“Sheri was great. She made sure to send us pictures daily while also making sure our dog got a ton of exercise and attention. Our chocolate lab Daisy and her chocolate lab Sam got along great. She also made sure to clean our dog's ears every day for us since she was having issues with a yeast infection from playing in the ocean. I would recommend her for everybody. ”
“Rachel took great care of our Ruby while we were away. She kept us updated on how she was doing and sent pics of her during her stay. She looked genuinely happy. We will definitely bring Ruby there again in the future.”
“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”
“Emily took expert care of our two dogs and were able to accommodate last minute for us due to a family emergency. Emily was super communicative and sent lots of update photos frequently. We were never worried about our dogs being in her care and her pup Olive was a great companion that made sure our dogs had a fun playmate to tire them out! I couldn’t have been happier with Emily and Kenneth boarding our dogs, 100% would recommend to a friend.”
“Our dog was well cared for and had fun while we were away. Brit made everything easy for us and helped make us feel comfortable leaving our dog for the first time. We will happily reach out again the next time it’s needed.”
“A wonderful pet sitter! Very communicative and warm. She was able to accommodate our last minute request, sent us updates and photos of our doggy while we were away, which was very reassuring, and she was flexible and understanding when our ferry delayed our pickup time by almost an hour. We would recommend her and be happy to have her care for our pup again in the future.”
“Angela and her family were the most amazing hosts for our adventure cat. They gave him all that he needed, and more, to make him feel at home. We are truly grateful for their care for our fur baby. Could not recommend more highly.”
“Our Theo had a great time with Kayla. She sent us photos and updated us on how he was doing through out the week. We would absolutely rebook with her again when we go out of town.”
“Franklin & family were amazing and my two dogs had a blast at their house. They enjoyed running around their large fenced yard. We were given regular updates several times a day, along with lots of pictures. I would definitely recommend boarding your dogs here.”
“Jenifer was great! She provided a great home for our dog to stay at while we were out of town! She had an understanding of dogs that made me feel comfortable leaving our dog Penny with her. 100% will use her again!”
“Absolutely amazing, her communication was amazing and she was so friendly and understanding. She consistently sent me pictures and videos of my kitten which helped so much with my nerves about leaving him. I will forever recommend Katie as a pet sitter!”
“Sheri was great! They responded fast and sent updates throughout the day. Prior plans fell through so it was kind of last minute and they were fantastic with both my dogs.”
“David is an awesome sitter. He was very proactive in sharing photos and videos of my pet, and he was also able to accommodate by my early drop and release requests. Candy had great fun in his company. I will be more than happy to use David's services in future.”
“We love leaving our fur baby with Danielle. She is so professional and communicates so well with us while our dog is with her. Anyone looking for a sitter she is your person.”
“We left our pup with Holly for a week. She was always prompt with responses and took excellent care of him. Holly sent daily pictures and updates. Bruno was happy in Holly’s care. I could tell by pictures and his behavior when we arrived to pick him up. Holly is very friendly and caring. Thank you! We will definitely be back!”
“Lucy had a really good time at Suzanne's. She was well cared for and played with the other dogs. We would be happy to leave Lucy with Suzanne again when we go away for a weekend.”
“Nicole is just the best! Benji just had his first overnight visit and I felt totally comfortable knowing she would take such great care of him. Can’t say enough great things about her and the love and care she shows to my pup!”

Samantha did amazing with our two dogs! She was super flexible with pick up/ drop off times which was really nice because we had some travel delays. We enjoyed her updates throughout the week with pictures. Her two daughters seemed so excited to have our dogs there, which was really sweet! She was accommodating and seemed very experienced! Our dogs came home tired and well cared for. We would love to use Samantha again for dog boarding!
