Claude LOVED LOVED LOVED his stay with Ryan and Luna!! Could not recommend them more highly - they are AMAZING! And we will most definitely be leaving Claude with them again! Ryan was incredibly friendly, loving and caring towards Claude and an absolute pleasure to correspond with, right from our very first meet and greet. We got LOADS of pics and we could tell Claude was having an absolute blast with them! Luna was ofcourse a total darling too, even though Claude decided to rest his paw on her and took up most of the bed / sofa space. We even had to extend the stay at the last minute given our travel situation and they were super accommodating. THANK YOU AGAIN - ya'll are the best!

Victoria was amazing with my 14 week old lab puppy (who is teething pretty hard). She provided just the right amount of updates that weren’t distracting us from plans, but still gave us many updates on how he was doing! She’s very sweet and goes about and beyond.

This was my anxious dog’s first time at a sitter. I would give Phi a 10 star if I could. He updated me every once in a while with pictures and even sent me videos on how to make my dog’s future experiences better. I would give him a 10 star if I could.

Tien-Tien is great with my small dog Beau! I can tell that she loves animals and always treats Beau like he’s her own. I’ve gone on several trips out of town and left my dog in her care and it’s been fabulous every time!

Christie and Daniel took really good care of our dog Polo! It is his first time boarding and they did really well accommodating him, taking care of his need and provide plenty of hike/walks. I can see Polo is relaxed and happy around the family and baobao the pup (he is definitely sad coming home, Polo loves wrestling with Bao ?) Christie provided frequent photo/video updates and was quick responding to questions. I will definitely recommend the stay with the family; Polo cannot wait to visit again!

Donna puts incredible love and kindness into her dog-care and I'm so thankful to have found her. Her and her other dogs are such welcoming hosts, and while I was away got to smile and laugh several times a day when Donna sent photos and videos and updates to make sure I always felt in the loop. I wholeheartedly recommend Donna and know I'll be seaking her out again in the future!

Ilya was responsive, gave detailed daily updates, and sent pictures throughout the stay. He took Lia on multiple walks a day, and I think she really enjoyed her time there. I also appreciated that Ilya was super accommodating with a last minute change in my pick up time.

Sarah is wonderful! She was lovely, responsible, and fabulous with our pup who stayed with her for a whole week, and she was perfect in her communication with me. Our dog can sometimes be a little difficult on leash, and she managed him beautifully. She really helped me feel comfortable while away, in not needing to worry at all about my dog. She was also incredibly flexible as it was better for me to drop him off a day earlier than initially planned. I fully and completely recommend Sarah (though I don't really want to because I know she'll become hard to book!).

Ethan was prompt for both drop off and pickup, and I loved receiving frequent videos and pictures showing how happy my dog was. My dog was upbeat and healthy when I picked him up. It was nice to leave him with someone I could trust.

Laura was great with Stella! We felt very confident in her. She obviously loves animals. Stella took to her immediately. Laura was very accommodating when we wanted to pick up Stella at a different time than originally planned. We would definitely use Laura again!

Harry had the best time with Michelle! She sent tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing (he made himself right at home). He got plenty of walks and was fed and tired when we picked him up.

Katerine is very responsive and attentive. We were able to meet at a local Petco to familiarize ourselves and our dogs. She sent updates and pictures of my dog and had no issue when I picked up my dog a day earlier than our contract (which was revised and updated with Rover). Overall a great experience and would use Katerine again!
