“Jennifer is hands down the best dog sitter! She made our Sadie girl feel like she was at home. She spent her time exercising Sadie throughout the day and snuggled with her at night. Sadie doesn’t eat very much when we go out of town, she ate each night she was there! That’s how I know she was comfortable. We will be booking Jennifer for now on! I can’t say enough nice things about her!”



“Cyndi was awesome! Kept both of our 100+ pounders and never flinched! They were so happy with her I thought they may not want to come home! We will definitely be booking another stay with Cyndi!”


“Matt was wonderful! He checked in daily with pics and updates. He always answered quickly and was super flexible. Can’t recommend him enough and will definitely use again!”


“My boy had a great time at Amber's house. He came back happy and tired; definitely got some much needed outside time, socialization, and cuddles. It was easy to coordinate drop-off and pickup, and I received updates and pictures during his stay.”


“Shakita was great! My dog who is normally very shy was comfortable and extremely happy while staying with Shakita. He had an amazing time playing with the other small dogs. I could tell by the pictures she sent everyday :) I will definitely be booking with Shakita again!”

“My fur-child Jetson had a great 4 day stay at Julie"s place. She kept my mind at ease by sending lots of updates and pictures while he was in her care. She also was great at making sure he stayed on his medication and letting me know exactly how she was handling his anxiety and health concerns. I was so comfortable with her care of him and will be sure to book her again in the future!”


“Moose always loves staying with Michelle and her sweet pup, Milo! He gets excited when he recognizes where we are and I always know Moose is in great hands!”


“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”


“Took amazing care of our dog. They were great at communication and sent updates and pictures to let me know Cooper was doing well. Getting ready to use their service again today!”


“Kelsi was fantastic! She kept us informed through messaging with photos. Our little Frenchie was equally excited. If you love your pets, Kelsi is a great option to care for your fur babies!”


“Mila had a great time! Peyton (and company) were very accommodating for a last minute need. I received updates with pictures showing what a fun time Mila had.”


“Highly recommend, best Rover I’ve ever used! My shy dog Fresa had an absolute blast and was very comfortable. Jennifer’s updates are consistent and very responsive.”


“This is our third time using Krystal to watch our cat, Horace. She’s always so great with him and I know he’s well looked after in Krystal’s care. We will continue to use Krystal for our cat care needs in the future and we’re so glad we found someone we can rely on and trust! :)”


“Liz is fabulous! She took such amazing care of our sweet girl. Our dog loved her after the first meet and greet! Liz was great about communicating and if we are ever back in the area we would use her in a second!”


“Riley was absolutely wonderful with my cat Toby! She sent me pictures and videos of him every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was very accommodating to his needs and so sweet with him. I could tell he was comfortable and happy in her care. Would absolutely recommend boarding your cat with Riley — she’s the best!”



“Randi is a real dog lover. she was excellent with our dog, Theo. he was only 7 months so we were concerned about how he would do with others. our concerns were removed with the meet and greet. Randi has a loving environment setup at her home with a nice big back yard for Theo to get a lot of exercise. she and her family were great with Theo and he had lots of attention, (which he likes). we received many updates and photos. Theo was there for 5 days a week for 4 weeks. we'd absolutely have Randi watch Theo anytime.”
