“Jenn M. was a great option to board our dog while we were away. She has her own pup and a fully fenced yard. She is extremely prompt with her responses and incredibly flexible when it comes to scheduling. We have already booked her a second time!”
2. Surendra S.
“I had a wonderful experience with Surendra's family for sitting Ruby! They went above and beyond to keep me informed during my time away by sharing regular videos and photos of my furry friend. It was reassuring to see how well my pet was being taken care of. Their attention to detail and communication skills really stood out. I highly recommend Surendra to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care services.”
3. Oana & Oliver B.
“Oana and Oliver are the best! I always feel very comfortable leaving our dog in their care. Our dog has an amazing time too, walks, play time in their yard, and lots of love.

“As always, Cassie was amazing. Juni loves going there and gets very animated when we pull into the driveway. Very accommodating and great with Juni. Always lets her leave with treats and toys.”
10. Helena A.
“I highly recommend Unleashed Pet Sitters! My dog (Twinkle) received the care and attention they needed, It is a great comfort to know that my little English Cream Retriever is well taken care of while I'm at work. Helena is awesome. It was so sweet and she loves to play with them. I wouldn't trust my baby with anyone else.”
11. Sandra G.
“Sandra did a wonderful job taking care of my senior dog. She was open to a 'meet and greet' prior to taking care of Dallas which I very much appreciated. I also like the fact that she only takes care of 1 dog at a time. I would highly recommend Sandra!”
12. Gina & Joshua M.
“I felt so safe leaving my fur baby with Gina and Joshua! They clearly care very much about animals and were so excited to take care of my pup, Benji. He doesn’t do well with other dogs and they were very understanding. He looked so at home in their beautiful house and big backyard. They sent updates every day, did great with his food and meds schedule, and were all around great sitters. I’d rebook with Gina and Joshua in a heartbeat!”
13. Elizabeth and Neil C.
“Elizabeth and Neil took great care of our dog Ollie. They sent lots of updates, photos, and videos and we could see that Ollie was having a great time with their two pups! We would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

15. Danielle P.
“Danielle watched my senior lab for a 10 day stay and she was simply awesome! She sent lots of updates and pictures and really helped to put my mind at ease, and Daisy was so happy and loved in my absence. Will 100% be using Danielle again!!”
16. Kimm & Kenn S.
“Kimm was awesome! It was our first time using rover for boarding and she made it easy on us! Always answered my questions quickly and sent me updates/pictures throughout the weekend. She also was willing to take him earlier than scheduled. Definitely will use them again!”
17. Lissette A.
“Lissette is a great sitter. This was Oscar's second fun stay with her. She accommodated us on short notice, and was flexible which is helpful when you are rushing to get out of town. Oscar enjoyed playing with Lucy and he will definitely be back! ”
18. Jackson & Katie M.
“Katie and Jackson were great, and my pup Sunny had a fun time with their friendly dog. Hikes in the woods were a highlight.
