“Kristin is so nice my dog loved being there and she’s on top of her messages always gets back to you with a quick turnaround time. I felt very comfortable having my dog with her two different times.”


“Krista was great with my fur babies ? She communicated daily with updates and sent pictures of all the fun they were having. It's hard going somewhere without being able to bring your pets with but it makes it a lot easier when you find someone who loves animals and cares for them as their own. I have already rebooked for our next trip, my dogs had a great time and came home happy and healthy. Thank you!”

“Alexus was great! She communicated with us. She sent us pictures and every time I checked in she responded, and she took very good care of our children!! She’s awesome I highly recommend her!”

“Jeralin and her daughter are the best! Our dogs are always well taken care of. I can tell they have a great time and trust them. They are always excited to return!”

“Alia was awesome with the dogs and provided me with several updates and photos while I was away! You can tell she is an animal lover and took great care of my fur babies! I definitely plan on using her in the future!!!”

“If I could leave 10 stars I would! Always felt my pup was so well taken care and so loved was everything to our family. Having her with Ashley and Rowan in their home where we knew she was getting love and attention made being away so easy and stress free. She loved her staycation with them. We will definitely be using them again real soon. Thank you for everything.”

“She was great with my pup! He's older and special needs and she took the time to learn how to care for him. Not a lot of people will, so it meant a lot to me. Definitely, definitely recommend her to watch your fur babies!”

“My St.Bernard, Mila, spent a night/day with Angel and Taylor last week. This was her first time being boarded in over a year and my first time trying Rover.com. Everything went great! Mila was running with them in the field while I was leaving. They sent pictures of her on their couch! There was another large dog there as well, no issues. I will definitely use them again, and would recommend them to anyone! This is so much nicer than a kennel!! My girl was happy, I could tell!! Thanks ladies!!!”

“Kacey was absolutely wonderful! She sent me pictures or videos of my beloved dog having a blast. He was well exercised and loved. He was very excited to see me return and wasn’t anxious to leave right away. I could tell he felt completely at home. Kacey responded quickly and went above and beyond to take care of my pup. I really could t be more pleased and will definitely be a returning customer!”

“I’m so thankful for Dianette and her daughter and the amazing care they gave my dog Hunter. They were patient, loving, and very attentive. I really appreciated the updates with pictures and messages—it gave me so much peace of mind. Hunter was happy, safe, and well taken care of the whole time. I’ll definitely trust them again in the future and highly recommend their services!”

“They took great care of our 4-year old poodle. They sent many videos and updates throughout the stay that gave us peace of mind and let us know that he was in good hands. We would definitely use them again!”

“This was the first time leaving my dog and using Lili, it won’t be the last. Dobby was having such a great time I was worried he wouldn’t want to go home. I would definitely recommend Lili for any dog. You won’t find better!!”
