“I had a last minute booking need come up and I’m so glad I did so I could meet Elisabeth! Elisabeth was so wonderful and caring to my dog. I was really excited to see she has other small dogs, and Louise had a blast running around with her crew. Elisabeth was incredibly caring, she sent really thorough updates and made Louise feel right at home after I left. I felt so at ease knowing my sensitive little dog was so well cared for and had some friends to play with. I would absolutely bring Louise back and highly recommend Elisabeth!”
“Our pup is a sensitive, nervous guy. Marna made sure he felt loved and at home. I could tell he was having fun with her family through the photos she sent. She filled us in each day and sent photos. 🤩 Will definitely use Marna again!”
“Austin and Francis were amazing! We boarded our yellow lab with them for two nights over the Fourth of July holiday weekend and we couldn’t have asked for a better home for our dog Rocky! The family took him on long walks, made home made dog treats and gave him so much love! They are by far the best find on Rover...Rocky will definitely be coming back to visit them!”
“Janice was wonderful. She accommodated us when we needed to make changes to our booking. She sent pictures and let us know how Sophia was doing. Sophia took to Janice immediately. She was exceptional in every way. We highly recommend her services.”
“Vicky was a great sitter for my pup, Rhody! Rhody is super shy and can be anxious but Vicky made her comfortable right from the start. I loved all the picture updates and would definitely use Vicky again!”
“We always go with Molly when we are heading out of town! She is quick to respond, super responsible, and truly does a wonderful job taking care of our dog. He is always happy to get there! Her own dogs are super cute and pleasant to be around. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Absolutely phenomenal experience. First time boarding our Australian cattle dog/mix with his Labrador sister and they had a blast! Highly recommend Jaclyn’s family for your pups!”
“Kyle and Kaleigh have the perfect set up to watch our dog. We were completely comfortable leaving our pup with them and they were awesome about sending us pictures and communicating on how our dog was doing”
“Overall, our dog did well at Heidi’s house because he loves to be a pack animal and wishes he were at the dog park 24/7. This is not the place to go if your dog gets overwhelmed by other dogs. Although Heidi I was nervous when dropping Benny off at Heidi’s because about 30 dogs were staying at her house and it seemed very hectic upon arrival. I thought there were going to be way less dogs, and assumed from her profile photos that she had more of a kennel set up in her house. However, all went well and Benny came back safely. I was impressed by Heidi’s ability to keep up with all of the dogs she was watching, while maintaining communication with owners. Benny came back super exhausted and overstimulated, but I was thankful that he had a very active time and was distracted from being homesick. Heidi’s outdoor space for the dogs is huge and looks very secure, so her place would be perfect for the summer.”
“Briana was so wonderful - she helped us out with a last minute boarding need, and she sent daily updates and pictures of our pup. He had a wonderful time at her home, and we would gladly contact Briana for future stays!”
“Christina was so great with our dog! Quick Responses leading up to the time she had our dog and She sent us many updates though out the time she had our dog. She made sure to keep her busy with many adventures while we were away. We are excited to have our pup stay with Christina again when we are away!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog Sprout with Michelle and she had a great time! Michelle was a great communicator and sent us updates the whole time we were away.”
“Wyatt was amazing! Izzy was so well cared for and I enjoyed my vacation exponentially more with lots of updates ensuring she was having fun including an adorable video of them playing together outside! izzy can’t wait to come back!”
“Hemi is NEVER more excited then when we are pulling into Amanda's driveway! Amanda and her family are so sweet and I can tell that Hemi is treated with just as much love as her own.”
“Rachael was amazing with Maizy. Maizy vacationed with her for 8 nights. As promised, we received many pictures and updates daily. She was in tuned to how our girl was feeling and we could see the happiness on Maizy’s face in the pics. Rachel reached out with food questions when needed. We seriously could not have asked for a better vacation for our Maizy girl! Highly recommend Rachael! Hopr the secret doesn’t spread too fast so we can book Rachael again!”
“Amy was great with my two Bernedoodles. I had a lot of anxiety leaving them and she made sure to send lots of pics that made me feel better. She was great at communicating and I would definitely board my dogs with her again.”
“Laney was very accommodating of my two Huskies. I've been looking a long time to find not only a sitter, but one that would take good care of my pups and not be worried about their behavior. Although my boys are somewhat trained and are good with other dogs and kids, not everyone is willing to watch two Huskies! She also showed good care and is knowledgeable of training. I will definitely coming back!”
