“Sandra was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with, and I knew Otis was in great hands. He came home happy and relaxed after his stay. ✨”


“Aishea was nice and welcoming to Charlie. He felt comfortable immediately with her. Charlie was very well taken care of. Kept me updated of how he was and sent picture and videos. Will definitely recommend. Thank you Aishea!”


“Ayla seemed to love her. Angie was in contact and sent photos everyday. I loved the pics. She was around to answer questions and responded timely. I would book with her again. Thank you so much Angie!”


“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Our puppy Koda was staying away from home for the first time, and Novelette took amazing care of him. She kept us updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Koda had a blast and came home happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again!”


“This was the first boarding experience for my 2 year old fur baby and it could not have gone better. Heather and Norman are the BEST! They were very accommodating and commutative. Rita LOVED her time in their home. It truly was her home away from home. I will definitely be using Heather and Norm in the future. Thank you guys for everything!”


“Amy was awesome!! My dogs enjoyed her family so much. All the basics were met as indicated in daily pictures. But in addition my pups were showered with love and attention from the minute they arrived to the minute we left. Taz and Darby got along great with Amy’s dog Mayzie and now they have a new friend. I will definitely book with Amy again. The care she gave my pups put me at ease while on vacation!👍”


“Mary was wonderful! She was super communicative and sent photos of our dogs throughout the time that we were gone. They went on lots of walks we knew our dogs were well taken care of. Highly recommend!”


“First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.”


“10 out of 10 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ‼️‼️‼️‼️ Use Allison to watch your fur babies! You will not regret it. I had an unfortunate situation and she came through and my dog-ter had a great time. It brings a different type of peace to an individual when you know your fur animal is loved and well taken care of. We will see you in the near future 🤎”



“Karen is fantastic! My dog Jackson loves staying at her house with her two little dogs. She sends lots of photos and Jackson always looks happy. She is a great sitter!”

“Lindsey was fantastic. She was so flexible and responsive and really spoiled our pup (in a good way!) with brain teasing treats and play time. We were nervous because this was our first time not leaving our pup with a family member, but Lindsey took such good care of her and was patient with her energy and all her quirks. Highly recommend!”


“Caitlin boarded our dog Frodo for a week, it was our first time leaving our dog with anyone. We couldn't be more pleased with the care Frodo receive from the family and the communication pictures and videos were great as well ! We highly recommend Caitlin and her family for pet care. We look forward to using them again.”


“Glorymar and her husband are so welcoming, friendly and polite! Billy Ray had a nice time there, and she gave a full report, so I could tell how very much she cared for our precious boy! She was also very accommodating and flexible with our plans.”


“Hannah was great! Walter had the best time playing with Wolf and even got to go on a trip to play with other dogs! The big fences in back yard was amazing and I loved getting pics of him throughout.”


“This was Mabel's second stay with Jenelly and she had a lovely time. We received photos and updates throughout the week and it was clear that Jenelly and her husband were tuned into what Mabel needed and what she enjoys. Mabel came back to us (after she offered a cute goodbye to Jenelly at the door) content and calm, which is a great sign that she had a good visit.”



“Steve and Deb are amazing! Our pup had the best time. They kept her active and treated her like one of the family, just like at home. I received constant picture updates and messages about how she was doing. We are already booking a return stay. Avry came home happy and tired.”


“Saktah did a great job taking care of my elderly and rather unfriendly kitty, Koshka, for two weeks while I was vacationing. She was very professional, organized, and caring, kept me updated on how my kitty was adjusting, and showed genuine affection and concern for her. She's driven to get things right and wants your pet to be as comfortable as they can be while you're gone. So if you (like me) have a pet that needs extra love and care, and you'd like to relax during your vacation knowing they're in good hands, go with Saktah. She's got you covered.”
