“Alycia took great care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay. She was very responsive, sent photos and updates, and made us feel comfortable while we were away. We appreciated the communication and would be happy to book with her again.”
“We were very happy with Kim. She communicates really well and is great with dogs. We were using another sitter and we would get our dog returned a hot mess— but not with Kim. She is very kind, and caters to our dog’s needs and preferences to make their stay very easy and comfortable.”
“Tricia watched my 2 cats for a week and a half. She wasn't just a sitter, she LOVED on the kitties and the kitties loved on her and her 2 sweet kids as well! Her home is very clean, nice, very warm and homey feeling. She has all the accommodations needed to watch cats and dogs! She kept me posted with lots of pictures and updates which made it so much easier to relax and not worry while on vacation!”
“Lauren and Wynn were awesome with our 4 year old boxer! It sounds like he had a great time they sent a few pics of him playing. We would love to use them in the future! Thanks so much for watching Buck!”
“Such a great sitter!!! Nancy was fantastic with our senior pupp, Domino. Her communication was fantastic, and he kept us fully updated with pictures during his stay. We look forward to booking Nancy to care for Domi during our future travels!”
“My pup seemed to have a great time and came home tired and happy! Stephanie sent us daily pictures, which meant a lot to us, and she was easily available for communication. We would definitely board with her again!”
“Ryan was great with London and sent photos of her while we were away. London has stayed with Ryan a few times now and we trust him to take care of our dog, and will book again.”
“I asked Rebecca to watch my dog for the day when our travel schedules became hectic and I couldn’t leave him at home alone for such long stretches of time. Rebecca was so accommodating and responsive, even with such a last minute request. My dog absolutely loved his day with her family, getting all the love and attention he could handle. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”
“Katie and her family took such good care of our pup! The videos and photos they sent made me confident that I had picked the right person to care for our baby! Would 100% recommend to anyone!”
“They did a wonderful job with our Tessie. Would of loved to seen more photos, but I was also very aware of the weather back home and you can only do so many, dog resting in a bed because it's raining or overly hot outside. They didnt describe anything that would of been out of the norm for our dog or outside typical dog behavior. I'm glad my dog didn't do something out of the norm that would have caused damage to there home. Like a family watching your child. You don't want to hear the child got out of control and destroy a priceless possession you can't replace. Very respectful family with loving and caring kids. Would easily recommend them for watch your pet.”
“Erin and her family took wonderful care of our dog Maddy. It was such a relief knowing Maddy was loved on and taken care of while we were out of town. She is very quickly responsive and reached out to me with pictures and updates thru out the day. Erin also accommodated us last second as our previous arrangements fell thru and even got us in for a meet and greet the same day I reached out to her. Your dog will be loved on by 5 humans, walked, and entertained while staying in Erin’s home. It is tough for us to find sitters for our dog because she is dog selective. This was the perfect arrangement for our pup and we will definitely be having our dog stay with them again!”
“Jonathan was very patient and flexible. He took great care of Cincy and Raleigh with pictured every day. We would definitely use Jonathan again!”
“They were great with my puppy, Brady! I got daily updates with photos. Brady loved the daily play dates and seemed to have an awesome time! Would absolutely take him back to Tasha & Joseph’s.”
“Wonderful family! Ben, Kelle, and their kids were just amazing and welcomed Bella into their family while we were traveling. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her.”
“Paige, Stephen and family cared for our dog, Duncan, so well! He became part of their family while we were gone and I could tell that Duncan was thriving while with them. He especially loved playing with their kids which helped keep his sense of normalcy compared to our home! Would definitely recommend this family to anyone :)”
“I highly recommend Dion. He was very friendly and his dog was also nice to our dog. Dion was kind to send photos and showed my dog was doing well during his stay. I felt he was well cared for.”

“Mengshu and Thomas were fabulous to work with! They dropped in on my cats over the weekend. They paid extra attention to them, took a ton of photos, and even brought a toy over one day. I could definitely tell from the photos that the cats had warmed up to them very quickly. I am looking forward to booking with them for our next travels. 10/10 would recommend!”

“I would 100% recommend Emily to anyone who wants to be confident their cat is well loved and cared for while on a trip. Emily didn’t hesitate when my cat had a couple messes and cleaned up after him. When I got back, my cat did not show any signs of stress which was great to see! Overall, Emily was great to schedule with. She was super flexible when my trip timeline changed and I was impressed with her consistency in communication.”
“Devynne was wonderful taking care of my Jameson. I was so nervous leaving my baby for the first time but she sent lots of videos which helped so much! Would absolutely recommend her.”
“Second time I've trusted my girls with Stephanie while I was away for an extended period and once again she was fantastic. She was there for every visit during the agreed upon time, even on Thanksgiving day. If she was going to be unusually early or late, then she cleared it with me first. It's a huge relief knowing that I've got someone so reliable looking after my cats when I'm away”
“Lauren and Wynn were great. I booked them close to my trip date and they were able to squeeze me into their schedule. Prompt responses during booking and they sent several pics during each visit. Would definitely use them again.”
“Naomi took excellent care of our Kitties! With her knowledge & love for all cats we felt fortunate & confident with our Kitties in her care. Her attention to bringing in the mail & daily photos/videos was an extra bonus! 5🌟 all the way! We will rebook and would highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs on and off all my life different sizes, ages, and personalities. I provide walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and lots of attention to help pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine and keeping owners updated. My goal is to give every pet the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I work part time as well as side jobs as I am home from college for the summer. Lots of free time during the day. In clients’ homes, I respect their space while ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away.
“Andrea did an outstanding job taking care of our cat during our vacation. She communicated regularly and provided frequent updates and pictures too! I know our kitty was well cared for and given lots of love and attention. We highly recommend Andrea!”

About: Hi there! My name is Bri and through the years I have cared for a wide variety of dogs - family pets, fosters, medically fragile/complex, puppies, extremely timid, and senior. I took my grandma's 10-year-old dog in and cared for her until she passed at 18-and-a-half years old. I also fostered a mama and her six puppies (all had ringworm) that were each adopted out to amazing families and then I adopted the mom (Layla) who is still with me today! I work a hybrid job so some days I’m home all day, others I’m in and out. Either way though, our dogs can play the whole day! I am available for daycare and overnights. Excited to connect! I have a fenced-in yard and my sweet pup, Layla, to keep your dog company! I genuinely love dogs of all kinds and give lots of kisses, cuddles, scratches and affirmations throughout the day. Your fur baby will be well loved here!
“I love having Kristina care for my fur babies. She always goes above and beyond and even visits a little longer than scheduled. She recents stayed over her visit to comfort one of my cats who had recently lost his brother and this was our first trip leaving since he had passed. So kind of her. 💕 When I travel I know they are in excellent care.”
“Monica is so professional, responsive and trustworthy! We love having her take care of Gadget and Calvin and are so happy with the attention and care she has provided to our sweet pets!”
About: While I’m more experienced with dogs than cats, I still have just as big a place in my heart for our feline companions. I’ve had 2 cats in my life, and love a cats more calm, gentle nature as compared to dogs. Their love is more difficult to earn, and some may say that makes it more valuable. Either way, cat parents know there’s a special difference in the way a cat loves us, and it’s something that requires patience and a calm demeanor which is where I thrive as a cat-sitter. Whether you have an energetic and playful kitten, a laid back sunbather, or a nervous scaredy cat who spends most of their time under the bed, I bring intuitive care into your cats space and know how to meet them where they’re at.

“This will be the third week in a row that my Roxxie will be attending doggy day care with her two new dog friends in Nancy’s home. It’s so amazing that I can go to work and not have to worry at all if my dogs being well cared for. Nancy is the best!”
“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan again.”
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
About: We have watched many pets over the years and are finally bringing our love to the masses. :) We truly love all animals (every where we have lived animals indoor/outdoor just flock to us it seems ha). We give them the care they deserve and treat every last one as if it were our own personal pet. We have also had several pets through the years that needed medical attention daily (generally giving medication) and understand the importance of maintaining medicine/medical care in a very timely manner. If you are looking for the best care for your pet, look no further this family of pet lovers is where its at. We took a little time off to focus on some other things but we are back at it and ready to love and care for your pet better than anyone on this app 😀♥️ (we might be biased). I work from home full time so I am here almost 24 hrs/day to care for your lovely pet. On the weekends we come and go for short periods of time but generally we are home 80% of the weekend at least. We welcome long and short term pet stays, we just love pets. I have kids who "LOVE" to entertain/give attention to pets and try to teach them new tricks. I have several nearby dog parks, and 1 dog of my own. I have a Black Lab/Great Dane mix about 5 yrs old. He loves having other pets around after he get his sniffs in :)
“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
“Rebecca and her husband were wonderful! I immediately felt comfortable in there home! Jackz our dog is blind and Rebecca was not only willing but happy to help us and Jackz out!”
“Dottie goes to Emma’s all day, 3 days a week and just loves it! She gets so excited as soon as we pull in the driveway! Emma is responsive, helpful, kind, gentle and great with my little dog!”
About: Hello! A little bit about me: A student who is crazy about animals and would take care of your lovely friend/son/daughter (haha) as if they were part of my family . I was raised around dogs and cats and when I grow up, I decided that I would want to work for their own good. I was part of an Animal Welfare Organization in my hometown and hosted some homeless dogs and cats and took care of them until we find a new family for them. I'm so grateful for everything I've done for the animals, and if I could, I'd do way more. I live in a house with a big fenced backyard, your pet will have plenty of space to play. I also have a 1 year old very friendly Pomeranian who loves to have play dates ❤️
About: Hi! I’m Margo — a lifelong animal lover who’s been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. I grew up with two poodles and two labradors, and I’ve learned how to care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently have a cat and even a donkey, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals — big, small, furry, or hooved! Friends and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets when they’re away. I’m responsible, patient, and love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for like my own. I’m a lifelong animal lover and part-time social worker who often works from home. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time, care, and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in their home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and make sure pets feel safe and loved. I take time to earn their trust with gentle attention, routine, and comfort.
“Lisa and John were great! It was a very last-minute booking and they were incredibly accommodating. I felt very comfortable from the jump leaving Lola with them. They helped her get adjusted and she came home absolutely wiped! I will definitely be booking again.”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
About: My wife and I grew up with dogs for pets and we had dogs for years when we were first married. We have plenty of experience and are familiar with what is required to care for dogs. Someone is always home. My wife stays home with the kids so we are available for boarding your hound(s)! We can be available for one night or long term. Our family is always around. We have 6 dog-loving kids. A big yard and lots of nearby sidewalk for long family walks. We have one sweet, little pup of our own. She is a Lhasa Apso who loves to have company; human or canine.
About: What sets us apart is the genuine care and experience we bring to every dog we welcome into our home. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and before having our daughter, we fostered dogs, which gave us experience with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs. We currently have a friendly 2-year-old lab mix, so we’re very familiar with maintaining routines, exercise needs, and positive reinforcement. One of our biggest strengths is working with anxious or shy dogs—we’re patient, attentive, and take the time to build trust at each dog’s pace so they feel safe and comfortable. We treat every dog like part of our family and strive to create a calm, loving environment where they can relax and be themselves. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday. Your dog will have consistent companionship throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods. During the day, dogs are free to relax, play, and interact with our friendly 2-year-old lab mix. We also incorporate daily walks and outdoor playtime (weather permitting), along with plenty of attention, affection, and structured routine. Because I’m home, I’m able to closely monitor each dog’s needs and adjust care to ensure they feel comfortable, engaged, and right at home. Then when my husband and daughter are not in work or school they will help care for your dogs and play with them. In our home, we strive to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog in our care. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise in a secure space. Inside, dogs are treated like part of the family—free to relax, play, and enjoy a calm, structured routine. We can accommodate crate training if your dog is used to it or needs a safe space while we’re briefly away from home. We pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, a quieter environment, or a consistent routine, so they feel secure and at home during their stay.

About: I am a huge animal lover! I currently have an 12 year old Goldendoodle named Stella. I have had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine ever being without one! I love taking Stella to dog parks, going for walks, or hanging out around town. I would love to do the same with any dog that I would be watching! Stella also loves to be around other dogs and has never been aggressive in any way. I would be happy to accommodate any special needs your fur baby may have! I do have my 3 year old son and 5 month old daughter in the home as well, so the pups will need to be kid friendly! We now live in the Eastgate area, so if you have been a previous client, the address has changed! I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am currently working from home 2 days a week and in office three days. I am completely free on weekends as well and most holidays. I have a fully fenced in yard and lots of fun toys! Stella loves to play with other dogs. She is 12, but still has her puppy spirit!

About: I have 3 dogs of my own who I love to take care of! I can feed, walk, bathe and most importantly give lots of love!! My schedule is super flexible, so I have lots of time in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m working part time this summer so I can spend real time with your pets and give them lots of love instead of rushing :) I have grown up around pets and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m super comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I like getting to know each pet’s personality!! whether they’re playful and energetic or more calm and cuddly. I’m patient, responsible, and I always try my hardest to follow instructions exactly how they’re given.
“Bethany has been so helpful in caring for our dog. She treats her well and clearly has a love for animals. She's responsive and kind and we plan to continue using her on a weekly basis for as long as she's offering her services.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats, and now I have a dog who’s truly part of my family. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for my neighbors whenever they go out of town, making sure their dogs are walked, fed, and, most importantly, loved while they’re away. Being around animals has always brought me so much joy, and I take pride in treating every pet like they’re my own, giving them the care, comfort, and attention they deserve. I will be nannying over the summer on some Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays until around 4 pm so on the days that I am nannying I will be free any time after 4. But on other days I will be free all day long. Whether it’s taking your dog for a walk, letting them out for a potty break, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I’d be happy to help keep them happy while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I treat them like part of my own family. I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to their usual routine, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, or just some extra snuggles. I know how important it is for pets to feel secure in their own space, so I always give them plenty of love and attention while keeping your home just the way you left it.
“I haven’t used Rover in probably 10 years. I was hesitant to go back to it because you never know who’s going to be taking care of your dogs. I just finished my first week having Andrea walk the dogs and I can’t begin to explain how highly I would recommend her. From the pictures and updates she’s sending, to going above and beyond making sure I know that she’s walking the dogs the full-time. I’m just hoping she doesn’t stop doing this anytime soon because she is amazing!”
“We have been working with Michelle for a couple of months. She is super reliable, always on time, and communicates super well. My dog Otto leaves a 5 paw review for her as well, saying she is super friendly attentive, and always gives him treats post walk. If you want someone to treat your pet like family would definitely recommend working with Michelle!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I currently pet sit for 6–7 different families, with dogs ranging from 8-week-old puppies to 14-year-old seniors. I also regularly help care for my sister’s dogs and have a German Shepherd of my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break from the University of Cincinnati, so I have a very flexible schedule. I also work a part-time remote job, which allows me to be home throughout the day and gives me plenty of availability for pet care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding, playtime, or overnight stays, I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine and make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and bedtime so pets feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, and I keep the home clean and tidy. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pets and their owners.

About: I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for over 20 years and just recently decided to stay home with my kids full time. Pet sitting has always been something I’ve done on the side for family and friends, but now that I have more time available, I’m very excited to be able to love and care for your fur babies just like they were my own! I am currently available for daily walks and 2 potty breaks per day, and of course PLAY TIME! I also offer drop in services if you do not feel your pet needs a walk or additional exercise. I am available for any and all of your pet care needs, and with 20 yrs of previous veterinary experience, I am also comfortable giving both oral medications and injectables for diabetic patients. I love being around all animals because they provide a great sense of calm and familiarity for me. I always treat a client’s pet just as I would my own and they will receive endless love & attention while in my care. I do work part time during the week and have two young boys at home- while we are a very active family, I can usually carve out time even on work days for drop in visits or walks.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. From dogs to turtles, I’ve had pets throughout my life, and I’ve always made sure to give them the best care possible. I’ve also gained experience through pet sitting for neighbors and family friends’ dogs and cats over the years. I’ve gladly taken on the responsibility of their care without any issues. When your animal is in my hands, they become my top priority. I understand the worry that comes with leaving your beloved pet with someone new. But when they’re with me, they’ll be treated like family. I currently work full-time in the afternoons and evenings, but I’d be happy to accommodate your pet during my mornings and days off. This includes morning walks, bathroom breaks, or feeding times, so they can stay on their natural schedule. When your pet is in my care, I ensure they are always fully leashed and secure whenever we leave the house, so there’s no chance of an easy escape. They will be closely supervised during potty breaks, and I’ll send you confirmation photos of how they’re doing. Any messes will be cleaned up immediately, so you won’t have to worry about a thing.
“My dog loves Wynn and Lauren. They are caring and flexible and I appreciate them very very much. It is no small thing to know that my dog is being well cared for on his walks. When in Lauren have helped me many times with short notice.”
“Our family, and especially Maverick and Goose appreciate your attention to weather conditions and everything else you consider for their well being when you take care of them. Thank you!”
About: I have two adorable caviler king charles spaniels prince who just turn 5 and Gypsy who is almost 2 ! We have one funny guy otis the pug who is about to be 4! We have a large about a 1acre of yard for the dogs to be out as much as they like and to be free off the leash ! I love when dogs cuddle and want to be loved and will love them all as much as my own. I am the person who wants to pet every dog! I will even let them sleep in the bed if they are allowed. My pups can be excited the first 5 minutes but after they meet your pup they calm down! They are just excited to have a new friend stay ! I love also the senior pups my favorite 😍 we cant wait to meet you and ur furr baby 🐕🐶 I work at home and have a 12 year old son who loves meeting new friends. He also will play with the pups and like to run and they chase him and play I have safe places they can stay with me in my home and a safe park. All dogs are welcome in my car.

About: I am a very passionate, attentive, and empathetic person when it comes to any and all animals! For many years I have taken sole care of both dogs and cats of all different breeds, and am well experienced in all general pet care to include special needs pets. All of the dogs I ever had as a kid were trained as puppies almost solely by myself and my brothers. My mom used to make me read books and do online research about the breed of dog we had, different training techniques, K9 first-aid, and so much more. Being as passionate as I am about animals, those studies were well retained, and while I don't have professional experience, the knowledge gained from doing it on my own with 9 different dogs over my lifetime have graced me with at the very least, an in depth knowledge of all different stages of dog ownership. This knowledge was also accentuated professionally as I worked alongside military police K9 handlers during my time in the Air Force. Not to worry though, I mix structure, routine, and discipline with plenty of tender loving care, and know how to tune my approach to dogs of all temperaments. In regards to puppies: I have experience potty training, leash training, crate training, and what I would call experienced but moderate obedience training skills. I know how to deal with things like food aggression, how to properly establish the "hierarchy" or "pack mentality" and other conditioning behaviors. As well as handling young puppies, I've even assisted a momma in giving birth to a new litter, and taking special care of a brand new litter of 7 pups! So my experience with all dogs truly does begin at birth and goes all the way to end of life care. For the old timers: The couch potatoes in our lives need just as much, and sometimes even more care than their energetic and young counterparts. I have experience with things like giving medication and shots, managing specialty diets, and a number of other age specific needs. I'm very patient and am willing to take the time to get to know your pet and what they need. Every animal has a different personality and needs attention in different ways, and I'm very attentive to that! I will always treat your pet as if they were my own, and will to the best of my ability make sure that your pet is well taken care of at all times. I'm a full-time nomad and side gigs are my primary source of income. Pet care IS my weekly routine. I'm available and more than happy to abide by the normal 9-5 schedule for daytime pet care, but I can also easily adjust to fit any alternate schedule; whether you need overnight pet care, or any other odd schedule constraints met, I am available. I have lived with my own dog in a variety of different conditions. From being on our own in both houses and apartments, to having a full house of dogs and cats. I am well versed in any additional responsibilities and special care based on living situations, and have no trouble go up and down a few flights of stairs for potty breaks/walks, etc.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and absolutely love being around them! From energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 💕🐕 I recently completed nursing school and currently have a very flexible schedule. I am available during weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I love incorporating walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets into my routine. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. I will always treat your pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine, providing a safe and loving environment, and paying close attention to their needs. Communication is important to me, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to help you feel connected while you’re away. 🫂🐾

About: I've had pets as long as I can remember. I have 2 Great Danes..a bully mix and two cats at the moment. My most recent job was at a local dog boarding/daycare facility. I also foster through Cincinnati Animal Care. I'm currently a stay at home mom with pretty much an open availability. I can make myself available morning..noon and night. Almost any day of the week I would be available as well. I provide your pet with lots of attention and pets if that's what they're into. Whether it's staying at home and relaxing...going for walks or tug of war with the rope in the back yard..I'll make sure they're happy!
About: I worked at a boarding pet care store for over 2 years in high school. Where I took care of dogs of all ages and sizes as well as working up front where I gained tons of knowledge about animals. I currently have not much to do since I’m on winter break for college and have no other major responsibilities or vacations. I also can always stay the night if needed. I make sure that any pet feels safe and comfortable with me as well as ensure that they get the proper care and love they need while I’m with them.

“Alycia took great care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay. She was very responsive, sent photos and updates, and made us feel comfortable while we were away. We appreciated the communication and would be happy to book with her again.”
“Tricia watched my 2 cats for a week and a half. She wasn't just a sitter, she LOVED on the kitties and the kitties loved on her and her 2 sweet kids as well! Her home is very clean, nice, very warm and homey feeling. She has all the accommodations needed to watch cats and dogs! She kept me posted with lots of pictures and updates which made it so much easier to relax and not worry while on vacation!”
“Lauren and Wynn were awesome with our 4 year old boxer! It sounds like he had a great time they sent a few pics of him playing. We would love to use them in the future! Thanks so much for watching Buck!”
“My pup seemed to have a great time and came home tired and happy! Stephanie sent us daily pictures, which meant a lot to us, and she was easily available for communication. We would definitely board with her again!”
“I asked Rebecca to watch my dog for the day when our travel schedules became hectic and I couldn’t leave him at home alone for such long stretches of time. Rebecca was so accommodating and responsive, even with such a last minute request. My dog absolutely loved his day with her family, getting all the love and attention he could handle. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”
“Katie and her family took such good care of our pup! The videos and photos they sent made me confident that I had picked the right person to care for our baby! Would 100% recommend to anyone!”
“They did a wonderful job with our Tessie. Would of loved to seen more photos, but I was also very aware of the weather back home and you can only do so many, dog resting in a bed because it's raining or overly hot outside. They didnt describe anything that would of been out of the norm for our dog or outside typical dog behavior. I'm glad my dog didn't do something out of the norm that would have caused damage to there home. Like a family watching your child. You don't want to hear the child got out of control and destroy a priceless possession you can't replace. Very respectful family with loving and caring kids. Would easily recommend them for watch your pet.”
“Erin and her family took wonderful care of our dog Maddy. It was such a relief knowing Maddy was loved on and taken care of while we were out of town. She is very quickly responsive and reached out to me with pictures and updates thru out the day. Erin also accommodated us last second as our previous arrangements fell thru and even got us in for a meet and greet the same day I reached out to her. Your dog will be loved on by 5 humans, walked, and entertained while staying in Erin’s home. It is tough for us to find sitters for our dog because she is dog selective. This was the perfect arrangement for our pup and we will definitely be having our dog stay with them again!”
“They were great with my puppy, Brady! I got daily updates with photos. Brady loved the daily play dates and seemed to have an awesome time! Would absolutely take him back to Tasha & Joseph’s.”
“Wonderful family! Ben, Kelle, and their kids were just amazing and welcomed Bella into their family while we were traveling. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her.”
“Paige, Stephen and family cared for our dog, Duncan, so well! He became part of their family while we were gone and I could tell that Duncan was thriving while with them. He especially loved playing with their kids which helped keep his sense of normalcy compared to our home! Would definitely recommend this family to anyone :)”
“I highly recommend Dion. He was very friendly and his dog was also nice to our dog. Dion was kind to send photos and showed my dog was doing well during his stay. I felt he was well cared for.”
“Megan and David are amazing! I was so nervous to leave my older girl with her high maintenance health care needs, but I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing she was in good hands. They have a ton of animal care experience and the sweetest dog who was so patient; my girl was able to fit right in with the family. They are quick to respond and gave me daily updates with pictures. I couldn't recommend them enough and hope they are available the next time my pup needs a home away from home.”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Kelti and Tanner are absolutely amazing! My dog had such a wonderful time playing with their two dogs! I was super nervous using Rover at first but Kelti really put my mind at ease. I know they treated Abbey like she was their own and I can’t wait to book with Kelti and Tanner again in the future. I highly recommend them - way better than boarding at a kennel! Abbey received love, attention, and plenty of play time at their house!”
“Our dogs did great here with Rachel! She took very good care of them and went above and beyond, doing simple things as brushing out our pup who was shedding a lot, all the way to helping out one of our dogs who had a little bit of reflux and getting her back to normal. Got pics every day and they looked like they had a lot of fun. Great sitter, and would definitely recommend!”
