1. Katie & Jeremy W.

“Jeremy & katie are a genuine dream rover! Great communication, lots of pictures, kid and other dog-play, walks—a dog summee camp! They had our Rex for about a week and we picked him up safe & sound. We would definitely recommend them to future Rover users!”


2. Jessica & John C.

“Jessica and John and their sweet family took wonderful care of my pup. I was definitely at ease, they sent lots of updates and pictures and I could tell that my dog was very well taken care of and very happy in their home. Would highly recommend, and will be using again.”


3. Lorna P.


“We're so glad that we found Lorna. When we travel it's reassuring to know that our furry kids are in a quiet, calm and safe place. Thank you Lorna!”




4. Nancy S.


“Nancy and Jay were an excellent choice and wonderful hosts to my miniature Dachshund, Gus, during our travel abroad. He was welcomed in and comforted immediately with special attention given to his personality and individual needs. He was allowed to be his usual self, something a boarding facility lacks, and for that I am grateful. Everyday I received an update and picture. I was also quite impressed that he had an additional ID tag on his collar for safety. The home is a very warm environment with a great backyard. There is a lot of love to animals here and I would recommend Nancy and Jay to all. We will be using them again in the future! Cheers!”


5. Joseph & Andrea W.

“Again, couldn’t be happier with the care my sweet baby gets from Joseph and Andrea. They were super accommodating when my plans changed at the last second and I had to move things around. It made my vacation so much less stressful knowing my dog was in good hands.”


6. Brody G.

“Nellie had a great time. Brody was kind and Nellie enjoyed her stay. He sent me video’s showing me how Nellie was doing. She loved running and playing with the other dogs. I loved the fact she was not in a crate. I hope to continue using Brody for other occasions.”

I highly recommend them as they were great with our puppy.”

11. Kenzie H.

“Kensie is AMAZING!!!!! This was our first experience with pet sitting and we NOT let down. Kenzie is just so kind and patient and that was very comforting and reassuring to us first timers. She sent updates with videos/photos throughout the visit and we could see our little chihuahua was soooo happy. Kenzie’s dog was also just the sweetest friend for our little dog. Warmed our hearts to see our little girl being so playful with her little fur fella. This experience has really made us excited about planning future trips, and even day trips, when Kenzie has availability. HANDS DOWN a 10+++++++!!!!”
