made me feel at ease from the moment I dropped her off in his care. He sent tons of photos and videos daily and I knew my pup was sad to leave his care. I think she loved him more than me! I will definitely be using Renzo's services again.”
“Dan was absolutely amazing with our dog Karley. From the moment we left, she kept us consistently updated with messages, photos, and check-ins, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Dan made it effortless. Her communication was top-notch, and it was clear Karley was not only well cared for, but genuinely comfortable and happy. We had zero worries the entire time, and that says everything. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly caring. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“An AMAZING sitter. He is quickly becoming family. My dog LEAPS out of the car as soon as he sees him. I feel great going away knowing that my baby is being well taken care of. He is responsive and communicates often.”
“Sam was absolutely wonderful with Kulfi! She paid attention to all of our instructions and made sure to give her tons of affection and play time. Sam sent lots of cute pics too so I knew Kulfi was doing well! Sam was also very accommodating and actually came to pick Kulfi up since she lives close by. I can’t wait to book with Sam again soon!”
“Khang was wonderful in accepting a last minute request to watch Mooi, my Yorkie for the weekend! He kept me very up-to-date with photos and videos of her during her stay. She came home very happy and excited, so safe to say I will be using Khang again.”
“Lal was amazing! She watched our puppy and was very communicative and committed to taking great care of him! It was our first time leaving him and we were so pleased with her and are glad to have a trusted sitter!”
“Renald did a great job watching our pup over the weekend! We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a reliable Rover who will walk and spend time with your dog while you’re out of town.”
“I needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!”
“Stella went absolutely above and beyond taking care of Bao for a long weekend. This was our first time leaving Bao with a boarder since getting her and I can't imagine anyone providing better care than Stella. We're so spoiled now! Stella sent very frequent and detailed updates each day and took Bao and her dog, Koukla on countless adventures during her stay. Stella is mindful about the number of dogs she has in her care at one time so she can give her undivided attention to your pup during their stay. It really felt like Bao was an honorary member of her family and we can't wait to send Bao back for another stay 🥰”
“Alexandra was amazing. She was super responsive, easy to arrange pick up and drop off, and sent us lots of photos! When I pick my dog up from a sitter, it’s pretty easy to tell whether she had a good experience or not, and after picking her up she was relaxed and happy, it was clear that she was really well cared for. We will absolutely use Alexandra again!”
“Eleanor took amazing care of my Tex! She asked all the right questions, gave him the best care, and was extremely thorough and responsive. Tex was thrilled to stay with her and we highly recommend her! Thank you so much, Eleanor!”
“Had a fantastic experience leaving our dog with Anastasia for a week. She communicated with us through their time together and also took some of the cutest photos of our dog! There wasn’t a thing we’d ask Anastasia to change and we’ll certainly use her again for our next trip!”
“Joel was fantastic with our family's dog, Harry. He was super communicative and caring, and made sure Harry was extremely well taken care of while we were away. Will definitely book with him again.”
“Michael is simply the greatest dog boarder in the history of the world. When you book through Michael, though, you don't just get him, you also get his amazing wife, too. Michael took care of my dog Lucas during a medical emergency. I was at work at the hospital after midnight. We were terribly low-staffed. There was no one to take over my patients. If I'd left work, I probably would have lost my license and been fired for abandonment. Michael took my dog to an emergency 24 hour vet and didn't get back home until like 2 in the morning. The care he took of my dog went above and beyond. He is awesome, he is amazing, he is smart and capable and caring, I cannot say enough good things about him. You can trust your fur babies with Michael. With him and his wife, they are in amazing hands. It's always scary entrusting your canine children to a stranger, but with Michael you realize that he's not a stranger, he's the family member you didn't know you had. Thank you Michael!!!”
