“Our dog Frida just finished her second boarding visit and loved her time with Brit and her family. It’s truly a home away from home for her. We got daily photos and updates. We have an older dog with diabetes and Brit was so helpful in being able to assist her in her feeding/medication requirements. Frida adores Brit, her family, and their dog and we look forward to using their services again moving forward!”


“As first time puppy parents and first time Rover users it was extremely difficult to leave our pup with anyone else. Suzanne made the entire process extremely easy and comfortable for us. From the booking and flexible arrangements to a slew of happy pictures of our puppy Eloise smiling and playing with her and her family made us feel extremely comfortable in our decision and allowed us the peace of mind to enjoy our getaway. We will not hesitate to use Suzanne again for any of our boarding needs in the future. Thank you Suzanne for loving up on our pup for us!”


“Brittany is amazing. She literally will treat your pet like her own and spoils them like they should be ❤️ I know my husky loves staying with her and she is my go to person! He even got a toy for Christmas. He gets so much exercise and love. Thank you Brittany!”


“We went on a 16 day trip out of the country and we knew Marley was in safe and caring hands. We got regular videos which reassured us he was happy and having a great time with the other dogs. The best review was when we were eating at an outdoor restaurant patio and suddenly he started to wag his tail like crazy! I was trying to think of who would cause that type of reaction, and it was Shannon and her husband! We will definitely be going back to Shannon.”


“Our dog stayed with Erica and Thomas & family for 2 nights. We were given updates throughout the stay. This was appreciated as it was his first time there. A beautiful countryside home with a big yard and drop off and pick-up went smoothly. Marino will be back.”


“Liz and John couldn’t have provided better care for our dog, Wiley. It was superb attention to Wiley and keeping us informed of her activities. I would recommend Liz highly. She is the best. We will certainly use her again.”


“If I could give 5,000 stars I would… Elizabeth and her family are absolutely wonderful! I have never used Rover or left my fur babies with a stranger before and needless to say, I was a MESS! We had a family trip in Ohio we couldn’t miss and Elizabeth watched our new/rescue 11 month old American Bully Huey! Elizabeth was wonderful from the time we met and even when I dropped him off crying my eyes out with anxiety! She sent photo updates constantly, they treated him as if he was their own, giving him all the love and attention!! He got to play with their two pups, kids, and enjoy there wonderful fenced in backyard! They walked him and even spoiled him with a car ride to get a pup cup! Huey pretty much was on his own fun filled vacation! Elizabeth even went as far as to drop him off at our house and safely crate him the night we flew in, so he could be home when we got home. This was wonderful! She even offered to take our other dog out for a potty break when she came over to drop Huey off. She is absolutely wonderful, I have nothing but the most amazing things about her and her family! I truly can not thank you enough!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Hopefully we will be seeing you soon and Huey can visit!”


“Laura was excellent. She has a wonderful home for dogs and it almost felt like dropping my pup off for summer camp. He came back looking happy too. Laura was friendly, punctual and asked good questions on how to take care of my dog.”



“Jessica is the BEST DOG SITTER EVER. I was nervous about finding someone to look after my energetic puppy while I was away but as soon as I met her and her dogs I felt at ease. She sent me amazing pictures of my pup and I knew”

“Madison is fantastic. She just watched my two spaniels for a week and they were spoiled rotten. She is patient, kind and treats them like they are her own. My pups loved her and loved playing with her dog Jack too. She sent regular updates letting me know how my dogs were doing which was very much appreciated! Thanks so much Madison. We will be using her a lot in the future!”


“Our dogs stayed with Coy for 9 days over the April vacation. They seemed to have an amazing time. We were updated about them with videos and texts about the dogs. Coy was very knowledgeable about my texas heeler and has given me some helpful tips for her training and the overall health of our dogs. I highly recommend Coy”


About: I’ve had dogs for 30+ years and now I’m retired with no dogs so have room for yours. I am gentle and playful as well as responsible and active. I do not take cats, sorry. I watch our daughter’s dog on occasion but would not watch him at the same time. I had a lovely chihuahua for 16 years, and a husky, as well as a fluffy white mixed pup, all healthy and happy and had their senior years with us as well. I’m retired and home all day doing eBay and other hobbies. I also take daily walks and would take your dog out often as well. I have a large fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I am also home a lot and allow the small dogs to jump up in my lap and furniture.

“Thank you Tina for taking such great care of our dog Zoe. She is skeptical of most new people but took to you and your family quickly. We enjoyed our time away knowing that Zoe was so happy and cozy with you!”
