“I have never left my little ginger with anybody, but my daughter, and that was only once. I did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews before I decided on who I would leave my little baby with. I was beyond satisfied with the pictures and the videos that she sent me daily. I could tell that she not only was adapting, but she was enjoying being around other little dogs and starting to participate. I really wanted to be home to see my new grandbaby and this was a great stress release knowing that she was in great hands. I would recommend 100%”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”
“Mia had such a good time staying with Kirsten. She made so many new friends. The communication with Kirsten was great. Lived the photos and videos. We’ll definitely book with Kirsten again.”
“Kevin and his partner were fantastic! They took excellent care of Edgar while I was gone, and pampered him to boot! Edgar was very sad to leave Kevin's side, and he had to be carried out.”
“James is hands down the best dog sitter I have ever had. He is communicative throughout the whole process, he’s a true animal lover and he actively shows his love to your pet while under his care. I could tell by my pet Apollos behavior that he didn’t want to leave James when I picked him up. They went for hikes, walks and he got tons of snuggles and cuddles. James is not your typical dog sitter, he’s above average in every way and I wish I lived closer to him to use him every week!!!”
“Mike was a true gift during a very emotional and busy time. With family in town for my father’s funeral, I needed a peaceful place for my dog Bo to stay for a few days. Mike and Shari welcomed him into their beautiful, woodsy home—with picture windows that Bo immediately wanted to look out, and a calm, comforting vibe. When I picked him up at the end of his stay Bo was a relaxed and happy dog! Thanks guys!”
“I love the way Donna took care of my princess coco when I took her to stay Donna had a very beautiful and clean set up for coco she send pictures and text me about cocos day.

“Jennifer is so kind sweet and accommodating. She was able to get us in quickly for a meet and greet before we left Baloo for several days with her overnight. She is quick in responding and genuinely cares about all the dogs she sits for and thoughtful of how may she can manage at a time.”
“Brenda took wonderful care of our dog, Zelda, during our 4 day trip. Zelda can be a finicky eater and also chews up paper, so leaving her with a caring and attentive Rover really helps us be able to travel with ease. Zelda did great under Brenda's care, and came home happy and healthy. I definitely recommend booking with Brenda and will rebook in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Devan was excellent with Pepper, and was extremely meticulous in his communication. We received constant text and photo updates during his stay and that’s one of the most important qualities when caring for a pet.”

Odin enjoyed our initial visit, and when we came back two months later for the drop off it was clear he was excited and happy to be there. We will absolutely ask them to watch Odin again.”
“Rachael was wonderful! She helped me out when I was stuck. I have an anxious dog at times and she seamed to transition well and did great with Rachael and her household! Thanks again!”
“Always appreciate Kathy's flexibility. We are confident Tessa is well cared for and loved. She is always excited to go to Kathy and tired after a play-filled stay!”
“Scooby was treated like a king! Kayla’s kids always made sure he was nice and comfortable. Her husband took him on runs and he was made to feel like part of the family. We will definitely use Kayla again.”
“I wish I could give 10 stars. Our house is cleaner then we leave it and she always has such a nice homecoming for us. She always goes above and beyond what we ask of her. We couldn’t ask for better. All our animals love her. I can tell in the many photos she sends. We love her!”
“Melissa and Allan took great care of Leo! He got lots of long walks, play and snuggle time. We also got tons of updates and pictures of our pup. I would definitely have them watch Leo again.”
“This was my first time having my pup stay with strangers and I’m so pleased that I chose Maria & Kalyan to watch her for the day! They were quick to respond and set up a meet & greet the day before I wanted to book. I appreciate the opportunity to see if my dog got along with theirs. Throughout the day, Maria & Kalyan sent plenty of updates, pictures, and videos to let me know how Luna was settling in. Thank you for treating her like your own and Luna opened up because of how patient, gentle, and kind they were to her. Thank you and I will definitely reach out again in the near future! ☺️”

She even noticed some issues with our snake and chinchilla and was happy to take care of those for us so we didn’t have to bother our neighbor. It meant a lot knowing someone dependable was there to check in on them.”

“Khayl is one of a kind . Our little Kitty passed away right before our trip. She came over though to take care of our fish for us. I love that we got videos of them and she went out of her way to also help clean the fish tank. Truly amazing.”

“Reanna is wonderful! She has professional training and is very attentive and conscientious. Lots of nice pics, and even gave my baby a free brushing! Very nice lady and she took good care of my baby. She was exhausted from play and fun when I picked her up. I highly recommend her.”
“We recently met Cathleen while out walking our two pups, as she was walking a pack of dogs. We were so impressed with how well-behaved her pack was that we got her information. We have since used Cathleen's pet boarding (one week), daycare, and training services, and have been very satisfied. Our dogs have come home happy and more settled after time with her, and her training is calm and effective.”
“Super friendly & attentive! Provided us with excellent updates of our Icky. It was very obvious how much they love and care for all the animals in their home. Thank you, Icky made good friends today!”
“I'm so happy to have found Maegan and Levi and their family. My dog had so much fun and came home all happy and tired after having lots of playtime. Thank you for taking such great care of our dog!”
“Thanks to Kayla & family we had a great first time experience on Rover! Super responsive, accommodating, and let me bring Frankie for a visit to meet them the day before. Her kids loved on our dog and she sent pictures of Frankie snuggling😊”
“Maria is amazing!! Our pups got to spend the day going for walks and enjoying the company of other dogs in thr comfort of Maria's home! I think one of our dogs actually got mad that she had to leave 😉”
“We appreciate you so much, Finni and Sophie appreciate you caring for them. They seem to have really enjoyed their day. Thank you so much for your kindness.”
“Tomas is a great host! Very accommodating for my two senior golden retrievers on short notice. Excellent communication and a warm atmosphere. Will absolutely be booking again. Thanks Tomas!!”
“Rachael was great! Sadie can be a little shy and nervous at first but she warmed up quickly to Rachael. We loved that she got a trip to the dog park too! Rachael had great communication and sent us some videos of Sadie playing.”
“Valerie was wonderful with Winnie and we were comfortable leaving her there knowing she was in good hands. It was Winnie’s first time away from home at 13 weeks and we were so glad she did well. Valerie was fantastic!”
“Hongyee is amazing with my two dogs. Especially Mr. Watson whom requires medication. My pups are resting peacefully after a wonderful day. I'm so grateful to have found her and look forward to many more play dates at her home! ❤️😀”
“This was our first time booking a sitter/boarder for Lola and we had a great experience with Robin. I was fortunate to be able to book with her on fairly short notice for a weekday. We went from a daycare visit to an overnight stay seamlessly. She accepted my unspayed dog, which was also very fortunate. Lola had a fenced in yard, gracious family with kid(s), a clean home, and animals to keep her company during her stay. Overall, I found her responsive, easygoing and very accommodating. I'd feel safe bringing Lola to her again in the future. :)”
“Christina was so amazing with my puppy and sent me lots of pictures and updates. George also became best friends with her dog which was so cute. He didn't want to go home at the end of the day! I will definitely bring George to doggy day care at Christina's again.”
“This was our pups’ first time with Anna. Although there was initial confusion between humans on drop off time, our pups had a nice time. I was a little nervous leaving them somewhere new, but Anna addressed my discomfort with lots of updates and photos. My pups were happy and tired when they came home. Plan to ask Anna to provide future day care and boarding. Thanks , Anna!”
“Charis is just what my puppy and I needed! She was so accommodating to my puppy who recently had stitches and required an e-collar. It’s relieving having reliable care. My puppy loved the experience & new friends and had thankfully burned her energy for the day. Will definitely book again!”
“We have a newly adopted senior dog with severe separation anxiety after the loss of his previous owner. Leaving him home alone proved unsuccessful. In searching for a solution we found Jennifer and Alex. We are so relieved Jennifer and Alex welcomed Jett into their home and provided a safe, loving, fun place. He socializes with their pets beautifully and we get to enjoy the texted photos showing him happy and at ease with their three dog pack.”
“Martha was so good with my elderly dog that I booked her to stay with Martha for a week! My dog was happy and tired, exactly what I want for her. I highly recommend Martha!”

“Absolutely fabulous. She brought her dog Jimmy and planned to leave him in her car, while she walked my Leo, but I asked her to take Jimmy with Leo if she thought she could handle two big dogs at once. She did. She could. My Leo had a great time and made a new friend. Perfect! The pictures were so adorable.”

About: My 3.5 y/o corgi, Kiko, would tell you I love all dogs, almost too much. For the last 13+ years, I’ve been fortunate enough to be responsible for at least 1, and most of the time 2 dogs of my own. While I have no formal training or certifications , I’m great with puppies still learning a routine, senior dogs who need a strict routine and everyone in between. I’m a very calm human so even nervous dogs are comfortable with me. I currently work from home, so I’m really good for dogs who require a little extra attention or struggle being left alone for long periods. I have a spacious two bedroom apartment with one flight of stairs and a nice balcony/patio for bird watching and sun bathing. When Kiko is here, we go on at least 3 walks a day, weather permitting, and make regular trips to various dog parks to see his friends throughout the week. When he’s not, we’ll still walk a lot but maybe fewer dog park visits unless that’s your dog’s thing too. If the cheapest sitter you can find is what you’re looking for, I’m not your person. However, under my watch, your dog will be safe, extremely well cared for, and loved like they are my own. Your dog will get the same care if I’m at your place and I share custody of Kiko, so his presence is not always guaranteed.
