Deb is fantastic! Maci was well cared for and was a little under the weather when we dropped her off, and she returned home happy and eating well. We are new to the area and feel relieved to know we can travel in the future and have a great sitter for our fur baby.

Sophia was amazing! She was very flexible about drop off and a last-minute booking with only a few days notice. She sent daily pictures and our pup was loved to pieces and had very attentive care. We have used several Rover sitters with positive experiences and Sophia will definitely be our new go-to!!

Angel was great to work with. Our dog came home happy, she provided pictures during our trip, and even met us off the Interstate to pick him up and drop him off. That made it so convenient! We will definitely use her again!

I have so many beautiful things to say about Mary and her family! You can see the love in that house from the start, and she was so understanding about the personal needs of my dog. My dog was a rescue and can be easily intimidated, which makes her a little edgy, but she was given the space and love she needed, and seemed to thrive at their home. She sent photo updates and kept me in the loop the whole time, which allowed me to relax and enjoy the trip I was on. When I got back, my dog didn’t even seem like she was anywhere but home. She was such a happy girl. I’m so so so so grateful I found Mary!! I’ll be taking a trip next month and will definitely use her again. Really can’t say enough about her. Such a positive experience! ❤️

About: I have loved dogs since I was a kid. I mainly have experience with smaller breeds such as Maltese, Shih tzu. I also have experience with labs. I will be home daily so lots of cuddle and play time. My yard is not fenced but we do live out in the country and have a big yard. I do have 3 children one who is in school and a three year old and one year old. I am currently a stay at home mom So I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Would rarely be away from the home more than 2 hours. I offer in home pet care we treat dogs like family they are allowed on all furniture in all rooms. Frequent supervised outside time and play time. My dog is crate trained.

Taylor and her family took wonderful care of our Cookie. We had a meet and greet a few weeks before boarding to make sure her Boxer Oakley and our Frenchie Cookie got along; they played for almost an hour! Her two kids are the sweetest and they really enjoyed caring for Cookie over the weekend. Taylor sent daily updates and pictures, which we really loved and appreciated! We would definitely recommend Taylor and try to book again whenever we cannot take Cookie on trips!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in preschool. My family has always had lots of pets throughout the house all through my childhood! I have lots of experience in giving baths, medicine, lots of cuddles and care! I will be sending plenty of pictures so you can see what your pet is up to at all times! I am currently working for myself while also working from home. This gives me all the time in the world to be just as attentive as you would be to your fur baby! I currently live in a nice neighborhood with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and open space for walks/jogs. My house is large enough to keep small dogs and larger dogs separated to ensure there are no accidents.

Crystal was able to accommodate us even though it was a last minute request for Thanksgiving week. When I dropped off my dog, her daughter was really excited to see her. Then she sent me pictures with her kids reading to my dog on the couch.
