“Valerie is a TOP LEVEL pet sitter!!!! She far exceeds my expectations and I am thrilled that she is my regular sitter as I travel extensively for work. She is flexible with last minute bookings, drop off and pick up changes. She takes remarkable care of my senior dog with medical needs and provides enrichment activities for him. Frequent walks, snuggles, trips to the store for treats and car rides are his favorites with Valerie. My sweet Hershey looks happy in his frequent photos! I love the frequent updates and excellent communication about how he is doing. Valerie has a passion for animals and truly enjoys what she does!!!! A++++++++++++”


“Kathy was absolutely amazing! She sent me lots of photos while I was away from my pup. They took lots of walks and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Her dog Lady became good friends with my pup which is always awesome to see. I will definitely be coming back for her services!!”

“BJ and Kaitlin kept my 2 Dobermans; 1 who is extremely energetic and they were great, they communicated with me often a long the way and were able to cater to the two different energy levels of my Dobermans. Highly recommend! Thanks again!”


“Jessica was understanding and patient with our 1st time few day stay with someone outside of immediate family. Jessica provided daily updates, picture, and videos during her stay. It was nice to see the dog being given attention to her anxiety and thru her stay. I was pleased with the amount of communication from the first meet and greet through pick up. I would recommend anyone in the area who is looking to have their dog boarded overnight to book with Jessica.”

“My pups stayed with Ashley & Ryan for a week in June. It was the pups first time away from me. They were “mom sick” as expected but well cared for. I would definitely board with Ashley & Ryan again.”

“Erin did a great job taking care of my two cats for 10 days while we went on vacation. I got daily photos and updates. She listened carefully to my needs and concerns and we had a video call so I could feel comfortable leaving my kitties with her. She was even able to give my cats their medicine before they got in the car to go home and accommodated a time/day change when I wanted to pick them up a day early. Erin is great and I hope I can book with her again. Thank you!!”


“I needed someone last minute and was super stressed about leaving my pup for the first time but Victoria took such great care of Lola I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was in good hands! Can’t thank you enough!!”

“Breanna was absolutely lovely! Zinnia had gotten sick on the way to their home and Breanna was still okay with watching over her! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone, sent lots of pictures, and followed my instructions to a tee (including the extra ones I added last minute to help Zinnia feel better)! Zinnia got used to her very quick and had a wonderful time playing, lounging, and going for walks together!”

“She was amazing with my babies. Constantly updating me on them, and loving them like her own. She went above and beyond with taking care of them and making sure my girl didn’t loose her lamby even repairing lamby for us.”

“Ronald and his partner took excellent care of Finley, provided periodic updates and pictures, and Finley was in great spirits when I picked him up.”

“Gary is the best!! He always takes the best care of our senior pug Yoda when we go away. We know that Yoda is in the best hands when we leave him with Gary. Gary is very compassionate and caring, we highly recommend him as always. He will treat your furbaby as his own.”

“Patty was fabulous. She picked Tilly up and returned her to my location. I was working out of my home town. Tilly was a happy girl when she came back. She got to play with Patty's little dogs. I would use her again w/o hesitation.”

Brittany is such a blessing! I don't have to worry when leaving Sadie because I know that Brittany will take great care of her! She gives her lots of love, attention and belly rubs! She provides detailed daily updates with several photos to let me know how she is doing. Sadie seems to have lots of fun and is happy after being there. Brittany is an awesome sitter! Highly recommend!!!

Sharon took FANTASTIC care of Izzy. From the meet and greet, to dropoff, pickup, and all the time in between, everything was well communicated. She made sure she had all the bases covered and asked all the right questions. While we were out, she sent plenty of pictures and video of our little sweetheart and made sure we knew just how much she was being loved on while we were away. This was our first time on Rover, but I think we've hit a goldmine of a sitter. We will 100% be taking Izzy back to see auntie Sharon!

Gary has watched our dog Mojo several times. He's very comfortable when we leave him and is always very happy coming home. Gary is very receptive to any instructions needed and lets us know how Mojo is doing. We highly recommend Gary. Thanks, Gary, for watching Mojo!! :)
