“I highly recomend Michele. She was always quick to respnd. She sent many pictures every day so I could see that my boy was enjoying his stay. She has a beautiful backyard that my boy enjoyed running around. The best part of my boys stay at Michele's house is that he made a bunch of new playmates cand canine fcompanions.”

“My frenchie had the BEST time with Lindsay and her puppy!!!! Lindsay sent me pics daily, and whenever I asked for one. My baby literally had so much fun at her house, I think he sulked for a few days after ? Lindsay will be our go to for boarding in the future.”

“As a first time user of Rover and first time search for a cat sitter, Elena definitely set the standard. From the first contact, Elena was incredibly responsive, very kind, and extremely welcoming of my babies. Elena and her children took such good care of my babies, as they allowed them space to adjust while being open to their affection as they warmed up. I had peace of mind that my babies were in good hands as she invited them into her home with open arms. When I picked Pocket and Rocket up, they were so soft from freshly brushed hair and calmer to get back into the car. I would absolutely recommend Elena to take care of your cats, as they will get plenty of cuddles, play time, and freedom to explore their new space. Thank you, Elena and kids!!”

“We’re so grateful for the great care Katelyn took of Hank! And appreciate all the communication - receiving pictures, videos, and updates on how well it was going. It was our first time entrusting Hank to a dog sitter so I was nervous but it went perfectly!”

“Carlie and her family could not have been more loving and attentive. Arlo probably wanted to live there forever. She was incredibly kind about a mistake I made on pick up time.”

“Kelly and Maurice are more than awesome. I know that Zuri will be well care for and loved when I have to leave town. They treat her like family. They send videos and pics for reassurance that things are going well. I appreciate their professionalism and true dedication. They implemented some changes for their customers based on what they observed from my experience with them. That is more than customer service, that’s customer satisfaction. They are an A1 service all the way around.”

“Shuling always makes me feel so much better about leaving my needy dog, manny, when I go for vacation. He always comes back with a huge smile and has so much fun playing with her dog, Bear. Thank you so much, Shuling!!”

“Our first visit was so smooth. My dog seemed immediately comfortable with Katie. She sent pictures through the weekend and was flexible with pickup times. We are already looking to rebook her for next month. Thanks Katie?”
“Jasmine took wonderful care of our dog Hank over a long weekend for us. Hank came home happy and healthy and had a fun time with Jasmine! Jasmine is communicative, flexible, responsive, and a real animal lover. Your pets are in good hands here with her!”

“Marliez took amazing care of Ozzie. He walked with her Husky Wolf several times a day receiving plenty of needed exercise. Oz was received as part of her family. I could tell from the photos he was really enjoying his stay and looking forward to go back. Marliez paid attention to the nuance of my dog's antics to adjust to him. She is a wonderful sitter”

“Jillian and her family/animals were amazing! Happy loved playing with other dogs. She was very friendly and loving with our dog. We will definitely be back 😁”

“This was our first time boarding Black with a sitter, and Crystal provided a great experience for Black and for us. When we dropped him off, he didn’t even look back as she ushered him inside which told us he was comfortable with Crystal from the very beginning. When we picked Black up, he was excited to see us AND sad for his weekend with Crystal to come to an end. Black had a couple of behavioral issues during his stay and Crystal was very attentive taking great care of his needs and keeping us updated with great photos and detailed reports. We highly recommend Crystal.”


“Willow had the best time with Shelby and her pup Ellie. Instant best friends. I felt totally confident that our 4 year old dog was having a vacation all her own the entire weekend. Lots of time outside, on walks, playing, and snuggling. 100% would recommend and feeling so happy we have a go-to sitter :) thank you guys!”

“Celena was great! She sent tons pictures of our boy having a great time and she had plenty of updates. We also appreciate that she worked with us on our drop-off and pick-up times! We will definitely work with her again!”

“Eli was awesome! My dog is somewhat shy but she took to Eli right away. Eli picked my furbaby up and once he was back to his home he sent a picture of my pooch and where she had her kennel setup. Skittles was able sit and stare out the windows, which she loves to do. I received plenty of pictures to put me at ease. Eli also had a camera setup so I could see my dog if I wanted!!! I’m super happy with Eli as he was on time for pickup and drop off and overall is a very nice person! I will definitely board my dog with Eli again!!!!”

Lindsay really treated Ruby like her own. Her family is fantastic and they took extraordinary care of my golden while I was out of town. She was receptive to my dogs needs, updated me regularly, loved on my girl and was overall the best pick I could imagine for boarding. I will use her services again in the future. Thank you so much!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our dog, Murphy, during our wedding weekend. Murphy was our ring bearer and Melanie brought him to and from the venue for us. She sent us pictures and videos of him enjoying play time and went above and beyond to make sure Murphy was ready for his ring bearer duties. When we picked him up, he could not have been a happier puppy! This was the first time he ever spent away from family and Melanie was the perfect option. Thank you for making our baby feel right at home. I know he loved his time with you!
