“Thank you Amanda and Brandon for treating Marshall like one of your own! I appreciated the daily updates, and Marshall had such a great time he didn’t want to leave. Will definitely book again”



“My boyfriend and I recently left our little boy, Scout, with Hillary for the day from around 8:15 am to 7:30 pm. She was awake and ready for us when we arrived and had put her two adorable dogs, Chewy and LuLu, in a separate room so that Scout could come into this new environment comfortably. Hillary's home was very clean with no clutter. I checked in a couple of times during the day to see how he was doing and Hillary responded right away, even with pictures! She had taken the dogs on a long walk in the morning as well as lots of play time at the dog park. Hillary is incredibly friendly, very responsive and an obvious dog lover. We will definitely be using her business again in the future and would very much recommend her to watch over your furry family member.”


“Emily once again was very loving and welcoming to Bubba. We have no worries when Bubba being watched by Emily. He always comes home exhausted and happy! Will rebook once again if needed!”


“Vito really enjoyed his stay again! He knew we were at Sally's as soon as we pulled up. He couldn't wait to go play! That gives me great peace of mind as I know he's in good hands!”


“Deanna was great with Bailey. She sent us daily pictures and updates which was very much appreciated. Bailey was really happy with her care.”



“Ashliegh is wonderful and Sloopy didn't want to come home with us! We received photos and updates during our trip and could tell that Sloopy was having a ball. She will be back!”


“Oh my!! Will and Bibiana, are the absolute best! We called them literally at the last minute made a booking they accepted the booking for our Charlie. This couple is awesome!!!! Very nice, very friendly, immediate welcome our Charlie with his disability into their home. They showed no hesitation to just make him feel welcome. Very professional , house is a place that you would want your very family taken care of. Our dog Charlie is a special needs dog. They didn’t even hesitate to say that they would take care of him as we had a funeral for my husband‘s uncle today in Cincinnati. Thank you, thank you, thank you Will and your lovely wife. We appreciate you so very much and we will be booking with you again! If you’re looking for a great place for your extended furry family consider Will and his lovely wife Bibiana. I HIGHLY recommend them! I love that they sent us videos of Charlie sitting in the window, watching the cars go by along with another dog and they was just having a good greatest time just looking out the window although our Charlie was barking at everything he saw, but the other dog tend to look at him and say, what are we looking at bud.🤣🤣”


“My goldendoodles Sam and Gertie had a great time staying with Tina while we were on our vacation! We knew they were being well taken care of. Tina sent daily pictures and updates. She even sent us home with some pill pockets for Sam’s medicine! Tina was flexible with drop off and pick up times. Her house was lovely and clean with plenty of dog beds and toys. We will definitely use Tina in the future.”



“Karen did such a great job making my little Thunder feel at home! While I was away for 2 weeks on vacation to New Zealand, I was delighted to receive pictures via text to see that my little buddy was happy and comfortable! Her two sweet doggies were excellent canine companions to my chihuahua, and I couldn't be happier with the whole thing! I would recommend her to anyone, any time!”

“Lucky loves staying with Samantha and her family :-) he’s always very happy when we pick him up and always has a fun time there!! It’s his favorite place to stay!! 😍!”

“Michelle and Justin were great! They kept me up to date with pictures of Bennie throughout his stay! Bennie usually doesn’t eat well when in an unfamiliar place but he must have been so comfortable he had no issues this time!”


“Abigail was absolutely fantastic! Throughout my time away, they provided wonderful and engaging updates about my doggo, which I truly appreciated. Seeing how happy and comfortable my pup was in their care was such a relief. Abigail went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt secure and familiar with them, demonstrating exceptional dedication. If it were possible, I'd give them far more than five stars!”


“WOW!! I dont even know where to begin. As a first time user of Rover, I was unsure how it would go, and Joe exceeded every expectation I had. He was kind, responsive, and made all of us feel so comfortable throughout the process. Manny looked right at home in all of the pictures we sent and I’m pretty sure he would have stayed with Joe indefinitely if we let him 😂 Thank you Joe for an amazing experience and peace of mind while we were on our trip!!!”


“Our dog Gunner had such a great stay with Bill and his family. The care and attention they gave him was above and beyond. Communication was outstanding. We will definitely be using their services again to take care of our special boy.”


“Mary did such an amazing job taking care of our fur baby!! She sent us frequent updates and pictures which made being away from home on a 10-day trip much easier. Our girl had so much fun at Mary’s house!”


“Samantha was absolutely incredible with our pup! We went away for the week and didn’t worry a single time, knowing he was receiving impeccable care with her. She sent frequent updates throughout each day, and treated our doggie as one of her own. He got to run around, play, and had the best time at her house with her pups. I truly cannot recommend her enough!!!”


“Alyssa was great! She helped take care of our puppy Nova while we were on a weekend vacation. It allowed us to relax and not have to worry about our baby. Also, her 2 fur babies got along well with Nova and we even were able to do a pre meet before the vacation. Plus they have a nice yard in the back. Alyssa sent updates and photos throughout our trip. She’s very friendly and easy to talk to. Would recommend!”


“Kirsten was great with our dogs. Well taken care of. Definitely will use her again”


“Took great care of my baby for me. Great communication, sent videos and pictures and it looks like Bentlee got plenty of cuddles and play time. I would definitely recommend and I will gladly rebook! Thanks guys!”


“Jill took excellent care of our dog! The pictures and updates were thoughtful and reassuring that our fur baby was in good hands and having a blast playing with her family and their dog! I absolutely recommend Jill to anyone in the area looking for a superior alternative to a boarding kennel. Your dog will be a part of their family during his/her stay.”
