6. Alice W.
“Alice is nothing short of amazing!! We’ve never boarded our dog before and I was looking on rover for someone and found her profile. We did a meet and greet at her house. Our pup Jax took a little bit to warm up but after that he was fine! Alice is very kind, informative and worked with our schedule. We needed someone for 10 days. She also had no issues with his eating schedule. While we were on vacation she kept us informed on how Jax was doing. She also went out of her way to make sure we were having a great vacation as well and told us not to worry one bit. Her home is very cozy, clean and welcoming. She has a lot of room for any pet to roam around. She also has a great sized back yard which Jax loved. We will most definitely always contact Alice when we need any babysitting or boarding services! I think Jax would’ve stayed longer if we would’ve let him. :) We could tell Jax was treated exceptionally well and he had a great time. Thanks again! Jen&Casey”

8. Amanda J.
“Amanda and her family are amazing. Always go above and beyond and will love your pet like their own. My dog has some health issues, and they have never hesitated to give medicine and even coordinated with my vet while I was away. It's as close to a home away from home as you can get.”

“I really like Ashleigh taking care of Beamer and he loves being there. She will notify you if she notices something wrong or anything unusual going on with him. This is the second time I have used her to watch Beamer and he is always happy when I pick him up . Very trustworthy and I believe that he is very comfortable with her . I usually tip her when I pick Beamer up , but I do owe her $10.00 and will take it to her today . Just did not have enough cash on me from getting back in town on Sunday.”
