“Marill was wonderful! She took our Draco at the last minute. He felt so at home with her and in her care. We were abled to go on vacation with no worries. She sent pictures/videos and was very open about what was happening at all times. She really took an interest in what was comfortable for Draco and how she could make his stay as pleasant as possible! We even ended up extended our stay a few hours and she was very flexible. This was our first time using Rover and it was a wonderful experience! We will absolutely use Marill again in the future!!”


8. Morgan & Jennifer H.

“These two women are earth angels. I had to go to Florida to close on a house I had inherited and my 14 y/o Cavalier spaniel was having some medical issues and needing a lot of and patience. Jennifer and Morgan were beyond excellent - took care of Maddie for 5 days and sent pictures and videos to us to update us on her condition. She just arrived back home now and our gratitude is beyond words for the care and love Maddie had with them. I recommend them highly and will always call them first for any future dog care needs. You won't be disappointed if you use their services - I'm certain of that.”


9. Carrie K.

“Teddy was well loved while he was at their house. Miya, the beautiful furry friend, let Teddy into her home, shared her bed, walked with Teddy (many times a day) and even shared her humans!💕 With the continuous conversations and photos with Carrie, I knew how Teddy responded to a new home and how welcomed he felt in the 6 night stay. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone that needed their high energy, medium anxiety, and well loved dog taken care of for a few hours or a few days. Did I mention our English Setter likes a human to be next to him while he eats??? Thanks Mark, Carrie and Miya!”


10. Kami S.

“Kami was amazing and the location is perfect! We had never boarded our 3 dogs and was a little nervous about the whole thing but after seeing the location and meeting Kami and her crew I was quickly put to ease. Lots of pics and communication over the 4 days and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Highly recommend!!”


11. Mary H.

Our dogs were given so much attention from the entire family which is so appreciated to know that they were in good hands. We would definitely recommend them because they have good hearts for dogs and a great home environment and neighborhood for dogs to be around. Thank you so much for your help!”

18. Brenna T.

“Brenna was super confident about taking care of my slow to warm up dog and I felt very reassured that he would be in good hands. She was patient with him and helped him eat which he can be hesitant to do, and send lots of pictures of him lounging at her house. He was very relaxed when I picked him up! Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”
