“Elaine is fantastic! My dog was very comfortable staying at her house for a few days while I was away. She sent me pictures and updates every day and my pup came back happy. I'd book with Elaine again in a heartbeat.”

She made sure to take down important notes and always kept me updated on how things were going. I felt so comfortable knowing my baby girl was with someone I can trust and was getting daily attention. Thanks again for all you done Debbie and Ron! 🙂”
“We are repeat clients and each time , they have always gone above and beyond when it comes to taking care of our pup. We get daily updates/ photos and if there is any issues they communicate very well. They are also extremely flexible and understanding. Our pup loves it there, he gets so excited when we get there and doesn’t want to leave. I highly recommend and will always use them in the future!”

She was reliable, caring, and clearly treated them like her own. We really appreciated the updates and knowing they were in such good hands. We would highly recommend Moira to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter!”

“We absolutely will use Jared again. Our dog is 13 and takes meds 3 times a day. This is the first time we have left him with someone that wasn’t family or a close friend, but Jared did great. We lived all the pictures and could tell Ollie was living his best life!”
“Jennifer was kind and flexible, keeping our dog for an extra night when our flight back home was delayed. I believe our dog was very well cared for. We will look forward to working with Jennifer again.”

Danielle sent lots of pictures every day, and always responded to messages quickly. She was very alone and loving to my little dog, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog.”
“Maryorie was incredible! She took such great care of Korra and had excellent communication throughout the stay. We received plenty of pictures and updates, which made us feel completely comfortable leaving Korra with her. Korra seemed so happy and well cared for when we picked her up. We would absolutely book with her again!”

“When we were searching for someone to take care of Bella and Cody, Kristi was the first person we came across in the results. We didn't hesitate to reach out to her, and we're incredibly glad we did. Kristi provided a wonderful home for Bella and Cody, taking excellent care of them and keeping us updated every day. We couldn't be happier with her services. Highly recommended!”
“Leah & Chris were absolutely amazing, i was in communication with them the whole time and felt at peace leaving my dogs with them. Thank you guys so much 🐾🐾”

“Lajetta was so great. She is responsive, organized and really loves dogs. She took such good care of Yuzu and was very accommodating and patient with me when I had flight delays. I would happily leave Yuzu with her and her granddaughter anytime!”
“Kathy was so wonderful to work with! From pre-meet and greet communication, all the way until we picked up our pups, Kathy was quick and responsive. We were out of cell phone service range, but loved getting daily updates and pictures when we returned. Our dogs are transitioning to apartment life, so being able to enjoy the backyard with Riko and Lola made for a wonderful and entertaining weekend for them!”

“Kayden was there when I needed someone to watch my dogs last minute. He made sure of what the routine was with little direction. I’m very happy he was available to help me out!!”
About: As a lifelong cat enthusiast, I offer personalized, care that honors the unique temperament and independence of every feline. I understand that cats thrive on routine and familiarity, which is why I focus on maintaining their specific feeding schedules, litter box standards, and favorite play styles. Whether your cat is an affectionate lap-dweller who craves companionship or a shy soul who simply needs a quiet, respectful presence, I tailor my approach to their comfort level—never forcing interaction and always using a gentle, patient touch. My services include detailed wellness monitoring, fresh food and water, meticulous litter care, and daily photo updates to ensure you have complete peace of mind while away. I treat your home with the utmost respect and your cats like family, providing the specialized attention and 'cat-language' expertise they deserve to stay happy and stress-free.
“Bond is never happy to have his regular staff away, but he seemed happy when we got home so Emily apparently was a good substitute! Emily had good communication and sent photos daily.”
About: I am a French bulldog mom of 2 dogs. 4 yr old Remy and 6 yr old Wilbur. They are crazy and have a lot of energy. I grew up since I was little with dogs and cats in the home and have loved taking care of them. I let dogs be on the couch. I will take your dog on a lot of walks and have lots of play time. Cuddles on the couch too! I have a house and a good small fenced yard. According to family members my house is the doggy resort. l was also told my happy place is with dogs/animals. I couldn’t agree more! I only take 1 dog at a time so I can devote more time to your pup. I might consider two. Please let me know if you have any questions (about availability, pricing, etc.). I’m pretty easy going. If it shows I’m not available on my calendar feel free to still reach out, I might be available. Wilbur, Remy, and I are happy to meet you! **I will not take: large dogs (even if they’re under 40lbs), Alpha dogs, and dogs that pee inside** . I am currently on winter break from nursing school. That starts back up January 12th so I will not be here all day everyday once that starts up again. Currently though I work full time from home, and are home most of the time. I have a small fenced yard. I also have a doggy door built in the screen so pups can go in and out easily when they need to potty or bathe in the sun if I am not outside with them. Birds and squirrels frequent my backyard so if your dog likes to chase those and watch, they’ve got a front row seat! When I’m not home they can be crated if needed, or roam free inside, and I keep all doors locked. I also have security cameras inside and outside of my home. You can reach me any time, day or night with questions. I work full time from home. I am home majority of the time when not in school, attention to your pup is a top priority! I have a fenced yard and two dogs for your pet to enjoy! I also have cameras outside. Tons of toys and chew things for dogs to enjoy as well.
“Julia was very kind, responsive, and took such great care of our cat while we were away during thanksgiving weekend! It was so nice that our cat was able to stay in the comfort of our own home and it was a blessing knowing that she was in good hands! We really appreciate Julia’s kindness and hard work and would highly recommend her!”
“Took excellent care of our cats, including giving medicine, and went above and beyond (she unloaded our meal prep box!!). Communication was excellent. Will absolutely hire again.”
“Mandi is the best! My cat had a little accident and she was quick to take care of it. I feel much better knowing Mandi is my go-to person to check in on my cat! She’s great!”
“Rebecca is so dependable, reliable and caring. She fed and watered my diabetic cat over a weekend and administered her insulin shots. She truly was a lifesaver and i absolutely will use her again. Completely trustworthy.”
“Lexi was great! She helped us take very good care of Imo while we were traveling during the holidays. She was on time and great with our instructions and communications. Our cat Imo really liked her and enjoyed playing with her. She also took many cute photos of Imo :) Really appreciate your help last minute. Thank you!”
“Jocelyn was amazing! She made sure my pets had everything they needed. She played with them, fed them and notified me on important information. Would highly recommend. I wouldn’t feel better leaving my pets with anyone else!”
“So amazing and so loving with our fur baby! This is the second time we have had Autumn care for our fur baby, and we will continue to come back!☺️ thank you so much for being there while we couldn’t!”
“Amy sat with my cat Shadow while I went on a 10 day vacation with family recently. I received daily pics and updates from her and I returned to a clean house and a happy cat. Amy clearly loves cats, she's dependable, and she's a lovely person to boot.”
About: I have experience looking after my neighbors cats while they were on vacation. I checked in on them and made sure they were comfortable at home. I cleaned out and refilled their feeding bowls. I followed my neighbors instructions on their feeding schedule and checked in multiple times a day.
About: I love getting to know each cat’s personality—whether they’re a lap cat, a window watcher, or a “talk to me but don’t touch me” type. I follow your routine, keep their space clean, and give them the kind of care that helps them feel secure and understood.
“Sadie was so helpful making daily drop-ins on our cat, while we were away. She was gracious in having to clean up quite a few messes he made, she made sure his food, water, and litter box were kept fresh, and she spent some time with him each day to keep him from getting too lonely. She was very easy to communicate with during our trip. Thank you, Sadie for taking such good care of our kitty!”

“Larissa was an absolute lifesaver when I needed last-minute doggy daycare for Dryden for a couple of days. She was extremely accommodating on short notice and made the entire process completely stress-free. She kept me updated throughout the day with lots of photos, which gave me total peace of mind. Dryden became fast friends with her dog, Appa, right away. I think having Appa around really helped calm him down and made it super easy for him to get acclimated and feel right at home. He came back happy and well-cared-for, and I’ll definitely be reaching out to Larissa again in the future!”
“Elaine is great. I had to change my appointment a few times due to work and she was very understanding and flexible. She was able to set up a playdate and we came over and met her, her family and pets. Very communicative throughout the day. I have an elderly pup with bladder cancer and Elaine really cared for her and asked questions throughout the day. I highly recommend and will be using her again.”
“Phoenix and Ollie love coming over for the day! They love the back yard and phoenix loves all the toys he can get his paws on! Matt and his wife are super sweet and the boys love going over!”
“Maryorie was friendly and great with communication. It was my first rover experience and it was nice to get a picture update after drop off and report about how he did at the end of the day. I appreciate how she did a meet and greet before hand to ensure my dog and her dogs would get along and so that we could get to know her. Looking forward to booking with her again!”
“Debbie has watched Milo many times for me and I feel comfortable and confident every time I drop him off. She takes great care of him and every photo I get it looks like Milo is having a great time! Any and every time I'm in the Vancouver area I send Milo to her ❤️❤️”
“Shadie was really helpful and communicative both while scheduling and during our pups’ stay with her. They came home tired and happy, which is all I could ask for. Will definitely use again and highly recommend!”
“Dominique has been great to have as someone we trust to watch our puppy. She has been very easy to communicate with and flexible with her time which we are grateful for since sometimes our schedules don’t always go as planned. I can tell our dog Kali is loved and has a great time there when I pick her up. There’s usually other friendly dogs there throughout the day that Kali can play with and it’s always nice to hear she’s making friends. We will definitely be back!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jared is exceptional. Jared took wonderful care of my two dogs, Sebastian and Francesca, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we connected, his communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring. He was attentive to their needs, patient, and genuinely kind, exactly the kind of person you hope to find when trusting someone with your fur babies. Sebastian and Francesca were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up, which speaks volumes. It’s obvious Jared takes his role seriously and treats animals with real respect and care, not just as a job but as a responsibility. I would absolutely trust him again without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, top-tier pet care. Thank you, Jared🌹you truly went above and beyond.”
“April was great to work with. She had excellent communication throughout the day and was able to watch Daisy on short notice. Daisy seemed comfortable and well cared for. I would definitely recommend April to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
About: I am a dog mom to a young Mini Aussie and Cavalier mix. I have raised her since she was 8 weeks. I also have experience puppy and dog sitting for my friends and neighbors dogs. This includes walks, feeding, playtime, medication, cleaning, and car rides. I have volunteered at local animal shelters to take dogs on neighborhood walks to enrich their day and to help them get adopted. I have taken dogs on hikes and are aware of walking safety and managing dog interactions. I have a flexible work schedule as I work from home. I can be available for a single walk per day or multiple drop in visits per day. Monday and Thursday 9:30am-11am are the only times I will not be available. I can be available to a limited amount of repeat visits per week. Please reach out regarding schedule and booking questions. I understand as a dog parent that sometimes you are needing immediate pet care. I am a reliable, generous and fun dog mom. I will be offering drop in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting from my own home. My home has a fenced outdoor space, open space downstairs and upstairs for dogs to play. I have a very social and friendly dog that gets along with every dog she meets. We have many blankets and you are welcome to bring over any of your dogs favorite beds and comfort toys. I always have kibble and dog treats and feeding bowls on hand. Please feel free to bring your own as well.
“Haleigh has sat Rocky on a few occasions now when I've been in town for work and can't take him into the office. Appreciate her responsiveness and I know my pup is in trusted hands!”
About: If you are looking for a pet sitter who genuinely loves animals and provides a safe, active environment, you are in the right place! I have years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals—from dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes to chickens and other small critters. Animals are a natural part of my life, and I know exactly how to tailor my care to fit your pup's unique personality, whether they are high-energy zoomers or low-key cuddlers. To give you extra peace of mind: I spent years being trusted by families as a nanny for three different households. You can rest assured that your beloved furry family member is in incredibly capable, highly responsible hands. The best part? A fenced yard! We have a spacious, securely fenced yard with plenty of room to run. Whether your dog wants to burn off energy playing fetch or prefers to leisurely sniff around and lounge in the fresh air, they will absolutely love the outdoor space we have to offer. Working from home gives me total flexibility to adapt to your dog's established routine. I am here throughout the day to provide constant supervision, mid-day desk cuddles, and frequent potty breaks in the yard. Your pup will enjoy a highly attentive, stress-free day that perfectly balances companionable downtime with plenty of active outdoor play. I believe trust is built through absolute transparency and a controlled environment, which is why I only host two or three compatible dogs at a time. Our home is a calm, secure haven, free from the chaos of large kennels, where your dog's unique safety needs are closely monitored. To keep you connected, I provide consistent, detailed updates and photos so you always know they are safe, happy, and thriving.
About: I have availability 24/7 to care! Even as a kid, I’m the one who spent the most time with our pets! Will follow your example instructions just how you want! I’m currently not working, so I have all the time to take care of your pet. No schedule conflicts, so you don’t have to worry :) I have a small place, without much to do outside. But there’s a park less than 3 minutes away for walks. There are stairs to my place as I live on the second floor
“We had a last-minute opportunity to see our son-in-law perform at The Watershed Festival. We knew it would be a VERY long day and wanted our babies to have more than the occasional visit from our neighbor. Shell responded very quickly to our request. After a meet-greet, we all agreed that it was a good fit for everyone. Shell accommodated our need for a very early drop off and a very late pick up. Her home was quiet and welcoming, ensuring a smooth transition. She took very good care of our babies, even bending her rules a bit about no pets on the couch, so that our oldest one was comfortable and just out of reach of the other energetic pups. Thanks, Shell for helping us be proud parents of our "two-leggeds" by taking such good care of our "four-leggeds"!”
“Frances was so amazing she went above and beyond for us, she came and picked up Dolly to work with our schedules. She also took her on a walk and then later to the dog park. Just when I would wonder how they are doing she would shoot me a video or a picture to let me know how their day was going. I would 100% recommend Frances to friends and family who love their pets and need a reliable human to care for them. Francis next time we are in need you will be my 1st call!!!!!! Thank you so much! Side notes~Great communication, her home is lovely and clean.”
“Lajetta is the best! She frequently watches my dog and he gets so excited to see her and loves going over there. He usually doesn’t want to leave when I go pick him up. She does a great job caring for Tony.”
“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party. We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected. Our fur babies were obviously very comfortable in their home because they are so calm in their crates in the car at the moment. We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”

“Emily did great for a first meeting and walk with our pup. She can be slow to warm up and Emily was patient and very honest and communicative with how the visit went. Appreciate the extra step of cleaning up a mess our kitties made that wasn’t on the bill!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. As a stay at home mom, I have plenty of time to watch your loved ones while you’re away. We have an active but relaxed home. We currently have one extremely friendly, well socialized shepherd mix dog who gets along with every dog he meets. Over the years I’ve cared for friends’ and family’s dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. My kids love dogs and are able to let new dog friends acclimate without pestering. We walk the neighborhood every night and play in the backyard. I am a stay at home mom with elementary aged kids. Especially during the school year, I am almost always at home. My husband also works full time from home so there is always someone here to keep an eye on things. We have a great schedule in place for our dog in terms of potty breaks and feeding. We have a fully fenced back yard and a lovely neighborhood full of sidewalks to go on long evening walks. In our home, dogs are part of the family. They are allowed on the couch and sleep in our bedroom. Our dog has a nice schedule for feeding and going potty and he loves sunbathing on the back patio.
About: I've spent the last 14 years working in veterinary medicine, caring for pets through every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior companions and pets with medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, monitoring pets with chronic health conditions, and recognizing when something doesn't seem quite right. What I enjoy most is getting to know each pet as an individual. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I believe those details matter. My goal is to provide the same level of thoughtful, compassionate care I'd want for my own pets, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in capable hands. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care, plenty of attention, and regular updates throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or simply having someone nearby for company, I'm happy to adjust my care to fit their routine. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs before every booking. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have plenty of opportunities for play, enrichment, rest, and affection in a calm environment. To help keep everyone safe—including my own two dogs—I currently only accept small dogs (up to 30 lbs) for boarding and daycare, and I require a meet-and-greet before every boarding stay. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I do my best to keep their daily routine as consistent as possible while respecting your home and following your instructions carefully.
“Michelle did an awesome job caring for Gambit! We had a medical scare the day we planned to drop our dog off with Michelle. Gambit had to have a quick surgery which resulted in him being drowsy, being prescribed medication and a patient after care routine. Although this wasn’t initially expected for Michelle to have to deal with when originally booked, she accepted the additional responsibility without question and was able to carry out the needed extra care without issue. This really helped reduce our stress and anxiety of our dog’s well being while we were out of town. If it was any other rover, we probably would have canceled our trip! Michelle is extremely responsive, punctual, nice and a joy to interact with. Would highly recommend!”
“Claire has been a night in shining armor, our dogs were not getting out due to our busy schedule. She has been very patient with our puppy and has gone above and beyond by helping train our dogs to wait, heel, and sit. They come home happy and exhausted after each walk. Claire is a joyful personality, responsible, honest and dependable. Highly recommend.”
About: I grew up in a family that owned dogs all of my life. I also pet sat (both cats and dogs) for many family friends over the years, even helping look over a dog team once when I lived in Alaska. Furthermore, I am capable of going on long walks or short ones, playing fetch or tug of war for extended periods, or just chillin' at home providing all the belly rubs and scratches as possible. I am based in Vancouver and I currently work a part time retail job in Portland. My retail job's schedule is not consistent and I may need to be at work for 6 to 8 hours on a particular day, sometimes during an afternoon or evening feeding time. Luckily, my schedule gets posted three weeks out. So, I'll know which days I will be totally free to hang out with pets. I'll make sure to communicate with you on which days I will be gone for a long stretch and make sure it fits within your pets schedule. I am flexible for how will care for your pet in your home. If your pet requires a lot of attention and play time, then I am more than willing to take them to the backyard or nearest park to let them play to their hearts content. Or, if your pet is shy or getting older, I can certainly give them their space.

“Cassie, is amazing! Our dog gets soooo excited to see her when she comes. She has been so flexible and adaptive to our dogs needs. I know she is in good hands when we are away!!!”
“Steele is great at communicating! My dog warmed up to him so quickly. I have a hectic work schedule and he has been so kind about being flexible to make it over for a walk/potty break.”
“YAY! So grateful I found Elaine. I twisted my ankle and she was there helping me every day for 7 days so that I could rest. Her energy, kindness, flexibility, communication, and love of animals is so evident. I would let Elaine take care of all of my animals at any moment. I will absolutely have her walk Ginger again. And also boarding!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats since for almost 15 years. I also grew up with cats and dogs in our family home. My family currently has a 2 year old Golden Retriever named Lily and 2 cats named Dobby and Luna (can you tell we’re Harry Potter fans? 😉). Before our Golden Retriever, we had a Staffordshire Terrier mix named Maggie. We had her for 8 years - she died unexpectedly in August 2021. While we had Maggie we also had 2 cats named Oscar and Felix. My husband and I moved in together in July 2009 and since then we have never not owned at least 1 animal at any given time. We are obviously an animal-loving family! I have always loved dogs and their unconditional love and companionship. They’ll never judge or ridicule, just love you. In addition to our dog and 2 cats we have 2 human children - our son Jaxson is 8 and our daughter Addie is 5. My husband is a plumber and I have been a stay at home mom for 5+ years now. My son will be in 3rd grade in the Fall and my daughter is starting kindergarten. Thus, I will have more free time during the day now to help with your beautiful and lovable pets! I’m currently a full-time stay at home parent but my youngest child will be starting kindergarten in September, so I will have lots more time to play with your pups and take them for walks, or even provide doggy daycare at my home. I can also provide drop-in visits for cats. I can also provide house-sitting but only primarily on the weekends. I will primarily be available Monday-Friday from 8:30am-2:30pm but I could also do evenings and weekends depending on my kids’ activities schedules. For doggy daycare services, have a fully fenced yard and a very friendly and non-aggressive Golden Retriever who loves playing with other dogs. We also have a large soft crate if your dog needs to be crated if I need to leave the house for awhile. For dog-walking, drop-ins, and house-sitting I will treat your home with the utmost respect and follow any and all rules and procedures of your home. I want you to feel secure and comfortable at all times with me being in your home and taking care of your beloved pets.
“Jocelyn is prompt, friendly, reliable, and our pup loves going on walks with her. I feel like I can very safely trust my dog in her care, which means everything. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, horses, rabbits, mice, fish, land crabs, amphibians (aqua/land), guinea pigs, and more. I’m comfortable handling pets of all sizes, personalities, and temperaments—whether they’re energetic, calm, reactive, nervous, or affectionate. I’m skilled at reading animal behavior, staying calm in challenging situations, and adapting to each animal’s individual needs. My priority is always to create a safe, comfortable environment where every animal feels secure, respected, and well cared for. Sorry for the lack of photos, I usually stay present with the animals! While I do clean up while I’m over at your house, i also offer housekeeping for extra. If you need! Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I’m able to plan my day around visits, feedings, walks, medication administration, and check-ins. I’m organized, reliable, and understand the importance of consistency in an animal’s routine. Whether a pet needs early morning care, midday attention, evening visits, or overnight stays, I communicate clearly about my availability and ensure I can fully commit to the care schedule before accepting a booking. I treat every pet as a priority and make sure they receive the time, attention, and care they need. I provide attentive, low-stress care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of opportunities to play, explore, and relax. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and any special care needs to help them feel settled and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible, providing companionship, exercise, supervision, and personalized attention while respecting household rules and preferences. I’m comfortable working with pets of all sizes, ages, energy levels, and temperaments, and I focus on creating a positive experience where every animal feels safe, understood, and well cared for.
“Alura was available for me in a pinch and was flexible and kind while we sorted out the weekly walk schedule. She followed the instructions I left without any issues. We, including our beloved Darwin, are so grateful for the love. Highly recommend her service!”
About: I have availability 24/7 to care! Even as a kid, I’m the one who spent the most time with our pets! Will follow your example instructions just how you want! I’m currently not working, so I have all the time to take care of your pet. No schedule conflicts, so you don’t have to worry :) I have a small place, without much to do outside. But there’s a park less than 3 minutes away for walks. There are stairs to my place as I live on the second floor
About: I have taken care of cats since I was young and for the past three years, I’ve taken care of my own puppy. I love all animals, providing for their needs, and giving them the love and attention they deserve.

“Elaine is fantastic! My dog was very comfortable staying at her house for a few days while I was away. She sent me pictures and updates every day and my pup came back happy. I'd book with Elaine again in a heartbeat.”
“Larissa was the perfect person to take care of my dog. She sent me updates and photos throughout the entire time. I felt assured that my dog Mac was in good hands and at no point was worried. I’d happily leave my pup with Larissa again!”
“Debbie was fantastic! I was so happy Buttercup had the best boarding experience while we were gone on our trip. She made sure to take down important notes and always kept me updated on how things were going. I felt so comfortable knowing my baby girl was with someone I can trust and was getting daily attention. Thanks again for all you done Debbie and Ron! 🙂”
“Moira was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She took great care of our old dog and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and clearly treated them like her own. We really appreciated the updates and knowing they were in such good hands. We would highly recommend Moira to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter!”
“We don’t trust any other sitter than Shadie. We can relax and enjoy our vacations knowing our dog is in good hands and he’s having so much fun. He is treated like part of her family - I highly recommend Shady!”
“Annabelle was a great dog sitter! She was very responsive from the beginning and kept in touch with updates throughout the week. We highly recommend her and her family to watch your pup!”
“We absolutely will use Jared again. Our dog is 13 and takes meds 3 times a day. This is the first time we have left him with someone that wasn’t family or a close friend, but Jared did great. We lived all the pictures and could tell Ollie was living his best life!”
“Danielle was an excellent sitter for my high energy Scottish Terrier. My doggo was very happy there playing in the big yard with all of the other dogs. Danielle sent lots of pictures every day, and always responded to messages quickly. She was very alone and loving to my little dog, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog.”
“Maryorie was incredible! She took such great care of Korra and had excellent communication throughout the stay. We received plenty of pictures and updates, which made us feel completely comfortable leaving Korra with her. Korra seemed so happy and well cared for when we picked her up. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Our dog is very happy when I pick her up! Araceli is very good at communicating and I had a great experience boarding my dog with her. Definitely will have appointments with Araceli again.”
“Leah & Chris were absolutely amazing, i was in communication with them the whole time and felt at peace leaving my dogs with them. Thank you guys so much 🐾🐾”
“I have two dogs, one of which has separation anxiety pretty bad. Hannah was able to make them feel safe and comfortable. She sent frequent updates and was flexible and communicative. She was by far the best pet sitter my boys have stayed with.”
“Kathy was so wonderful to work with! From pre-meet and greet communication, all the way until we picked up our pups, Kathy was quick and responsive. We were out of cell phone service range, but loved getting daily updates and pictures when we returned. Our dogs are transitioning to apartment life, so being able to enjoy the backyard with Riko and Lola made for a wonderful and entertaining weekend for them!”
“Michelle (Ching yin) took such great care of our pup, Salty! She was very communicative and accommodating to our changing schedule. Salty was happy and tired after the visit. Can’t wait to book again!”
“Steve loved his stay with Erica and Elohim! They’re very friendly and communicative. I was hoping for a sitter without other dogs because my guy can be a little reactive as he gets older. I appreciated the updates and photos each day. We’ll definitely look to book again when I’m out of town nexxt and highly recommend!”
“My Bessie is a regular with Dominique! She is so sweet and loving, we feel great leaving our pup there. Dominique has two very sweet dogs of her own, so each time I drop Bessie off I feel like she is having a girls weekend. She gets all the playtime, walks and snuggles she needs. Dominique keeps connected with lots of sweet photos and updates. Highly recommend!”
“Barry was great! He met with me quickly, his home and yard are wonderful. I like how he only allows one dog at a time. Happy to have made the contact, I’ll be reaching out again”
“Lisa was very communicative, detail oriented and clearly cared very well for Dezzie. Her house was clean and safe, with a lovely yard. During her stay, Dezzie got all her medications, proper diet and plenty of exercise - and I received lots of photos! I think she probably had a more fun time away than I did! Lisa was also helpful and flexible about meet-n-greet, pick up and drop off times. Highly recommend, and will use her dog sitting services again!”
“Steve did a wonderful job taking care of Tato! He was very responsive to our messages and Tato got plenty of play time with the other dogs that were there! Thanks again!”
“Marta did an amazing job watching our 1 year old puppy!! Our dog Nami had a wonderful time playing with the other dogs and came back to us well exercised and healthy. We also received multiple pictures throughout the stay which was wonderful to see that Nami was having the time of her life. The next trip we take we will definitely be sending Nami back to Marta. :)”
