“Katie and her family did a wonderful job of making our Stella feel at home. She kept us updated with pictures and texts the entire time. It made us feel good that they said they would miss her when she left. Would definitely recommend and use again!”


“Opal was amazing! She took on our sweet guy for a last minute booking. We received constant updates throughout his stay. She was very detailed oriented in getting to know him and what made him comfortable. We felt like he was safe and loved in our absence. We will absolutely we booking with her in the future.”


“Brittney was the answer to all our problems! Our puppy, Rosie, needed last-minute surgery to remove a tumor on her leg right before we left on a trip we couldn't cancel. Since we couldn't board her in a place that couldn't keep careful watch over her at all times, we turned to Rover and found Brittney. Brittney made sure Rosie did not bother her surgery bandage and kept her around dogs with calmer temperaments (Rosie LOVES other dogs and needed to be around dogs that wouldn't get her too riled up and potentially bother her surgery wound). She also took care to ensure Rosie was in her post-surgery cone so she couldn't get to her wound overnight or when they needed to leave the house. She was a pro at giving Rosie her antibiotics and also went above and beyond by taking her to the vet when her bandage slipped off so she could get patched up with a new one. We couldn't have asked for better care for our Rosie while we were away. It wasn't a situation we wanted to be in, but Brittney made it all manageable and we were able to enjoy our trip with no worries over Rosie being taken care of. I should also mention that Rosie is a rescue and is scared of most people she meets. But she seemed to take to Brittney and her husband very quickly after we left, and if that's not a true endorsement, I don't know what is!”


“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”


“Doug has cared for our little doggie, Freddy, a couple of times now. Freddy has diet restrictions that make for extra work, so we are very happy with Doug's attention and care. Great dog sitter! :)”


“Savannah was awesome!!! This was a last minute booking, and she was able to accommodate our dogs. Our dogs were anxious as always, but they were welcomed with open arms. We would absolutely recommend her as sitter and will use her in the future for sure.”


“Kayte was great at sending photos and updating us on our dog, Dixie. Our girl came home happy & tuckered out. We would definitely book again!”


“Jordyn was absolutely wonderful to work with! She took wonderful care of our fur baby, Luka, and was very communicative. He had such a fun time with her and made lots of friends! Thank you again Jordyn!”


“We were just driving through town and needed somewhere for our pup to stay, Carolyn did a phenomenal job working with our crazy schedule. I could tell our dog was well taken care of and felt really comfortable!”


“Harold was so great!! Had a last minute need for some help with my pup, and so glad I chose Harold! Extremely accommodating for my GSP after a move from VA to BHM. Wasn’t ideal but Harold gave me the peace of mind (and CONSTANT updates) that helped me and my dog transition a semi-cross county move. 10/10 recommend.”


“Nancy was a great dog sitter for my two shih tzus! She is set up as a professional & the backyard is amazing! She sent many pictures & videos & was even hand feeding one of my dogs when she wasn’t eating. I highly recommend Nancy for your dog sitter and you will not have to worry about their happiness or safety.”


“Our boy always has the best time with Kyler and her furtastic buddies! I especially appreciate that she really listens, and is attentive to all of our baby’s needs, including working around his allergies and sensitive tummy. She clearly loves the pups and I enjoy seeing the daily photo updates of them playing. A great experience all around!”


“Thanks so much to Rachel and family! We left our furry buddy with her for eight nights and couldn't be happier. She sent daily pics/videos and text updates. We could tell from our pups demeanor and activity that he was as comfortable as being at home. Rachel worked with us on drop off and pick up times. We will definitely use again! Thanks again for making our pup feel at home.”


“Ellie Mae just loves staying at Jnet’s with her family. She is so loved and adored there. She runs right too her and is so happy when I pick her up. I’m so thankful for Janet’s care.”


“Randy did an amazing job of watching my Suki. When I dropped her off he showed me around his house and yard, so I could see where she’d be living while I was away. His home is gorgeous with a really amazing backyard she can run around in. He sent me plenty of pictures and videos so I could see how she was doing. He really went above and beyond. He took her to the pet store and got her a new toy, took her to the dog park multiple times, even gave her a bath and got a special dog shampoo for her. I’ve used this app a lot and never had anyone do as much for my dog as he did. I couldn’t believe he’d been on the app so long and my dog was the first one he’d watched. I’d 10000% recommend Randy to watch your fur baby if you want the peace of mind of knowing they’ll be treated like family. I’d give him 10 stars if I could. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks again Randy!”


“He was absolutely amazing with my baby! I highly recommend him!! I have an orange female cat. She's very, very feisty. She left a huge scratch on him and he wasn't upset at all. He calmly reached out to me and even though I offered to pick her up early, he told me that it was totally fine, that he recognized she was scared, and placed her in an area where she would feel more safe until I was able to come get her. If you need a wonderful, understanding, and compassionate sitter, this is your person. I love how he understood that she needed a higher level of care and took that on hands down, no questions asked. Thank you for being so amazing to my baby!!!”


“We had a great experience with Raeann! She kept me updated on how my pup was doing during his stay and sent me pictures and videos. Grateful to have someone take such good care of him and love on him while we were out of town!”


“Tanya was great, and very patient with me as a first time boarder...Harper seemed to make herself at home there. Will definitely use her again!”


“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time. Danielle treated her like family, and I’m beyond grateful for the safe, clean, and nurturing environment she provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”


About: I've been around dogs and horses my entire life, growing up on a farm where animal care was just part of daily life. We have raised and trained dogs and horses for years, and caring for animals isn’t just something we do but it’s who we are. Your dog will have plenty of space to run, a calm rural setting to relax in, and loving attention while you're away. Whether they’re used to the country life or not, they’ll feel right at home here. Animal care is a core part of our daily routine. Between my lifelong experience with dogs, horses, and all other farm animals, Dollie working from home, and our reliable farm help on-site every day, pet care is built into everything we do. Feeding, walking, playtime, and supervision are all part of our normal day and not something extra. Whether it's early morning or evening, your dog will get the attention and care they need in a calm, structured, and loving farm environment. When caring for pets at the farm, we make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and well-loved. We have a 10-run kennel setup that gives each dog more space than most homes—plenty of room to run, play, and relax in a calm, country setting. We can keep your dog in their own private run or pair them with a friendly companion if they enjoy socializing. Each day includes plenty of exercise, attention, and hands-on care. If you prefer, we can bring your dog into the house each night, or let them enjoy the large runs 24/7. During hot weather, we can also set up a fan for your dog’s comfort. We’re happy to adjust to your pet’s needs to make sure they feel right at home.
