1. Corey & Robert D.
“Corey and Robert suggested we do a meet and greet play date before our corgi stays with them for an extended visit and we’re so glad we did! It gave our dog a chance to get acclimated to their house and we picked her up full of wiggle butts and smiles! She had a great time playing with the other dogs and Corey kept us updated throughout the visit with pictures and notes! ☺️”

“Arlene pup-sat our lovely 3 month old puppy, who came home happy and tired. I would recommend her for all ages. She is a warm, caring person and I felt that our pup was in good hands.”
3. Karina M.
“1st impressions is everything. It was Friday and we needed a puppy sitter on Sunday for Kira. Our first time using Karina and she took our Kira with open arms and a smile. Taking care of Kira included not just feeding and potty breaks, but also socializing with her dogs and a couple of videos of play time. THATS LOVE! Highly recommend her for puppy/dog parents who want a pleasant experience for that special member in the family. When we took Kira home, she was so exhausted from the fun she had with the other dogs, she was asleep for the rest of the night.”
4. Brie B.
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Brie, and can’t recommend her enough! She took care of our dog Beef for the day and went above and beyond in every way. Beef had the best time playing and came home utterly happy. Brie was super communicative, constantly sending us adorable photos and updates throughout the day. One of the highlights was the charming Polaroid picture she gave us of Beef playing with his new best friend, Hank. It’s clear that Brie is not only passionate about dogs but also understands how to connect with them and provide a fun, safe environment. We are definitely looking forward to using her services again. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring to look after your furry friend, Brie is the perfect choice!”

7. Rick R.
“Rick is an excellent human being who loves your dogs almost as much as you do. He’s taken care of all 3 of my dogs at his home w loving care. It’s such a relief knowing your precious dogs are in his care . I feel zero stress leaving my dogs for extended periods when I travel. My four legged children just love him . What stands out to me is the constant contact . He sends pictures and texts before I even ask which means a lot to me. I have referred him to numerous clients and all feedback has been beyond positive. Your pups are in fantastic hands and you won’t be disappointed in choosing him for boarding/sitting. Sincerely Andrea”

9. Tanya A.
“Tanya was terrific! She was friendly, reliable, and compassionate. She bonded with Tator almost immediately. It is so reassuring to know you can trust her to take care of your pet as if it were her own. You won’t go wrong having Tonya care for your pet. She is truly an awesome human being.”

11. Camille S.
“The best Rover caregiver! We feel so lucky to have found her! Camille sincerely enjoys having our pup stay with her. She welcomes him into her home and treats him like family along with her sweet dog Rosie. Our dog enjoys a stress-free day being at home and part of a second family, taking leisurely walks along their quiet tree-lined neighborhood, sniffing for squirrels and rabbits in the park, indulging in play with Rosie anytime he wants in her grassy back yard along with songbirds to boot. What more could a dog ask for? We couldn't be happier having our dog stay with Camille. Thank you!”
