“My older lab had a great time with Burgandy! I really appreciated the great communication, photo updates, and schedule flexibility! Looks forward to using Burgandy again!”
“Great sitter! Sent pictures how my Harley was doing. Great picture! Harley was very happy with Kim. Kim was very kind and patient with Hailey. I felt Harley was very safe with Kim and she spoiled him like he was one of her own. Excellent 👌.”
“Kayti was great, our dog loved being there, she sent photos to update us on how our dog was doing, she was flexible with our time, would highly recommend her to anybody.”
“It was my first time having Kathy take care of my pup while we went out of town. While he was excited to see me when I picked him up, he continued to follow Kathy around - a good sign he was well cared for! She sent pictures and gave me updates on how things were going during his stay and I appreciated that. I would definitely have her watch Domino again.”
“It’s always a 5/5 experience with Erin! Our pup loves going there and she gives him so much love. This past time he wasn’t feeling too well before we dropped him off so Erin kept a close eye on him and sent us extra pictures/videos which put us more at ease. Absolutely recommend!”
“Susan was great! very communicative and flexible. We came from out of town for a wedding and just needed someone for the night and it worked out great. Calvin, my dog, is a very dog friendly dog and got along with her dog finn very well who seems mild tempered. Susan sent me pictures and reassured me that Calvin was enjoying himself. If we’re ever back in the area I will definitely be using Susan again.”
“Stacey was the BEST. Like any dog parents, we were nervous leaving our dogs in a new home. However, that changed quickly. Even with our dogs high energy and demands, they stayed safe, comfortable, and loved. We will be able to enjoy our family vacations so much more now that we know our dogs are safe and cared for while away!!”
“Vickie took great care of our pup. He was not used to be arround other dogs prior, Vickie took the time to put him at ease and gently introduce him to her dog. They got along great. Thank you Vickie for sending us multiple pics and updates during his stay.”
“Bennet was so great with my senior toy poodle! I'm always a little nervous about my dog meeting other dogs because she can be anxious, but Bennet made sure she was always comfortable around other dogs, and by the end of the weekend, I think my dog had even made some friends! I will absolutely be reaching out to Bennet the next time I travel.”
“Logan did a fantastic job. My dog was very happy and well cared for. I highly recommend”
“Kaleigh was great with my dogs! She took great care of them while we were out of town. Sent me several pictures too which eased my mind about having a new sitter. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thanks Kaleigh for everything you did for the girls!”
“She was kind and loving with my 2 big girls, and even tho there were some accidents (not used to a home without a doggy door) she was kind and understanding. She also sent frequent pics and updates so I didn't worry. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Or dog was well taken care of. She was very happy staying with Michelle. We're so glad we found someone to take care of our fur baby. We will for sure contact her again to watch our dog”
“I was trying for 2 weeks to find a boarder for my dog Bandit, cause the hotel said we could bring dogs. So I scrambled and someone I knew said just go on Rover and you should be able to find one. I looked through all of them and met Jesse. I paid and booked. She was so nice before we even met at drop off. Then when I got there with Bandit her and her kids met us and Bandit was a little worried but Jesse made sure to text me and send photos everyday of how much fun he was having! Made me so happy! When we got Bandit back we picked him up and he was so happy to see us and I think he was ready to tackle me from excitement. She again said how good he did and everything, and we'll I can't say enough about the love and care they gave my dog. You can definitely a return visit from us! Thank you again!”

“Kalon did such a wonderful job!! Great communication, pictures, and care for my dog Frank. I will definitely be using her for future dog care needs!!!”
“Megan was an all star! She treated our pack as if they were her own. The dogs came home sleepy and smelling so good, so that must mean she played with them well. We will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend”
“She sent multiple pictures and messages about how Joan was doing. The whole stay was easy to set up, drop off was easy, and communication was exactly what I wanted. Thanks Heather we will keep you in mind for next time!”
“We highly recommend Julie. She was very personable and friendly- Handled everything professionally and has excellent communication. Beautiful clean home. Brody and Bailey we’re both very happy there. The pictures were great. Look forward to visiting again. ?”
“Jennifer was amazing with our two 1 year old pups. She is great at reading dog behavior and even helped train them a bit while they stayed. She kept in touch and sent pictures while we were gone too. She was very responsive to all my messages and concerns. She really did care for them like we would have! They also made friends with a few of her dogs. She was amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or trainer with experience!”
