12. Lucky B.
“I am beyond thankful that I found Lucky to board our two rescue pups with. I was very anxious over having to find someone whom I could trust. I looked at boarding facilities and other pet sitting services, but nothing felt right. I found Lucky after actually reaching out to two other pet sitters who were not a good fit. Lucky and Matt were the answer to my prayers. They both love dogs and are the nicest humans. I felt at ease at our meet and greet and saw how gentle and relaxed their demeanors were, which made my dogs relaxed. I am very choosey over my dogs and I would wholeheartedly recommend Lucky as a pet caretaker. She is professional, courteous and communicates extremely well. Lucky and Matt are also very patient and nurturing with dogs and our pups took to them immediately. We got daily updates and pics which made me see how well my dogs were doing, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation. Both of our girls loved the “doggie B&B” and were tired, happy and clean when we picked them up. I know they enjoyed their pupcation as much as we enjoyed our vacation. Thank you Lucky and Matt for loving our dogs as your own. They will definitely be back:)”
13. Emily B.
“Emily was great with my dog, Juniper! She sent pictures and updates everyday and was willing to work with my unique drop off and pick up situations. I am so glad that I found Emily and will be using her services in the future! Thank you so much, Emily!”
14. Chaucy W.
“Chauncy was an amazing sitter!! Diesel had so much fun! I went out of town for a 6 day visit. She sent alot of pictures and even let me call and talk to him! She absolutely treated him like one of the family, I will definitely use her again!”
15. Connor M.
“Chewy came home happy, healthy, and tired. Connor was really accommodating to our schedule changes and even made sure Chewy was walked right before I picked him up! I really appreciate it!”
16. Cyndi M.
“We had a wonderful experience with Cyndi! I received pics/updates in morning and evenings and Brutus was just as spoiled at her house as he is ours! We would definitely have him stay with her again! We had zero worries as we knew he was in excellent care!”
17. Jonathan P.
“I’m so happy to have found Jonathan on Rover! He is accommodating and sends updates on how my dog is doing (along with pics and videos!) He always responds in a timely manner and makes pick up/drop off a breeze. Would definitely recommend!”

20. Dawn B.
“Dawn was great! My dog loved playing with her dog, and she was perfectly calm when I picked her up.
