1. Yancy & Amanda S.
“Amanda and Yancy did an amazing job. My dog was there for a stretch of 6 days for his first time, and I immediately felt good about leaving him there after the initial meet and greet. Barney felt right at home on their acreage, and I know he had a lot of fun playing!”
2. Karin C.
“Five stars for Karin (and her family). They are a treasure and Watson enjoyed his stay with them. I felt comfortable leaving our 6 month old puppy with her as not only is she a kind, generous and caring person - BONUS here - Karin was a vet in her home country. It is a pleasure to recommend her and I am confident you’ll find the same great qualities in Karin as I did.”
3. Heather S.
“I highly recommend Heather for dog boarding. She took such good care of Lucy, even though Lucy is a bit sensitive and doesn’t like to be away from home. She notices the details, and we got regular updates. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Sarah Jane and Leo took excellent care of my Frenchton for a total of 3 days.

Her place has shade and room for dogs to roam with an awesome view from the house. Sarah Jane will take care of your canine family member with heart and my little guy trusted her immediately and so did I. We’ll be back!”

“Annie is one of the most caring compassionate people I know, she has an absolute adoration for animals. She has been the go to pet sitter for my family and friends. She has always been very attentive, responsible, and considerate to any additional requirements necessary (dietary restrictions, specific meal times/walking routes etc). I would highly recommend her as a loving pet caretaker.”
17. Amy L.
“We were first time Rover users and were a little nervous at the prospect of leaving our pup with someone who wasn’t family but Amy made us feel reassured and confident that she would be well taken care of. Amy invited us over for a quick hello prior to boarding our pooch. Right away it was evident that Amy is warm, good natured and caring. Additionally, her place is like a dog’s paradise - right on the lake with primo swimming and hiking! Amy sent us daily updates with pictures of them hiking, swimming and lounging around together. Communication with Amy was also a breeze! 5/5 big thanks Amy!!!”
18. erika f.
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats my whole life. I’ve also cared for friends dogs over the years. I’m happy to take mellow dogs of any age on walks or overnight stays. Im only out about 3 days a week and working from home the rest of the time so it’s easy for me to be flexible and available to spend time with your pet. I live in a bus so it’s a relatively small space. There is room on the couch or floor to set up a spot for pets.
19. Justin K.
“I was nervous leaving my dog Rufus with a new sitter, but Justin was great. He answered my emails very quickly and sent photos and videos so I could see Rufus was settling in and having a good time. When I was late picking him up, Justin said no problem and kept Rufus an extra couple of hours. I will definitely ask Justin to take care of Rufus when I go away again.”
20. Michelle R.
“Michelle was so lovely and welcoming to Luca. And I so appreciated her flexibility with my bananas work schedule. I'm certain Leroy kept him engaged because he's been asleep for almost 12 hours post visit!”
