Top rated Cato dog boarders


“Ellen & John have continued to provide amazing care and company for my puppy. I travel frequently and every time I have needed to board her, they have been available even on short notice! The communication and flexibility has been a godsend. Ellen & John will always be my first go-to!”


“Dan & Teresa are excellent! They went above and beyond to take care of Drax. He had so much fun! Definitely would recommend boarding with them!”


“Susan took very good care of Bailey. She was very responsive to any concerns either of us had. I had surgery and she let us add on a couple of nights as I felt better. Definitely would use her again.”


“I had a surprise hospital stay and needed to find a safe place for Minnie for a week. Leah and her family were so cooperative, sent pictures every day along with some delightful comments. And she was so good to accommodate an early drop off and a few extra days. Such a nice home. Minnie went right to Leah which doesn't happen often so I knew she was in the right place. Will definitely use Leah again...it was a relief not to worry about my Zen pup.”


“She went above and beyond to care for my baby. I will never use another sitter again unless she is unavailable! I cannot recommend her enough! She treated her like family, kept me updated constantly, and had such a genuinely positive attitude the entire time. I have absolutely nothing negative to add and no wishes that she did anything differently! I have never met anyone I could trust my baby Marshmallow with more!”


“Corey was great! This was the second time I have used him for daycare. He was flexible with my schedule. He sent cute pics and videos of my dog too!”


“Erix took in my dog for boarding with little notice. He took great care of her and sent me many pictures while I was on my work trip. Definitely recommend if you’re looking to house your animal with him.”



“Georgianne was a wonderful sitter for my anxious lil pup! She sent photos regularly of Sadie Mae playing with her pup Penny and just lounging around. I will be using her again! :)”



“Tana was great with our older golden retriever, I would highly recommend to anyone. Was responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates; we could tell he was well cared for and got lots of love!!!!”



“Alara is a sweetheart! Our Daisy is very docile and Alara's gentle nature was exactly what Daisy needed. Alara was great about sending us updates as well As a couple of photos. This allowed for us to feel good about leaving our girl with Alara. We were able to enjoy our time away without having to worry about Daisy having great care while we were away. We will definitely be repeat customers with Alara.”


“Talitha was amazing with our Gypsy!! We met in advance to be sure of everyone getting along. We were provided pictures and reports at anytime we requested plus reports on “just saying hello” with a picture or two!! Gypsy was super happy to have the huge yard to run in and had plenty of exercise along with lots of snuggle time!! Talitha you are our go to!! And we will definitely be sending your Rover profile to anyone looking to book your services!! Thank you again for making our best friend feel like family while we were away!!!!”


“This is Zena's second time with Sam and she loved it. Sam is great with Zena. Sam is aware of Zena's triggers and needs. Zena had a full yard to hunt and play in. Sam sent videos and pictures daily and of Zenas activities and communicated in a friendly and timely manner. Zena loves hanging out with Brown Dog! Without a doubt, I will make more reservations. Thank you Sam!”


“First time leaving my dog anywhere and was worried because he is a very fussy eater. Aniessa and her family welcomed Cody with open arms and made him immediately feel like part of the family. I received great photos of his “vacation” which totally put me at ease. He probably received better care than he gets from me!”


“Thank you so much, Molly & Nikola, for taking such amazing care of Kenyesita! She had an absolute blast on her adventures and played so much that she was completely tuckered out by the time she got home. It’s clear she was in great hands, and we truly appreciate the love and attention you gave her. We’ll definitely be booking with you again!”


“Being our first board with our puppy we were very apprehensive. We got numerous photos from Jocelyn a day. Many including her family. Really put us at ease. Definitely would bring her back.”


“Tiffany did a great job taking care of my pup for 3 days. She’s got a great fenced in yard to play in, she took her for walks & sent plenty of pics & updates. My dog & hers got along great; we’ll definitely use Tiffany again. I highly recommend Tiffany to take care of your pup!”


“She was Fantastic”


“We found Yan at the last minute when another dog sitter fell through. She was able to take on our 3 dogs so we could salvage our roadtrip! Our girls are timid and very high energy, but she had them walking along her happily and playing lots of fetch. She sends lots of updates and photos to keep you in the know. Our girls came home happy and wore out from all the play. Yan is a very good sitter and we will be using her again.”


“My Bella and I absolutely love Kimberly. It is so comforting that when we get to Kimberly's, Bella runs over and goes right into her home. Kimberly sends me pictures and compliments about my Bella....it makes my heart smile. THANK YOU to Kimberly for making me feel like my Bella's at her home away from home.”
