“Amy was wonderful with our two dogs! She very clearly spoiled them. I can tell by the pictures that they had a great time. Especially out in the back yard! She was also very accommodating with our schedule which was very much appreciated!”

“Tatiana was a great host for Wallace! She was so kind and came to the rescue in short notice. Would highly recommend her to anyone with a dog who loves kids and would definitely repeat.”


“Barrie was great with our son, Shapley! She did a great job of communicating and sending pictures to make us feel extra comfortable while being away from him. You can tell she really cares about these puppies because she even let Shapley sleep in the bed with her. We would definitely recommend!”

“Danielle is the absolute best, and I’ll hear nothing to the contrary. This was my first time using Rover, and the sitter I originally booked cancelled on me morning of, but Danielle accepted our last minute request on a holiday weekend. I have an old dog with arthritis and medication who can be a picky eater at times, but that was no issue for Danielle. She not only made me feel at ease with constant updates and pictures, but she exercised and socialized him, and he may like her more than me now. My only regrets with this review are that everyone else will book her now and she’ll be unavailable next time we need boarding for a weekend”

“Harold was great and Benny seemed happy to stay with him and the family! He sent many pictures and was very easy to communicate with. I will be asking him to babysit again.”

“Cody was awesome! Received daily updates with pictures and videos. Exactly what this mom needed! Charlie seemed very happy and enjoyed the other dogs. Will be using Cody again!”

“Ray is an excellent sitter. He accepted by request because I had a last-minute out of town trip. He took very good care of my puppy. It kept me posted with pictures. I will definitely be recommend him and will be using him again if needed he gets a 10 out of 10 for me”

“Amiee was fantastic. She gave us updates throughout the time our pups were with her. Our dogs seem so happy and loved watching all the squirrels on her beautiful property. Highly recommend.”


“Kmya was awesome! Very responsive and kind. My cat had a good time and was safe. Kmya sent pictures of my Lil fur baby without being prompted. I'll definitely tell everyone about her!”

“Falone was great! She was very flexible and understanding with our drop off and pickup times. The dogs had lots of walks, and we recurved so many photos! She even went to the store to grab the exact dog food we forgot. Literally a lifesaver.”

“Katherine was so sweet and made sure to keep me updated. I told her that this was my first time boarding Lu privately, so she made this SO comfortable and I got a bunch of super cute pictures out of it!”

“Brittney was awesome! She sent lots of photos and kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout her stay! Remi came home tired and happy! Brittney even got her to eat most of her food which Remi can be weird about in new places! Would definitely recommend her to a friend and will definitely be using again!”


“Marcie LOVED spending the week with Kelsey and her dogs. And from the pictures I could tell she was spoiled rotten and we will absolutely book her again. I am hesitant to post a review because I don’t want her all booked up when I need her!”


About: I have owned dogs my whole life and when unable to in college I was a frequent foster mom to up to 3 dogs at a time! I love going on long walks and will take the time to play and cuddle with your pup as well! I'm currently working a flexible schedule and able to work during with weekdays and weekends upon request. I typically go for long walks 3 times a day in the early morning, early afternoon, and early evening. Of course outdoor playtime is a must as well with frequent bathroom breaks for young pups! Dogs are welcome to sleep in crates or if not crate trained let me know what your dog is used to as we want them to feel right at home! I have a big fenced in yard and a one year old dog to keep your puppy company! I am able to go on long walks or play in the backyard depending on your dogs age and needs.
“Libby had a clean home, spacious space for Grey to stay & updated us with text & pics. She has a fenced in yard on the side & fenced in deck for the pups to play/relax safely. Grey was well taken care of & if we are in the area again we would rebook.”

“Jonathan and his family were great! We will definitely be requesting them as a new regular. Very friendly, helped us out and allowed us to extend our boarding for an additional night at last minute, sent updates and pictures, and made sure our dog had plenty of exercise!”

“10/10 Jordyn was absolutely amazing with our dogs! We have two medium/large size dogs, one that’s a love bug and had never been boarded before and the other one has severe separation anxiety where previous boarding didn’t go well a couple years ago (previous time was with a different facility). From the initial meet and greet, to daily updates and photos she kept up informed but also made our anxious baby feel so loved. She has a beautiful fenced in area and we felt totally safe leaving our babies with her. We would absolutely use her again in the future! Thank you again for keeping our girls and they are already napping in the backseat :)”

Jody was absolutely amazing with our pup! She was a great communicator sending consistent photos during her stay. And I could tell our pup was having a wonderful stay which gave such a peace of mind while we were away. Cannot say enough great things! Rosie is ready for her next stay!
