We would highly recommend trusting Kerry with your fur baby - she was so responsive, timely, and very caring for our puppy Howdy. Before we booked, Kerry wanted to meet us and Howdy to ensure we all felt comfortable and she went above and beyond. Thank you, Kerry!

Fnu took great care of my crazy GSP pup! If you know the breed, you know they're highly energetic and I felt at ease with Fnu since she has GSPs herself. She was so accommodating and communicative with daily updates and pictures. My dog came back happy and tired! She definitely had a blast.

Mery and Brian were wonderful hosts to our dogs. They kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the stay. I don’t think I’ve taken my dogs to the park as frequently as they did! They were both healthy and happy, and I would highly recommend Mery to anyone. Looking forward to seeing them again for next time

Geoffrey was our first Rover experience and he was excellent! Our pup, Louella had the best time playing fetch and cuddling up with Geoffreys dog Lizzy. We would definitely send Louella back to this doggy air BNB If we travel again :)

If you’re needing a good dog sitter, Brian and his wife are the best! I had a last minute trip I had to make and he was super friendly and responsive. My pup had a wonderful time and we would def use Brian again but sadly moved out of state. So sad to have found a great dog sitter before leaving.

Lauren is a great sitter. She will love your dog as she loves her own pets and is welcoming to both you and your dog. She is attentive and will ease any concern you have about leaving your pet. My dog clearly felt at home with her.

Jennifer is AWESOME! I recently moved and have been driving 40 min each way to keep Ginger with her previous boarder because she loves Ginger and Hinger loves her. I can go away and know my baby is being taken care of. I had a last min trip and Jennifer was available and responsive. From the booking to meeting her to the communication and picking her up Jennifer was fantastic. Ginger came home happy, not skittish, hyped up or giving AS MUCH of a guilt trip which means she felt loved and cared for. I am DEFINITELY using Jennifer any time she’s available!

Christine was wonderful. Teddy felt right at home as soon as we got there and quickly loved her which put me at ease. She sent me photos and gave me updates on how Teddy was doing. Her home has a fenced back yard and other pups for Teddy to play with. I could tell he had a great time and was exhausted when we got home. Sign of a good visit! Will definitely book again! Thanks so much, Christine!

We boarded with Aaron and he did a fantastic job with our dog. He was very communicative and sent many pictures. Aaron really stepped up when my flight got cancelled and he watched our dog an extra night. Cannot thank him enough. 10/10.

This couple were amazing with my dog. Chuy lost his brother last month and I was uncertain about leaving him with strangers (for the first time in his life). Eduardo and Suzzette (SP?) were kind, patient, and very loving to my boy. I will be using their services again!

Maggie was a pleasure to work with. Upon meeting her I immediately felt comfortable in leaving Brownie with her. I definitely recommend her and would use her again when I’m in the area.
