“Kristopher was truly a lifesaver. When my original sitter had to cancel unexpectedly, he stepped in without hesitation, and I honestly could not have asked for a better outcome. He was incredibly communicative throughout Izzy’s stay, sending regular updates and photos that gave me so much peace of mind. As a first-time dog mom, that level of care and transparency meant everything and made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. Izzy came home happy and completely worn out, which tells me she had the best time. I would absolutely recommend Kristopher and will definitely be booking with him again!!”
“There couldn't have been a better match for my old lab. Jean has the best outdoor/ indoor space, laid back vibe, and attention to a dog that wants to be lazy but comfy and with a human near by. I also love the updates and pics Jean sends to make me feel comfortable about Timber being in a good space. Can't wait for Timber to go back to his new "camp" and enjoy time with Jean.”
“This was Ziggys first time staying with Nadine and he was so excited and ran up the stairs to her front door. He must have remembered Nadine and her fur babies from our meet and greet. Ziggy seemed so happy after his weekend with Nadine. Her backyard is amazing. We’ll definitely book again!”
“This was our first time using Rover at all, and I was a little nervous leaving my dogs. Susie recognized that and distracted the dogs so I could slip out quickly. We received so many photos of their stay-lots of snuggles and trips to the park. It put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy myself on my trip a bit more, knowing they were in good hands. They came home happy and clean like they’d been given a bath. Would absolutely book with Susie again.”
“Perla had a great time with lots of play! Elizabeth has a nice big home with lots of room to run around both inside and out. Her dog Lilo and Perla got along really well. We'll definitely be a repeat customer.”
“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”
“Discovering Hannah and her husband was an absolute stroke of luck! When we visited Portland and needed a place to board our pup for the day, they came to our rescue. Their timely communication, regular picture updates, and the extra kindness of bathing our furry friend made us feel at ease. Our pup had an incredible time and was clearly worn out by the end of the day, sleeping soundly through the night. We're incredibly grateful for Hannah and her husband's exceptional care and recommend them wholeheartedly.”
“Nancy is so wonderful - a safe and loving temporary home for our very special little guy. We not only felt comfortable knowing Nancy was giving Teddy the best care, but also that they were probably both enjoying each others company while we were away. Teddy came home in one piece and was his same normal, happy self. Thank you so much for opening your home to Teddy, Nancy - we hope for more visits soon!”
“Amanda is amazing. She sent me several pictures of Lilly. When Lil was being picky about eating she even made her sone food. I have used Amanda in the past and already have another trip planned for June. I would AND HAVE recommended Amanda for pet sitting. Thank you Amanda, Jamie and your Lil kiddo for taking excellent care of my Lilly”
“Melodie did a great job with our pug! She sent lots of pictures. She has a really nice set up especially for small dogs, with lots of comfy beds and toys and a nice yard. Really glad we found her!”
“Jamie and Nicole took very good care of our dog and kept us posted with many happy photos. Our dog seemed to miss Jamie and Nicole the first night we took him home. We highly recommend them!”
“I could not have asked for a better family to watch my dog! Samantha and Brian were so kind and accommodating with my older dog! My dog had some issues initially acclimating to the new environment and they went above and beyond to make him feel at home. To the extent that Brian slept in the living room with him, where my dog felt most comfortable. Their children and their pup were wonderful with him as well! The family even accommodated me picking my dog up a night early since our holiday plans changed. This family really was a blessing when we needed to leave our dog for the holidays! Thank you again!!”
“Linda was great with my dog and was very communicative. She went above and beyond to make my dog’s stay more comfortable. I would book with her again for any future dog sitting services.”
“Hanlan was absolutely wonderful!! This was my first time needing a sitter, and I couldn’t have been happier. My two babies had such a fun time. Hanlan was extremely flexible, and was great at communicating. Definitely will be using her again when the next time comes.”
“Mara was absolutely incredible and treated my dog like her family! I felt so comfortable leaving her for the first time. Mara even sent my dog home with the toy she loved from her house. Thank you, Mara! ❤️”
“Noemi was very proactive and communicative with me about Elroy over the days she was with her! We got lots of photos and felt like Elroy was well cared for 💖 Thank you Noemi!”
“Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊”
“Caroline is awesome, she took amazing care of my dog and went above and beyond for him. I would definitely book with Caroline again! My dog loved it at her place, she sent picture updates while we were out of town. Gave us so much peace of mind and was so nice to have someone my dog has a good time and trusts while we were gone. Thank you again!”

“Due to no fault of his own, we learned through this experience that apparently my kitties would rather bond with females. Yet, Amir pulled through, going far and beyond to find that bond. He, on his own, bought toys and treats, trying to coax them out of their shells. He searched our house through and through trying to find our one kitty, who insisted on hiding the entire time he was in our home. If, and when, you are in a situation where you have to leave your animals in the hands of another - for us, this meant traveling of state and really needing someone we could trust to be our best replacements - Amir is your guy! If, and when, we are in need again, we will be calling him”
“Absolutely amazing! Bliss was an amazing communicator, gave great updates, and took really great care of my kitty! She really went out of her way to care for him! My cat is very shy and is very anxious around new people but he LOVED her and warmed up to her the second she walked in. He has never done this with anyone, it’s was so cute and sweet and im glad he found another friend to trust! Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Shianne is great! She dropped in on our kitty a few times this past weekend and gave us little updates on how she was doing along with photos. Also brought a package in for us. Thank you Shianne!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Summer checking in and visiting my young and shy kitty Casper! She was always on time or early, and her communication was and is excellent. She sent updates with pictures and videos, and I had total peace of mind knowing Casper was in good hands while I was away. She is so wonderful, she brought little gifts and treats for Casper! I trust and recommend Summer, and I would definitely book her again in the future! 🫶🏼”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, having cats growing up and later volunteering with dogs at rescue orgs. My time as a training class assistant for Puppy Manners and New Dog Basics at the San Francisco SPCA gave me valuable skills in positive reinforcement training, socialization, and handling dogs of all temperaments. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience with horses, having owned and leased several. I’m comfortable with feeding, turnout, mucking stalls, brushing, and general equine care, making me a well-rounded caregiver for multi-pet households. What sets me apart is my ability to care for pets at all life stages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing extra patience and comfort. Whether it’s structured walks, reinforcing good manners, or providing a calm and loving presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. With a deep understanding of pet behavior across species and a passion for ensuring their happiness and well-being, I go beyond basic care to provide engaging, enriching, and compassionate pet companionship. After our Husky mix’s TPLO surgery in Fall 2024, I’ve decided to make pet care my main focus. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and this shift allows me to dedicate my time and energy to providing top-quality care for pets in my community. With a flexible schedule, I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and customized care based on each pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, feeding and playtime, or extra TLC for pets recovering from surgery, I tailor my services to fit both routine and special care requirements. My experience with dogs, cats, and even horses means I’m comfortable handling a variety of schedules—from structured training sessions to free-spirited outdoor adventures. No matter the time of day, I ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my clients’ homes. At my home, we have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and spacious area for dogs to play and explore. Your pup will also have built-in companionship with our two friendly dogs, ensuring plenty of socialization and fun. For exercise and enrichment, we have scenic trails nearby, perfect for peaceful walks in the woods—giving dogs a chance to sniff, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s unique routine and environment, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Whether it’s reinforcing training, maintaining feeding schedules, or ensuring a calm presence while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. No matter the setting, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and enriching experience for pets—so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands.
“Erin is so good to my fur baby! When I came home, Marigold was happy and playful! Erin really pays attention to your pets needs and wants. I really feel so at ease knowing my cat is in her hands. She send cute pics and full updates everyday ❤️Above and beyond 5 stars!”
“Thank you Emily for taking care of our little rascals this week. Thank you for going out of your way to Google plant toxicity when our kittens decided to eat the succulents. And for going back for an extra check in when they played hide and seek. Your check-ins made is feel reassured while we were away.”
“Sarah did an amazing job watching our cats! She took great care of them and made sure our older one got her medications. Sarah was professional, timely and paid attention to all the little details. Thank you 💕”
“Carolyn is very attentive to my pet and has done a great job with drop ins, especially since my pet was 2 days list op from being neutered and not feeling his best self. I appreciate how caring she is and attentive to his needs.”
“Matthew went above and beyond!! Very very kind person. Very professional. Left the house nice and took care of our kitties well and he even left the coolest gift and note at the end of it. Best Catsitter we’ve had and we’ve had. Highly recommend!!”
“Rachel was great! Rachel was really kind and attentive, and sent me very cute cat photos often. I didn't worry about my cats even one time while I was gone for 10 days. Highly recommend!”
“Karly was absolutely wonderful!! My love and I were a bit nervous leaving our cat with someone new for the first time but Karly made sure that our girl was loved and cared for during our long week trip. We highly recommended Karly for all pet care needs. We are so relieved to have found a great neighbor that will help take care of our girl while we are away. Plus, she has a new best friend! Thank you for being the best, Karly!!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats around. I got my first cat at age 8 and he was with me till I was 22. I understand that not all cats like to be loved on and want their space. I have helped administer medication and take care of cat and all animals since childhood. If you need special care instructions I can help and follow them to a T. I now work in the medical field and so I’m comfortable with medication administration of any kind, that being oral, topical, or injectable.

“Our puppy had the best day with Kristopher. He was sensitive to our puppy’s needs, and eased her into meeting his crew when she was nervous on arrival. She seems to have had the best day, and we are so appreciative of his expertise with puppies.”
“This is My First experience with Rover and I am so happy I choose Nicole and Colten! They took great care of my 4 month old dachshund puppy. He came home happy and fed and sleepy everyday! I am very impressed. He is even excited when he sees them. Highly recommend☺️”
“Susie was wonderful. We chatted for a bit when dropping Dexter off. He spent the day hanging out, watching TV, and being loved. We will be sending Dexter to Susie’s again for Thanksgiving.”

“When Dexter developed a medical condition while I was away, Maggie handled it beautifully, giving Dexter the care he needed and keeping me apprised of the situation even though I had limited cell coverage for a while. Thank you Maggie!”
“Bridgitte is always great with our little rescue dog. We always get pictures of them out taking walks, and she takes our dog out to public places like restaurants which is good for her socialization. Bridgitte is super friendly and personable, and couldn't be easier to work with.”
“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”

“Couldn’t have been happier with Tommy and the care he provided for Juniper. He’s very experienced and it shows. He sent pictures of junipers stay and other updates. Will definitely be booking more stays with Tommy.”
“Hi, We just had our sweet girl, Annie, stay with Allison for several hours. My husband found her cleaned up, seemingly secure, contented and nicely tired (I think the dogs will be good friends). We’d love to connect again and will let Rover know soon. Thank you!!!”
“Sequoia took great care of my 1 year old Great Pyrenees puppy, providing good communication. My pup came home happy and tired from playing with her canine pals. Will book again!”
About: My husband and I have taken care of animals of all sizes and ages. Each pet has its unique lovable qualities. We wish we could have more full time but are doing this instead! We work from home so we will always be home with your pet! Our dog Lilo and cat Jack will also keep your pets company. We have a fully fenced front and back yard. We have an easygoing 3 year old dog who is eager to make friends and a cat that enjoys playing with other pets (on his terms)
“Jaimo (Jennifer) was awesome! After Daisy first day of daycare, Daisy was so excited to jump in the car in the morning knowing she'll be spending another day with Jaimo & co. It was like her second home. Once Jaimo's door was open, Daisy ran in without looking back. Jaimo took great care of Daisy, gave her meds as instructed, and always updated us throughout the day. We will definitely book Jaimo again. :) Thank you!!”
About: Everyone needs an aunt nearby to check on their dog or care for their dog when you're away. I will spoil your pup with love and attention like I do with my German Shorthair Pointer! I work from home and have the flexibility to take your pup for a walk or stop by for a quick belly rub and potty break. And, of course, a little playtime! I love all breeds and sizes and respect each dog’s individual personality and needs. I can bring my friendly dog, Oscar, along for some play and socializing or come solo to give all my attention to yours! My goal is to help you worry less about your dog while your away from home to give your dog what they need. I work full time from home. My 1/3 acre lot is wonderful for active dogs like our GSP Oscar. Pups who prefer to lounge and snuggle have a spot in my office on the bed next to my desk. Oscar loves dogs of all sizes and so do I! Whether you need daycare or someone to love your pup while you’re away overnight, my lifestyle and home is ideal! I have a 1/3 acre fully fenced yard with lots of room to run! I allow the dogs on the couch and the bed in my office. Oscar is fully vaccinated and takes monthly Simparica. I regularly pick up poop in the yard. My neighborhood is quiet and safe. I am skilled at walking two big dogs at the same time and often do during my lunch break.
“We are new to the area and are so thankful to have found Julie! She sent pics of our baby throughout his stay and kept us updated with how he was doing. When we picked George up, we could tell he had such a great time! We will definitely be booking Julie again. We felt that George was safe and cared for with Julie. ❤️”
“Bisghetti loves Allen's daycare. We moved to CA and we are so sad he had his final daycare stay with Allen. It was a great experience and our little gremlin always had the best time. Would definitely recommend!”

“Hire Frank! They are awesome. Kind and responsible. I felt very safe with having them walk my malamute who is sweet but can be a handful sometimes. Definitely recommend.”
“Amir did an amazing job taking care of our dog Yoshi! I knew right away from the meet and greet that he was going to be a great fit. He has a very calm energy and it was the perfect vibe for our Shiba. he was very communicative throughout the time we were out of town which put us at ease. 10/10 I would have Amir take care Yoshi again.”
“Stephanie was fantastic. She went above and beyond. She took great care of my dogs. And she did the full walks in the rainstorms. I would definitely recommend and hire her again.”
About: I love every pet I've ever met, from my childhood hamsters to my three silly cats - and I already know I love yours! I've had my own kitties for 6 years, and I've been taking care of others' cats, dogs, and small animals for even longer, from playful puppies to grumpy feline queens of the house. I can give most kinds of oral and topical medications comfortably if your pet needs any, and I have a decent amount of behavioral experience with anxious pets. I'm also no stranger to incontinence issues, and am more than happy to scrub any carpet. Bring on the enzyme cleaner! I'm in a transitional period right now, so I am happy to spend as much time with your pet as needed to keep their regular routine. As the owner of more than one anxious cat, I know just how important it is to keep your pet's environment as close to normal as possible while you're gone. I'm more than happy to work with you to make your house as close to routine as possible, from feeding times, play styles, or even someone to pounce on at 3am!
“Shianne is an exceptional dog walker! She's incredibly dependable, flexible, and has fantastic communication. She's also wonderfully sweet with our two corgis, and always makes sure they get a great workout. Our Lulu, who is obsessed with greeting people on her walks, especially loves her time with Shianne. She's my go-to person for our pups!”
About: I have had dogs since I was 16. Cats since I was 20. I have also owned various other animals, including livestock. My schooling helped me learn general animal care and I have had the same dog trainer for 20 years. Our pets have regular vet care. I pet sit for friends and family often, both at their homes and in our own home. Just informational, I do live with males, including teens, who have attended dog training classes and help when I need to step out if the house. I also have a very large yard for lots of running and exercise. I work fill time, but remote. I can choose to be from home or in office so am available to watch pets at home all day, when needed. We have a large fully fenced yard. We do have chickens, but they are gated in their own area. I have a pet gate to keep dogs from going downstairs unattended and a door as backup. I provide a pet water fountain for constant fresh and flowing hydration. Pets get regular treats and training refreshers to keep their minds sharp and engaged. My house is inundated with both cat and dog toys for constant entertainment.
“Emily has been a lifesaver in walking our very strong and energetic pointer puppy. Sammie is excited to see her arrive each time. Emily has good communication and is reliable. I can recommend her without hesitation.”
About: Hi! I'm Nate, and if you've got a dog who needs a walk, a cat who needs a buddy, or a pup who just wants a solid hang — you've found the right human. I didn't just grow up around animals — I grew up with them. We're talking dogs, cats, birds, and full-on farm animals. At any given point in my childhood, our place was basically a petting zoo with a roof. I've hand-fed, cleaned up after, played with, and genuinely loved more species than most people have on their bucket list. These days I'm a proud dog owner myself, and I've also fostered for multiple rescues and organizations — including the Puerto Rico Dog Fund and Many Miles from Home Animal Shelter — so I know firsthand what it means to trust someone with your fur baby. What does all of that experience mean for your pup? It means I'm calm in chaos, patient with personalities, and I actually enjoy watching animals just... be themselves. Whether your dog is a zoomies-at-6am type or a "I will sniff this one blade of grass for 45 seconds" type — I'm here for all of it. My goal is simple: to be the person your dog loses their mind over when they hear my car pull up. Walks, hangouts, check-ins — whatever your pet needs, I bring the energy, the patience, and the genuine love of animals to back it up. Your furry friend won't just be in good hands. They'll be having the time of their life. 🐕 I work from home, so your pet gets real quality time — not just a quick pop-in between meetings! I'm also an early riser, so mornings mean walks, fresh air, and getting those zoomies out before most people even hit snooze. Whether I'm at your place or mine, I follow your rules — feeding schedules, routines, preferred spots on the couch, all of it. You know your pet best and I'm here to keep things consistent and comfortable for them. If your pet stays with me, they'll have a fully fenced backyard to roam and my 4-year-old smaller German Shepherd to show them the ropes — she's basically the ultimate icebreaker.
About: I worked at a vet clinic for 3.5 years but due to life changes I now work at a pet store and petsit to continue to work with animals while I work towards my goal of working in vet med again. I’m reliable with my own transportation and am very knowledgeable in proper pet care. I am communicative, compassionate, and attentive to animals and their needs. I have been my own friends’ and family’s pet sitter for the past 5 years and I treat every animal as if they were my own while in my care. My whole life revolves around animals; I have 5 cats of my own and have fostered over 20 animals ranging from cats of all ages, dogs, and guinea pigs. I also work directly with animals at my job and am looking to continue that path. I have multiple rooms in my home to separate the animals in my care if needed, I have access to professional services if an emergency were to arise while also having knowledge of what to look for in with different medical conditions that can be present in animals. I have a good understanding of animal behavior and I understand their needs.
“Nadine was super responsive and flexible when I needed last minute help with walking my dog. Nadine was great at communicating before and during the walk if there were any questions and being patient with my stubborn boy. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! My mother was a dog breeder, meaning I have experience with puppies! I can’t remember a time when we didn’t have a dog in the house growing up, wasn’t till recently that I haven’t had a pet in the home. I’m a single mom to an animal loving 3 year old, who would be my little helper. I currently work in the medical field meaning I’m comfortable administering all kind of medications, whether that be topical, oral, or injectable medications. I have done pet sitting in the past, I have taken care of many kinds of animals, dogs, cats, horses, livestock, you name it I’ve probably taken care of it! I currently work full time, but I am home on evening and weekends, so I’m home starting Friday night to Sunday night to take your pup out as often as possible. During the week I am gone typically 12-14 hours a day, but if your pup is use to that I can make it work to let them out in the morning and then rush back to let them out once I’m home. I live in a duplex with a small fence in area that I can do quick potty breaks and then live close to walking trails for longer outside times. I have a 3 year old daughter who loves to play with animals. I also love close to parks that I can take dogs to if owner is comfortable with me transporting them. I also live close to my sister who has an active dog who loves friends to play with so that is an option if you have a high energy dog that likes friends.
About: I offer more than just pet sitting—I provide loving, attentive care that ensures your pets feel safe, comfortable, and nurtured while you're away. With hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. Whether it's gentle senior care, administering medications, or helping puppies through basic training and housebreaking, I bring patience, consistency, and affection to every interaction. I treat every pet like family, keeping their routines, comfort, and happiness at the heart of what I do. You can count on me to keep you updated and your pet well-loved until you return. As a college student returning home for summer, pet care will be part of my daily routine through feeding, walking, grooming, and spending quality time with your pet(s). Caring for your pets in your home is a responsibility I take seriously. I tailor my approach depending on the type of service you book, always prioritizing safety, comfort, and trust. Every pet is unique, so I customize my care to meet their needs and your preferences. My goal is for you to feel confident—and for your pet to feel happy and safe—every time I visit.
“Matthew was curious and asking all the right questions to get to know our dogs. And was courteous and polite with my 83 year old mother who was dog sitting but not walking two large dogs.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life but have taken care of all kinds of animals from chinchillas to cats and lizards. I am here to help with any and all of your pets needs! I will make sure your animals are exercised and loved! (Let me know if your dog needs a running buddy!) I currently work a Part-time job during the day so I have plenty of time to make sure your pet gets their meals, engagement, and exercise in for the day! I can also be flexible with what works with your schedule. My priority is to take care of your animal and meet their needs. If overnight care is requested I always ensure that the client’s space is respected and used only for purposes of the job.
“This is the second time Mara has helped me out with taking my pup on a walk while I’m at work. She is so great with my girl and sends the cutest pics and videos of their adventures. It’s wonderful having peace of mind that your furry child is well taken care of while you’re gone! She’s the best!”
“Thank you for taking care of our dogs! We have been looking for someone we can rely on in the coming weeks to help walk our dogs and feel so thankful to have found that someone in you!”

“Kristopher was truly a lifesaver. When my original sitter had to cancel unexpectedly, he stepped in without hesitation, and I honestly could not have asked for a better outcome. He was incredibly communicative throughout Izzy’s stay, sending regular updates and photos that gave me so much peace of mind. As a first-time dog mom, that level of care and transparency meant everything and made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. Izzy came home happy and completely worn out, which tells me she had the best time. I would absolutely recommend Kristopher and will definitely be booking with him again!!”
“There couldn't have been a better match for my old lab. Jean has the best outdoor/ indoor space, laid back vibe, and attention to a dog that wants to be lazy but comfy and with a human near by. I also love the updates and pics Jean sends to make me feel comfortable about Timber being in a good space. Can't wait for Timber to go back to his new "camp" and enjoy time with Jean.”
“Perla had a great time with lots of play! Elizabeth has a nice big home with lots of room to run around both inside and out. Her dog Lilo and Perla got along really well. We'll definitely be a repeat customer.”
“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”
“Discovering Hannah and her husband was an absolute stroke of luck! When we visited Portland and needed a place to board our pup for the day, they came to our rescue. Their timely communication, regular picture updates, and the extra kindness of bathing our furry friend made us feel at ease. Our pup had an incredible time and was clearly worn out by the end of the day, sleeping soundly through the night. We're incredibly grateful for Hannah and her husband's exceptional care and recommend them wholeheartedly.”
“Amanda is amazing. She sent me several pictures of Lilly. When Lil was being picky about eating she even made her sone food. I have used Amanda in the past and already have another trip planned for June. I would AND HAVE recommended Amanda for pet sitting. Thank you Amanda, Jamie and your Lil kiddo for taking excellent care of my Lilly”
“Mara was absolutely incredible and treated my dog like her family! I felt so comfortable leaving her for the first time. Mara even sent my dog home with the toy she loved from her house. Thank you, Mara! ❤️”
“Caroline is awesome, she took amazing care of my dog and went above and beyond for him. I would definitely book with Caroline again! My dog loved it at her place, she sent picture updates while we were out of town. Gave us so much peace of mind and was so nice to have someone my dog has a good time and trusts while we were gone. Thank you again!”
“Veronica was great with our two dogs. She has a calming manner and our nervous border collie when away from home appeared totally at ease in the sweet photos that she sent us. And I’m sure our husky enjoyed playing with her huskies. They all made a good pack. 😊”
“Nyx stayed with Nicole and Colton in the Fall (I'm leaving this review a bit late!). They sent photos during the trip of her playing with other dogs which was highly appreciated. I would feel comfortable boarding her here again!”
“Liz and her family were fantastic with our Goldendoodle! Communication was great and we felt at ease our dog was in excellent care. We appreciated the attentive touches like an impromptu food pickup (due to miscalculation on our end during his 2 week stay), early morning walks on 85 degree days and some tasty treats. Highly recommend booking!”
“Kristopher and his partner are so nice and were very good to my dog! You can tell that they genuinely care about each pet they watch and will 100% rebook them in the future.”
“Bonnie is the best! Our Shiba loves going there. We always feel and know that we areeaving him in the best hands! She walks and jas environment that he enjoys! He is ways excited when he sees her! We would 100% recommend her!”
“Dominique was so wonderful, sweet, and loving with our pup. She was very communicative, prompt, and sent us lots of videos and pictures. They already had toys/beds/leashes/bowls at their house so we didn’t need to pack much for our pup. It truly seemed like she cared for Ava as if she were their own. I cannot recommend them enough and we will definitely be reaching out in the future to request more pup sitting!”
“My dog Sage had a great time at Bonnie's house over the weekend - she looked relaxed and fit right in! Bonnie is quick to respond and her house is gorgeous! A perfect getaway for Sagey :) We'll use her again in the future!”
“Jennifer & Eric and the boys were great company for Oliver. He came home tired and that's a good sign. We appreciated the option for sitter-pick up and thank you for taking good care of our boy.”
“Rocky had a wonderful time and was well-loved. Taken in by Ludo and Indiana Bones like he was one of the pack. Great home with lots of space to run and spots to cuddle. Highly recommend!”
“Sunny’s stay with Charisse was wonderful! She goes over & above to accommodate every dog & you can tell she & her family love to have them around. Sunny already misses her & her new puppy friends. Will definitely use Charisse again.”
