“Our girls loved staying with Yoki, Derek, and Denali! Yoki kept in touch throughout our trip, sent us regular updates and pictures, and was SUPER flexible when winter weather delayed our return a bit. Highly recommended - and our girls will be back!”
“Kaycee and Robert did a great job with our little puppy Milton. We loved that Milton could play with their kids, run around in the backyard with their dog, and feel at home. He’s a handful and came home happy!”
“Pretzel has a great 2 week stay. Duane& Lauren took great care of him and he has lots of playtime and walks to keep him busy. Their place is warm and cozy even in the cold winter!”
“Joan was very accommodating and sent photos of my babies everyday. They looked super happy and napped very well when they were home. Thanks so much for watching them! :)”
“My mini poodle absolutely LOVES going to Camp Laura! Penny stayed with Laura recently for several days, and Laura took such amazing care of her. Penny got to walk and go to the dog park daily, play with Laura's pets and sleep in comfort each night. I never worry when Penny stays with Laura because Laura is so kind and caring. We will enlist Laura again when we need a safe and happy place for Penny! Thank you, Laura!”
“My pup has now stayed with Bob twice, and both times have demonstrated Bob’s attentiveness and responsiveness. He’s a pleasure to work with, and clearly a wonderful caretaker. Will definitely book again!”
“Emily is the absolute best. She does so well with our dogs and we feel great when they are with her! She sends pictures and updates that let us know our dogs are having so much fun!”
“I could not ask for a better care provider for my Maltese Ollie, who has been cared for by only family members until recently! Hope went above and beyond to ensure that Ollie was comfortable while I was away. She invited Ollie and me to her home before committing to caring for Ollie. She was honest in sharing his daily joys and stressors, which was refreshing! She also provided suggestions to improve Ollie's comfort the next time I am away - too awesome!”
“Amanda and her family were extremely accommodating and took care of my dog like he was their own. It was my first time using the app and I was nervous but she put that at ease with updates and pictures. Would definitely book again!”
“Emily took exceptional care of Finny while I was out of state- he wasn’t feeling well but she cared for him like she would her own dog. He came home happy, healthy, and super tired from playing the entire time! I am a relieved and happy doggie mom. Thank you Emily and family!”
“Maddie was great! She is friendly, responsive, and professional. First time we boarded our pup, and it couldn't have gone better. Ivan got walks and cuddles and we got frequent updates. Would definitely book with Maddie again.”
“Lorelei was the best! She was exactly the Rover experience we were hoping for! She was very responsive, provided daily updates about our dog Willy and even sent photos. We cannot wait for our next stay with her!”
“I was very comfortable leaving my dog Dobby with Cynthia while I was on vacation. Dobby required additional care with his medication, and Cynthia took time to learn his routine to make sure nothing was missed and he’d get attention he needed. I had a very good time on my trip knowing my dog is in good hands! I received daily updates on their whereabouts and very beautiful photos ❤️”
“We needed care for our new dog and Edith was very welcoming. She had us over to do a meet and greet prior to our dog’s first visit which put us at ease. During his visit she gave us updates and photos which helped us know he was doing well and having a good time. She communicates well and has a lovely home that our dog enjoyed going to. We look forward for to using her again.”
“Michelle is amazing! She was so communicative and provided lots of pictures. Good updates and very receptive. She took the time to really listen to my dogs backstory. I knew my dog was being well taken care of and I would absolutely have her watch him again!”
“Scott was so great! Came through and took such good care of Penny when we were in need last minute. She was happy and loved and we received nice updates. Will definitely have him watch Penny again.”
“Al and Hannah were phenomenal! They were very responsive and sent a lot of updates through my dog's stay. It made me feel very comfortable leaving Cas with them, and I absolutely will again if the need arises. Highly recommend!”

Mikaela was so great and super flexible! Estrella was prescribed medications right before her stay and Mikaela handled it like a pro! She also sent updates and photos which was much appreciated. We truly felt like we could trust her and Theo to give Estrella the best care while on vacation, which was a huge relief. We are looking forward to have Estrella stay with them again!

Bekah and Alex were amazing for Paka's 12-day mega-stay! Unfortunately on day #2, Paka did something clumsy in the backyard and had to be taken to the ER vet, but I so appreciated how communicative Bekah was through the entire process and how attentive she was with all of the aftercare. With multiple updates with photos per day, I didn't feel thousands of miles away. Paka still had a great time getting lots of cuddles and time basking on the deck. I would recommend them and book them again myself!
Kara was amazing with our puppy, Marty! We had a last minute change shortly before our trip and needed to find someone to care for our puppy. Kara was able to care for Marty and he did great in her home! She handled his puppy related behaviors without issue. Kara communicated with us throughout the week and sent us regular updates. We will gladly send Marty to stay with Kara again in the future!
Nicole was wonderful. She was able to accommodate a last day request for our family and we were very appreciative. It was also clear that she loves animals immediately. She also took great care of our boy and went way beyond with walks and care. Highly recommend!
