“Our dog had a fantastic time with Debbie while we were away. She made sure our dog was well fed and had plenty of walks or exercise. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone with hypoallergenic dogs!”
“Loic, Kristen and the kids were wonderful with Koa! He went on long walks everyday, played fetch and tug of war and was showered with love!! The minute we met the family, koa felt right at home! Such a welcoming family and great at communicating. I received pictures and videos everyday, so it made me feel like he was right there with me! Highly recommend :)”

“Definitely recommend! We were nervous to board our dogs with a new person, but they had a great experience with Lisa. She took them on lots of fun outings, sent tons of cute pics, and helped them feel comfortable while we were out of town. We will definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter.”
“Kaylie is our go-to sitter! Rigby always has a great time with her pups and we’re always getting pics/videos of Kaylie playing fetch with her, which is her favorite activity.”
“Shon and his family were great! This was our second time using Rover and we couldn't be happier. Shon was responsive and flexible while scheduling a time to meet. We left our puppy for a week. While our puppy was in Shon's care, we received daily photos and updates. We picked up our puppy and he was washed and happy. We will definitely be back!”
“Quinten took such great care of our 9-month-old pup, Raya, while we were away for spring break. From the moment we dropped her off, my daughter and I felt completely at ease—Quinten’s love for dogs was clear right away. Throughout our trip, he sent us wonderful videos of Raya looking so happy, whether she was cuddling with him or out on walks. It gave us so much peace of mind! We’re already planning to book with him again for our summer vacation.”
“First time using Elan M./Rover service and we would highly recommend Elan M. to look after our dog next time we are in need of a sitter. Elan's daily photo updates kept us informed and relieved us of his security and care. Thank you Elan for looking after our loved one so well. Appreciate it!”

“McKenna and her mom treated Musa like family. They are so sweet and loving and I could tell that our dog felt incredibly well taken care of. They are also wonderful with communication.”
“This was our 2nd time using Sheila and again felt that we’re so lucky that we were able to find her. She took such a great care of our Simba, who had happened to have some stomach issues this time. Sheila went extra and beyond for taking care of him with lots of love and attentions. She sent us very thorough and thoughtful reports with photos & videos of how Simba’s doing and that made us feel relieved and know he was in good hands. Sheila is trustworthy and lovable person who can takes a great care of your furry baby. Sheila also has a HUGE fully fenced backyard that dogs can safely play & get lost, and her Goldendoodle, Teddy, is such a friendly boy and Simba loves to be around. Must have been great for having a big brother like him. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Lisa was a fantastic Rover host for our two dogs. She communicated frequently with us, was proactive in asking clarifying questions about our instructions, and clearly loves dogs. We could tell that our dogs had a great time as well! This was our first time using Rover and Lisa made everything so easy! We will book with her again!”
“Elise and James took such good care of Moss. She got many walks a day, got to play with the neighbor dog, and got lots of cuddling. It was so nice to know she was in such good hands!”
“Scarlet is extremely flexible. We are notoriously late and she is always kind and accommodating. We also love that she only takes one client at a time, so our Rosie gets all of their attention.”
“Xiangyu and Qi took such great care of Natto during her first boarding! I was a little worried but she had no separation anxiety at all. They sent pictures and videos every day, giving me so much peace of mind when I was traveling. Natto also got along really well with Charlie and had a wonderful time together. I’m so grateful for their care and would absolutely book with them again! Highly recommend 😊”
“Kirsten is the best - I know my pup loves staying with her because he gets so excited when we get there and runs right into her house. She is very flexible and communicates and shares great updates. So appreciate the peace of mind when she is caring for my dog, that he is in such good hands and having a great time.”

About: I have taken care of many cats in the past few years. I am very reliable and my clients can count on me to have the best communication.

“Kseniia watched our three kitties while we were out of town for a couple of days, and we couldn’t have been happier with her care! She did a great job communicating with us each day, letting us know when she would be arriving and sending us photos and updates. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our kitties were well taken care of and having a great time with her. We also really appreciated that she lived close by, which gave us extra reassurance in case of any unexpected emergencies or if she was needed quickly. We’re grateful to Kseniia for taking such great care of our precious kitties while we were away. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

She's super nice, communicative and pays attention to the animal's needs. I highly recommend Scarlett (Wanqing) for your pets needs when you need to be away. Will definitely use her again for any upcoming trips!”

“Elan is lovely and my dog loves to hang out at her house. She’s always ready for him to arrive and go home, and easy to communicate with. Thank you, Elan, for caring for my precious pup!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always felt very natural to me. I currently have two Golden Retrievers who are temporarily staying with my brother in another state. Over the years, I’ve cared for small, and medium dogs, taking care of their walks, feeding, baths, playtime, and companionship. I also have experience with basic medication administration and am always happy to follow each pet parent’s specific instructions. I’m a very loving, patient, and attentive person when it comes to animals. One thing that really sets me apart is how quickly I connect with pets. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. To me, pet sitting is more than just feeding a pet and taking them for a walk. It’s about making them feel safe, happy, and at home while their family is away. I work from home using my phone, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate most of my day to caring for pets. I’m available 7 days a week and usually only have a commitment of about three hours between 7:00 and 10:00 AM. Outside of that time, I have plenty of flexibility to adjust to each pet’s needs and routine. I’m available for walks, playtime, companionship, and daytime care. I also enjoy longer walks and outdoor activities, always adjusting them to each pet’s age, energy level, and individual needs I live in a spacious and comfortable townhouse in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood. While I don’t have a private yard, my community has a large pet area and plenty of walking paths where pets can safely get outside and enjoy some fresh air. I currently don’t have any pets living at home, since my two Golden Retrievers are temporarily staying with my brother in another state. I also don’t have children at home, and my two roommates are completely pet-friendly. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their routine, personality, habits, and any special needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll carefully follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, schedules, and any other specific needs. I’m also happy to send photos and updates as often as you’d like. My goal for you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and confident while they’re in my care
“Leroy was the best! I received a pic of Ripley playing outside and he passed out in the car after just a few hours of hanging out. Leroy was very welcoming and I felt very comfortable leaving ripley in his care. He also took a last minute request for us and was flexible on drop off/pick up times. Would highly recommend to anyone!!”
“Our Frenchie Daisy was well taken care of by Alexandria. We especially appreciated the videos she sent us of Daisy playing. We would highly recommend Alexandria to other owners looking for a great pet sitter. You’ll be in good hands!”
“Butters came back happy and tired. They kept us informed with a lot of pictures and videos. They had multiple dogs at the place which i think makes it fun ! they took good care of him”
“Wanqing was very good at taking care of our dog. She was very communicative and kept us updated and provided lots of pictures. She was also able to give our pup his necessary medications at the times needed. Would definitely book with her again when needed.”
“Our pup had a great time with Alex and Carizza! He tends to be nervous but they took the time to help him feel safe and comfortable in their home. I appreciated the pictures they sent throughout the day and the thorough report at the end. I know we will continue to look to them for care in the future.”
“He took great care of my dog in his daycare and was very considerate of his needs and preferences. I felt my dog was in a safe and loving environment and that is very important for us pup parents💚”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Quinten provided for my dog Penny. From the moment we met, it was clear they had a genuine love for animals. They kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pet was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Quinten to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!”
“Ya-Han was amazing with Snowy! I loved receiving regular updates and adorable pictures, which reassured me that Snowy was having a fantastic time. It’s clear that Ya-Han genuinely cares for the pets she looks after. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet daycare provider, and I’m looking forward to booking with her again!”
“Anping was great with our dog, Mowgli. He was also very accommodating when we got with our intended pick up time. I will definitely use his service in the future with Mowgli.”
About: Constant Companionship & Peace of Mind As a full-time remote professional (WFH), your pet will never feel lonely at my home. I am here 24/7 to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and, most importantly, all the cuddles they deserve. Unlike sitters who work out of the home, I can adapt my schedule entirely to your pet’s routine, ensuring they feel safe and settled. Expertise in Specialized Care What truly sets me apart is my experience with high-need pets. I personally raised one of my resident cats from just 2 weeks old—a journey that required immense patience, around-the-clock bottle feeding, and meticulous care. This experience has made me exceptionally attentive to subtle changes in a pet's mood or health, making me a great fit for puppies, seniors, or pets who need a little extra TLC. Lifelong Small Breed Lover Before becoming a cat mom to my two sweet residents, I grew up with a Teddy Dog and a Yorkshire Terrier. I understand the spirited personalities and specific safety needs of small breeds. Living in a cozy townhouse, I specialize in creating a calm, indoor sanctuary supplemented by quality morning and evening walks to keep them active and happy. A Natural Connection I’ve been called an "animal magnet" since I was a child. I believe in patient, positive reinforcement and respect each pet's unique boundaries. Your furry family member will be treated exactly like my own—with unconditional love and professional responsibility. Full-Time Care & Attention As a dedicated pet parent to two cats, my life already revolves around animal care. My WFH status allows me to offer constant supervision and a flexible schedule tailored to your pet's needs. Since I live in a townhouse without a yard, I prioritize quality outdoor time with dedicated morning and evening walks. During the work day, your pet will enjoy a calm, climate-controlled environment with me right by their side. Whether they need a quick play session between my meetings or a quiet spot to nap, I am here to ensure they are happy and comfortable 24/7. Every pet has a unique personality and set of needs. My first priority is to mirror the routine they are used to at home to minimize stress. Whether it’s a specific feeding time, a favorite toy, or a particular way they like to be scratched, I follow your instructions to the letter. When Staying in My Home (Boarding/Daycare): Constant Supervision: Since I work from home, your pet will be in the same room as me most of the day. They will have full access to a comfortable, climate-controlled environment. Safety & Integration: With two resident cats, I am an expert at slow, safe introductions. If your pet prefers their own space, my townhouse allows for easy separation to ensure everyone feels secure and relaxed. Active Outdoors: Since I don't have a yard, I prioritize quality time outside. We will go on at least two dedicated walks (morning and evening) and frequent quick potty breaks to keep them stimulated and happy. Cat-Specific Care: For cat guests, I provide meticulous litter box maintenance and plenty of interactive play with wand toys and feathers. When Visiting Your Home (Drop-ins/House Sitting): Home Security & Tidiness: I treat your home with the utmost respect. I ensure all doors are locked, mail is brought in if needed, and the space remains exactly as you left it. Quality One-on-One Time: I don’t just "fill the bowl." I spend the entire duration of the visit engaging with your pet, providing companionship, and making sure they feel loved while you're away. Detailed Updates: I am a big communicator! You can expect frequent photo and video updates of our adventures, so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing.
“Jenny - Thank you so much for caring for Jordon. You were warm and inviting, so were your pups. He was not anxious when we dropped him off. After we picked him, he was happy and no mood swings. Thank you ❤️ Everyone - Jenny’s home was super comfy for Jordon, with lots of place to run around and get the sun. He was well rested and did his business. Jenny was super sweet to send us pictures and keep us updated with Jordon’s day. We would send Jordon back to Jenny in a heart beat 🫶🏼”
About: I’ve taken care of our rescued toy poodle for the last six years. I also help friends and neighbors to take care of their dogs often, and they return excitedly every time. My two teenagers love dogs, and love to play with and take care of them too. We are only taking hypoallergenic dogs for day care and boarding. Expect lots of walks, potty breaks and play sessions, all in a safe and loving environment. Your dog’s happiness is my ultimate goal! Morning walk is around 7-8am. Mid day walk around 12-1pm. Evening walk around 6-7pm. We also take shorter walks or backyard potty break in between and before bedtime. I live in a quiet neighborhood with trails and dog parks nearby for your dog to explore and have fun in. Your dog is welcome on my furniture, in my backyard, and in an open carpeted area to play in.
About: Hi, I’m Min! I’m an animal lover who has taken care of dogs for over 8 years. I believe every dog deserves a loving, safe environment, and I’m excited to offer that to your furry friend while you're away! Whether it’s a short visit or an overnight stay, I will make sure your dog feels comfortable, secure, and loved. I treat all dogs like family. I understand that each dog has unique needs and I’m here to make sure your pup feels right at home. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to provide a detailed report of your dog’s day, so you can rest easy knowing they’re well taken care of. I’m working from home most of time to give your dog all the attention and care. I can accommodate last-minute bookings! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I’m working from home most of time to give your dog all the attention and care. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to provide a detailed report of your dog’s day, so you can rest easy knowing they’re well taken care of. I take great pride in creating a safe and loving environment for every pet in my care. Here’s how I ensure they feel right at home: Safety First: I make sure my home is pet-proofed, with all potential hazards (like chemicals, sharp objects, and choking hazards) out of reach. The yard is securely fenced so your pet can enjoy outdoor time without worrying about escape. Routine and Comfort: I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I stick to their regular routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I’m also happy to accommodate any specific care instructions you may have, such as dietary needs or medication schedules. Plenty of Play and Exercise: I love staying active with pets, whether it’s going for walks, playing in the yard, or engaging in fun games inside. I tailor activities to suit your pet’s energy level and preferences. Cuddles and Attention: I make sure your pet feels loved and cared for. Whether it's snuggling on the couch or just sitting beside them, I provide lots of attention and affection to ensure they’re comfortable and happy. Clean and Cozy Environment: Your pet will always have a clean and comfortable space to relax. I make sure bedding is fresh, and I keep the environment tidy to ensure they have a peaceful place to rest. Regular Updates: While you’re away, I’ll send you updates, including pictures and messages, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands. I strive to provide a home-like atmosphere where pets feel safe, loved, and happy, just like they would with their own family.
“K is the best dog sitter I could ask for. She is very caring and professional. She tells me when my dogs best friend is going to be at her house. My dog always comes home from daycare happy and tired.”

About: Pets have been my life ever since I was five years old. I wasn't a caretaker at that age, but I've fostered a close connection and understanding towards pets ever since. As I got older, my responsibilities grew in kind, and I became much more involved in the day-to-day care of dogs and cats. I've been fortunate to be a part of six dogs lives, and each have brought different temperaments, attitudes, and energy levels. Four of the six were rescues, so I understand the patience and attentiveness needed to properly address their needs and quirks. I also helped raise a 10 week old puppy into adulthood, so I am very familiar with what it takes to handle the stubbornness and energy of a young pup. While it's been some time since my cat has passed away, I likewise share a similar understanding to their needs and socialization. It requires a different approach than a dog but I am happy to adapt to the pet at hand and ensure they receive the best care possible. I have returned from a term of service abroad in the Peace Corps, and am currently searching for employment as I settle back in the states. I will be living in Washington for the time being before I set off to grad school. As such, my schedule is fairly open for dog walking and check-ins. Some of my fondest memories abroad was walking around the countryside in my spare time, so I'm excited to continue that here with some new friends! I will ensure that the pets' needs are addressed in full with the client before I take on the service, and adhere to the directions advised. I cannot currently board pets at my home, but I am happy to check in on pets whilst abiding by the rules of my client's homes.
About: I’ve grown up caring for animals of all kinds, including large-breed dogs, cats, chickens, and horses. I have especially extensive experience with large dogs and senior pets. I recently lost my Doberman Pinscher at nearly 15 years old, and we currently have a 14-year-old Siberian Husky. As a stay at home mom, I have a flexible daytime schedule and am home much of the day. My routine mainly revolves around school drop-offs, pick-ups, and after-school activities, which leaves me largely available during the morning and early afternoon when many pet owners are away at work. This gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and pets who need a little extra attention throughout the day. I’ve spent my life around animals and understand that every pet has different boundaries, routines, and comfort levels. I’m comfortable with large breeds, senior dogs, crates, mobility needs, and pets requiring extra care. Our home has fully fenced front and back yards, indoor and outdoor security cameras, and baby gates that allow us to safely separate pets from other dogs, children, or food when needed. We also have dog beds, toys, and plenty of clean water bowls available for their comfort. Our children have been raised around large dogs and understand dog safety, including respecting a pet’s space around food, beds, crates, and while resting. I’m happy to follow each owner’s normal routine and household rules so their pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with us.
“Jennifer has been amazing! She walks my baby with patience and enthusiasm. She leaves detailed messages and pictures after each walk. Her years of experience are reassuring as well.”
About: I have taken care of pets, including my own, since I was 8 years old. From big to small, dogs to cats, young and old, and many breeds I have a passion for taking care of animals! I am very reliable and have excellent communication. You will always find your pet happier than you left them! I am currently on summer break so have all the time in the world for your pet! I am free most days and most hours so have a very flexible schedule. Say the word and I will be there for your pet! I have 2 dogs and have taken care of many of my family and friends. I make sure to clean up after them, feed them on schedule, walk them, play with them, and keep up with grooming and hygiene! I will always make sure your pet is safe and gets the attention they need.
“Hailee did a great job managing my older, reactive/anxious dog as well as my very excitable puppy! I would definitely recommend her—she followed my detailed instructions carefully and was very patient with both dogs, who each have somewhat complicated needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years and have had a dog before! I help out with my friends dogs all the time and love going on walks! I’m currently in between getting jobs so my availability is completely open and I can help out and walk and play with dogs whenever needed! I am very gentle and pets tend to like me a lot! I also know how much to feed different dogs and how to approach them and how to make sure they feel loved
“Lori was great and was so sweet with Baobao. We really appreciated her coming for a meet and greet so everyone was comfortable with the situation. Baobao was clearly comfortable with her”
About: I've taken care of and walked all kinds of dogs ranging from big to small for not only my own dog but for friends and family as well since I was twelve. I'm am still on my summer break but even when I go back to school it's only a few days a week just in the mornings, so on those days I can only work in the afternoon but those days I don't go to school I will have a more flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard with 2 friendly yet crazy energized toddler fur babies. They've never attacked other dogs but they love to play with them. They sleep in crates at night but rome freely in our house and backyard during the day.
About: I have fostered dogs and cats on and off for 15 years. The last 6 years have been through R.A.S.K. I have fostered and owned all types of dogs. Don't worry if your dog has super high energy or if your puppy chews on everything. Im prepared and have plenty of experience. I'm a stay at home mom so im home all day. I do same day bookings and am flexible if you have last min changes. I have two 18 month old Lab/Husky mixes. They are 90lbs. My puppies are super friendly and very active. My house is perfect for dogs that need to burn up some energy. My son has made a ball pit for the dogs and on warmer days i fill the ball pit with water. I also have a small plastic pool for pups to play in. Dogs have access to fully fenced yard with use of dog door. They are able to come and go as they please. I do close the dog door at night. I installed anti dig guards around my fence to prevent pups from trying to dig under. My house has central air conditioning as well as portable ac units if needed. I have a live camera in the back yard. You will have 24/7 access to camera. There is an option to veiw past recored events for that day. I have motion activated lighting throughout the back yard. Pet waste is removed from yard multiple times a day. I don't use crates or kennels. If your pup feels more comfortable being crated at night you would need to bring their kennel from home. Otherwise i let the dogs sleep where they want. I have plenty of dog beds for them. Most of the time i end up with all the dogs on my king size bed. My cat is dog friendly and is an indoor/outdoor cat.
“Fariba was amazing! She came to our house on time, Iggy was so excited to see her. She is definitely a dog lover! She took Iggy back and let us know if he had gone potty or not. We will definitely reach out to Fariba again for her service and will definitely recommend her!”
“I contacted Chase on short notice due to work emergency. She took my dog to her appointment to be spayed. Not only did Chase take my girls but Chase left her number as an emergency contact if the Vet could not reach me. Chase’s communication was great and I could not be happier with the care she gave my pup. Chase even checked back to see if I might need her to pick up my pup after the procedure. I won’t hesitate to work with Chase in the future and am beyond happy with the help and peace of mind she gave me.”
“My small yorkie LuLu doesn’t normally walk with anyone but me and very few people who have watched her. Vanessa was able to get her to go on a walk and do her business. It took the stress out of my travel day knowing that LuLu was well cared for. Thank you Vanessa!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing plenty of affection and companionship. Whether your pet is energetic and loves adventure or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I focus on clear communication and regular updates, including photos and messages while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved, and to give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work from home full time so I will be able to accommodate most schedules during the week. My weekends are usually open and free so that means more time to dedicate to your pet's care. I will make sure the proper care and attention is given at any point of the day! I have more than enough space in my apartment to accommodate most animals. My apartment complex is very safe, quiet and clean with adequate space to provide walks if needed. For cat owners, I do have a resident cat that will be in the same house. I will make sure proper separation is guaranteed if you decide to have your kitty cat stay with me!

“Definitely recommend! We were nervous to board our dogs with a new person, but they had a great experience with Lisa. She took them on lots of fun outings, sent tons of cute pics, and helped them feel comfortable while we were out of town. We will definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter.”

“First time using Elan M./Rover service and we would highly recommend Elan M. to look after our dog next time we are in need of a sitter. Elan's daily photo updates kept us informed and relieved us of his security and care. Thank you Elan for looking after our loved one so well. Appreciate it!”
“J & J were amazing! They treated Theo as he was their own dog, lots of love and endless snuggles. We got daily photos and updates and they were very flexible with pick up and drop off. So good, we booked again immediately upon pick up! Thanks again!”
“Lisa was a fantastic Rover host for our two dogs. She communicated frequently with us, was proactive in asking clarifying questions about our instructions, and clearly loves dogs. We could tell that our dogs had a great time as well! This was our first time using Rover and Lisa made everything so easy! We will book with her again!”
“Elise and James took such good care of Moss. She got many walks a day, got to play with the neighbor dog, and got lots of cuddling. It was so nice to know she was in such good hands!”
“Scarlet is extremely flexible. We are notoriously late and she is always kind and accommodating. We also love that she only takes one client at a time, so our Rosie gets all of their attention.”
“Kirsten is the best - I know my pup loves staying with her because he gets so excited when we get there and runs right into her house. She is very flexible and communicates and shares great updates. So appreciate the peace of mind when she is caring for my dog, that he is in such good hands and having a great time.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving my pup in the hands of Quang and his wife. I love that Willow got focused human attention, while also having a chance to play with a small group of other dogs. I know that this arrangements works well for her, so that she doesn't get overstimulated (unlike in a large daycare boarding scenario). I appreciate the extra care they took in giving Willow her medications twice daily and sending daily pictures.”
“Anping watched our dogs for a second time! It is clear that he gives the dogs so much attention, regular exercise, and creates a comfortable environment for them. He sent us multiple updates a day and the dogs always looked so happy. We will definitely book again! Our dogs love to stay there.”
“Omg, I wish I could leave more than 5 stars for Daria!!! She was incredibly caring and loving to our little Leo. She sent pictures, she took such good care of him, she gave him belly rubs, which he loves, and most of all, she helped him feel at home! I plan to use Daria every time we go away!”
“David is the best Rover sitter that I've found so far. He takes great care of our girl, Dolce, and his dog has even become Dolce's boyfriend. David is very conscientious of Dolce's needs, he's organized, provides thorough video and photo updates, and he's very knowledgeable about dogs. He has stepped in last-minute on several occasions to take care of Dolce when we've had family emergencies. I never worry about Dolce when I leave her in David's care, and I strongly recommend David for all of your sitting needs.”
“Alexis took such great care of our dog Indiana! Indiana can be very loud and barks a lot when playing with other dogs but she set up a meet and greet to ensure her dogs and our Indy all felt comfortable. She sent photos everyday which we really appreciated. Most importantly she went above and beyond when our flight home was cancelled, offering to extend our stay and being flexible when Indiana’s “aunt” picked him up instead!”
“We were thankful that Leroy and his family could take Chewie on such short notice. They were very welcoming and invited us into their home so we could look at the space she would be living in. Chewie also had an ear infection, and they helped us with placing drops in her ears every day. Thank you so much for taking care of our Chewie!!!”
“Mochi loved her vacation with Kristen and her wonderful family and doggie Sansa! We were able to leave Mochi without worry because Kristen was great about communicating with us. We received regular updates with photos like we requested. Mochi seemed right at home and might even be missing Sansa, her doggie sister! Wonderful and fantastic dogsitter family, highest recommendation!”
“Stella had an amazing time with Janessa! I appreciate all of the updates and felt very comfortable while we were away. She has a huge fenced yard that allowed Stella to play and let out lots of energy.”
“I couldn’t be happier with how well Patricia and her family cared for my dog. He came home happy, well fed, and sounded like he had a great time. Appreciated the video of his stay too! Highly recommend and would absolutely use again.”
“Ksenia did an amazing job caring for our 12 week old puppy. Our baby stayed with her for about just over 10 days. During her stay we received regular updates and photos. We couldn’t have been more pleased. When we picked her up she seemed very content and happy. I would highly recommend Ksenia and will definitely hire her again.”
