“Very nice couple. Great atmosphere for our dog to feel safe and actually have fun. I appreciate it so much. The pics and updates were a blessing. I’m sure I’ll contact them the next time I need to board my dog. Thank you!”
“Loni was incredible! She was so friendly, quick to respond, so good to my dog, sent me updates and pictures. Her dogs are very friendly and well trained as well. I could not be more happy with the expedience. Thank you, Loni and family!!”
“Hillary is the very best. I hired her to take my puppy to the dog park three days a week for two weeks while my husband and I were out-of-town. My mom was staying with my daughter and my dogs but was unwilling to go to the dog park. Oreo had a great time and Hillary sent pictures after every visit. She is so good with the dogs she cares for and makes sure that the doggy parents are kept up-to-date and informed about their fur babies. Wouldn't hesitate to use her again for dog park visits or for boarding should we need her services. I knew my pup was in very capable hands. Thanks Hillary!!”
“Rita and Brian provided exceptional care to Roscoe. He received multiple walks per day, lots of play and cuddle time and we felt confident he was loved on like we would! Roscoe is an older dog who needs a little more attention, which Rita and Brian provided. I especially looked forward to the recap of his day and the many pictures we received each evening! We booked his next stay already! We cannot say enough and highly recommend Rita and Brian!”
“I'm so glad we found Sally! She took great care of our pit bull Henry. She made accommodations for him, sent us daily updates, sent pictures every day, and even some videos. I could tell Henry was enjoying himself, I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home! She truly cares for him!”
“This was our first time taking a vacation without our two dogs. Everything went better than I could have expected. They took excellent care of them, sent pictures daily and walked them. My guys loved it there! Great fenced in yard and a very nice home. We'll definitely be back. Thank you both very much.”
“Angela was very communicative during my dogs entire stay. She sent several pictures and made sure I was comfortable. She also took my dog to the dog park and made sure she got her exercise. As a first time Rover user, I was extremely satisfied with my experience with Angela!”
“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!”
“Yefan took such good care of my senior dog! Prior to drop off, she asked great questions about my pup, his needs, and how she could best take care of him during the week I was away. Yefan sent daily pictures and detailed updates. My dog was very happy and content when I picked him up! I won’t hesitate to Yefan again for boarding - highly recommend!”
“My little timid Yorkshire was well taken care of. Laura went above and beyond by agreeing to care for Lacie over the Thanksgiving holiday. I will definitely use her services in the future and will recommend her to all my friends.”
“We had a last minute need for a dog sitter and Kelsey was incredibly accommodating and willing to help watch out pup. She was considerate, sent updates and pictures, and was sure to check in on any needs our dog may need. Highly highly recommended!”
“Kate and her family were very kind and took great care of Willow! Took on a last minute booking, and communicated very well! Sent me pictures and updates through out the stay! Even a nice little thank you card at the end:) Would highly recommend!!”
“Arlette was great with our pup! She treated Millie just like family. We got pictures of our sweet girl on a daily basis and she loved her multiple walks a day. I’m not sure Millie wanted to come home after Arlette watched her! 🙂🦮”
“Very easygoing and friendly! They love dogs as much as we do! Our dog was so happy while staying there! We had peace of mind while on vacation knowing our dog was being taken care of !”
“I can’t rave enough about Mareth! Our girl Dani is a mill rescue and very suspicious of new people. She had never stayed anywhere but our house. After having taken training classes with Mareth I knew when Dani needed to board she would be in good hands. Mareth and her pups are gracious hosts, your dog(s) will come home happy, healthy, and tuckered! The peace of mind knowing your pups are cared for and safe is priceless.”
“From the time we dropped off our pup, we shown that she would be in great care. Gary and Heather provided consistent updates and photos as promised. We were told that our pup would be “cared for like one of our own” and our experience proved that. They took our pup to the dog park and the dog beach. As a high energy pup, we could tell she was thoroughly engaged judging by how tired she was when she returned home. We would highly recommend Gary and Heather to give you a peace of mind and your pup a loving home away from home.”
“We are so glad we found Jessika. Dexter absolutely fell in love with her. She was fun to talk to and kept us up to date on how things were going. We will definitely be getting in touch with her the next time we need a place for Dexter.”
