In all honesty, I hesitate to leave an EXCELLENT review for Jacque because I want to keep her to myself, and I don’t want anyone else to take her. 🤣🤣 Yes, she’s THAT amazing with our 2 little Frenchies. We don’t have any family in the area to watch our little girls while we’re away, so finding Jacque was the best thing to ever happen to us. She’s the absolute BEST pet nanny you’ll ever meet. She never simply does the “basics” (eg: feed, water, walk) the girls—she loves on them constantly & spoils them just as we would. They get so excited every time they see Aunt Jacque come through the door. You won’t find a better pet nanny than her.

Emily took great care of our two (very large) dogs! She also sent pictures of our cat, brought in packages, and was a big help filling in last minute when another sitter canceled. Would definitely rebook!

About: I have had years of experience with animals, dogs and cats. There has always been a pet in my home as my family are huge animal lovers. As of current we have 3 dogs, ranging from a 14 pound Jack Russell to a 80 pound German Shepard....and in between we have a 50 pound Husky. I also had a cat growing up so I am super familiar with the care and characteristics of a cat. I am very compassionate when it comes to the needs of a pet. My own pets are considered a big part of our family. They always make the family photos! I am a recent graduate of ST. John Fisher University. I have an internship that will keep me busy during the week but am available any weekend. From Friday afternoon till late Sunday, your pet will have my full availability. I am extremely trustworthy and will offer care and kindness to your pets, giving you peace of mind to enjoy your weekend away!

Sharon was wonderful with watching and bringing our dog to our wedding. She clearly really cares about dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We felt very comfortable with leaving him in her capable hands. We will certainly have our dog stay with Sharon again when we are back on the cape! We can’t recommend her more! Thank you Sharon!!

Gail is a superstar! I needed to find a dog sitter at the last minute and had never used Rover before. Gail responded right away and made a plan to meet me and my pup right away to confirm it was a fit. Gail did a fantastic job watching Rocky! She sent me updates and I never had to think or worry about how things were going at home during our trip. I will absolutely use Gail again and cannot recommend her enough.

Jen was the best sitter I could have found for my 115lb. Golden. I knew the day I met her and watched how Charlie reacted with her that she would be the person I could trust to stay with him. It was our first time leaving Charlie with anyone other than family, also it was the longest amount of time we would be gone. She stayed with Charlie for 6 days and 5 nights. Our flights were delayed both going and coming home. Jen was so accommodating, she came earlier than I had booked her for and stayed later at the end. I was completely at ease knowing Charlie was going to be so well cared for, even loved. He's such a creature of habit and Jen followed our routine perfectly. It was obvious from the way he reacted to Jen that he knew she was a good person and a dog lover. My husband and I will feel so much better about going away and leaving our dog, knowing that we will be able to call on Jen again. We were so fortunate to have found her!! Thank you so much Jen!!

Helena is INCREDIBLE!! I felt so at ease while away. Nala has quite the separation anxiety which makes it hard to leave because she can be a little high maintenance. Not once did I worry about her being left alone for long periods of time. Helena sent me a bunch of updates and pictures. She left the house super clean. I highly recommend her! Nala and I love her so much <3

About: Hi, I have had several different dogs in my life. Five years ago we got our Cavapoo named Snoopy. In my experience of caring for other dogs, I have housed special needs pups and all types of breeds. I love learning about the different breeds of dogs! I really have developed a love for all dogs I have met through the years. I would love to care for your dog, while it’s for a week, overnight or just for the day. My dog Snoopy gets along well with all dogs and we would love some company for him as well, as he is just the only dog in the house. We have a home with lots of space and will definitely be able to find a space where your dog is most comfortable. Also, all of my children are older now and are great with dogs and truly enjoy their company. Looking forward to meeting and caring for your dog in the near future!! - the Caleshu family Pet care fits nicely in our daily routine as we have a dog ourselves, and have a nice big yard that we would love to share with other dogs!! For caring for your dog, I will ensure they will have a great time, ensuring they have nutritional snacks and play time with my dog.

Lily was an excellent dog sitter to our 2.5 year old lab and 5 month old retriever. She was able to stay with our pups on short notice and jump right into their routines. She was so easy to communicate with - we had a phone call to review their routines and go over any questions and then Lily provided us with daily updates on how the dogs were doing. She kept them active by taking them on walks, letting them play together, but was vigilant to not let them play too intensely and separated our puppy when she was getting too playful. She also was so caring and helpful to our puppy who is still potty training and was patient with her when she had accidents. Lily took great care of our home while we were away and we couldn’t recommend her enough. We will absolutely be booking with her again. She helped us feel at ease while away on vacation and our dogs have continued their routines after her care which we are so grateful for. Thank you Lily!
