Anne Marie was so great with Chespi! She was available to do a meet n greet before our time although she was extremely busy. My dog doesn't always cuddle with a sitter on the first night, which assumedly means she's trustworthy and caring. I'll definitely rebook again.

Leonard and Kathryn are the absolute greatest dog sitters that we’ve ever had! We’ve used their services twice, and have never seen our two boys so happy during their stay there. Leonard made sure to always keep us informed of how our two pups were doing. He sent us daily pictures of our pitbull Meaty and our Daschund Ike enjoying long trail walks by their house, and pictures of them enjoying a nice snooze on their couch and with their family. I am always nervous to send Ike to boarding as he has some behavioral issues, but Leonard and his family were great at giving Ike the space, time, and love, he needed to adjust while we were away. His two girls were incredible with Ike, and he always looked so happy in the pictures with them. This is a top notch boarding place for any parent who needs a place for their dogs to be watched. Your dogs will get fun walks, cuddle time, and constant attention. 5/5 stars and would absolutely recommend! Nicest family I’ve ever met on Rover!

Bridgid was phenomenal. Our dog is standoffish with new people, but by the end of two days with Bridgid he didn’t want to leaver her. Her years of dog ownership really show and she projects calm, confidence, and flexibility. She handled a complex med schedule like a champ and truly went above and beyond. She may be new to Rover, but don’t let that fool you - she is truly one of the best you will find.
