“Allison is a wonderful caretaker and the sweetest human to boot! My little spoiled poodle felt so at home and happy at his extended stay with her that I don't think he even missed his mum and we couldn't be more grateful for her expert and caring help!”


“This was a last minute trip and we needed someone to watch our baby. Shanagay was willing and open and ziva took to her right away. She was sweet and sent pictures and my dog loved her! We will absolutely use her again .”



“This was my first time leaving our puppy with someone besides family. I can easily say she was very happy and worn out from all the fun she had when we got home. I loved getting pics throughout her visit and Steve was great to deal with ! We are looking forward to her next visit!”

“My Sami was one happy tired dog when she came back home. Liz did great and communicated to me at all times which made me feel at ease and comfortable. Will recommend and use her services again.”

“Morgan was super helpful when I needed a sitter on my road trip! She was so good with Molly and helped out extra since Molly wasn’t feeling the best on my trip and eating irregularly”


“We had the pleasure of having Kristin watch our two dogs for the first time, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience!! We were a bit nervous leaving them for the first time, but she made it so easy and reassuring. From the thoughtful updates and pictures, to the way she made our dogs feel comfortable and cared for, we could tell she genuinely loves animals. It was such a relief to know they were in good hands! We came back to happy pups! We’ll definitely be booking again in the future. We highly recommend!!”


“Alyssa was so wonderful! Our pup had cut her foot a few days before she was set to stay with Alyssa and Rocky. Alyssa took the best care of her - making sure she got her antibiotic and giving her a new bandage when she pulled hers off. Sunny absolutely loved her time with Alyssa and Rocky and we felt so relieved leaving her with such a thoughtful, caring, and competent caregiver so we could enjoy our visit with our daughter. Alyssa was also incredibly accommodating when our flight got delayed (twice) and Sunny had to stay an extra night. Thank you, Alyssa and Rocky!!!”


“I would book with Olivia again , she updates me with pictures of cash to show me that she was in good hands. She communicates with me fast and responsive and the booking was on short notice, so I really appreciate her and most importantly cash love it there and she had alot of fun”


“Cannot thank them enough. It was my first time using Rover and on a short notice request- no problem. I got pictures of Alfie playing and cuddling throughout his stay which set me at ease. He also came back smelling nicer and was freshly brushed, he was so happy! I 100% recommend Heather and Norman”


“Amanda and her family took care of Butters very well. the family is welcoming and caring. Butters had a wonderful time. definitely recommend. Thank you so much for taking care of Butters.”


“Blue was very happy at MJ's. MJ got back to us when no one else could during the beginning of a holiday weekend. She and her family were very accommodating and my pup felt at home there. Super happy with a great first visit ... I would not hesitate at all to bring him back. Plus her pups are friendly and Blue had a great time with them, including playing with the fam in the yard. He's out cold right now, the sign of a fun and active day.”


“I recently had Gail take care of my dog, Dior, for a week while I was on vacation. The bond Gail and her dog Ginger formed with Dior was heartwarming. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog, providing plenty of love and attention. Dior came home happy and well-exercised, which is a testament to the great care they received. Safety was a top priority for me, and I felt completely at ease knowing Gail was watching over my pet. [He/She/They] followed all instructions regarding feeding and I appreciated the regular updates and photos that kept me in the loop. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience with Gail. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”



“Nancy and her husband were GREAT! Jerome was spoiled with lots of walks and chicken soup. They sent photo updates multiple times a day and were very easy to communicate with. They were also very flexible with pick up dates and times! Would highly recommend and will definitely be contacting again! :)”



“We highly recommend Ricky for your pet-sitting needs! He took great care of our older Yorkie. He provided daily updates and feedback, along with photos. The feeding instructions and medication were followed without any issues, and our little one returned happy and healthy. Excellent stay :-)”


“Russ and Janet are great. Sophie was in 7th Heaven with them. Walked and played with and cuddled. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Having just moved to the area, we’re thrilled to now have a go-to sitter for our pooch.”


“My dog loves to play and I can tell he had a lot of fun running & playing during his stay cause he came home exhausted & conked right out when he got home, and also slept in the next morning. I had to wake him up at 8 a.m. Lol.”
