“I can't say enough about how wonderful Mark and Vicky were with our pups. Every day of our vacation we received pics And updates on how they were doing. Even giving extra attention two some medical issues that my one pup has. These people are very nice and genuinely care about dogs. I would definitely use them again. I can also easily see that my dogs really liked them. That was important to me And comforting to me while we were away. Thank you so much Mark and Vicky, you guys are awesome!”

“Nancy did a great job taking care of our dog for a week. She updated us with pictures & texts throughout his stay. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands.. highly recommend and would use Nancy for future trips.”

“Miranda was great! We had her watch our 10 yr old lab retriever mix for three nights. Things went well and we will definitely be contacting her in the future for more dog-sitting! Thanks again!”

“My very first time time ever using this type of boarding with our new pup of 8 months old. Lacey the mini golden was well cared for. I appreciated the communication and fun pics received showing us how she was doing. Thank you!!”

“My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!”

“Kaylee knows what she is doing! Monitored and controlled introduction to other dogs to see if they get along. She got our dog, Junior, to sleep in the crate at night (not sure how)!”


“Mark and Elizabeth took excellent care of my baby boy Quincy!🐾. They were very good about giving me daily pictures and updates on how he was doing. Since they limit the number of pets that they board they were very attentive to whether he was eating, drinking water, sleeping well, napping a lot 😊. He loved going on walks with them. I knew he was in good hands when I dropped him off and he didn’t try to follow me out the door like he normally does. I highly recommend them if they are available.”
“Our pups had amazing time! Makenzie was so helpful through our experience and loved the pups up. We were impressed by her quick communication and willingness to send pics and updates. Can’t wait to book again!”

“We have been booking with Heather for our 5 animals for years now. Heather and her husband watch our 4 dogs and cat once a year for our vacation. I schedule my vacations around them now because I don’t trust anyone else with my kids. I love that they always send daily updates with pictures and let me know any concerns they have (my one dog is getting old and stiff. Heather’s husband told me that he was bumping into things and might be developing some eyesight issues). They are very attentive. One year my cat and one dog got into a tiff (as they do sometimes) and Heather immediately contacted me and told me about it and told me she separated them to cool down. I have a very nervous rescue that does not like anyone but I get pictures of her laying with Heather and her husband. I have only ever seen this dog hug my husband or I in the 3 years we have had her but she hugs them. This tells me all I need to know since Ivy doesn’t trust anyone. My dogs seem to feel comfortable when I leave them there and not panicked. My cat and older dog take medicine daily and Heather gets my stubborn cat to take her medicine with no problem. Your pets are safe with them.”

“We had our 2 puppies stay with Zachary and it was absolutely wonderful! They were playing and looked so happy the moment they got into his backyard. Will absolutely book with him again and highly recommend his services!”

“My experience with Jenna and Nathan exceeded my expectations more than I can say. I have a rescue dog who is very shy. I have never left her anywhere and did not know what to expect. I had lots of anxiety about leaving her. But, they were so good with her. Their children were so attentive to her. They are genuinely very nice, caring people. They have a large fenced in backyard and their house is so perfect for the dogs comfort. . They really take their job serious. They walked Maddie. They took her for rides in the car. They played with her and the other dogs outside. They treated her like she was a member of their family. Sent at least two videos a day with comments that kept me informed about how she was adjusting. Towards the end of the week I was afraid Maddie would not even want to go home with us. I highly recommend Nathan and Jenna. I feel like I can actually go away for a couple days at a time now as long as they are able to babysit my sweet pup. Another wonderful thing about them is that one of them is home at all times. At least they were able to do that the week we were gone.”

“Sydney and her boyfriend completely spoiled my dog with attention during his stay! I loved receiving all of the pictures and updates, he looked like he was right at home with them. We are so glad we found her and are looking forward to using her again in the future!”

“I felt Savanna took good care of Felipe. He loves everyone and he is a good dog and that showed when he was with Savanna and her family. Yes I would have him stay with her again. He was taken in his morning walks and they shared videos. Nice home and family. Thank you guys”

“Gail took such good care of my girl while we were gone. She gave her her meds every day, took her for walks, gave her lots of attention and sent me pictures and updates daily. Thank you Gail!!”

“Absolutely fantastic! I truly believe my dog went on her own little vacation while we went on ours. Not only did I get several pictures throughout the day along with notes on how my pup was doing, But she was very caring and accommodating for our sweet girl as well. Very easy to get in touch with quick to respond, very reasonably priced A+ +”

“I typically don’t leave reviews, so this is special. Our family has a super sweet dog named Abby, who is everything to us. I’m very protective of her and always super nervous letting her stay with a stranger. I was going to use my first and only other rover sitter but they were already booked up and she wouldn’t be able to stay the whole time. What a relief finding David, he has a very structured approach to introducing his dog which I have never done before. I can’t say enough positives about this experience. He and his family very loving to our girl. I counted no less than 33 pictures he sent throughout the 6 days Abby’s was there. The home is very clean and tidy similar to ours. Overall, I would not hesitate in sending our dog Abby to David in the future. Sorry for the long review, but I’m not good at leaving these.”

“Kelly and her family were absolutely wonderful with my sweet Myka. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my pup was being loved in her home as much as we love her in ours. She lives in a beautiful neighborhood with minimal traffic. Kids and families everywhere was perfect Would ABSOLUTELY use agin!!”

“Kylie was great with our 9 month old puppy Winnie during our wedding weekend! He had never stayed with anyone other than family so we were a little nervous about leaving him but Kylie made sure Winnie felt loved, taken care of, and at home! She took him on multiple walks and had loads of Toys for him to play with. She sent us a bunch of photos to keep us updated during our weekend which kept us at ease! Winnie made himself at home and he even wanted to go back in the car with Kylie when he was dropped off. 😊 We will definitely use Kylie as a trusted sitter again!”

“Fantastic short stay for our large dog. My dog is shy and can sometimes struggle with new environments. We were given the flexibility of a meet and greet, but even without, the numerous photos were reassuring of my dog’s comfortability in Tina and Rick’s home. I am very appreciative of the updates throughout the day and taking the time to go out on walks. Will definitely be a future customer!”
