“This was Chloe’s first stay and I see more stays in the future! She was great with Chloe and I really appreciated that she sent me pictures without being prompted! A+ 10/10”

“Jamie was flexible with drop off/pick up schedule and sent updates during stay. My anxious dog seemed very comfortable with her, thanks again for taking care of Clover!”

“Savannah is extremely caring. Communication with her is really easy. She did her best to accommodate our request in the last minute note. The only thing, I did not have updates about our dog unless I asked.”

“Katy was a fantastic dog sitter for my two hounds. From beginning to end she was helpful and caring, sending pics throughout the stay. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Thank you for always taking such good care of Gully! He always comes home happy and ready for a long nap. 🐶 thank you for watching him while we went to Florida as well. He gets so excited now when we pack his crate and bin. 😊 I always appreciate the pictures too!”


“Julie and Joe were fantastic with my Snoopy. Snoopy had a anxiety problem and they were so warm and taken great care of dog. They sent pictures and our family loved to see that he is doing great and having fun at their house. I highly recommend them and will book again with them!”
“Fantastic pet sitter! I have a very stubborn and specific elderly dog and after talking with her once, I felt completely confident that he would be well taken care of. I received multiple updates throughout my dog’s stay, and she was even gracious enough to allow me to pick him up after midnight. Everything went smoothly and I can tell from my dog’s stay, as well as the sweet attitude of the other animals in her home, that this is a very loving place for pets! Thank you very much!”

“Cairo had an amazing time with Nayoma! It was so reassuring to know that he was receiving such great care and attention while I was traveling, we will definitely be back!!”

“Amanda provided wonderful care for our senior dog. She was very proactive, learning about our dog’s personality, needs and quirks before meeting us. She was very accommodating, helping us with drop off and pick up so that we could better manage our flight schedules. She sent us pictures pretty much each day and it helped to know that our pet was being lovingly cared for. Our dog came back calm and well rested. We would definitely consider having Amanda take care of our dog again. Thanks Amanda!”


“I am grateful to Ryan for taking care of my cat Sookie. Ryan was attentive, reassuring and so caring.... sending pictures that showed how Sookie had adapted well and was taken good care of. I totally recommend Ryan to take care of your pet, giving you the peace of mind you need when you are away.🩷🐱”

“Adaora and Cairo made my dog Bo feel right at home and she put my nerves at ease every step of the way and sent me lot of pictures which I loved!! I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”


“Kristen helped us out with our big teddy bear, a lovable but high energy boxer/pit mix, when we were visiting from out of town. She was very responsive and flexible, meeting his needs and leaving him one happy boy! Will definitely utilize her again when we’re back in town. Thank you, Kristen!!”

“If you need someone fantastic to board your dog with, look no further! Becky is super communicative, attentive, and kind. Her home is lovely and safe, with a fantastic backyard, and the sweetest golden retriever whom our dog adores!”

“I can’t recommend Kathy enough! She hosted my dog (Maple) for two nights and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kathy is very experienced, a great communicator, and clearly loves dogs! Her home is so welcoming and my Maple had a wonderful time going for nature walks and sunbathing in the yard. If you’re looking for a home away from home for your pup in the Portage area, I highly recommend contacting Kathy.”

“Daryle was available very last minute for us when other plans fell through. Their home is very dog friendly, as they have two large dogs of their own. Good communication, easy transaction, our dog came home happy.”

“Sarah was great! We had an emergency that delayed us and Sarah was able to accommodate that for us at last minute. We were so thankful. We would definitely ask her to watch Hermes again.”

“Reed and Natalie always do a great job with taking care of my puppy. He comes home happy and tired, and the pictures and videos they send of him having fun and being played with are reassuring and heartwarming. If I could give extra stars, I would.”

“Best experience! This was our first time using Rover and it couldn't have gone better. Our dogs are our children and we are overly cautious when it comes to leaving them with anyone. Paige gave me an instant good feeling. She is highly experienced, educated, and caring. She sent pictures & updates which was so comforting. Mabel, reluctantly, came home wiped out and is listening better, win win!”
