“Ann took great care of Boba! She was incredibly patient and understanding, especially since Boba was in heat at the time and can be a little shy when adjusting to new environments. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We truly appreciated her attentiveness and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”


“Patti & her husband are a very sweet couple and took good care of our little dog.We received updates & photos on a daily basis and it was always very easy to communicate. We picked up a happy dog & it seems that she enjoyed her little vacation as much as we did ours. Thanks again, Patti!”


“Our little London had such a good time with Esther and the other little dogs. Each time we leave her and come back, she is in such a good mood. The interaction with the other dogs provides the perfect "playdate". Thank you and we look forward to more vacations in the future.”

“I can't say enough positive things about Rita and her care for my dog. This is the third time I've left Piper with her and her family for a week or longer and I have complete trust that Piper will be safe and loved while I'm gone. It's given me the ability to enjoy my vacation and not worry about how Piper is doing and that is extremely valuable!”

“We have continued to book with Karen. She follows all care instructions and goes the extra step to make sure Charlie is comfy. She is very communicative and sends lots of pics and videos. She also takes Charlie on extra walks. I know he loves being with Karen because he’s always super excited to see her. We’ll continue to book with Karen!”

“Ursula took wonderful care of my dog! She maintained great communication, sent lots of pictures, and got my dog to eat (which he rarely does when he’s away from us)! We will definitely be booking with Ursula in the future.”

“This is my third time using Jenny as our boarder for my puppies, Elvis and Ellie. She is wonderful! They love going to her home, especially playing in her spacious backyard! She is consistent with their schedule and routine, ensuring they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and rest, while encouraging the skills and commands they are learning at home. I've noticed the time they spend with her, and her family has helped with their confidence and socialization. This makes a tremendous difference, especially when I have to be away. I am so grateful we found her!”

“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”

“I will definitely use Allison again. My dog has really bad anxiety but immediately in the meet and greet I could tell she was comfortable. Allison was extremely friendly during all communications, she was willing to work with me on pick up and drop off arrangements. She continuously updated me on how Hazel was doing and sent pictures every day. It was an excellent experience for my dog and me. Will definitely use Allison again!!!”

“Wonderful experience with a seasoned sitter. Mollie was introduced to me by Rover and lives nearby. It was great to work with her and she had a great demeanor with my dog. They had fun and I looked forward to daily updates and photos. I felt my dog was in great hands and she seemed at ease with Mollie and staying in her home.”


“Tambre definitely deserves a 5 star review. I'm a quite paranoid dog owner and very picky about who watches our girl but we are super happy with Tambre. I could not have asked for a better experience.”

“Karynne is a great sitter! My dog likes a car ride and Karynne took him to places on her car. She sent me updates and photos everyday. I appreciate that she took care of my dog very well!”


“Thank you, thank you to Madeleine and Charlie for taking phenomenal care of our rambunctious 3 mo. old puppy for over two weeks!!! She got special training (even house training!), had great doggy socialization, and boundless fun.. all under the watchful eyes of Madeleine and Charlie. Our pup even required a trip to the vet due to a UTI that she had arrived with! They took care of everything. This is a very special place with very special people and we're so grateful to have found it.”

“Pat is lovely and great with communication! She puts our skittish girl at-ease. We are grateful to have reliable help and Lily is happy to have a great companion while we’re gone!”


“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.”

“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.”


“I had Mandy check on my cat once A-day for a week while I was on vacation. This is my 1st time using rover and it is also my 1st time having someone come into my home to take care of my animal. Mandy is super professional super friendly and leaves wonderful updates about your animal. I'm going to request her from now on”
“Ursula was amazing. She recently started doing this but she is already a pro. My cats aren't easy but both cats warmed up to her quickly. She followed instructions and kept me well informed with anything I needed to know. She also provided the cutest pictures. Thank you!”
“Kristin was great with Meeko! She stayed to play with him while we were gone and took great care of him! We came home to a very happy boy! Thank you Kristin!”

“Andria was amazing!!! I had a few issues and last minute changes and she worked with me no matter what! it’s hard to leave my baby and I can tell how much fun he had with her. She definitely gave me a peace of mind and always sent pictures. I recommend her 100% if you want someone trustworthy and loving to your baby! Andria thank you again! will definitely be re booking”

“Matthew was awesome and super flexible while dropping in on our 2 cats! We had some ongoing construction which made the situation at the house a bit more difficult to navigate, and he was super communicative, helpful, and cleaned the cats' area up a bit for us before we returned home!”


“Justice is always great with Gizmo and was sure to send me plenty of photos of him during his visit. Gizmo is partial to men and he definitely enjoys Justice's company. Justice makes my nervous boy feel at ease when I am out of town. He is definitely one of the best sitters and one of the few men in my area offering pet sitting services. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a great sitter! ”

“Sarah was a fantastic sitter for our Maltese. She kept us well-informed of how things were going with pictures and texts. Our dog was very excited to play with Sarah's Maltese and hang out with her family. We'll certainly use Sarah again for day care services!”

About: Provide attention to details and communication through text and pictures daily. Specializes in senior care and accommodations like medication. Daily walks, hugs, and belly rubs.

“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!”

“We were very relieved that Andrea accepted our last minute booking for our three fur babies during our travels! She picked them all up, fed them, and gave them play time. She sent photos & videos which was an added bonus! Highly recommended!”

“Lola had a wonderful day with Karen. She treated Lola just like family, giving her so much love, affection, and attention. Karen was able to send updates and pictures of Lola throughout the day. I know Karen will be my first go-to person to care for my little angel. I recommend Karen wholeheartedly! She’s wonderful!”

“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 🙏🏻”

About: I've owned to dogs in the spanned of 12 years. Both 100 plus pounds, I've also worked with medium size breeds and toy breeds. I also own exotic and cats. I have worked in the retail industry catering towards animals and have volunteered sitting for farm animals. I'm at the moment working towards a degree in veterinary medicine full time. I do not work so this would be my main source of income. Since I am fully dedicating previously my time to school. Close monitoring and calm approach to any situation or environment are essential when it comes to the care of animals in my possession. Patience and building a bond is also very important and key to building a long lasting relationship with my animals.

“Tambre was great! We tried her out for a day of doggy daycare, and she was very professional. She asked about our dog's special traits and needs, and showed us around her place. We received a ton of photos, especially for one day, and it's clear that she cares very much for the well-being of her clients.”

“My dog is very happy with Tamara! She takes great care of him, encourages play and ensures he is comfortable and safe. We are very happy to have someone so wonderful watch our dog!”

“Jenny was wonderful with our Oakleigh ! She is communicative and attentive. Jenny sent pictures to keep me updated throughout the day. Thank you so much. Her daughter was so sweet and helpful too. Thank you both for taking such good care of Oakleigh.”

“Kara was great once again, even with my last-minute request! She really saved the day when I had to make a quick trip from Austin to see my mom in the hospital. Super thankful for her help — I’ll definitely keep booking with her!”
