“Wow! Devin is the absolute man. From being extremely easy to coordinate with, to catering to our many needs, Devin was an absolute pleasure to work with! Our little one is very shy and reserved and Devin was so patient and great with Buddy, by the end of their stay he was running around, engaging with the other animals, and had the biggest smile on his face when we pick him up. We 100% recommend Devin who truly took our baby in and was a joy! Thanks Devin!”


“After a daycare, we had our pup with Gillian and her pups for a boarding. He absolutely loved being there. She really makes the experience feel like home, and so do her precious fur-babies. We were worry-free knowing ours was well-taken care of, and his needs for cuddles were met (more than expected)! We would definitely bring him to Gillian again. Thanks for an amazing stay!”


“Jenn was amazing! She responded quickly when I reached out to her. She kept us informed throughout our trip as to how our 2 dogs were doing. We felt our dogs were very well taken care of during our trip! We will definitely use her again.”


“Onyx spent a week with Mike. He sent us pictures and communicated regularly. Mike is very easygoing and made Onyx feel right at home. It is comforting to know that you can go away and know that your dog is happy and well cared for. Thank you Mike!”


“We are so glad we found Brigid. Our dog, Roscoe, was comfortable with her right away when we had our meet-and-greet. Brigid asked good questions and took notes. She and her house are well-suited for a little dog visitor. She has a nice, fenced-in yard. Her couch is a cozy spot for napping, snuggling and looking out the window. Brigid stayed in touch with us leading up to our trip and while we were away. It was so fun for us to hear and see pictures of how Brigid and Roscoe were spending their time. I felt that they had developed a special bond and I can't wait to book Brigid again. I think Roscoe feels the same way.”



“Kyle was great with our pup! I am sure that Buddy enjoyed his stay and having such a a nice yard to play in. Kyle was quick to follow up on any questions and kept us updated during our trip.”


“Anna took great care of Pizza! We’re so glad he was in good hands! She was always quick to respond, gave us lots of great pupdates and helped accommodate us with an additional day (because I accidentally booked the wrong day! Ah!). Would highly recommend to others looking for short or longer term pet sitting. Thanks, Anna!”


“My zeke was happy and comfy and Chrissy’s home. She sent plenty of photos of them lounging around the house. Definitely will have her watch Zeke in the near future.”


“Cheryle is a great dog-sitter. Her house is well set-up for a little dog, with low couches, ramps and lots of cozy spots. Her dachsund was a great companion for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe came home calm and happy after 5 days at Cherlye's. He was on a variety of meds for a sore back and she managed all those well and took great care of him.”


“Vera kindly agreed to host our Piper with less than a week’s notice. She was super communicative, sending a reminder packing list prior to the visit, as well as detailed updates and lots of photos. Piper had a terrific time with Vera and returned home a happy pup. Thank you!”


“Tiffany was wonderful with our dog Wyatt. We could see how much he loved being at her home and she took excellent care of him. She was frequently communicating with us as how he was doing which we greatly appreciated. I think Wyatt really enjoyed the big fenced in back at her house. We will definitely be using her again. We highly recommend Tiffany!”


“Stephanie went above and beyond to watch our Newfoundland puppy for us - this was our first time leaving her and Stephanie did a great job communicating and providing us with updates and lots of pictures of Lola each day. Her double fenced in yard and expertise in dog training were added bonuses! And because Lola loves attention and kids, knowing that her kids were there to play with her too, made us really happy! We will definitely book with Stephanie again!”


“First time using rover and a dog sitter. Our two dogs did just fine and loved Jack and Oreo. Jack was so great to work with, sent us photos and updates during stay. We will definitely be back!”


“This is our first time boarding of our 5 month old GSD puppy, Bryhn and his place is an excellent option, glad we found him. He took care of our GSD very well and updated us about our pup through out the day with texts, picture and videos. We felt safe and relieved, and will recommend Bryhn for daycare/boarding. Thank you Bryhn for taking care of our Puppy.”


“Brad and Mery are very kind hearted, trustworthy animal lovers. We were given updates throughout our dog’s stay with them. This was our first time boarding our dog and they made us feel comfortable throughout the whole process. Highly recommend, we will be booking again!”


“Jodi took fantastic care of Bella (Lab) during over vacation. Great communication before and during the stay - many pictures. Having a fenced in backyard is great but Bella really enjoyed the daily walks on nearby paths through the woods. Jodi went above and beyond, obtaining more of her preferred dog food for the last day - as we miscalculated.”



“Helen is absolutely wonderful! It was our first time leaving our dog with her and she had a great time! Helen was great at communicating and sent pictures daily of our dog playing. She was very accommodating when we had to pick her up late at night since our flight got delayed. Will definitely book with her again!”


“I booked with Natt for a last minute thanksgiving trip and I’m glad I was able to have her watch my dog Coco for me while I was gone. The communication from start to end was great all the daily updates on my dog and the picture mail was amazing my dog was well taken care of I appreciate and thank you for everything. I will be booking again in the future.”


“I can’t say enough about Jaya & her family taking care of my dog Barley like he was one of theirs. She was quick w/ responding, and her communication was thorough. Barley loved his “sleep over” playing w/ Jaya’s cute pup Biscuit in her big back yard. She made me feel like Barley was safe & would be cared for just like her own. We’ll surely be hoping she is available again for our next pet sitting need. Thank you Jaya !”
