“Annie took great care of our 15 year old chihuahua! This was our first River experience and our first lowly dog requires medication so we were a little nervous. We appreciated the updates and pictures as well as the meet and greet ahead of boarding. I cannot recommend Annie enough.”
“We left our basset hound with Skylar for a few days, and she was fantastic! She was professional, kept us updated with frequent pictures, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our pup came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Skylar to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Evgeniya, was the perfect host for my fur baby Sammie. She is very nurturing and sweet. She took lots of pictures and always kept me updated. Sammie felt comfortable with her and her home. It is great to feel your baby is being well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Evgeniya.”
“Ann was absolutely wonderful. She left me at ease with my high energy pup. She made sure to send pictures and keep my updated throughout the day on their adventures. I would highly recommend and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands 💖 Grateful for her help!”
“The hosts were amazing with Kimchi! She has a lot of energy and they took her out on walks and to the park to get some of it out. My girl was very happy and well cared for, will be rebooking again, no complaints. A very loving family to my fur baby”
“Kristen and her family treated Kiko so well during his overnight stay. They took him on a hike, and cared for him like their own dogs. They sent regular photo updates and he came home tired and happy. Thank you so much. Will definitely be using their services again:”
“There is a reason we keep coming back to Katy! Our dogs are so well taken care of that we can focus on our trip and family without worrying too much. And it’s like she knows when you want a picture of your pups!”
“This was my first time using Karynne and having my cats stay at someone else’s home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. My cats are usually quite anxious, and one is diabetic, making new situations and strangers particularly challenging. Karynne demonstrated exceptional patience and a genuine commitment to making them feel comfortable. She went above and beyond to gain their trust, and her consistent updates and adorable photos truly put my mind at ease. It’s clear she has a special touch with animals, and I’ll definitely be using her services again! ☺️”
“Madeleine and Charlie took our pup on short notice, they noticed that her vaccinations were past due, and even set up a appointment for us at Banfield pet hospital. Madeleine and Charlie spend a lot of time interacting with their guest dogs, lots of play and walks. Madeleine sent us many photos and videos via text message every day. When we picked up our pup she was relaxed and content. We will be using Madeleine and Charlie boarding services in the future.”
“Thank you so much to Sarah! She was absolutely awesome! She communicated so openly and willingly with us while she kept our boy, Kylo, for over a week. He has separation anxiety and this was his first time being away from us without getting sick. And it was all because she made sure to take complete care of his needs and made him feel loved enough that he barely even missed us. He came home happy as a clam and healthy as when we dropped him off! If you need someone to keep your dog, call Sarah. She’s awesome!”
“Patti is a wonderful, caring doggie sitter! I could tell Knox was right at home with her from the get go. She sent lots of photos during the weekend to let us know how Knox was doing, and of course, those pictures made my day. Patti always replied to questions right away and was super easy to talk to. She even had a doggie goodie bag and report card waiting when I picked him up :). Overall, a perfect first Rover experience. I would highly recommend her as your next rover sitter. Both Knox and I hope to have her dog sit again! Thank you Patti from the Liu's!”
“Jillian was so great with my fur babies and was attentive to their needs! ! I really recommend her for your pets needs. Thank you Jillian! You really helped us while away and greatly appreciate you. Will definitely contact you again in the future! Cuddles and Lily say thank you ??”
“Andrew was awesome! Sent me photo updates everyday. My dog came back happy and it always makes me feel better that they are taken care of in a home instead of a loud overwhelming dog boarding place.”

“Russell took good care of our dog Charlie and did a nice check-in with him when we had a longer day. He is a calm personality and was super communicative, sending us a couple of pictures and letting us know when he was there and gone. Highly recommend and hope to have Russell help out again.”
“Rachel was great and you can see has a big heart for dogs. Professional and on time. Im sure my little guy will love having her attention. Highly recommend...”
“Courtney was professional and communicative, which made me feel safe leaving my cat Kimchi under her care for the longest period we’ve been gone since getting her. Getting pictures and little descriptions gave me peace of mind abroad. Thank you Courtney!!”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I searched for the person with the most reviews and highest rating combination and found Genniver. Her rating and reviews are well-earned. I have six cats and only two that were socialized with anyone outside my household, but after 2 days she had already bonded with 5 of them, and she was able to coax my last holdout into warming up to her on the third day. Genniver shared loads of photos and videos of my cats while I was across the country and she really set my mind at ease. She was also very responsible with applying thyroid medication to my oldest kitty, and sent me videos of that as well. I would recommend her to anyone in need of care for your cats, she is very good at this. Even if your cats are less social, she'll be scratching them behind the ears before you know it. Thank you Genniver!”
“Megan was amazing! She was so loving to our cat. She took extra time to make sure Gracie felt loved while we were gone. This was the first time we used Rover to take care of our cat and I won’t hesitate to use them again.”
“Tara took great care of my kitties! She was even able to connect with our timid Charlie, which is an accomplishment! We’ll definitely request Tara for our next cat sitting needs.”
“Erica has been caring for my cats while I've been away for a few weeks. I feel that she truly cares about them. She has sent me the nicest photos. I had never seen my cat that relaxed before as she is a very anxious cat. Thank you Erica!!”
“Destanie was such a great sitter. My fur babies automatically warmed up to her kind spirit. I was away for two weeks for Xmas and returned to the sweetest card and new cat toys for my fur babies. I really appreciate her so much for keeping them company while I was away. I will definitely be booking her again!!! 10 stars if I could.”
“Aimee is the epitome of an animal lover, which makes her a dream to have watch your animals. She is intuitive to their needs, as well as mine - she sends pictures and updates that help to ease any and all anxieties about leaving pets for multiple days. I’m so grateful for her care and look forward to working with her again!”
“John was wonderful a kept my babies company while I was out of town for a family emergency. They warmed up to him instantly. He sent plenty of photos and eased my worries. I really appreciate him taking my request so last minutes. He went above and beyond.”
“I couldn't ask for a better experience with Tim. He was attentive, responsive, and carried out my (borderline unreasonable) instructions to the letter. My two cats took to him right away. (They trust nearly nobody; I was amazed by their immediate comfort with a new person.) Tim provided me with daily updates and I had no worries about their care while I was away. In short, Tim and Rover made me able to enjoy my vacation. Tim is my go-to for future sitting, full stop.”
“Fantastic. Samantha is fantastic! She’s punctual, warm, and incredibly easy to communicate with. I immediately felt comfortable which is saying a lot for me as Ace’s mom. She’s also very responsible and respectful of my home. Ace loves her and gets sooooo excited to see her on walk days!! Don’t hesitate to contact Samantha—your search is over!”
“Susan was great! We appreciated her watching our 2 dogs and how communicative she was. She even went the extra mile in cleaning up a little mess and bringing our packages in. 5 stars and will definitely use her again!!”
About: I have grown up with cats since I was little. Like any animal they have a special place in my heart. I am reliable at cleaning litter boxes, following routines and showing up on time. My goal is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“I can’t say enough good about Preslea!! She jumped in to help me last minute, and took fantastic care of my cats!! She went above and beyond her duties!! I’ll definitely be using her in the future!!”

“Katy is amazing with our boys and they always get excited when we tell them we're going to see Ms. Katy--they love spending time with her! Katy is not only super nice but super professional as well and sends tons of pics and updates every day.”
“The host was absolutely wonderful—super friendly, warm, and easy to communicate with from the very first message. She made everything feel seamless and stress-free. Even with my dog Reese and her cats, there were no issues at all. I’d highly recommend her and would happily stay again! Thank you so much!”
“Jessica has been an absolute BLESSING! She took care of my two doggies while I was in town. She sent updates often, was very flexible and I can’t even express how thankful I am! She’s very sweet my girls love her so much. Thank you so so so much 🙏🏻”
“Sarah was an amazing pet sitter for my bulldog, Canelo! She was quick to respond, very courteous, and incredibly responsible. I felt at ease knowing my pup was in such caring hands. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter!”
“Julia and her family were wonderful caregivers to our Hutson. The second day we dropped him off he leaped out of the car excited to see them! Julia was incredibly gracious and flexible, sent us pictures and updates reassuring us that he was doing well and I would highly recommend her! We are from out of town and plan to exclusively leave Hutson in her care when we visit our son.”
“Wen was wonderful with our whoodle! Our dog enjoyed playing with her dogs and running around her backyard. Wen was very accommodating with our schedule. We will definitely be calling on her again whenever we need day camp!”
“Brian and his wife were wonderful. My pup is very attached to me but she had a good time with them for doggy daycare. Even though it was just for the day they sent me picture updates and were super responsive to any questions or comments. She also came home cleaner then when she got there. ? I would highly recommend and will use them again if I’m in town. Thanks so much!”
“Leaving Joshua with Adriana readily put me at ease. Joshua is a sweet boy but we were worried how he would adjust, since he has dementia and familiar things are most comforting to him. He looked happy from the beginning, and I think he wanted to stay when I came to pick him up. I’m really happy to find some reliable help with taking care of him!”
“As always, Sarah, Nick and the entire family are wonderful with our Romeo. They are incredibly communicative and are dog lovers. This is one of the few places where we know that Romeo will not be super anxious. We live in Austin and will opt to fly out of San Antonio when possible so that we can leave Romeo with Sarah.”

“Russell is always on time and the moment my puppies met him they loved him! He’s accommodating to requests and always makes sure to let me know any changes. I’m happy to have him as the regular walker for my pups!”
About: I grew up with all types of different pets in the household from dogs to guinea pigs to birds and even shrimp! So, naturally, I came to love for all animals! Loving them means to also care for them, so I had to provide care for each animal making sure they were properly fed, cleaned, and had a safe environment to sleep. What you can expect from me: * Quick responses * Reliable scheduling * Updates/photos during visits * Respect for your home and routine I currently work part time and go to school full time, but I still have plenty of time to dedicate to the loved animals of San Antonio. I promise to provide the absolute best care to your pets and to your homes. I will make sure your pets are kept safe and properly cared for. I also walk my dogs all the time, so I know proper handling and care when walking a dog.
“Samantha is very responsible and careful about her communication. You can tell a real love of animals and people are at the root of her choice to do dog walking. I think you will appreciate her services.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life—growing up with big dogs and now sharing my home with three little ones of my own. I genuinely love caring for dogs and spending time with them—it’s second nature to me. One of my favorite things is seeing how excited and happy dogs get when it’s time for a walk! I also have experience giving medication, including pills, thanks to my schnauzer who has allergies. Whether it’s a quick visit or a fun stroll around the neighborhood, I’m here to give your pup the love and attention they deserve. I’m retired Air Force and loving this chance to spend more time with the animals I adore. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits during late mornings, lunch hours, and early afternoons on weekdays. Weekends are a bit more limited, but I’m still happy to help when I can! Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a quick potty break, or some one-on-one attention, I’m here to make their day a little brighter. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a dog owner with a lively pack of three, I’m very experienced in managing multiple dogs and understanding different personalities and energy levels.

I always follow your instructions, practice safe leash handling, and make sure every pet feels calm, loved, and secure. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and the peace of mind that your furry friend is in experienced, caring hands.

About: I’m a dedicated pet sitter with years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. Reliable, loving and trusting to ensure you have peace of mind when you are away from home. I’m available most hours in the day to take care of your baby/babies. Besides running few errands here and there, they won’t be alone for long. I’m capable of keeping your animals on their normal routine with feedings, medications etc. with exceptional love for all animals. Besides Snakes!! Can’t do snakes!!!
“Here's the thing...Mandy is awesome! She wanted to do a Meet and Greet with our pup, before setting up a walking appointment. Our Border Collie is a shy girl when it comes to strangers. Mandy came in and sat on the floor, being patient and letting our dog come to her. After maybe 2 minutes our pup was best friends with her lol. Our pup kept getting Mandy to play tug, and throw her toy. It was so funny and cute. She didn't want to just take our money. She wanted to make sure she was a good fit for our dog, before committing to a walk. That's pretty cool. After taking our pup on a walk she always makes sure there's water in the bowl before she leaves. Mandy is very organized and professional! I would 100% recommend her.”
About: I've lived on a small farm since I was 10 where I've bathed, fed, and cared for multiple dogs, cats, chickens, goats and a bunny. Including puppies and kittens. Friends and family have relied on me to pet sit, provide grooming, medications, walks, and feed their pets. Often times stray animals will make their way into our yard and if they are injured, I'll care for them, feed them and foster them until I can identify their owners. I love all animals and consider each and every one of my pets as family. I am available during the morning and evenings on the weekdays, weekends, and on most holidays to care for your fur baby! At minimum, I spend an hour each visit to ensure your pet(s) are fed, clean, has had time to play and overall gets plenty of love and attention. In your home, I respect and take care of the home and pet(s) as if they were my own. I create a fun, safe and comfortable space for both the owner and pet(s) as I continuously provide updates and/or photos of the pet(s) to the owners during each visit. Depending on the rules from the pet owner, at night I will ensure the pet(s) do get crated and are inside and safe for bedtime and dinner.
About: ⭐️20+ years experience as a fur mom ⭐️Drops ins and walks available ⭐️Flexible schedule ⭐️Love Photography so expect photo updates I was a fur mom for over 20 years. Daisy, my Pomeranian, lived to 15½. Max, my Shepherd/Husky mix, lived to 15. Callie, my tripod Calico cat, lived to 19½. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I would love the opportunity to care for yours while you’re away. I understand how stressful it can feel to leave your pets with someone else, and my goal is to provide loving, reliable care that gives you peace of mind. I also enjoy photography and love capturing sweet moments, so you can expect plenty of photos and updates to help you feel connected and reassured while you’re away from your furry family members. After booking, I send each family my Daisy Moments Welcome Guide and Client Questionnaire so I can learn your pet’s routines, preferences, and favorite comforts. 🌼 I have a flexible schedule and enjoy working with pet parents to find visit times that work best for everyone. While I occasionally have appointments, I am generally available throughout the day and early evening. As a pet owner for over 20 years, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe and comfortable while maintaining the routines they’re used to. I am attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I will always follow your instructions carefully. You’ll receive updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is being cared for and loved while you’re away.
“Yaretzi is wonderful. She’s a great communicator, punctual and so great with our Australian Shepherd, Sadie. She can get very excited for her walk and Yaretzi handles it with such patience. Highly recommended her!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and other animals. I had a Lhasa Apso for eight years (2010–2018), and I currently have a cat that I adopted in May 2024. I’ve been providing pet care services since May 2023 and have experience working with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and personalities. I’m reliable and compassionate, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! :) I love spending my time meeting and caring for pets! I’ve recently opened up my schedule, so I now have much more flexible availability and can accommodate a variety of times. I’m generally available until early evening and prefer to complete visits before dark when possible. Feel free to message me to check my availability and discuss booking options! I prioritize safety, supervision, and following each pet’s routine closely. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they are always secure, whether that means using a leash, keeping doors and gates closed, or supervising them closely indoors and outdoors. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, and I always follow any specific instructions provided. I’m also comfortable with tasks such as feeding, refilling water, crating if needed, and providing playtime and companionship.
About: Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and my own crazy pup. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels, making sure they stay comfortable, active, and on their normal routine. I understand how important consistency is for dogs, so I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medication (when needed), potty breaks, playtime, and any special care. I also know that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, which is why I prioritize communication by providing regular updates and photos throughout every visit. Living in Texas means I always keep the weather in mind when caring for dogs. During especially hot days, I focus on safe ways for pets to stay active and comfortable. I’m an active person who enjoys spending time outdoors, so energetic dogs will always get plenty of exercise, while calmer dogs will receive the patience and attention they need. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you’re back home. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for in my weekly routine. At the moment, I have open availability until my college classes begin on August 20. Once classes start, I’ll continue offering flexible scheduling around my school and work commitments, with availability on my days off as well as before or after shifts. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I provide a safe, caring, and comfortable environment where every pet can feel at home. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can get exercise, play, and enjoy outdoor time while being supervised. I also have a loving and friendly 6-month-old Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix who enjoys playing and socializing with other dogs. I always make sure introductions are done properly and that every dog feels comfortable. I do have a pool area at my home, but it is not used for pet activities and I always supervise pets closely to make sure they stay safe and do not access the pool. Whether caring for pets in my home or visiting a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their routines, providing attention, and creating a safe, positive experience.
About: Hi, I’m Destini! Caring for dogs has always been a standard part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so I'm well-versed in handling different personalities, energy levels, and daily care needs. For a long time, I’ve been the go-to dog walker and sitter for my cousins and extended family whenever they need a hand or head out of town. Because I already love spending my free time taking care of pups, I decided to offer my services on Rover to help other busy dog owners in our community! P.S. For safety, a companion joins me for all first visits. I work a flexible 8-hour schedule from Monday to Friday, which allows me to easily prioritize your pet's needs throughout the day. Whether it requires waking up early for a morning walk or offering dedicated care late at night, I always make sure your fur baby gets full attention, affection, and timely care. For drop-in visits, I follow all feeding, medication, and playtime instructions to the letter, ensuring your home stays secure when I leave. For walks, I use sturdy leashes/harnesses, stick to safe routes, keep a close eye on weather conditions, and never allow interaction with unfamiliar dogs. You will always receive detailed updates and photo reports after every visit!
About: Hello Rover Fam, 🐾 🧡 For the past 5 years, I have had the privilege of caring after my family & friend’s pets. This is mostly in the San Antonio area while they’re out of town & would love to meet new doggos and kitties! I love dogs, cats, and overall have much love and respect for animals. Through helping my loved ones, I have gained hands-on experience with all kinds of personalities—from high-energy pups who need long walks and playtime, to cozy cats who just want a calm companion. Because I sit for family and friends, I understand how important peace of mind is. I treat every pet with endless love, patience, and enthusiasm, making sure they feel safe and happy 24/7 while you are away! Since I am a teacher on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open this summer! I am available, day and night, to give your pups and cats full-time love, walks, and boarding. Your furr babies will get my undivided attention, flexible potty breaks, and plenty of daytime companionship. Whether you need a last-minute dog/cat walk or doggie/kittie drop-in, I am ready whenever you need me! When I visit your home, I treat it with the utmost care and respect. Your pet’s safety and comfort are a priority to me. I view pets as one's family, so I definitely want to make sure I care for your pets with the love that they deserve and that they feel from you! During our walks, I take things at their pace. I stay completely focused on our surroundings to make sure our walks are peaceful, happy, and entirely stress-free for your pup or cat. I want you to feel completely at ease, so I’ll be messaging you beautiful photos and sweet updates about everything we do together!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed and personality. With over five years of hands-on pet care experience—including time assisting in a veterinary clinic—I’ve gained valuable skills in reading animal behavior, administering medications, and supporting post-surgical recovery. Friends, neighbors, and family members have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with both affection and professionalism. Whether it’s energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra care, I’m prepared and passionate about giving pets the attention they deserve. Im currently working a part time job so the days im off or the time before work or after if working mornings will fit into my schedule perfectly! I like to keep my dogs on a constant schedule, whoever we go on walks I make sure their harness fits right and the pavement is never to hot, even when relaxing I like to make sure their toys are safe and that my pups are always comfortable.
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and learned from an early age how to care for them. My dad runs a dog sitting business in Colombia, so I’ve been around all kinds of pups—helping with feeding, walking, and keeping them happy. I bring that same love and attention to every pet I meet. I’m a senior in high school with both late arrival and early dismissal, which means I’m free most mornings, afternoons, and evenings. This flexible schedule gives me plenty of time during the week for walks, drop-ins, and playtime. I’m also available for boarding on weekends, making sure your pets get plenty of love and attention. I have a fenced backyard where your pet can safely play and get fresh air. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

“Always great to see John again, Max loved his stay with him as usual, John sent me pictures and videos of Max having a great time 😊😊, thank you so much and looking forward to see you again!!!”
“We left our basset hound with Skylar for a few days, and she was fantastic! She was professional, kept us updated with frequent pictures, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our pup came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Skylar to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Evgeniya, was the perfect host for my fur baby Sammie. She is very nurturing and sweet. She took lots of pictures and always kept me updated. Sammie felt comfortable with her and her home. It is great to feel your baby is being well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Evgeniya.”
“Thank you so much to Sarah! She was absolutely awesome! She communicated so openly and willingly with us while she kept our boy, Kylo, for over a week. He has separation anxiety and this was his first time being away from us without getting sick. And it was all because she made sure to take complete care of his needs and made him feel loved enough that he barely even missed us. He came home happy as a clam and healthy as when we dropped him off! If you need someone to keep your dog, call Sarah. She’s awesome!”
“Andrew was awesome! Sent me photo updates everyday. My dog came back happy and it always makes me feel better that they are taken care of in a home instead of a loud overwhelming dog boarding place.”
“Keely and her family were the absolute best choice for our dog, Ria! From the very first meet and greet, Keely was such a wonderful communicator and instantly put us at ease. While we were away, she sent us the sweetest photo updates and cared for Ria as if she were part of their own family. We’re so grateful to have found them and will definitely turn to Keely for all of our dog-sitting needs!”
“Our dog Rex had a great stay! We were worried about leaving him alone for the first time and Russell was great at making him feel comfortable and keeping us updated on how he was doing! Would definitely recommend him and book for future trips! Thanks again!”
“Nacho and Guero love (and I mean) LOVE Tambre, which makes traveling that much more pleasurable. Once again, Tambre took excellent care of the dogs and did everything she said she would do--and more. ”
“Alix took such great care of our dog! She sent us photo updates and we knew she was happy as could be! She was punctional and picked her up and dropped us off when she said. We will definitely use her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Addie and I a currently a pre veterinary student who loves animals and am super passionate about animal care! I am a veterinary technician and experienced in medical care, medicine administration, special needs care and trained in small animal cpr. I have a lot of experience as well with dogs such as volunteering at shelters very often for the past 4-5 years and I have fostered and continue to foster dogs of all ages in my free time for various shelters. Some of these fosters include a Bull Terrier and Great Pyrenees! In addition, I have experience in equine medicine, exotic animals medicine and previously worked at a dog daycare. I have a dog of my own, Suki (in my pictures) who is almost 2 years old, well behaved and potty trained who loves to make new friends if you would like me to take her along for walks or drop ins for some doggy playtime with your fur babies! I typically work full time Friday through Sunday but have open availability during weekdays which gives me more time to care for and play with your pets! I have lots of experience with walking dogs, crating them and overall handling them, keeping them safe but also happy. Throughout my time fostering new dogs, I have learned to quickly adapt to each dog and learn their personalities and how best to care for them which I believe is perfect experience for caring for other people’s pets.
“My first time to board my Pom not have been more pleasant! They are very warm and welcoming and my baby felt right at home. They will definitely be my go to puppy sitters in the future. Peace of mind is priceless”
“Nacho had a great time with Francy and her daughter. We were very grateful for her last minute accommodations when some last minute plans came up. She updated me often and reassured me that Nacho was doing well. Thank you Francy!”
“Thank you so much Jessica for taking great care of Max, it was a great experience for Max and me, she constantly shared videos and pics of Max and all the time she was in contact with me, no doubt we will be coming back when needed, thanks again!! 😊”
“Britnee was amazing with our little schnauzer. She sent pictures frequently and daily, which left us feeling comfortable knowing he was in good hands. He even looks happy in the photos! We are very thankful for her! She was great with our pet.”
“This was our Winkie's first stay with Tiffanie and she LOVED it! And so did her dad and I! I think Winkie was a little sad to come home. She misses the constant company. Tiffanie was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. Her home is set up very well for furrbabies and her furrbaby, Hank, and Winkie got along very well. We will definitely call Tiffanie again.”
“Thomas and Shelley did an amazing job looking after Zoe. Sent updates and pictures the whole time. Would absolutely love to have them take care of her again.”
“Aileen is fantastic. She is genuine and reliable. We can not recommend her enough. From the moment she met Benji and Ozzy it was clear she had a true passion for animals. She sent adorable daily updates with photos and treated our pups exactly like one of her own. It is such a relief to travel and know your pet is in great hands. We won’t hesitate to book Aileen again.”
“Rita was great! She watched our 2 dogs got 5 days and treated them like her own! She updated us with how they were doing and with pictures several times a day. I highly recommend her!”
