“Crosby had a great time staying with Kat. Kat was very welcoming. Her home and yard are set up perfectly for hosting dogs. Kat was very friendly, professional, and caring. Crosby got lots of loving attention and plenty of opportunities to play and go outside. Kat took very good care of our dog and we would definitely request for her to host Crosby again.”

“First time for us to use a Rover sitter for vacation. Very happy with the updates that Rae and David provided. So grateful our two girls had a dog friendly home instead of scary boarding kennel! We will be choosing David and Rae to care for them again our next trip!”
“If I could give her 6 stars I would (RECOMMEND) she will love your fur baby like it is her owns her and Luxe are a heavent sent combo so yes BOOK with Julianne my Gabe misses her already ❤️”
“Chris, Erika and family made my Ellie part of their family during my 2-week trip to Africa. I could travel across the world knowing that my Ellie was in good hands. They communicated frequently and sent pictures throughout the 2 weeks. Being about 18 months old, Ellie needs to burn off a lot of energy and it was blistering hot and humid while I was gone. But they took Ellie on a good walk early every morning before the heat hit. If you want your dog to feel like they are in a home away from home, a stay with Chris, Erika and family will do just that. Thank you for your attentive care that allowed me to thoroughly enjoy my trip abroad.”

“We are very thankful for Diane and her pup Lulu for watching our pup on Christmas Day and evening. The experience was so much better for us and our pup than dealing with a kennel. Diane was pleasant and responsive throughout the entire process and even took a photo of our pup laying on the couch with her daughter. Thank you Diane for being available and taking good care of Peanut.”

“Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra”
