“Joanne is amazing to our baby girl, she noticed when our pup wasn’t feeling the best and let us know promptly. She also kept an eye on her and kept us up to date. Our furbaby is always very excited to go to Joanne’s house :)”
4. Erich & May D.
“Erich and May took excellent care of our dog Meadow during her stay! We received updates and photos during the day. She had a wonderful time and we didn't feel guilty to leave her during our time away. They are so caring and kind gave Meadow plenty of affection and play time. We are so pleased our dog was able to be with them.”
5. Catherine P.
“Thank goodness we found Catherine! I never thought I'd be able to leave my baby with ANYONE, & panicked until we met her. She was wonderful, put us (both) completely at ease, with numerous pics & updates. My husband is so relieved we'll actually be able to go on other vacations! The absolute greatest with separation anxiety! (and my Rocky had a blast!)”
6. Daniel S.
“Dan and Denise are AWESOME!! I had a family emergency during the coronavirus crisis and had to find a sitter for my brother's six year old pitbull, Blue, ASAP. I went on Rover.com and sent an email to Dan at 3:00 A.M. asking if he could take care of Blue for us, not just for a few days but almost a month! To my surprise, Dan answered me immediately! We arranged for a "greet and meet" the next day and fortunately Dan and Denise were able to take Blue in that very same day. I was so afraid Blue was going to have separation anxiety and be distressed since he has always been with my brother - that fear quickly subsided with Dan and Denise reassuring me he would be well looked after and they had taken care of many, many dogs, including pitties. Well, Blue was one SPOILED pup during his stay! Dan and Denise have a beautiful home, a large fenced in yard for their doggie guests to play in and the T.L.C. is first class! Each day, I would receive a text update and either a video or picture from Denise and Dan showing Blue running in the yard, snoozing in bed, hanging out in the living room or laying next to Denise in her office. I was able to go see Blue several times during his extended stay and he was always content and happy! I cannot thank Dan and Denise enough for their kindness to Blue and our family during this difficult time and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them !!”
7. Jamie G.
“Jamie is a great pet sitter that took excellent care of our active boxer! She was warm and friendly, and quick with communication. She even sent us pictures and videos. Our pup came home happy and relaxed.”
8. Gabby G.
“Gabby G. Was absolutely the best! She was able to care for my dog at a last minute request. She was very patient with him as it was his first time away from home - but nonetheless, he loved it there with her ! Thank you once again Gabby - you are a life saver 😊”
9. Trinity C.
“Trinity was outstanding in every way. Trinity calmed my fears both before and during the drop-off because I was anxious about leaving my fur-baby with a new person. She also gave useful advice that was fantastic. I'm looking forward to making future travel reservations with Trinity.”
10. Allee D.
“Allee watched my dog Ghost for about 10 days and it was a great experience. Ghost had a great time with Allee and her family. Allee kept me updated while I was away and sent pictures of Ghost so that I could see how he was doing. I would highly recommend Allee for anyone in need of dog boarding!”
11. Hannah S.
“Hannah was AMAZING! This was my first time bringing my dog to a sitter and she kept her for 5 nights while I went away! She made me feel very safe and comfortable by updating me, sending me countless pictures & videos of them playing and on walks, all while answering so quickly. Next trip I take I will definitely bring my dog back to her & I highly recommend you do the same! :)”
12. Vanessa M.
“Vanessa was wonderful. Sent me lots of pictures and took great care of my Ducky girl. We've already set up another puppy sitting weekend with her next month.”
13. Denise I.
“Truly exceptional care. Denise was very friendly. I picked up the dogs they were energetic and happy. Some minor changes to our vacation schedule were accommodated without issue. Highly recommended !!!!”
14. Erin T.
“Erin is the best!!! Our dogs Nala and Gary had SO much fun spending the day with her. Besides all the snuggles, she even took them on walks and kept us updated with lots of pictures. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with Erin again!”

“Rocko had a great time with Alejandro and even made new friends. Alejandro sent me videos every day of Rocko playing with his new friends. I highly recommend Alejandro and will definitely use him in the future.”

17. Paula & James W.
“Paula was incredible with our pup! She watched our girl while my husband and I got married. Knowing Winnie was with Paul relieved so much stress. She sent us photos and updates! We couldn't have asked for anything better!”
18. Alev G.
“Alev is wonderful! Susie is so comfortable in her home and very loved. Alev keeps us updated with daily photos and even treated her to a “pup cup” at Starbucks! Alev is a kind, soft spoken woman who makes us feel so very comfortable when traveling. Thanks Alev! 👍😘”
19. Amber Z.
“Amber was very flexible with a last minute booking, late night dropoff and extending the stay free of charge so we could do a more convenient pickup the following morning. Winnie was well taken care of certainly seemed like she enjoyed her stay. Will be booking again!”
