“Scott watched over my two dogs for the weekend and they came back tired and happy! After the initial meet and greet I was confident that Scott would take good care of my dogs. I definitely recommend his services and I will absolutely be a repeat costumer.”

“My booking was very last minute and she was wonderful to work with! My cat had to take a few different medications and was able to give them to her while we were gone. Nala had a great time with them and we will book with them next time we need to.”
5. Megan B.
“I’m extremely pleased with the care provided by Megan when she took care of my 2 dogs for 6 days/5 nights while I was out of state on vacation. I had never left them that long with anyone before, and one of mine (Callie) is very attached to me and has some separation anxiety. But my fears were put to rest by Megan’s kind and reassuring manner when we first met and even more so when she sent me updates and several pictures every day to let me know how my pups were doing. She let me know my 2 pups were getting along well with her 2 little dogs, and the pictures reinforced they were making themselves at home. I really appreciated that she has a large fenced in yard for the dogs since mine are used to that. I will definitely use Megan again and am so relieved to know I can leave my dogs with her and they will be well cared for. She is awesome! I highly recommend her.”
6. Jessica S.
“Our pup, Kevin, had a great weekend with Jessica. We had plenty of updates, and Kevin had tons of outside time doing his favorite thing — playing fetch. Jessica and her husband were so accommodating with our last minute plans and flexible with pick up and drop off times. We will definitely have Kevin stay here again. I highly recommend for all dog parents, but especially if you have a mid-large size pup who loves the outdoors and has lots of energy.”
7. Shelly E.
“We had a great experience with Shelly. Lots of pictures throughout the stay, and our dog seems to have had a great time. We greatly appreciated her flexibility and accommodations to our dog. We would certainly go with Shelly again!”
8. Jennifer M.
“This was Pippa’s second stay and she enjoyed it just as much as the first. Jennifer is always so wonderful with her! Pippa comes home happy as can be. I hate taking trips without her but I know she's in good hands and I have peace of mind.”
9. Ben J.
“Ben does such a great job caring for Leo! Leo is always excited to go back. Ben has a set schedule, and the dogs follow it like clockwork. Leo’s anxiety is very well-managed now, too!”
10. Casandra L.
“Cassandra is amazing! She sent videos and pics of Chief showing how much fun he was having. He played with other dogs, played fetch, played in water, and was tired. She’s the best!!”
11. Ashley G.
“I could tell my dog was so happy during her stay and she returned to us so tired from playing all day. Ashley is great at communicating, treated my dog as her own, and her dogs are so friendly!”
12. Jessica V.
“Jessica was amazing and took great care if our Sumo while we were on vacation. She was a great communicator and sent us updates everyday. It really made our vacation better because we knew Sumo was being well taken care of back home. I will for sure use her service again in the future!”
13. Patricia ..
“I would highly recommend Patty. She is very responsive, and would send lots of pictures and videos while our dog was with her. Prior to booking she let us do a meet and greet, which was great so we could meet her and her dog. We knew out dog was in good hands.”
14. Ginny S.
“Ginny welcomed my feisty little rescue fella with open arms. He found doggie friends and cuddled up with the family. She sent me pictures often of these cozy activities. My Wilbur came home missing his friends you can be sure. I will be looking to Ginny as a go to pup nanny and would highly recommend her to anyone who asks.”
15. Lisa S.
“Lisa was a wonderful host to our two senior dogs. This was our first time using Rover and the dogs had a rough start adjusting (had multiple accidents in the home). Lisa was patient and was solution focused. She tried different methods to decrease their anxiety and provided us frequent updates on how they are doing. They definitely adapted with her help! One of our dogs is diabetic and Lisa helped us administer his medication injection as well.”
16. Evan H.
“We were really happy with the care Evan took with Red and keeping us updated throughout the week. He knows what hes doing and you can see the care he has. Definitely boarding with him next time!”
17. Samantha W.
“Sam and her husband were great to work with. Flexible drop off and pick up and a nice sized backyard. Will definitely rebook with them in the future.”
18. Liam M.
“Liam took excellent care of our energetic mini-labradoodle! They are a dog friendly home and truly welcomed her right in! She got a lot of snuggles, attention, and walks. I was SO grateful having Liam watching her over a weekend while I was out of town. He kept me updated on her activities and sent darling pictures of her, I had such peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for. I highly recommend Liam and will certainly be booking him again! Thank you, Liam! 🐶”
19. Lucia R.
“Lucia was so kind to Winnie and send us many photos of her dogs being so kind to my dog. I can tell Winnie had a blast!!! On top of taking great care of our dog, Lucia was extremely responsive and flexible with her schedule. She was able to watch our dog on last minute notice and she helped us out when our flight was missed! A great sitter, our family highly recommends!!”
20. Ashly B.
“Great communication; Coco was well cared for and enjoyed her stay. Ashly's dog, Tony, is very patient and well-mannered - great for my skittish pup.”
