“Michelle and her family have been a godsend to our family. Not only have their family been wonderful to work with, our dog gets treated just like family while there. Her son has even formed a special bond with our dog. I highly recommend her and we won't ever look back at doing the typical dog kennels again!”
2. Krysten E.
“Krysten and her family were so great with my dog! Her kiddos even played fetch with my dog and kept her busy. I really appreciated her picture, and even video while I was away. My dog is somewhat timid but as soon as Krysten opened her door my dog was off and felt welcomed in for her stay, thank you!!”

7. Kryz F.
“Our dog Ralph stayed with Kryz for about 3 weeks, and by the time we picked him up - I was surprised to see he wasn't ready to leave them yet! He had such a great time. She has 3 very sweet dogs that were welcoming of Ralph right away. It was obvious from the pictures and videos she sent that he was having a blast with her and her family. Kryz was quick to respond back to us and made our vacation worry free! She’s the ideal host!”
8. Lindsay P.
“Lindsay and her family were fantastic with my pup!! I was hesitant with the idea of leaving him with a family I didn’t know, but I was instantly relieved upon meeting them! They were so kind and so willing to accommodate anything my puppy needed to feel at home. The daily pictures and text updates were reassuring to know that he was doing well. Lindsay was also flexible with pick up/drop off times which takes some of the stress off traveling. I will definitely be reaching back out to Lindsay for any future needs for my pup.”
9. Samantha B.
“Sami did an amazing job! She was great about making our dog feel comfortable and even met up ahead of time to ensure our dogs got along well. She communicated and sent frequent updates throughout the stay. I know our dog was well cared for and we would certainly recommend her in the future or use her again when needed.”
10. Christina B.
“Tala seemed well taken care of and very happy when I picked him up. He slept all the way back to my home state and was such a happy boy. Christina did very well and would highly recommend having her watch Tala or any other pet!”
11. Jayne L.
“Jayne and her family were great with Kira and welcomed her so warmly into their home. She sent daily updates, which I appreciated... and most of all, when my travel was significantly delayed, they were so gracious and accommodating. I highly recommend Jayne and will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
12. Melisa M.
“Melissa was wonderful with Sylvie. Melissa kept us up-to-date with Sylvie's schedule & activities. She provided pictures of Sylvie playing and sleeping. Highly recommend Melissa for your dog sitting needs.”
13. Angi W.
“Gabby had the best time for her stay away from me. She received excellent care with Angi. I received pictures of Gabby every day and Angi filled me in how she was doing. Angi said she was a very good girl. Thank you Angi. Jeannie”
14. Delilah & Nicholas H.
“They were very nice and kind. It seemed our dog had a good time with their dogs and they were very friendly. They seemed to love being around dogs, and also let our dog sleep in bed, which is a plus for us. Unfortunately, our dog had accidents inside the house which he hadn’t had for more than 4 months with us, of course, it made me upset to know that because we tried to train him well, I know it was frustrating for them to deal with that but I would appreciate more messages about how he’s doing in general besides a lot of messages about his accidents. Overall, I know they were probably stressed about our dog not behaving well, but I don’t know if our dog was only confused about the new place and routine for a few days too. The couple is very nice, I recommend them, but maybe wait until the dog is for sure trained to poppy outside.”
15. Melissa M.
“This was our first time booking with Melissa and our dog would be there 9 days!! She was very welcoming and took great care of our dog. She sent me daily updates, pictures and videos. Our dog got along great with her two dogs. I would highly recommend boarding with Melissa!!”
16. Zach C.
“Zach was great and put all my anxieties at ease!! Instantly knew my dog was in good hands with him. He updated me with pictures of my boy and his communication was great! Would 100% recommend him to anyone!”
17. April N.
“April was a wonderful doggy sitter. She was very sweet and I could tell she enjoyed her time with our dog just as much as our dog enjoyed her time with April and her family. We loved getting the updates and felt confident that Kyra was in good hands so we could enjoy our time away. We already have plans to book with April again this fall. ❤️”
18. Parker J.
“Our first time using Rover and we hit a home run with Parker and her pup, Mowgli! ! Our dog, Nellie, was so well cared for and came home tired and happy.”
19. Jeremiah M.
“Great communication, sent photo updates. She was able to go to the park and on walks, lounge on the couch and sleep in bed! Ruby loved her stay with Jeremiah. Would definitely book again.”
20. Elly S.
“Elly and her family toom care if our puppy Bessie and did a wonderful job! They welcomed her like she was one of her own. This was our first time leaving her so we were nervous but she kept us updated each day with updates and multiple pictures. We really appreciate how well taken care of she was and how much they loved her in our absence. I would highly recommend Elly and we will use her again when we need a sitter!”
