“This was by far our best pet sitting experience! Our two miniature schnauzers are anxious, but we could tell they were very loved and well taken care of during our five days away. They seemed very sad to leave their new friends and slept a whole day after we got back! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of them and giving them a home away from home!!”
“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!”
“We are so grateful to Amy & Rob for taking such wonderful care of our dog! We felt that they listened to our care instructions and concerns and felt confident throughout our pup's stay. Amy & Rob were attentive, kind, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay - and provided photos of our dog's meds being administered which we appreciated so much. Our dog came back happy and well-cared for, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“Journey is the best! I had a flight delay and she was so flexible with adjusting the pick-up time for my pups, which was a huge stress relief! I always know my dogs are being well take-care of when Journey has them.”
“Jacqueline took great care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. She gave us lots of updates and sent frequent pictures so we knew our buddy was doing well. When we picked him up, he seemed pooped, so we know he got lots of attention and exercise. We would 100% have our fur baby stay with Jacqueline again!”
“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”
“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”
“Our pups did well with Claire on their first stay! Claire was very communicative and sent photos too. She was very patient and understanding of letting our girls adjust to a new environment. Claire is very knowledgeable and gave us a few helpful recommendations as well.”
“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!”
“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”
“Cecilia and family took great care of my babe over a long weekend while I was out of town. She sent pictures and updates ensuring me she was having a wonderful time sunbathing and getting lots of cuddles. She has a back yard and took Helena outdoors to keep her fit and healthy. Cecilia is responsive and allowed me to be flexible given I was flying. I would recommend Cecilia for your pup's boarding anytime!”
“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.”
“I highly recommend Shay, she took such great care of my adolescent puppy! She has a very nice set up in her home to accommodate pets. She is very calm and gentle with animals and genuinely cares about their happiness!”
“Julie was so awesome! She sent updates with pics throughout each day which was sooooo very relieving for me. I could tell that my dog was being well cared for and being taken on many adventures :) He seemed to enjoy his time with Julie and I would definitely recommend her and/or ask her to board my doggie again.”
“We recently adopted our dog, who has been through a lot and were worried about leaving him for the first time, but the Armstrongs immediately made us feel comfortable, and that our dog would be left with a loving family. Our pup has some unique behaviors (liking to sit alone, enjoying time outside even if it is raining) and they were more than willing to allow him to be himself, without us having to ask. They also sent so many nice updates that made it easy for my partner and I to enjoy our vacation. Also, when our dog was having trouble eating his meals they kindly found a solution after checking with us to make sure he got food. Looking forward to having our dog stay with the Armstrongs again soon!”
“Reya was so happy with Sabrina and Derrick over a long weekend. Updates were sent daily and the pictures of her playing were amazing. I felt incredibly lucky to have Reya stay at Sabrina and Derrick’s and will definitely book again!”
“Caitlin was great! Very accommodating to set up a meet and greet and was able to watch our dog for 2 nights, with flexibility with drop off and pickup times. Sent plenty of photos and kept us updated on how our pup was doing.”
“I had a great experience with Brittany! Very sweet, always communicated and sent me pictures of my fur babies. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to others!”
“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”

About: I’ve had cats my entire life! I love to care for them. My grandmother was a vet so I have decent knowledge in care :) I have a completely open schedule!! I have a lot of chronic pain so I’m not currently working a normal part time job. Due to my health, my availability may be closed for a couple days at a time, but I should be mostly open! I love my own three babies and would love to care for yours as well :) I don’t believe I would be able to bring your baby to my home, but I can always come to yours! I won’t bring my babies to stress anyone out, but they all might smell each other. I’m very gentle with disabled pets, as one of mine is deaf and has some back issues. I will be very patient and understanding of your fur ball’s needs! If you are going away for multiple days at a time, I can stop by as many times as needed to clean litter box(es) and food dish(es). I will also make sure your kitty has fresh/clean water, especially with the warmer months!!
“I'm a pet sitter myself so I can tell when someone cares about pets and takes good care of them. Amy was amazing with our babies. She always stayed in communication, sent many pictures, and made sure our babies had all their medications and food on time. She's a very sweet person and I will definitely be choosing her again in the future.”
“Caralisa did a great job with my senior kitties while we were away, which included giving meds and keeping up with our Litter Robot! She should get a 10/10 for responsiveness and communication, and went out of her way to get to our meet-and-greet after she was traveling all day. Would definitely recommend for your pets.”
“Anabelle took a good care of Bear (male cat) over the last two weeks through her daily visits. She made sure Bear got everything he needed. I loved getting Ana's daily updates and photos of Bear—it really gave me peace of mind. Thank you, Ana. I appreciate you.”
“Justine was great! She checked in on our two cats once a day while we were on vacation. Upon arriving home our house was tidy and our cats were happy! They are shy cats and haven’t liked previous pet sitters but they really liked Justine, which gave us peace of mind while away.”
About: We have a cat of our own! As well as a dog that gets along great with our cat. If needed we are able to separate them. Would happily house your cat or come take care/check on them.
“We loved Ada. She was responsive, communicative, and managed to bond with our sometimes shy cat within a few days. We will definitely be working with her again.”
“This was my first time ever using the Rover app and getting a pet sitter for my 3 cats. I was very nervous about leaving the cats at home during our 4 day trip since it would’ve been their first time being alone for a long period of time. However, Kristine was very good with the cats and very reassuring! She followed the instructions I had left, made sure the cats had what they needed, played with them and snuggled them! Of course, she sent photos of the cats during her daily visits and a detailed description of what was done that day. Which was amazing for easing my anxiety about leaving my pets at home. I definitely recommend Kristine for watching your fur babies and I will totally reach out to her when needed in the future! Thanks Again!”
“Alexandra dropped by to feed and water my three cats while we were out for 6 days. She sent pictures of the kitties each day, which was nice because I could see they were coming out to eat.”
“Jennifer did a great job. She communicated really well. Everything was in order and the pets seemed very content upon our return. We wouldn't hesitate to have Jennifer watch out pets again.”
“Siobhan was great with our three kitties and agreed to sit on short notice which was a lifesaver. She gave great updates and even dealt with some unexpected clean up needs. Would definitely recommend!”
“It was a quick and simple visit, but Caitlin went above and beyond to take care of my kitties. She spent time with them and even sent me pictures of them eating their food. Top notch sitter!”
“Madison was attentive, communicative when some unforeseen garden developments occurred, sent pics of my kitties, and they were so content when I got home after a long trip.”

“Joel & his wife were wonderful. We dropped our old lady blind pup Gouda with them, so we xoukd explore Eugene and areas for the day. They took us at the last minute and gave us great and kind service!”
“Journey is the perfect sitter for our reactive baby. I could immediately tell she has lots of experience and is comfortable with even fearful dogs like ours. The thing about Journey that I am most appreciative of is that she has Fear Free certification. She showed in all her communication with me that she understood Guinness’s needs through his body language and was respectful of his boundaries (however long they lasted, apparently he got pretty cuddly!). I will definitely be bringing Guinness back for boarding, daycare, and probably grooming too. I can’t express how grateful I am to imagine being able to board Guinness and therefore travel again! Thank you, Journey!”
“Denise did a great job! Biscuit was happy when we picked her up. She took Biscuit for walks and recorded them. Biscuit was comfortable enough to take a nap. I also appreciate the good day care price. We will use her again.”
“Daycare was a wonderful experience with Jennifer and Josh! Berry’s first visit was fantastic. He got to play and socialize, and I felt no worries while he was there. The meet and greet the day before was perfect assurance that it would be a good and safe fit. Drop off and pick up was very smooth and I received a photo and an update on how he was doing during the stay. Jennifer was also kind enough to give me feedback and guidance on training. Really looking forward to having Berry stay with them again soon.”
“What a great experience from start to finish! Sabrina is very kind, responds quickly, and sends lots of pictures/updates. My dog looked like she had a blast! I know she was greatly taken care of. I’ll absolutely be boarding my dog with her again”
“Our pups were relaxed and happy when we picked them up. A good sign they got lots of cuddle time. We will definitely use Joshua when we are back in the area.”
“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.”
“I am so, so glad I found Ruthie! I’m in the process of moving back to Eugene after a long absence, and while house sitting this week, needed someone to watch my dog Everett for a few hours while I ran some errands. It’s been nonstop travel/driving/boxes all summer and was concerned that Ev would be freaked out by yet another change in scenery…but it was instantly clear during the meet and greet that Ruthie’s house, coupled with her training and experience, would make for an excellent home-away-from-home environment. She walked us through her space, asked great questions about Ev’s personality and needs, and left me feeling totally confident that Ev’s visit would go perfectly. And it did— Ev was relaxed and in a great mood when I picked him up, and I got some great pics of his day. I knew he would be in great hands and look forward to bringing him back!”
“We had an outstanding experience with Erika. She really went the extra mile in being prepared, communicating well with us and giving Ruby a lot of exercise, as well as companionship with her dog. Highly recommended.”
“Rosa was so helpful in caring for my dog while she recovered from an injury. Melon was so happy to see her when we got to her house so I know she was given tons of love and attention. I would recommend Rosa to anyone!”
“Rogue had an amazing time at his first daycare with Valerie! Her home is truly a dog’s paradise, she’s put so much care into making it fun and safe for pups. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious, but Valerie eased my worries by answering all my questions and sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout the day. Rogue came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. It seemed like he didn’t want to leave! We fully trust Valerie and will definitely be booking with her again for daycare and overnight stays. 😊”
“I visited Eugene and needed some day care for my pups. Morgan is the first sitter I’ve felt totally comfortable leaving my dogs with in a long time. They both have their own unique personalities that require a watchful eye; Morgan was able to assure me they would be safe and upon meeting her I instantly knew they would be. She even went out of her way to help transport them at the end of day. Highly recommend Morgan (shoutout to her adorable dog Clover)!”
“Ying is absolutely fantastic! He took great care of our dog, making sure he had lots of exercise and affection and treats! He sent lots of videos and pictures during the day so we knew he was in good hands. We are very picky about who we trust with our dog and Ying is top notch! We have already booked another day with him. Thank you, Ying!”
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.
“I appreciated Claire's thoughtful intake process, her speed at replying, and her feedback from my girl's visit. Claire clearly cares about dogs and facilitating doggie-people relationships. I recommend her and look forward to booking future stays with her.”
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.
“We are travelling with our dog in our motorhome and found Alisa on Rover. We were impressed with her reviews and happy that she lived so near our son and his wife and 2 daughters. We attended our granddaughter's birthday party and didn't want to impose with our dog, so we booked the day with Alisa. She was responsive and communicative during the booking process, and even offered to meet with us before the day we needed dog-sitting. it was obvious as soon as we pulled up in front of her house that she truly cared about our little Roxie. She was waiting outside with a little treat for her. We felt very confident leaving our best friend with Alisa, and she lived up to her reviews. She sent us pictures throughout the day and when we went to pick up Roxie, it was obvious that she had a great visit with Alisa. She was happy and relaxed Glad to see us, but not overly so, which is a good sign. I highly recommend Alisa as a dogsitter.”
About: Hi, I’m Hope! I’ve always had a deep love for animals and am passionate about their well-being. In addition to caring for my own dog, Archie for the past three years, I also foster dogs through two local rescue organizations, including medical-case dogs that require extra patience, attention, and care. I graduated from Oregon State University in 2021 and earned my master’s degree from USC in 2025. I work fully remote from my home in Eugene, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, house sitting, or boarding, I want to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My dog is incredibly friendly and enjoys meeting new furry friends. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet as if they were my own! I work remote full time 8-4. I usually have only 1-2 meetings a day and am available to play/walk at lunch and take breaks for meal times! Your pet would be supervised all day! I have a fully fenced back yard and a friendly dog to keep your pup company! I can also crate your pup at whatever times you like to keep a routine! If I’m caring for pets in your home I’ll follow your exact routine, be with your pet all day, and keep your house clean!

“Shay really impressed me with her promptness and her demeanor. She asked great questions and did everything I asked her to do. She was very caring and sent great updates with pictures. I would highly recommend her… and so would Mason! 😊”
About: I’m experienced in caring for animals that have diabetic care, EPI and allergies. I'm a dog lovers household! I own a 3 bedroom house and have good size yard that is fenced that equipped with a large size dog door. My home is close to several dog parks in the Jasper area in Springfield. The household is very clean and non-smoking. There are no children in the household, but I do have a Chihuahua and two Walker Hounds. I have trained and shown high energy breeds such as German Shepherds and Boxers in Agility and Schutzhund. I currently do scent work with my coonhounds. Being a hound owner, I understand how to work with high endurance, high energy (and loud) dogs. Exercise along with daily mental stimulation activities helps to create a more positive experience. One of my coonhounds, Luna, is also a special needs dog. She was diagnosed with EPI as well as a hearing impairment. She requires weekly injections, daily medications and special diet restrictions. Watching another dog with a special need would be no issue for me. My dogs and I also attend dog parks regularly. I also have one cats who has his own room and will be separated from new dogs. All of my animals are friendly and well adapted to each other. I enjoy photography as a hobby and will send you plenty of pictures. During the weekdays, I work as a social worker and currently hold two Undergraduate degrees in psychology and biology. My biology degree was a pre-medical focus degree. I also have medical training and experience. I’m currently working on my graduate degree. I’m only available Friday-Sunday. During these days, I will be with the animals all day. Your pet will not be left alone. Unfortunately I’m no longer available on the weekdays. I have a dog-door, which allows dogs 24 hour access to inside and outside of the home. There is a fully fenced yard with secured gate.
“Justine has been doing a fantastic job with my dog, Daphne. I can tell by the pictures and short interactions I've seen with them that she and Daphne built a bond very quickly which is a testament to Justine's care and experience. I look forward to our continued bookings!”
“Kyimani has been so great with my dogs. She has watched them 3 times this week, and every time she watches them I feel I can breathe easy when I am away. She really takes the time to get to know both of my dogs personalities, and treats them very well. I know that when I book with Kyimani that my dogs are going to be very well taken care of. After she’s finished she writes very descriptive report cards for my dogs, which always make me laugh and smile because I can tell she is getting to know each of my dogs. If you are looking for a trusting and caring sitter, I recommend Kyimani all the way. I’m already booking with her next week as well!”
About: I have a cocker spaniel back home, whom I walked daily. During the winter I walked my neighbors dog 5 times a week for 45 minutes after school. I work from home managing social media for a local bakery in Portland, I make my own schedule. I also have practice from 6:25-8:25 daily. My dog used to bark at other dogs on walks, using a reward system I’ve trained her to stop and wait quietly when dogs pass.

“Madison did a great job with my two special-needs pups! One is in a stroller and has to be taken to the grass to potty, and the other is dog reactive. She handled them together like a pro! She showed up right on time as well. Highly recommend.”
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals, and caring for them isn't just a job for me, it's a lifelong love. I've pet- and farm-sat for friends, family, and clients who trusted me to feed, walk, and administer medications to their furry family members. I have a lot of experience with anxious and reactive dogs, as well as special needs and chronically ill pets. My own dog is leash reactive, and has an autoimmune illness, so I'm well practiced with medication schedules, extra-gentle handling, and reading subtle cues that something's off. I also spent 15 years riding horses, so I'm comfortable and confident around animals of all kinds and temperaments. These days I’m a dog mom to Mac and Rocky. And I currently work in animal welfare, so your pet's wellbeing is my profession. You can trust that your furry friend will be in experienced, compassionate hands. I work from home and have a flexible schedule to do drops, walks and to give some extra love! I have free time during weekdays and weekends I will follow your instructions to a t. I know it can be stressful to leave your pets with a new sitter, so I will provide detailed updates including photos.
About: Former dog owner (Luna & Scout) — long daily walks, parks, overnight boarding, feeding routines. Reliable, responsive, I'll treat your dog like my own in Springfield. Flexible and reliable, I always make pet care a priority in my routine. Whether it's daily walks, check-ins, or playtime, your pet’s needs come first. I prioritize safety and comfort by creating a pet-friendly environment. I follow routines, use positive reinforcement, and ensure pets feel secure and loved at all times.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for nearly 2 decades now (holy cow! I’m old enough to say that. Woof! ((No pun intended)). I’ve looked after dogs of all sizes. Cats of all attitudes. And even a few birds! I have a nearly 10 year old pitbull named Bindi, and she is a baby girl. I rescued her from a shelter when she was 8 weeks old and she has been by my side ever since. She and I did a lot of training together and I am used to working with big, powerful breeds. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so when my kiddo starts school this fall, I will have a lot of extra time to be able to help others take care of their fur babies. Before having my kiddo, I worked full time, so I understand the importance of needing a trusted person to help out sometimes. When I rescued my pitbull, Bindi, I knew there would be a lot of people out there who would judge her just because she was a pitbull. I knew I had to be extra careful not to let her get loose (even though she was trained). So I’m a huge advocate for tags on collars, collars fitting correctly, always using a leash when not in a fenced backyard. In addition to pet sitting, I’ve also house sat for many neighbors and friends over the years. I am respectful of other people’s things and spaces, and can be trusted to follow the directions that are given for each visit or walk.

About: I’ve never known life without animals. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, chickens, a pig, and horses, and have been responsible for animal care in some form since I was around six. Today, I have three dogs and three cats of my own, including two dogs under 1.5 years old, so I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, training routines, enrichment, walks, and consistency. I also have experience caring for senior pets, cats and dogs with different medical needs, and animals who need a little more patience or structure. I’m comfortable giving oral and injected medications, following detailed feeding and medication schedules, and noticing when something seems off. I’m also very active and love hiking, so I’m happy to tailor exercise to the dog in front of me — whether that means a relaxed neighborhood walk, a longer adventure, extra sniffing and enrichment, or helping a high-energy dog burn off some steam. What I bring most is a lot of real-life animal experience, patience, and attention to detail. I know the small things matter when someone else is caring for your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. I am self-employed and work from home M-Th, so I can work anywhere and have long weekends. My work days are completely on my own schedule, so I have time for potty breaks, walks, play time, or drop in visits whenever needed. I'm happy to help with your pets on any schedule. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and take the time to understand their specific needs, personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise preferences, and any household rules before care begins. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pets and the space, and I’m careful about things like doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and anything else that could affect safety. I also pay close attention to behavior and changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or anything that seems unusual. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how things are going. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, safe, and as close to their usual routine as possible while you’re away.
“Stone was attentive and caring with my 100lb+ dog and spent this first walk bonding with him & building trust. When they returned home my dog was happy and well stimulated (physically and mentally) and ready to chill. I’m absolutely booking again with Stone and I am looking forward to working with them in the future.”
About: Hello I’m Bianca! I am entering my senior year at U of O, barista at Dutch, and I want to love/care for your fur kids! I grew up with 3 corgis in my family, so I learned daily dog care early on with walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. Since then, I’ve taken care of family dogs and dogs belonging to close family friends, and I even dog sat for a breeder with more than 10 dogs at once, so I’m familiar with managing multiple dogs with different personalities, and busy households. I treat every pet like my own and can’t wait to be their new bestie 😋 I work part-time at Dutch Bros, so my schedule shifts week to week and I don’t have fixed days off. That said, I’m generally very flexible and can definitely work around my shifts to fit in walks and drop ins. Just send me your dates and I’ll let you know what works! 😊 Since I’ll mostly be taking care of pets at your home, I like to stick as close as possible to their normal routine, feeding times, walks, and whatever you’re used to doing. I’m careful about stuff like keeping doors and gates shut, giving meds if needed, and just making sure your pet feels comfortable the whole time. I love sending updates and photos so you’re not stressing while you’re away!
“Josh was Incredible! My dog, Ziggy, is a bit apprehensive meeting new people and especially welcoming people into our home. Josh listened to my requests for their first meeting and had such good vibes and body language that it was a mere matter of minutes before Ziggy was literally eating out of his hands and Ziggy had no problem with Josh following us upstairs and hanging out inside. I didn't doubt for a second that Josh could handle Ziggy's antics and his strength on the leash. Josh sent daily updates and pictures of Ziggy out on walks and snuggling with him on the couch. I had a friend checking in on my kitty but Josh noticed that she (the cat) had thrown up in the spare room and not only let me know about it, and kept an eye on her mood/behaviors but even took it upon himself to clean up the mess! I was blown away. Ziggy had a great time and I will definitely book Josh for future pet care. Thank you so much, Josh!”

“This was by far our best pet sitting experience! Our two miniature schnauzers are anxious, but we could tell they were very loved and well taken care of during our five days away. They seemed very sad to leave their new friends and slept a whole day after we got back! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of them and giving them a home away from home!!”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“Journey is the best! I had a flight delay and she was so flexible with adjusting the pick-up time for my pups, which was a huge stress relief! I always know my dogs are being well take-care of when Journey has them.”
“Jacqueline took great care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. She gave us lots of updates and sent frequent pictures so we knew our buddy was doing well. When we picked him up, he seemed pooped, so we know he got lots of attention and exercise. We would 100% have our fur baby stay with Jacqueline again!”
“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”
“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”
“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!”
“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”
“Cecilia and family took great care of my babe over a long weekend while I was out of town. She sent pictures and updates ensuring me she was having a wonderful time sunbathing and getting lots of cuddles. She has a back yard and took Helena outdoors to keep her fit and healthy. Cecilia is responsive and allowed me to be flexible given I was flying. I would recommend Cecilia for your pup's boarding anytime!”
“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.”
“I highly recommend Shay, she took such great care of my adolescent puppy! She has a very nice set up in her home to accommodate pets. She is very calm and gentle with animals and genuinely cares about their happiness!”
“Julie was so awesome! She sent updates with pics throughout each day which was sooooo very relieving for me. I could tell that my dog was being well cared for and being taken on many adventures :) He seemed to enjoy his time with Julie and I would definitely recommend her and/or ask her to board my doggie again.”
“We recently adopted our dog, who has been through a lot and were worried about leaving him for the first time, but the Armstrongs immediately made us feel comfortable, and that our dog would be left with a loving family. Our pup has some unique behaviors (liking to sit alone, enjoying time outside even if it is raining) and they were more than willing to allow him to be himself, without us having to ask. They also sent so many nice updates that made it easy for my partner and I to enjoy our vacation. Also, when our dog was having trouble eating his meals they kindly found a solution after checking with us to make sure he got food. Looking forward to having our dog stay with the Armstrongs again soon!”
“Reya was so happy with Sabrina and Derrick over a long weekend. Updates were sent daily and the pictures of her playing were amazing. I felt incredibly lucky to have Reya stay at Sabrina and Derrick’s and will definitely book again!”
“Caitlin was great! Very accommodating to set up a meet and greet and was able to watch our dog for 2 nights, with flexibility with drop off and pickup times. Sent plenty of photos and kept us updated on how our pup was doing.”
“I had a great experience with Brittany! Very sweet, always communicated and sent me pictures of my fur babies. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to others!”
“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”
“Ruthie took great care of our little pup! She checked in frequently and sent us lots of pictures so we knew he was having a good time. She also took him on walks each day and gave him lots of snuggles. It's always a bit of a worry leaving your pup at a new place, but it felt like we had dropped him off with a family member and we'll definitely use her services again!”
“We had an amazing experience having our dog stay at their home for 5 nights our pup really loved their property and being around them and in their home. Throughout our pups stay I received lots of photos of our pup and updates which was very above and beyond and it really meant a lot to us. Very nice to talk with and asked lots of questions to make sure she understood our Doggo before we took off. We felt at peace when we left our dog there that we knew he would be safe and loved. I am very excited to be using you again for any future stays that we are needing. Thanks again!!”
“Tina and James did a great job again. Otto got walks in the woods with other dogs every day. They were careful not to walk him in the afternoon heat on the 90 degree day. Safe and caring sitters.”
