The "happy dogs" enviroment Miriam has created is perfect for our very social Husky Keesha and her playmates. Each stay is like an extra long playdate for her. Now it will take a full day of sleeping it off for her to recuperate. Excellent!!

David took great care of Birdie! She was very happy and healthy when I picked her up. I would highly recommend David and hopefully he will be available in the future when I need someone to watch her!

This was our second booking with Daniel, and it was for almost a week. My dog remembered him and was so excited to be back that he didn’t even say goodbye to me! Daniel sent lots of cute pictures while I was away, and I could tell when I picked my lil guy up, that he had been well cared for and felt at ease there. He also had a couple other dogs to play with, so that was nice to see. When I had an emergency on the road, Daniel gladly let me book an additional night and I was so appreciative of that. Thank you for the incredible service!!!

This was our first time booking through Rover.com and we couldn't be happier. Shawna & Ethan were great. When we met them, it was clear to us that they are dog lovers. Their home is in a lovely location and very dog-friendly. They have an established routine with their own dogs, and it is very much like what our dog is used to. While we were gone to attend an out of town wedding, they sent us pictures of our dog and the activities they were all doing. It was so nice, because we knew he was happy and we didn't need to worry about how he was doing. We will definitely book with Shawna and Ethan again when the need arises. It's a relief to have your pet taken care of by someone you trust rather than a kennel where they are basically ignored. Five stars for Shawna & Ethan - would give them more if that was an option.

Ron is a truly wonderful dog sitter! I experience a lot of anxiety whenever I travel and have to be away from my little Echo. I felt tremendous relief after Ron sent me photos of Echo in his home and beautiful shaded and enclosed yard the morning after I dropped him off. He looked so happy and confident! I knew right then I had nothing to worry about. Ron took excellent care of Echo and sent me lots of updates and photos all throughout his 10-day stay. It was clear that Echo bonded with Ron and loved staying with him and his two pups, Canoli and Lily, because I had a hard time getting him to come back home with me! He refused to allow me to put on his leash and instead walked away and plopped himself right down on one of the dog beds at Ron's house! Echo didn’t want his vacation to end, either! I highly recommend Ron and will definitely book with him again!

Water and John were very good with communication and took care of my girl like she was one of their own. It was my first time leaving my newly adopted older dog at a sitters, and I knew she was going to have some ptsd and worries of abandonment, but my girl ended up relaxing and enjoying her time with Water and John. I appreciated the pictures and daily check ins. I’ll definitely be using them again!

Our Happy has stayed with Sheila several times now and it is always a wonderful experience for both him and us. She is a great communicator, both before (to work out details) and during (sending us updates with pictures and/or videos) during his stays. He and Sheila's own pup Jaxxon have become great buddies and Happy (who is frankly more of a people-pup) actually gets excited to see him!

Christina and her dog were so pleasant and took very good care of my two Chihuahuas. I even had to call and extend my trip for an extra day and she very kindly worked that out for me. She sent me photos of all three dogs having fun, and that was great! I would recommend her without reservation!

I needed a boarding for a couple of nights for my dog, Kinako, at the very last minute. Jessica and her family were very accommodating to my request. When we had a meet in the evening before, I had a faith and I knew they are the ones! Kinako immediately made herself comfortable at their home. Their dog is sweet and friendly. They made friends with each other right away. While I was away, it was great to see the update picture, and I felt at ease. When I picked Kinako up, I could tell that she had a wonderful time at their lovely home. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Kinako and I are looking forward to the next opportunities.

Christina was awesome. She made sure to keep me updated on him throughout the two days Negan was there. Also sent a bunch of pictures. She requires a meet and greet at her home which I think is a great idea to make sure it was a good fit. I was able to see that her home was safe for my boy. He absolutely loved it. Especially all the cuddles. Would definitely use her services again. He definitely had a great time here.

Cameron and Tyson are fantastic and took such good care of my rambunctious catahoula while we were on vacation. I hope to use them for future overnight/ boarding for both my fur babies ☺️. Not only did Jackson have a great time, they managed his care instructions to a T and I had zero stress about his stay for the entire time we were gone.

Stephanie and her husband took amazing care of my dog Teddy! In the past, he has always gotten diarrhea and hotspots when I left him, but this time he didn’t. He also has medical issues and was given all of his medicine and kept happy and safe. I was also sent picture updates! Stephanie clearly has lots of experience taking care of animals and I highly recommend her!
