As always Briana and her family provided exceptional care for our Kahlo. We had a medical procedure that was scheduled on short-notice and Briana made us feel at ease knowing Kahlo was well cared for.

Kyra was great to work with and great with Ollie! He loves coming and we love the pictures and updates. She was super flexible as our travel plans had to be modified on both ends due to weather. We will definitely book with Kyra again!

Meghan was great!! She had great communication, was flexible with us on our drop off/pick up times, and provided many updates throughout the stay. There wasn't any doubt that our dog wasn't being well taken care of there. We would use Meghan again and also recommend to others!

Cathy was amazing with my dog. She kept me up to date and sent me photos throughout the stay. She kept my dog active but made sure he was able to relax and snuggle up. I would definitely recommend Cathy for future dog sitting needs.

Ebonee was great with our little girl, her kids and our Atari had lots of fun together. Loved she had a backyard and a doggy door so she could go outside anytime she wanted.

I’ve known Ella for around ten years, and she watches my dog, Josie, at least once a week while I’m at work. She is very attentive to Josie’s needs and is great at understanding what she might be asking for (food, water, outside play time, etc.) She is flexible, responsible, and professional in all of her work, and I would highly recommend to any friends and family to watch your furry friends.

We're entriely comfortable leaving our dog with Jenevieve. She has great communication, and gives us regular updates while our dog is staying with her. Her pup Roman is a great host as well and makes our dog feel right home. They've become the best of pals!

Jessica is amazing! My dogs were very well taken care of and she even won over my very anxious puppy. She kept me updated and sent pictures and videos all along the way and it really meant a lot to me that they felt so comfortable and like part of her family right away. It’s the first time I’ve left them! Her doggo played so well with ours. She’s great! I won’t use anyone else!

I booked a stay at Samantha’s last minute and she was so accommodating! She sent photos regularly and was highly communicative. My dog came back worn out from playing with her dogs and I just know he had the best time. Would definitely book with Samantha again in the future!!

I was not sure how my dog would do with a home with other dogs, but I think he was more stimulated by having them to share time with and still he was spoiled by Michelle! We will definitely count on them for future rover stays!

Kristy was so awesome to our Nyla! Nyla loved playing with Kristy’s dogs and I can tell she really enjoyed her time! She sent us plenty of pictures and videos, which was needed as we missed our pup a bunch. It was our first time away from her since we got her, and we were comforted knowing she was well cared for.
