“My Bernese , Bennett, spent a weekend with Nancy and Jeremy , and he absolutely loved it . Not our first or last time staying there ! Good updates and they love him like he’s family .”


“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”


“Our finicky Chesapeake Bay Retriever thoroughly enjoyed her overnight stay. We look forward to having Tom take care of our pet when we next go out of town. He seems to enjoy and understand dogs.”


“Judy is such a sweet lady and took great care of our Trixie! She truly seems to love spending time with the dogs and my pup seemed very happy with her. She texted us daily updates so we knew our dog was doing well. I would definitely have her sit for us again in the future!”


“Carly was great with my 3 and I'm pretty sure my youngest learned some new manners. She was very understanding when one of my dogs got jealous/sad when I was gone. Also, super understanding when I got stuck at an airport for an extra day due to weather and had to keep them longer. She and her family would be a great choice.”



“David has been excellent with our golden retriever! He has watched our dog several times, always sends pictures or videos, has great training advice and treats her wonderfully! We will definitely continue to reach out to David in the future.”


“Maria is a very nice lady and was very accommodating. Great yard for Kyra to roam and run. I will certainly be having Maria watch Kyra the next time I am out of town.”


“My pup has reactivity to some dogs and had never had any exposure to cats. I was nervous to leave him with Ali's dog and 2 cats cats but, my concerns were alleviated by Ali and Walker. They have a seperate, comfortable space for dogs downstairs, Buster (wiener dog) was very sweet to my dog during a meet and greet, and even the cats were accustomed to dogs. I recieved daily updates and my dog came home happy and tired - just what I was hoping for.”


“We left our elderly dog with Derek for a long weekend. Derek did an excellent job of sending pictures and keeping us updated as to how Scooter was doing. We were impressed and will use Derek again in the future!”


“Nicole is honestly the best river. Her and her family love my dog when they watch her, and she is treated like a part of the family. I love getting the picture updates from Nicole and I know my dog is in good hands with her.”

“Maureen was so accommodating with our last minute search for care for our 9 month old puppy. Being our first time leaving Addie overnight, we were somewhat apprehensive. However, Maureen put our mind at ease with listening to our needs and requests, her reassurance, and in providing the care we wanted our puppy to have. The texts throughout the day and pictures of Addie reassured us we made the right decision in choosing Maureen. We will definitely contact her in the future when the need arises.”


“Samantha kept me up to date with how my pups were doing and sent pictures showing they were being snuggled and taken care of! It was my first time using Rover and will use Samantha again 100%!”


“We had great experience using Angel and Brenda while we went on vacation. They took time to do a meet and greet to ensure my dog got along with theirs. Their dog is super sweet and friendly. My dog loved playing with him. Gave me peace of mind. They also had no problems with raw feeding for my dog. Got updated with pictures and videos. Will definitely use them again in the future.”


“Renee and James took great care of our ten year old Barley. She quickly relaxed and enjoyed snuggling on the coach with them, quick potty trips in their nice large backyard, and walks outside right up angainst elm creek park. Thanks so much!”


“We had a very last minute booking for our puppy and Trudy was more than accommodating. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the day, and even tips about her training. We knew Annie was in good hands and she had a blast- we will be bringing her back again :)”



“Andrea was great! She took many photos and sent them over which was great, we love seeing our little Douglas getting the love he deserves when we are gone! Would recommend Andrea greatly!”
