“We just had our very first experience with Rover, and wow, it was fantastic! Peter made everything so easy, which really put our minds at ease. I'm certain Mazzi had an absolute blast during her stay in their spacious yard, and to top it off, she even had a furry friend to keep her company. Drop off was a breeze, they were so accommodating with Mazzi's fresh food, provided regular updates, and sent us the cutest picture of our fur baby. We'd absolutely, without a doubt, book with them again!”

“Lori was wonderful with coqui, he had the best time with her and her husband and pups. Her house is puppy proofed and she’s super organized and knowledgeable about dogs and puppies so I was comfortable dropping him off. She sent me loads of cute pics while I was out of town and when I picked him up, he was better on his leash, better followed the command to wait on his meal til I said ok, and even learned to shake. We’re still working on the rollover trick she started teaching him. I’d def bring him back to play at her house. Thanks Lori!”

“Allison was absolutely fantastic! She and her husband could not have been any kinder. Our dog felt comfortable with her immediately at our meet and greet, and did great with them in their home while we were away. Allison’s communication was great, she sent multiple photos and videos each day, showing how happy our pup was. We will absolutely be leaving our dog with her again in the future, we can’t thank her enough!”

“I booked Houda and her family for my wedding weekend. I have 2 cats and they did so good with them! I loved that they were completely separate from any other animals and I didn’t have to worry about them. They took care of them as they were their own. 10/10 sweetest family!”

“Shirley took amazing care of Rufus. We appreciate her care and concern for his health and comfort. Rufus is an old man (18 years old) and needs extra care and attention.Shirley made sure Rufus was comfortable and provided him with special food to make sure he ate.”

About: With more than 30 years of dedicated experience with dogs, I bring a deep passion for canine behavior, working breeds, and structured, purpose-driven care. I have owned and nurtured dogs since I was 12. I have developed extensive hands-on experience with all breeds especially dominant and high-drive working dogs. I am a business owner and set my own schedule. Every dog that stays with me becomes part of the family. I focus on creating a safe, positive, and instinct-honoring environment where dogs can grow mentally, emotionally, and physically. I combine a loving home environment with professional-level knowledge and training. Dogs stay in a spacious, enriching setting with plenty of room to run, explore, and socialize with a balanced, well-managed pack. In addition to daycare and boarding, I offer basic obedience training and conformation training, giving dogs a solid foundation in manners, confidence, and proper structure.
“Rachael was a great sitter for our sweet dog. She accommodated my busy schedule and my last minute request -- and was very communicative throughout his stay. She provided frequent updates and assured me that my pup was safe and enjoying his stay. Highly recommend, Rachael!”

“Eileen was an amazing sitter for our dog! She provided a loving home and patience and updated us daily while we were on vacation for over a week. It was so great to know our little one was being taken care of so well while we were away. We highly recommend you book with Eileen!”


“Colleen was a wonderful babysitter for our dog and kitten while we went on a family vacation for a week. She sent detailed and sweet updates every day with lots of pictures that we loved receiving. She went above and beyond showering our babies with extra toys, treats and love. We will absolutely use her again!”

“Amazing! We can’t say enough good things about this experience. We found Virginie & Maxime’s listing here on Rover and it was perfect from there forward. We had a meet and greet which included our pup Blue and their daughter Louise. She did great with Blue and we dropped him off a few days later. He had beautiful walks and playtimes which were shared with us via video. They even kept up with his commands and training. But best of all were the interactions with the family. Looked like he got hugs and cuddles every day. Our daughter who is 5 was so happy he had kids to play with that enjoyed holding him. We would definitely trust this family with our pup if care is needed again. Thank you all for making it such a low stress and happy experience for everyone! We were lucky to find you and your lovely family.”

“This was our first time leaving our nearly 3 year old dog with someone and Lisa was fantastic. She and her home are so dog friendly. Communication was great including working with us to facilitate a slightly earlier than planned pick up. We’ll definitely be using Lisa again.”

“Our 5month old yorkie, Bowie, stayed with Barsha and her family for one night while we were out of town. This was his first time away and Barsha communicated and sent photos and videos throughout so that we could see how he was adjusting. Bowie came home exhausted and happy from all the attention he received from the family and other pups staying at the house. Thanks, Barsha!”

“Awa was incredible for my little Jax! She is awesome with sending daily update videos and communication is perfect.I couldn’t ask for better and I will definitely be bringing Jax to her when I have another out of state trip! She’s took amazing care of Jax! A+++”

“We had a great experience with Peter. He and his family took great care of our pup. He was very easy to communicate with and sent updates with pictures throughout our pup’s stay. We felt reassured that our pup was doing well and cared for. Would definitely recommend and use for future stays!”


“We are again so fortunate to have found Sally. Everytime Katsu and Kimchi stays with Sally, they have a vacation. From open indoor-outdoor playgrounds to making new doggy friends to ongoing videos and pictures that are lovingly taken, we feel our boys are always in wonderful hands.”

“Liam and his wife took great care of our 16 year old senior dog. Usually our dog has separation anxiety and does not eat or sleep well, however, after a 11 day stay our dog appeared well rested and had maintained his weight. Their property is fully enclosed and very large (1 acre) so it allows dogs space to roam around and get exercise. In addition the Iron horse trail is next door and easily accessible for walks. Liam is very friendly and clearly is a dog person. Our dog actually was looking for them when we brought him home so in that short amount of time he became attached to them. I would highly recommend Liam and his wife to take care of your dog!”

“This family took such great care of our babies. We had daily communication and pictures and videos. Lilo and Stitch looked so happy and energetic! They loved playing with Loki. Dipankar and Nagma took extra care in grooming Lilo and training her on walks. Also taking care of Stitch’s ear infection by applying his drops. We appreciate them so much. We will for sure hire them again in the future, as they are like another family for our babies. Thank you Dipankar and Nagma for all your care, patience and love for Lilo and Stitch.”

Our pup had a wonderful time staying with Joseph, Ofelia and their kids. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Mishka was loved and well cared for. Communication was excellent and they were flexible with last minute changes to the schedules. Highly recommended! We would be happy to have Mishka visit again.

Doug and his family have kept our dog Lennon several times now. They always take great care of her and she seems to have the time of her life with them! Doug sends plenty of updates and photos throughout her stay with them. I can tell that she always gets plenty of love and attention while at their house.

Our first time staying with Nancy and we will definitely request her again. Great communication and pictures. Our dog was so happy to arrive and quickly made himself at home. He had a few special instructions and she followed each one exactly. I feel very comfortable leaving our dog with Nancy.
