“Elizabeth and her husband, Josh were excellent caretakers for our pup, Huxley. He was so well cared for and ready to nap from all the fun he had once he returned home. We will reach out to them again when we need care.”

“A couple of weeks ago, I had to leave town for two weeks due to work, and I had my sitter at the time cancel the day before I was set to leave town. I had never used Rover before, but I found Melissa and Jonathan on the app at the last minute and decided to give it a try. Despite the short notice, they immediately agreed to a meet-and-greet that same night before I had to leave. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and understanding from the very beginning. Their space was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for my pet’s needs. Throughout the entire stay, they kept in touch with me on a daily basis by sending updates and pictures, and they were always quick to let me know if they had any concerns. I am very grateful that I was able to trust them with my pet, especially on such short notice and I would happily have them care for my pet again in the future. They are a hardworking, wonderful, and loving family, and I highly recommend them!”

“Bill was amazing watching our hound, who can be anxious. He had great communication and sent plenty of pics throughout her stay. She seemed very relaxed when we picked her up! Will be using his services again.”

Anna F.

“Took very good care of my babies while staying at his place. Was very resourceful and patient when my Pickles decided to play the hiding game and then started getting agressive. I appreciate Roy for watching and keeping my babies safe during the day.”

Krys M.

“This was my first time using Rover and Sean did a great job. I have two large dogs and had concerns with leaving them at another persons house. We completed a meet and greet, walked the dogs and agreed we would complete the booking process. Sean did a great job of communicating throughout the visit and made sure both of my dogs got plenty of time outside and plenty of walks. Sean went above and beyond for my pups! Will definitely book with him in the future.”

“Shelby has a love for dogs where you need not worry about your fur-baby in her care. She opened her home and her heart to our little dog. The pictures she sent during our away time, let us know that JoJo was content and happy. Administering his medication was no problem for Shelby. As an added bonus, she had washed his bowls and laundered his blanket and packed ready for pickup. We sincerely recommend Shelby’s home for your dog’s vacation while you are away!”

“Penny and the whole family are super sweet and perfect to watch your dog my dog Sherman warmed up very quickly and even slept with her teenage son. Definitely will use them again because I have busy work weeks at times. Sherman is a bit much sometimes when he sees other dogs a bit reactive but Penny kept an eye on him and never went out without his leash and collar and made sure all dogs weren't out. He had a blast came home and ran around like a puppy again. Will definitely be using her again.”

“Dan was amazing ! I could tell by the pictures and videos that Neghan really enjoyed himself! He had a lot of walks and potty breaks. I would highly recommend Dan. She is outstanding !”

Javese S.

“We decided to take a last minute weekend get-a-way and was in a pinch to find someone to watch our two doodles. We reached out to Lori and she responded immediately and were able to set up a meet and greet with her dogs. She was absolutely amazing and we could automatically see her love for dogs. She sent us pictures while we were gone and responded promptly when we checked in. She has definitely gained a repeat customer 🙂”

Holly D.

“Nelson was amazing. Valentina was treated very well. They kept me informed and sent me videos of Valentina. I will be booking Nelson again in the future.”

Shawn C.

“Sharon did an excellent job watching our senior dog! She and her dog Wesley were super friendly and extra accommodating. Sharon sent frequent updates & pics and even bathed him one day when he needed a refresh. Sharon’s yard is perfect for dogs, very safe & fun to explore or sunbathe. Sharon also plays relaxing music for your dogs. Talk about a dog-cation!! You will not be disappointed booking Sharon, she is a highly skilled Dog Sitter and great with humans too!”

About: I have many years of caring for my own cats (Jack & Jill growing up, and my foster cat Bucky now) as well as lots of experience dog-walking and home-sitting throughout college. I absolutely love making new friends with your pets and am happy to provide them less time alone or in their kennels I still have full-time work to accommodate (from 9am-3:30pm), but I work remote and am able to be flexible. I am available most evenings and weekends. Unfortunately my apartment makes me unavailable to provide care for pets away from your home. I look forward to caring for your pets in your yards, neighborhoods, or local dog parks however. I don't object to taking pets for a car ride if they enjoy those as well

“Valerie was absolutely amazing! She kept us updated on Champ’s daily activities with pictures and messages, which gave us a peace of mind. She is truly an angel on this earth. Champ absolutely loves her, and that says everything. I will always and I mean always book with Valerie. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Champ!”

“This is my first time having Stephanie taking care of my dog while I'm out of town for 3 weeks and I'm very glad I did it. Before I commit anything Stephanie is very considering and patient to set up a meet & greet to ensure it will work out. Stephanie also sent me updates and pictures so I can see my dog is doing great without issues. I would definitely recommend Stephanie to my friends or anyone looking for dog boarding.”

Fei W.

“My dog had a great stay with Melody while I was out of town. She sent multiple pictures and provided me updates throughout each day. I would definitely let her watch my dog again and recommend her to friends and family!”

Jenna G.

“Libby was great about sending pictures so we knew Deacon was having a good time. Will definitely get in touch with her about keeping Deacon the next time we are out of town.”

“Amanda was very professional, I was very nervous leaving Sir. Winston who is deaf and partly blind. Within a few minutes of watching Winston get yo know his two new friends I was satisfied of the chose I made. Amanda took any photos of Winston during his two day stay and keep good communication between us during the stay to easy my loneliness while missing Winston. I will use Amanda for all my future boarding needs and look forward to many more stays. Looking for a great dog boarder who is professional and loves dogs as much as you do; then look no further Amanda is your choice.”

“Mariah is great! She cares for your dog like its her own! I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her and plan to continue using her in the future!”

About: Welcome! We're the Phenix family—a family of six (plus our two sweet dogs!). We understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a big decision, and we strive to provide a safe, loving, and fun home away from home. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means visiting dogs are rarely left alone for more than a few hours and have plenty of opportunities to get outside. Safety is one of our top priorities. Our spacious backyard is fully fenced with a secure 4-foot wrought iron fence, giving dogs lots of room to run and play. We know some pups are talented escape artists, so our gates are secured with locks, and every guest wears an AirTag during their stay as an extra precaution—just in case we have a little Houdini on our hands! Our 2 resident pups are Athena (a Collie) and Lulu (a Beagle mix). Both are 10 years old, gentle, and experienced hosts. We've been dog sitting for over 9 years, so they're very comfortable welcoming new furry friends into our home. They're great at reading other dogs' body language and are happy to play or simply give visiting dogs their space if that's what they prefer. To keep everyone happy and healthy, all dogs are fed separately to prevent food-related conflicts, and we only give treats and food provided by each owner to help avoid upset stomachs or dietary issues. We look forward to welcoming your pup into our family and treating them like one of our own while you're away! Our day starts with dogs being let out to go to the bathroom at 6am then breakfast. We have had some late sleepers stay with us, so we do adjust for our sleepy friends. Dogs have access to the backyard whenever they would like and we have plenty of dog toys for them to enjoy. We are happy to accommodate any feeding schedule, so we can keep your pup as close to their normal routine as possible. We have a fully fenced in yard with locks on the gates. Since we know some dogs are great at escaping, we have an air tag just in case.
