“Kylie did a wonderful job dropping in on our cats during our week long trip! We met beforehand and she made sure we were comfortable. She really paid careful attention to detail—disposed all litter and food cans so I didn’t come home to a stinky mess. Swept up scattered litter, and even took care of the trash bins. Over the years we’ve had friends and family members, and sometimes paid neighbor kids to watch our cats while we’re gone. This is by far the best experience for all! Thank you so so much!! We will definitely be booking other visits with you in the future.”


“Jadyn did an amazing job checking on our pups! She communicated very well, and made sure our dogs were well taken care of! This was our first time using Rover and she made this a very pleasant experience!”


“As an ER veterinary technician and and Rover pets that are myself, my standards and expectations for the pet sitter of my own pets is high. Not only did Kristin meet those standards,, succeeded them. I got plenty of pictures, updates and communication fromher all throughout the week. Needless to say we will be using Christine again.”


“Guadalupe was great to work with, and did such an amazing job dropping by to take care of Axel while we were at work. She was always on time, and we would absolutely recommend her to take care of your furry family member!”


“Melissa was great with my dogs. We were gone parts of 4 days and she came twice a day to feed and walk them. They're a handful and she handled them just fine. They were in good health and spirits when we returned and that's what we wanted. Would definitely use Melissa again in the future.”



About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. We grew up on a farm with 3 dogs and loved them to death. We love all dogs, all sizes. We own 2.5 acres where dogs can run and play and have an extra large utility room for grooming. Our family includes my wife and myself, our three kids and Scout, our furry baby rescue from Houston. She loves to play in the water and run with friends. I work from home so I get lots of time to play ball, walk, run and care for your furry loved one. I most enjoy throwing tennis balls and watching the dogs play chase. We have spent more money than we would like to admit, in order to best care for pups in our care. We have a 1200 sq/ft dog house with A/C, water, toys, large play area and kennels of various sizes. We are committed to providing commercial equipment to put safety as a top priority, while still offering the quality of care provided through residential boarding. We look forward to meeting dogs of all sizes and breeds. Hope our doggy retreat is as fun for your dog as it will be for us.

“Jennifer and her family watched our 3 Huskies for me and my husband while we went out of town for 2 nights and they did such an amazing job watching them and taking care of them while we were away. She always let me know when she was on the way or here at my house to let me know she was about to let them out and sent photos of my dogs to me when she was there. They were loved on and spoiled while we were away. I definitely recommend Jennifer to anyone and everyone who needs someone to watch their pets while they are away. Jennifer is AMAZING and I will be using her from now on when I need to go somewhere or if I need my dogs watched.”
