1. Angel C.

“Angel is wonderful and I would definitely recommend her! She provided half a day of care for our fur baby while we were at the Ark Encounter. It was a last moment request for our spur of the moment plans — she responded quickly and professionally. She was available and willing even though it was for the next day/Saturday morning. Being within a 30 minute drive from The Ark Encounter was a huge bonus for us. We arrived with our 6 lb., 6 year old Yorkie and she showed immediate comfort being around Angel and her young child. We asked that children not have unsupervised time alone with our fur baby as she is small, delicate and can express anxiety — Angel assured us she would be careful, give our pup her own bedroom with the door closed for quiet time, and take her for walks herself. She checked in with us during the stay, and when we arrived to pick up, our fur baby was calm, not expressing any anxiety and was well cared for (we do raw feeding and Angel had no issue keeping the container of food nuggets refrigerated and feeding at the correct time). Angel was very welcoming and made me feel comfortable leaving our fur baby in her care. I would highly recommend her. 5 +stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


2. Ruth I.


“Ruth is by far the best dog sitter that dog parents could have. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to her. Our dog even gave her goodbye kisses. Thanks Ruth.”




3. Hailey K.


“My dogs were happy and healthy when I got them back from Hailey. She was flexible when my flight was delayed. She picked them up and dropped them off at the times we agreed on. I recommend and will be happy to use her services again. ?”


4. Emily W.

“Hands down my new sitter for Nala, she was very attentive with my sweet puppy, she was very on top of everything for Nala and just have her so much love along side with her pups, this was my first time using rover because I am very nervous with leaving Nala with strangers but Emily is no stranger, definitely book her!! She’s a star sitter for a reason!! And she keeps you updated every minute she can and constantly sends photos, loved every moment of this”


5. Patricia L.

“Patricia was fantastic taking care of our two dogs. We have two big golden retriever's and she handled them with ease and made us feel very comfortable leaving them with her. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures that were sent to us, it was easy to tell that they were happy and having fun!”


6. Anna K.

“I booked with Anna on kind of short notice. She was very responsive and we were able to set up my dog Howie’s stay with her quickly. When dropping Howie off I could tell he was at a good home with a loving family. Anna sent updates every day and Howie seemed so happy with his stay. When I picked him up he almost didn’t want to leave. My experience boarding with Anna was amazing and I’d recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a nice place for their dog to stay. Thank you Anna! I’ll be sure to use you again for any future travel plans.”


7. Christopher & Karen T.

“Karen and Chris took great care of our fur babies. One is a senior dog and he did great. They updated us with photos everyday. It was a nice vacation for our pups who had a blast.”


8. Julie G.

“Julie and her family were great! Very accommodating and friendly. They sent pictures and videos of Archie during his stay. Very thoughtful. We hope Archie can visit again soon and run around their big yard.”


9. Rachel H.

“Rachel and her family are excellent sitters. I know my dog is well loved when he is there. He came home exhausted, which is a good sign of fun and playing. I recommend her for your pet’s needs!”


10. Jane M.

“Jane is wonderful with Oliver, our 4 year old labradoodle. She treats him like her own dog. She’s very loving and patient. She is easy to work with and always eager to please. Oliver is very relaxed and happy when we pick him up, unlike when we pick him up from a noisy kennel. We will be using her again and again.”


11. Dianna E.

“Dianna was incredible! Our pups were well looked after and had the best time! She gave daily updates and I was reassured by the photos and updates! Could not have been happier with her service!!!”


12. Laura B.

“I am very fortunate to have found Laura! Based on her "About" info and all the great reviews, I felt my dog would be well cared for. We had a great first meeting with Laura which solidified my decision to hire her. Drop off was easy because of our first meeting. She had excellent communication! She sent pictures, messages and responded promptly to any messages I initiated. When I picked up my dog, she(my dog)was happy to see me and my husband but not eager to leave. That’s a good sign to me that she felt safe and was happy there! I 100% recommend Laura and hope she's available next time I need her.”




13. Tammi K.


“Roscoe had an amazing time with Tammi. He is a stubborn, curious hound but Tammi was great with him. She showed us the place and we felt completely comfortable leaving Roscoe with her. She sent us pictures and updates during his stay that showed how much fun he was having. He is a high maintenance dog and has a ton of energy but she was able to care for him perfectly. He came home happy and tired, which is exactly what we wanted. Tammi is great with all dogs and did an amazing job caring for our pup. Would absolutely recommend her and I will be booking with her again in the future!”


14. Karen T.

“Karen was a fantastic boarder for our two dogs! She always replied promptly and sent several photos of our pups having a blast in her home. She was able to accommodate our geriatric dog with her medication needs and our high energy puppy's needs equally.”


15. Karen K.


“Karen is extremely friendly and provided a safe environment with lots of attention to our senior Italian greyhound Sophie. She sent us updates and really made the whole experience reassuring. Would definitely recommend her as a doggie caregiver. Cannot thank her enough.”


16. Payton M.

“I was in town for a funeral and needed a place to board my cat. Payton was available and was able to watch him for about 8 hours. She kept him in a comfortable space away from her pets and even sent me a photo to assure me that he was adjusting to the surroundings. I would highly recommend Payton to anyone wishing to board their pet in the Northern Kentucky area.”


17. Amanda & Mike T.

“Amanda and Mike are awesome!! They truly care about your fur babies when you are away and treat them as their own. I did not worry one bit while my girl was with them. I have found my new fur babysitter!”


18. Dana T.
“Dana was wonderful! I had never left my fur baby for longer than a night or two, and I was so nervous! Dana took care of him as if he were her own. Haku loved playing with her two dogs, and playing in the fenced yard. Dana handled giving his anxiety meds like a pro. She sent me pictures while I was away and made me feel confident that Haku was in good hands. I’m sure he would love to stay with Dana and friends any time!”


19. Kelly H.

“Dobby had a great time when he stayed with Kelly! She gave frequent updates and I could tell she genuinely loved having him there, which made me very happy. Would definitely book again!”


20. Rachelle S.

“Rachelle is an amazing provider! She is compassionate, confident and runs her doggy-business as a skilled professional. Her dog, Buster, is as loving as Rachelle is! Perfect companion for King while being away from home. We enjoyed the daily updates on how King was doing and this allowed us to enjoy our time away. King came home to us healthy and happy. The comfort of her home and massive fenced in yard was a highlight. We’ve already rebooked for our next trip!”
