“Coralee was caring, kind and took such good care of our goldendoodle!! She is professional and understands how to care for dogs. We received daily pictures and a quick note about how our dog doing each day. This was our 1st experience with Rover & Coralee - it could not have been better!! Highly recommend!!”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Natasha was great with our pup! She was very communicative while we were away, sending updates and pics throughout our trip. Since we were so in the loop we were confident that our boy was having a great time - he didn't want to leave at pick up!”
“I had a great experience leaving my dog with this family. They were very friendly and took the time to ask lots of questions to make sure everything went smoothly. Throughout the day, they sent me pictures of my dog playing with their dogs in their fenced yard, which gave me peace of mind. My dog came home happy and tired, which tells me he had a wonderful time. I would definitely recommend them!”
“I feel so fortunate to have found Tyler to care for my very active and rambunctious 9- month old golden retriever. Tyler is very dog savvy and understood the challenges he had. He walked my dog several times a day meeting new people and dogs. Just the kind of socialization a young dog needs. I loved the daily updates and pictures Tyler sent. My dog seemed to be having such a good time, I doubt he missed me at all.”
“Krista and her dog, Griffin, were the perfect hosts for my two Malt-Shih 2 y.o. pups. As with any siblings they have very different personalities, one outgoing but the other, very anxious. Krista, with her calm demeanor, won him over in no time, assisted by Griffin (a large dog whose size would normally trigger fear) mirrored his owner's gentle personality. I will definitely request Krista and Griffin in the future.”
“My booking request was super last minute because my previous arrangements fell through, and Augusta was originally not available but reached back out to me later on to tell me she would be able to if I still needed it which I greatly appreciated! She was great with Bobble and communicated very regularly about how he was doing!”
“Jessica was great with Zeke. She kept us updated with photos and videos. She even made Zeke's food palatable as he is a picky eater. He was happy tired at the end of the day. we will definitely use her services again.”
“Maple loved her stay! She and Luna became best friends, and I know they tired each other out! Lucas did a great job sending pics every day and letting me know how things were going. Would definitely book again!”
“Annette was lovely and caring to both Gustavo and me. Delays in flights meant I was 7 hours late in getting to Gus. Annette graciously dealt with this inconvenience. She was always quick to respond to communications. Most importantly, Gus clearly felt at home and welcomed from the minute she greeted him. When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
“Adrienne is awesome! She was very flexible with the pick up and drop off schedule, plus she took amazing care of Finn! Adrienne sent plenty of adorable pictures and videos of Finn having a great time playing with Phoebe. Highly recommended, would love to have her watch Finn again.”
“Couldn’t be more complementary about Lindsay and her family other than to say that they made Rusty feel like another part of their family. They welcomed him with open arms knowing he had counter surfing issues and separation anxiety. From the photos she sent, it is evident that Rusty enjoyed his stay.”
“Justin was very welcoming and after a visit together with Watson, I left Alexa in good hands. Justin sent lots of pictures of Alexa and Watson taking walks, and relaxing at home.”
“We cannot say enough good things about Brad (and Jenni)! Our dogs are a bit quirky and we are very selective with who watches them. These two hit it out of the park! We received multiple daily updates and lots of pictures of our dogs doing their favorite activities, just as if they were home with us. Extremely patient and caring dog lovers.”
“Emily and Patrick were very kind and flexible with us when my boyfriend and I needed a dog sitter for a wedding. We were late picking her up and they were very understanding. Our dog and Eli must have had a blast together, because slept the entire next day! We will be using them again in the future!!”
“Elizabeth was a great choice to care for my dog Dunkin! She let him make himself right at home in her space and sent consistent pictures and updates allowing me to have great peace of mind while away. Would recommend!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”

“Isabella was wonderful with Daisy. She sent updates and pics and I was so happy to see how great Daisy was doing while I was away. Daisy was well cared for and I will absolutely continue to hire Isabella for future visits.”
“Mary was thorough and had good communication. 😸 I especially appreciate that she talked to my scared and hiding cat during her breakfast to try to earn her trust for the future. We give her 2 paws up! 🐾”
“TL;DR, Brandon is great! He dropped in twice daily to feed, water, and play with our two cats (and scoop the litter) while we were abroad. He did a great job of making sure they had all the essentials, plus some TLC. Our more skittish cat surprised us and by the end of it we were getting pics of the cat in his lap. We looked forward to the updates and pictures throughout our trip and overall just had a big weight lifted to know they were in good hands.”
“Tiffany is awesome! She did drop-in visits with our cat Marshall while my husband and I went out of town for a trip. He warmed up to her right away. She is very communicative and super quick to respond. Would definitely recommend her to others and will be re-booking in the future!”
“This is the second time Jennifer has watched my cats and she is just the best! She brought in our mail, took out the trash without even being asked, feeds the fish, and spends time with the cats rather than ducking out early. We appreciate her!”
“Sarah was a lifesaver for our last minute request to watch our cats! She was amazing with Marlin and Lola… 2 very different 🐈🐈⬛personalties. We got lots of PICTs and messages… 💯 % recommend Sarah!”
“Julia was incredible with our Princess Ewok! I will definitely book with her in the future. The updates and daily pics were just what I needed everyday to give me peace of mind. Julia knew exactly what was needed with our older cat-lots of love (of course, on cat terms)”
About: I've stopped in and taken care of several cats over the years - refilled food and water, emptied their litter box, played with their toys, supplied ample scritches. I love cats and their silly personalities, and though I don't personally have a feline friend, many of my friends and family members do, so I'm very comfortable with their mannerisms and needs for care.
“Cam took such excellent care of my kitties! Great, thorough, timely, and hilarious updates. My cats were so chill when I got home, I seriously think they were like, wait a minute, where’s Cam, what are you doing here?? Gilly has a new best friend, and even Petunia, my cat with a shall we say ‘difficult’ personality, was warming up. I’d hire Cam again in a heartbeat!”
About: I’ve always loved animals, but my appreciation for cats really grew during college when many of my friends had cats of their own. Spending time around so many different personalities made me love how unique, playful, and comforting cats can be. I’ve cat sat for friends throughout college as well as family friends during high school, helping with feeding, playtime, litter box care, and making sure their cats felt comfortable and cared for while they were away. My family also had a cat when I was very little, and now I'll have a black cat of my own who I absolutely adore. I understand that every cat has a different personality — some are social and affectionate, while others are more shy and independent — and I always make sure to respect their space and routine. Whether your cat wants playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and reliable presence, I’ll make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.
“Michelle was amazing. Chickens were happy. The cats were calm and looked healthy, rather than stressed out—which is how they usually act when I get home. Litter cleaned, no messes, and when I ran out of cat food, she let me know and we arranged a delivery. I think my misfits miss her. Highly recommend—best sitter yet.”
“This is our second time having Rebecca take care of our kitties, and she did an excellent job! She is communicative and sends lots of pictures. I would highly recommend her :)”
“Carly did a great job taking care of our cat. She also took care several small critters including geckos, a bearded dragon and fish. We scheduled her for a last-minute trip and appreciated her willingness to fit us in and follow the minimal instructions that we provided to care for everything.I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs all my life, and I have lots of experience with big breeds as I’ve owned three Newfoundlands and a Leonberger. I also have some experience with elderly dogs. I have assisted in training all the dogs I’ve owned, and most importantly, I love all animals! I’m a college student home for the summer, so I’ve gotten plenty of time to spend time with your doggy. I’m less available early in the day (6–9AM), but from 9AM onward I’m at the disposal of your puppy. :) I’m quite good with crate training, as well as dogs that are a bit more stubborn. I am comfortable staying with them as long or as short as needed. I also have a lot of experience walking dogs that require prong collars or harnesses.
“This was my first Rover experience, and Jesse did a great job taking care of my cat, Freddie. I appreciated that she was available at short notice. When I returned, I could tell that she had taken very good care of Freddie. I appreciated receiving daily updates and pictures. I will definitely use her services the next time I travel.”
“April checked in on my two cats while I was out of the country for a few weeks. She communicated promptly and clearly, kept me updated on how they were doing, and let me know about other potential issues in the home that she noticed while there.”
“This was my first booking with Heather and she exceeded all of my expectations. She communicated clearly and gave me peace of mind while I was away. And went above and beyond in preparing the house for my return. And, I returned to a happy kitty. I will definitely book with Heather again.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for all of my life and have been helping care for pets since I was about 10 years old. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, from playful, high-energy pups to shy older dogs who need a little extra patience and time to feel comfortable. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive to the little details that matter. I know every pet has their own routine, quirks, likes, dislikes, and comfort level, and I take that seriously. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a slow sniffy walk, extra reassurance, careful feeding instructions, or just someone calm and kind to hang out with them, I’ll follow your directions closely and care for them with patience. I also understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll keep you updated, communicate clearly, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Because I’m currently a Physician Assistant student, my schedule is too variable for me to have my own dog full-time right now, but I truly miss having that connection and companionship with animals. I’d love the opportunity to give your pet the same care, attention, and affection I would give my own! My schedule varies with school/clinical responsibilities, but I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits depending on the day, and I’ll always be honest and clear about my availability before booking so your pet gets reliable, consistent care. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, careful, and detail-oriented. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding instructions, medications if needed, leash/harness preferences, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m also mindful of safety details like doors, gates, leash security, and how your pet responds to people, other animals, or new environments. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for, while giving you peace of mind that they’re in responsible hands.

“Juniper had the best day with Adrienne and her pupper. I felt very secure leaving my furchild with her and appreciated all the photos and videos.”
About: I am the current owner of an 10 week old Rough Collie and a two year old Dalmatian Lab mix. Our fur babies are just as important as our human one! My family also has solid experience with senior pets. I have had many and varied pets over the years: cats, dogs, hamsters, gerbils, Guinea pigs, birds and have loved them all! I will love your baby just like my very own! Thank you for the privilege of allowing me to care for your non human babies! I look forward to meeting each and every one! If you talk with any of my family and friends they know how crazy I am about my fur babies and your fur babies will too! I look forward to meet you in person! Sincerely, I am a full time stay at home caregiver for my dad who is partially paralyzed. I am able to always be available to your pets in my home. I am able to let your dogs run free in my fenced-in and private back yard and I can walk them daily or more around my pet friendly neighborhood.
“We are first-time dog-owners, and finding someone to watch our puppy Royce felt overwhelming. But Royce stayed with Tyler for a day as a trial run and came home happy and unstressed - and we felt so thankful to have found someone who was not only comfortable for Royce but who also enjoyed our puppy. The pictures and updates were very fun to receive; Royce clearly had a great time. We have already booked two future boarding dates with Tyler!”
“Gregory was an awesome sitter! He was so easy to communicate with and was super laid back. He listened to my pups needs and made sure pup was happy. He has the sweetest dog (Zora) that I have ever met. I’m so glad I found Zora and Gregory. I’ve never seen my pup leave as happy as he did, this sit:)”
“Maria and her husband have been great with my mini bernedoodle puppy. I take him over for doggy day care 2 days a week and I get updates as well as many pictures of him running and playing! It makes me feel less stressed to know he is being well cared for while I’m working. I would definitely recommend them!”
“Maureen & her family were so wonderful! It was my first time using Rover so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but they exceeded any expectations! They were so friendly and really accommodating at the last minute. They made my dog Bear feel right at home, and you can tell they are passionate dog people so they’ll make you and your pup feel comfortable too! Maureen sent me pictures throughout the day, took Bear for walks, and gave him so much love. I’ll definitely use them again in the future when something comes up and I need a sitter!”
“Justin was great as he was able to accommodate a late evening daycare visit for our dog Fran while we went for an event in town. He was incredibly accommodating and flexible with the timing and was very eager to help. His corgi Watson is adorable and a very social dog. Our dog was anxious but Justin was able to keep her company and sooth her while we were gone for a few hours, she eventually relaxed and laid her head on his lap! I would highly recommend Justin to take care of your dog as he loves them and provides great care for them.”
“Valerie and her son were absolutely incredible!! We made the request last minute and she was able to accommodate us which was so sweet. She’s great with communication and flexible as well. Most importantly, she kept in touch with us throughout the day, kept Wilson active and playful, and gave us a very detailed report at the end of the day. We are so lucky we found Valerie, would highly recommend!!”
“Sophie was fantastic and Eva seemed happy when I went to pick her up. I would be very comfortable leaving Eva in Sophie's care again if needed. Thanks for taking good care of my sweet girl!”
“Picked up a happy and sleepy puppy! Christy is so kind and very on-top of communications and updates. She was more than flexible with my pickup window. Big fenced in back yard where the dogs can play. Will absolutely be rebooking!”
About: I’ve always been a dog lover and both me and brother rescued Labrador early prior to the covid year. We love him so much and since I moved countries he now lives with my parents in India. I wear a paw on my necklace which is a memory that he is not far away and will always take care of my parents behind me. Zorro now sits on the dinner table and enjoys all family meals. As someone with medical training and a responsible active lifestyle, I am calm under pressure, highly dependable and attentive to routines, medications, special care needs and feeding schedule. Whether your pet is playful or prefer quiet companionship I’m happy to adapt to their personality and needs. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family 🐾 I relocated to Pittsburgh from Boston for my medical training this year. I thrive on a schedule and can work if we plan the days well in advance together. I will be open to taking care of your pet as needed and happy to coordinate a schedule for walks/boarding at my house with you. My partner and I are trustworthy, active, and organized, and we genuinely care about making your dog feel safe and loved while you're away from home. 🐾 I live in an apartment with my spouse who has grown up all around dogs as pets since he was a kid so we both love dogs but don’t have one of our own currently. Your pet is allowed on our sofa and enjoy the area of a one bedroom. If I am at your home, I will aim to make your pet feel as comfortable and stress free as possible while the owner is way by keeping a normal routine in their own home environment. I will carefully follow your instructions and communication is very important to me, so I can provide regular updates , photos and check-in to help the owner feel reassured. As someone with a medical background I am very attentive to details and safety.
“Valerie was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable leaving Dusty in her care. She was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly genuinely loves animals. She sent thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our girl came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for…❤️ Valerie went above and beyond in every way, and it’s obvious she treats the pets she watches like family. We would not hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and dependable. Thank you, Valerie, for taking such amazing care of our furry family member!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for friends and family since I was a kid. I love all animals, especially dogs and cats. I can’t walk past a dog on the street without asking politely to pet them! Two years ago I rescued my dog, Stanley, who is a 24 lb terrier mix. He was abused and took a very long time to warm up, but after a lot of patience and love he’s now thriving and the best boy. I learned a lot with Stanley and feel equipped to work with shyer dogs. Stanley also likes hanging out with other dogs and would enjoy some company around the house! I currently work from home full time, so my availability is flexible. Stanley and I would be happy to have you hang out with us at my place (I’d recommend a meet and greet first). Or, I could stay at your place with your pet if that’s better for them, as long as I can have access to the WiFi so I can work. I live close to a nature trail that I take Stanley on daily, and we’re very familiar with the neighborhood. I can take frequent walk breaks and crate your pet if needed.
“My girl absolutely loves spending the day with Amy! We always get pictures and updates and know our girl is going to have a fantastic time. She gets so excited on the way there, it's awesome.”
“Lucas and his family are super friendly! Nova was exhausted from her day of fun. They have a huge backyard that is fenced, allowing her to run around safely. Definitely would recommend Lucas for daycare :)”
About: 🐶 Having been surrounded by dogs my entire life, I’ve developed a deep understanding and appreciation for their care. Growing up with dogs and raising my own, Harlow 🐾, from a puppy, has given me firsthand experience in fostering their well-being. My passion for animals extends beyond personal experience—participation in clubs at the Pittsburgh Zoo 🦁 provided me with valuable insights into animal behavior and care, further enhancing my knowledge. Being from Pittsburgh, I am fluent with many resources for me to enjoy with pets. 🐕🦺 My pet care journey started in 2014 with my first job at a dog care store on Butler Street, where I honed my skills in providing attentive and compassionate care. During my internship with the Water Authority in Bradford, PA, I dedicated my lunch breaks to volunteering at the local SPCA 🏠, offering love and attention to animals in need. These experiences have shaped me into a dedicated, knowledgeable, and empathetic sitter. 💛 As an alumni M.S. engineering student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for my pets. I can easily fit dog walks, feeding, and playtime into my routine, ensuring each pet gets the attention it deserves. My love for animals and adaptable schedule make it easy to prioritize their well-being. I currently care for two dogs, my mother's and her boyfriend's, and have hands-on experience managing their daily needs. At home, I ensure a safe environment with our fenced-in yard and always prioritize the pets' well-being. For my clients' pets, I’m adaptable to their specific routines, whether that involves feeding, walks, playtime, or creating a comfortable space. Every pet in my care receives love and attention tailored to their unique needs.

About: I grew up with a reactive black lab, so I know how to handle leash pulling and how to deescalate and prevent fights. In her old age, I learned to accommodate her failing joints. I’ve been trained at the Licking County Humane Society in Ohio as a volunteer dog walker, which has well equipped me to understand and respond respectfully to dog language. I further pursue this knowledge by reading about how dogs communicate with us, and by observing and analyzing their behavior both in real life and online. This will be my primary commitment, so I can easily cater to your schedule to fit your pets needs. Mornings, evenings, weekends, whatever you need, except Thursdays :) I will take great care to follow your instructions and respect the rules of your home and needs of your animal(s). I cannot accept boarding in my own home at the moment.
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve also had the privilege of working at a doggy daycare/boarding business for several summers, where I absolutely loved caring for clients’ pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior pups. If you have concerns about a senior dog, don’t worry—I’m very comfortable following specific schedules, administering routines, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether your dog needs lots of playtime or a calm, gentle companion, I’m happy to provide a safe and comfortable experience while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend!!! I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. I’m typically available Monday through Friday at any time, and I can accommodate a variety of routines and needs. While I prefer weekdays, I may be able to help on weekends with advance notice I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In your home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walk routines, or any specific care your pet needs. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I keep a clean and secure environment, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are always properly handled. During walks, I stay alert and avoid unsafe situations to keep your pet protected.
About: In addition to providing loving, attentive care in my home, I can provide the same care inside your home. Whether your pet needs routine, play, structure, or snuggles, you can trust they’re in capable, compassionate hands! I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide attentive, around-the-clock care in a comfortable home setting. Your pet will never be left alone for long. If you prefer in-home sitting, I’m also happy to care for your pet in your home, as long as Wi-Fi is available Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on safety, comfort, and personalized attention. In my home, your pet will enjoy a relaxed environment with plenty of enrichment. I have a friendly golden retriever and a few sweet, well-socialized cats who love meeting new friends. I also have an eight daughter who loves all animals. If your pet prefers their own space, I’m also able to crate them upon request. My yard is a great bonus—it’s a nice size and includes a secure run where dogs can safely stretch their legs and play. Inside, I have plenty of pet toys and soft spots for lounging, so your pet can enjoy both stimulation and rest throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routines closely to ensure consistency and comfort for your pet. I’m happy to accommodate special instructions, administer medications, and offer companionship throughout the day. Whether in my home or yours, your pet will be treated like family.
“Thanks so much for walking Turtle! Even in cold weather, Tiffany made sure Turtle got his exercise and bathroom break! Very grateful and will reach out again!”
“Diana has been great with our dog. It is obvious that she cares deeply about animals. She even carried Zora home when it was too cold for her paws! What more could I ask for?”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 50 years. I've cared for my own pets as well as regularly helped family and friends by watching their dogs, walking them, and making sure they were well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like part of the family. I am retiring and love working with dogs, so my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care while keeping active and meeting new furry friends I provide a safe and loving environment with a fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time. I make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also enjoy keeping pets engaged with toys and fun activities, including an outdoor pool in the summer, so they stay happy, active and comfortable.
“Carly is extra special. I will never have any fear or doubt in leaving my fur babies in her care. I had detailed after visit notes and pictures. My boys were well taken care of. Will definitely be scheduling Carly again!!”
“Zoe walked my dog for the first time this week and it went amazingly! I felt very comfortable knowing she was taking care of Quinn and she was extremely communicative. Will definitely book her again.”
About: I've watched and walked friends and neighbors dogs since I was eleven years old. While my paid experience is currently minimal, my familiarity, energy, and reliability goes the extra mile. Whether you're short on time, heading on vacation, or not physically able to take your pup on the walk they need, I'm here to help. I've was also lucky enough to have a sassy silver tabby cat of my own for 17 years. I adore cats and would gladly sit for them as well. I'm currently in-between jobs, focusing on a passion project so I have plenty for time and flexibility to look after your pet's needs. I am not currently available to board in my home as my lease does not allow pets, but I'd gladly look after them in your home once we've established trust between us and your pets.
“Heather does an amazing job with my 2 pups!! She makes sure they have on their coats or harnesses depending on the cold temps. My pups enjoy the long walks with her and being able to sniff at their own pace!! The pups get so excited to see her! Definitely would recommend Heather to take care of your pets!!”
About: I work in animal rescue and have personally cared for over 1000 different animals! Not only am I able to do regular pet care, I can also administer many different types of medication and am confident with shy or nervous animals. I am self employed, so I have a flexible schedule when needed. I currently have Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays wide open. I also have afternoon availability Saturdays and Sundays. I can almost always squeeze in an evening visit. I cannot currently board animals in my home, as I’m at capacity with 5 cats, some of which are nervous around new animals.

“Bryce did a great job taking care of Niko on his morning walks while I was out of town. He was reliable, always on time, and kept me updated with pictures and texts, which I really appreciated. I’d definitely book with him again.”
“We were in Pittsburgh for our wedding and were lucky enough to book with a few days notice. She was responsive and communicative. Very easy to book with and seemed capable of handling our awkward and anxious catahoula tripod.”

“Coralee was caring, kind and took such good care of our goldendoodle!! She is professional and understands how to care for dogs. We received daily pictures and a quick note about how our dog doing each day. This was our 1st experience with Rover & Coralee - it could not have been better!! Highly recommend!!”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Natasha was great with our pup! She was very communicative while we were away, sending updates and pics throughout our trip. Since we were so in the loop we were confident that our boy was having a great time - he didn't want to leave at pick up!”
“I feel so fortunate to have found Tyler to care for my very active and rambunctious 9- month old golden retriever. Tyler is very dog savvy and understood the challenges he had. He walked my dog several times a day meeting new people and dogs. Just the kind of socialization a young dog needs. I loved the daily updates and pictures Tyler sent. My dog seemed to be having such a good time, I doubt he missed me at all.”
“Krista and her dog, Griffin, were the perfect hosts for my two Malt-Shih 2 y.o. pups. As with any siblings they have very different personalities, one outgoing but the other, very anxious. Krista, with her calm demeanor, won him over in no time, assisted by Griffin (a large dog whose size would normally trigger fear) mirrored his owner's gentle personality. I will definitely request Krista and Griffin in the future.”
“Annette was lovely and caring to both Gustavo and me. Delays in flights meant I was 7 hours late in getting to Gus. Annette graciously dealt with this inconvenience. She was always quick to respond to communications. Most importantly, Gus clearly felt at home and welcomed from the minute she greeted him. When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
“Adrienne is awesome! She was very flexible with the pick up and drop off schedule, plus she took amazing care of Finn! Adrienne sent plenty of adorable pictures and videos of Finn having a great time playing with Phoebe. Highly recommended, would love to have her watch Finn again.”
“Couldn’t be more complementary about Lindsay and her family other than to say that they made Rusty feel like another part of their family. They welcomed him with open arms knowing he had counter surfing issues and separation anxiety. From the photos she sent, it is evident that Rusty enjoyed his stay.”
“Justin was very welcoming and after a visit together with Watson, I left Alexa in good hands. Justin sent lots of pictures of Alexa and Watson taking walks, and relaxing at home.”
“We cannot say enough good things about Brad (and Jenni)! Our dogs are a bit quirky and we are very selective with who watches them. These two hit it out of the park! We received multiple daily updates and lots of pictures of our dogs doing their favorite activities, just as if they were home with us. Extremely patient and caring dog lovers.”
“Emily and Patrick were very kind and flexible with us when my boyfriend and I needed a dog sitter for a wedding. We were late picking her up and they were very understanding. Our dog and Eli must have had a blast together, because slept the entire next day! We will be using them again in the future!!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”
“Amy, thanks again for watching our Doji girl at the last minute. Doji loves being with all the other dogs. I think it is almost like Doji is having her own vacation, away from her human owners. Thanks again, Doris & Marcel.”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“We would like to give Ali 10 stars! She was the best possible caregiver for our nervous goofy dog. She sent dear photos and videos during our trip, and it was so sweet to hear how she spoke to Lucky. On top of all of the expert care, she was extremely gracious and flexible when I made a mistake with the booking dates. We feel so fortunate to have found Ali.”
“Victoria was amazing. This was our first time leaving our dog with someone outside of our family and it couldn’t have gone better. Victoria ensured us that we would receive morning and night videos/pictures of our dog. It was so relieving to know Rogers was in good hands. Would absolutely recommend others to leave their fur babies with her 💚”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Chang! She took care of my dog Archie while I was away on business travel, and from the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease knowing my furbaby was in such loving and capable hands. Chang went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she treat Archie like her own—with so much love, care, and attention—but she was also incredibly flexible when my travel plans were unexpectedly extended. She adjusted without hesitation and gave me one less thing to worry about during a hectic trip. Throughout Archie’s stay, Chang was extremely communicative. She sent regular updates, photos, and sweet messages that showed just how happy and well-cared-for Archie was. It truly meant the world to me to have that peace of mind while being away. I wholeheartedly recommend Chang to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter. She’s an absolute gem, and I hope to always have her care for Archie in the future. Thank you, Chang! 🐾💛”
“Mary and her family were great! We had absolutely no worries leaving our dog with them for the weekend. Mary sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend, keeping us posted on how great it was going! Definitely going to rebook!”
