“Magen went above and beyond what I would have ever expected and was so thoughtful and kind. I love my dog but she’s not for everyone and I’m so glad Magen and her family took care of her like family. I will, without a doubt, book with Magen again. She allowed me to relax, knowing she was in good hands and still sent me photos, videos, and feedback often enough that I didn’t go overboard missing my favorite friend. I would recommend Magen to anyone looking to book.”



“They took amazing care of my fur baby! Carolyn was incredibly thoughtful and went above and beyond to keep us connected to our pet while we were away from him. They treated him like family which meant the world to us. We will definitely request them to care for our baby again next time we need a sitter! 100% recommended!!”


“Karen and her family were great! They sent frequent updates/pictures and Mabel seemed to love her stay. She was happy and at home when we went to pick her up.”


“Took very good care of our pup. We even got a video update while we were gone so we knew she had settled in well. Beautiful clean home with kind welcoming people where you know your pet will be taken care of.”


“Excellent care for my dog who is anxious about staying apart from her owner overnight. The dog returned tail-wagging happy and did not follow me around anxiously, as she often does after an overnight away. I would highly recommend Daina.”


“As always, Rachel, her family, and home are wonderful. Our fur babies had a great time and made new friends. Rachel kept us posted and sent plenty of cute photos of our little ones. We're so happy we found a staycation home for our pups when we travel.”


“Carissa took great care of my Nala. Nala hurt her leg a few days before we were going out of town and Carissa was very willing to give her the extra attention she needed! She will definitely be hangout out with Carissa again!!”


“It doesn’t get better than Josh! We love sending our 1.5 year old pup to stay with him and his family! Our pup always comes back happy and fulfilled!!”



“We had the most amazing experience with a family that definitely took care of, and loved, our two dogs. The updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day were great as well to see how much fun they were having. Thank you so much!!”



“Steve could not have been more timely with responses during the interview process and throughout our stay in Kansas. He willingly accommodated our requests for drop-off and pick-up time changes for Barkley. Every night we picked up a happy and exhausted dog...one who went immediately to sleep. Steve proved to be trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely kind to dogs, cats and babies. We certainly recommend Steve and will definitely be using his services again, when in Lawrence, KS.”


“Nicole has been an excellent sitter for Roland. Fantastic accommodation for our family Rottweiller- young kids to play with, a huge yard to play in and lots of cuddle time for Roland. Nicole is so kind and thoughtful. Highly recommended- Thank you!”


“Karrie and her husband took good care of Macy. They honored my request to keep Macy separate from the larger dogs they were watching. They also sent lots of pictures, which I loved!”


“She took wonderful care of my dog who is deaf and has severe separation anxiety. She was so patient and understanding. It was a comfort to know our dog was in good hands while we were gone.”

“We just used Rover for the first time this last weekend. Our pup gets overwhelmed at doggy daycare so I was looking for an alternative. I came across Natalia and all her positive reviews, so I reached out. She responded quickly and was so accommodating. She was very sweet and I immediately felt comfortable with her. She kept us up to date to let us know our girl was adjusting well and having fun. I could tell when I picked her up that she had been well taken care of. We will definitely book again!”


“Griffin and Gloria are awesome!! They sent plenty of updates and pictures, putting us totally at ease! Our dog was very well taken care of and seemed to thrive in their care!”


“Leslie and her family were amazing! She sent pics and updates daily. She spoiled our girl and made us feel at ease in her care. We will definitely use her again and refer to all our friends!”


“Matt was very good with our girls while we were on vacation. When Ginger developed kennel nose, he was able to treat it and return our dogs to us happy and healthy. He is a TOP NOTCH sitter.”


“Shelly was flexible with our dates when we had to extend our dogs stay. She is always so kind and easy to work with. Our dog loves being at her house!”


“Short stay or long stay, Bailey A. is the best! From the meet-and-greet to a 2-week stay she has been a careful and considerate hostess for our dog Bailey (no relation, lol).”
