“Jinay was literally the best sitter ever!! I’m always weary about leaving my pittie with separation anxiety with someone new but she just went above and beyond! She knew exactly how to deal with it and went above and beyond with her care. She even did a training day for her and another dog!! She sent me amazing adorable pics and vid’s all throughout her stay and I could see my dog was just having the best time! So glad I chose her :)”
About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs since I was a kid. I have also worked at a veterinary practice for many years as an assistant. I am currently available weekdays and weekends, early morning to late night. I can help if you need one visit or recurring visits so I am easily able to accommodate your times and needs. I have plenty of space in my home for your pet to be safe and cared for. I also have a large fenced in yard if your pet needs to be taken care of at my home. I make their safety a priority when coming to your home to take care of or walking your pet
“This was our first time leaving Finn with anyone outside of family or our usual sitter. Sandy was so responsive, provided a comfortable and safe environment for the dogs, and you could tell she really cares for the dogs! I would highly recommend her for anyone considering boarding with Rover.”
“John has been very responsive throughout the time we were away from our fur baby. He sent photo updates and we couldn’t be more happy with our decision to leave our Reina with him. He is very friendly and we can tell he loves all animals as his own. We will definitely be rebooking whenever we are out of town. Thank you again John !”
“Rebooked Veronique and her husband because my anxious dog feels so at ease with them. They accepted the booking last min and we were able to enjoy a much needed date weekend in the city without worrying about our dog . Will definitely book again.”
About: For 15 years, I have loved and cared for my animals. I was lucky enough to receive excellent training for my shepherd/husky and incorporate the methods during interactions with other animals as well as my new puppy. I completely understand needing reliable care when away. Patience, exercise and attention work wonders!! I'm currently working remote on Thursdays and am able to fit walks in throughout the day as well as during weekends. A varied schedule is fine!! Ensuring the animal's environment is the same when I leave as when I arrive is necessary to prevent injury or any accident. My yard is completely fenced in and equipped to play and run!
“If I could give Catherine 20 stars, I would! Leaving our dog was not easy. It was the first time we left him with a sitter. I’m a worrier by nature and for me to say I was totally comfortable says a lot! Catherine made us feel so at ease. She always made herself available for check-ins and took it upon herself to provide updates and pictures. She accommodated some special needs our dog had and really provided him with the comforts of home. If you’re looking for someone to watch your pet while you’re away, I highly recommend Catherine. We will definitely be asking her for pet sitting again.”
“I recently had the pleasure of boarding my furry friends at this wonderful dog boarding house, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment I dropped my dog off, I knew they were in great hands. Christine were incredibly friendly and nice! Throughout my dog's stay, I received regular updates and pictures, which was a great comfort to me. I could tell that my dog was having an absolute blast - playing with other dogs, and watching TV shows.When I picked up my dog, they were happy, healthy, and tired out from all the fun they had been having. Overall, I would highly recommend this dog boarding house to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and fun place to board their dog. I will definitely be using their services again in the future!”
“AleV was absolutely INCREDIBLE! This was our first time leaving Keegan and she made it as easy as possible. Regular pics, videos and update. She cared for him as if he was her own. We are so thankful to have found her. CANNOT recommend higher!”
“Jennifer was such a great sitter and certainly deserves the star sitter status! She was extremely accommodating with our doggy meet up to make sure our puppy would be a great fit (and also extremely patient with Maya’s high energy!). From drop off to pick-up, Jennifer was in contact with us the whole time providing us with the updates and pictures she knew we needed! It was so difficult to be away from our fur baby for as long as we were but we felt comfortable with where she was and would 100% book with Jennifer again in the future!”
“Laurie and her husband, Cliff, recently cared for our dog while we were away on vacation. It was the first time our girl would be in the care of someone other than family and we were nervous with how she would acclimate to the situation. Any worries we had were quickly erased and our minds set at ease with the daily updates we received. The accompanying daily photos let us know that our girl was in great hands. She came home a happy, well fed, clean girl and we definitely will be using Laurie and Cliff again in the future.”
“Sent both my pups here while we went away for 5 days. They were very well taken care of and loved i got videos to see they were doing good! Will definitely be booking with Alejandro again”
“Jamie was a great host. She sent us pictures several times during the day and was always responsive when we asked how our baby was. We would highly recommend her and plan on using her all the time.”
“Gabby was so wonderful to my babies! They stayed with her for the first time, but I felt like she knew them for a long time. They seemed really comfortable with her and they came back home super happy!!! Would definitely use her service again.”
“Gerald watched our dog in his home for 10 days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Our dog can get anxious when he's away from home, but he was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout his stay. Gerald took him on walks in the nearby park and provided excellent care. He was also a fantastic communicator, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“Samantha did an excellent job checking in on my cats while I was away! I never felt stressed because I knew my babies were in great hands. She was reliable, caring, and gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!”
“I could not be happier with how Marianna took care of my cat. Kunkcles was well taken care of while I was away. Marianna did everything I asked. I will definitely return to her in the future if she is available.”
“Lisa and Michael were fantastic and made us feel comfortable leaving our two cats while we went on vacation. We received updates after each visit and they kept everything tidy. Would absolutely book with them again.”
About: I have loved dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I wasn’t allowed to have a dog, but I spent a lot of time caring for my neighbor’s Bernese Mountain Dog, Koda. I would walk, play with, and care for him, which helped me realize how much I enjoy working with animals and building connections with them. As I got older, I began volunteering with Carol’s Senior Pet Sanctuary, where I walked shelter dogs and sometimes brought them home overnight. This gave me experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My love for animals has inspired me to pursue a career in dog grooming and training, with the goal of becoming a professional dog trainer. I’m patient, energetic, and happy to keep active dogs entertained while also being comfortable with shy or nervous dogs. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, companionship, or just some extra love and attention while you are away, I would be happy to help. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you are gone. I will treat every dog as if they were my own and give them the patience, attention, and care they deserve. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide care whenever you need it. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra attention, I’m always happy to help and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved! I take pet safety very seriously, both in your home and in mine. I make sure doors are securely closed and locked when needed, and I keep anything potentially harmful or unsafe out of a dog’s reach. I always keep a close eye on the dogs in my care, especially puppies who may be curious and get into things. I’ll also follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any areas of the home your dog is or isn’t allowed in. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where your pup can feel right at home.
“I highly recommend Morgan! She took amazing care of my cat, Mickey, and paid attention to every little detail. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and reliable hands.”
“Jamey visited my newly adopted senior cat three times a day for three days. She fed her, gave her medications, cleaned her litter box and kept her company. It’s so comforting to know that I can enjoy my little vacations while my cat is well cared for back at home.”
“Christiana was great. She took care of my cat Domino for a week and when I returned he was well fed and well scooped. She kept everything in order and the house and litter box was clean when I got back. I was given good feedback after every visit and she arrived exactly when she was supposed to. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets since I was little. Pets of my own, family and friends. I’ve always been dependable and so loving of animals. I’m here to give them the little bit of extra love throughout the day while the parents are away. I am available throughout most of the day! I have my own car, no problem there. I can do multiple potty breaks throughout the day if necessary! I provide pets with a happy environment. I do live in an apartments so I don’t usually care for pets in my home but I can if needed.
“Nikki did an awesome time with our pets and we've already booked her for our next trip! They were well cared for and it's easy to tell Nikki is an animal lover. She went above and beyond!”
“Amanda was phenomenal! She was communicative, kept me posted with thorough notes and pictures, followed instructions and most importantly, my cat loved her. Thank you!!!”

“Madison was incredibly easy to communicate with and I felt reassured that our beloved cat, Jackie, was well cared for. Madison was able to accommodate a last-minute cat sitting request just in time for the holidays. I am very appreciative and would recommend Madison for any pet sitting needs.”
“Amber was amazing! She was so communicative throughout Oliver’s stay and truly made him feel right at home. This was my first time boarding him, and she made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. Oliver was so happy and clearly in the best hands! I will absolutely be choosing Amber again the next time I need someone to watch him. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. From giving insulin shots and oral medications to providing gentle care for shy or senior cats, I understand how to earn a feline’s trust and make them feel safe. What sets me apart is my attention to detail—whether it's deep-cleaning litter boxes, brushing out matted fur, or keeping feeding areas spotless. I treat every cat like they’re my own, giving them love, playtime, and the calm consistency they need while you're away.
About: I follow instructions that are left for the pet, I interact with the pet alot and treat it as my own. I make sure it is given unconditional love and care that all animals deserve!! Part time in the afternoons or on the weekends with advanced notice. During the week after 5pm and on the weekends between 10am-9pm, unless it’s overnight then the hours are more flexible. I am in an enclosed apartment, that is spacious and has a patio for the pet to chill with fresh air. I also have a lot of areas to play around the complex that is friendly to four legged creatures, I live near numerous outdoor amenities including parks and beaches for the pet to explore. The entire neighborhood is very welcoming to pets and it could easily make a play date.
“Brandi took care of my three pups for the day recently. She was very thorough and conscientious. My oldest dog had just had surgery so there was extra concern there about trying to keep them from playing too rough. It also involves keeping them I. Separate sleeping areas so that the other two wouldn’t lick his sutures. She handled all of this extra work very well.”

“My dog Grady had a great first visit for day care. Laurie’s place is immaculate! Plus, she has safety as a priority, which is my first criteria for dog care. I will plan to use her for future doggy care needs!”
“My dog is so comfortable with Cynthia! Although there are big dogs at her house, she has gating throughout the house and yard to ensure that a little dog is always feeling safe!”
“Cece loves going to Catherine’s house for daycare! Catherine always sends pictures of Cece having a great day playing with the others and I know I can trust her to watch her. I was nervous because she is a small, young puppy but now she has been attending daycare for a few months and I am comfortable leaving her there without worry.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Veronique and Jonathan! They were amazing with my puppy, Oakley, providing her with exceptional doggy day care. They kept her active, engaged, and ensured she was well taken care of throughout the day. It was such a relief to know Oakley was in loving, capable hands. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care!”
“Jennifer is amazing!! It’s my first time using Rover for my puppy and she put all my nerves at ease. She sent daily pictures and updates which I really appreciated. Noodle can’t wait to go back! Thank you again Jennifer!”

Here are some fun activities I can do with the dogs I watch: Walking is a great way to provide dogs with exercise and mental stimulation. I Choose different routes and places to walk, such as a local park, beach, or hiking trail. Most dogs love playing fetch. I can take your dog or dogs with your permission to a fenced dog's park and play a game of fetch with a ball or frisbee. Dogs love to play with toys, such as squeaky toys or tug ropes.

About: I am a retired elementary school teacher and have taught children for the past 32 years. I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, and am eager to care for them when they are alone.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently own four dogs: two adult Belgian Malinois, a German Shepherd puppy, and a senior Shih Tzu mix. I have crate trained and potty trained multiple puppies and am familiar with the time, patience, and consistency required for successful training. Through caring for both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs, I have experience managing different exercise needs, routines, temperaments, and levels of care. I am committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every dog in my care. I am home most of the time and provide full-time care for the dogs in my home. Because I am available throughout the day, dogs receive regular supervision. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely go outside for potty breaks and exercise. I am comfortable reinforcing crate training when needed and believe crates are a valuable tool for safety and routine. My own dogs are crate trained and are crated when they cannot be directly supervised to ensure their safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. I provide a structured, safe, and supervised environment while making sure each dog receives plenty of attention, care, and opportunities to play and relax.

My husband and I are new to Long Island and I was so apprehensive to leave her but after my meet and greet with Dan and Denise I knew it was a good fit. They are communicative, trustworthy, and extremely empathetic towards your dogs needs. We had a great experience and will be using them for future services.”
About: I’m a retired professional with a calm, patient nature and a genuine love for animals. My sister has two dogs, one of whom is a super senior with special needs, so I’m very comfortable providing extra attention, patience, and thoughtful care. With a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to one-on-one care, I enjoy creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for dogs and cats. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medication routines, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering reliable care and true peace of mind to pet parents. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a retired professional, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around a pet’s needs rather than the other way around. I’m home for most of the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, medication schedules, and quiet companionship. I enjoy building consistent routines that help pets feel secure and comfortable, and I’m able to give them my full attention without feeling rushed. This flexibility also allows me to adapt easily to senior pets or those with special needs who may require extra time, patience, or monitoring. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs—whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow all feeding schedules carefully, provide fresh water, regular walks or playtime, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m especially attentive to senior and special-needs pets, including administering medications as directed and keeping a calm, consistent environment. In a client’s home, I respect their routines and space, making sure pets feel secure and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also keep pet parents updated with check-ins and notes so they can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I've always had a special connection with dogs. Ever since primary school, I volunteered to walk all my neighbors' dogs and would stay to play with them for hours—tug-of-war and frisbee were our favorites. I've walked dogs of all sizes, sometimes up to three at a time. Getting my own puppy was the best thing in the world for me, and I naturally have endless patience for animals. Throughout college, I walked and sat for my piano professor's dog for years—around the neighborhood, and I also drove him to dog parks and beaches. On top of that, I've volunteered at an animal shelter, cleaning dog and cat rooms and socializing with the animals. I currently can't have a dog of my own because I fly in and out for work. That's why I'm doing this part-time — it's never an assembly line for me. Each dog gets my full, individual attention, and I truly make friends with every one of them. I'm a sound designer and composer working on contract-based stage productions, which gives me a flexible schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — I walk dogs at least three times a day, feed them as many times as requested, and make sure they get plenty of playtime outside of my work hours. Since I'm not working a rigid 9-to-5, I can easily adjust my day around each dog's needs, whether that means extra cuddles, a longer walk, or a spontaneous trip to the dog park. Plus, because I fly in and out for work and can't have my own dog right now, caring for other people's dogs is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize every single day. I live in a first-floor condo apartment in a neighborhood with lots of green areas — perfect for dogs who love quick potty breaks and longer sniffing walks. I let dogs free roam throughout my home and they're absolutely allowed on furniture. I treat every dog as if they were my own, which means lots of freedom, comfort, and attention. Since I do this part-time, I never have more than two unfamiliar dogs at once, so each dog gets a calm, focused environment. I'm extremely respectful of their space and routines — I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions to the letter, and I always leave things cleaner than I found them.

“Above and beyond care. We booked a half hour walk. For 4pm, Elliot was very punctual. Our dog was out in the rain as was Elliot for the whole time. Helped beyond getting her out, it tired her out. We usually take her to the dog park for some running.”

About: My name is Morgan. I love animals no matter what type, breed, size or age. I have one dog and three cats, all of which I rescued from animal shelters. I love my pets more than anything, if you choose me to watch your pets, I can guarantee you I’ll treat them like my own pets! I am very organized and personable. I pride myself in being very tidy and respectful, especially while inside your home. I will focus 100% of my time on your pets while I am working with them because I find it very important to always show animals the love and attention they deserve. Please feel free to ask me any questions about me, my experience or my availability! I look forward to hearing from you! Pet care is honestly just woven into my daily routine at this point, it doesn't feel like a separate task. My mornings start with feeding and a walk, which actually gives me a great reason to get outside and move before I sit down to work. Throughout the day I'm mindful of keeping things consistent for them, meals, playtime, making sure they're not just sitting alone for too long. Evenings are usually when we wind down together, which I genuinely look forward to. It's one of those things that adds structure to my day without feeling like a chore, more like a grounding ritual than a responsibility. I care for pets the same way I'd want someone to care for mine, with consistency, attention, and a lot of patience. In my own home, that means sticking to a routine they can rely on: regular feeding times, daily walks or play sessions, and making sure their space is clean and comfortable. I pay close attention to their moods and energy levels because animals communicate a lot through behavior, and catching when something feels off early makes a big difference. When it comes to caring for a client's pet, I make it a priority to understand their specific needs before I ever step through the door. Every pet is different, different diets, different temperaments, different routines, and I take detailed notes on all of it. I follow the owner's instructions closely, keep their environment familiar and stress-free, and always communicate updates so the owner feels confident and informed while they're away. I treat their home with the same respect I'd want someone to show mine, and I treat their pet like my own.
“Takes the dog on nice long walks as requested and was very conscientious of how the dog was behaving and whether or not she was eating her food etc. Katharine went above and beyond to hand feed her when she wasn’t eating! Will definitely be calling Katharine again. Thank you!”

“This was the first time I used a dog walker to walk my dog and Madalyn did an excellent job, she was on time, and took care of her like she was her own dog. I am very happy and thankful that I found her. I highly recommend using her.”
“Samantha was great taking care of our dog. She’s so responsive to every message and we loved that we could set up a meet and greet before her check in! Our pup loved that he was able to get out while we were at work and I loved the thorough updates on how her visit went. We will definitely be using her for our future puppy needs! Thank you Samantha!!”
About: I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs since I was 13. I've had my own dogs, as well as caring for and watching many friends' and neighbors' dogs overnight. I simply adore dogs and I believe they can sense it. I'm very patient, calm, & will treat your dog with the upmost of care. I'm dedicated to dog sitting and walking! My schedule is flexible and I'm available 5 days (Sunday through Thursday in the day), and overnights Sunday through Thursday as well. I'm comfortable staying over a client's house. I'm respectful of property and very clean. I will become fast friends with your fur baby and play with them for hours.
About: I’ve grown up with pups both big and small. I have dog sat for a variety of families and have stayed overnight to watch their dogs and home. I have attention to detail and want to provide an environment of predictability and safety. I love dogs with all my heart and my hope is to take the burden off of families if they need someone to walk their dog. I work from home which is flexible. I can walk dogs before work, during my lunch break and after work. I love to be active and outside! I would care for pets in my clients home as I cannot have pets where I live. I have watched many dogs at various houses and also will clean and tidy up.
About: I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I grew up with a family dog and have cared for many of my friends’ and family members’ pets over the past 10 years. I’ve also trained my own dog and love learning new tips and techniques to help pets thrive. Whether it’s a quick walk around the block or a long hike on the trails, I truly enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I’m also hoping that by dog sitting and walking, I’ll finally convince my husband that it’s time for us to adopt our own pup soon! 🐶❤️ I currently work Tues-Thurs full time in NYC office and available most weekends. My husband and I enjoy filling our free time walking and caring for dogs. He and I both will care for your beloved furry baby like it is our own. I’m available most weekdays after work and weekends with notice. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or house rules and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. From walks and feedings to baths, medication, and extra snuggles — I’ll treat your pet like part of the family!
About: I follow instructions that are left for the pet, I interact with the pet alot and treat it as my own. I make sure it is given unconditional love and care that all animals deserve!! Part time in the afternoons or on the weekends with advanced notice. During the week after 5pm and on the weekends between 10am-9pm, unless it’s overnight then the hours are more flexible. I am in an enclosed apartment, that is spacious and has a patio for the pet to chill with fresh air. I also have a lot of areas to play around the complex that is friendly to four legged creatures, I live near numerous outdoor amenities including parks and beaches for the pet to explore. The entire neighborhood is very welcoming to pets and it could easily make a play date.
About: I am a 28 year old animal lover! I spoil every dog I encounter and believe dogs are better than some people. I treat all animals with love and respect, just as I treat my three current dogs. I have over 6 years of experience of working with animals, mostly in an animal shelter and grooming spa setting. As of now, I am available 6 days a week until about 12:30pm to walk your pups and/or stop by your home to make sure they are good for when you get home! I would be happy to help your day a little less stressful knowing your pup(s) are in good hands! I love all types of dogs big and small and would love to care for your pets.

“Jinay was literally the best sitter ever!! I’m always weary about leaving my pittie with separation anxiety with someone new but she just went above and beyond! She knew exactly how to deal with it and went above and beyond with her care. She even did a training day for her and another dog!! She sent me amazing adorable pics and vid’s all throughout her stay and I could see my dog was just having the best time! So glad I chose her :)”
“Rebooked Veronique and her husband because my anxious dog feels so at ease with them. They accepted the booking last min and we were able to enjoy a much needed date weekend in the city without worrying about our dog . Will definitely book again.”
About: For 15 years, I have loved and cared for my animals. I was lucky enough to receive excellent training for my shepherd/husky and incorporate the methods during interactions with other animals as well as my new puppy. I completely understand needing reliable care when away. Patience, exercise and attention work wonders!! I'm currently working remote on Thursdays and am able to fit walks in throughout the day as well as during weekends. A varied schedule is fine!! Ensuring the animal's environment is the same when I leave as when I arrive is necessary to prevent injury or any accident. My yard is completely fenced in and equipped to play and run!
“I recently had the pleasure of boarding my furry friends at this wonderful dog boarding house, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment I dropped my dog off, I knew they were in great hands. Christine were incredibly friendly and nice! Throughout my dog's stay, I received regular updates and pictures, which was a great comfort to me. I could tell that my dog was having an absolute blast - playing with other dogs, and watching TV shows.When I picked up my dog, they were happy, healthy, and tired out from all the fun they had been having. Overall, I would highly recommend this dog boarding house to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and fun place to board their dog. I will definitely be using their services again in the future!”
“Jennifer was such a great sitter and certainly deserves the star sitter status! She was extremely accommodating with our doggy meet up to make sure our puppy would be a great fit (and also extremely patient with Maya’s high energy!). From drop off to pick-up, Jennifer was in contact with us the whole time providing us with the updates and pictures she knew we needed! It was so difficult to be away from our fur baby for as long as we were but we felt comfortable with where she was and would 100% book with Jennifer again in the future!”
“Laurie and her husband, Cliff, recently cared for our dog while we were away on vacation. It was the first time our girl would be in the care of someone other than family and we were nervous with how she would acclimate to the situation. Any worries we had were quickly erased and our minds set at ease with the daily updates we received. The accompanying daily photos let us know that our girl was in great hands. She came home a happy, well fed, clean girl and we definitely will be using Laurie and Cliff again in the future.”
“Sent both my pups here while we went away for 5 days. They were very well taken care of and loved i got videos to see they were doing good! Will definitely be booking with Alejandro again”
“Gerald watched our dog in his home for 10 days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Our dog can get anxious when he's away from home, but he was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout his stay. Gerald took him on walks in the nearby park and provided excellent care. He was also a fantastic communicator, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“Kellie was an absolute delight and I’m so thankful to have found her for my trip! She was communicative, sent pictures and most important (to me) she was patient with my shy pup!! 10/10 recommend and will re book with her! 🫶🏼🤍🫶🏼”
“Amazing to have found Joanne. We left our 6 month old puppy to travel for 6 days. Joanne did an excellent job taking care of our pup. He had a great time and the updates were excellent.”
“Freedom was a huge help when we had to book at the last minute due to a family emergency. They were very nice to Cleo and accommodated her food needs and energy level. They also made a very cute portrait of Cleo and gifted her a bandana, which she is still wearing and loving. I highly recommend Freedom to others looking for a sitter.”
“Vanessa was absolutely AMAZING! She provided daily updates, photos and bonus videos! Lola was taken care of and loved just as much as she is at home. We are using Vanessa for our other family trip at the end of this month and I can feel at ease knowing that she will be a responsive and reliable sitter!”
