âRyan and his wife were wonderful. They have a great home with an incredible back yard for the dogs to play. I appreciate that they are open to a solid meet & greet to start things off and then that they provided pictures and updates throughout the weekend. He was also incredibly flexible with drop off and pick up times. We certainly hope that we'll be able to book Ryan again in the future.â

âWow! Davidâs care for our shih tzu Wesley, communication & just the overall experience was top notch! I was updated regularly & I could tell our dog was getting the best attention & treatment. Weâve only left our dog a few times ever before & we left him for a week with David. It really couldnât have been a better experience for us or Wesley. He was treated like one of their own & we were at ease knowing he was so well taken care of! So grateful!â

âThis was Rueâs second time staying with Joylyn and we only have positive things to say about our experience. Rue felt so much more comfortable this time. You can really see how much Joylyn cares for our dog with her updates and interactions. We plan to continue to use her in the future.â

âBrittany, her kids, and her furbabies took very good care of my furbaby. She communicated very well and in my eyes is a super-mom. Thank you for your care of my Kassi.â

âI think Rudy had more fun on his âvacationâ than we did! Tom, Tolley, and the kids took such wonderful care of him during his stay! We loved seeing the updates and photos sent every day. We highly recommend! Thank you again!â

âAlison was amazing as usual! She sent plenty of pictures and updates. My dog is always to happy to go there, her butt wouldn't stop wagging as we walked up to Alison's house! Highly recommend!â

âMichelle was incredible! She took amazing care of my baby and sent me lots of adorable pictures. I highly recommend Michelle! She loved animals and will treat your fur baby like itâs her own. :)â

About: Can provide daily exercise. Previously worked at a dog boarding place interacting with different dog breeds and kept the dogs engaged in daily play and exercise. Due to my passion of interacting with dogs taking care of dogs is all that I do. I am fully dedicated to taking exceptional care of your furry pet. I have a fenced yard and 3 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I take care of your pet same away I take care of my own dogs that is why I am also privately insured besides the Rover Guarantee. I like to find out as much as possible about your dog so I can meet all of their needs.
âAmanda, husband and kids were very sweet with Abhi! They got him a toy and made sure he was very safe! She even sent me sweet pics to ensure he was doing well! Thank you!â

âMichele saved my life, I always take my dog ââeverywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.â

âMy chocolate Lab Bruno sprints from my car to her door every time I drop him off there. Needless to say he loves staying with Jenni and her family,and we have the peace of mind knowing he is loved and well taken care of.â

âAmanda was amazing, kept me posted all the time about Loki and send me pictures of him so I could see how he was doing. He was definitely being loved amd spoiled like if he was home with me. Very glad I found her for Loki's care while I was away.â

About: I have had animals in my life since I was six months old and have helped care for them since I can remember. I've been married to my husband for 33 years and we have had cats, dogs, ferrets, and fish that. We are empty nesters so our complete focus is on our dogs and your dogs when they come to join our pack. I just retired so I am home all day everyday except when I have appointments. My husband Dan is also retired. So we have all kinds of time to care for your pet. Meet the team! My name is Ruth and I'm the female human in the house and my Dan is the male human in the house. Then comes Maisy, our 6 year old toy aussiedoodle, followed by her two year old half sister Gertie, our mini aussiedoodle. Maisy is more laid back and she gets along with other laid back dogs preferably. Gertie on the other hand loves all people and all dogs. I will treat your dog like our own under our care. We offer leashed walks in our dog friendly neighborhood, belly rubs, playing fetch and generally chasing each other around in fun. My house is more the dogs home than ours - where they have furniture privileges except the tables. If they are staying the night, they will be allowed to stay in our bed or we can crate as upon preference.
âTracy and Jessica were the best host for our dog, Stumpy! They made him and us feel comfortable during his stay. They took him for adventures during the weekend and sent us pictures and updates. We will definitely use them again to watch Stumpy!â

âMarcie & family excepted my request on short notice. She sent pics. She went above and beyond for me and my pup. Her family treated him like one of their own. And for that, I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much!!!â
