“This is our first Rover booking and we couldn't be happier. Brooke did an excellent job of making sure our "new to us" rescue dog had a good experience. Amee got to read stories at bedtime and take walks with the family. She'll be back for more fun.”


“Our dogs has a great weekend with Steve and Tillie! They came home happy exhausted and had so much fun. We know they got lots of love and attention from the whole family. We appreciated the meet and greet beforehand and the pictures during their stay. We hope to return again !”


“This was Rosey's first time staying with Wendy. She seemed very relaxed and felt safe and comfortable in all of the correspondence I received. Communication was A+. Wendy is very knowledgeable about dogs and has a great/safe place to board. Makes visiting dog feel welcome. We will definitely go to Wendy's again!”


“Nicole provided a fun and comfortable stay for our Sophie, even on short notice. I appreciate the prompt communication and picture pupdates while we were away. Thanks Nicole!”


About: I know how energetic dogs are, and I am as well so we’re a perfect match! I can keep them entertained while they are also making my day so much brighter! I am a full time student but classes do not take up much of my day! I love to go on long walks and I can entertain any dog for hours. I can do late afternoons and mornings, as well as nights if need be. I have 2 dogs at home, but here at college I do not have any pets. My apartment does allow pets so it would be no problem to have them over:) I also have the option of a fenced in yard if your little pup prefers to run around freely.

“Samantha was amazing! She send me photos and updates of Carl and was so helpful to do a late pickup because of my flight delay. I would definitely feel safe and happy if I get to board Carl with her.”


“We loved Madison!! Our bloodbound Belle is the sweetest dog but with her size can be a handful..Madison was wonderful with her.....and her dog and our dog Belle became fast friends. I would definitely reccomend her!!!”


“Kelly was a blessing. I was looking for someone to care for my Basset Hounds for a couple weeks while I had surgery and beginnings of my recovery. As soon as I met her I could tell she was a great match. My dogs were felt welcome and made themselves at home. Kelly sent daily pictures, videos and updates. I never felt like I had to worry about the dogs being cared for. Her family us very caring. I highly recommend her for the care of your pet. Two thumbs up! ??”


“Briana and her husband were great with our Dakota! They shared pictures and communicated with us daily. They have a large fenced in backyard which was great for the pups to run and play in. They do daily enrichment activities and treats with the pups to keep them entertained. We know Dakota had a great stay!”


“Communicated really fast with us, asked us important questions she needed to know about our dog Teddy, and Teddy came home really tired (which is a very good thing). Thank you so much for taking care of my dog!”


“We had a great experience leaving our 11 month old mastiff with Sam and her family. It was our first time ever having to leave a pet with a non relative and they eased our nerves and lovingly welcomed our dog into their home. We are so appreciative of their love for our big puppy and if the situation arises, we would definitely use Sam’s services again.”


“Nicole and her family are amazing and so accommodating! I know my dog Brooks is in great hands when he stays with them and I will continue to book with them in the future. Very communicative, caring, and loving!”


“My baby boy had a fantastic overnight with Bailee and her fur babies. It's so important that I know Tootie is comfortable and loved in my absence. I watched as Tootie entered the home. He walked around, sniffing. I saw that Tootie was comfortable. Bailee sent pictures and many comical comments. She brought many smiles to my face. Thank you Bailee for loving Tootie.”


“Amber made us feel very comfortable with leaving our dog. She sent us videos and pictures daily with updates to let us know he was doing well. It was evident. If needed, we will definitely book with her again in the future.”


“Amazing boarding experience!!! Erin was wonderful taking on a last minute boarding booking for my girl. She was very attentive to all the details of taking care of my pup and keeping in communication with me before and during my time away. My girl enjoyed snuggles, walks, and meeting Erin’s roommates. I could tell she enjoyed her stay from the photo updates. Whether your pup has a lot of specifics for their care or you just need someone reliable and dependable, Erin is wonderful! Definitely will be booking again in the future. Thank you again Erin!”
