“Emily and Tim were great to leave Lenni with! They were very communicative and sent great updates. Lenni came back happy and wiped out after playing all week with the family and dog. It was great knowing Lenni was able to run around all week in a fenced in yard. I'd definitely reach out to them in the future for similar requests!”


“Hollie was AMAZING! My girlfriend and I have a 60 lb lab mix who's only ever been comfortable in the care of my parents or really close friends. He has a bit of separation anxiety and takes a while to get used to new surroundings. He also takes medication and can be a handful when it comes to taking walks. We tried him previously at a boarding service, but they never gave us any updates. So we were rightfully worried while we were away. When we picked him up from said service, he looked distraught/anxious. When we asked how he was, they just said he was sweet without any details of his stay or any off behaviors. The service also didn't use the portioned food we brought and forgot to pack his meds in the care bag we provided. We left our little guy with Hollie for 6 nights, and there was a world of difference. Firstly, Hollie was generous enough to host a meet and greet so our dog could get comfortable with her and her home. Hollie was very accommodating to our requests and quickly helped our guy settle in. She was super consistent with updates and went out of her way to make the entire experience wonderful for both us and our dog. Hollie really cares and will go that extra mile for any furry friend under her supervision. We'll gladly seek out Hollie again for boarding and can't begin to recommend her enough!!”


“Trudy really takes care of our dogs… coco was very happy spending time with Trudy and Archie( Trudy’s dog ) .. she had great time over there .. Trudy used to send photos and videos of coco everyday .. we would love to send coco back again any day…”


“Karen and Aaron were absolutely wonderful with our lab-beagle mix Jazzy! They are clearly dog lovers and shared pictures with us throughout the weekend. We appreciated their great communication from beginning to end since we were new to Rover. Jazzy got so much fresh air and exercise she slept for a whole day when she got home! We highly recommend them and Jazzy can’t wait to visit them again soon!! A+++”


“David and Nicole offered a safe and welcoming space for our hound over the Memorial Day weekend! They provided reassuring updates and were very responsive. We will definitely keep them on our list of sitters!”


“Deborah was so caring and was a great dog sitter. My dog needs medicine twice a day for Cushings disease and Deborah handled it well. I also received some pictures and saw that my dog was very happy. I can’t say enough good things! Very pleased with my dog’s care from her.”



“Mike was great! He watched our baby while we were getting married this weekend and his help took so much stress off of us knowing that Paulie was in good hands.”



“Lynn is an animal lover and just gets dogs. Our pup had a good balance of alone time and opportunity to play with other dogs one-on-one. Thank you Lynn for watching Indy at the last minute!”

“Abby was fantastic! Juni got along great with her two dogs and she loved the fenced yard and the clean, quiet home. Abby was great with sending photos and videos and everything from the meet and greet to the pickup was well organized, clearly communicated, and professional. I will be using Abby again!”



“Robert did a great job with my geriatric dog. He got her to go for a longer walk than we've been able to lately, and was patient with her enough to accomplish that. He also sent lots of great pictures of how she was doing. Thank you for the great care!”


“Kristen and her family helped us out over a weekend. Her young girls have a lot of energy but she kept and eye on our Leo to be sure they were good with him. He sleeps a lot and they let him do that. All evidence was that Leo was cared for.”


“Michelle & Brian were wonderful. They were very patient at drop off as Hiccup was getting used exploring the house and they provided tons of photos for a simple one night stay. Hiccup loved all the attention and care.”


“Lan is very communicative and flexible. My dog Dottie seemed to have a great time. Would use again. LAN’s home was warm, clean and friendly. Also she had a nice fenced in yard.”



“Topsy is spectacular. My dog Lily is an attention seeker who enjoys walks and being petted. Lily enjoyed her time (4 days) with Topsy. The day after I picked up Lily she was very excited to return to Topsy’s house fora quick drop off of an item. I cannot recommend Topsy enough. She and her family are wonderful.”


“They do a great job with our two very different dogs. The picture update messages while we are gone are much appreciated! We intend to keep our dogs with them going forward.”


“Kathleen was amazing and took such good care of our 5-month-old puppy Bos'n (aka Boats). We were just a few days ahead of leaving for a vacation and were feeling uneasy about putting him into a boarding situation for the first time. Kathleen was quick to respond to my initial message and we scheduled a meet-and-greet for that night. She was warm and friendly and took notes as we discussed his schedule, habits and quirks. We felt 100% confident leaving Boats in her care. I loved that she sent frequent updates and LOTS of pictures so I could see what he was up to (which was having lots of fun playtime with her sweet dog, Levvy, and enjoying subsequent nap times!). I also screwed up the pickup time and she was understanding and accommodating, which I appreciated since I was out of state so couldn't get there any earlier. Lastly, she left a sweet thank you note and printed photo in with Boats' bag, which I thought was a sweet and classy move. I will DEFINITELY be asking Kathleen to watch our fur baby again!”


“Our Percy had an amazing stay with Kirsten and her family! He had a blast playing with Ramsey and was sad to leave. We loved getting updates and photos from Kirsten while we were traveling. We will definitely be booking with her in the future when we need boarding assistance again.”


“Elyse and her family are awesome! My normally quite anxious dog had a great time with them, and seemed happy as can be the whole time! Thanks Elyse!”


“My dog enjoyed her stay so much! They have a nice yard and have experience with many types of dogs! My pug was able to play with the other dogs and sleep in their bed and had a blast. Will definitely use them again!!!”


“Thank you for taking such great care of Murphy while we were out of town! We loved getting pictures and updates and felt confident that she was loved and relaxed the whole visit. Will definitely book again in the future!”
