“Alaetria was so great and accommodating! I was able to set times for drop off and pick up with no issues and knew right away that my pup was in good hands. He had another nice doggo to play with and when I picked him up he was smiling from ear to ear. Will definitely go back to her any time I need my little buddy boarded again. Thank you so much for the peace of mind and friendly service, you're awesome!”
“I love booking with Jocelyn. No matter how busy we our I love receiving updates and pictures of our dog. I love that she’s always available when we need her to watch our dog Nala and I know she takes real good care of her. We came back to a clean happy dog. Thank u Jocelyn for all that u do and appreciate you so much. Will continue to book with you whenever we need to….”
“Maverick had an awesome time with Mandi and her cute family! He spent the entire weekend playing fetch, playing with their sweet dog, Hank, and getting lots of loves. Mandi sent me pictures and updates and I knew he was happy, healthy, and safe. Definitely recommend, and we will absolutely take Mav to stay with them again!”
“I trust no other like I do for toni. My Bella is my life and love. Toni understood that right away. Her environment is her home. It's so comfortable and Bella felt right at home at the first moment. Toni has a big yard for them to play. There are steps on her porch. Bella learned how to go up and down easily. I couldn't get her to use steps. Toni is sweet and kind. She has a small poodle named Buddy. Perfect size for friendship for my Bella who is a Pomeranian. It's a wonderful family environment. I had to have surgery and not once did I worry about Bella. Thank you so very much Toni. You are a great pet owner as well as a sitter. She has become our friend.”
“Amber is an amazing dog sitter! Axel loves staying with her and always comes home happy, tired, and more confident. He gets lots of playtime with other dogs, plenty of snuggles, and excellent care. Amber is also a great communicator and always sends cute photos and videos, which I really appreciate. Having a trustworthy dog sitter is so valuable, and I know Axel is having a great time whenever he's with her!”
“Samantha was great! She sent pictures of our dog everyday and took him out for walks and playtimes. She understood my dog’s needs and I know my dog requires lots of patience, which she showed. Will definitely book again!”
“M.K. took amazing care of my 12 week old puppy while I was out of town for 5 days. She sent me lots of photos and kept me updated each day I was gone. My puppy was super tired from playing with the other dogs there which I think is a great sign that she had a good time.:)”
“Megan, her family and pups were so sweet to my little fur baby that has NEVER, in the 8 years we had him, spent the night away from our family. We will have to leave him somewhere for 2.5 weeks. We did a test run with a Megan, and the search is already over. She sent us pictures and a video and he looked so happy. He was happy to se us the next day, but we could tell he was hesitating, almost like telling us to stay there or to bring them all home with us, LOL. I can tell they spoiled him as much as we do.”
“Great experience booking with this family! They were super flexible and sent me an update with pictures. Millie came home a happy dog! Would rebook in the future. :)”
“Logan was great! He sent us pics and info about how they were doing while we were gone. He made it easy and effortless to drop our girls off and pick them up. I would definitely recommend using Logan to keep your pups!”
“Excellent dog sitter! My dog stayed at her house and received wonderful care. Great communication, updates, and a welcoming environment. I would happily use her services again.”
“Marylynn was super nice and took great care of our dog! She sent frequent pics and videos of walking her and taking her to the park, which we appreciated. Definitely recommend as a dog sitter.”
“Our dog, Alta seemed to have a great time with this family. We appreciated the daily photo updates. Great communication and accommodating to our schedule. Thank you so much!”
“Justine did great with Jack! I was nervous about leaving him for a week since it was my first time away from him, but Justine was communicative, sent daily updates and took great care of Jack. He had so much fun playing with her dogs :)”

“Kara is amazing, first time I left my kitties with someone who was not family and she was great. Communicated well and sent many pictures. My cats automated feeders got knocked over and missed a meal but Kara got them fixed, reinforced and made sure my kitties were fed. I can't recommend her enough. 10/10 Will be booking again.”
“I really appreciate your updates for my babies. They mean the world to me so I’m extremely happy that they were so well cared for. I will definitely request your services again.”
“Alexus took amazing care of our cat crew. She is communicative, does everything asked of her, and she also went above and beyond. It was a relief to know our animals were in such caring and capable hands while we were away.”
“Payton was absolutely wonderful! They provided tons of great photos of our cat while we were gone and took wonderful care of her. They were also amazing at communicating throughout the trip, coordinating the check-ins, and just overall.”
“Caitlin was very pleasant & helpful she took very good care of our dogs & went above and beyond to clean up after my dogs accident. She was very reliable and my dogs loved her.”
About: I've had cats for most of my life, and my love for them runs deep! Honorable mentions go out to my own cat, family members' cats, and the feline friends I've met through friends. I've often been entrusted with visiting homes to check on cats—making sure they're well-fed, have fresh water, and feel cared for in their space. As a lifelong cat owner myself, I've adored these animals since childhood and understand how important their comfort and well-being are.
“M.K. Was incredibly gracious and took such good care of our cats. They were communicative and sent so many cute photos. We’ll definitely book them again in the future!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful. She came once a day and fed our cat, scooped her litter, played with her and gave her some attention while we were on a two week vacation. She also went above and beyond when we needed her to turn off an alarm as well as she just let us know the overall status of our home. I would definitely use her again. Highly recommend.”
“Jenny was the perfect pet companion. I will be booking her for sure in the future. My Russian Blue kitty is 14 years old, and has special needs. Jenny was so gentle, caring, attentive, and a wonderful caregiver. She let him sleep in bed with her and sit with her watching TV. I was able to completely trust her and fully enjoy my vacation. I can't say enough good things about her.”
“Michelle was great with our cats! They really enjoyed their time with her and put us at peace if mind they would be taken care of while we were gone. Will certainly be using again in the future!!”
About: I have been a cat owner for almost 3 years now. I am willing to provide anything for your cat to make sure they are happy and comfortable. I love getting to know cats and becoming best friends.
“Jesse was an amazing pet sitter! He played with my cats a lot and sent me photo and video updates. I will definitely book him the next time I go out of town! 10/10 Recommend :)”
“Alaetria took great care of our girls and was very understanding of their eccentricities. She was also a great communicator and kept us up to date! Would highly recommend!”
About: I provide calm, home-based dog boarding and daycare designed to feel less like traditional boarding and more like staying with someone your dog already knows and loves. I’m generally home throughout the day, so my guests get plenty of attention, affection, playtime, outdoor breaks, naps, and cuddles. I intentionally keep things small and personal, caring for one dog or household at a time. My goal is simple: every dog in my home should feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Dogs have been a huge part of my life for almost 30 years. I spent about 15 years fostering and helping rehabilitate abused and neglected dogs, volunteered as a dog specialist in high-stress shelter environments, and completed animal behavior and handling training through Best Friends Animal Society and Salt Lake County Animal Services. That experience taught me that dogs aren’t one-size-fits-all. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and figuring out what makes them feel happiest and most at home. Most importantly, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. I want you to leave knowing they’re safe, loved, understood, and probably being spoiled a little more than they’ll admit when you get home. I am generally home throughout the day, and I keep our daily routine flexible based on the needs of the pups staying with me. Energetic and ready to go? There will be plenty of walks, outdoor time, play, and opportunities to burn off that energy. More of a couch potato? Laid-back days, cozy naps, and couch snuggles are some of my favorite pastimes! Because I intentionally keep the number of dogs in my care exclusive, I'm able to get to know each pup's personality and make sure they get the right balance of activity, attention, play, and downtime. Not every dog wants to do the same thing, and that's perfectly okay. Pups are rarely left alone while staying with me. If I do need to step out, it's typically for a short period of time, usually no more than an hour or two. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. There are no pets or children in the home, which helps create a quieter, lower-stress environment for dogs who prefer a little more peace and consistency. My family are all dog people, so pups are always surrounded by people who genuinely love and enjoy them. We have a fenced patio/run where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, stretch their legs, and take easy potty breaks throughout the day. I also have a secure lead setup in the front yard where dogs who enjoy the outdoors can safely relax, sunbathe on the outdoor bed, sniff around, and enjoy some fresh air while supervised. We’re also surrounded by some of Daybreak’s best dog-friendly parks, walking trails, and green space, including areas near the lake, which means lots of safe, leashed walks, fresh air, sniffing, and enrichment. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I require a meet & greet for all new clients to make sure we are a great fit before booking.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kearns
“M.K. And their partner are always fantastic! They are always so accommodating to late requests and time changes. Sprout has stayed with them for day care and boarding when we were out of town. I plan to use them when we go on a Europe trip later this year. While I do think there could be a bit better communication I also recognize that M.K has a life too and I think that a lot of these reviews fail to see M.K. as a human just as we her clients are. So ultimately I don’t see any negatives to having my boy, Sprout, stay with them. I really cannot say enough high praises about M.K and their partner. Sprout is always super excited to see them! He always comes home well socialized and exercised. I know he is getting plenty of enrichment and love while there, and so so much fun! I love the photos I get everytime he’s with them, especially when he’s boarded there while we are out of town missing him! The daily photos really gives us assurance. Sprout is a very energetic dog and I truly feel that they are able to help him get all of his energy out in a healthy fun way. I’ve tried other dog day cares before and sprout always came back filthy and TOO exhausted, it was worrisome. He’d come back with wounds as well. I never have to worry about any of that with M.K. They are able to help my boy pace himself and take rests when he needs them. I really feel that the negative reviews are harsh. I cannot recommend M.K. Enough and I am incredibly grateful we have found them! We and Sprout will definitely be a life client!”
“I would love to have Rachel and her family take care of Poppy again. I loved that she is quick to respond and also sent me a video of Poppy during her stay. Really appreciate it!”
“Amber is really great with our shy lab mix. I can tell he really loves to visit Amber and his doggie friends I really appreciate her flexibility and the many updates and pictures she sends throughout the days!”
“Nicki was fantastic! She was able to watch Leo last minute and sent updates throughout the day. When my bf went to pick him up he said Leo was calm and not to excited to see him, which means Leo enjoyed his day. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone and use her again!”
“We are travelling from Texas to Utah and ski resorts don't allow pets on the ski area so we need some place safe for our fur baby. Gracie did an amazing job and treated our pet as her own. She constantly updates us and that reduces our anxiety. Highly recommended 👌 very professional. She can accommodate unneutered 🐕 pet”
About: I open my home and my heart to the dogs I care for. 🐾 Here, your pup isn’t just a guest—they’re family. They’ll have a cozy place to rest, loving attention, and plenty of playtime and cuddles. I do my best to follow their routines so they feel safe and understood. While you’re away, I’ll make sure your dog feels loved, comforted, and truly at home. I work from home and on my schedule. My dogs get yard play every few hours with me and have access to the yard at their convenience. I take my dogs on walks every week. Fenced yard, free access to the back yard. I play with them on a daily basis. They have access to the whole house. They are happy and your doggie will be as well. Home away from home.
“Xochitl is such a great sitter. My puppy loves her and her doggies. She sends pics & videos throughout the day. She even offered to give mine bath. Great experience. Always willing to give me advice about yorkies (she has one herself) ☺️”
“Brooke and her husband took great care of my dog! I could tell he had great fun; he was exhausted when I picked him up, and very happy to go back to their house in the morning! I loved receiving pictures and videos capturing him playing with the other dogs in their great backyard. Also, very very much appreciated their flexibility and graciousness keeping him for longer hours during the days!”
“Alaetria did such a wonderful job taking care of Ace. I was always updated and got so many cute pictures and videos. She’s seriously amazing and wonderful. If you need someone to take care of your fur baby I highly recommend her💕💕”
“Mark and Cathy were amazing! We were very nervous to leave our dog for a day time stay and they did an amazing job making us feel in the loop. we got tons of pictures and updates about how be was doing and they took detailed notes about his personality and his needs. we will be booking again and I can’t recommend them enough!”
“My pup did doggy day care with Nikki, and she exceeded expectations! She sent a wonderful report with a butt load of cute, hilarious and epic photos of my pups stay. Her pup played well with mine so he came home soo tired, which was what I wanted. She even worked with my pup to give him a proper introduction to cats and some other training exercises. It’s funny being on the other side of Rover because I used to board dogs and I put my all into each dog. I know that there are different kinds of “dog sitters”. Nikki is legit and knows how to handle dogs. Highly Recommend.”
“Silvana was an excellent host for Neve during the day! She took her out several times and played with her as much as Neve enjoyed. Neve was extremely happy and had a wonderful time. Silvana captured a lot of pictures and videos, shared plenty of updates, and made me feel very reassured that Neve was in good hands! Thank you, Silvana!”
“Justine is awesome and super easy to work with. Muri was well cared for and she had a blast. I’m hoping to continue having Justine care for Muri while I’m at work each week.”
About: *I currently have a 4 year old, neutered male, Border Collie mix* (If booking for 4 days or more, I prefer to bring him with me. If it's less than 4 days I can work with leaving him at home.) I've had dogs in my life since I was about 8 years old. My mom bred our dogs and I would help her. I helped to birth the puppies, feed and wash them, weigh them and track their progress, train and care for them. Since I was 18 I've adopted six dogs. One of them was deaf and blind when I adopted her. I've never been the first home for any of my doggos but I've been the best/most loving final home for all of them. I work part time and have plenty of time to spend with animals. I usually take my dog out for a stretch/potty every couple of hours and we walk at least once a day. I'm constantly looking for new parks and fun places to play. I have a three year old Border Collie mix that gets along well with other dogs and cats. The yard is fenced but there's no doggy door. I have some crates of various sizes if needed. The fur babies are allowed on the bed and all of the furniture at my house. I frequently pet/house sit for a Pitbull mix and she's one of my dogs besties. She has medication and a special diet. I've also frequently had my dad's dogs visit. So my dog is used to both having separate food and sharing in a communal pack. Whenever we pet/house sit we follow their house rules (i.e. - no dogs on the furniture or in the kitchen, etc). I'm trusted with keys to multiple homes and never stop by unless asked to.
About: I've been with Rover for a few years and i just love it! I've taken care of cats, dogs and even chickens. It's a place great way to meet critters. Not experienced in training, sadly. I'm currently looking for a part time job. So I have plenty of time playing with your fur babies. I am currently available for doggy day care as well. I do live in a studio apartment, right out my front door is a dog park. And it's the perfect place to walk dogs. All kinds of my neighbors are always out walking there dogs.

“Alex is attentive, intuitive and professional. I would recommend Alex to anyone who cares about attention to detail, she does so well with my puppy and he loves her!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and am completely comfortable with dogs of all sizes, especially large breeds. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, basic reinforcement of good behavior, or attentive drop-in care while you’re away, I provide reliable, capable support. I also offer morning feedings during walks if your routine requires it, ensuring your dog is fed, walked, and settled right on schedule. Beyond standard care, I bring extensive hands-on experience administering medications including insulin injections and complex treatments such as chemotherapy—giving you total peace of mind if your pup has specialized medical needs. I’m confident handling different temperaments and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear, proactive communication with owners. Let’s team up to keep your dog happy, healthy, and thriving! I offer consistent, reliable care and am available for walks and drop-ins. You can expect a steady routine tailored to your dog's needs, including feeding, exercise, and any required medications. I prioritize clear, proactive communication with timely updates and photos during every visit so you always know your pup is doing well. Every service is approached with a strict focus on safety, consistency, and respect for your dog's unique temperament. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly, well-managed dogs.

I maintain a structured, low-stress environment and closely supervise all interactions. I follow owner instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, and activity levels. Clean, secure, and safety-focused at all times.
About: High Drive & High Energy experience! I’ve been very interested in all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember! I was always the dog/cat savvy one in a family. I currently own a 5 year old German Shepherd (Geist), a 1 year old German Shepherd (Levi) as well as 2 cats (Haku & Tucker)! 5 years ago I got my very first dog as an adult on my own, Geist. Geist made me find my love for training and we have learned so much in our time together. We have trained and competed in numerous dog sports; scent work, dock diving, fastCAT. We have been working hard training for a sport called PSA (Protection Sports Association) which focuses on high levels of competitive obedience and bite work. This sport has opened a whole new world for me and has taught me so much about dog behavior, handling and training. This has made me very passionate about getting dogs out there and giving them proper outlets for their energy as well as a huge passion for training and general care. I also have experience with cats, reptiles & small animals, please message me for more info or help with care for those guys! Our pets are family and we are really lucky to have them in our lives. They deserve our respect and proper care in every aspect, so I’m here to help with that! I am currently working part-time in the early morning hours so I have plenty of time throughout the day to help care for and have fun with your pups or kitties! I am available most days from 11 AM-5 PM! For in home visits!: I would love to follow what you think best suits the care they need! Tell me about your fur babies and how they live with you! For boarding clients!: I only take one client at a time for in home boarding. I can accommodate a maximum of 2 dogs per client/household. My home is strictly crate and rotate (with the exception of structured time on a place bed) unless you are boarding with me for more than 3-5 days. Your pups will not meet either of my dogs except for in passing on leash or in front of their kennels. I have a dog room for my dogs but I typically keep boarding dogs in a separate room for their rest time to ease the stress of being in a new environment on your pups!
“I’m a healthcare traveler working in town for only 9 weeks. I needed someone reliable to walk my dog while I worked long shifts. Alyssa was wonderful with my dog, reliable, kind and available for last minute requests if I had to work late. She answered texts quickly and was wonderful with my dog and crazy schedule! Highly recommend.”
“Jacky is great!! She is always punctual and takes good care of Fenway on their walks. I love getting pictures and detailed information on their time together and she sends it every time!”
About: If you are reading this, you don’t need to go elsewhere. While you are away your baby will have their own poochcation.

Anywho I have babysat my friend’s/family pooches ever since! I know how nerve wrecking it is to leave your baby with someone they may not know. I will send pics, videos spoil your baby that they will think they are on vacation themselves. I have repeat pawrents that keep bringing their babies back. I work from home and have 1 little senior fur Yorkie with me. We take walks multiple times a day, go to the dog park and love taking him on car rides. I currently have a 11 year old pooch that lives with my husband and I. If you bring your baby for boarding they will have a bath (if you request)with no extra charges. We only use the very best shampoos for the fur babies. I have experience with giving meds, shots, cpr, what to do in case of a seizure or choking etc. I work from home so I’m at home all day long along with my little fur baby. We love living good and enjoy walks and play time. I live in a townhome your fur babies will always be on a leash as their safety is my number one priority they’ll be happy and comfortable with me.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years and absolutely love caring for dogs! I currently have two small dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with the day-to-day responsibilities that come with caring for pets, including walks, feeding, potty breaks, medications, grooming, and keeping a close eye on their behavior and comfort. I’m especially attentive to the little things—making sure a dog is comfortable with me, watching for anything unusual, and giving plenty of love, patience, and attention. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every dog in my care like they’re my own. 🐾💜 Hi! I’m Alayna, and I’m a lifelong dog lover who would honestly be thrilled to spend my days off hanging out with your pup! 🐶 I have two little dogs of my own, so I know how much our dogs mean to us—and how important it is to have someone you can trust with them. I’m patient, attentive, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a leisurely sniff-and-stroll, or a good walk to burn off some energy, I’d love to be their buddy! I’m also happy to send lots of pictures and updates along the way because I know I’d want to see what my dog was up to. 🥰 I’m new to Rover, so I’m currently building up my profile and would love the opportunity to meet some new furry friends.

I prioritize cleanliness, keep a close eye on their well-being, and provide plenty of playtime and exercise to keep them happy and healthy. In your home, I respect your space and make sure your pet feels secure while maintaining the environment they’re familiar with. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, or just companionship, I treat every pet like family.

I have administered medications, assisted vets with bandaging and cleaning, have taken care of boarding dogs at a clinic among many other daily duties of being a Veterinary Assistant. I work full time but work remotely 3 days a week. My schedule is flexible and with proper notice, I can fit whatever you need into my day! I do not offer in-home services since I have a cat of my own and she does not tolerate other animals. I am happy to visit your home to check in on your fur babies!

I love getting outside for walks, giving plenty of belly rubs, and making sure every dog feels safe and loved.

Why choose me? • Reliable and communicative • Friendly, calm, and patient • Comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities • Will absolutely tell your dog they’re the cutest ever Your pup gets love, attention, and care — and you get peace of mind. 🐶 I am a stay at home mom who knows how to manage time and responsibilities very well!

“Suzanna is kind and wonderful. She has a calm and considerate approach with me and my dogs...just what we all need. I'm very much looking to her dog walking and house sitting for me in the future.”
“We've had Mark for 1 week now. He does his job really wonderful. It doesn't get more professional than that. We are so glad that Mark is running our Sisko.”
About: I have had many many family dogs over the years and have lots of experience with pet-sitting. I offer house/pet sitting, boarding, daycare, and check-ins. I have provided care for dogs of all ages, especially those with special needs and the elderly. I have strong bonds with most, if not all dogs I encounter and love having additional play pals for my dogs's to play with. I have trained my Shepherd as a therapy dog and she is wonderful with younger pups who need a little role-modeling from an older and wiser pup like my girl. I have worked with dogs in many capacities from therapeutic work - to search and rescue and much more. I am pack-oriented and would love to add your pup for the day or to board overnight. We love the additional four-leggeds in our home and look forward to working with you and yours. I currently work from home with my 2.5 year old pup. I am available for boarding if your pet is house-trained and walks well on leash. I find that my boarding pups do best if they can join our daily walks for mental and physical stimulation and would love to bring yours along for the adventure! My dog gets a daily walk, and your pet would come along. We live near a vast number of parks, and the Jordan River Trail which makes for great adventures! My dogs and yours have a BIG fenced yard and can go in and out as they please. We live in a spacious home where the dogs are free to play and enjoy themselves in a very stress free environment with no children or other adults. My animals are fed twice per day; once in the morning and evening. My pups enjoy several treats throughout the day - especially for positive reinforcement and training purposes. You can expect your pet to be treated like one of my own.
“Kara was lovely. I have two very reactive dogs. Kara was patient, calm and very sweet with there high energy and anxious behavior. After the second walk my pups anxiety was much lower the very much enjoy there walks with Kara. She is amazing!”

About: I own a 7 y/o Shih Tzu/Yorkie, a 3 y/o Shih Tzu, and a 12y/o mini poodle! My family has owned dogs from 8 lbs to 130 lbs! We love all furry friends and accept them as they are, whether they drool, jump, or talk! My dream breed to own is a giant breed (Irish Wolfhound!) but regardless of breed, they’re special to me! I love taking dogs to places they can run around and really enjoy time outside! I have worked as a Medical Assistant, in dog boarding, and as a professional dog groomer! I believe in “Positive Reinforcement” and Fear Free training training methods and like to keep up to date on current training methods for personal use! I am also more than happy to help with bath time or reinforcing anything you’re working on with them! I love reading about Canine Enrichment activities and I love watching them figure it out. I am passionate about dogs and would love to meet yours! Dog time is my self care time so I love filling my time with dog interaction, walks, and puppy snuggles! I have a grooming salon in my home, and generally am around :) I was exhausted as a little dog owner with every boarding environment being targeted for big dog enjoyment! My environment is meant for the little dogs, and they know it! I keep beds with blankets in every nook and cranny for every type of snuggler. They have access to furniture, and have every variety of space to settle they need! There are a couple open kennels (always open) that my dog don’t care to go near for those who like their den.

“Alaetria was so great and accommodating! I was able to set times for drop off and pick up with no issues and knew right away that my pup was in good hands. He had another nice doggo to play with and when I picked him up he was smiling from ear to ear. Will definitely go back to her any time I need my little buddy boarded again. Thank you so much for the peace of mind and friendly service, you're awesome!”

“Maverick had an awesome time with Mandi and her cute family! He spent the entire weekend playing fetch, playing with their sweet dog, Hank, and getting lots of loves. Mandi sent me pictures and updates and I knew he was happy, healthy, and safe. Definitely recommend, and we will absolutely take Mav to stay with them again!”
“Amber is an amazing dog sitter! Axel loves staying with her and always comes home happy, tired, and more confident. He gets lots of playtime with other dogs, plenty of snuggles, and excellent care. Amber is also a great communicator and always sends cute photos and videos, which I really appreciate. Having a trustworthy dog sitter is so valuable, and I know Axel is having a great time whenever he's with her!”
“Samantha was great! She sent pictures of our dog everyday and took him out for walks and playtimes. She understood my dog’s needs and I know my dog requires lots of patience, which she showed. Will definitely book again!”
“M.K. took amazing care of my 12 week old puppy while I was out of town for 5 days. She sent me lots of photos and kept me updated each day I was gone. My puppy was super tired from playing with the other dogs there which I think is a great sign that she had a good time.:)”
“Megan, her family and pups were so sweet to my little fur baby that has NEVER, in the 8 years we had him, spent the night away from our family. We will have to leave him somewhere for 2.5 weeks. We did a test run with a Megan, and the search is already over. She sent us pictures and a video and he looked so happy. He was happy to se us the next day, but we could tell he was hesitating, almost like telling us to stay there or to bring them all home with us, LOL. I can tell they spoiled him as much as we do.”
“Great experience booking with this family! They were super flexible and sent me an update with pictures. Millie came home a happy dog! Would rebook in the future. :)”
“Logan was great! He sent us pics and info about how they were doing while we were gone. He made it easy and effortless to drop our girls off and pick them up. I would definitely recommend using Logan to keep your pups!”
“Excellent dog sitter! My dog stayed at her house and received wonderful care. Great communication, updates, and a welcoming environment. I would happily use her services again.”
“Marylynn was super nice and took great care of our dog! She sent frequent pics and videos of walking her and taking her to the park, which we appreciated. Definitely recommend as a dog sitter.”
“Our dog, Alta seemed to have a great time with this family. We appreciated the daily photo updates. Great communication and accommodating to our schedule. Thank you so much!”
“Justine did great with Jack! I was nervous about leaving him for a week since it was my first time away from him, but Justine was communicative, sent daily updates and took great care of Jack. He had so much fun playing with her dogs :)”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Genny and her family. Our dog Rocket is a high energy Aussie who can be a lot to handle occasionally. However, Genny cared for him with lots of patience and compassion. Also, their dog Shay is a total sweetheart and great playmate. We received the perfect amount of pics and videos daily, which we really appreciated since we missed our boy a ton. He came home happy and tired :)”
“Heather was so sweet with Ruby. I could tell Ruby felt safe with her and her dogs and with her kids. Heather took pictures every day and kept me in the loop/ I really appreciated her help with Ruby.”
“Anibal was an excellent dog sitter! He kept us updated with great communication and regular pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I loved that our dogs had access to his backyard whenever they wanted through his doggie door. It’s clear he genuinely cares for the pets he watches. I highly recommend him and would definitely book with him again!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jessica! Her and her family treated Parker like she was part of their own family. She received so much love, attention, cuddles, and playtime — especially her favorite ball games and walks. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was not only cared for, but genuinely happy while I was away. I also really appreciated the frequent updates and pictures. Seeing her having so much fun and being so loved made all the difference. It’s rare to find someone who goes above and beyond the way Jessica did. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet!!”
