“Nestor did great with Nala. We went out of town for a Valentine’s Day ghetto for the weekend and he was able to watch her on such a late notice for us! I love that he sent us pictures and videos of her, giving us updates on our pup. Definitely helped ease nerves being we’ve never left her in anyone else’s care. Definitely will book with Nestor again !”

“So happy we found such a wonderful sitter for our 2 babies! We were nervous the 1st night since they had never been boarded before, but Emmeline provided lots of updates that helped reassure me they were in great hands. We booked a 2nd stay as we were going out of town for a wedding, and the girls really seem to be loving it there. She kept them fed on time, lots of pets/cuddles and play time with regular walks. Thanks again Emmeline!! The girls are looking forward to seeing you again soon!”

“Kaylee & Kerry are both amazing dog-lover people❤️we are so blessed to find them to take care of Zelda while we were in Cabo Mexico. Kaylee & Kerry always send me updates of Zelda’s daily activities, their walks & her getting comfortable in their couch. How I love this Rover & we are so thankful of their hospitality. They even sent Zelda a goodbye card & a toy gift when she was picked up by my sister in law. I would definitely recommend them, they’re the best & will be getting their help again in the future. Thank you so much Kerry & Kaylee🥰”

11. Margerita S.

“We recently hired Margerita to take care of our fur baby while we were away. We couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Margerita was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring towards our pet. She always updated us with pictures and videos whenever I asked her. It was very easy to communicate with her throughout the time she had our pet. It was really sweet of her to pack some treats in the bag when we picked him up. I can totally see that my pet was missing his two friends he made while living with her. I will definitely recommend her and will hire in future if needed.”

“I was nervous to leave my kitty but Nadine was very nice and even sent an update picture without having to be asked! Will definitely be using her again if I need boarding.”

“Celeste is a wonderful person and an absolute pet lover. I know that your pets will be well taken care of when they are in her care. She has dog sat for me a couple times while we are out of town and my doggies are always happy to stay with her. I definitely recommend!”
15. Sylvia C.

“I had Sylvia board my deaf and blind 5 month old corgi for 9 days and she was amazing. He is still not fully vaccinated so he had to be kept inside. Which can be tough with a puppy. She gave me a daily updates and was very prompt with any questions I had. Our plane on our way back was delayed and we couldn't pick our puppy up until late and she was very flexible in allowing us to get him later than usual. Our puppy was happy and healthy upon pick up. I can see he received lots of love and attention. Her home was clean and accommodated our puppy very well. She even washed our re-usable pee pads when we picked him up. I would recommend Sylvia in a heart beat to anyone. Thank you so much Sylvia! This was my first time using Rover and our puppies first time away from home and you really made us feel that he was well taken care of.”


16. Mk Z.

“MK was an amazing host for our boy! He was sad to leave when we picked him up from having so much fun with his new friends. HAVING A HUSKY, the air tag was great for piece of mind. We will definitely bring our boy back in the future. Thank you MK”

“Patty was amazing with my puppy Brindle. I knew she was in a safe loving home, and that made leaving her so much easier.”




18. Crystal S.
