“My dog doesn't like to be away from home, but Rhea makes her feel comfortable and takes excellent care of all her needs, also during the recent heat wave. Sage was happy and in great shape when I returned after a longer trip. While I was away, Rhea kept me up-to-date on how Sage was doing, which is very helpful for peace of mind. I will always ask Rhea when I need help with dog sitting. I highly recommend her.”
“Amy was fantastic - we instantly felt comfortable with her husband and her (and, more importantly, so did the dog!). She was very detail oriented, sent pictures throughout Champ's short stay and made sure Champ got plenty of exercise. I also appreciated her policy not to take multiple dogs at once. We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”
“This was our second time boarding our dog with Yuiko, this time for 11 days. Yuiko is wonderful about staying in touch - we received photos like 3 times a day and our guy looked so happy. Her house has a large outdoor space and the dogs are always running around back there and having fun. Yuiko is very responsive and follows our instructions closely. Will absolutely book again!”
“Jennifer is truly the best! Communicative and great with my dog. Also has a fun back yard and great pets- my dog always comes home nice and tired!”
“I am very anxious about leaving my dog with anyone and I felt very calm and good about leaving Rosie with Christin. She was clearly very attentive. Sent me lots of updates and photos, which I always really appreciate. She gave Rosie all kinds of loving attention. I could not ask for a better situation when I have to leave my beloved dog under someone else’s care.”
“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
“Zyiana is an excellent sitter. Sent daily updates and pictures of my dog. He seemed very happy during his stay. I highly recommend and will book again!”
“Mary was an incredible sitter. She shared daily updates, photos and videos so I was assured that my dog, Lyle, was not only being cared for, but being spoiled! Lyle got multiple daily walks, special treats, toys, and ample snuggles. I cannot recommend Mary and her husband enough! Can’t wait to rebook with them next time we need care for our sweet boy!”
“Chazz is great! Zelda is happy and calm when I pick her up, and my mind is at ease knowing that she’s being taken care of by someone that’s kind, friendly and professional.”
“Melanie was amazing!! I really appreciated that she asked lots of questions about my two boys because it gives me peace of mind that their doggy sitter will take the best care of them. Which was actually what happened! She sent lots of photos of updates during the stay. Her dog Pippa was also so sweet and got along great with Mr and Captain. We had a change of plans at the end and Melanie was so helpful in accommodating us. Would definitely recommend her to everyone!”
“Rebecca took great care of Lula and kept us updated daily with photos and information. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. We really appreciate her experience and if she would have Lula back we would love to call upon her again.”
“Mygan was amazing! She took such great care of my Charlie! She was so kind and thoughtful. She sent pics daily like I asked and she even did well with his medication. Thank you so much I will definitely rebook!”
“This is my first time using this website. It was last minute. Zenith accepted my request. Zenith is an excellent sitter, she took great care of my princess. She keep communicating with updates. I would highly recommend her, and would certainly use her services in the future. Thank you Zenith.”
“I can’t recommend Alexandra enough! She has been taking care of my dog, Milo, for quite some time now, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. She and family truly treat Milo like he’s their own. He’s always so well cared for, loved, and honestly spoiled in the best way possible. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and it shows in everything she does. She’s reliable, kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated, which means so much. Milo is always happy to see her, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
“Chelsea had another great visit with Kerry, she is awesome! She provides regular updates along with photos. I highly recommend her and will continue to utilize her services.”
“Bryce was incredible! This was Thor’s first time away from us and I was just as anxious as he was. Bryce did a wonderful job of putting us both at ease. The photos and updates during the day was greatly appreciated. Thank you Bryce!”
“Ginger was amazing with Penny! Penny can be a bit anxious when staying with new people but she made her feel right at home from the start. She sent regular updates and made sure she had plenty of exercise. I felt really comfortable leaving penny with her and would highly recommend her to others!”
“Jake was absolutely fantastic!! It was our first time ever using Rover and he made us feel very at ease dropping our dogs off. Would highly recommend Jake and will definitely be using him again!”
“Spot has been to Yulia and Kevin's house for both daycare and for a weekend boarding. She had the best time! We received multiple updates throughout the daycare stay as well as the weekend, and it looked like they were always doing something fun! She came home happily tired :) We will definitely be using them again for both daycare and boarding!”
“We are really happy with Emelie’s services and communication with us during our dog’s stay. We appreciated a flexible pick up time when we were slightly delayed getting back into town. Highly recommend!”

About: I’m a WFH cat mom of 2 who is looking to spoil local cats and dogs in my area 👩💻 Available any day of the week with WiFi I work from home full-time so I’m available at a moments notice. So long as there’s wifi available I have my own VPN and laptop, I’m ready to go! I have experience with cats with special diets and needs as my own have that. I will take care of yours as I would my own. I would prefer to keep my dog care to dog walking or drop in visits for now!
About: I've been earning the favor of felines since I was a child, taming feral barn cats on the farm as soon as I could walk. Beyond my own furbabies and catsitting for friends, I have volunteered with a neighborhood TNR program in West Philly, held a job at the Cats Protection Adoption Centre in London, and currently foster whichever darlings and demons need a safe place to land. I find great joy in providing enrichment and comfort to cats, and I have quite a lot of experience in reading their body language so that I can best respect their boundaries and attend to their needs.
“Emily has watched my fur babies on several occasions now and has become my go-to sitter. She is closeby, reliable and has been extremely accommodating since both cats have been in and out of the vet with issues lately. She has administered medication and has been available on short notice.”
“Sean did a great job with my cat! He followed all my instructions carefully and she was well cared for. Would definitely book again and recommend to anyone :)”
“My kitties loved Tina! She kept me updated with photos and was easy to communicate with before during and after the booking. We would 100% recommend her as a sitter and look forward to booking again. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was caring for the kitties.”
“Stephanie is the best! She really loves the cats and it’s clear she enjoys taking care of them. Her care makes the process of traveling and leaving them behind so much easier.”
“Demmy was a very happy cat when I got back. I was so afraid that he would be sad. Elizabeth did a wonderful job taking care of Demmy while I was away for a week on vacation. She kept me updated, and sent pictures. When I asked her to say more about his daily routine, she immediately started texting more details. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone without hesitation!”
“So thankful for such an attentive, caring, and responsible sitter. Feels better to leave our cat knowing that she is in great hands. Thank you so much!”
“Amy was so kind and thoughtful when watching my cat Reggie! She is so down to earth and a total animal person. She gave me updates every day when she’d drop by with photos so I wouldn’t worry :) I highly recommend her for anyone who needs someone trustworthy to watch their pets!”
“Madeline was great with all 3 of my cats! She provided communication throughout the weekend, sent me lots of pictures which I really appreciated and even took the time to wash all of my cats dishes. Would highly recommend and am planning on rebooking in the near future!”
“She did an excellent job taking care of my 2 cats. They were happy with her for every visit and always gave me updates, she seems to take great care for both of them and I would love to make her my cat sitter again!”
“Nava was so caring and attentive toward my fur babies. They went out of their way to spend extra time with my kitties and sent me helpful details about their demeanor and behavior during visits. Really felt like my cats were in such good hands.”
“Abigail was incredible! She took my last minute request for drop-in visits and took such great care of my cat. I couldn’t recommend her more highly! Thanks Abigail!”
“I had a wonderful experience with her! I have an older cat, so I was a little nervous about leaving her, but she made me feel completely at ease. She kept me updated with thoughtful details each visit, and I always felt like I could reach out if I needed anything. She truly went above and beyond and showed genuine care for both my cat and my peace of mind. It was clear she wasn’t just checking off tasks—she really cared about making sure my cat was happy and comfortable. I would highly recommend her and definitely book again!”
“Jeffrey was kind and responsible with my dog Oso. I also appreciate his patience and understanding when there was an issue with getting into my home for the visit (I accidentally had forgotten to replace the batteries in my garage door opener so had to direct him where to find a spare key). Thank you!!”
“Emily was fantastic! So loving with my babies and flexible when I requested an extra check on them in the middle of my trip. Knowledgeable and helpful with my Kiki’s asthma and provided me education and suggestions! My babies are happy and were well cared for, and I felt at ease my whole vacation ❤️”
“Shelby was great! She sent photos, made friends with our brave cat, and worked to earn trust with our shy cat. Went above and beyond by getting down on her belly to take a photo of our shy cat under the bed each day! We hope to hire Shelby again in the future!”
“Christina is the best! Honestly couldn’t ask for a better person to help with our cat. Christina is always super thoughtful and patient, shares updates and is great to work with!!”

“Cody had a nice time with Rhea and Argo (her dog). He’s pretty un-dog friendly, ignores them mostly, but Rhea took good care of him and Arlo gave him his space😂. Excellent communication. We have already booked with Rhea again!”
“Incredibly friendly and flexible. I had a different sitter drop out last minute, and these two were able to watch my mini shnoxie last minute. I got TONS of photos and videos, including one that looked like a professional portrait. These two are great and I will certainly be using them again”
“Wonderful experience for my dog Harper. And Kristen was very thoughtful, responsive and helpful with everything surrounding the visit. Harper looks forward to her next stay. Highly recommended!!”
“Don’t hesitate to book with Samantha!! I was new to the neighborhood and had a very busy week, and she just made everything so much easier by providing reliable daily care for my pup! She is incredibly flexible, kind, and communicative which is very appreciated. She is also great at sending pictures and video updates :) I feel great about leaving my dog with her. 11/10!”
About: I lead with positive reinforcement and animal advocacy. They're always telling us what they need, it’s just up to us to listen. Regardless of their needs, I adapt to their unique personality to ensure they're safe, comfortable, and happy. And, of course, I make sure to snap plenty of pictures to keep you informed of their stay! Pet care is my full-time focus! I'm always out and about keeping my own dog active and love welcoming an extra guest. Whiskey is a Canine Good Citizen, or as I like to call it, a Certified Good Boy. At 51lbs, he's gentle, polite, and completely content doing his own thing. Because he is so calm and respects boundaries, he's great at helping smaller and/or nervous pups feel comfortable. I also have two cats and understand the important balance of play with personal space. I live in a very safe area in an apartment with a park nearby. I have crates for boarding if needed but do my best to be home with them 100% of the time. There are plenty of blankets for cuddling and snuggles are welcome! For drop in visits, I bring the same dedicated care to your home. My goal is to keep their routine intact so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also treat your home as I would want someone to treat mine, ensuring it remains clean, secure, and exactly as you left it.
“Yuhan was amazing. Her communication was awesome, she replied to all my messages so quickly. She was also very very loving to my fur baby. I would highly recommend!”
About: Hi! We’re Electra and Crescent. We love travel, food and animals! 🐾 We’re lifelong pet parents who have shared our home with cats and dogs for decades. We currently live with three cats of our own (2 belonged to my late mother) Kiki the senior Russian blue, Helena the toothless full figured queen and Charles Mr. Humpty Dumpty. We genuinely love caring for animals and understand the unique needs of picky eaters, seniors, energetic and active animals or pets who prefer calm, low-stress environments. We call Charles our “special needs baby” since he is neutered but loves to hump his cat toy (Matilda) Kiki was my mom’s cat who is a senior and has IBD aside from her IBD (which we are managing) she’s a very quiet, laid back cat that likes her quality time. Helena was my mom’s cat and talk about food focused! Despite having only 2 bottom teeth this thick beauty don’t let that stop her! 🐾 I’m Electra and I’m available most of the day. My husband Crescent works Monday–Friday during the day (usually finished by late afternoon). This gives us excellent flexibility for pet sitting: • Boarding at our home: We can typically do pet pickups early evenings or anytime on weekends. • Drop-offs: You can bring your pet anytime. We can also do pickups for you Monday–Friday after 5 pm or anytime on weekends. Since I’m home I can provide personalized, attentive care for your furry family members. Whether it’s longer walks, extra play sessions, or simply quiet companionship for pets that get lonely, we tailor our care to what each animal needs. We board cats (up to 3) or small-medium dogs (up to 2) at a time. We have a dedicated spare bedroom that works beautifully as a cozy “cat hotel” or “doggie retreat” — complete with a litter box, cat tree, twin bed, toys and TV for background noise. Your pets get complete free-roaming access in this room with no crates. Privacy with one family at a time to ensure a calm, stress-free environment for your pet with access to ring camera for boarding stays. We’ll ensure that your cats have a freshly clean litter box daily, interaction multiple hours a day, great window view for birdwatching and followed feeding routine. Your dogs will have plenty of time outside, I’m available and can provide multiple walks and engagement throughout the day, with comfortable indoor space for relaxation and eating routines. You’ll have peace of mind knowing your furry babies are safe and in a controlled space. We offer Ring camera access so you can check in anytime, plus daily text updates with photos and details about how their day went. When we visit your home, we’re extremely mindful of your pet’s normal routines. We’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and playtime if they crave it, or respectful space if they prefer quiet time — always with their comfort and happiness as our top priority.
About: I have rehabiliated and adopted out 100s of dogs over 20 years volunteering. I have a strong interest in animal behaviorism and house training. Over many years I have developed a pack oriented training and boarding system that helps establish a very stable and productive social environment for dogs. Providing a quiet and comfortable environment that allows me to reprogram feral and abused pups to allow them to be adopted. I have a structured and fun environment with a house customized for "Good Karma" dog living. We have an enclosed yard access by a doggy door. Outside hammocks and lighting. Open area in living room with many beds, toys, and sunny spot.s Yes we have a tennis ball room now. Yes I have toured farms with Temple Grandin herself and she agrees that we both speak to the animals and that makes us human. REQUIREMENTS: Your dog must get along with other dogs with no excessive food or asset guarding. Everything else I can accept. Expect your dog to be living with at least one foster dog and up to 3 rover dogs depending on schedule. I send many updates and have an interest in working on socializing behavior and enrichment during the stay. Taking care of my pets is like caring for family. I have routines set for fosters and care as needed. Pet care is a way of life here. I have been volunteering for a foster group for 20 years. I give medications as instructed and pay attention to the pets needs. I take of
“Valerie and David did an excellent job with Leo's house sitting. They were on time and followed all the instructions. Leo loved them. I am looking forward to have more pet sitting with them.”
“Yuiko is a terrific pet sitter! She gave me Milo’s update very often. This was so helpful for me have peaceful mind as this was my first experience with Yuiko.”
“Melody was absolutely amazing! I initially booked a last-minute dog-sitting appointment, and she accommodated me with no issues. She kept me updated throughout the day, letting me know when my pup went potty or had a meal, and even helped with crate training. I noticed positive changes in my pup—he was much calmer upon pick-up, which showed how well he was cared for. Melody was incredibly reliable, watching my pup for a full two weeks, and I never once had to worry about his well-being. She even assisted with food changes, which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend Melody to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter!”
About: Hello! I have worked with animals all my life and realized how much of a passion I have for them! I have worked at an animal rescue, dog shelter, and have become a foster for over 200+ dogs and puppies. Currently work from home full time and care for my dogs and puppies. My day typically starts around 6:45am/7:45(at the latest) I am able to walk them, take them to my neighborhood dog park, do training, socializing and of course play/loving time. Since i am home all day i do offer to take non-potty trained dogs i will just need a heads up that they are not potty trained yet. I have had alot of experience with different temperaments, health conditions, behavioral issues, and breeds please give me notice ahead of time and I will accommodate for what will be best for you fur baby. I do have 2 dogs of my own which are very dog friendly of all sizes and ages. If you are not comfortable with your baby cross interacting NO PROBLEM! They will be in a complete different room and will get plenty of water, walks, potty breaks, and play time! I currently work from home so I am home all day to care for any and all fur babies. I currently run off of a tight schedule starting between 6:45-7:30am going up until around 11pm typically. I make sure each dog is introduced properly. Everyone must be walked on a leash and collar and/or harness at all times outside of my home. Everyone is fed in a crate or separate room unless litter mates.
“Kiara was great! She sent me plenty of updates throughout the day and I could tell Butters was enjoying himself in all of the videos and pictures. Will definitely be using her again for future dog sitting needs!”
About: Hi! I’m Regina — a lifelong dog person (and former lawyer/tech executive) who understands what it’s like to travel and need care you can truly trust. I used to worry about whether my dogs were being fed well, getting enough exercise, and feeling safe and loved — so that’s exactly what I prioritize for every dog I board. I’m based in Chestnut Hill with a small, secure yard that’s especially helpful for older or mobility-limited dogs who need easy outdoor access. For active pups, we get outside for real walks and adventure time — I’m a runner and love long walks, so dogs in my care get more than quick potty breaks. I also build in enrichment and calm downtime (yes, I’ll play music for dogs) so they feel settled while you’re away. I’m safety-first, detail-oriented, and communicative, and I’ll send regular updates so you can relax knowing your dog is flourishing. Crate comfort: I have crates available if your dog is crate-trained, and I’m also happy to board dogs who aren’t — I’ll follow your routine and preferences. Optional add-on: Drop-off and pick-up are available for an additional fee. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently on sabbatical and prioritize daycare and overnight boarding. My days already include multiple outdoor breaks and longer walks, plus plenty of calm downtime at home, so dogs get a consistent rhythm of exercise, enrichment, meals, and rest. I use set drop-off and pick-up windows to keep care structured, safe, and predictable for every dog. I care for pets in my home only, where I can keep the environment calm, consistent, and closely supervised. I follow your instructions for feeding, routines, and any medications, and I build each day around regular potty breaks, outdoor time, and real walks (not just quick bathroom trips). I have a small yard for easy access—especially helpful for older or mobility-limited dogs—and I also prioritize enrichment and downtime so dogs feel settled. I have crates available for crate-trained dogs, and I’m comfortable caring for dogs who aren’t crate trained as well. I’ll send updates so you always know how your dog is doing.
“I needed a sitter on very short notice, and Zyi (sorry if I spelled your name wrong 😓) was incredibly accommodating! She was quick to respond to messages, kept me updated throughout the stay, and made me feel completely at ease. My dog is also on medication, and Zyi was very attentive, making sure to double-check all of the instructions with me. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being and comfort. I had a great experience and would absolutely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I used to take care of my son's dogs for many years, as well as dogs from our neighbors. Our house has great temperatures inside and outside I am at home most of the time, since I work from home. I can spent a lot of time with pets. Our neighborhood (Manayunk) is very safe and not noisy. I can host pets, we have a large patio. I have security cameras un our fenced patio. I also have a doggie door, so pets can exit/enter on their own.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10! I’ve always had 3-4 pets at a time so I understand the high/low maintenance, the picky eaters, and the ones that need medical assistance. I personally have dogs that have medical issues and have to make sure their needs are met constantly. I’ve worked on a farm so I have great experience with all types of animals. Neighbors and friends rely on me #1 to walk, play, feed, and take care of their pets. I currently work part time. I will have plenty of time during the day to play, feed, walk your pups! I’m an early bird so if you’re looking for someone early in the mornings, I’m your girl! I will follow whatever your protocol is for your pets! I want them to feel as comfortable as possible with me. I look forward to meeting all of your furry friends!
“Elizabeth is very sweet and responsible and my little dog Charlie absolutely loved her. She's also very flexible. I had to change the time for a dog walk and it was no problem at all. I highly recommend her!”
“Lauren is an exceptional Rover! She walked our dog Gracie every week the better part of six months, even through crazy snow and rain — she was always punctual, highly communicative and proactive about sharing times she was unavailable well in advance, and super sweet with our dog who loved seeing her every day. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”
“Jeff is a wonderful walker for our dog Jesse. He's prompt and super responsive on messages, and is willing to work with you on your schedule. Jesse comes back happy from her walks, and I'm really happy to have Jeff's help.”
“Danielle had been great with Okami. He's usually very reserved and defensive with new people. But he warned up to her in just two walks. Bonus is that she takes tons of photos.”
About: 📍Philadelphia + surrounding areas. I’m not your average sitter—I go the extra paw! I’ll treat every pet like my own furry family. 🐶 Whether your pup needs a brisk walk or a belly rub break, I tailor each visit to their paw-sonality. 🐱 I’m the purr-fect match for cats too—playful, patient, and totally tuned into their moods. 🏠 I’m a clean, respectful house guest who keeps things tidy and tails wagging. 💊 Got a senior pet or one with meds? No prob-llama! I’m experienced and calm under pressure. 📸 And yes, you’ll get plenty of photo pupdates and meow-ments while you’re away! I work in hospitality and am busy in the office but happy to stop by before and/or after work + the weekends. Before work would be 6am-8am and evenings would be 6pm-8pm. I won't be able to bring pets into my home because of my dog. However, in another person's home I'll be sure to listen to their instruction and try to best meet the needs of their pet.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and have experience fostering puppies, training my own dog, and caring for dogs of all ages. I’m comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, as well as administering medications when needed. I’ll be sure to take a ton of photos of your pets and send them to you!! I work from home with a flexible schedule, meaning your pet gets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. With a little notice, I’m happy to work with your schedule and keep your pet’s routine consistent. When caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I’ll leave everything clean and exactly as I found it, so you can return to a happy, cared for pet and a home that looks just as you left it. If your pet is staying in my home, they’ll have access to a private, fully fenced dog park that’s rarely used, giving them plenty of space to play, explore, and burn off energy. I’m happy to spend as much time out there with your dog as they enjoy, making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and fun.
“Anthony helped with walks for our two dogs over a long weekend and did great with them! He was easy to communicate with, reliable and professional. Would recommend!”
“Katie is a fantastic dog walker! She takes great care of Tyson every time, sends photos during the walks, and keeps me updated consistently. Her communication is excellent and it's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. Highly recommend her!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom to three wonderful cats, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years, including walking dogs, caring for cats during vacations, and looking after puppies and dogs with all types of different personalities. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving oral medication to my own cats, and providing lots of exercise, playtime, cuddles, and photo updates. I’ve also worked with anxious pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and helping them feel secure. Whether your pet loves adventure or prefers a quiet companion, I’ll care for them so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re getting lots of love, attention, and probably a few extra belly rubs (if they’re into that!) Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work full-time, but I work from home twice a week, which gives me extra flexibility to provide additional attention and care during those days. I’m also available for morning, evening, and weekend walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. When I’m caring for your pet, I’ll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I’ll always communicate clearly and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, respect your home as if it were my own, and take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether that means giving medication, sticking to a feeding schedule, or providing extra patience for an anxious pet, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve been on Rover for the past 6 years and I have also had personal experience with taking care of dogs for about ten years. I have made house visits to my neighbors to care for their dogs while they were away and my family also has a dog of that I have taken care of for the past 12 years. I have always been an animal lover and I love to help in whatever ways that I can. Being able to combine my love for animals with my love for helping people by caring for their pets seems like the perfect part-time job to me. I’ve lived in Oak Park for a few years now so I’ve gotten to know the area well and I love getting to meet all the different animals around! (P.S. I’ll also take great pictures of your pets to send while you’re away) I am available full-time during the week and weekends and I have a pup of my own who would love to make some new friends in the area! I live in an apartment with a lot of parks nearby that I would plan on taking your pet. I have a very friendly pup of my own that loves to play as well.
“Leah was great with Hazel! Hazel is a shy and timid dog, and Leah was very patient and sweet with her. It’s clear that Leah has a lot of experience, skill, and expertise at caring for dogs. I was confident that Hazel was in good hands. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“I am very anxious about leaving my dog with anyone and I felt very calm and good about leaving Rosie with Christin. She was clearly very attentive. Sent me lots of updates and photos, which I always really appreciate. She gave Rosie all kinds of loving attention. I could not ask for a better situation when I have to leave my beloved dog under someone else’s care.”
“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
“Chazz is great! Zelda is happy and calm when I pick her up, and my mind is at ease knowing that she’s being taken care of by someone that’s kind, friendly and professional.”
“Melanie was amazing!! I really appreciated that she asked lots of questions about my two boys because it gives me peace of mind that their doggy sitter will take the best care of them. Which was actually what happened! She sent lots of photos of updates during the stay. Her dog Pippa was also so sweet and got along great with Mr and Captain. We had a change of plans at the end and Melanie was so helpful in accommodating us. Would definitely recommend her to everyone!”
“Rebecca took great care of Lula and kept us updated daily with photos and information. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. We really appreciate her experience and if she would have Lula back we would love to call upon her again.”
“Chelsea had another great visit with Kerry, she is awesome! She provides regular updates along with photos. I highly recommend her and will continue to utilize her services.”

“We are really happy with Emelie’s services and communication with us during our dog’s stay. We appreciated a flexible pick up time when we were slightly delayed getting back into town. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was amazing with our dog Rufus. She was sending pictures/videos throughout the weekend, so we knew he was a happy boy! She was super accommodating with our pick up time when we had a flight delay, she even had back up food for your pup if something like this happens! We will definitely be asking Jennifer to watch our Rufus again!”

“What an amazing dog sitter! It’s clear our puppy loved her time with Donte; shes been a little mopey since she’s been back home lol Donte would make sure to give us a peace of mind since it was our first time boarding our puppy girl; he made sure to send us pictures and videos of our pup while we were away. Very good communicator and we hope to have him as our dog sitter in the future! Highly recommend Donte!”
“Juntae was very kind, communicative, and professional. I sent him a last minute care request which he was happy to accommodate. Pick up and drop off were stress-free and Quinn seemed to enjoy her time with him as well. Highly recommend!!”
“Samantha was great! Very knowledgeable about dogs. She sent me a picture of her daughter reading Milo a book. Adorable! She kept me updated about Milo and informed me of a health condition with Milo. Very much appreciated!”
