5. Carol S.

“Carol watched our Hansel for 3 days/2 nights. We were impressed from our initial meet & greet at Carol's neat, organized home. Her demeanor and experience indicated that she would provide excellent care for our pet. We received daily updates including photos that all was well, and Hansel was being his usual sweet self. At pick-up we found our boy happy, and ready to go home - we are confident he had an excellent experience with Carol. We are happy to have Carol as a resource for our future pet sitting needs.”

14. Courtney D.

“Courtney was a godsend!!! We had a last minute trip and she was our first choice and available. We have 2 dogs and this was the first time being boarded for my puppy. She welcomed them into her home and they both were instantly comfortable. I hate leaving them, but she also made me feel very comfortable. I was also at ease with the photos and videos that she shared throughout the day. My little ones seemed to be so happy and were having so much fun. They were getting so much attention and it was as if I had already known her for years. I could not have had a better experience with boarding for the first time or using rover for the first time. I won't have to look any further for someone to take care of my babies whenever we travel. Top notch!!!”

“This was our second stay with David and Liz. Bailey seems to have adjusted very quickly to the comfortable environment and friendly/loving home. It was so cute to see him walk over to David to say goodbye when I picked him up. Of course, the daily videos are a big plus while away. They let you know your pet is in good hands. Thank you David and Liz!”


18. Yvette T.


“We couldn’t have been more pleased with Yvette! Our Kirbie loves being with her and the environment she provides. Yvette sent us videos and photos with updates throughout the day. We have already booked our next session with her.”




19. Patricia M.


“My pug enjoyed her time at Patricia’s and came home just as happy as when we left her there. There was no adjustment period for her when she came home. We were very happy with her care. Patricia sent us pictures while we were away and kept in touch. I would definitely use her again and would recommend her!”


20. Caitlyn Q.


“Caitlyn did a great job with our dogs. We have 2 dogs with totally different personalities and needs. We were worried that one of them wouldn't get along with the other dogs. Penny is the more sociable of the 2 and had plenty of fun with the other dogs. Bubba is a rescue who takes a while to warm up to people and can be aggressive to other dogs. Caitlyn recognized and made sure that each dog received the attention they needed. She kept us up to date with daily pics and video. We will definitely use her in the future.”
