8. Lisa S.

“Lisa was great! She watched our two dogs and little farm while we were out of town and was very communicative, friendly and our dogs loved her company. They got to go on walks and lots of attention that they normally do not get when at the boarding facility- this was so much better than that for them. We would recommend and plan to request her in the future!”

She would be an incredible caregiver to any animal that comes her way. Thank you.”

14. Jessica H.
“Jessica has grown up with dogs since she was a baby. She is the biggest animal lover and just likes to play. I always joke with Jessica and tell her she has the zoomies just like her furry friends. She matches a puppy's energy. You would be so lucky to have Jessica as your Rover!”
