1. Makayla S.

“Makayla was awesome! She was a trooper and agreed to watch Evie through the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, without power, mind you. She communicated well, sent pictures, and was an absolute professional throughout.”




2. Joe & Celeste S.

“As with the last sitting, my dog Sweetums had a wonderful time with Joe and Celeste. When we dropped her off for this stay, she knew where she was and was excited to stay. Sweetums is 4 months old but she remembered from her last stay the doggy door they have. She ran back and forth a few times like this is cool. Now I'm going to have to get a doggy door LOL. They treat her like she was their own. And I swear she grew an inch in 4 days. Thanks Joe & Celeste”

“Smitty always comes home well loved & tired. He’s one happy pup when he’s with Jill & her dogs! I would recommend her to anyone who needs their pup taken care of.”


5. Amanda O.


“Amanda was wonderful. She was so accommodating and great communication. My two Shelties are seniors and she did a wonderful job with them. They seemed right at home and I got adorable pics of them. Amanda is such a sweetheart and has a true love for animals. We look forward to our next visit.”


6. Jacklyn S.

“Jacklyn was awesome with my pups - she was super flexible and communicative, and I could tell she really cared about getting the important details down about my pets' care. She sent adorable pictures and I could tell my dogs were having a super great time while we were away. We'll be back - thank you Jacklyn!! Would highly recommend her.”


7. Freya K.

“We were so pleased with the care Lola was given I think she really enjoyed her stay. She came back more spoiled than she was when she left, lol but I love it that lets me know that she was well taken care of. I would definitely use your services again if needed. Thank you so very much and Lola thanks you too!!!?”


8. emily c.

“Emily did a great job in sending regular updates with pictures. Brock had a great time at her place playing with Emily's dog. Thank you for doing a fantastic job!!”


9. Craig M.

“Craig was great!!! Quick responses, easy drop off and pick up, and sent us regular pupdates while we were on vacation 😊 Thank you so much again, and we'll be in touch next time we're going out of town!!”


10. Gloria A.

“Gloria is awesome and her place is a perfect little doggy haven. She has a big fenced yard for the pups to run around, and a nice, filtered cold water system to keep them cool as things are warming up. I like that she just has one small dog so my Jackie doesn't get intimidated going to a "zoo." We did a meet and greet beforehand, and I had no concerns about leaving my anxious little baby with Gloria.”


11. Jody R.

“I needed to board my 11 month puppy due to work travel and came across Jody on the Rover App. She is an amazing person who loves your pet like her own. Sadie felt right at home the moment l dropped her off. Jody shared videos/ photos and updates about my puppy while l was away for work. She is extremely responsive and just a delight to work with. I would highly recommend Jody to anyone needed their fur baby taken care off in their absence. Thank you so much Jody. God bless.”


12. Brittany S.

“Brittany is the best to do it, 5 stars is not enough to justify how great of a job she did. She took such GREAT care of my little guy that I thought he wasn’t going to want to come back with me. She’s very responsible, loving, great communication, and has a great environment. All around does a great job and highly recommend, I have 0 complaints. She is my go to from now on.”


13. Kirk & Joy S.


“My boyfriend, Matt, and I, Cate, would recommend that everyone request Anita and Kirk before they go to anyone to watch their dogs!We were on our first vacation away from our 11 month old Australian Shepherd and the original dog boarder was not at all what we expected. Long story short we needed to find not only a different dog boarder, but a person who would be willing to pick him up on such short notice from a stranger's home until we could get home from our vacation. Friday afternoon Matt reached out to Kirk and immediately got a call back from him. Without any hesitation they went and got Tucker from the other boarders' house and took him in. They welcomed him into their home, and made him so comfortable that he wanted to sleep on their bed!! We received pictures, videos, and updates throughout the 3 days they had him without us having to ask them for it. When we went to pick him up on Sunday morning they gave us feedback that we wouldn't have known about had we not gotten Tucker out of his comfort zone. Being with these amazing dog parents, we discovered his separation anxiety from us. His behavioral patterns while we were away were picked up by them and they cared enough to talk to us about it. These are honest dog lovers. Their yard was spacious and fenced in which is perfect for our active pup. All the thank you's in the world wouldn't be enough for all that they did for us and Tucker. We feel 100% at ease knowing that this family will be our go to for Tuck!”


14. Tabatha P.

“Tabatha was very accommodating and made Vader our cat very welcome in a loving environment, I received pictures and messages of how Vader was doing during his stay with her, it made my vacation even better knowing he was in great hands. Will highly recommend and will leave my baby again if needed”


15. Lauren L.

“Lauren was excellent! I could tell my dogs were well taken care of and happy when I came to pick them up. Lauren was also very flexible with my schedule which I appreciated”


16. Luciana & C V.

“Best babysitters ever! A wonderful place for our puppy Beverly to stay. After several stays, our pup gets just as excited to see Luciana as she does when we pick her up. We love them...”


17. Maria D.

“We had booked a Rover sitter who canceled on us last minute. So we had to scramble and find a new pet sitter with very short notice. They say when one door closes, it’s for a reason, and the next door is better. Maria was heaven sent! She was amazing from beginning to end. We didn’t know her but she has this friendly energy that makes you and your pet feel like family. She took such good care of our 15 yr old senior dog. When we arrived at her home she was affectionate with our dog and gave us a tour of her backyard and kennel room that was very clean, had nice dog beds, and dog toy galore. She asked the right questions on care instructions and sent us many pictures and kept us updated on our dog’s well being. We highly recommend Maria. Wish she lived closer to our home. If we are in the Myrtle Beach area…we will definitely book Maria again. Maria, Thank you for taking such great care of Gypsy!”


18. Mary B.

“I didn’t worry a bit about Mosby during his “vacation”’ with Mary. She’s kind, quick to communicate, has a lovely place with a fenced in yard, and Mosby and her Rylee had the same laid back temperament with one another.”


19. Lorie G.

“Lori and her husband have been fantastic. Our first time allowing someone to keep our Bully. She has kept me up to date with text messages, pictures and videos. Already set up more boarding with her in the future”


20. Bella R.
“I have known Bella for a very long time. She is a very responsible and mature, young adult. She has been a babysitter for my dogs several times in the past and they love her. She is very reliable and watches my sweet pups very carefully. I am very particular about who I let inside my home and with my pets while I am away, but I have no worries with Bella. Would highly recommend her!!”
