“Caillynn was awesome. My Lila had such a fun time playing and running in their large yard. I got pictures and/or video updates daily and responses were fast when I asked questions. Will definitely want to bring my baby there next time!”


“I think the best review comes from our dog, Sirius. When we get to their house he runs to the front door, dragging us behind. Alexis and Daniel have the Sirius seal of approval! We're also happy because we know he's being well taken care of while we're away.”


“We had a wonderful experience leaving our 2 dogs with Stevin. He gave us frequent updates with pictures and it helped us relax during our trip. He was super responsive to questions I had prior to the boarding and asked me questions while the dogs were there. We will absolutely leave our dogs with Stevin again, and we highly recommend him!”


“Sandra was great with communication and pics of Lola during her stay! She made me feel very comfortable leaving for my trip and I knew my pup was in good hands. Highly recommend!”


“Here's your final review with a few minor tweaks for clarity and flow: --- This is my first time using a boarding service through Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! I recently boarded my dog with her, and she was incredibly friendly, ensuring my dog felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. Her house had plenty of space for play, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy boarding service. Thank you for taking such great care of Harry!”


“Brittany did a great job with my two pups. Was accommodating with pickup and drop off. Kept up with their different feeding/medication schedules and they came back happy and healthy! Her dog Henri is great as well. Would definitely book with her again!”


“Stacey took great care of Buddy while I was on vacation. She sent me the most adorable pictures of him playing and sleeping at her house. She asked a lot of questions about Buddy before watching him to help her understand him. 10/10 highly recommend Stacey!”


“Zoe was fantastic. She was very flexible and wonderful to work with. The house was wonderful with a fenced in backyard. My dog Arlo had a wonderful time there. I would gladly go with Zoe again.”


“Kos was wonderful to Oreo, Pearl, and Odie! He checked in daily and sent tons of pics to reassure us that they were doing great and being well taken care of which I very much appreciated. We would love to use him again in the future for our fur babies!”


“We had a five star experience with Mary this past weekend. Traveling with our two chiuauhas has always been challenging. Kennel boarding seems cold and we don't have family nearby to help out. We have tried the Rover meet and greet before but without success. However, once we introduced our kids to Mary everything changed. Mary and her husband Bob are kind hearted dog lovers and it was obvious to our dogs. They were relaxed and happy as if they had met her before. While the kids were in her care she texted us with photos and updates daily. Bob actually reinforced the low areas of their fence prior to our stay so our five pound escape artist would be secure! Their house is dog friendly also. We have booked a longer stay later this year. I can highly recommend Mary with full confidence that you will have a great experience too!”


“Not only is Sarah a true "dog mom" but she is a wonderful person. She is so enjoyable to interact with at drop off and pick up. She updated often and treated our girl with much love and special treatment. She thought of everything that our dog would need and I'm sure she hardly missed us! We are so thankful that we have found Sarah (and her sweet doggies!).”


About: While I have cared for a number of my own pets over the years, I also held down a career as a veterinary technician. With this experience, I not only gained medical knowledge, but also gained experience in pet handling, behavior management, and responsive training. I currently work a full time position with open remote capabilities. I work five minutes from my home and can easily make regular trips to the house to provide extra outdoor breaks to any pet. I also am very active with my own lovable hound dog. We take regular evening walks and spend every morning basking in the sun in our fenced in backyard. I care for every pet like they are my own. I respect every pet parents wishes on the care and safety of their pet but will also allow them to have the freedom and comfort that they would have in their own homes. We live in a child free home with a fully fenced in back yard in a quiet suburban neighborhood that offers a peaceful and safe place to live and play.

“Shannon was a terrific caregiver for my dog Dexter. She has kept him several times now and I'm very happy. Dexter is also happy. He gets to play outside and gets to come inside and lounge on the couch. Who could want more?”


“Maisey did great with Keturah. It was our first time leaving her with someone besides family, and she did fantastic. We got a mid week update and learned that she was living large and had new friends. It really put me at ease. Overall, great experience.”
