Lauren came to the rescue for a last minute trip! This was our first time using Rover and she was such a jewel. She sent lots of sweet pictures of our Stormie! He looked happy and it was such an ease to drop him off and pick him up! I highly recommend Lauren!

Alice has done a great job taking care of my two pups. She was caring and provided us with timely updates, photos, and videos. My wife and I were able to enjoy our time knowing our pups were in good hands. Our dogs seemed happy going for walks and playtime with Alice. I highly recommend her — definitely five stars!

Cathy is the absolute best Rover we have ever used! She sent us frequent updates with pictures, went above and beyond to provide the best care, was extremely flexible with drop-off/pick-up & treated Olivia like she was her own! Couldn’t recommend her more!

Amy & John took such good care of our two dogs, boarding them for nearly a week while we traveled. I was so appreciative and relieved they would consider us, as our young dog, River, is always curious and has a pretty strong prey drive. I wondered if he would be suited to life on their farm. Our other guy, Colton, is 15 and has significant arthritis. These two could not have more different needs at this point. Amy and John have a beautiful farm, two special rescued dogs, Bruno & Pork Chop, cattle, chickens, even emu. This would be a new experience for both our guys! Generally we spend a great deal of time with them off leash walking our family farms, but this would be a new property and boundaries without fencing. At our meet and greet it was clear Amy and John are special people. We admired them right away! They are very experienced, and were aptly methodical about the introduction of all the dogs and their other farm animals. Their confidence that this could work for all parties involved was reassuring. Amy and John went above and beyond, very kind to take our dogs a day earlier than planned with short notice, and welcomed our daughter, also new to them, who transported the dogs for us. They were excellent at communicating, sending us updates, pictures, and videos, even though we’d told them this was not necessary, as keeping up with River, his energy and curiosities, we knew could be a full time job in and of itself. But it gave us great peace of mind hearing early on that all was going well and there were no issues. Because of Amy & John’s care, patience, and diligence, after a full day with them we received the following, “..Bruno and River have become fast friends, running circles and playing hide and seek in the woods like wild things! We’re not using the leashes at all as we walk in the woods. River’s been absolutely perfect about coming back when we call him.” And I got the biggest kick out of, “I just got back from a walk with all four dogs, Pork Chop and Colton waddling behind me and River and Bruno having a blast playing chase.” Along with a picture Amy sent of River with his head poking through from behind her knees (as crazy as it sounds), something he humors only us with here at home, we KNEW both our guys felt comfortable, were happy and very much cared for. I could not imagine a more perfect scenario for our dogs. Now back at home, we can definitely sense they are missing Amy, John, Bruno, Pork Chop, and daily life on their farm. I’d love to arrange a play date to help with this, and I KNOW precisely what River and Colton’s reactions will be once we approach their farm. It’s clear this is a family that loves animals and cares so much for the well-being of all they have rescued and assumed responsibility for. They are kind, exceptional, hard-working individuals, and we feel so fortunate to have met them and to have our dogs cared for by them. This is who we will turn to any time we need care and boarding for our dogs!

Alexis, her husband and Bane (their pup) made OB stay amazing. I got pictures and Updates every day and he was having such an amazing time. They spent so much time and focus on him and he had a wonderful time with his doggy play friend. I definitely recommend booking them to watch your beloved pet.

Definitely helped me to relax knowing that Figaro was being well taken care of while I was away. Will use their services again without hesitation.

Kenan was quick to respond and easy to coordinate with! This was our first time leaving our English Shepherd , Sam, with a dog sitter and we couldn’t have had a better experience. We were able to take Sam to Kenan’s so he could get familiar with the area before his stay. Lots of room for dogs to run around and play. We also received several photos and updates while we were traveling, which gave us a peace of mind. Thank you so much Kenan for taking such good care of Sam. We will be back!

I boarded my puppy here when I was moving. It was such a great set up. Luffy loved the fresh air and getting to meet so many new friends. He practically didn’t want to go home. I can’t wait for him to get the chance to stay again!

Lauren was awesome. She was incredibly friendly and made both me and my dog feel comfortable right away. Her large yard was a huge plus—my dog absolutely loved having so much space to run around and play. Communication was excellent from start to finish. Lauren kept me updated with messages and sent plenty of pictures, which really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. It meant a lot knowing my dog was not only safe, but also happy and enjoying himself in a new environment. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter!

Lauren watched my dog Zoe for nine days. She was wonderful with Zoe. She took time to do a meet and greet before I left for vacation. It gave Zoe and myself time to meet Lauren and see where she would be staying while I was away. She sent me pictures and videos of Zoe every day. Zoe had so much fun with Lauren. She had a huge yard to play and run around in and she loved playing with the other dogs that were also staying with Lauren. Lauren had cones and tunnels out one day for Zoe to run around in and through! I was able to go on vacation and know that Zoe was being well taken care of. Lauren is great with communication, both before and during Zoe's stay. If I contacted Lauren, she answered quickly. I would definitely recommend Lauren to watch your pets while away. I am definitely going to use her again for Zoe.
