“Very friendly and made us feel very comfortable leaving our pup for the first time. He wears a pet fit bit and we could see on our app that he had plenty of exercise. The pictures and videos sent showed he had plenty of fun as well.”
“They took amazing care of our dog, Abby! They sent multiple updates throughout and Abby seemed to really enjoy the family. Could not have been more pleased with their care of our dog!”
“We have a rescue dog who is nervous in new situations but Dee Dee was wonderful with her. She gave her a great atmosphere to feel calm and welcome, and then plenty of pets when our pup was ready. Dee Dee was communicative, cheerful, and sent us lots of photos, which we loved. We are definitely going to reach out to Dee Dee the next time we go out of town. She’s so delightful!”
“Caitlin was easy to communicate with, and her house is perfect for pet sitting, replete with a grassy backyard and dog door. Comfy, clean, welcoming environment. You can tell she really cares for the pets in her charge. Future repeat customer!”
“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”
“fantastic. care. we were apprehensive leaving our baby and Tina & James were amazing! Updates with pictures were sent with great little notes attached. We highly recommend. Thank you!”
“Tessa and her family were absolutely wonderful. They sent me updates consistently throughout my entire trip. They spoiled my pup, took him on walks, let him play in the pool, and overall treated him like he was their own. I can’t recommend them enough.”
“Cecilia was so wonderful with Daisy. The daily updates and pictures were great. It almost seemed like she was with her second family ? I would definitely recommend Cecilia and use her again!”
“This was our second time using Ying and it was fantastic! He has really bonded with our dog and made him very comfortable. Ying gives him lots of attention and exercise and the two of them have quickly become good friends. We are so happy to have found Ying!”
“This was Cashew's his first time without me and he's two! He's a blond and white 11 pound Pomeranian So it was kind of a big deal especially for me to leave him with a new person for 2 nights and three days. Teresa set up a play date for him one day which he loved . I found Cashew happy and calm when I returned. Teresa is very calm, very attentive and loving. Also she reliable and trustworthy. Cashew stayed at her place but Ill be giving her a key to my home in the future. She supplied him with plenty of play and walks. She will be my first choice when I need a sitter. Julie V.”
“Highly recommend Corynne and Matthew! They watched our 2 dogs while we were out of the country for 11 days. They did great with both of them, which are completely different in their needs: one a very energetic 2 year old heeler mix and the other a 16 year old lab mix. They administered meds for our senior also. Our dogs had such a great time, they didn’t want to leave. Will be booking again - thanks!”
“Dylan and his fam were great! Oakley came home happy and relaxed. We felt she was well cared for and we received frequent pics and updates on doggy activities.”
“Diane was so amazing and understanding. I would definitely bring Maggie back whenever I am flying out of Eugene :) Thank you for your understanding Diane! so glad we did the meet and greet.”
“My dog had a great time with Cameron and her dog Bo. I was updated daily on the fun they were having. She treated my dog like part of the family. We will definitely use Cameron in the future.”

About: I once had 4 cats in my house. I know how to care for them and make them comfortable as well as entertained. Cats are a special kind of pet and with my years of experience I’m beyond confident I can give them the environment needed to stay safe and healthy, and of course happy.
About: Hi! I’m Madeline, I’m 28 & a lifelong animal lover with a calm, caring nature and a knack for making pets feel safe and loved. With years of experience in customer-focused roles, I understand how important trust and communication are, especially when it comes to your furry family members. Whether it’s playtime, walks, snuggles, or just keeping their routine steady, I’m here to make sure your pets are happy and well-cared for while you’re away. You can count on me to treat your pet like one of my own — with lots of love, attention, and patience. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I’ll always keep you updated with how your pet is doing. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! Pet care is woven into my daily life — I care for my own cat and rabbit every single day, so things like feeding schedules, litter boxes, playtime, and grooming are second nature to me. I build my schedule around making sure my animals feel safe, seen, and loved — whether they’re mine or yours. Fitting your pet into my routine feels like second nature, not a task. My pets are indoor only. My cat does not get along with other cats or dogs so I keep her safe and separate. The way I would keep your pets safe is listening and communicating you and your pets needs. I’ve opted to not board pets because it would not work in my homes dynamic.
“I did enjoy Randi services. Based on her observation, I will definitely check with the vets regarding Audi eating grass. Overall, she is good in taking care of our dog and not only that she kept the dog place clean.”
About: I have had the joy of sharing life with a wide variety of dogs in my time. I have lived with cats, small dogs and big dogs. I tend to prefer the bigger dogs myself, because I love their cuddles. I have also cohabitated with cats, and enjoy their cuddles and purr vibrations. I have trained all of my dogs with the positive reinforcement method. I understand that dogs love to have boundaries made clear, so that they can feel safe. I do not raise my voice with dogs, and focus on reinforcing the positive choices that they make. I am experienced with giving medications to animals, even grumpy senior cats. I am patient with all animals, reliable and responsible for all pet owners. I value having a trustworthy petsitter for my own pets, and want to offer that to others in return. I am currently available anytime for pet care. I have some hobbies, but can easily schedule around them. With my own dogs, I am very active. We go on walks daily and often do road trips to the beach. I care for pets with patience and respect for the animals needs as well as the owners requests and preferences. I am very clean and organized, and will leave any space I am in clean.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and taken care of clients cats. I have administered medication to elder cats, responsible for cleaning the cat litter and playing with them. I have raised 3 kitties at 3 weeks old because the momma passed away. I bottle fed them and gave them round the clock care and they lived long, luxurious lives.
About: People can trust me as a cat sitter because I am dependable, gentle, and attentive to each cat’s needs. I make sure cats are fed on schedule, have clean water and litter boxes, and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I also give them plenty of attention, patience, and care. All cats have different personalities.
About: I’ve owned my own kitty since 2010 and previously her brother who was special needs. I also have fostered kittens and nursed them back to health we found on our property until a rescue took them in.
About: I have a doggo of my own and would love to meet yours as well!! Registered Nurse looking to walk dogs in my spare time. Thanks for trusting in me! Work a few days a week, and my schedule varies each week. I am very active and would love to walk and run your pet! I can accommodate and help with whatever your dog needs at that time, whether it’s just letting them run around your yard, playing with them, tiring them out on a long walk or run, providing companionship and snuggles, etc.. just let me know!
About: Although if asked, I’d say I’m a dog person. That hasn’t stopped me however from owning and caring for the kitties in our midsts. I’ve only owned kitties that could go outside so the litter box was not apart of my experience at home. I have, however, taken care of cats that live indoors only, and I’m very aware of the importance of a clean and tidy litter box.
“Jessica has proven herself again and again as a trusted partner and friend, to creature and human alike. She is an effective communicator and a steady hand that I trust implicitly. We have used her pet sitting many times and are so grateful to have her back whenever we have to be away from home.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dexter
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I've been lucky to have dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, that is 50+ years of wagging tails. I know how important consistency is for keeping dogs calm, especially when they're staying somewhere new. My goal is to make their time with me feel as close to "home" as possible. Whether your dog (aka family member) wants snuggles, a cozy nap spot, playtime with my dog, or a little quiet space to themselves, I follow their lead and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m currently in between jobs, which means I’m home full‑time and able to give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day/night. My home is relaxed, warm, and set up for dogs to feel comfortable from the moment they arrive. I keep things safe, clean, and low‑stress, and I follow each dog’s natural rhythm — whether that’s playtime, naps, snuggles, or simply hanging out nearby. I share my home with my young male mix‑breed dog (born 12/6/24), a poodle/wire‑haired terrier mix who’s neutered, well‑behaved, and absolutely loves meeting new dog friends. He’s gentle, social, and always happy to have a buddy around, but I also make sure every visiting dog has space and downtime whenever they want it.
“Joshua and Jennifer are very kind and were able to accommodate a last minute appointment with a late pick-up. Close to UO. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Denise was the best with our little yorkie while we were in town for a graduation. She took care of him during the day and he was calmer than usual and happy! Thank you again Denise!”
“Joel and Crystal are amazing! They're so accommodating for a busy schedule. My puppy, Juniper has the best time when she stays with them! Juniper receives the best care every stay. I also love the updates I get throughout the day. I highly recommend Joel and Crystal for caring for your dog!”
“Michelly was kind, welcoming, and flexible. Lavinia had a wonderful time with her and the other pups, and we will definitely be signing up with Michelly any other time we need a daycare date!”
“Valerie is so kind! So amazing! She was very attentive and sent photos throughout the day to keep me updated. As well as taking care of her just as well as I would if not better! I will definitely be using her again!”
“Claire was patient and kind with our younger rescue dog, Quince, who can get stressed in new environments. Our senior dog, Duncan, seemed to do great. We appreciated the pictures of their day and were happy they were comfortable enough to settle in for a snooze. Their home seemed warm and inviting with plenty of comfy spaces to cuddle up. Claire had some good insight for future visits, and we hope to be able to have our boys in her care in the near future.”
“I don't want to talk about how much my dogs like it at Paul's b/c then I'll have a harder time booking. I also don't want to talk about how good Paul is with the dogs and how tired my dogs are when they are done for the day. If he is ever booked up b/c of good reviews I'll be sad LOL. Thankyou for welcoming Hoot & Holler onto your farm Paul. See you next month”
“We had a last minute change in our typical dog care. We came across Tessa and she is absolutely wonderful. They have a great large fenced property and right away I knew my doggos would be in a good space. She is great about sending updates and pictures, which was comforting in knowing they are well taken care of. Picked them up today and they are exhausted, which tells me they enjoyed their time. Will use them again.”
“Cassie was a wonderful host for my pup! Mahogany got along with Tilly like an old friend, and Cassie sent me pictures, videos, and updates consistently throughout the day. Their house is basically across the street from one of Hog’s favorite dog parks and he got to spend a bunch of time there! He was happy and tired after a day full of adventure! Highly recommended!”
“Jennifer and Josh have done such a great job with my Rosie! Rosie is very timid at first, but Jennifer was so loving and comforting she warmed up to her right away. It’s nice for her to be around other small dogs and they have a great place to run around. I would highly recommend Jennifer and Josh- I can’t imagine a more caring atmosphere.”
“Mari and Steve provided a wonderful experience from beginning to end. They took extra care to make our dog and us feel at ease, communication was quick, and our dog left daycare happy and well loved!”
“Hannah is amazing! She made my clingy and anxious chihuahua feel comfortable and right at home. ? I’m very particular about who I leave him with and she is friendly and answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. I received photos and updates during his stay! So glad I found her! Thank you!”
About: Hi there! As a fellow pet parent and Rover user, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. I’m the proud mom of a 6 year old rescued German Shepherd and a 9 year old cat who even made an overseas move with me, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. I'm a teacher with a deep love for animals and nature. I spend much of my time outdoors, going on walks and hikes with my pup, and I’d be thrilled to have your pet(s) join in on the fun! Whether it’s outdoor adventures or cozy time at home, I’ll care for your pet(s) as if they were my own. This summer, I’ll have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to new clients. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet(s). I am working 8 am - 4:00 pm and have weekends and holidays off, which allows me the flexibility to take care of your pets' needs. Whether your pet enjoys snuggling on the couch or prefers to get some exercise, you can rest assured that they will receive plenty of attention, cuddles, and playtime! I am more than happy to take your dog for walks, hikes, to the dog park, or anywhere else you feel comfortable taking them. I'm excited to learn more about your furry friend(s)!
About: I’ve been caring for horses, dogs, cats, chickens and yes even cows my whole life and as my kids have become adults I’d love to offer some of my new found free time to your pets as well on temporary basis when needed for vacations, long days away or check in’s or walks when you’re gone overnight or for trips out of town. As a 42 yr old empty nester who can only walk and hike and rollerblade with my dog so much I’d love to use some of my available time to help others with their pets! I personally know how much I appreciate knowing my pet is cared for when I’m not home and would love to offer the same comfort on occasion in your home and possibility for occasional boarding at mine as well. As a Licensed Real Estate agent I am very experienced with the care and trust it takes to let someone in your home and as a loving dog owner I know how precious these furry friends are and how important their health and safety is to their humans.

About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rodents, and even reptiles. I am currently training to become a dog groomer and I’m taking classes to get my vet tech certification. I have the experience and knowledge necessary to ensure your pets are safe, comfortable and happy with me. I am currently working part time so I have the availability to care for your animals without anything impeding my ability to keep a close eye on them. My house is a large space with a very large fenced in back yard. I have two dogs that are easy to get along with. I have animal gates I can secure if you’d prefer your pets to be separated from my two small pups. I have 3 bedrooms so I can even dedicate a room to just your animal so they have a private and comfortable space.
“Cassandra was awesome! She arrived on time for each walk. Koda was ready to relax after his walks which is important for a husky:) I'll be asking Cassandra again when I'm not able to give Koda his daily walks.”
About: I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, lizards, guinea pigs, hamsters, a snake, and even a chinchilla throughout my life, so I’ve truly never known life without being surrounded by animals. I’m a huge animal lover, and caring for them has always come naturally to me, whether they’re my own or belong to family and friends. I have roughly 10+ years of non-professional experience and 3 years of professional experience caring for pets, including pet sitting and working with animals of different personalities and needs. A lot of the photos on my profile are actually with pets I’ve cared for, pet sat, or even strays I’ve come across and helped. I also love the outdoors and hiking, so if your pet enjoys being active or going on little adventures, I’m more than happy to bring them along in a safe and fun way. At the same time, my current pets are total couch potatoes who love to relax and lounge around, so I’m just as comfortable matching that calm, low energy vibe. Whether your pet is playful or prefers to take it easy, I’m attentive and focused on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and caring for them. I currently live with my roommate’s 2 year old cat, so I’m used to daily care and attention. I also will be helping care for a new dog starting later this year, which I’m really excited about. I’m flexible and able to plan my schedule around pet care needs, whether that’s daily visits, walks, or spending extended time with your pets. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets are well taken care of while you’re away. I currently live in an apartment and keep a clean, calm, and pet safe space. That being said, I’ll be moving into a townhome with more space at the end of August. No matter the space, I’m attentive, patient, and committed to creating a secure and loving environment for every pet I care for.
About: I’ve had and taken care of animals from dogs to cats to reptiles to rodents my whole life. Whatever you’ve got I’ll be happy to put your mind at ease and provide the proper care your animal needs while you’re away. My previous work experience is primarily in pediatric care for children with autism but I’m currently between jobs and have a completely open schedule until the beginning of 2026. Wherever and whenever you need me I will be there! My own pets currently are an American Bobtail cat who requires medication for urinary issues every day and a German Shepherd-Husky mix which naturally requires more exercise than the average dog. I’m very accustomed to “higher” maintenance animals and with more extensive routines and don’t mind putting in the extra labor of love for any animal. I have been the go-to pet sitter of my friends and family since middle school with a reputation for reliability and loving care. I have a large range of animal experience including pets that require more specialized and delicate care such as exotic, young, or senior pets. If I stay with your pet in your home you will return as if I was never there to a clean home and a happy pet.
About: I’ve always had dogs around since I was a little kid & I’ve yet to meet one I didn’t like! I have a lot of free time and have spent much time dropping in on friends’ and family’s animals during work-hours for playtime, walks, potty breaks, playdates with my pooch, etc. I am a self-employed musician with usually way too much free time while others have to be at work- help me fill my schedule with walks, potty breaks, and playtime while you work, and housesitting when you travel! :) My current dog is a Dane-Lab mix with a ton of personality who is very social and could be requested for play dates. Having said this I am not intimidated by large breeds with puppy energy, I’ve seen it all! And I know how important proper situational control and planning is in ensuring dogs are safe and comfortable.

About: I’m constantly around animals. I’m wanting to become a veterinarian technician once I get into collage. I was raised having animals. I don’t recall any animals not liking me. I’m a very genuine person. I am very caring when it comes to animals. I’m a huge animal lover also very active when it comes to walks. I’ll make sure ur animals are well cared for. And your house. I was raised a hard worker and very responsible. I promise I will not let you down if you hire me. I hope I can show you how much care I will give for ur animals and I won’t let you down! I am not working right now, so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am free every day. I am available anytime. I will make sure they have everything they need to survive with, food, water, toys, and treats if they need. I can put them in their kennel if need be, and make sure they are well taken care of with lots of love.
About: Safety is always my number one priority while pet sitting. I make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and cared for in a safe environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and owner guidelines to keep every pet healthy, comfortable, and protected at all times. Although I do work a part-time job, I try my best to fit pet sitting in my schedule because it’s what I love to do! Animals will always be well taken care of, I insure that your pets will be let out before I have to take off for work, making sure water is full and fresh. I will be back to love and care you’re pet in a timely manner! Although I do not offer boarding, I prefer watching animals in their owner’s home because I feel like it makes the animals more comfortable to be in a well-known environment. My biggest priority is making sure the owners have peace of mind while they are away and know that their animals are in a safe hands.
About: I got my first pet at 18, a kitten who was from a stray in the neighborhood. I still have that cat today she is 16 and a 1 year old rescued chihuahua mix. I’ve fostered over 30 dogs and a few kittens, volunteered at our local animal shelters and worked events trying to find pets loving homes. I love caring for animals and being a person animals trust. I am a self employed person so my schedule is very flexible, I take my own dog on daily walks and can fit things in easily. My animals are the center of my world and I am always wanting them to be safe, comfortable and loved. I will do the exact same for your babies within your household boundaries. But mine will always sleep in my bed! :)
About: Looking for more reviews? Check out Trusted House Sitters and search for my profile. I care for all living beings, but dogs are my go to when it comes to spending time and feeling at home in a world I choose. I've trained many breeds over the years and have heard various techniques. The older I've gotten the more formal the training I've received. All of which has been positive reinforcement training. I once went through a program that taught me how to train my own service animal. The techniques are very similar to the way I was during my early years when classes were not on my radar. My dog would simply go everywhere with me and learned how to behave in each setting without much effort at all. With the more formal training in recent years the fun part I find is desensitizing, shaping, training while playing, and having a great friend with me at all times. I do not claim to have had a ton of success reversing already spun habits. It's important to start pups young in many cases, though there are also many dogs that are easy going enough they can pick this up in no time. Whether you have a pet for the the home, all kinds, I will care for them as you do and I'll send you on your carefree way with full confidence. Boarding dogs at my house is limited to easy to manage temperaments and activity levels do to the fact our home is very small with hard wood and we have no fenced yard. My husband and I are both retired. I've recently lost my elder Irish Setter who spent most all his time with us. Now I have a Mini Poodle pup who's being trained to fill some pretty big shoes. So far it's smooth sailing! When going into others homes I simply follow their daily routines and instructions. My time is devoured to the animals. I rarely have things that would require me to shift focus. While at our house I make sure needs are met first, set the tone with rules of the house and have plenty of interactions with them through out the day. We take frequent walks and set up play time in the garage. I love the elders and yet can't pass up a puppy. I've not sat for cats in my home and would not feel comfortable doing so unless the owner knows something I don't know regarding their outings.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was a child. I’ve taken care of clients pet babies in their home. Feeding, cleaning cat litter, playing with them and administering medication. Making them feel loved while their parents are away. I also have had the opportunity to volunteer at a horse therapy program where I cleaned stables, fed the horses, washed them, brushed them and cleaned their hoofs. I also assisted the mentally and physically disabled individuals on the horses while they were doing their lessons. I am currently retired and have all the time in the world to care for your pet babies. I have a large home that would be comfy and cozy for them I have an adequate yard to take your pet Babies in. I have a bike trail to walk them in and an open area to play with them.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and love animals! I started house sitting dogs about 10 years ago in Oregon. Nova is a golden retriever and she is a pretty low key and very good with all dogs, cats and children. I have experience with both rescue dogs and anxiety ridden dogs. I love to be outdoors so your furry friend will get plenty of exercise at a place of your comfort! I am excited to care for your pet for you :) I currently work a part time job and have flexibility for most days and times of the week. I have a little girl that does most everything with me and understand if arrangements need to be made to accomodate your pet’s comfortability around children. Just let me know. :) I have a fully fenced yard and our sweet Nova (golden retriever) to keep your pet entertained and engaged. We have a pretty laid back style in the home with dogs allowed on couches and beds. They have an abundance of dog beds in a few rooms too if that is more your preference.
About: I’ve been caring for horses, dogs, cats, chickens and yes even cows my whole life and as my kids have become adults I’d love to offer some of my new found free time to your pets as well on temporary basis when needed for vacations, long days away or check in’s or walks when you’re gone overnight or for trips out of town. As a 42 yr old empty nester who can only walk and hike and rollerblade with my dog so much I’d love to use some of my available time to help others with their pets! I personally know how much I appreciate knowing my pet is cared for when I’m not home and would love to offer the same comfort on occasion in your home and possibility for occasional boarding at mine as well. As a Licensed Real Estate agent I am very experienced with the care and trust it takes to let someone in your home and as a loving dog owner I know how precious these furry friends are and how important their health and safety is to their humans.
About: I have trained my own dog to be a good citizen canine as well as a service animal. So I have experience teaching dogs to sit, stay, leave it lay down, as well as other commands. And hope to be able to use this training to help with your dog or puppy. Ever since I was young I've had a real affinity for animals and they're really drawn to my sweet and caring nature. I can be a bit shy at first but you won't regret giving me a chance to help your pets out. Right now my schedule's pretty open any day of the week as long as I can get to address have a driver license,I look forward to getting to know more dogs and spend time playing with them. I'm not currently working so I have as much time in the world to spend with your dog and to make sure it gets its daily exercise and other basic needs. I have unfenced yard , will always take precautions and have leash on a dog when taking it for potty breaks I do have a dog of my own he is a service dog for a living but I can always kennel his to keep your dog safe or put him in my bedroom.
“Jared took very good care of my Panini. She was very happy to have a walk during the middle of the day. Jared was friendly and responsive. Definitely will use him again for other services.”
About: I have a doggo of my own and would love to meet yours as well!! Registered Nurse looking to walk dogs in my spare time. Thanks for trusting in me! Work a few days a week, and my schedule varies each week. I am very active and would love to walk and run your pet! I can accommodate and help with whatever your dog needs at that time, whether it’s just letting them run around your yard, playing with them, tiring them out on a long walk or run, providing companionship and snuggles, etc.. just let me know!
About: It’s been rough - three rainbow bridge trips in short order. I need more time before I go down that road again, but in the meantime, I will happily love your dog (or cat, or parrot, or lizard, or...?) as if s/he were my own. I have a special fondness for seniors and special needs, but I’m game for anything. And, who doesn’t like puppies and an in-the-prime-of-lifer?? Ornery, shy, suspicious, or complicated personalities happily embraced. I am patient and sensitive to the fact that some animals need lots of closeness and reassurance while others need their space. I’m willing to work to earn their trust and set appropriate boundaries to earn yours. The pet and owner and I will work together to set the terms of our relationship, and I promise to be a most excellent guardian catering to each individual’s needs. My most consistent regular obligation is a daily trip to the barn to take care of my horse, but if needed, I have alternate coverage. I try to keep my presence low profile while I’m there. I appreciate the trust that comes with visiting in someone else’s home. When you come home, it’s nice for everyone if you can barely tell I was there.

“Very friendly and made us feel very comfortable leaving our pup for the first time. He wears a pet fit bit and we could see on our app that he had plenty of exercise. The pictures and videos sent showed he had plenty of fun as well.”
“They took amazing care of our dog, Abby! They sent multiple updates throughout and Abby seemed to really enjoy the family. Could not have been more pleased with their care of our dog!”
“Caitlin was easy to communicate with, and her house is perfect for pet sitting, replete with a grassy backyard and dog door. Comfy, clean, welcoming environment. You can tell she really cares for the pets in her charge. Future repeat customer!”
“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”
“fantastic. care. we were apprehensive leaving our baby and Tina & James were amazing! Updates with pictures were sent with great little notes attached. We highly recommend. Thank you!”
“Tessa and her family were absolutely wonderful. They sent me updates consistently throughout my entire trip. They spoiled my pup, took him on walks, let him play in the pool, and overall treated him like he was their own. I can’t recommend them enough.”
“We contacted Julie last minute and we are so happy we found our new dog sitter. We have smaller breed dogs and they felt calm and safe in Julie’s care. We are grateful for Julie’s care for our dogs while out of town. Great experience, would definitely recommend.”
“Cecilia was so wonderful with Daisy. The daily updates and pictures were great. It almost seemed like she was with her second family ? I would definitely recommend Cecilia and use her again!”
“This was our second time using Ying and it was fantastic! He has really bonded with our dog and made him very comfortable. Ying gives him lots of attention and exercise and the two of them have quickly become good friends. We are so happy to have found Ying!”
“This was Cashew's his first time without me and he's two! He's a blond and white 11 pound Pomeranian So it was kind of a big deal especially for me to leave him with a new person for 2 nights and three days. Teresa set up a play date for him one day which he loved . I found Cashew happy and calm when I returned. Teresa is very calm, very attentive and loving. Also she reliable and trustworthy. Cashew stayed at her place but Ill be giving her a key to my home in the future. She supplied him with plenty of play and walks. She will be my first choice when I need a sitter. Julie V.”
“Highly recommend Corynne and Matthew! They watched our 2 dogs while we were out of the country for 11 days. They did great with both of them, which are completely different in their needs: one a very energetic 2 year old heeler mix and the other a 16 year old lab mix. They administered meds for our senior also. Our dogs had such a great time, they didn’t want to leave. Will be booking again - thanks!”
“Dylan and his fam were great! Oakley came home happy and relaxed. We felt she was well cared for and we received frequent pics and updates on doggy activities.”
“Erin was at the door waiting for our dogs to escort the dogs into her home for drop off. She also brought the dogs to the door at pick up. The dogs came home, happy and healthy and glad to see us. ✅.”
“My dog had a great time with Cameron and her dog Bo. I was updated daily on the fun they were having. She treated my dog like part of the family. We will definitely use Cameron in the future.”
“Sabrina is a superstar!! She’s kind, thoughtful, flexible, and respectful! We received pictures everyday along with sweet notes of observations of our dog. Not only did she care for my little love, but she also reassured me with comforting messages and helping this new dog mom out. She is amazing!!”
