“Kris and her family took great care of our Romy and Tilly. Tilly has lots of medical/health needs and she came back refreshed and well fed. Romy is a sweet boy but was having some behavioral issues and they took care of all of it and offered some suggestions for us to help!”
“Leslie is Max’s most favorite pet sitter, and because of that mine. My dog is shy of humans and often other dogs. Max settled into Leslie’s home and bonded with both Leslie and her two dogs. It was a comfort to me knowing Max was happy while I was away.”
“We highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter! She took care of our dog, Mr. Beckett while we were out of town. Not only did she provide excellent care for Mr. Beckett, but she also went above and beyond to ensure he felt loved and comfortable while we were away. We enjoyed the daily texts and pictures showing us he was safe and having a great time. Our nervousness about leaving Mr. Beckett for the first time was greatly reduced after we saw how well he was doing with her. Lisa would take him and her dog Ollie on daily adventures at the local parks. He enjoyed playing with Ollie and seemed very happy there. We will gladly use Lisa’s services in the future, she is trustworthy, loving and very in tune to our dog’s needs.”
“My honey and I have been using Ms. Dollys services to watch our two naughty 75 pound plus babies for a few months now. I think we have boarded our dogs a total 4 times with her. She’s always super accommodating and willing for emergency stay overs if your 4 hour drive from Oregon turns into 8 hours (life saver). Ms. Dolly handles my helicopter dog mom ways and assures me “ I got this” ( she really does) Our babies LOVE Ms. Dolly and even know her by name. They get some serious zooms when we leash up by the door and mention dolly town. Upon first arriving a few months ago I was so happy to see she has a full on kennel set up, rubber washable mats, large and heated areas to run and play on icky days. Toys, leashes you name it. We even forgot our food one time, no worries dolly had a back up that matched the very specific sweet potato and salmon diet we had going. It’s like having a family member watch your dogs but the family member is also super professional and also operates a full puppy bizniz. Upon arrival you will be asked to fill out a secondary form, shots, vet, food routine, emergency contact ect. Ms. dolly is seriously a pro. Drop off is always super emotional for us but Ms. Dolly always sends pics and videos. It seems like she hangs out with our dogs all day by how much play time they actually get. They even did a bonfire and hung out with our pups the way we would do in our backyard. Your dogs are family and it shows. Ms. Dolly has a full backyard where your dogs can run and play and party all night if they wanted. This is a serious plus for our very energetic pitbull and spaz German Sheppard. I would never choose another boarder. Thank you Ms. Dolly, we love you! - Brandon, Katy, Ghost and Ranger.”
“Lenore took great care of my dog. Scout and her dog, Rook, seemed to get along and it was great to know that she was staying in a “dog friendly house.” It can be hard to leave your dog behind with a stranger, but I felt confident that she would be well cared for.”
“Laura was communicative and reliable in preparation and during our pup’s care. Felt she went above and beyond to ensure our dog was happy and well cared for, from pickup/drop off offerings to navigating our holiday travel/availability. Would recommend her!”
“Susan was very communicative throughout the whole process. Our pup seemed to have a fantastic time and was well cared for. We appreciated the pictures sent while we were away. Definitely will have our pup stay with Susan again!”
“What I love about how Kelsey cared for our dog Jenny is the way she shows so much genuine care for her and her desire to provide the very best experience both for Jenny and for her owners. I really appreciated the level of communication - updates on how Jenny was doing / photos / consulting on a couple of Jenny’s health issues - thank you so much, Kelsey, for making this such a great experience!”
“The best dog sitter I have ever had! Kind, loving and responsible. Michelle kept updates every day a few times including pictures and videos. Great communication with pets owners and very professional.”
“I really don’t have the words to say how fabulous Bershka and her family is! They are wonderful people with a genuine love for animals and for helping others. Our cat was so well cared for during her long term boarding, that we were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home! I will 100%reach out to Bershka again for cat sitting and encourage everyone too as well!”
About: I grew up on a small organic farm, where we raised everything from sheep and goats to rabbits and quail. We also had 5 cats and a dog, so caring for animals was a part of my everyday life from a young age. That experience has given me the confidence to care for pets with different personalities and needs. As I got older, my love for animals stayed with me. Whether your pet loves long walks, play time or wants someone to keep them company i’ll make sure they feel safe and well cared for. I recently graduated college at WWU and I am currently working part time, so I can easily fit around your schedule and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I work Tuesday and Thursday and I am off in the afternoon. I live close to a few parks that are dog friendly and make a great walk. Inside, pets are free to roam throughout the house.
“Strider had a great time with Erin and her pets and family. Erin did an excellent job updating me on his activities, and the photos showed him having a great time in lots of cool locations--playing, walking, getting along with other dogs, etc. Erin made the pick up and drop off very easy and stress free and I had no worries about his well being whatsoever. I think he probably misses all the activity and company now that he's back home with us! I would definitely book with Erin again.”
“Kendra was so awesome! She was able to be flexible when I had a last minute change to my travel plans and took excellent care of my dog. He got to go to yoga and a hike around the bay! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitting.”
“Jennifer took great care of our family member Blue. (As with some human family members, our canine family member can be a handful.). Jennifer worked with our requests and Blue’s nuances/personality. Couldn’t be more pleased that we found Jennifer and were fortunate to have Blue hang out in a great environment, with customized attention. Five stars.”
“Jennifer was great with my dog, Cooper. He had a great time and slept for hours after he got home...a good sign of a good play :) We were gone for a week and I continually received pictures and videos of Cooper playing and having fun. She is an obvious dog lover and takes very good care of them. I would definitely recommend Jennifer and would use her again in the future.”
“My French bull dog has such a good time with Shawn's Beagle. He gets lots of exercise and love. Shawn also keeps me updated with pictures and messages so I can see how my dog is doing.”
“Adrienne took such great care of our dog Lyra! We were really happy to know she was with someone who was responsible, caring, and friendly. We appreciated the regular updates and knowing that our dog was well looked after while we were on vacation. Adrienne and her family were really sweet to Lyra and we’d happily rebook again.”
“Carl took such good care of my dog Harley while I was away for a week. I got updates the whole time and I can tell Harley felt really comfortable there (he’s a sensitive fella) and was well looked after when I picked him up. Thanks so much Carl!”
“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”
“Shannon is super communicative and quick to respond. Best sitter I’ve ever found on Rover. She actually walked my dog multiple times in one day while I boarded my pup with her. Shannon is really flexible with time and put a noticeable effort to be available at the times you need for pick up and drop off.”

“Marisa took great care of our cat once again! She’s great at making sure our cat is loved, played with, petted, and fed/watered which really sets us at ease so we can enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend Marisa, she’s excellent!!!”
“Lizz was absolutely incredible with our baby boys. 😸😸 Lizz - thank you SO much. They loved you and you brought such peace and joy to us all. Juju cuddling you proves your magic. DEFINITELY will book again and again!”
“Sophia was very attentive to the needs of my anxious and senior pups. She is great with communication, in time visits and sharing updates with photos. I highly recommend Sophia. Your pets will be in great hands!”
“Braelyn was absolutely fantastic! Not only did she take care of my two cats in the way that I asked, but she went above and beyond to get to know each cat and what they like. Each visit, she catered to their likes and dislikes to make sure they were happy and got some meaningful enrichment and interaction. I highly recommend Braelyn and will be using her services for my future pet sitting needs!”
“Emerson was so phenomenal with our kitties — they loved her and we had peace of mind knowing they were getting lots of playtime and love while we were away. She was so attentive and communicative, and she would be a wonderful presence for anyone’s fur babies. 10/10 would recommend and book again!”
“We are so happy to have found Karolina! She and our kitty seem to really love each other. She takes such good care of our house, and keeps our kitty happy while we are away. We have no worries when she is there.”
About: I have taken care of family and friends cats and absolutely love it. I have a cat of my own named Velcro. I want to make sure your cat feels supported during a time where their people are gone.
“Kami dropped by to walk our pups while we were away for the day, and they loved their time with her! She sent updates and photos, and the dogs were very well taken care of. Thank you, Kami!”
About: I love animals of all kinds! I grew up with dogs, a rabbit, and a guinea pig. As a professional pet sitter, I will give your pets my full attention and communicate clearly with you throughout. I know how scary it can be as a pet owner hiring a sitter, and I pride myself on being trustworthy and dependable! Most of my professional experience is as a nanny and working with individuals with disabilities, and I bring , empathy, and care to each of my roles. Outside of work, I love getting outside (and walking your pups!), crafting, and cooking! :)
“Autumn did great with both of my cats. One is pretty shy and she instantly warmed up to Autumn. The other has special needs including medicine management and Autumn completely accommodated him. She also sent pictures and reassurances to me letting me when she arrived and how the kitties were. Left the house in perfect condition. Will 100% book her again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for about 5 years, I have become the go to pet sitter for my friends with dogs when I am available to watch them! I am very detail oriented and will follow every instruction left with the dog for the best care possible. I work Monday-Thursday 8:30-3/4pm depending on the day as a real estate stager. My fiancé works from home & is always home (and is also a dog lover!) I am off work Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I can easily check on animals before and after work, and have three day weekends! If boarding, they’d have someone around all day. I am very respectful when coming to clients homes, I will always strive to leave things better than I found them. That being said, you can expect to come back to a clean house if you hire me as a your dog sitter! I always vow to keep the client updated if anything is amiss with their pet. I live in a house with a fenced backyard and no other pets, so if you are looking for hoarding, there’s plenty of room to roam!

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Leslie is awesome to work with. We started with a meet and greet and then Toast stayed with her for daycare. She was very communicative, and was wonderful with Toast. Sometimes he can get really excited and stressed with too much time with other dogs, but when I picked him up he was relaxed and happy. We'll totally book with her again.”
“Tami was fantastic. By coincidence, the first day we took our dog to Tami's place, there had been several inches of snow the night before. There was a small hill on the way to her house thaty sedan wasn't able to handle in those conditions. I let her know we were having trouble getting to her, and she drove out to meet us. Then she did the same when we came to pick our pup up from her. Really went the extra mile for us, and it was very much appreciated. Our dog came home happy and tired, and we'll definitely be going to Tami again in the future.”
“Holly and her family took such great care of our dog, Dottie. I couldn't be happier with the process - from the first message to the meet & greet to the doggy day care date. Communication was clear and easy, and I felt that safety and care were well prioritized. Having that reassurance that your dog is in good hands is honestly priceless. The fact she had a great time with Archie is the cherry on top. Dottie is already passed out sleeping (on the couch - sorry!) from all the fun she had. Will definitely book again. Also thank you for all the photos during the visit! They were very comforting for this anxious dog mom.”
“I had a fantastic experience with Alex as Rune’s dog sitter. Rune had a great time playing with her dogs, and she has a lovely space that’s perfect for hosting. Alex was extremely responsive, communicative, and took great photos throughout. Overall, I felt very reassured and happy having Rune stay with her.”
“Karrin is great, super great communication on the app and in person. She sent pictures, although I didn’t get them because I didn’t have WiFi on the whale watching excursion most of the time, until later but she sent me a lot of them for the short amount of time they were with her. She took great care of them. They are looking forward to going back to see her and her puppy tomorrow and spending the night with them!!!”
“Kendra was amazing! She is very kind and loving with pets. I received pictures of Princess throughout the day and Princess looked so happy! If you live in the Palm Springs area, or are visiting (like I was), and need someone to look after your fur babies, I would 100% recommend her. ❤️ Thank you, Kendra!”
“Jennifer took such great care of my dog Ziggy. She even gave him a bath and clipped his nails. We will definitely be using her again! We highly recommend Jennifer!”
“My dog had a wonderful time with Addison! He was friendly and communicative during pickup, drop off, and during care. When I picked up I could tell Puck had a wonderful time and Addison shared fun stories about his day. I'm planning to use him as a regular sitter for my pup!”
“Jennifer was great! Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Coast had such a great time hanging out with other dogs and had plenty of room to run and play”
“Alexis is the best! My girl came home from daycare so tired and happy from playing with the other pups. Pick up and drop off is so convenient also, and allows for a worry-free day.”
“Morgan was simply the best! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring, communicative and flexible first Rover sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable having Henry stay with her and her adorable dog Baby. She sent frequent pictures of their activities and ensured Henry got exercise, rest, healthy snacks and attention. We were only visiting Bellingham but wish she lived in our town - we would have her hang with Henry all the time! Cannot recommend enough. Thank you Morgan!”
About: Update: Based in Bellingham Washington, currently looking to board/housesit for aniamals in Bellingham. I am a full time dog trainer and animal caretaker. I am also available for hire for canine training. I am in the process of receiving my national professional degree for Large and Small Animal Accupressure. I am also available for hire on the northern coast of Oregon, available for animal sitting in-home. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up caring for neighborhood pups, giving them daily walks and love which fueled my admiration for them. I love spending time with animals because of how much we learn from each other. I spent summers working on a farm where I learned to work with all animals - great and small. From draft horses to cattle to chinchillas to fish to llamas to birds and bunny rabbits - I have worked with many types of animals. With dogs, I have cared for and train dogs from dachshunds to Great Pyrenees and so many breeds in between. I have worked with animals for over 15 years time as a caretaker. I volunteer at an animal shelter where I get to work with lots of different breeds. I have experience working with dogs which need a little bit of extra help on their manners or that have come from an abusive situation, creating a calm and trusting atmosphere for them where they can thrive. I find that not just do I love spending time with animals but that I grow as a person working with them. I am also available for pet sitting of animals other then dogs, as well. So please, go on your next vacation with your mind at ease, knowing your pets are well cared for and are on a vacation of their very own at our beautiful farm in northern Bellingham, complete with acerage, rolling fields and plenty of room to run and play. Wishing you a beautiful day!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I trained two labrador puppies for my family and took care of my sick senior supermutt for months until he passed. Volunteering at dog rescue lounges every week has incresed my skills of understanding dog behavior, controlling reactive pups, giving medication, bathing, walking, and overall canine knowledge. I am an online college student so all hours of my week are centered around pet care needs! I have all the time in the world to look after animals. I live in a fenced in apartment with plenty of grassy space for pups to explore. There are no pets in my home, so your animal will be the sole attention for my care.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, and have had experience watching friends and family dogs of all kinds. I will do everything to make sure your dog feels at home during their stay and gets all the love and exercise they desire. I work from home with flexible hours.

I will make my schedule fit into your dogs current routine. I have a fenced in yard that does not have any gaps throughout. Our house is very dog friendly as we like to make sure our dog lives his best life. Our dog will make sure to keep any dog guests feel at ease and to play whenever/if they want!

“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, dogs that have complicated medical needs to dogs that are lax and can do everything on their own.

I’ve housesat for multiple people over the years and have received much positive feedback! I’m working evening at a restaurant from 3pm to 8pm, so it doesn’t cause much shift in my capability to care for your furry friends! I am more than happy to stay at your place in caring for your pets or if easier/preferred, I can stop by intermittently throughout the day to give your pet the care it needs.

About: I've been doing various dog/cat sitting since I was 14! I love animals and am super active, would love to take your animals on any kind of walk they want!! I'm currently on summer break from College, so I have a lot of time on my hands! Was hoping to jump into this app to try and get some extra cash, and whats a better way then hanging out with animals all day?! Back in my hometown (Gold Bar, WA) I have two dogs that I adore, and I have been surrounded by animals my whole life! From hamsters to lizards, fish to dogs!!
About: I’ve had pets all my life. In my adulthood, I’ve had the pleasure of being a fur mom to a cat and two Australian Shepard’s. I’m experienced in overnight stays, walking schedules, and drops ins. I’m currently just freelancing so I’ll have plenty of time to commit to your pets. I can range anywhere from staying with your pets full time while you’re on vacation, to walking them on a schedule, or just checking in for potty breaks. I can be as flexible as you need me to be! I personally have experience with crating when needed, giving medications, and basic treat training.
About: I have always had a passion for animals. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, we love going on hikes, going to the park, basically anything. When I'm not at work, I'm always with my girls. I have worked in an animal shelter in the past, and I would love to get more experience working with animals. Who knows, this could be the direction I end up taking my career. I have a little bit of experience with house-sitting/dog-sitting. I am very comfortable handling multiple dogs at a time. My dogs are very friendly and I don't believe I have ever met another dog that they have not gotten along with. They are getting a little grumpy in their old age, but they’re still very sweet! I was working remote and was recently laid off due to outsourcing. So I am home with my dogs every day, we go on walks around our neighborhood and go to dog parks in the area. I have an unfenced yard and 2 dogs and 2 cats. My cats are indoor/outdoor, and they are not shy with dogs. We keep dogs on a lead if they aren’t great off-leash and we have a good little spot to throw the ball.
About: Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who needed a little extra attention and specialized care. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, including administering medications, preparing special diets, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so communication is always a priority. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I recently moved to Bellingham and currently have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. Whether you need regular walks or drop-in visits, I’m committed to being reliable, responsive, and providing consistent care for your pets. I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I’ll take the time to learn what works best for them. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I treat every home with respect by keeping things clean, locking doors, and making sure your pet is safe and content before I leave. My goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Leslie is Max’s most favorite pet sitter, and because of that mine. My dog is shy of humans and often other dogs. Max settled into Leslie’s home and bonded with both Leslie and her two dogs. It was a comfort to me knowing Max was happy while I was away.”
“My honey and I have been using Ms. Dollys services to watch our two naughty 75 pound plus babies for a few months now. I think we have boarded our dogs a total 4 times with her. She’s always super accommodating and willing for emergency stay overs if your 4 hour drive from Oregon turns into 8 hours (life saver). Ms. Dolly handles my helicopter dog mom ways and assures me “ I got this” ( she really does) Our babies LOVE Ms. Dolly and even know her by name. They get some serious zooms when we leash up by the door and mention dolly town. Upon first arriving a few months ago I was so happy to see she has a full on kennel set up, rubber washable mats, large and heated areas to run and play on icky days. Toys, leashes you name it. We even forgot our food one time, no worries dolly had a back up that matched the very specific sweet potato and salmon diet we had going. It’s like having a family member watch your dogs but the family member is also super professional and also operates a full puppy bizniz. Upon arrival you will be asked to fill out a secondary form, shots, vet, food routine, emergency contact ect. Ms. dolly is seriously a pro. Drop off is always super emotional for us but Ms. Dolly always sends pics and videos. It seems like she hangs out with our dogs all day by how much play time they actually get. They even did a bonfire and hung out with our pups the way we would do in our backyard. Your dogs are family and it shows. Ms. Dolly has a full backyard where your dogs can run and play and party all night if they wanted. This is a serious plus for our very energetic pitbull and spaz German Sheppard. I would never choose another boarder. Thank you Ms. Dolly, we love you! - Brandon, Katy, Ghost and Ranger.”
“Lenore took great care of my dog. Scout and her dog, Rook, seemed to get along and it was great to know that she was staying in a “dog friendly house.” It can be hard to leave your dog behind with a stranger, but I felt confident that she would be well cared for.”
“Laura was communicative and reliable in preparation and during our pup’s care. Felt she went above and beyond to ensure our dog was happy and well cared for, from pickup/drop off offerings to navigating our holiday travel/availability. Would recommend her!”
“What I love about how Kelsey cared for our dog Jenny is the way she shows so much genuine care for her and her desire to provide the very best experience both for Jenny and for her owners. I really appreciated the level of communication - updates on how Jenny was doing / photos / consulting on a couple of Jenny’s health issues - thank you so much, Kelsey, for making this such a great experience!”
“The best dog sitter I have ever had! Kind, loving and responsible. Michelle kept updates every day a few times including pictures and videos. Great communication with pets owners and very professional.”
About: I grew up on a small organic farm, where we raised everything from sheep and goats to rabbits and quail. We also had 5 cats and a dog, so caring for animals was a part of my everyday life from a young age. That experience has given me the confidence to care for pets with different personalities and needs. As I got older, my love for animals stayed with me. Whether your pet loves long walks, play time or wants someone to keep them company i’ll make sure they feel safe and well cared for. I recently graduated college at WWU and I am currently working part time, so I can easily fit around your schedule and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I work Tuesday and Thursday and I am off in the afternoon. I live close to a few parks that are dog friendly and make a great walk. Inside, pets are free to roam throughout the house.
“Strider had a great time with Erin and her pets and family. Erin did an excellent job updating me on his activities, and the photos showed him having a great time in lots of cool locations--playing, walking, getting along with other dogs, etc. Erin made the pick up and drop off very easy and stress free and I had no worries about his well being whatsoever. I think he probably misses all the activity and company now that he's back home with us! I would definitely book with Erin again.”
“Kendra was so awesome! She was able to be flexible when I had a last minute change to my travel plans and took excellent care of my dog. He got to go to yoga and a hike around the bay! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitting.”
“Jennifer took great care of our family member Blue. (As with some human family members, our canine family member can be a handful.). Jennifer worked with our requests and Blue’s nuances/personality. Couldn’t be more pleased that we found Jennifer and were fortunate to have Blue hang out in a great environment, with customized attention. Five stars.”
“My French bull dog has such a good time with Shawn's Beagle. He gets lots of exercise and love. Shawn also keeps me updated with pictures and messages so I can see how my dog is doing.”
“Adrienne took such great care of our dog Lyra! We were really happy to know she was with someone who was responsible, caring, and friendly. We appreciated the regular updates and knowing that our dog was well looked after while we were on vacation. Adrienne and her family were really sweet to Lyra and we’d happily rebook again.”
“Carl took such good care of my dog Harley while I was away for a week. I got updates the whole time and I can tell Harley felt really comfortable there (he’s a sensitive fella) and was well looked after when I picked him up. Thanks so much Carl!”
“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”
“My dog was so Happy, and she seems better behaved at the park, she plays with other dogs which she never did before. We are so happy, I feel like her anxiety is gone about other dogs. Chelsea is now our go to for a dog sitter. We are so happy with our dogs experience! Thank you Chelsea”
“The best dog minder ever. Our Toby loves playing with Archie and gets excited when I mention going over to stay with him. Holly has become almost family to us. Very reliable, friendly.”
“It’s always nerve-wracking to leave your pup with someone you’ve never met, but I wanted to put here that Jessica gave exceptional care to my dog when I couldn’t bring him on one of our hikes. When we dropped him off we were greeted by her dogs, who were very sweet and got along great with mine. Jessica was very communicative and sent me a photo of my dog snuggled on the couch with her kids, and he even slept in their bed (he loves kids). It put me totally at ease. Also, we were out of service for a while and our campground was an hour away, so we planned a pickup spot ahead of time. Jessica drove my dog to meet us so we didn’t have to travel so far from our campsite. Highly recommend, and if we’re out here in the future I would definitely use her again! Thank you!”
“Amber and her family took GREAT care of Lili!!! At first I was sad to leave her while I was on vacation, but Lili got a vacation of her own. Lili even got a beach day, and so many snuggles! Amber sent me tons of photos and I knew that Lili was in great hands the entire time. Thank you so much Amber for loving Lili like your own 😍😍😍😍😍 Lili can’t wait for her next stay with you!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our two dogs were so well cared for, and it was clear they were treated with love and attention the entire time. We appreciated the daily photos and updates. It made being away so much easier. We will absolutely be booking again with Danielle”
“Gabriella is an excellent dog sitter. My Maggie (dog) and Gabriella bonded instantly; from the moment I saw Maggie greeted her moving her tail and standing on her two legs; I knew i had chosen the right person to look after my dog. I received daily updates with photos while I was away, which gave me peace of mind. Thank you Gabriella. I recommend her immensely; if i could give her 10 stars; i would. I will ho back to her next time I go away.😃”
