“Yolanda and Rashad’s years of experience caring for all kinds of dogs showed in their confidence taking in our sweet, old pup, and managing him among many others. Their kind, calm demeanor also made him feel comfortable and welcome in their home. Best of all, he returned to us, healthy and well.”

“This is the first time we have boarded our dogs with Maria and Nayibe. We were so pleased with the regular updates they provided. Maria and Nayibe were so kind and caring, always attentive to our dogs' needs. They kept us informed on how our dogs were doing and sent pictures daily. They even went to great lengths to ensure our dogs ate well, which was a common concern for them when we were away. Our dogs were so comfortable that they were in no rush to leave. We will definitely use Maria and Nayibe's boarding services again.”


“MJ was great, my usually shy skittish dog immediately felt comfortable and started playing with the other dogs staying there. MJ clearly understands animals”

“Monique was awesome! She’s an expert in introducing all the pups to each other and making sure play is safe. We received regular (sometimes hilarious) updates that assured us that Coltrane has happy and healthy. The space is amazing and Coltrane loved it! We also received a report of how Coltrane’s time went, which was great. I would definitely recommend Monique and book with her again.”

“This was our first time using Rover. We had last minute work done in our house where the cats had to be gone. Aidan and Dani were amazingly patient with our four cats who have quite unique personalities.”

“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”

“Katie and her family have watched our dog a few times. Our dog loves it at Katie's. She runs up to the door all excited to stay. Katie is very responsive and has been flexible when needed. She is a great communicator and makes it so I don't have to worry about our dog while we are away.”

“Kim was amazing with Millie! Millie stayed with her for three nights, and Kim kept in touch and sent us pictures every day. It looked like Millie had a wonderful time and was very happy and comfortable with her. We had such a great experience and would definitely have Millie stay with Kim again!”

“Angela was absolutely amazing! I received multiple pictures a day of my dog enjoying spending time with her pups and family. She was treated her as if she was a part of the family. In fact, when I went to pick her up she didn’t want to leave ha! I would most definitely book Angela again in a heart beat. -Allie”

“Sherry was so amazing in accommodating my senior pup within her home. Tedi was very comfortable and was able to enjoy all of her favorite things with Sherry from naps on the couch to car rides. I appreciated the photos and updates I received and could not have felt more comfortable being away from Tedi for an extended period of time. Definitely will be asking for a repeat stay should her schedule allow!”

“Doreen is such a loving person who took wonderful care of my dog, Daisy ?. The second time I went back Daisy couldn’t wait to go in the front door. When Daisy is there I don’t worry about her at all, I know she is having fun and being well-cared for! Thanks, Doreen!”


“Clark had so much fun staying with Andrew and his family! They have a big fenced in backyard and I got plenty of pictures of Clark playing :) definitely would book again!”


“Ashley and her family did an excellent job watching my two pups. Both seemed to be enjoying themselves while I was away. I got updates and pictures periodically so I was always in the know of what they were up to. Ashley was accommodating with time drop off and pick up. I appreciate the time and love you spent with my babies.”

“Elizabeth and her family took great care of our dog for 3 nights! We appreciated the photo updates and thoughtful communication. Would definitely recommend Elizabeth to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter!”


“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”

“Julia and Colin were great! They communicated well and even met Toast before boarding! We received a lot of pictures where our dog was smiling and having a good time with them. We will definitely book again!”

“Laura did a great job with my pup again! I know that he is well cared for and safe when she is taking care of him. He always has a great time with her dog Diesel and goes on nice walks. I love how he always comes back to me good and tired! I highly recommend Laura and I will definitely be using her again!”

“I can't be thankful enough. He was not only perfect in taking care of my 8 month old puppy, he was flexible in timing as well if you want an ease of mind I do 100% recommend him.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier with Dawn and her husband! They were so welcoming at our Meet and Greet and made us feel very comfortable leaving Zeke overnight. She sent us updates and pictures of him having a blast in their back yard, so I could tell Zeke was having a great time. I highly recommend Dawn and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”

“We had a great experience with Danny. He was patient with our rescue cats and very communicative throughout. Lots of photos and video which we really appreciated. We would gladly use his services again!”


“Angela was amazing! We have two cats, one of which is quite afraid of new people and hides under the couch. Angela was able to draw him out and earn his trust very quickly, which meant we could relax on vacation without worrying that he was spending an extended period of time with no snuggling, petting, or playing (which has happened in the past with other sitters). We were thrilled!”


“Kim has great communication and attention to detail. She clearly cares for animals dearly so I felt very comfortable having her check in on my cats. She gave nice updates and pictures.”

“Travis stopped by for a short meetup and walkthrough before my trip. He became fast buddies with my kitty, and also put me at ease knowing my kitty would be in great hands while I was away!”


“Ilene was fantastic and went above and beyond my expectations which is so greatly appreciated! Ilene’s communication and timeliness is perfect and even provided me with adorable pics & videos of playtime with Rozz which warmed my heart while I was away. Ilene’s love and care for animals is exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend Ilene for any of your pet care needs!”


“Jan was great!! Super friendly- sent me pictures of Milo. I will definitely schedule again with her and recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter! Thanks:)”

“Suzi was great. Jumped in at the last minute when another sitter canceled. Daily updates were personable and detailed. Bogey was a happy camper when I returned. Highly recommend!”


“Rachelle was a very nice, considerate and tidy sitter to have in my home. She let us know all was well and responded quickly to our texts. When we returned home Kikki came downstairs to greet me and went and sat near Rachelle ‘s feet. So she was definitely Kikki approved.”


“Anna is the best. I had to go on a 21-day trip and was nervous about leaving my cat alone for such an extended period of time. But Anna eased all my anxieties with her quick replies, genuine care for my cat, and all the professionalism you would expect from a good sitter. I get daily photos/videos and came back to a happy and healthy cat that appeared to have thoroughly enjoyed Anna's company. Will definitely rebook Anna if I have to travel again.”


“This is the first of three bookings with Aidan and Dani and I was really happy, my cat Gerard was friendly to them, perhaps he recognized caring souls. He was well fed and every day we stayed in touch to report about the visits. Definitely recommend them for in visit situations. My cat does not like going elsewhere so having Dani and Aidan coming to my house was a plus.”


“Teanna was great! We needed a last minute sitter and she was very flexible with a meet and greet and coming to feed and water our cats. She was also very understanding when I had reception issues when trying to reply to messages. My cats were well cared for, and I would book Teanna again if I ever have the need. Thank you so much! ?”


About: I have taken care of cats of every age nearly my entire life. I currently have 3 long-haired cats with all very different personalities! I am knowledgeable in cat body language and how to respond to certain cues a cat is showing me. I am a big fan of using Fear Free tactics to gain the trust of any cat I interact with!

“Auria was a competent, caring, and thoughtful dog sitter. She sent us numerous pictures and detailed updates as to how Lily was doing. I would highly recommend her and have already booked another stay! We truly felt as though Lily was in excellent hands.”

“MJ was amazing with Bobo and warmed up to him in such a short amount of time (usually it takes a while and even days!) He knew how to read Bobo and knew exactly how to interact with him. Definitely will be seeking out MJ to look after Bobo many more times.”

“Thank you so much to Kim! Kim was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog Mushi today. She's very friendly and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our lab mix rescue with her while we enjoyed the Milwaukee Zoo. She walked Mushi and also gave us updates as well as pictures. I highly recommend her to watch your dog.”


“My 4 month old puppy had a fantastic morning with Auria and her 2 dogs. Elliot was able not only to socializie with adult dogs, but also a soon to be 4 year old grand-daughter. Sounds like my puppy did very well -- now I can add that to his Rover profile!! Auria's dogs did not bark at Elliot when we arrived and were very relaxed, yet full of energy, and friendly to our puppy. I hope that when the need arises we can bring Elliot over again. I wouldn't hesitate to make it a regular dog day care, since it was such a positive experience (for everyone!). Thank you Auria for being available when I was looking for daycare the night before.”

“Jan provides excellent care of Hercules. I get photo updates throughout his stay and messages as necessary. Herc is always exhausted and ready for a nap after a full day of play.”

“star had a great stay! communication was excellent, and i felt completely comfortable leaving her in their care. i especially appreciated how understanding they were when i reached out after her stay to share some new information about her recent hip dysplasia diagnosis. they genuinely cared about her well being, and i wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. thank you for taking such great care of my girl! 🫶”

“Linda was super accommodating for a last minute booking, she was very flexible with the pick up and drop off times and she was very kind to us and amazing with our babies!”

About: After several busy months on Rover with almost nonstop bookings, I have had such great stays with dozens of dogs, no accidents in the houses, no bites, no runaways, zero negative experiences. I feel confident that with me, you’re getting a premium stay for your pets for a really good value! I’m incredibly hands on and present with the pets, with them 24/7 and very adaptable with the different needs and personalities. I’m attentive with different care instructions and really shower the animals with positive attention 😊 I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting because it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.
“Jessica is our favorite sitter! When I pick Mickey up from a stay with Jessica, he is happy and tired from his walks with her, in a very good way. She is so kind and gentle with him, I know my senior pup is in very good hands.”

“Erin is the best! So is her furry kid Woodson! She took my doggie in at the last minute on a snowy morning and he was so happy when we picked him up! She sent lots of updates the whole day, too! We will be asking her to watch King again??? THANK YOU ERIN!! We hit the jackpot finding you!”


About: I helped raise my own two family dogs and ensured that they were always walked, bathed, fed, and happy. It's also a habit of mine to go take the extra step like wiping my dogs and make sure they are clean after they've been outside. I've also taken care of my neighbor's dogs alongside our own family dogs, so I have experience handling multiple pets at once. I work full-time, Monday through Friday, while working from home 2-3 days a week. I also go to workout classes in the evening. Normally, if working from home, I take the dogs out for a walk in the morning. On other days, I take them for a walk in the evening. I normally take pets out 3 times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and night. I make sure the dogs have a dedicated spot for food and bed. I have both a park and a dog park, 5-10 minutes away from my apartment, which I can take the pets to for a walk or some dog play time. There are also multiple yard-like grass areas where the dogs are meant to do their business. If pets stay with me for longer than two weeks, I bathe them every other week.
About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and patience I have for animals.

About: Hi! I’m Andrew, and I provide dependable, attentive, one-on-one care for dogs. My goal is simple: to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities over the years, including family dogs, regular clients, and dogs I’ve walked and cared for in home settings. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and adapting my approach to what helps them feel most secure. I’m especially attentive on walks. I pay close attention to body language, keep dogs safely managed around distractions, and believe that calm, consistent handling helps dogs build confidence. I enjoy providing both physical exercise and mental engagement while making sure each walk is a positive experience. Reliability and communication are important to me. I’ll send thoughtful updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing, and I’ll always treat your home and your pet with respect. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet companionship, or simply keeping their normal routine, I’m happy to meet their individual needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

“Jessica is amazing! Our dog Gabby stayed with her during the day and they got to enjoy nice walks, go to the park and get lots of play time. Jessica kept us updated during the day and sent us lots of cute pictures. Gabby is excited to see her again!”

“Genesis is always reliable and takes excellent care of my pup! She truly loves and cares for everyone’s pet that she takes care of. She’s so communicative and kind to both me and my dog Heidi! :)”

I have walked and cared for dogs of many different sizes and all ages both in my personal life and professionally. I have over 3 years if experience at doggy daycares. In my personal life I have cared for my dilute tortie Smokie for 7 of her 8 years. I have also cared for reptiles and amphibians at the Urban Ecology Center and am trained to handle snapping turtles.

I believe in the importance of safety, health, and enrichment. Your animals needs - both physical and emotional - are a priority to me. I put in the time and effort your animal deserves.
About: We are a family that absolutely loves dogs. Our home is a sprawling ranch in Fox Point with a park across the street. Our yard is not fenced, but we are happy to take your pup out on a leash and also spend time with them off leash in the yard. We have a 4 year old adorable little black mutt, Calamity Jane, who gets along with everyone (canine or human). We also have a new puppy named Sunny! She is a golden retriever/ german shepherd mix we are training to become our daughter’s mobility support service dog. We have 2 daughters, aged 9 & 10, who always want to pet every dog they see. I spend most of my days at home and only leave for a few hours at a time. My husband works remote and is almost always around also, so there is never a dull moment here! I also have some experience working at a veterinarian clinic in the past. Your dog will be well loved here and come home all tuckered out from the fun they had during their stay! I am a stay at home mom that is able to let your pet out regularly. Our home would be a great place for a dog with some separation issues, as we are almost always home. We love taking walks in the evenings as a family and would be happy to have an extra pup along! I am happy to crate your dog if needed.
About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.

“I’m so glad I found Jan on Rover! She is a great dog walker. When she came and met our puppy prior to her first walk I could tell she is a big dog lover. Her job is flexible so she is able to be flexible with coming over as well. Great at communicating about the walk/playtime. Our puppy had a stomach bug and she kindly cleaned up his accidents when she came over. I also overbooked her and unfortunately had to cancel a few walks. She was very nice about it. I will definitely be using her again! I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: I've grown up with pets ever since I was little. I've been trusted even from young ages to walk, feed, and clean up after dogs. I've never had a bad experience and I'm always willing to encounter any and every kind of dog out there with lots of love and care! I have my own pet at home, had him for 10 years. Even after so long, it's so easy and even fun sometimes to do the little things for your pets like feeding them, walking them, and just making sure you spend some quality time with them! There's never a moment I don't want to be around my pet, or any pet for that matter! I always think the key to good pet care is real love and attention. Watching for what your pets want and giving them it will make them happy. If it's attention, bring on the cuddles! If it's a walk, let's do it! And that goes for pets that aren't mine as well. I always care for them like they're mine, and will pay attention to what they want as well as what their owners know is best too!
“I have been using these 2 for a couple of weeks with both Wag and now Rover. They have been great to my girl. They are helping her get the energy out in a safe way and even working on her focus in public. Much appreciated ?”

About: Hello and welcome! We take care of/have taken care of all different kinds of pets. We have our own two dogs, as well as six cats. We have experience with multiple different breeds and types of animals, as well as being able to handle many at a time. (We have had up to 9 dogs in our care at one time!) We know how hard it is to leave your pet behind, which is why we will update you with pictures as much as you would like. We have a finished basement if your loved one would prefer to be separated, and also have many open rooms for them to choose from for slumber. The cats have a gated off cat room, only accessible to humans and kitties. The crew and I can't wait to meet you! (Or if you prefer the whole crew won't meet you :)). Dani is currently home full time. At this time Dani is home for almost the entire day, with occasional errands. You can request our schedule for any amount of time to confirm your loved one will be cared for properly and on time. We deep clean all items used after a pet stays, so that they are ready for the next pet to stay. We have extra blankets, beds, crates, bowls, and more. We keep our fishtanks neat and clean, as well as my home. My dogs are extremely friendly even with cats. My backyard is fenced in with access through a back door. When it's nice out we play outside with the dogs where they have access to a kiddie pool to play in the water. I have started to add more outdoor play equipment/toys.

I also worked at a doggy daycares throughout Florida and Wisconsin. I love all dogs like they are my children. I would love to own my own rescue center but as of now I want to gain more experience with taking care of different breeds and just express my love of animals to the world. I hope that you choose me to be a temporary parent for your dog and that he or she is in perfect hands and will feel at home. Thank you. Hopefully we speak soon. I work third shift for Target and dog sit during the day. I make sure they are taken out three-four times and feed twice a day. I care for them like they are children. Go on walks, feed, cuddle. Run like crazy and crash from exhaustion. I also love getting to know the dogs personality.
About: I have owned and watch dogs but also cats. I have a love for animals and I get very excited meeting new ones. It’s the best experience to me. I’m available anytime. I would be able to do last minute set ups. I’m sometimes away from home around 2-4 pm but that’s not often Everyone in the house loves animals, especially dogs. The most love is given like their our own. We get very excited and take them out for long walks. My dog has been around puppies before and he loves to be around other dogs.
About: Ive had dogs all my life, my family always had a couple dogs no matter what happens. I come from a big family who loves a lot of house and companionship. And dogs make the best companions. I will take extra good care of you loved one and I will make sure you are in great hands when I take care of them! I have school Monday through thursday but I have time in between classes to run home and walk them if need be. I work the weekends 3pm to 11pm Friday and satruday, then Sunday 7am to 3pm I will take great care to make sure they are comfy and have everything they need. I will play with them as much as they want and I will ensure that they're safe

“Yolanda and Rashad’s years of experience caring for all kinds of dogs showed in their confidence taking in our sweet, old pup, and managing him among many others. Their kind, calm demeanor also made him feel comfortable and welcome in their home. Best of all, he returned to us, healthy and well.”


“MJ was great, my usually shy skittish dog immediately felt comfortable and started playing with the other dogs staying there. MJ clearly understands animals”

“Monique was awesome! She’s an expert in introducing all the pups to each other and making sure play is safe. We received regular (sometimes hilarious) updates that assured us that Coltrane has happy and healthy. The space is amazing and Coltrane loved it! We also received a report of how Coltrane’s time went, which was great. I would definitely recommend Monique and book with her again.”

“This was our first time using Rover. We had last minute work done in our house where the cats had to be gone. Aidan and Dani were amazingly patient with our four cats who have quite unique personalities.”

“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”

“Katie and her family have watched our dog a few times. Our dog loves it at Katie's. She runs up to the door all excited to stay. Katie is very responsive and has been flexible when needed. She is a great communicator and makes it so I don't have to worry about our dog while we are away.”

“Sarah and her family took great care of Goose while we were gone for a quick overnight! Goose got lots of walks around the neighborhood and played well with their kids, both in the yard and outside. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future!”

“Evita was great with my pups. She was super welcoming and her home was perfect for my dogs. They really enjoyed her backyard and all the playtime. Thank you!”

“Kim was amazing with Millie! Millie stayed with her for three nights, and Kim kept in touch and sent us pictures every day. It looked like Millie had a wonderful time and was very happy and comfortable with her. We had such a great experience and would definitely have Millie stay with Kim again!”

“Sherry was so amazing in accommodating my senior pup within her home. Tedi was very comfortable and was able to enjoy all of her favorite things with Sherry from naps on the couch to car rides. I appreciated the photos and updates I received and could not have felt more comfortable being away from Tedi for an extended period of time. Definitely will be asking for a repeat stay should her schedule allow!”

“According to our dog sitter review specialist, our little Chihuahua, Cosita... she had a wonderful overnight visit with Auria and is looking forward to her return visit in a few days. She was very pleased with the care she received and enjoyed meeting and interfacing with the other dogs. We were also impressed with the great care that Cosita received and have a few more visits scheduled.”


“Clark had so much fun staying with Andrew and his family! They have a big fenced in backyard and I got plenty of pictures of Clark playing :) definitely would book again!”

“Elizabeth and her family took great care of our dog for 3 nights! We appreciated the photo updates and thoughtful communication. Would definitely recommend Elizabeth to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Mitch was very accommodating with my last minute booking request. After a quick meet and greet, I left my 4 year old pup in good hands for an overnight stay. Mitch has a nice big fenced in yard for the dogs to play, he was very responsive with his communication and provided photo updates. Would definitely recommend.”

“Laura did a great job with my pup again! I know that he is well cared for and safe when she is taking care of him. He always has a great time with her dog Diesel and goes on nice walks. I love how he always comes back to me good and tired! I highly recommend Laura and I will definitely be using her again!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier with Dawn and her husband! They were so welcoming at our Meet and Greet and made us feel very comfortable leaving Zeke overnight. She sent us updates and pictures of him having a blast in their back yard, so I could tell Zeke was having a great time. I highly recommend Dawn and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”


“Alisha was great with my two pugs last weekend. She was very understanding of my quirky older dog's needs. Her boxer is so friendly and a wonderful playmate or pillow for doggy guests!”

“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”


“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”
