“Our standard poodle stayed with John and Teri earlier this year while we were gone for a long trip, and then again a second time this weekend. We know he is spoiled and loved and feels right at home both by the photos and updates John and Teri share as well as how our dog acts when we drop him off and pick him up. We are so grateful to know he is having a good time when we are gone! John and Teri are wonderful!”

“Kirsten was so patient with me...she cared for my senior dog over a long holiday weekend, with storms. Emma felt safe while spending time in her family and enjoyed the big fenced yard. Emma was allowed to sleep in the bedrooms at night. Kirsten sent pictures daily so I cld be reassured Emma was doing well. I wld highly recommend Kirsten.”
“Our puppy was showered with love and received personalized care while we were away for a long weekend. We received regular updates, and Sarah was very flexible with our requests. They love dogs. We felt safe leaving our puppy with them. Great family.”

“Serah was an amazing person to have as our little Lita’s foster momma while we had an extended vacation. She kept us in the loop with texts and pictures. It was so reassuring to have our pup taken care of and loved as her own. Lita loved the fenced in yard and having Riley, Serah’s dog, as her playmate. We highly recommend Serah. We will definitely choose her again as our first choice in dog sitters.”

“We loved having Jazmine and Mary care for our precious 13 year old Shih-Tzu named Lila! All of our instructions were followed perfectly. And we were sent photos and updates daily, which we really appreciated! If you want your dog to receive amazing care and love, give Jazmine and Mary a try. You will be glad you did!! Jim and LeeAnn, Alma, WI.”

“Caleb was great! Our "little" Annie had a lot of excitement and attention while with Caleb. The socializing opportunities were helpful and we enjoyed the regular updates and pictures. Caleb was very inviting and was willing to help with administering some last minute medication. Picked up Annie after 2 weeks and she was happy and healthy, couldn't ask for more. We'll definitely be using Caleb again.”

“Tasha and her sweet family were absolutely wonderful. She is responsive, flexible and genuinely cared about our pups. They took excellent care of them, sent pics and updates and loved on them as if they were their own pets. Bring able to travel without worrying about our furbabies was amazing. We can't say enough positive things about our experience! Thank you Tasha!”

“Michelle was amazing for our dog! This was his first stay away from us and to say we were nervous is an understatement. Michelle made sure Maverick was loved the whole time and made sure to update me with plenty of pics and videos. They really made Maverick apart of their family for the week! We couldn’t be more grateful and will definitely book again!”

“Elyse and her family took amazing care of our 11 year old dog! She provided a lot of update too! This was our first experience with Rover and we picked the best! We will definitely book with Elyse again! Thank you!!”


“We've been coming to Mike for years now. We feel that our dog is in good hands. Mike is flexible on pick ups and drop offs, good communicator and provides pictures during the stay which is always appreciated. I highly recommend Mike.”

“Carman was a delight and we felt very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her. She sent pictures and took them outside to play and they seemed very comfortable and at ease when we picked them up. Carman stayed up late for us to pick them up at 11pm which we also greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Carman, and will definitely ask her to take care of our pups in the future.”

“Landon was great! Very communicative, very kind and friendly, and flexible. My dog Sadie came back happy and healthy! I felt very comfortable leaving Sadie with them while we had a trip away, and we will definitely use them again in the future!”

“Ranger gets the best possible personalized care with Tracy. Walks, playtime, and lots of love! I get more pictures and videos than I expect. (I don’t get any from the group daycares I sometimes use.) Tracy supports any training or behavior improvement efforts that we’re working on. She is very knowledgeable and capable. We enjoyed our vacation with no guilt! Ranger loves staying with Tracy!”

“Trudy, her family and their doodle were great hosts for my dog. They are calm and attentive, and they included my dog in their activities. I appreciated receiving daily photos -- I could see that my dog was content. Would definitely use again. Thank you!”

“Got frequent updates and our pup seemed to love the environment! Monika was very welcoming and understanding when it came to certain instructions with our dog will definitely go back for future stays:)”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for WALL-E! From the start, they were professional, kind, and highly experienced with dogs. WALL-E warmed up to them right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We received regular updates, photos, and little messages about how he was doing, which we really appreciated. It was obvious he was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable. We came home to a relaxed, happy pup — the best sign of all! We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

“Amanda accepted my dog on a short notice and took very good care of him. Sent me photos and updates which was great. My dog gets very nervous when I'm away but he quickly got comfortable with her, she has excellent patience. 100% recommend.”

Dropping off my pup with John & Teri felt like leaving him with family. They are incredibly kind, and geniunely care for and love your dog like their own. It helps that they speak doodle, too. The one caution is if you leave your dog there for too many days, they might end up not wanting to come back home. If you have a doodle and need a sitter, you’re doing your dog a disservice if you choose anyone else! 11/10 recommend.

Brittani and her family took very good care of our dog on short notice. In the pictures they sent, our dog looked very happy playing with their dog and when I picked our dog up, he was happy and tired from a lot of playtime. I’d definitely recommend Brittny and her kind family to care for your pet!

Suzy is Amazing! My dog has only stayed with family prior to this stay- needless to say- I was nervous. Suzy immediately set me and my pup at ease. She is a wonderful communicator and kept us updated with texts and pictures. The experience we had with Suzy far exceeded our expectations- thank you Suzy for taking such good care of our girl!

Katie was amazing with our dog Polly while we went away on vacation. We did a meet and greet beforehand so Polly was familiar with her pets and we could make sure it was a good fit. Once it was time to drop her off she couldn’t wait to be back there! Katie sent frequent updates and we had no worries at all while away. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will absolutely use her again in the future!
