“Sabrina did a great job caring for our two dogs! She was communicative, paid attention to all the little details with caring for them and sent several photos and videos throughout the stay which put our minds at ease. Her little pack of dogs also made friends with ours and made them feel comfortable as well. Would definitely board them again at her home.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Blaze! From the moment I dropped off my dog, I knew she was in loving, capable hands. She treated my pup like family, going above and beyond to ensure she was not only cared for, but pampered — like a true spa treatment! What really stood out was her attentiveness and care. She helped identify the root cause of a skin irritation my dog had been struggling with, which no one else had caught. Thanks to her insight and care, my dog came home not only happy and relaxed but also with a shiny, clean coat and noticeably healthier skin. She sent me daily photos and updates, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was such a relief knowing my dog was safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m beyond grateful we found Blaze!”

“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”

About: I have personally cared for dogs for over 30 years. We are a family of five who enjoyed having two dogs in our home for over five years. Due to a recent relocation, we had to rehome them. Our kids truly miss having dogs and would love to care for yours with walks, playtime, affection, and plenty of rest, making sure they feel safe and comfortable while in our care. Pet care fits very naturally into our daily and weekly routine. I work from home three days a week, and my wife, Shannon, is home full time as a stay at home mom. Our kids are home from school in the afternoons, so there is almost always someone present to give attention, supervision, and care. We are all available throughout the weekends, which allows for plenty of time for walks, play, and companionship. We are very careful, detail oriented, and affectionate in how we care for pets, whether in our home or a client’s home. We follow routines closely, pay attention to each dog’s personality and comfort level, and prioritize safety at all times. We know what it feels like to trust our own dogs to others through Rover, and we take that responsibility seriously. Our goal is for every dog in our care to feel safe, loved, well exercised, and able to rest comfortably.
“Carrie spoiled Coco and Chewie for us while we were out of town from Feb14-16. My fur babies couldn’t have been happier. Carrie provided plenty of photo updates daily. She even gave them the cutest presents when I picked them up. I would completely recommend her to anyone who needs her services.”

“Reginay was amazing in taking care of my 2 year old energetic dog Canelo. He immediately felt comfortable with her and in her home. She sent pictures regularly that reassured me that he was well taken care of and happy. I’ll definitely be booking Reginay going forward. Canelo loves her!”

“Anessa and her family were great with Indigo! Indie seemed very happy during her entire stay and I felt she was well cared for. She also loved the huge yard to run around in, and got along well with their own dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Anessa again!”


“We couldn’t be happier with the service Matt provided. He was super kind, professional, and kept us in the loop about Duke. He even sent photos of our dog which really helped us feel more comfortable being far away for a short time. Matt was also very flexible with time as we had some delays for pick up and drop off. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants their dog to feel loved and safe while away. 10/10!”

“Fenway loves staying here! He gets all the attention he seeks and loves, daily walks, and a wonderful yard to smell and explore. Deb and John are attentive, treating him as if he were their own.”

“We dropped Dakota off for a short three day stay, and these two were great! They were very communicative throughout the entire process, and provided lots of pictures and relevant updates. They were very flexible with our drop off and pickup times. Dakota CLEARLY had a great time with them, and we would not hesitate to use them in the future if the need arises.”


“Patti & Joe are absolutely wonderful pet sitters! This is the first time I’ve used Rover, and it worked out perfectly. I didn’t worry about my little Pomeranian Pedro the entire time he was with them! I highly recommend Patti!”

“The best care ever!!! I was very pleased with the care and love you provided for my baby princess and you made sure everyday to send me updates about him and that made me very comfortable and happy to know that he was in good hands.Thank you very much!!”

“Adrienne and her son Akiro were amazing!! They took great care of my cat Poppy. In fact, I'm kinda jealous cuz Poppy misses them! Overall, it was a very safe and welcoming environment for my cat and I could not be happier. Adrienne also sent updates with photos of Poppy, which i enjoyed a lot. Job well done for sure <3”

“Alyssa was amazing! Our dog Finnigan stayed with her and her family for 12 days and it was our first time away from him for that long. She reassured us with photos and texts on the regular so we knew he was happy and safe. He fit right in and felt at home with her and I’m so grateful! She took such good care of him. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a wonderful dog sitter.”

“Ann took care of Hexy for a week while we were on vacation. She regularly updated us on how he was doing and sent us pictures. Herxy had a great time staying with Ann- he got a lot of attention and love and Ann made sure that he was safe- which was the most important to me. I know that he was happy there - as when we came to pick him up - he was happy to see us but he also went to Ann and her husband for affection and pettings - which included to me that he was happy with them. I would absolutely recommend Ann as a dog sitter/ for dog boarding.”

“Derek and his family were so hospitable to Winnie. They sent many pictures and were very responsive with any questions asked. This was my first time using rover and Derek and I will definitely use their services again.”

Lily did a great job at keeping me updated. She listened to my instructions and didn’t make me feel like she didn't understand. It felt very nice to not have to worry about my dog while I was out myself. She was very nice and I would recommend her to others and will book again in the future. Overall I was very happy with everything and am glad I chose her
