Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).

Excellent sitter! Extremely accommodating. We picked up our dog two days ago and she’s still sleeping, so she must have had fun. Very recommended.

All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol

This was my 2nd time using Carolyn & Jonathan for Brooklyn. They are amazing and they take care of Brooklyn like their own!!! Lots of walks & cuddles. They send lots of pictures and updates too! It’s so comforting to go away knowing she's in such good hands. I’ll definitely be using them again!!! 10/10 recommend!!!

I couldn’t have imagined a better experience than what Elizabeth (Beth) provided for my dog Liesel. Liesel is a fairly new rescue and I was concerned that it might be a bit traumatic changing homes even for a short period of time. However, her will stay with Beth, her family, and darling dog Otis was without a doubt an adventurous and happy vacation for Liesel. Beth makes sure there is plenty of exercise, play, and love for your pet…just as if your pup is one of her own. Liesel even came home with some new training for which I am very grateful. I highly recommend Beth - you can absolutely leave your dog in her care with the confidence that they will be treated and cared for in the best way possible. Thank you so very much, Beth… Liesel is looking forward to her next visit with you and your family…Liesel sends her love and appreciation 💗 Jean

Bronwyn was an excellent sitter. She treated my dog, Dash, like her own family. She updated me with pictures and captions all day so I could see how much fun he was having. I could relax and enjoy what I was doing because I knew he was in such good hands. I highly recommend her services and will definitely re-book with her.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Aaron took such great care of Rufus while we were away. He kept us updated with lots of photos and great communication throughout the week. We really appreciated the extra attention to his comfort and well-being. Rufus clearly loved his stay and honestly didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!

This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more happy. We typically take Dory with us on all our trips but we’re restricted due to time constraints and events held out of state. We were initially nervous to leave Dory overnight and have her stay with someone but she absolutely loved her stay with Patti, Oliver, and especially Beulah. Loved the picture and video updates and Patti was so responsive to our inquiries this nervous dog mom. Dory loved her time at Patti’s so much that we booked two more stays. Thank you Beulah for playing so much with Dory!

Jordyn is fantastic with dogs! Her calm and loving personality was a great match for our hyper “still-a-puppy” at three years of age goldendoodle. She is one of the best sitters we have had! She made our dog feel at home in her home and we could not have asked for more. I absolutely recommend booking with her!

This was my pup's second time staying with Trey and her second time having a safe and exciting place to stay while I was away. Tilly had so much fun playing with Trey's dogs and I could see from the updates that she was getting out and about and working off all her energy. Already have a time booked for later this summer!

Jessica took great care of my girl Cora. She is super sweet and I could tell Cora made herself right at home. Her kitty was also part of the welcoming committee 😂. She was flexible on drop off/pick up times. I would definitely use Jessica’s services again!

I’m so grateful for Steffani and her family for taking care of my girl Cora like she was their own. This is the 2nd time she has stayed with them and I have no worries when she is there. Cora is the sweetest girl you will ever meet but she can be a bit needy and high energy. They handle her so well and I can tell from the pictures they send that Cora feels right at home. Thanks so much Steffani and Josh (and Levi too☺️)!

We have been bringing our dog to Bronwen for a number of years. When we pull into Bronwen's driveway, Trixie jumps right out and runs to get into Bronwen's backyard without a backward glance. She loves going to Bronwen, and we get lots of updates. Trixie can be a picky eater, but Bronwen always gets her to eat. Trixie comes home tired and happy. Highly recommend Bronwen!

Maurisa is the best dog boarding in the area. She’s kind and loving and sends lots of pictures and clearly loves and adores the pups while we take a vacation. This is the second time we’ve had the pleasure of getting her to board our two chihuahuas, and I recommend her if you’ve got precious fur babies. I especially appreciate that she used our dogs special vest that he needs to feel better when it thunders. Thanks Maurisa!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First-Time Rover Experience – So Grateful for Leah! This was my first time using Rover, and I was initially a little apprehensive since my dogs have only ever been boarded at a facility. But after our meet and greet with Leah, I immediately felt at ease. She was warm, professional, and clearly an animal lover. While I was away, Leah sent me daily updates and pictures, which meant so much. My dogs looked happy, relaxed, and completely at home. It was clear they were comfortable and enjoying themselves, and it gave me such peace of mind. I truly appreciate the care and attention Leah gave them—it felt like they were part of her family. I will absolutely be booking with her again the next time I need boarding. Highly recommend!
