“Michele was great, she took good care of Zuko and sent a ton of pictures. She was accommodating and flexible to his needs as well. Thank you to Michele for being a great sitter”
“Vanessa was great with Domino! He was comfortable the moment we got there for our meet and greet. She has two dogs of her own and watched a couple others during his stay, which he thoroughly enjoyed. She definitely spoiled him too. I'm surprised he even came home. Vanessa was also very good at sending pictures and videos. I would definitely use her again for future needs.”
“Narly is the best host you can find. I always feel at ease when I’m away from Luna knowing Narly and Princess are taking care of her. Narly surpasses the five star rating.”
“Joanna did an excellent job taking care of my dog, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. She was very communicative throughout the entire process, always keeping me updated and making me feel comfortable while I was away. Her availability and flexibility were also greatly appreciated and made scheduling very easy. On top of that, everything was kept clean and organized, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about providing a safe and comfortable environment. Thank you again, Joanna, for taking such great care of my little guy!”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“Clean house, secure backyard, and updated photos of my wonderful pet!! What else could I ask for? Michelle was a wonderful host who made my pet (and me) feel safe and calm. From the photos, my Mila felt right at home. To end Mila's visit, she was given a "to go" gift bag from this super host. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Margarita and Cristian were great with my Joey. He's a senior cutie and this was our first pet sitting experience. He was happy when I dropped him off and picked him up which which made my heart so happy.”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter, Samantha! She took such great care of our dog, Nugget, while we were away. She kept us updated with regular messages and the cutest pictures, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that Nugget was having a great time—he went on plenty of walks and got to play outside often, which he absolutely loves. We could tell he was happy, well cared for, and in very good hands. Thank you so much for treating Nugget like family! We highly recommend her and would definitely book again.”
“Nilka is a treasure. She is extremely loving to animals, showers them with attention and walks and very communicative, sending photos and updates. Boarding with Nilka is a vacation for your pooch. Highly recommended! I will use her every time she's available.”
“We love having Rory stay with Janine. This was Rory’s 3rd stay, and she practically dragged me to Janine’s door at drop off. Janine is very communicative, reliable, and creates a safe space for Rory. She’s flexible with last minute requests and arranging drop-off and pick-up, and sends regular photos. Janine pays particular attention to Rory’s needs and comfort, and was very gratified at Rory’s increased comfort upon her third stay. We love Janine and will use her again soon.”
“Wendy and her family did a great job taking care of sparkle. I picked her up yesterday and I do believe sparkle is still looking for Wendy and family. We would definitely have you sit for sparkle again thank you.”

“I love having Churchie stay with Mingyon and her family. They are always so nice and church Always has such a great time. Thank you so much.”
“Sam and her family hosted our cockapoo Diamond for a week. Working with Sam was an amazing experience from the first day we inquired! Diamond's stay was amazing, he had lots of fun which we could tell by all the photos that were sent to us. He was loved and taken very good care of for the week. Sam is also a great communicator which was very important to us because Diamond can be a little particular and a picky eater. Sam kept us informed about how Diamond was eating and how he was adapting to his new environment. Hands down we give Sam 10 stars🌟!”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for fish, cats, dogs, and reptiles. I used to volunteer at the animal shelter back home. I’ve fostered puppies and kittens for almost 10 years; since I was in high school. It fits in my daily life cause I myself have two beautiful puppers named Scooby and Lola who I feed a mostly raw diet. Scooby is 5 years old and a very active boy who’s an avid long distance walker, Lola is still just a puppy I will follow exact instructions as provided by the owner of the pet(s) and I can offer suggestions and basic training for pets upon request.
“I would like to start by saying, in general I am a skeptical person who does not trust people with my dog because like others, my dog is my child. With that being said, I needed a dog sitter short notice while I went on a family vacation to Africa and prior arrangements fell through. Hesitant, I knew that a sitter would be best for me because I didn’t like the idea of boarding him at a facility. My dog weighs 4 lbs and is still a puppy, he seeks love and companionship. While scrolling through Rover I found Diane and I am happy I did. She was amazing in every aspect. She kept me posted about my dog with text, videos, and pictures several times throughout the day. She gave him sooooo much love and affection, responded fast and answered any questions I might have. She was very accommodating to me and Kobe. She treated him like he was her dog. She even sent him off with a gift. I trust her so much and will be sure to book with her over and over again. Thank you so much Diane. If you are looking a for someone who will love and provide good, safe care for your dog please book Diane.”
“It was such a pleasure to have Shirley watch our dog. He is a senior dog and requires additional attention. Shirley was amazing and keeping us up to date on how he was doing and he honestly was on vacation himself. He had so much fun!”

“Casey was amazing and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our cats in her care, she checked in daily, sent plenty of photos, spent time with them as well as taking the extra time to play with them. One of our cats is a little more skittish than the other and she put in the effort to make sure she was relaxed and comfortable. She’s very reliable and sweet would absolutely use her again in the future”
“Minyon us SUPER accommodating. Even with my hectic schedule and several emergencies at once, she understood and gave me grace through every step of the process. When my pups met her, they instantly fell in love with her. She sent videos and pictures every visit and made sure to take them on nice long walks... which my pups love. I would ABSOLUTELY book with Minyon again!”

About: Hi! I’ve had cats most of my life and there is nothing sweeter than coming home to a purring kitty at your feet! I’ve had very affectionate cats and some more independent, but I’m the end, all want love! One of my most sweetest fur babies was my cat, Shadow Madeline. She was a beautiful black princess, with white on her paws and on her belly. She had a great personality and was so regal! I adored her!
“Anna was a huge help! She was able to accommodate a last minute drop in visit request after another sitter had to unexpectedly drop out. She was very responsive to communications and was great with sending daily updates! I felt at ease with knowing Tini was in good hands. Would highly recommend!”
“Grace was fantastic with sky . Came early every day,took pictures and we spoke on phone. Litter box was clean everyday and sky ate well. Grace came to meet sky 3 weeks before her work day and met me and sky ! I would use her again and highly recommende you do as well !”
“Caitlyn was fantastic! It was clear the cats felt comfortable and at home with her dropping in to take care of them. She came for a meet and greet ahead of time and went above and beyond with photos during each visit. With care and professionalism Caitlyn shows I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their fur-babies.”
About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Jane. I’ve been caring for dogs in their own homes for 10 years and I can honestly say, I love what I do. There’s something really special about a dog who barely notices their owner left because they’re too busy having a good time. I enjoy leaving clients to wonder if I even stayed — everything is just as they left it, with one exception: a happier pet. I specialize in walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting, all in the comfort of your pet’s own home. I learn their routine, respect their quirks, and treat your space the way I’d want someone to treat mine. You’ll hear from me regularly with updates, photos, and videos of your dear girl or sweet boi. If you like the mundane, you’ll hear from us — me and your dog (or cat, or gerbil, or boa python — we’re all inclusive here). If you’d love to see the reasons strangers fall for your sweet girlie or darling boi, you’ll definitely hear from me while your loved one is in my care. Once you reach out, I’ll schedule a complimentary meet and greet to make sure me and your special four-legged loved one are a good match. Spoiler: we usually are. 🐾 🐾 Providing care for your loved one is built into my week, not mushed into it. Available weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. 🐾 🐾 This is where the complimentary meet and greet pays off for you. Because we’ve spoken ahead of time, it’s even easier for me to keep your pet on their usual routine, respect your home, and stay in consistent communication so you always know your dog is doing well. There are legends abound of me leaving my client’s place a little cleaner than I found it too. 🐾
“Tatiana is the best. This is the second time she takes care of our elderly cat and we feel so lucky to have her while away. Would highly recommend her for your pets. She is caring, knowledgeable and very good with animals that require extra care (our kittty is 17 and needs daily medication plus extra care). We also love that she sends a detailed report of each and every visit with tons of pictures.”
About: As a proud mother of two beautiful tabbies, I was able to enjoy caring for them for 15 years. I appreciate the company of most animals but in particular am very fond of cats. Although my beautiful daughters have gone to heaven, my desire to be around cats has continued. I have been fortunate to pet sit the feline in my family and continue the loving care I provided for my daughters. I just love animals in general and enjoy being around them. Even the skirmish sometimes realize my intentions are pure and often allow me to be near them but you can’t win them all. I really enjoy the opportunities to visit cat cafes which I find to be a fabulous outlet for spending quality time with these purfect furbabies.
“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our old kitty. She kept us updated throughout her visit and provided us with pictures to assure us that our kitty was safe and sound. We highly recommend Sarah! We will certainly be using her again.”
About: Hi, my name is Jalal! I’m 22 years old and I have over 4 years of experience caring for cats. I understand that every cat has its own personality some love cuddles, others prefer space and I adapt to each pet’s needs. I can help with: • Feeding and fresh water • Litter box cleaning • Playtime and enrichment • Daily check-ins or overnight sitting I’m calm, patient, and very attentive to details, making sure your cat feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands 🐾
About: Cats are one of the most misunderstood creatures. Independent? Sure. Mysterious? Absolutely. But pound for pound, they are as loving, loyal, and protective as any dog. They just make you earn it first…and honestly, fair enough. My appreciation for cats came later in life, after finally outgrowing a stubborn allergy. I've since made up for it with time as a shelter volunteer and the go-to sitter for the cat people in my life. (And I never walk into a corner store without checking for the resident kitty 🐈) Whether I'm being honored with headbutts from my dad's cat Sweetie, surviving the bunny kicks of my cat nephew Loki, or mastering the art of multi-cat household diplomacy for my friend's trio, one thing stays the same: Every cat gets treated like the enigmatic little royalty they are.

We received multiple updates with videos and pictures throughout the day and Ingrid was quick to respond as well. Kennedy enjoyed running around in the yard! Highly recommend Ingrid and we will be using her again!”
“Vanessa is a gem - responsive, polite, clean, caring, loving, and always available. We were looking for a pet sitter who could provide a loving and stable environment for our pup with separation anxiety, as we wanted to reduce his reliance on medication. Vanessa exceeded our expectations, providing a calm and nurturing presence that has greatly benefited our Blaze. We're grateful to have found her, and her care has given us peace of mind. If you're seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter, Vanessa is an excellent choice.”

“Tyler took amazing care of my senior dog, Tyler— yes, Tyler took care of Tyler. ? They had a good time together that was evidenced by the pictures received every three hours. It was my first time leaving Tyler at all in over 6 months, so was quite nervous. For someone as worried as I am, I felt safe leaving Tyler with Tyler and will definitely book them again in the future if they’re willing. I can tell that Tyler genuinely cares for the animals they dog sit for and that’s very important to me— TOP NOTCH CARE!!”
“Peggy was great! Easy to work with, flexible, and really cared about our dog. We were traveling through her area and she walked Maple both right when we arrived after a 3 hour car drive and right before we picked up Maple with another leg of travel ahead of us- I think she really thought about the fact our dog had been traveling and would need a good long walk ♥️”
“Aliyah was great with Toulouse. He’s a pretty nervous dog and was recovering from heat exhaustion and ripped up paws and she (and Deuce!) were incredibly loving, gentle, and patient with him.”

I provide nurturing care for puppies, ensuring safe and positive walks that cater to their curiosity. For senior dogs, I offer a peaceful companionship, mindful of their slower pace and physical needs. --- Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or requires extra attention.

“I have left my dog, Oaklin, with Caitlyn several times now. He absolutely adores her. They play, walk, get plenty of pets, cuddle on the couch. I don't trust any pup sitter more than I do Caitlyn. 10/10 recommend.”
“Michelle was great! She responded quickly and sent several pictures throughout the day. Our pup had a great day with her and even got a special treat to take home. We will definitely use her again!”
About: Life is better with fur babies !! I have two cats of my own that are literally my babies. I can’t wait to look after yours as if they were my own. I love looking after cats and dogs. Especially high energy dogs that are up for a good walk! I’m currently working part time so I am available all week. The best time is weekends and evenings during the week. So I have a lot of time to spoil your fur baby! I have a spacious apartment that furbabies can roam freely. Dogs/puppies are always welcomed to bring toys of their own. For cats I have toys and small kitty condos that they may use if you would like.
“We booked Rose at the last minute because our regular sitter was out of town. She was extremely accommodating, even considering that she only got a day’s notice. She was very good with Jax, even sending us updates and pictures throughout the day. I felt extremely comfortable. Will definitely be booking her again in the future.”

About: Hello! We are RuthAnn and Brandon, a husband and wife duo of lifelong dog lovers. We know that your dog isn’t just a pet… they are FAMILY! That’s why when your pup stays with us they aren’t just “guest dogs” they become a part of our family too. Plus there’s two of us so this means TWICE the love and attention of a regular sitter :) A little bit about us: We are the proud “aunt and uncle” to our family dogs, West and Sadie. We’ve added them to our profile so you can get to know more about them there. While they don’t live with us they visit us often and they are very friendly, so if they happen to be over during your pups stay, that just means more friends to play with! I am currently a nursing student in my last semester and my husband works in sales! So one of the biggest perks of booking with us is that our schedules are flexible. At least one of us is always home. So your pup will have constant companionship, potty breaks and plenty of belly rubs thought the day. We also have a large fully fenced yard that’s perfect for zoomies or a game of fetch! We want you to have total peace of mind when you book with us, so we offer meet and greets prior to booking, as well as regular updates, photos and videos of all the fun your dog is having. We can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Seamlessly because we are home based and flexible. Between the two of us, your dog will have constant supervision and a routine tailored to their needs! We live in a fully fenced home so your pup has full access to a safe fenced yard for supervised play of course. Because Brandon and I are home, your pup gets a perfect balance of activity and rest.

“Christina did a great job watching our pup. She sent many cute pictures and updates, and Soho came back so tired from playing. Cant wait for her next doggy day care visit!”
About: Hi I'm Nicole! I’ve been dog-sitting for over 4 years for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company! I make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m a college student, so I’m home during breaks (including holidays) and for about four months in the summer. I also come home frequently on weekends during the school year. In the summer, I’m available any time of the week and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I have a large yard where dogs can play and get plenty of exercise, and I always make sure to supervise them while they’re outside. My home is a spacious two-story house where dogs are free to roam and feel comfortable. I treat every dog like my own and many have even slept in my bed! I also have experience adjusting to each dog’s needs, whether that means crating them, sticking to a routine, or giving them extra attention and care.
“We really appreciated and not being able to take our Sofie so last minute. She was very pleasant and friendly. Her accommodations were clean and orderly. Sofie took to her right away. I know that if I’m in the area, she is the person I will call!”

“Marika was always on time and communicative throughout this entire process. This is the first time I’ve used something like this and she made the experience easy. I was away, but my mother was here to stay with kennedy, and according to her experience, she said she came on time and really did take care of the dog during his walks. He would be very excited when he saw her through the window and ready to start his walk with her. And when he came back, he was tired a lot more calm than he’s been especially for being six months it was really impressive. She’s definitely someone I’m gonna reconsider hiring again if I need her for this type of situation. Also would like to point out that we loss his poop bag holder and she replaced it free of charge with one she had at home. Which she didn’t have to do. But I still appreciate so much.”
“Gabrielle is amazing with my black lab, Pluto. He loves the walks and gets super excited to see her. She walks him typically 3 days a week. Also she feeds him for me as well. She does a great job.”
About: I've dog-sat on multiple occasions responsibly. I have experience giving dogs medication and making sure they are taken out, kept comfortable, and cared for. I have sat for puppies as well as senior dogs. I also have grown up taking care of cats of all ages. Any more information needed, such as refernces id be more than happy to give. Thank you! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already take care of my own cat every day. Feeding, cleaning, checking in, and making sure my pet feels safe and comfortable are already part of my normal schedule. I’m also active and enjoy walking, so taking dogs out for walks, playtime, and check-ins is something I’m comfortable fitting into my week. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure to follow each owner’s instructions closely so their pet stays on their normal routine. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, bathroom breaks, medications if needed, and any special routines.
“If you are looking for a dog walker Caitlyn is the one! She is attentive, on time, professional and just amazing! She takes a load off while I work to come by take care of my lil golden doodle!”
About: I've taken care of many pets ever since I was a little girl. Always had pets in the house, dogs, cats, even guinea pigs and a mouse. I also used to volunteer as a kid at my camp to work with the animals in the stables like the goats, bunnies, and brushing the horses. As I got older my love for animals never wavered, so I went to high school and I majored in agricultural sciences and spent my first summer there on our land-lab taking care of not only an arrange of animals, but plants as well. I also volunteered at a pet store near my high school caring for stray animals that were brought in, and at one point a bunch of baby kittens, alongside my best friend. I have always loved dogs and cats most and would love to have them as pets again. My family and I started our pet sitting Journey when we used to live out in Florida, it's been almost 2 years now, since moving back to New York City . We have gotten the chance to sit many furry four legged friends, and now I have two of our own. We would still love the opportunity to continue to caring for other's pets as well. My kids and I used to feed and give love to some of the strays we'd see in our neighborhood, back in Florida( unofficial cat lady lol 😅 ). We cannot wait to care for your furry, four legged family member. Home is well air conditioned, space to accommodate a crate if you have, and will be able to give walks around area, or nearby park. You can rest assured your pet will get lots of love and attention, as my children LOVE animals as much as I do, and jump to the opportunity to assist me with them I'm currently working part-time, so I am usually able to give walks in the morning, and in the evening after 6:00 p.m. However, on my days off, I can give walks at least three times a day. I would be able to work out a schedule that might be accommodating for the both of us. I would prefer to have them dropped off during the evening's, after 7pm. We adopted a Maltese/ Silky terrier mix dog(female), and a Chihuahua/ Terry mix dog (male). I use our bedrooms (mine and the kids) to place them in, to accommodate while the other dog is out. Or, we can use the backyard or crate.
“I can't thank Aniyah enough for taking such wonderful care of my pups while I was out of town! It gave me so much peace of mind to know they were in such kind, capable hands. The updates, photos, and attention to detail were all fantastic — it was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I came home to two very content (and well-exercised!) pups. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you!! 🐾”
“Jane was not only wonderful with our dogs, but proved extremely reliable during an extended weekend where we were out of town and all of our discussed plans were disrupted by the unforeseen—storms, road closures, etc. She provided clear and timely communication in dealing with changes, and we quickly felt comfortable trusting her best judgment to both attend to and care for our two dogs.”
“Tyler was super communicative. My puppy was super happy when she got home so I know she had a good walk. Tyler also took a lot of pics. Will definitely book again!”
“Juliana is wonderful ! We haven’t walked Dewy the last 2 days and totally forgot about the weather. I confirmed with Juliana then my husband reminded me it’s going to rain. She still came and took my boy to the dog park. The rain wouldn’t stop so I ask her to bring him back if the rain keeps on going. We can’t wait to see Juliana again in a nicer weather.”
“Dayanara Has been a lifesaver this week. My dog is huge and can appear to be intimidating. Dayanara was able to see past her size and focus in on her sweet personality. I have a recommend her services. Additionally, she offers walking tips and sends pictures which make memories for my family.”
“Peggy was AMAZING! This was our first time using Rover, so we were nervous about leaving our Prince, but I knew we were in great hands the first time we all met. From her walk-by-walk update, videos and pics of their FANTASTIC jaunts to even helping my Mom, who was staying with Prince while we traveled, Peggy went above and beyond making sure we were as OK being away from him as he was. She not only became our go-to for Prince’s care, she’s truly became part of our family!”

I am currently (as of june 2026) working part-time as a naturalist for Nassau BOCES. I often teach programs during the day but am regularly available for overnight stays and mid-day check ins. My program locations change daily but are all located within nassau county, and can be shared with you at the beginning of the month. I take great pride in providing the best care for your pup, helping them to stay on your set routines. While staying at your home, I will provide enrichment, exercise, and basic training along with tons of cuddles and love. I can crate dogs or have them cuddle up in bed with me depending on your preferences. Walks, feedings, and drop in can be scheduled at your convenience, barring my schedule for my daytime work.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who enjoys spending quality time with pups of all sizes—though I do have a soft spot for the little ones! Long walks while listening to music and bonding with dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, which is why I take a gentle, kind-hearted approach—using soft touches, a calm voice, and plenty of patience to build trust and connection. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or a peaceful stroll, I'm here to make your pup feel right at home. I am currently working full-time, so I can only provide care on weekends. I am a teacher, so once the summer hits on June 28th I can care for pets all hours of the day! Safety and trust are always my top priorities—whether your dog is staying with me or I’m visiting them in their own home. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs so they feel at ease from the start. I create a calm, cozy environment by using soft tones, gentle touches, and lots of positive reinforcement. In my home, I make sure the space is safe, clean, and dog-friendly, with plenty of room to relax, play, or nap. I follow any feeding, medication, or exercise routines you provide to keep things consistent and comfortable. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I give my own—keeping things tidy, sticking to your pup’s routine, and making sure they feel safe in their familiar surroundings.

“Vanessa was great with Domino! He was comfortable the moment we got there for our meet and greet. She has two dogs of her own and watched a couple others during his stay, which he thoroughly enjoyed. She definitely spoiled him too. I'm surprised he even came home. Vanessa was also very good at sending pictures and videos. I would definitely use her again for future needs.”
“We love having Rory stay with Janine. This was Rory’s 3rd stay, and she practically dragged me to Janine’s door at drop off. Janine is very communicative, reliable, and creates a safe space for Rory. She’s flexible with last minute requests and arranging drop-off and pick-up, and sends regular photos. Janine pays particular attention to Rory’s needs and comfort, and was very gratified at Rory’s increased comfort upon her third stay. We love Janine and will use her again soon.”
“Ruth-Ann was exceptional! Thank you so much for taking great care of Cookie. We appreciate the videos and pics that you sent during her stay. We didn't worry because we were confident that she was in good hands. We'll definitely book you again!”
“I love having Churchie stay with Mingyon and her family. They are always so nice and church Always has such a great time. Thank you so much.”
“Sam and her family hosted our cockapoo Diamond for a week. Working with Sam was an amazing experience from the first day we inquired! Diamond's stay was amazing, he had lots of fun which we could tell by all the photos that were sent to us. He was loved and taken very good care of for the week. Sam is also a great communicator which was very important to us because Diamond can be a little particular and a picky eater. Sam kept us informed about how Diamond was eating and how he was adapting to his new environment. Hands down we give Sam 10 stars🌟!”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for fish, cats, dogs, and reptiles. I used to volunteer at the animal shelter back home. I’ve fostered puppies and kittens for almost 10 years; since I was in high school. It fits in my daily life cause I myself have two beautiful puppers named Scooby and Lola who I feed a mostly raw diet. Scooby is 5 years old and a very active boy who’s an avid long distance walker, Lola is still just a puppy I will follow exact instructions as provided by the owner of the pet(s) and I can offer suggestions and basic training for pets upon request.
“It was such a pleasure to have Shirley watch our dog. He is a senior dog and requires additional attention. Shirley was amazing and keeping us up to date on how he was doing and he honestly was on vacation himself. He had so much fun!”
“Dayanara was so helpful and was able to watch our dog, Ginger, for a last minute booking. She sent updates, included photos, throughout each day. It was good to know that Ginger was being cared for while we were away. This was our second booking with her and we hope to use her services again in the future.”
“I am so appreciative for the incredibly wonderful warm care Tanu gave Meli. Tanu and her two terrific sons were attentive, loving, and treated Meli like their own. Tanu made sure Meli got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddle time. Tanu worked hard to make it seem like Meli was also on vacation! It is such a relief to know someone so responsible and kind was taking care of my dog. I will certainly use Tanu to care for Meli... (more at r.rover.com/hCMSHg )”
“Peggy was such amazing to my dog. She’s truly a dog lover especially to a big dog. I’ve been boarding my dog at a few places but non of them were willing to walk a 85lbs dog daily like Peggy did to my dog. She even showed me how to control my dog if he pulls the leash. She took a very good care of my dog liked her own. It made me felt at ease of knowing he’s in a good hand. Thank you so much Peggy. Crypto will be sure to miss his walk with you & he’ll be coming back in the future😀.”
“Thank you so much for your excellent work with my baby. Thank you for all the pictures and updates, that allowed me to enjoy my trip. Austin's was very happy. Thank you so much for everything!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our 8-year-old Greyhound (Annie) with Tyler! After reaching out, we set up a meet and greet where Tyler showed us around and made us and Annie comfortable with the environment. When we came to drop Annie off, Tyler came out to greet us and even helped carry some items inside! During the stay, Tyler sent photos to us every two hours! On top of that, Tyler took Annie on at least four to five walks a day (many more than she gets at home!) Tyler was attentive to our concerns and shared updates that were important to us. Namely, Tyler let us know when Annie finally began eating her (she's a picky east, especially when she's not at home). When we came to pick Annie up, Tyler was just as helpful as when we dropped her off. He brought all the items out to our car, which was a great help after a long and tiring weekend for us. We will DEFINITELY be reaching out to Tyler in the future!”
“We had to leave Nene and Scrappy with Jonisha and her family for a weekend while we were traveling, and once again, we did so with complete peace of mind, knowing they would be well cared for and loved. This time, Nene had a small rash on her back left leg that required the application of topical ointment twice daily. Jonisha and her family not only assured us they would handle it but went above and beyond by putting a soft cone on Nene to prevent her from licking the hot spot. Their attentiveness and care truly exceeded our expectations. As usual, Jonisha and her family kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures. It warmed my heart to see how well-cared-for and at ease Nene and Scrappy were. They fit right in with Jonisha’s family and her two dogs. The videos showed them outside, romping around and active, while the pictures captured them snuggling and resting together, as well as with Jonisha and her family members. Knowing that they were so loved and happy gave me immense comfort. Once again, Jonisha and her family delivered exceptional care. We couldn’t be happier with them and wouldn’t dream of entrusting Nene and Scrappy to anyone else. It’s clear they treat our dogs as if they were their own, and that level of love and dedication means the world to us. The girls were even excited to see Jonisha and her sister when we dropped them off, which speaks volumes about the bond they share. How could you not want that kind of care for your dogs when leaving them with a sitter?”
“Super caring and considerate. She took such good care of my pup and was very attentive and friendly. She sent regular pictures and videos and I knew my dog was happy eating and well taken care of”
“Iwona was great with Mason! Really appreciated how well he looked upon pick up. It was clear she took the time to groom his face while he was in her care. He was a very happy and content little boy in her care.”
“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”
“You guys are amazing. I have a very active dog and I know he had fun. Very big back yard for him run around. The daily updates are perfect. Will definitely recommend to others and to use again”
