“I recently left my 1 year old lab with Jordan for 2 weeks while I was out of the country for vacation. She texted me updates and photos during my time away. My dog was calm and happy when I returned. I highly recommend Jordan.”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Carol was amazing with my fur child. She sent pictures everyday and just loved on her like she was her own. Will use her every time I have to leave town and can't take my girl with me!”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
“Our dog Taylor had another great weekend stay with Andrew and Karen! Andrew sent us lots of updates with photos and videos. Will be using them again soon for our week long vacation.”
“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
“Beatriz and her family are wonderful people who truly care about your pets. I was nervous about leaving my two yorkies who have some health issues and require twice daily medications. She took them on without a second thought. She sent me pictures and updates to help me feel at ease. When I came to get them, my dogs were relaxed/very comfortable there. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“I highly recommend Renae for anyone needing a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! It was my first time leaving my Addie for a whole week but I felt at ease knowing Renae was taking care of her. Renae treated Addie like her own, including letting her play with her own dogs in her spacious yard. Renae showed how much she cared by making special food for Addie when she wasn’t eating well at first. The daily updates about how Addie was doing, always with a picture of short video made me feel confident that Addie was happy, healthy, and safe. Renae is so sweet and caring, and you can tell she really loves dogs. Knowing Addie was in such good hands made it much easier to leave and relax on vacation. I couldn't possibly say enough good things about Renae!”
“Jessica was wonderful with our dog, Primrose! Primrose really enjoyed playing with her dog. And she was totally spoiled all weekend. Jessica sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout the weekend, reassuring us that Primrose was happy. We will definitely trust Jessica to care for her in the future!”
“Mar is great to Molly. Even when a family emergency came up and I had to extend the visit unexpectedly, Mar was super helpful and accommodating. Molly gets excited when we pull up to the house, so I know she is in good hands and has a great time when she's there.”
“Melissa is an angel! She is incredible with all dogs and so accommodating and kind, even with some very short notice help we needed. Our senior dog loved her and her yard, I cannot recommend her enough, we are so happy we have found her for future sitting.”
“Patrick is wonderful. He has watched my puppy and now my senior boy. My senior boy had a little trouble adjusting and Patrick was so kind and easy to communicate with. He provided much appreciated photos and updates and I never once had to worry about my buddy.”
“Amanda was great with our dog Charlee. She kept us up to date and sent us daily pictures. She gave our dog a lot of love and attention, which put us at ease while we vacationed. This was our first experience with Rover and it was a great one with Amanda. Thank you Amanda!”
“Beatriz exceeded all of my expectations. She sent me “pupdates” of my dog throughout the duration of his stay with her which provided me the best reassurance that he was in excellent hands. I definitely will be reaching out to her again next time I am out of town and need doggy boarding!?”

“Joselle was a great pet sitter. She not only cared for our large senior dog, she also took care of our daughter’s 9 week old puppy. She kept in touch with us & was very attentive. Will definitely book her again”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine life without them. Growing up with dogs taught me that every pup has a unique personality, and over the years I’ve also cared for dogs belonging to family members and friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—as well as dogs with different temperaments, activity levels, and care needs. In addition to personal pet care experience, I am an active shelter volunteer at Four Footed Friends, where I enjoy hands-on experience working with dogs of varying backgrounds and abilities. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making each dog feel safe and loved. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and treat them like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I work full time M-F 8am-4:30pm. I can be available mornings before work, or evenings after, during weekdays. Weekends are flexible. Working out what works best for you and your pets should not be a problem. I have a four-year-old female (spayed) mini goldendoodle who is highly socialized with a friendly temperament and loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. I try to get her out for a walk every day, depending on weather, or at least a little time sitting outside on the porch or playing fetch in the yard. If we can’t go outdoors, she loves to play tug, and enjoys puzzle toys for mental stimulation, or some trick training with treats. We both love to be outside during the summer, so if you have a backyard, we are willing to entertain your pup with play, lounging outside, or going for a walk.
About: I had a few cats when I was a kid. While most of my experience is with dogs, my mom owns three cats and I have taken care of them while she has gone on vacation many times! I am a genuine animal lover and I adore cats just as much as dogs.
About: I have always lived with cats in the house. I work with cats at PetSmart cleaning the cages, giving food and water, and socializing the cats. I have a flexible schedule. I am on weekdays and weekends in the morning, afternoon, and night. I am happy to see your pet at anytime. I respect cats if they do not want to interact with me. I will back away from the cats if they seem angry or scared.
“Paige did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs. Our puppy wasn’t feeling great the night before but Paige kept me posted on how she was doing throughout the day. Dogs were happy when we came home and house was as we left it. Would definitely use Paige again.”
“Hope is truly the best sitter we have ever had! She's so sweet and kind, our animals love her especially our pup who is older and doesn't always do well with new people in the house!”
About: I used to work at an animal rescue so I’ve dealt with all kinds of dogs! What I learned from working there is that every animal is special and deserves all the love in the world. I work part-time at an elementary school. I typically work Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so my schedule any other day is wide open. I just need the client to put in the request a couple days in advance! I am a college student so I live in an apartment with three other girls. The apartment is pet friendly and we have dogs over all the time! There is no fenced in yard, but there is a beautiful, spacious yard behind the complex. As for a client’s home, I will care for the pet per the clients request!
About: I have 6 years of experience with dogs. From doggy daycare, Kennels, and veterinary clinics I have all the experience your furry friend would need! I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, medications and so much more! I will care for your dogs like my own. I currently work part time at a kennel I've been at for 3 years now. I can do Monday-Friday evening as of right now. I do Walks mainly but also drop ins and daycares. I do not do overnight stays or in home stays. I do not care for pets in my home but I would be happy to do whatever needs done with your furry friend. A walk? Ball time? You name it and I'll be happy to do it!
“As soon as I met Joudi, I felt so much better about leaving my two cats for a week. She took great care of them, and I especially want to thank her for the love and attention given to my girl who has a brain tumor.”
About: Hi there! I’m Jae☺️, a passionate dog lover and experienced dog walker. With a deep appreciation for all breeds, I’m dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and engaging experience for your furry friends. I prioritize their well-being and happiness during our walks, ensuring they get the exercise and socialization they need. Having worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll in the park or an energetic romp, I tailor each walk to suit your dog’s preferences. I’m also committed to maintaining open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos during our adventures together. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members and give them the care and attention they deserve! Let’s make every walk a tail-wagging good time! I’m currently in college so this schedule goes great with my classes. Sometimes my classes get canceled and I can dog sit early or take walks early. I have a dog playground in my neighborhood. I also have plenty of space inside to play and run around. I promise to make this a great experience.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I've had a variety of dog breeds. I currently have 3 of my own; one big(Australian Shepard dobermand mix), one medium (pitbull), and one small (mini pinscher). I also dog sit for friends when they go on vacation. I walk, feed, bathe, and play with their dogs as well as my own. I am an EMT. I work 12 and 24 hour shifts rotating between 2-3 days a week. On my days off I plan to spend them with some dogs and/or cats! In my home I have a fenced in back yard that my dogs can run and play safely. Fetch is my pitbulls favorite game and I love to play with her. If I were to take care of your pets I would make sure to follow your dog's schedule as they normally would, including playtime and walks!
About: I'm a huge animal lover with a love of love to give. I’ve taken care of a variety of cats for about 10 years now whether it was through family or other. Your kitty will be in the most incredible care when they are with me!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life so I know what all needs to be done and parents have relied on me to take care of our animals. I have also dog/cat sat for my neighbors multiple times every year. I’m reliable to take them on walks, feed them, and all of that. I am a current student at IUP but only have one class a day with multiple online on top of two part time jobs but my schedule is very flexible so I’d be able to spend more time with your animals if you’d prefer! If your dogs need to be crated I can easily do that, if they need to be walked can do that. Whatever you’d need done for them Id be able to do since I’ve grown up with two german shepherds my whole life.
About: I have tons of experience with both cats and dogs. I have two pets of my own that i trained and take care of, a golden retriever and a cat! I am home for the summer hoping to save for college. I can promise I will be a great person to rely on to take care of your pets! I work an evening shift at my part time job throughout the week, but it is very flexible. I am open throughout the week and can work per care into my schedule very easily. I have a very friendly dog in my home and a cat that is inside and outside. When it comes to caring for your pet in my home, I will treat them as my own! My dog gets almost daily walks and is on a very consistent feeding schedule, as yours will be as well.

About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 12 and have house sit/walked/let out my friends and families dogs for years. I love taking care of them like they are my own as I don’t have any pets living with me now. I don’t work all summer long. I travel most weekends but am available during the week all day. I am off of work until August 1 and then my schedule doesn’t allow for much flexibility. I live in an apartment complex that is very dog friendly. There is plenty of room for dogs to use the bathroom and go for walks on the leash. I allow pets on my furniture but if that’s not what you do in your household I will implement the same rules you use. No matter how friendly your dog is, I won’t allow other dogs to approach since I don’t know many of the dogs in my complex. I do not hit dogs as a reprimand at any time so please tell me what methods you’re comfortable with me using instead if needed. Honestly, if there’s anything specific you can feel free to ask for it or question me if you need!
“Marcy is beyond wonderful! She’s so caring and I can tell Porter has a good time while he stays with her and her dog Charlie. He comes home completely I can’t seem to keep him awake which is amazing because he’s just a 3 month old puppy and is typically a wild child in the afternoons! Marcy was so kind to take him on at a late request and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my little man. She made me feel so comfortable immediately! If I could give her more than five stars I would! She is so kind and I can guarantee she’d treat anyone’s pup like the special little fur ball they are :)”
About: I have been taking care of Dogs, Cats and some Horses for as long as I can remember. I am the person who seeks out the family pet to hang out with instead of the adults :) I raised cocker spaniels in California for a few years. (2 litters) Both my Cocker Spaniels lived to 17 years old! I now have an 11 year old Golden who is the love of my life, I have been giving him CBD for 4 years, and he still acts like a teenager. My mini Golden is a Rescue. She has really come a long way in the 2 years that I have had her. She is the queen of the house now. I love ever minute of it. I am currently not working and would love to just pet sit for a living instead of seeking anything else. I live in Hernando Beach and can either visit your home, or stay at your home. Or I can bring your fur baby to my home. I have two golden retrievers. I can even set up your pet in the lower level (where I would also stay) if your fur baby needs to be away from my two. I have a fenced yard, multiple dog doors, and we love walks! Also lots of beds and couches to snuggle up on! We live on the water and the pups can stick there paws in the water if they would like.
About: I've had a strong passion for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family relied on me to care for our dogs, cats, and hamsters. I now live in my own home with 4 cat children. I have dog-sat and cat-sat for several neighbors. I am very experienced at dog and cat walking, bathing, feeding, and medicine-giving. During the week I work as a full time engineer and cat mom. On the weekends, I have plenty of free time to hang out, play in the yard, or go for walks with your pet. In my home, I have 4 cats of varying ages (1 yr, 3 yrs, 4 yrs, 6yrs). They are friendly and well-adapted to other dogs and cats. They often have playdates with my parent's 16 year old cat and 7 month old kitten. Each of my cats are vaccinated, neutered, and love making new friends! In your home, I will accommodate any requests you may have. I will ensure the safety and happiness of your pet above all else.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and have cared for them myself since I was 10 years old. My dog of 14 years recently passed away and I've decided to sign up for Rover to get my puppy fix keeping other dogs company while their owners are at work, traveling etc. I work from home full time, have a large fenced in yard and can give your dog(s) the love and attention they deserve!

Our home is air conditioned/heated and comfortable to your pets while you are working/away.
About: Although this account is under my name, this is a team effort with my wife. We’re a young, energetic couple who have all the time and patience your pup deserves. A fully fenced yard out back provides a great place for playtime, and there’s always a spot on the couch to hang out with us. We have raised rates due to high demand going into the summer. If you’re a returning client, please reach out and if there are any issues with cost, we can work something out. I work a 9-to-5 schedule from home and I tend to spend a lot of my free time there as well. My wife is also home most of the day, so we have plenty of time throughout the week to give your dog the attention they need! My fully fenced yard, quiet house and neighborhood are perfect for dogs who are looking to relax on their vacation, but I have plenty of energy to walk and play with them too. Your dog will be hosted by our Bernedoodle, Finn, who loves making new friends.
“Beatriz was amazing!!! She was so willing to help us in a bind for a last minute booking and we are so glad we met her! We have 2 chihuahua mixes; one is very anxious and can be a handful sometimes. He is quite fearful of new people, animals, and places. Within minutes of us dropping the dogs off, Beatriz texted me photos of both dogs playing in a pack with others and even snuggling up with her soaking up the attention! It was amazing. She is so patient and kind. Truly someone we would certainly trust with our dogs again!”
“Colin is by far the best dog sitter we have ever had. We messed up the daycare/overnight request and he was incredibly patient and understanding and extremely flexible. Highly recommend!”
“We have been using Beatriz & Hayden for almost three years. They have cared for all three of our dogs; each who had/have their own special needs or quirks. Beatriz & Hayden have graciously accommodated all of their needs with much love and kindness. Our boys love(d) going there and I always felt comfortable leaving them with these extremely capable sitters. They send great photos and updates during a visit and I was always able to get in touch with them in a very timely manner and always felt respected and acknowledged when communicating with them. These are only some of the reasons why we will continue to drive the extra distance just to book them as our pet sitters!”
“Deanna was great! She was able to take Mishka within 2 days notice and met with us first to make sure Mishka felt comfortable in her home! If we visit PA again with family we will use her and I will let any friends in my hometown know how great she was!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs off all types all my life. Growing up I’ve always had multiple dogs/pets from rabbits, dogs,cats, Guinea pigs, to caring and spending time with the family horses. Recently had to put my boxer down due to old age/ health issues and am not ready for another full time pet yet. That’s where me and my kids come in to watch/ walk/ play/ love and spend time with your pets while your away! I’m a stay at home mom with lots of time to care for your pet, keep your pet safe when you need it the most! I have a large front & back yard with lots of room to run, if your dog is not trained to stay I have a chain that runs the length of my yard. Also a kiddy pool if your dog likes to play in the water. Love to go walking on a daily basis and if it applies to your pet spend time at local dog parks!
“I brought my two fur babies to Pittsburgh, PA to be with me while I attended my class reunion. I found Ms. Carol on Rover. Immediately when I saw her face I knew she was the one I could trust my babies with. Ms. Carol, I’m so pleased to have met you. My babies were safe, looked after as if they were hers, attended to when needed, but most importantly, welcomed into her home by her fur babies.”
“Jessica was amazing right from the start to the end. Very professional yet very friendly. She took very good care of our dog and was always kept us posted. Our dog enjoyed and will be going back soon. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”
About: I just like being around puppies. Especially the smaller ones. I don't have any special skills and definitely not a professional. But I'm a responsible person and so you can trust me with your puppy. No cats though. I work one one week and one week off. On my off weeks I don't really do anything (yet). Filling the void. Free throughout the day during off weeks and not a single second during work week. I can walk your puppy, feed your puppy, ensure that it has company, play around with it, watch for signs of the puppy needing additional care.

I love taking care of them like they are my own as I don’t have any pets living with me now. I don’t work all summer long. I travel most weekends but am available during the week all day. I am off of work until August 1 and then my schedule doesn’t allow for much flexibility. I live in an apartment complex that is very dog friendly. There is plenty of room for dogs to use the bathroom and go for walks on the leash. I allow pets on my furniture but if that’s not what you do in your household I will implement the same rules you use. No matter how friendly your dog is, I won’t allow other dogs to approach since I don’t know many of the dogs in my complex. I do not hit dogs as a reprimand at any time so please tell me what methods you’re comfortable with me using instead if needed. Honestly, if there’s anything specific you can feel free to ask for it or question me if you need!
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 7 when we first got our pug, Loki. He's 14 now. We also got a bulldog, Chubb's. I've walked, fed, and bathed them ever since. I've also taken care of some of my friends pets. For example, I took care of two Australian cattle dogs, fed them, walked them, played with them, bathed them. For a while I lived with 2 great Danes so I am familiar with big dogs. I'm currently working part time, I am a full time college student but I can work around that schedule! I'm not working many hours at my other job, so I should be more available during the week. I always make sure they're within eye-sight. I would never let them run amuck. I'm going to follow everything you say so safety is no issue.
“Sarah is wonderful to work with. Great communication, accommodating, experienced and knowledgeable with animals, punctual, very friendly and definitely a dog lover! We have a 10 month old female German Shepherd who is sweet but very high energy and still learning discipline and manners. Sarah's interactions with her went very smoothly and Leia(our dog) adores her. 10 stars! :)”
About: My mom owns her own grooming shop. I’ve grown up with animals all my life. I have my own pets as well. My border collie is 12 years old now. I’ve also cared for other animals as well such as cats, hamsters, bunnies, and other small pets. I’m home from college for the summer and looking for an active, outside job. I’m decently flexible with my schedule from weekdays to weekends. I care for my own pets whenever I’m home from school. My border collie is always by my side whenever I am home whether that is outside on a walk or inside playing with toys. I love all animals. I will treat your pets just like my own and give them all the love and attention they need!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs/ cats my whole life. You’re animals would be in good hands and loved so much. They would never not be attended to I just love animals and giving them affection because they deserve that too. I can work any time you need me, they are more than welcome to stay at my place or I can travel to you I do drive and have my license! I do not have a yard because of the school apartment, but I will always walk your dog and go to a park near by and just have lots of fun with your fur babies.
About: I'm a huge animal lover with a love of love to give. I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs for about 10 years now whether it was through family or other. Your dog will be in the most incredible care when they are with me! I work part time and have a decent amount of time before and after work or on my days off to walk and check in on pets! I live in the country and there is a lot of land to take walks on. I also provide exercise and stimulation via outdoor toys.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life so I know what all needs to be done and parents have relied on me to take care of our animals. I have also dog/cat sat for my neighbors multiple times every year. I’m reliable to take them on walks, feed them, and all of that. I am a current student at IUP but only have one class a day with multiple online on top of two part time jobs but my schedule is very flexible so I’d be able to spend more time with your animals if you’d prefer! If your dogs need to be crated I can easily do that, if they need to be walked can do that. Whatever you’d need done for them Id be able to do since I’ve grown up with two german shepherds my whole life.

“I recently left my 1 year old lab with Jordan for 2 weeks while I was out of the country for vacation. She texted me updates and photos during my time away. My dog was calm and happy when I returned. I highly recommend Jordan.”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
“Our dog Taylor had another great weekend stay with Andrew and Karen! Andrew sent us lots of updates with photos and videos. Will be using them again soon for our week long vacation.”
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“Heather was awesome! She was very communicative during the whole time we were away and I really appreciated that! She was professional and I could tell that she really cares about the animals she watches 😊 she really made Rhea feel at home and we appreciated that so much!”
“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.”
“She was amazing with my babies. Constantly updating me on them, and loving them like her own. She went above and beyond with taking care of them and making sure my girl didn’t loose her lamby even repairing lamby for us.”
“Our boys had a great time with Barb! Her experienced background helped ease my own apprehension about leaving them with anyone other than family. She understood all their quirks in no time! She sent photos and messages daily that helped us as well! Getting ready to book their next stay!”
“We’ve boarded our dog a few times with Coralee now and our dog absolutely loves it. The anxiety she has when we leave has lessened significantly and she is so happy to have doggy friends to play with. We get pictures and/or videos everyday and it helps so much to see her happy and playing.”
“Brittany was great, she let me bring my dogs over before my scheduled date so the dogs would be a little more comfortable. She was great with the dogs and she responded quickly to any messages. I will be using her again in the future.”
“Emily and her family were wonderful caring for my dog Sunny! Emily treated Sunny as part of her family and was in constant communication with me to send pictures and updates. I had absolutely no concerns about Sunny while we were on vacation because I knew that Emily was giving Sunny so much love. I highly recommend her and will definitely have her care for Sunny in the future!!”
“Tara took great care of Peach while we were away for over two weeks. She even extended Peach's stay two days when we were stuck in Europe due to a cancelled flight. No hassle at all. I really appreciate her going above and beyond to maintain Peach's daily routine, even when it was really cold and snowy outside. Peach also had a great time playing with the other dogs that were at her home for daycare. We enjoyed receiving picture updates from her. Peach came home happy and healthy, and better trained than we left her! I have already rebooked stays with her and will continue to do so as long as we need her.”
“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.”
“Ashlyn was great! She made the the dropoff so easy, and we had no issues. She was great with sending pictures, and eased my worries big time. This was the first time we've left our little guy in someone else's care, and I was very nervous, but she did a fantastic job walking lots and taking care of him. We would definitely have her watch him again 😁✋”
“Listens to details from little to big to ensure a happy and safe environment. Takes time to engage with them and ensure they’re happy. Daily communication and updates. Friendly pets to engage with mine. Will book again when needed. Very thankful for a reliable sitter like Jennifer.”
“Rebecca was awesome. Great communication. She has very friendly pups to keep your pup company. A very nice family that will take extra special care of dog. 10/10 would use again”
