It is evident she has lots of experience caring for dogs. We would use her again.”

“Emma is the only person my reactive dog is calm and comfortable with. I love that she sends me updates when I'm away and keeps in communication.

19. Irvin & Susan M.


“It was our dogs’ first time away from home. Susan and Irv have been wonderful. They went for walks twice in the 24 hour period that they had them. They even sent us photos and updates on how they were doing. Our dogs have always been wary and anxious around strangers, but with Susan and Irvin, they felt immediately comfortable and so did we. They looked happy when we came to pick them up. We feel at ease leaving our fur babies with them again in the future. Thanks for opening your beautiful home for Tobi and Mochi.”


20. Kevin Z.

“My dog Odin stayed with Kevin and his super friendly Golden Retriever named Hoagie for 2 nights. Odin had such a blast I was thinking he probably would want to stay there permanently! Booking with Kevin was easy, he is attentive, friendly, and I felt that he took outstanding care of my dog throughout his entire stay with him! Kevin’s property is great for dogs and is securely fenced and even on a gated street! I received regular updates with pictures and videos on my dog when they went to play and on plenty of outdoor adventures with him! Odin was truly the happiest dog playing continuously with Hoagie. Kevin was the perfect Rover Host… Professional, caring, and communicative. I would highly recommend booking a stay with him! Thank you again!”
