I was so worried about leaving my boy all day he is a bit of a mommas boy. Emily kept my updated through out the day. She also reassured me and my anxiety about leaving him. Wyatt definitely came home happy and that is all I can ask for.

Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel. I also liked that her sons gave my pets attention while they were there. 100% would recommend Maggie to anyone!

Caroline was awesome! She sent updates throughout the visit and sent cute pictures of Rondo! She took him for a walk and played with him throughout the day. He came home a tired and happy puppy :) I’ve already booked rondos next stay with Caroline.

Paige was WONDERFUL! Very communicative and personable. She asked that I come 15–20 minutes early to discuss Dakota's routine, ask any questions, and tour her home and backyard. It made me feel super comfortable, and I appreciated her willingness to help. I will definitely book with her again!

Melissa went above and beyond while taking care of my dog Amaya. She is an excellent caring person. I was nervous about the process because it is my first time on Rover. She helped me so much and put my mind at ease. I wholeheartedly recommend her.

About: Denim Sheperd Dog Care is looking to provide you with excellent dog services at an affordable price. With a huge backyard for running and indoor dog spaces for play, your dog is guaranteed to have a great time! We are a house of dog lovers plus 3 pups of our own, with 2 cousin pups staying with us! Our pack leader Austin has been an amateur mush dog trainer for two years with plans to compete in 2026. He is great with dogs of all sizes and has a heart for all breeds. What got him into dog training for others was E-collar training 2 of our dogs himself after having our husky trained professionally. This gave us the freedom to adventure with our pups the way we longed to. We have been doing basic grooming for our labradoodle for 3 years, nail trimming all of our dogs' nails for 5 years, and bathing them for nearly 7 so your dogs will be in loving hands if they are in need of some pampering! I'm currently a full-time at home parent and dog dad. My schedule is flexible with advance notice, but for our daily schedule I do biking with my husky, playtime in the back yard, and the pups nap or have hangout time in the dog den! I have a garage for grooming and introductions, then two gates used to separate the dog areas from the rest of the house. Within the dog area is a finished basement and den if dogs need to be separated. At this time, I have 2 crates of different sizes for use if needed or desired. The backyard is fully fenced and great for runners to get out excess energy.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have experience training large breed rescues for service and emotional support. I’ve had two senior rescues as part of our family. I work part time from home so I have plenty of time and attention to give your fur babies! I’m available for boarding daily and overnights. I care for pets the same way I care for my own—lots of love, gentle structure, and a cozy home environment. Dogs can relax, play, explore the yard, enjoy snuggles, and follow their normal routines. I’m home often, so your pet gets attention and supervision throughout the day.

My girl Kona absolutely loved Holly! Holly gave her all sorts of opportunities to play and explore, and gave Kona lots of attention. I could tell that she gave Kona the same care and attention that I would. I highly recommend letting your puppies stay with Holly!
